Return To The Valley Of The Go

The Go-Go's Return To The Valley Of The Go歌詞
1.Remember Walking In The Sand

Seems like the other day
My baby, he went away
He went away across the sea

It's been two years ago
That's when my baby go
That's when this letter it came to me

He said that we were through
He'd found somebody new
Oooh, let me think
Oooh, let me think
What can i do?

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no no no no no
Walking in the sand
Walking hand in hand
The night was so exciting
His lips were so inviting

Whatever happened to
The boy that i once knew
The boy who said he'd be true
What will happen to
The life i gave to you
What will i do with my heart now

(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) walking in the sand

(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) walking in the sand

(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) walking in the sand

(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) walking in the sand

3.Beautiful

My life is ever so perfect
My life has been a bed of roses
And you might think i'm crazy
So what if i am
My head is full of good things
Enough for everyone

Beautiful
Is all i see when i look at me
Beautiful
Every mother's dream
Day by day
Things just keep getting prettier (so pretty)
Beautiful
What a wonderful life

My life is really quite simple
My life is just what i make it
I think you think i'm seeing
Only things i want to see
The truth is that i'm being
Who i wanna be

Beautiful
Is all i see when i look at me
Beautiful
Every mother's dream
Day by day
Things just keep getting prettier (so pretty)
Beautiful
What a wonderful

4.Beneath The Blue Sky

Hey over there what's going on
Where i am they say you're wrong
When my sun is setting
Yours is breaking dawn
Say over there i want to talk
I wonder if we think the same thoughts
What do they teach you
How much have you bought
These days i feel too wise
I think we're sharing the same lies

Chorus
Beneath the blue sky
We're all alone together
The calm hides stormy weather
And if we stand apart
We'll kiss goodbye
Beneath the blue sky

Way over there do you feel it too
In the end there's no privileged few
Everybody wants to live
Their lives through

Chorus


5.Blades

I'm feeling artistic
I'm drawing lines
My body is my canvas
I'm making marks in time
Feel the coldness
Feel nothing inside
Caress the smoothness and watch it slide

Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again
Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again and again and again

No one seems to notice
That i don't seem to care
It's my decision, my own life
And i don't intend to share
It's not a question of sanity
Or reaction to something said
No desire to be analysed
For fascination with red

Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again
Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again and again and again

Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again
Uh-oh, here i go
Playing with blades
Again and again and again
And again and again and again


6.Can't Stop The World

I gave up looking for a reason
To live with things just the way they are
I came around
Used to be easy to get to
And they got to me just about every way

Caught with no cards up your sleeve
Not much to choose from
Grew up all along thinking you couldn't lose
Don't want to live without that security
You think with just a little more
Things will be alright

Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Why let it stop you
Your heart, your will, your car-
They've all been broken
You let everybody
You got beat
And it's not entertaining
Watching you try to stand on your feet again

Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Can't stop the world
Don't let it stop you
Don't let it stop you
Don't let it stop you


7.Cool Jerk

Cool jerk

Well i know a cat who can really do the cool jerk
I know a cat who can really do the cool jerk
Well this cat that you're talkin' about
Has nothing, nothing on me
'cuz i know i'm the heppest cat
The heppest cat that ever could be

Chorus
Well they see me walkin' down the street

Cuz they know i'm the queen of the cool jerk

9.Fun With Ropes

Bought a cub scout manual
Found my favourite chapter
Turning up the stereo
It's time for fun with ropes

Learned our knots from a-z
Stole my daddy's belts
We'll make our own fun for free
Having fun with ropes

You tell me that i'm sick (you're sick)
As you strap me to the floor
You know it makes my heart quick
I'll come crawling back for more

Well, i'm collecting coloured cord
No macrame for me
Dim the lights and lock the door
And never set me free

You say that i'm not healthy
You think that i'm a creep
Still you tie your knots so tight
I'm too wrapped up to sleep

You tell me that i'm sick (you're sick)
As you strap me to the floor
You know it makes my heart quick
I'll come crawling back for more
And more and more for ever more - yeah!

