WALL OF SILENCE
Talk to him, talk to her, talk to everybody about it
About the troubles you had with me, talk about it with everyone except me
Tell it to your mother, tell it to your brother, tell it to our best friends casually
Tell it to the neighbors, tell it to the mailman, tell it to your enemies but not to me
Put up a wall between you and me
But it won't make things better
Build a wall of silence
(guitar break)
You're so smart, you're so cute, you're so understanding and grateful
You're the one that has all the loot, you're so undemanding and hateful
Livin' in confusion, livin' life's illusion, livin' how you think you got to be
Deny what's in your heart, it's tearin' us apart, leavin' pain inside the heart of me
I know that we should all be free
Got to make life better
Break this wall of silence, tear it down!
Okay, he admits it - Ron did write this song for Christine Lakin
SAFE FROM HARM
Got a feeling, deep inside
My love for you, can't be denied
No time to run away and hide
I'm lost inside your love
(first chorus)
Love will take you in its arms
Love will keep you safe from harm
Safe from harm
(verse two)
Lost and lonely, nowhere to run
Now I know you're the only one
No need to worry about what we've done
'Cause everyone can see
(second chorus)
You will take me in your arms
Love will keep us safe from harm
Safe from harm
(guitar solo)
(repeat second chorus)
Felt so scared, till I found out
There's no need to scream and shout
Love is gentle and there ain't no doubt
Ain't no doubt you'll see
(repeat first chorus)
LOVE SONG
When I felt like givin' up, you gave me hope, sometimes I just can't see
You keep me lookin' up, help me cope, somehow you're always beside me
How do you do the things you do, oh is there someone guiding you
Why do you still believe in me, you give your love so faithfully
(second verse)
You're on my mind both night and day, an inspiration when I'm blue
At night when I'm alone, I still pray, that I can always be with you
My life before was meaningless, no sense of joy, no happiness
But you helped make the picture clear, now there's a love instead of fear
(guitar solo)
I've never known a love like this, you're like an angel here with me
Each time I see you, I'm in bliss, you smile and I feel so free
I don't know how you stay so true, oh but I'm glad for finding you
I don't know where our path will go, but we will be together, that I know
OLD RECORD
(chorus)
I'm an old, worn out record
No one wants to play me anymore
I can give you hours of listening pleasure
But you won't find me in a store
(first verse)
I've been played so many times, on every kind of phonograph
But now I'm banished to the attic, with the doghouse and the raft
(repeat chorus)
(second verse)
I used to liven up the parties, make the people wanna move
Put a smile on their faces, with the music in my grooves
Now I'm old and gray, no one ever lets me play
They don't ask me for music please, they just throw on their CD's
(repeat chorus)
I'm a piece of history, (but) no one ever uses me
But my grooves still contain the magic, if you just give me a try
(repeat chorus)
ROCK CRITIC
(chorus)
I'm a rock critic, I know what's good for you
My opinions are gospel, 'cause I know the truth
(first verse)
I can build you up, I can knock you down
Call you a dinosaur, if you stick around
I can cut you down, with my poison pen
I want your interview, but I'm not your friend
(repeat chorus)
If you rock 'n' roll, I'll say you play too loud
If you sing the blues, you're cryin' out loud
If you sing a ballad, you're just a wimpy guy
But if you come on macho, you're ego's oversized
(guitar solo)
(repeat chorus)
I can build you up, I can knock you down
Call you a dinosaur, if you dare to stick around
If your record stiffs, I'll say you're too obscure
But if you get a hit, you've sold your soul to be commercial
I'm a rock critic, I'm a rock critic
I'm just a rock critic, I'm a rock critic
