I know that she don't like me
She knows that I don't care
I could mistreat and bad mouth that woman
Turn around and she'd be there
She ain't got no pride she don't even try to hide
What she does
It's a buzz

Chorus
To be seen in your limosine
She'll do strange bedroom scenes
She likes rock'n'roll, she would give her all
Just to get into it
Her head's full of rock'n'roll dreams
She's exactly what she seems
She likes rock'n'roll, she would give her all
Just to get into it

Hangin' around hotel bars
Droppin' someone's name
Usin' those lines that you heard before
Playin' the same old games
She ain't got no style
Eyes that never smile
Feel like your on trial
She ain't worth while

Chorus

She wants to interview
Says the world should know your views
But how can you talk about someone you love
With someone you can see right through
She's just comin' on
Tryin' to pretend that it's
Just a yawn
Ah, come on

Chorus

Chorus
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you

Someone woke me up again last night
Talkin' to me about my last time
Don't tell me I know it's late
Please, please lay me down a line
Pick me up before I start to fall
Never let your dreams grow small

May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you
May the sun, the sun shine bright
May the sun shine bright on you

Talkin' to my lover, she was out
It was independence day
Don't be nervous, you can hold me tight
Someone turned the light out on the stairs
Was it just the wind I heard
Just another helping hand

Chorus

Take me back down the yellow brick road
Let me get my ticket to your heart
Stranger's hidin' on my land
Could it be it's keepin' me apart
Give me time don't you gimme no love
Let the sunshine in your heart

Chorus

Old man, don't tell me what you did in your day
I got problems of my own on the way
Look you now, where the locusts abound
Pray they don't feed on your sacred ground

Vibrations, are burning my hands
Slowly walking, stalking through these crazy lands
Defending the need, with a silent scream
For another time, for another dream

Chorus
Jack boots, hi-jacks
Ray guns and spray guns
We got them all for free
Look to the stars for consolation
It could be there lookin' at me
Send me down a simple solution
Send me down a simple solution now

No cheap-o, clean-o, is gonna wash away my blues
I need a good friend that's gonna give me some clues
The one on the cross, he almost had it boss
He was really spreading the news
Ah, but the destruct mutt, he's back in business
He ain't about to lose

Jackboots, hi-jacks
Ray guns and spray guns
We got them all for free
Look to the stars for consolation
It could be there lookin' at me
It could be there lookin' at me
Send me down a simple solution
Send me down a simple solution now

And the price-for life
Is one more run on that chicken wire
As the hero returns
With eyes of fire
To another man to man, so damn you man!

Old man don't tell me what you did in your day
I got problems of my own on the way
So look you now, where the locusts abound
Prat they don't feed on your sacred ground.

Chorus

Walkin' alone at night in the cold rain
Wond'rin if I will see you again
In some corner light
Runnin' down the road in the warm sun
Dreaming that I am still the one
Resting by your side

Chorus
You took the road to fortune and fame
Your name in lights
I want you to know I still feel the same
Star, I still love you
I still love you

Remembering when you played me that first song
The first show that you asked me along
Just to be around
Workin' so hard till you got that first break
You said you could turn them around
Give them something new

Chorus

Got that photograph of you and me
I hear your voice on the radio
Will I ever lay with you again

Nobody planned it we just seemed to drift now
I always seem to have to leave
Just as you come around
But someday soon girl I just got to see
I just gotta find out
If we still have time

Chorus

What gives you this crazy thought
That you can talk to my woman
What's your claim to fame
What gives you have a mind
To even think her name
What's your claim to fame?
What's your name?

Gonna give you just one more chance
To make amends to my woman
You got yourself to blame
Only thing that's left to do
Is to think real hard about what you're gonna do
About your crazy game
What's your name?

What's your name?
Who the hell do you think you are?
What's your game?
Are you some top of the pops star?

What gives you this crazy thought
That you think you can talk to my woman
What's your claim to fame?
What gives you half a mind
To even think her name
What's your claim to fame?
What's your name?

If you wanna walk out the door
You don't need a key
If you don't wanna come by no more
I'll set you free

Whatever you want babe
Whatever you need
Just as long as you know babe
What you're doin' to me
What you're doin' to me

If you wanna say it's a day
I won't disagree
I would never stand in your way
That wouldn't be me

Whatever you want babe
Whatever you need
Just as long as you know babe
What it's doin' to me
What it's doin' to me

I would never tie you down
You've always been free to leave
If you wanna make it goobye
That's O.K. with me
Got so tired of asking you why
I'll just let it be

Whatever you want babe
Whatever you need
Just as long as you know babe
What it's doin' to me

And if I try to find a reason
For all the things I do
Would you try to understand, the way I am
And how I care for you
Would you give me your undivided attention
And the benefit of your doubt?
Ooh!, ooh!

You want me to be your friend
Stick by you through thick or thin

What's in it for me
What's in it for me?

You'd like me to deal you in
Hold your hand right to the end

What's in it for me
What's in it for me?

You want me to be your friend
You want me and you want him
This ain't for me
This ain't for me

You want someone you can trust
You want love, you don't want much

What's in it for me
What's in it for me

You want my name on the line
I don't feel that way inclined

What's in it for me
What's in it for me?

You want me to be your friend
You want me and you want him
This ain't for me
This ain't for me.

Stopped in fright at a traffic light
Red eyes staring me out
Strange feelings comin' down tonight
Can't quite figure it out
Fit your alibi before your crime
No need in serving no time
Case you scam, or you'll get rammed
Stretched out on that line

Hangin' out at a shooting site
Cold turkey calling a tune
All the answers coming late tonight
Try to look like you're immune
In your eyes you can feel the heat
But the feelings outa touch
You're working on just a holding on
You're hurtin' oh so much

Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel the city heartbeat, can you feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel your own heartbeat
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?

Call off your dogs 'cause I am no fox
Turn off your white light
My alibi is rock tight
Your night stick, cheap trick is pullin' me in
Your monkey suit, stage fright, black and white blue suit, law suit
Is wearin', mighty thin

Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel the city heartbeat, can you feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel your own heartbeat
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?

Borstal boy laughing at justice now he's a star
And the perfume he wore lingers on the king's road
Like a whore
Legs wrapped around a plastic stool
He's making more in one day
Than you've had... hot, hot dinners

Call out your legions, the savior is loose
Telling true stories you know that ain't no use
Your empire is burning you can feel the smell
Your hot rod, space pod, tax relief, kill machine
Is looking mean
And should be working well

Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel your own heartbeat
Can you feel the pulse in the streets
Can you feel your own heartbeat
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?