Well, i'm collecting coloured cord
No macrame for me
Dim the lights and lock the door
And never set me free

You say that i'm not healthy
You think that i'm a creep
Still you tie your knots so tight
I'm too wrapped up to sleep

You tell me that i'm sick (you're sick)
As you strap me to the floor
You know it makes my heart quick
I'll come crawling back for more
And more


10.Get Up And Go

If you get up and walk away
Leave the past behind
Go ahead and take a ride
No telling what you'll find

The words you say don't mean a thng
They fly right by my eyes
Lokin the mirror don't look at me
Maybe then you'll realize

Chorus
So get up and go
If you're so tired of moving slow

I was on the inside
Looking out for you
But you're the one to make the change
There's nothing i can do

Now's the time for you to move
Actions shout out loud
So cut the talk and move your feet
Cuz words get lost in crowds

Chorus

Quit talking
Start walking now


11.Good For Gone


12.Good Girl

I'm going be a good girl
So everybody loves me
I'm gonna do what they say
Let them chose the games that we play

Good girl, good girl
Gonna be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl

I'm gonna smile til it hurts
So everybody loves me
I'll bend over backwards
Swallow all my angry words

Good girl, good girl
Better be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl

Good girl, good girl
Better be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl

All i want is for everyone to love me
All i want is for everyone to love me

I'll get down on my knees
I'll say pretty pretty pretty please

Good girl, good girl
Better be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl

Good girl, good girl
Better be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl

Good girl, good girl
Better be a good girl
Good dog, good girl
Gonna be a good girl


13.He's So Strange

He's coming out tonight
He'll walk outside the light
You'll feel him very near
Confusion nothing's clear
His presence cold and stark
Like a shadow in the dark
You're scared but you won't run
You almost wish it was over and done

Chorus
You can't escape the thought of him
Do you wonder why?
He's so strange
And if he brought you down to your knees
Would you cry?
He's so strange
He frightens you so much
He could burn you with his touch
Everything has changed
He's so strange

You've lost all track of time
The victim of a crime
He's stolen heart and soul
He's taken all control
Is this some crazy dream?
Obsession the main theme
Though you can't see the chains
You're the prisoner of a love so strange

Chorus


14.Head Over Heels

Been running so long
I've nearly lost all track of time
In every direction
I couldn't see the warning signs
I must be losin' it
'cuz my mind plays tricks on me
It looked so easy
But you know looks sometimes deceive

Been running so fast
Right from the starting line
No more connections
I don't need any more advice
One hand's just reaching out
And one's just hangin' on
It seems my weaknesses
Just keep going strong

Chorus
Head over heels
Where should i go
Can't stop myself
Outta control
Head over heels
No time to think
Looks like
The whole world's out of sync

Been running so hard
When what i need is to unwind
The voice of reason
Is one i left so far behind
I waited so long
So long to play this part
And just remembered
That i'd forgotten about my heart

Chorus


15.How Much More

Every night i see you walk
Walking by, walking by
You hold your head so close to hers
I could cry, yeah, i could cry
I want to be that girl tonite
Girl tonite, girl tonite

Chorus
How much more can i take
Before i go crazy, oh yeah
How much more heartache
Before i go crazy, oh yeah

Love's in your eyes
Making me cry
Why isn't it me?
She's looking good
Just like i would
If it could be me

Chorus


16.I'm The Only One

What you think of me is hard to tell
Double talkin' words that i can't spell
I don't want to read between your lies
Love comes easy when you close your eyes
You always run away with words
You're never seen once you've been heard

Chorus
I'm the only fool
That's as big a fool as you
Got the only heart
And it beats as hard as yours
I'm the only one you run to
The one you come to
The only one you can get to
I'm the only one-only one for you
Only one for you

There's no need to play this silly game
No one wins and nothing's ever gained
You'd think by now that maybe you would see
But you're as blind to love as you are to me
I'm all for one, you're one for all
I got the only number you should call

Chorus


17.I'm With You

I can hardly stand the thought of leaving again
Can barely write the words i'm shakin' the pen
We'll be together but who knows when
We gotta hold on hold on

