Mr. Tinkertrain
|
Would you like some sweeties little girl?
Come a little closer
I'm gonna show you a brand new world tonight
I've got a palace full of fantasy
Ready made just for you and me
Once you're there I'm gonna take you for a ride
I've got a one way ticket
To take you to the other side
I got a one way ticket
So come along and don't be shy
They call me Mr. Tinkertrain
That's how I got to get my name
They call me Mr. Tinkertrain
So come along and play my game
You'll never be the same
Close the curtains and turn out the lights
Beneath my wing it's gonna be alright
A little secret just for you and me
I've got the kind of toys you've never seen
Manmade and a bit obscene
Little angel come and sit upon my knee
I've got a one way ticket
To take you to the other side
I got a one way ticket
So come along and don't be shy
They call me Mr. Tinkertrain
That's how I got to get my name
They call me Mr. Tinkertrain
So come along and play my game
Mr. Tinkertrain
Never be the same
Mr. Tinkertrain
Can you say Mr. Tinkertrain?
No use crying 'cause you can't go back
Now you're here to stay
You can't run, you can't hide
You can't tell me what I feel inside
Mr. Tinkertrain
That's how I got to get my name
They call me Mr. Tinkertrain
So come along and play my game
That's why they call me Mr. Tinkertrain
That's why they call me Mr. Tinkertrain |

I Don't Want to Change the World
|
Standing on the crossroads, world spinning round and round
Know which way I'm going, you can't bring me down
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in
I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
You telling all the people the original sin
He says he knows you better than you'll ever know him
I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
You know it ain't easy
You know it ain't fair
So don't try to please me
Because I really don't care
Don't tell me stories 'cause yesterday's glories
Have gone away, so far away
I've heard it said there's a light up ahead
Lord I hope and pray I'm here to stay
Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in
I don't wanna change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me |

Mama, I'm Coming Home
|
Times have changed and times are strange
Here I come but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home
Times go bye, seem to be
You could have been a better friend to me
Mama, I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes
You made me cry, you told me lies
But I can't stand to say goodbye
Mama, I'm coming home
I could be right, I could be wrong
It hurts so bad it's been so long
Mama, I'm coming home
Selfish love yeah we're both alone
The ride before the fall
But I'm gonna take this heart of stone
I just got to have it all
I've seen your face a hundred times
Everyday we've been apart
I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'Cause mama, mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found an turned around
By the fire in your eyes
I've seen your face a thousand times
Everyday we've been apart
I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'Cause mama, mama, I'm comin home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home |

Desire
|
I always knew what I wanted to be
I knew for sure, I knew for sure
Always knew it was them or me
I wanted more, more and more
It's all right, it's okay
None of them people gonna take it away
They don't know like I know
And I can't stop 'cause it drives them crazy
It drives them crazy, 'cause I won't be cool
It's too late baby
It's the same old desire
Nothing has changed, nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Oh yeah
Always moving, somewhere else to be
Moving on, moving on
Scream at you and you scream at me
Right or wrong, right or wrong
It's all right, it's okay
No one's ever gonna take us away
'Cause they don't know like I know
I gotta keep rockin', 'cause it makes me crazy
It makes me crazy, who needs to be cool
Life's amazing
It's the same old desire
Crazy train, crazy train
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Same old desire
Nothing has changed, nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Oh yeah
It's the same old desire
Nothing has changed, nothing's the same
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain
Same old desire
Crazy train, crazy train
Burning like fire
Don't you ever take my name in vain |

No More Tears
|
The light in the window is a crack in the sky
A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye
A levee of tears to learn she'll never be coming back
The man in the dark will bring another attack
Your momma told you that you're not supposed to talk to strangers
Look in the mirror tell me do you think your life's in danger here, ya
No more tears
Another day passes as the night closes in
The red light goes on to say it's time to begin
I see the man around the corner waiting, does he see me?
I close my eyes and wait to hear the sound of someone screaming here
No more tears
So now that it's over can't we just say goodbye?
I'd like to move on and make the most of the night
Maybe a kiss before I leave you this way
Your lips are so cold I don't know what else to say
I never wanted it to end this way my love my darling
Believe me when I say to you in love I think I'm falling here
No more tears |

