SIGN OF THE HUNTED


(MUSIC: D. COLLETT/LYRICS: N. JOHN- L. BURROWS)


Eyes are shifting from side to side,

I’m watching and waiting,

In position, hand on the phone,

Any second now you’ll be shaking,

You’ve never seen me, don’t know my name,

But I’ve a tape of the deal that you signed,

It’s crystal clear, every single word,

You’re on the run for your life.


(Chorus) Sign of the hunted,

On the Loose your running scared,

Sign of the hunted,

We know it’s you, and you better take care.
Better take care, Oh yeah


You can’t sleep, there’s no release,

There’s a phone ringing inside your head,

It could be day or it could be night,

One mistake you could wind up dead,

And it won’t take me much to prove

Your involvement is clear in every way,

Don’t try to trace me, I’m too far away,

But I’ll be watching your every move,


(Chorus 2) Sign of the hunted,

No way back your running scared,

Sign of the hunted,

We know it’s you, and you better take care.

ANOTHER TIME, ANOTHER PLACE


(MUSIC: S. JONES/LYRICS: N. JOHN)


Standing on the edge of the world

Just a fool and a crazy dancer,

Ridin’ on the merry go-round

I’m out of control the world’s spinnin’ faster,

In my heart it’s judgement day

Who’s gonna wash my tears away?

Sweet god in heaven, I’ve never felt so alone.


(Chorus 1) Another time, Another place,

Chase the sunset of another day,

Another smile, on another’s face,

This life’s as twisted as snakes.

No rest for the wicked souls

No sleep for the just,

The touch of your cold cold beauty

Was beauty enough,

How quickly the wine becomes poison
The halo a noose,

Open my eyes to the darkness

Don’t leave me standing in this cold empty tomb.


(Chorus 2) Another time, another place,

I believe you’re just a lifetime away

Another child, comes to take your place,

But still tonight It’s all as twisted as snakes.



(SOLO-KIETH)

(INSTRUMENTAL/HARMONY SECTION)


(Chorus 3) Another time, another place,
Here’s this dancing fool, mamma watch me shake,

No reason, no rhyme, leads to heaven’s gate,

You leave me prayin’ leave me twisted as snakes

(take me higher aka falsetto scream)


( SOLO BREAKS-KIETH-PAUL)


DANGERLINE


(MUSIC: S. JONES/G, STUART– LYRICS: N. JOHN/L. BURROWS)


I’m on the run and I don’t know why,

I’ve got a gun but it ain’t been fired,

(they call me) Dangerous, on the news,

But this victim is just confused,

They look at me and I look at you,

Just who the hell is telling the truth,

(they got my) Name and my number too,

Won’t somebody tell me what I am gonna do.

There was a time when I could have said no,

Must’ve been a time when I let it all go,

Now I’m in trouble up to my neck and I’m-

Down on my knees.

My name in the papers,

My face on the news at 10,

So tonight I’ll be running,

Running all over again.


(Chorus) When it chills you to the bone,
Hidin’ in the night,

Your heart just turns to stone,

Running on the danger-

Running on the danger-line.

Why be afraid, I did no wrong,

I ain’t shot or hurt no-one,

(I got the) Desperation of a wanted man,

My head in my hands.

Should I stop, why can’t you see,

I’m innocent but they’ll never believe,

(just tonight) Won’t you give me your hands,

Don’t want to die as a lonely, lonely man.

ONE OF THESE DAYS


(WORDS AND MUSIC: SUTCLIFFE/CRAUTE)


(INTRO SOLO’S -GUY-KIETH)


You never listen to a word I say,

You close your mind and you walk away

Said, listen to the radio while it plays,

I’m a-gonna get you, one of these days,

One of these days,

One of these days.


You run around give yourself a bad name,

I really think you ain’t got no shame,

Gotcha picture hanging in ( The back door frame?),

I’m gonna get you, just the same,
One of these days,

One of these days,

(SOLO- PAUL)


(REPEAT VERSE 2)


(SOLO- KIETH)


SPINNING THE WHEEL


(MUSIC: C. GREEN/LYRICS: N. JOHN)


Playin’ dirty, calling all the shots,

Fire is burnin’ in her eyes,

Dealing danger, turning on the heat,

She’s got the power to paralyse.

