Looking for the right time To leave the place That I have lived and loved for so long Brother robs brother To get to the top ain’t That important in my street You got to stick together Don’t let them walk all over you Stand up and fight Stand up and fight Stand up and fight Time unfolds the fever The greed of man pursues his prey in anger No mercy from the mighty, nowhere to go Surrounded by his power Cheats always prosper, stones break bones The weak always suffer They will inherit the throne Death and destruction Evil will reign the weak always suffer They will inherit the pain Look over your shoulder when the lights go out Take it easy man, they’re trying you out

Don’t you know it, babe, I’m in love with your kind Charlie Snow is here, and we’ll have a good time Look at all the people feeling sorry for you Don’t you know it, baby, it’s the devil in you Hitch a lift to Kansas on a big yellow dodge You’re our kinda people down red wine lodge Pack your bags lady, are you ready to go ? Don’t you worry, honey, I got Charlie Snow. Heavy leathered lady has just hit town East and west will hear the noise for miles around Loud noises baby form the band on the beach With the help of Charlie Snow even the stars we’ll reach Lady leave those people in side show The pack in my pocket is our old friend Charlie Snow Oh so you think you’ll have a good time Tomorrow’s too late to change your mind Charlie Snow is a-comin’ and the black is a-blowin’ And I feel fine Chasin’ the dragon is my kind of magic And I’m out of my mind Oh so you think you’ll have a good time Tomorrow’s too late to change your mind

People searching for a good time Seen through a stranger’s eyes You never seem the same child You had me going crazy And kept on forgiving, one day you won’t come Back then maybe I’ll start livin’ Why don’t you leave me alone I keep on wishing you wouldn’t come too I can’t say no to you Lady bet you can’t remember How many times you lied And I just stood believing You had me going crazy And kept on forgiving One day you won’t come back Maybe I’ll start livin’ I know which way to burn I keep on thinking I ain’t gonna learn to Can’t say no to you Can’t say no to you Can’t say no to you Woman you got me where you want Time passes by but I can’t find no reason

My mother she got a lover As sure as hell, he don’t like me Too young to earn Two roads to choose I got to make sure I dirty my shoes Oh say you don’t love Oh say you don’t care I’m walkin’ for a future I ain’t a lost mother there I open up my eyes to wonder Take heed my friend I am returning My strength is hate Revenge I’m seeking I ain’t runnin’ I’ll choose my own way only time will tell Fallin’ at the crossroads it’s like a living hell I’m waiting and in my own time I’m gonna get revenge on you It’s hurting I’ve been deserted The finger points at you

Angel babe you took me by surprise Spread your wings and fly Take me for a ride above the clouds Across the universe Travelling at the speed of light Well she’s a rock n’ roll child Had her ups and downs Playing it hard breaking the rules Getting her kicks from the drugs and the booze Setting high, reaching out And touching the sky Well, she’s layin’ it down getting tough Letting ‘em drink from the furry cup The sun is blinding it gives her pain This rock’ n roll child is screwing her brain Trips the light fantastic Trying to blow her crazy mind Steps across the universe Has rainbows as her sign The intervening warrior Saves war between the worlds The journey of the soldier Begins but never ends Look at me look at you I’m floating Higher than you can Take a trip follow me See what I’ve seen, where I’ve been Well, she’s layin’ it down getting tough Letting ‘em drink from the furry cup The sun is blinding it gives her pain This rock’ n roll child is screwing her brain

Where do we come from Why are we here The chosen books do not agree The answers are not clear Strange things seen at night Stir the views of others Someone trying to contact us Why is it that no one bothers The scriptures cast the shadows Over heaven and hell Astronomers pass the buck The atomic storm will tell The great winds will blow Seas will swell Man will rise into the sky Will he be allowed to tell Why don’t somebody answer my questions I want to live The lure of distant places Is there for us to fear Excited by their mystery Tell us not to clear Travellers of both time and space Acknowledge my twisted brain Is there more to heaven and hell Am I the one insane There must be some life up there Too many lies offered Questions never answered His good book is condemned Not that I would disagree The bible stands for me Or was it really space men Travelled in the year BC.

See his eyes are shining Fire in the sky See a stranger smiling Laughing in his mind Hear the sirens wailing Through a smoky haze Turning on some crazy guy Staring all the blaze Wildfire smoking grass Standing in the shadows Watch the flames grow higher Frightened faces runnin’ scared And you’re the reason why Wildfire smoking grass You get the feelin’ that it could happen to you When you’re sleepin’ in a hotel room In the burning ashes you can hear them cry Something you remember till the day you die Wildfire smoking grass You get the feelin’ that it could happen to you When you’re sleepin’ in a hotel room In the burning ashes as you hear them cry Something you remember till the day you die Wildfire smoking grass Another place another time situation Some other crazy kinda way to get my inspiration
