1.Home By Now(No Matter What)
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Andrew Lloyd Webber
The locusts are singing, the sun is red
It's gotten so late somehow
There's gonna be trouble, you know what they said
We should have been home by now
The thunder is rolling, the sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger, God I wish we were back
We should have been home by now
No matter what they tell us, no matter what they do
No matter what they teach us, what we believe is true
No matter what they call us, however they attack
No matter where they take us, we'll find our own way back
I can't deny what I believe, I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever
I know, no matter what
If only tears were laughter, if only night was day
If only prayers were answered then we would hear God say：
'No matter what they tell you, no matter what they do
No matter what they teach you, what you believe is true'
And I will keep you safe and strong and sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren, a dream is being born
No matter who they follow, no matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us, I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine or if the skies are blue
No matter what the ending, my life began with you
I can't deny what I believe, I can't be what I'm not
I know this love's forever, I know no matter what
The thunder is rolling, the sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger, God I wish we were back
We should have been home by now
2.Life Is A Lemon And I Want My Money Back(Remix)
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman
I want my money back! I want my money back!
It's all or nothing, and nothing's all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out
It's always something, there's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about
It's a never ending attack, everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And all the morons and all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules, it's not a game, it's just
a rout
There's desperation, there's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes and no detergent gets it
out
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
I want my money back, I want my money back
What about love？ It's defective - it's always breaking in half
What about sex？ It's defective - it's never built to really last
What about your family？ It's defective - all the batteries are
shot
What about your friends？ They're defective - all the parts are
out of stock
What about hope？ It's defective - it's corroded and decayed
What about faith？ It's defective - it's tattered and it's frayed
What about your Gods？ They're defective - They forgot the
warranty
What about your town？ It's defective - it's a dead end street to
me
What about your school？ It's defective - it's a pack of useless
lies
What about your work？ It's defective - it's a crock and then you
die
What about your childhood？ It's defective - it's dead and buried
in the past
What about your future？ It's defective - and you can shove it up
your ass!
I want my money back - life is a lemon
I want my money back - life is a lemon, life is a lemon
It's all or nothing, and nothing's all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
3.You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth(Hot Summer Night)
Written：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman／Todd Rundgren
(spoken)
BOY：On a hot summer night,
would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses？
GIRL： Will he offer me his mouth？
BOY： Yes.
GIRL： Will he offer me his teeth？
BOY： Yes.
GIRL： Will he offer me his jaws？
BOY： Yes.
GIRL： Will he offer me his hunger？
BOY： Yes.
GIRL： Again, will he offer me his hunger？
BOY： Yes!
GIRL： And does he love me？
BOY： Yes.
GIRL： Yes.
BOY： On a hot summer night,
would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses？
GIRL： Yes.
BOY： I bet you say that to all the boys!
(sung)
It was a hot summer night
and the beach was burning.
There was fog crawling over the sand.
When I listen to your heart
I hear the whole world turning.
I see the shooting stars falling
through your trembling hands.
You were licking your lips
and your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
by the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.
You hold me so close that my knees grow weak.
But my soul is flying high above the ground.
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin.
Oh we're finally alone and we can do what we want to.
The night is young
And Ain't no-one gonna know where you
No-one gonna know where you
No-one's gonna know where you've been.
