Rock! Rock! Till You Drop

(Clark/Savage/Lange/Elliott)
Hold onto your hat, hold onto your heart
Ready, get set to tear this place apart
Don't need a ticket, only place in town
That'll take you up to heaven and never bring you down
Anything goes!
Anything goes!
(Oh)
Women to the left, women to the right
There to entertain and take you thru the night
So grab a little heat and come along with me
'Cos your mama don't mind what your mama don't see
Anything goes!
(That's right)
(Come on)
Anything goes!
Ooh oh
I say Rock! Rock! till you drop
Rock! Rock! never stop
Rock! Rock! till you drop
I say Rock! Rock! to the top
Ridin' into danger, laughin' all the way
Fast, free and easy, livin' for today
Gotta lip service, get it while you can
Hot, sweat'n'nervous love on demand
Anything goes!
(Oh)
Anything goes!
(All night long)
I say Rock! Rock! till you drop
Come on Rock! Rock! never stop
You gotta Rock! Rock! till you drop
(Oh)
Rock! Rock! to the top
Oh yeah!
Let's shout!
Rock! Rock! give it to me
It's what I got goin' thru me
Don't ever stop, (whoah) do it to me
Yeah, Rock! Rock! You really move me
Whoah yeah
Here we go!
Rock! Rock! till you drop
Oh Rock! Rock! never stop
Come on Rock! Rock! till you drop
We're gonna rock ya till your drop it and take it to the top

(Tonight)
Too loud man, too loud
Photograph

Huh!
I'm outta luck, outta love
Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I wanna touch
I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy
Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough
I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child
Oh
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy
Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done
I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
You've gone straight to my head
Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done
I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
I wanna touch you
Oh!
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
Your photograph
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
It's time you brought one to me
(Photograph)
I wanna know
(Photograph)
I wanna know
(Photograph)
Oh I wanna know
(Photograph)
I wanna touch
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
Stagefright

I said a-welcome to my show
It's just a-you and me baby
We got the whole damn night to go
You're holding out on me, while I'm on fire
If you can't stand the heat, then you should try
Victim of my vices, you know you are
You skate on ice to paradise, stairway to the stars
Stagefright all night, won't you let go
All night stagefright, on with the show
You come on like a lady dressed to kill
Never thought you could be caught, but you will
A little understanding, a little love
A headline act around the back, is what I'm thinkin' of
Stagefright all night, won't you let go
All night stagefright, on with the show
Stagefright all night, you're dream starts today
All night stagefright, is only a heartbeat away
Whoah!
Uh!
You're going for my head, you're going down
Gettin' good at being bad, you're hangin' round
A fun inspired asylum, toys for the boys
Love on the rocks, forget-me-nots, you got no choice
Stagefright all night, oh won't you let go
All night stagefright, get on with the show
Stagefright all night, you're dream starts today
All night stagefright, is only a heartbeat away
Stagefright all night (Whoah) why won't you let go?
All night stagefright, get on with the show
Too Late

Somewhere in the distance I hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
The lady 'cross the street she shuts out the night
There's a cast of thousands waiting as she turns out the light
But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, too late, too late
London boys are gazing as the girls go hand in hand
With a pocket full of innocence, their entrance is grand
And the Queen of the dream stands before them all
She stretches out her hand as the curtains start to fall
But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, it's too late
Too late
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
Oh yeah!
Standin' by the trapdoor aware of me and you
Are the actor and the clown their waiting for their cue
And there's a lady over there she's acting pretty cool
But when it comes to playing life she always plays the fool
But it's too late, too late, it's too late
Too late to love
Too late, it's too late, too late
Too late
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
It is all too late
Ooh whoa
It's too late
Ooh whoa ooh
Yes it is all too late
Yeah!
It's too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late
(whoah yeah)
Too late
(Oh yeah)
Too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late
(Too late)
Too late
(Too late)
Too late
(Too late for love)
Die Hard the Hunter

Shotgun
Let's welcome home the soldier boy from
(Far away, far away)
No angel of mercy just a need to destroy
(Fire away, fire away)
Let's toast the hero with blood in his eyes
The scars on his mind took so many lives
Die hard the hunter
Welcome home soldier boy
Put down your pistol, yeah, put down your toy
Yeah, they can take your gun away from you
But never take away your attitude
They can't do that
Oh no no
They can't do that
You got no enemy, no front line
The only battle's in the back of your mind
You don't know how to change from bad to good
You brought the war to your neighborhood
You can't do that
Oh no no
You can't do that
Oh
(Die hard)
Your caught in a trap
(Hunter)
There's no lookin' back
(Die hard)
He's lost in the crowd
(Hunter)
Die hard and proud
(Die hard the hunter)
(Die hard the hunter)
You gotta watch out
(Die hard the hunter)
(Die hard the hunter)
Back in the city, he's a man on the loose
He is the shadow that's-a following you
He takes no prisoners when he's hunting for game
He's got a bullet and it carries your name
(You can't do that)
You can't do that
(You can't do that)
Oh no no no
(Die hard)
Your caught in a trap
(Hunter)
There's no lookin' back
(Die hard)
He's lost in the crowd
(Hunter)
Die hard and proud
(Die hard)
Your caught in a trap
(Hunter)
There's no lookin' back
(Die hard)
He's lost in the crowd
(Hunter)
Die hard and proud
(Die hard the hunter)
(Die hard the hunter)
You gotta watch out
(Die hard the hunter)
(Die hard the hunter)
He's gotta gun in his eyes
(Die hard the hunter)
He's always huntin' for game
(Die hard the hunter)
He's gonna kill you tonight
(You can't do that)
You can't do that
(You can't do that)
No, no, no
Oh!
Foolin'

