Love Leads To Madness


Do I feel alright?
I'll go antwhere you say you wanna to take me
Save me, run away-ay-ay, steal away-ay-ay
'Cause I feel alright
I'll do anything you say you wanna make me
Take me, far away-ay-ay, run away-ay-ay

We've been up all night
Tryin' to avoid a situation
Hold me, let me feel your way
'Cause I wanna stay
Let them all start talkin'
We won't give ourselves away

Our love leads to madness
Our love leads to madness
Our love leads to madness

Do you feel alright?
An' can you see me when you're lookin' in your mirror
Crazy, try to find a way, so your heart don't pay
Run away-ay-ay
Don't you give yourself away

Our love leads to madness
Our love leads to madness
Our love leads to madness
Our lova leads to madness

Boys In The Band


Hey, you, who are you talkin' to
Hey, boy, haven't you heard the news
No one can fight more than these boys
No one can bite more than these boys

Hey, hose, who do you want to know
Hey, punk, get off my case and go
No one can fix more than these boys
No one can kick more than these boys

The boys in the band

You can back down
Yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time to close your face

Hey, now, what have you got that's new
Come on boy what are you trying to prove
No one can take more than these boys
'Cause no one can shake more than these boys

The boys in the band

You can break down
Yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time that you knew your place

Come on break down
'Cause yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time to close your face

You Love Another


Don't wanna live she said
No more to give she said
I can't forgive she said

You love another, you love another

Can't live alone she said
Left off the phone she said
Can't face the storm she said

You love another, you love another

Don't make me cry she said
Just let me die she said
Kiss me goodbye she said

You love another, you love another

Don't take the blame she said
And I can go insane she said
Never the same she said

You love another, you love another

You love another, you love another
You love aother--my heart is tearing

You love another
You love another--no longer caring

You love another
You love another--my heart is tearing

You love another--no longer caring
You love another

Gatecrash


Well, me and my buddies are goin' to a party tonight
And we don't care if we ain't got no invite
We don't care if our face don't fit
Gonna grab a little whiskey, grab a little......

Gatecrash, gatecrash
Get yourself ready for a real bash
Hide your ladies,'cause we'll be talkin' trash
Snort your cocaine, smoke your grass
So get yourself ready for our gatecrash...

You don't really want to know but we're still going to appear
We've got Elvis snarls and arrive in biker gear
We don't care if you call the fuzz
By the time they get there we'll be gone with a buzz

Gatecrash, gatecrash
Get yourself ready for a real bash
Hide your ladies, we're gonna cause a smash
Snort your cocaine, smoke your grass
So get yourself ready for our gatecrash...

Gatecrash, gatecrash
Get yourself ready for a real bash
Hide your ladies, we're gonna move in fast
Snort your cocaine, smoke your grass
So get yourself ready for our gatecrash...

Well, me and my buddies are going to your party tonight
We don't care if we got no invite
We don't care if we cause a splash
Gonna drink a lot of whiskey, grab a little...
                             
Gatecrash, gatecrash
Get yourself ready for a real bash
Hide your ladies,'cause we'll be talkin' trash
Snort your cocaine, smoke your grass
So get yourself ready for our gatecrash...

Games


Look at you
You're the son of the neighborhood strays
You can walk in your prison for days
But you'll never get anywhere
It's a pain
But the shine on the edge of your blade
Couldn't give all the waiting away
You were recognized everywhere
Turn away
You are not just ashamed of yourself
You're a part of the scenery,damned to hell

Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for some of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery
It's our job, you see

You'll agree
There is no point in letting you go
We can wait till the end of the show
Till the audience fades away
Turn around
You can laugh at the mess in your room
It's a nightmare that never can end for you

Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for part of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery
It's our job you see
                             
You'll agree
There is no point in letting you go
We can wait till the end of the show
Till the audience fades away
Turn around
You can laugh at the mess in your room
It's a nightmare that never can end for you

Can't you see
We are not going to play at your games
We are not going to ask you for names
Or for part of your history
Did you know
That your father said it's all wrong
Just to keep it going along
It's a part of our mystery.