You were licking your lips
and your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
by the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
4.Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad
Written：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman／Todd Rundgren
Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't gettin us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here
And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here
I poured it on and I poured it out
I tried to show you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears
And all I can do, Is keep on telling you
I want you, I need you, but there ain't no way I'm ever gonna
love you
Now don't be sad, 'Cause two out of three ain't bad
You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no Coup de Ville
Hiding at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box
I can't lie, I can't tell you something I'm not
No matter how I try, I'll never be able
To give you something, something that I just haven't got
There's only one girl that I will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back, ooh I know
I remember how she left me on a stormy night
She kissed me and got out of our bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door
She packed her bags and turned right away
And she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me, she kept on telling me
I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad, 'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
5.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
6.Rock And Roll Dreams Come Through
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman
You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start
You want to shut out the night, you want to shut down the sun
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart
Think of how we'd lay down together
We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs
I treasure your love, I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And I know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And I know you've got the scars to prove it
Remember everything that I told you,
And I'm telling you again that it's true
When you're alone and afraid, and you're completely amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
There's always something magic, there's always something new
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through
The beat is yours forever, the beat is always true
And when you really really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through for you
Once upon a time was a backbeat,
Once upon a time all the chords came to life
And the angels had guitars even before they had wings
If you hold onto a chorus you can get through the night
Remember everything that I told you,
And I'm telling you again that it's true
You're never alone cause you can put on the phones
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do
Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
The beat is yours forever - that's when rock and roll dreams
come through
7.Is Nothing Sacred
Lyrics：Don Black
Music：Jim Steinman
If a love as strong as ours couldn't make it all the way
Can anything make sense at all？
If a love so deep and true couldn't stand the test of time
Then Mount Everest could slide and Jerusalem could fall
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say goodbye, if we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore？
I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around
It doesn't matter who was right
There's no justice in a dream
Never thought a heart could break without making any sound
Our love was as certain as the dawn
As solid and safe as any love could be
Our love was a star to wish upon
And I thought that I'd saved you
Could've sworn that you saved me
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say goodbye. If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore？
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore？
8.Paradise By The Dashboard Light
Written：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman／Todd Rundgren
BOY：
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, hold on tight
C'mon, hold on tight
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
GIRL：
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed
BOTH：
Ain't no doubt about it
Baby got to go out and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
BOY： 'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed
Baby don'cha hear my heart
You got it drowing out the radio
I've been waiting so long
For you to come along and have some fun
And I gotta let you know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes, I got a big surprise
It'll feel all right
Well I wanna make you motor run
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, Hold on tight
C'mon, Hold on tight
BOTH：
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can
And let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
RADIO BROADCAST：
OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
There's the wind-up, and there it is
A line shot up the middle, look at him go
This boy can really fly
He's rounding first and really turning it on now
He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second
The ball is bobbled out in the center
And here's the throw and what a throw
He's gonna slide in head first
Here he comes, he's out
No, wait, safe, safe at second base
This kid really makes things happen out there
Batter steps up to the plate
Here's the pitch, he's going
Amd what a jump he's got
He's trying for third
Here's the throw
It's in the dirt, safe a third
Holw cow, stolen base
He's taking a pretty big lead out there
Almost daring them to pick him off
The pitcher glances over, winds-up and it's bunted
Bunted down the third base line
The suicide squeeze is on
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close
Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate
Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it
GIRL：
Stop right there
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you make me so happy
For the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you make me so happy
For the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
BOY：
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
GIRL：
I gotta know right now
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you make me so happy
For the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me
And will you love me forever
BOY：
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
GIRL：
Will you love me forever
BOY：
Let me sleep on it
GIRL
Will you love me forever
BOY：
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god
And on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore I would love you to the end of time
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
So I can end my time with you
BOY：
It was long ago and it was far away,
And it was so much better than it is today.
GIRL：
It never felt so good, It never felt so right
And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.
9.Heaven Can Wait
Written：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman／Todd Rundgren
Heaven can wait,
And a band of Angels wrapped up in my heart,
Will take me through the lonely night,
Through the cold of the day.
And I know, I know,
Heaven can wait,
And all the gods come down here just to sing for me,
And the melody's gonna make me fly,
Without pain, without fear.
Give me all of your dreams,
And let me go alone on your way.
Give me all of your prayers to sing,
And I'll turn the night into the skylight of day.
I got a taste of paradise,
I'm never gonna let it slip away.
I got a taste of paradise,
It's all I really need to make me stay
Just like a child again.
Heaven can wait.
And all I've got is time until the end of time.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.
And I know that I've been released,
But I don't know to where,
And nobody's gonna tell me now,
And I don't really care. No, no, no.
I got a taste of paradise.
That's all I really need to make me stay.
I got a taste of paradise.
If I had it any sooner you know
You know I never would have run away from my home.
Heaven can wait.
And all I've got is time until the end of time.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.
Heaven can wait.
Heaven can wait.
I won't look back.
I won't look back.
Let the altars shine.
Let the altars shine.
10.I'd Do Anything For Love(But I Won't Do That)
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman
And I would do anything for love, I'd run right into hell and
back
I would do anything for love, I'll never lie to you and that's a
fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way
And I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, I won't
do that
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, oh I won't do
that
Some days it don't come easy, and some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all, and these are the days that
never end
Some nights you're breathing fire, and some nights you're carved
in ice
Some nights you're like nothing I've ever seen before or will
again
Maybe I'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning, as long as the stars are
burning
As long as your dreams are coming true, you better believe it
That I would do anything for love, and I'll be there til the
final act
I would do anything for love, and I'll take a vow and seal a
pact
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for
love
Oh I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't
do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
Some days I pray for silence, and somedays I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N
Roll
Some nights I lose the feeling, and some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the
thunder rolls
Maybe I'm lonely and that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turning, as long as the fires are
burning
As long as your prayers are coming true, you better believe it
That I would do anything for love, and you know it's true and
that's a fact
I would do anything for love, and there'll never be no turning
back
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so
long
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for
love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no no no I
won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no
way
And I would do anything for love, oh I would do anything for
love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
Will you raise me up, will you help me down？
Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town？
Will you make it all a little less cold？
I can do that! I can do that!
