Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby, they’re tumblin’ down
And they didn’t even put up a fight
They didn’t even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standin’ in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It’s like I’ve been awakened
Every rule, I had you breakin’
It’s the risk that I’m takin’
I ain’t ever gonna shut you out
Everywhere I’m lookin’ now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you’re my savin’ grace
You’re everything I need and more
It’s written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won’t fade away/em>
[Chorus]
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I’ve traveled the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for something
[Pre-Chorus]
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused
[Chorus]
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I’ve traveled the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s lookin’ for something
[Bridge]
Hold your head up
Keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on
Keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on
Keep your head up, movin’ on
Hold your head up, movin’ on
Keep your head up
I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, “Is it right or is it wrong?”
If only fame had an I.V, baby could I bear?
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
I’ve overheard your theory, “Nostalgia’s for geeks”
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read
One second I’m a Koons fan, suddenly the Koons is me
Pop culture was in art, now art’s in pop culture, in me
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
Woo, touch, touch
Woo, touch, touch now
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause, live for the applause-plause, live for the-
Way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I’ll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch (Make it real loud)
Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E) Make it real loud
Put your hands up, make ’em touch, touch
My baby lives in shades of blue
Blue eyes and jazz and attitude
He lives in California too
He drives a Chevy Malibu
And when he calls, he calls for me and not for you
He lives for love, he loves his drugs, he loves his baby too
But I can’t fix him, can’t make him better
And I can’t do nothing about his strange weather
But you are unfixable
I can’t break through your world
‘Cause you live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable
My baby lives in shades of cool
Cold heart and hands and aptitude
He lives for love, for women too
I’m one of many, Bonnie’s blue
And when he calls, he calls for me and not for you
He prays for love, he prays for peace, and maybe someone new
But I can’t help him, can’t make him better
And I can’t do nothing about his strange weather
‘Cause you are unfixable
I can’t break through your world
‘Cause you live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable
Your hot, hot weather in the summer
High, high, neglectful lover
Hot, hot weather in the summer
High, neglectful lover
You’re crumbling, sadly
You’re sadly, crumbling
You are unfixable
I can’t break through your world
‘Cause you live in shades of cool
Your heart is unbreakable
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
And I’ve been waiting for this moment, for all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I’ve seen your face before my friend
But I don’t know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you’ve been
It’s all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord
Well I remember, I remember don’t worry
How could I ever forget
It’s the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep this silence up
No you don’t fool me
The hurt doesn’t show, but the pain still grows
It’s no stranger to you and me
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
And I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord, oh lord

I wanna hold ’em like they do in Texas, please
Fold ’em, let ’em hit me, raise it, baby, stay with me (I love it)
Love game intuition, play the cards with spades to start
And after he’s been hooked, I’ll play the one that’s on his heart
Oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got
Oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face (mum-mum-mum-mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face (mum-mum-mum-mah)
I wanna roll with him, a hard pair we will be (hey)
A little gamblin’ is fun when you’re with me (I love it)
Russian roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby, when it’s love, if it’s not rough, it isn’t fun (fun)
Oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got
Oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got
Can’t read my, can’t read my

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face (mum-mum-mum-mah)

I won’t tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
‘Cause I’m bluffin’ with my muffin
I’m not lying, I’m just stunnin’ with my love-glue-gunnin’
Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand ’cause I’m marvelous
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face
(She’s got me like nobody)
Can’t read my, can’t read my
No, he can’t read my poker face

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face (mum-mum-mum-mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence, caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it’s not me
It’s not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are crying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What’s in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie, oh
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
Another mother’s breaking
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It’s the same old theme
Since nineteen-sixteen
In your head, in your head, they’re still fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What’s in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, ay, oh, ya ya
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until You come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up to more than I can be.
Oh how I’d love it girl, just you and me
Take the day and fly
But oh this job, it’s got the best of me
Tell you why, tell you why
Somebody above is in a desperate state
Some kind of urgency, the kind that won’t wait
I say tomorrow, he say today
And the man in my head well he tell me no way
Keep working
I got eight little fingers and only two thumbs
Will you leave me in peace while I get the work done
Can’t you see I’m working
Oh, oh I’m working on it
Oh, oh I’m working on it
Well they’re coming from above me
And they’re coming from below
Yea they’re in there right behind me
Everywhere that I go
And my buddy, he’s screaming down the telephone line
He say gimme, gimme, gimme
I say I ain’t got the time
Oh, oh can’t you see I’m working on it
Oh, oh I’m working on it
Yea, yea, oh tell ’em
How I’d love it girl, just you and me
Take the day and fly
But oh, this job it’s got the best of me
Tell you why
Well they’re coming from above me
And they’re coming from below
Yea they’re in there right behind me
Everywhere that I go
My buddy, he’s screaming down the telephone line
He say gimme, gimme, gimme
I say I ain’t got the time
Oh, oh can’t you see I’m working on it
Oh, oh I’m working on it
Oh, oh I’m working
Oh, oh can’t you see I’m working on it
