Golden Earring : Something Heavy Going Down
Teksty
1. LONG BLOND ANIMAL
Get out of my parlour, won't you
Get out of my life
Put on that crazy raincoat
You're gonna need it tonight
Get out of my parlour
For I cut you with a knife
Don't want your disease
Don't need your silly jive
I was an innocent by-stander
I was middle of the roadman for you
Then you took me for a ride, now baby
Showed me all the things you could do
I always listen to the good looking lady
A mistake I won't make no more
'Cause you might be a good-looking lady
You're rotten to the core
You're all fucked up
I've been under your influence
Under your spell too long
Now people keep me at a distance
Everything I do is wrong
My brain's disintegrating
Devil's singing my song
This cannot continue
This cannot go on
You're nothing but a long blond animal
2. TWILIGHT ZONE
Somewhere in a lonely hotel room,
There's a guy starting to realize
That eternal fate has turned its back on him,
It's two a.m
It's two a.m., the fear has gone
I'm sittin' here waitin', the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
I'm wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
I cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know,
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
A double-crossed messenger, all alone
I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
3. WHEN THE LADY SMILES
When the lady smiles,
You know it drives me wild
Her lips are warm and resourceful
When her fingertips,
Go drawing circles in the night
Then the mood is soft and sensual, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
It's the answer to all my dreams
Every time it feels like the earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin',
I hear it shatter,
Maybe it's raining, faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm a bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at me
And I'm feelin' proud
When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact,
She could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'Cos I'm walking on clouds
And she is leadin' the way
My friends tell me,
She's the beast inside your paradise
I guess you've heard it all before
A fallen angel,
That has got you hypnotized
And that always needs some more, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
She's done nothin' to mislead me
'Cos every time we meet,
The earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin'
I hear it shatter , maybe it's rainin'
Faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at mea
Nd I'm feeling proud
When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact, she could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'Cos we're walkin' on clouds
And she is leadin' the way
Oh no, oh no, oh nooooo......
4. FUTURE
You better get out of the line of fire
If you wanna stay alive
I always knew it would take a liar
In this brave new world to survive
It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past
Rule and divide and control the seven seas
Your power and pride guarantee defeat
So fine, your lips on mine light a dangerous flame
When love grows in exile, it'll find you back again
They shot you down on the steps of a white house
Climbin' out to rescue me
They said you made a giant step for mankind
And the plate's still empty, "c'est la vie"
It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past
5. SOMETHING HEAVY GOING DOWN
On the streets that go by number
Still can't figure out how to get home
There is no life lines, only dead lines
Sure picked a fine time to be born
First you taste it then you're wasted
By the time you're almost 16 years old
Everything used to be so simple
Like the beating of a heart
Dedicated to my little darling
Right until the day we'd part
There's a fist on the door
I can hear it knocking
Gotta check it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
There's something heavy going down
And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down
On a midnight operation
When the searchlights make your skin crawl
My reaction to the action is
I don't wanna be doing this at all
Breaking rules that are made in schools
That teach you how to be successful
Used to be oh so simple
Like the beating of a heart
Dedicated to my little darling
Right until the day we'd part
There's fist on the door I can hear it knocking
Gotta check it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
There's something heavy going down
And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down
Something heavy going down
There's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down,
Something heavy going down
There's more to it than a rocket and a bomb
There's something going down,
Something heavy going down
And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down, down, down, down yeah
Something heavy going down
6. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Well, it's long ago, I ran into you
A pair of lonely eyes and a pair of broken hearted shoes
And then the other night, you were as cold as snow
You kept your blue jeans on and I never heard you leavin' the room
Woke up half past noon, I was alone in bed
I could still smell your perfume
Drifting through the smoke signals of your black cigarettes
You gotta hold on me, straight to the bedroom
When my nerves went cracking down in my knees
Enough, enough is enough
If it's love, nothing's tougher than love
Written on my shaving mirror, in lipstick blood colour
Amigo, leave it alone. You gotta leave it alone
Pick up the telephone, start investigating
You know that Cuban girl, with the Castro impersonation
I've been checking around, with the revolutionary
All I have is a mirror with a message and a memory
You'll never understand, what comes over me
When I read the lines, written on the face I see
Tell her please,
If it's love, I wanna know where she hides that love
Enough, is never enough
Nothing can stop me now
No one can stop me now
I can't leave it alone, I can't leave it alone
I can't leave it alone, I can't leave it alone
No, no, no
7. MISION IMPOSSIBLE
He drove his car into the city
The engine hot, the heat was on
He realized, he'd come to a crossroad
And there's only one way he knows
They're not gonna get me, they're not gonna get me
And I'm never gonna be betrayed no more
He was back and someone had to pay
For the time that he had done
When diamonds shine on pretty ladies
Stool-pigeon is always around
They're not gonna get me, they're not gonna get me
And I'm never gonna be betrayed no more
Step into my boots and see if you can make it
Take my chain and see if you can break it, break it
Mission impossible
Chased by a law invincible
I don't mind, I don't care
I'm used to fighting my way back
Unaware of a mission impossible
It was a fact that he was smarter than the others
Still controlled his part of town
It was an eye for an eye in the shadows
Looking down the barrel of a gun
8. RADAR LOVE
I've been drivin' all night,
My hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head
That drives my heel
It's my baby callin',
Says: I need you here
And it's a half past four
And I'm shifting gear
When she is lonely
And the longing gets too much
She sends a cable
Coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a wave in the air,
Radar Love
The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
The road has got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise
When I get lonely,
And I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort,
Comin' in from above
Don't need a letter at all
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky,
Radar Love
No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
One more radar love is gone
When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, coming in from above
We don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a thing that's called,
Radar Love
9. CLEAR NIGHT MOONLIGHT
I wanna go ahead until I just run out of gas
We gotta beat the road with four-wheel thunder
There's a Cadillac dealer in Kansas City counting money
And the highway patrol ain't going nowhere
Don't say no, don't say no, don't make me grieve
Don't say no, don't say no, you gotta feel the breeze
On a clear night yeah, moonlight yeah
You and me and the car
Under a thousands stars
Clear night yeah, moonlight yeah
That's all the magic we need
So, don't you go turnin' my dream into a nightmare
Come on honey, let's ride right out of here
Imagine you and I, leavin' it all behind
Find another world, beyond the turnpike
There'll be lots of people uptight
Maybe some FBI, and your daddy screamin' bloody murder
Don't say no, don't say no, don't make me grieve
Don't say no, don't say no, you gotta feel the breeze
On a clear night yeah, moonlight yeah
You and me and the car
Under a thousands stars
Clear night yeah, moonlight yeah
That's all the magic we need
So, don't you go turnin' my dream into a nightmare
Come on honey, let's ride right out of here
Picture the two of us, we're so happy, so much in love
You know how the story goes
At the end of the rainbow
There's a bag of gold
