1. FOREVER MORE

Why say anything if it doesn't mean nothing at all
If everything you do there's something in it
For you or you won't do it at all
Stay away
'Cause i'm all about givin' a helping hand
Talk about love every chance i can
Please don't misunderstand me
'Cause i'm all about givin' the dog a bone
Come on everybody let's get it on
Come on let's get it on

All that i believe is what i'm fighting for
And i will always be this way forever more
If i stand alone i'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever

Yes i know exactly how the story goes
It was all meant to be
But there's just too much crazy shit going on
What is wrong with me
You can call me anything you want cause i don't wanna be
Just another one repeating history
Please don't misunderstand me
All i do is listen to my heart as it talks to me
Doing as i wish, ah just let it bleed, let it bleed?

All that i believe is what i'm fighting for
And i will always be this way forever more
If i stand alone i'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever

If i only i could change, it's too late
Or maybe rearrange my mind, it's too late
If only i could cha-a-a-a-a-a-a-ange

All that i believe is what i'm fighting for
And i will always be this way forever more
If i stand alone i'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever

'cause all that i believe is what i'm fighting for
And i will always be this way forever more
If i stand alone i'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever more


2. I WANNA LIVE

What I want.....
Is what I need
Is everything that I'm 'suppose to be
Have my hopes....
I Got my dreams

They hold me down!
They tell me lies!
Do I listen ? I don't even try!
Listen at! The world's a stage...

Just one shot at it is all I need

I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
There's so much more I wanna try
I wanna live

I wanna live before I die....

I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by

3. MODERN DAY COWBOY

Stormy night under jet black skies Billy pulls into town
Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts
Come crashin' to the ground
Cold as ice, heart of stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way,
All hell is breakin' loose

[Chorus]
Bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land,
For the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round,
'Cos the cowboy'll blow you away

Al Capone and bad boy jones on the wrong side of the law
Johnny Dee and his company, always first to the draw,
Fataly fa ta ly
tryin take my Billy's share
'Cos all they saw was ruin it all
The scent of blood was in the air

[Chorus]

So here we are and we've come this far
But it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with terrorist demands only cause is to hurt
The USA the USSR with their six guns to their sides
I see their message written on the wall
Too much anger deep inside

[Chorus]

It's a showdown, yeah yeah yeah, ohh


4. HEAVEN'S TRAIL

You know I'm on a slick trip, I'm always ready to kick ass
Up on the stage I'm in a rage,
I'm havin' the time of my life
Yes, indeed, what a sweet, sweet life it is

Until some loco two-bit floosie with a Louie Le-Strange
Ain't good for nothin' but trouble
They're just two fools livin' up to their names
And now it's startin' to rain on my parade

You know there's nothin' like the real world to get me down
There's nothin' like the world outside
That turns me upside down
It makes me feel like I'm headin' down a one-way, dead-end street

[Chorus]
There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell, livin' hell

You know I had it made in the shade, thinkin'
That it's not so bad after all
That's when I woke up, smelled the coffee,
I'm back where I started again, yes
And now it's pourin' rain on my parade

No there's nothin' like the real world to get me down, no
One is there to lift you up, one to drag you down
Now, don't you see that we're heading down a one-way,
Dead-end street

[Chorus]

There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell
I guess I'll live in hell

[Chorus]

Yes, it's a beautiful thing
You know, I'm on a slick trip,
I'm always ready to kick ass


5. WHAT A SHAME

Did you think it wouldn't show, you're here with me,
But I'm so alone
And now this house don't feel like home,
I can't believe how much we've grown
So far apart, so far away,
You just can't hide something as plain as day
I think it's safe to say,
That's it's just no good

And I don't need you in my life,
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done,
You'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done,
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed,
And what a shame

I know you think you're always right, and just because,
You've got God in your life
But he don't appreciate the way you lied,
He can't believe how hard you tried
To take me down, to take it all,
Hanging around, and making sure I fall
Then say it was me to blame, and I was,
For trusting someone like you anyways

And I don't need you in my life,
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done,
You'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done,
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over,
You haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done,
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over,
You haven't changed, and what a shame

And I don't need you in my life,
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done,
You'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done,
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over,
You haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done,
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over,
You haven't changed, and what a shame


6. SHINE AWAY

All is well, as it could ever be
All is well, as it could ever be

All is well, as it could ever be
All is well, as it could ever, it could ask for
Me, I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would
But I said that a thousand times
Said the same in the letters that I wrote to you
Guess you thought it's that same old line