S.I.N.
|
A psycho driver twisted in my head
Silence broken, but there's nothing said
I got a nightmare from a fantasy
Will the voices ever set me free
I can hear 'em, I can hear 'em
Someone wake me when it's over
I can see 'em, I can see 'em
I can see 'em over and over again
I saw it happening like deja-vu
They tried to tell me but they couldn't get through
In my head I hear the voices scream
I need someone to tell me what it means
Whoa - who turned off the lights?
Whoa - a shadow in the night
Whoa - it wasn't meant to be
I can't take this alone
Don't leave me on my own tonight
Oh no I can't take it alone
Don't leave me on my own tonight
Yeah
Shattered dreams lay next to broken glass
I wonder if tonight will be my last
I need an angel who can rescue me
To save me from my mental symphony
I can hear 'em, I can hear 'em
Someone wake me when it's over
I can see 'em, I can see 'em
I can see 'em over and over again
Yeah
Whoa - who turned out the lights?
Whoa - a shadow in the night
Whoa - it wasn't meant to be
I can't take this alone
Don't leave me on my own tonight
No, no I can't take it alone
Don't leave me on my own tonight |

Hellraiser
|
I'm living on an endless road
Around the world for rock and roll
Sometimes it feels so tough
But I still ain't had enough
I keep saying that it's getting too much
But I know I'm a liar
Feeling all right in the noise and the light
But that's what lights my fire
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you
Walking out on another stage
Another town, another place
Sometimes I don't feel right
Nerves wound up too damn tight
People keep telling me it's bad for my health
But kicking back don't make it
Out of control, I play the ultimate role
But that's what lights my fire
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you
I'm living on an endless road
Across the world for rock and roll
Sometimes it feels so tough
But I still ain't had enough
Feeling all right in the noise and the light
But that's what lights my fire
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I'll make it come true
Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you |

Time After Time
|
Time after time
I guess that love is blind
I couldn't read your mind
Line after line
Line after line
It was written in your eyes
I guess it's no surprise
Time after time
I can hear them whispering
Shadows in the rain
Thinking how it might have been
Time after time
Line after line you broke me
Day after day
I watched love fade away
I wanted love to stay
Day after day
The games we played
The foolish things we say
The pain won't go away
Day after day
Candlelight is shimmering
Shadows on the wall
Thinking how it might have been
Day after day
The games we play you broke me
Candlelights are shimmering
Shadows on the wall
Thinking how it might have been
Time after time
Line after line, you broke me
Time after time
Line after line, you broke me |

Zombie Stomp
|
I don't need a doctor
But I need something to kill the pain
Don't know what I'm after
But the pressure's driving me insane
Searching for a different role
Had a funny feeling I can't hide
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Why can't they just let me be
Alone without the misery
Hey, hey, do the Zombie, Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Flirting with disaster
Morning after killing me again
Hiding from the laughter
And the demons dancing round my brain
Always dancing on thin ice
I guess I'll have to pay the price
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Thinkin' how it could have been
If I had never let them in
Hey, hey, do the Zombie, Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Take me to the doctor
'Cause I feel it coming on again
Don't know where I'm going
'Cause I guess I don't know where I've been
Looking for a different ride
Always dancing on thin ice
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Thinking how it could have been
If I had never let them in
Hey, hey, do the Zombie, Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp
Hey, hey, do the Zombie Stomp |

A.V.H.
|
I get up and I get down
I don't know how to take it
All the pain makes me scream and shout
I wonder if I'll make it
I love the feeling when the magic is just right
There's no revealing what is hidden in the night
Riding on a train I can't control
No one else to blame I can't let go
In the darkness I can feel
The things tht makes me crazy
Hands of madness cold as steel
I find it quite amazing
Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
Rules meant for breaking and the seeds I have to sow
Riding on a train that I can't control
No one else to blame but I can't let go
It's calling me, it's calling me
It's calling me, it's calling me
I'm riding on a train that I can't control
See no evil, fear no fright
Never lose the feeling
Keep the targets in your sight
Know the cards you're dealing
Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
Rules meant for breaking and I gotta let, I gotta let go
Riding on a train that I can't control
No one else to blame but I can't let go
It's calling me, it's calling me
It's calling me, it's calling me
I'm riding on a train that I can't control |

Road to Nowhere
|
I was looking back on my life
And all the things I've done to me
I'm still looking for the answers
I'm still searching for the key
The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?
The road to nowhere leads to me
Through all the happiness and sorrow
I guess I'd do it all again
Live for today and not tomorrow
It's still the road that never ends
The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?
The road to nowhere leads to me
Ah ah
The road to nowhere's gonna pass me by
Ah ah
I hope we never have to say goodbye
I never want to live without you, yeah
The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?
The road to nowhere leads to me
The road to nowhere leads to me
The road to nowhere leads to me
You gotta, gotta, gotta lead to me
The road to nowhere leads to me
You gotta, gotta, gotta lead to me
You gotta, gotta, gotta lead to me
Oh, the road to nowhere |
