| BAT OUT OF HELL II LYRICS I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)
And I would do anything for love,
I'd run right into hell and back, I would do anything for love, I'll never lie to you and that's a fact. But I'll never forget the way you feel right now - Oh no - no way - I would do anything for love, But I wont do that, I wont do that, Some days it don't come easy, Some days it don't come hard Some days it don't come at all, And these are the days that never end. Some nights you breath fire, Some nights your carved in ice, Some nights your like nothing I've ever seen before, Or will again. Maybe I'm crazy, But it's crazy and it's true, I know you can save me, No one else can save me now but you. As long as the planets are turning, As long as the stars are burning, As long as your dreams are coming true - You better believe it!- I would do anything for love! I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, But I wont do that, I wont do that... I would do anything for love, Anything you've been dreaming of, But I just wont do that... Some days I pray for Silence, Some days I pray for Soul, Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N' Roll. Some nights I lose the feeling, Some nights I lose control, Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls. Maybe I'm lonely, And that's all I'm qualified to be, There's just one and only, The one and only promise I can keep. As long as the wheels are turning, As long as the fires are burning, As long as your prayers are coming true - You better believe it -! That I would do anything for love! And you know it's true and that's a fact, I would do anything for love! And there'll never be no turning back - But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, So long - So long - I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, But I wont do that, I wont do that! I would do anything for love, Anything you've been dreaming of, But I just wont do that... But I'll never stop dreaming of you Every night of my life - No Way - I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, But I wont do that, I wont do that! Girl: Will you raise me up? Will you help me down? Will you help get me right out of this God forsaken town? Will you make it a little less cold? Meat Loaf: I can do that! I can do that! Girl: Will you hold me sacred? will you hold me tight? Can you colorize my life I'm so sick of black and white? Can you make it a little less old? Meat Loaf: I can do that! I can do that! Girl: Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands? Can you build an Emerald city with these grains of sand? Can you give me something that I can take home? Meat Loaf: I can do that! I can do that! Girl: Will you cater to every fantasy that I've got? Will ya hose me down with holy water - if I get too hot - ? Will you take me to places that I've never known? Meat Loaf: I can do that! I can do that! Girl : After a while you'll forget everything, It was a brief interlude, And a midsummer night's fling, And you'll see that it's time to move on. Meat Loaf: I won't do that! I won't do that! Girl : I know the territory - I've been around, It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down, And sooner or later you'll be screwing around. Meat Loaf: I won't do that! I won't do that! Anything for love, I would do anything for love, I would do anything for love, But I won't do that, I won't do that. Life is a Lemon And I Want My Money Back
I want my money back (rpt x 4)
It's all or nothin' And nothin's all I ever get, Every time I turn it I burn it up and burn it out There's always something, There's always something going wrong. That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about. It's a never ending attack. Everything's a lie and that's a fact. (1) Life is a lemon and I want my money back! And all the morons, and all the stooges with their coins, Their the ones who make the rules, it's not a game it's just a rout There's desperation, (there's desperation) There's desperation in the air. It leaves a stain on all your clothes and no detergent gets it out. And we're always slippin' through the cracks. Then the movie's over, fade to black. (2) Life is a lemon and I want my money back What about love? It's defective! It's always breakin' in half. What about sex? It's defective! It's never built to really last. What about your family? It's defective! All the batteries are shot. What about your friends? Their defective! All the parts are out of stock. What about your god? It's defective! They forgot the warranty. What about your town? It's defective! It's a dead end street to me. What about your school? It's defective! it's a pack of useless lies. What about your work? It's defective! It's a crock and then you die. What about hope? It's defective! It's corroded and decayed. What about faith? It's defective! It's tattered and it's frayed. What about your childhood? It's defective! It's dead and buried in the past. What about your future? It's defective! And you can shove it up your ASS! I want my money back (Life is a Lemon)! (rpt x4) Repeat (1) and (2) Add guitar solo Rock And Roll Dreams Come Through You can't run away forever
And I never really sleep anymore,
