Stop! In the name of love
Before you break my heart

Baby, baby
I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my door
I watch you walk down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet
But this time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
(Think it over) After I've been good to you ?
(Think it over) After I've been sweet to you ?

Stop! In the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop! In the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over
Think it over

I've known of your
Your secluded nights
I've even seen her
Maybe once or twice
But is her sweet expression
Worth more than my love and affection ?
But this time before you leave my arms
And rush of to her charms
(Think it over) Haven't I been good to you ?
(Think it over) Haven't I been sweet to you ?

Stop! In the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop! In the name of love
Before you break my heart
Think it over
Think it over

it worries me this kind of thing
how you hope to live alone
and occupy your waking hours
we're taking sides again
i just wept i couldn't understand
why you started this again

every day you send me more
what makes it worse is this plan of yours
to ensure I don't forget
I'd write and tell you that I've burnt them all
but you never send me your address
and i've kept them anyway

so don't ask me if I think it's true
that communication can bring hope to those
who have gone their seperate ways
it hardly touched me when it should have then
and memories are uncertain friends
when recalled by messages

coded messages always hurt
letters

messages poision

I've learnt the rules and how it goes
I can't sit still or settle down

see those girls they're heaven blessed
I guess it's so they know best

You've given me a true love
and every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
A tender melody
Pulling me closer
Closer to your arms

Then suddenly, I hear a symphony
Ooh, your lips are touching mine
A feeling so divine
'Till I leave the past behind
I'm lost in a world
Made for you and me

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Play sweet and tenderly
Every time your lips meet mine now baby

Baby, baby
You bring much joy within
Don't let this feeling end
Let it go on and on and on
Now baby, baby
Those tears that seem my eyes
I cry not for myself
But for those who never felt the joy we felt

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Each time you speak to me
I hear a tender rap so dy of love now

Baby, baby
As you stand holding me
Whispering how much you care
A thousand violins fill the air

Now baby, baby
Don't let this moment end
Keep standing close to me
Ooh, so close to me, baby, baby
Baby, baby
I hear a symphony
A tender melody

Hot Stuff - Whitesnake


I'm ready for you,
Are you ready for me.
I've got a burning heart,
It won't let me be.
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
I've got to feed the fever
Of a love that burns.

I walk the street round midnight,
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I can't get enuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff.

I'm hard to handle,
Too hot to hold.
I can't seem to satisfy
My heart an' soul.
I need a woman to set me free,
A little Miss Understanding
To feel the need in me.

I walk the street round midnight,
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I can't get enuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Can't get enuff, hot stuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Can't get enuff.

(Solo)

I'm ready for you,
Are you ready for me.
I've got a burning heart,
It won't let me be.
I feel the hunger, my spirit yearns,
I've got to feed the fever
Of a love that burns.

I walk the street round midnight
Looking for a little hot stuff,
I can't get enuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
Hot stuff, hot stuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff,
Can't get enuff, hot stuff,
I just can't get enuff, hot stuff.

Hot stuff, can't get enuff hot stuff.

Il Divo - Mama


Mama thank you for who I am
Thank you for all the things I'm not
Forgive me for the words unsaid
For the times
I forgot
Mama remember all my life
You showed me love,you sacrificed
Think of those young and early days
How I've changed
Along the way (along the way)
Bridge:
And I know you believed
And I know you had dreams
And I'm sorry it took all this time to see
That I am where I am because of your truth
And I miss you , I miss you
Mama forgive the times you cried
Forgive me for not making right
All of the storms I may have caused
And I've been wrong
Dry your eyes (dry your eyes)
Bridge
Mama I hope this makes you smile
I hope you're happy with my life
At peace with every choice I made
How I've changed
Along the way
And I know you believed in all of my dreams
And I owe it all to you ,mama

Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason to live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
Tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
Don't want no short people round here

Short people are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's a wonderful world)

Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody to love

They got little baby legs
They stand so low
You got to pick 'em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time

Well, I don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
Don't want no short people' round here

Late last night while wishing on a star
Down from the sky came a man in a car
He said "Get in, Jackson
Come on let's go for a ride"
Outta sight

Sitting in the cockpit strapped down in a chair
I said, "Hey, tell me
What's that over there?"
He said, "Meet my computer."
He's a friendly son of a gun and we're having fun

Playing cards on Venus in a cloudy room
Pass a glass of ammonia, I got to get off soon
Sunbathin' on Mercury or jammin' on Jupiter
Which do you prefer?

