I sit around at night and listen to the radio If I get real bored I might have a little smoke Yeah I got a permit to wear this .38 But listen my life's worth more than the minimum wage Repeat choruses @SONG: Something Big It didn't feel like Sunday Didn't feel like June When he met his silent partner in that lonely corner room That over looked the marquee Of the Plaza all-adult And he was not lookin' for romance -- just someone he could trust Chorus And it wasn't no way to carry on It wasn't no way to live But he could put up with it for a little while He was workin' on something big Speedball rang the night clerk Said, "Send me up a drink" The night clerk said "It's Sunday man, ...wait a minute let me think There's a little place outside of town that might Still have some wine" Speedball said, "Forget it, can I have an outside line? Repeat chorus It was Monday when the daymaids Found the still made bed All except the pillows that lay stacked Up at the head And one said, "I know I've seen his face I wonder how he is? The other said, "Probably just another clown Workin' on something big" @SONG: Kings Road Well they put me out on the old Kings Road I didn't know which way to go There was people all around wearin' funny lookin' clothes Some boys, some girls, some I don't know Chorus I didn't know which way to go I'm a new world boy on the old Kings Road Rockabilly music was in the air I looked in the door, they said, "Come over here" They had socks and shirts and underwear That I'd seen before, but I don't know where Repeat chorus A Pakistani man said, "Listen here Let me fix you up before you go back there You can't get 'em in the USA Not in New York City, not in West LA." I thought about it, said, "I don't know I'm a new world boy on the old Kings Road" @SONG: Letting You Go I used to think that when this was all over You might feel different 'bout me Yeah I always knew, one day you'd come around Now I wonder if dreams are just dreams Chorus Whoah oh whoah oh oh I'm having trouble Letting you go Repeat Baby look out your window, it's raining on your summer home You're by the fire keeping warm and dry There's no one as honest as those in pain Oh honey can't you see me? Will you let me inside? Repeat Chorus It's a restless world, uncertain times You said hope was getting hard to find But time rolls on, days go by What about the broken ones? What about the lonely ones? Oh honey I'm having trouble letting you go It's off in the distance, somewhere up the road There's some easy answer for the tears you've cried And it makes me uneasy, makes me feel different Do you get scared when you close your eyes? Repeat Chorus @SONG: A Thing About You I'm not much on myster Yeah you gotta be careful what you dream I thought this might pass with time Yeah I thought I was satisfied Chorus But oh baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you Baby let me tell you, I got a thing about you It don't matter what you say It don't matter what you do I, I, I, got a thing about you Somewhere deep in the middle of the night Lovers hold each other tight Whisper in their anxious ears Words of love that disappear Repeat Chorus Baby you hold some strange control over me Yeah it's so wild it hypnotizes me Raise both arms and repeat chorus @SONG: Insider You've got a dangerous background And everything you've dreamed of Yeah you're the Dark Angel It don't show when you break up and I'm the one who oughta know Im the one left in the dust Yeah I'm the broken hearted fool Who was never quite enough Chorus I'm an insider, I been burned by the fire And I've had to live with some hard promises I've crawled through the briars -- I'm an insider It's a circle of deception It's a hall of strangers It's a cage without a key You can feel the danger And I'm the one who oughta know I'm the one you couldn't trust I'm the lonely silent one I'm the one left in the dust Repeat chorus I'll bet you're his masterpiece I'll bet you're his self-control Yeah you'll become his legacy His quiet world of white and gold And I'm the one who oughta know I'm the one you left to rust Not one of your twisted friends I'm the one you couldn't love Repeat chorus @SONG: The Criminal King You got a criminal mind You got criminal looks Boy you better look out You're gonna get hooked Don't you ever feel guilty When you come up short Man you better be careful You're gonna get caught Chorus 'Cause you're the criminal kind, you're the criminal kind Man what you gonna do? Where you gonna hide? They're callin' you a sickness, disease of the mind Man what you gonna do? You're the criminal kind Don't you ever get tired? Don't you ever want to quit? Yeah it's been a long time, and you still don't fit Dog tags on the mirror, hangin' down from a chain Give up little sister, this ain't gonna change Repeat chorus Yeah, and that little girl you used to know Just don't come around no more Now she ain't there to watch the door She don't wanna die in no liquor store I hope they all made money, I hope they all get rich Yeah, I hope they give hell, to every son-of-a-bitch That put a man on the carpet Or stuck him out on the line Whatever let him get a taste of the crminal life Reatp chorus @SONG: You Can Still Change Your Mind It's gonna be another hard night You wanna take it all alone You wanna face up to the trouble You wanna face up to your soul And baby you can have it anyway you want it You just get a little lost from time to time Sometimes it gets a little crazy somewhere down inside Chorus But you can still change your mind You can change your feelings Everybody wants all the world can give 'em Everybody wants to get all they can get Everybody's waiting on somethin' that hasn't come yet And you can hide it for a little while honey You can try and just lose it for a while Then its gonna do something to ya somewhere down inside Repeat 1st chorus Oh and it gets harder by the minute girl Oh it gets harder every day Listen to me darlin', on you don't have to wait Chorus I't alright, you can still change your mind Just hold tight, everything's gonna be alright If you can change your mind You can change your feeling
