Company Man
It seems youve been living on your own
Lonely and free
Looking to make yourself known
Same as me
Well I see you in the public eyes
I see youre looking fine
The boy would be a businessman
And he signs the bottom line
(chorus)
Singing company man, do what you can with my name
Rocknroll, man here I am
Im stacking my claim to fame
Hes got the smiling face of a friend
Still youre not quite certain you know him
The smile turns into a grin
What do you owe him
You know you owe him
So if theres something you do well
Something youre proud of
Better to save some for yourself
If thats allowed
The crowd will never know you
Youll hardly know yourself
Theyll turn you round and blow you up
til you think youre someone else
- chorus -
He can turn your time to gold
You better make as much as you can my friend
cause his money will turn you old
And they need a young man
The job takes a young man

Turn Around
(malvina reynolds/allan greene/harry belafonte)
Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and youre two
Turn around and youre four
Turn around and youre a young girl
Going out of the door
Turn around
Turn around
Turn around and youre a young girl
Going out of the door
Where are you going my little one, little one
Little dirndls and petticoats, where are you know
Turn around and youre tiny
Turn around and youre grown
Turn around and youre a young wife
With babes of your own
Turn around

With babes of your own

A Friend
Some say that friendships should be a lifetime thing,
The time that turns the season builds trust and gives us strength
A friends a friend forever, until the end of time
Through the good and the bad, a friend will be by your side
CHORUS
If youre looking for a friend
Youve found a friend in me
Not just for tomorrow
But throughout eternity
If youre looking for a friend
You can always count on me
Not just for the moment
But for all eternity
A friend is one who listens, always there for you
A yes when theres a no, a dont when they say do
Someone wholl forgive you, and never turn away
Arms of love that wont let go when you are afraid
CHORUS
If the sun doesnt ride tomorrow
And the word never turns again
My heart will never feel sorrow
For I know that always the Lord is there
If youre looking for a friend
Youve found a friend in me
I will be your friend
Till eternity

Sick As A Dog
Please, I just got to talk to you
Please, well keep your head out of the loo
Please, were a long, long way from home
Please, youd turn a young mans face to stone

Sick as a dog, whats your story
Sick as a dog, a cat got your tounge
Sick as a dog, youll be sorry
Sick as a dog, cause youre really aint that young
Please, you were much to my surprise
Please, youre a lady in disguise
Please, youre the only friend I got
Please, youre the last to see me rot

Please, she was the last thing on my mind
Please, dont be late to take it light
Please, youre gonna bay into the night

Somebody Loves You
Woke up with a bang
And a bug on your face
It crawled in your mouth
And gave you a taste of
The good life you left behind
But I think youre gonna be fine
Somebody loves you
And youre gonna make it through
This nagging malaise
Is more than a phase
It feels like a job
But no boss ever pays you to lay there
And think how youll die
While the tears start to well in your eyes
Somebody loves you
And youre gonna make it through
One more Saturday
All alone through the night
Youve got to be sure
When you turn out that light
That its going to turn on again
Youve got to be your good friend
Somebody loves you
And youre gonna make it through

Big Time
(ian hunter)
One more town on the merry-go-round
One more room with no view
One more punk eatin nothing but junk
Trin to make a phone call to you
Well maybe Ill never, get myself together
But somethings in the back of my mid
It only takes one call-you can laugh at em all
Youre never too small to hit the big time
One more slob feeling sick as a dog
After one more night on the booze
One more dive more dead that alive
Tryin to get my message through
Now, maybe Ill never get my self together
Maybe its the end of the line
But Im having a ball-bouncin off the walls
Youre never too small to hit the big time
Youre never too small, youre never too small
Youre never to small to hit the big time
They can make you crawl, they can make you fall
But youre never to small to hit the big time
Youre never too small, youre never to small
Youre never too small to hit the big time
If youre fat, if youre bald it dont matter at all
cos youre never to small-i said youre never to small
To hit the big time (yes indeed)
(the big time(- limousines)
(the big time)-you can have it all
(the big time)- I say youre never too small
One more crowd shoutin-turn it up loud
One more rose at my feet
One more ring from that cute little thing
One more reason to cheat
Well, maybe Ill never get myself together
Maybe its the end of the line...

