1. CHAIN GANG

Anyway you slice it
I've got to get out of this place
No way out now, bash a steel face

When I kick down the doors - all night long
You're takin' part just in a play
Break it up in my own way

[Chorus:]
Like a chain gang in a prison
You're with 'em... for too long
In a chain gang
You're with 'em... for too long

No way out, just a bloody trap I see
Hundred tons of dynamite rocket me!

When I blast down the walls - all night long
You're takin' part just in a play
Break it up in my own way

[Chorus]

A chain gang

[Chorus]

Far too long
Too long
You're in a chain gang - for too long


2. MONEY DOESN'T COUNT

[Screaming:]
Money... doesn't count tonight!

Her stiletto heels... got me mesmorized
My blood begins to rise, I'm hypnotized, yeah
Leaned the birds and the bees
Right out on the streets
Your looks gave me a tease
Found myself needing you, needing you to be pleased

[Chorus 1:]
Going out on the town and we'll be out in the streets
Get ourselves unwound
Heading out for the town, the city never sleeps
Turn it upside down, down

[Chorus 2:]
Money doesn't count tonight
Lookin' for fun
Ain't gonna sleep tonight
Till the day is done, the day is done

Because I come from a gutter
Lived one day to another
Oh, how can I break the ice
Surrounding you, I'm longin' for paradise

[Chorus 1 and 2]

Oh, come on hear them
Bad screams in your head
They show me the paradise

[Chorus 1]

Money doesn't count tonight
Lookin' for fun
Ain't gonna sleep tonight
Till the day is done

Money doesn't count tonight
Lookin' for fun
Money, ain't gonna sleep tonight
Till the day is done, done, done...


3. DANGER COMEBACK

Mikrochip faces controlling your fate
Coldness... all around
Eyeballs are burning from endless TV
Robots... spinning us down

[Chorus 1:]
Wake up... just to find that you've got a mechanical arm
Wasn't there yesterday!
Reach out... to hold your chemistry
Made baby in gas

[Chorus 2:]
Danger comeback
Danger comeback
Power on/off
Rely on... machinery
Danger comeback
Danger comeback
System melt down... for all eternity

Colourful cables create atmosphere
Hardware... scenery
Satellite teachers are sent far from here
Shining... down on earth on the screens

[Chorus 1 and 2]

For all eternity

[Chorus 2]

Danger comeback
Danger comeback
System melt down for all eternity


4. ICECOLD

Cold as steel
A look... from her eyes
So innocent... she seems to be
But she's devil in disguise, yeah

[Chorus 1:]
You don't want - to recognize
That you're walkin' on a... razor's edge

[Chorus 2:]
She takes all she wants
Icecold

[Chorus 2]

Lay your life in her hands
She's so neat, yeah!
And soon you're a slave
It won't take long, boy
She'll watch you bleed

[Chorus 1 and 2]
[Chorus 2]

Oh yeah

[Chorus 1 and 2]
[Chorus 2 (3)]


5. MESSING AROUND WITH FIRE

Riding a rocket, flashfire burns
Can't understand it, will they never learn?
Annihilation, dead or alive
So trigger-happy, that's our last drive

[Chorus 1:]
Nevermore - napalm machines again
Evermore - lifeless 'till the end

[Chorus 2:]
Messing around (around) with fire (around)
You will have to learn
If you're messing around (around) with fire (around)
You gotta get yourself burned

Enemy curses, aggressions - let go
Can't understand it, fight of friend or foe?
By blind emotion you can't return
Head or collision 'cos we never learn

Nevermore - napalm machines again
Evermore - lifeless - until the end

[Chorus 2]

If you're messing around

[Chorus 1 and 2]
[Chorus 2]

Messing around (around) with fire (around)
Annihilation, dead or alive
If you're messing around (around) with fire (around)
So trigger-happy, that's our last drive

Messing around (around) with fire (around)
Enemy curses
If you're messing around (around) with fire (around)
Agressions

Messing around (around) with fire (around)
Messing around with the fire, yeah
If you're messing around (around) with fire (around)

Messing around (around) with fire (around)
Messing around (around) with fire (around)
Messing around (around) with fire (around)


6. ROCKIN' THE CITY

You're a beast undercover, but treated like a fool
Don't give a damn for the others
Cause you've got your own rules

[Chorus 1:]
A bit of rock - rock
Makes you come out of your shell
A bit of rock - rock
Uuh, give 'em hell!

[Chorus 2:]
Rockin' the city
Rock so hot
Rockin' the city

You're chokin' back the anger
Waitin' for your time to come
And when the daylight is fading
Just like a starting gun

[Chorus 1 and 2]

Oh yeah

[Chorus 1 and 2]

Rockin' the city
It's the day of the city
Rockin' the city

Yeah

A bit of... rock


7. STRIKE BACK

Living in frustration, on every occasion
You are treated like a fool
They make you look silly... day by day
Try to make them see who you want to be
But they can't just understand
And you realize... that there's no way, no way

[Chorus 1:]
But on the Saturday night the chains of oppression fall down
Riding the highway, know it is your way
Rock them all to the ground
Coming alive... when the nighttime is calling
Hit the streets, thunder rolling

[Chorus 2:]
Strike back
Then you strike back, breaking the spell
Strike back
Uuh, you strike back, blasting the cell

Back against the wall, you know you won't fall
On your knees, no, not at all
When you're in the pack you're... not to tame
You shall be a tool... of the ones that rule
An easy guided, aimless guy
They all try to bent you... but in vain, yeah

[Chorus 1 and 2]

[Chorus 1 and 2]

Strike back
Then you strike back
Strike back
Then you strike back, breaking the spell


8. NIGHT AFTER NIGHT

In the dead of the night when there's nothing inside
Can't see for miles around
Then it's time to move, nothing to lose
Take this town!

Thunder in disgiuse
Danger... in the air
Rock the night away... tonight

When the lights go down you can hear the sound
So scream out in the air
Gotta fight the fight, gotta do it right
Come show me... you are there

[Chorus 1:]
Thunder in disgiuse
And danger... in the air
Rock the night away... tonight, tonight

[Chorus 2:]
Night after night, day after day
Gotta let go, turn it up again
Night after night, day after day
On and on

Hey hey hey!

We can burn the ice, no more compromise
A flame you can't blow out
Such a roarin' force, a stampin' horse
Get it now!

Thunder in disgiuse
Danger... in the air
C'mon, rock the night away... tonight, tonight

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 2 (2)]

On and on
Oh yeah
Hey hey hey!

That's the thunder in disgiuse
And danger, there's danger... in the air


9. WAITING FOR A STAR

Silently... desperation destroying... my mind
Can't get it all... anymore, anymore
Alienation... is my only way, yeah
So cruel, so cruel

Reality, or should I believe in something other?
And I'm... catchin' a light... in the corner of my deceivin' eye
Soarin' away from the dark
It's just because... I can't give up

[Chorus:]
Waiting for a star
Hoping for another light
Waiting for a star
Takes me years... all away

Out in the dark
Out there so far see Venus appearin'
Makes me dance
Dance from a high rope
Burns like a pyro, she's got me there
Venus you're just to blame - oh, this is lunacy
Again and again it's the same

[Chorus]

Sly clever woman, you're my saving grace
But only planets can show... a lying face!
A face!

Waiting for a star
Oh, I'm waiting
Hoping for another light
Waiting for a star
Takes me years, takes me years

Waiting for a star
Hoping for another light
Waiting for a star
It takes me years away

Waiting for a star (x6)
