I Go Crazy (May) lyrics

Yeah yeah - ha ha
Let's go - let's go - let's go

Yeah, I took my baby dancing
To see a heavy band
I never saw my baby till the encore
She had the singer by the hand

I didn't wanna cry 'cos I had to be cool
I didn't wanna tell you that you're much too cruel
Did you have to run off with that doggone fool

All I gotta do is think about you
Ev'ry night and day - I go crazy

Under Pressure lyrics

Pressure pushing down on me, pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure, that burns a building down
Splits a family in two, puts people on streets

It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming... let me out!
Pray tomorrow, takes me higher
Pressure on people, People on streets

Chipping around, kick my brains round the floor

Cool Cat lyrics

Oooh yeah yeah yeah yeah!
You're taking all the sunshine away
Making out like you're the main line (I knew that)
Because you're a cool cat
Tapping on the toe with a new hat
Oooh just cruising, Driving along like the swing king
Feeling the beat of my heart, huh!
Feeling the beat of my heart

Oooh you're a cool cat, coming on strong with all the chit chat

Las Palabras De Amor (The Words Of Love) lyrics

Las Palabras De Amor (The Words Of Love)
Written by Brian May

Don't touch me now
Don't hold me now
Don't break the spell darling, now you are near
Look in my eyes
And speak to me
Those special promises I long to hear
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Love me slow and gently
One foolish world, so many souls
Senselessly hurled through the never ending cold

Calling All Girls lyrics

Calling all boys, calling all girls
Calling all people on streets, around the world
Take this message, a message for you
This message is old, yeah
This message is true, this message is
This message is, this message is, this message is

Love, take a message of love, Far and near
Take a message of love, for all to hear, for all to hear

Some sleepless nights in wait for you

Life Is Real (Song For Lennon) lyrics

Guilt stains on my pillow, Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet, Shadows from my past
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, so real
Sleeping is my leisure, Waking up in a minefield
Dream in just a pleasure dome, Love is a roulette wheel
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, oh yeah

Success is my breathing space, I brought it on myself

Put Out The Fire lyrics

They called him a hero, In the land of the free
But he wouldn't shake my hand boy, He disappointed me
So I got my hand gun, And I blew him away
That critter was a bad guy, And I had to make him pay

You might fear for my reason, I don't care what they say
Look out baby it's the season, For the mad masquerade
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire

Action This Day lyrics

This street honey is a mean street
Living in this street honey needs a mean streak
We've got criminals living in this street
But there's a heart beat pulse, That keeps on pumping
Like a juke box playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I got a feeling this world is using me

This town honey is a dead town
Living in this town honey is a let down

Body Language lyrics

Give me, body, give me, body, body
Give me, your body
Don't talk, don't talk, don't talk, don't talk
Baby, don't talk
Body language, body language, body language
Give me your body, Just give me, yeah, your body
Give me, yeah, your body
Don't talk

Body language, huh, huh
Body language, body language

You got red lips, snakes in your eyes
Long legs, great thighs

Back Chat lyrics

Yeah
Get back, get back

Back chat, back chat, You burn all my energy
Back chat, back chat, Criticizing all you see
Back chat, back chat, Analysing what I say
Back chat, back chat, And you always get your way
Oh yeah! See what you've done to me

Back chat, back chat, It's driving me insane
Survival to the end, Knock you down you come again

Dancer lyrics

I'm not invited to the party, Been sitting here all night
I'm all alone at the party, I don't feel all right
Ain't got no black coat, Ain't got no tie
I gotta shape up now, Come on baby, you gotta know why
Take off!

Dancer, dancer, I can't live with it I'm gonna die without it
Dancer, dancer, Ain't no doubt about it

Staying Power lyrics

Let me show it to you, yeah

See what I got - I got a hell of a lot
Tell me what you feel, Is it real, is it real?
You know I got what it takes, and I can take a lot
Did you hear the last call baby?
You and me got staying power yeah! You and me we got staying power
Staying power (I got it, I got it)

I wonder when we're gonna make it, I wonder when we're gonna shake it

Radio Ga Ga lyrics

Radio Ga Ga
Written by Roger Taylor

Radio - radio
I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio

You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds - invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh - you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly
Radio

So don't become some background noise

Tear It Up lyrics

Tear It Up
Written by Brian May

Are you ready ?
Well are you ready ?
We gonna tear it up - yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Turn me loose it
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Wooh hoo

Hey, give me your mind baby give me your body
Yeah, give me some time baby let's have a party
It ain't no time for sleepin' baby
Soon it's round your street I'm creeping
You better be ready

We gonna tear it up
Stir it up

It's A Hard Life lyrics

It's A Hard Life
Written by Freddie Mercury

I don't want my freedom
There's no reason for living with a broken heart

This is a tricky situation
I've only got myself to blame
It's just a simple fact of life
It can happen to any one

You win - you lose
It's a chance you have to take with love
Oh yeah - I fell in love
But now you say it's over and I'm falling apart

Yeah yeah
It's a hard life

Man On The Prowl lyrics

Man On The Prowl
Written by Freddie Mercury

Oh yeah
I'm gonna take a little walk on the wild side
I'm gonna loosen up and get me some gas
I'm gonna get me some action
Go crazy, driving in the fast lane
My baby left me alone
She done me dirty and I'm feeling so lonely
So come home, come home
If you don't you're gonna break my heart

Man on the prowl
You better watch out

Machines (Or 'Back To Humans') lyrics

Machines (or 'Back To Humans')
Written by Roger Taylor, Brian May

- "Machines machines machines machines"
- "Machines machines machines machines aaah"

It's a machines world
Don't tell me I ain't got no soul
When the machines take over
It ain't no place for rock and roll - ha

They tell me I don't care
But deep inside I'm just a man
They freeze me they burn me
They squeeze me they stretch me

I Want To Break Free lyrics

I Want To Break Free
Written by John Deacon

I want to break free
I want to break free
I want to break free from your lies
You're so self satisfied I don't need you
I've got to break free
God knows, God knows I want to break free

I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love for the first time
And this time I know it's for real
I've fallen in love, yeah
God knows, God knows I've fallen in love

Keep Passing The Open Windows lyrics

Keep Passing The Open Windows
Written by Freddie Mercury

This is the only life for me - yeah
Surround myself around my own fantasy
You just gotta be strong and believe in yourself
Forget all the sadness 'cause love is all you need
Love is all you need

Do you know what it's like to be alone in this world
When you're down and out on your luck and you're a failure

Hammer To Fall lyrics

Hammer To Fall
Written by Brian May

Yeah
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady mercy won't be home tonight

Yeah, you don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
Hey, we're just waiting
For the hammer to fall - yeah

Oh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away

Is This The World We Created... lyrics

Is This The World We Created...?
Written by Brian May, Freddie Mercury

Just look at all those hungry mouths we have to feed
Take a look at all the suffering we breed
So many lonely faces scattered all around
Searching for what they need

Is this the world we created...?
What did we do it for
Is this the world we invaded
Against the law
So it seems in the end
