Caught in the crossfire, warning fight
Let's just make our break game
Swept up by the road in waves of the night
Paper Chase for fame
But I was too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I was too, too hot Too hot to handle
Wink of an eye, the feelers run high
The rock and roll malaise
But I ain't no romance
And I ain't no soul chance
Won't get no quick change
And I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
La la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
La la la la, keep on coming
Do it once but never the same
La la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
I'm in your town, won't fool around
I'll make some at your step
Just like the story says, these boys are bad So keep out of shootin' range
La la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
La la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
(Music/Lyrics: Phill Mogg) 4:56
Just a bad situation
Got me low, feelin' down
I'm wonderin' why
Caught me unawares
No one knows and no one cares
They put you down no matter how you try
Put the words together
Feelin' so strong
I can't last forever
I can't hold on, I can't hold on
Somebody, someone is tearin' my whole inside
Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride
Just a little bit of madness
Do you no harm
Another night, another shake down
Lookin' for a place to hide
This could be a nervous breakdown
Just another suicide
Just a cold realization, gotta go I'm gonna turn and run away
Got me in a spin, gonna lose and never win
They put you down no matter what you say
Put the words together
Feelin' so strong
I can't last forever
I can't hold on, I can't hold on
I can't hold on, no no
Another night, another shake down
Lookin' for a place to hide
This could be a nervous breakdown
Just another suicide
Just a bad situation
I can feel it gettin' closer everyday
Say I'm out of line
I'm takin' out of borrowed time
What's the use of tryin' anyway
Put the words together
Feelin' so strong
I can't last forever
I can't hold on, I can't hold on
Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride
Somebody, someone is tearing' my whole inside
Just a little bit of madness
Do you no harm
Another night, another shake down
Lookin' for a place to hide
This could be a nervous breakdown
Just another suicide
Another suicide, another suicide
Another suicide, another suicide

Tell me why were never more than strangers
Tell me why,you never let it show
But when you're close to me
And whisper I need you
In the cold morning light
Try me, oh take me for a little while
Before it's over and you leave me with just a smile
Try me, oh let me be the one
You say it's over
But for me it had just begun
Tell me why we seem no more than strangers
Tell me why, the feelin never goes
But when you're close to me
And whisper I need you
In the cold morning light
(Schenker/Mogg/Way/Parker) 4:31
Wind blows back, and the frightened 'Titan
Whines all the way
Out to the fun all night long
Maybe now your time has come
From the back streets there's a rumblin'
Smell of anarchy
No more nice time, Black boy shoe shines
High in the sky Dreams
Lights out, lights out London
Hold on tight til the end
Better now you know you'll never
Wait til tomorrow
Lights out, lights Out London
Hold on tight til the end
God knows when I'm comin' on my run
Heaven help those who help themselves
That's the way it goes
Frightnin' thoughts we've once been taught
And now it shows
Lights out, lights out London
Hold on tight til the end
Better now you know you'll never
Wait til tomorrow
Lights out, lights Out London
Hold on tight til the end
God knows when I'm comin' on my run
Lights out, lights out London
Hold on tight til the end
Better now you know you'll never
Wait til tomorrow
Lights out, lights Out London
Hold on tight til the end
God knows when I'm comin' on my run
You keep callin', there's no endin'
Tried a thousand times
Under your feet the grass is growing
Time we say goodbye
Lights out, lights out London
Hold on tight til the end
Better now you know you'll never
Wait til tomorrow
Lights out, lights Out London
Hold on tight til the end
God knows when I'm comin' on my run
Lights out, lights out in London
Lights out, lights out in London

You said that was that but this is it
My will to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life
Friends at your back, they stab you with a knife
I must be blind
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
No disconnections as it feels right
I'm ,gettin' ready to hit the line
Can you feel me
Inside and out, I'm just waiting for you
Love is alright
Now I know just what I want to do
I must be blind
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
No disconnections as it feels right
I'm ,gettin' ready to hit the line
When a day breaks, turns you around
And your world upside down
And the visions fade
Rights and wrongs and just where you've gone
I must be blind
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
No disconnections as it feels right
I'm ,gettin' ready to hit the line
Pickin' up is such an awful drag
And I could lose my mind
And all the time when I turned around
I never knew if I could really find you
You said that was that but this is it
My will to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life
Friends at your back, they stab you with a knife
**I must be blind
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
No disconnections as it feels right
I'm ,gettin' ready to hit the line
(Music/Lyrics: Maclean) 2:58
Yeah, said it's alright
I won't forget all the times I've waited patiently
For you
And you do just What you choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
Yeah, I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me
You know, that I could be in love
With almost anyone
I think that people, are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
Yeah, said it's alright
I won't forget all the times I've waited patiently
For you
And you do just What you choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
(Michael Schenker/Phill Mogg/Pete Way) 4:17
On the wires I can hear' you comin'
With a rush and a strummin'
This electric phase ain't no teenage craze
InYour house a Phone is ringin'
Just a hot touch that keeps lingerin'
You said lovin's easy, only if you please
All I need is communication
Not a line on your reputation
I don't want a handshake.
There ain't no big mistake
There's no illusion in this wild confusion
Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe
I'd like to know you better
But I'm goin' down so fast
Help me now to feel it, I just can't conceal it
In time I've got to show you, how it's really got to be
Just let me beYours alone, with your dialin' tone
There's no illusion in this wild confusion
Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe
On the wires I can hear' you comin'
With a rush and a strummin'
This electric phase ain't no teenage craze
InYour house a Phone is ringin'
Just a hot touch that keeps lingerin'
You said lovin's easy, only if you please
All I need is communication
Not a line on your reputation
I don't want a handshake.
There ain't no big mistake
(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Phill Mogg) 7:38
Oh, it's been too many times
And I can't go back
Night bars, -guitars, rundown motels like shacks
What it amounts up to I don't want it at all
I lost you and I want you today
Misty green and blue
Oh, to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Oh, to love to love you
Oh, to be something
To be near you
Don't say that you'll never know
Oh, to love to love you
Half the time it could seem funny
The other half is just too sad
This west bound moon's only rise and fall
I lost you and I want you today
Misty green and blue
Oh, to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Oh, to love to love you
To be something
To be near you
I don't know where I'm goin' to
I've tried and I need you to stay
