Being on stage is the best part of my career. I just say whatever comes into my head. It's the only time I feel grown-up and in control of things.

Control
I love the way you look at me
I feel the pain you place inside
you lock me up inside your dirty cage
while I'm alone inside my mind
I'd like to teach you all the rules
I get to see them set in stone
I like it when you chain me to the bed
well then your secrets never shone
I need to feel you
you need to feel me
I can't control you
you're not the one for me no
I can't control you
you can't control me
I need to feel you
so why's it involve
I love the way you rape my skin
I feel the hate you place inside
I need to get your voice out of my head
'cause I'm the guy you'll never find
I faking all of the rules
theres no expresions on your face
I'm hopeing someday you will let me go
release me from my dirty cage
I need to feel you
you need to feel me
I can't control you
you're not the one for me no
I can't control you
you can't control me
I need to feel you
so why's it involve
you and me
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
I have control of you
(repeat 4X)
I need to feel you
you need to feel me
I can't control you
you're not the one for me no
I can't control you
you can't control me
I need to feel you
so why's it involve
you and me
You're not the one for me no
You're not the one for me no
You're not the one for me no
You're not the one for me no

Control
Control control
control control! !
Too many times a day
control!
Control the sleeping
time, the wake!
Control amount
of coffee, milk,
sugar intake!
Control breakfast,
lunch and dinner's time,
Also the calories
and vitamins to come!
Control your words
control your thoughts
control the sitting
straight out pose
Control own look
from head- to toes!
Forget not those
that count
the most:
Feelings! !
Control them!
Out not to let
controlling self
to not became a threat
to whom or what
to ask I wouldn't dare
right now, I wouldn't
even care..
No more control!
No keeping sane!
FREE! ! !
as the Wind who's
messing up my hair
I - Want - To- Be! ! ! !
Let others have control,
not me! ? !
Control..control control
control? !
Oh, pardon me! -bull s..!
I had enough:
-I'M OUT OF IT! ! !

Getting Old
When you’re young you think you know it all
Then you get old and life begins to unfold.
In their youth they don’t think ahead
The future is something they do not dread.
They feel that everything in life they can control
They’re young and strong and very bold.
Aaaah! Those beautiful days bring back memories
Of how simple life used to be.
Youth had respect for the elderly
And their fellow man.
Now the elderly they try to scam.
When they are older they will see
They want respect and to live with dignity.
they are young and they don’t seem to understand
That with age you may need a helping hand.
Everything in life comes in stages
It’s like a book when you turn the pages
It gets deeper and keeps you enthralled
Until the time that you reach the end
And you’ve lost all your family and friends.
The First stage is when you are a child
And someone is taking care of you for that while.
The Second stage is when you become a teen
And you feel like a king or queen.
You feel that you can not get old
This is what you believe at this stage in your life
Because you’re not looking at the struggles and strife.
The Third stage is the adolescent years
And you feel you’re in control and lose your fears.
The final stage is when you become old and gray
And your youthful years have slipped away.
You look back and ask yourself!
where did All those years go?
Why did I waste so much time?
And the most important thing is
That I am so glad I made you mine
For with you by my side I had a life divine.
So to the youth who have not gotten to this stage
Don’t get angry, and get rid of your rage.
There is no way to turn back the time
For time just moves straight ahead
You’re getting to the point that you now dread.
WELCOME TO OLD AGE! HA-HA

Showbusiness
Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the man on the tv with a phoney smile
Bring you up, bring you down
He can turn your head around
In showbusiness, showbusiness
See the man on a silver screen
With the phoney smile
Bring you up, bring you down
He can turn your head around
Showbusiness, showbusiness
Have a hit, maybe two
Make mincemeat out of you
Come back in two years time
Lay your heart right on the line
In showbusiness, showbusiness
Showbusiness, showbusiness
Wheres the next one, wheres the next one
Wheres the next one
Oh, baby just like the last one
Like the last one
Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the man in the suit
With the phoney smile
He can laugh, he can cry
He can make you reach the sky,
He can say anything you wanna hear
Be anything you wanna be
You can say anything you want to hear
Be anything you want him to be
Make you leave your family
In showbusiness, in showbusiness
Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
How can you do it like the last one
Now do it just like the last one, please
Like the last one, like the last one just like the last one
Say you wanna be in showbusiness
Have a pretty face and a pretty smile
Im thinking
Make you laugh and they can make you cry
But they cant wait, wipe the tear drops from your eye
In showbusiness, showbusiness
Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the rock star up on the stage
Right now
Behind them drugs, behind them booze
Behind them people he can use
Behind them people usin them
Behind them people usin us
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Can you make it, just like the last one
Oh, you make it just like the last one
Like the last one
Just like the last one
Say you wanna be in showbusiness
All the world is a stage
Everybody must play their part,
Ive been so long in showbusiness
I feel right now just like I got myself just started
Forget the junk, forget the jive
I just want to stay alive
In showbusiness, in showbusiness
Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Oh, just like the last one, just like the last one
Like the last one
They can rob you with a fountain pen
But you got to find some honest men
They can make you leave your home
Where you go to waste and roam
Control your fate, control your life
They can make you leave your wife
Its showbusiness, its showbusiness
Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Oh, just like the last one, can you make it
Like the last one
Can you give it one more time
Like the last one
Can you put it out, like the last one
Showbusiness, its showbusiness
Its showbusiness, showbusiness
Its showbusiness, showbusiness