And I always get those dangerous dreams And I never get a minute of peace, And I gotta wonder what it means And I gotta wonder what it means Maybe it's nothing and I'm under the weather Maybe it's just one of those bugs going round Maybe I'm under a spell and it's magic Maybe there's a witch doctor with an office in town Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse? Does it get any better? Can it get any worse? Will it go on forever or is it over tonight? Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light? Is it richer than diamonds or just a little cheaper than spit? I don't know what it is I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit And there used to be such an easy way of living And there used to be every hope in the world And I used to get everything that I went after But there never used to be this girl, But there never used to be this girl Maybe I'm crazy and I'm losing my senses Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such Maybe I'm desperate and I've got no defences Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch? Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse? Does it get any better? Can it get any worse? Will it go on forever or is it over tonight? Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light? It's a stairway to heaven or a subway going down to the pits Is it some kind of love? I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is but it just won't quit I don't know what it is I don't know what it is but it just won't quit There was a time when nothing ever really mattered There was a time when there was nothing I didn't know There was a time when I knew just what I was living for There was a time and the time was so long ago There was a time and the time was so long ago And I never really sleep anymore Out Of The Frying Pan (And Into The Fire)
It's only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to
soar,
And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead, It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored, And breathing is just no fun anymore, And then I saw you like a summer dream, And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said. I saw you like a summer dream and you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said, You can feel the pulde of the pavement racing like a runaway horse, The subways are sizzling and the skin of the street is gleaming with sweat, I've seen you sitting on the steps outside, And you were looking so restless and wreckless and lost, I think it's time for you to come inside side, And I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget, I think it's time for you to come inside side, And I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget Come on! Come on! And there'll be no turning back. You were only killing time and it will kill right back, Come on! Come on! It's time to burn up the fuse, You've got nothing to do and even less to lose, You've got nothing to do and even less to lose, So wander down the ancient hallway, Taking the stairs only one at a time, Follow the sound of my heartbeat now, I'm in the room at the top, You're at the end of the line, Open the door and lay down on the bed, The sun is just a ball of desire. And I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the) Out of the frying pan (and into the) Out of the frying pan (and into the fire) And into the fire! fire! fire! And into the fire! fire! fire! And into the fire! fire! fire! It's only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soar, And all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living dead, It's never been this hot and I've never been so bored, And breathing is just no fun anymore, And then I saw you like a summer dream, And you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said. I saw you like a summer dream and you're the answer to every prayer that I ever said, You can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horse, The subways are sizzling and the skin of the street is gleaming with sweat, I've seen you sitting on the steps outside, And you were looking so restless and reckless and lost, I think it's time for you to come inside side, And I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget, I think it's time for you to come inside side, And I'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forget Come on! Come on! And there'll be no turning back. You were only killing time and it will kill right back, Come on! Come on! It's time to burn up the fuse, You've got nothing to do and even less to lose, You've got nothing to do and even less to lose, So wander down the ancient hallway, Taking the stairs only one at a time, Follow the sound of my heartbeat now, I'm in the room at the top, You're at the end of the line, Open the door and lay down on the bed, The sun is just a ball of desire.

Wasted Youth
Wasted Youth I remember everything I remember every little thing as if it only happened yesterday I was barely seventeen, and I once killed a boy with a fender guitar I don't remember if it was Telecaster or Stratocaster But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome, and a voice like a horny angel I don't remember if it was Telecaster or Stratocaster But I do remember that it wasn't at all easy It required the perfect combination of the right power chords And the precise angle from which to strike! The guitar bled for about a week afterwards And the blood was soo, dark and rich, like wild berries The blood of the guitar was Chuck Berry red The guitar bled for about a week afterwards But it rung out beautifully And I was able to play notes that I had never even heard before So I took my guitar And I smashed it against the wall I smashed it against the floor I smashed it against the body of a varsity cheerleader Smashed it against the hood of a car Smashed it against a 1981 Harley-Davidson The Harley howled in pain The guitar howled in heat And I ran upstairs to my parents bedroom Mummy and Daddy were sleeping quietly in the moonlight Slowly I opened the door Creeping into the shadows right up to the foot of their bed I raised the guitar high above my head And just as I was about to bring the guitar crashing down upon the centre of the bed My father woke up, screaming "STOP" "Wait a minute, stop it boy. What do you think your doing?" "That's no way to treat an expensive musical instrument" And I said "God damn it Daddy" "You know I love you, But you've got a hell of a lot to learn about Rock 'n' Roll" Everything Louder Than Everything Else
Wasted youth! Wasted youth!
