Written by Andrew Farriss, J.D. Fortune

At the devil's party
Nothing's a sin
At the devil's party
We know where you've been
If we're all right
Then tell me who's wrong
Love and war
(where do we belong)
I might believe it's love
(where do we belong)
And you might believe it's war
At the devil's party
There's no light from the sun
At the devil's party (now)
Life's a loaded gun
More or less
Less is more
Go on and be my guest
Where do we belong
I might believe it's love
Where do we belong
You might give a little more
Dreams of yours dreams of mine
Dreams of all
That shines on the other side
On the other side
At the devil's party
Watch them standing in line
At the devil's party
See no friends of mine
Lonely days
The road to excess
When you're on fire
You burn like the rest
(where do we belong)
I might believe it's love
(where do we belong)
And you might believe it's war
Why don't we take a little less
(where do we belong)
Then we could give a little more
Dreams of yours
Dreams of mine
Dreams of all
That's green on the other side

Music by Andrew Farriss/Lyrics by J.D. Fortune, Marty Casey, and Jordis Unga

Falling asleep at the wheel again baby
You're drifting over the line (the line) yeah
You're hands are tied but you're losing
Grip quickly
Fix me can you read the signs?
Thumbing your way to vegas dirty
And dreaming of the other side
Save your tears and laughter
Because it doesn't matter what you find
It ain't pretty
After the show
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you
With no place to go
And if you think you need it
Here's the place to feed it
But it ain't pretty
When everything that you do is wrong
And you feel like you can barely survive yeah
When those around you are
Crumbling downwards
Buried in the sunset alive
Thumbing your way to vegas dirty
And screaming like you're back from hell
Save your dreams and occupations
Cos' it doesn't matter what you sell
It ain't pretty
After the show
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you
With no place to go
If you think you want it
Here's the place to get it
But it ain't pretty
The party is over and the road is long
The party is over and we're moving on
The party is over and the road is long
So if you think you want it
Then just come out and say it
It ain't pretty
Falling asleep at the wheel again baby
You're drifting over the line (the line)
You're hands are tied but you're losing
Grip quickly
Fix me can you read the signs
Thumbing your way to vegas dirty
And dreaming like you're outta control
Save your tears and laughter
Because this is the ride
And this is the show
It ain't pretty
After the show
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you
With no place to go
So if you think you want it
Just come in and get it

. . .


Written by Andrew Farriss, Desmond Child

Here I am
Lost in the light of the moon
That comes through my window
Bathed in blue
The walls of my memory
Divides the thorns from the roses
It's you and the roses
Touch me and I will follow
In your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go
I will find my way
When I see your eyes
Now i'm living
In your afterglow
Here I am
Lost in the ashes of time
But who owns tomorrow
In between
The longing to hold you again
I'm caught in your shadow
I'm losing control
My mind drifts away
We only have today
Touch me and I will follow
In your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go
I will find my way
I will sacrifice
Till that blinding day
When I see your eyes
Now i'm living
In your afterglow
When the veils are gone
As I let you go
As I let you go
Touch me and I will follow
In your afterglow
Heal me from all this sorrow
As I let you go
I will find my way
I will sacrifice
Now i'm living
In your afterglow
Bathed in blue
The walls of my memory
Divides the thorns from the roses

Looking out my window
At some girl as I'm writing this and
I watch her eat a peach
The way she's biting it biting it
And I probably shouldn't stare
But I am fighting it fighting it
And I think that she's aware
And kind of liken it liken it
Hot girls
They can break me break me
Hot girls
You know what your doin' now
Hot girls
Come and break me break me
Hot girls
Take me where you are going
On her motor bike the way
She's riding it riding it
And she says it feels so good
But now she is hiding it hiding it
Wet lips to cigarette and now she's
Striking it lighting it as she
Looks me in the eye
Hell she must know she's inviting it
Hot girls they can break me break me
Hot girls you know what your doin' now
Hot girls come and break me break me
Hot girls take me where you're goin'
I got nothing to prove
Ain't got nothing to loose
If you need someone to use
I can take the abuse
Holding up some paper to her window
She's writing her name
And number and I'm laughing
As I'm dialing it dialing it
I got nothing to prove
Aint got nothing to loose
If you need someone to use
I can take the abuse
Hot girls they can break me break me
Hot girls you know what you're doin' now
Hot girls come and break me break me
Hot girls take me where you're goin'
Hot girls they can break me break me
Hot girls you know what you're doin' now
Hot girls come and break me break me
Hot girls take me where you're goin'
Hot girls
Hot girls

Don't tell me your name
Just use that pretty mouth
To kiss me if you want this
But I want you inside out
Start here at the end
And later when we're waking
Our bodies still weak
We finally meet
Turn my head and say
We could be perfect strangers
Let's spend tonight
We could be perfect strangers
Head up won't you look in my eyes
Don't let this bad world change you
You've got places to go
So much further than I can see
We could be perfect strangers
Thank you for spending one night with me
Let's just keep this simple
In the am it's goodbye
The syrup's so much sweeter
When you let the butterfly
So spread your wings and go
It's better not to know
What I'm gonna miss
I'll remember your kiss
When I turn my head and say
We could be perfect strangers
Let's spend tonight
We can be perfect strangers
Head up won't you look in my eyes
Don't let this bad world change you
You've got places to go
So much further than I can see
We could be perfect strangers
Thank you for spending one night with me
We are passing trains
We are whiplash lovers
We are burning wax
Melting all over each other
We can be perfect strangers
Let's spend tonight
We can be perfect strangers
Head up won't you look in my eyes
We can be perfect strangers
Let's spend tonight
We can be perfect strangers

