(Steve Walsh)
I still believe in what you say
I still believe that it could work ok
But love is just another game you play
You'll never change your mind
You exist so free and clear
Let no one touch you let no one near
I think you're just someone afraid of fear
Or what you just might find
I can see them all lining up outside your front door
Filthy minds and terrible habits are interesting
(Chorus)
Sure
O but look at me now if I've changed tell me how
O I'd do anything for you
I'm sick of fighting but I need you so
You tell me lies but I can't let go
I want to take you out but you say no
Think you're ashamed of me
You give me headaches o you got your gall
If it weren't for me you wouldn't have nuttin' at all
I fell for you 'caus you were nice and tall
I liked what I could see
I could be the keeper of fortunes if I was inclined
Let me know that you're standing beside me I'll give them a sign
O but
Angels have fallen, fallen from heaven, where did they go
No one could save them no one forgave them their chance to know
When I hear them below I think how it is to be weary
Children are restless they know what can happen when men are vain
Talking in riddles won't keep them from knowing you've gone insane
They know a few will try to gain by trying to live like their teachers
(Chorus)
Save me for now, save me forever
Hold me so close, I can't bear to go
There's darkness around me or is it within me
You're living forever, I'm dying so slow
Inside a window that leads to your conscience you'll see, you'll hear
People are talking maybe you know them, they know you're near
Masking themselves from fear and asking themselves who their friends are
(Chorus)
Well you say that you've been here in this life and time
You say it's no good here, but you say that so fine
You reach for your winnings, an angelic excuse
Round them you act humble, still you never refuse
Andi won't dance
Andi won't sing
Andi won't play
She sits in her room, hiding away, hiding away
She hasn't a friend
They think she's a boy, they leave her alone
But what they don't know
Andi has dreams, all of her own
Yea, she wants to be a lady
Can anyone see?
That's she's trapped inside a little boy's body
She's waiting
For the dream of her life
To be a lady
That's all she wants to be
(Chorus)
Andi you're not just anyone
Don't be ashamed
Open the door, don't hide away
Your dreams will awaken
Andi you're not just anyone
Don't take the blame
Though you're scared and all alone
You'll be there someday
Oh Andi, you're old enough to know
Don't ask me why
The leaves they fall down from the trees
But in the spring, they come again
Yes, they come again
Oh Andi, don't be afraid
Oh Andi
Andi can you hear me?
Will you come out on your own?
All the world's forgiving the change is all around
And people everywhere have seen the light in what they've found
It's a happy place in the human race
When all our lives are lived forgiving
All the world's for living when love is what you find
Despair and loneliness you've got to leave them far behind
Tell the clouds to go let the feeling show
It's great when life is full of living
Everyone's aware they know to change the world we've got to care
And people all should know should have happened long ago
Or could it be that I just now found out
Life is meant to share and it means the same thing everywhere
Living everyday, helping people on their way
Cause sometimes life gives everyone some doubts
Can I have time? Is it right what I feel?
At times I doubt what I normally know is real
But right now I don't know what to do
And it's all because of you
I could tell you if I knew that you'd believe
As slight and elusive as life sometimes is
Right or wrong as we both know we all can be
I could never have denied that I need you by my side
'Cause without you life don't seem that much to me
I can see an old man cry, it's his time to die
And life no longer gives him any breaks
He hasn't got a home, no one to call his own
Still he tells no one that it is more than he can take
When the time is so unkind, an empty future plays in your mind
When the darkness cries out to you, can you escape it?
What can you do?
All the world's forgetting the hate that filled our hearts
The times of selfish reasoning that keeps all apart
This world was meant to share, let them know you care
When I was very young so many songs were sung
So much wasted time on an uphill climb
But you where always there, a feeling in the air
There was nothing to fear you were so near
Now you are here once again
As I stand in your presence
I can feel the quiet patience of your gaze
Like an old superstition
You are haunting all my dreams and waking days
(Chorus)
All my life I knew you were waiting, revelation anticipating
All is well, the search is over, let the truth be known
Let it be shown (give me a glimpse of home)
There's no resisting you among the chosen few
It's hard to be sure, it's hard to endure
And when I hear your voice
I know I have the choice
To pursue an ideal, something so real
Now I've got nothing to lose
As I see your reflection
All the answers I desire become so clear
Like a page that is turning
I can look into the future without fear
You're in my rock and roll, you're in my very soul
Though it's heavy to bear, it's a feeling so rare
Never took a punch
In the ribcage sonny?
