"Bop 'Til You Drop"

"Bop 'Til You Drop"



Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love won't, love won't wait

You wake up wired and draw on your makeup
And the city breathes
And the city jumps to life

Lately it seems
Your time is all used up
Chasing dreams
Of money and the good life

But there is something
You've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling
The power of love

Everybody says it's
So hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love won't, love won't wait

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh

People say you're the lucky one
But you don't believe it
And you want to stop
And you want to take some time
To sus' out a feeling and look for a reason
And the flesh is weak
But the spirit is willing

'Cause there is something
You've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling
The power of love

Everybody says it's so
So hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night
Don't stop 'til you get what you want

Bop 'til you drop
'Til you sit pretty
Burn the candle, burn it bright
Love won't, love won't wait

There is something
You've been thinking of
Lately you're feeling
The power of love

Everybody says it's so
So hard to hold
The alarm rings
You gotta get up, you gotta get up

Bop 'til you drop
In the hot city
Keep on working day and night

"Born Out Of Time"

"Born Out Of Time"



"Come on out please let me stay here, I won't make any trouble
What's the idea, you can't stay in here
Come out I tell you
But your dog will bite me
Oh nonsense, Major doesn't bite girls
Come on, hurry up, it happens to be raining out here"

I've seen all your movies, at least 3 or 4 times
And have on my wall, a large picture of you
But you were that pretty young star, so long ago
I'm born out of time with ya
What can I do

Maybe, I'm silly to think we'd have made it
But what I'd had given to at least had a try
Oh take me back with you 1939
'Cause black and white movies are making me cry
And born out of time, we slipped hopelessly by

Sophia Loren, Bridgett Bardo, Jean Harlowe,
Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Deitrich
You're better, you're better than any I'm seeing
Yes, you were a real beauty queen

Oh listen people, has it happened to you yet
The feeling that someone was born out of time
Will you love someone, physically much too young for you
Either way, it's a shame, time was so cruel
But it's nice that that, generally, isn't the rule

Sophia Loren, Bridgett Bardo, Jean Harlowe,
Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Deitrich
You're better, you're better than any I'm seeing
Yes, you were a real beauty queen

And Clark Gable's who I should have been

"Brand New Feeling"

"Brand New Feeling"




It's a Brand New Feeling
That I never ever had before
And I'm always amazed at the range of my emotions

Cause it's a Brand New Feeling
Getting better every minute of the day
And it fits me like a glove
And it rocks me like a boat
On the ocean

Ah who'd a believed it
Oh I must be getting lazy
Spending so much time
With just one girl
Lord this is crazy
But I'm not running anywhere anyhow
I'm staying right here
It'll do for now

Cause it's a Brand New Feeling
That I never ever had before
And I'm always amazed at the range of my emotions

Cause it's a good, good feeling
Getting better every minute of the day
And it fits me like a glove
And it rocks me like a boat
On the ocean

Brand New Feeling
Brand new, Brand New Feeling

Cause you look up and smile
This never happen before
God this is really strange
Let me have some more

Mmmm coconut butter
Pull the curtains tight
Feeling better already
I'm staying in tonight

Cause it's a Brand New Feeling
That I never ever had before
And I'm always amazed at the range of my emotions

Cause it's a good, good feeling
Getting better every minute of the day
And it fits me like a glove
And it rocks me like a boat
On the ocean

Brand New Feeling
Brand new, Brand New Feeling

I said it fits me like a glove
And it rocks me like a boat
On the ocean

It's a brand new
It's a brand new
It's a Brand New Feeling

"Broken Wings"
(originally by Mr. Mister)
(feat. Richard Page)



Baby don't understand
Why we can't just hold on
To each other's hands

This time might be the last
I fear unless I make it all too clear
I need you so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings

Baby I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
To make it right

Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
Need you so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing

Let us in
Let us in

Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in

"Bruce"

"Bruce"



Doctor, doctor you gotta help me yeah
You gotta make it right for me
It seems this other man's name has been following me around
And it just won't let me be
You see I got this name and he's got this name too know
Well they're kinda close only a blind crazy fool
Would think I was him it's like saying green is blue
But let me tell you brother it started being a bother
When he made the cover of Time magazine

I was at this party in the wild-hilled hills
Just the other night
Her name was Shelly I introduced myself
She just smiled and said "all right"
Well we got talkin' and drinkin' wine
And she said she liked my music thought it was fine
She said, "Let's make love, your place or mine"
And in the middle of the passion I was on the borderline
When she called out a name but it wasn't mine