Sugar I want to know you
Know you inside out
Mystery surrounds you
Got to figure it out
Driving down town to your house
Your lights are never on
You got me hooked I wanna drown
Without your hand I'm going down
And I can't stop, lord help me out I'm so lonely
And I'm bleeding from the inside
I need you, you need to remember
Remember, remember
Who's your man
Met you on the corner
Not so long ago
You asked me where I was going
I said I don't know
Tell me how is it that you came into my life so
Damn fast
Blew my mind left me behind
And now I'm living in your past
And I can't stop, you blow me out I'm so lonely
I've been bleeding from the inside
I need you, and you need to remember
Remember, can't you remember
Who's your man
I need you and you need to remember
I said cause I need you
And you need to remember
Can you do that
Cos I'm so high, remember, can't you remember
Oh baby remember who's your man
Who's your man
Who's your man
Who's your man

The world is a hungry place
And it's never satisfied
Leaving home, on your own,
Your momma she was right
Home was a crowded space,
But it sometimes gratified
Look around, freedom found, now you've gone
You don't belong to me,
I've just got to let you go
You don't belong to me,
I've just got to let you know
Your life is a precious thing,
It can never be denied
You need a job
You couldn't help but try
Home was a crowded place
And it sometimes satisfied
Turn around freedom found
Now you've gone
Baby turn back
Don't ride the highway
Oh baby good luck
When you do it your way
You don't belong to me
I've just got to let you go
You don't belong to me
I've just got to let you know
I don't belong to you
It's only an emotion away
You don't belong to me
I've just got to let you go
When there's nothing in your way
And hunger burns inside
Reaching out on your way
Lust is a hungry place,
And it's never satisfied
You need to find,
The gift of love that comes from deep inside
Your heart is a special place,
And I'm always there,
I'm always there for you
Baby turn back,
Don't ride the highway
Oh baby good luck

Everything's good when it's sunshine
You should see me in the rain
Everyone knows what it feels like
To have to start over again
But I can't start over again
Again, again, again
If some day I find me the answer
Move down south and marry a dancer
I could never let you go
And when he's holding you, you remember
The day I met you one cold december
I could never let you go
I could never let you go
Everything I see around me
Reminds me of why you are numb
This bed is too deep to be empty
I'm swimming in oblivion
I'm drowing in oblivion
And on, and on, and on
If some day I find me the answer
Move down south and marry a dancer
I could never let you go
And when he's holding you, you remember
The day I met you one cold december
I could never let you go
I could never let you go
Everything's good when it's sunshine
You should see me in the rain
Everyone knows what it feels like
To have to start over again
If by chance I find me the answer
Move down south and marry a dancer
I could never let you go
And when he's holding you, you remember
The day I met you one cold december
I could never let you go
And if some day I find me the answer
Move down south and marry a dancer
I could never let you go

Sex is sex and
Love is love
Mix em both up
Baby that's the stuff
I can't believe I'm seeing
The world come tumbling, crumbling down
Yeh less love the worlds receiving
More chance of it all shutting down
Shutting down
Yeh yeh
Ooooh oooh like it or not
Ooohh oooh love is the god
Love is the love is the god
Ooooh oooh yeh like it or not
Ooohh oooh love is the god
Love is the god
So put your guns down
On the ground
Yeh peace it makes
Such a pretty sound
I can't believe I'm seeing
The world come tumbling, crumbling down
You won't believe the feeling
When it's all coming back around
Coming round
Yeh yeh
Ooohh oooh love is the god
Ooooh oooh yeh like it or not
Love is the love is the yeh
Ooohh oooh love is my god
Ooooh oooh like it or not
Love is god

Love is a love is a yeh

Come on, come on, come on

Love is the
Ooooh oooh oh like it or not
Love is the love is the yeh
Ooohh oooh love is the god

The world is always changing
You can see it everyday
But in a tragic situation
You just can't hide yourself away
So try a little kindness
Cause it shouldn't be that hard
You're shining in the darkness
When you open up your heart
Your love is all we need
To bring us together
Don't leave it to me, nothing's for free
It comes down to us
Hungry babies on television
Can you feel the shame
You've gotta keep on giving to one another
Cos it's all gonna happen again
Why don't you try a little kindness
Cause it shouldn't be that hard
Just think about what binds us
And find a new place to start
Your love is all, we need
To bring us together
Don't you leave it to me
Nothing's for free
It comes down to us
Your love is all we need
To bring us together
We're not indestructible
Some kind of miracle
Happens every day
Your love is all we need
To bring us together
Don't leave it to me
Nothings for free
Your love is all we need
To bring us together
We're not indestructible
Some kind of miracle
Happens every day
Oh it comes down to us
It comes down to us
We all have to stop, stop,
Stop pretending now

Romance is gone
He's drifting with the stars
A lyric in his pocket
Little girl in his heart
When she hears his songs
On the radio
I don't need to tell you
What you already know
He's on god's top ten
Where heaven never ends
You saw the world
And the world saw you on the stage
Wild wild wild colonial boy
Roquefort le pont
Your gypsy heart is free
Pictures on the wall
Of your family
He's on god's top ten
Where heaven never ends
He's on god's top ten
Baby's got momma's eyes
She was always beautiful
When you hear his voice
Feel his arms around you
You remember momma smiling
A daddys little girl
Bad weather cold media storm
He's on god's top ten
Were heaven never ends
