Here we are in the west
And our cars are glistenin'
The bear he roars in the east
But we ain't listenin'
We won't play games in his backyard
But we let him build his wall
We say our god is on our side
Hope he's listenin' to us all

While we talk

He's gettin' dressed, he's lookin' for his thrills
He's gettin' dressed to kill

We got eyes in the stars
But we don't care what they see
We put a man on the moon
We all see it on t.v.
We all protest about his bombs
He hopes we keep it going
And while we rest he's marchin' on
His fuse has started glowin'

While we talk

He's gettin' dressed, he's lookin' for his thrills
He's gettin' dressed to kill

What have you got to hide at home
His arms are stained but never empty
The things that you think you own
Are only for the few
Don't you think it's time, don't you think it's time
We got ready, we got ready

We got right on our side
So our leaders say today
Count the size of the threat
We can slide a different way
Our planes are flyin' in your sky
We know just what they're sayin'
You see the writing on the wall
Your nerves are tearin',frayin'

While we talk

He's gettin' dressed
He's lookin' for his thrills
He's gettin' dressed to kill

He's gettin' dressed
He's lookin' for his thrills
He's gettin' dressed to kill.

So your plane was late
You missed that date
And your horse can't win
So you drink another bottle of gin

And your shares went down
They touched the ground
And your best laid plans
Have slipped right out of your hands

So you think you're fat
Well that's a fact
But your well ran dry
So you had to walk another mile

Think about them, think about them
Think about those who'll never see another year
Think about them
Think about those who never saw

So your car won't start
Needs a special part
But you made your choice
Now you're stuck with all your big boys toys

Now the word's around
You've gone aground
And you've lost your wind
You'll never see your ship come in

Think about them, think about them
Think about those who'll never see another year
Think about them
Think about those who'll never see another year

Mother's, father's
Sister's, brother's
Old man, young man
Whale song, all gone
Where did we go wrong

Think about those who'll never see another
Those who'll never see another
Those who'll never see
Think about them, think about them.

Moonlight eyes I see you smile
It lightens up my night
Your smile takes all the fight out of me
Moonlight eyes I hear you cryin'
It robs me of my pride
There's nothing I can hide from moonlight eyes
I got no control
You just roll me like the sea
Oh moonlight eyes

Mooonlight eyes you're grown now
I'll soon be out of touch
You'll lose that innocence
That cost so much
Moonlight eyes you'll find your pain
You'll say that I'm all wrong
There'll always be a place where you belong
I got no control
You just roll me like the sea
Oh moonlight eyes
Tell your sweet lies only to me, only to me

Moonlight eyes you soothe me
Moonlight eyes you're easy on my soul
Moonlight eyes you are the reason
The meaning in the words
The words to every song I've ever heard
Paralysed in sweet surprise
Your every wrong is right
One look into your night
Oh moonlight eyes
I got no control
You just roll me like the sea
Oh moonlight eyes
Tell your sweet lies only to me, only to me
Moonlight eyes.

The phone call was wrong
The i.b.m.'s have already gone
Talkin's too late
The future has ended now
Can't change our fate

So sorry now
But that don't change a thing anyhow
Let the games begin
The dealer laid hands out that no one can win

What made us this way
Something I'm doing or something I say
But could it be a fact
That I never thought I'd get caught in the act

And I, I don't know why I still keep
Hangin' around when I know that it's time
Popped the silo
Pushed the button
It's the big one this time

Doctor strangelove, we're all in your movie now
You get no change love
Your bill is too high

The threat's on it's way
The package from hell that you ordered today
Pray to your sign
Your wish has been granted this time

And I, I don't know why I still keep
Hangin' around when I know that it's time
Popped the silo
Pushed the button
It's the big one this time.

Let me be your leader
Let me have control
The way I see it
It's got to be right for you

I could be your pilot
Through the stormy seas
The way you see it
It's just a case of trust in me

I could be your hero
I'll be your piece of mind
The way that I see it
It's got to be good for you

I wanna be your brother
If you need a friend
The way you see it
It's got to be right by me

Winners--losers
Takers--users
What do you see in your crystal ball for you?
Do you see an old wound fade into the blue?

