1. Tragedy

Well the music's slowly dyin'
And I'm jumpin' out of my jeans
I jump into the bed
You're there already waitin' for me
Ain't this the perfect way to spend the night
There ain't no better way of killing time
Than loving you surer than I do

It's sweet sixteen
And I'm getting inside of you
Well this is hot stuff, mama
Tastes, it sure tastes good, yes it does
It's maybe cold outside
But in you the fire is burning
And when you want me, woman, I know
Love is turning

Oh tragedy
Let's get lost in the symphony on the radio
First a little bit too fast
Then a little bit much too slow

Oh tragedy
Life reminds me 'bout a symphony I heard today
First a little bit too fast
Then a little bit much too slow for me

I wake up in the morning
And I feel a pain in my head
If it's rest I need I'd rather be dead
No destinations in this life I live
No expectations, I just drift and drift and drift

Life is like tragedy
Reminds me of a symphony on the radio
First a little bit too fast
Then a little bit much too slow

Oh tragedy
Life reminds me 'bout a symphony I heard today
First a little bit too fast
Then a little bit much too slow for me
For me, let's go

Oh tragedy
Life reminds me 'bout a symphony I heard today
First a little bit too fast
Then a little bit much too slow for me
For me, oh

2. Village Girl

You look like a village girl to me
But you stepped into my life from a magazine
You sound like a village girl to me
But you worked into my life on the record machine

Oh village girl, village girl
Yes you sure make me hot
Well
Yeah

You can't imagine all the things I'd do
If I'd only get a night... to share with you
If I call you... tell me would you come, baby
Would you try me... and check out

Oh check out how good I, how good I really am

You became a legend in my life
When I saw you in a picture topless
You were topless, mama
Oh yes your music means a lot to me
But your face and your body, they drive me crazy

The only love that makes sense to me
It's sex and that's what I'd like to share with you

My imagination always runs away with you
When I'm with any other girls, yes, I imagine I'm with you
And the morning after... when I hear the laughter
The only thing between us two... would be the memory

Just one time
Oh check out how good, how good I really am

3. Stop Cryin'

Sweet seventeen
Your face is on a beauty magazine, yeah
Sweet seventeen
Your body's an osais for sex dreams, yeah yeah

It's sometimes hard to understand what you mean
That's when you think nothing matters to me
But I'm tryin' so hard to understand
It's not that easy to be your man

And you know that I know you'll leave me soon
And I know that you know I been thinkin' of it too

Sweet seventeen
It hurts me... whenever you are gone
Sweet seventeen
You really know... how to turn me on
Turn me on, girl

'Cause the whole world's cryin' with you
Please stop cryin'
'Cause the whole world's cryin' with you
Oh yes the whole world's cryin' with you

I don't wanna lose you and I hope I never will
I don't ever wanna lose you after all these years
It took a long time to find out who you are
It took even longer to get this far
'Cause there's been bad times too... aside of the laughs, girl yeah
But I hope and pray we'll make it somehow
We're gonna make it, make it if we really try
Make it if we really try, oh

Blow your horn, Mike!

Sometimes hard to understand what you mean
That's when you think nothing matters to me
But I'm tryin' so hard to understand
It's not that easy to be your man

Sweet seventeen
Your face is on a beauty magazine
Yes it is
Sweet seventeen
Your body's an osais for sex dreams
My dreams

So please stop cryin'
'Cause the whole world's cryin' with you
Please stop cryin'
'Cause the whole world's cryin' with you
Oh yes the whole world's cryin' with you
Wow!

4. Don't Never Leave Me

Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now

The lights are slowly goin' down on the Times Avenue
And me, I'm all alone watchin' the rain fallin' down on my face
A crowd of people passing by
I don't think they recognize me
They fade away... into the night
That's when I think about you

I start living in the memory of you

And the memory of all them things
That you and me used to do
Yeah, there's just one thing I wanna tell you
I wanna tell you how much I really love you
And I really do

Watchin' the rain fallin' down on my face
A subway train is passing by
Driving into the night
I jump inside 'cause I ain't got nowhere to sleep
That's when I think about you

I start living in the memory of you

And all theem funny things
That you and me used to do
You remember, you remember all them things
That you and me used to do
Don't forget, don't bloody never forget

I start living in the memory of you

And the sweet taste of your lips
And the sweet taste of your body
And the sweet taste of the lips between your legs...

