1.Bad Attitude
Lyrics：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
Music：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
They say you never come home
Boy you been driving too fast
When you gonna shape up
How long is this gonna last
You may be laughin' today
But listen to some good advice
Take a look at tomorrow in a workin' man's weary eyes
You gotta pick a career
Go for the gold
Smile for the camera
Do what you're told
Well you can take away the ladder cuz I ain't gonna climb it
If there's a stairway to heaven I swear I'm gonna find it
Yeah there are winners and outlaws
And leaders and lovers
Behind every man in the news
And one thing I know is behind everyone
There's a boy who had nothing to lose
Behind every man who has somethin' to say
There's a boy who had nothing to prove
Every hero was once
Every villain was once
Just a boy with a bad attitude
She says you never call
How come you're actin' so tough
You either hold me so tight
Or you don't hold me enough
Don't be afraid a' me angel
I ain't about to clip your wings
Just put your feet on the ground
And your arms around the real thing
You gotta love me for keeps, feather the neat
Plan for the future, gimmee your best
But we're never gonna have a normal family life
Steamin' up and down the speedway on the back a' your bike
Bad attitude, you got us tearin' our hair
Such a bad attitude, boy you just don't seem to care
We try to lay down the rules, but you were born to refuse
What's the world gonna do with a boy like you
You got it bad, you got a bad attitude
2.Modern Girl
Lyrics：Paul Jacobs／Sarah Durkee
Music：Paul Jacobs／Sarah Durkee
Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby girl born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time now it's a brand new world
Gimmee the future, Gimmee the future
Gimmee the future with a modern girl
Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain
There's a skip in the clock
Girl that's where I'm gonna find you
Between the boy I was before and what I'm gonna be
There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky
Girl that's where you're gonna find me
Can't ya hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine
Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens
But you and I stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future
Gimmee the future with a modern girl
We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future
Laughin' while the road maps blow away
Gimmee the future with a modern girl
We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future
Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made
Gimmee the future with a modern girl
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future
Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby boy born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time now it's a brand new world
Gimmee the future, Gimmee the future
Gimmee the future with a modern girl
3.Nowhere Fast
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
It's getting cold, it's getting dark
The nights are longer everyday
The air is heavy and the clouds will never burn away
And we've been waiting here so long
That we've forgotten what it's like
To run into the fire lookin' straight into the
Straight into the light
Your soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
And if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And your speed it's all you'll ever need
All you'll ever need to know
You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly
And we gotta get away from the past
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
It's so much better goin' nowhere fast
You shouldn't always see your world so clearly
You shouldn't always know your place so well
And all we're doin' here is hangin' around
And goin' nowhere has got to be heaven
Cuz stayin' here is gonna be hell
I'm getting lost, I'm getting found
I'm getting born again each day
We're dyin' on the vine til we finally get away
The boundaries of this town are closin' in just like a noose
The future's gonna rust if we don't put it to some use
Your heart is tryin' to rock but it can barely beat at all
You're soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over that line
I want to tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your
back
We're tearin' down the highway and we're breakin' away
Breakin' away from the pack
4.Surf's Up
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
The waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I want to take your hand and make it feel so right
I know I'm ready and I'll never be like this again
And the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
I know you're ready and we're runnin' on the back of the wind
And my body is burnin' like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice, I wanna fall in the fire
I'm gonna drown in the ocean in a bottomless sea
I'm gonna give what I hope you'll be givin' me tonight
And when the waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
And now the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
How hard, how hard
How hard do I gotta try
I want all your love, surf's up
I need it so bad, surf's up
I need it so bad
Surf's up and so am I
I gotta give you some love
Surf's up, and so am I
5.Piece Of The Action
Lyrics：Paul Jacobs／Sarah Durkee
Music：Paul Jacobs／Sarah Durkee
Somewhere a red-eyed waitress glances
At another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy
Stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams
Someone is cleanin' up the offices
One window burnin' in the dark
Somebody's cryin' is there any way in hell
To light a comet from a single spark
Workin' so hard I can't remember much
About the freedom I been workin' for
Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes
And saw a million wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away
Every dog'll have his day in time
Well I been slavin' like a dog and I got nothin' to show ya
But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes
I want a piece
A piece of the action
Gimme a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action
A piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master
Gonna cut these strings
Been livin' just like my old man did
And neither one of us could get it right
Punchin' in when the day begins
And punchin' out the local boys at night
There's someone leavin' on a peelin' porch
And someone leavin' on a silver plane
I finally know the man I'd rather be
Girl I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name
They hand you a paycheck every week
And steal a piece of your soul every day
Well I don't need no gold watch in fifty years
Baby let's be golden today
Somewhere a red-eyed waitress glances
At another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy
Stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams ...
