Lyrics

1. SUPERSTITIOUS

Seen you in the underground, a loser to your game.
The people that you hung around have led you all astray.
So don't be superstitious, this is your lucky day.
There's a brand new situation, you're the one that's here to stay.
Seems you didn't have the grind to get you through the line.
But now you're stuck in overdrive and all you need is time.
Repeat Chorus.
When all you want is drugs and money, nothing can come quick enough.
Everything in this world is funny. You've got to bear it all, hold on and be tough.
Seen you in the underground, a loser to your game.
But now I think you'll stick around and everyone will know your name.


2. BLACK RAIN

Red sun come, better run and hide. Ain't no fun when it gets inside your head.
Red sun come, better get inside. Wrong impression then one night you're dead. I said.
Black rain (black rain). Black rain (black rain).
A frozen heart and a man insane could come unglued in the wet of the black rain.
Another ride on the honor train could change the world into death in the black rain.
Pretty little singing boy just became a brand new toy, oh my.
Pretty little singing boy, one you may have just destroyed your life. No lie.
Black rain (black rain). Black rain (black rain).


3. RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE

We've got our troubles and we know it, we've got a threat in our lives.
Sometimes so strong we can't control it, oh how we ever survived.
We need some things to bring us up and then some things to bring us down.
That's the one thing about love, it'll always be around.
I'll be right by your side when the gray turns to blue.
I'll be right by your side for the rest of my life.
Some days the whole thing seems much clearer, some days are better than some.
As we grow farther we grow nearer. Oh baby, I'll be the one.
The one to take you by the hand, and take you where you want to go.
Who'll try to make you understand, and show you things you've gotta know.
Repeat Chorus.
I just want you to know now, I'll never let you go now.
I needed you to see just what you mean to me.
I just want you to feel what's waiting here is real,
I'll be right by your side.


4. THESE DAZE

So very long, the years. Hiding behind the fears,
Of doing our own things so fast, we took the days, we made them last.
And I know that we let it go way out of line, but the main thing is hey, we didn't lose our minds.
So good (so good). So fine (so fine). I will never let it leave my mind.
I'll remember these days for the rest of my life.
Long kisses in the halls. Wasted behind the stalls.
Our chicks were hot, our cars were fast. We took the days, we made them last.
Repeat Chorus.
We take the weekends and throw them away.
We're cheek to cheek when there's nowhere to stay.
The keg is cold and we're ready to play, oh these days.


5. MASTER OF PAIN

My mamma was a gypsy, my daddy was a whore.
Baby bottle full of whiskey and now I've got the store that puts you on the floor.
All your billion dollar babies, gonna bleed ya till there dry.
Then I'm gonna drive you crazy just to see you cry. You know the reason why…
'Cause I'm a cold-hearted master of pain. I'm a cold-hearted master of pain.
I'm a cold-hearted master of pain, but something makes you want me.
Never had a steady lover, no one's ever broke my heart.
Go from one thing to another, see me tearing it apart, yeah tearing it apart.
I may already be around you, you'll never know it's me.
But baby when I've found you, get set for misery, get set for misery.


6. INNOCENCE

Doll house in the corner where you used to sit and play.
Cutting paper playmates having tea at noon each day.
All the things you cherished now have faded all away,
And you're a big girl now, you say.
All familiar faces that you used to watch and grow,
Now have turned to faces that you really do not know.
Now some special boy has come along and brought you joy,
He wants to make love to you.
There goes your innocence, who's to say what's right or wrong?
But it's your innocence, and when you give it up, it's gone,
And in your heart, in your mind, if you feel it's the time,
Your innocence is gone.
All those little shadows flickering on your bedroom wall,
Once were scary monsters, now they're all so very small.
Dangling on your mizpah as you hurry down the hall,
You want to show all to all.
Repeat Chorus.
Follow intuition, no you ain't done nothing bad,
Take a look around you at your mother and your dad.
You're not alone, it happens all the time, you should be glad,
That you're a big girl now, so sad.


