They named it the rock, land of
the living dead A repose for the rich and famous All the infamous would tell each other's lies Why did they want to tell the truth [CHORUS] On an island in the sun Cool Pacific winds blow Most were poets and they wrote in basic prose On the walls of their sunset blvd. In their nine by five rooms, became inspired By the silence in sight of the city [FULL CHORUS] On an island in the sun Cool Pacific winds blow Just across the bay Battered by the waves [SOLO] [FULL CHORUS] - Key change Two Sailawena's [FULL CHORUS] |

Alcatrazz-General Hospital
I awoke in a room that was occupied by those about to die For my sleep was disturbed by the sound of old men's cries for help What's this place?What the hell am i doing here,Whats happened to me And I'm wondering what kind of state my mind and body's In Be calm, Please lay back We will help you rest for a while And i yelled no you don't know (Im) not going to sleep I'm just gonna get my body out of here I pushed the bottle down away from my face But felt the needle stabed like a spear As my legs started shaking the room revolved around my aching head And the floor's rushing up just to greet me Laying there on my back as the ceiling flies away from me Was i finally losing my hold on reality? Be calm, Take this pill We will help you rest for a while And i yelled no you don't know (Im) not going to sleep I'm just gonna get my body out of here I pushed the bottle down away from my face But felt the needle stabed like a spear |

It was newborn and ten feet tall,
But they called it little boy, And C7, H5, O6, N3 they called him T-N-T. The fireball would dim the sun, Promising death in its cruelest form. Hiroshima Mon Amour As we beg to be forgiven do you spit, In our face and curse us all. The fireball that shamed the sun, Burning the shadows on the ground, As the rain falls to dry the land, Leaving desert for the thirsty man. They all said it would end the war, And we thanked Christ for the bomb, And the priests and witches all agreed, They should die to keep them free. The fireball that shamed the sun, Burning the shadows on the ground, As the rain falls to dry the land, Leaving the desert for the thirsty man. HIROSHIMA!!! |

You're walking up with your eyes on me
It's looking good but I just don't know I need a girl who can keep her head All Night Long You didn't come just to see the show I guess you know what you wanna see The way you smile lets me know I can't go wrong I wanna touch you I wanna feel you I wanna make you mine I wanna love you (all night long) I wanna be with you (all night long) I wanna love you (all night long) I wanna be with you (all night long) I saw you standing down by the stage Your Black stockings and your see through dress Your mouth is open but I don't wanna hear ya Say good night You're sorta young But you're over age I don't care cause I like your style Don't know about your brain But you look alright Your mind is dirty But your hands are clean You show the class But youre left alone I know I can't stand another night (on my own) Hey girl would you like some wine What's your name? Are you by yourself? Are you the one? But you say can I take you home |

See the man in the busy street
He's almost incomplete He takes his pleasure in strange ways And the lady of the library She's just like you and me You wanna know her at all She takes the train up to the great big city She knocks the door and steps right in He's just a fool that someone likes to pity They work it out in the house of sin Night Games They pay for their night games They were two lovers They dont use names It says in the rules I's strictly for the fools To play night games They pay for their night games Always play one last frame Games of the night Every room has a different scene Everyone has a different dream They make it any way they choose You can get anything you need Anyone at the price agreed And it's up for grabs for you to lose It's entertainment for the lost and lonely A cabaret for those who dare Full entertainment of the one and only It's got to be if it gets you there Night Games They pay for their night games They were two lovers They don't use names It says in the rules It's strictly for the fools To play their night games They pay for their night games Always play one last frame It says in the rules It's strictly for the fools Night Games |

A dark and crowded room
Warm beer that's stale Nobody seems to care, there's more for sale She walks on stage Strokes her hips, shakes her mane Her sweet cheap perfume, reminds them that she's why they came. Oh she's the stripper, she'll strip your soul Oooh she's the stripper, she'll eat you whole. Assembled in Mexico, dark Spanish eyes, She'll tell you where to go, if you get wise, She's your fantasy, but she won't go too far, Oh she has to be, in league with the guy at the bar. Ohhhhhhhh she's the stripper, she'll strip your soul Oooh she's the stripper, she'll eat you whole. |

One more hotel it's 12 o'clock we're checking out
Still confused and slow to move to get on the bus, The driver keeps that Memphis smile for his good old boys He's loaded them up and heads them out in the void. We drive -- pass those trailers and trucks We'll make good time with some kind of luck Another victory, for sons and lovers You gave us the power, you gave the power It's not just one more show we know it's gotta be right We work the songs then kiss the road a warm good night |

Let's take a plane and go somewhere exotic
To play with a non-descript song We'll shoot all the crotch shots for 12 year old hopefuls To make you a real man my son Some cheap kid from Birmingham Blessed with an accent That pours like the darkest brown ale Just one more puppet, piss elegant marionette He's just a fast buck for sale Don't you know that God blessed video We know that God blessed video Break out the cameras that re-shape my face And get someone to carve up my hair If you can't beat them, you might as well join 'em And be glad to say you were there |
