01. Ez Come Ez Go

You had it right in the palm of your hand, right before your eyes
Now it's gone and you don't understand, you've got to realize

There comes a time when you've got to let things go as fast as they come
Wait and see what tomorrow may bring you, get it all while you can

Sometimes it just feels so right, and other times so wrong
Every new day it brings on the night, the change goes on and on and on and on

It never stops, no it keeps on rollin', wiped away like an [arch of] sand
Here it comes, there it goes, always changin' ends

Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, that's what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh no!

Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh, you know that's what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh whoa!

Talk of let go when it took so long to get, it's [how the lovin' goes]

02. Cumin' Atcha Live

I'm a mean machine, I'm the kind you don't wanna meet
My middle name is trouble, I'm a danger in the street
My motor's in overdrive, I got my pedal to the floor
Never get enough, always comin' back for more - yeah yeah

Here I come, better step aside
Here I come, I'm comin' atcha live, comin' atcha live

I'm the one you want, I never give a warning twice
Anything could happen like the rollin' of the dice - now!

Here I come, you better step aside
Here I come, comin' atcha live

Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come

Come on!

Comin' at you live - I'm comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come
Comin' at you live - step aside, oh step aside

Ow! Ow! Oh yeah, here I come - here I come!

03. Gettin' Better

All that rain outside my window, it goes on and on, I know
It's gettin' better every day
Soon the sun will shine outside my window, when it's gonna come
No I really, I couldn't say
No no no no no no, it's gettin' better every day - thank you

Can you hear it? Oh, it's gettin' better now, every day, yeah yeah yeah yeah

I'm a hard workin' man, doin' all that I can, tryin' to make ends meet
Just a-makin' my way through the jungle today, it's gettin' the best of me

But it's only gettin' better, and a change is gonna come my way
Yes it's only gettin' better, better every day, aha yeah

I've been changin' the scene, if you know what I mean
Good things are comin' my way
And now I'm livin' my life, and I try doin' it right
Sun shinin' every day

Well it's only gettin' better, and a change is gonna come my way
Yes it's only gettin' better, better every day

Now it's only gettin' better, and a change is gonna come my way
Yes it's only so much better, oh, gettin' better every day, yeah
I can feel it, feel it gettin' better, whoa, day and night
I feel it, feel it gettin' better every day
Gettin' better, it's gettin' better, it's gettin' better

04. 2 Late 4 Love

I can't believe this fucked up world in which we're livin' in
Still I do the best that I can
Always got me on the lookout for a getaway
Runnin' hard, I'm a rock 'n' roll man

I know we can make it [and go, said that] all you gotta do is sign
Tellin' you all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll

Too late for love - baby it's too late
Too late for love - girl I gotta say
That it's you, I know, that makes me feel this way
Don't you know that it's too late for love

Foolish hearts gettin' caught up in a lover's game
That's the way some want it to be
Now all I need is someone, just to get me through the night
Any more is too much for me

I know we can make it [and go, said that] all you gotta do is sign
Tellin' you all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll

Too late for love - baby it's too late
Too late for love - girl I gotta say
That it's you, I know, that makes me feel this way
Don't you know that it's too late for love

Oh baby it's too late, too late for love, too late, oh yeah

Too late for love, oh baby baby, it's too late for love
Too late for love, oh, I tell ya, it's too late for love

'Cos all I need is someone standin' by my side
I don't care if I have to see you cry
You oughta know my name, yes, it's too late for love

05. Rock Me To The Top

You gotta see him, are you ready, to take me in and rock me steady
Feel the power, feel the heat, put yourself in the driver's seat

You're in the air, I feel you surround me
I'll do anything that you wanna do - come on!

Rock me, rock me (rock), rock me to the top, to the top, baby
Rock me, rock me (rock), don't ever stop, no

I'll take command, take control, now I see you comin' back for more
I see you like it, but you don't need it, oooh, you wanna feel it

I'm in the air, feel me surround me
I'll do anything that I want you to - come on!

