Shouting And Pointing

(overend watts/morgan fisher)

There's trouble coming
I feel it deep in my bones
I can't avoid it, no way,
Gotta face it, not gonna be long
It's got me shouting, pointing,
Panting, begging tonight
I need some people
To see me through it
Loving me right

Gonna pull some tarts together
Better dress them up in leather
Gonna find some kindred spirits
Gonna throw the searchlight in it
Want some volunteers!

You do and you do and you do
Get in to trouble
And maybe you do and you do and you do
Get in to luck
'cos i've been shouting, pointing, panting
And when it's done
We're gonna walk out smiling, laughing
Because we won!

Gonna pull... (etc)

Watch out, they'll get ya
They're hiding under your nose
They'll try to dare you, scare you, snare you
Stand on your toes
'cos they'll be shouting, pointing, panting
And when it's done
We're gonna settle down a-loving, and a-howling
Because we won

Gonna pull... (etc)

Hey there annie, that means you
Why don't you leave that man
'cos he never was true
You've got the figure and the face
To go any place
So drop those dishes
And get back in the race

I know you can do it
You know you can too

Look what i got ... (?)
She's a chick that's gonna give
You stone in the ... (?)
Got a straight for a seven and she's ready to sigh
When you see her you'll be itching
'cos she's looking so fine

I know she can do it
You know she can too

Don't let them tell you
That all girls are the same
That's only part of the game
Don't let them tell you
That you'll never find fame
We know best

Hey there annie our dream's come true
Got a million dollar contract
And a cadillac too
And we're laying in the shade
Of a willow tree
Sipping on a glass of vintage '53

I knew we could do it
You knew we could too

Don't let them tell you
That all girls are the same
That's only part of the game
Don't let them tell you
That you'll never find fame
We know better

Don't let them tell you
That all girls are the same
That's only part of the game
Don't let them tell you
That you'll never find fame
We know best

Is everybody gonna rock?
Is everybody gonna roll?
Are you gonna have a good time?
Let it roll

Mary, mary, you're on my mind
The folks are gone and the place'll be mine
Mary, mary, wanna be with you
Now, this is what i'm gonna do
I'm gonna put a gun to you

Gonna have a good time tonight
Rock 'n' roll music gonna play all night
Come over baby it won't take long
It only takes a minute just to sing my song

Phoney maroni gonna be with jim
Long tall sally gonna stay with slim
Short fat fanny gonna be there too
I tell you what i'm gonna do
I'm gonna put a gun to you

Gonna have a good time tonight
Rock 'n' roll music gonna play all night
Come over baby it won't take long
It only takes a minute just to sing my song

Phoney maroni gonna be with jim
Long tall sally gonna stay with slim
Short fat fanny gonna be there too
Now this is what i'm gonna do
I'm gonna put a gun to you

There's no such thing as me or you
Just the feeling someone had
When they saw shadows on the wall
There's no such thing as old or new
'cause everything's been said and done before

There's no such thing as rock and roll
No such thing as growing old

When the picture starts to fade
You'll hear the clowns and watch them cry
The great mistakes they've made
When the lights have all gone down (down, down, down)
You'll marvel at the speed that things turn round

There's no such thing as rock and roll
No such thing as growing old
Things are way beyond control
I've been told

Try to cut you down
Take your soul away
Cut you down
Try to break your heart
Take your soul away
Break your heart

If you make it to the end
You'll find you didn't try that hard
It wasn't such a strain
And all those death defying deeds
Weren't necessary
It's really such a shame

'cause all i've got is rock and roll
All i'll get is growing old
Things are way beyond control
And i've been told

Try to cut you down (cut you down)
Take your soul away
Cut you down
Try to break your heart (break your heart)
Take your soul away
Break your heart

Try to cut you down (cut you down)
Take your soul away
Cut you down

Last night i woke up on a subway train
Travelling round and round all night
My head was hurting and my clothes were torn
It must have been a hell of a fight

And you know it doesn't feel so funny
When you're waking up at half past eight
And they've taken all your stuff and your money
And you wonder was it something you said

Yes i know i ain't exactly
A clean livin' boy
Sometimes it just ain't fair
When i get home to you
After all i've been through
You'll only scream and shout
'cos your money's run out

I don't care
If you go to work
I don't care
If you stay at home
But if you go downtown
That you're pulling around
Why don't you leave me alone

You said to me that i'm wasting my life
I've played it just like your fool
You're no give and no talk
I guess it won't get too far
It ain't done me no harm
It don't follow me at all

You said to me that i've been wasting your time
Your gonna find another man
I've had all i can take
Won't you give us a break
I'm sick and tired of people trying to tell me what i am

I don't care
If i go to heaven
I don't care
If i stay in hell
'cos i know that i'm doing
What i really wanna do
And you know that i'm doing it well

Yes i know i didn't love my mamma
I got everything wrong at school
All the touble i had from my dear old dad
Tonight you sit tight i'm gonna give it to you

I don't care
If you go to work
I don't care
If you stay at home
But if you go downtown
That you're pulling around
Why don't you leave me alone

I don't care
I got too short arms
I don't care
I don't care
I got too long hands
I don't care
I don't care
I got too bald head
I don't care
