12. All Wound Up

[Kevin DuBrow -- Carlos Cavazo -- Frankie Banali - Bob Pavao]

Got an active imagination
Just one look, I've got it bad
Got a dose of your inspiration
Hang 'em high, salute the flag

Come on babe, don't I know you
Come on girl, lend a hand
'Cos I'm all wound up, down on your knees

Losing all your inhibitions
Looks to me like heavens gate, all right
You can see by my condition
Hold on tight, we got it made, made, made

Get down, assume the position
Look out before I lose control
'Cos I'm all wound up, down on your knees
'Cos I'm all wound up, got what you need

Looks to me like we're in business
Close the deal, it's time to go - get on home
Seems to me by your reaction
You must have already loved the show oh no

Come on babe, don't I know you
Come on girl, lend a hand
'Cos I'm all wound up, down on your knees
'Cos I'm all wound up, got what you need
Got what you need look out baby!

'Cos I'm all wound up,
'Cos I'm wound up tight feeling alright
Do with, do with, do with right all right

13. Hell Or High Water

[Carlos Cavazo - Kevin DuBrow - Frankie Banali]

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

They're out to get you anyway they can
It just might hurt you, but then again
It's just a token of the extreme
Listen, that pain won't gain you nothing
Don't turn your back or something
Will come back to haunt you
Ain't no rule, says you'll be their fool

Hell or high water
We rebel when we call for
I said Hell or high water

Don't try too suck me into a trap
Don't try to bite my baby cause I bite back
What were you thinking, you turn me loose
Well, it's mind over matter
I don't mind and you don't matter
Can't take no prisoners who don't want to be
I can't see whose hand it feeds

Hell or high water
We rebel when we call for
I said Hell or high
Water down the drain is of no use to me
Don't cry over spilt milk, it makes me wanna scream

Hell or high water
We rebel when we call for
I said Hell or high water

Nothing's gonna stop me now - No! No!
No one's gonna push me around - Alright!
Hell or high water

Hell or high water

15. Slam Dunk

[Kevin Dubrow - Harry Perris]

Slam dunk - way to go!
What do ya say, Let's rock 'n roll

Well I come to play and I play to win
Just say the word and I'll stuff it in
I'm gonna slam it all the way
Dunk it, what do you say

When the whistle blows I'm gonna fly the coup
Just pump me up and watch me shoot
Slam it - Touch the rim
Dunk it - Thrust it in

I won't sing no sweet romantic song
But I can do ya, I can do ya
You'll never know right from wrong
Here we go

Slam dunk way to go
What do you say, let's rock 'n roll
Slam dunk climb the pole
Drive through the middle and jam it home
Slam dunk
Take control, pick it up baby,
Let's do it some more
Pick it baby, Let's do it some more
That's right

I want two, four, six, eight, ten and more
A wham-bam shooter I love to score
Jam it - Bump and grind!
Pump it! -- Come on do it right!

Shake it o the left, fake it to the right
Dunk it in the bucket, it feels alright
Jam it -- bump and grind
Pump it.

Well, I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
I can double your trouble and triple your body heat
Just like this

Slam dunk way to go
What do you say, let's rock 'n roll
Slam dunk climb the pole
Drive through the middle and jam it home
Slam dunk
Take control, pick it up baby,
Let's do it some more
Pick it baby, Let's do it some more

Well, I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
I can double your trouble and triple your body heat

Slam dunk way to go
What do you say, let's rock 'n roll
Slam dunk climb the pole
Drive through the middle and jam it home
Slam dunk
Take control, pick it up baby,
Let's do it some more
Slam dunk way to go
Go, go let's go
Slam dunk
Take control, pick it up baby,
Let's do it some more
Pick it up baby,
Let's do it some more

16. Love Can Change You

[Lieberman -- Cesario]

I was wrong baby, you were right
That doesn't make us enemies tonight
I'm so sorry for the things I've done
Acting too big to see the damage I've done
Those crazy nights are dead and gone
I never knew my heart could be so strong baby

Love can change you
Won't you let me love you tonight oh baby
Love can change you
I can't hold back this feeling inside oh no

I made promises I couldn't keep
Never thinking I'd get in so deep
I thought love was just a state of mind
A place where lonely people wasted precious time
Well, you showed me how to rise again
And you made me see just what I've been missing

Love can change you
Won't you let me love you tonight oh baby
Love can change you
I can't hold back this feeling inside oh no

I didn't want to let you see
Just how bad you got to me
Now I need your touch
Cause I'm too much in love

Those crazy nights are dead and gone
I never knew my heart could be so strong baby

Love can change you
Won't you let me love you tonight oh baby
Love can change you
I can't hold back
I can't hold back no, no, no
Love can change you
Let me love you baby
You drive me my through heart crazy

1. Don't Know What I Want

Pissed off - Got nothing to say,
Nothing to do
Why do I feel this way ?
Mixed up - The will to survive
But I can't tell if I'm dead or alive
A no win situation
What can you do ?
Of my own creation
I don't have a clue.

