Chewing Gum
With their cardboard hands by their sides,
Heres a naked man and lady
And theyre yours to cut out and keep
So you can dress them up maybe
They dont know just who they are, or who theyre supposed to be
You can make them happy or sad
Or assume their identity
So here they are in the departure lounge
Its the gateway to the east
She is just another mail-order bride
She doesnt know hes a kinky beast
So he gives her a picture of maradona and child
She wants to roll and rock
As he spills his beer over her, bumps and he
Grinds, as he repeats bang-cock
Chorus:
There must be something that is better than this
It starts with a slap and ends up with a kiss
Begins with you bawling and it ends up in tears
Oh my little one, take that chewing gum out of your ears
She might as well be in the jungle
She might as well be on the moon
Hes away on a business trip, in dusseldorf, but shes becoming immune
To the lack of glamour and danger in a west-german city today
The nearest she comes to the dynasty he promised her
Is a chinese takeaway
Chorus
Though he only taught her three little words, it
Doesnt matter if theyre dirty or clean
He can only control what they look like
He can never possess what they mean
Now he wants to whisper in her ear
All the shrinking nothingness
But something always comes between them,
I wonder if you can guess

Make Believe
Chorus:
Why dont we make believe were in love again
Who said the crimson moon doesnt shine
Where do people go when theyre lookin for that one of a kind
Why dont we make believe that were sorry
Why must we hold it all inside
Where do lovers go when theyre runnin and theres no place to hide
Always remember - the day we met in the foreign rain
You were content and - we went our seperate ways
No matter which way the wind blows now, hang on to it anyhow
Dont ever say it could never be the same
Chorus
Always remember - holding hands on a summer day
You were content ob das stimmt? ? and - you took it all away
I didnt come here to change your mind, lead you on and waste your time
All alone in the evening, gettin blue
Why dont we make believe

Why dont we make believe, why dont we make believe

Two Sides Of The Coin
Ive met some ladies and then some girls
But they dont tell you, they just want a whirl
Its kind of funny, a little sad
cause theyre not happy, theyre just kind of glad
To be with me for just a night
And maybe even turn out the lights, well turn out the lights
I need time to ease my mind, make up my mind, which one to find
Chorus:
Two sides of the coin to choose from, two sides of the coin, they are mine
Two sides of the coin, Im gettin weary
Which one should I choose, I need time
Id like to say a word or two, about the women we all seem to know
Theyre all around us, theyre everywhere
You meet them this place and then meet them there
Then you deside to pick a mate
Because youre tired of all those dates, of all those dates
I need time to ease my mind, make up my mind, which one to find
Chorus - choose one!

Tv Movie
I woke up last night shaking from a dream
For in that dream I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great american novel, you see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Chorus:
Well now, its one two three you take the money
Yeah its as easy as a b c
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Well they can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or chinese
And do things that I never did do
Theyre gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when its over, what I did there will be what I done
Now I dont want my name in a history book
Nobodys ever gonna see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
(chorus)
Well Im a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Now I dont want no inscription on my gravestone
No long soliloquy
No theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me

They Dont Make em Like They Used To
Its every young boys fancy
Its there hidden deep in the heart of a man
Its just a feeling
They wont ever understand
They know they gotta have one
A brand new model and its here today
And dont you know that shes made right here in the u.s.a.
(chorus)
Dont ever stop trying
Dont let her get away
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
Keeps you coming back for more
Shes a home grown beauty
Shes born and raised with a mind of her own
And once you find her
Youll never want to leave her alone
Shes making you crazy
You cant live without her, shes here to stay
Dont you know that she lives right here in the u.s.a.
Chorus
They dont make em like they used to
Theyre so much better than before
Im so tired of hearing--(Im so tired)
Some people say--(what people say)
Everything is moving much too fast
Things were better in the good old days
Let them have their opinions--(let them have...)
Never gonna change their mind--(theyll never change)
They lived a long time ago
When times were tough
And a real good woman was hard to find
They dont make em like they used to
I think theyre better than before
Its more than physical attraction
That keeps you coming back for more

Theyre so much better than before

Dirty Laundry
I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em all around
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
Its interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry
You dont really need to find out whats going on
You dont really want to know just how far its gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre stiff
Kick em all around
Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When its said and done we havent told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough
Tears for shields and spears
Tears are not enough
Searching for certainty
When its such an unstable world
Searching for something good
And Im looking for the real mccoy

A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl
Picture in a magazine

Yes youve shown your feelings
Yes youve shown youre tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough

Slam that door, slap my face
But I dont love you anymore
Dry your eyes, sink or swim

We all make great mistakes

Lust For Kicks
Hes got his plastic sneakers
Shes got her robuck purse
Hes got his butane flicker
Shes got it worse
Chorus
Theyre crazy about each other
Like a misplaced fix
Theyre mad about each other
They blame it all on the lust for kicks
Hes got his own dumb waiter
Shes reading one fell swoop
He gets around to it later
She fills the scoop

Hes just a hit parader
Shes just a cycle ride
He likes to masquerade her
And she tells him lies

