1.Rhythm Of Romance
Coke machines on the ho chi minh trail
Russian spies shopping at bloomingdales
Killer bees swarming up the rio grande
Hey baby where'd you get that tan
Rome burns as we dance cheek to cheek
Titanic's sinking but oooh do we look chic
New york city's got the hong kong flu
And i can't take my eyes off you
Mx gi joe
Rsvp ufo
Abcia
I still want to know who shot jfk
Let's dance
To the rhythm of romance
Let's swing
'neath the stars above
C'mon let's dance
To the rhythm of romance
Let's kiss
Let's fall in love
Johnny woke up from his american dream
Rich man poor man and a desert in between
Crystal chandeliers hangin' by a thread
We're in the pink baby just two trillon in the red
And i hear gabriel blowing his saxophone
Through a great big hole in the ozone
Who cares it the sun don't rise
When i look in to your ultraviolet eyes
That's life, this is war
I took it on faith, can't take it anymore
Old, young, yin and yang
We'll all go together in the next big bang
Boom shug a lug a lug a boom
Let's dance
To the rhythm of romance
Let's swing
'neath the stars above
C'mon let's dance
To the rhythm of romance
Let's kiss
Let's fall in love
2.If I Should Lose This Love
I seen highways in the rain
Waved goodbye to midnight trains
I seen sweet dreams disappear
All my life
I felt cold wind cut my skin
Waiting on ships that never came in
But i never cried real tears until tonight
If i should lose this love
If you should turn away
I couldn't bear to face
One more day
If i should lose this love
I couldn't stand the pain
I can do without better things in life and still get by
But if i should lose this love oh baby
I might just lay down ＆ die
I staggered on the edge of hell
Stealing coins from wishing wells
And if the world went up in flames
What did i care
But when i look into your eyes
You know i suddenly realize
For the first time in my life baby i'm scared
If i should lose this love
If you should turn away
I couldn't bear to face
One more day
If i should lose this love
I couldn't stand the pain
I can do without better things in life and still get by
But if i should lose this love oh baby
I might just lay down ＆ die
I don't want to lose this love
3.Shame
The city's burning with desire
High-heeled chicks turnin' tricks in a trance
Pin-stripe zombies on fire
Sayin' hey baby, here's a dime for a dance
(out on the street)
I see innocent faces in the rain
(out on the street)
I see make-up runnin' down from tears of pain
Down the drain
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
It's a shame
For what papa did
It's a shame
Your sister should've told you so
It's a shame
'cause nobody wants to know
The neon moon turns red around midnight
Junior junkies and runaway girls
Blue eyed babies posing in the headlights
Another stray cat in a dog eat dog world
(out on the street)
Ain't no room for no cheap talkin' prayer
(out on the street)
You don't know what it's like 'till you're there
And you're runnin' scared
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
It's a shame
The way papa hurt his kid
It's a shame
Your sister should've told you so
It's a shame
C'mon man let her go
So young
Yet so old
So hard to find a friend
She lives from lover to lover
'till there's nothing left of her
Yeah sweet daddy scores again
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
It's a shame
The way papa hurt his kid
It's a shame
Your sister should've told you so
It's a shame
C'mon man let her go
The world should've let you know
C'mon man let her go
Shame on the school
Shame on the teacher
Shame on those sticky little fingers all over that helpless
creature
Shame on the parish
Shame on the preacher
From where he stands that man don't have half a chance to reach
her
Shame shame shame
On me and you
Shame shame shame
Now what are we goin' to do
4.Sunset On L.a.
Blow east wind blow
Blow as you may
Wish i had the power
To take your breath away
This life is golden
But it's only deep as the skin
Feelin' much colder
Though i'm standin' in the warm desert wind
Gotta leave this town
Else i'll go crazy if i stay
If i see one more sunset on l.a.
I'll miss you blue sky
But not so much
Too much of a good thing
Keeps this old soul out of touch
Sometimes you're empty
Though your dreams they all seem fulfilled
You're cool on the outside
Though the real you is slowly being killed
Gotta leave this town
Else i'll go crazy if i stay
If i see one more sunset on l.a.
Left a girl lyin' 'neath an old willow tree
At times i think she'll still be waitin' there for me
Gotta leave this town
But it's always one day away
Just saw one more sunset on l.a.
Gotta leave this town
Else i'll go crazy if i stay
If i see one more sunset on l.a.
One more sunset on l.a.
Don't want to see
One more sunset on l.a.
