Everytime
02:41
|

Maybe you don't listen when I tell you what I feel
But you, you can be certain that I really have a thing about sex appeal
Do what you like but don't expect my smiling face, smiling face
A charmed life is a luxury and I hope that you can still afford me
If I had a script, I'd show you the part you'd play in my scene
When you told me your life story it read an awful lot like True Confessions
Here's a little secret (I've got my own confession for you)
Everytime I see you, I fall in love all over again
Everytime I see you, I fall in love all over again
So hold on, I'm gone to cover the distance
And if I'm right and you're wrong, we'll split the difference
Always great, and sometimes better
Alway red, and sometimes redder
Everytime I see you, I fall in love all over again
Everytime I see you, I fall in love all over again

Hole in My Head
01:47
|
|||
|
Don't know much about you
Your little black dress and yet such a lady
I don't know what to do
A million other girls and I'm with you (who's taken)
I don't want you to go –
all I know is when you're gone I'm lonely
Don't know much about love
All I know is late at night I'm empty
Now I hope you listen 'cause I'm shouting your way
Got a hole in my head for you, what can I say?
Don't know much about me
You'd think I'd feel regret or something
I don't know what to say
It's not my place to interfere with nature
I don't want you to go
All I know is when you're gone I'm lonely
Don't know much about love
All I know is late at night I'm empty
Now I hope you listen 'cause I'm shouting your way
Got a hole in my head for you, what can I say?

All of My Books
02:22
|
|||
|
My life's an open book waiting to be read
My heart's a hungry mouth
Anxious to be fed
It;s not that no one love me,
it's just no one knows how
If my friends who knew me then
Could only see me now
and all of my friends just stand by themselves
All my words do nothing to help
And all of my books just rot on the shelves
All night long I talk to myself
I need a gentle touch
with warm and tender words
It's very lonely here
wanting to be heard
So if you see me here
Have something good to say
There's nothing left for me
but to hope for better days
all of my friends just stand by themselves
All my words do nothing to help
And all of my books just rot on the shelves
All night long I talk to myself

20th Century Live
02:19
|
|||
|
Don't watch me through a window
I'll smash it in your face
Don't let me see you out of line
I'll put you back in place
I'll push you down and kick your head
if that will make you hear
This is the 20th century
It's time we knew some fear
Well you can be afraid of me
I'll pound you til your eye can see
I'll show you what it means to be
alive in the 20th century
the bible's empty pages
tell me what I'm doing wrong
survivors and we're raging
and we can't wait here too long
And I don't wanna, I really don't wanna
I really don't want to hurt you
I just wanna, really just wanna
Just wanna affect you

Hammer
03:25
|

|
They call me the claw, but that's not true
I'm just a hammer for you baby
Call me the sledge, but that's just rude
Cuz I'm a hammer for you baby
My train rolls, on time
I'm a locomotive GT
My heart pounds for you
I'm a tiger for you baby
I'm a hammer for you baby,
going to pound my way right into your heart
I'm a hammer for you baby,
going to pound my way right into your heart
My cat howls for you
I'm a tiger for you baby
I'll drive on, just for you
I'm a hammer for you baby
To show my burning lust,
I'm a napalm for you baby
Mushroom clouds, just for you
I'm a hammer for you baby
I'm a hammer for you baby,
going to pound my way right into your heart
I'm a hammer for you baby,
going to pound my way right into your heart

Here's Looking at Me

Here's Looking at me
Let's drink to my health
Here's hoping that everybody's thinking about me all at once...
Here's looking at me
Well, I'm a beautiful guy
I'm one of the most interesting people I've met (If I say so myself)
And I don't want to love you --- I just want you to love me
Here's looking at me and all my eloquent charm
Here's hoping that you see fit to worship me
On my Terms
And I don't want to love you, I just want you to love me...

Kamikaze Lovers
02:18
|
|||
|
When I first encountered you
I knew it'd be a fatal move
And I'm finding far too soon
That suicide's not far removed
The more I see the less I like
But I just can't accept mistakes
So I'm hanging for the glory
At the end of every race
I'm a kamikaze, You're a Kamikaze too
We'll do everything that Kamikaze lovers do
You were flying so high when I shot you down
Kamikaze love driven into the ground
It takes a proud man to die in a war
Kamikaze love can only even the score
I'm a kamikaze, You're a Kamikaze too
We'll do everything that Kamikaze lovers do

MegaloManiantics
02:06
|
|||
|
Maybe it's the animal you wear around your neck
Maybe it's the dirty sordid rumors that you spread
Maybe it's the color of the girls who wish they were
Maybe it's the way you wrap your lips around your words
At any rate, your megalomaniantics aren't for me
Your pyrotechnic showmanship leaves nothing left to see
Your vain attempts at cheap psychotics aren't enough for me
At any rate, your megalomaniantics aren't for me
Maybe it's the way you reach for everything in sight
Maybe it's the way you grasp at straws to make it right
Maybe it's the way you throw away the things you use
But maybe it's the only way for you...

A Kind of Imbalance
02:36
|
|||
|
No more memory lane for me
In pain I'll look ahead
No more looking back to see
I'd lost myself instead (lost myself instead)
All around me tumbled down
And finally bit the dust
All the doctors said to me was
“Something that I must” --- “something that I must”
It's a kind of imbalance
That's what's wrong with me
It's a kind of disturbance
That's what wrong with me
That's what's wrong, that's what's wrong
That's what's wrong with me...
I was only 9 years old, struggling for my 10th
And when they'd seen what I'd done to me
They knew that I was bent, knew that I was bent
So no more memory lane for me
In chains I'll look ahead
No more looking back to see
I'd lost myself instead (lost myself instead)

She's A Screamer
01:30
|
|||
|
She's mean, scheming all of the time
She's a screamer when she gets outa line
And you believe her when she says that she's right
Day dreaming all through the night
Day dreaming all through the night
Day dreaming all through the night
She's a mad, raving, sweet-talking girl
She knows she's the best in the world
And you believe her when she says that she's right
She's day dreaming all through the night
Day dreaming all through the night
Day dreaming all through the night
She's a Screamer
She's a Screamer
She's a Screamer
She's the devil when she gets you in bed
you know she'd love to dance on your head
She's not a girl for one-night stands
She knows she could do better than that
Oh man, she can do better than that
She can do better than that
She's a screamer!
She's a Screamer!
She's a Screamer!

Just One Chance
02:57

Come into my life and show me some love
You've got to give it with me
With just one chance, I'll show you
The passion that hidden in me
All the lies that must be made
All the dreams that must be played
Tell me, what can I do if it's not with you
Tell me what can I do
Tell me who can I be
Just tell me what can I do
Come into my life and show me some time
You've got to share it with me
With just one chance I'll show you
The passion that's buried in me
All the lies that must be made
All the dreams that must be played
Tell me, what can I do if it's not with you
Tell me what can I do
Tell me who can I be
Just tell me what can I do

It's a Game
03:07
|

|
its the same old story except for the names
just like a second-run movie, or was it a play?
For the first time I realize that nothing will change
it shouldn't concern me, mistreating me so
there's something to learn there, that’s something to know
all the bridges we've burned, now there's nowhere to go
It's a game, and it's always been your move
It's a shame --- the winner's always you
You say that you love me, with nothing to gain
You said you'd do better but nothing has changed
Tell me how can you love me when you can't even remember my name
It's a game, and someone has to lose
It's a shame --- the winner's always you