I know that I will never be politically correct And I don't give a damn about my lack of etiquette As far as I'm concerned, the world could still be flat And if the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back If the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back Who am I? Why am I here? Forget the questions, someone gimme another beer What's the meaning of life, what's the meaning of it all? You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl So sign up all you raw recruits, Throw away those designer suits You got your weapons cocked, Your targets in your sights There's a party raging somewhere in the world You gotta serve your country, Gotta service your girl You're all enlisted in the armies of the night And I ain't in it for the power, And I ain't in it for my health I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all And I sure ain't in it for the wealth But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop If you wanna get it done, You gotta do it yourself And I like my music like I like my life Everything louder than everything else, Everything louder than everything else, Everything louder than everything else, Everything louder than everything else, Everything louder than everything else, Everything louder than everything else, Wasted youth! Wasted youth! Wasted youth! Wasted youth! They got a file on me and it's a mile long And they say that they got all of the proof That I'm just another case of arrested development And just another wasted youth They say that I'm in need of some radical discipline They say I gotta face the truth That I'm just another case of arrested development And just another wasted youth They say I'm wild and I'm reckless, (wild, wild, wild) I should be acting my age I'm an impressionable child in a tumultuous world And they say I'm at a difficult stage But it seems to me to the contrary Of all the crap they're going to put on the page That a wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age A wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age A wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age A wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age A wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age A wasted youth is better by far Than a wise and productive old age If you want my views of history Then there's something you should know The three men I admire most Are Curly, Larry and Mo! If you don't worry 'bout the future, Sooner or later it's the past And if they say the thrill is gone, Then it's time to take it back If the thrill is gone, Then it's time to take it back So sign up all you raw recruits, Throw away all those two-bit suits You got your weapons cocked, Your targets in your sights There's a party raging somewhere in the world You gotta serve your country, Gotta service your girl You're all inducted in the armies of the night And I ain't in it for the power, And I ain't in it for my health I ain't in it for the glory of anything at all And I sure ain't in it for the wealth But I'm in it till it's over and I just can't stop If you wanna get it done, You gotta fight for yourself And I like my music like I like my life Everything louder than everything else Everything louder than everything else Everything louder than everything else Good Girls Go To Heaven (Bad Girls Go Everywhere)
Good girls go to heaven
But the bad girls go everywhere When the wind is howling through your window pane It's not the only pain of the night You're burning up in your bed, you got a fever of love And there's not an anti-body in sight Hey Jenny, Jenny, why are you crying? There's a beauty of a moon in the sky But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life You never lift your head and look so high You don't have a lot, but it's all that you've got And you can turn it into more than it seems Just give it a shot, Fantasize every movement And imagine every inch of your dream No one said it had to be real But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel now It ain't right, it ain't fair Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air And the good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere Good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere Somebody told me so, Somebody told me now I know Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the Good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere When the sweat is sizzling on your skin in the dark And you're desperate now for somewhere to turn Every muscle in rebellion, every nerve is on edge And every limb has been erotically burned Hey Johnny, Johnny, why are you shaking? When a boy should do whatever he can You've been nothing but an angel every day of your life And now you wonder what it's like to be damned You don't have a lot, but it's all that you've got And you can turn it into more than it seems Just give it a shot, Fantasize every movement And imagine every inch of your dream No one said it had to be real But it's gotta be something you've been wanting to feel now It ain't right, it ain't fair Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air And the good boys go to heaven, But the bad boys go everywhere Good boys go to heaven, But the bad boys go everywhere Somebody told me so, Somebody told me now I know Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the Good boys go to heaven, But the bad boys go everywhere Every time I try and dream you, I can't believe how hard it's been to Conjure up your face And trace your body in the air All the seconds go on forever, But the thirds and fourth ones are even better Every time I do it just a little bit longer Every time I dream, It's just a little bit stronger than real life No one said it had to be real But it's gotta be something you can reach out and feel, now! It ain't right, it ain't fair Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air And the good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere Good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere Somebody told me so, Somebody told me now I know Every night in my prayer, I'll be praying that the Good girls go to heaven, But the bad girls go everywhere (fade out) Love's an hourglass
Lost boys and golden girls,
Down on the corner and all around the world Lost boys and golden girls Down on the corner and all around, all around the world It doesn't matter where they're going, Or wherever they've been 'Cause they got one thing in common it's true They'll never let a night like tonight go to waste And let me tell you something, Neither will you, neither will you We gotta be fast, we were born out of time, Born out of time and alone And we'll never be as young as we are right now Running away and running for home, Running for home Lost boys and golden girls, Down on the corner and all around the world Lost boys and golden girls Down on the corner and all around, and all around the world |
