Meat Loaf Welcome To The Neighborhood Lyrics
1.Where The Rubber Meets The Road

Lyrics:P.Jacobs/S.Durkee
Music:P.Jacobs/S.Durkee

Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his
head
Somewhere somebody's fearless and someone won't wind up dead
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's
correct
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check

Son I'm Mr. PC, believe you me, I'm the ultimate king of correct
And if you wanna make it, you gotta make her take it
As a sign of your deep respect
If you're gonna do it, you gotta see through it
To the heavenly trust that it is
Then you can call her a slut, and you can call her a slave
Just remember to call her Ms

Where the rubber meets the road
Welcome to protection mode
Used to be sex was a fine hello
Now the rubber meets the road

Ya say 'girl, you're a beauty', but I'm no beast
I got a little contract right here
See, you can slam on the brakes, anytime you got the stick
Even if we're in 4th gear
Cop in the front seat, lawyer in the back seat
Gettin' it on videotape
Got a shrink in the bed, lord, sittin' on the headboard
Swearin' that we both got raped

Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his
head
Somewhere somebody's fearless and someone won't wind up dead
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's
correct
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love, without a background check

Where the rubber meets the road
Boy meets girl then watch it explode
Yes means no means yes means no
Where the rubber meets the road!
Somewhere some girl is crazy, and some boy's half out of his
head
Somewhere there's just a moment, when it all remains unsaid
Somewhere two hearts are pounding, and they don't care what's
correct
Somewhere somebody's fallin' in love ...


2.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


3.Original Sin

Lyrics:Jim Steinman
Music:Jim Steinman

I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in, now I'm just looking
Then I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin

You can dance forever, you got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough
You can fly in never land and never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us was nothing but lies
Everything they they brought us was nothing but bribes
But it'll all be over now

All I wanted was a piece of the night, I never got an equal
share
When the stars are out of sight, And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in, now I'm just looking -
Then I'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin

You can lose yourself in pleasure 'til your body's going numb
But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough
You can always take whatever you conceivably could want
But will it ever be enough? You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day

Now I'm just looking, for an original sin
I've been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time
And I'm so very guilty for no reason or rhyme
So now I'm just looking, and I'm killing some time
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime

I'm applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge, moving in for the kill
They'll be hell to pay someday, so put it all on the bill
Cause we'll always be paying, and paying until
We're beyond expiration, with a license to thrill
I've been looking for an original sin


4.45 Seconds Of Ecstacy

Lyrics:Martha Minter Bailey
Music:Martha Minter Bailey

45 second of ecstasy
How it comes right back to me
Fly so high and feel so free
45 seconds of ecstasy
45 seconds of ecstasy
Cuts right through the complexity
When I feel him right next to me
45 seconds of ecstasy


5.Runnin' For The Red Light(I Gotta Life)

Lyrics:Vanda/Young/Aday/Durkee
Music:Vanda/Young/Aday/Durkee

Mader than a mad man and bored to the core
Minute hand crawling can't take it anymore
Future's up the highway ya gotta get away
Gonna take a little trip and find a Tijuana stray

Got the time to take it
Got the balls to break it
Gotta car that'll make it
South of the border, don't drink the water
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light

Oh Senorita, have two tequila
Heat seeker, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
She ain't a teacher, she ain't a preacher
Just so close to holy that you're runnin' just to reach her
Time bomb is tickin', my heads about to bust
Need your personal attention or I swear I'm gonna rust

Find a little place no one will tell you what to do
Tell her I'm a rebel, she says 'Yea, without a clue'
Just need some understanding a girl who ain't demanding
Who ain't afraid to fake it, leave you breathless
She's one of a kind

A little bad behavior, she's gonna be my savior
My knees are shakin', my back is breakin'
Oh Mama Mia, a Senorita
Gonna have a good time tonight
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light
Oh Senorita, have two tequila
Need sneakers, Lord the will is gettin' weaker
Gonna have a good time tonight
Burnin' with the fever and runnin' for the red light
Just heard the bell, that got me outta hell
Got a girl, I gotta life ...

