Smoke on the Water
Song by Deep Purple
We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile, yeah
We didn't have much time now
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
(Smoke) on the water, you guys are great
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
He was pulling kids out the ground now
When it all was over
Find another place
Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
Burn it down
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty, cold and bare
The Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Huh, making our music there now
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know, I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
(I can't hear anything)
one more time
(Smoke on the water) hey!

"I Don't Believe In Love"
Queensyche
I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me
I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
She said she'd meet me on the other side
But I knew right then, I'd never find her
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No more nightmares, I've seen them all
From the day I was born, they've haunted my every move
Every open hand's there to push and shove
No time for love it doesn't matter
She made a difference
I guess she had a way
Of making every night seem bright as day
Now I walk in shadows, never see the light
She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I need to forget her face, I see it still
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No chance for contact
There's no raison d'etre
My only hope is one day I'll forget
The pain of knowing what can never be
With or without love it's all the same to me
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
The pain that you feel
Breaking the Law
Song by Judas Priest
There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life
You know what it's called
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future, I can't even start
I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart
You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing
You doing to me now
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You don't know what it's like
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So Young, So Bad
Song by Mayday
Spend my morning in the schoolyard
Spend the evening on the boulevard
You're like a woman trapped in a cage
It's so hard to act your age
When you're so young, so bad
You're so young, so bad (how could you be)
So young, and so good to me
The girls at school won't even hold hands
But you're going with the singer in a rock and roll band
You should be home doing your history
But you're dancing and a-drinking with a fake I.D.
And you're so young, so bad
You're so young, so bad (how could you be)
So young, and so good to me
Two more years and you'll be seventeen
But you'll be burned out and wasted from the things you've seen
Or just be getting your second wind
And starting everything all over again
You should be home playing with your toys
Instead of here playing with the boys
Your daddy's got detectives following you
But they're getting such a kick out of the things you do
And you're so young, so bad
You're so young, so bad (how could you be)
So young, so good to me
How could you be so young, so bad
So young, so bad
So young, so good to me
How could you be so young, so bad
So young, so bad
So young, so good to me
How could you be so young, so bad
So young, so bad
So young, so good to me
How could you be so young, so bad
So young, so bad
So young, so good to me
How could you be so young, so bad
So young, so bad

Thunderstruck
Song by AC/DC
Thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder
I was caught
In the middle of a railroad track (thunder)
I looked 'round
And I knew there was no turning back (thunder)
My mind raced
And I thought, what could I do? (Thunder)
And I knew
There was no help, no help from you (thunder)
Sound of the drums
Beating in my heart
The thunder of guns
Tore me apart
You've been
Thunderstruck
Rode down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through to Texas, yeah, Texas, and we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules
Played all the fools
Yeah, yeah, they, they, they blew our minds
And I was shaking at the knees
Could I come again, please?
Yeah, them ladies were too kind
You've been
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah, yeah, yeah, thunderstruck
Ooh, thunderstruck, yeah
I was shaking at the knees
Could I come again, please? Oh
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah, yeah, yeah, thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah, yeah, yeah, said, yeah, it's alright, we're doin' fine
Yeah, it's alright, we're doin' fine, so fine
Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, whoa, baby, baby
Thunderstruck, you've been thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, you've been thunderstruck
PART TWO!
Run to the Hills
Song by Iron Maiden
White man came across the sea
He brought us pain and misery
He killed our tribes, he killed our creed
He took our game for his own need
We fought him hard, we fought him well
Out on the plains we gave him hell
But many came, too much for Cree
Oh, will we ever be set free?
Riding through dust clouds and barren wastes
Galloping hard on the plains
Chasing the redskins back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom the stab in the back
Women and children are cowards, attack
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Soldier blue in the barren wastes
Hunting and killing's a game
Raping the women and wasting the men
The only good Indians are tame
Selling them whiskey and taking their gold
Enslaving the young and destroying the old
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Yeah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Run to the hills
Run for your lives
Run to the hills
Run for your lives

Bringin’ On the Heartbreak
Song by Def Leppard
Gypsy sittin', lookin' pretty
The broken rose with laughin' eyes
You're a mystery, always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searching, searching for a feeling
That it's easy come and easy go
Oh, I'm sorry but it's true
You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me
Oh, can't you see?
You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see?
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see? Oh
You're such a secret, misty-eyed and shady
Lady, how you hold the key
Oh, you're like a candle, your flame slowly fadin'
Burnin' out and burnin' me, can't you see?
Just tryin' say to you
You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me
Oh, can't you see?
You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see?
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see? Can't you see?
No, no, no!
You got the best of me
Oh can't you see?
You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see?
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Livin’ on a Prayer
Song by Bon Jovi
Once upon a time, not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks, union's been on strike
He's down on his luck, it's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day, working for her man
She brings home her pay, for love, mmm, for love
She says, "We've gotta hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot"
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock, now he's holding in
When he used to make it talk so tough, ooh, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers
"Baby, it's okay, someday"
We've gotta hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Livin' on a prayer
Oh, we've gotta hold on, ready or not
You live for the fight when that's all that you've got
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Whoa, we're half way there
Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it, I swear
Whoa oh

Poison
Song by Alice Cooper
Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (and pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (deep in)
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna to hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna to kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison (poison)
I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Yeah, well I don't want to break these chains
Poison (poison)
Runnin' deep inside my veins
Burnin' deep inside my brain (poison)
Poisoning (poison)
I don't want to break these chains (poison)
Poison
(Poison) I don't want to break these chains (poison)

Fear Of The Dark
Bob Catley
As the fog moves in silence
Not a sound disturbs the peace
On "middle earth"
And the cold gloom seems timeless
As she waits to fall asleep
On "middle earth"
Where do we go
To stop remembering?
Where do we go
To start again?
Now the full moon is climbing
Through her window like a thief
On "middle earth"
To the black room she lies in
As she prays 'my soul to keep'
On "middle earth"
Where do we go
To find the remedies?
How could we know
It never ends?
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
Through the tears as her heart despairs
And it tears her apart, revealing
Every piece, every part is scared
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
In her mind it's beyond compare
For there's no turning back, no leaving
While her fear of the dark is there
It's a nightmare, this island
She remains, her world in chains
On "middle earth"
It's a private asylum
Locked away till daylight breaks
On "middle earth"
And after all
Who can prepare for this?
We're just like
Candles in the wind
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
Through the tears as her heart despairs
And it tears her apart, revealing
Every piece, every part is scared
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
In her mind it's beyond compare
For there's no turning back, no leaving
While her fear of the dark is there
Daylight is fading
So rest your weary head upon my cheek
For the measure of the day
The light is hours away
Tonight could hold the key to set you free
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
Through the tears as her heart despairs
And it tears her apart, revealing
Every piece, every part is scared
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
In her mind it's beyond compare
For there's no turning back, no leaving
While her fear of the dark is there
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
Through the tears as her heart despairs
And it tears her apart, revealing
Every piece, every part is scared
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
In her mind it's beyond compare
For there's no turning back, no leaving
While her fear of the dark is there
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
Through the tears as her heart despairs
And it tears her apart, revealing
Every piece, every part is scared
It's a fear of the dark she's feeding
In her mind it's beyond compare
For there's no turning back, no leaving
While her fear of the dark is there
