Little Miss Innocent, sugar me, yeah  
Yeah, give a little more

When I’m alone all by myself  
You’re out with someone else  
Lovin’, touchin’, squeezin’ each other

I know you’re hopin’ to find  
Someone who’s gonna give you peace of mind  
When times go bad  
when times go rough  
Won’t you lay me down in tall grass  
And let me do my stuff

All my life’s blood is slowly draining away  
And I feel that I’m weaker every day  
Somehow I know I haven’t long to go  
Joining them at the bottom of the pool  
Now - I feel they are so near  
I - begin to see them clear  
Nightmares…coming all the time  
Nightmares…will give me peace of mind

Oh yeah  
Oh yeah  
And knowing that you would have wanted it this way  
I do believe I’m feelin’ stronger every day  
Yeah, yeah, yeah

After what you’ve meant to me  
Ooh baby now  
I can make it easily  
Yeah, yeah, yeah  
I know that we both agree  
The best thing to happen to you  
Is the best thing that happened to me  
Yeah, yeah, yeah

When you get caught between the moon and New York City  
I know it’s crazy, but it’s true  
If you get caught between the moon and New York City  
The best that you can do  
The best that you can do is fall in love

Some folks like to get away  
Take a holiday from the neighborhood  
Hop a flight to Miami Beach  
Or to Hollywood  
But I’m taking a Greyhound  
On the Hudson River Line  
I’m in a New York state of mind

On 52nd Street  
We’re gonna throw a little soul parade  
Before they know the second bar was played  
We’re gonna slip it to 'em short and sweet

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere  
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey, hey  
She acts like summer and walks like rain  
Reminds me that there’s a time to change, hey, hey, hey  
Since the return from her stay on the moon  
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey, hey  
Hey, hey, hey

But tell me, did you sail across the sun?  
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded  
And that heaven is overrated?

Wish I knew what you were looking for  
Might have known what you would find  
Wish I knew what you were looking for  
Might have known what you would find

And it’s something quite peculiar  
Something shimmering and white  
Leads you here despite your destination  
Under the Milky Way tonight

I don’t care about your plans and schemes  
Don’t give a damn ’bout your righteous dreams  
All that I do, I do for myself  
I never cared for anyone else  
We have to save them, we have to try  
We can’t just watch while the innocent die  
Let’s steal this ship and start our crusade  
Powerful allies will come to our aid

Seven fighters, navigators  
Intergalactic space crusaders  
Federation, dictators  
No scruples - lethal traitors  
Outriders, invaders  
Intergalactic space crusaders  
Domination, liberators  
Fighting to survive

I don’t give a damn 'bout my reputation  
You’re living in the past, it’s a new generation  
A girl can do what she wants to do and that’s what I’m gonna do

An’ I don’t give a damn 'bout my bad reputation  
Oh no, not me

That girl was a one time teenage drama queen  
A hot, tough everyday wannabee  
But she’ll have changed her destiny  
Now she’s a somebody  
That girl was a wild child dreamer but she’ll find herself  
‘Cause she believes in nothin’ else  
And you’ll look back and you won’t believe  
That girl was me

When you see a hand that’s held out toward you,  
Give it some love, some day it may be you.  
That’s why it looks like everybody in this whole round world  
They’re down on me, yeah.

Lord, they’re down on me, down on me, oh!  
Looks like everybody in this whole round world  
Is down on me.
