RISING
POWER TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
Dog day, it's Tuesday
Hope that girl she'll come today
Hard life, it's a city life
Sweat keep pourin' down
I got my feet up, like to love
Through the dawn till I've blown
All I want's her lovin' now
I love the way she move around
Need no excuse
To let it all hang loose
My body's for abuse
CHORUS:
Rising power, we'll raise the night
Rising power
Rising power, we'll wake the dead
Rising power
(You got it)
Love life, up all night
Darkest hour at the dead of night
Seen her walkin' down the street
The kind of woman that brings on heat
Love her dusk till dawn
Come the morning, she was gone
Took me all to my surprise
Money gone, left high and dry
Need no excuse
To let it all hang loose
My body's for abuse
CHORUS
(Gonna end up torn to shreds)
Don't need no excuse
My body's for abuse
CHORUS
Rise, rise
I'm gonna rise
Rising power
The power rise from you

(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
Yonder she walked
Yonder she walked, hittin one of dream
A little tongue in cheek, hot poisonality
She bring on the flames, and it's burning and

My body's aching, tossing and turning
House is on fire
House is on fire
This house is on fire
And the flame is gonna burn you, you
She got me running for shelter
Needin' quarantine
She got me red hot and wired
Call an emergency
She bring on the flames, and it's burning and

My body's aching, tossing and turning
House is on fire
House is on fire
This house is on fire
And the flame is gonna burn you, you
You got me burning and burning

Burn, burn, burn

FLICK
OF THE SWITCH TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
Well there's a love gone down on mine
Suicidal voltage line
She sends signals outta distress
She devil, she evil
She got you reelin' on a rockin' machine
CHORUS:
With a flick of the switch
With a flick of the switch she'll blow you sky
high
With a flick of the switch
With a flick of the switch she can satisfy
She gonna blow you all sky high
Flash the eye, electrify
A power force you should feel
She devil, she evil
She got you screaming on a lightnin' machine
CHORUS
(Give you pain, blow your brain)
Flick the switch, flick the switch
With a flick of the switch, she'll blow you sky
high
With a flick of the switch, she can satisfy
With a flick of the switch, razed to the ground
With a flick of the switch
With a flick of the switch
With a flick of the switch, she gonna give you
pain
With a flick of the switch, she gonna blow your
brain, blow your brain
She gonna put the light out on - you
NERVOUS
SHAKEDOWN TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
"Freeze", said the man cruisin' the beat
"You get your hands up and spread your feet"
"Don't you move an inch", I heard him
say
"Or you'll be doin' time until the judgement
day"
And he said, "Don't tell me no lies, give me
alibis
'Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin'
life"
It's a dirty lie
CHORUS:
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
(It's more like a set-up)
"Take a dime", said the man, "you
can make one call
You got a one-way ticket to the County Hall"
Well, the judge looked high and I looked low
And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show
He said, "Two to five, the jury decides
Double parole if you survive"
It's a dirty lie
CHORUS
Law is gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
CHORUS
Shake you down, shake you down
And it's another shakedown
Well it's a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Shake you down, shake you down
And it's a nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
It's a shakedown on - you, yes

(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
I want you to hear me out there, this is for all

This a story of the saint rock 'n' roll
I want you to put your hand in your pocket
Take you ten dollars out and send it to me
Well, momma don't scold her son

Sister just pull his hair
This boy is lost, it's a living nightmare
It ain't fair

He got the lot to top the last shot
Shaker, he's a breaker, he's a faker, he's a

Landslide, walkin' talkin' rockin' landslide
Well Momma he ain't no toy
Never ever gets his share
Get this stack in a gunnysack
There'd still be room for air
This boy is lost, it's a rockin' love affair
He's out to scare
That boy, he don't know how to lose, he's got to
win
He got the lot to top the last shot
Shaker, he's a breaker, he's a faker, he's a
landslide
Landslide, walkin' talkin' rockin' landslide
Landslide, landslide, landslide, landslide
Preacher done say his prayer
Take him to the promised land
Momma done allow no git down here
Never gonna git up there
This boy is lost, like a rebel without cause
But he's the boss
That boy, he don't know how to lose, he's got to
win
He got the lot to top the last shot
Shaker, he's a breaker, he's a faker, he's a
landslide
Walkin' talkin' rockin' landslide
Landslide, landslide, landslide, landslide
Walkin' talkin' rockin' landslide
Landslide, landslide, landslide, landslide
That boy's a walkin' talkin' rockin' landslide

The word is out

A mischief maker
A lover of no fixed abode
Quick draw on the floor
No law give you more
Sweet talker, lover of sin