Never met a soul
Who had no shrine
Keep this all in your mind
And get inside my window
What do we become
Trying to kill each other?
You're faking it son
Gonna get you tonight
I suck another breath
To the hearts of the Revolution
'Cos it still ain't right
Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
[I bet you can't see it]
Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
[I bet you can't see it]
Can't see the signs
Of a real change a commin'
Take another sip
From this hobo's wine
Get yourself a million miles
From this concrete jungle
This is a time
Full of fear full of anger
A hero's exchange for a telephone line
Whatever happened to the
Youth of this generation?
'Cos it still ain't right
Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
[I bet you can't see it]
Where did all the love go?
Now I don't know why
Oh why
The rivers on the pavement
Are flowing now with blood
The children of the future
Are drowning in the flood
Where did all the love go?
Now I don't know why
I don't know why
[Instrumental]
In this social chaos
There's violence in the air
Gotta keep your wits about you
Be careful not to stare
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
[I bet you ca

Face check, I walk this beach
I'm frying in the heat
In the cauldron stir me
Chomp down my diamond teeth I ain't got
The simple things in life have been lost
You have got to witness
This is your last retreat, my last repeat
All my friends are as sharp as razors
Cut you down if you touch the faders
High class girls hung in elevators
Now we have got the floor
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
You can't miss me, I'm still alive
Snake skin shoes, I'm pleading homicide
Come on and feel this, I'm still alive
Joker meet you on the other side
Banshie, I hear you call
We need to raise the dead
We need to raise the people
Cut throat, this blood runs thick
It is true the simple things in life have been lost
You have got to witness
We are the last beatniks, the lost heretics
All my friends are as sharp as razors
Cut you down if you touch the faders
Listen up all you masqueraders
Now we have got the floor
Now we have got the floor
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
You can't miss me, I'm still alive
Snake skin shoes, I'm pleading homicide
Come on and feel this, I'm still alive
Joker meet you on the other side
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Get loose, get loose
Kill me if you dare
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself right on this train
I'm the Underdog
Live my life on a lullaby
Keep myself riding on this train
Keep myself riding on this train
Love in technicolour, sprayed out on walls
Well I've been pounding at the pavement
'Til there's nothing at all
I got my cloak and dagger
In a bar room brawl
See the local loves a fighter
Loves a winner to fall
Feels like I'm lost in a moment
I'm always losing to win
Can't get away from the moment
Seems like it's time to begin
Kill me if you dare
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself right on this train
I'm the Underdog
Live my life on a lullaby
Keep myself riding on this train
Keep myself riding on this train
It don't matter
I won't do what you say
You've got the money and the power
I won't go your way
And I can't take for the people
They don't matter at all
And I'll be waiting in the shadows
'Til the day that you fall
Feels like I'm lost in a moment
And I'm always losing to win
Can't get away from the moment
Seems like it's time to begin
Kill me if you dare,
Hold my head up everywhere
Keep myself right on this train
I'm the Underdog,
Live my life on a lullaby
Keep myself riding on this train
Tell me if you're down
Throw your weapons to the ground
Keep myself riding on this train
I sit and wait for you cause' this was never over
I hear the talk in codes
If you want me then come get me
You want me so come get me
I'm standing with my allies
Sellin' arms to strangers
Watch them shoot ya down
There aint nothin' I will say to you
But I know your eyes are fearin'
I watch as you creep by
I'll find my way, wont let go
I'll find my way, wont let go
I'm standing with my allies
Sellin' guns to strangers
Still don't let me sin
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
What is this that stands before me
Shaking in a mirror
He has come my evil twin
Got me jumping out my skin
Forgive me, where's my manners?
Please allow my introduction
'Cause I am gonna get you hit
I am gonna get you lit
Reach out and touch me
'Cause I got to
I got to know
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
Work it like a treat
Everybody!
Work it like a treat
Everybody!
Work it like a treat
Everybody!
I work it
I'm stood here naked with a junkie sinking margaritas
I swear, I don't remember anything
where were we last i think we
Separated deep in Leicester
How could you ditch me in the state I'm in?
And if you want to witness what goes on behind the curtain
He is just as cracked as you
So be careful if you do
Reach out and touch me
'Cause I got to
I got to go
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a treat
I said now
Everybody knows I work it
Work it like a tr