It's getting pretty late, I got to go home
Nice to have met you, what's your telephone?
Maybe soon I'll call you
If I can afford the fare
It's long distance out there

Anus of Uranus, he's a friend of mine
He's a first-rate party and a real fine time
Anus of Uranus, he's a friend of mine
He's a first-rate party and a real fine time

Forty-seven dead beats living in the back street
North east west south all in the same house
Sitting in a back room waiting for the big boom
I'm in a bedroom waiting for my baby


She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
Dance to the beat that we love best
Heading for the nineties
Living in the wild wild west
The wild wild west

Mandy's in the backroom handing out Valium
Sheriff's on the airwaves talking to the D.J.'s
Forty-seven heartbeats beating like a drum
Got to live it up live it up
Ronnie's got a new gun

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
Dance to the beat that we love best
Heading for the nineties
Living in the wild wild west
The wild wild west

Now put your flags in the air and march them up and down
You can live it up live it up all over the town
And turn to the left, turn to the right
I don't care as long as she comes tonight

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
Dance to the beat that we love best
Heading for the nineties
Living in the wild wild west
The wild wild west

Heading for the nineties living in the eighties
Screaming in a back room waiting for the big boom
Give me give me wild west
Give me give me safe sex
Give me love give me love
Give me time to live it up

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
Dance to the beat that we love best
Heading for the nineties
Living in the wild wild west
The wild wild west

Worth Fighting For - Judas Priest

You said i could never find a way to ease your mind
That where i'd go you'd wind up in the dust
I tried so hard to have you reach another side of me
Instead you went to nowhere and forgot

So i wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what i knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Desert heat can wear you down
But still i'm rollin' through
Did i see your figure in the haze?
I am driven by a thirst to quench myself of love
The sun beats on me for the price i've paid

So i wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what i knew before
Some things are worth fighting for
Yeah!

Night road leads me to a town of ghosts
Beckoned by the glow of keresone & tumbleweed
They're calling out (they're calling out)
Forever more (forever more)

I'm leaning in the wind
Head bowed down from what i saw
My shadow for a friend
Still some things are worth fighting for

So i'm moving on
Asking where you might have gone
From what i knew before
Some things are worth fighting for
Yeah!

Worth fighting for

Women, listen to your mothers
Don't just succumb to the wishes of your brothers
Take a step back, take a look at one another
You need to know the difference...
Between a father and a lover

Song: Beauty School Drop-Out


Your story's sad to tell, a teenage ne'er-do-well
Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block
Your future's so unclear now,
what's left of your career now
Can't even get a trade-in on your smile
Beauty school drop-out, no graduation day for you
Beauty school drop-out, missed your midterms
and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have
taken time to wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to have the doctor
fix your nose up Baby get moving (better get moving),
why keep your feeble hopes alive
What are you proving (what are you proving)?
You've got the dream, but not the drive
If you go for your diploma, you could join a steno pool
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, hangin' around the corner store
Beauty school drop-out, it's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything,
you think you're such a looker
But no customer would go to you,
unless she was a hooker
Baby don't sweat it (don't sweat it),
you're not cut out to hold the job
Better forget it (forget it), who wants their hair done by a slob
Now your bangs are curled, your lashes twirled,
and still the world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face and go back to highschool
Baby don't blow it, don't put my good advice to shame
Baby you know it, even Dear Abby's say the same
Now I've called the shot, get off the pot, I really gotta fly
Gotta be goin' to that maltshop in the sky
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool
Beauty school drop-out, go back to highschool

God Bless the USA
by
Lee Greenwood

If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I'd thank my lucky stars to be livin' here today,
'cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that away.

And I'm PROUD to be an American where as least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I'd gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God bless the USA.


From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,
From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA
Well, there's pride in every American heart,
and it's time to stand and say that


I'm PROUD to be an American where as least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I'd gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God bless the USA.

Put Your Hand In The Hand
Ocean

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water.
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea.
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others diff'rently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from a Galilee.

Every time I look into the holy book I wanne tremble.
When I read about the part where a carpenter cleared the temple
For the buyers and the sellers where no diff'rent fellas than what I profess to be.
And it causes me pain to know that I'm not the gal that I should be.

Mama taught me how to pray bevore I reached the age of seven.
And when I'm down on my knees that's a when I'm close to heaven.
Daddy lived his life with two kids and a wife you do what you must do
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get you through.

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water.
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea.
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others diff'rently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from a Galilee.
Put your hand in the hand of the man from a Galilee.

Hello, everyone, this is your action news reporter with all the news
that is news across the nation, on the scene at the supermarket. There
seems to have been some disturbance here. Pardon me, sir, did you see
what happened?

(Witness):
Yeah, I did. I's standin' overe there by the tomaters, and here he
come, running through the pole beans, through the fruits and vegetables,
nekkid as a jay bird. And I hollered over t' Ethel, I said, "Don't
look, Ethel!" But it's too late, she'd already been incensed.

(Chorus)
Here he comes, look at that, look at that
There he goes, look at that, look at that
And he ain't wearin' no clothes

Oh, yes, they call him the Streak
Look at that, look at that
Fastest thing on two feet
Look at that, look at that
He's just as proud as he can be
Of his anatomy
He goin' give us a peek

Oh, yes, they call him the Streak
Look at that, look at that
He likes to show off his physique
Look at that, look at that
If there's an audience to be found
He'll be streakin' around
Invitin' public critique

(Reporter):
This is your action news reporter once again, and we're here at the gas
station. Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

(Witness):
Yeah, I did. I's just in here gettin my car checked, he just appeared
out of the traffic. Come streakin' around the grease rack there, didn't
have nothin' on but a smile. I looked in there, and Ethel was gettin'
her a cold drink. I hollered, "Don't look, Ethel!" But it was too
late. She'd already been mooned. Flashed her right there in front of
the shock absorbers.
