1. _ Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight
Little girl, it's a great big world
But there's only one of me
You can't touch 'cause I cost too much, but
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight!
You're sweet, but you're just four feet
And you still got your baby teeth
You're too young, and I'm too well hung
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight!
You're hot, you take all we got
Not a dry seat in the house
Next day, we'll be on our way
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight I'm gonna rock you
Tonight!
Little girl, it's a great big world
But there's only one of me

2. _ (Listen to The) Flower People (Reggae Stylee)
Listen, (Shh) to what the flower people say (Ah)
Listen, it's getting louder every day
Listen, (Shh) it's like a bolt out of the blue (Ah)
Listen, it could be calling now for you
Flower people walk on by
Flower people don't you cry
It's not too late (No!)
It's not too late
Listen (Shh) it's like a Mozart symphony
Listen (Shh) it's something just for you and me
Listen (Shh) to what the flower people say (Ah)
Listen, it's getting truer every day
(Ah)

4. _ Hell Hole
The window's dirty
The mattress stinks
This ain't no place to be a man
Ain't got no future
Ain't got no past
And I don't think I ever can.
The floor is filthy
The walls are thin
The wind in howling in my face
The rats are peeling
I'm loosing ground
Can't seem to join the human race.
I'm living in a hell hole
Don't want to stay in this hell hole
Don't want to die in this hell hole
Girl, get me out of this hell hole.
I rode the jet stream
I hit the top
I'm eating steak and lobster tails
The sauna's drafty
The pool's too hot
The kitchen stinks of boiling snails.
The tax man's coming
The butler quit
This ain't no place t be a man
I'm going back to where I started
I'm flashing back into my pan.
[Repeat: x2]
It's better in a hell hole
You know where you stand in a hell hole
Folks lend a hand in a hell hole
Girl, get me back to my hell hole

5. _ Heavy Duty
No light fantastic ever crosses my mind
That meditation stuff can make you go blind
Just crank that volume to the point of pain
Why waste good music on a brain.
[Chorus]
Heavy (heavy) duty (duty)
Heavy duty rock and roll
Heavy (heavy) duty (duty)
Brings out the duty in my soul
I see you dancing there in front of the band
You're playing the solos with no guitar in your hand
I don't pull no punches, I wouldn't waste your time
And just 'cause it pays, that ain't no crime.
[Chorus]
I don't need a woman, I won't take me no wife
I get their rock and roll and that'll be my life
No page in history, baby
That I don't need
I just want to make some eardrums bleed.
[Chorus]

7. _ Gimme Some Money
Stop wasting my time
You know what I want
You know what I need
Or maybe you don't
Do I have to come right flat out and tell you everything?
Gimme some money, gimme some money
I'm nobody's fool
I'm nobody's clown
I'm treating you cool
I'm putting you down
But baby I don't intend to leave empty handed
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Oh yeah! Go Nigel, Go!
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Don't get me wrong (Gimme some money, gimme some money)
Try getting me right (Gimme some money, gimme some money)
Your face is okay
But your purse is too tight (Gimme some money, gimme some money)
I'm looking for pound notes, loose change, bad checks, anything
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money
Gimme some money, gimme some money

8. _ Stonehenge
In ancient times,
Hundreds of years before the dawn of history
Lived a strange race of people, the Druids
No one knows who they were or what they were doing
But their legacy remains
Hewn into the living rock, of Stonehenge
Stonehenge! Where the demons dwell
Where the banshees live and they do live well
Stonehenge! Where a man's a man
And the children dance to the Pipes of Pan
Hey!
Stonehenge! 'Tis a magic place
Where the moon doth rise with a dragon's face
Stonehenge! Where the virgins lie
And the prayers of devils fill the midnight sky
And you my love, won't you take my hand?
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there, I will show you how
Oh!
And oh how they danced
The little children of Stonehenge
Beneath the haunted moon
For fear that daybreak might come too soon
And where are they now?
The little people of Stonehenge
And what would they say to us?
If we were here, tonight

12. _ Back from the Dead
We're back from the dead
Climbing from the coffin
We don't come here often
Or so it is said
We're back from the grave
Recovered from our coma
More body than aroma
It's life that we crave.
Watch our hearts pump as we go back into action (go!)
Giving satisfaction and getting some too
Hear our blood roar as we roll a lucky seven
From hell or from heaven, we're past but we're due
(But we're due but we're due but we're due)
We're back from the dead
Putting up resistance
Clinging to existence
And ready for bed
We're out of the shroud
An end to the becalming
Reversing the embalming
And back with our crowd
Nothing's more fun than flipping off the reaper (no!)
We're back on our beeper heading straight for the top
It's not so hard to avoid a mid-death crisis
No coffee, no spices, but rock 'till you drop
('Til you drop, 'til you drop, til you drop)
We're back and we're glad
Nothing ever stops us
We're our own synopsis
And here to be had
We're back from the dead
And this time we're not stopping
We've brought some corn for popping
And we're banging your head
Better off dead, still better off living (yeah!)
The gift keeps on giving and it's taking no more
No time like the past, no rhyme like the present
The first shall be last, and we're slamming death's door
(-ming death's door, -ming death's door, -ming death's door)

13. _ Cups and Cakes
Cups and cakes, cups and cakes
Oh what good things mother makes!
You've gotta take tea, won't you take it with me?
What a gay time it will be
Cups and cakes, cups and cakes
Please make sure that nothing breaks
The china's so dear and the treacle so clear
And I'm glad that you are here
Milk and sugar, bread and jam
"Yes please, sir" and "Thank you, ma'am"
Here I am
Cups and cakes, cups and cakes
I'm so full my tummy aches
How sad it must end
But I'm glad I'd a friend
Sharing cups and cakes with me
And cakes with me

17. _ Big Bottom
The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'
That's what I said
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
Or, so I've read.
My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo
I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.
Big bottom
Big bottom
Talk about bum cakes
My gal's got 'em.
Big bottom
Drive me out of my mind.
How can I leave this behind?
I saw her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean.
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day
You know what I mean.
My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights
Big game's waiting there inside her tights.
Big bottom
Big bottom
Talk about mud flaps
My gal's got 'em.
Big bottom
Drive me out of my mind.
How can I leave this behind?

18. _ America
We came like babies
From our home across the sea
To see America.
And the people opened up their arms
To welcome us, to America.
We came like children
From a far and distant land
To see America, and the golden
Sun of freedom filtered down to us,
In America.
And the people stood and stared
Loved us more than we had dared, to
In America.
Super highways here and there
Pretty women's everywhere
Billy Kid and Smokey Bear
Buildings reaching to the sky
Afro-sheen and apple pie
PTA and FBI.
The jumbo jet begins to rise
A playful nation waves its bye bye's.
Each religion, race, and creed
Gets exactly what they need
God bless Johnny Appleseed.