Look out woman -

Shoot you with desire
The guns for hire
Shoot you with desire

A big dictator
Gonna mark you with my brand

Shoot you with desire
Got gun's for hire

DEEP
IN THE HOLE TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
I've been enchained
She got shackles on me
That woman to blame
For the hell and misery
Can't find my way outta here
Shoot me down in a burnin' fear
Goin' down for a stretch of years
Way down below
CHORUS:
I'm deep in, deep in, deep in the hole
Deep in, deep in, deep in the hole
I'm down in, down in, down in the hole
Well I'm deep in, deep in
That woman got me deep in the hole
I'm sinking down
She got me down on the floor
Can't touch both walls
The further down I go
Pulls the strings on my violin bow
Makes me sing when she fire my load
Ain't no slave, you do what you're told
You sold your soul
CHORUS
I'm deep in, deep in, deep in the hole
Deep in, deep in, deep in the hole
I'm down in, down in, down in the hole
I'm down in, down in, down in the hole
Deep in the hole, firing your load
Deep in the hole, sell your soul
Deep in, deep in, deep in the hole
Deep in, deep in
That woman got me deep in the hole
Deep in the hole, down in the hole, I'm deep in
the hole
BEDLAM
IN BELGIUM TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
The blood in my veins
Was running right through my brain
There was a cop with a gun
Who was running around insane
Three fifty arrests
No bullet proof vest
Now ain't that a shame
We wanted to play
Play for the crowd
"No", said the wankers
"You're on your way out"
Bedlam in Belgium
Bedlam in Belgium
The place was a jumpin'
And the booze was going down
There's a curfew in town
You've been working overtime
We don't play just for pay
So we'd like to stay
Stay just the same
He gave me a crack
In the back with his gun
I bled so bad
I could feel the blood run
Bedlam in Belgium
It was bedlam in Belgium
Bedlam in Belgium
Came for a good time
Left on the run.
Bedlam in Belgium
Who's to blame, it's a shame
Bedlam in Belgium
It was bedlam
You gonna run out
Stage was stage
Cops enraged
Crying for more
It was war, war, war
Bedlam in Belgium
It was bedlam in Belgium
Bedlam in Belgium
Came for a good time
Left on the run.
Bedlam in Belgium
It was bedlam in Belgium
There was bedlam in Belgium
It was bedlam
And the law got the drop on me
BADLANDS
TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
I'm a pistol packin' man
With a gun in my hand
Lookin' for a woman that'll understand
I like to roll and I like to ride
I'll stop at nothing, never take me alive
I'm a man with a fast hand
Gotta get me on a last stand
Outlaw, quick draw
Evil talkin' bandit man
In the badlands, in the badlands
I got a 45 that'll make you fry
Burn your chassis lassie like the 4th of July
I ride it hard, I ride it high
Make love to you till you reach for the sky
I'm a man with a fast hand
Gotta get me on a last stand
Outlaw, quick draw
Evil talkin' bandit man
In the badlands, in the badlands
In the badlands, in the badlands
Well I'm guilty
Oh saddle up my six pack
Ain't gonna back track
My shooter loaded
Come on you, gonna give you a thrill
In the badlands, in the badlands
In the badlands, in the badlands
BRAIN
SHAKE TOP
(1983)
(Young, Young, Johnson)
Alright, hold tight
I want to ball tonight
On my fender, no space defender
I enjoy it on the floor, I get it tight
Toe to toe with a black widow
Fee Fi Fum, smell the blood of rock 'n' roll
All night drive on the rockin' suicide
My feet are jumping, she's a joy to ride
Joy to ride, a joy to ride
She's an all night drive on the rockin' suicide
And it's a brain shake, brain shake, brain shake
All I can take
Brain shake, brain shake, brain shake
She's a mean lean rocking machine
A hip hugging blue jean dream
She's a one course dinner, with a sweet sweet kiss
Her hips are right around me
And it's toe to toe with a black widow
Fee Fi Fum, smell the blood of rock 'n' roll
All night drive on the rockin' suicide
My feet are jumping, she's a joy to ride
Joy to ride, a joy to ride
She's an all night drive on the rockin' suicide
And it's a brain shake, brain shake, brain shake
Ready to shake
Brain shake, brain shake, brain shake
It's a brain shake brain shake brain shake
For mercy sake
It's a brain shake, brain shake, brain shake
She's a joy to ride
Joy to ride, a joy to ride
She's an all night drive on the rockin' suicide
Brain shake x3
Ready to shake
Brain shake x3
