Getting crazy
on the waltzers but it's the life that i choose
Sing about the sixblade sing
about the switchback and a torture tattoo
And I been riding on a ghost
train where the cars they scream and slam
And I don'r know where I'll be
tonight but I'd always tell you where I am
In a
screaming ring of faces I seen her standing in the light
She had a ticket for the races
just like me she was a victim of the night
I put my hand upon the lever
said let it rock and let it roll
I had the one arm bandit fever
there was an arrow through my heart and soul
And the big
wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
And I'm just high on the world
Come on and take a low ride
with me girl
On the tunnel of love
It's just the
danger when you're riding at your own risk
She said you are the perfect
stranger she said baby let's keep it like this
It's just a cakewalk twisting
baby step right up and say
Hey mister give me two give me
two cos any two can play
And the big
wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
And I'm just high on the world
Come on and take a low ride
with me girl
On the tunnel of love
Well it's
been money for muscle another whirlgig
Money for muscle another girl I
dig
Another hustle just to make it
big
And rockaway rockaway
And girl it
looks so pretty to me just like it always did
Like the spanish city to me
when we were kids
Oh girl it looks so pretty to
me just like it always did
Like the spanish city to me
when we were kids
She took off
a silver locket she said remember me by this
She put her hand in my pocket I
got a keepsake and a kiss
And in the roar of dust and
diesel I stood and watched her walk away
I could have cought up with her
easy enough but something must have made me stay
And the big
wheel keep on turning neon burning up above
And I'm just high on the world
Come on and take a low ride
with me girl
On the tunnel of love
And now I'm
searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
Searching everywhere from
steeplechase to palisades
In any shooting gallery where
promises ar made
To rockaway rockaway from
Cullercoasts and Whitley bay out to rockaway
And girl it
looks so pretty to me just like it always did
Like the spanish city to me
when we were kids
Oh girl it looks so pretty to
me just like it always did
Like the spanish city to me
when we were kids
A lovestruck
Romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
Laying everybody low with a
lovesong that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight
steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me
babe how about it?
Juliet says
hey it's Romeo you nearly gimme me a heart attack
He's underneath the window
she's singing hey la my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here
singing up at people like that
Anyway what you gonna do about
it?
Juliet the
dice were loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded in
my heart
And I forget I forget the movie
song
When you gonna realise it was
just that the time was wrong Juliet?
Come up on
different streets they booth were streets of shame
Both dirty both mean yes and
the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for
you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I
was just another one of your deals?
When you can
fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty
strangers and the promises they hold
You promised med everything you
promised me thick and thin
Now you just say oh Romeo yeah
you know I used to have a scene with him
Juliet when
we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the
stars above I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know
the movie song
When you gonna realise it was
just that the time was wrong Juliet?
I can't do
the talk like they talk on tv
And I can't do a love song like
the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd
do anything for you
I can't do anything except be
in love with you
And all I do
is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and
bad company
All I do is kiss you through
the bars of a rhyme
Julie I'd do the stars with you
any time
Juliet when
we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the
stars above I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know
the movie song
When you gonna realise it was
just that the time was wrong Juliet?
A lovestruck
Romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
Laying everybody low with a
lovesong that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight
steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me
babe how about it?
