With her killer graces And her secret places That no boy can fill With her hands on her hips Oh and that smile on her lips Because she knows that it kills me With her soft French cream Standing in that doorway like a dream I wish she'd just leave me alone Because French cream won't soften them boots And French kisses will not break that heart of stone With her long hair falling And her eyes that shine like a midnight sun Oh she's the one She's the one

Take these broken wings And learn to fly again Learn to live so free When we hear the voices sing The book of love will open up and let us in Take these broken wings

I want you to want me I need you to need me I'd love you to love me I'll shine up my old brown shoes I'll put on a brand new shirt I'll get home early from work If you say that you love me

Broken ice still melts in the sun And ties that are broken can often be one again We're soul alone And soul really matters to me Take a look around You're out of touch I'm out of time (time) But I'm out of my head when you're not around You're out of touch I'm out of time (time) But I'm out of my head when you're not around

Go on, go, walk out the door Turn around now You're not welcome anymore You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye Think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die? No, not I, I will survive Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got my life to live And all my love to give and I will survive I, I, I will survive

The night is calling, I have to go The wolf is hungry, he runs the show He's licking his lips, he's ready to win On the hunt tonight for love at first sting Here I am Rock you like a hurricane (are you ready, baby?) Here I am Rock you like a hurricane

I went back to Ohio But my city was gone There was no train station There was no down-town South Howard had disappeared All my favorite places My city had been pulled down Reduced to parking spaces

And the sign said "Everybody welcome Come in, kneel down and pray" But when they passed around the plate at the end of it all I didn't have a penny to pay So I got me a pen and a paper And I made up my own little sign I said, "Thank you, Lord, for thinkin' 'bout me I'm alive and doin' fine" Woo!

I had to use one of these in Calculus class.

I'm going up the country Baby, don't you wanna go? I'm going up the country Baby, don't you wanna go? I'm going to some place Where I've never been before I'm going, I'm going Where the water tastes like wine I'm going where the water tastes like wine We can jump in the water Stay drunk all the time

Every time I think of you It always turns out good Every time I've held you I thought you understood People say a love like ours Will surely pass But I know a love like ours Will last and last

It's my freedom Ah, don't worry 'bout me, babe I got to be free, babe Hey Doot do do do do doot doot Living in the U.S.A Doot do do do do doot doot Living in the U.S.A

They'll stone you when you're at the breakfast table They'll stone you when you are young and able They'll stone you when you're trying to make a buck They'll stone you and then they'll say good luck But I would not feel so all alone Everybody must get stoned

Those crazy nights, I do remember in my youth I do recall, those were the best times, most of all In the heat with a blue jean girl Burnin' love comes once in a lifetime She found me singing by the rail road track Took me home, we danced by moonlight Those summer nights are callin', Stone in love Can't help myself I'm fallin' Stone in love

Going to the city, got you on my mind, Country sure is pretty, I'll leave it all behind, This is my decision, I'm coming home to stay this time 'Cause I'm a fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city, Fool for the city, I'm a fool for the city

Everybody plays the fool, sometime There's no exception to the rule Listen, baby, it may be factual, may be cruel I want to tell ya that Everybody plays the fool

Well, I've got a brand-new pair of roller skates You've got a brand-new key I think that we should get together And try them on to see I've been looking around a while You've got something for me Oh, I've got a brand-new pair of roller skates You've got a brand-new key

I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line? And he said, "Eatin' purple people and it sure is fine" But that's not the reason that I came to land "I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band" Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater (We wear short shorts) Friendly little people eater What a sight to see

See the smile awaitin' in the kitchen Through cookin' and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold me In the evening when the day is through Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowing through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

There is someone walking behind you Turn around, look at me There is someone watching your footsteps Turn around, look at me There is someone who really needs you It's my heart in my hand Turn around (turn around) Look at me (look at me) Understand, understand

Well you can tell everyone I'm a down disgrace Drag my name all over the place I don't care anymore You can tell everybody 'bout the state I'm in You won't catch me crying 'cause I just can't win I don't care anymore I don't care anymore, d'you hear?

I've got the world on a string I'm sitting on a rainbow Got that string around my finger What a world, what a life, I'm in love

I would love to see Paul McCartney or Bruce Springsteen, but more than the price is the fact that I don’t want to have to stand for 3+ hours listening to the people around me sing along badly and blocking my view with their phones. My concert attendance now consists of seeing Peter Noone and Herman’s Hermits at the NYS Fair on Senior Day for free.