Rock me, rock me (rock), rock me to the top, to the top, baby
Rock me, rock me (rock), don't ever stop, no

Rock me, rock me (rock), rock me to the top, [says you looked hot] to the top
Rock me, rock me (rock), ohh baby don't you stop
(Rock) I wanna feel the air, the air, wanna feel the air (rock)
I wanna feel the air tonight, can you feel the air, ow!

06. We're No Good Together

Every day, yeah yeah, I wait till the morning light
Ooh with a feeling, yeah yeah, something here ain't right
When I think about it now, oh baby, ooh
When I think about all the good times we had
I knew there was something wrong, there was no chance for me and you

Oh now, now I try to tell you baby, there ain't nothing we can do
'Cos I'm no good for you, oh no baby, you're no good for me

Now it's been so long, so long, since the last time I've seen your face
I tell ya, there ain't nobody baby, in this whole wide world
Who could ever take your place, no way, oh no

Now I try to tell you baby, there ain't nothing we can do
'Cos I'm no good for you, no baby, you're no good for me
Oh, what I'm tryin' to say is, we're no good together

You know we can't go on, we can't go on together, no, oh baby
Honey we can't go on, we can't go on this way, baby, oh yeah
Listen to me, oh listen to me, I got something to say, I got something to say
I say that we're no good together, we're no good together
Now what's going round, you're all over town, and you're bringin' me down

Oh baby, we're no good together, we're no good together
We're no good together

Oh baby baby baby babe you know it's just no good
Oh it's no good together, oh oh, no good together

07. Modern Day Cowboy

Stormy night under dead black skies, he pulls into town
Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell is breakin' loose

I said bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away

I could blow and the bad boy jones, on the wrong side of the law
Johnny and his company, always fast to the draw, yeah
Get so lean, feelin' so mean, I try to take my lucky share
'Cos all I saw was ruin, oh, the smell of blood was in the air

I said bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away

Ole!

So here we are and we've come this far, but it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with their terrace demands, only cost, they get hurt
The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R., wearin' six-guns to the side
I see the message, it's written on the wall, to my chain-gun deep inside

I said bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away

It's a showdown, yeah yeah yeah, ohh

08. Changes

Changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Rearrangin', can't seem to stop the hands of time
I remember, I was so young, I was much too young to see
Now I'm older, growing older, and I see things differently
Oh can't you see, it's changin' you and me

Time's makin' changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Time's rearrangin', changin' you and me

Faces, strange faces cloud my mind
Empty traces, make it hard for me to find
Somewhere in the distance, is there someone who awaits
For that moment I am taken over by the hands of fate
Can't you see, the world is changin' me

Time's makin' changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Time's rearrangin', changin' you and me
yeah yeah

Nothin' ever stays the same, it's always gonna change
I'm on my way, yeah yeah

Changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Rearrangin', always changin', can't seem to stop the hands of time
Can't you see, it's changin' everything

Time's makin' changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Time's rearrangin', changin' you and me
yeah yeah

Oh all these changes

09. Little Suzi

Little Suzi's on the up, looking for a get-away
Ruby tries to bring her down, she's lookin' for another way
Little Suzi's on the up, headin' for the spotlights
Ruby finally gets up, lookin' for some quiet night

And the music makes her feel so hot
Ooh and she'll smile for the camera with all she's got
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true

Little Suzi's on the up

Little Suzi's on the up, now suddenly it's not a game
Ruby's got to give up, 'cos Suzi's plainly set on pain
Little Suzi's on the up, cost in cost, your point is made
Ruby's gonna hang around, to make sure Suzi's okay

And the music makes her feel so hot
Ooh and she'll smile for the camera with all she's got
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true

Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true

Little Suzi's on the up

And the music makes her feel so hot
Ooh and she'll smile for the camera with all she's got
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true
Don't you bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far when her dreams come true

