"Blazing Away"

"Blazing Away"

So searching down and out looking for a place to stay
A place of no commitment, a place with no involvement.
I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel,
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.

Strange-looking exile with a passion for the dangerous,
An eye for the wicked, a tongue for the nasty.
I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel,
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.

What is the reason that things change?
What is the reason they can never stay the same?
What can I do, what can I do?

Feel it, release it, things change.

Feel it, release it, things change.
Feel it, release it, things change.

What is the reason that things change?
What is the reason they can never stay the same?
What can I do, what can I do?
Feel it, release it, things change.

Feel it, release it, things change.
Feel it, release it, things change.

So searching, down and out looking for a place to stay,
A place of no commitment, a place with no involvement.
I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel,
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.
One's turning, one's burning, blazing away.

"Blood In My Eyes"

"Blood In My Eyes"

Woke up this morning, feeling blue
Seen a good looking girl, can I make love with you
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
I got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do.

I went back home, put on my tie
Gonna get that girl that money will buy
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
I got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do.

She looked at me, begin to smile
Said, "Hey, hey, man, can't you wait a little while?"
No, no babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
No, no babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do.

No, no, ma'am, I can't wait
You got my money, now you're trying to break this date
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do.

I'll tell you something, tell you the facts
You don't want to give my money back
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you
I got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do.

"Blowin' In The Wind"

"Blowin' In The Wind"

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times can a cannon ball fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
How many times can a man turn his head,

And pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times can a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

"Bored By Dreams"

"Bored By Dreams"

Things are never what they seem
Play a part most of the time.
What is yours cannot be mine
And I'm bored by dreams.

Bored by dreams.

I can't say the words I mean
Make myself go through the line.
Does the payment fit the crime
If I'm bored by dreams?

Take me through the steps my love,
Shall we dance again?
I was older then,
Now we are the same.

Lasse des rives.

Rive quI brille dans le noir
Brillera bien, tu peux le croire.

Toujours dire la verite
Quand je suis lasse des rives.

Take me through the steps, my love,
Shall we dance again?
Things were always brighter then,
Hear me call your name.

After a certain age
Every artist
Works with injury.

After a certain age
Every artist
Works with injury.

Take me through the steps my love,
Shall we dance again?
I was always older then,
Now we are the same.

"Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"

"Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"

I walk along the street of sorrow
The boulevard of broken dreams
Where gigolo and gigolette
Can take a kiss without regret
So they forget their broken dreams.

You laugh tonight and cry tomorrow
When you behold your shattered schemes.
And gigolo and gigolette
Wake up to find their eyes are wet
With tears that tell of broken dreams.

Here is where you'll always find me,
Always walking up and down,
But I left my soul behind me
In an old cathedral town.

The joy that you find here, you borrow,
You cannot keep it long it seems.
But gigolo and gigolette
Still sing a song and dance along
The boulevard of broken dreams.

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.

The joy that you find here, you borrow,
You cannot keep it long it seems.
But gigolo and gigolette
Still sing a song and dance along
The boulevard of broken dreams.

"Brain Drain"

"Brain Drain"

Well, I know that you're tired of living this way,
We've been trying to get high without having to pay.

The walls are all empty, it's not a permanent state,
Just let me tell you that it's not too late.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
You're a drain brain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

Well, you know I ain't selfish, there's always a way.
If a thing ain't worth having, you're having to pay.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
You're a train brain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent,
I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent.

Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne,

You stole all my silk but you gave me no change.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
You're a train drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent,
I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent.

Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne,
You stole all my silk, you left me no change.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
You're a train drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

"Broken English"

"Broken English"

Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for?
It's not my security.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in russian,
Don't say it in german.
Say it in broken english,
Say it in broken english.

Lose your father, your husband,
Your mother, your children.
What are you dying for?
It's not my reality.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in russian,
Don't say it in german.
Say it in broken english,
Say it in broken english.

What are you fighting for?

What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?

What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?

Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan.
What are you fighting for?
It's not my security.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in russian,
Don't say it in german.
Say it in broken english,
Say it in broken english.

Say it in broken english,
Say it in broken english.

What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting...

"Can't You Hear My Heartbeat"

"Can't You Hear My Heartbeat"

Every time I see you looking my way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
In the park or walking down the high way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

And when you move up closer to me
I get a feeling that's oo-wee.

Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.

When I feel you put your arms around me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Then I'm glad, I'm mighty glad you found me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

And when you asked me to meet your ma
I knew that baby we'd be goin' far.

Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.

All my friends are crying out to meet you,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Now's the time to go and see the preacher,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

Now wedding bells are going to chime
And baby, baby, you're gonna be mine.

Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love.

Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

Ah!
Ah...
Oh...
Oh...

"Children Of Stone"

"Children Of Stone"

Our chemical devotions of the night,
Bring endless labyrinths of vines to light.
Your silent spell won't bring you home tonight.
You couldn't open up your veins to light.

All that blossoms, all that
Blooms lies fallow in the night,
Waits for a golden sunlight.
All that blossoms, all that blooms
Lies fallow in the night,
Waits for a golden sunlight.

Our chemical devotions of the night,
Desanguinate limbs veined with valleys of ice.
Children of stone your crystal cages align.
Crown of creation bring me into the light.

All that blossoms, all that blooms
Lies fallow in the night,
Waits for the golden sunlight.
All that blossoms, all that
Blooms lies fallow in the night,
Waits for a golden sunlight.

Our chemical devotions of the night,
Desanguinate limbs veined with valleys of ice.
Children of stone your crystal cages align.
Crown of creation bring me into the light.

All that blossoms, all that blooms lies fallow in the night,
Waits for the golden sunlight.
All that blossoms, all that blooms lies fallow in the night,
Waits for a golden sunlight.

"Chords Of Fame"

"Chords Of Fame"

I found him by the stage last night, he was breathing his last breath.
A bottle of gin and a cigarette was all what he had left.
Well, I know that you make music 'cause you carry a guitar,
But god help the troubadour who tries to be a star.

Come on and play the chords of love, my friend,
Play the chords of fame,
But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mI do,
Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no.

You know I've seen my share of hustlers as they try to take the world
And when they find a melody, they're surrounded by the girls.
But it all fades so quickly like a sunny summer day,
Reporters ask you questions and they write down what you say.

Come on and play the chords of love, my friend,

Play the chords of fame,
But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mI do,
Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no.

They'll rob you of your innocence, and put you up for sale.
The more that you will find success, the more that you will fail.
I've been around, I've had my share, and I really can't complain,
But I wonder who I left behind on the other side of fame.

Come on and play the chords of love, my friend,
Play the chords of fame,
But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mI do,
Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no.

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,
Don't, oh don't, don't play the chords of fame.
Don't, oh don't, don't play the chords of fame.
Don't...
