2. SHOOZ
Well it's Friday nite and the streets
are full of the weekends with their green
Soldier boys looking left and right
at all the sights there to be seen
Well you can be there's a loaner
who'd love to see you be so sweet
That's why I'm telling you to get on
your shooz and get out there on the street
And get your rockin'
Rock n'Roll Shooz
Up and down around they go with
their heads turning all around
Way down there on the corner
there's a Cadillac that's easy to be found
Way down there in Chicago, down
along Division street
The boys are just looking for a girl
like you to make their stay in town a treat
So get your rockin'
SRock n'Roll Shooz
They all love it baby, they keep
comin' back for more
Rock n'Roll Shooz

3. CRYSTAL BALL
I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line
I used to think that everything was fine
I'd like to sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams
All alone and trapped in time
All alone and trapped in time
I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am I even in it's mind at all
Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Tell me, tell me where I'm going
I don't know where I've been
Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me
And then tell me again
My heart is breaking, body's aching
And I don't know where to go
Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me
I've just got to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things I've got to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
Crystal ball
There's so many things I've got to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
["extra verse" used occasionally live]
If you should see me walking
Through your dreams at night
Would you please direct me
Where I ought to be
I've been looking for a crystal ball
To shed the light
To find a future in me...
To find a future in me...
Crystal ball
There's so many things I've got to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things I need to know
Crystal ball

4. MISS AMERICA
You were the apple of the public's eye as you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us - how can it be real?
We loved your body in that photograph, your home state sure must be proud
The queen of the United States, have you lost your crown?
Well aren't you, Miss America?
Don't you, Miss America?
Won't you, Miss America?
Our love?
Well are you really who we think you are?
Or does that smile seem to wear you down?
Is the girl who you once were screaming to jump out?
This dream that you must live - a disease for which there is no cure
This roller coaster ride you're on won't stop to let you off?
Well aren't you, Miss America?
Don't you, Miss America?
Won't you, Miss America?
Our love?
Miss America, Miss America
Miss America, Miss America
Well it's true just take a look - The cover sometimes makes the book
And the judges, did they ever ask to read between your lines?
And in your cage at the human zoo, they all stop to look at you
Next year, what will you do when you have been forgotten?
Well aren't you, Miss America?
Don't you, Miss America?
Won't you, Miss America?
Our love?

5. MAN IN THE WILDERNESS
Another year has passed me by
Still I look a myself and cry
What kind of man have I become?
All of the years I've spent in search of myself
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone
Sometimes I feel like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely soldier off to war
Sent away to die - never quite knowing why
Sometimes it makes no sense at all
Ten Thousand people look my way
But they can't see the way that I feel
Nobody even cares to try
I spend my life and sell my soul on the road
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone
Sometimes I feel like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely soldier lost at sea
Drifting with the tide
Never quite knowing why
Sometimes it makes no sense at all
(I'm alive)
Looking for love I'm a man with emotion
(And my heart's on fire)
I'm dying of thirst in the middle of the ocean
I'm alive!

6. BLUE COLLAR MAN
Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My God, I'm hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But I've got the power, and I've got the will
I'm not a charity case
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Make me an offer that I can't refuse
Make me respectable, man
This is my last time in the unemployment line
So like it or not I'll take those
Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Keeping my mind on a better life
When happiness is only a heartbeat away
Paradise, can it be all I heard it was
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there

7. RENEGADE
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Law man has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man
Oh Mama, I've been years on the lam and had a high price on my head
Lawman said 'Get him dead or alive' and it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear Mama I can hear you cryin', you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is comin' down from the gallows and I don't have very long
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge'll have revenge today
On the wanted man
Oh Mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law
Law man has put an end to my running and I'm so far from my home
The jig is up, the news is out
They finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This'll be the end today
Of the wanted man

