Underground Girl
(Deborah Harry/Frank Infante)
She's an underground girl in her underground world.
She never comes around, she stays underground.
Ask her what's her trip, she just bites her lip.
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground.
She's the girl who's always right.
She's the one who gets uptight.
Ask her how she's been, she'll give you some skin.
Well, hey! Everybody gonna follow her down.
Well, hey! Everybody's gonna go underground.
Well, hey! Everybody wants to be on her side.
No one's around she's gonna take you for a ride. (?)
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground.
Oh, I don't wanna brag, but I know her bag.
Ask her were she's from, she's always playing dumb.
If you beat her with a whip, she just thinks it's hip.
You can see her at night, never in the light.
Here we go!
Where are we going?
I don't know.
Whoa, it's getting dark down here!
We're going way far down.
I think it's getting too deep.
I need quaaludes!
My legs are shaking!

English Boys
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
When I was 17 I saw a magazine.
It had those English boys who had long hair.
When I was on my own they moved into my town, and I just called 'em up and they'd be there.
In 1969 I had a lousy time.
I listened to the songs, read letters sent from Nam.
Now peace and love were gone, the tired soldiers home.
Ideal society gunned down the 70's.
Does it feel the same to you?
Why do you act the way you do?
Pack it up or pack it in.
There's no excuse.
Could the hands of time reverse?
Would we wake or take the ride and again speak with one voice?
We knew each other well although we never met.
Messages passed to tell equal respect.
Coincidence recurred.
I had to laugh a lot.
One week hung up superb, said maybe not.

Susie And Jeffrey
(Deborah Harry/Nigel Harrison)
Even though Jeff was worried, they weren't in a hurry.
They planned a lovely honeymoon.
Sue had a brand new Chevy, conservative, in good taste.
Only 30 payments due.
They had outstanding tickets.
They had no car insurance, but they had lots of things to do.
They were getting organized.
They had their plans all finalized.
The date was set for Saturday.
Susie and Jeffey, they're gonna get married.
They're going for a blood test.
"What if I don't pass my blood test? What about our marriage licence? What if I can't be deprogrammed?"
"Don't act like it's your last chance. We could have fun at the Spahn Ranch. It's not like Gordon Avenue."
Susie and Jeffey, they're gonna get married.
They're going for a blood test.
Jeffrey said "Let's wait."
Sue took her foot off the brake.
He drove into a wall.
"Don't get excited, now don't shout! I'll scratch your eyes out. Now we can't have our honeymoon!"
"Don't touch she's my fiance! Say, but I like the way you play."
An autograph from Orson Welles.
"I'm a fan, here's my record (it's one we can't get programmed) we want to give to all of you."
They had a little argument.
Sue took her foot off the brake.
He drove the car into a wall.
They had a little argument.
Sue took her foot off the brake.
He drove the car into a wall.
They had a disagreement.
Sue took her foot off the brake.
He drove the car into a wall.

Denis
(Neil Levenson)
Oh Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis Denis, oh with your eyes so blue...
Denis Denis, I've got a crush on you.
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you.
Oh when we walk it always feels so nice,
and when we talk it seems like paradise.
Denis Denis I'm so in love with you.
You're my king and I'm in heaven every time I look at you!
When you smile it's like a dream...
And I'm so lucky 'cause I found a boy like you!
(Denis Denis, oh won't you hold me tight?
Denis Denis, please can we kiss all night?
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you.)
Denis Denis, avec tes yeux si bleux, (With your eyes so blue,)
Denis Denis, moi j'ai flashe a nous deux. (I'm always thinking about us.)
Denis Denis, un grand baiser d'eternite. (One deep kiss that will last for ever.)
Denis Denis, je suis si folle de toi. (I'm so crazy about you.)
Denis Denis, oh embrasse-moi ce soir. (Please kiss me tonight.)
Denis Denis, un grand baiser d'eternite. (One deep kiss that will last all night.)

X Offender
(Deborah Harry/Gary Valentine)
I saw you standing on the corner, you looked so big and fine.
I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled - I laid my heart on the line.
You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more.
I thought of my nights, and how they were.
They were filled with...
I know you wouldn't go.
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in.
I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh.
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side.
I look at your life and your style...
I wanted nothing more.
I know you wouldn't go.
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in.
I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh.
Walking the line, you were a marksman.
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless.
Public defender...
You had to admit you wanted the love of a sex offender.
I know you wouldn't go.
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in.
I had to know so I asked, you just had to laugh.
My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell.
And in the trial, you were there with your badge and rubber boots.
I think all the time how I'm going to perpatrate love with you.
And when I get out, there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive to you. 

I'm Gonna Love You Too
(Mauldin/Sullivan/Petty)
You're gonna say you miss me.
You're gonna say you'll kiss me.
You're gonna say you love me 'cause I'm gonna love you too.
I don't care what you told me.
You're gonna say you'll hold me.
You're gonna say you love me 'cause I'm gonna love you too.
After all another fella took ya, but I still can't overlook ya.
I'm gonna do my best to hook ya after all is said and done.
I don't care what you told me.
You're gonna say you'll hold me and you're gonna say you love me 'cause I'm gonna love you too.
You're gonna tell me sweet things.
You're gonna make my heart sing and I'm gonna hear bells ring 'cause I'm gonna love you too.
You're gonna say you miss me and you're gonna say you'll kiss me and you're gonna say you love me 'cause I'm gonna love you too.

