Glitter for Your Soul

So you think you'll take another piece of me
To satisfy your intellectual need
Do you want, do you want
Action, action, action, action
Gonna bring you down
'Cause you've been pushing me
You've got to recognize my superiority

Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action

Oh, I was suicidal 'cause you was my idol
Baby, baby, baby, bring it to your knees
Oh, there was a time I would have walked the line
But you bled me dry with your insatiable greed

Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action

Do you want, do you want action?
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants, everybody needs

Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action

We've been here too long
Tryin' to get along
Pretendin' that you are so shy
You''re a natural man
Doin' all you can
Your temperature is runnin' high

Howl at night
No one in sight
An' we got so much to share
Talking's fine
If you got the time
But I ain't got the time to spare
Yeah

Do you want to touch (Yeah)

Do you want to touch me there, where

Every girl an' boy
Needs a little joy
All you do is sit an' stare
Beggin' on my knees
Baby, won't you please
Run your fingers through my hair

My, my, my
Whiskey and rye
Don't it make you feel so fine
Right or wrong
Don't it turn you on
Can't you see we're wastin' time, yeah

Do you want to touch (Yeah)

I'm your top prime cut of meat, I'm your choice,
I want to be elected,
I'm your Yankee doodle dandy in a gold Rolls Royce,
I want to be elected,
Kids want a savior, don't need a fake,
I want to be elected,
We're all gonna rock to the rules that I make,
I want to be elected, elected, elected.

I never lied to you, I've always been cool,
I want to be elected,
I gotta get the vote, and I told you 'bout school,
I want to be elected, elected, elected,
Hallelujah, I want to be selected,
Everyone in the United States of America.

We're gonna win this one, take the country by storm,
We're gonna be elected,
You and me together, young and strong,
We're gonna be elected, elected, elected,
Respected, selected, call collected,
I want to be elected, elected.

"And if I am elected
I promise the formation of a new party
A third party, the Wild Party!
I know we have problems,
We got problems right here in Central City,
We have problems on the North, South, East and West,
New York City, Saint Louis, Philadelphia, Los Angeles,
Detroit, Chicago,
Everybody has problems,
And personally, I don't care."

Forgot my six-string razor - hit the sky
Half way to Memphis 'fore I realized
Well I rang the information - my axe was cold
They said she rides the train to Oreoles

Now its a mighty long way down the dusty trail
And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
And I look like a bum 'n I crawl like a snail
All the way from Memphis

Well I got to Oreoles ya know - it took a month
And there was my guitar, electric junk.
Some spade said "Rock n' rollers, you're all the same.
Man that's your instrument." I felt so ashamed.

Now its a mighty long way down rock n' roll
Through the Bradford Cities and the Oreoles
And you look like a star but you're still on the dole
All the way from Memphis

Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock n' roll
From the Liverpool docks to the Hollywood Bowl
And you climb up the mountains and you fall down the holes
All the way from Memphis

Yeah its a mighty long way down rock n' roll
As your name gets hot so your heart grows cold
And you gotta stay young man, you can never be old
All the way from Memphis

Yeah its a mighty long way down rock n' roll
Through the Bradford Cities and the Oreoles
And you look like a star but you're really out on parole!
All the way from Memphis

I could have loved you girl
Like a planet
I could have chained your heart
To a star

But it really doesn't matter at all
But it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas. I hope it's gonna last.

I could have built a house
On the ocean
I could placed your love
In the sky

I could have turned you
into a priestess
I could have burned
Your fate in the sand.
