1. 10538 OUVERTURE
Did you see your friend, crying from his eyes today?
Did you see him run through the streets and far way?
Did you see him run? Did you see him fall?
Did his life flash by on the bedroom door?
Did you hear the news came across the air today?
Someone has been found on the rocks down in the bay.
Did you see him hide? Did you see him crawl?
Does his life mean more than it did before.
Did you see that man running through the streets today?
Did you catch his face, was it 10538?
2. KUIAMA
My my Kuiama, she came in the morning,
She smiled but the tears on her little face
Showed the pain that had been in that far off place,
So sad, treated so bad.
My my Kuiama, don´t break your heart tryin,
To say how your Ma and your Pa passed away,
And they left you to wander the ruin and decay,
Real mean, that bullet machine.
See here Kuiama, now ten thousand miles,
Is a long way and you´re here today,
And you won´t go back so you might say hello,
How do you do.
Kuia stop your cryin, there´s no bombs a´fallin,
No horsemen in the night a´ridin through your dreams,
Ansd tearing at your life, baby goodnight.
No more silver rain will hit your ground,
And no more guns will sound and no more life be drowned.
No more trenchies where the soldiers lie and,
No more people die, beneath that big black sky.
Wake up Kuiama, I got somethin to tell you,
It´s just that I mean, well that is to say,
That I´m trying to explain but I´ll start again for you,
I must be true.
Kuia in this country, they got rules with no reason,
They teach you to kill and they send you away
With your gun in your hand you pick up your pay,
So cool, that no mercy tool.
Kuia please believe me, I just couln´t help myself,
I wanted to run but they gave me a gun
And they told me the duty I owed to my fatherland,
I made my stand.
Kuia I just shot them, I just blew their heads open,
And I heard them scream in their agony,
Kuiama she waits there for me,
True blue, you saw it through.
3. ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN
Gonna write a little letter gonna mail it to me local D.J.
It's a jumpin little record I want my jockey to play
Roll Over Beethoven, gotta hear it again today
My temperature's risin, the juke box's blowin a fuse
My heart's beatin a rhythm, singin out rhythm and blues
Roll Over Beethoven, they're rockin in two by two
Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news
Early in the mornin I'm a givin you the warnin,
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey diddle diddle gonna play my fiddle,
I ain't got nothing to lose
Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news
She wiggles like a glow-worm, dances like a spinning top
She got a crazy partner, you should have seen her reel and rock
Long as she got a dime, the music will never stop
Well if you feel you like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues?
4. SHOWDOWN
She cried to the Southern wind
About a love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
Heading for a showdown.
Bad dreamer, what's your name?
Looks like we're riding on the same train
Looks as though there'll be more pain
There's gonna be a showdown.
(Chorus)
And it's raining, all over the world
Raining, all over the world
Tonight, the longest night.
She came to me like a friend
She blew in on the Southern wind
Now my heart is turned to stone again
There's gonna be a showdown.
Save me, oh save me
It's unreal, the suffering
There's gonna be a showdown.
(Chorus)
(Raining, raining ... raining, raining)
Raining, all over the world
Raining, all over the world
The longest night.
(Chorus)
You gotta save me, girl
Well, I'm ready for saving
I'm a fool for you
Ya know I'm ready, come on and save me
Can't you feel what you're doing to me, now?
I'm on the run again.
Gotta save me... (fade)
5. MA-MA-MA BELLE
Got love, if that's what you need
I got three or four babies sittin' on my knee
I got love waitin' for you
I come sneakin' round the corner of the avenue
(Chorus)
You gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, or I will get you
You know you gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, before I get you
There's one thing that's on my mind
And that's getting hold of you before I serve my time
I'll keep on, with my heavy load
Till I see you come a strollin' down that open road
(Chorus)
I love you Ma-Ma-Ma Belle
That's why I want to get it all well I'm sure you can tell
I got, good soul, runnin' so deep
Gonna get you in the corner so that I can keep
Can't you hear me once Ma-Ma-Ma Belle
(Chorus)
6. CAN'T GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD
Midnight, on the water
I saw the ocean's daughter
Walking on a wave's chicane
Staring as she called my name
(Chorus)
And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my old world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head
Breakdown on the shoreline
Can't move, it's an ebbtide
Morning, don't get here tonight
Searching for her silver light
(Chorus)
Bank job in the city
Robin Hood and William Tell
And Ivanhoe and Lancelot
They don't envy me
Sitting 'til the sun goes down
In dreams the world keeps going 'round and 'round
(Chorus)
7. BOY BLUE
Hey Boy Blue, can't you hear all the noise.
It's for you, all the town's waiting there.
Let us go, there's a show like you ain't seen before
Welcome home, where you been all these years,
Look around, all the crowd is in tears,
It's so good to see you in the streets of your town.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
I've seen bold knights, dropping down like flies,
I've seen kings, rolling in the mire,
I've seen God, point the finger of doom to our foes.
I have fought in the holiest wars,
I have smashed, some of the holiest jaws
I've been jailed, been impaled, and been dragged through the world.
One thing, I have learned through these years,
Is that no man, should be strickenwith fear
It should be that he walks with no care in the world.
So my friends, who are gathered here today,
Hear this clear, for I'll not further say,
That no man, shall cause me to take up arms again.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
Hey Boy Blue is back.
8. EVIL WOMAN
You made a fool of me,
But them broken dreams have got to end.
Hey, woman, you got the blues,
'Cause you ain't got no one else to use.
There's an open road that leads nowhere,
So just make some miles between here and there.
There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in.
You took my body and played to win.
Ha, ha, woman, it's a cryin' shame,
But you ain't got nobody else to blame.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Rolled in from another town,
Hit some gold, too hard to settle down.
But a fool and his money soon go sep'rate ways,
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze.
Ha, ha, woman, what you gonna do,
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you.
It's so good that you're feelin' pain,
But you better get your face on board the very next train.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman, how you done me wrong,
But now you're tryin' to wail a diff'rent song.
Ha, ha, funny, how you broke me up.
You made the wine, now you drink a cup.
I came runnin' ev'ry time you cried,
Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes.
Ha, ha, very nice to know
That you ain't got no place left to go.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
9. STRANGE MAGIC
You're sailing softly through the sun
In a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind,
Making waves across my time,
Oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
Oh, I'm never gonna be the same again,
Now I've seen the way it's got to end,
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
It's magic, it's magic, it's magic.
Strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic.
Got a strange magic
You know I got a strange magic
