"We R In Control"

"We R In Control"



We control the data banks
We control the think tanks
We control the flow of air.

We're controlling traffic lights
We control computer flights
We control the chief of staff.

We control the TV sky
We control the FBI
We control the flow of heat.

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

We're controlling
We're controlling
We control.
We're controlling
We control.
We control.

We control you floor to floor
We control you door to door
We're controlling
while you sleep

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.

Chemical computer

"We're Gonna Rock Forever"

"We're Gonna Rock Forever"



Down the highway,
all across the nation
Trucks are moving rough,
we pass the break of day
Sure looks like
we're all gonna rock forever.
Rock, rock, rock.

After midnight you see
the big trucks rolling
Pushing metal on down the super slab
Sure hard to tell from here
where we are going
Rock, rock, rock.

Do it inside, do it outside, baby
Do it over again in the same old way
From now on
we're all gonna rock together.
Rock, rock, rock.

Sure looks like
we're all gonna rock forever.
The way we just keep rolling on and on
Yeah, sure looks like
we're all gonna rock forever.
Rock, rock, rock.

"Weight Of The World"

"Weight Of The World"



I used to carry
the weight of the world
On my back
I never trusted
my friends or my girl
Can you imagine that
I used to shuffle my feet
When I walked
I hung my head down low
Kept to myself
all my private thoughts
But when I met you girl.

I dropped the
weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped the
weight of the world
Weight of the world.

I knew some people
used to dance all night
But not me
I never knew
if it was wrong or right
To be so free
I used to close my eyes
And try to hide
from the light of love
Spent all my time
with the darkness inside
But when I met you girl.

I dropped
the weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped
the weight of the world
Weight of the world.

I was alone
for all of my life
I was alone
for all of my life
I was alone
for all of my life
I was alone
for all of my life
Until you came my way
I dropped
the weight of the world
Weight of the world
I dropped
the weight of the world
Weight of the world.

"Welfare Mothers"

"Welfare Mothers"



People, pick up
on what I'm puttin' down now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

Down at every
Laundromat in town now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

While they're washin'
you can hear this sound now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

Divorcee!

Hard to believe
that love is free now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

Out on the street
with the whole family now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

Hard to believe
that love is free now

Welfare mothers
make better lovers

Divorcee!

People, pick up
on what I'm puttin' down now

Welfare mothers

"Western Hero"

"Western Hero"



Frontier town,
home of the western hero
Frontier justice,
dealt with the iron hand

He wore a long coat to the ground
He wore big boots that made a sound
He wore a six gun on his hip
But now he doesn't carry it

Sure enough,
he was a western hero
On the deck,
sighting an old Jap zero

And on the shores at Normandy
He fought for you,
he fought for me
Across the land and on the sea
But now he's just a memory

And in the distance,
the rocket's red glare
The bombs burst in the air
This time
we're never going back

Through the years
he changed somehow
He's different now
He's different now

Open fire,
here comes the western hero
Standing there,
big money in his hand
Sure enough,
he was a western hero,
Sure enough

"What Did You Do To My Life?"

"What Did You Do To My Life?"



When we were living together
I thought that
I knew you would stay.
Still when you left me
I tried to pretend
we could make it some way.

I don't care
if all of the mountains
Turn to dust in the air.
(What did you do to my life?)
It isn't fair that I should
Wake up at dawn
And not find you there
(What did you do to my life?)

It's hard enough losing
Without the confusion
of knowing I tried.
But you've made your mind up
That I'll be alone
now there's nothing to hide.

I don't care
if all of the mountains
Turn to dust in the air.
(What did you do to my life?)
It isn't fair that I should
Wake up at dawn
And not find you there
(What did you do to my life?)

"What Happened Yesterday"

"What Happened Yesterday"



Can't forget
what happened yesterday
Though my friends say
don't look back
I can feel it
coming through me
Like an echo
Like a photograph

"Whatever Happened To Saturday Night"

"Whatever Happened To Saturday Night"



How can I tell her that I love her,
When windy week-end warnings
tell me summer teases?
When I first saw her with another,
My world fell,
and I stumbled for a while.
I stumbled for a while.

Whatever happened to Saturday night?

Don't know what I'm going through,
Look everything is new,
Each time I turn around,
Feels like I'm falling down.

How can I tell her that I love her,
When windy week-end warnings
tell me summer teases?
When I first saw her with another,
My world fell,
and I stumbled for a while.
I stumbled for a while.

Whatever happened to Saturday night?

Back home, look around,
Leaves falling on the ground,
Changes since I've been gone,
Don't know if I belong.

Spoke to her yesterday,
Couldn't think of much to say,
She said that by the winter...
She'd be gone...

"When God Made Me"

"When God Made Me"



Was he thinkin' about my country
Or the color of my skin?
Was he thinkin' 'bout my religion
And the way I worshipped him?
Did he create just me in his image
Or every living thing?

When God made me
When God made me

Was he planning only for believers
Or for those who just have faith?
Did he envision all the wars
That were fought in his name?
Did he say there was only one way
To be close to him?

When God made me
When God made me

Did he give me the gift of love
To say who I could choose?

When God made me
When God made me

When God made me
When God made me

Did he give me the gift of voice
So some could silence me?
Did he give me the gift of vision
Not knowing what I might see?
Did he give me the gift of compassion
To help my fellow man?

When God made me
When God made me

When God made me
When God made me
