1. Love Is When You Love
Spend your time taking love
Giving no love in return
Sooner or later you're gonna find
Her love will no longer burn
You have to give her everything
She'll want you if you try
Now's the time to give your love
Before she says goodbye
Love is when you love
Love is when you try
When you give your heart
Love will never die
If she's lonely hold her close
Make her feel secure
Talk to her and listen too
Cos that is what love is for
Run to her or call her up
And tell her not to cry
Now's the time to give your love
Before she says goodbye
Love is when you love
Love is when you try
When you give your heart
Love will never die
Spend your time taking love
And giving no love in return
Sooner or later you're gonna find
Her love no longer burns
You have to give her everything
She'll want to if you try
Now is the time to give your love
Before she says goodbye
Love is when you love
Love is when you try
When you give your heart
Love will never die
Love is when you love
Love is when you love
Love is when you love
Love is when you love............
Love is when you try
When you give your heart
Love will never die
2. House of a Sinner
Send me a note, the black spot is something I know
Three diamonds of mine, whiter than the driven snow
Time passes by, in time, time dies
If quality falls, they know of a place they can send me
If there’s a war they can’t excommunicate me
Now, you got it wrong, what have I ever done?
Help me, help me, help me now
Take this pain away
In the house of a sinner, this house of a sinner
The house of a sinner, the house of a sinner
Oh, help me, help me now
Don’t you let me stay
In the house of a sinner, the house of a sinner
The house of a sinner, the house of a sinner
Lost in the world, can’t make my life here alone
Wait for the chance, someone might call on the phone
Oh, I’m killing time, and you’re still in mine
Time passes by, in time, time dies
Help me, help me, help me now
Take this pain away
In the house of a sinner, this house of a sinner
The house of a sinner, the house of a sinner
3. Same Old Sad Affair
Oh, I recall I once held your hand
You couldn’t live without being with me
Love for us, sweet like a child
Never got wild in despair
I recall the look in your eyes
Didn’t disguise how it seems from here
Now it’s gone, it crumbled away
Slowly it turned to tears
It’s just the same old sad affair
Well I tried and I tried, gets me nowhere
Get the same old sad affair
Don’t let it happen, happen - no
I recall how you played the game
After a while it just wasn’t the same
Break away, you turned around
Go with the sound alone
And never know which way to go
I never get what I want
Endless nights talking with you
Nothing resolved, nothing was new
I recall blame laid in wait
I took the chance to run
4. Signed Your Own Fate
You thought that I was your toy
You thought that I'd bring you joy
You know it's not easy
It isn't a dream
I said that nothing's for free
I didn't want you to be your own prisoner
All in a day's work for me
It isn't a game
You tried everyone
But you could find no help
And you could not relate
You signed your own fate
But now it's faded away
And there's no reason to stay except to help you
I didn't think you would fail
You're tumbling down, down, down, down, down
You took my life in your hands
I hoped that you could withstand your own temptation
For those broken too
You never let go
You tried everyone
But you could find no help
And you could not relate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
You signed your own fate
5. Hard Luck
Who cares? Down to the breadline
So what? So what if you’re bad
You find you’ve lost every woman
Who’s never been had
If I can’t get what I want
No empty reaction
If I’m last, last for the handout
My limited action – action
Hard Luck, it happens to us
Hard Luck and you’re making a fuss
Hard Luck, it happens to us
Hard Luck and then you bite the dust
One day I’m high as a bird
Some days I’m low, low
One day I don’t feel a thing’s right
How low can you go?
I’m living high on my money
You’re living on air
Well, I miss the gold on the pavement
Just doesn’t seem fair
6. Living with Another Man
I fell in love with a beautiful girl
When I crossed the Atlantic
She was a woman, worked with a friend
I felt so romantic
I’ve gotta get away ‘cos I know if I stay
You won’t be able to stop me
I’ve got to run away, If I stay one more day
I’ll have to let you know how I see
I drove round to the tell my love
I had to tell somebody
I got there – Heavens above!
