And the name is Rana, Rana
It's so nice I say it twice
Or three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home tonight

Australia is in the south
A girl there kissed me in the mouth
I want to take her out tonight

She smokes but I forgot to care
Sometimes she pulls me by the hair
We can go anywhere tonight

And the name is Rana, Rana
It's so nice I say it twice
Or three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home tonight

She's kind of young but so am I
We both believe each other's lies
Look straight into her eyes tonight

Her dress is flowing in the breeze
She doesn't want me to say please
Or speak no Japanese tonight

And the name is Rana, Rana
It's so nice I say it twice
Or three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home tonight

And a piece of Rana, Rana
It's a piece of paradise
So three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home tonight

And the name is Rana, Rana
It's so nice I say it twice
Or three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home tonight

And a piece of Rana, Rana
It's a piece of paradise
So three times Rana, Rana, Rana
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home tonight

Can I listen to this song
Without crying
Can I listen to these words
Without dying
Maybe good times I'll remember
Bad times I'll ignore
Cause I don't want to feel
Like a black rain cloud anymore

Can I think about the way
We were together
Can I give a little rain
For better weather
Let the sun come shining through
Just like it did before
Cause I don't want to feel
Like a black rain cloud anymore

Did I hold on for so long for love
Or was it just jealousy
Was I doing everything for you
Or did I do it for me

Did I hold on for so long for love
Or was it just jealousy
Was I doing everything for you
Or did I do it for me

If I saw you walking by
Before you saw me
Would I run and try to hide
And if you called me
Could I answer you and say
The rain will never pour
Cause I don't want to feel
Like a black rain cloud anymore
Black rain cloud anymore
Black rain cloud anymore

[Instrumental]

What the hell happened to my hair
It used to be long
But now it's gone somewhere
What the hell happened to my face
It used to be young
But now it's covered with age
I don't know, but I still feel like sixteen
Maybe I need to lay off the morphine

What the hell happened to my wife
She used to be here
But now she's gone from my life
What the hell happened to my friends
I wonder if I
Will ever see them again
I don't know, maybe someone was too mean
Maybe I need to lay off the morphine

Everybody needs to get a little bit high
Do it with a pill or with a plane up in the sky
Money or girls, or traveling to worlds
You see on TV, where people are free
And so is the wine they drink all the time
But you'll never find me
You'll never find me
You'll never find me
You'll never find me

What the hell happened to my song
The verse is pretty cool
But the bridge is too long
What the hell happened to my tune
I wanted some pop
But not to break my balloon
I don't know, when I wake from this strange dream
Maybe I need to lay off the morphine
I don't know, but I still feel like sixteen
Maybe I need to lay off the morphine

[Instrumental]

I had a birthday, my oh my
I turned into an older guy
And older guy is what the girls will say
When they try to tell their mom and dad
That maybe it won't be so bad
At least he's got a job and isn't gray
Yet
It's right around the corner
Yeah the time is sneaking up
It keeps on getting faster every year
But I'll be happy as can be
With pretty girls too young for me
They talk and talk, but I can barely hear

I have a girl of 25
She hasn't even been alive
As long as I've been playing this guitar
She treats me like her little boy
I must admit I do enjoy
Pretending that I'm younger than I are
And
She wants to start a family, but in a year or so
I may not have the strength to raise a kid
Cause if a child rides piggyback
I think that you would hear a crack
And see me break in two just like a twig

I had a birthday yesterday
It came and went and now today
It's time to get back to my normal life
Where I forget how old am I
And walk down to the junior high
To see if any girls will be my wife
No
I don't think it will happen
And you probably think I'm wrong
For chasing younger girls in leather boots
But I am harmless as can be
I'll show you if you want to see
My gun will aim, but it no longer shoots

And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Early morning Manhattan
Ocean winds blow on the land
Movie-Palace is now undone
The all-night watchmen had their fun
Sleepin' cheaply on the midnight show
It's the same old ending
Time to go
Get out

It seems they cannot leave their dream
There's somethin' movin' in the sidewalk steam
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Nighttime's flyers feel their pains
Drugstore take down the chains
Metal motion comes in bursts
The gas station can quench that thirst
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'
And out on the subway

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spray-gun hid
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

The lamb seems right out of place
Yet the Broadway street scene finds a focus in its face
Somehow it's lyin' there
Brings a stillness to the air
Though man-made light, at night is very bright
There's no whitewash victim
As the neon's dim, to the coat of white

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Wipes his gun, he's forgotten what he did
And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Suzanne tired her work all done
Thinks money, honey, be on, neon
Cab-man's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn
Wonder women you can draw your blind
Don't look at me, I'm not your kind
I'm Rael

Somethin' inside me has just begun
Lord knows what I have done
And the lamb lies down on Broadway (on Broadway)
On Broadway (on Broadway)
On Broadway (on Broadway)
On Broadway (on Broadway)

You've lost that feelin' in your kiss
I'm only holdin' up the show
My god your face I'm gonna miss
I see it's time to let you go

You don't dig lovin' me no more
We used to make it long and slow
I've cried so long my eyes are sore
I see it's time to let you go

It ain't no good if it don't feel good, real good
It still felt good to me
And if you feel you should, it's understood
Just go where you should be

Take everything that smells like you
Leave no reminders left to show
That at one time man we were two
But now it's time to let you go

It ain't no good if it don't feel good, real good
It still felt good to me
And if you feel you should, it's understood
Just go where you should be

Take everything that smells like you
Leave no reminders left to show
That at one time man we were two
But now it's time to let you go

That at one time man we were two
But now it's time to let you go

That at one time man we were two
But now it's time to let you go

[Instrumental]

Everybody knows it's Universal
Everybody knows it's plain to see
Everybody here can understand it
It's not a book you gotta read
It don't take too much rehearsal
So come and sing along with me

I said
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na.

Everybody knows it's Universal
Everybody knows that they're the best
From accounting down to promotion
They never seem to take a rest
They treat me well when I go solo
And just as good with Racer X

I said
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na. Na, na.
Na, na, na. Na, na, na, na, na.
