"This Girl"

"This Girl"


This girl ain't flying tonight this girl ain't trying tonight
she's only turning over, that's what makes a rover
think he ain't doin' it right.

This girl ain't giving her best this girl ain't living her best
she's only going under, that's what makes me wonder
who she'll be pickin' on next.

Happy hunting all you sweet sinners all you losers,
all you winners, find your own peace of mind
Happy hunting all you live wires all you laughers,
all you criers, am I really unkind?

This girl ain't doing the rounds, this girl's become out of bounds;
She's only letting new loves that's what makes the true loves
think that she's out for the pounds.

This girl ain't doing her all, this girl ain't bouncing her ball;
She's only out to plunder that's what makes me wonder
If I should give her a call.

This girl ain't flying tonight, this girl ain't trying tonight;
She's only letting new loves that's what makes the true loves
think they ain't doing it right.

"Till Deaf Do Us Part"

"Till Deaf Do Us Part"


Coming over to bend your ear -
Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part
Are you hearing it loud and clear -
Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part

Keep a rockin' your times are tough -
Let me know when you've had enough
Hanging from the ceiling -
The balconies are starting to shake

Coming over to slaughter you - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part
Do you want us to torture you - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part

Are you feeling the frequency - All the speed and the energy
Riding on their shoulders - The heavy boys are taking the strain
We'll turn it up
If you just specify
Reach for the power - If you want it we'll supply

Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part

Looking forward to tighten out - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part
Are you feeling the force and clout - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part
When you're aching and cracking up - Let me know when you've had enough
Hanging from the ceiling, The balconies are shaking, There's a hurricane a-comin'
And the window panes are starting to break
Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part - Till deaf do us part

 

[fox69]

"Till Deaf Resurrected"

"Till Deaf Resurrected"


Ah, Till deaf do us part
Ah, Till deaf do us part
Reach for the power
Reach for the power
Till deaf do us … deaf do us … deaf do us part

Rest in peace
Amen

"Time To Rock"

"Time To Rock"


Well I see my friends and family
Ae waiting at the door
It's party like you never saw before
Oh oh oh oh
There's a bareskin in the bedroom
And another on the floor
It's a party like you never saw before
Oh oh oh oh

[Chorus]
So I say
Time to rock
Time to roll
Oh I can't wait to celebrate
And we go marching home
Time to rock
Time to roll
Oh I can't wait to celebrate
As we go marching home

Well there's people there who I don''t know
They're knocking at the door
It's a party like you never saw before
Oh oh oh oh
All the nice girls love a sailor
They get one in every town
But I like to see the rich girls get 'em at the door
Oh oh oh oh

[Chorus]

Well it's getting out of order
and somebody called the law
let's pretend that we can't hear 'em at the door
There's a time and place for everything
It's now and we're all here
And there's nothing anymore that's very clear

[Chorus]

"Two Track Stereo One Track Mind"

"Two Track Stereo One Track Mind"


With her one track mind - With her one track mind
She was a hooked on two track stereo with her one track mind
Woh-ho-oh

Well she always had lousy timing
But she'd like making love to music, wearing headphones (woh-ho-oh)
Wearing headphones yeah-yeah-yeah
They get in the way of talking and it don't sound the same
When you have to shout sweet nothings (wo oh oh oh) through her headphones (wo oh oh oh)

With a one track mind, upgraded her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo, with a one track mind

She'd be late for a date on purpose, making sure that she keeps you waiting
While she makes up, another new face
She was always forgetting something and could easily lose her head
Then there'd be nowhere, to hang her headphones, yeah yeah yeah

With a one track mind, upgraded her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo, with a one track mind

Oh, well she always had lousy timing, wearing headphones, when she's out eating or out walking
Like a zombie, yeah

With a one track mind, paraded her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo, with a one track mind

One track mind - What's going through her mind?

