1. THE KID IS HOT TONITE

We just heard of a brand new wave
And we hope it’s here to stay
We’ll have to wait and see
If it’s half of what they say

We heard he opened up a brand new door
Well you know that’s what I’m lookin’ for
We’ll have to wait and see if it makes you shout for more

How do you like him so far?
How do you like his show?
How do you like the way he rocks and the way he rolls?

How do you like his image?
How do you like his style?
How do you like the way he looks and the way he smiles?

[Chorus:]
The Kid is hot tonight
Whoa so hot tonight
But where will he be tomorrow?
The kid, is hot tonight
Whoa so hot tonight
But where will he be tomorrow?

And we just heard of a brand new fad
And they say it’s gonna drive you mad
We’ll have to wait and see if it’s the best you ever had
And we just heard of a brand new wave
We heard it’s headin’ for an early grave
We’ll have to wait and see if there’s anything we can say

How do you like him so far?
How do you like his show?
How do you like the way he rocks and the way he rolls?

How do you like his image?
How do you like his style?
How do you like the way he looks and the way he smiles?

[Chorus]

The kid is hot tonight
Whoa so hot tonight
But where will he be tomorrow
The kid is hot tonight
Whoa so hot tonight
But where will he be, where will he be?
The kid is hot tonight
Whoa so hot tonight
But where will he be tomorrow?
The kid is hot tonight, whoa


2. TURN ME LOOSE

I was born to run,
I was born to dream,
The craziest boy you ever seen,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all,

And I was here to please,
I'm even on my knees,
Makin' love to whoever I please,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all,

And then you came around,
Tried to tie me down,
I was such a clown,
You had to have it your way,
Or no way at all,

But I've had all I can take,
I can't take it no more,
I'm gonna pack my bags and fly,
My way,
Or no way at all,

So why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all,

Why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
I wanna fly,

I'm here to please,
I'm even on my knees,
Makin' love to whoever I please,
I gotta do it my way,
I gotta do it my way,

And when you came around,
You tried to tie me down,
I was such a clown,
You had to have it your way,
Well, I'm sayin', "No way,"

So why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all,

Why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
I wanna fly,
Ooh yeah,

So why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
Or no way at all,

Why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
I gotta do it my way,

Why don't you turn me loose?
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
I gotta do it my way,
I wanna fly,

Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose,
Turn me loose.


3. ALWAYS ON MY MIND

I knew her since high school, we were seventeen
I was old enough to know she was old enough to dream
I try to remember, bring back memories
And you know that she is always on my mind

She knew what I needed, never let me down
She was always the last to leave and the first to come Around
I try to remember, bring back memories
And you know that she is always on my mind

Always on my mind
She's driving me crazy
Always on my mind
And you know that she is always on my mind

Every night in my dreams I still see her face
But she gave it up for me, she only gave me a taste
Every time I see her it comes back to me
And you know that she is always on my mind

Always on my mind
She's driving me crazy
Always on my mind
And you know, yes you know, yes you know

Oh yeah,

Always on my mind
She's driving me crazy
Always on my mind
And you know that she is always on my mind

Always on my mind
She's driving me crazy
Always on my mind
And you know, yes you know, yes you know

Always on my mind
Always on my mind

5. LITTLE GIRL

How can I make you love me
How can I make you mine
How can I make you at all
When you don't know what goes on inside your mind
What goes on inside
Don't wanna make you lonely
You need it every day
I wanna make you the only
But you don't know what goes on inside

[Chorus:]
You're too little, little girl
You're too little, little girl
You're too little, little girl, to fall in love

How can I make you feel it
And make you lose control
How can I make you need it
When you don't know what goes on inside your mind
What goes on inside
How can I prove it to you, baby
You make me wait all day
I'm gonna save it til tomorrow
Cause you don't know what goes on inside

[Chorus] (x2)

How can I make you trust me
And make you lose control
How can I make you at all
When you don't know what goes on inside your mind
What goes on inside
How can I prove it to you, baby
Just wait and see
I'n gonna make you prove it
That you don't know what goes on inside

[Chorus] (x2)

To fall in love...


