1. ELO KIDDIES

'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Whatcha gonna do when the lights start shining
'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Whatcha gonna do when your head's exploding
So you missed some school
You know that school's for fools
Today money rules
And everybody steals it
'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Whatcha gonna do when your stomach's burning
'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Whatcha gonna do when your guts are churning
You lead a life of crime
You got to go unwind
You haven't got much time
You know they're out to get you
'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Whatcha gonna do when you got religion
'Ello kiddies
'Ello kiddies
Hope you didn't get it on the television
So you missed some school
You know that school's for fools
Today money rules
And everybody steals it
You lead a life of crime
You got to go unwind
You haven't got much time
You know they're out to get you


2. HIGH ROLLER

Jump in my love car
Don't have to go very far
Just far enough to show you a thing or two

I can really swing
The best of everything
And i want to have a thing with you

High roller
What I buy is mine
And I always get the things that I choose
My, my, my, such a high roller
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you

I'm in the mood for love
You're all I'm thinking of
I'll make you feel alright when we're alone

I can really swing
The best of everything
And I want to have a thing with you

High roller
What I buy is mine
And I always get the things that I choose
My, my, my, such a high roller, is that you?
I knew you'd be here tonight
And I'll make it alright
I'll take real good care of you
I'll tuck you in tonight
And I'll make it alright
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you


3. SOUTHERN GIRLS

I've been north,
I've been east to the california beach
There's only one place I know where to find you
And all you southern girls got a way with your words
And you show it
You say hump and I'll jump
You say go and I'll know
Waste no time getting
So close to you
And you'll never run way
When you find out why I wanted to find you

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose

I've been up I've been down
I've been weak I've been strong
But I never met someone like you
And you'll never run away
When you find why I wanted to find you
You say hump and I'll jump
You say go and I'll know
Waste no time getting
So close to you
All you southern girls
Got a way with your words
And you show it

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose

You think this boy, he loves you
Southern girls
You make it hard oh, so hard
I've been north, I've been east to the california beach
There's only one place I know where to find you
And all you southern girls got a way with your words
And you show it

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah

Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls
Southern girls

4. SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE

Yesterday feels like running away
Feels like givin' the child gettin' lost losin' my mind
I'm feelin' low and I got no place to go
Gettin' all tied up, feelin' all tied up yeah yeah
Oh yesterday feels like running away
And i know, I'm givin' up my time to still love still love Love's got me blind
My mind sees the things I don't know and I got no place to Go
Gettin' all tied up, feelin' all tied up
Things I need to tell you love
You'll be true I know
There's still a chance for a better life
Yes, I know


5. CALIFORNIA MAN

Goin' to a party,
Meet me on after school.
Well we're goin to a place
where the jive is really cool.

And if the band stops a playin'
There's a jukebox down the hall.
And with your blue dress on, your folks all gone.
You're sure to give the guys a ball.

Get that real guitar boy shakin',
I'm a california man,
Dance right on till the floors are breakin'
I'm a california man.

Well I rocked my mamma so bad
This a woman's she's a making me mad.
Well I don't care if her legs start aching,
I'm a california man.

I'm a california man.

Oh my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name.
Well, my knees keep a knockin,
And my bow tie's bustin' out

When my feet start to fly,
An' my jeans slung way down low.
You know I'm back on my heels and it's making me feel
Like the king of rock n' roll


6. DOWNED

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head

I'm gonna live on a mountain
Way down under in australia
It's either that or suicide
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I got a mind
Over you it's not the first time
Ooh, I got a mind

Rainbow's crawling on a midday sun
But I've been lucky you're the only one
Sunday's calling, you'll be number one
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, you think of jesus christ
You walk on water but don't bet your life, oh no
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head

Too many people want to save the world
Another problem is it a boy or girl
Some say the weekend is the only world
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I've got a mind
Over you it's not the first time
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head


7. STIFF COMPETITION

Stiff competition
If i go up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
And when I'm down- you take me higher
There's stiff competition all over the world
I screw you-you screw me-they screw us
Here we go again
Oh- but we have so much fun, so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together-now
I looked hard in your eyes
It was love at first sight
It took me minutes-you're still waiting
Waiting for your turn, you turn
It won't be long
Stiff competition
I work hard-every day of my life
Stiff competition
Get it up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
All over the world
The more I get- the more I like it
The bigger they are- the harder they fall
Again
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition


8. HOW ARE YOU

Hello
How are you?
How'd you sleep last night?
Did you dream of me all night?
How are you?

