The Go-Go's Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.We Got The Beat

See the people walking down the street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don't know where they wanna go
But they're walking in time

They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
They got the beat

See the kids just getting out of school
They can't wait to hang out and be cool
Hang around 'til quarter after twelve
That's when they fall in line

Kids got the beat
They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
Kids got the beat

Go-go music really makes us dance
Do the pony puts us in a trance
do the watusi just give us a chance
That's when we fall in line

We got the beat
We got the beat
We got the beat
Yeah
We got the beat

Everybody get on your feet
We know you can dance to the beat
Jumpin'-get down
Round and round and round


2.Party Pose


See me pose
Having so much fun
Champagne glass in my hand
My put on smile
On my painted face
I show no trace of boredom

See me laugh
At your jokes
Your gossiping lips
You look so divine, so divine
In your Fiorucci dress
Your party is finess

Charming, darling

Party pose
Let's pretend
Jet set
Rive Gauche
Party pose
Quite dull
Moet Chandon
Andy Warhol

See me fit
The stylish crowd
Hear the stories
The worldly wise
Exaggerate
We've been around
We've seen it all
We're so profound

See my friends
Walk in the door
Eat caviar, drink
Ash the floor
Party crash patrol
Has come
Party pose
Has just begun

Party pose
Lets pretend
Jet set
Rive Gauche
Party pose
Quite dull
Moet Chandon
Andy Warhol

See me pose
Having so much fun
Champagne glass in my hand
My put on smile
On my painted face
I show no trace of boredom

See me laugh
At your jokes
Your gossiping lips
You look so divine
In your Fiorucci dress
Your party is finess

Charming, darling

4.(Remember) Walking In The Sand


Seems like the other day
My baby, he went away
He went away across the sea

It's been two years ago
That's when my baby go
That's when this letter it came to me

He said that we were through
He'd found somebody new
Oooh, let me think
Oooh, let me think
What can I do?

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no no no no no
Walking in the sand
Walking hand in hand
The night was so exciting
His lips were so inviting

Whatever happened to
The boy that I once knew
The boy who said he'd be true
What will happen to
The life I gave to you
What will I do with my heart now

(Remember) walking in the sand
(Remember) walking hand in hand
(Remember) walking in the sand

(Remember) walking in the sand
(Remember) walking hand in hand
(Remember) walking in the sand

(Remember) walking in the sand
(Remember) walking hand in hand
(Remember) walking in the sand

(Remember) walking in the sand
(Remember) walking hand in hand
(Remember) walking in the sand


5.Our Lips Our Sealed

Lyricist:Terry Hall, Jane Wiedlin

Nobody's perfect, and that's something that
I'm sure she'll know
'Cos trying to tell her lies from the truth at times
Is like trying to divide ice from snow
When I knew it was over, I jumped into a taxi
And said, just guess where to go
And the driver turned about and said
Finding what you want is like
Trying to divide ice from snow

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
That I'd never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldn't care less

Nobody's helpless, although
I've never felt this helpless before
And trying to persuade myself not to think about her
Is like trying to tell the clouds not to pour
So I put down the bottle
While in my head time is collapsing
And the currents run cold
So I can curse her memory
But don't try telling me that she was not
An emerald in a mountain of coal
Or that there's a crock of cures for cancer
At the end of the rainbow

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
That I'd never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldn't care less

And she's the kind of girl who won't forgive
But will forget
So take me frome this party, driver
Put me back to bed
I wanted to be loved but just got laughed at instead
So if this taxi is for hire
I'll get in the back
Just to hear the friction of the tarmac and the tyres

So nobody's perfect, and that's something that
I'm sure she'll know
And trying to persuade myself
Not to think about her is like
Trying to tell the cockerels not to crow
Or like trying to tell the striker
Not to think about the goal

So here I sit, rolling back to bed
Knowing love is a hazard
That'd I'd never guessed
But from this side of the morning
I couldn't care less


Lyricist:Charlotte Caffey, Jane Wiedlin

Every night I see you walk
Walking by and walking by
You hold your head so close to hers
I could cry, yeah, I could cry

I want to be that girl tonight
Girl tonight, girl tonight

How much more can I take
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah

How much more heartache
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah

Love is in your eyes
Making me cry
Why isn't it me?