I seen a girl
on a one way corridor
Stealing down a wrong way
street
For all the world like an urban
toreador
She had wheels on on her feet
Well the cars do the usual
dances
Same old cruise and the
kerbside carwl
But the rollergirl she's taking
chances
They just love to see her take
them all
No fears
alone at night she's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are
tight and the music's playing loud
Hellelujah
here she comes queen rollerball
Enchante what can I say don't
care at all
You know she used to have wait
around
She used to be the lonely one
But now that she can skate
around town
She's the only one
No fears
alone at night she's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are
tight and the music's playing loud
She gets rock
n roll a rock n roll station
And a rock n roll dream
She's making movies on location
She don't know what it means
But the music make her wanna be
the story
And the story was whatever was
the song what it was
Rollergirl don't worry
D.j. play the movies all night
long
She toutures
taxe drivers just for fun
She like to read their lips
Says toro toro taxi see ya
tomorrow my son
I swear she let a big truck
graze her hip
She got her own world in the
city
You can't intrude on her
She got her own world in the
city
Cos the city's been so rude to
her
Come slippin
and a slidin
Life's a rollerball
Slippin and a slidin
Skateaway that's all
Shala shalay hey hey skateaway
She's singing shala shaly hey
hey
Skateaway
She gets the
sun in the daytime
Perfume in the dusk
And she comes out in the night
time
With the honeysuckle musk
Because she smells just like a
rose
And she tastes just like a
peach
She got me walking where the
wildlife goes
I'd do anything to reach her
And she was
made in heaven
Heaven's in the world
Is this just expresso love
You know I'm crazy for the girl
She call me just to talk
She's my lover she's a friend
of mine
She says hey mister you wanna
take a walk
In the wild west end sometime
And I get trouble with my
breathing
She says boys don't know
anything
But I know what I want
I want everything
Well I feel
so good cos I feel so good
And I feel so good cos it feels
so right
I was made to go with my girl
Like a saxophone was made to go
with the night
And she can
raise one eyebrow
Put her hand on my hip
And I close one eye now
Seat on her hip
And I surrender to the fever
I surrender to the will of the
night
She love me so tender I got to
believe her
Love? Expresso love's alright
I don't want
no sugar in it
Thank you very much
All wired up on it all fired up
on it
Expresso touch
Hey maestro expresso
It's just another one just like
the other one
Hey maestro expresso
Is this another one just like
the other one
The sky is
crying the streets are full of tears
Rain come down wash away my
fears
And all this writing on the
wall
Oh I can read between the lines
Rain come down forgive this
dirty town
Rain come down and give this
dirty town
A drink of water a drink of
wine
If I been on
you I never chose to be
I never wanted no one else
I tried my best to be somebody
you'd be close to
Hand in hand like lovers are
supposed to
As you'd
sleep I'd think my heart would break in two
I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop
myself from waking you
But in the dark you'd speak my
name
You'd say baby what's wrong?
Oh here I am baby I'm coming
back for more
I'm like a wave that's got to
roll into the shore
Yes and if my love's in vain
how come my love is so strong
Now you and
me go parallel together and apart
And you keep your perfect
distance and it's tearing at my heart
Did you never feel the distance
You never feel the distance
You never tried to cross no
line
now it's another dirty river
and another dirty scar
And I know who's kissing you
and I don't know where you are
So far from home don't you
think of me sometime
Sky is crying
see the streets are full of tears
Rain coming down to wash away
my fears
And all this writing on the
wall
Oh I can read between the lines
Well take a
look at that
I made a castle in the sand
Saying this is where it's at
you know
Couldn't understand now
If I realised that the chances
were slim
How come I'm so suprised when
the tide rolled in
I wanna live
on solid rock
I'm gonna live on solid rock
I wanna give don't wanna be
blocked
I'm gonna live on solid rock
Well I'm sick
of potential
I'm sick fo vanity now
I'm sticking to essential
reality now
I don't know what's worse
Try to make a silk purse
Living an illusion living in
confusion
Well a house
of cards
Was never built for shock
You could blow it down in any
kind of weather
Now two solid rocks two solid
blocks
You know they're gonna stick
Yeah they're gonna stick
together
Because the
heart that you break
That's the one that tou rely on
The bed that you make
That's the one you gotta lie on
When you point you fingers cos
you plan fell through
You got three more fingers
pointing back at you
I wanna live
on solid rock
I'm gonna live on solid rock
I wanna give don't wanna be
blocked
I'm gonna live on solid rock
Les boys do
cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay
They're not afraid now
Disco bar in Germany
Les boys are glad to be
Upon parade now
Les boys got
leather straps
Les boys got SS caps
But they got no gun now
Get dressed up get a little
risque
Got to do a little s & m
these days
It's all in fun now
Les boys come
on again
For the high class whores
And the businessmen
Who drive in their Mercedes
Benz
To a disco bar in old Munchen
They get the
jokes that the d.j. makes
They get nervous and they make
mistakes
They're bad for business
Some tourist take a photograph
Les boys don't get one laugh
He says they're useless
Late at night
when they've gone away
Les boys dream of jean genet
High heels shoes and a black
beret
And the posters on the wall
that say
Les boys do cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay
