1.Venus
Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
She's got it？Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man a man
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no-one else had
Wa!
She's got it？Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
She's got it？Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
2.I Heard A Rumour
Who needs friends who never show
I'll tell you what you want to know
I could have saved a broken heart
If I'd found out long ago
(bridge 1)
I'm just thinking about
Those lonely nights
When I waited for your call
'Til I found out
All my friends were right
I didn't know you at all
(chorus)
I heard a rumour
(Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
They say you got a broken heart
I heard it
I heard a rumour
(Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour)
Yes I did, boy ooh, ooh, ooh
Now it seems they're telling me
You've changed your wicked ways
But should I give you a second chance
Baby, I'm too afraid
(bridge 2)
So you realise what hurt you made
And the love you threw away
How can I forgive or soon forget
It's never gonna be the same
(chorus x 2)
(bridge 1)

3.Love In The First Degree
Last night, I was dreaming
I was locked in a prison cell
When I woke up, I was screaming
Calling out your name
(bridge 1)
And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me
They wouldn't go for my story
They wouldn't hear my plea
(chorus)
Only you can set me free
'Cos I'm guilty (guilty)
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty, of love in the first degree
Someday, I believe it
You will come to my rescue
Unchain my heart you're keeping
And let me start anew
(bridge 2)
The hours pass so slowly
Since they've thrown away the key
Can't you see that I'm lonely
Won't you help me please
(chorus)
Guilty, of love in the first degree
Guilty, of love
Guilty, of love in
Guilty, of love
Guilty, of love in
Guilty, of love in the first degree
(bridge 1)
(chorus ad lib)
4.I Can't Help It
Sugar's sweet but your kisses can't be beat
Whatever you got, it's good enough for me
Boys say (they say) I'm good enough to eat (manger)
Whatever you want you got 'cos you knock me off my feet
(bridge 1)
I'm hungry for your sweet love
I need you here tonight
I'm crazy, I'm burning up
(chorus)
I can't help it
I'm captivated by your honey
I can't help it
I'm captivated by your honey
You've tasted honey, you've had the rest
Well here I am, come on and try the best
No chance (no chance) won't let you get away (no way)
Whatever you need from me gonna let you get your way

(chorus ad lib)
5.I WANT YOU BACK
Don't take away
No don't take away, no
(x 2)
The room has suddenly grown cold
and outside in the street it's raining
You packed your bags and sald good-bye
you took my heart without explaining.
How could you go
how could you go
we had a love most people never know.
Stop
before yov break my heart.
I want you back
don't care what I have to do
I want you back
I want you back
gotta get it through to you
I want you back.
If I can make you see only you can fill the need in me
If you walk away you'll regret it someday
please
stay!
This room is full of memories
and shadows of the last remind me
Of all the love I gave in vain
and all the hurt I fee inside me.
I want you back
I want you back
we had a love most people never know.
Stop
before you break my heart.
I want you back
don't care what I have to do
I want you back
. . .

I want you back

I want you back
don't care what I have to do
I want you back

6.Love Truth And Honesty
Never trust your own emotions
They'll always let you down
And the one that's closest to you
May not always be around
(bridge 1)
I never questioned
The promises you made
Every time I gave my heart
I was betrayed
(chorus 1)
What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me
Maybe everyone's a stranger
I watch them come and go
But I think everyone's in danger
If they let their feelings show
(bridge 2)
There's a lesson
And a price you have to pay
If you give your heart
Dont let it be betrayed
(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)
What a fool
Every time I find I'm deceived
Where is the love, truth and honesty
If you see it
Won't you bring it on home to me
(bridge 2)
(chorus 1 ＆ 2 ad lib)
7.Nathan Jones
You packed your bags as I recall
And you walked slowly down the hall
You said you had to get away to ease your mind
And all you needed was just a little of time
(bridge)
Winter's passed, spring and fall
You never wrote me, you never called
(chorus)
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
If a woman could die of tears
Nathan Jones, well, I wouldn't be here
The key that you're holding won't fit my door
And there's no room in my heart for you no more
(bridge)
(chorus x 2)
(bridge)
(chorus ad lib)