I will be your lifeline
If your ship goes down
The way that I see it
You've got to have faith in me

I wanna be your partner
Through the darkest nights
The way you see it
It's always just you and me

Midnight screamers
Daytime dreamers
What do you see in your crystal ball for you?
Do you see an old wound fade into the blue?

Puppets in the dance are we
Or do we call the tune
We're keeping up our ratings
While we feed you wreck and ruin
Thespians of revolution, money in the bank
With our college boy lisps

Brown ale gurus Sunday supplement priests
Lunch with urban guerillas
On expense account receipts
Opinionated interviews
From an informed source
Can't tell you no names
Secret of course

We are the people
I am you, you are me
We are the people, I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people
We are the people

We're on the side of politicians
Misquote their lies
Building up those favors
We collect on bye and bye
On the side of winners
We can change with the fees
Give us your proposition
We're only here to please

We are the people
I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people
We are the people

Oh, please defend me
Don't ask for my surrender
We are the kings, you're the pretenders
You walk and I'll talk
Stop ringing my doorbell with questions

Subscribe--view us--listen to us
We've got the plan
We've got all the answers
And we've got your man
We can change the format
If the sales go down
And we got girls for everyone
Yellow, pink or brown

We are the people...

She was my guiding light
She was my day and night
I hung on every word, no matter wrong or right
She could raise me up to heights I've never seen

And the coming of age is every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream

She was the first for me
She wet my thirst for me
If I was feeling down
She was a nurse for me
She could take me up to heights I've never been
And the coming of age is every young man's dream

Oh, oh, she's every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream

Oh, tu es toujours dans mon coeur
I like to raise my glass
I like to praise the past
Some things go on forever
Some things never last
She could raise me up
She was my fantasy
And the coming of age is every young man's dream

Oh, oh she's every young man's dream
Oh, oh she's every young man's dream
Oh, eres siempre en mi mente

She was my guiding light
She was my day and night
I hung on every word, no matter wrong or right
She could raise me up to heights I've never seen
And the coming of age is every young man's dream...

I don't want to take you prisoner
Or do it against your will
I wouldn't ever take you over
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you

I would never leave you stranded
Alone on some point of view
Couldn't ever hold you under
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you

I know that the world
All it's diamonds and it's pearls
Could never buy you
Could never even try to

Wouldn't ever bring you sadness
Leave you standing in the rain
Never thought you would be easy
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you

I know that the world
All it's diamonds and it's pearls
Could never buy you
Could never even try to

If you want to go out
You've got to take her out, cocaine
And if you want to get down
Down on the ground, cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie, cocaine

Well if you've had bad news
You want to kick your blues, cocaine
And if your day is done
But you just got to run on, cocaine
She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie, cocaine

Feeling is gone but you just
Got to ride on, cocaine
But don't forget this fact
You just can't get it back, cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie, cocaine

She don't lie
She don't lie
She don't lie, cocaine

Victoria, Victoria I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!

It's been a long time now since high school days
But when I'm with you, darling you still amaze me
No one could ever come before ya
God knows how much I still adore ya

My Victoria, Victoria, I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!

Hey little girl when we first met
I was shaking so hard you really made me sweat
You opened up my eyes and showed me
You took me by surprise and floored me

We walked to school together
Just a boy and a girl
We talked through all kinds of weather
About giving our love a whirl

Do you remember at the high school dance
When the beach boys sang about good vibrations

My Victoria, Victoria, I could love you for a hundred years
And still want more of ya!

We walked to school together
Just a boy and a girl
We talked through all kinds of weather
About giving our love a whirl

We were cruisin' the strip every Friday night
Headin' for the beach in a two tone torc flight
First time I turned and saw you
God only knows I love you
Never anyone before you
Don't you know I still adore you

My Victoria, Victoria ...