Playboy To A Man
You had your own way one too many times and now
Youre going to find out what its like
Just what its like, now youre a mess
You wanted something you could never possess
You went your own way one too many nights
You treated her like some small oversight
What in the world makes her think that she can
Turn you from a playboy into a man
Chorus
Shes going to make you suffer tonight
To turn you from a playboy into a man
And when youre worthy of her then she might
Turn you from a playboy into a man
You thought you were the answer to her prayers
The perfect gift that every girl prefers
But thats the trouble cos every girl still thinks youre hers
So there you are with your gold chains jangling
Your lucky charms and jewelry dangling
But when she saw you she turned and ran
To turn you from a playboy into a man
Chorus
You couldnt see that the juvenile things you do
Would drag you down and now that the jokes on you
Youre pretty cold you end as you start
When your facade isnt falling apart
So now youre standing in your underwear
Well now you know just how it feels for her
Youre halfway there you know that she can turn you from a
Playboy into a man

What Do You Need?
What do you need from me tonight?
I feel you look right through me now
I cant pretend its all right
Maybe well find a way somehow
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always feel so wrong?
[chorus]
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Fear makes you fragile darlin
Hate is so heavy when youre weak
Now were both lost in anger
When were alone well find some peace
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?
What do you need from me tonight?
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Youre wrong, youre wrong
Why do we need to turn it on?
Why does it always seem so wrong?

The Bottom Line
Rick astley
When we were out dancing the other night
You almost got me into another fight
You always want to prove youve got the touch, baby
To make all the other guys want you so much
But if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby thats
(chorus)
The bottom line
The bottom line
If you really love me like you say
Wouldnt keep on hurting me this way
You always turn away when I call your name
And baby things just stay the same
So if you ever do that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby thats

Here we go
Youve got to believe its over
Youve got to believe its true
Youve got to believe its over
And were through
Youve got to believe its over
Youve got to believe its true
Youve got to believe its over
And were through
The bottom line

The bottom line
All that you have ever done for me
Is show just how rotten life can be
But this has taught me one thing thats for sure yeah
Ill never let that girl back through my door
And if she ever does that to me
Just one more time
I swear to you that I will blow
And baby thats
(repeat chorus two times)
Id like to thank you all for coming this evening
All you people all you people out there
Youre all beautiful
I wanna take each and every one of you home with me tonight

Grey Matter
They say youre stupid
That youre too young to vote
They say youll swallow anything
That they shove down your throat
They say you cant think
That you havent got a brain
That youre just there to listen
That youre just being trained
Chorus
Theres something inside your head
Theres something inside your head
Theres something inside your head
Theres something inside your head
They say you lost the ability to even think
That your tiny little brain
Slipped down the kitchen sink
They say that youll buy anything
That they turn your way
That youll listen to everything
That they decide to play

To be told what to do--isnt that true
I think youre better--better--better off
Stone cold dead--without your head

That youre too young to vote
They say youll swallow anything
That they shove down your throat
If they say lie down, youll do it
If they say--buy it now--youll do it
If they say--turn around--youll do it
If they say--hit the ground--youll do it
If they say--bite the big weenie--youll do it
If they say--wasnt that good--youll do it
If they say--bend over baby--youll do it
If they say--take it and like it--youll do it

Lovable
(chorus)
Its going round the town
Its going round the town
Its going round the town
Youre so lovable
My baby gave me notice to quit
I just cant get used to it
She broke my little heart in two
Now somebody else is being the same old you
(chorus)
My baby has egyptian eyes
And a wicked look beyond compare
If you thought I was a fool for you
Then I must be a bigger fool for her
(chorus)
Hed turn the flowers of springtime into a wreath
He says hed love you eternally
I say please please cant you keep it brief
They say theyre going to bury you
Because youre so lovable
Put your money where your mouth was
Youre so lovable
Each tender mumble brings us closer to bedlam
Youre so lovable
The toast of the town and the talk of the bedroom
Youre so lovable
Youre so sweet
Youre so honest
You say 'Ill be true to you boy
But I wont promise
Then you say you love me
Then you show me
As you lie there so lifelike below me

Go
Dig for victory, go for gold
I dont wanna die before I get old
And I wonder where Im going to
Theres some way out, theres some way through
But Im lost, Im lost, Im down again
My direction is changing, which way,
Which way can I go...
Get up and go
You start me up, you slow me down
No one can deny you get around
When youre hot, youre cold, youre in between
Asking myself what does it mean?
And I walk that tightrope, you should know
Im losing my balance, maybe,
Maybe I should go...
Get up and go
Face to face in sympathy
But now you turn your back on me
Turn a card and win, but you may lose
Fate only has that right to choose
If youre right, leave me here, Ill die alone
Youve got the time, youve just got time
You got the time just go...
Get up and go
Go
Just go...

