It's Electric

I'm gonna be a rock and roll star
Gotta groove from night to day
Gotta blow my honey jar
Gonna blow my blues away
I'm gonna make a stand
Gonna make a million
Gonna make it with you
I'm gonna be wild, my friend
I gotta push it through

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

I stop on red but I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it, my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna kick the dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my pride (?)
Make it in a rock and roll show

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

I stop on red but I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it, my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna kick the dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my pride (?)
Make it in a rock and roll show

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

Sabbra Cadabra

Feel so good I feel so fine
Love that little lady always on my mind
She gives me loving every night and day
Never gonna leave her, never going away

Someone to love me
You know she makes me feel alright
Someone to need me
Love me every single night

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we're making love it's something out of this world

Feels so good to know that she's all mine
Going to love that woman 'til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me 'til the end of time
She makes me feel happy
Good to know that she's all mine

I am the world the hides
The universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces
Is my one and only crime

I lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts, the images the unborn child
That never was conceived

You gotta believe me
Hey, I'm talkin to you

Well I know it's hard for you to know the reason why
And I know you'll understand when it is time to die
I don't believe the life you have will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we're making love it's something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she's all mine
Going to love that woman 'til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me 'til the end of time
She makes me feel happy
Good to know that she's all mine

Turn the Page

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine, moanin out as one long song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before

And your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do
You don't feel much like traveling,  you just wish the trip was through

But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page

You walk into a restaraunt, strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode

Sometimes you can here 'em talk, other times you can't
All the same 'ole cliches: is that a woman or a man?
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand

But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page

Out there in the spotlight, your a million miles away
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
And the sweat pours from your body, like the music that you play

Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed
Echos of the amplifiers, ringing in your head
As you smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said

But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page

But here I am, on the road again
Here I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing the star again
There I go, turn the page

Die, Die my Darling

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty eyes
I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in Hell

Don't cry to me oh baby
Your future's in an oblong box
Don't cry to me oh baby
Should have seen it a-coming on
Don't cry to me oh baby
I don't know it was in your power
Don't cry to me oh baby
Dead-end girl for a dead-end guy
Don't cry to me oh baby
And now your life drains on that floor
Don't cry to me oh baby

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty mouth
I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in Hell

Don't cry to me oh baby
Your future is in an oblong box
Don't cry to me oh baby
Should have seen the end a-coming on
Don't cry to me oh baby
I don't know it was in your power
Don't cry to me oh baby
Dead-end girl for a dead-end guy
Don't cry to me oh baby
Now your life drains on that floor
Don't cry to me oh baby

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty mouth
I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in Hell
Die die die
Die die die
Die die die

Loverman

There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)
There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor (How much longer?)
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls (How much longer?)
There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)
And he's weak with evil and broken by the world (How much longer?)
He's shouting your name and asking for more (How much longer?)
There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer?)

There's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)
There's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door (How much longer?)
With his straining sex in his jumping paw (How much longer?)
There's a devil crawling along your floor (How much longer?)
And he's old and he's stupid and he's hungry and he's sore

Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more (How much longer?)
There's a devil crawling along your floor

Cause I am what I am what I am what I am yes I am

I'll be your loverman

There's a devil laying by your side (How much longer?)
There's a devil laying by your side (How much longer?)
You might think he's asleep but take a look at his eyes (How much longer?)
And he wants you, darling, to be his bride (How much longer?)
There's a devil lying by your side (How much longer?)

Mercyful Fate

They're walking by the night
The moon has frozen blue
Long black coats a shelter for the rain
Their load must get through
Now bats are leaving their trees
They're joining the call
Seven satanic hell preachers
Heading for the hall
Bringing the blood of a newborn child
Got to succeed, if not it's Satan's fall

Way out in Egypt in the valley of kings
Where the mummified pharaohs pretend dead in their sleep
Don't touch, never ever steal
Unless you're in for the kill
Or you've been hit by the curse of the pharaohs
Yes you've been hit and the curse is on you

The curse of the pharaohs can be so deadly
Just destroying your future, making it all shady
Don't touch, never ever steal
Unless you're in for the kill
Or you'll be hit by the curse of the pharaohs
Yes you'll be hit and the curse is on you

Listen
I'm a corpse, I'm a corpse
I'm a corpse without soul

Satan
He's taken, he's taken
He's taken his toll
He took it on me

I
I'm trapped, I'm trapped
I'm trapped in his spell

Tonight
I'm going, I'm going
I'm going to Hell
Inside his spell

Howl like a wolf
And a witch will open the door
Follow me and meet our high priestess
Yeah, come, come into my coven
Yeah, and become Lucifer's child

Undress until you're naked
And put on this white coat
Take this white cross and go to the center of the ring
Yeah, come, come into my coven
Yeah, and become Lucifer's child

I was born on the cemetery
Under the sign of the moon
Raised from my grave by the dead
And I was made a mercenary
In the legions of hell
Now I'm king of pain, I'm insane

You know my only pleasure
Is to hear you cry
I'd love to hear you cry
I'd love to see you die

And I'll be the first
To watch your funeral
And I'll be the last to leave
I'd love to hear you cry

And when you're down beyond the ground
I'll dig up your body again
And make love to shame
Oh lady cry, and say goodbye
Oh lady cry, and say goodbye
You've gotta say goodbye
'Cause I will eat your mind

Astronomy

Clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reasons tend to fly away
Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
And now the sand's become a crust
Most of you have gone away

Come Susie dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you'll want to know where winds come from
Well it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock back there you know
At the Four Winds Bar

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Four winds at the Four Winds Bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One door to let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The Queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
Yes the light that never, never warms
Yes the light that never

Never warms
Never warms
Never warms

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear
Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar

It's the nexus of the crisis
And the origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Call me Desdinova
Eternal light
These gravely digs of mine
Will surely prove a sight
And don't forget my dog
Fixed and consequent

Astronomy - a star
Astronomy - a star
Astronomy - a star
Astronomy - a star

Whiskey in the Jar

As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said "Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya"

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me, no, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Taking my money with me and I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Now some men like the fishing and some men like the fowling
And some men like to hear, to hear the cannon ball roaring
Me, I like sleeping specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

Tuesday's Gone

Train, roll on, on down the line.
Won't you, please, take me far away.
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door.
Means I'm, I'm leaving my woman at home.

Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Oh, my baby's gone with the wind.

And I just don't know, oh, where I'm going.
I just want to be left alone.
Well, when this train ends I'll try again
Oh, but I'm leaving my woman at home.

Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind.
Train, roll on, Tuesday's gone.

Train, roll on many miles from my home.
See I'm, I'm riding my blues away, yeh.
Tuesday, you see, she had to be free.
Lord, but somehow I've got to carry on.

Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind.
Train, roll on 'cause my baby's gone..
I'm riding my blues away, baby
Turn around my blues
Ride on, train, ride on, train
Riding my blues, babe
Come back to me, babe
Come back to me
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh train..

The More I See

From where I stand I see
Pain, suffering, and misery

The more I see
The less, the less I believe

From where I stand I see
Hate, violence and war

The more I see
The less, the less I believe

The more I see
The less, the less I believe (I believe)

From where I stand I see
Pain, suffering, and misery

The more I see
The less, the less I believe

The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The less, the less I believe
