歌词


1. BLUES AND RHYTHM

I saw this picture in a magazine
With it's gold plated grovers, such a clean machine
So I, I did my homework and I worked like hell
As the brown-eyed handsmone man said, you never can tell

I got that blues and rhythm, good enough to eat
Sound and vision, hit me with the backbeat

Blues and rhythm, good enough to eat,
Sound and vision, hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm, something for my soul
My decision, give me rock and give me roll

I started gigging in my early teens
Sewed the red leather patches on my filthy jeans
Got my first Fender tele, got my Marshall stack
Big head, knock 'em dead, I know where it's at

I got that blues and rhythm, good enough to eat
Sound and vision, hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm, something for my soul
My decision, give me rock and give me roll

Don't anybody listen anymore?
I can still hear them banging on my bedroom door
Is it too late to tell them? Will they understand?
Calm down, come on round and listen to the band

We got the blues and rhythm, good enough to eat
Sound and vision, hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm, something for my soul
My decision, give me rock and give me roll

Jailhouse rocker, make you tap your feet
Classic shocker, listen to the backbeat

I got that blues and rhythm
I got that blues and rhythm
I got that blues and rhythm
We got that blues and rhythm


2. ALL STAND UP(Never Say Never)

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

Working all week 'til Friday
Wish I could do it my way
Until when I'm living it up
I ain't giving it up
Making the best of my lot
One of these days when I stop
And I'm gonna be living it up
I won't be giving it up
Telling you now it's my day
Oh, I'm gonna do it my way

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

The job, it just drives me crazy
Guess I'm a little lazy
I don't care 'cos what do they know?
They'll be there when I go
Every day feel like screaming
Nothing gonna stop me dreaming
And there's one thing sure that I know
I can't wait for the whistle to blow
Telling you now it's Friday
I'm gonna do it my way

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

Living and loving and learning
Gotta keep the whole world turning
So come on, let's give it a try
No use in wondering why
Running away and hiding
Taking our time and finding
If we stop then it's all gonna go
Don't wait for the whistle to blow
Every day feel like screaming
Nothing gonna stop me dreaming

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, are you ready for the weekend? Are you ever
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All hands up, let me hear you say we're gonna get together

All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never
All stand up, let me hear you say never say never say never Say


3. THE ORIENTAL

Her name was Mia
from North Korea
I said, Come over
Bring your Land Rover
I don't like sushi
She said, that suits me
I take a shower
On every hour

Oh, the Oriental, very very special
If you ever get some
You want another one and another one
The Oriental, very very gentle
I got one for a cousin
Can you send me a dozen?

Her name was Mae Wong
She came from Hong Kong
She was a raver
Of Eastern flavour
I said, I love you
She said, I'd love to
Go down to Texas
Must have one Lexus

Oh, the Oriental, so very very special
If you ever get some
You want another one and another one
The Oriental, very very gentle
I like it spicy
That'll do me nicely

I'm gonna cross the water, take a plane to Tokyo
And find a little geisha, I love to see them go
And carry on to China, Asia Minor and some more
Then finish with a sling in Singapore

Oh, the Oriental, very very special
If you ever get some
You want another one and another one
The Oriental, very very gentle
I got one for a cousin
Can you send me a dozen?

Oh, the Oriental will drive you mental
I really gotta get one
And then another one and another one
Oh, the Oriental, can you get them on a rental?
Don't send me a Russian
Ain't no discussion
Got to be an Oriental


4. CREEPIN' UP ON YOU

I like the way you walk
You got a giggle when you talk
I like the way you talk
You got a wiggle when you walk
Nothing you can do, sure as one and one is two
I'll be creepin' up on you.

I'm gonna be your man
You'd better understand
Be your pretty little thing
Your puppet on a string
Nothing you can do, sure as one and one is two
I'll be creepin' up on you

Gonna write a little letter
Poetry for two
Send you pretty flowers
Creepin' up on you

Gonna write a little letter
Poetry for two
Send you pretty flowers

Gonna take a little time
Before I make you mine
But I'll bet you anything
You're gonna wear my ring
Nothing you can do
Sure as one and one is two
I'll be creepin' up on you

Nothing you can do, sure as one and one is two
I'll be creepin' up on you
Nothing you can do, sure as one and one is two
I'll be creepin' up on you


5. HEAVY TRAFFIC

Everybody's been a long time talking
Ain't nobody said a word that's true
Ain't it time to stop this crap type talking
Won't you tell us what you're gonna do

Tell you what, why don't we break this pattern?
Tell you what, why don't we do some do?
All together we can make it happen
Untogether and we won't get through

Wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic is bringing me down.

