Have you changed your world
You changed your view
Cause what you see
Is black and blue
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a New York night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said "hey there honey do you like what you see"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues
We sleep at night
On a bed of nails
All I know
Baby's got some thrills
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a New York night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said "hey there honey do you like what you see"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues

Words and Music by Rick Nielsen, Robin Zander and Tom Petersson

Hush little darling, don't you cry.
Daddy's coming home, coming home tonight.
No bed of roses for your head, for you.
You see no future, it's all in the past.
This is a nightmare, won't be your last.
It's hard to admit, it's hard to admit you're that blind.

Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye.
Mommy and Daddy don't see when we cry.
Mommy and Daddy they don't understand.
What's wrong with this picture, is right in their hands.

Sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Woke up with a monster. Ah.
Sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Woke up with a monster. Ah.

Hush little darling, don't be long.
Momma's little angel can't do nothing wrong.
No bed of roses in your head, for you.
Who'll dry your tear when you cry?
Daddy's comin' home just in time.
Will, he be the one to make it, to help make it right?

Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye.
Mommy and Daddy make each other cry.

Sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Woke up with a monster. Ah.
Sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Woke up with a monster. Ah.

Not sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Not sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye.
Mommy and Daddy don't hear when we cry.

Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye.
Mommy and Daddy don't see when we cry.
Mommy and Daddy they don't understand.
What's wrong with this picture, is right in their hands.

Sleeping with an angel. Ah.
Woke up with a monster. Ah.

(Repeat 2X)

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, ow.

. . .



I just want to see
What it is to be
Caught in your eyes
I wish you'd talk to me
I'm not cut out to be the one lonely child
I always wanted a younger sister
One who'd always be drawn to me
I'm going crazy tonight
I'm going crazy tonight

'Cos you're all I wanna do anytime
Baby you're all I wanna do with my time
Baby you're all I wanna do anytime
Baby you're all I want
You're all I really wanna do

When you stay next to me
It's not so hard to see
What's burning my eyes
It's always hard to see
When you're cut out be the one lonely child
I look at you and your younger sister
There's always something that smile on you
I know you're crazy tonight
I know you're crazy tonight

'Cos you're all I wanna do anytime
Baby you're all I wanna do with my time
Baby you're all I wanna do anytime
Baby you're all I want
You're all I really wanna do

I'll do you in the morning
Do you up right
Don't wanna stop
'Til the middle of the night
Every single minute
Baby while I'm thinking of you
(Anytime) I've got a thing about you
(Anytime) I can't live without you
Why why why why

You're all I wanna do anytime, baby.
You're all I wanna do with my time, baby.
You're all I wanna do anytime, baby.
You're all I want
You're all I really wanna do

Baby baby baby you're all I need
Maybe baby baby I'll be thinking of you
'Cos you're all I wanna do
You're all I wanna do
You're all I wanna do
You're all I wanna do
You're all I wanna do
You're all I wanna do

I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love

Midnight, don't seem right
I lie awake just a-wonderin' about you
Wound up much too tight
Can't think about livin' without you
The day you put your spell on me
I guess I was the last to know
So please remember before you go

That I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love
I will never run out of love for you
Got more than enough, more than enough
No I will never run out of love

For so long, deep and strong
Love flowed mighty as a river
Long road, heavy load
Hard times couldn't keep us apart
Never thought you would
Break the promise, oh no
Now it seems there's a part of me
That just can't let you go
So please remember
That you can come back home

‘Cause I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love
I will never run out of love for you
Got more than enough, more than enough
No I will never run out of love

No, no baby, don't you leave me no
No, no baby, don't go
No, no baby, if you run away
I still hope you know
I need you so
I can't take no more

I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love
I will never run out of love for you
Got more than enough, more than enough
No I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love for you

No, I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love
I will never run out of love for you
Got more than enough, more than enough
No, I will never run out of love for you
Oh baby please, don't go
No, I'll never run out of love for you

I'll never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love
I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out, never run out
No I will never run out of love for you
I'll never run out of love for you

. . .


It was so easy that I started thinkin' somethin' had to change.
The gift of love was somethin' that I thought I'd go out and exchange.
I didn't realize how much you meant to me.
And now you're locked up with a brand new set of keys.
You said I might regret the day I let you go,
I'd wind up stranded like a washed up gigolo.
I'd get more static than a broken radio.
You were the right one all along...ooh.

'Cause I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.
I've been holdin' everything except for love,
I wish I had you back today.
Oh, I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.

Each day my hindsight just gets better, but I know that love is blind.
(Love is blind)
You were the only ray of sunshine I was ever gonna find.
(Gonna find)
You were the magic and I made you disappear.
Now I'd give everything I own to have you here.
You told me I was gonna make a big mistake,
I didn't know how many times my heart could break.
Now in the middle of the night, I'm still awake.
And all I can think of is you...ooh, ooh, ooh.

'Cause I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.
I've been holdin' everything except for love,
I wish I had you back today.
'Cause I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.

Now I know in my heart, I threw it away.
I've been holdin' onto everything except for love,
I wish I had you back today.
'Cause I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away...hey, hey.