Kiss Your Freedom Goodbye
(ed king, johnny van-zant)
I dont read the paper, I dont watch the news
Lifes good in this small town, population 62
Our bank aint been held-up since 1932
Our doors are always unlocked
But not for long Im tellin you
(chorus)
cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see please tell me it aint so
Theyre all movin in surroundin me
No place left to go
My oh my you can kiss your freedom goodbye
Used to have a small town drugstore
Where old men liked to meet
That stores gone out of business
Theyre sellin drugs out in the streets
The new kids like to spray paint
Theyve got a lot to say
Sure do have a way with words
Taught me a few today
(chorus)
cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see small town folks like me
Are gonna have to change the way we do things cause eventually
My oh my you can kiss your freedom goodbye
Kiss it goodbye

Thats Just That
Thats just that
Hes not talkin and shes not speakin
And theyre not budgin and thats just that
Hes just fumin and shes just steamin
And theyre not listening to the fact
That hearts are cryin and love is dyin
And neither wants to understand
Cause hes not talkin and shes not speakin
And theyre not budgin
(1st chorus)
But they used to stroll in the rain
Then build a fire and pull the shades
They kissed their way all through the dark
Shes whisper all her deepest dreams
Hed tell her shes his everything
Shed lay her head down on his heart
They were so in love
Yeah they were so in love
Hes not talkin and shes not speakin
And theyre not budgin and thats just that
Hope is crumblin and walls are tumblin
Its all just jumpin right off the tracks
And doors are slammin and heels are stompin
And theyre both walkin their separate ways
And hes not talkin and shes not speakin
And theyre not budgin
(2nd chorus)
But they used to jump in his car
Theyre side by side without a care
Drive till the scenery was right
Lay on a blanket on the ground
And watch the clouds blow around
Just holdin each other tight
They were so in love
Yeah they were so in love
They were so in love
Yeah they were so in love
If hed start talkin and shed start speakin
And theyd start tryin theyd start to see
Thats its worth keepin and theyre worth savin
And theyre not far from what they need
To start forgivin and start relivin
All the love they used to have
So he starts budgin and she starts biddin
And he stops steepin and she starts givin
And they start cryin, and they start hopin, and they start talkin.
Then, they take a stroll in the rain.
And build a fire, pull the shades.
Kiss their way all through the dark.
She whispers all her deepest dreams.
He tells her shes his everything.
She lays her head down on his heart.
Theyre so in love.
Yeah, they are so in love.
And thats just that...

Im moving on, yes Im grooving on
Hey, well Im finally free

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Say you dont know me or recognize my face
Say you dont care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night
Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, dont you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Chorus:
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Someone always playing corporation games
Who cares theyre always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible write us off the page
Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, dont you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Its just another sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh then we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball in two rock guitars
Dont tell us you need us, cos were the ship of fools
Looking for america, coming through your schools
(Im looking out over that golden gate bridge
Out on another gorgeous sunny saturday, not seein that bumper to bumper traffic)
Dont you remember (member)(member)
(whats your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city
The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps)

Nobody dies from a broken heart
Give it time, and your dreams will start again
I know love can tear you apart

Before you find your heartaches
Slipping away
I know you mean well
And theyre just trying to ease my mind
But it doesnt help to hear them say

Walk Out In The Rain
By bob dylan and helena springs
Walk out if it doesnt feel right,
I can tell youre only lying.
If youve got something better tonight
Then dont mess up my mind with your crying.
Just walk out in the rain,
Walk out with your dreams,
Walk out of my life if you dont feel right.
And catch the next train;
Oh, darling, walk out in the rain.
I have come from so far away
Just to put a ring on your finger.
If youve said all that youve got to say
Then please dont feel the need to linger.

My poor feet have walked till theyre sore.
If you dont want my love, its a pity.
I guess I cant see you no more.

And everybody cums and cums again
If your name is on the guest list
No one can take you higher
Everybody says Ive got
Great balls of fire

And some for fancy dress

Oh, Brother
Im not much for making little wishes
But Id like a little wish to come true for you
Im not talking about loaves and fishes
But I wish that there was something I could do for you
Heres a little bit of cheap advice
To be taken in an hour of need
Dont assume that the life you left
Is the life you have to lead
(chorus)
When you come home what you gonna do
Oh brother, oh brother
Dont you try to deny
What you know to be true
The same mess of misery that you done been through
Standing in line
And its waiting for you
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Id like to know whos knocking on door
Id like to know what they come here for
Youd like to say no
But the words wont come
Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue
You forget to remember, to never die young
One kiss leads to another
Brother when you come back home
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all of your friends

And that moon will be
Shining in the trees
All night long
Something bound to happen for sure
Soon youll be
Stopping by talking to a friend again
Swear you aint never tasted nothing so pure

When you come home, your friends are dropping by
When you come home, the moon is gonna shine
When you come home, I tell you no lie
When you come home, theyre gonna offer you a line
Standing in line, all of your friends
Standing in line, party never ends now
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
Standing in line, all your so called friends
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now
Standing in line, when you come home
Standing in line, what youre gonna do now
