CRANK IT UP
The fire is burning bright
I'm radiating light
The energy is brighter than the sun
The power's building fast
I'm reachin’ critical mass
Ain’t nothing left of you
When the blasting's done
Crank it up yeah
Crank it up yeah
Crank it up
Crank it up
Crank it up
Burn it up
It's time to rock and roll
So strap yourselves in tight
Get ready for the flight
I'm gonna take you
On this trip in sound
When you see the show
I think you oughta know
Gonna blow you up so high
You'll never come down
Ooooohh, LOOKOUT
This spaceman's getting high
I told you I could fly
Don't look down
‘Cause the earth is all you'll see
Listen to the song
You know you can't go wrong
Rock and roll is all
You'll ever need

FACE TO LACE
Dance for me baby
Hold me tight
Love me baby
All through the night
I love you girl
Oooo can't you see?
You make me hot with what you got
And what you got is me
I wanna get you
I wanna get you
Face to face
Face to face
Face to face
I Sing like an angel
When I feel your touch
You sin like a devil
You're just too much
I wanna get you
I wanna get you
Face to face
Face to face
Face to face
I wanna get you
I wanna get you
Face to face

Reality is a Crutch

REALITY IS A CRUTCH
I hear my train at the station
Nobody wants to ride
From the looks on all of their faces
You'd think somebody died
So wait a minute there baby
Don’tcha tell me how I should live
Don't bring me down
With your petty world
Unless you got blood to give
(Chorus)
Reality is a crutch
It don't mean much
Just an excuse
For being outta touch
Some of us see the skies above
Some hide from the light
Some try to make you see
Things just their way
And tell you wrong from right
I'm serving notice baby in this song
You better, ya better just let me be
I don't need you
Don't need your stupid rules
I don't need your reality
(Repeat Chorus)
Easy for you to criticize
And pass judgement on me
Could it be that I frighten you
Am I just a little too free?
Reality is a crutch
It don't mean much
Just an excuse
For being obtuse
Just an excuse
For being obtuse

YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE
It's about time to begin the dream
It's about time for me to be seen
Think it's time to bare my soul
I'm gonna show ya
How to rock and roll
I won't take no for an answer this time
Won't be the victim of your narrow minds
You think I'll bow down just to survive?
That's a laugh
You'll never take me alive
You been trying for all these years
To crush my dreams with your stupid fears
But I won't quit I won't take a dive
You'll never take me
I went to school to learn the rules
Grow up content, a happy fool
But I was too twisted for you to control
Now I'm back to steal your soul
Come on

SCREAMER ON THE ROCKS
Out on the rocks
He has nowhere to turn
No place to hide
No one to help him
See the ways of the world
To keep him satisfied
Here comes the tide
Slowly drifting in
The end is his to be
Out on the rocks
He is screaming now
As he melts into the sea
He’s screaming out loud
But no one will hear
Nothing left now
But his soul to fear
His hands reach out
As he looks to the sky
Now he’s screaming
“Tell me why!?”
Mad laughter’s ringing out
through head
The crying ocean
His dying bed
His soul cries out
As he looks to the sky
Still he’s screaming
“Tell me why!?”
Sounding fury
The angry waves
come to take him away
No more screaming
His peace of mind f
ound in his dying day

Hold On

HOLD ON
I'm just a boy with a dream
Fighting odds worse than they seem
Coulda been the son of any man
Grew up playin’ in a rock and roll band
I'm just a boy from a small-town home
Got tired of wrestling myself alone
Threw my life to the winds of chance
Always knew I could sing and dance
(Chorus)
Hold on to tomorrow
Hold on to tomorrow
He's just a fool wasting time
He thinks he'll make it, he must be blind
A thousand times he hears these words
From all the sheep running in their herds
(Repeat Chorus)
We're all just poor boys with a dream
Fighting odds worse than they seem
We're just the same as any man
Except we're playing
In a rock and roll band
(Repeat Chorus)

A Time for Dreaming

TIME FOR DREAMING
Morning drifts on through the night
A time for dreaming
Lovers kiss and then they part
A time for feeling
The singers sing
The dancers dance
And life goes on
There was a girl
With a golden smile
But now she's gone
She's gone....
Reasons come, reasons go
They leave me cold
I get so tired of empty nights
Lives bought and sold......
Lady Luck has passed me up once more
I hear her creeping around to my back door
She got the goods and I
I got the need, oh yeah yeah now
She waitin’ in the shadow
Just to watch me bleed
Singing songs and lying awake at night
I'm gonna stand up
Stand up and fight!
Lady, Lady Luck smile on me
I know your love has got to be
Let me live or let me go my way
Lady Fate gonna have her way
Baby I need to feel some love tonight
I need your love, I'm gonna be a'ight
You got the goods and I
I got the need, oh yeah yeah now
Lift me from the darkness
Come on and set me free
She got the goods and I
I got the need oh yeah yeah now
Time for dreamin’
What tomorrow can be

STARCHILD
Dig the Starchild baby
Angel's cryin’ earthly tears
No more fears children
Gonna be what has to be
Fly on home
With arms held high
Pierce the sky
Yeah, gonna be
Live or die
I remember living in dreams
Flying free on blue light beams
Once I had a different face
Once I ran a different race
Now I stand on foreign shores
Reachin’ backwards for closed doors
Memories that haunt my mind
Life and love left behind
Time and time and time again
I suffered at the hands of men
Silently yearning to be free
Knowing that it would never be
Stars lie blackened at your feet
Children dying in your streets
Seems to me you've come undone
You thought that I was the crazy one
I need hope
Just like you
I need your love
Just to see me through
Time will tell
If there's reason to go on
Then you'll have
A memory and a song
I remember living in dreams
Flying free on blue light beams
Seems to me you've come undone
You thought that I was the crazy one

BROKEN LIGHT
Oh no! I can't take it
Can't you see
That it's drivin’ me mad
I can't believe you won't listen
I done my best
Gave it all that I had
Hard times, I've had it
Taken all that one man can
Broken light and laughter
All that's left
‘Cause I made my stand
Cry out
I'm waiting for a time to come
It's over
Time no more for sorrow
Stand aside tomorrow
(Chorus)
Broken light and laughter
All that's left
‘Cause I made my stand
Bittersweet dreams and memories
Life dealt the cards
So I'll just play my hand
Smile for me
Give me hope
Can't you see that it just ain't cool
Cryin out, I can't take it
Turnin me wild into a crazy fool
(Repeat Chorus)
.....gonna play it good...