I'm burnin' burnin' inside
You're outta my sight i'm outta my mind
We never bargained or planned on this
We gotta hold on hold on

Chorus
I'm with you
Hold me in your mind
Keep the fire strong
Without you
Not really apart
Our love goes on and on

When we're together we pretend
That we can take the time 'cuz it'll never end
It was so easy when love began
We gotta hold on hold on

Now i'm off another city in sight
And i remember each and every night
When i could touch you it felt so right
That's why i hold on hold on

Chorus
I'm with you
Keep me on your mind
Relive each memory
I'm waiting
No matter how long
Until you're holding me


18.It's Everything But Partytime

This is the place for celebrating
This is the crowd that's fascinating
This is the time for concentrating
To hear some words worth translating

He's rapping 'bout his meditating
She's dying for some medicating
And though i shouldn't be complaining
What's lacking here is entertaining

Chorus
We're all looking for a good time
But what we get is empty rhyme
When everything's right but nothing's fine
It's everything but partytime

Talk about decorating
A room that needs sophisticating
When coversations become straining
No one's good at interest feigning

Chorus


19.Johnny Are You Queer?

Johnny what's the deal boy?
Is your love for real boy?
When the lights are low
You never hold me close

Well i saw you today boy
Walking with the gay boys
God it hurt me so
Now i gotta know
Johnny are you queer?

'cause when i see you
Dancing with your friends
I can't help wondering
Where i stand

I'm so afraid i'll lose you
If i can't seduce you
Is there something wrong?
Johnny come on strong

Oh why are you so weird boy?
Johnny are you queer boy?
When i make a play
You push me away
Johnny are you queer?

'cause when i see you
Dancing with your friends
I can't help wondering
Where i stand

Johnny you're forsaking
A love you could be taking
I wanna give it to you
But you never come through

Oh why are you so weird boy?
Johnny are you queer boy?
When you asked for a date
I thought that you were straight
Johnny are you queer?

Oh johnny are you queer boy?
Johnny are you queer?
Tell me, johnny are you queer?
Tell me, johnny are you queer?
Johnny are you queer?


20.Let's Have A Party

作詞:Jessie Mae Robinson

Some people like to rock
Some people like to roll
But movin' and a groovin'
Gonna satisfy my soul

Let's have a party
C'mon let's have a party
When some people getting bored
Rock some more
Let's have a party tonight

I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a goon
I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room

Let's have a party
C'mon let's have a party
When some people getting bored
Rock some more
Let's have a party tonight
2, 3, 4

Honky tonky Joe
Is knockin' at the door
Let's bring him in and feel him up
And spin him on the floor

Let's have a party
C'mon let's have a party
When some people getting bored
Rock some more
Let's have a party tonight

The music's getting hot
We're dancing to the beat
Cousin shot the moon
And we're jumping on our feet

Let's have a party
C'mon let's have a party
Then the people get some fun
Rock some more
Let's have a party tonight

Have a party tonight
We're gonna have a party tonight


21.Living At The Canterbury

Okay living in the city
Whores outside a-posing
Traffic noise a lullaby
Skyscapers better than the blue skies
We can do what we want
We can say what we please
We can be who we want
Being poor's okay by me
Proud i don't have no tv

Living at the canterbury
Living at the canterbury
I guess it's pretty cool

Living at the canterbury
Fighting off the roaches
Like being in a dormitory
Till rental due approaches
Spent it all on booze
I'm no fool with credit cards
It's better not to think
Sometimes little i like to think!