I don't know, don't know,
Don't know what I want
I don't know, don't know,
But I want it now
Right now !

Hang on - Don't know if I can
How much can I take
How much can I stand
Tied down - By things that I hide
I bite my lip I swallow my pride

Emptiness ivades me
Tries to push you auround
Happiness escapes me
Here's what I found

I don't know, don't know,
Don't know what I want
I don't know, don't know,
Don't But I want it now
Yes I do !

Don't wanna go but but I gotta get away
Damned if you do
And damned if you don't
My cross to bear if I stay this way
Your power of will has left you alone,
All alone

Lookin' for an answer
I can't believe where I've been
Headed for disaster
The way that I see

2. Angry

Not a lover not a fighter
Always out of my league
Sometimes maybe
Life ain't what it seems
There's a man in the back say's
I gotta keep still
Someone at the front door
Says just do what you will
Do what you will !
My ears are ringing
With voices unclear
The sun is setting
Is it love or is it fear

I'm angry
I'm an angry young man
When love ain't enough
Angry-I'm an angry young man when
My heart's gettin tough
I'm an angry young man
Yes I am !

Running down the alley
On a hot summer's day
Fellin kinda dangerous-trouble
One step away
Well I'm walkin the walk
And I'm talkin the talk
But when it comes to lovin
I'm alone in the dark
Yes I am !
Runnin on empty under the gun
The pressure's building
The storm has just begun...

Angry
I'm an angry young man
When love ain't enough
Angry-I'm an angry young man when
My heart's gettin tough
Angry I'm an angry young man when
I can't get enough
I'm an angry young man
When push comes to shove
I'm an angry young man !

Give it to me !

I got emotional baggage
That I drag around
With all this dirty laundry
I gotta get outa town
Yes I do !
Say hello to my demons
I count then as friends
Ain't no denyin they'll be here til
The end.

Cause I'm angry...

Angry, angry I feel hopeless
Angry angry, I love my face.

3. Alive And Well

Headin down the wrong way
On a one way street
Lookin for love but it ain't
Lookin for me
I feel like a fool
But what do you expect
Life is to short to waste on regrets

Look at me now it must be
Hard to tell...

That I'm alive and well
I'm alive and well
And I'm here to tell
That I'm alive and well

Ten years later and it's all the same
No reason to bitch but I still complain
God only knows what God only knows
How can we find the key to it all

Lookin at me now it must be
Hard to tell...

Look out !

Closer to the truth the
Harder it seems
Hell if I know what
It's supposed to mean
With all the struggle that we endure
A little bit of faith could be the cure

Every time you think it's all
Going to hell... Remember...

I'm alive, you're alive
We are alive and well
And we here to tell
That we're alive and well
A little metal health
Is still alive and well

Get to the point, it won't take long
A little bit of faith is gonna carry on

The ride that we take is shorter
Than it seems
The good things in life don't have to stay dreams.

4. Ritual

Call of the wild has been
Draggin me down
Spirit controls what's inside you
Tears flow like blood
in a hot open flame
A sign of the fire inside you
We gotta give it up-We can't resist
We gotta get away

[Chorus]

Time stands still
When your having fun
But you pay the price
When the day is done
Kindred Spirits come one by one
When the day turns black
We will become-
The ritual

Down in a hole
When the sky closes in
And darkness will fall upon you
Walk into the light
To be free from the spell
Let the ritual surround you

Is it at the rainbow's end
Out in the cold
Is just a breath away

Time stands still
When your having fun
But you pay the price
When the day is done
Kindred Spirits come one by one
When the day turns black
We will become-
The ritual

We couldn't give up
We still persist
We couldn't get away-no

5. Overworked And Underpaid

I wake up-and try and
Face another day
Here we are-just another
Link in the chain
It's so tough-to reach the top
From down on your knees
here we go on this road-were
onlytryin to make ends meet
They throw you a bone
Take your piece of the pie
And reap what you've sawn
As we reach for the sky

Overworked and underpaid
Same old problem, a diffrent day
You bust your ass for
A minimum wage
It really sucks...your life away

Dead end job-from the craddle
To the grave
Break your back-say hello to the
American way
Black and blue-had my ass
Handed to me
The time card of life keeps
You runnin dead on your feet
Your taxed to the max
And knee deep in debt
Your credit is trashed
Still we reach for the sky

Overworked and underpaid
Same old problem, a diffrent day
You bust your ass for
A minimum wage
It really sucks...your life away

Gimme gimme, your power
And your greed
Come on come on, I'll show
You how it feels
Stand back, it cuts both ways
The table's turned
It's pay day
Get paid !
Paid-up !