6.Jumpin' The Gun
Lyrics：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
Music：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
Heaven blesses those who wait
Patience is a virtue son
Keep your toe on the line
Keep your foot on the brake
No sense jumpin' the gun
Girl I'm tired of waitin' you know life's too short
Lemme kiss ya 'til the night is done
Ain't no doubt about it you're my favorite sport
God I wanna jump the gun
Feel like, jumpin' the gun
Tonight I'm gonna jump the gun
No crime in havin' some fun
How about jumpin' the gun
They say it doesn't matter if ya win or lose
Only matters how ya play the game
Well let me tell ya baby if I had to choose
Gotta win ya know or go insane
Willya hold me like a trophy
Willya burn up the track
Willya love me when the title's won
Blow away the competition baby
Never look back
Tonight I'm gonna jump!
Better get ready
Better get set girl
This time we're jumpin' the gun
Ya think we're goin' too fast
Ain't sen nothin' yet girl
This time we're jumpin' the gun
Ready, take your mark
Oh I just can't wait
This time we're jumpin' the gun
Y'gotta break a couple rules
If ya wanna break the tape
This time we're jumpin' the gun
7.Cheatin' In Your Dreams
Lyrics：J.Parr
Music：J.Parr
You see me now as large as life
But underneath you knew all too well
The hollow shell no spark of life
Where once upon a time there beat a heart for you
And you knew it from the start
But you went and blew it all away
And you knew how, yeah you knew best
The strings to pull and the buttons to press
To wind me up and make me shake
You controlling every move I make
I couldn't see through it, all the pain
And you put me through it
Over and over again
How could you say there was no other
Why is it nothing's what it seems
You told me I'm your greatest lover
Do you even know what that word means
You lovin' is coolin'
Baby who d'ya think you're foolin'
Cuz when I woke up
I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
Stop it, stop it
Don't you say a word
I felt my hands around her neck
And everything went blurred
Broken, broken
She slipped from out my hands
She lay so still and lifeless
I cried baby, baby, baby
It was my dumb luck
I just came unstuck
When my whole world shook
I'd had about enough
Cuz when I woke up
I caught you cheatin' in your dreams
8.Don't Leave Your Mark On Me
Lyrics：J.Parr／J.Downes
Music：J.Parr／J.Downes
Under your protective wing I walked into the light
And a thousand angry demons up and took flight
I went running through the fields with that fever in my veins
And the rain came crashing down and tried to clear my name
Above my head, all in red, I could see you
Leaning down on me you said you're not running out
You said you're leaving now, I will find you
There is no way out
I'll keep tracking you down in the still of the night
Mine forever, mine forever
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to reply
I'm not staying, I'm just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me
There's no need to reply, I'm not staying
This nightmare never ends, memories of absent friends
Masked illusions stare at me
Point the finger silently
Stand accused of a dark affair
There's a ghost in here somewhere
There's a ghost in here somewhere
Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of the night
A shadow in the doorway beckons me inside
And something led the way through I couldn't see its face
And a voice from deep inside me seemed to get out of this place
In my head, all was said as the jailor turned the key on me
He said you're not running out, he said you're not leaving now
He said there's no way, there is no way
Don't leave your mark on me
9.Sailor To A Siren
Lyrics：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
Music：P.Jacobs／S.Durkee
Long distance callin' in the middle of a rainy night
So much static hardly knew your voice
You've been cryin', want me to love you like I did before
Girl when it comes to you, you know I got no choice
You put a storm inside me
Oughta head for a safer harbor
They all tell me I should give you up
Well no man coulda tried any harder
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time I hear you callin' to me
Just wanna feel you in my arms again
Like a sailor, to a siren
Like a moth to a flame
I know your love might be the death of me
But I run to you just the same
Like a sailor, to a siren
Nothin's gonna keep us apart
Crashin' over the wreckage of all the sailor's broken hearts
Musta met you when we were livin' in another time
Had nothin' but the jealous Gods to point our way
When we were sailors and a woman was a rocky shore
Wailin' like a siren leadin' him astray
I got another woman and I know you got another man
They all tell me I should give you up
But I don't think that any mortal can
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time I hear you callin' to me
Just wanna feel you in my arms again
Gonna abandon ship
Gonna steal you from the cliff
Take you to a place where the Gods can't find us no more
Let the sailors listen to the sirens if they dare
Gonna be dancin' on the water
Drownin' in your yellow hair