Every time I see the red light burning
Don't it always make the air turn blue
But until we see the red light turning
There ain't nothing anyone can do

We all dream about an open highway
Making dreams is all that we can do
We'd be moving on if I had my way
Nothing can stop me getting back to you

Wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic coming into this town

I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive but I can't get nowhere
Heavy traffic all over this town
I wanna drive, yeah drive
I wanna drive, I gotta get somewhere
Heavy traffic is bringing me down
Heavy traffic all over this town

Heavy traffic all over this town
Heavy traffic coming into this town


6. SOLID GOLD

Take a ride to somewhere with me
Anywhere that you want it could be
Sit on back and take it all in
I know where you're going, I know where you've been

A little smile, a secretive grin
One more pull and we're out there again
Close your eyes and tell me you see
What you believe in is just you and me
Take it or leave it, but take it from me

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold

Take a trip and I'll meet you there
We'll hang out on a wing and a prayer
Climb on board and put yourself in
We know where we're goin', we know where we've been
What do we know of the dangers within?

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold

Take a ride to somewhere with me
Anywhere that you want it could be
Sit on back and take it all in
I know where you're going, I know where you've been
What do we know of the dangers within?

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold


7. GREEN

So the the sky turned weird
And the sun went down
But it weren't two hours before it came around
It was a midnight feast
Such a sheer delight
I saw the Northern Lights, then I hit the ground

Green, green, keep it clean
Stick all your money up your money machine
Green, green, perfect scene
Oh, it's very, very nice here
But I wouldn't want to live here

You got your balzing red
You got your frozen breath
Watch the countryside just bleed to death
And then the ground turns white
And the sky turns brown
And the whole damn world looks upside down

Brown, brown, dead end town
Just like living in a hole in the ground
Brown, brown, upside down
Oh, it's very, very nice here
But I wouldn't want to live here


8. JAM SIDE DOWN

What's a boy to do when fate is cruel?
Keep on keepin' on, try to bend the rules
I'll do anything to find a way to your heart
Got a rabbit's foot but luck don't come
Got my fingers crossed but they go numb
I can hold my breath and wish for you
I need a miracle to make it through

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

I was sweet on you, that's how I felt
Got a butter heart, you made it melt
Like a big eyed kid in a candy store
I had a little sugar, now I want some more

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

You are my destiny, you
Bring out the best in me, you
You made me feel so lucky
So lucky to have you
And I need you, yeah I need you

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

Life is hard, I need a remedy
For the way I feel
My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around

My bread keeps landing jam side down
Say you'll be there to spread love around


9. DIGGIN'BURT BACHARACH

I got two black eyes, a nasty cut on my nose
A real funny feeling from my head to my toes
But does she care? No she don't care
No, she don't care, but she loves me just the same

Blind date, overweight
Made me late I couldn't navigate
Red wine, white wine, rise and shine, I got to draw the line
Black jack, clap trap, any kind of flap trap
Big Mac, lookin' back, diggin' Burt Bacharach

We're in a black limousine and onto a plane
Into the hotel, missing breakfast again
But does she care? No she don't care
No, she don't care but she loves me just the same

Comtemplate my Watergate
Two and eight, I didn't hesitate
Day time, night time, underline, I got to draw the line
Black jack, clap trap, any kind of flap trap
Big Mac, lookin' back, diggin' Burt Bacharach, oh


10. DO IT AGAIN

If you ever found anything better than working
You'd want to do it again
Like flying a plane or nude body surfing
You'd want to do it again
That Casanova, he had it right
He'd just do it again
He'd do it again all day and all night
Then he'd do it again

You're gonna drink too much, say never no more
But you're gonna do it again
Trust me, I'm a doctor, I know for sure
You're gona do it again

Do it again, do it again
If you all like it do it again
Do it again, do it again
If it hits you right just do it again

Me, I get time off, I twiddle my thumbs
Cos I want to do it again
I get a rush every night when 8.45 comes
Can't wait to do it again
There is a price to pay, it ain't cheap
If you want to do it again
Well, I sold my sould, yeah I'm in deep
Might as well do it again

Life is short, never complain
You could be hit by a truck, fall under a atrain
Enjoying yourself is the name of the game
Got to go back tonight and do it again

