This document contains lyrics from the albums Lonesome Crow (1972), Fly to the Rainbow (1974), and In Trance (1975) by the German rock band Scorpions. The lyrics cover themes of isolation, love, life, and rock and roll. They describe walking alone in the desert hearing church bells, being in a trance from partying, seeing rainbows and people in need, drifting suns and sailing ships, and living as a rock star getting older but still loving rock and roll.
1. LONESOME CROW (1972)
I'M GOING MAD
Music: Michael Schenker, Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Wolfgang Dziony, Lothar Heimberg
Walking through the desert
Hearing Nazi bells ringing from the church to farm
That was never there
Imagine I'm in heaven, but it is a hell
Sun is drying out my brain
Its smile and its collections are my pain
I'm going mad, I'm going mad
I'm going mad...
Walking through the desert
Hearing Nazi bells ringing from the church to farm
That was never there
That was never there
Sun is drying out my brain
Its smile and its collections are my pain
I'm going mad, I'm going mad
I'm going mad
Ow! Mad, oh, mad...

IN SEARCH OF THE PEACE OF MIND
Music: Michael Schenker, Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Wolfgang Dziony, Lothar Heimberg
When I'm alone I'm feeling blue
Dreaming a dream of a world that's lovely and true
Faintly the dream of a true and wonderful world
And no one will care as long as the world will turn
Faintly the dream of a true and wonderful world
And no one will care as long as the world will turn
And I know a place to go to find my peace of mind
And I know a place to find my peace of mind
And I'll try, and I'll try
And I'll try, oh, and I'll try
Oooh and I'll try, and I'll try

Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Wolfgang Dziony, Lothar Heimberg
Testament ever meant
Bloody money when it's lent
Scum reappear everywhere
They want money, ooooh
Heavenly would it be
Does the money belong to me?
I will pray, they will say:
"Give your money", ooooh
Obligator came and said to me:
"Why don't you pay your debt? The debt that you owe me"
Asking him for give up his demand
For I am without means despite inheritance
"Remittance of the debt I can't accept"
He told me and he kept quite tight on his demand

They want money, ooooh

Lyrics: Klaus Meine
You look at a poster, you look at the wall
The wall in the room where you live, where you live with your stars
Just listen his records, now hear what he says
For he says "I love you little girl, come to see me today"
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
You like Alice Cooper, you like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie and friends in the Royal Albert Hall
Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl, come to see me today
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart

You like David Bowie and friends in the Royal Albert Hall

THEY NEED A MILLION
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
I see a rainbow in the sky
So many colors and the light
I see the world and I see all the people
How they're running all the time
I see your shadow over me
Then in my ears I hear a symphony
I see the world and I see all the people
What they are doing, what they need
They need a million and a billion, and your money too
They need a million and a billion, and your money too
5. I feel fine 'cause I realize
That I don't need the million, they are all poor
I feel fine 'cause I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice
I feel fine 'cause I realize
That I don't need the million, they are all poor
I feel fine 'cause I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice
DRIFTING SUN
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Well, I'm sitting on a stone, sitting all alone
Day things are rolling down the mountain
Well, see the lonesome tramp who's living in the damp
Nobody's in the valley
Shine on
Shine on sun, oh it's so cold right here
Shine on
Shine on sun, shine on all night long
All night long
Daydreams are of silent blue
Icy wings will carry you
Well, midnight sun will never shine
Just ravings of a fool, you think and laugh about him all the time
Shine on
Shine on sun, oh it's so cold right here
Shine on
Shine on sun, shine on all night long
All night long, all night long, yeah
White pale velvet autumn sun just fades away
Forgotten life will finish now in endless gray
Some days like drifting haze, some days like glowing blaze
Some days like tides of life, some days like tides of life
White pale velvet autumn sun just fades away
Forgotten life will finish now in endless gray
Some days like drifting haze, some days like glowing blaze
Some days like tides of life, some days like tides of life
Yeah
Yeah
Staggerin' along a tropic highway
Crazy lights are whirling 'round and 'round
Hell or heaven, night or day
Burning fingers put the sun away
6. Shine on
Shine on sun, let it shine on all night long
Shine on
Shine on sun, let it shine on all night long
FLY PEOPLE FLY
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
And I see the tears in your eyes
The rain will fall tonight
And tonight we'll go to the sky
Because there we fly
All together
Fly to the sky, fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly
And I see the smile on your face
When you look into space
He's so bright and he is so great
Come on, aren't you late?
All together
Fly to the sky, fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly
See the rainbow in the sun
The man with a gun
In the world they have no fun
Hurry up people run
All together
Fly to the sky, fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly
All together
Fly to the sky, fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly
THIS IS MY SONG
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
I can't believe what the people say
There's only hate everywhere
So many people go different ways
So many things, don't you care?
They see nobody, they see themselves
7. On a stage like in a show
They see the hell and they need your help
They need your help, they need love, love
This is my song
I'll tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I'll tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I'll tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I'll tell you about the story of love
I think I need you, you need me too
The place where we live is here
The world is grave and what can I do
For you and you everywhere
I sing a song 'bout the world of love
And hope you hear what I say
Forever freedom, forever love
Forever love every day, day
FAR AWAY
Music: Rudolf Schenker, Michael Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
...Take your hand, and you take my hand, let's try to learn to fly
Hear what I say, hear what I say, dream and close your eyes
Too much hate, too much hate, so many things are wrong
So many ways, so many ways, flying through the sky forever to another time
Yesterday, so far away
Many miles together we're looking for a way
And day by day, so far away
All the world should do the same
So we go together
Will you show me the way?
Time is gone, it is gone far away, far away
And today I see a way
Follow me, we love you, just listen what I say
Forget your name and yesterday
Hold out your hand, I'll do the same
Now we're going to another land
Will you show me the way?
Time is gone, it is gone far away, far away...
FLY TO THE RAINBOW
Music: Michael Schenker
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
8. Life is empty, can't remember any time before
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore
Gliding through this life, and another as a child
Ever doing games and losing things, always playing gigs
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon, the stars shine bright