9.Really Saying Something
Hey yeah yeah
I was walking down the street
(Do-wah do-wah)
When this boy started following me

He moved me in every way
With his collar unbuttononed
On my side he was struttin'
(chorus)
He was really saying something

And my feelings started to show
My heart started thumpin'
Blood pressure jumpin'

He walked me to my door
(Do-wah do-wah)

Although he was bold
My heart he stole

Shoop shoop aah (x 4)
He used to be a shy boy
Until I made him my boy

Just sitting in the back seat

I'm gonna give him all my love
Each and every night
One thing I'm always dreaming of
I wanna squeeze and hold him tight

Shoop shoop aah
And don't it make you feel good
Shoop shoop aah
Don't it make you feel good

11.Robert De Niro's Waiting
Hopes dashed to the floor
Like shattered teenage dreams
Boys living next door
Are never what they seem
(bridge 1)
A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on the wall
(chorus)
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
(Talking Italian)

I've got a man of steel
Don't come any closer
I don't wanna feel

I never want this to happen to me
Don't try to change me you're wasting your time
Now I've got something much better in mind

(bridge 1)
(chorus ad lib)
12.Cruel Summer
Hot summer streets
And the pavements are burning
I sit around
Too hot to handle, baby
Trying to smile
But the air is so heavy and dry
How could you leave me waiting
Strange voices are saying
What did they say
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort
This heat has got right out of hand
(chorus x 2)
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you've gone
The city is crowded
My friends are away
And I'm on my own
Too hot to handle, baby
It's too hot to handle
So I got to get up and go
(chorus)
You're not the only one
(chorus)
(bridge x 2)
In the city in the summertime
All I ever wanted was your love
Come on and make it shine
Can you open the heavens up above
(chorus)
You're not the only one
(chorus)
(bridge x 2)
13.It Ain't What You Do
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
And that's what gets results
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
And that's what gets results
You can try hard don't mean a thing
Take it easy and then your jive will swing
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results
I thought I was smart but I soon found out
I didn't know what life was all about
But then I learnt I must confess
That life is like a game of chess
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results
You can try hard don't mean a thing
Take it easy and then your jive will swing
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
And that's what gets results
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
And that's what gets results
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results

Are falling baby from your eyes

15.Rough Justice
The young don't grow up
Well not in this life
Big mouths and money
Win every time
Boy beats girl
While the sneaky and snide
Take all your money
And take your pride
(chorus)
Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice
King for a day
But their kingdom grows cold
They'll never grow up
But they're bound to grow old
I remember the pain
And humiliation
And I'll show them rough justice
The way that they did
(chorus x 2)
Boy beats girl
While the sneaky and snide
Take all your money
And take your pride
(chorus x 2)
Don't call that justice...
16.A Trick of the Night
When the day is over
And the work is done
Well it's a different story
As the darkness comes around
I tried to let you know
You're going the wrong way
And the streets you thought
Would all be paved with gold
But when the wind cuts through
You'd even try to sell your soul
Everywhere you go
It's the long way
Now you're no longer
Just the boy next door
When they were falling in love
With that clean cut smile
Change of style
Just for a little while
(chorus)
Whatcha doing, hey whatcha doing
Walking through danger
Can't see the wrong or the right
Whatcha doing, tell me whatcha doing
Can't be a stranger
Must be a trick of the night
Well its a laugh a minute
And you can't decide
Between the burning question
And the fortune in his eyes
You never let it show
Or take it the wrong way
Sometimes you wonder
What you came here for
Oh, they could tear you apart
With those bare faced lies
Can't disguise
All the hurt you're feeling inside
(chorus x 2)
Of the night, of the night
Must be a trick of the night
When the day is over
And the work is done
Well it's a different story
As the darkness comes around
And the streets you thought
Would all be paved with gold
But when the wind cuts through
You'd even try to sell your soul
