"Blaze Of Glory"

"Blaze Of Glory"



Johnny was a young boy
with nothing much except a certain kind of look in his eye
He was discovered one day - you see he had a certain kind of appeal
for a certain kind of guy
Who gave him some advice on what to wear
and sent him out to make the young girls cry
And all the young boys who'd just been dumb and restless
now they could identify

So tell me who'll take the blame
for the way things turned out

Well six long months passed and Johnny was the biggest thing alive
And we loved Johnny and we owned Johnny
and no one knew how Johnny felt inside
And Johnny was so beautiful, he was like a god
and we all went along for the ride
And the ride started to go too fast
and Johnny just conveniently died

And he went up in flames
He did what he had to do

And they say it's a tragic story
he just wasn't there one day
but he went out in a Blaze of Glory
and you and I - you and I just fade away

Well nowadays there's a lot of guys like Johnny
they got it all worked out - like working 9 to 5
But they're all just cartoons - all think they're Superman
but they can't even fly
And they say that Johnny's ghost walks 'round in Memphis
when the moon is full and high
And I wonder if he sees these jokers
and I wonder if he laughs or if he cries

Now he's an angel in flames
But what about you and me

And they say it's a tragic story
he just wasn't there one day
but he went out in a Blaze of Glory
and you and I - you and I just fade away

"Blue Flame"

"Blue Flame"



I've got some walls around me too
But they're not much compared to your house
Fifty feet high with barbed wire
Guards on the top
Aiming rifles at your lovers one by one
And friends too

I've come with hands above my head
But I'm damned if I'll try to break your door down
If you ever come out, just call me
I'll still be armed
With the memory of one evening when you smiled
At something

Sadness spreads like a black stain
But I know by now
That's not all there is

There's a blue flame inside of you
So beautiful and rare
Love's not something we decide to do
You'd be so hard to love
If love was not just...
There

You tell me women get you down
And as for men, well they're all bastards
I wonder what world you call home
And I wish I could learn their language
Just enough to make you laugh
Just one time

Yes it was nice to see you too
Although I'm never sure you mean it
I'll pick up the tab, and you won't thank me
Not that I mind
But in my dreams it's all so different, we even kiss
Imagine this

Bitterness is a black hole
Don't you know by now
You've got more to give

There's a blue flame inside of you
So beautiful and rare
Love's not something we decide to do
You'd be so hard to love
If love was not just...
There

Impossible to love
If love was not
For some strange reason
There

"Bright Grey"

"Bright Grey"



She says that he's pouring fuel on the fire
He turns around and calls her a liar
She says I'm trying to get to a higher plane
Someone around here's sane
God only knows if it's you or me

He says that she's jealous just like a female
She says I caught you, I went through your e-mail
He says it's getting hard just to be male now
Somebody tell me how
God only knows why we're enemies

Hey - why doesn't someone say
This dull black and white should fall away
Please - tell me it's not just me
Can't wait until we're all bright grey
Bright grey

She packs her baggage and goes home to mother
He says go on 'cause he's sick of being smothered
She says I'm saving revenge for another day
How did it get this way
God only knows how it used to be

Hey - why doesn't someone say
This dull black and white should fall away
Please - tell me it's not just me
Can't wait until we're all bright grey
Bright grey

"Cha Cha Loco"


You've tied the knot –
Don't bite the hand or it won't feed
What she ain't got
Is sure to make sure you don't need
You can't go back
You've booked the band
So take your partner by the hand

Baile
Enjoy the food – so many courses
Baile
Enjoy the dance – they don't shoot horses
Baile
Cha cha loco

You like the dress –
It's out of mothballs once a year
The good champagne –
Tomorrow night it's back to beer
But now you're here
You'll dance all night
But never get the steps quite right

Baile
Enjoy the food – so many courses
Baile
Enjoy the dance – they don't shoot horses
Baile

Cha cha cha loco
Cha cha cha loco
Cha cha cha loco
(Cha cha loco, cha cha cha loco)

"Chinatown"

"Chinatown"



Trying to find Chinatown
Trying to find Chinatown

A hungry man
Can hold out a long time
For some soul food
Good food, whole food
I know I was that man
Maybe sometimes hold out a little too long

I took a right
Then I took a wrong turn
Someone asked me for a quarter
It didn't seem to fit
He didn't look much like a Chinaman

Trying to find Chinatown
Trying to find Chinatown

An old black man
Pushing a shopping trolley
Filled with tin cans
Avoided his glance
I'm nervous and I'm lost
And I don't see too many restaurants

A guy laid out
With a knife in his back
A cop came along
Told him, move on
Go home and sleep it off
I didn't know if I should get involved

Trying to find Chinatown
Trying to find Chinatown

"Chrome"



You always were the special one
The breath of air, the heap of fun
You always had a kind of light
That might dismay, or might delight

I thought about you all along
I used to doubt you
Guess I was wrong

Now you shine like chrome
You're a star and bold like chrome
And from Tokyo to Rome
We're all aware of you
Now you shine like chrome
You're so hard and cold like chrome
And I'd like to take you home
But I'm scared of you

It's nice to see you looking well
I know your age, but I won't tell
You always had a kind of glow
You're luminous
But I guess you know

I see it clearly
You're gonna shine
I never really thought you'd be mine

Now you shine like chrome
You're a star and bold like chrome
And from Tokyo to Rome
We're all aware of you
Now you shine like chrome
You're so hard and cold like chrome
And I'd like to take you home
But I'm scared of you

"Citizen Sane"



If you want to
Live forever
Ask a doctor
Someone clever
He can put you on
Or get you off
Of the drug du jour

All you kings and martyrs
All the little girls and boys
Will thank you when you start us
Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane

If you want to
Make your mind up
Ask a preacher
Where you'll wind up
He can take you in
Or shut you out
Of the final door

Hooray to be Citizen Sane in a world gone mad
Please may we just switch all our brains
On to good from bad
All we want's the Word
And we want it now
No way do we want any pain or to feel too sad

If you want to
Join a mission
Ask the leader
For permission
He can put you down
Or pick you up
Off the killing floor

"Come On"
(originally by Chuck Berry)



Everything is wrong since me and my baby parted
All day I'm walking cause I couldn't get my car started
I'm laid off from my job and I can't afford to check it
I wish somebody come along and run into it and wreck it

Come on - since my baby parted
Come on - I can't get started
Come on - I can't afford a jacket
I wish somebody come along and run into it and wreck it
Come on...
I wish somebody come along and run into it and wreck it

Everything is wrong since I've been without you
All alone I'm lying here I'm thinkin' about you
A guy is on the phone and it sounds like thunder
Cause some stupid jerk's tryin' to reach another number

Come on - since I've been without you
Come on - I always think about you
Come on - the phone sounds like thunder
Some stupid jerk's tryin' to reach another number
Come on...
Some stupid jerk's tryin' to reach another number

Everything is wrong since I last saw you, baby
I really want to see you and I don't mean maybe
I'm tryin' everything tryin' to make you see
That I belong to you, girl, and you belong to me

So come on - I wanna see you baby
Come on - I don't mean maybe
Come on - I'm tryin' to make you see
That I belong to you and, honey, you belong to me
Come on...
Cause I belong to you and, honey, you belong to me
Come on...

"Cosmopolitan"



I'm okay, you're okay
Why remember when it wasn't this way
See my home, see my car
And the beach always used to seem so far

And no-one touches me
Unless it's the way I want it to be
I know I read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And I don't look back

I'm alright, sleep at night
Used to lie awake listening to cats fight
See my hair, see my shoes
And I used to be scared of the dark too

And no-one touches me
Unless it's the way I want it to be
I know I read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And I don't look back

Cosmopolitan

And no-one touches me
Unless it's the way I want it to be
I know I read the right magazines
I'm cosmopolitan
And I don't look back
