The Power Station Power Station Lyrics
1.Communication

Lyricist:Derek Bramble, Robert Allan Palmer, Andy Taylor, John Taylor

Airmail, cassettes
Postcards, telex
Drop me a line
Need my grapevine

I'm always tryin' to reach you, can't get through
Our communication depends on me and you
Got to stay in touch even though you're on the move
Keep your lines open, say, what's new

Exchange the facts
Keep in contact
I keep on tryin' to call you but I can't get through
Our communication must get through

Communication
(Don't hang up)
Communication
(Keep in touch)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Send word, stay tuned
Call me real soon
Every time I phone you
You're not home

We've got to stay in touch on the telephone
I keep on tryin' to reach you
But I can't get through
Our communication must get through

Communication
(Baby talk to me)
Communication
(Information please)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Communication
(Don't hang up)
Communication
(Keep in touch)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Communication
(Baby talk to me)
Communication
(Information please)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Communication
(Baby, don't hang up)
Communication
(Keep in touch)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Communication
(Baby, talk to me)
Communication
(Information please)

Communication
(Don't put me on hold)
Situation
(Soul to soul)

Communication
(Don't hang up)


2.Get It On

GET IT ON
Power Station

Well you're dirty and sweet
Clad in black
Don't look back
And I love you
You're dirty and sweet oh yeah

Well you're slim and you're weak
You got the teeth
Of the hydra upon you
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl

Get it on
Bang a gong
Get it on
Get it on
Bang a gong
Get it on

Well you're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a truck oh my

You're an untamed youth
That's the truth
With your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl

Get it on
Bang a gong
Get it on
Get it on
Bang a gong
Get it on

Well you're windy and wild
You got the blues
I'm your shoes and your stockings
You're windy and wild oh yeah

You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl
(Repeat Chorus)

Get it on
Bang a gong


3.Murderess

Lyricist:Robert Allan Palmer, Andy Taylor, John Taylor

She says your money's safe
You needn't keep your head down
Who's kidding who?
Her picture's all over town

I always knew that she was on the run
I read the paper and it said so
I know you like them to be troublesome
Take it to the maximum

She's a murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular
Murderess, murderer
That woman of yours is a killer

I heard his breath escape
She left the gun on the floor
He left his key with me
I hadn't been there before

I always knew that she was on the run
I read the paper and it said so
I know you like them to be troublesome
Take it to the maximum

She's a murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular
Murderess, murderer
That woman of yours is a killer

She says she's innocent
She says she's your baby face
Who's kidding who?
Your things are in a suitcase

I always knew that she was on the run
I read the paper and it said so
I know you like them to be troublesome
Take it to the maximum

She's a murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular
Murderess, murderer
That woman of yours is a killer

She's a murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular
Murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular

Murderess, murderer
She likes to go for the jugular
Murderess, murderer
That woman of yours is a killer


4.Go To Zero

Lyricist:Robert Allan Palmer, Guy Pratt

Hey, hey, on your marks, get set, go to zero
Present and correct, go to zero
North, South, East and West, go to zero
Nothing is the best, go to zero

I do this and I do that
And when it's cold, I wear a hat
It's mostly cold
It pays to advertise, they say
I'll keep my hat on anyway
Or so I'm told

When you're on patrol, go to zero
By remote control, go to zero
Forward, pause, return, go to zero
All roads lead astern, go to zero

I do this and I do that
And when it's cold, I wear a hat
It's mostly cold
It pays to advertise, they say
I'll keep my hat on anyway
Or so I'm told

When you miss your cue, go to zero
Start the dance anew, go to zero
Black, red, white and blue, go to zero

When you lose the one, go to zero
Rewind can be fun, go to zero
Nudge it left and right, go to zero
Don't wait 'til tonight, go to zero, go to zero

I do this and I do that
And when it's cold, I wear a hat
It's mostly cold
It pays to advertise, they say
I'll keep my hat on anyway
Or so I'm told, go to zero

