@ALBUM: Vacation Artist: The Go-Go's 1982 I.R.S. Records ------------------------- @SONG: Vacation (Kathy Valentine/Charlotte Caffey/Jane Wiedlin) Can't seem to get my mind off of you Back here at home there's nothin' to do Now that I'm away I wish I'd stayed Tomorrow's a day of mine that you won't be in When you looked at me I should've run But I thought it was just for fun I see I was wrong And I'm not so strong I should've known all along that time would tell A week without you Thought I'd forget Two weeks without you and I Still haven't gotten over you yet CHORUS Vacation All I ever wanted Vacation Had to get away Vacation Meant to be spent alone A week without you Thought I'd forget Two weeks without you and I Still haven't gotten over you yet CHORUS ------------------------------------------- @SONG: He's So Strange (Charlotte Caffey/Phillips/Custis/Jane Wiedlin) He's coming out tonight He'll walk outside the light You'll feel him very near Confusion nothing's clear His presence cold and stark Like a shadow in the dark You're scared but you won't run You almost wish it was over and done CHORUS You can't escape the thought of him Do you wonder why? He's so strange And if he brought you down to your knees Would you cry? He's so strange He frightens you so much He could burn you with his touch Everything has changed He's so strange You've lost all track of time The victim of a crime He's stolen heart and soul He's taken all control Is this some crazy dream? Obsession the main theme Though you can't see the chains You're the prisoner of a love so strange CHORUS ----------------------------------------------- @SONG: Girl of 100 Lists (Jane Wiedlin) Ghetto blasters, phony jewels Cathedrals, castles, making up rules Trashy novels and leather gloves This is a list of the things I love CHORUS I am the girl of 100 lists >From what shall I wear To who I have kissed Check items off Let nothing be missed Sing I to myself and my 100 lists Pick up your laundry, doctor's at ten We're out of toothpaste, rehearsal (again) Stop by the bank and cash my pay These are the things I must get done today CHORUS Ricky and Danny and Terry and Jim Dean lasted six months-don't forget him Perhaps some day this list will end Till then I tally my gentlemen friends CHORUS ------------------------------------------------ @SONG: We Don't Get Along (Kathy Valentine) I'm not very serious You want me to be straight I'm not out of time But you think I'm too late I'm not feeling desperate You think I can't wait CHORUS Somehow you always get me wrong Somehow you always take things wrong Somehow you always get me wrong Well I guess we just don't get along You always go to sleep When I stay up all night You say I'm wrong When I'm thinkin' you're alright I just wanna talk things over You just wanna fight CHORUS You leave me broken And you don't realize Everything is O.K. And then you apologize The things that really matter to me They just pass you by CHORUS ---------------------------------------------- @SONG: I Think It's Me (Charlotte Caffey/Belinda Carlisle) Can't take anymore My head's spinning 'round Goin' back and forth Goin' up and down CHORUS Don't know where I stand Someone always loves a little more And I think it's me Sometimes I think you care And then you don't Then I think you will And then you won't CHORUS Wonderin' why I feel this way Could it be something that you said Or is it just some daydream When I think of you and me Then I see you pass me by With that certain look in your eye Now I'm back where I began Not knowin' where I stand-I think it's me Go ahead now Take a chance Don't worry 'bout losin' another romance CHORUS ------------------------------------------------- @SONG: It's Everything But Partytime (Jane Wiedlin/Gina Schock) This is the place for celebrating This is the crowd that's fascinating This is the time for concentrating To hear some words worth translating He's rapping 'bout his meditating She's dying for some medicating And though I shouldn't be complaining What's lacking here is entertaining CHORUS We're all looking for a good time But what we get is empty rhyme When everything's right but nothing's fine It's everything but partytime Talk about decorating A room that needs sophisticating When coversations become straining No one's good at interest feigning CHORUS -------------------------------------------------- @SONG: Get Up and Go (Charlotte Caffey/Jane Wiedlin) If you get up and walk away Leave the past behind Go ahead and take a ride No telling what you'll find The words you say don't mean a thng They fly right by my eyes Lokin the mirror don't look at me Maybe then you'll realize CHORUS So get up and go If you're so tired of moving slow I was on the inside Looking out for you But you're the one to make the change There's nothing I can do Now's the time for you to move Actions shout out loud So cut the talk and move your feet Cuz words get lost in crowds CHORUS Quit talking Start walking now ------------------------------------------- @SONG: This Old Feeling (Charlotte Caffey/Jane Wiedlin) This old feeling It's new to me I'm not sure How I should be I'd tattoo my vow For all to see To prove how much You mean to me A million times said In as many songs But before you I could never sing along I love you I do I love you I do This old feeling It's got me up I can't believe My good luck I'd wait at your door Till eternity Because you mean That much to me -------------------------------- @SONG: Cool Jerk (Donald Storball) Cool jerk Cool jerk Cool jerk Cool jerk Well I know a cat who can really do the cool jerk I know a cat who can really do the cool jerk Well this cat that you're talkin' about Has nothing, nothing on me 'Cuz I know I'm the heppest cat The heppest cat that ever could be CHORUS Well they see me walkin' down the street The say hey!
