1. BALL BABY

I wanna tell you a story
About a number on the wall
I wanna tell you a story
About a girl who's got it all
Strike one - a swing and a miss
I didn't stand a chance
Strike two - let's boog-a-loo
But she didn't do the dance
Strike three you're out - there ain't no doubt
Give it up and go to bed
Grab the phone, givin' kay a bone
Their evicted friend
You wanna send and get

Ball baby ball
For a good time you should call
Your number on the wall
For ball baby ball
Ball baby ball

I picked up the phone she said i'm all alone
And ooh she sounds so sweet
She said ready or not i'm gonna get ya hot
At the hotel magnifique
Well she opened the door
Threw me on the floor
I was lost in ecstacy
I grabbed her stuff
There was more than enough
She turned out to be
She's got plans for me

Ball baby ball
For a good time you should call
Your number on the wall
For ball baby ball
Ball baby ball

Oh, she's got it all

[solo]

What you see ain't what you get
My hands are shakin'
I'm a nervous wreck
I pried - beneath those curls
But boys will be boys - and boys will be girls

Ball baby ball
For a good time you should call
The number on the wall
For ball baby ball
Ball baby ball
For a good time you should call
The number on the wall
For ball baby ball
Ball baby ball
(do do do)
(do do do)
(do do do)
(do do do)
Give me a call (do do do)
Ball baby - yeah (do do do)
Give me a call (do do do)
Ball baby - for a good time (do do do)
She got it all (do do do)
Ball baby ball (do do do)
Ball baby ball
Ball baby ball
Ball baby ball
Ball baby ball

911
Call and i will come

I get a message that you're all alone and going down
I know what you need someone to go around
Someone to hold on to
Until you feed the hunger that leaves you
Shaking underneath the sheets
All ya gotta do is call

Call and i will come

So there you are in your empty bed
But you must take time for a little relief
You try to shut down the voice in your head
The one that's telling you to turn up the heat
Then slowly, so slowly
You try to satisfy, why don't you
Let me help you make it to the other side
Girl why don't you pick the phone

Until you feed the hunger that leaves you
Shaking underneath the sheets
Baby i can hear you breathing

3. FIREBALLS

I've been up
I've been down
I've double crossed ripped off and fooled around
I might bruise
I might bleed
But i fight to the finish to get what i need
If i'm love struck baby
Get out of my way
Take what i want - i don't play to play
Don't need no bullet proof vest to save my life
Don't need a blackjack, gun or a knife
I've got

Fireballs - they're big and they're blue
Fireballs - they're burning for you
Fireballs - hear the thunder and noise
Fireballs - search and destroy

It's a bird
It's a plane
It's an all night-rock-n-roll ball of flame
Shake your shakr
Shout your shout
If it's in ya baby
It's got to come out
Vocano eruption
It's hot and it's mean
Like an angry beat that's starting to steam
Get out of my way, i'll mow you down
The dirty boys are comin' to town
We got

Fireballs - they're big and they're blue
Fireballs - they're burning for you
Fireballs - hear the thunder and noise
Fireballs - search and destroy

There's nothing you can do
We're coming after you

Fireballs - they're big and they're blue
Fireballs - they're burning for you
Fireballs - hear the thunder and noise
Fireballs - it's my bundle of joy
Fireballs - they're big and they're blue
Fireballs - they're burning for you
Fireballs - hear the thunder and noise
Fireballs - search and destroy
Fireballs (yeah)
Fireballs
Fireballs (yeah yeah)
Fireballs hey

There ain't nothing you can do
We're coming after you

4. BABY TIME BOMB

Ooh, she was a ticking time bomb
Time bomb ready to blow
All the girls were charmed for so long
To find out what they didn't know

I took them to the kasbah
I took them to my room
I gave her a lick that made her tick
She went crash bang boom

Baby time bomb
Shake shakin' the ground
Baby time bomb
I'm going down

I can't wait
To feel her detonate
Baby time bomb
Tick tickin' away

She was the goddess venus
Ooh, my baby come to life
I had the power to dream it
I said, baby, let it be tonight

Countdown to explosion
Take me to your wonderland
Took a walk she was a fireball
She said a wham bam slam
Bang bang

Baby time bomb
Shake, shakin' the ground
Baby time bomb
I'm going down

Leave me alone
In my blasting zone
With my baby time bomb
Tick tickin' away


5. BOOK TO HYPNOTIZE

I wrote a letter
Paid for a book
Try to make love better
You don't need good looks
My mailman brought it
I felt something strange
I knew i caught it
You could feel the heat right on the page

It's a book
It's a potion
And before i knew i saw that look in her eyes
That's why i'm glad glad glad glad
It was the book to hypnotize
I said i was glad glad glad glad

Last night i tried there was a tune i planned
She couldn't fight it
Putty in my hand
Just look into my eyes now baby

And before i knew i saw that look in her eyes
That's why i'm glad glad glad glad
It was the book to hypnotize
I said i was glad glad glad glad
It was a book to hypnotize

Yeah
When i want some more
I just knock on her door
Then i see the answer in her eyes