Little Suzi's on the up, oh yes she is, ow!
Now she's on the up, little Suzi's on the up
Heading for the spotlight, oh little Suzi
Oh and the music makes her feel so hot, go little Suzi, yeah
Ohh, yeah yeah, oh yeah

10. Love Me

It's day and I'm feelin' high, what's the chances for you and I
I've got a love on my mind, lovin's on my mind
Now take me, lay me down, show me what you're all about
If you got the time, I wanna make you mine

'Cos you've got everything I want, baby you're all I need
I want you to gimme your love, give it all to me

You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
Oh set me free, oh woman set me free
You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
Oh let me be, oh woman let me be

I've got this feelin' that I just can't help, want you baby all to myself
Do you got the time, I wanna make you mine
I'll be your only, woman, only love
Come on baby, give it to me, yeah, oh, give it to me

'Cos you are everything I want, baby you're all I need
I want you to gimme your love, give it all to me

[Chorus]
You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
Oh set me free, oh woman set me free
You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
Oh let me be, oh woman let me be

Time was waitin' for me, an hour due
'Cos I make her swear, she couldn't think I'd wanted to
You've got to give me some kind of a sign
Girl, let me know, if you're gonna be all mine

Come on, come on, come on, baby give it to me

Oh, you are everything I want, baby you're all I need
I want you to gimme your love, give it all to me
Come on, give it all, give it all, give it all

You've got to love me, come on, love me
Oh set me free, oh woman set me free
You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
Oh set me free, oh woman set me free
Love me, love me, come on baby, I need your lovin'
You've got to love me, c'mon, baby love me
You got to give me, got to give me, got to give me everything I need
Love me!

11. Cover Queen

Looks so good, from her head to feet
Body English tights and to me so so sweet
Got a perfect ten, there ain't no doubt
She's the kind of girl you dream about

You know she's got it - she's got everything
She knows you want it - oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, for that cover queen

Dressed to kill, this ain't no game
Checkin' care of bitch 'cos needs a life of fame
And everywhere she goes, she's the talk, she's the talk of the town
She keeps it clean, but still gets around

[Chorus]
You know she's got it - she's got everything
She knows you want it - oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, for that cover queen

Ooh, head over heels for the cover queen, ohh

Hey there cover queen, you know the time will come
Where you're not laughin', neither one
'Cos the pretty smile will have a brandnew face
Will come along to take your place

You know she's got it, now she's got everything
You know you want it, oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, head over heels, for that cover queen

Oh every time I look at you, all I wanna do is get next to you
I see your face in a magazine, the best lookin' bitch that I've ever seen
I'm in love

12. Before My Eyes

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized, I'm surrounded by her
I can't, I can't forget that face, and I will, I will go back to that place

She stands before my eyes, right before my eyes

I can see the colours are coming one after another for me
I see the words, I hear the sound, going round in my head
But I know there's something out there, please tell me, is this reality

Right before my eyes, right before my eyes

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized
I can see the colours are coming one after another for me
I see an image of myself

Before my eyes, right before my eyes
Before my eyes, before my eyes

That was nice, whoo! Typical nice, right Philadelphia? Right?
Yeah, I mean, you know (can you turn on the air conditioning, please?)
Can you turn on the air conditioner, please? It's fuckin' hot!
Turn on the air conditioner, or these people are gonna kill you!
Wait a minute, here. Oh! Oh, hey! (Oh, hey, we got a...)
Oh, Brian, you tried to give this play bass, didn't you, oh, hell no
Let's go jam a little Ebony and Ivory

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the... well, we don't know that song

But, anyway, right, we got mr. Brian Wheat...
Thank you, that's just what I was... oh, and old Ted Tulsa hat
Well shit, goddamn, hell-puh - alright!
And anyway, we got mr. Brian Wheat on the piano for ya on this one and
It's a tune of our second album (hit it!)
Hit it