She was married to somebody
I had no clues, inside my head
I couldn’t think what I should say
I felt accused like I stated before
It’s not the time to make my play
I’ve gotta get away ‘cos I know if I stay
You won’t be able to stop me
I’ve got to run away, If I stay one more day
I’ll have to let you know how I feel
Living with another man
She’s living with another man
I walked in when you know you can’t
She’s living with another man
7. You Ain't Got Love
Well you got everything to make a man desire
The way you look the way you move
You set my soul on fire
But I can't get through to you there's a wall between us
Though you may have a lot
Baby there's one thing that you ain't got
You ain't got love
You ain't got love
No you ain't got love
No you ain't got love
See you dancing on the floor you drive me wild
The way you move I know for sure
No you ain't no child
But I'm a stranger in your eyes you look right through me
Though you may have a lot
Baby there's one thing that you ain't got
You ain't got love
You ain't got love
No no you ain't got love
You ain't got love
You ain't got love
Though you may have a lot
Baby there's one thing that you ain't got
You ain't got love no
You ain't got love
No you ain't got love
No you ain't got love
No
Ain't got love
You ain't got love
No you ain't got love
You ain't got love
8. Renegade
My love is like a spinning top
Underneath all is hot
My love is like a spinning wheel
Turn me round can you feel
My love is like a roller coast
Take a glass, drink a toast
My love is a hungry cat
Tell me what do you think of that?
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
My love knocking at the door
I was hot I can’t take no more
I can’t tell now what to do
I give up. I’m for you
I make trouble all the time
Spend my love, I think it’s fine
Now, my love ought to be a friend
I give up now, In the end
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
I’m a renegade
I’m a renegade
I’m a renegade
I’m a renegade
My love knocking at the door
I was hot I can’t take no more
I can’t tell baby what to do
I give up. I’m for you
My love is a roller coast
Take a glass, drink a toast
My love is a hungry cat
Tell me what do you think of that?
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
I'm a renegade...gain, again, and again
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Wo oh don't tell me what you wanna be
Wo oh oh oh oh, I’m a renegade
Don't you try it, don't you try it
9. Sweet Fast Talker
I’m not listening, the words are a rainbow
They are combined
The world that you live in, sounds better than mine
You're chained to your life, like nobody should
It’s like pulling a knife
Oh, Sweet Fast Talker
Sweet Fast Talker
I’m not listening, your dead conversation
Keeps peeling away
Just ain’t believing, your animal pain
Something about your voice, never will make true
You really don’t have a choice
Oh, Sweet Fast Talker
Sweet Fast Talker
I’ve got no love for a sweet fast talker, pulling a blade on me
I’ve got no room for a sweet fast talker
In a disguise - no analysing me
I’m not listening, material impulse driving you on
Changing your picture
Yeah, you’re bloody well wrong. Looking for status
You’re looking for me. Shake or attend us
Sweet Fast Talker
Sweet Fast Talker
I’ve got no love for a sweet fast talker, pulling a blade on me
I’ve got no room for a sweet fast talker
In a disguise - through analysing me
I’ve got no love for a sweet fast talker, pulling a blade on me
I’ve got no room for a sweet fast talker
In a disguise - through analysing me
I’ve got no love for a sweet fast talker, pulling a blade on me
I’ve got no room for a sweet fast talker
In a disguise - through analysing me
10. Wait 'till Tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
Way too close, she walked past with her blue eyes
Way too close, she pulled me in, old and wise
Her eyes were shining, she looked at me and she came my way
Yeah, like a chiming, It’s ringing so hard, I’m amazed
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait for today
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
Well she touched my heart, and I felt the ripples roll over me
And she touched my heart, I let my eyes rest on you
She has a drag net, I’m being hauled to the hole below
I’m into overflow, this is the way
This is the way it should go
I’m gonna take care
The way a fool goes, I focussed in on my vision now,
The way a fool goes, I have to make up my mind
Acceleration, I saw the look of persuasion now
Acceleration, Don’t want to waste,
Don’t want to waste any time
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
I’m gonna take care, can’t wait till tomorrow
I’m gonna take care, I need to right now
11. Rock Your Blood
We’re rocking and rolling tonight, like a ball
We’re taking in movement and light, I want it all
Yeah, give us the day, we’re on the town
taking in movement and light, I want it all
Well fear of the past, Wooh, nothing ever lasts
No no no no no no
Rock your blood for me
We get it, get it, get it, get it
Rock your blood for me
Woo -ooh ooh
Rock your blood for me
You get it, we get it
Got to Rock your blood for me
Don’t ever stop (Yeah, no no no no)
Burning a fever tonight, there’s rock in our veins
