Lyrics


1. TENSION

Lightning, Lightning, Lightning in the sky
Fire, Fire, Fire, Firefly
Thunder, Thunder, here we go again
Burning, Burning, it will never end

Sweet deductive fame
Begging to be claimed
Luring us with chains
Chains of gold
Masters of our fate
Who dares to be great?
We won't hesitate
Take command

Fever, Fever, Fever in the air
Feel it, Feel it, Feel it everywhere
Everywhere.


2. COME ALIVE

Can't you see it my way
Don't you know that you'r wrong
Sit and waste your life away
Don't you know where you belong

Give yourself a chance to live
You're so young and free
Step outside and meet the world
You've got so much to see

I know it ain't your style
You're oh so young
Be yourself just a little while
Life has just begun

Don't be afraid my dear
Open up your mind
Leave behind your living hell
You're one of a kind

I know it ain't your style
You're oh so young
Be yourself just a little while
Life has just begun

Come alive, Come alive, Come alive...


3. LOCOMOTION

Sittin' in a hotel
Clock strikes half past two
I gotta get my rocks off
Baby I want you

I need your loving'
Got some time to kill
Sock it to me baby
Let me have my fill

I need some: Locomotion

Rockin' you baby
Show me what you've got
Let me park my honey, honey
In your parking lot

I need your loving', baby
Give me what I need
I said break it to me softly
Let me plant my seed

I need some: Locomotion


4. SIMPLE SONG

I'm writing you this simple song
To show you how I feel
You know the days away from you
Are seemigly unreal

I met some friends from a noter ship
A rather peaceful lot
They know I'm far and all alone
And I live with what I've got

Singing my simple song, simple song

Out in space there is no time
There is no day or night
Valhalla is so far away
I see her distant light

I will return some day my dear
From planets near and far
Look up to the heavens and you will see
I'm towards the morning star

Singing my simple song, simple song


5. EASY MONEY

You been working' every day
You just can't get away
I'm haven' so much fun
Just rakin' in your pay
Tell me that you love me
Gimme all your money
I'm in love with the stuff
I can't get enough of...

...easy money

I hope you understand,
I'm an independent man
I need a lot of time
For the boys in the band
Clothe me and feed me
Buy me a brand new car
Gimme all your money, honey
Baby we'll go far on...

...easy money

Work gives me a rash
Just for petty cash
Life was made for fun
Grab your coat, let's have a bash

Tell me that you love me
Gimme all your money
I'm in love with the stuff
I can't get enough of...

...easy money


6. FRIDAY

On a desert isle, not so very long ago
There lived a humble man, that we've all
come to know
Alone for all these years, he's been living off
the land
No one else around to lend a helping hand

Friday, we all need your Friday
Friday, all work and no play
Friday, yes we love you Friday
Friday, all work and no play

Every one of us is living for that day
No one like sot work, it's much more fun to play
Robinson Crusoe was a hard working man
Until that fateful day he saw the footprint in
the sand

Friday, we all need your Friday
Friday, all work and no play
Friday, yes we love you Friday
Friday, all work and no play

When he found his man, he also saw the light
(He said) you shall be my slave, for I saved
you from your plight
I shall work no more, i will not compromise
You shall work for me, for I am so civilized

Friday, we all need your Friday
Friday, all work and no play
Friday, yes we love you Friday
Friday, all work and no play


7. WIZARD KING

Prologue:
Beneath the waves, the water babes
Share a joke in glee
As Adam plants
The apple seeds
And the serpent slips
To the sea...

The gates of hell are opened wide
Why don't you come and step aside
You've lived a life of sin and greed
And now your soul cannot be freed

The lord below is beckoning you
And there is nothing you can do
You've lived and loved now pay the price
The wizard king never beckons twice

The gates of hell are opened wide
Why don't you come and step aside
Time is on my side
Here is the King
Time is on my side
I am the King


8. GOING HOME

I'm not so young, that I can't see
All the tricks, you've played on me
Look away, look away, look away
Look away, look away, look away

Can't you see the times have changed
My mind is opened wide
Can't you see the times have changed
For good

What do I see when I open
My yes in the morning
I see a new day without you
again is approaching
Oh! Going home

You're always away
I never know where to find you
You know I can't live
Can't live without you
Oh! Going home

Why do you treat me as though
I were made out of paper
Love me tonight, leave me
Sooner or later
Oh! Going home
