Suffragette City (bonus track)
. . .



Watching the wildlife on my way home
the state of Rome

People gliding on the floor

pleased with life not needing more.
Sunset on the river
people go home in the rain

Familar faces on the train
running scared and staying sane.

If you live by the sword
well
that's your own reward

So don't walk with me
watching the wildlife.
The beast within you eats your heart out

get free from hate and get in love.

Boys in the backyard
the girls are hanging out the lines

Washing day
wosh your troubles away

it's a game we hove to play.
Ghosts are chasing your round
things that happen in the past

Don't make that mistake again

the svn beats down the streets of passion.

If you live by the sword
well
that's your own reward
. . .
Your own worst enemy
get free from hate and get in love.

Watching the wildlife
we all live in a dreamin' home

you watch TV and drive a car
we go outside
but not too far.
Watching the wildlife
we walk the water like a sun.
Living cvts yau like a knife
living here watching the wildlife.
living here watching the wildlife.

Rage! rage! rage! rage!

Rage hard!

Laugh like the head of apollo
Young and strong on the wings of tomorrow
Rise up in millions get off your knees
Dispelling the demons
In the valley of danger
We all work together, sculptures in sorrow
With love light to follow, on
Sweet head of apollo

Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right, doing it right
Rage hard, against the dark
Rage hard, make your mark
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Strength to rise up, strength to win
Strength to save the wor(l)d from losing

Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right
Rage hard, against the dark
Rage hard

Rage!

Rage hard

Though blue eyes of children
They shine without fear
Hope is the future, with oceans of cheer
Nothing to fear
There's nothing to fear
Though laughter of angels resounding
From heaven keep fighting the favours
Of charlatan saviours, charlatan saviours

Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right, doing it right
Rage hard, against the dark
Rage hard, make your mark
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right
Rage hard, against the dark
Rage hard, make your mark

I don't know which way to go
My love's like driven snow
When we past the test of time
My love you shall be mine
And if only, lost and lonely
Is all that's wrong with me, we' ll be free
Be free, be free

Laugh like the head of apollo
Young and strong on the wings of tomorrow
Rage hard
Rage hard
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in

Rage hard, into the light
Rage hard, doing it right
Let the tournament begin
Don't give up and don't give in
Strength to rise up, strength to win
Strength to save the world from losing

This wasted land is gone now and
Swept away , swept away
Better not let the side down
Whirlwinds of time

We can build an ocean
Of hope despair to drown
Sail upon the waves a crashing
Devils to the ground
I'll follow you to fires of hell
And cast my soul in wishing wells
The colours of the sheddred sky
Hear the children sing

Kill the pain, we'll never be the same again
Once we have changed the nature of the game
Of the game
Breaks the chains we can rise up again
Once we've rearranged the nature of the game
Of the game

Don't you forget
What you give is what you get
Take love away there's nothing
Better not let the side down
So God on high has opened up the sky
Up the sky

We can build an ocean
Of hope despair to drown
Sail upon the waves a crashing
Devils to the ground
I'll follow you to fires of hell
And cast my soul in wishing wells
The colours of the sheddred sky
Hear the children sing

Kill the pain, we'll never be the same again
Once we have changed the nature of the game
Of the game
Break the chain we can rise up again
Once we've rearranged the nature of the game
Of the game

We're all walking through the fire
Walking on the nile
Let your spirit fly

This wasted land is gone now and
Swept away , swept away
Better not let the side down
Whirlwinds of time
Sing

We can build an ocean
Of hope despair to drown
Sail upon the waves a crashing
Devils to the ground
The legend of this dying land
The earth is acorched by devil's hand
This place we love can live again
We rise up and sing

Kill the pain, we'll never be the same again
Once we have changed the nature of the game
Of the game
Break the chaing we can rise up again
Once we've rearranged the nature of the game
Of the game



. . .



On glory day we'll get the gifts of heaven up above
All around you hope and joy, to find and fall in love

Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven

Feeling the wonder, of sun ,rain and thunder
Unravelling life's mysteries, living to make history
Free at last...

Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven

Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven

Can you feel it...

Let dreamers dream and lovers leap
I pray for you our souls to keep free at last...

Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven

Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven

I will catch and keep you like a rainbow in my room
And tie you to a star that's rising, dancing on the moon, on the moon

Can you feel it... maximum joy... maximum joy

Watching the wildlife
On my way home, the state of rome
People gliding on the floor
Pleased with life not needing more
Sunset on the river
People go home in the rain
Familiar faces on the train
Running scared, and staying sane

If you live by the sword
Well that's your own reward
So don't walk with me
Watching the wildlife
The beast within you
Eats your heart out
Get free from hate and get in love

Boys in the backyard
The girls are hanging out the lines
Washing the day, wash your troubles away
It's game we have to play
Ghosts are chasing you round
Things that happen in the past
Don't make that mistake again
The sun beats down the streets of passion

If you live by the sword
Well that's your own reward
So don't talk with me
Watching the wildlife
The beast within you
Eats your heart out
Get free from hate and get in love

Your own worst enemy
Get free from hate and get in love

If you live by the sword
Watching the wildlife
Watching you
The beast within you too
Watching the wildlife

Get in love, get in love

Watching the wildlife
We all live in a dream in home
We watch tv and drive a car
We go outside, but not too far
Watching the wildlife
We walk the water like a sun
Living cuts you like a knife
Living here watching the wildlife

Get in love, get in love



. . .