Wake up
Good morning
You shouldn't sleep all day
Such a beautiful day
How are you?
Good morning
What's with you?
How could you?

I heard your voice
I couldn't stand it
You know you talk too much
You even scare my friends
What's with you?

The world you said
I know you're lying
You lie in bed
You lie, you lie
You lie there crying
What's with you?
How could you?
Why did you?

Hey, hey
I said it's alright
Come on, come on
I've been working all night
Hey, hey
I said it's okay
Come on, come on
I've been working all day
Working all day, hey!

Hello
How are you?
I couldn't sleep last night
I dreamed of you all night
Good morning

Get up
I know you're lying
You lie in bed
You lie, you lie
You lie there crying
What's with you?
How could you?
Why did you?

Hey, hey
I said it's alright
Come on, come on
I've been working all night
Hey, hey
I said it's okay
Come on, come on
I've been working all day
Working all day, hey!

Hello
How are you?
I dreamed of you last night
Hello
How are you?
I dreamed of you all night

I said I want you
I want you, need you, love you
Want you to want me
Remember?

Hello
How are you?
How'd you sleep last night?
Did you dream of me all night?
Good morning
How are you?
How are you?

Hey, hey

Hey, hey
I said it's okay
Come on, come on

Come on, come on
I've been working all night
Hey, hey
I said it's okay

I've been working all day
Working all day, hey!


9. ON TOP OF THE WORLD

You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't
Get any higher-You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
It wasn't easy- it was hard as hell
You didn't get luck in a wishin' well
Never worked so hard- had so much pain
Wouldn't change for anything
Learned love from a movie screen
He was tough, she was wild at fifteen
Quit school and had no dreams
Wasn't going very far
Then he got religion and she got a god
It's on her back and it's in his job
And it costs lots of money, honey- oh, no
Breakdown nearly every day
Shoulda known- couldn't get away
Got lucky with the girl next door
She was lonely and didn't care
She was young, she was dark, she was fair
Wrapped herself around you with her stare
You'd explode if she would touch you there
Touch you there- touch you there
Tonight, tonight-tonight-tonight
You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't
Get any higher
You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) you're on top of the World tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) you're on top of the World tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) you're on top of the World tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) you're on top of the World tonight


10. CAN'T HOLD ON

You've been coming
You've made it easy
You've said just the thing

Now I can't hold on
To these words
Don't mean that much to me
Feel out in the cold
No one to turn to

It's my sunset
My sun's set

Never thought it's come to this
Now it seems the only way, to do it right
Never thought it'd come to this
Just can't hold on, oh no

Feel out in the cold
No one to turn to
There's no way out
Just can't hold on

It's my sunset
My sun will set

I've been gone, gone, gone
Can't hold on


11. OH CAROLINE

Oh Caroline
My life shined when you walked in
Oh Caroline
My world shined when you came in

And if I go all over the world
I wouldn't find another lover like you
And if I knew a million girls, Caroline

Go to the end of the world for your love
Go to the end of the world for your love

Oh Caroline
My heart shined when you came in
Oh Caroline
Life means more since you came in

And if I go all over the world
I wouldn't find another lover like you
And if I knew a million girls, Caroline

(Go to the end of the world) for your love
(Go to the end of the world) for your love
(Go to the end of the world) for your love, love, love oh
Caroline
(Go to the end of the world) for your love

Can you feel my heart strings?
They're on fire
You threw it all away

(Go to the end of the world) oh Caroline, oh Caroline
(Go to the end of the world) love, love, love, love oh Caroline
(Go to the end of the world) love
(Go to the end of the world) for your love, love


12. AUF WIEDERSEHN

Au revoir, auf wiedersehen
You won't see another morning
You won't see another evening
Good night
Buenas noches oh senor!
Senorita see ya later
Buenas noches bye-bye
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is a joke
And for you we sing this final song
For you there is no hope
Sayonara oh suicide hari kari
Kamikaze you won't
See another evening
Goodbye
Bye-bye so long, farewell
See you later....suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