I read once that the two worst things that can happen in your life are: achieving your dreams, and not achieving your dreams. I'm living living my dream and I'm scared. I think that it can't go on like this because it's too perfect. I can't plan my life because at this stage in my career I'm not in control of it. I believe in fate; after all, it happened to me.

You Was My Everything
I remember those times well
As I look back and see your face
Although time had marched on
And you have been misplaced
You Was My Everything
It wasn't my way of doing things
But it just happened that way
A tear falls here and there
For love had not come to stay
You Was My Everything
We can't control our future
Even though love has grown inside
The sadest part of this reality
Is when love decides to finally die
You Was My Everything

Get Off The Stage
Oh, you silly old man
You silly old man
Youre making a fool of yourself
So get off the stage
You silly old man
In your misguided trousers
With your mascara and your fender guitar
And you think you can arouse us ?
But the song that you just sang
It sounds exactly like the last one
And the next one
I bet you it will sound
Like this one
Downstage, and offstage
Dont you feel all run in ?
And do you wonder when they will take it away ?
This is your final fling
But then applause ran high
But for the patience of the ones behind you
As a verse drags on like a month drags on
Its very short, but it seems very long
And the song that you just sang
It sounds exactly like the last one
And the next one
I bet you it will sound
Like this one
So, get off the stage
Oh, get off the stage
And when we get down off of the stage
Please stay off the stage - all day !
Get off the stage
Oh, get off the stage
And when weve had our money back
Then Id like your back in plaster
Oh, I know that you say
How age has no meaning
Oh, but here is your audience now
And theyre screaming :
Get off the stage
Oh, get off the stage
Because Ive given you enough of my time
And the money that wasnt even mine
Have you seen yourself recently ?
Oh, get off the stage
Oh, get off the stage
For whom, oh ...
For whom, oh ...
For whom, oh ...
For whom, oh ...
Get off the stage
Get off the stage
Get off the stage
For whom the bell tolls

I Can't Control Myself
I can't stand still cause you've got me goin'
Your slacks are low and your hips are showin'
I take you girl as you're standin' there
Your low cut slacks and your long black hair
Don't want you goin' round with no one else
'cause when I'm with you I can't control myself
Defenses down and you got me shakin'
You got me so that my nerves are breakin'
If you knew me like I know you girl
Your knees would bend and your hair would curl
You make me move yea like no one else
'cause when I'm with you I can't control myself
I've got this feeling that's inside of me
It makes me think of how things used to be
It makes me feel alright
When I'm with you at night and we love
And we love
You thrill me so with this big temptation
This kind of feelin' could move a nation
And I'm okay when I'm here with you
I do the things that you want me to
I do these things for no one else
'cause when I'm with you I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself

Pretending To See The Future
Avoiding this is like avoiding a plague
We cant understand the advances we made
Weve tried to resist but its so hard to say no
Were pretending to see what the future will hold
We appear to be in control of our fate
Just like soldiers believe theyre in control of a war
But its moving so fast we cannot see what weve done
Were losing our eyes just to say that weve won
My minds made up, my heart is broke
My fortunes is made me and I feel so choked
I cant understand how we could ever believe
The things we asked for but never received
We never understood the times we asked
The way we wasted all that passed
This neglect is final its a stage we must
Endure to ever hope to see the first
My minds made up about the things we did
We never saw we believed we couldnt say what we missed
My minds made up, my heart is broke
My fortunes is made me and I feel so choked
I cant understand how we could ever believe
The things we asked for but never received
By making noises which we cannot control
The things we hoped that wed never forgo
We appear to be in control of our fate
Just like soldiers believe theyre in control of a war
But its moving so fast we cannot see what weve done
Were losing our eyes just to say that weve won
My minds made up, my heart is broke
My fortunes is made me and I feel so choked
I cant understand how we could ever believe
The things we asked for but never received

When I'm on stage, it's a little world I've created where I'm sort of the thing, so I have total control over everything that happens. When we're improvising, I'm with someone I totally trust. I know things are going to work out. I don't have those guarantees in life. There are no consequences on stage.

