Death is just a moment away
In the city of angels
Your future won't see the light of the day

Beware of the alien nation
Beware of the truth that they seek
They pray for eternal salvation
They pray for your soul to keep

On the eve of destruction
A reign of terror rules the street
When the heads start rolling
The devil comes to let it bleed

In the city of angels
Death is just a moment away
In the city of angels
Your future won't see the light of the day

Walk on past the alien nation
Walk on to the end of your reach
No fear of the alien nation
No fear of the hatred they preach

Don't run, there's no place to hide
Today or tomorrow it will get you
Don't move, the knife is right at your throat
And whatever you do there's no way out

When the shroud comes down
On this place o bury us all alive
We'll know the time has come to face the heat

Beware of the alien nation
Beware of the truth that they seek
They pray for eternal salvation
They pray for your soul to keep

Walk on past the alien nation
Walk on to the end of your reach
They pray for eternal damnation
They pray for your soul to keep



No pain no gain

(Schenker/Meine/Hudson)

Face in the gutter, eyes on the floor
Knocked down twice, can't take it no more
You got no vision in your head
You got no vision, better dead

Get on your feet, open the door
Walk on down, you know the score
It's a dead end street, back to the wall
You get it together, you can get it all

The weak will fall, the strong remain

No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain

No time for losers, you make the call
Believe in yourself, stand tall
Another day it's in your hand
You can be the winner in the end

The weak will fall, the strong remain

No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain

Keep running, don't look back
Keep moving, paint it black
Keep going, don't ever stop
There's time to rest the day you'll drop

You roll the dice, you play the game
The weak will fall, the strong remain

No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain
No pain, no gain



Someone to touch

(Schenker/Meine/Hudson)

I'm an alleycat with only seven lives
I'm the trouble scratching at your door
When the moon is bright and shining high
I'm getting loose just like the night before

One for the money, two for the show
You can't resist it on a night like this
I'm the answer, baby and you know
Tonight you're mine, forget the guy you're with

Baby, I don't care
If I have to crawl an extra mile
'Cause you can take me everywhere
And you're the one I really need tonight

Someone to touch
I need a girl like you
Someone to touch
That somebody could be you

Don't try to tell me that your daddy's mean
You think your mama wouldn't let me in
Come on and step inside my dream machine
Don't fight it, honey, you just can't win

'Cause baby, I don't care
If I have to crawl an extra mile
'Cause you can take me everywhere
And you're the one I really need tonight

Someone to touch
I need a girl like you
Someone to touch
That somebody could be you

Someone to touch
I need a girl like you
Someone to touch
C'mon baby, I think it's you



Under the same sun

(Hudson/Meine/Fairbairn)

I saw the morning, it was shattered by a gun
Heard a scream, saw him fall, no one cried
I saw a mother, she was praying for her son
Bring him back, let him live, don't let him die

Do you ever ask yourself
Is there a heaven in the sky?
Why can't we get it right?

'Cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one?

I saw the evening , fading shadows one by one
We watch the lamb lay down to the sacrifice
I saw the children, the children of the sun
How they wept, how they bled, how they died

Do you ever ask yourself
Is there a heaven in the sky?
Why can't we stop the fight?

'Cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one?

Sometimes I think I'm going mad
We're loosing all we had and no one seems to care
But in my heart it doesn't change
We've got to rearrange and bring our world some love

And does it really matter
If there's a heaven up above?
We sure could use some love

'Cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why can't we live as one?

'Cause we all live under the same sky
We all look up at the same stars
Then why, tell me why can't we live as one?



Unholy alliance

(Schenker/Meine)

It came up crawling from the ruins of the past
And I just can't believe my eyes
It wears the same old face we thought was dead and gone
Forever buried by the time

Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance

It came up screaming from the ashes of the grave
To make this world a battle field
It's got a voice that steals the courage from the brave
And leaves a scar that will not heal

Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance

Don't wanna hear the same old lie that spreads the fear
Only fools think it's cool
We must be blind not to see the signs
How can we dare to look away in the wake of yesterday?