Will you hold me sacred？ Will you hold me tight？
Can you colorize my life, I'm so sick of black and white？
Can you make it all a little less old？
I can do that! Oh oh, now I can do that!
Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands？
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand？
Can you give me something I can take home？
I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!
Will you cater to every fantasy I got？
Will ya hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot？
Will you take me places I've never known？
I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
I won't do that! No I won't do that!
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
I won't do that! No I won't do that!
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do
that
11.A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
If you listen to the night, you can hear the darkness call
I can barely stand to wait, I can barely stand it all
C'mon closer to me now, it's like we're sharing the same skin
We gotta get out of this jail, we gotta let the future in
So many things in your life, that you're bound to regret
Why didn't I do that？ Why didn't I do this？
So many chances you lost, that you'll never forget
Why didn't I make it, why didn't I take it right there？
The loneliest words you'll ever know, 'If only-if only it was
so'
The emptiest words that they'll ever be, 'It could have been
me!'
You'll have to pay for it later, if you don't get it when it's
going for free
Believe me! Believe Me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights, you're gonna show me that you already
know
There's a feast waiting for you, and you've never gotton a taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to
waste
You shouldn't tremble when we touch, there's no reason for these
fears
It's a promise that was made, we've been promised this for years
I wanna show you it all, what to do and where and how!
Cause we'll never be as young as we are right now
WE'LL NEVER BE AS YOUNG AS WE ARE RIGHT NOW!
So many cries in the night, that you try to ignore
Why didn't I take it？ Why didn't I make it come true？
The loneliest words you'll ever know, 'if only if only it was
so'
The emptiest words that they'll ever be,' It could have been me'
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we're losing, it only matters what we're
going to find
There's a feast waiting for you, and you've never even gotton a
taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to
waste
12.I'd Lie For You(And That's The Truth)
Lyrics：Diane Warren
Music：Diane Warren
I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Baby give me a chance
I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Put your heart in my hands
Baby believe me I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
I might be crazy, but I'm crazy about you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
Ain't a star that's too far
Your every wish will be a wish that I will make come true
And if you want the moon I swear I'll bring it down for you
Let me into your heart
Believe me baby, got your name carved on my soul
'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it too
Go let'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy, then I'm crazy 'bout you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy 'bout you
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
13.Not A Dry Eye In The House
Lyrics：Diane Warren
Music：Diane Warren
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound, hear the sound of a heart
breaking
I can still see you standin' there, midnight wind blowin'
through your hair
Remember kisses sweet in the salty air, when love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
Scene has changed now I'm without you
Well you just walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie - the way you said goodbye
You must have spent a lot of time rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house, after love's curtain
comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound, hear the sound of a heart
breaking
Not a smile left on my face, the ending's just to sad to take
And there's not a dry eye, not a dry eye in the house
The greatest story was you and me, had it all we had everything
But now the story's done, it's just history, the last act is
over
Your every line had the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my world around
But then the light came up and my world crashed down
End of show - it's over
Act One： The story's just begun
Act Two： I fell in love with you
Act Three： Knew it was meant to be
Act Four： You don't love me no more
And there's not a dry eye in the house, after love's curtain
comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound, hear the sound of a heart
breaking
Not a smile left on my face, the ending's just to sad to take
And there's not a dry eye, not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house, after love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound, hear the sound of a heart
breaking
14.Nocturnal Pleasure
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
SPOKEN
The entire city is burning
You can see the flames like the inside of a mad jukebox
Lost boys stalk the streets with those jungle markings on their
chest
Barbarians prowl in shadows their heads rocking with rodents
Motorcycles reproduce in nocturnal alleys
Groaning with greasy pleasure
And they've blown up the YMCA like a giant balloon
And sent it out to sea full of screaming, lovely, lonely girls
15.Dead Ringer For Love
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
Every night I grab some money
And I go down to the bar
I got my buddies and a beer
I got a dream - I need a car
You got me begging on my knees
C'Mon and throw this dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by
Rock 'n'Roll and brew alone, Baby, Baby
Rock 'n' Roll and brew, Rock 'n' Roll and brew
I know that you and I, we got better things to do
Rock 'n' Roll and brew, Rock 'n' Roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you
But you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are
But you're a real dead ringer for love
You're a real dead ringer for love
Ever since I can remember
You been hanging around this joint
You been trying to look away
But now you finally got the point
I don't have to know your name
And I won't tell you what to do
But a girl - she doesn't live by only
Rock 'n' Roll and brew, Baby, Baby
Rock 'n' Roll and brew
Rock 'n' Roll and brew
Boy they don't mean a thing
When I compare 'em next to you
Rock 'n' Roll and brew
Rock 'n' Roll and brew
I know that you and I
We got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do
Or where you go when you're not around
