Hey!
Is there a way I can get you to see
Hey!
All the hate, the lies, the hurt, and the anger
Hey!
The streets are empty now and you're so far gone, I think that:
Hey!
There's nothing more baby that I can do...
You were always talking about your heart and
How I would never "open up"...yea!
Hey!
I thought I'd finally made it up you
Hey!
I got in my car and I drove all the way home
Hey!
You should have thrown out that list a long time ago, but
Hey!
You know you threw me out instead...
You were always talking about your heart and
How I would never "open up"...yea!
Open up, yea!
Hey!
And now I hear you're leaving town..
Hey!
I've got this funny feelin'...you'll be back
Hey!
You know you should have left him a couple of times now, but
Hey!
I'm through, baby, playing your games
You were always talking about your heart and
How I would never "open up"...yea!
Hey! (many, many times)

The crowds of people and the rumble of buses
Helps keeps my mind in tune and ready to go
The clatter of heels and the scenes I love to hate
In a world where I am alien to all
And I am moving...on the wire
Taking it...on the wire
In this world of acid rain we went underground
Stuck in this city, you've got to chance it all
Never stand still, lest you want to fall back, keep running...
The shock will hit you harder, and you might not even know it
Because you're moving...on the wire
You're taking it, baby, ..on the wire
Someday we'll know how close we came to achieving
All those stupid goals we had set for ourselves
Self-survival can be a shock
but only if you let it
The fiery gaze of frozen faces
Stuck in this dull world...shades of grey
Electric voices behind dark corners
I reach out to grab but there won't be anyone there....
And I am moving...on the wire
Because I'm taking you, baby...on the wire
On the wire
On the wire
On the wire

Upside-down you're no free-form jazz
A heartless bitch, and you've got nowhere to burn
Evil witch, she's a flash of black, hiding out, I can't tell you
what she said
Though I tried to
And I tried
Open-ended left-hand world.....
High school loser with a "nowhere job"
He hung himself cuz his complexion was so bad
Nasty jingles at the county park
Another kid found drowning at the base of the falls...
Though I tried to
And I lied to
Open-ended left-hand world.....
High school hero with his head blown off
she realized too late that he had no brain
Rampant hormones with no where to go
Sometimes I feel that I'm not of this earth...of this earth....

Well I had me some women, and then I lost me some more
now when they come a knockin', I don't answer that door
Cuz I've learned my lesson
Ain't gonna go messin'
with love no more
with love no more
Well I had me a woman, down Pennsyltucky way
I woke up one morning alone, and there's my blue day
Now I'm just getting older
And my days getting colder
My horizon's turned grey
My blue day
So I'm telling you son, lest you forget
the more you chase women, the more you will regret it
So stay out of them hotels
and you'll stay out of them jail cells
spend your summer days
fishing in lake Du Parquet
My blue day
My blue day

Turn me around so I can see you look back at me
I like what I see
Turn me around and give me that smile that says: "I think I know"..
You created life where there was none before
You turned me around
You turned me around
You turned me around today
Twirl me around in your warm arms in the frosty night
I'll keep on dancing to the music in my head
You turned me around
You turned me around
You turned me around today
and when I kiss you all my troubles disappear
and when I kiss you all my troubles disappear
You turned me around
You turned me around
You turned me around today
You turned me around
You turned me around
You turned me around

Lately, when I go to sleep
I wake up with a knife in my hand
I would see you, the visage of death standing over me
I'd wake up, but I got lucky that time
The next thing I saw (as I lay on the ground)
Were people standing all around me
Their bloodshot faces looked up from a puddle (of blood) on the ground
I got up, and I walked through that "Valley of Eyes"
A man condemned, you had scarred me for life
I know you're out there...
the faceless angel of a murdering world
Never again will I be at the mercy of your soul..
Now in my dreams, I see your blood and it's squirting back at me
See ..you've created....another Angel of Death
another Angel of Death
another Angel of Death
another Angel of Death
another Angel of Death

Hope that you're listening baby
I hope you're listening close
Cuz here's one fish that you caught
that's slippery than most...
Baby, you're just a schoolgirl
Here's a lesson you can use
All the other women
Say that I'm bad news
You know you're not the first
You know you're not the last, baby
Bad news travels fast
My friends they all warned you
My heart is black as coal
But if you want to ride my highway, baby
well you've got to pay the toll
You know as a matter of fact
But that's where it's at
Bad new travels fast
Well don't you try to change me
I'll just string you along
Sit back and enjoy the ride
For tomorrow I'll be gone
I'll get you out of the house now
Your family life's a wreck
You're momma's trying to kill me baby
What did you expect?
You know you're not the first
You know you're not the last
Bad news travels fast
Come here, baby.....ooohh!
crazy guitar solo
Well don't you try to change me
I'll just string you along
Sit back and enjoy the ride
For tomorrow I'll be gone
Baby. you're just a schoolgirl
Here's a lesson you can learn
If you want my lovin' baby
We you've got to wait your turn
You know that I'm bad
But that's where it's at
bad news travels fast
bad news travels fast
bad news travels fast
