Just A Game
Wizards of a modern age cast spells of electric power
But
the corporate strings that make them dance
Lead up to an ivory tower
There
sit the fates in solitude, far from the public eye
No one ever sees them
smile and nothing makes them cry
Welcome to the kingdom, the land of bought and sold
A world
of real-life fantasy where truths are seldom told
Try hard to remember all
that glitters is not gold
You can pay the piper, but you cannot buy his soul
It's just a game, you're in it all the way
It's just a
game, don't let yourself slip away
It's such a shame, I heard somebody say
It's just a game, and all I can do...is play
What you do choose, now, what do you believe, now
Who are
you gonna trust?
All you dreams and fancy schemes
Just crumble into dust
Calm and cool and computerized to calculate and collect
We
wait and watch and wonder
Just which puppet they'll select
Like the moth, too near the flame,
Who learned his truth
too late
We're all too deep into the game
That is the master of our fate
The poets and the pipers have got their motives
And you've
got yours, no doubt
And so the game continues
That's what it's all
about...
Killing Time
Hanging out on the corner,
He's got no place to go.
She
sits in an empty bedroom
Playing the radio.
Everyday regretting
All the
things never tried;
Everyday they're dyin'
Just a little bit more inside.
All the lonely people,
Waiting all their lives,
They're
empty and they're aching;
You can see it in their eyes.
Time is slipping away, it's just passing them by,
They're
wondering why but it's gone,
Gone forever my friend,
And it won't come
again
So don't try to pretend you feel
Fine! Killing time, killing time...
You feel it's now or never,
But the words don't seem to
come.
The fabric of your dreams
Starts to come undone.
You realize it's
over,
Before it has begun.
You're reaching for something special
But
that someone never comes.
You're on your own now,
But you're living out a lie.
This killing time is wasting you,
I can see it in your eyes.
Time is slipping away, it's just passing you by,
You're
wondering why, but it's gone,
Gone forever my friend,
And it won't come
again
So don't try to pretend you feel
Fine! Killing time, killing time...
The time we waste on hate,
Full of anger and jealousy.
The times we act so cruel,
All the times you turned on me.
All those
lonely yesterdays
When we were killing time.
I needed you more than ever;
Couldn't you see it in my eyes?
Time was slipping away,
Passing us by, now I could cry
Cause it's gone. Gone forever my friend
And it won't come again;
It's
moved on and left us behind...
Time is slipping away, passing you by,
You're wondering why
but it's gone,
Gone forever my friend,
And it won't come again
So don't
try to pretend you feel
Fine! Killing time, killing time...
Let The Light Shine On Me
I've walked beside you through a thousand dreams
Sometimes
I wonder where the journey leads
We never seem to get to where we want to
go...no...
I won't betray the trust you have in me
I'll never lose my
faith in what can be
Don't ever be afraid to let your feelings show...no...
Nothing to fear, no place to hide
We got to face the truth inside
Let the light that shines in your eyes shine on me
Let it
shine forever
Let the light shine on me
We can build a dream together now
One in a million are the odds we face
One in a million
that's a chance I'll take
Cause when the moment comes I'll take my chance
with you
And when it's more than you can bear
You call my name and I'll be
there
So hard to find your way out of the dark
Let the light
shine from your heart...
Magic Power
Somethin's at the edge of your mind, you don't know what it is
Somethin' you were hopin' to find but your not sure what it is
Then you hear
the music and it all comes crystal clear
The music does the talkin' says the
things you want to hear
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
I got the magic power of
the music in me
She climbs into bed, pull the covers overhead and turns her
little radio on
She's has a rotten day so she hopes the DJ's gonna play her
favorite song
It makes her feel much better, brings her closer to her dreams
A little magic power makes it better that it seems
She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She
gets the magic power of the music in me
If you're thinkin' it over but you just can't sort it out
Do you want someone to tell you what they think it's all about
Are you the
one and only who's sad and lonely, reachin' for the top
Well the music keeps
you goin' and it's never gonna stop
The world is full of compromise, the infinite red tape
But
the music's got the magic, it's your one chance for escape
So turn me on -
turn me up - it's your turn to dream
A little magic power makes it better
than it seems
All The Way
Where there's a will, there's a way
Every dog will have his
day
Those who wait are only wastin' time
Pray for wisdom - dig for gold
Can't buy freedom by selling
your soul
You gotta be willin' to give them a piece of your mind
Let a clearer conscience lead you
Don't let anyone deceive
you
When your heart cries out you must obey
Take it all the way, we can make it
All the way, we can
take it
All the way, come tomorrow, come what may
Right or wrong? You can't decide
But the loser pays and the
strong survive
So take your shot, give it all you can
You better watch out, you better look around
'cause what
goes up is gonna come down
Everybody lives by the law of supply and demand
Once you've set a course don't change it
Luck will come to
those who chase it
Don't let anything get in your way
Power and glory and fortune and fame
There must be a price
you must pay
Where do you go when you know that you've gone all the way
All the way
A World Of Fantasy
I was out on my own in a great big world
Thought I'd seen
it all
Then along comes a woman - a fantasy
And I took the fall
I was chasing a dream, I was fancy free
I was so naive
You were all wrapped up in a mystery
You looked good to me
And I needed love I wanted it desperately
But oh, real
love, you never came to me
I was lost in your world of fantasy
I was caught in your
game of make-believe
I was lost in your world of fantasy
Lost in your world of fantasy
Look what you've done to me
You were drawin' me in to a spider's web
With your hungry
eyes
I was under your power I was in your spell
I was hypnotized
And oh sweet love: you wore such a strange disguise
So neat
love: the way I fell for your lies
All the times you lied
And all the times I cried
I'm
never gonna be the same again
Lost in your world of fantasy
Look what you've done to me
Allied Forces
I've got something on my mind
I want you to know
Rock
troops are on the move
It's startin' to show
Paratroopers everywhere
Can't you see
Strategic weapons
Are something we don't need
Allied Forces in every nation
Allied Forces gonna take
control
Allied Forces of my generations
Allied Forces of rock 'n' roll
Youth culture in overdrive
Mass frustration
Too much,
too little, too late
Class alienation
Denim armies working
Consolidate
the might
War games, maneuvers
Rehearsals in the night
I've got something on my mind
I want you to know
Rock
troops are on the move
It's startin' to show
Paratroopers everywhere
Are ready to fight
We're mobile allies
Marchin' every night