Mr. Self Destruct
i am the voice inside your head and i control you
i am the lover in your bed and i control you
i am the sex that you provide and i control you
i am the hate you try to hide and i control you
i take you where you want to go
i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up

i speak religion's message clear and i control you
i am denial guilt and fear and i control you
i am the prayers of the naive and i control you
i am the lie that you believe and i control you

i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up

i am the needle in your vein and i control you
i am the high you can't sustain and i control you
i am the pusher i'm a whore and i control you
i am the need you have for more and i control you
i am the bullet in the gun and i control you
i am the truth from which you run and i control you
i am the silencing machine and i control you
i am the end of all your dreams and i control you
i take you where you want to go
i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up

The Things We See
The things we see are the things which make us proud,
because they make people jealous on a daily basis.
The things we see make us to be famous,
because we expose the truth, by promoting honesty.
The things we see make us feel jealous, curious, hopeful,
career driven & self motivated.
The things we see make us feel at home all the time.

I Feel So Lonely Now That She's Gone
I feel so lonely now that she's gone
Does she feel the same way?
I don't really think she does.
Maybe she does but she's trying to hide it
Or she doesn't want to admit it
Will time be the true teller
Or will time draw us further apart
A feel so lonely now that she's gone
It's like a part of me is no longer with me
And I cannot function without that part
But things will get better over time
And I won't feel so lonely anymore

God's Glory
Sometimes we say things, we don't
know if we really mean,
Sometimes we feel the way we feel
without knowing why,
Sometimes we think very deeply &
and wonder if things could be,
Sometimes we act foolishly &
we'll say, 'Hei, that was beyond me',
Sometimes we had the need to take time
meditating on some things,
And that's where we learned that Somebody
is in control of our mind, our heart
& even our very soul...
It was God's plan, His own will and His
own glory after all...

Last I've Cheched It Was Mine
i look back
who life is it?
you tell me things
but, do i have a say?
i don't get a word in
do you care how i feel?
lost and confuse
over the things you do.
i'm getting there.
i wish i can say the same about you,
i changed in ways,
i can't explain,
but, you remain the same.
never could accept what people had to say.
because you don't believe it true.
why you telling me,
all of these things?
don't i have a life?
last i've cheched i did.
but, you can't control yours,
must you control mine?
you put me down just to feel good,
is that what you want?
because i'm sick of you.
just let me be me,
because you not helping me!

Head Over Heels
Sitting here with you
You ask me why my tongue is tied
Ive try to make some sense of all these things I feel inside
Ive been searching for the perfect words to say
Theyve been said a thousand times but they mean more today
Cuz Im head over heels for you
And all of the things you do
The heavens and earth have moved
And Im falling head over heels for you
So baby there it is
Ive let it go and now you know
Its funny how feelings start so small and starts to grow
I had every line rehearsed Id say to you today
Then you looked into my eyes and they just slipped away
Cuz Im head over heels for you
And all of the things you do
The heavens and earth have moved
And Im falling head over heels for you
Head over heels
Heart over mind
Youve got me body and soul (youve got me baby)
Ive never dreamed in a million years Id lose complete control
Im head over heels for you
And all of the things you do
The heavens and earth have moved
And Im falling head over heels for you
(Head over heels for you)
Im falling head over heels for you
Oh Im falling, Im falling

Influenza
I can feel, I can tell
I can feel, I can tell, I can see
Something is changing
To me change is no stranger
I dont run, I dont hide
I dont run, I dont hide, I dont fight
What fate arranges
I dont think about danger
If it was meant for me
Id know just where to go
But if I can take it slow
Then I might be in control
In the back of my head
In the back of my head there is doubt
There is suspicion
With my new fascination
I dont know what it is
I dont know what it is, you might say
Its intuition
Its a true indication
I should trust myself
I should beware of this
But its like a strangers kiss
And somehow I cant resist
I can feel my will slip away
From a strange influenza
I can feel my mind slip away
Under your influenza
I can feel my heart slip away
Under your influenza
Theres a part of my heart
Theres a part of my heart that cries out
Please go no further
I just cant take the pressure
So I try to resist
So I try to resist and my heart
Tells me dont bother
That this pain is a pleasure
If I were someone else
I wouldnt disagree
But its always hard to see
When somethings controlling me
