4. Bad Boys
5. Children Of Tomorrow

1. City Lights
As the night turns everything black
Human fear'll come creeping back
Tear apart your desperate fright
But as a rescue; city light
Glimpse of neon hits your eyes
While you get beaten by violet guys
Sound of sirens though the night
But as a rescue; city light
Chorus:
If blood's the answer to darkness pain
No one will ever walk the streets again
Has told the cops about that dreadful night
But as a rescue; city light
Are you hurt some voices mutter
As your blood runs down the gutter
Someone saw a face through the night
But as a rescue; city light
Darkness melts before my eyes
As the last bit of witchcraft dies
Killed this nightmare to giant sighs
But as a rescue city light
Chorus
As the morning reaches a point of greed
Voices of horror reject my plea
A giant explosion of human fright
But as a rescue; city light
Had it all been a game in my mind
A search for thrills that you cannot find
How much more can you stand these nights
But as a rescue; city light
Chorus
2. Fantasy
I see the stars are falling down from the sky
In the summer heat
But I don't know the reason why
Maybe that's conceit
But I can hear the flowers grow
In the pouring rain
Don't ask me why 'cause I don't know
Am I going insane
Is this a dream or reality
I don't know what is going on now
Is this a nightmare please, please tell me
Where do I belong
Chorus:
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Just a fantasy
Now I feel like a burning fire
Growing stronger and stronger
Telling people their desire
But they ain't got none any longer
I feel like sitting on a purple sky
Riding on the wind
Flying low and flying high
Again and again
Is this a dream or reality
I don't know what is going on now
Is this a nightmare please, please tell me
Where do I belong
Chorus
3. Shelly The Maid
Don't ever think you have paid
For the last love by Shelly the maid
She'll give you all her loving aid
When you need a warm bed - Shelly the maid
Chorus:
Shelly with her belly filled with joy
She knows how to treat her boy
She'll give you anything right
She won't leave you in the night
'Cause she knows when there's money in sight
You'll never see her pale
She'll wear purple red on her toenail
You don't ever have to be afraid
Who'll never let you down - Shelly the maid
Chorus
4. Bad Boys
Saturday night
The kids are back
Ready to fight
Ready for attack
Chorus:
They are the bad boys
They are masters of the town
You are their toy
And they will only bring you down
Out in the streets
The battle of begins
Dirty deeds
The boys are gonna win
Chorus
Bad, bad boys
Bad, bad boys
Morning light
Hits your eyes
Such a night
Can make you cry
chorus
Bad, bad boys
Bad, bad boys
5. Children Of Tomorrow
They live in the streets
Outside the walls
Left out in the cold
There's nowhere to sleep
They've taken the fall
Into the hole
They grew up with violence
They learned how to hate
And learned how to fear
They searched for silence
Before it was too late
Before it was disappeared
Chorus:
Where is the future
Where is the past
The answer's unknown
But the child of tomorrow
Don't know where he is
Or where he shall go
They are the children of sorrow
They are the children of tomorrow
And all their illusions
All of their dreams
Are all gone so far
They live with confusion
Don't know what it means
Don't know who they are
So rise all you children
Come back to life
You're wasting your time
'Cause you are the future
You are not left behind
Chorus
6. Nowhere To Run
Running around the corridors
Blood on the walls
Blood on the floors
And your brain is full of fear
Evil laughs and dreadful cries
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
Seems like death is standing near
Chorus:
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run
What the hell is going on
There's killer behind you back
Just waiting for attack
And your heart is beating fast
Your body's shaking, you're going insane
Something's going on in your brain
Death will overtake you at last
Chorus
The might is over, the dawn is breaking
All night long you have been waiting
It's cleaning up inside your head
You think you're safe, you're feeling high
But you're wrong I'll tell you why
Nobody escapes the castle of death
Chorus
