Tunnel Of Love (8:50) lyrics

getting crazy on the waltzers but it's the life that I choose
sing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a torture tattoo
and I been riding on a ghost train where the cars they scream and slam
and I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd always tell you where I am

in a screaming ring of faces I seen her standing in the light

Romeo And Juliet (5:50) lyrics

A love struck Romeo, sings THE STREETS A serenade
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made
Finds a street light, steps out of the shade
Says something like, You and me babe, how about it?

Juliet says, Hey it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack
He's underneath the window, she's singing, 'Hey la, my boyfriend's back

Skateaway (6:15) lyrics

I seen a girl on a one way corridor
stealing down a wrong way street
for all the world like an urban toreador
she had wheels on on her feet
well the cars do the usual dances
same old cruise and the kerbside crawl
but the rollergirl she's taking chances
they just love to see her take them all

no fears alone at night she's sailing through the crowd

Expresso Love (5:00) lyrics

she gets the sun in the daytime
perfume in the dusk
and she comes out in the night time
with the honeysuckle musk
because she smells just like a rose
and she tastes just like a peach
she got me walking where the wildlife goes
i'd do anything to reach her

and she was made in heaven
heaven's in the world
is this just expresso love
you know i'm crazy for the girl

she call me just to talk

Hand In Hand (4:46) lyrics

the sky is crying the streets are full of tears
rain come down wash away my tears
and all this writing on the wall
oh i can read between the lines
rain come down forgive this dirty town
rain come down and give this dirty town
a drink of water a drink of wine

if i been hard on you i never chose to be
i never wanted no one else
i tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to

Solid Rock (3:17) lyrics

well take a look at that
i made a castle in the sand
saying this is where it's at you know
couldn't understand now
if i realised that the chances were slim
how come i'm so surprised when the tide rolled in

i wanna live on solid rock
i'm gonna live on solid rock
i wanna give i don't wanna be blocked
i'm gonna live on solid rock

well i'm sick of potential
i'm sick of vanity now

Les Boys (4:06) lyrics

les boys do cabaret
les boys are glad to be gay
they're not afraid now
disco bar in germany
les boys are glad to be
upon parade now

les boys got leather straps
les boys got ss caps
but they got no gun now
get dressed up get a little risque
got to do a little s m these days
it's all in fun now

les boys come on again
for the high class whores
and the businessmen
who drive in their mercedes benz

Les Boys lyrics

les boys do cabaret
les boys are glad to be gay
they're not afraid now
disco bar in germany
les boys are glad to be
upon parade now

les boys got leather straps
les boys got ss caps
but they got no gun now
get dressed up get a little risque
got to do a little s & m these days
it's all in fun now

les boys come on again
for the high class whores
and the businessmen
who drive in their mercedes benz
