"Spin It Again"

"Spin It Again"


Even a simple man with simple expectations
Can be made to understand
There's an easy way to rise above one's station
And all it takes is one strong hand

Spin it again, take a little from the middle
Let it ride on the inside and spin it again
One more time, spin it again, you can win it if you're in it
Make a play for the outside and spin it again, hold on tight

Somethin' tells me that for you it's all or nothing
And in the past you've felt the sting
Well nothing ventured, nothing gained's what I say
So throw your hat into the ring

Sometimes it's just the roll of the dice
That separates the real men from the boys
And sometimes you won't have to think twice
'Cause it's time to make some big big noise

Spin it again, take a little from the middle
Let it ride on the inside and spin it again
One more time, spin it again, you can win it if you're in it
Make a play for the outside and spin it again, hold on tight

They tell you that a shortcut
Is the longest way around
But I believe you gotta take a chance
If it's the only game in town

'Cause it's time to make some big big noise

Spin it again, take a little from the middle
Let it ride on the inside and spin it again
One more time, spin it again, you can win it if you're in it
Make a play for the outside and spin it again, hold on tight

Spin it again, take a little from the middle
Let it ride on the inside and spin it again
One more time, spin it again, you can win if you're in it
Make a play for the outside and spin it again

"Stand Up"

"Stand Up"


Sometimes it's not so easy
Sometimes life can be so cruel
Every time you think you're winning
Someone changes all the rules
But the odds are in your favour
When you know you're on a roll
When you know just what you're playing for
So now's the time to take control
They try and break you
Make you compromise
Just look them in the eyes
And tell 'em you'll not take it anymore
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening
Keep the dream alive
Don't listen when they tell you
What you're doing can't be done
You don't have to be what they tell you
All you have to be is strong
They try and break you
Make you compromise Just look them in the eyes
And tell 'em you'll not take it anymore
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Show this world what you are made of
Keep the dream alive
Stand up
Tell anyone who may be listening
Keep the dream alive

"Starting All Over"

"Starting All Over"


There hasn't been a single day go by
That I haven't wondered what it would be like
If I could just stop thinking 'bout yesterday
'Cause I know all of my tomorrows start today
Sometimes I sit back and wonder
if a little temptation is all I really need
[Chorus:]
We're on a road that we've never been before
Where in the world will it end?
Now I'm face to face with my point of no return
I'm starting all over again
I still remember hearing someone say
That all good things come to those who wait
But over and over I've been told
That patience is a barricade
So I'm still waiting to be shown the way
Sometimes I sit back and wonder
If a little temptation is all I need
[Chorus x2]

"Steamroller"

"Steamroller"


You got my motor running
Slide me into gear
You don't need directions
We're not driving far from here
I'm out here waiting for someone just like you
Had to leave my lights on
Now my battery needs some juice
I want you to remember me
So rub my bumper nice and clean
If it's good for you, it sounds good to me
Don't you want to ride a....
Steamroller - I'm built for comfort not for speed
Steamroller - Oh I've got everything that I need
Steamroller - Take me for a ride
Steamroller - Sit up, sit down, sit up
Sit down on me and drive
Where the road looks bumpy
You'll always have the key
If you think I'm rusty
Just pour a little oil on me
When I start to rumble
You know I'm on my way
As long as you are driving
Oh, I'll do anything you say

"Step Inside"

"Step Inside"


Beyond your eyes
Feeding your mind? Step inside
Without a trace
No hiding place, step inside

Is it your curiosity?
Will the answers set you free?
You don't have to ask me why
Just look inside

Never losing your dignity
But there's something you gotta see
Don't let time pass you by
Just look inside

Under control
Never let go, step inside

Is it your curiosity?
Will the answers set you free?
You don't have to ask me why
Just look inside

Never losing your dignity
But there's something you gotta see
Don't let time pass you by
Just look inside

