SIDE A


1. X-OFFENDER

I saw you standing on the corner, you looked so big and fine.
I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled,
I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with.

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh.

We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh.

Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender.

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh.

My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there
With your badge and rubber boots.

I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with You.
And when I get out, there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive To you.


2. HANGING ON THE TELEPHONE

I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

Hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah oh oh oh run to me.


3. PICRURE THIS

All I want is a room with a view
A sight worth seeing, a vision of you
All I want is a room with view, oh-oh
I will give you my finest hour
The one I spent watching you shower
I will give you my finest hour, oh yeah.

All I want is a photo in my wallet
A small remembrance of something more solid
All I want is a picture of you.

Picture this - a day in December
Picture this - freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids
If it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only oh-oh
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you, oh yeah.

All I want is 20-20 vision
A total portrait with no omissions
All I want is a vision of you, oh-oh
If you can picture this - a day in December
Picture this - freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids
If it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only oh-oh
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you
Get a pocket computer
Try to do what you used to do yeah.


4. 11:59

Leaning in your corner like a candidate for wax
Sidewalk social scientist don't get no satisfaction from Your cigarette
It's ten to ten and time is running out
Lock up all your memories, get outa here, you know that we Can run
Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive.

Pumping like a fugitive in cover from the night
Take it down the freeway like a bullet to the ocean
Wait until the morning, take tomorrow by the hand
Take it down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can Run.

Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive.

Hanging on a frequency and burning like a fire
Boy you've got the motion down, it's getting late, I'm Tired and I've lost control
Don't leave me here, time is running out
Take me down the highway like a rocket to the ocean, we can Run.

Today can last another million years
Today could be the end of me
It's 11:59, and I want to stay alive.


5. PRETTY BABY

Stars live in the evening
But the very young need the sun, uh-huh
Pretty baby, you look so heavenly
A neo-nebular from under the sun
I was forming, some say I had my chance
The boys were falling like an avalanche.

Ya ya baby
La Dolce Vita is a magic dance
No-one was listening
Pretty baby, un petite ingenue
A teenage starlet, I fell in love with you.

You, you with the comb
You look OK in every way (every way)
Ah, I should have known
You'd look at me and look away (and look away - oh).

Pretty baby, you look so heavenly
A neo-nebular from under the sun
Eyes that tell me incense and peppermints
Your looks are larger than life, long live innocence
Petite ingenue, I fell in love with you
Pretty baby, I fell in love with you, whoah oh
Pretty baby, oh oh
Pretty baby, whoah oh, I fell in love with you.


6. TOUCHED...PRESENCE DEAR

Was it destiny
I don't know yet
Was it just by chance? Could this be Kismet?
Something in my consciousness told me you'd appear
Now I'm always touched by your presence dear
When we play at cards you use an extra sense (it's really Not cheating)
You can read my hand, I've got no defence
W.hen you sent your messages whispered loud and clear
I am always touched by your presence dear
Floating past the evidence of possibilities
We could navigate together, psychic frequencies
Coming into contact with outer entities
We could entertain each one with our theosophies.

Stay awake at night and count your R.E.M.'s when you're Talking with your super friends
Levitating lovers in the secret stratosphere
I am still in touch with your presence dear
I am still in touch with your presence dear
I am still in touch with your presence dear, dear, dear, Dear, dear.


7. SUNDAY GIRL

I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl.

Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I say awake all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me.

She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams Sunday girl.

Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Stay at home Sunday girl.

Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl.

When I saw you again in the summertime
If your love was as sweet as mine
I could be Sunday's girl.

Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I say awake all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
I got the blues.

To the pump, do the bump
Still on E, I'll think of something
I'm on E and I'm on E
I'll never have to stop my feet