5. Lost In The City

Please operator, please operator
This is the first time I'm with a woman
Please operator, please operator
This is the first time I'm with a woman

Well years can change and we become much older
Oh but we don't always realize
And it becomes harder and harder

I'm hangin' up my telephone
How come you don't ever come

7. Cheyenne

I don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna see you cry
I don't wanna hurt you once more
I don't wanna leave now
I don't wanna sight for sore eyes... but here are all the tears that we cried

Hey, come 'ere with the guitar
Okay

Recall the times we met
So wild, wild and free
We had our ups and had our downs
And the sweet sweet rock'n'roll playin' on the radio

We grew up and learned the rules
You gotta fight to win otherwise you lose
You were in prison for your liberty
Never ever showed me no sympathy

Remenber that night, oh you made me cry
I almost lost my mind
And... proved
That the winners was you and the loser was me... that night
The endless lonely night
I just can't think of you with another man
Oh Cheyenne, you this time, this time

Just stay right where you are
I'll pick you up anyway
Any day around I'll be with you
You don't have to worry
Baby, don't you worry
You don't have to worry anymore

You told me that I was too sensitive
But I didn't ask for sympathy
All I wanted was to love you softly with the sweet sweet rock'n'roll playin' on the radio

I tried hard to define my feelings, I tried to hide 'em inside
Tried to push your love away
But you must have seen the fire burn in my eyes
It's still burning

Stay right where you are
I'll pick you up anyway
Any day around I'll be with you
You don't have to worry
Baby, don't you worry
You don't have to worry anymore

It's hard to believe we're livin' proof
I can't believe we can't relive it
If you see me walkin' down the street
Just raise your window to the sweet sweet sound of rock'n'roll
Sweet sweet sound of rock'n'roll

Just stay right where you are
I'll pick you up anyway
Any day around I'll be with you
You don't have to worry
Baby don't you worry...
Stay right where you are
I'll pick you up anyway
Any day around I'll be with you
You don't have to worry
Baby, don't you worry
You don't have to worry no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more...

8. 11th Street Kidzz

Well accidents... happen about every day
And that day was special for quite a heat wave
The rush hour just began... and I ran for my life
I can't afford to miss the bus so I'll miss all the fuss
'Cause this time... it's a must
I'll go and meet the boys and Susie
I just can't miss her tonight
And I'm so hot, gee I'm so hot

Well is she tight, is she in need of a lover like me
And there she is now
I gotta go... and give her a great big kiss
Well now that I'm in her, I don't wanna lose her
These moments are takin' me to heaven
But they don't seem to take her – anywhere at all
I wonder what went wrong
Please tell me what went wrong

Remember all the nights we wrote it on the walls that words never die
And recall all the nicer days we spent underground
Underground

Well accidents... happen about every day
And that day was special... 'cause Peter was taken away
And Susie, she moved to another town
So here I am all alone in the summer heat
Looking at this empty street
All there's left... is writing on the walls
I wonder where all the 11th Street kids are today
Where have they gone

9. Walking With My Angel

оригинал: Bobby Vee

All right now!

Well ain't no guy now
Who ever try to put me down
When I'm walking, walking... with my angel
Whoah oh

'Cause every guy I see... is wishin' that he were me
Now when I'M walking, walking... with my angel

When we're rollin' hand in hand... I'm as happy as can be
'Cause she's the prettiest girl in town and everone can see – she belongs to me
And I feel so proud, it's as good as walking on a cloud
When I'm walking, walking... with my angel
Ow!

When we're rollin' hand in hand... I'm as happy as can be
'Cause she's the prettiest girl in town and everone can see – she belongs to me
And I feel so proud, it's as good as walking on a cloud
Now when I'm walking, walking... with my angel
And when I'm walking, walking... with my angel
And I'm walking, walking... with my angel

10. Pretender

Pretender... causin' panic in the streets, men are crawling at her feet
She makes it burn, burn, burn down
But I know just where from, yeah
I know she ain't worth nothin' but I go wild, wild, wild... all night

Sweet pretender, you make me lose my concentration
And I can't stop it no more, I can't fall
Money can't buy your happiness
It just picks you up to shoot you down
You go down, down, down, down

And I been searchin', and I been learnin' to
The love you pretend to have, it just can be so cruel

I'm going crazy
But I'm a crazy
But I'm too lazy to help myself from you

The doctor couldn't help me with his pills
Said no way I could cure your ill
Get rid of the chick... and be aware
She lies about... how much she cares

Well Mommy and Daddy think I am a fool
'Cause I told 'em that I leave for good
Don't care about no pretenders... anymore, anymore
There'll be rockin' teenage party on Saturday night
I'll find a new chick and I'll pull her right
Well I don't care what the people might say as long as I go wild

Oh pretender, such a sweet pretender
The dirty things... that we do
Just you and me
You make me lose my mind
Pretender
Pretender, pretender
