1. _ Modern Girl
Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right
Had a little baby girl, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain, there's a skip in the clock
Girl that's where i'm gonna find you
Between the boy i was before and what i'm gonna be
There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky
Girl that's where you're gonna find me
Can't you hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine
Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens
But you and i stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
(gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl)
Bridge:
We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway
(gimme the future, gimme the future)
Laughin' while the road maps blow away
(gimme the future with a modern girl)
We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid
(gimme the future, gimme the future)
Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made
(gimme the future with a modern girl)
(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a modern girl
(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a modern girl
Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right
Had a little baby boy, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future - gimme the future with a modern girl...

2. _ Surf's Up
The waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I want to take your hand and make it feel so right
I know i'm ready and i'll never be like this again
And the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
I know you're ready and we're runnin' on the back of the wind
Chorus:
And my body is burnin' like a naked wire
I wanna turn on the juice, i wanna fall in the fire
I'm gonna drown in the ocean in a bottomless sea
I'm gonna give you what i'm hopin' you'll be givin' to me
And when the waves are poundin' on the sand tonight
I wanna take your hand and make it good and make it right
Now the sky is trembling and the moon is pale
We're on the edge of forever and we're never gonna fail
How hard, how hard, how hard do i gotta try (i want all of your love)
Surf's up (i need it so bad), surf's up (i need it so bad)
Surf's up and so am i (i gotta give you some love)
Surf's up and so am i
(chorus)
Surf's up and so am i, surf's up and so am i

3. _ Don't Leave Your Mark On Me
Under your protective wing i walked into the night
And a thousand angry demons up and took flight
And i went running through the fields with the fever in my veins
And the rain came crashing down and tried to clear my name
Above my head, all in red, i could see you bearing down on me
You said you're not running out, no you're leaving now
I will find you, there is no way out
I'll keep tracking you down in the still of this night
Forever, mine forever
Chorus:
Don't leave your mark on me, i have to reply
I'm not staying, no, and i'm not just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me, i have to reply, i'm not staying, no
I'm not staying, no
Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of the night
A shadow in the doorway beckons me inside
And something led the way though i could not see its face
And a voice from deep inside me screamed to get out of this place
Above my head, all was said as the jailor turned the key on me
He said you're not running out, no you're not leaving now
There ain't no way, there is no no way
(chorus)
This nightmare never ends, memories of absent friends
Masked illusions stare at me, point the finger silently
Stand accused as the jury scares, there's a ghost in here somewhere
There's a ghost in here somewhere
(chorus)
I'm not staying, no
Oh this nightmare really never ends, this is memories of absent friends
(don't leave your mark on me)
Oh this nightmare really never ends, there's a ghost in here somewhere
(don't leave your mark on me)

4. _ Sailor To A Siren
Long distance callin' in the middle of a rainy night
So much static, hardly knew your voice
An' you've been cryin', want me to love you like i did before
Girl when it comes to you, you know i've got no choice
You put a storm inside me, i wanna head for a safer harbor
They all tell me i should give you up, but no man coulda tried any harder
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time i hear you callin' me, just wanna feel you in my arms again
Chorus:
Like a sailor to a siren, like a moth to a flame
I know your love might be the death for me, but i run to you just the same
Like a sailor to a siren, nothing's gonna keep us apart
Crashin' over the wreckage of all the sailor's broken hearts
Musta met you when we were livin' in another time
Had nothin' but the jealous gods to point our way
When men were sailors and a woman was a rocky shore
Wailin' like a siren leadin' him astray
I got another woman and i know you got another man
They all tell me i should give you up, but i don't think that any mortal can
Feels like an odyssey that's never gonna reach an end
Every time i hear you callin' to me, just wanna feel you in my arms again
Ichorus)
Gonna abandon ship, steal you from the cliff
Take you to a place where the gods can't find us no more
Let the sailors listen to the sirens if they dare
Gonna be dancin' on the water, drownin' in your yellow hair
(chorus repeats out)

5. _ Nowhere Fast
It's getting cold, it's getting dark, the nights are longer every day
The air is heavy and the clouds will never burn away
And we've been waitin' here so long that we've forgotten what it's like
To turn into the fire, lookin' straight into the, straight into the light
Bridge:
Your heart is tryin' to rock but it can barely beat at all
Your soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over the line
I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
We're tearin' down the highway and we're breakin' away, breakin' away
Breakin' away, we're breakin' away from the pack
We're breakin' away from the pack
And if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And even if you don't have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll
And your speed is all you'll ever need, all you'll ever need to know
Chorus:
You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly and we gotta get away from the past
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
It's so much better goin' nowhere fast
You shouldn't always see your world so clearly
You shouldn't always know your place so well
And all we're doin' here is hangin' around
And goin' anywhere has gotta be heaven, 'cos stayin here is gonna be hell
And goin' anywhere has gotta be heaven, 'cos stayin here has gotta be hell
I'm getting lost, i'm getting found, i'm getting born again each day
We're dyin' on the vine until we finally, 'til we finally get away
The boundaries of this town are closin' in just like a noose
The future's gonna rust if we don't put it to some, put it to some use
(bridge)

