Lyrics

1. WOMEN

In the beginning god made the land
Then he made the water and creatures
Then he made man

He was born with a passion, love and hate
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
But there was something that was missing
Something lost

So he came with the answer, here's what it cost
One part love, one part wild
One part lady, one part child

I give you
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them

And in the garden, lust began
The animal instinct, the wanton man

She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild

I give you
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them

Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them

Skin on skin, let the love begin
Women

It was one part love, one part wild
One part lover, one part child

A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice

I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
Legs, thighs
What's that spell

Women, women, oh, oh
Women, women, callin' every girl

Women, women, all around the world
Women, women, oh we can't live without them
Women, women


2. TEAR IT DOWN

You got the look of a howlin wolf
I like it

The kind of eyes that could start a fire
Yes, i like it
A streetwise dynamo

I switch you on and i watch you go
A thrill to touch, youre so hot
Im coming for you ready or not

Im gettin ready
Livin on the edge of a dream
Gettin ready, i'm gettin ready
Oh, switch on your lovin machine

Tear it down
Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

I cant wait another day
Tear it down

Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

If only you could stay
All night long

Come on
Im on fire, youre all ice
Once too much is twice as nice

Get tough, fools luck
One bite and Im hooked

A black cat with a silver tongue
A quick lick and youre gone

One kiss, it hots up
Too close aint close enough

Im gettin ready
Living on the edge of a dream
Gettin ready, i'm gettin ready
Oh, so switch on your lovin machine

Tear it down
Theres got to be a better way

Tear it down
I cant wait another day
Tear it down
Theres got to be a better way

Tear it down
If only you could stay
All night long

Im gettin ready
Living on the edge of a dream
Gettin ready, i'm gettin ready
Come on, switch on your lovin machine

Tear it down
Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

I cant wait another day
Tear it down

Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

If only you could stay
Tear it down

Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

I cant wait another day
Tear it down

Theres got to be a better way
Tear it down

If only you could stay
All night