Everywhere you go, go to zero
Nought is apropos, go to zero
North, South, East and West, go to zero
Nothing is the best, go to zero


5.Lonely Tonight

Lyricist:Bernard Edwards, Robert Allan Palmer

Lonely tonight, lonely tonight
Lonely tonight, honey, lonely tonight
Lonely tonight, lonely tonight
Lonely tonight, honey, lonely tonight, girl

We're enchanted, struck by lightning
What can we do when the feeling's so exciting?
We just ran into each other
And now we can't refuse 'cause the night is so inviting

You sure took me by surprise, I ain't fooling
Everything is synchronized in a movement
When I met you, I knew there was a reason
Every moment that we've shared guarantees it

We, we won't be lonely tonight
Must be miles ago since we first said hello
We won't let us out of our sights
Passion has to grow, darling, because we know

Riding our tide, luck is with us
We'll run the risk when we get so much to give us
A fate's on our side and it's our moment
We're getting warm 'cause we give each other shivers

Yeah, let's keep the fire alight
Nothing can go wrong, we're together from now on
Oh, all the love we excite
Loneliness has gone, did it take us so long?

Can't remember life without your music
Oh, there never was a doubt, don't we prove it?
You sure took me by surprise, I ain't fooling
Everything is synchronized in a movement, yeah

Now, we're enchanted, struck by lightning
What can we do when the feeling's so exciting?
We just ran into each other
And now we can't refuse 'cause the night is so inviting

We won't be lonely tonight
Must be miles ago since we first said hello
And we won't let us out of our sights
Passion has to grow, darling, because we know

Yeah, let's keep the fire alight
Nothing can go wrong, we're together from now on
Oh, all the love we excite
Loneliness has gone, did it take us so long?


6.Harvest For The World

Lyricist:Ernie Isley, Marvin Isley, O'kelly Isley, Ronald Isley,
Rudolph Isley, Christopher Jasper

All babies together, everyone a seed
Half of us are satisfied, the other half in need
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

A nations planted so concerned with gain
As the seasons come and go, we won't wait in vain
Far too many feeling the strain
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

Harvest, harvest
Harvest, harvest
Harvest, harvest
Harvest, harvest

Dress me up for battle when all I want is peace
Those of us who pay the price and come home with the least
And nation after nation turning into beast
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?

When will there be a harvest
When will there be a harvest
When will there be a harvest
...


7.Some Like It Hot

Lyricist:Robert Allan Palmer, Andy Taylor, John Taylor

We want to multiply, are you gonna do it
I know you're qualified, are you gonna do it
Don't be so circumscribed, are you gonna do it
Just get yourself untied, are you gonna do it

Feel the heat pushing you to decide
Feel the heat burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the heat 'til we fry

The girl is at your side, are you gonna do it
She wants to be your bride, are you gonna do it
She wants to multiply, are you gonna do it
I know you won't be satisfied until you do it

Feel the heat pushing you to decide
Feel the heat burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the heat 'til we fry

Feel the heat pushing you to decide
Feel the heat burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so let's turn up the heat 'til we fry

Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot
Some like it hot, some like it hot


8.Still In Your Heart

Lyricist:Robert Allan Palmer, Andy Taylor, John Taylor

The night you met, it was a magic start
All the connections were made in your heart
Following you everywhere, you could feel her eyes
A glimpse of somebody takes you by surprise

Another place and day, now where's she gone?
You can't forget her face or things you left undone
Re-run memories from the start, the time has flown
All the time you've been apart and she's still in your heart

Try as you might the recollections stay
Like a photographic memory of each day
You can feel her by your side in an empty room
And words like forever you spoke too soon

Another place and day, now where's she gone
You can't forget her face or things you wish you'd done
Re-run memories from the start, the time has flown
Where's the ending and the start? Is she's still in your heart?
She's still in your heart
