2. DEEP CUTS THE KNIFE

Lately, all the nights are all the same
Since you said goodbye

I'm all alone
The only voice is my own

Did you hear me?
Are you near me?
Did you know that I hurt this bad?

Did you love me?
Did you need me?
Whole world just a dream I had

This memory haunts me forever

Better run for my life
Hide from the light
Dark is the night
Deep cuts the knife
No way
I'll get away
Memories here to stay
Deep cuts the knife

Lately, I see your face in everything I do
Sleepless nights I lie in bed just thinkin' of you

I can't pretend
That I don't need you back again

Did you love me?
Did you need me
Well alright, but what's so wrong?

This memory haunts me forever

Better run for my life
Hide from the light
Dark is the night
Deep cuts the knife
No way
I'll get away
Memories here to stay
Deep cuts the knife

I am your slave
Got no defender
You flash the blade
I can't escape
I can't surrender

Run for my life
Hide from the light
Dark is the night
Deep cuts the knife

No way
I'll get away
Memories here to stay

Better run for my life
Hide from the light
Dark is the night
Deep cuts the knife

No way
I'll get away
Memories here to stay
Deep cuts the knife

Deep cuts
Deep cuts the knife
(Deep cuts the knife)
Better run, better run for my life
(Deep cuts the knife)
Oh deep cuts the knife
(Deep cuts the knife)
Oh, memories here to stay
It won't go away
Deep cuts the knife

I am your slave

4. LONG WAY TO HEAVEN

I open up those pearly gates
Hahahahaha!

Saints and sinners
Losers and winners
It's all up to you

Well I'm such a mess
And I must confess
What you've heard is true

Too many women
Too many bars
Too many songs about sex, drugs and rock n' roll

It's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(Three short steps)

Now it's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(Three short steps)

I want my wings
And that's the thing
I have to wait

Cause there's three reasons
I won't be seeing you at
St Peter's Gates

Too many women
Too many bars
Too many songs about sex, drugs and rock n' roll

It's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
Three short steps

Now it's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(Three short steps)

Now it's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(Three short steps)

Now it's a long way to Heaven
(Long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell

Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
Keep me rockin' for Heaven's sake

Yeah
Save my soul
Woo!

Mercy
Hahaha!

(It's a long, long way to Heaven)
It's a long way to Heaven
But only three short steps to Hell
(It's a long, long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(It's a long, long way to Heaven)
Yeah, but only three short steps to Hell
(It's a long, long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps to Hell
(It's a long, long way to Heaven)
But only three short steps
Three short steps
Three short steps to Hell


5. HOUSE ON FIRE

Oh, lets go

Open the door
Come inside
Won't you feel my heat

This house is on fire
Burnin' up

It's a shakin' disease
Make me weak in the knees
I can't hold back

This house is on fire
Burnin' up

So hot

On your face

6. CHRISTINE

High heels and mini skirts
Cruise on down the avenue
I hear talk about how she looks
Ha, if they only knew

She's got legs
Right up to her neck
She's got legs
With a one fish net
Drives the boys insane
Well when my lady comes a sruttin'

Ow

(Christine) I love the way you walk
(Christine) Uh-huh, ooh yeah
(Christine) Come on make your body talk
(Christine)

All the boys, though they try
Well, they're just wasting time
As for me now, I should know
Well that girl, she's mine

She's got legs
Right up to her neck
She's got legs
And a fly fish net
Drives the boys insane
Well when my lady comes a sruttin'

Ugh!

(Christine) I like the way she walks
(Christine) Ooh yeah, uh-huh
(Christine) Come on make your body talk
(Christine) Yeah

(Christine) I like the way you walk
(Christine) Ooh yeah, uh-huh

7. WITHOUT YOU (JASMINE'S SONG)

If I wrote it down in a song
The love I had for you
My heart would sing a melody
Of love in perfect tune

Harmony's a kiss away
It's returned in your eyes
With tenderness and feeling
Returned between the lies

Without you
The nicest song is sung
Without you
I'm a day without the sun
Without you
Love will lose it's spell
Without you
I'm a ship without a sail

At the end of it, the rainbow
There's a pot of gold, it's true
That's why all the highways
They always lead to you

All I have are simple words
I give that cheers this song
Won't you please think of me
When the road it is to long

Without you
The nicest song is sung
Without you
I'm a day without the sun
Without you
Love will lose it's spell
Without you

Without you
Nicest song is sung
Without you
I'm a day without the sun
Without you
Love will lose it's spell
Without you
I'm a ship without a sail


8. SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS

Livin' in the streets
Has it's own set of rules
Take it on the chin boy
If you wanna stay cool

They'll knock you down if you let 'em
They'll push you round you bet
Gotta stay alive
Cause only the strongest are gonna survive

At the school of hard knocks
It's a long, long education
At the school of hard knocks
Everyday's a learning situation

You gotta past the test
You gotta make the grade
Keep a stiff upper lip boy
Don't show 'em no pain

They'll knock you down if you let 'em
They'll push you round you bet
Gotta stay alive
Cause only the strongest are gonna survive

At the school of hard knocks
It's a long, long education
At the school of hard knocks
On the streets there ain't no fakin'

At the school of hard knocks
Well it's a long, long education
At the school of hard knocks
Everyday's a learning situation

At the school of hard knocks
It's a long, long education
At the school of hard knocks
Everyday's a learning situation

At the school of hard knocks
It's a long, long education
At the school of hard knocks
On the streets there ain't no fakin', no, no, no

"Hey you, come back here kid."
"Hey somebody call the cops."


9. DON'T TOUCH THE MERCHANDISE

Waltz inside, bargain bin lingerie, second floor

10. BANGIN' OFF-A-THE BRICKS

Well I remember back many years ago
To those old practice halls
Cheap guitar and a beat up amp
Where we always had our fun

Tryin' to pretend
When we turn it up to ten

Bangin' off-a-the bricks
We were just gettin' our kicks
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
Jammin', jammin', jammin' those lyrics

Never had no money, just a lot of dreams
Knowin' some things passed you by
The feeling I get, the person I've met
Ooh yeah, the sparks would fly

You know you can't pretend
When you turn it up to ten

Bangin' off-a-the bricks
We were just gettin' our kicks
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
Jammin', jammin', jammin' those lyrics
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
We were just gettin' our kicks
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
Jammin', jammin', jammin' those lyrics

Bangin' off-a-the
Bangin' off-a-the
Bangin' off-a-the
Bricks

Yeah

Ahh!

Ah just me and the boys
And this old brick wall
Havin' our fun
That's all

Bangin' off-a-the bricks
We were just gettin' our kicks
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
Jammin', jammin', jammin' those lyrics
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
We were just gettin' our kicks
Bangin' off-a-the bricks
Jammin', jammin', jammin' those lyrics

Bangin' off-a-the
Bangin' off-a-the
Bangin' off-a-the
Bricks