22.London Boys

Seen your pictures in the 'zines
And you look real good
Pale blank faces - black and white keen
London boys - cigarette lean

London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool
London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool
London boys

If we had the money
If we were only rich
We'd take a jet plane get outa this scene
And make the switch

London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool
London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool
London boys

Go go go

Seen your pictures in the 'zines
And you look real good
Pale blank faces - black and white keen
London boys - cigarette lean

London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool
London boys
Wish you were here
London boys
Wish we were there
London boys
Seem real cool

London boys
London boys
London boys


23.Lust To Love

It used to be fun was in
The capture and kill
In another place and time
I did it all for thrills

Love me and i'll leave you
I told you at the start
I had no idea that you
Would tear my world apart

And you're the one to blame
I used to know my name
But i've lost control of the game
'cause even though i set the rules
You've got me acting like a fool
When i see you i lose my cool

Lust to love
Was the last thing i was dreaming of
And now all i want is just to love
Lust turned to love

That was when the fun was in
The capture and the kill
In another place and time
I did it all for thrills

Love me and i'll leave you
I told you at the start
I had no idea that you
Would tear my world apart


24.Mercenary

He's crying inside
Can't tear the hurt out
Life's rushing by
Like and old movie backdrop
The radio's blasting
Song after song
About the big romance
That went all wrong

Chorus
She says:
I just wanted to make you
I never meant to break you
He says:
Have some mercy on me
Do you have to be
Such a mercenary

She's scheming inside
Can't stop the wheels turning
Been through it before
There's no profit or learning
She's not really bad
Just a gold-plated heart
So scared to be alone
It rips her apart

Chorus


25.Our Lips Are Sealed

Can you hear them
They talk about us
Telling lies
Well that's no surprise

Can you see them
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Our lips are sealed

Careless talk
Through paper walls
We can't stop them
Only laugh at them

Spreading rumors
So far from true
Dragged up from the underworld
Just like some precious pearl

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Our lips are sealed

There's a weapon
We must use
In our defense
Silence

When you look at them
Look right through them
That's when they'll disappear
That's when you'll be feared

Hush, my darling
Don't you cry
Quiet, angel
Forget their lies


26.Screaming

No friends - don't want them
Just fans to serve your needs
Make money - they adore you
On subservience your ego's fed

Grey matter
Under grey face
You're so witty
We're so base
Grey matter
Under grey face
You're so witty
We're so base

They're screaming for you, for you
They don't know what's true
What's real
Who cares

Kill this scene with your power
Get your contract - distort the facts
You can use and abuse us
We're so mindless we won't react

Grey matter
Under grey face
You're so witty
We're so base
Grey matter
Under grey face
You're so witty
We're so base

Why bother with morals
When you can rest on your laurels
Why bother with morals
When you can rest on your laurels
Why bother with morals
When you can rest on your laurels
Why bother with morals
When you can rest on your laurels

They're screaming for you, for you
They don't know what's true
What's real
Who cares


27.Skidmarks On My Heart

You sure know how to hurt a girl
Fewer hugs and no more kisses
Just water for your carburetor
And bearings for your pistons
Rev her engine for your pleasure
Caress and fondle her steering wheel
When you moan and hug her gear shift
Stop! think how it makes me feel

Chorus
Skidmarks on my heart
You've got me in fifth
You're burning rubber like my love
I'm driving in risk

Spend all your time and money
On that pontiac gto pile
Getting tired of your greasy antics
My pride's getting hurt by the mile
Blow her engine blow my mind
Keep her shocks and brakes aligned
I see that you're all jacked up
Leaving me and your exhaust behind

Chorus

I buy you cologne
You want axle grease
You say get a mechanic
I say get a shrink
I need promises
You want motor trend
Our love needs an overhaul
This may be the end

Chorus


28.Speeding

I can't explain the way i feel
Each time i get behind the wheel
The rush of blood comes
As the power surges
And my right foot urges
The car to push on through the night

Driving faster
Driving past the scenery
On pretty view and
Feel the speed and
I don't dream of
Driving slow some other time

One thing i'm certain that i know
All i want to do is go go go
Everything is rushing by
My heart is pounding deep inside
Got to match the engine's pace
Win imaginary race - yeah!

Driving faster
Driving past the scenery
On pretty view and
I feel as though i've
Got to control my
Reckless need to speed and speed
And speed
And speed
And speed
And speed...


29.Surfing And Spying

Surf!
Spy!