Ooh I know, but the rest of my soul
It don't ever need a reason why
Told myself I'd get over it and over you,
Never will till the day I die

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute
I got you right here in my heart
It's only human, it's only natural, it's love or animal
There you are, so far away, but instead
I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and
I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way, don't you shine my way

Now that it's over, I ask myself the reason why
That (was in the time with you on my mind)
Told myself I'd forget about, forget you
Now it's changed it don't feel so right

Ooh I know, but the rest of my soul
It don't ever need a reason why
Love you so and always will, love to love you even still
Now there you are, so far away,
All the while I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and
I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way
Shine away, shine away,
I got somebody sittin' home, waitin' for me yeah
Shine away, shine away, you make it hard for somebody
Who don't want to play, and I want to play

I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would
But I said that ten thousand times
Said the same [if time don't make that call for you]
Guess you thought it's that same old line

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute
I got you right here in my heart
It's only human, it's only natural, it's love or animal
Now there you are, so far away,
All the while I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and
I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way
Shine away, shine away,
I got somebody sittin' home and waitin' for me
Shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away
Shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away

8. WHAT YOU GIVE

Who's the one that makes you happy?
Or maybe, who's the one always on your mind?
And who is the reason you're livin' for?
Who's the reason for your smile?

I feel so lonely, yet I know I'm not the only one
To ever feel this way.
I love ya so much that I think I'm goin' insane.
I'm goin' crazy, outta my head.
Goin' crazy, outta my head.
Can't think about nothin' but your good, good love,
And what you give.

Now, ev'ry one needs somebody.
And you know, ev'rybody needs someone.
Well, and a-yes it's true!
Ev'rybody needs a special kind of love,
And you're the only one I'm thinkin' of.
You mean the world to me.
You are my only!

I feel so lonely, yet I know I'm not the only one
To carry on this way.
I love ya so much I lose track-a time,
Lose track of the days.
I'm goin' outta my head,
Goin' crazy, outta my head.
Can't think about a-nothin' but your good, good love,
And what you give.

It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
It's only what you give, only what you give,
Only what you give,
It's not whatcha got, a-but the life you live.
It's the life you live.
Play it pretty for the world.

You're the one that makes me happy. Oh yeah baby.
And you're the one always on my mind. And a-yes it's true.
You are my reason, my one and only that I've been livin' for
Why can't forever be forever and nothin' more. (To Chorus)

It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
No, no, no, no, no!
It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
And it ain't what it's not, but a-what it is!

Only what you give, only what you give.
It's only what you give.
It's not whatcha got, a-but a-what you give.
It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
A-what you give woman.
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
It's only what you give, only what you give,
Only what you give,
It's not whatcha got, but a-what you give.
It's only what you give. Only what you give.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Only what you give. Only what you give.
Only what you give, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is that good enough for the girls we run around with?
I do believe so. Ooh, ooh, uh-huh.
Only what you give, what you give. Only what you give.
Only what you give.


9. THE WAY IT IS

Doesn't matter who gets the best of who,
Or who can hurt who the most, no
It never was meant for it to be that way,
Never should be that way at all

[Chorus]
The way it is, that's the way that it goes,
Happenin' day after day, yes
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the strangest ways

Even though we could never seem to work things out
I still love you just the same, I do
I miss your smile and that sparkle in your eyes
You're so beautiful, never change!

[Chorus]

What it is, and what it was, what shall be shall be, yeah
Sometimes it happens in the strangest ways
Sometimes it's hard to believe (do you believe?)
Do you believe, can you believe?

The way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways

Now it really don't matter who, who gets the best of who
It never did and it never will, no
It never was meant for it to be that way,
Why must it be that way at all?

The way it is, that's the way that it goes,
Happenin' day after day, yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways
That's the way it is, that's the way it is
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes, yeah

Yeah, that's the way it is, that's the way it goes
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes
I see it happen day after day, yeah, yeah
Now I'm workin' in the strangest ways
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Can you believe, do you believe?
Do you believe, can you believe?
That's the way it is, that's the way it is, yeah yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes, yes it do

Alright!


10. BREAKIN' FREE

I've had all I can take
The lyin' to my face
I'm tried of the abuse, all the excuses that you've made
There'll be no compromise
I've finally realized
It's time to cut the noose ,
I'm bustin' loose and start livin' my life....

