Lyrics

1.
Prowler
Walking through the city
Looking oh so pretty
I've just got to find my way
See the lights flashing
All their electric flashes
I've just got to find my way

Will you see me
Prowling through the bushes
Will it all go quiet
What you seeing girl
Can't you believe that feeling
Can't you believe it
Can't you believe your eyes
It's all routine girl

Got me feeling myself
And reeling around
Got me talking but
Feel like walking around

Got me feeling myself
And reeling
Got me talking but
Nothing's moving
Got me feeling myself
And reeling around

Walking through the city
Looking oh so pretty
I've just got to find my way
See the lights flashing
All their electric flashes
I've just got to find my way

Will you see me
Prowling through the bushes
Will it all go quiet
What you seeing girl
Can't you believe that feeling
Can't you believe it
Can't you believe your eyes
It's all routine girl

Got me feeling myself
And reeling around
Got me talking but
Feel like walking around
2.
Remember Tomorrow
Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday's sorrows,
Tomorrow's white lies
Scan the horizon,
The clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of the hole

Tears for remembrance
And tears for joy
Tears for somebody,
For this lonely boy
Out in the madness the all seeing eye
Flickers above us to light up the sky

Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday's sorrows,
Tomorrow's white lies
Scan the horizon,
The clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of the hole
3.
Running Free
O.K.
I'm just 16, stayed out of trouble
Out of money, out of love
I got nowhere to call my own
Hit the gas and here I go

I'm running free yeah
I'm running free
I'm running free yeah
I'm running free

I've spent the night in every jail
And listened to the sirens wail
But they ain't got a thing on me
I'm running wild, I'm running free

I'm running free yeah
I'm running free

Pulled her at the Bottle Top
The whiskey dancing disco hop
Now all the boys are after me
That's the way it's gonna be

I'm running free yeah
I'm running free
I'm running free yeah
I'm running free
4.
Phantom of the Opera
I been learning such a lot from you now
That you won't get away from my brain.
I been learning such a lot it'd be hard
It'd be hard, it'd be hard if I stay

And you know that I know
That you ain't
Got that time to waste
It feels like the feelings
That used to be felt out in space

You stand here every Wednesday
You wait for the curtain to fall
But knowing the terror
And hold it can have on your soul

Now I know that you'll wanna
Scratch me and make me alone
'Cause you know I'm helpless
And always around you - just call

Keep your distance, walk away
Don't take it baby
Don't you stay you'll fade away
Watch your step, he's out to get you
Come what may, don't you stray
From a narrow way

I'm coming and hiding
And I'll take you home with me
I'm the phantom of the opera
I'm the devil you just got to see

You gotta stop riding my soul
Let it fly through the air
You haunt me you taunt me
You torture me back at your lair
Torture me back at your lair

Strange World
The only place where you can dream
'Cause living here is not what it seems
Ship away sun in the sky
Nobody there to reason why

Here I am, I'm not really there
A smiling face is ever so rare
Let's walk in the deepest space
Living here just isn't a place

Sparks of life come from the ground
When I cry there isn't a sound
All my feelings cannot be helped
I'm baby in my new strange world

Shades of green grass gives time
Goes drinking plasma wine
A look of love, a dream of thoughts
Living here you'll never grow old
Ooh, baby
Don't you hear me call

Charlotte the Harlot
Given the switch, she'll rise to the energy
Know what you're saying
Shattered your soul if I'm on the tail
Of the love that you're giving

I think I'm a damn grand man but you find
That you know what they're after Charlotte
You got your legs in the air
But you hear all the laughter

Charlotte the harlot - show me your leg
Charlotte the harlot - Take me to bed
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see one
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see low

I changed a man, brought a man to your room
But you feel at a loss you're jacking about
But I told you at the start just to tell me the cost

You got the feeling that I will adore
But you can't forget him
Don't you know you're breaking the law
With the service you give him

Charlotte the harlot - show me your leg
Charlotte the harlot - Take me to bed
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see one
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see low

Oh baby oh oh... there was a time
When you let me standing there picking up
Pieces of love from the floor
Well Charlotte you left me alone in there
To make your rent as the bloody poor

Well Charlotte you told me you loved me true
Picking up pieces of love yesterday yeah
Well Charlotte you'd rather of had the two
'Cause you're making love all day

Ah 'cause you're making
Ah 'cause you're making

Given the switch, she'll rise to the energy
Know what you're saying
Shattered your soul if I'm on the tail
Of the love that you're giving

I think I'm a damn grand man but you find
That you know what they're after Charlotte
You got your legs in the air
But you hear all the laughter

Charlotte the harlot - show me your leg
Charlotte the harlot - Take me to bed
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see one
Charlotte the harlot - Let me see low

Iron Maiden
Won't you come into my room
I wanna show you all my wares
I just want to see your blood
I just want to stand and stare

See the blood begin to flow
As it falls upon the floor
Iron Maiden can't be bought
Iron Maiden can't be sold

I want whatever, whatever you are
Iron Maiden's gonna get you no matter how far
You can pull through, watching the shed
Up above my head
Iron Maiden watching the dead

Won't you come into my room
I wanna show you all my wares
I just want to see your blood
I just want to stand and stare

See the blood begin to flow
As it falls upon the floor
Iron Maiden can't be bought
Iron Maiden can't be sold

I want whatever, whatever you are
Iron Maiden's gonna get you no matter how far
You can pull through, watching the shed
Up above my head
Iron Maiden watching the dead

Won't you come into my room
I wanna show you all my wares
I just want to see your blood
I just want to stand and stare

See the blood begin to flow
As it falls upon the floor
Iron Maiden can't be bought
Iron Maiden can't be sold

I want whatever, whatever you are
Iron Maiden's gonna get you no matter how far
You can pull through, watching the shed
Up above my head
Iron Maiden watching the dead
