Tekst :

Maybe I can see at night
Maybe I can touch the sky
A few feet above the ground
A few more with every bound
Got to get higher, got to get higher
No-one can see me trying
Dreaming of flying

I going to find my life in the light of the night
I m going to dream my dream when you re all out of sight
Then I can be who I want I can fly in the sky
Really feel a mercury high

Running thru a crowded street
Faster than a lightning streak
With each step the night is brighter
With each step I m feeling lighter
Got to get higher, got to get higher
No-one can see me trying
Dreaming of flying

I run - I fly - I reach the sky
My feet - have wings

Now it s easy watch me fly
Wheeling in the open sky
A few feet above the crowd
A few miles above the cloud
Got to get higher, got to get higher
Everyone see me flying
Flying

Tekst :

I like a Studebaker widowmaker
Sitting on the highway crown
When it s early in the morning
I can put my foot right down
And if the wheels keep spinning
Baby I ll be winning
I ll be really alive
When the drive s beginning

I ve got a Buick that can do it
With a wide seat in the rear
With a woman on my arm
And a cold six pack of beer
And if the wheels keep turning
I ll be yearning
I ll be bombing away
With the back tyres burning

I m twin exhausted see
My second wife is tired of me
But when she gets off my back
I ll be back to the track
Wheeling free

Barracuda you are ruder than
A long legged bitch I know
With my hands on your stick
I can feel your body letting go
And I m always dreaming
About the back tyres screaming
Down with the toes and away she goes

Tekst :

I used to be a sinner, used to have my cake and eat it
They warned me of my fate, but I was quite prepared to meet it
You ll go to Hell they smiled at me
And told me of the roaring fires
But I was happy living wild
And fueling my own desires
I was a wild man
Drinking, smoking and messing around with women
Lots of women
No, not swimming, women

I wanna go to Heaven
The place to be is right up there
I wanna go to Heaven
It s gonna be good so I won t despair

I decided to reform and pray
Beg mercy for my soul
I prayed in church
Threw away my bad habits
Prayed out of church
Adopted an entirely different role
I gave my money to the poor until I was poor
But at least I ensured that I would go up there
Instead of down below to the Inferno
Where the evil flames of desire
Burned higher and higher and higher

I m gonna go to Heaven
Paid my dues so I m getting in
I m gonna go to Heaven
It s looking good if I abstain from sin

I knocked on the pearly gates
Neatly side-stepping the long queue
Waved hi to St. Peter
Who checked my card and let me through
I smiled, threw my hands in the air
Laughed and got arrested
They said hey man, you re in the wrong place
Your behaviour is a disgrace
Here we pray every hour, on the hour
Read extracts from the Bible and look solemn
What, says I, no party?
No party?
Let me out

Let me out of Heaven
I got it wrong, no I can t stay here
No laughing in Heaven
Let me out, I just can t stay here

Well I ran around in the state of shock and panic
This wan t what I expected
Here was what looked like a bunch of manic depressives
Can I get a transfer, I screamed
But no, once you re in Heaven, you re here for good
The good of your soul, but that s no good for me
If you want to go to Hell you ve really got to be bad
Okay, okay, I ll be bad
Too late
What do you mean too late
Too late
No
In the meantime

Let me out of Heaven
I ve got it wrong, no I can t stay here
No laughing in Heaven
Oh God, it s awful here
Going crazy in Heaven
Take me out and let me go to hell
No laughing in Heaven
Don t laugh, this place is Hell

Baby baby, I think it s time we move on now
Baby baby, I think it s time we move on now

Looking out my bedroom window
See the planes take off from Heathrow
One by one they come and go
On and on, on and on
I think...

She s got a face of a street kid
With the lips of an orchid
And the eyes of a distant dream

She s got the hands of a lover
And the arms of a mother
And the eyes of a future dream

Is there some way of knowing
If there s more than she s showing
In...

I have been travelling over mountains
Even the valleys too

I ve been travelling night and day
I ve been running all the way
Baby, trying to get to you (repeat verse)

Ever since I read your letter
Well you say you love me true

(Repeat second verse)

When I read your other letter
My heart began to sing
There...

Nothing bad ever happens to me
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Why should I care?

A man broke into my neighborhood
He threatened the family with a loaded gun
He tied them all up and beat em real good
He took...

Last night, I went out with some old friends
I couldn t help but think of you again
Someone was wearing your cologne
What a cruel way to remind me that you re gone

A couple danced over by the jukebox
Hand in hand,...