I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free....

I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free.....

I'm done with swallowing my pride
And the truth in the end denied
You know it makes me sick how
You're so quick to always criticize
You never find fault in yourself
You're always blamin' someone else
When you know that it's you and it's true that were through, It's just a livin' hell....

I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free...

I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free....

Every time I start feelin' down,
I know it's time that I turned this around,
Every time I start thinking' what went wrong
I can't believe that it went so bad,
All the times that you drove me mad
I can't believe that I stayed with you so long.....

I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free...

I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free....


11. HANG TOUGH

Took a shot to the chin.
Looks like you just can't win
In this do or die situation.
And it's harder than it seems
To survive, keep alive and make your dreams,
Make your dreams all come true.

You gotta, you gotta give it your best shot.
Give it ev'rything you got.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough. Hang tough.

Sometimes love can make you blue.
A heartache made just for you.
But you can't let it bring ya down.
If you should stumble, if you should fall,
Pick yourself up off the floor.
Fight for what's right and stand your ground.

You gotta give it your best shot.
Give it ev'rything you got.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough. Hang tough.
When the goin' gets rough.
Hang tough. You got to give it all you've got.
Hang tough. Keep your head above the ground.
Don't you let it get you down.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hey! Oh! Hey! Oh!

You stay locked away inside your room
'Cause you don't know what this world is comin' to.
Hummingbird hums 'cause he don't know the words
And the piper will play 'cause he don't know what to say.
He's alot like you, yeah. Oh, he's alot like you, yeah.
He tries hard ev'ry day to be free and fly away. Yeah!

Hang tough, oh, when the goin' gets rough.
Hang tough. You've got to give it all you got.
Hang tough. Keep your head above the ground.
Don't you let it get you down.
Oh, you gotta hang tough.

Hang tough. Oh, you got to give it all you got. You gotta
Hang tough. Don't you let it get you down.
Hang tough. No! Oh, you gotta hang tough.
Hang tough.
Hang tough!


12. SO WHAT !

There's things that i've bought
And there's things I need
It's more than a thought,
You know you better believe
I feel it's not what you got,
But what your giving back means
So much
Lifes beautiful,
And life sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got

Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!

What if you got,
All of your dreams
But then what if it's not
Everything,
To you that you always thought
That it was gonna be
So What
Life's beautiful,
And life sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got

Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!


13. SIGNS

And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and
I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine outstanding young man,
I think you'll do
So I took off my hat, I said
"Imagine that, huh, me working for you"

[Chorus]
Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Fuckin' up the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

And the sign says
"Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house
Hey! What gives you the right!
To put up a fence and keep me out,
Or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here, he'd tell it to your face,
Man, you're some kind of sinner

[Chorus]

Oh, say now mister, can't you read
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat,
You ain't supposed to be here

And the sign says
"You got to have a membership card to get inside" - uh!

And the sign says
"Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and a paper and
I made up my own fuckin' sign
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me,
I'm alive and doing fine", oh

[Chorus](x2)

Yes! Some old song, called "Signs Signs",
I wish we did write that one, but
We didn't - wow!


14. LITTLE SUZIE

Little Suzi's on the up, looking for a get-away
Ruby tries to bring her down, she's lookin' for another way
Little Suzi's on the up, headin' for the spotlights
Ruby finally gets up, lookin' for some quiet night

[Chorus]
And the music makes her feel so hot
Ooh and she'll smile for the camera with all she's got
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up
Little Suzi's on the up, now suddenly it's not a game
Ruby's got to give up, 'cos Suzi's plainly set on pain
Little Suzi's on the up, cost in cost, your point is made
Ruby's gonna hang around, to make sure Suzi's okay

[Chorus]

Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up

[Chorus]

Don't you bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far when her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up, oh yes she is, ow!
Now she's on the up, little Suzi's on the up
Heading for the spotlight, oh little Suzi
Oh and the music makes her feel so hot, go little Suzi, yeah
Ohh, yeah yeah, oh yeah


15. INTO THE NOW

The future's on it's way, the past is gone
Old and rusted, with your busted bones
Break the crystal ball, you're on your own
Wipe away the fear of the unknown

Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now

Guilty of communication crimes
Was it just a binge, or was I blind
Overcoming opened up my mind
Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside

Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now

Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make
Is it love we're breaking, love we're making, or love just wasting time

Now, here we go, and it's on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
