Bang, bang, Maxwell’s silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Bang, bang, Maxwell’s silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead
Now he’s gone I don’t know why
Until this day, sometimes I cry
He didn’t even say goodbye
He didn’t take the time to lie
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

Boom Boom Boom
Let’s go back to my room
So we can do it all night
And you can make me feel right
Boom Boom Boom
Let’s go back to my room
So we can do it all night
And you can make me feel right
Now you have heard 'bout women’s rights
And how we tried to reach new heights
If we’re all created equal
That’s us too
Yeah!
And now a child can understand
That this is the law of all the land
All the land
Into the heart…of a child
I stay a while…oh, I can go back
Into the heart…of a child
I can smile
I can go there
Into the heart
Into the heart of a child
I can go back
I can stay awhile
Into the heart…
But, here in my heart
There’s a dream that’s unbroken
And it get’s in my way
But it won’t be denied
Here in my heart the door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
Now girl, you ain’t goin’ nowhere in them kinky boots
I’ll eat your heart out like an Aztec, baby, I don’t give a hoot
Mama Mama Mama, ooh pow pow, who’s gonna twist and shout?
I’ve got these heart-shaped handcuffs that’ll really knock you out
I been around the world
I’ve seen a million girls
Ain’t one of them got
What my lady she got
She stealin’ the spotlight
Knocks me of my feet
She’s enough to start a landslide
Just a walkin’ down the street
Wearin’ dresses so tight
And lookin’ dynamite
About to blow me out
No doubt about it can’t live without it
The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm)
The girls got rhythm (girls got rhythm)
She got the back seat rhythm (back seat rhythm)
The girls got rhythm
I’ve been around this great big world
And I’ve seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldn’t wait to get back to the States
Back to the cutest girls in the world
I’m just a gigolo and everywhere I go
People know the part Dave’s playing
Paid for every dance, selling each romance
Ooh, what they’re sayin’
There will come a day when youth will pass away
What will they say about me?
When the end comes, I know
They was just a gigolo
Life goes on without me…
'cause…
I ain’t got nobody
Nobody cares for me, nobody
Nobody cares for me
I’m so sad and lonely
Sad and lonely, sad and lonely
Won’t some sweet mama come and take a chance with me?
'Cause I ain’t so bad…
She said “I wish that I was beautiful, or that you were halfway blind.
And I wish I weren’t so dog-gone fat, I wish that you were mine.
And I wish that you’d come with me, when I leave for home.
For we both know all about loneliness, and livin’ all alone.”
We all want something beautiful
I wish I was beautiful
He wants to dream like a young man
With the wisdom of an old man
He wants his home and security
He wants to live like a sailor at sea
Beautiful loser
Where you gonna fall?
When you realize, you just can’t have it all
He’s your oldest and your best friend
If you need him, he’ll be there again
He’s always willing to be second-best
A perfect lodger, a perfect guest
Beautiful loser
Read it on the wall
And realize
You just can’t have it all
Imaginary waves
Under a made up sky
There’s only time
Forever, forget her
Sailor
Far from the sea
Sailor
Sailor
She is not anywhere
On water land or air
A mirage girl
Forget her, forever
Sailor
Far from the sea
Sailor
Sailor
Angels never know it’s time
To close the book and gracefully decline,
The song has found a tale.
My, what a jealous pool is she.
The face in the water looks up
She shakes her head as if to say
That the bluegirls have all gone away
Sail away, away
Ripples never come back.
Gone to the other side.
Sail away, away.
I’m sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
I’ve got to be free, free to face the life that’s ahead of me
On board, I’m the captain, so climb aboard
We’ll search for tomorrow on every shore
And I’ll try, oh Lord, I’ll try to carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we’ll try best that we can to carry on
A Gathering of Angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this Song of Hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Sailing, sailing over the bounding main
Where many a stormy wind shall blow
'Ere Jack comes home again.
Am I in my cabin dreaming,
Or are you really scheming,
To take my ship away from me.
You’d better think about it,
I just can’t live without it,
So please don’t take my ship from me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I can feel the hand
Of a stranger,
And it’s tightening
Around my throat.
Heaven help me, heaven help me,
Take this stranger from my boat.
I’m your captain, I’m your captain,
Though I’m feeling mighty sick.
Everybody, listen to me,
and return me, my ship,
I’m your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I’m your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I’m your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I’m your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I’m getting closer to my home
I’m getting closer to my home
I’m getting closer to my home
I’m getting closer to my home