You think she’s good, you think she’s right for you,

But you don’t know what she’s putting me through.

Running blind, rollin’ like a ball,

Surrender to the will of the night,

Don’t make no difference if it’s black or if it’s red,

She’s gonna cut you down to size.

You think she’s good, you think she’s right for you,

But you don’t know what she’s putting me through.

(Chorus) She’s a crazy kind of lover,

Turning cards upon themselves,

Just waitin’ to deliver,

A different kind of hell,

Spinning the wheel.


Hard and heartless, chill you to the bone,

You’re just another number on the wheel,

Until your dyin’ day, you’ll never realise,

That losin’ wasn’t part of the deal.

You think she’s good, you think she’s right for you,

But you don’t know what she’s putting me through.

(CHORUS)

(SOLO)

You think she’s good, you think she’s right for you,

But you don’t know what she’s putting me through.

MADAME GUILOTINE (TITLE/IDEA: F HALE)


(MUSIC: S JONES/L BURROWS/C GREEN/D O’LEARY-LYRICS: N JOHN)


The fires are burning in the darkened streets,

Through the night I hear the sound of marching feet,

Revolution, is in the air,

Lock your doors, they’ll be calling here.


(Chorus) Under the blade, madame guilotine,

Under the blade, death or victory.

‘For your treason it is the hand of fate,

We find you guilty for crimes against the state.’

Through the torchlight, to execution square,
How the crowds of faceless people cheer,


(CHORUS)


(Middle 8){spoken} The blood of the wealthy,
{spoken} Will stain the streets.

To flow in rivers,

Around my lady’s feet.

The crowds are lining the route to madame’s steps,

To please the masses, I’ll pay my last respects,

I’ll surrender to her shining knife,
Born of noble blood was my only crime.


(CHORUS)

Victory
Victory

FOOLS PARADISE


(MUSIC: S JONES-LYRICS: N JOHN)


Paradise, summer school and oceans blue,

Stealin’ out, nights on the beach.

We lived our lives, as if the moment couldn’t last,

Now those summer days slippin’ out of reach.

Only seventeen, she lookin’ good, she’s a young man’s dream,

There’s a whole wide world a-waitin’ if she wants it.

Packin’ up a suitcase, the summer’s nearly over

And her hometown seems so small,

Same old names and faces, she doesn’t need them anymore


(Chorus) Lonely years, she wanna leave them behind,

Lonely years in the back of her mind,

Lonely lonely years.

It’s all too late (all too late)

All too late (all too late)

If she could live them again, would she still do The same? I don’t know *

She don’t know-know-know.*

She’s livin’ in a fools paradise.

The lights have faded, the photographs have turned to brown,

The ‘famous final scene’, lies on the cutting-room floor.

Words have been wasted, you believed every single

Little white lie that they wrote,

The drug has been tasted,

It can only leave you wanting more and more.


(CHORUS – Not *)

(SOLO – PAUL)

(CHORUS)


WHITE DRESS (LYRICS: C GREEN)


(MUSIC: C GREEN/S JONES/L BURROWS/D O’LEARY)


Someone’s on the streets tonight,

Killer or madman, I don’t know,

Don’t think I’ll go out tonight,

Stay at home and watch the late show,

Footsteps break the subway’s sleep,

Funny, no one has ears for screams,

They found her up by Murphy’s keep,

It’s in the papers, it’s in my dreams.

Cops are smart and they pulled him in,

A poor young drifter who would go to hell,

And everyone can walk the streets again,

‘Cept three young girls and they can’t tell.


(Bridge) Moon-glow and streetlights,

At the end of the day,

Loneliness and the city life,

Make people act this way.


(Chorus) Oh people how you shiver,

Behind your TV safe from sin,

This child you once delivered,

Please, deliver us from him.


