I built a wall in China, I sank an ocean liner
I've wrecked homes, I've burned thrones, chasing the crown I've put thorns in your feet, I spread plague in the streets I've sprung traps, confused maps, chasing the crown I'm chasing the crown till he bites the apple I was licking my lips till his Son come down I'm chasing the crown, the crown, I'm chasing the crown I'm taking a turn in the right direction By leaving his soul in the lost and found I'm chasing the crown, I'm chasing the crown I saw the tea float in Boston, I saw the live wire shock them I made them float, I made them drown, chasing the crown I laid the desert sands, I froze the polar caps Well, they'd dry out, and I'd shout "Hey I'm chasing the crown" |

Oh little Jeannie
You got so much love, little Jeannie And you take it where it strikes (and) give it to the likes of me Oh little Jeannie She got so much love, little Jeannie So I see you when I can You make me all a man can be And I want you to be my acrobat I want you to be my lover Oh there were others who would treat you cruel And oh oh Jeannie You were always someone's fool Little Jeannie You got so much time, little Jeannie Though you've grown beyond your years You still retain the fears of youth Oh little Jeannie You got so much time, little Jeannie But you're burning it up so fast Searching for some lasting truth And I want you to be my acrobat I want you to be my lover Oh there were others who would treat you cruel But oh oh Jeannie I will always be your fool INSTRUMENTAL And I want you to be my acrobat I want you to be my lover Oh there were others, and I've known quite a few But oh oh Jeannie I'm still in love with your Stepped into my life from a bad dream Making the life that I had seem Suddenly shiny and new Oh Jeannie I'm so in love with you Stepped into my life from a bad dream REPEAT |

You've a certain sartorial eloquence
And a style that's almost of your own You've got the knack of being so laid-back It's like talking to the great Unknown You've got a self-sufficient swept-back hairdo Pretty certain that you've got it made Oh your lifestyle shows in the clothes you chose Sitting pretty in the masquerade Sing it Don't you wanna play this game no more Don't you wanna play no more? Don't you wanna play this game no more Don't you wanna play no more? You remain the only main contender Though you never, you never meant to lose at all Down at the mouth yet unsurrounded Adamant before the fall Though when you go you know I might be lonesome But I'll keep it under close control Go and get your kicks and babe let's call it quits I believe I'm feeling indisposed Don't you wanna play this game no more When you go you know I might be lonesome But I'll keep it under close control Go and get your kicks and babe let's call it quits I believe I'm feeling indisposed |

Through a mutual agreement, we got that aching feeling
To look up one another one more time Tracking down the zip codes Sealing down those envelopes Lack of communication on the telephone line But don't judge us by distance Or the difference between us Try to look at it with an open mind For where there is one room, you'll always find another Two rooms at the end of the world Well we've both ridden the wagon bit the tail off the dragon Borne our swords like steel knights on the highway Washing down the dirt roads Hosing off our dirty clothes Coming to terms with the times that we couldn't but we tried Where there is one room, you'll always find another Two rooms at the end of the world Door to door they would whisper, will they ever get together Their rooms are different temperatures I'm told There's a change in their thinking And their habits seem uneven But together the two of them were mining gold |

Dust settles on a thin cloud
Sends a fog drifting to a worn out crowd I've had my face in a mirror for twenty four hours Staring at a line of white powder High-priced madness pays the tab I've scraped too much of nothing from your plastic bag I'm a catatonic son of a bitch who's had A touch too much of white powder And she's a habit I can't handle For a reason I can't say I'm in love with a wild white lady She's as sweet as the stories say White powder white lady You're one and the same Come on down to my house won't you And hit this boy again Shock waves to a tired brain Sends that hungry lady to my door again She's my shelter from the storm when I feel the rain Entertaining white powder I feel I'm dry docked and tongue tied Heaven sends a stretcher for the kids to ride I might just escape while the others might die Riding on a high of white powder |

Dear God, are you there
Can you hear me, do you care Dear God, here are we Less than perfect, far from free Oh we take what we get and we don't take no more But we sometimes forget what it was you created us for Dear God, now's the time If you're listening, show some sign Dear God, hear me plead Don't desert us in our need Dear God, lend a hand Is this really what you planned Dear God, in you we trust Though we've failed you, don't fail us Oh we take what we get but we can't take much more Do you sometimes forget what it was you created us for, dear God I hope and pray you'll lead us to a brighter day Out of the darkness and light up our way, dear God I hope and pray you'll lead us to a better way Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God Light up our way dear God, dear God Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God |

Never meant to be so friendly
Never made the room look nice Never heed a word of warning Never take my own advice I got a brand-new problem Pretty and she's 5 foot 10 I been in love three times this week I'm just about to fall again I don't want to fall in love Never gonna fall in love, again I don't want to fall in love Never gonna fall in love I'm never gonna fall in love, again Never meant to be so sexist It's so hard to overcome Trying hard to fight the feeling Lechery can be such fun `Cause everywhere there's lots of foxes And every cat I meet's a tom I wish she didn't make me rabid I wish she wouldn't turn me on `Cause everywhere there's lots of foxes And every cat I meet's a tom I wish she didn't make me rabid I wish she wouldn't turn me on Never meant to be so friendly Never made the room look nice Never heed a word of warning Never take my own advice I got a brand-new problem Pretty and she's 5 foot 10 I been in love three times this week I'm just about to fall again I don't want to fall in love Never gonna fall in love, again I don't want to fall in love Never gonna fall in love I'm never gonna fall in love, again Never meant to be so sexist It's so hard to overcome Trying hard to fight the feeling Lechery can be such fun `Cause everywhere there's lots of foxes And every cat I meet's a tom I wish she didn't make me rabid I wish she wouldn't turn me on `Cause everywhere there's lots of foxes And every cat I meet's a tom I wish she didn't make me rabid I wish she wouldn't turn me on |

If you want my loving take me back
If you miss my touch little girl take me back When the dreams you lean on are beginning to crack Open up your heart little girl and take me back If you want my loving then take me back If you're on your own little girl take me back When the nights grow longer turning blacker than black Open up your heart little girl and take me back Playing a part you're well prepared for, there you stand With all I ever cared for in your hand I'm waiting all the time For some kind of sign from you And I'll go on and on this way Waiting for the day When I will hear you say You'll take me back If you want my loving well take me back If you're feeling down little girl Then you'll take me back When you look around you for the love that you lack Open up your heart little girl You got my heart little girl Make a start little girl And say you'll take me back Take me back |

You've been crying, and I'm crazy about you
I've been lying, and hanging you up, 'cause I'm deep on the inside, but flash on the outside I am the thunder, and you are my lightning Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart Give me the love, give me the key to your heart Months of watching, and hours of hoping That you'd want me, when you see me again For I am an eagle, but my wings are all tied up You got the power to fly me again You've been trying to build walls all around you But you're lying, 'cause I've already been through And I've seen you trying to capture that feeling But you're chasing what you've never believed in Tell me you love me, tell me you need me |