That Mona Lisa, now she could smile
And do it again
She'd sit and grin for quite a while
Then she'd do it again
You is here, then you ain't, that was never in doubt
Better do it again
Don't take no Einstein to work it out
So do it again

Do it again, do it again
If you all like it do it again
Do it again, do it again
If it hits you right just do it again
Do it again, do it again
If you all like it do it again
Do it again, do it again
If it hits you right just do it again


11. ANOTHER DAY

You never listen when I say
Only need another day
You never listen when I tell you what I tell you
I'm thinking what I'm thinkin'
Need a little time to keep the motor tickin' over now

Only need another day
Gotta find another way
We got a problem cos I don't know what you're thinkin'
You don't care what I'm feelin'
We better work it out or else there's gonna be a showdown Now

Why do you do what you do to me?
You got no clue what you do to me
Try to say but you couldn't see
What do come don't come easily
Only need another day

But it comes and it goes and everybody knows
That I don't like it, no I don't like it
And when it flows and when it starts to go
Then I like it, I sure do like it
I hope the day never comes you throw it all away
I only need another day

You never listen when I
You never listen when I say
I only need another day
You never listen when i tell you what I tell you
I'm thinking what I'm thinkin'
I need a little time to keep the motor tickin' over now

I don't believe that we can't agree
But I ain't letting that bother me
I tried to say but you couldn't see
What do come should come easily
I only need another day

But it comes and it goes and everybody knows
That I don't like it, no I don't like it
And when it flows and when it starts to go
Then I like it, I sure do like it
I hope the day never comes you throw it all away

Another day, I need another day
Another day, I need another day
Another day, I need another day


12. I DON'T REMEMBER ANYMORE

I don't remember anymore
I woke up freezin' on the floor
My head was buzzin' like a saw
I don't remember anymore

She stole the bottle then she said
Your eyes were blue and now they're red
I think I'll carry you to bed
I don't remember anymore

I wanna rock and roll, wanna sell my soul
Sail the TV around the swimming pool
I want my name in lights a la Johnny B Goode
Be an all night loon like Ronnie Wood

Don't read the writing on the wall
Cos if I'm having me a ball
I stand around till I fall
And don't remember anymore

I wanna rock and roll, wanna sell my soul
Sail the TV around the swimming pool
I want my name in lights a la Johnny B Goode
Be an all night loon like Ronnie Wood

She stole the bottle then she said
Your eyes were blue and now they're red
I think I'll carry you to bed
I don't remember anymore

I wanna rock and roll, wanna sell my soul
Sail the TV around the swimming pool
I want my name in lights a la Johnny B Goode
Be an all night loon like Ronnie Wood

Don't read the writing on the wall
Cos if I'm having me a ball
I stand around till I fall
And don't remember anymore

I don't remember anymore
I don't remember anymore
I don't remember anymore
I don't remember anymore


13.MONEY DON'T MATTER (UK Bonus)

Big life doing it all
Lookin after number one is the call
What's life doing for you
Shouldn't we be asking what we can do
That's life we give and we take

Won't someone please show me how

We can get to it
Place our bet do it
We can get to it now

Money don't matter

If money don't matter

No time i don't understand
Why won't everybody do what they can
This time running away isn't gonna make it better today
Next time making your day isn't gonna be so easy to say
Won't someone show me the way

We can get to it
Place our bet do it
We can get to it now

Money don't matter

It makes me mad
And sometimes sad
It makes me think that what has been done so far
Makes no difference at all

Money don't matter
Money don't matter
Tell it to your brother

Money don't matter
Money don't matter
If money don't matter
Tell me why we bother

Money don't matter
If money don't matter
Tell me why we bother


14.RYTHM OF LIFE

I'm livid again
Damn livid again
Believe it or not
Don't like it a lot

It's breaking my heart
This ache in my heart
Oh such is life
Oh rhythm of life

This rhythm of life
This trouble and strife
Is saying to me
It's how it should be

I'm trying again
I'm flying again
Oh such is life
Oh rhythm of life

No sweat, do i get
Not anymore
It's rhythm of life

I'm happy again,
Yeah happy again
Believe it or not
I like it a lot

It's here in my heart
So dear in my heart
Oh what a life
Oh rhythm of life

No sweat, do i get
Not anymore
It's rhythm of life
Yeh rhythm of life
It's rhythm of life