Where the sun is shining in the night
I am in disgrace, yet I see your smiling face
And I hope you let me share your place
I don't live today
Rain in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Rain in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Rain in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Well, I lived in magic solitude of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops
Roaming through space, two thousand years ago
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis
Sinking into eternal wave of darkness...
Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
A broken violin floating alone in December
Darkness everywhere and nothing more
Symbol, strange symbol, melancholy
Painting torrid colors on a sky of green
Candle breathing one night only
Far away, in chillness, bleak, unseen
Drifting galley, ghostlike shadow
Sails rigged to catch and kill the time
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
A thing... sublime
IN TRANCE (1975)
DARK LADY
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
9. Sitting alone in the doghouse
Thinking of you all the time (Sighing, crying)
Sitting alone in the doghouse
Thinking of you all the time (Sighing, crying)
Dark lady
Sitting alone by my window
Counting the stars of the night (Waiting, hating)
Sitting alone by my window
Counting the stars of the night (Waiting, hating)
Dark lady
Sitting and watching the sunrise
Darkness is filling my eyes (Sighing, crying)
Sitting and watching the sunrise
Darkness is filling my eyes (Sighing, crying)
Dark lady
IN TRANCE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
I wake up in the morning and the sun begins to shine
The day did sneak up on the night
I see your face and I see myself, and I get a little taste of life
I try to stand it for a while
But I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey yeah, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life
I feel so sad, I'm feeling down, on the radio the music plays
I'm in love with her and I feel fine
I close my eyes, I think today it's getting better with a sip of wine
And I can stand it for a while
Well, I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey hey, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life
I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey yeah, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life...
LIFE'S LIKE A RIVER
Music: Ulrich Roth, Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Corinna Fortman
10. As years are passing by, silence becomes your friend
You see the world in a different way
Don't be afraid of getting old, life's still full of joy
And the beauty of the past is rejoicing your mind
When days are getting short and winter comes along
Your life slows down and down
Like a river's getting wide, the words have lost their force
You remember your morning flow into the endless sea
When days are getting short and winter comes along
Your life slows down and down
Like a river's getting wide, the words have lost their force
You remember your morning flow into the endless sea
Life's like a river in the morning
Life's like a sea without end
Life's like a river in the morning, yeah
Life's like a sea without end
Life's like a river in the morning
Life's like a sea without end
Life's like a river in the morning
Life's like a sea without end
TOP OF THE BILL
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
You're a Rock and Roll star
You're out of the charts
Your glory's cold, you're getting old
But your life is Rock and Roll
That crazy Rock and Roll band
Is spinning in your head (In your head)
Each generation makes the stars
Reach the first one on the charts
And they are top of the bill
You're a Rock and Roll star
You've been the first one on the charts
You've had glory and fame
Rock and Roll was your game
And you were top of the bill
LIVING AND DYING
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
In the dirty old city there is my home
There's my home, there's my home, there is my home
11. Nothing really looks pretty and I've been alone
I've been alone, I've been alone, I've been alone
And in my heart many wishes are crying
Living and dying
And in my heart many wishes are crying
Living and dying
In the house of darkness there's a magic stone
Magic stone, magic stone, the magic stone
But I couldn't find it 'cause the shine is gone
Shine is gone, shine is gone, the shine is gone
And in my heart many wishes are crying
Living and dying
And in my heart many wishes are crying
Living and dying
Living and dying
Living and dying
ROBOT MAN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Grave communication
See me this is my life in the crazy robot man reservation
Do you feel the cold vibration?
'Cause I'm everywhere, produce a crazy science fiction creation
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
I lost my mind, I lost my life, I lost my soul
