1.Death May Be Your Santa Claus

(ian hunter/verden allen)

How long 'fore you realise you swing
How long 'fore you realise you sting
From the good to the bad to the ugly change
How long 'fore you start to rearrange
How long how long 'fore you realise that all's strange

How long will it take to turn you around
How long will it take to bend you down
How long will it take for me to rearrange
How long how long 'fore you realise that all's strange

Well i don't care what the people may say
I don't give a - anyway
I don't care what the people may say
I don't care what the people may say
I don't give a - anyway
I don't care what the people may say

How long 'fore you realise what you missed
How long 'fore we we get out and may get pissed
You get all the books from the corn exchange
Really mad at this outrage
How long how long 'fore you realise that all's strange
I don't care what the people may say
I don't give a - anyway
I don't care what the people may say
I don't care what the people may say
I don't give a - anyway
I don't care what the people may say

How long
How long
How long
How long
Won't you tell me how long
Won't you tell me how long
Won't you tell me how long
Won't you tell me how long
How long will it take
How long will it take
How long will it take (yeah)
How long will it take


2.Keep A Knockin'

(richard penniman)

You keep a knockin' but you can't come in
You keep a knockin' but you can't come in
You keep a knockin' but you can't come in
Come back tomorrow night try it again

You say you love me but you can't come in
You say you love me but you can't come in
You say you love me but you can't come in
Come back tomorrow night try it again

(repeat 1st and 2nd verses)


3.Rock And Roll Queen

(mick ralphs)

Listen woman you needn't look so stupid when i call your name
out loud
Cause everybody thinks you're a sweet smelling girl with
intelligence and you
Know how
I wouldn't want anyone else to know
About the way you really are
You're just a rock and roll queen
You know what i mean
And i'm just a rock and roll star

Listen woman you needn't go to bed with everybody that you meet
Cause everybody thinks you're a sweet little girl with
intelligence in your
Feet
I wouldn't want anyone else to know
About the way you really are
You're just a rock and roll queen
You know what i mean
And i'm just a rock and roll star
Alright!
You're just a rock and roll queen
You know what i mean
And i'm just a rock and roll star
(fade)


4.The Wheel Of The Quivering Meat Conception

(ian hunter/guy stevens)

This isn't a song in the true sense of the word - it is an
end-of-session jam (sounds a bit like 'the journey'); but i have
included it anyway.

This has been
The mott the hoople
Playing some goodies
And some newies
And some oldies
And some filthies
And some weirdies
And some queries
Just for you


5.Thunderbuck Ram

(transcribed by steve norgrove, jim madden, et al)

Will there come a time when sorrow's hard to find
And all those nursery rhymes will find a meaning
There's got to be a change, thoughts to rearrange
Does it seem so strange to try redeeming

Only time will show if the unrelenting blow
That's cast from down below does strike the ceiling
Life must still go on whatever's right or wrong
Realise what's gone and was never healing


6.Walkin' With A Mountain

(ian hunter)

A mountain train's coming down the track
She ain't wasting time
She's carrying me cause i'm going back
Right to the delaware line
She knows well i ain't been anywhere
Because i crawl back every time to her
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain

Troubles and tears
I'll take it in years
I left so many behind
I may be a train rearranged
Who knows what i'll find
But everything's better in my life i know
I can face any grades that i'm on
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
(alright)
(hey hey hey)

(oh) i'm walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
When she talks to me i know she sees
Where i'm heading to
She sits winks takes it all in
Just admires the view
And if i had a choice in life
I'd take that mountain for my wife
I'm walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Walkin' with a mountain
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
Jumping jack flash it's a gas
