Lyrics

1. TOP OF THE BILL

You're a rock-n-roll star
You are out of the charts
Your blood is cold you're getting old
But your life is rock-n-roll

That crazy rock-n-roll band
Is spinning in your head (in your head)
Each and every way ya make the thoughts
Is about stars on the chart

Ohhh... and they are top of the bill

You're a rock-n-roll star
You've been the first one on the chart
You've had glory and fame
Rock-n-roll was your game

Ohhh... and you were top of the bill


2. DRIFTING SUN

Well, sitting on a stone,
Sitting all alone,
Sticky things are rolling down the mountain.
Well, see the lonesome tramp
Who's living in the damp
Nobody's in the valley

[Chorus]
Shine on, shine on, Sun - oh it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, Sun - shine on all night long

Daydreams are of silent blue
Icy wings will carry you.
Midnight Sun will never shine
Just ravings of a fool you think
And laugh about him all the time.

[Chorus]

White pale velvet Autumn Sun will fade away
Forgotten Life will finish now in endless grey.
Some days are drifting haze
Some days are glowing blaze
Some days are tides of life...(x2)

Staggerin' along a tropic highway
Crazy lights are whirling 'round and 'round
Hell or heaven - Night or Day?
Burning fingers push the Sun away...

Shine on, shine on, Sun - shine on all night long (x2)


3. SUN IN MY HAND

Yeah... I'd like to tell you something now
Before madness shows her lucid feathers in the Sky...

How can you lose your mind
How can you waste your time only like that ?
Look at the sun inside of my hand so bright
I call it music -
And if you touch you'll see
It comes from infinity
It's made forever
You will not touch in vain
Music will make you sane
Will make you sane

How can you lose your mind
How can you waste your time only like that ?
Look at the sun inside of my hand so bright
I call it music -


4. LONGING FOR FIRE

Flying with the guys
And my longing for fire
Crying like last night
The night which brings me higher

In search of light
Escape the night one day
She's lost in time
Just miss so high
Time's passing by and i'm
I'm on my way

In search of light
Escape the night one day
She's lost in time
Just miss so high
Time's passing by and i'm
I'm on my way


5. CATCH YOUR TRAIN

Wake up man it's late but not too late,
It's six o'clock like everyday!

Get your things run and forget the rain,
Take powerpills don't miss your train!

[Chorus]
And you'd like to be another
A different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life check your way.
And you like the Rock'n'Roller
A different life and Whisky Cola
But don't be low keep your own style
And catch your train!

Don't be lazy man and work off your ass,
He's the boss you've gotta do what he says!

Catch your train, run and forget those ways,
Keep it cool it's not too late!

[Chorus]

And catch your train!

[Chorus](x2)


6. VIRGIN KILLER

Cry like you feel,
Try like you feel, feel it ...!
Try to escape,
Cry to escape, escape it ...!
It's so hard to run away
He's a virgin killer ...

No, no, no, can't you see?
No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's,
You're a demon's desire!

Death on the screen,
Sadistic magazines, watch out
Suicides everyday,
Political ways, get it
Well, you can't find new ways ...
But he's a virgin killer ...

No, no, no, can't you see?
No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's,
You're a demon's desire!

Garbage in the streams,
A-bombs in your dreams, look out
Sharks in the pictures,
Exorcist prescriptions, forget it
Try to get away from that,
Cos he's a virgin killer ...

No, no, no, can't you see?
No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's,
You're a demon's desire!


7. HELL CAT

Fire in her eyes ... burn ...
Perfume of the skies ...
Fingers cold as ice ... freeze ...
Devil in disguise!

Well, she's a, she's a, she's a
You know that she's a hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat
(She's gonna scratch up your mind ...)
You know that guy with Piccadilly-eyes
Was talking to the French boy
But didn't realize.
Banana-long-boat-eating
An' he tried to get a wife
But he couldn't stay alive
Well, you know that lad with the rubber-dad
Paints his fingers yellow, blue, and red.
An' you also know that she's a liar
Knowing only her desire ...

Fire in her eyes ... burn ...
Perfume of the skies ...
Fingers cold as ice ... freeze ...
Devil in disguise!
Well, she's a, she's a, she's a
You know that she's a hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat
(She's gonna scratch up your mind ...)
You know that guy with Piccadilly-eyes
Was talking to the French boy
But didn't realize.
Banana-long-boat-eating
An' he tried to get a wife
But he couldn't stay alive
Well, you know that lad with the rubber-dad
Paints his fingers yellow, blue, and red.
An' you also know that she's a liar
Knowing only her desire ...


8. POLAR NIGHTS

Down, down ...
That's bringing me down
The stars in the sky
Seem to fall to the ground.
Time, time ...
I'm chasing the time
The stars in the sky
Seem to be turning round.
Is that the wind on your eyes
That is soothing my mind?
Is that the night of your eyes
That is soothing my mind?

Round, round ...
My mind's whirling round
The moons in the sky
Seem to burn on the ground.
Gone, gone ...
My nightmares are gone
The moons in the sky
Seemed to eat up the sun.
Is that the wind in your eyes
That is soothing my mind?
Is that the night on your eyes
That is soothing my mind?
Back from polar nights ...