30.The Whole World Lost Its Head

Freeway fell into the bay
Popes on l.s.d.
Muslim girls are getting down
In bikinis
Nazis selling tupperware
Door to door
Telepreachers mud-wrestling
On the dance floor

I read it in the paper
I see it on my tv
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head

You can buy tomatoes
That last 500 years
Claudia schiffer's fianc?Made her disappear
Drag queens have the navy
Tossing in their beds
Mary ate her little lamb
And punk rock isn't dead

I read it in the paper
I see it on my tv
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head

I read it in the paper
I see it on my tv
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head
(is it just me)
Has the whole world lost it's head
Lost it's head
Lost it's head
Lost it's head


31.This Town

We all know the chosen toys
Of catty girls and pretty boys
Make up that face
Jump in the race
Life's a kick in this town
Life's a kick in this town

Chorus
This town is our town
It is so glamorous
Bet you'd live here if you could
And be one of us

Change the lines that were said before
We're all dreamers - we're all whores
Discarded stars
Like worn out cars
Litter the streets of this town
Litter the streets of this town


32.Turn To You

You act so tough
But i know what you're doing
You think falling in love
Means falling to ruin
You build your walls so high
You act your life out all alone
You don't want to let me see
That your heart's not made out of stone

Chorus
There may be some explanation
Why you feel the way you do
The world makes its rotations
But i just want to turn to you
Come on let me turn to you
Please let me turn to you
Why not let me turn to you
Just want to turn to you

It has a lot to do
With the fist time that we met
The wild dance in your eyes
Made up for what was never said
Gotta get my message
Stop spending all our precious time
Stop spending all our precious time
Because before you know it
We'll be down to our last dime

Chorus


33.Vacation

Can't seem to get my mind off of you
Back here at home there's nothin' to do
Now that i'm away
I wish i'd stayed
Tomorrow's a day of mine
That you won't be in

When you looked at me i should've run
But i thought it was just for fun
I see i was wrong
And i'm not so strong
I should've known all along
That time would tell

A week without you
Thought i'd forget
Two weeks without you and i
Still haven't gotten over you yet

Chorus
Vacation
All i ever wanted
Vacation
Had to get away
Vacation
Meant to be spent alone

A week without you
Thought i'd forget
Two weeks without you and i
Still haven't gotten over you yet

Chorus


34.We Don't Get Along

I'm not very serious
You want me to be straight
I'm not out of time
But you think i'm too late
I'm not feeling desperate
You think i can't wait

Chorus
Somehow you always get me wrong
Somehow you always take things wrong
Somehow you always get me wrong
Well i guess we just don't get along

You always go to sleep
When i stay up all night
You say i'm wrong
When i'm thinkin' you're alright
I just wanna talk things over
You just wanna fight

Chorus

You leave me broken
And you don't realize
Everything is o.k.
And then you apologize
The things that really matter to me
They just pass you by

Chorus


35.We Got The Beat(Single Mix)

see the people walking down the street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don't know where they wanna go
But they're walking in time

They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
They got the beat

See the kids just getting out of school
They can't wait to hang out and be cool
Hang around 'til quarter after twelve
That's when they fall in line

Kids got the beat
They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
Kids got the beat

Go-go music really makes us dance
Do the pony puts us in a trance
Do the watusi just give us a chance
That's when we fall in line

We got the beat
We got the beat
We got the beat
Yeah
We got the beat

Everybody get on your feet
We know you can dance to the beat
Jumpin'-get down
Round and round and round


36.Yes Or No

You're alone and i am too
You're my idea of a pretty view
You can move or so it seems
I bet we'd make a decent team

I'm not asking for all your time
A song or two would suit me fine
I'm not asking for you to say
That you'll be with me all the way

Shut your mind off for a while
Concentrate on the latest style
And everything's alright

Chorus
Yes or no
I'll take it fast or slow
I'll make it easy for you to decide
Yes or no
You've got to let it go
Just take a stance
Either dance or tell me no

If you've got somewhere to be
If you've got someone besides me
Let me know don't put me on
If it's not right then i'll be gone

All those dancers can't be wrong
All those answers'd take too long
So tell me tell me now

Chorus