SOLO

You said that I'd regret the day I let you go.
(Day I let you go)
I'd wind up stranded like some washed up gigolo.
(Washed up gigolo)
I'd get more static than a broken radio.
You were the right one all along...ooh, ooh, ooh.

'Cause I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.
I've been holdin' everything except for love,
I wish I had you back today.
'Cause, I didn't know I had it,
'Til I threw it away.
No, I didn't know I had it...
'Til I threw it away.

Come to me, I'm your boogie man
Come to me, let me take your hand
Smile, you waited for some floor
Come to me, understand
Baby, don't you want some more
I've got what you need, what you're dyin' for

Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk

Dance with me, I'm the rhythm king
Dance with me, and shake that thing
Babe, I feel like I could die
‘Cause I've never been so high, higher than the sky

Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Ride the pony, yeah, satisfy your funk

Move a little closer
What's holding that thing together
Let me scoot between your thighs
Got a pistol in my pocket
Just waiting for you, hey

Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
You got to ride the pony, yeah, satisfy your funk

Dance with me, I'm the rhythm king
Dance with me, I'll do most anything

Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, yeah, ride the pony

Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, yeah, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Yeah, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Yeah you got to ride the pony
Satisfy your funk
Ride the pony

All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

You can drink my whiskey, get high all night;
Play my guitar, well, that's all right.
Give you my money, never get it back.
Take what you want as a matter of fact.
You can have anything, anything except...
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where I draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Promise her cocaine, reds, whites and blues.
If I catch you doing that shit,
I know you're gonna lose.
Like a copy cat killer lacks originality.
Yeah, a lousy Cliff Irving tryin' to plagiarize me.

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where I draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Well, one of these days, and it won't be long.
Ain't the same old line from a rock- 'n' -roll song.
If Long Tall Sally ever talked like that,
You can take what you want as a matter of fact.
You can have ev'rything, anything except...

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where I draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Don't try, steal my girlfriends.
Oo, I love her a lot, yeah, yeah, yeah

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
It's all that I've got.
It's all that I've got.
It's all that I've got, oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
Don't try, steal my girlfriends.

Heads down, buried in the sand
She's back now, I better wash my hands
She talks like a man gettin' higher than I can
Lovin' me when I'm in a rock band
Let her go

She's living in shadows
Waits there in the shadows tonight
And sleeps on a bed of nails
Let her go

Close the window, it's time to shut the door
Say a prayer now, and get down on the floor
There's a howling wind blowing through my brain
Moving in slow, just like the hurricane
Let her go

She's living in shadows
Waits there in the shadows tonight
And sleeps on a bed of nails
Let her go
Oh let her go
Yeah, let her go
Let her go

She can't fall in love
Her heart's cold as ice now
Let her go

She can't cry for love
There's no tears left inside for one to show
Let her go

She waits in the shadows tonight
And sleeps on a bed of nails
Let her go

She's living in shadows
Waits there in the shadows tonight
And sleeps on a bed of nails
Let her go
Yeah let her go
Yeah let her go
Let her go

If I could have what I want I'll just want what I've got
I told myself a million times that's the truth but it's not.
I could give you some lessons on how to cry all night
I know the hurting's only started and it might never stop

[Oh Angeline] you want some help from me now
Now since he left you alone.
Don't say it ain't so, 'cause you traded me for him
Not so long ago

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything.

So pardon me if I don't cry 'cause your love is on the shelf
After all, you're so good at looking out for yourself
You might hate me for saying so but that's all right
You can hate the whole world but it ain't gonna help.

[Oh, Angeline] you're only wasting your time
Looking for my sympathy
I hope you're satisfied ' cause I only wanna laugh
When I hear you cry

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
Now he's done it to you
Like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything

I guess you never thought that you'd be falling in love
You've lost everything that you're dreaming of
I can't let you go without letting you know

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything

Baby tell me everything (everything to me)
Baby tell me everything
Someone did it to you like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything.

Some girls are so fine, sister sister
Don't wanna change your mind but
Some girls run home so optimistic
About the love in their lives

See the girls on parade
In high-fashion magazines
And like some x-rated movie
Oh, that fashion on the screen
Enough for everyone to see
I know that she's not ever going back again

Well some girls you meet and
Then you kissed her and she taste so sweet
This girl, you find out, looks like her sister
Yeah she's been coming around
I see her backfield's in motion
She puts me under her spell
She's got some weird magic potion
Some concrete cloud over you
And I know it's burnin' hell
I know that she's not ever going back again
You see one, she's coming with her new-found friend

Oh love me for a minute, stay with me tonight
Take me in your arms and hold me
I'll show you what it's like on the other side of love
Take me in your arms and hold me

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And she's not ever going back again
You see one, she's coming with her new-found friend

Oh love me for a minute, stay with me tonight
Take me in your arms and hold me
I'll show you what it's like on the other side of love
Take me in your arms and hold me
Oh love me for a minute, stay with me tonight
Take me in your arms and hold me
I'll show you what it's like on the other side of love
Take me in your arms and hold me
Oh bye, bye, bye, bye baby bye bye
I wanna be your lover, baby
Bye, bye, bye, bye baby bye bye
I love you like I own you, baby