You may think that my story’s told,

The men of law cleared up the mess,

‘Young girl missing only ten years old,

Four foot ten, white party dress,’

Worried mother on a TV screen,

Saying ‘Where’s my baby, I want to know,’

But we all knew she’d never see her again,

Still put it on, it makes a good show.

{Spoken}It makes a good show. Lights. Camera

They got him this time, I don’t know how,

Seems that someone just saw his face,

And it’s all back to normal now,

Just this white dress I can’t place.

STEAL AWAY THE NIGHT


(MUSIC: S JONES-LYRICS: N JOHN/ L BURROWS)


So long, I have been before,

In my mind, through an open door,

To search for home, no more

Faraway, looking through the trees,

Faraway, it’s there for you and me,

Faraway, knowing that we’ll never go again,

Ooh, never go again.

Hold on, we’re drifting with the tide,

Looking for a place where we can hide,

Forever, tomorrow holds the key,

The sands of time are running out for me.

See them running out for me
Running out for me

Now at last, the answer is so clear,

You’ll see there’s nothing more for us to fear,

Paradise, forever and a day,

Steal away the night, it’s not too late,

You know it’s not too late
You know it’s not too late
You know it’s not too late


(SOLO – PAUL)


[ Steal away, steal away the night,]

[Steal away, it’s not too late, ]

[Not too late to make a break, ]

Spend the lot they throw you in jail.

Acts like she’s a total disgrace,

Baby got her fingers burned, when the tables were turned,

You wanna see the look on her face.


ALL THAT SHE WANTED,
Shootin’ for the stars, got your head in a spin,

ALL THAT SHE NEEDED

She’s gonna go far,
got her hands in the till.


(BRIDGE) You give her all your money but she still want more

Give her all your money but she still want more,

Gimme all your money but I still want want want more

LAZERWIND


(MUSIC: S JONES/C GREEN/N JOHN-LYRICS: L BURROWS)


The desert furnace, rages on,
Too long since this place last saw rain,

It’s midday now, July has been and gone,

And August’s here on July’s tail.

Be prepared for the struggle ahead,

It makes no difference where you are,

You’re in the sun and the wind is so strong,

You won’t last long, you won’t get far.


(CH 1) They call it lazerwind,

Gonna rip you apart,

Laserwind, heading straight for your heart.

The wind is coming, with no warning,

Never knowing what she does,

She knows no anger, she feels no pain,

No sympathy left for us.


(CH 2) They call it lazerwind,

Ripping flesh and blood apart,

Lazerwind, heading straight for your heart.

(N JOHN/L BURROWS/S JONES/C GREEN)

Electric shock, power through the day. (LEAD – GRAHAM)

You can feel it burning down inside. (LEAD – GRAHAM)

YOUNG LOVER


(N JOHN/S JONES/C GREEN)


It’s 6 in the morning and my baby’s calling me back, again.

I take my place on the factory floor, I feel like my life’s at it’s end.

When that whistle blows I’ll be driving all the way to your door,

When you hold me close I know what I’ve been fighting for.


CHORUS


Young lover, ( first time love)

You can really rock me high

Young lover, ( first time love)

Give me wings and baby let me fly

It’s always the same, down on my knees everyday.

Staring at the clock, watching the hours tick away.

There’s an anger inside me, burning like a fire in the night,

But you cool my heat, make all the pressure worthwhile.

(N JOHN/S JONES/L BURROWS)


Lady luck, is with me once again,

Never say you’re leaving me behind,

I’m just a dreamer, a loser on the run,

You know they say that love is blind.

…….. Chained by your love!

Chained by your love! I’ve been dying,

Trying to leave, I’ve gotta get away.

You! Got me running in circles,

Ever decreasing spiraling down,
a never ending trail of pain.


CHORUS


I’ve been misused every day of my life,

I’ve got no tears left to cry.

But here comes the night, I’ve waited so long,

But here comes the night, I’ve waited so long.

Oooh! Lady luck, is with me once again,

Never say you’re leaving me behind.
