1. Now Or Never
NOW OR NEVER ©1985 JWM
YOU SET ME UP FOR DISASTER
I LAY BACK IN LAUGHTER
STAY COOL UNDER YOUR THUNDER
`CUZ I KNOW, I KNOW WHAT I'M AFTER
SOAK-UP THE SHOCK
I WILL LET OFF SOME STEAM
GRAB THE BULL BY THE HORNS
THROW MY HEAD BACK AND SCREAM
IT'S NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
NOW OR NEVER
I... I'M A TYCOON
YOU... YOU'RE A BABOON
SILENT BUT DEADLY
EFFECTIVE AND SMOOTH
YOU BIT OFF MORE THAN YOU NEEDED
YOU TOOK IT ALL, BUT CAN'T EAT IT
YOU'VE NOTHING TO SAY
NOW YOU'RE FADING AWAY
AND HISTORY'S NEVER REPEATED
(CHORUS)
(SOLO SECTION)
IT'S NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
WHO NEEDS TOMORROW
NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
WHEN WE'VE GOT TODAY
IT'S NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
WHY WAIT FOR TOMORROW !?
NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NOW
IT'S NOW OR NEVER !

NOT LAST NIGHT, BUT THE NIGHT BEFORE
I FOUND MYSELF PASSED OUT ON A FLOOR
WHEN I AWOKE, I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
WHERE I WAS, OR WHERE I'D BEEN
TRIED TO GET UP, BUT FELL BACK DOWN
THE WHOLE DAMN PLACE WAS SPINNIN' `ROUND
CLOSED MY EYES, TO SHUT OUT THE LIGHT
I CAME TO DAMN CLOSE, TO SPARING MY LIFE
I WAS THE VICTIM OF A SHAKER
A PARTY GONE SNAKE AH
A REAL EARTH QUAKER
ROCKIN' ME DOWN
SHAKER,
A ROCK `N ROLL RAPER
A REAL BLUES BREAKER
KNOCKIN' ME DOWN FOR THE COUNT
WELL BLESS MY SOUL, FEEL A LITTLE INSANE
A LITTLE BIT CRAZED, A LITTLE DERANGED
A LITTLE BIT LOST, BUT THAT'S ALL RIGHT
A LITTLE TOO HOT, BUT STILL BURNING BRIGHT
A LITTLE SHOOK-UP AND COMING APART
A LITTLE TOO DAZED TO HIT THE MARK
A LITTLE TOO ROCKED TO GO ON HOME
I CAN'T GET UP TO USE THE PHONE
(CHORUS)
ALL ON ACCOUNT FOR HAVING FUN
SHAKIN' UP OLD NUMBER ONE
BREAKIN' LOOSE, AND FEELING SO FINE
RAISIN' HELL AIN'T SUCH A CRIME TO SHINE
IT TOOK ME A WEEK TO RESTORE AND REGAIN
ALL OF MYSELF THAT THE SHAKER DETAINED
DOING MY TIME IN A BODY OF PAIN
THE PLEASURE'S ALL MINE, LET'S DO IT AGAIN
AND AGAIN.... I WAS THE VICTIM OF A....
(CHORUS - WITH AD LIBS.)
3. T.A.W.

LYING ON THE FLOOR
WITH YOUR FINGERS IN YOUR EARS
SCREAMING BLOOD PAIN
IT'S TOO LOUD AND YOU CAN'T HEAR
SWIMMING IN THE POWER
AS THE BLOOD FLOWS TO YOUR BRAIN
WATCHING ALL THE OTHERS SCREAMING
"TURN IT UP AGAIN!"
AH NO -
YOU'RE GETTING TOO OLD,
TO FEEL ALL THE MAGIC
AH NO -
YOU'RE GOING DOWN TO STAY,
HOW TRAGIC
OH YEAH -
I BELIEVE THIS SONG, IS JUST FOR YOU
OH NO -
AND THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT YOU CAN DO `CUZ WE'RE
TRASHING ALL WIMPS
TRASHING ALL WIMPS... T.A.W.
KEEP IT UP LOUD DETERMINES THE CROWD
ALL NIGHT - KEEP IT UP PROUD
NEXT YOU'RE DRESSING UP,
TO GET BACK IN THE SWING
YOU'VE GOT A LOT TO LEARN MAN,
YOU'RE SUCH A FOOLISH THING
THE TRUTH IS IN YOUR HEAD,
NOT HANGING ON YOUR BACK
IT'S SUCH A SIMPLE RHYME YOU KNOW
FOR SUCH A SIMPLE FACT.... BUT
(CHORUS)
WHY DO YOU COME AROUND HERE
YOU REALLY DON'T LISTEN
YOU REALLY DON'T HEAR
SO, WHY EVEN SHOW YOUR FACE
YOU REALLY DON'T CARE
AND YOU'RE SO OUT OF PLACE
(SOLO SECTION)
(REPEAT 1ST VERSE + CHORUS)
