Here we go again
Here we go again and again
Wondering how it all began
Wondering will it ever end
Round and round we go
Where it's going nobody knows
Though I know we've been
This place before
Someone keeps on moving the door
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
So I say hello again
And nobody gives a damn
And no one wants to hold your hand
Everyone is an also-ran
Round and round we go
Where it's going nobody knows
Though I know we've seen
This place before
Someone keeps on moving the door
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Round and round we go
Round and round we go
Here we go again
Here we go again

It's just like heaven
being here with you.
You're like an angel,
too good to be true.
But after all, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,
uh, uh, I do,
no one can love you like I do.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh.

When you are near me
my heart skips a beat.
I can hardly stand on
my own two feet.
Because I love you, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,
uh, uh, I do,
no one can love you like I do.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,

Please, never leave me
blue and alone.
If you ever go,
I'm sure you'll come back home.
Because I love you, I love you, I do.
Angel baby, my angel baby.

Uh, uh, I love you,

To know know know her
Is to love love love her.
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do, and I do, and I do.
And I do, and I do, and I do.

I'll be good to her
And I'll make love to her.
Everyone says there'll come a day
When I'll walk alongside of her.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do and I do and I do.
And I do and I do and I do.

Why can't she see,
How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see
That she were meant for me.

To know know know her
Is to love love love her.
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do and I do and I do.
And I do and I do and I do.

Why can't she see,
How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see
That she were meant for me.

To know know know her
Is to love love love her.
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile.
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do and I do and I do.
And I do.

This is a story about your friend and mine
Who is it, who is it, who is it?

There you stand with your L.A. tan
And your New York walk and your New York talk
You're mother left you when you were small
But you're gonna wish you wasn't born at all

Steel and glass
Steel and glass
Steel and glass
Steel and glass

Your phone don't ring no one answers your call
How does it feel to be off the wall

Well your mouthpiece squawks as he spreads your lies
But you can't pull strings if your hands are tied
Well your teeth are clean but your mind is capped
You leave your smell like an alley cat

Steel and glass
Steel and glass
Steel and glass
Steel and glass

I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared
I'm scared, so scared
I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared
As the years roll away
And the price that I paid
And the straws slips away

You don't have to suffer
It is what it is
No bell book or candle
Can get you out of this, oh no!

I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred
I'm scarred, uh huh
I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred
Every day of my life
I just manage to survive
I just wanna stay alive

You don't have to worry
In heaven or hell
Just dance to the music
You do it so well, well, well!

Hatred and jealousy, gonna be the death of me
I guess I knew it right from the start
Sing out about love and peace
Don't wanna see the red raw meat
The green eyed goddamn straight from your heart

I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired
Of being so alone
No place to call my own
Like a rollin' stone

. . .


Ain't no people on the old dirt road
No more weather on the old dirt road
It's better than a mudslide mamma when the dry spell come, yeah
Oh oh oh old dirt road

Ain't no difference on the old dirt road
Tarred and feathered on the old dirt road
Trying to shovel smoke with a pitchfork in the wind, yeah yeah yeah

Breezing thru the deadwood on a hot summer day
I saw a human being lazybonin' out in the hay
I said uh, hey Mr. Human can ya rainmaker too?
He said I guess it's O.K. ya know the only thing we need is water
Cool, clear water, water

Ain't no people on the old dirt road
No more weather on the old dirt road
Better than a mudslide mamma when the morning comes, yeah
Oh oh oh oh old dirt road

Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
So long, so long
Bye bye

. . .


Nobody loves you when you're down and out
Nobody sees you when you're on cloud nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime
I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine

I've been across to the other side
I've shown you everything, I got nothing to hide
And still you ask me do I love you, what it is, what it is
All I can tell you is it's all show biz
All I can tell you is it's all show biz

Nobody loves you when you're down and out
Nobody knows you when you're on cloud nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime
I'll scratch your back and you knife mine

I've been across the water now so many times
I've seen the one eyed witchdoctor leading the blind
And still you ask me do I love you, what you say, what you say
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away

Well I get up in the morning and I'm looking in the mirror to see, ooo wee!
Then I'm lying in the darkness and I know I can't get to sleep, ooo wee!

Nobody loves you when you're old and grey
Nobody needs you when you're upside down
Everybody's hollerin' 'bout their own birthday
Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground

. . .


Bless you wherever you are
Windswept child on a shooting star
Restless Spirits depart
Still we're deep in each other's hearts

Some people say it's over
Now that we spread our wings
But we know better darling
The hollow ring is only last year's echo

Bless you whoever you are
Holding her now
Be warm and kind hearted
And remember though love is strange
Now and forever our love will remain
