One On One

Cheap Trick One On One Lyrics
1.I Want You

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Going to write a three act play
So I can be with you
Produce, direct, and also act
But who will I cast as you
I'm gonna find her, I'm gonna find her
It won't be easy but I don't care
I'll go to London, New York or Hollywood
I'll search the world for a girl
I want you
I don't want nobody else
I want you
I should have known it all along
I want you
Oooh just tell me when and where
I want you
Why don't you just give me a call
She went and so religiously
She took a vow
Not to return until she learned
What to do and how
I'm gonna find her, I'm gonna find her
It won't be easy but I don't care
I'll go to London, New York or Hollywood
I'll search the world for a girl
Exactly like you
Uh huh, I'd rather have you, oh yeah
I want you
I don't want nobody else
I want you
I should have known it all along
I want you
Right now, I need you right now
I want you
Oh come on little girl


2.One On One

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Reputation is a fragile thing
Fame and money don't mean much to me
Oh, don't changin' to prove the point
It doesn't matter, oh no
We've had our problems and we had our fun
Did a lot of livin' on the run
Oh don't go cover up the truth
'Cause we're together, oh yeah
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
Head is spinning and you mouth is dry
Happiness you couldn't find or buy
Oh ever want something so bad
You could taste it
Made the deadline and you passed the test
Several times you seemed to find success
Put it off until tomorrow
I've hear it all before, but its
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
I need some time to think of how...
You say you want to see the world alone
Outrun temptation, there's no one to save you
It's not so easy when you're on your own
Now I've been meanin' to answer you
No excuses I just want the truth
Reputation is a fragile thing
And don't we know it, well it's
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
(Repeat and fade)


3.If You Want My Love

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Ah. ___
Ah. ___

If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
I won't hide it
I won't throw your love away, ooh
If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
I won't hide it
I won't throw your love away, ooh
Yes, I thought you were a mystery girl
A special girl in this crazy old world
You couldn't see me
When I laid my eyes on you
Lonely is only a place
You don't know what it's like
You can't fight it
It's hole in my heart, in my heart
If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
I won't hide it
I won't throw your love away, ooh
You hold the secrets of love in this world
I'm hypnotized by your every word
A special face, a special voice, a special smell in my life,
'cause
Lonely is only a place
You don't know what it's like
You can't fight it
It's hole in my heart, in my heart
If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
I won't hide it
I won't throw your love away, ooh
If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
I won't hide it
I won't throw your love away, ooh
If you want my love you've got it
When you need my love you've got it
You won't hide it
You won't throw your love away, ooh


4.Oo La La La

Written:Rick Nielsen/Robin Zander

I gave you just about
The best years of my life
...
On my views of the world
I can't explain the politics of your affairs
But there is one
Thing that I know and say each day
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Life ain't so easy
I know you've heard it all before
When you stop movin'
There's always something goin' wrong
Closed up in front of you
And closin' up in back
Don't you stop givin' up
When now you should attack, attack
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Your world was...goin on
You say you need some time to live alone
Tell me you're happy or so you say
I don't believe a single word you say
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la
Oo ooh la la la
Oh ooh la la la


5.Lookin' Out For Number One

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

I'm lookin' out for number one, yeah
I'm lookin' out for number one
Work and slave, somtimes succeed
I'm lookin' out for number one
I got hot but never got burned
Well all I know is she should have learned
Get too close you'll fall right in
You should have known, you can't do that now
I've seen what's goin' on
I've known it all along
I've seen what's goin' on
I'm lookin' out for number one, yeah
I'm lookin' out for number one
Work and slave, somtimes succeed
I'm lookin' out for number one
When I'm hot she says she's not
Don't get too close, she's over the top
Think by now well I would have learned
She's on top I really got burned now
I've seen what's goin' on
I've known it all along
I've seen what's goin' on
I'm lookin' out for number one, yeah
I'm lookin' out for number one
Work and slave, somtimes succeed
I'm lookin' out for number one
I'm lookin' out for number one, yeah
I'm lookin' out for number one
Work and slave, somtimes succeed
I'm lookin' out for number one
(Repeat and fade...)