7.Left In The Dark

Lyrics:Jim Steinman
Music:Jim Steinman

You don't need to sneak in the door just come on in to the room
I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone
I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you
There's been no reason to move, it's been as still as a tomb
I needed you oh so badly tonight but I guess you had better
things to do
I should have know that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind

I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3.
Well whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
Whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me

I know that you love me, there's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body, so take off your dress
I just want to get at the truth
And there are so many things that I just got to know
You tell me who! You tell me where! You tell me when!
But don't tell me now, I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again
Left in the dark again
I just need some love, so turn out the lights
And I'll be left in the dark again, Left Iin the dark again

I should have know that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes
And you still got his eyes on your mind
You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3.
Well whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
I guess you couldn't get it from me
But down in my soul - down in my soul I know

I just need some love, so turn out the lights, And I'll be left
in the dark again


8.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


9.Amnesty Is Granted

Lyrics:Sammy Hagar
Music:Sammy Hagar

Love's an hourglass, it goes out wide then it comes in closer
Time ticks away, it drifts away leaving empty sanded shoulders
Who said that love could last forever?
I'm growing tired of feeling like I do

As we drift apart, little secrets come between us
As we sail away, feelin' comfort in the distance
You said that love would last forever
Neither one of us will ever surrender

There a time, there's a place
A change of heart, about face
This is about love, it's about forgiveness
Tell me now - tell me like it is
You don't have to give - amnesty is granted
What's done is done for everyone
Come on baby let's start again right now
Amnesty is granted

You said that love would last forever
Neither one of us will ever surrender
There comes a time, there's a place
A change of heart, about face
This is about forgiveness

Tell me now - tell me like it is
No one has to give - amnesty is granted
What's done is done for everyone
Come on baby let's start again right now
Amnesty, amnesty, amnesty is granted


10.If This Is The Last Kiss(Let's Make It Last All Night)

Lyrics:Diane Warren
Music:Diane Warren

I know you're goin', I know this is good-bye
And I can't make you stay, no matter how I try
But ooh if you're leaving, please grant this one request
And leave my heart with some happiness

If this is the last kiss, let's make it last all night
If this is the last time I'm ever, ever gonna hold you
Let me hold you tight till the morning light
If this is the last time, ooh we'll ever be together
Kiss me and baby give me something
Tender to remember you by
If I can't be with you, oh baby all my life
The next best thing is you next to me all through the night

Pull all the shades down, put your heart next to mine
Tonight give me a chance to feel heaven just one more time
And ooh if you're leaving, honey I'll set you free
Just leave my arms this one sweet memory


11.Martha

Lyrics:T.Wait
Music:T.Wait

Operator, number please, it's been so many years
And she'll remember my old voice, while I fight the tears
Hello, hello there is tis Martha? This is old Tom Frost
And I am calling long distance, don't worry about the cost
It's been 40 years or more, now Martha please recall
And meet me out for coffee, where we'll talk about it all

And those were the days of roses
Poetry and prose and Martha
And all I had was you and all you had was me
And there was no tomorrow's as we packed away our sorrows
And we saved it for a rainy day

And I feel so much older now and you're much older too
Oh how's the husband and how's the kids?
You know that I got married too!
Oh lucky that you found someone to make you feel secure
Oh cause we were all so young and foolish and now we are mature

And I was always so impulsive, I guess that I still am
But all that really mattered then was that I was a man
I guess that our being together was never meant to be
Oh but Martha, Martha I love you mcan't you see

And I remember quiet evenings trembling close to you


12.Where Angels Sing

Lyrics:S.A.Davis
Music:S.A.Davis

Meet me downtown on the corner
I'll be waiting in a big yellow cab
Don't bring a suitcase, you won't need a thing
There'll be no worries, where angels sing

I got my ticket in my hand
Oh the price is paid in full
No man can stop me
Their words won't sting you
No dreams will haunt you
Where Angels sing

I get so weary, on this troubled road
Unlock these chains, and gently rock me home
Beyond the clouds and the rain, where angels sing
Where lies can't hurt me, the flesh desert me
No in or out, no loss or doubt
No living with or doing without
Where money ain't the power king
And kindness is the most precious thing
Where Angels sing, Oh where angels sing

Where time means nothing, no hustle
No one rushing
No dark of night, no hate or spite
No wrong or right, no day or night
No towns or no cities, there's no pain, no pity
Where hunger is no longer
And a good man just gets stronger
Where Angels sing
