Album Lyrics:
Play the Game.
(Mercury)
Open up your mind and let me step inside
Rest your weary head and let your heart decide
It’s so easy when you know the rules
It’s so easy all you have to do
Is fall in love
Play the game,
Everybody play the game of love
When you’re feeling down and your resistance is low
Light another cigarette and let yourself go
This is your life
Don’t play hard to get
It’s a free world
All you have to do is fall in love
Play the game, everybody play the game of love
My game of love has just begun
Love runs from head down to mt toes
My love is pumping through my veins
Driving me insane
Come come come play the game
This is your life – don;t play hard to get
It’s a free world all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game.
Dragon Attack.
(May)
Take me to the room where the red’s all red
Take me out of my head-‘s what I said
Take me to the room where the green’s all green
And from what I’ve seen it’s hot, it’s mean.
Take me to the room where the beat’s all round
Gonna eat that sound -(yeah yeah yeah)
Take me to the room where the blacks all white
And the white’s are black, take me back to the shack.
Low Down-She don’t take no prisoners
Go Down-Gonna give me the business
No time-Yeah chained to the rack!
Show time-Got a Dragon on my back
Show down-Go find another customer
Slow down-I gotta make my way.
Another One Bites the Dust.
(Deacon)
Steve walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low
Ain’t no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, Are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat.
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I’m gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust.
How do you think I’m going to get along,
Without you, when you’re gone
You took me for everything that I had,
And kicked me out on my own.
Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat.
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When he’s down
But I’m ready, yes I’m ready for you
I’m standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating the sound of the beat.
Need Your Loving Tonight.
(Deacon)
No I’ll never, look back in anger,
No I’ll never, find me an answer,
You promised me, you’d keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I’d never, never be angry with you.
I don’t wanna feel like a stranger
Cos I’d rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many times
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I’d never, never be angry with you.
I must be strong so she won’t know how much I miss her
I only hope as time goes on, I’ll forget her
My body’s aching, can’t sleep at night
I’m too exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I’ll eat my heart out ‘cos I love her,
Love her, love her, love her.
Come on baby, let’s get together
I’ll love you baby, I’ll love you forever
I’m trying hard to stay away.
What made you change, what did I say?
Ooh I need your loving tonight!
Ooh I need your loving tonight!
Ooh I need your loving tonight!
Ooh I need your loving tonight!
Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
(Mercury)
This thing called love I just can’t handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain’t ready
Crazy little thing called love.
This (this thing) called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love.
There goes my baby
She knows how to rock ‘n’ roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat.
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track’s
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I’m ready
Crazy little thing called love.
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track’s
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I’m ready (ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love.
This thing called love I just can’t handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain’t ready
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love…
Rock It (Prime Jive).
(Taylor)
When I hear that rock and roll,
It gets down to my soul,
When it’s real rock and roll
Oh rock and roll.
When I hear that rock and roll,
It gets down to my soul,
When it’s real rock and roll
Oh rock and roll.
Oh Oh, Oh Oh,
You really think they like to rock in space?
Well I don’t know
What do you know?
What do you hear?
On the radio
I said Mama
I ain’t crazy
I’m alright – alright
Hey, c’mon baby said it’s alright
To rock and roll on a Saturday night
I said shoot and get your suit and come along with me
I said c’mon baby down come and rock and roll with me, I said yeah.
What do you do?
To get to feel alive?
You go downtown
And get some of that prime jive,
I said Mama etc.
We’re gonna rock it… tonight.
(We want some prime jive)
(We want some prime jive)
We’re gonna rock it tonight
C’mon honey
Get some of that prime jive
Get some of that, get, get down
C’mon honey – we’re gonna rock it tonight.
Don’t Try Suicide.
(Mercury)
Ok
Don’t do it Don’t you try it baby
Don’t do that Don’t Don’t Don’t
Don’t do that
You got a good thing going now
Don’t do it Don’t do it
Don’t.
Don’t try suicide
Nobody’s worth it
Don’t try suicide
Nobody cares
Don’t try suicide
Just gonna hate it
Don’t try suicide
Nobody gives a damn.
So you think it’s the easy way out
Think you’re gonna slash your wrists
This time
Baby when you do it all you do is
Get on my tits
Don’t do that try try try baby
Don’t do that – you got a good thing going now
Don’t do it Don’t do it – Don’t.
You need help
Look at yourself you need help
You need life
So don’t hang yourself
It’s o.k. o.k. o.k. o.k.
You just can’t be a prick teaser all of the time
A little bit attention – you got it
Need some affection – you got it
Suicide suicide suicide bid
Suicide suicide sucide bid
Suicide.
Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t do it babe
Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t-do it
Don’t put your neck on the line
Don’t drown on me babe
Blow your brains out –
Don’t do that – yeah.
Nobody gives – nobody gives
Nobody gives a damn.
Sail Away Sweet Sister (To the Sister I Never Had).
(May)
Hey little babe you’re changing
Babe, are you feeling sore?
Ain’t no use in pretending
You don’t wanna play no more.
It’s plain that you ain’t no baby
What would your mother say
You’re all dressed up like a lady
How come you behave this way.
Sail Away Sweet Sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you find somebody
Who loves you half as much as me
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister
Always be in love with you.
Forgive me for what I told you
My heart makes a fool of me
You know I’ll never hold you
I know that you gotta be free.
Sail Away Sweet Sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you find somebody
Who loves you half as much as me
Take it the way you want it
But when they let you down my friend
Sail away sweet sister
Back to my arms again.
Hot child don’t you know, you’re young –
You’ve got your whole life ahead of you
Oohah – You can throw it away too soon
Way too soon.
Coming Soon.
(Taylor)
Oooooooooo x n
Oh Oh Oh x n
I get some headaches when I hit the heights
Like in the morning after crazy nights
Like some month in law in her nylon tights
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
Coming soon,
Coming soon, on the outside, of the tracks,
You take ’em
The same old babies with the same old toys,
The neighbours screaming when the noise annoys,
Somebody naggin’ you when you’re out with the boys
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
Coming soon,
Coming soon, on the outside, of the track
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
Watch me now,
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
They’re always
Coming soon,
Coming soon, on the outside, of the track
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
Save Me.
(May)
It started off so well
They said we made a perfect pair
I clothed myself in your glory and your love
How I loved you,
How I cried…..
The years of care and loyalty
Were nothing but a sham it seems
The years belie we lived a lie
“I’ll love you ’til I die”
Save me Save me Save me
I can’t face this life alone
Save me Save me Oh…
I’m naked and I’m far from home.
The slate will soon be clean
I’ll erase the memories,
To start again with somebody new
Was it all wasted
All that love?…..
I hang my head and I advertise
A soul for sale or rent
I have no heart, I’m cold inside
I have no real intent.
Save me Save me Save me
I can’t face this life alone
Save me Save me Oh…
I’m naked and I’m far from home.
Each night I cry, I still believe the lie
I’ll love you ’til I die.