Babe, it's a magic station
Where we live, what we do with our magic robot man generation
I say babe, it's not a vision
It's reality, this is a robot scene what we live in
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
I lost my mind, I lost my life, I lost my soul
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man...
12. EVENING WIND
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
A summer day is gone, listen to the evening wind
Singing tunes of tamarind into the setting sun
You lie in twilight sleep, dreaming colors deep
Today all life is gone
Look at the golden chalice, plight, broken on the ground
Green fire blazing 'round, where are your friends?
You see all hope lying broken on the slope
Today all life is gone
Have you ever listened to the evening wind?
To the gentle breeze and its truth
Have a listen and you will see my friend
Wind is telling you the truth
SUN IN MY HAND
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Yeah, well I'd like to tell you something now
Before madness shows her lucid feathers in the sky
How can you lose your mind?
How can you waste your time only like that?
Look at the sun inside of my hand so bright
I call it music
And if you touch you'll see it comes from infinity
Just made forever
You will not touch in vain, music will make you sane
Will make you sane
Ow!
How can you lose your mind?
How can you waste your time only like that?
Look at the sun inside of my hand so bright
I call it music
LONGING FOR FIRE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Flying
With dark eyes, ever longing for fire
Crying
Black as night, the night wind brings me higher
In search of light
Escape the night one day, she's lost in time
To space so high
13. Time's passing by, and I, I'm on my way
In search of light
Escape the night one day, she's lost in time
To space so high
Time's passing by, and I, I'm on my way
NIGHT LIGHTS
Music: Ulrich Roth
VIRGIN KILLER (1976)
PICTURED LIFE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Ulrich Roth
Ooh, dark meditation
Your second sight can show my life in a crystal ball
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind behind the wall
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Ooh, dark meditation
Deep down inside a stream of light begins to flow
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind behind the wall
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Pictured life, pictured life
Pictured life from yesterday
Pictured life, pictured life
Pictured life from yesterday...
CATCH YOUR TRAIN
14. Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Wake up man, it's late but not too late
It's six o'clock like everyday
Get your things, run and forget the rain
Take powerpills, don't miss your train
And you'd like to be another, a different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life, check your way
And you like the Rock and Roller, a different life and Whiskey Cola
But don't be low, keep your own style, and catch your train
Don't be lazy man, and work off your ass
He's the boss, you've gotta do what he says, ooh yeah
Catch your train, run and forget those ways
Keep it cool, it's not too late
And you'd like to be another, a different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life, check your way
And you like the Rock and Roller, a different life and Whiskey Cola
But don't be low, keep your own style...
And catch your train
And you'd like to be another, a different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life, check your way
And you like the Rock and Roller, a different life and Whiskey Cola
But don't be low, keep your own style, and catch your train
And you'd like to be another, a different guy and a better lover
For your love, for your life, check your way
And you like the Rock and Roller, a different life and Whiskey Cola
But don't be low, keep your own style, and catch your train
IN YOUR PARK
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
In the night there is a gentle voice of silence
So low and quiet, she'll catch me 'cause I've been longing
I want to walk in your park 'cause I'm alone
I want to walk in your heart, where are you? I don't know
I look around and see the sunshine in the morning
(Shadows in the night like angels by your side in the alley)
On my journey I change the time, leave everything behind me
(Shadows in the night like angels by your side in the alley)
I want to walk in your park 'cause I'm alone
I want to walk in your heart, where are you? I don't know
I want to walk in your park 'cause I'm alone
I want to walk in your heart, where are you? I don't know
15. I want to walk in your park 'cause I'm alone
I want to walk in your heart, where are you? I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
Let me walk, let me walk in your heart
Let me walk, let me walk in your heart...
BACKSTAGE QUEEN
Music: Rudolf Schenker

Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna, I know
You wanted my love and I gave it to you
Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna, you know
Goodbye is hello, 'cause I'm on the road

Just keep me in your dreams
Take it easy, life goes on
My little backstage queen
Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna, so good
My feeling with you was all very true
Hey little Donna, sweet little Donna, you know
Goodbye is hello, 'cause I'm on the road

VIRGIN KILLER
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Cry like you feel, try like you feel, feel it
Try to escape, cry to escape, escape it
It's so hard to run away, he's a virgin killer
No, no, no, can't you see?
16. No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's, you're a demon's desire
Death on screen, sadistic magazines, watch out
Suicides everyday, political ways, get it
Well, you can't find new ways, but he's a virgin killer
No, no, no, can't you see?
No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's, you're a demon's desire
Garbage in the streams, A-bombs in your dreams, look out
Sharks in the pictures, exorcist prescriptions, forget it
Try to get away from that 'cause he's a virgin killer
No, no, no, can't you see?
No, no, no, can't you see?
You're a demon's, you're a demon's, you're a demon's desire
HELL-CAT
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Fire in her eyes (Burn)
Perfume of the skies
Fingers cold as ice (Freeze)
Devil in disguise
Well, she's a, she's a
Well, she's a, she's a
You know that she's a hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat
You know that guy with piccadilly-eyes was talking to the French boy, but didn't realize
Banana-long-boat-eating catching all the beat and he tried to get a wife, but he couldn't stay alive
Well, you know that lad with the rubber-dad paints his fingers yellow, blue, and red
And you also know that she's the liar, knowing only her desire
Fire in her eyes (Burn)
Perfume of the skies
Fingers cold as ice (Freeze)
Devil in disguise
Well, she's a, she's a
Well, she's a, she's a
You know that she's a hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat
She's gonna scratch up your mind
You know that guy with piccadilly-eyes was talking to the French boy, but didn't realize
Banana-long-boat-eating catching all the beat and he tried to get a wife, but he couldn't stay alive
You know that lad with the rubber-dad paints his fingers yellow, blue, and red
Well, you also know that she's the liar, knowing only her desire
CRYING DAYS
Music: Rudolf Schenker
17. Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Force yourself to use your brain, the only way to gain
A lot of things are just a lie
This world we love comes down in pain with hate and bloody games
A question-mark up in the sky, oh no
Look, you can't keep away and you can't hide
Tomorrow, yesterday, today...
Some people say "We'll do it better"
Some people say "Everything's good"
Some people sing "Let's come together"
But nobody has ever brought it through
Some people say "We'll do it better"
Some people say "Everything's good"
Some people sing "Let's come together"
But nobody has ever brought it through
Maybe you and me, maybe you and me
You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me...
POLAR NIGHTS
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Down, down, that's bringing me down
The stars in the sky seem to fall to the ground
Time, time, I'm changing the time
The stars in the sky seem to be turning 'round
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind, mind
Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
Round, round, my mind's whirling round
The moons in the sky seem to burn on the ground
Gone, gone, my nightmares are gone
The moons in the sky seem to eat up the sun
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind, mind
Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
Back from polar nights...
I was down, I was out
The nights at the pole've been so cold without you
I was down, I was out
The pole-star was bringing me back home to you
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind, mind
18. Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
YELLOW RAVEN
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
The yellow raven sipped the air of thunder and of rain
The yellow raven sipped the air, gentle eyes kissing the rain
Where do you go fantastic dreambird?
Take me away to somewhere, take me away from here
Where do you go fantastic dreambird?
Answer to my yearning, take me away from here
The firebird began to cry and the music died away
The firebird began to cry and smoke was slowly drifting by
Where do you go fantastic dreambird?
Take me away to somewhere, take me away from here
Where do you go fantastic dreambird?
Answer to my yearning, take me away from here
TAKEN BY FORCE (1977)

Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Monika Danneman
I'm in love with the sunshine, I'm in love with the falling rain
Everything seems to call your name
Yesterday you were leavin', leavin' life and all the pain
Everything wants you back again, wants you back again, wants you back again
I've found myself through you and there was love in my life
I felt always naturally high
And my love had a home, but now my mind has started to roam
You're my life-giving fire and you carry all my love
Through you I was so inspired, you're engraved deep in my heart, heart, heart, heart
My dreams recall us being one, I've searched for you to be free
My force of life you have always been
I feel blue since you've gone, your breath of love surrounded me
When can I rejoin you to be free, rejoin you to be free, rejoin you to be free
Wait, can this be a dream, there is a voice in my head
It belongs to you, it says
Don't cry, no need to be sad, there's a way to stay with you again
It's more than you ever had, and no death brings us apart
Our timeless love always grows because you are my other heart
I know we've never been apart, your love sets fire to my heart
We'll burn the sky when it's time for me to die
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah
When it's time, time, time, we'll burn the sky
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah
I'VE GOT TO BE FREE
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
You're burning my heart, you're burning my mind
You're spoiling my art, you're wasting my time
No taste in your actions, no taste in your life
No truth nor direction, no true love of mine
You say you wanna be a superstar
Don't give a damn how to get that far
You say you wanna ride a diamond car
20. But I don't like your fat cigar
Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see
I'm not your stepping stone
Hey hey hey, I've got to be free
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
You're in love with success, you're spilling my wine
Don't follow my tracks, babe, your ways aren't mine
You make all this money, you're wasting my life
I'm not your Bugs Bunny, and you're not my wife
You say you only do it for our best
But you don't want to see what I detest
You think me crack-brained, I'm gonna leave your show
But you can't see what I see, so let me go
Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see
I'm not your stepping stone
Hey hey hey, I've got to be free
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see
I'm not your stepping stone
Hey hey hey, I've got to be free
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
Hey hey hey, don't you wanna see
I'm not your stepping stone
Hey hey hey, I've got to be free
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
So leave my life alone
THE RIOT OF YOUR TIME
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
The only king of Rock has gone, gone to heaven
A star on the way to the stars
Another king of Rock is born in seventy-seven
Just born to be there when it starts
Ninety-four, ninety-five, if the world is still alive
Will be the start for the riot of your time
Here's a ticket for a burning train
To set the world in flames, to play the hero game (The riot of your time)
Here's a ticket for the future days
21. You'll be the X-Rock king, the new electric face (The riot of your time)
A new generation's mind, the riot of your time
He's got the message to be more, a new desire
A storm full of life wild and young
The X-Rock nineteen-ninety-four electric fire
Will burn up the time like the sun
Ninety-four, ninety-five, if the world is still alive
Will be the start for the riot of your time
Here's a ticket for a burning train
To set the world in flames, to play the hero game (The riot of your time)
Here's a ticket for the future days
You'll be the X-Rock king, the new electric face (The riot of your time)
A new generation's mind, the riot of your time
THE SAILS OF CHARON
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Dark night, there is no light in the realm of the black magic man
Soul's flight into the cold blight of the destroyer's magic land
Poor man, whose spirits are stronger
There the ones who will reign, your struggles are in vain
Blind man, you're sucking your own blood
Soon black magic's dying, you'd better start crying
Blind man, you're sucking your own blood
Soon black magic's dying, you'd better start crying
Burn out your evil desire
The dark angel's kingdom is built out of mire
Burn out your evil desire
The dark angel's kingdom is built out of mire
Keep out for the kingdom of light
There is no darkness, there is no night
YOUR LIGHT
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
When you're feeling lost and blue
When there is no love for you
You'll find him and it's all right
It's all right, it's all right
When you're feeling down and low
When you've got no place to go
And when no one smiles hello
He's by your side, you know
When you're getting deaf and blind
22. When you draw one leg behind
And when you're finally gonna lose your mind, it's all right
It's all right, it's all right
'Cause he is by your side
'Cause he will be your guide
'Cause he will be your light
And you're not alone, you're not alone
You're not alone, you're not alone
HE'S A WOMAN, SHE'S A MAN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
I saw it walkin' lonely down the street
Cool like a cat, like a crazy dream
I looked twice again, I can't believe (Oh no no no)
It turned around and then it looked at me
I thought "Oh no, it really couldn't be"
It was a man and was a woman too (Oooh)
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a...
I think it really came from far away
I'm feeling hypnotized, I have to stay
It takes my hand and says "Come on, let's go" (Let's go, let's go, let's go)
We're goin' home, there's nothing more to say
He starts to move, she starts to play
I need a body, why not you? (Oooh)
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a woman
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a... Woman
BORN TO TOUCH YOUR FEELINGS
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
I was born from the sound of the strings
For someone to give everything
To be a song just for your feeling
Close your eyes and I'll try to get in
To waken your heart like the spring
'Cause I was born to touch your feelings
Steal the time, take the song and be glad
Be free as the birds, don't be sad
Your time will come, I'll make you feel it
You're still young like the sun after rain
Follow the light, it's not in vain
And you will see I'll touch your feelings...
23. You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright
You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright
You were born just to lose or to win
To be someone's child in the wind
To live between your mind and feelings
Find your way, check it out, learn each day
Follow the light, it's not in vain
And you will see I'll touch your feelings...
You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright
You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright
You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright
You've got your songs, they are everyday
For a while, just the only way to feel alright…

PICTURED LIFE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Ulrich Roth
Ok, the next song we're gonna do is from our album "Virgin Killer"
"Pictured life"
Ooh, dark meditation
Your second sight can show the life in a crystal ball
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind behind the wall
To the rock through walls of red dreams
To the rock to find the cream
To the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
To the rock to find the cream
To the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Ooh, dark meditation
Deep down inside a stream of light begins to flow
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind behind the wall
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
To the rock to find the cream
To the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
To the rock to find the cream
To the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Pictured life, pictured life
Pictured life from yesterday, yeah
Into the rock