Cry, Cry, Cry
Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
They say you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted my time when I would try, try, try
cause when the lights have lost their glow, youll cry, cry, cry
Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone
And youll wake up some cold day and find youre alone
Youll come to me but Im gonna tell you bye, bye, bye
When I turn around and walk away, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll cry alone
When everyones forgotten and youre on your own
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry
I lie awake at night and wait till you come in
You stay a little while and then youre gone again
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie
For every lie you tell, youre gonna cry, cry, cry
When your fickle little love gets old, no one will care for you
Youll come back to me for a little love thats true
Ill tell you no and youre gonna ask me why, why, why
When I remind you of all of this, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll want me there
Itll hurt when you think of the fool youve been
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry

Rock n Roll Suicide
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Ohhh how how how, youre a rock n roll suicide
Youre too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe but you dont eat when youve lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, youre a rock n roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Dont let the sun blast your shadow
Dont let the milk float ride your mind
Youre so natural - religiously unkind
Oh no love! youre not alone
Youre watching yourself but youre too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
Make you care
Oh no love! youre not alone
No matter what or who youve been
No matter when or where youve seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
Ive had my share, Ill help you with the pain
Youre not alone
Just turn on with me and youre not alone
Lets turn on with me and youre not alone (wonderful)
Lets turn on and be not alone (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Oh gimme your hands.

From the very first time I met you, girl, you captured me
Youre my pop-si-cle!
All I know is that you make me feel so fancyfree.
Gonna love you for a lifetime
And I know youre gonna love me too
You make me feel, feel so real
And it feels so good, through and through
Sweeter than candy
Better than cake
And everytime we kiss
It feels oh so great
Girl, cant you see?
Youre the one, youre the one for me!

When I call you up on my favorite party line
You sound so sweet, girl. youre blowing my mind
Our love is much better than any other I know
And it keeps on growing, more and more

Hey, hey, little girl with your pretty dress on
Ive been wanting you to want me for my whole life long
You knock me off my feet, girl, youre a super treat
When I see you in the street you make my heart skip a beat
Youre the one who makes me feel alright
When I look into your eyes, you know youre really out of sight
Im for you and youre for me
We could stay together so easily
Pop pop pop pop pop popsicle!

Youre the one, youre the one for me!

Nowhere Bound
You save up your money, buy you some shoes
The highways calling and shes right on cue
Just when you thought you had it beat
Youre leaving town on a one-way street
Chorus
Its a hard, hard lesson
But youre gonna have to learn it
Its a long cold swim up against the current
And somewhere down the line
Youre gonna have to turn it around
cause boy right now youre nowhere bound
Her words still echo thru your mind
But fade away as you cross the county line
Running from trouble or from the truth
It doesnt matter either way you lose
Chorus
Well you walk ten miles just to make new tracks
But you turn around and find that its twenty miles back
And its never gonna change it you keep leaving
Your hearts gonna break, but never break even
Where to now, do you know?
One things for certain
Gonna reap just what you sow
And all you planted was heartache and pain
Dont look now but it looks like rain.

Do It Again
In the mornin you go gunnin
For the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in

And the mourners are all singin
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isnt hangin
And they put you on the street

You go back jack do it again
Wheel turnin round and round
You go back jack do it again
When you know shes no high climber
Then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer
And youre sure youre near the end
Then you love a little wild one
And she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know shes smilin
Youll be on your knees tomorrow

Now you swear and kick and beg us
That youre not a gamblin man

So you hide them when youre able
In the land of milk and honey
You must put them on the table

Turn It Up
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It dont ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Well youve lost all the things
That sharing could bring
Thought you were doing right
But violence and flames
And torches and chains
Are fuelling
These new northern lights
Like prisoners working
On infertile land
Took eight years
To find out the score
If youre sick then youre lonely
Out of work then youre hungry
The sentence is four years more
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It dont ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up
Right up, right up
Who says poverty and race
Can be kept in their place
By keeping it
All underground
And ruling the country
Are unfaithful husbands
Who spank little boys
Gagged and bound
Theres got to be a better way
For you and for me
To turn this hypocrisy round
The growth of a nation
Cannot be achieved
By keeping
The downtrodden down
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It dont ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up
Right up, right up

Before you reach a pot of gold

Everybody got to cry
Take the good with the bad
Take the lows and the high
Well you work and you worry
Spend you life paying dues

Than it is for a man
Everybody goes dancing
Everybody pays the band
Everybody got to take
Everybody got to give
Everybody got to live