Walk right through my soul, keep out the cold
Make me lose control, fill me with love
My mind is blasing and were escaping, the real world
Swing and sway on lunar bay
On lunar bay, yeah

Touch my very soul, makes me lose control
My dreams unfold, you fill me with love

Feel me walking in the sun
Hear me talking to the moon
I won't change for anyone
I'm just for you

Touch my very soul, makes me lose control
My dreams unfold, fill me with love
The train of faces are going places, get on board
Swing and sway on lunar bay
On lunar bay , yeah

Swing and sway, swing and sway

Feel me walking in the sun
Hear me talking to the moon
I won't change for anyone
I'm just for you
When the wind rushes in
To hemald the king
Just stay in my heart
Forever more

Feel me walking in the sun
I won't change for anyone
When the wind rushes in
To hemald the king
Just stay in my heart
Forever more

In the sun
I won't change for anyone

In the common age of automation, where people might
Eventually work ten or twenty hours a week, man for
The first time will be forced to confront himself with
The true spiritual problems of living



. . .



Leave them behind, those clouds of trouble
We have to find a world that's new
Buy a new dress and go out dancing
Do all the things you wanna do
For heaven's sake, you have to break away
Unchain yourself, from the mood of today

We don't need aggression
We don't need recession

Just give us some money
Our life could be sunny too

We don't need regression
Nor means of repression
Our life could be sunny too ,ooh

Our lives should be so full of laughter
With endless joy to follow after
Summer comes to girls and boys
Never too late, but to enjoy, to enjoy

Oh come on down from your ivory tower
Unlock the doors and give us flowers
We've wored for you now for too long
We've done what's right, you've done us wrong
For heaven's sake, we got to break away
Unchain yourself, from the mood of today

We don't need regression
Make your impression

Oooh, world is waiting
We need to go out dancing
Oooh, world is waiting
We need a new t.v.
Oooh, world is waiting
We don't need fear and fighting
Oooh, world is waiting
We don't need history

She should buy us all a drink
She should buy us all a drink
She should stop the pain, stop the pain
She should buy us all a drink

Yeah

We don't need recession
Nor means of repression

Just give us some money
Our life could be sunny too

Just give us some money
Our life could be sunny too, ooh

She should stop and think, stop and think, oooh

We don't need regression
Nor means of repression

Just give us some money
Our lives could be sunny too, ooh



. . .



If I could change the things I've done
Would I be the only one
To with again if only I could take your pain away
And think of better, better things to say
The highest price I'd gladly pay
For you to live, just golden days, golden days, golden days
So celebrate the moment now, have all that you desire

[Chorus:]
We'll keep each other warm, together we'll weather the storm
The children are dying and nobody's crying
There's got to be something out there, someone who cares
Got to be something out there

Give me real life, the worry and the strife
I'll throw it out of the window, to the dogs below
So come with me I'll guide you through wardrobes of fantasy
And treasure chests of what could be
A world without anxiety
A legacy of golden days, golden days, golden days
Leave it all behind the blind leading the blind
Have all that you desire

Gotta be, gotta be someone out there

Let's break the rules scattering the jewels
Of joy amongst ourselves
The lonely, lonely of the shelves
Feel good about yourself, I'll drink to your health
Have all that you desire

[Chorus]

I'm looking for something, and I don't know what it is

I am The Count, this is my song.
A coffee, a burger, you cant go wrong.

Rock me Daddio.
Rock it.

I am The Count and I love to wear silk stockings on my head.

Sing it my pretty sing.

Hip hop, be bop,

I am The Count, this is my song.
A coffee, a burger, just sing along.

Rock it.

Take it to the bridge, take it up, up, up, up.

Transylvania.

Our chance living in the mystical powers.
Instead I am here alone, a bird in a cage.
I will spread my wings and head home.

Transylvania.

Sock it to me baby.

Burger, burger,

One coffee, two burgers, three ham and cheese burgers,
and one chicken sandwich.
Poor on the mayo, pass me the relish.
Some more onion rings

. . .



(David Bowie)

Hey man oh leave me alone, you know
Hey man oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
Hey man I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place

Hey man schooldays insane
Hey man my work's down the drain
Hey man well she's total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but she... and then she...

Don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Don't lean on me man,
'Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight... she's all right

Hey man, ah Henry, don't be unkind, go way
Hey man, ah! I can't take you this time, no way
Hey man, ah droogie don't crash here
There's only room for one and here she comes, here she comes

Don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Don't lean on me man,
'Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight... she's all right

Ah, hey man!

Don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Don't lean on me man,
'Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight... she's all right

Aaaaaah Wham Bam Thank you Ma'am!

Suffragette City... Suffragette
