Don't Get Mad... Get Even

If promises were dollars I'd be a millionaire Instead I'm living in squalor And getting skinny and pale You know your phone is always busy Or else you put me on hold I'm getting hungry and dizzy And this is getting real old The postman don't ring twice of my house In fact he don't ring at all No U.P.S. no Federal Express Won't somebody give me a call You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say you'll pay me tomorrow But tomorrow never comes I got nowhere to borrow It's time to get out the guns The light in the tunnel Is just an oncoming train Better listen to the rumble 'Cause it's the calm before the rain The postman don't ring twice of my house In fact he don't ring at all No U.P.S. no Federal Express Won't somebody give me a call You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail I look every day 'Cause the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I'd really be surprised The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I've been knocking 'round your door The check's in the mail I got something in store Don't tell me baby Can't take it no more You say the check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I'm getting my gun The check's in the mail I'm gonna have me some fun Don't tell me baby Because I've heard it before You say the check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I'm getting my gun The check's in the mail I'm gonna have me some fun Don't tell me baby Because I've heard it before You say the check's in the mail

I never get mad I only get even You think I've been had Well facts are deceiving If you believe in your mortality You better watch your step and don't mess with me Not me - Cause you're fooling yourself Not me - must be somebody else Not me - get a hold of yourself Not me I'm an accident just waiting to occur I'm that sleeping dog you don't want to stir If you believe in your mortality Well I'm the trouble that you don't want to seek Not me - Cause you're fooling yourself Not me - must be somebody else Not me - get a hold of yourself Not me I carry a grudge like a ten-ton weight Don't try to judge and don't contemplate I'm out for blood and you're tempting fate I'm burning my candles at every end You know that's mine I'm trouble ahead around every bend You know that's mine That's me - now you're fooling yourself Not me - must be somebody else Not me - I'll be casting a spell Not me - get a hold of yourself Not me - must be somebody else Not me - I'll be out raising hell That's me - Cause you're fooling yourself Not me - must be somebody else

You're a pyromaniac on the loose A siren waiting with a very short fuse Set me ablaze with your passionate kiss A searing temptation no man could resist Play with your matches Turn me to ashes I fell right from the start For the arsonist of the heart Igniting me with your spark Seductive flames got me hypnotized Engulfing me right before my eyes You smile and burn me right off of my feet Another victim of your all-consuming heat Play with your matches Turn me to ashes I fell right from the start For the arsonist of the heart Igniting me with your spark A heart burner in the dark You're an arsonist of the heart You're an arsonist of the heart Igniting me with your spark A heart burner in the dark You're an arsonist of the heart For the arsonist of the heart Igniting me with your spark You're an arsonist of the heart A heart burner in the dark You're an arsonist of the heart

I've seen the north side of heaven I've lived the south side of empty hell Black days and bluer nights I couldn't hide in the spotlight Got an angel's smile With the devil's guite She's back, she's back back in town The best thing that's been around She's back, she's back back in town Back in town I've seen her legs in my dreams I've seen her face in magazines White heat and red lights A one-way street through the dead of night Got an angel's smile With the devil's guite Won't you thrill me - Chill me - kill me She's back, she's back back in town The best thing that's been around She's back, she's back back in town Back in town She's back, she's back back in town The best thing that's been around She's back, she's back back in town Back in town She's back, she's back back in town The best thing that's been around She's back, she's back back in town Back in town, back in town She's back

Tipper says, I can't, while I say I can Better duck 'cause you know what just hit the fan 1984 in 1986 Putting us all in a terrible fix Rock 'n' roll don't carry no guns Rock 'n' roll never killed anyone We take no promises and none of your lip 'Cause we ain't about to lie down and quit Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud So turn it up loud Freedom of speech gives us the right to rock 'Cause we ain't about to turn back the clock To a brave new world void of all passion Where silence is golden and the latest of fashion Rock and roll was always meant to be Rock and roll we want it on TV You can't stop us with any of your laws 'Cause rockin' and rollin' is our fighting cause Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud Hey, you know I got a good idea, I think we ought to write These people a nice long letter With a brick taped to it Would you help me throw it? 'Cause I feel, if it's too loud You're too old Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud

The ashtray's full and the bed's unmade My room looks like a terrorist raid Got dirty clothes all over the place Why did you have to go away? Got no place to go, got no reason to stay All I can do is sit back and wait 'Cause seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days without you Seems like an eternity Through Monday would never get through And Tuesday took a year or two All Wednesday I spent in a dark saloon The rest of the week I stayed in my room Got no place to go, got no reason to stay All I can do is sit back and wait 'Cause seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days without you Seems like an eternity Seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days 'Cause seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days without you Seems like an eternity 'Cause seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days without you Seems like an eternity Seven days without you Surely makes one weak Seven days without you Seems like an eternity Seven days, seven days Seven days, seven days Seven days

I've waited too long for us to be alone Always trying to ditch our chaperone Looking to the left and looking to the right Trying to escape with you into the night We're sneaking out Heading south You and me little girl Clandestinely Can't go to your place 'cause your folks are there And over at my house we'd get nailed on the stairs Ain't got no money to get ourselves a room I guess your back seat will just have to do We're sneaking out Heading south You and me little girl Clandestinely Fogging the windows up with our hot steamy breath To get caught now would be a fate worse than death We're sneaking out Heading south You and me little girl Clandestinely Yeah, We're sneaking out Heading south