Troubled times - don't turn your back to the lions
Troubled times - just learn your lesson well
The party is over

We must be blind not to see the signs
How can we dare to look away in the wake of yesterday?

Troubled times - don't turn your back to the lions
Troubled times - just learn your lesson well
The party is over

Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance
Unholy alliance



Woman

(Schenker/Meine)

Woman - you can change my world
Woman - you can change my world

I'm chained to the fears inside these walls
The silence talks loud 'bout the things I recall
Through the bricks in the window I scream at the world
But when no one is listening it's hard to be heard

Woman - you can change my world
Woman - there'll be no return

I see shadows coming through the walls
I hear voices but no one's talking at all
I can feel the madness crawling up my spine
Reachin' out to grab your mind

Woman - come and change my world

Do you remember all those fears?
They won't leave me alone
Do you remember all those tears?
I pretend to be strong

Do you remember all the pain?
I'm getting tired of the game
I cannot live, I cannot die
I wanna know who the hell am I

You've never seen me but I know you so well
And before it kills me I gotta break the spell
The deeper we touch the higher we'll go
The time has come to heal my soul

Woman - you can change my world

Do you remember all those fears?
They won't leave me alone
Do you remember all those tears?
I pretend to be strong

Do you remember all the pain?
I'm getting tired of the game
I cannot live, I cannot die
I wanna know who the hell am I

Woman - I'm gonna change your world



Hate to be nice

(Schenker/Meine)

Hey baby, listen up
I'm not in love with you

You keep runnin' off at the mouth
And someone else can scratch my back
And I could care less about your legs
I just wanna see'em walk all over me

I'm runnin' out of patience
And I ain't gonna say it twice
The world out there is down 'n' dirty, honey
And I just hate to be nice

So don't think about movin' any closer, baby
Just forget about it

You body may be a weapon on legs
But hey, I'm not fallin' for that
Don't you get it? I'm not impressed at all
I just wanna see you crawl all over me

I'm runnin' out of patience
And I ain't gonna say it twice
The world out there is down 'n' dirty, honey
And I just hate to be nice

Don't you understand?
Don't you understand?

Tell me, when your eyes say yes
How can your lips say no?
A girl like you shouldn't be surprised
It's just I hate to be nice

I'm runnin' out of patience
And I ain't gonna say it twice
The world out there is down 'n' dirty, honey
And I just hate to be nice



Taxman woman

(Schenker/Meine)

I wake up in the morning, I'm thinking of you
In dollars and cents, in high heel shoes
I start to think and the headache goes boom
I'm counting the bills that are stacked to the moon

The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever on the sunny side
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better? God knows that I tried

Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see? It's only money
Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see? It's so hard, honey, to keep up with you

I work twice as hard, what else can I do?
To make up the part that's been taken by you
If it wasn't for you I would be rich
But instead I'm a poor son of a bitch

The money I'm giving to you
I could live on forever on the sunny side
What can I do so my life
Turns around for the better? God knows that I tried

Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see? It's only money
Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see? It's so hard, honey

Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see that it ain't funny?
Taxman woman - I keep running
Can't you see? It's so hard, honey, to keep up with you



Ship of fools

(Schenker/Meine)

Another bloody Monday, thirty nine just died
All hell breaks loose in the crowd
A hopeless helter skelter, another mindless crime
Some corner of the world is burning down

Heading for a nervous breakdown
Can't take it anymore
I see the fear explode just like
A thousant nights before

The ship of fools keeps on rollin' through a deadly storm
It won't take long 'till we collide
The ship of fools keeps on following the siren's call
Damned to be sacrificed

Corrupt politicians, promise paradise
The thieves are reaching out for the crown
Violence is a killer, threatens all our lives
Judgment day has come here and now

Heading for a nervous breakdown
Can't take it anymore
I see the fear explode just like
A thousant nights before