She's looking good
Just like I would
If it could be me

How much more can I take
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah

How much more heartache
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah

Every night I see you walk
Walking by, yeah walking by
You hold your head so close to hers
I could cry, yeah, I could cry

I want to be that girl tonight
Girl tonight, girl tonight

How much more can I take
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah

How much more heartache
Before I go crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah
Crazy, oh yeah, yeah


Lyricist:Charlotte Caffey, Jane Wiedlin

It used to be the fun was in
The capture and kill
In another place and time
I did it all for thrills

Love me and I'll leave you
I told you at the start
I had no idea that you
Would tear my world apart

And you're the one to blame
I used to know my name
But I've lost control of the game

'Cause even though I set the rules
You've got me acting like a fool
When I see you I lose my cool

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love

That was when the fun was in
The capture and kill
In another place and time
I did it all for thrills

Love me and I'll leave you
I told you at the start
I had no idea that you
Would tear my world apart

And you're the one to blame
I used to know my name
But I've lost control of the game

'Cause even though I set the rules
You've got me acting like a fool
When I see you I lose my cool

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love

Lust to love
Was the last thing I was dreaming of
And all I wanted was is just to love
Lust is turned to love


8.Living At The Canterbury / Party Pose

Lyricist:...

Okay living in the city
Whores outside a posing
Traffic noise a lullaby
Skyscrapers better than the blue skies

We can do what we want
We can say what we please
We can be who we want
Being poor's okay by me
Proud I don't have no T.V.

Living at the Canterbury
(My friends think I'm a fool)
Living at the Canterbury
I guess it's pretty cool

Living at the Canterbury
Fighting off the roaches
Like being in a dormitory
Till rental due approaches

(Don't know where we'll get the cash)
Spent it all on booze
I'm no fool with credit cards
It's better not to think
Sometimes little I like to think


Lyricist:Regina Ann Schock, Kathryn Valentine

You and all your mystery
Only secrets, no clues
Had to make you history
Now you're yesterday's news

Once I wanted you so bad
Thought I'd never let go
Now I've had it up to here
And you're ready to blow

Everything's the same
One thing's changed
I'm without you

I stand to gain
No fear remains
Here without you

I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone
I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone

Learned to live a life so well
That's what we did best
All the good forgotten now
And I've got no regrets

Everything's the same
One thing's changed
I'm without you

I stand to gain
No fear remains
Here without you

I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone
I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone

Learned to live a life so well
Yeah, you know we did our best
All the good forgotten now
And I've got no regrets

Everything's the same
One thing's changed
I'm without you

I stand to gain
No fear remains
Here without you

Everything's the same
One thing's changed
I'm without you

I stand to gain
No fear remains
Here without you

Everything's the same
One thing's changed
I'm without you

I stand to gain
No fear remains
Here without you

I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone
I'm good forgotten
You're good for gone


Lyricist:Charlotte Caffey, Jane Wiedlin

I can't explain the way I feel
Each time I get behind the wheel

The rush of blood comes
As the power surges
And my right foot urges
The car to push on through the night

Driving faster
Driving past the scenery
And pretty view and

Feel the speed and
I don't dream of
Driving slow some other time

One thing I'm certain that I know
All I want to do is go, go, go

Everything is rushing by
My heart is pounding deep inside
I gotta match the engine's pace
Win imaginary race, yeah

Driving faster
Driving past the scenery
And pretty view and

I feel as though I've
Got to control my
Reckless need to speed and speed

And speed
And speed
And speed
And speed


Lyricist:Ronald Mael, Russell Mael, Jane Wiedlin

You're alone and I am too
You're my idea of a pretty view
You can move or so it seems
I bet we'd make a decent team

I'm not asking for all your time
A song or two would suit me fine
I'm not asking for you to say
That you'll be with me all the way

Shut your mind off for a while
Concentrate on the latest style
And every thing's alright

Yes or no, I'll take it fast or slow
I'll make it easy for you to decide
Yes or no, you've got to let it go
Just take a stance
Either dance or tell me no

If you've got somewhere to be
If you've got someone besides me
Let me know, don't put me on
If it's not right then I'll be gone

All those dancers can't be wrong
All those answers take too long
So tell me, tell me now

Yes or no, I'll take it fast or slow
I'll make it easy for you to decide
Yes or no, you've got to let it go
Just take a stance
Either dance or tell me no

All those dancers can't be wrong
All those answers take too long
So tell me, tell me now

Yes or no, I'll take it fast or slow
I'll make it easy for you to decide
Yes or no, you've got to let it go
Just take a stance
Either dance or tell me no