Dream On


Dream on
Though it's hard to tell
Though you're foolin' yourself
Dream on
                             
You can hide away
There is nothing to say, so dream on
Dream on
Though it's hard to tell
Though you're foolin' yourself, dream on

You can laugh at me because I'm crying
You can tell your friends how much
I begged you to stay
You can live your fantasy without me
But you'll never know how much I needed you

Dream on
It's so easy for you
Though I'm broken in two, dream on
Dream on
You can never see
What you're doing to me, so dream on

You can cross your heart and still be lyin'
You can count the reasons why you've thrown it away
You can dream your life away without me
But you'll never know how much I needed you

You can laugh at me because I'm crying
You can tell your friends how much
I begged you to stay 
You can live your fantasy without me
But you'll never know how much I needed you

Dream on
It's so easy for you
Though I'm broken in two, dream on
Dream on
You can never see
What you're doin' to me, so dream on
Dream on
Though it's hard to tell
Though you're foolin' yourself,dream on
Dream on

Back To The Trenches


Presidents and peace spreading poets
Getting gunned down in the streets
Shown to us on our prime time screens
For our tea time treat
Lunatics we voted for denying
Everything that they swore
We sit around and shout about it
But we don't do nothing more

Drafted for police action
But they decided on a war
Telling us we were saving mankind
Why don't you ask Cambodia
We were solving it with marijuana
We were sure that we could
Always leavin' it to someone else
Just knocking on wood

We're goin' back to the trenches
We're goin' back to the trenches

Well you say you got a say so 
But you're knowin' that it ain't so
And you turn away
You think it's safer to ignore it
But the score is your children have to pay
Everybody wants better
Everybody talkin' 'bout it
Are we wastin' time
Gotta stop only lookin', talkin'
We're all guilty of the crime

We're goin' back to the trenches
We're goin' back to the trenches

We gotta move, we got everything to lose
We gotta move, we got everything to lose

We're all headed for the front
But everybody's fightin' for a good address
It's time we made the changes
Or we'll be burnin' with the rest
We just ain't communicatin' and I don't
Mean conversations on the telephone
When Nero starts to fiddle this time
There's a lot more gonna burn than Rome

we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches
we're goin' back to the trenches

Lonely In The Night


I'm runnin' tired of this deception
I have no wish to play this game
Too many times a bad connection
And you're still holding me away
We're living under false pretenses
Foolin' ourselves, believe the lies
I could not take one more rejection
You wanted more but would not try

Something's gone wrong with us
Something ain't right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night

We're trapped within our own defenses
The walls we made all look the same
There is no love without affection
We've come to far to break the chain

Something's gone wrong with us
Something ain't right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night

I'm growing tired of this deception
We fall apart and wonder why?
Our hearts now pull in new directions
We don't know how to say goodbye

Something's gone wrong with us
Something ain't right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night

Something's gone wrong with us
Something ain't right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night

Preservation


I'm preserving myself with make-up
Lookin' in the mirror
I'm preserving my life, I can take it
Shinin' in the spotlight

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror
Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it all off
Every night

I'm reserving my rights, reputation
Livin' in a movie, it's keepin' me lookin' right
When the secret is out to the public
Seein' is believin', they still wanna be me at night
When the parts get shorter, the parties get harder
But that's alright

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror
Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it off
Every night

They're linin' up to make their entrance
When the word's out I'm in town, they're not nice girls
But that's alright
They're lookin' so much better when the lights go down
But nice girls is just a frame of mind

Preservation, lookin' in the mirror
Preservation, but they don't know that I'm scrapin' it off
Every night

Take The Rap


You were lookin' at your mother
So you went and told your father
Daddy don't say nothin' he's got plenty in his past
Changed your way of thinkin'
So you started drinkin'
And you got arrested for drivin' blind

Take the rap, take the rap
It's gonna break your back, it's a fact, take the rap

It was lined up on the mirror
And you just started shavin'
Didn't know what you were smokin'
Cigarette came from a friend
Judge said you're delinquent
You don't want to think it
So you put your head down, started servin' time

Take the rap, take the rap
It's gonna break your back, take the rap

Tried to talkbut I got nothin' to prove--why you want to?
Tried to run they took away my shoes--why you want to?
Why you want me to take the rap?

Take the rap, take the rap
It's gonna break your back, take the rap

Well your damned if iron bars'll
Keep you rottin' in a prison
Hell is lookin' better 'cause you'll
Never get to heaven
See your chance and take it
Sure you're gonna make it
You're prepared to take it 'cause you're never gonna...

Take the rap, take the rap
It's gonna break your back, it's a fact, take the rap

Mexico


One more promise soaked in rye whiskey
One more word that bites the dust on some bar room floor
I'm the man who travels 'round doing...
Hey, we don't talk about that
I'll get the favor done for you
No one will ever know
                             
Then I'll run to Mexico

Cold as stone my eyes fall on another
Just another name that's runnin' through my mind
At your request I'll do whatever you require
You give me the light, I supply the fire

Then I'll burn for Mexico

Pretty senorita, she lies to me
Smiles sweetly in the morning when I wake up cold sweating
'Cause some day I'll be in the sights

One more call when someone finds a target
Only guarded whispers never mentions names
Money on the line will be just fine...
You'll never be involved
And even if a clue shows you'll never know

'Cause I'll be in Mexico