She called me Bruce, Bruce
I can hear her calling Bruce, Bruce
I can hear her calling Bruce, Bruce
I can hear her
My name is Rick I'm gonna stick it to ya babe

And there's this kid walking carrying a guitar
You know I told him that I played
He asked me my name you know I told him
I said it plain as clear as day
Well he seemed really, clearly, sincerely impressed
And as he pulled a piece paper for me to sign from his vest
He said, "I thought Born To Run was one of your best"
Awww wait a minute man, who do you think I am?
He answered, "Mr. Springsteen, you're a famous man."

He called me Bruce, Bruce
I can hear him calling Bruce, Bruce
He called me Bruce, Bruce
I can hear him
My name is Richard gonna hit it to you babe

You know my mama called me long distance yesterday
And as she got off the phone I swear I heard her say

Bye bye Bruce, Bruce
I can hear her calling Bruce, Bruce
She called me Bruce, Bruce
I can hear her
My name is Ricky gonna stick it to you babe

"Calling All Girls"



She was insatiable, you know the type
And she was young, but she was ripe
And she was vicious, and she took a bite

"Carol Of The Bells"

"Carol Of The Bells"



Hark! how the bells
Sweet silver bells
All seem to say,
"Throw cares away."
Christmas is here
Bringing good cheer
To young and old
Meek and the bold

Ding, dong, ding, dong
That is their song
With joyful ring
All caroling
One seems to hear
Words of good cheer
From ev'rywhere
Filling the air

Oh how they pound,
Raising the sound,
O'er hill and dale,
Telling their tale,
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas

On, on they send
On without end
Their joyful tone
To ev'ry home

"Carry Me Away"

"Carry Me Away"



Stop (stop) my head is playing tricks again, won't it ever stop
Baby, help me listen to my heart
And then take me to the top
I'm afraid of love, so afraid of love
And I'm scared to make it right
But I know tonight, that it's my last chance
My last shot at real love and I wanna take it
Last chance at the slow dance, in the big time
And I wanna make it tonight
You're gonna show what love is and why
Between the sweat and the lovin'
The whisper and the cry
I'm so tired of all this shit that I feel
Show me something real

Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I'm in love with you tonight, feels so right
Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I wanna be with you, what can I do
You've got the power, you've got the love
To take me to heaven or to lead me to heartbreak

I (I) spend my life waiting for the future and living in the past
Baby, show me love that I can hold on to
Give me something that'll last
I'm a total wreck but I'm up to my neck in this love I'm in
And I can't do a thing
It's a long shot, a far cry from a real world, me and you, baby
Last chance for the slow dance in the bright lights
And I think that maybe tonight it's gonna happen
Ain't no use in tryin'
Between the sweat and the lovin', the whisper and the cry
I'm so scared of all this feeling I feel
Show me something real

Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I'm in love with you tonight, feels so right
Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I wanna be with you, what can I do
You've got the power, you've got the love
To take me to heaven or to lead me to heartbreak
You've got the power, you've got the love
To take me to heaven or to lead me to heartbreak

Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I'm in love with you tonight, feels so right
Carry me away, baby, carry me away
I wanna be with you, what can I do
You've got the power- you've got the love
To take me to heaven or to lead me to heartbreak

"Celebrate Youth"

"Celebrate Youth"



I can see the older man
Looking at the younger man
I can see the younger man
Looking at the boy

Over there the older woman
Is looking at the younger woman
I can see the younger woman
Looking at the girl

'Cause every man sees
In the younger man the hope
And every woman sees
In the younger girl the dream

Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means

So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight

The future of the world's in the (celebrate)
Hands of children (young ones)
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Teach them right

Looking in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white

I can see the older man
Sometimes in the older man
I still see the young boy
Burning in his eye

And locked up here inside our spirit
Is the child that we are, hear it
Some of us will always fear it
And some will heed the cry

But everybody sees
In the younger one the hope
Everybody sees
In the younger one the dream

Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means

Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight

The future of the world's in the (celebrate)
Hands of children (young ones)
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Teach them right

Looking in a child's face
There's no pride and no disgrace
There's no struggle, there's no fight

Everybody sees
In the younger one the hope
Everybody sees
In the younger one the dream

Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means

Looking in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white

Celebrate youth (celebrate)
