Cold and misty morning, I heard a warning borne in the air
About an age of power no one had an hour to spare,
Where the seeds have withered, silent children shivered, in the cold
Now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold.
I’ll be there
I’ll be there
I will be there
Fly boy was in the buttermilk, hard
Livin’ fast, livin’ large, 6 foot 4 and not an ounce of fat!
When women asked, ‘is you a frown Cat?’
He said 'My dear, I’m more that that, I’m the frownest of the frown
And in case you hadn’t known, they call me ‘The Jackal.’
Well, twirl my turban, man alive!
Here comes Mister Five by Five
He’s one of those big fat bouncing boys
Solid avoirdupois!
Well here comes Johnny with his pecker in his hand
He’s a one ball man
And he’s off to the rodeo
Hitler, he only had one ball,
Goering, he had two but very small,
Himmler had something simmler,
But poor old Goebbels had no balls at all.
After the ball is over,
After the break of morn—
After the dancers’ leaving;
After the stars are gone;
Many a heart is aching,
If you could read them all;
Many the hopes that have vanished,
After the ball.
After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
You’ll find that I’ve taken nothing, that
Love can’t replace in the blink of an eye
After the thunder’s spoken, and
After the lightning bolt’s been hurled
After the dream is broken, there’ll
Still be love in the world
Something happened along the way
What used to be happy is sad
Something happened along the way
And yesterday was all we had
And, oh, after the love has gone
How could you lead me on
And not let me stay around?
Oh, oh, oh, after the love has gone
What used to be right is wrong
Can love that’s lost be found?
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
It’s not warm when she’s away
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And she’s always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
Wonder this time where she’s gone
Wonder if she’s gonna stay
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And this house just ain’t no home
Anytime she goes away
Thunder rolls.
When the lightning strikes
Another love grows cold on a sleepless night…
As the storm blows on, out of control,
Deep in her heart…
The thunder rolls.
Oh-oh come take my hand
We’re riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh-oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey, I know it’s late, we can make it if we run
Oh, Thunder Road, sit tight, take hold
Thunder Road
Some times
Great times
Troubled times
Reaching out with my hand
My hand
Some times
Great times
Troubled times
Fire for the times
Ringing out footsteps
Calling out steel-heels
Promised land
Great times in commotion
Here comes every day
It only lasts an hour
Unhappy the land that has no heroes
No! Unhappy the land that needs heroes
So when he tells you you’ve got diamonds in your eyes (he’s just lying)
Don’t get carried away because you know he’s selling you lies (he’s just lying)
So when you get the feeling the man you’ve got’s no good (he’s no good)
Well, just remember, a hero is so hard to find (hero)
Well, just remember, a hero is so hard to find (hero)
Look into his angel eyes
One look and you’re hypnotised
He’ll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angel eyes
You’ll think you’re in paradise
And one day, you’ll find out he wears a disguise
Don’t look too deep into those angel eyes
Oh no, no, no, no
Oh Angel Eyes, you’re never close, who’s got the time?
Well I can wait until your love light
Shine on me
Oh Angel Eyes, on the wing and open wide
No matter now how high your moon
Shine down on me
Angel, Angel Eyes
You look like an angel (Look like an angel)
Walk like an angel (Walk like an angel)
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You’re the devil in disguise
Oh, yes you are
The devil in disguise, mmm
You fooled me with your kisses
You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me
You’re not the way you seemed
Just when you think you’ve caught her
She glides across the water
She calls for you tonight
To share this moonlight
You’ll flow down her river
She’ll ask and you’ll give her
Lips like sugar, sugar kisses
Lips like sugar, sugar kisses
“We will go down we will drown drown deeper down
The river wild will be our last ride
We will go down we will drown drown deeper down
The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town”
Beautifully shy as you are
Never lose your heart
And do come across
