"Motor City"

My old car keeps breaking down
My new car ain't from Japan
There's already too many Datsuns
In this town.

Another thing that's bugging me
Is this commercial on TV
Says that Detroit
can't make good cars any more.
Motor City.

Who's driving my car?
Who's driving my car now?
Who?

My army jeep is still alive
Got locking hubs and four wheel drive
Ain't got no radio,
ain't got no mag wheels
Ain't got no digital clock
Ain't got no clock.

The paint job is lookin' blue
The white walls are missing too
But I guess until I get my car back
This will do.

Who's driving my car now?
Who's driving my car now?
Who?

Who's driving my car now?

"Rapid Transit"

Rapid transit.
Public service.
I'm standing in my line.

Melt down.
Containment.
I'm standing in my line

Hang ten pipeline,
let's go trippin'
Hang ten pipeline,
let's go trippin'
Hang ten pipeline,
let's go trippin'
Every wave is new
until it breaks.

Go!

Secret service
Public enemy
I'm standing in my line

Hang ten pipeline,
let's go trippin'
Hang ten pipeline,
let's go trippin'
Hang ten pipeline,
no way rockin'
Every wave is new
until it breaks.

Go!

"Shots"

Shots
Ringing all along the borders
can be heard
Striking out
like a venom in the sky
Cutting through the air
faster than a bird
In the night.

Children
Are lost in the sand,
building roads
with little hands
Trying to join
their father's castles
together again
Will they make it?
Who knows where or when
Old wounds will mend?

Machines
Are winding their way along,
looking strong
Building roads
and bringing back
loads and loads
Of building materials
In the night

Men
Are trying to move the borders
on the ground
Lines between the different spots
that each has found
But back home
another scene was going down
In the night.

Lust
Comes creepin' through the night
to feed on hearts
Of suburban wives
who learned to pretend
When they met their dream's end
In the night.

Shots
I hear shots, I keep hearing shots
I keep hearing shots
I hear shots.

Shots
I hear shots, I keep hearing shots
I keep hearing shots
I hear shots.

But I'll never use your love,
You know I'm not that kind
And so if you give your heart away
I promise to you
Whatever we do
That I will always be true.

"Little Thing Called Love"

See somebody
walkin' down the street
Hangin' head
and a-shufflin' feet
Don't take much to see
What they've been thinkin' of.
What makes you hypnotized?
What puts a tear in your eye?
What makes you have to choose?
What brings you the blues?
A little thing called love
A little thing called love.

Only love puts a tear in your eye
Only love makes you hypnotized
Only love makes you choose
Only love brings you the blues.

Wait a minute now, honey
Don't be sad
This may be
the best love you ever had
That don't mean
that you had enough
A little thing called love
A little thing called love.

Only love puts a tear in your eye
Only love makes you hypnotized
Only love makes you choose
Only love brings you the blues.

A little thing called love
A little thing called love.

"Computer Age"

Cars and trucks
Fly by me on the corner
But I'm all right
Standin' proud
before the signal
When I see the light
I know I'm more
than just a number.
And I stand before you
Or else we
just don't see the other
Computer age computer age
Computer age.

Bikes and vans
Fly by me on the desert
But I'm all right
Standing out here
in the hot sun
When I see the light
I feel like
more than just a number
And I stand before you
Or else we
just don't see the other
Computer age computer age
Computer age.

Precious metal lines
Molded into highways
Running through me
So microscopically
Days and nights
Weeks and months and seasons
Rolling through me
So chronologically.
Computer age computer age
Computer age.

I need you
To let me know
that there's a heartbeat
Let it pound and pound
And I'll be
flying like a free bird
And you need me
Like ugly needs a mirror
And day by day
This horizon's getting clearer
Computer age computer age
Computer age.

"Transformer Man"

Transformer man, transformer man
You run the show
Remote control
Direct the action
with the push of a button
You're a transformer man
Power in your hand
Transformer man, transformer man.

Transformer man, transformer man
Sooner or later you'll have to see
The cause and effect
So many things still left to do
But we haven't made it yet
Every morning
when I look in your eyes
I feel electrified by you. Oh yes.

Transformer man, transformer man
Transformer man
Still in command
You're eyes are shining on a beam
Through the galaxy of love
Transformer man, transformer man
Unlock the secrets
Let us throw off the chains that
Hold you down.

Transformer man, transformer man
Sooner or later
you'll have to learn
The cause and effect
So many things still left to do
But we haven't made it yet
Every morning
when I look in your eyes
I feel electrified by you. Oh yes.

Transformer man, transformer man
Transformer man, transformer man

"Computer Cowboy"

Well, his cattle each have numbers
And they all eat in a line
When he turns the floodlights
on each night
Of course the herd looks perfect!
Computer Cowboy.

Well, he rides
the range 'til midnight
And the wild coyotes yowl
As he trots
beneath the floodlights
And of course
the rhythm is perfect!
Computer Cowboy.

Ride along computer cowboy
To the city just in time
To bring another system down
And leave your alias behind:
Computer syscrusher.

Computer syscrusher.

Crusher. Syscrusher.

Syscrusher.

Come a ky ky yippee yi yippee yi ay

Come a ky ky yippee yi ay.

Come a ky ky yippee yi yippee yi ay

Come a ky ky yippee yi ay.

"Hold On To Your Love"

Hold on to your love
Hold on to your love
Though you may feel
tired and blue.
The things you say,
The things you dream
you might do,
Come true if you
Hold on to your love.

How long the day?
How dark the night
spent apart?
Is this the way to learn?
Go your own way
Although you may
break a heart
Don't let it start
Hold on to your love.

Hold on to your love.
Hold on to your love.

The things you say,
The things you dream
you might do,
If only you
hold on to your love.
Hold on to your love.