The ship of fools keeps on rollin' through a deadly storm
It won't take long 'till we collide
The ship of fools keeps on following the siren's call
Damned to be sacrificed

Heading for a nervous breakdown
Can't take it anymore
I see the fear explode just like
A thousant nights before

The ship of fools keeps on rollin' through a deadly storm
It won't take long 'till we collide
The ship of fools keeps on following the siren's call
Damned to be sacrificed

The ship of fools keeps on rollin' through a deadly storm
It won't take long 'till we collide
The ship of fools keeps on following the siren's call
Damned to be sacrificed



Nightmare avenue

(Jabs/Meine/Hudson)

Last night I went to kill some time at the famous grill
Where the tall eats the small
There were girls all over me, that's my insanity
Don't call me Ringo, call me Paul

I'm in heaven, I'm in hell
Don't wipe that smile off my face, can't you tell?
I see faces in the weirdest places
Please, won't you take me down underneath you spell?

I'm back at midnight, alright
I drop my keys, could you get'em, love?
Baby, I might, he might
I got the stuff to keep it goin' on all night

Take me down - nightmare avenue
Goin' down - nightmare avenue

I wanna take you too

Sharp as a sabres tooth, back in my favorite booth
I'm getting spanked with cold champagne
I'd walk on a razor blade if you're dressed like a french maid
I get my pleasure out of pain

I'm in heaven, I'm in hell
Don't wipe that smile off my face, can't you tell?
I see faces in the weirdest places
Please, won't you take me down underneath you spell?

I'm back at midnight, alright
I drop my keys, could you get'em, love?
Baby, I might, he might
I got the stuff to keep it goin' on all night

Take me down - nightmare avenue
Goin' down - nightmare avenue
Drive me down - nightmare avenue
Lay me down on nightmare avenue

Take me down - nightmare avenue
Goin' down - nightmare avenue
Drive me down - nightmare avenue
Lay me down on nightmare avenue

And I've gonna take you too



Lonely nights

(Schenker/Meine)

Since you're gone
There is an empty space
Since you're gone
The world is not the same

I go back to the places we've been
It feels like you're still there
I live all those moments again
Wishing you were here

Since you're gone
There is an lonely heart
Since you're gone
Nothin' is like it was

There are memories all over the place
Bringin' it back all so clear
Remember all of those days
Wishing you were here

All those lonely nights
Lonely nights
Lonely nights
Lonely nights

I gotta fight for you
Yes, I do, yes, I do

Since you're gone
There is a heart that bleeds
Since you're gone
I'm not the man I used to be

I follow you steps in the snow
The traces disappear
We know what we've lost when it's gone
I'm wishing you were here

All those lonely nights
Lonely nights
Lonely nights
Lonely nights

I gotta fight for you
Yes, I do



Destin

(Schenker/Meine)

Do you say a prayer when your feeling down?
Do you believe that love can turn your faith around?
You're feeling high and low but you don't know what to think
The world is full of saints who live their lives in sin

Don't ask the mirror ball, you better ask yourself
I think you know the answers but maybe you can't tell
You'll see it all so clear, just take a look inside
The judge you build inside your heart will always be your guide

Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi

Another day goes by and so does your life
You try to make some sense before your time to die
If you feel humility for something that is true
You'll find the secrets of this life deep inside of you

Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
The innocent won't feel the judgement day

Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
The innocent won't feel the judgement day

Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
Mon destin inscrit en toi
The innocent won't feel the judgement dayr



Daddy's girl

(Schenker/Meine)

Sweet little child
You know nothing but a cold world outside
You're too young to realize
What he wants from you tonight

Poor little girl
There is no one you can trust in the world
In the darkness of the night
What he's doing is a crime

Your mother denies there's a problem
She's looking away
She don't wanna hear you cry
She will pray, then it's over for a while

Sweet little child

You're too young to realize
What he wants from you tonight

An ocean of silence is drowning your heart
What never should be will remain in the dark
