Cruel Summer

Hot summer streets
And the pavements are burning
I sit around
Trying to smile but
The air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are saying
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort
This heat has got
Right out of hand

(Chorus)
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone

The city is crowded
My friends are away
And I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle
So I got to get up and go

(Chorus)

Rough Justice

The young don't grow up well
not in this life

Big mouths and money win every time

Boy beats girl while the sneaky and snide
Take all your money and take your pride.
Innocent people walking by
no time to smile before they die

Don't call that justice !
Children are starving on the street
another one disappearing every week

Don't call that justice!
King for a day but their kingdom grows cold

Theyll never grow up but they're bound to grow old.
I remember the pain and humiliation

And Ill show them rough justice
the way that they did.
Innocent people walking by
no time to smile before they die
. . .
Innocent people walking by
no time to smile before they die
. . .
Boy beats girl while the sneaky and snide
Take all your money
take all your pride.
Innocent people walking by
no time to smile before they die
. . .
Innocent people walking by
no time to smile before they die
. . .
Don't call that justice!

King of the Jungle

Lurking, he knows your face
He waits and bides his time
Mind clocks your every move
'Till you step out of line
Stalking streets by night
Pushing guns by day
He knows it isn't right
But he wants to make his name
He's working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes
They're moving closer
But you know you're not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes
Cos' you're the loser
Before you even start to run you've lost the race

You'll never know the place
Until your time has come
It'll be a sunny day
Until his work is done
Doesn't care what pain you feel
Can't see your mother's tears
As she counts the cost of the life that's lost
And twenty wasted years
He thinks he's smarter
Gone and made another, made another martyr

Hide your eyes
They're moving closer
But you know you're not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes
Cos' you're the loser
Before you even start to run you've lost the race

He's working harder
Gotta make another, make another martyr

Hide your eyes
They're moving closer
But you know you're not allowed to look them in the face
Hide your eyes
Cos' you're the loser
Before you even start to run you've lost the race

Hide your eyes
They're moving closer
Hide your eyes
Cos' you're the loser

Dream Baby

Think of me while you're walking down the street
Scheming ways for us to meet
I know that you'd like to fool around
You know I'm the hottest thing in town

You're getting closer
Hot on my trail
I'm the queen bee baby
So you just can't fail

Cos I'm your dream dream baby
I'm your sweet thing baby
You're always worried that I'm not gonna stay
Cos when the dreaming ends you know I'll fade away

Haunting you every day and night
Haunting you till the early morning light
And you want me if you know what's right
I'm your No. 1 lady, sheer delight

You're getting closer
Hot on my trail
I'm the queen bee baby
So you just can't fail

Cos I'm your dream dream baby
I'm your sweet thing baby
You're always worried that I'm not gonna stay
Cos when the dreaming ends you know I'll fade away

Haunting you every day and night
Haunting you till the early morning light
And you want me if you know what's right
I'm your No. 1 lady, sheer delight

Dream dream baby
Dream dream baby
You're always worried that I'll split the scene
Cos like all good things I'm fading with your dreams

I can read from your eyes that you like my style
Imagination's really running wild
If you give it a try you know it could be
So come on little baby won't you follow me

Hot Line to Heaven

With your smile you're making plans

You've got the world right in the palm of your hands.
Everything you touch is gold but your future life is bought
and sold.
It seems to me that you've got it made
But you never show that you're afraid.
Now the voices in your head they make you scream
and drive you mad.

You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone.
Riding on a hot line
riding on a hot line to heaven

Standing all on your own.

Staring eyes as cold as stone
I want to be at the sands alone.
Reaching out to cry for help

Once a man but now you're just a shell.
You can make a deal
you make the break
But you're heading for an early grave.
You've got to find it
got to try

something special to get you high.

You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone...
You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone...

It seems to me that you've got it made
But you're heading for an early break.
But now some voices in your head
They make you scream and drive you mad.

You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone...
You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone...
You're on a hot line to heaven
now you're all alone...

State I´m in

Can we carry on
Or must we still pretend
That we're really friends
Those feelings have gone
But we're not the same
And we're both to blame
There's nothing left to tell you
Nothing left to give you

You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
You walk out when I walk in
You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
Can't you see the state I'm in

Now the time has come
To leave the past behind
And I've made up my mind
Look at what we've done
Who needs to be ashamed
Of the crying game
I've built my world around you
I'm better off without you

You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
You walk out when I walk in
You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
Can't you see the state I'm in

There's nothing left to tell you
Nothing left to give you

You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
You walk out when I walk in
You walk out when I walk in
Can't you see the state I'm in
Can't you see the state I'm in

Robert Deniro´s Waiting

Hope's dashed to the floor like shattered teenage dreams.
Boys living next door are never what they seem.
A walk in the park can become a bad dream

People are staring and following me.
This is my only escape from it all:
Watching a film or a face on the wall.
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian.
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian.
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian.
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian.
I don't need a boy
I've a got a man of steel

Don't come any closer
I don't wanna feel.
You're breathing
you're touching
but nothing's for free

I never want this to happen to me.
Don't try to change me
you're wasting your time

Now I've got something much better in mind.
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian...
A walk in the park can become a bad dream...
Robert de Niro's waiting
talking italian...

Through a Child´s Eyes

The sun shines forever
Through a child's eyes
The sun shines forever
No worries no ties
Laughing and learning
As time goes by

I never believed that I'd grow old
Still I can hear the things you told
The sun has gone and the nights are cold
You never told me
(Never told me)

I sit and watch the sunset
With tears in my eyes
I sit and watch the sunset
The child in me sighs
Why did you tell me
So many lies

I never believed that I'd grow old
Still I can hear the things you told
The sun has gone and the nights are cold
You never told me
(Never told me)

You never told me...