It's a book
It's a potion
And before i knew i saw that look in her eyes
That's why i'm glad glad glad glad
It was the book to hypnotize
I said i was glad glad glad glad
It was a book to hypnotize

Well glad glad glad
Yeah glad glad glad
You know i'm glad glad glad
I said i'm glad glad glad glad
It was a book to hypnotize


6. PUT MY MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS

Hey hey
Oh i'm gonna play the horses
Play the lottery
Spin the wheel of fortune
Baby won't ya spin with me

Dealer knows you're dealin' blows
And babe we're gonna have some fun
Working for love that's your biz

Red hot lips of an angel
Sending chills down my spine
Hits ya right in the kisser
Takes my breath away
Seeing stars sends me to mars

7. SHE LOVES ME NOT

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
It's a lot to give for what i got
She loves me, she loves me not

I woke up one morning, it was valentine's day
Walked to her house the usual way
I knocked on her door, there all alone
A voice in the distance shouted "nobody's home"
A dozen red roses behind my back
I peeked through the keyhole and the flowers turned black
And what to my wondering eyes did appear?
My valentine with the man of the year

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
It's a lot to give for what i got
She loves me, she loves me not

I was her daddy and she was my child
My little angel was driving me wild
I gave her her lessons, i taught her the rules
I was a teacher and she was at school
A straight a student, ooh she learned quick
She sat at the black board and pointed her stick
I created a monster in black spike heels
She kicked in the teeth and i learned how to squeal

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
It's a lot to give for what i got
She loves me, she loves me not

My only solution was an ad in the press
Wanted: a female for a man in a mess
I'll give you my honor and i'll guarantee
Won't do to you what she did to me

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
It's a lot to give for what i got
She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
It's a lot to give for what i got
She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not


8. FIREBOY

Fireboy
I come a running to your rescue
Fireboy
You hear my bell ringing loud and true
The band's on fire, but i can be there just in time
I get your holy water, fire engine number nine

Fireboy, fireboy
Fireboy, fireboy

When you hear the whistle blowing, fireboy
You know baby where i'm going,
I climb up the ladder, bustin' through your window pain
I can stop the fire before it starts to flame

Fireboy, fireboy
Fireboy, fireboy

Take my hooking ladder right up to the top
You got me started, now i can't stop
You're deep in danger, that's what it's all about
I'm gonna put your fire out

The alarm is ringin', ringin' up the wall
Well i'm your silver servant, answer every call
Baby know my number, baby know my name
If you got a fire, if you got a flame

I come a running to your rescue
Fireboy
You hear my bell ringing loud and true
The band's on fire, but i can be there just in time
I get your holy water, fire engine number nine

Fireboy, fireboy
Fireboy, fireboy
Fireboy, fireboy
Fireboy, fireboy


9. I'M BOMBED

I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, yeah yeah!)
I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo!)

I'm bombed, there's a hole in the ground
Caught me just when my defenses were down
I'm bombed, there's a hole in the sky
Covered in ashes and smoke's in my eyes

Ooh, you come, i'm bluffed, your heart is stuffed
With much too much for me
Much too much for me

I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo!)

I saw a white flash, a thundering crash
I'm bombed, napalm!
She hit where it hurts, my dick's in the dirt
I'm bombed, napalm!

How long can you just watch me bleed? (bleed)
I don't want to be your casualty (that's too much for me)

I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, yeah yeah!)
I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, ay yeah yeah yeah!)

I'm bombed, there's a hole in the ground
Caught me just when my defenses were down
I'm bombed, and all that remains: a shell of a man
That's just killing in plain

Ooh, you come, i'm bluffed, your heart is stuffed
With much too much for me
Too much for me

How long can you just watch me bleed? (bleed)
I don't want to be your casualty (that's too much for me)

I'm bombed, napalm!
I'm bombed, napalm!
I'm bombed, napalm!

I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, yeah yeah!)
I'm bombed, napalm! (hoo hoo hoo hoo, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
I'm bombed, napalm!
I'm bombed, napalm!
Yeah, i'm bombed, napalm!
Yeah, i'm bombed, napalm!
Yeah, i'm bombed, napalm!


10. IF YOU RUN AROUND

If you run around, baby, don't run back to me
If you run around, baby, run, i'll set you free
It don't make a difference if it's he or she
If you run around, don't run back to me

If you fool around, baby, keep me in the dark
If you fool around, baby, you know you'll break my heart
You'll break a little promise, you'll break it right in two
If you fool around, i won't fool with you

I could be your lover, baby, be your only man
Don't tell no lies, don't tell no stories, i can't understand

If you play around, baby, you're cheatin' at the game
If you play around, just forget my name
There's losers and there's winners, but nobody plays for free
If you play around, don't play your games with me

Well i had a little dream, it was cold as ice
You came out of the rain, saw another man,
Saw another man in your eyes, eyes, eyes

If you run around, baby, don't run back to me
If you run around, baby, run, i'll set you free
I could be your true love, if true is what you'll be
(if you) don't run back to (if you)
Don't run back to (if you run around)
Don't run back
Don't run back to me