Lady luck never smiles
So lend your love to me awhile
Do with me what you will
Break the spell take your fill
On and on we rode the storm
The flame has died and the fire has gone
Oh, this empty bed is a night alone
I realised that long ago
Is anybody out there?
Anybody there?
Does anybody wonder?
Ooh oh
Anybody care?
Oh, I just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cos baby I'm not
F-F-F-Foolin'
Ah F-F-Foolin'
F-F-F-Foolin'
Ah F-F-Foolin'
Won't you stay with me awhile
Oh
Close your eyes don't run and hide
Easy love is no easy ride
Just wakin' up from what we had
Could stop good love from going bad
Is anybody out there?
Anybody there?
Does anybody wonder?
Ooh oh
Anybody care?
Oh, I just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cos baby I'm not
F-F-F-Foolin'
Ah F-F-Foolin'
F-F-F-Foolin'
Ah F-F-Foolin'
Oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh, I just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cos baby I'm not
F-F-F-Foolin'
Ah F-F-Foolin'
Not F-F-F-Foolin'
Oh no, I'm not foolin' myself
(No I'm not foolin' myself)
No no no
(No I'm not foolin' myself)
Oh no no
(No I'm not foolin' myself)
I'm not foolin'
(No I'm not foolin' myself)

Comin' Under Fire

Your kind of woman gotta heart of stone
But watch it break when I get you alone
Take a chance, come lay down with me
Oh, I wanna make it
Slow and steady never lost the race
Don't stop runnin', I'm a fool for the chase
Play the game, surrender to me
Baby, I don't wanna fake it
Is it any wonder, you got me comin' under fire?
Comin' like thunder, you know you make me walk the wire
It's so easy to put on a show
Your body says yes but you won't let it go
But my passion won't let it slip away
Oh am I goin' crazy?
Is it any wonder, you got me comin' under fire?
Comin' like thunder, you know you make me walk the wire
Under fire
You got me comin'
(Under fire)
((Under fire))
You got me comin'
(Under fire)
((Under fire))
Ooh yeah
I'm comin'
(Under fire)
But your body says yes but baby please let it go
Let it go
Ooh yeah
Whoah yeah
You got me, I'm cornered, my back to the wall
No bed of roses, ain't no bed at all
I'm walkin' the wire, I stumble and fall
I got the message but I ain't gonna crawl
Is it any wonder, you got me comin' under fire?
Comin' like thunder, you know you make me walk the wire
Is it any wonder
(Is it any wonder)
You got me comin' under fire?
(You got me comin' under fire?)
Comin' like thunder
(Comin' like thunder)
You know you make me walk the wire
(You know you make me walk the wire)

And all I need is my video

Billy's Got a Gun

Billy's got a gun
He's on the run
Confusion in his mind
The blind leads the blind
Yeah, Billy's got a gun
He's gonna shoot ya down
He's got evil in his eyes
Got a reason to despise
There's danger in the air
(Can you feel it in the air?)
There's danger in the air
(Danger)
Such a strange emotion
(Can you feel it in the air?)
Oh yeah
Oh he was locked inside a room without a door
His innocence he suffered for
In a world of black and white
They were wrong and he was right
He's just looking for a clue
It's a nightmare come true
He's going underground to track that danger down
Oh Billy
And why you got that gun?
(Can you feel it in the air?)
There's danger in the air
(Danger)
Such a strange emotion
(Can you feel it in the air?)
Oh yeah
Oh Billy
Never give him an even break
Gettin' caught is the chance you take
It could be your last mistake
You could be so helpless
As a bird with a broken wing
Like a sheep in a lion's den
Gonna fall but you won't know when
He's gonna get ya
You hear footsteps in the night
See shadows on the wall
And the ghastly sound of silence
As the mist begins to fall
Then a scream rang out like thunder
But the lightning was too late
As the rain came down on the crimson ground
Was the hand of fate
And a crowd of people gathered round
But Billy couldn't wait
(Can you feel it in the air?)
There's danger in the air
(Danger)
Such a strange emotion
(Can you feel it in the air?)
Oh yeah
Yeah Billy you better run
Oh you better run
Never give him an even break
(Ya better run)
Gettin' caught is the chance you take
(Ya better run)
Yeah Billy has got a gun
As a bird with a broken wing
(Oh Billy)
Like a sheep in the lion's den
(Oh Billy)
Gonna fall but you don't know when
Yeah the heat is on
He's gonna get ya
Whoah yeah
Bang bang
