[Verse]
The waves are pounding on the sand tonight
I want to take your hand and make it feel so right
I know I’m ready and I’ll never be like this again
And the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We’re on the edge of forever and we’re never gonna fail
I know you’re ready and we’re running on the back of the wind
[Chorus]
And my body is burning like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice, I wanna fall in the fire
I’m gonna drown in the ocean and the bottomless sea
I wanna give you what I’m hoping you’ll be giving to me
And when the waves are pounding on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
And now the sky is trembling, and the moon is pale
We’re on the edge of forever and we’re never gonna fail, no!
How hard
How hard
How hard do I gotta try?
Surf’s up
Surf’s up
Surf’s up and so am I
Surf’s up
And so am I
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on, come on, come on
Na-na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na-na-na, come on
Na-na-na, come on, come on, come on
Na-na-na-na
Feels so good being bad (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
There’s no way I’m turning back (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Now the pain is for pleasure
‘Cause nothing can measure (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Love is great, love is fine (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Out the box, outta line (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
‘Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
‘Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na-na-na, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Love is great, love is fine (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Out the box, outta line (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
‘Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na-na-na, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
S, S, S and M, M, M
S, S, S and M, M, M
Oh, I love the feeling you bring to me, oh, you turn me on
It’s exactly what I’ve been yearning for, give it to me strong
And meet me in my boudoir
Make my body say ah, ah, ah, I like it (like it)
‘Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
‘Cause I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don’t care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na-na-na, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
S, S, S and M, M, M
S, S, S and M, M, M
S, S, S and M, M, M
S, S, S and M, M, M
Out there
There’s a world outside of Yonkers
Way out there beyond this hick town Barnaby
There’s a slick town Barnaby
Out there
Full of shine and full of sparkle
Close your eyes and see it glisten Barnaby
Listen Barnaby
Put on your Sunday clothes
There’s lots of world out there
Get out the brillantine and dime cigars
We’re gonna find adventure in the evening air
Girls in white in a perfumed night
Where the lights are bright as the stars
Put on your Sunday clothes
We’re gonna ride through town
In one of those new horse drawn open cars
We’ll see the shows at Delmonicos
And we’ll close the town in a whirl
And we won’t come home until we’ve kissed a girl
We’re in the building
Where they make us grow
And I’m frightened by
The liquid engineers
Like you.
My Mallory heart
Is sure to fail
I could crawl around the floor
Just like I’m real
Like you.
The sound of metal
I want to be
You
I could learn to be a man
Like you.
Plug me in
And turn me on
Oh everything is moving.
I need my treatment
It’s tomorrow they send me
Singing ‘I am an American’.
Do you?
Picture this
If I could make the change
I’d love to pull the wires from the wall
Did you?
And who are you
And how can I try
Here inside I like metal
Aren’t you
All I know
Is no-one dies
I’m still confusing love with need.
It’s a wonder
Wonder woman
You’re so wild
And wonderful
‘Cause it seems whenever
We’re together
The planets all stand still
Barbarella, psychedelia
There’s a kind of cockleshell about you
(Barbarella, ba-Barbarella)
Mmm, dazzle me with rainbow colors
Fade away the duller shade of living
Get me up high (High)
Teach me to fly (Fly)
Electrify (Electrify my night)
My night, with starry light
Above the stratosphere
Bring your dearness near
‘Til the dawn comes tumbling down
(Don’t make a sound, shh)
Every word we need comes
From the skies
Can’t you read my eyes
Saying “love”?
[Bridge 2]
Whoa, you give me a cold shoulder
Still I’m dying, girl, to hold ya
And make love
Love (Ba-ba, ba-bow!)
Barbarella, psychedelia
Never can a fella name or clone you
“What good is sitting alone In your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.
Put down the knitting,
The book and the broom.
It’s time for a holiday.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum
Come to the Cabaret.
Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band.
Come blow a horn,
Start celebrating;
Right this way,
Your table’s waiting.
What good’s permitting
Some prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret!
I used to have a girlfriend
Known as Elsie,
With whom I shared
Four sordid rooms in Chelsea
She wasn’t what you’d call
A blushing flower…
As a matter of fact
She rented by the hour.
The day she died the neighbors
Came to snicker:
“Well, that’s what comes
From too much pills and liquor.”
But when I saw her laid out like a Queen,
She was the happiest… corpse…
I’d ever seen.
I think of Elsie to this very day.
I remember how she’d turn to me and say:
“What good is sitting all alone in you room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.”
And as for me,
I made my mind up back in Chelsea,
When I go, I’m going like Elsie.
Start by admitting
From cradle to tomb
It isn’t that long a stay.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Only a Cabaret, old chum
And I love a Cabaret.
I’m waiting For the right time
If we meet Wonder what I’ll find
It’s all in my head
But I wish she could be mine, yeah
Hiding, all the love inside
It’s hell to know
She doesn’t know
But I want to tell you
She drives me out of my mind
I’m waiting For love to come my way
So I wrote her a letter the other day
So many things that I wanted to say to her
Maybe now the pain will go away
It’s hell to know
She doesn’t know
But I want to tell you
She drives me out of my mind
I’m waiting How long is it gonna be
A face in a crowd
Does she ever noticed me
We never met, so wish she a fantasy
How can I know, I’ll have to wait and see
It’s hell to know
She doesn’t know
But I want to tell you
She drives me out of my mind
Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars fill my dream
I’m a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed
Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace
Sounds caress my ear
And not a word I heard could I relate
The story was quite clear
Oh, baby, I been blind
Oh, yeah, mama, there ain’t no denyin’
Oh, ooh yes, I been blind
Mama, mama, ain’t no denyin’, no denyin’
All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I scan this wasted land
Try to find, try to find the way I feel
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like sorts inside a dream
Leave the path that led me to that place
Yellow desert stream
My shangri la beneath the summer moon
I will return again
As the dust that floats high in June
We’re moving through Kashmir
Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails
Cross the sea of years
With no provision but an open face
Along the straits of fear
Oh, when I want, when I’m on my way, yeah
And my feet wear my fickle way to stay
Ooh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah yeah,
But I’m down oh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah
Yeah, but I’m down, so down
Ooh, my baby, oh, my baby
Let me take you there
Come on, oh let me take you there
Let me take you there
