We're just five strangers lost in time and space
Trying hard to stay alive
Playing rock tunes every night and day
Singing 'till the sun goes down
Oh, what a sinner
Is the man called a winner
Selling us the promised land
He was a player
His gun was a paper
Now we're stuck in devil's hands
And he say's...
If you dance with me tonight
I promise I will make you right
Just agree with my conditions
You'll appear on television
You're gonna be the brand new star
Boy, if you dance with me tonight
I promise I will make you right
Just agree with my conditions
You'll appear on television
You're gonna be the brand new star
Another day has passed since I sold my soul
Nothing’s better than before
And now I even lost my peace of mind
Tryna’ earn a fucking dime
Oh, what a sinner
Was the man called a winner
Selling us the promised land
We ain’t got no money
And I lost my honey
That’s the price for being a star
And he say's...
If you dance with me tonight
I promise I will make you right
Just agree with my conditions,
You'll appear on television,
You're gonna be the brand new star.
Boy, if you dance with me tonight
I promise I will make you right
Just agree with my conditions,
You'll appear on television,
You're gonna be the brand new star.
Just agree with my conditions
You'll appear on television
You're gonna be the brand new star
Just agree with my conditions,
You’ll be a star,
You’ll fly high,
You’ll reach the sky
And all you have to do is dance
Dance until the morning light
Dance until the morning light
Dance until the morning light
Dance under the light

I Only Wish You Well

The years keep falling outside my window,
Like the autumn leaves.
My Head plays a rush of memories
Of some older days,
Days of you and me
So, tell me, honey. How it's been?
Since you broke my heart,
Since you left me crying by the telephone line.
The days keep passing by,
My bed keeps getting cold
And my heart keeps going back, back to you
It's just that I cannot stop thinking
About how things would have been
If I had not been wrong
(Guitar Solo)
So, tell me, honey. How it's been?
Since you broke my heart,
Since you left me crying by the telephone line
Is he the one you were waiting for?
Is he the one who's gonna hold your hand
In the rainy days?
If so, I only wish you well, love
If so, take care and love her well, boy
The years keep falling outside my window,
Like the autumn leaves.
My Head plays a rush of memories
Of some older days,
Days of you and me.

My Girl

Take me down to the river,
Where the sun never shines.
Fill my cup with some dead dreams,
With your strawberry wine.
Or let me hold you, my darling
‘Till the stars start to fall.
As long as I can get my heart in your hands,
Everything is gonna be right.
My Girl
Oooh-La-la-la
Nevermind, i’ve been searching
For a girl just like you.
I’m the man with the broken heart,
Can I fix it for you?
Or let me hold you, my darling
‘Till the day that I die.
As long as I can get my heart in your hands,
Everything is gonna be right.
My Girl
Oooh-Do-do-do

The Beast of Babylon

Walking through the clouds
The girl with velvet hands
Made her appearance out tonight
The moon is wearing read
As for me, there’s nothing much that I can say
As the sun keeps falling down
The broken lovers forge her crown.
Another soul, another line,
She just shot them right between the eyes.
The fools standing still,
The fading of their will
Remarks her path though a lonely night
Don’t let me be misunderstood,
A ride with her, that would be nice.
She runs her fingers through my hair
And everything fades away
She keeps driving me insane,
But I don’t mind to play her game.
‘Cause babe, I wanna be yours
the whole night through
No need to change your mask,
I’m gonna be your fool.
Oh! There she comes!
The Beast of Babylon is gonna take your heart away
Oh! There she comes!
The Beast of Babylon, she’s gonna dance the night away
(Guitar Solo)
She’s been hurt a thousand times,
She’s carrying such a heavy load.
She just bought a new disguise
And now’s the time she’s leaving home.
Com-commotion
She’s leaving it all behind
Com-commotion
She’s filling empty lines,
I think I’m gonna lose my mind
‘Cause babe, I wanna be yours
the whole night through
No need to change your mask,
I’m gonna be your fool.
Oh! There she comes!
The Beast of Babylon is gonna take your heart away
Oh! There she comes!
The Beast of Babylon, she’s gonna dance the night away
Yeah (x18)
La-la-Lalalala-lalalala-la-la