I'm gonna love you too.

Island Of Lost Souls
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
In Babylon on the boulevard of broken dreams, my will power at the lowest ebb.
Oh what can I do?
Oh buccaneer!
Can ya help me put my truck in gear?
Can ya take me far away from here, save my soul from sin?

"You wanna get away? You've had it man? Nothing's going right so come sit on the sands of the island! Island of lost souls. No luxuries. No no! Amenities? Too dull! Your senses? Oh oh! Only primitive! Hey hey! Really get away!" is what he said...

Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him.
Where can he be?
He's not with me!
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?

"The sky is blue, the sea is warm and clear, and golden sands are calling out to you. Inviting. Make a new man outta you! You can come for a while, come with a friend, forget about work, start all over again, let the real you through! Here's what we do..."

Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him.
Where can he be?
He's not with me!
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?

Oh-oh oh-oh!
Oh buccaneer!
Can ya help me put my truck in gear?
Can ya take me far away from here, save my soul from sin?

"No luxuries. No no! Amenities? Too dull! Your senses? Oh oh! Only primitive! Hey hey! Really get away! Island of Lost Souls!"

Eee ya ya ya ya ya! Island of Lost Souls. Iya iya iya iya island. Iya island.
Island of lost so oh oh oh oh. Iya iya. Island of lost souls. Forget about work.
Forget about work! Start all over again! Oh oh oh oh. Island of lost souls.
Isla Isla Isla Isla ah. (?) Ayayayaya.
Island of lost so oh oh oh oh. Far away from Babylon. Oh oh oh oh oh. On the boulevard.
Oh oh. Of broken dreams iyayailan. Island of lost so oh oh oh. Oh oh!

Heart Of Glass
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
Once I had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out had a heart of glass.
Seemed like the real thing, only to find mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.
Once I had a love and it was divine.
Soon found out I was losing my mind.
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind.
Mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.

In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine", love is so confusing.
There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you.
It's just no good, you teasing like you do.

Once I had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out had a heart of glass.
Seemed like the real thing, only to find mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.

Lost inside adorable illusion and I cannot hide.
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside.
We coulda made it cruising, yeah.

Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light.
Ooh ooh ooh whoa.
Ooh ooh ooh whoa.
Ooh ooh ooh whoa.
Ooh ooh ooh whoa.

Once I had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out to be a pain in the ass.
Seemed like the real thing only to find mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.

In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine", love is so confusing.
There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you.
It's just no good, you teasing like you do.

Ring Of Fire
(June Carter/Merle Kilgore)
Love is a burning flame.
It makes a fire of rain.
Bound by wild desire, I fell into a ring of fire.
Taste my love is sweet, when hearts like ours meet.
I fell for you like a child.
Oh, the fire went wild.
I fell into a burning ring of fire.
I went down down down, the flame it swept higher.
It burns burns burns, that ring of fire, that ring of fire.

Orchid Club
(Deborah Harry/Nigel Harrison)
Ah ah ah... adventure very near, and then you vanish.
Rescue from invasion narrowly avoided.
Have to live with nature.
Hear a voice from a novel.
Love persuasion very near, and then you vanished.
Some say he's too handsome, some say he's unique.
Steel, the weave, the night trick, aphrodisiac.
Ah oo ah the boy's herb... vanilla, vanilla.
They say I'll never find him or evidence left behind.
Flip a coin to decide it.
Is it now or never?
Have to live with nature.
I hear a voice from a novel.
Love persuasion.
Oh Orchidia.
Steel, the weave, the night trick.
Weave the tale you find.
Reappear in a vision.
My heart's racing with the rhythm.
Even in the drum beat time will tell the story.
Orchidia. Orchidia. Orchidia. Orchidia.
Looking for an adventure.
Here today gone tomorrow.
Articles declaring evidence to follow.
Heart is pumping to the rhythm.
The story is repeated.
AyoooayooayaaaaaaaaaaaaaayayayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayayayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAH!
Where are you, where are you, Orchidia?
Where are you, where are you, Orchidia?
Whoa ooh oh, where are ya, Orchidia?
Orchidia?
Orchidia?

Dragonfly
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
"Greetings, Ladies and Gentlemen of Earth and all native intelligences of the forty planets (,satellites, moons, stars, and any other inhabited orbs) with contestants entered in the annual Grande Trex, the only inter-universal race. This year's event promises excitement to surpass all previous races! As many of you fans know already the route or track of the race, orbits, and glides has been increased by 5000 million kilometers thus enabling Grande Trex to include the B'Arc 15 system (in our present event and for all succeeding GT races)!"

Dragonfly * Dragonfly * Satellite * Strike and fight
Laser light * Shot tonight * Target nullified * Gyro subdivide
Lattitude * Longitude * Satellite * Solid substitute
Dragonfly * Arc revise

What's a drag race?
Can't you see those dragons speeding up the street?
But I learned they weren't real.
Figments of the ancient's fear.

