Seems like yesterday I was here
Dreamin’ my life away and drinkin’ beer
Staying up till dawn strummin’ on guitars
Sleepin’ all day long just like the big rock stars
Barely livin’ on money from tip jars
< snip >
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
I had robbed myself of all my precious time
Ah, baby listen now
I’ve made up my mind yeah
I’m tired of wasting all my precious time
You’ve got to be all mine, all mine
Foxy lady
All through the day
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine
All through the night
I me mine, I me mine, I me mine
Now they’re frightened of leaving it
Everyone’s weaving it
Going on strong all the time
All through the day I me mine
All mine, all mine, yeah
All mine, all mine, all mine, yeah (it’s alright)
All mine, all mine, yeah (you know how it feels, you know how it feels)
All mine, all mine, all mine, yeah (it’s alright)
All mine, all mine, yeah (you know how it feels)
All mine, all mine, all mine, yeah (it’s alright)
All mine, all mine, yeah (to be mine, you’re mine)
All mine, all mine, all mine (it’s alright)
Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry,
Go to sleepy little baby.
When you wake, you’ll have cake,
And all the pretty little horses.
I’m not a princess, this ain’t a fairy tale
I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you and your white horse
To come around
This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco
This ain’t no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain’t got time for that now
You pack a bag, you say goodbye
You kiss me on the cheek and look me in the eye
You tell a lie that you will soon return to me
I loved you then, I love you still
And now it won’t be long until you’re here at last
And then I’ll ask if your heart still burns for me
I would travel every ring of Hell
Just to see if you’ll be mine
Merry Sinsmas, know that you are on my mind
Merry Sinsmas, truer love is hard to find
All my bags are packed
Ready to go
I’m standin’ here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin’
It’s early morn
The taxi’s waitin’
He’s blowin’ his horn
Already I’m so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
‘Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Nothing or no-one will ever
Make me let you down
Kiss them for me, I may be delayed
Kiss them for me, if I am delayed
We were out on a date in my daddy’s car
We hadn’t driven very far
There in the road, straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn’t stop, so I swerved to the right
I’ll never forget, the sound that night
The screamin’ tires, the bustin’ glass
The painful scream, that I heard last
Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She’s gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world
Lately,
I’ve been
Breaking glass in your room again
Listen.
Don’t look
At the carpet.
I drew something awful on it.
See.
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love’s gone behind
Step up! Cause you’re the next one in line for the kill.
You don’t believe me but I’m betting that you will.
Step up! I’ll let you live a little bit with the pain that I bring.
You know it’s only the beginning.
I’m breaking the limit inside you!
Stop begging someone to hide you!
I’m breaking the limit inside you!
Stop begging someone to hide you!
I’m breaking the limit inside you!
Stop begging someone to hide you!
I’m breaking the limit inside you!
Don’t run away, bring it on straight to me!
You can kill my body, baby…
You can kill my body, baby…
But you can’t kill me
My lord, I love you…
My lord, I love you…
Remember the warnings
Forget what you’re told
The heart of the temple
Is hollow and cold
The face of the prophet
Is tired and creased
He raises his cup
And falls to his knees
Come take my body
Come take my soul
Come take me over
I want to be whole
Feeling unknown
And you’re all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I’ll make you a believer
Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
You need to confess
I will deliver
You know I’m a forgiver
Reach out, touch faith
Reach out, touch faith
I’m in the phone booth, it’s the one across the hall
If you don’t answer, I’ll just ring it off the wall
I know he’s there, but I just had to call
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in the social graces
Desperately remained at home
Inventing lovers on the phone
Who called to say, “Come dance with me”
And murmured vague obscenities
It isn’t all it seems
At seventeen
Aphrodisiac jacket
Napoleon machine gun
Livin’ on a subway, yeah yeah
From dusk till dawn, yeah
Push baby, push, push, push, yeah…
Sittin’ on a mountain, we’re looking at the sun
Plastic fantastic baby, lobster telephone, yeah