Now I'm rolling on home again
Yeh I'm rolling on home again
Rolling, rolling along

"We Won't Give In"

"We Won't Give In"


What do you do when they don't understand ya
What do you do to try and make this town
What do you say now to the man who brands ya
And tries to shoot you down

I'm never gonna give no I don't give in
I'm never gonna give cos I gotta win
Never ever gonna take anymore from those
Who shoot you down

What do you do when it don't go too easy
Nothing is easy in a crazy town
Nobody nowhere has got all the answers
They tried to shoot you down

I'm never gonna give no I don't give in
I'm never gonna give cos I gotta win
Never ever gonna take anymore from those
Who shoot you down

I'm never gonna give no I won't give in
Never ever gonna give cos I fight to win
Never ever gonna take anymore from those
Who shoot you down - Who shoot you down

We're never gonna give no we don't give in
We're never gonna give cos we gotta win
Never ever gonna take anymore from those
Who shoot you down

We're never gonna give no we don't give in
Never ever gonna give up the fight to win
Never ever gonna take anymore from those
Who shoot you down - Who shoot you down - Shoot you down

"We'll Bring The House Down"

"We'll Bring The House Down"


We'll bring the house down

Woh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh

Turn the megawatts way up loud
Send an Earth tremor thru the crowd
C'mon, heads down shakin', c'mon
120 In decibels
A rock an rollin' with armpit smells
C'mon, heads start shakin', c'mon

I said
We'll bring the house down
We'll bring the house down
We'll bring the house down
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
Yow!

Headbangers don't buy no soul
All they wanna do is rock'n'roll away
Let the bass blow you away
Imaginary playing heavy riffs
No diminisheds or fancy fifths
C'mon, heads down shakin', c'mon

We'll bring the house down
We'll bring the house down
We'll bring the house down
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it

Woh oh oh oh oh - oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh - oh oh oh oh oh
We'll bring the house down - oh oh oh oh oh
We'll bring the house down - oh oh oh oh oh

[Guitar solo]

Ohhh
Days later your ears are still ringin'
No voice from shouting and singing it out
Sweat it and get it out

We'll bring the house down - oh oh oh oh oh
We'll bring the house down - oh oh oh oh oh
We'll bring the house down - oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna get it
You're gonna get it

[Etc]

"We're Really Gonna Raise The Roof"

"We're Really Gonna Raise The Roof"


Sit up, git up, the stage is getting lit up -
We're really gonna raise the roof
Slip up, trip up, I'm trying to do my zip up -
We're really gonna raise the roof
You might not have seen us, only pictures in the magazines
So set up, get up, we ain't gonna let up -
We're really gonna raise the roof

Mind out, find out, we even get the blind out -
We're really gonna raise the roof
I am sure aware of that your Papa thinks that we're a scream
So tell him, tell him, we're really gonna raise the roof

We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you
We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you

Blast out, crashed out, you know you're gonna last out -
We're really gonna raise the roof
Stare out, swear out, you're gonna tear your hair out -
We're really gonna raise the roof
Bam bama loo bama baby,
the man in blue says can you keep it clean
Tell him, tell him - We're really gonna raise the roof

We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you
We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you

Just keep on rocking - give it all that you got
The way you're moving, we'll be in like a shot
We'll get it faster, are you ready to go,
I said go, go, go, go, go, go
Bam bama loo bama baby, the man in blue says can you keep it clean?
Tell him, tell him - We're really gonna raise the roof

We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you
We get by, by, by, ‘cos we try, try, try,
we ain't shy, shy, shy, we're like you
You keep a knockin' but I can't let you in
If you ain't hot yet, tell me where have you been
‘Cos when we're done you'll be out on the floor
I said more, I said more, I said more - whoopee!

"Wheels Ain't Coming Down"

"Wheels Ain't Coming Down"


We were leavin' LA airport, me and Midlands Misery (Jimmy Lea)
On an early mornin' plane flight out to some Radio XYZ
Was a 1950's prop job, that had seen much better days
When we came on in to the last approach saw the runway through the haze

And the wheels ain't comin' down
All of my nine lives passed before my eyes
And the wheels ain't comin' down
And you realise you wanna stay alive
you wanna stay alive

Women weepin', children playin', as we roared into a climb
Men was playin', we was drinkin' lots and it never cost a dime
Alter course for San Francisco, standin' by on red alert
Gonna chance a landin' on the sea hoping nobody gets hurt

And the wheels ain't comin' down
All of my nine lives passed before my eyes
And the wheels ain't comin' down
And you realise you wanna stay alive
you wanna stay alive
Wanna stay alive
Stay alive

We applauded Chuck the Captain when our feet had touched the ground
And I won't forget the moment he said 'It's OK folks, the wheels are comin' down.'

And the wheels they're comin' down
and you realise it's good to be alive
And the wheels they're comin' down
and you realise you're gonna still survive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
They're comin' down
They're comin' on down
They're comin' on down
They're comin' on down
