Speed king

Good Golly! said little miss Molly
When she was rockin' in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
When she was rockin' to the east and west
Lucille was oh so real
When she didn't do her daddies will
Come on baby drive me crazy, do it, do it
I'm a speed king - You got to hear me sing
I'm a speed king - See me fly
Saturday night and I just got paid
Gonna fool about, ain't gonna save
Some people gonna rock, some people gonna roll
Gonna have a party to save my soul
Hard headed woman and a soft hearted man
They've been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice, take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down to New Orleans
I'm a speed king - You got to hear me sing
I'm a speed king - See me fly
Good Golly said little miss Molly
When she was rockin' in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
When she was rockin' to the east and west
Some people gonna rock, some people gonna roll
Gonna have a party to save my soul
Come on baby, drive me crazy, do it, do it



Bloodsucker

Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lotta lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't wanna know
Woaaaah no no no
Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay a while, I really love you so
How's about another sip of all the wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here, I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a-puttin' on a show
Woaaaah no no no
You really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lotta lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't wanna know
Woaaaah no no no



Child in time

Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
Line that's drawn between good and bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If you been bad - Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit oh by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes aahouh bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Ooh ooh ooh...
Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
Line that's drawn between good and bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If you've been bad - Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes aahaah bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Ooh ooh ooh...



Flight of the rat

Spread the word around, the rat is leaving town
The message is a song, the misery is gone
Once I had a dream to sing before the Queen
She didn't want to know, she wouldn't see the show
What a fright! I couldn't do it right! Oh what a night!
Mystic demons fly all about the sky
With memories of a clown, the saddest show in town
When I was seventeen my mother said to me
Be careful what you touch, you shouldn't take so much
I blew my mind, she was so kind, I could have cried
In my mind, I had to find 
A kind of new way of being oh so cool
Like a blue blooded well studded English fool
Speak about the past, times are changing fast
Once I was so weak, I couldn't even speak
Shaking out a curse, nothing could be worse
Walking through the door, who could ask for more
Now I'm free, and I can see, and I can see
Spread the word around, the rat is leaving town
The message is a song, the misery is gone
Shaking out a curse, nothing could be worse
Walking through the door, who could ask for more
Now i'm free, and I can see, and I can see
Please stay away 



Into the fire

Take the trouble to decide the things you do
Will not be the things that don't appeal to you
See the mess your makin', can't you see your fakin'
Gonna make it hard for you, you're gonna... into the fire
Turn on the mandrake that was given to you
See if you can make it like the others do
Feel the blood a-knockin' when you're finger poppin'
Gonna make it hard for you, you're gonna... into the fire
Stop your bleeding mind before it's over and done
Listen very closely to the message I've sung
Feel the blood a-knockin' when you're finger poppin'
Gonna get a message through, you're gonna... into the fire



Living wreck

You came along for a weekend
But you only stayed for one night
You pulled off your hair, you took out your teeth
Oh I almost died of fright
You'd better do something for your own sake
Yes it's a shame
Ah you know you're a living wreck
You said you were a virgin
Full of promise and mystery
But I know that you would bring me down
'Cos everyone calls you Big G
You'd better do something for your own sake
Yes it's a shame
Ah you know you're a living wreck



Hard lovin' man

Break my back with hard lovin'
Take my hand and keep movin'
Don't slow down, we're nearly there now
Oh can you stand the pain?
I'm a hard lovin' man
What's your name? It's alright now
Trick or treat? We're uptight now
Wanna feel ya, I wanna hear ya
Oh here we go again
I'm a hard lovin' man
Come back here, it's not over
Can't you see, there's still time girl
I can last, make it fast now
Oh gotta catch a train
I'm a hard lovin' man