I don't know anything about you baby
But you're everything I'm dreaming of
I don't know who you are
But you're a real dead ringer for love
You're a real dead ringer for love
You got the kind of legs, that do more than walk
I don't have to listen to your whimpering talk
Listen you got the kind of eyes, that do more than see
You gotta lot of nerve, coming on to me
You got the kind of lips, that do more than drink
You got the kind of mind, that does less than think
But since I'm feeling kinda lonely and my defenses are low
Why don't we give it shot and get ready to go
I'm looking for anonymous and fleeting satisfaction
And I want to tell my Daddy that I'll be missing in action
Ever since I can remember
I've been hanging around this joint
My Daddy never noticed it
Now he finally got the point
You got me beggin' on my knees, C'Mon and throw this dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by Rock 'n' Roll and brew alone, Baby,
Baby
16.Midnight At The Lost And Found
Written：M.L.Aday／S.Buslowe／P.Christie／D.Peyronel
Hey Ricky, now mine is empty how about one for you
We could set it out together seem's tomorrow's overdue
Captain Video, done went home one pilot laid to rest
And dragon ladies talk that talk about who loves who -- who
loves best
Silver bullets in the jukebox
Spin another round
Everybody at the back of the line
It's midnight at the lost and found
Midnight at the lost and found
Lost souls in the hunting ground
A remedy for all your ills
At the lost and found
Midnight at the lost and found
Have a double, it's gettin' late you'll get home, just rely on
fate
Place just finally came alive good old boys just arrived
Stools keep changin' faces and the night just slips away
And like a long distance love affair soon you've got to pay
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
Silver bullets in the jukebox
Spin another round
Everybody get back in line
Last call for the lost and found
17.Objects In The Rear View Mirror(May Appear Closer Than They Are)
Lyrics：Jim Steinman
Music：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman
The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than it's ever been
When I grew up with my best friend Kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it
real
But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was
gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground
But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very
far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and
again
I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run
away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life
became my own
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back
There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything I'll ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, Caution! Kids At Play!
Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
18.Bat Out Of Hell
Written：Jim Steinman
Arranger：Jim Steinman／Todd Rundgren
The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling,
way down in the valley tonight.
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye,
and a blade shining oh so bright.
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in sky,
and A killer's on the bloodshot streets.
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising,
Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter,
He was starting to foam in the heat.
Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world,
that's pure and good and right.
And wherever you are and wherever you go,
there's always gonna be some light.
But I gotta get out,
I gotta break it out now,
Before the final crack of dawn.
So we gotta make the most of our one night together.
When it's over you know,
We'll both be so alone.
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes.
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone gone gone.
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes.
But when the day is done and the sun goes down,
and the moonlights shining through,
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven,
I'll come crawling on back to you.
I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram,
on a silver black phantom bike.
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry,
and we're all about to see the light.
Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole.
Everything is stunted and lost.
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost.
And I know that I'm damned if I never get out,
And maybe I'm damned if I do,
But with every other beat I've got left in my heart,
You know I'd rather be damned with you.
If I gotta be damned you know I wanns be damned,
dancing through the night with you.
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned.
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned.
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned,
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you.
Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world,
that's pure and good and right.
And wherever you are and wherever you go,
there's always gonna be some light.
But I gotta get out,
I gotta break it out now,
Before the final crack of dawn.
So we gotta make the most of our one night together.
When it's over you know,
We'll both be so alone.
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes.
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone gone gone.
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes.
But when the day is done and the sun goes down,
and the moonlights shining through,
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven,
I'll come crawling on back to you.
I can see myself tearing up the road,
Faster than any other boy has ever gone.
And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe.
No-one's gonna stop me now,
I gotta make my escape.
But I can't stop thinking of you,
and I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late.
I never see the sudden curve 'till it's way too late.
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun.
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike.
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell.
And the last thing I see is my heart,
Still beating,
Breaking out of my body,
And flying away,
Like a bat out of hell.
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun.
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike.
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell.
And the last thing I see is my heart.
Still beating, still beating,
Breaking out of my body and flying away,
Like a bat out of hell.
Like a bat out of hell.
Like a bat out of hell.
Oh like a bat out of hell!
Oh like a bat out of hell!
Like a bat out of hell!