One door
There's a chance you take it
Cross that borderline
You'll wonder how

The time has faded
In your state of mind
Someday you will find
Yourself alone

You will find yourself
You will find yourself

"Streets Of Gold (Chapter 14)"

"Streets Of Gold (Chapter 14)"


Please stop-We can't do that
Why not?-We've done the math
They need air-There's lots of time
You don't care-My hands are tied
Time's up-You can't say that
Why not?-You move too fast
You won't change-Why can't you see, it's part of our history

[Chorus:]
On the streets of gold
Where everybody has too much money
On these streets of gold
You've always got something to hide

No more-We know we should
Why war?-The money's good
It must stop-We'll find a way
You might not-What can I say?
The reason-Religion's one
You teach them-When they are young
They won't change-Why can't you see, that's how it has always been

[Chorus]

You say we need some changes
Why would we do that?

Please stop-We can't do that
Why not?-We've done the math
You won't change-Why can't you see, it's part of our history

[Chorus]

"Take A Chance"

"Take A Chance"


I can see by the look in your eyes
You're searching your heart once again
And you want me to be there tonight
but I don't know if I can do it
We've already been through it

And now too many days have gone by
Too many nights, I've sat, wondering why
Don't you know that you're wasting your time
What you want is so hard to find

So how can I - take a chance on you?
One more time
Why should I - take a chance on you?
One more time

Every time I see you come around
You know a part of me can't turn you down
Now you want me to be there tonight
But I don't know If I can do it
I've already been through it

So how can I - take a chance on you?
One more time
And why should I - take a chance on you?
One more time

I wanna know what makes you tick
I wanna know
I wanna know what makes you tick

So tell me - how can I-take a chance on you?
One more time
And why should I - take a chance on you?
One more time
So how can I - take a chance on you?
One more time
And why should I - take a chance on you?
One more time
So how can I - take a chance on you?
One more time
And why should I - take a chance on you?
One more time

"Take It Or Leave It"

"Take It Or Leave It"


Once again he lays his pen down
And rubs his tired eyes
A few small words are all he needs
To help him win the prize
Sometimes he finds it so damn hard
There's so many different ways
To say exactly what he means
Within a simple phrase

[Chorus:]
Take it or leave it
You're going to have to read between the lines
Take it or leave it
It's got to come out different every time
Take it or leave it
You're going to have to read between the lines
Take it or leave it
It's got to come out different every time

Taking time with every line
Being careful no to stray
It's easy to interpret this
A hundred different ways
Sometimes he finds it so damn hard
To be more clever than before
Yet knowing how to satisfy
He leaves you wanting more

[Chorus]

"Taxman"
(originally by The Beatles)

"Taxman"
(originally by The Beatles)



Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman

Should be fixed percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Oh, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet
Taxman!

Don't ask me what I want it for
Ha, ha, Mister Clinton
If you don't wanna pay some more
Ha, Ha, Mister Kohl

So my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Oh, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me

You say it's your birthday
We're havin' a birthday

"That's As Far As I'll Go"

"That's As Far As I'll Go"


You're running scared, you're not prepared
that's undeniable
Shows you how much I know
I will admit to bein' a bit
less than reliable
That's as far as I'll, go
Just look at me, I thought my dreams
were unachievable
Shows how much I know
I've had my share of wear & tear
It's inconceivable
That's as far as I'll go

[Bridge:]
And what if all that I say is a lie
You would never know
so let's keep it simple and we'll do all right
That is all I know

Call me naïve, but I believe
I'm private property
Shows you how much I know
Maybe a word will help much to curb
your curiosity
That's as far as I'll go

[Chorus:]
You know all you need to know
That's as far as I will go
You know all you need to know
That's as far as I'll go

So let me guess, I shouldn't question
your sincerity
Show you how much I know
And should you ask I'll raise a glass
to mediocrity
That's as far as I'll go

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Just look at me, I thought my dreams
were unachievable
Shows you how much I know
I've had my share of wear & tear
It's inconceivable
That's as far as I'll go

[Chorus]
