Heaven Tonight

Cheap Trick Heaven Tonight Lyrics
1.Surrender

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Mother told me, yes she told me of happy girls like you
She also told me 'Stay away, you'll never know what you'll
catch'
Just the other day I heard of soilders falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round

Mommy's alright daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender
But don't give yourself away

Father says your mother is right, She's really up on things
Before we married mommy served in the wacks and the phillipeans
Now I had heard the wacks recruited old maids for the war
But mommie isn't one of the those, I've known her all these
years

Mommy''s alright daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender
But don't give yourself away

What ever happed to all the seasons, losers of the year
Every time I got to think then they disappear
When I woke up mom and dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock 'n roll And got my Kiss records out.

Mommy''s alright daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender
But don't give yourself away


2.On Top Of The World

You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't
Get any higher-You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
It wasn't easy- it was hard as hell
You didn't get luck in a wishin' well
Never worked so hard- had so much pain
Wouldn't change for anything
Learned love from a movie screen
He was tough, she was wild at fifteen
Quit school and had no dreams
Wasn't going very far
Then he got religion and she got a god
It's on her back and it's in his job
And it costs lots of money, honey- oh, no
Breakdown nearly every day
Shoulda known- couldn't get away
Got lucky with the girl next door
She was lonely and didn't care
She was young, she was dark, she was fair
Wrapped herself around you with her stare
You'd explode if she would touch you there
Touch you there- touch you there
Tonight, tonight-tonight-tonight
You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't
Get any higher
You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world
tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world
tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world
tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world
tonight

5.Auf Wiedersehen

Au revoir, auf wiedersehen
You won't see another morning
You won't see another evening
Good night
Buenos noches o senor
Senorita see ya later
Buenos noches bye-bye
There are many here among us
You feel that life is a joke
And for you we sing this final song
For you there is no hope
Sayonara oh suicide hari kari
Kamikaze you won't
See another evening
Goodbye
Bye-bye so long, farewell
See you later....Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide


6.Takin' Me Back

You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
It's so easy to tell
You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
A long, long, long time ago
A long, long, long, time ago
You, you let me down-you didn't think of me
I-I won't forget what you did to me-no
You were nice not to say it
Now my heart it's breakin'
You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
A long, long, long time ago
A long, long, long, time ago
You, you thought that you- could make a fool of me
Don't don't be so sure that the fool was me- no
I held up I could take it
Now my heart it's breakin'
You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
A long, long, long time ago
A long, long, long, time ago
A long time ago-a long time ago
A long time ago- you were breakin'
My heart- I never found all the parts
A long time ago-a long time ago
A long time ago-oh-oh-oh
You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
It's so easy to tell
You're takin' me back
It's written on my face
You're takin' me back
It's so easy to tell- 'cause you're
(Modulate)
Takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
It's written on my face
You're takin' me back
I remember it well
You're takin' me back
A long,long,long time ago
A long,long,long time ago
A long,long,long time ago
A long,long,long time ago- O
You're takin' me back


7.On The Radio

On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
Hey, Mister on the radio
Please play my favorite song
The one where she didn't go away
Hey, Mister on the radio
You're really my best friend
Please play my favorite song for me
Hey. Mister on the radio
You're with me every day
And late at night I turn you on
On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
All of the rock and roll DJ's
Got their fingers on the world
'Cause they play the songs
That make you and me feel so good
Turn up your radios
And hear the music
On the radio
This song is playin'
When the radio's on
And you and me get crazy
Radio DJ monologue:
one minute the back side of midnight it's me Captain Gonzo ready
to roll hot wax anything you want to hear
all night its a balmy 73 degrees in Fog City, 71 in the Valley
80 in Santa Cruz (?), but remember if you snooze you lose
I'm gonna hang with you, i'll crank it on...so let me know what
you want to hear phone lines are open now
you say it you KNOW i'm gonna play it and be ready to win when i
tell you to call in and whatever you do
remember the phrase that pays puts your brain on vacation and
let your toes take over keep your pedal to the metal
I'll be back in sixty seconds, in the meantime go with it, go
for it, go nuts, go completely wild.....


8.Heaven Tonight

Down the line-don't go over
There's a limit-you wnet over
So much time-time runs out
Time ran out- make it down
Would you like to go to heaven tonight?
Would you like to go to heaven tonight?
Oh oh oh oh
Downed the line-couldn't get much
Couldn't get much- higher if you tried
And tried and tried- you're as guilty
It's the crime- oh, oo, it's a crime
You can never come down, you can never come down
You can never come down, you can never come down
Down inside-you're getting nervous
You've never been this high before- oh no


9.Stiff Competition

Stiff competition
If I go up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
And when I'm down- you take me higher
There's stiff competition all over the world
I screw you-you screw me-they screw us
Here we go again
Oh- but we have so much fun, so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together-now
I looked hard in your eyes
It was love at first sight
It took me minutes-you're still waiting
Waiting for your turn, you turn
It won't be long
Stiff competition
I work hard-every day of my life
Stiff competition
Get it up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
All over the world
The more I get- the more I like it
The bigger they are- the harder they fall
Again
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