7. ONE STEP CLOSER TO YOU

Well baby take a look at you now, it seems that you've been shattered somehow,
I see you always walking around with a long face singing the blues.
But if I ever see you again, I feel it true your heart I'll defend,
'Cause honey you can always depend your whole life I'll be true.
Every little move I make, getting you away from that loser.
Every little move made is one step closer to you.
You never even known where he's been, or see the pile of trouble you're in,
'Cause from the outside looking on in it's a no win, win or lose.
'Cause nothing's ever as real as it seems, so don't you fall apart at the seams.
If nothing else you'll see what I mean, it's a choice that you can choose.
Repeat Chorus.
Don't you know the moods you fake won't get you away from that loser,
Every little move made is one step closer to you.


8. BRING IT ON HOME

Tear my heart out if I could, I really wish I understood,
Just exactly made you go, I feel that I deserve to know.
Now I'm out of control, of my head, of my soul. I don't know where to go.
Baby bring it on home, bring it on home.
You've got a place of your own, baby bring it on home.
Bring it on home, baby bring it on home.
You've got a place of your own, baby bring it on home.
I wear my heart out on my sleeve, there ain't no one I can deceive.
Everything around reminds me of you're heading out of town and I'm in love.
With my head in my hand, do the best that I can. I'm a lonely, lonely man.


9. TAKIN' A RIDE

Rolling on down out of my mind. Everything's fine, takin' a ride.
Watching the world pass me by. So high, we're so high.


10. THE LOVE TRAIN

Come along, come along, there's a party tonight.
Have a laugh, sing a song, ain't no critic in sight.
Any time of the day, yeah it's always alright.
You can bring anyone, it's an open invite.
If the world's got you down and you're dealing with pain,
And the pressures of like take it's toll on your brain.
Come on into the light, come on out of the rain,
If you're looking for something where nothing's the same.
Yeah the tickets are free but you still have to pay,
Admission price is love on the love train.
We'll ride around the world (get on the love train).
Get every boy, get every boy (get on the love train).
We'll take a trip around the world (get on the love train).
We're riding on the love train.
There's a smile on the face of everyone that you see,
There's a cocktail car if you don't want iced tea.
There's no locks on the door so you don't need no key.
And you don't need no money because everything's free.
As we roll down the tracks with the sun on our face.
We ain't moving to fast 'cause we ain't in no race.
Yeah, the groove's gonna last, it'll show on your face.
Feel the love in the air, it's all over the place.
Come get piece of mind, it's a wonderful thing.
Come on and take a ride on the love train.


11. MARY ANNE LOST HER BABY

Sitting in a room, waiting there they call your name
Into another room, where they tell you there's no pain,
Well you might not feel it now, you're just simplifying things,
Got out of hand somehow, until the matter rings, it rings.
It's gone, it's gone.
Mary Anne lost her baby and now it drives her crazy.
Since Mary Anne lost her baby, her whole world has gone crazy.
Walking through the store, see the aisle, the nursery care
Could trigger off the horror of a life that once was there.
You don't know what it means. Responsibilities, remove them with machines.
Until once again your free, you're free.
It's gone, it's gone
Repeat Chorus.
Questions in her head, as the forties pass her by,
And there's still no one in bed, just a big, fat, lonely why.
Spending life alone when you could have had the joys that make you carry on.
Now the furnished party toy in life is gone, yeah it's gone.


12. ROCK 'N' WORLD

For those who crave a brand new art, living free, so wild at heart.
Who aren't afraid to fall apart, who've had it all right from the start.
For all those following their dreams, taking far beyond extremes.
It's here or there, no in-betweens, who feel they know just what life means.
You can sing, you can dance, do your thing, in a rock 'n' world.
Be a king, make it last, anything in a rock 'n' world.
Hurry don't get left behind, find yourself and free your mind.
Let your heart and soul unwind, make it fit like 69.
Feel the music blast you now, if you feel it scream and shout.
This is what it's all about, the new things in the old things out.
Repeat Chorus.
Listen strong to our advice, the girls are sweet the weather's nice.
What's in your dreams indeed suffice, it's so damn cool I've been there twice!


13. FINGERTIPS

Another town, another stage, another book, I turn the page.
In a world of restlessness and rage,
I hope reality don't get the best of me.
When there's love at your fingertips,
And the whole world wants to kiss your lips.
When there's love, when there's love at your fingertips,
The magic goes away.
Another heart that had to break, another hook caught in the lake.
Is it all for something or someone's sake?
Why does reality have such a hold on me?