6.She's Tight

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

I'm lookin' out for number one, yeah
When I'm down, I make a call
Got the number written on the wall
First it's busy, then I try again
Oh who's she talkin' to, could it be him?
I dial the number and it starts to ring
I get excited and I start to dream
I start to fantasize of memoery lane
Then she answers and she says right away
She says: 'I'm on my own
Come all alone'
So I got off the phone
She's tight, she's ahead of her time
She's tight, she's one of a kind
She's tight, she's a talented girl
She's tight, she's got her head down tight
I have something I gotta say to you
Amnesia in my train of thought
On the tip, the tip of my tongue
I had a vision when I was young
You floated in, we floated up
Through the window and down the hall
I had a smoke and went upstairs
Turned the door and opened the key
She spoke: 'I'm on my own, come all alone'
So I got off the phone
She's tight, she's ahead of her time
She's tight, she's one of a kind
She's tight, she's a talented girl
She's tight, she's got her head down tight
She's tight, she's givin' me the go
She's tight, she's givin' me the high sign
She's tight, well turn off the light
She's tight, pull down th shade
She's nice, she's tight
Turn on the camera
She's nice, she's tight
Get ready for action
She's nice, she's tight
Turn off the radio
She's nice, she's tight
Turn on the video
She's nice, she's tight
She's givin' me the go
She's nice, she's tight
She's givin' me the high sign
She's nice, she's tight
Turn off the lights
She's nice, she's tight
Pull down the shades
(fade)
She's nice, she's tight
Turn off the radio
She's nice, she's tight
Get ready for action


7.Time Is Runnin'

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true
Here comes the night
Gone are the days again
And we could just sit here and talk for hours
Didn' t have much to say
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true
Now everything seems so serious
We all had our funin the sun
We only take too much in life
Fooling ourselves in the long run
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true
Tryin' to beat the clock
It never stops tickin' the time time unwinds
Tryn' to beat the clock it
Never stops, never stops night or day
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true


8.Saturday At Midnight

Written:Rick Nielsen/Robin Zander

Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
I can't wait for a call
It's just not my style
Been alone too long
But in a little while
When night closes in
And lights are gettin' bright
Makes it all worthwhile
Makes it all worthwhile tonight
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
I work hard every day
Every day of my life
My reward is to make a better life
'Cause I live for the weekend
And what I wanna do
Is search for that someone
All my dreams come true
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
There's a lot of things
That seem to go round
Like the world and the love and the fun
There's a lot of things
That seem to go round
But the girls and their love I get none
Saturday at midnight
Saturday at midnight
I can't wait for a call
It's just not my style
Been alone too long
But in a little while
When night closes in
And lights are gettin' bright
Makes it all worthwhile
Makes it all worthwhile tonight
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
(repeat and fade)


9.Love's Got A Hold On Me

Written:Rick Nielsen/Robin Zander/Bun E.Carlos

Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
You're not the first one
You're not the last one
You're not even on in between
You've got the power, this is your hour
You crawl through halls
On your hands and knees
It's not the way you look
The way you walk
Or the color of your hair (no)
It's not the way you look
The way you walk
Or the color of your hair
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
There is something I feel about you
A feelin' that just won't let go
But in an hour, you have the power
The power of love over me
It's not the way you look
The way you walk
Or the color of your hair (no)
It's not the way you look
The way you walk
Or the color of your hair
Then you threw it away, you threw it all away
As you walked right out the door
You threw it away, you threw it all away
As you walked right out the door
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
It's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
Your love has got me
It's got a hold on me, a hold on me
(repeat and fade)


10.I Want Be Man

Lyrics:Rick Nielsen
Music:Rick Nielsen

Your love has got me
I want be man
I want be man
I don't like living inside
This metal plastic shell
It's no way to treat your help
They'll tell you go to hell
I want be man
I want be man
Faster master
I've got better things which I can do
Hey I don't like livin' in this fleshy human shell
As much as I abuse it, it's really gone to hell
I want be man
I want be man
I'd rather be a robot
For I don't have to think
'Cause I'd be pre-programmed
And I don't have to dream
I'd rather be a man
Instead of a machine....
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)
I wanna live in your body (hey)


11.Four Letter Word

Written:Rick Nielsen/Robin Zander

I got a one track mind
I got a twisted heart
I need a lesson in love
I'm right on time
For tonight's the night
I need your love
Ooh yeah
Caught in the act
Had no alibi, no reason why
To let you down, oh
Stabbed in the back
Thought it hurt to let you go
Will you take me back, oh
What was right and wrong, oh
It's all right to put the blame on me
For after all blame it on my last...
It's all right, it takes two to make a crowd
Love can be just a four letter word
A four letter word
I got a one track mind
I got a twisted heart
I need a lesson in love
I'm right on time
For tonight's the night
I need your love
Day turns to night
I was wrong and you were right
Oh but Mister Hyde dropped by today
Sometimes I'm not myself
Must be somebody else
To jeopardize your love
What went wrong or right, oh
It's all right to put the blame on me
For after all blame it on my last...
It's all right, it takes two to make a crowd
Love can be just a four letter word
A four letter word
I got a one track mind
I got a twisted heart
I need a lesson in love