Rapid scan * Radians * For the chance * To win the grande
Maneuvers * Preprogram * Windage * Won't operate
Negative * Bearing swell

Dragons fly, they symbolize in myth and saga breathing fire.
Look up there's one flying higher!
Faster than the SSC.
Is science hiding witchery?

"Grande Trex fans throughout the universe are well informed on the risks the pilots take in entering this race; re-entry into some of the alien atmospheres is tricky business which can cause a craft to implode, explode, melt, lose atomic structure, and so forth, adding to the interstellar degree that on its own is a terrific danger to the ships (while) en route. The surface craft scheduled to launch at 0700.51(00) Greenwich mean time have assembled on one of our very own stars (Neutron Einstar EV 9) for this year's event. And the excitement is at a fevering pitch as the countdown approaches zero!"

Dragonfly * Rations glide * In free fall slide * Systems nullify
Satellite * Dragonfly * Surface launch * Radio silence
Hover high * Level off

The time space tactics saved us then.
Display report. Present urgent.
Sequence counting surface launch.
Dragonfly destroying all.
Science claiming newest findings.
Chanting calling flying dragons.
Aboard all systems optimum.
Nova scheduled, war continued.
Half the continental shelf burned by interval.
Interval.

"We have retained as an added feature of daring, thrills, and excitement of this race, a feature which I'm sure you're going to like, the computer override lasting three and a half hours or two gens, when pilots and co-pilots manually control free-fall, latitude, logitude, protract gravity, revise dimensional equations, run program checks, submerge in the wild oceans of Jonrin 22, and photograph as much territory and terrain as they can in addition to the requisite three thousand automatic shots. The postulate for mischance runs high but not as high as the tension and competitive spirit right here (on Earth) and all over the (4) galaxies (represented in this Seventh Grande Trex)."

Dragonfly * Dragonfly * Beacons aim * Space game

"The countdown is -200 and I am turning you over to the control room at command central (Sia Lan) for the launch. Good luck to all the entrants and especially to our own ship, (the) Dragonfly! (Onward to victory! (Remember comdirect and radio silence will temporarily be in effect.))"

Satellite * Computerized * Mighty flight * Hypersonic glide
Win the race * Calibrate * Reentry place * (Multi) fail safe

"Beacons lasers quasars guns mounted on deck, rapid survey reactor, fail safe radians. Extra points awarded for city salvage delivered at the finish line preferably retaining molecular identity. Each ship one shot at one designated planet with one pass to carry out (objective) and execute retrieve code. Flip axis at will. Computer override duration; 3 1/2 hours or 2 gens for pilot/co-pilot manual control. Exposed photographic material without readable subject matter will not be included in final point total."

For Your Eyes Only
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
Don't look over my shoulder, I'm trying to read.
Remember these intimate moments; don't forget my privacy.
We both have our orders and a trick up the sleeve.
There's no use pretending you're asleep...
The subject was roses: quine geology.
Deliberate notice you're taking of me.
Caution and danger are not family.
Don't try turning the tables on me!
Too long and too lonely...
For your eyes only, secretly.
Enjoy the paradox: you thinking I'm the fox.
Can't ya see you personally?
So many people know who you are
and they know you've been looking for your counterpart.
We're chasing an echo in sonic 3-D
and if I laugh without joking, make believe.
Too long and too lonely...
For your eyes only, totally.
I like what you're showing.
For your eyes only, secretly.
For your eyes only. 

War Child
(Deborah Harry/Nigel Harrison)
I need city lights, defense, and weaponry.
No way of knowing my life expectancy.
I learn resistance like I learn to see.
A living witness.
A lonely refugee.
I'm a war child.
I'm a war baby, and that's the difference between you and me.
I'm a war child.
My occupation is being occupied.
I stop at the corner to be identified.
Across the border they pretend victory.
I'm playing in the rubble and dream of destiny.
You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge.
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news.
PLO lovers courting after the curfew.
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues.

Little Caesar
(Deborah Harry/Chris Stein)
My name is Little Caesar.
My friends call me LC.
My Daddy's named the same and passed it on to me.
I'm the kinda guy who by and by who wants to be your friend.
I'll make you a happy ending.
I loop the loo.
I do it good.
I've been called alot of names, some of them obscene.
But you think I'm funny and wonder about me? I don't worry anymore, get uptight, or fear.
Back in the days of "funny" funny they called me queer.
They used to call me.
They called me rudely.
I'm a love 'em and leave 'em kinda fella, a goodtime gentleman.
Perform my magic for ya then I'll make my plan.
When I'm gone you'll feel so low: obsession out-a-hand.
You'll find I'll linger in your mind.
You can't forgive me.
You won't forget me.
You can't live without me.
Can't live without me.
You'll find there's not enough and that you love too much.
Can't live without me.
You can't live with me.
Can't live without me.
Just call me Caesar.
You can't forgive me.
You won't forget me.
I'm Little Caesar, yea.