8. SNOWBLIND
Mirror, mirror on the wall
The face you've shown me scares me so
I thought that I could call your bluff
But now the lines are clear enough
Life's not pretty even though
I've tried so hard to make it so
Mornings are such cold distress
How did I ever get into this mess
I'm snow-blind, can't live without you
So fine I just can't get away
Now I'm snow-blind, snow-blind, snow-blind
Harmless and innocent you devil in white
You stole my will without a fight
You filled me with confidence, but you blinded my eyes
You tricked me with visions of Paradise
Now I realize I'm
Snow-blind, can't live without you
So fine I just can't get away
Now I'm snow-blind, snow-blind, snow-blind
Mirror, mirror I confess
I can't escape this emptiness
No more reason to pretend
Here comes that same old feeling again
Snow-blind, can't live without you
So fine I just can't get away
Won't you throw me a lifeline
I'm going down for the third time
I'm snow-blind, and I can't get away

9. HEAVY METAL POISONING
What the devil's goin' on
Why don't your turn that music down
YOu're going deaf and that's for sure
But all you do is scream for more
Get the lead out go for broke
Pop your pills and drink and smoke
Shoot those chemicals into your vein
Anything to ease the pain
Chorus
Heavy metal poisoning
Got a toxic wasteland in your ear canal
You're overloaded, you're suffering
Overloaded on sex and drugs
Everything is black and white
You are wrong and we are right
First we'll spank your big behinds
Then we'll twist your little minds
I'm Dr. Righteous, and I'm here to sing
That heavy metal is poisoning
It's a music wasteland, that destroys the young
They're overloaded on sex and drugs
And rock and roll...
Chorus

10. LOVE IS THE RITUAL
Little sister
She got a lot of time she got a lot of money
Don't you know that ain't enough
Pretty thing
All dressed up for the main attraction
Like a baby doll looking for love
And she doesn't need a reason
She just hears a calling to the wild
God gave man the breath of life
To grow up strong to take a wife
To change the world and love is the ritual
You learn to walk & talk & laugh & cry
Heart & soul til the day you die
And above it all love is the ritual
Little man
Beating his chest & flexing his muscles
Gun for hire, he shoots for a star
Like a handsome prince
Walking down the streen in his shining armor
Romeo in search of his heart
There's a method to this madness
And a message calling to the wild
God gave man the breath of life
To grow up strong to take a wife
To change the world and love is the ritual
You learn to walk & talk & laugh & cry
Work your fingers to the bone til the day you die
And above it all love is the ritual
Come on dance little sister, little sister wants to dance
All night looking for true romance
When in a black leather jacket walks little brother
To rock her world, to be her lover
So signal all the children
Send a message calling to the wild

11. LITTLE SUZIE
Somebody lookin' for the answer, somebody dyin' to cut a deal
Somebody got a cure to cancer, somebody drunk behind the wheel
But me, I'm just tryin' to find my little Suzie
Somebody bustin' illegal aliens, somebody burnin' Hollywood
Somebody tryin' to shoot the president,
Someone abused and misunderstood
But, me, I'm just holding up a sign for little Suzie
Somebody reachin' out for Jesus, somebody lookin' for a sign
Somebody said they spotted Elvis, he was healin' the sick and leadin' the blind
But me, I'm just tryin' to make some time for my little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm sneakin' up behind, don't you hear me say
I won't surrender, I will survive, so help me Jesus
We'll be together until the end of all space and time
Everybody's got an infomercial, everybody's psychic on the phone
Somebody had a sex change reversal, somebody thinks nobody knows
Somebody cryin' out for justice, somebody shootin' someone' skid
Somebody caught the perpetrator, somebody swears they never did
But me, I'm just makin' time for my little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm playin' my guitar for my little Suzie
The world is gonna turn from here until doomsday
But I don't give a damn long as I've got little Suzie
I won't surrender, I will survive, so help me Jesus
We'll be together until the end of all space and time
Somebody's awaiting execution, somebody's dyin' to pull the switch
Somebody cries another martyr, somebody screams 'fry the son of a bitch'
But me, I'm just spending time with little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm playing my guitar for little Suzie
Oh me, I'm safe in the arms of little Suzie