6. PRISSY PRISSY

I see you watchin'
You are sure delight
Me and twenty others, we've been watching you all night
And even though I saw you first, I'm still the last in line
I can see from here, you're not the lovin' kind

The way you treat the boys is a disgrace
It's so sad to see a pretty face

[Chorus:]
Prissy, prissy, prissy, prissy, prissy
Oh, so very prissy, prissy
Prissy, prissy, prissy, prissy, prissy

I'm trying to think of something good to say
To make you turn your head
To make you look this way
You're afraid to see me
You've had to much abuse
Me and all the guys think you're running around being loose

The way you treat the boys is a disgrace
It's so sad to see a pretty face

[Chorus]

I see ya run, I see you hide, I see you cry x3

[Chorus]


7. TEENAGE OVERDOSE

Lookin' for a teenage, lookin' for a teenage overdose
Lookin' for a good time, ready for a bad time
Comin' so close

Lookin' for a teenage, lookin' for a teenage comatose
If your lookin' for some rock'n'roll, lookin' for some rock'n'roll
I'll give you a dose

One foot in hell

One foot in hell... and you know the others got to be
Walking with the devil an settin' him free

One foot in hell... and you know the others gonna to show
It's always you that's the last to know

One foot in hell

I got one foot over the line and your close behind
I got one foot over the line and your close behind

Your lookin' for a cover, don't wanna tell your mother
I know your out there you’re an underground-lover

One foot in hell... and you know, the others gonna to go
For you and me at the end of the show

One foot in hell (Hey!!)

I got one foot over the line and your close behind
I got one foot over the line and your close behind (Oh)

Lookin' for a teenage, lookin' for a teenage overdose
Lookin' for a good time, ready for a bad time; comin' so Close

If your lookin' for some rock'n'roll, lookin' for some Rock'n'roll
I'll give you a dose

One foot in hell
One foot in hell (ah-ell)
One foot in hell


8. D.O.A

I wrote a letter to a private eye,
A missing person or a runaway,
You'll never find her in the U.S.A
All they got down here is liberty,
Talked to her brother down in Frisco Bay,
He ain't seen nuthin' there but cilicone,
I called her mommy up the ozone way,
She wouldn't put her on the telephone,

[Chorus:]
Why won't she see me,
She's not looking well,
Some girls just like to push thier luck..
Until they wind up.. DOA, DOA, DOA

I paid a visit to a Dr.J,
He thought it might have been her cromosome,
So he put blue jeans in her DNA,
I guess that's why she's never coming home,
Spend all my money on her luxuries,
I guess i'll need a bigger salary,
Her lonely life is such a mystery,
I keep her picture in my gallery, ya!

[Chorus]

Talked to her brother down in Frisco Bay,
He ain't seen nuthin' there but cilicone,
I called her mommy up on ozone way,
She wouldn't put her on the telephone,

[Chorus]


9. I DON'T MATTER

If you can read between the lines
Then you can tell me what my next move will be
It's just a matter of time before
The whole wide world Will see

And when you tell me that I'm wrong
In the morning, I'll be gone
And if you've heard it all before
Then it just don't matter no more

Why don't you tell me what you're after?
Why don't you say what's on your mind?
How will you feel the morning after,
When all there is is what I've left behind?

And when you tell me that I'm wrong
In the morning, I'll be gone
And if you've heard it all before
Then it just don't matter no more

It don't matter no more
It don't matter, matter to me
It don't matter no more
Ooo-ooh-hoo

And when you tell me that I'm wrong
In the morning, I'll be gone
And if you've heard it all before
Well, it just don't matter no more

Why don't you tell me what you're after?
Why don't you say what's on your mind?
How will you feel the morning after,
When all there is is what I've left behind?

'Cause when you tell me that I'm wrong
In the morning, I'll be gone
And if you've heard it all before
Well, it just don't matter no more

It don't matter no more
It don't matter
It don't matter
It don't matter no more
Ooo-ooh-hoo
It don't matter no more
It don't matter, matter to me
It don't matter no more
It don't matter
It don't matter
It don't matter no more
Look around, baby
It don't matter no more
Ooo-ooh-hoo, hey

Read between the lines
Read what's on my mind

Don't matter, don't matter, don't matter to me
It don't matter, it don't matter to me, to me
Ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo

Read between the lines
A-doo-ba-da-wa-doo-way
Doo-bah, doo-bah, day
Hey, hey, hey
Don't matter to me, don't matter to me
Don't matter to me what they say
What they say
Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