Baby wait for me
5.Moment To Moment
Too many nights of isolation
Too many echoes in my head
Too many fires left burning
In this bed
Too many thoughts of desperation
So much pain deep down below
So mych a slave to my senses
I can't let go
From moment to moment
I live and i die
This can't go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and i fall
This can't go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
I ask you how can a man keep his distance
How can he reason with his heart
How can you hold me so near
Yet keep me so far
From moment to moment
I live and i die
This can't go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and i fall
This can't go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
Sometimes i'd like to break you down
To see if there's a trace of woman in you that could be found
But i just keep prayin' you'll come around
And live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
So much a slave to my senses
I can't let go
From moment to moment
I live and i die
This can't go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and i fall
This can't go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
You know i want to give it all
I live from moment to moment
Everyday of my life
I live from moment to moment
6.Cry Of Love
Stand in the window
Close to the edge
As the neon signs surrender to the light of day
I sip a bitter cup of coffee
And i fade away oh i fade away
There's a cross above my pillow
Curse words on the wall
What i'd give to write the pages of my life again
No i can't believe this is the way
The story ends oh is this the end is this the end
I wanna run to the highest mountain
I wanna stand in the light of the sun
I wanna ask all this world to forgive the man that i've become
And now i call on the angels above
Won't somebody hear won't somebody hear
My cry of love
Got a shoe box full of letters
Got a ring that i should pawn
There's a picture on the table of the way we were
I wish to god i could forget
But i still think of her i think of her
Oh i think of her
I wanna run to the highest mountain
I wanna stand in the light of the sun
I wanna ask all this world to forgive the man that i've become
And now i call on the angels above
Won't somebody hear won't somebody hear
My cry of love
Won't anybody listen to me
Can anybody hear my prayer
Won't anybody listen to my cry of love
Won't anybody listen to my cry of love
Won't anybody listen to my cry of love
I wanna ask all this world to forgive
The man that i've become
And so i call on the angels above
Won't somebody hear won't somebody hear
My cry of love
Won't anybody listen to me
Can anybody hear my prayer
Won't anybody listen to me
Does anybody really care
My cry of love
7.The Time Of Day
All the ghosts in the schoolyard
Young rebels with no dreams
Dying of old age
At seventeen
Some blame their mothers
For this unforgiving world
Others point the finger
At the flag the wind unfurls
But i say
You are the lock you are the key
You are the master of your destiny
The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't you give him the room or and inch to play
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't give the devil the time of day
There's a face in the mirror
You don't recognize
So you shatter the lights
'cause they sting your bloodshot eyes
You walk on with a stranger
Who rolls your soul up in his wad
You place your trust in him
Like you once placed it in god
Well i say
You are the lock you are the key
You are the master of your destiny
The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't you give him the room or and inch to play
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't give the devil the time of day
Caught between the cyclone fence and a red brick wall
Yeah, you melt like chocolate in the sun
Then you see your angel walking with his high-tops on
And he hands you heaven hotter than a loaded gun
(the time of day)
Don't you give him
(the time of day)
Don't you give him
(the time of day)
You are the lock you are the key
You are the master of your destiny
The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't you give him the room or and inch to play
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't give the devil the time of day
All the ghosts in the schoolyard
Young rebels with no dreams
Dying of old age
At seventeen
Well i say
You are the lock you are the key
You are the master of your destiny
The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't you give him the room or and inch to play
Don't give the devil the time of day
Don't give the devil the time of day
8.Bound To Cry
Hand in hand
Lonely woman
Broken man
Heart to heart
Tempting fate right from the start
Some other place
Some other time
You keep your distance and i'll keep mine
Don't talk of love
Don't look at me that way
Leave me now before i beg you to stay
Cause in the end someone always says goodbye
You know that time always tells
In the end someone always lives a lie
So make it easy on yourself
Yes in the end someone's always bound to cry
Face to face
So frightened of the first embrace
When to say when
I couldn't bear to love and lose again
So don't say yes
Don't say no
Just turn your back and walk away slow
Don't waste you life
Don't waste your precious years
One sweet touch will only lead us to tears
Cause in the end someone always says goodbye
You know that time always tells
In the end someone always lives a lie
So make it easy on yourself
Yes in the end someone's always bound to cry
Somebody's bound to cry
Don't hesitate
Somebody's bound to cry
Better leave before it's too late
Somebody's bound to cry
Hey don't waste your precious years
One sweet touch will only lead us to tears
Cause in the end someone always says goodbye
You know that time always tells
In the end someone always lives a lie
So make it easy on yourself
Yes in the end someone's always bound to cry
9.The Joker's Wild
Sound the trumpets for the princess and her fool
A joke, a jester just to make her smile
Silver bells on his hat and on his pointed shoes
Tears rolling down his cheeks
As he dances in the aisles
Watch the little funny man stand on his head
Watch the silly minstral with his empty arms spread
His life hanging by a thread
The joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes
The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about you
Watch him juggle on one foot
Maybe a riddle for a damsel in distress
He's just a clown in a court of thieves
Who conspire for a kiss
It's off with his head dare he show his loneliness
Watch the little funny man walk on his hands
See the little princess laugh as hard as she can
Her every wish is his command
The joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes
The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about you
Watch the little funny man stand on his head
Watch the silly minstral with his empty arms spread
His life hanging by a thread
The joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes
The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about you
10.Inconsolable Man
These days i'm looking like a pitiful sight
Got a suicide smile on my face every night
I walk alone
Talk to myself
Shout angry words up to the sky
People stop and stare
Like i'm out of my head
But what do they know
About the tears that i cry
And i cry yes i cry and that's why
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Oooh oooh since she's gone away that's what i am
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Nobody understands
An inconsolable man
I stop into a church and i waste another prayer
Well if there's someone listen' to me
No one's talkin' up there
So i walk down a street
Where lonely men sleep
With what money can buy
I tell myself that life ain't over just yet
I can learn to forget if only i try
And i try and i try but it's a lie
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Oooh oooh since she's gone away that's what i am
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Nobody understands
An inconsolable man
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody understands
And inconsolable man
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Oooh oooh since she's gone away that's what i am
Oooh oooh i'm an inconsolable man
Nobody understands
An inconsolable man