6. _ Bad Attitude
They say you never come home, boy you been drivin' too fast
When you gonna shape up, how long is this gonna last
You may be laughin' today, but listen to some good advice
An' take a look at tomorrow in a workin' man's weary eyes
You gotta pick a carreer, go for the gold
Smile for the camera, do what you're told
Well you can take away the ladder 'cos i ain't gonna climb it
If there's a stairway to heaven i swear i'm gonna find it
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
Behind every man in the news
And one thing i know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose
Behind every man who has somethin' to say
There's a boy who had nothin' to prove
An' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
She says you never call, how come you're actin' so tough
You either hold me too tight, or you don't hold me enough
Don't be afraid of me angel, i ain't about to clip your wings
Just put your feet on the ground and your arms around the real thing
You gotta love me for keeps, feather the nest
Plan for the future, an' gimme your best
Boy we're never gonna have a normal family life
Steamin' up and down the speedway on the back a' your bike
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
Behind every man in the news
And one thing i know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose
Behind every man who has somethin' to say
There's a boy who had nothin' to prove
An' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Bad attitude, you got us tearin' our hair
Such a bad attitude, boy you just don't seem to care
We try to lay down the rules, but you were born to refuse
What's the world gonna do with a boy like you
You got it bad, you got a bad attitude
You try to lay down the rules, well i was born to refuse
What's the world gonna do with a man like you
You got a bad - no, you got a bad, you got a bad - ooh, you got a bad
You got a bad - no, you got a bad, you got a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy
Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers
Behind every man in the news
And one thing i know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose
Behind every man who has somethin' to say
There's a boy who had nothin' to prove
An' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude
Oh, you got a bad, ooh, you got a bad, oh, you got a bad attitude
No, you got a bad, you got a bad, you got a bad attitude

7. _ Jumpin' The Gun
Heaven blesses those who wait, patience is a virtue, son
Keep your toe on the line, keep your foot on the brake
No sense jumpin' the gun
But girl i'm tired of waitin', you know life's too short
Lemme kiss ya 'til the night is done
Ain't no doubt about it, you're my favourite sport, god i wanna jump the gun
Chorus:
Feel like jumpin' the gun, tonight i'm gonna jump the gun
No crime in havin' some fun, how about jumpin' the gun
(chorus)
Now they say it doesn't matter if ya win or lose
Only matters how ya play the game
Well, but let me tell ya baby, if i had to choose
Gotta win ya now or go insane
(chorus)
Willya hold me like a trophy, willya burn up the track
Willya love me when the title's won
Blow away the competition baby, never look back, honey willya jump the gun
Girl:<
Gonna hold ya like a trophy, gonna burn up the track
Gonna love ya when the title's won
They'll be eatin' up the dust baby, never look back
Tonight i'm gonna jump
Better get ready, better get set girl - this time we're jumpin' the gun
Ya think we're goin' too fast, ain't seen nothin' yet girl
This time we're jumpin' the gun
Ready take your mark, ooh i just can't wait - this time we're jumpin' the gun
Ya gotta break a couple rules if ya wanna break the tape
This time we're jumpin' the gun
(chorus repeats out)

8. _ Piece Of The Action
Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams
Someone's cleanin' up the offices, one window burnin' in the dark
Somebody's cryin' is there any way in hell
To light a comet from a single spark
Workin' so hard i can't remember much about the freedom i been workin' for
Felt like a prisoner 'til i looked in your eyes
And saw a million wide open doors
Ya tell me put a little money away, well every dog will have his day in time
Well i been slavin' like a dog and i got nothin' to show ya
But a collar and a fist fulla nickels and dimes
Chorus:
I want a piece, a piece of the action, give me a shot at the real thing
I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings
Been livin' just like my old man did and neither once of us could get it right
Punchin' in when the day begins and punchin' out the local boys at night
There's someone leanin' on a peelin' porch
And someone leavin' on a silver plane
And i finally know the man i'd rather be
Girl i won't be back to getcha 'til they know my name
(chorus)
They hand you a paycheck every week and steal a piece of your soul every day
An' i don't need no gold watch in fifty years, baby let's be golden today
(chorus repeats 2x...)
(chorus)
Somewhere a red-eyes waitress glances at another movie magazine
Down on the corner there's a grocery boy stuffin' boxes fulla hungry dreams

9. _ Cheatin' In Your Dreams
You see me now as large as life, but underneath you knew all too well
The hollow shell, no spark of life
Where once upon a time there beat a heart
For you and you knew it from the start, and you went and blew it all away
And you knew how, oh you knew best
The strings to pull and buttons to press
To wind me up and make me shake, you controlling every move i made
I couldn't see through it, all the pain, and you put me through it
Over and over again, just tell me over and over and over
Chorus:
How could you say there was no other, why is it nothing's what it seems
You told me i'm your greatest lover, do you even know what that word means
Your lovin' is coolin', baby who ya think you're foolin'
'cos when i woke up i caught you cheatin' in your dreams
When i woke up i caught you cheatin' in your dreams
Stop it! stop it! don't you say a word
I feel my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hands
She lay so still and lifeless, i cried baby, baby, baby
(chorus)
(cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
(cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
It was my dumb luck, i just came unstuck
My whole world shook, i'd had about enough
When i woke up, i caught you cheatin' in your dreams
(cheatin', cheatin', cheatin' in your dreams)
(repeats out)