You figure we’re oh so tight, we’re all smokin’ today
Well, give us the day when we’re on the stage
We’re burning a fever tonight, smokin’ again
Yeah, fear of the past, no no no nothing ever lasts
No –it never lasts
AOwww, said
Rock your blood for me
You got it, we get it, we got it
Rock your blood for me
The line that don’t ever stop
12. Nutbush City limits (Ike & Tina Turner Cover)
A church house gin house
A school house out house
On highway number nineteen
The people keep the city clean
They call it
Nutbush oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
Twenty-five was the speed limit
Motorcycle not allowed in it
You go to the store on Friday
You go to church on Sunday
They call it
Nutbush oh nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
You go to the fields on weekdays
And have a picnic on Labor Day
You go to town on Saturday
But go to the church ev'ry Sunday
They call it
Nutbush oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
No whiskey for sale
You can't cop no bail
Salt pork and molasses
Is all you get in jail
They call it
Nutbush oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
Little old town in Tennessee
That’s called a quiet little old
community
A one-horse town you have to
watch
What you're puttin' down in old
Nutbush
They call it
Nutbush oh Nutbush
Call it Nutbush city limits
13. Can't Get Up in the Morning
Well, nobody knows the trouble in the city
Nobody knows like me
High flying Skytrain, I ain’t got a penny
Keep me in misery
Doctor, Doctor I need a prescription
Hard for me to sleep at night
I’m so tired of living in the city
Help me to put it right
Can’t get up out of bed in the morning
I can’t get up out of bed in the morning time
I feel half dead
And I’m thinking of things that are driving me out of my head
Drinking. I’m thinking of women is a hassle
Lechery’s all around
I can’t relax from the noise of temptation
Filling my head with sound
I’m cutting out to a place in the country
Feel that I’ve got to go
Find me some peace, gonna take my vacation
I’ve gotta let you know
Can’t get up out of bed in the morning
I can’t get up out of bed in the morning time
I feel half dead
And I’m thinking of things that are driving me out of my head
Thinking of things that will drive you right out of your head
Can’t get up in the morning, can’t get up in the morning
Can’t get up in the morning, can’t get up in the morning
Can’t get up in the morning, Get up get up
Can’t get up in the morning, Get up get up
Can’t get up in the morning, Get up get up
Can’t get up in the morning, Get up get up
14. Heaven in Your Eyes
I stand back and look at your angel face
I don’t believe I’m beholding you
I get hot just thinking about your face
I'm wrapped up, I feel your spell every time girl
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
So relaxed but turbulent currents flow
In and out of euphoria
I can’t wait to have you around again
To let you know I adore you
Every time I see that….
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
I stand back and look at your angel face
I don’t believe I’m beholding you
I get hot just thinking about your face
I'm wrapped up, I feel it, feel it
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
Heaven in your eyes, heaven in your eyes
15. Picture on a Screen
I am unreal.
I am unreal.
Ow! I’m playing in a TV show
but people think I’m real you know
They even write to me I say
It seems to be like contact in the head
Picture on a screen
That’s the only thing you’ve ever seen
Now maybe you would like to talk to me
I’m still a picture on a screen
You’re talking at me, never to me
In living colour you can see
The image of your dreams
I will be your fantasy
Picture on a screen
That’s the only thing you’ve ever seen
Now maybe you would like to talk to me
I’m still a picture on a screen
I am unreal.
I am unreal.
You think you know me but you don’t
Could forget me but you won’t I am the shadow in your eyes
I cannot feel your lies
Picture on a screen
That’s the only thing you’ve ever seen
Now maybe you would like to talk to me
I’m still a picture on a screen
16. Victim
Oh I’ve tried as hard as I can
To make myself into your kind of man
I'll give up the wrong kind of things
And step in line like your mama thinks
Some good can come out of bad
I found out where my life is flat
I tried before, but I got lost
Behind my back ; my fingers crossed
Stop
Don't wanna be the victim
I'm making sure that I should win
Don't wanna be the victim
Oh I can plainly see
Where you're leading me
Now I'm on my way
Let it be, let it be, let it be...........
No
I don't wanna be a victim
D'you wanna be a victim?
Ooh I don't want, wanna look back
I might stop them with a thought attack
I can't face losing again
Or try again with another Plan
Black mood, indigo day
They pass me by, now they're far away
I tried before but I got lost
Behind my back ; my fingers crossed
This time
Don't wanna be The victim
I'm making sure that I could win
Don't wanna be the victim
This time don't wanna be the victim
I'm making sure that I could win
I don't wanna be a victim
This time
Don't wanna be a victim
I'm making sure that I could win
yeah
This time
Don't wanna be a victim