I was down ...
I was out ...
The nights at the pole've been
So cold without you!
I was down ...
I was out ...
The pole-star was bringing me
Back home to you.
Is that the wind in your eyes
That is soothing my mind?
Is that the night in your eyes
That is soothing my mind?


9. I'VE GOT TO BE FREE

You're burning my heart
You're burning my mind
You're spoiling my art
You're wasting my time

No taste in your actions
No taste in your line
No truth or direction
No true love of mine

You say you wanna be a superstar
Don't give a damn how to get that far
You say you wanna ride a diamond car
But I don't like your fat cigar.

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey don't you wanna see
I'm not your stepping stone
Hey, hey, hey I've got to be free

So leave my life alone (x3)

You're in love with success
You're spilling my wine
Don't follow my tracks, babe
You ways are not mine

Your main god is money
You're wasting my life
I'm not your Bugs Bunny
And you're not my wife

You say you only do it for our best
But you don't wanna see what I detest
You think me crack-brained
That I'm gonna leave your show
But you can't see what I see
So let me go.

[Chorus]

So leave my life alone (x3)

[Chorus](x2)


10. THE RIOT OF YOUR TIME

The only king of rock has gone gone to heaven
A star on the way to the stars
Another king of rock is born, '77
Just born to be there, when it starts

'94,'95, if the world is still alive
Will be the start, for the riot of your time
Here's a ticket for a burning train
To set the world in flame
To play the hero game
Here's a ticket for the future days
You'll be the xrock king
The new electric face
A new generations mind
The riot of your time

He's got the message to be more,
A new desire
A storm full of life, wild and young
"the x-rock 1994 electric fire"
Will burn out the time, like the sun


11. HE'S A WOMAN - SHE'S A MAN

I saw it walking lonely down the street
Cool like a cat and like a crazy dream
I'm looking twice again and can't believe
It turned around and then it looked at me
I thought "oh, no" it really couldn't be
It was a man and was a woman too
He's a woman
She's a man

I think it really came from far away
I'm feeling hypnotised, I have to stay
It takes my hand and says come on let's go
We're going home there's nothing more to say
He starts to move she starts to play
I need a body, why not you?
He's a woman
She's a man


12. STEAMROCK FEVER

We'd like to introduce tonight
The Kings of a brandnew style
They are hungry to play
We'd like to introduce tonight
The new heavy steam rock style
Quite different and strange

Allright, how do you feel tonight
Get up to see and cry the name of the
Band

Steam right with hands and feet tonight
Get up to see and cry and they will begin -
Here they are!

Steam rock fever,
Screaming rock believers
Steamrock fever in L.A.


13. SUSPENDER LOVE (Live)

Ah, you turn me on
I feel the biggest part of yours
Ah, ah there's something more
So much more baby

Ah, I can't be cool
It's getting stronger every day
Pictures of you
I cut him out baby

[Chorus]
Give me the long faced girl on the magazine
Show me the white rolls royce in the rain
Give me the long faced girl on the magazine
Show me the white rolls royce in the rain

I can't get enough
Too hard a body drives me mad
Oh yeah it's like a drum
To stay in love baby

[Chorus]


14. HOUND DOG (Live)

You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Crying all the time
You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Crying all the time

You ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

When they said you was high classed
It was just a lie
When they said you was high classed
It was just a lie

You ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine


15. LONG TALL SALLY (Live)

Gonna tell Aunt Mary 'bout Uncle John
He says he has the blues but he has a lotta fun
Oh, baby
Yeah, baby
Woooh, baby
Havin' me some fun tonight

Well, long tall Sally has a lot on the ball
And nobody cares if she's long and tall
Oh, baby
Yeah, baby
Woooh, baby
Havin' me some fun tonight

Havin' me some fun tonight
We're gonna have some fun tonight,
Gonna have some fun tonight
We're gonna have some fun tonight,
Everything will be alright
We're gonna have some fun,
Gonna have some fun tonight

We're gonna have some fun tonight,
Gonna have some fun tonight
We're gonna have some fun tonight,
Everything will be alright
We're gonna have some fun,
Gonna have some fun tonight


16. FLY TO THE RAINBOW (Live)

Life is empty, can't remember anytime before,
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore,
Gliding through this life, and another is a child,
And we're doing games, and losing things,
Always playing gigs.
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the stars shine bright,
Where the sun is shining, in the night.
I am in disgrace, yet i see a smiling face,
And i hope you let me, share your place.
I don't live today.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Well, I lived in magic solitude
Of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops ...
Roaming through Space tenthousand years ago
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis
Sinking to eternal waves of darkness ...

Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
A broken violin floating alone in December
Darkness everywhere and nothing more.

Symbol - strange Symbol - Melancholy
Painting torrid colors to a sky of green
Candle breathing one night only
Far away - in chillness - bleak - unseen ...

Drifting galley - ghostlike shadow,
Sails rigged to catch and kill the Time...
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
To call the Thing ... Sublime !...