POLAR NIGHTS
Music: Ulrich Roth
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Thank you
Down, down, that's bringing me down
The stars in the sky seem to fall to the ground
Time, time, I'm changing the time
The stars in the sky seem to be turning 'round
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind
Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
Round, round, my mind's whirling round
The moons in the sky seem to burn on the ground
Time, time, I'm changing the time
The moons in the sky seem to eat up the sun
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind
Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
Back from polar nights...
I was down, I was out
The nights at the pole've been so cold without you
I was down, I was out
The pole-star was bringing me back home to you
Is that the wind in your eyes that is soothing my mind
26. Is that the night of your eyes that is soothing my mind
IN TRANCE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
The next song we're gonna do is called "In trance"
I wake up in the morning and the sun begins to shine
The day did sneak up on the night
I see your face and I see myself, and I get a little taste of life
I try to stand it for a while
But I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey yeah, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life
I feel so sad, I'm feeling down, on the radio the music plays
I'm in love with her and I feel fine
I close my eyes, I think today it's getting better with a sip of wine
And I can stand it for a while
Well, I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey hey, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life
I'm in a trance, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey yeah, hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance, I wanna try to stop this life...
I'm in a trance, whoa yeah yeah
WE'LL BURN THE SKY
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Monika Danneman
This song's from our new album "Taken By Force"
"We'll burn the sky"
I'm in love with the sunshine, I'm in love with the falling rain
Everything seems to call your name
Yesterday you were leavin', leavin' life and all the pain
Everything wants you back again, wants you back again, wants you back again
I've found myself through you and there was love in my life
I felt always naturally high
And my love had a home, but now my mind has started to roam
You're my life-giving fire and you carry all my love
Through you I was so inspired, you're engraved deep in my heart
My dreams recall us being one, I've searched for you to be free
27. My force of life you have always been
I feel blue since you've gone, your breath of love surrounded me
When can I rejoin you to be free, rejoin you to be free, rejoin you to be free
Wait, can this be a dream, there is a voice in my head
It belongs to you, it says
Don't cry, no need to be sad, there's a way to stay with you again
It's more than you ever had, and no death brings us apart
Our timeless love always grows because you are my other heart
I know we've never been apart, your love sets fire to my heart
We'll burn the sky when it's time for me to die
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah
When it's time, time, time, we'll burn the sky
We'll burn the sky, oh yeah

Ah, you turn me on
I've been the biggest fan of yours
Uh huh, and something more
So much more baby

IN SEARCH OF THE PEACE OF MIND
Music: Michael Schenker, Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Wolfgang Dziony, Lothar Heimberg
"In search of the peace of mind"
When I'm alone I'm feeling blue
Dreaming a dream of a world that's lovely and true
Faintly the dream of a true and wonderful world
And no one will care as long as the world will turn, oh yeah
When I'm alone I'm feeling blue
Dreaming a dream of a world that's lovely and true
Faintly the dream of a true and wonderful world
And no one will care as long as the world will turn
Will turn, will turn
Will turn, will turn
Will turn...
FLY TO THE RAINBOW
Music: Michael Schenker
Lyrics: Ulrich Roth
Thank you
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
"Fly to the rainbow"
Rain in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Rain in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
I lived in magic solitude of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops
Roaming through space, two thousand years ago
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis...
Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
A violin floating alone in December
Darkness everywhere and nothing more
Symbol, strange symbol, melancholy
29. Painting torrid colors on a sky of green
Echoes down an endless meadow
Bleak, unseen
Drifting galley, ghostlike shadow
Sails rigged to catch and kill the time
Echoes down an endless meadow
Search for a thing... sublime
HE'S A WOMAN, SHE'S A MAN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
I saw it walkin' lonely down the street
Cool like a cat, like a crazy dream
I looked twice again, I can't believe
It turned around and then it looked at me
I thought "Oh no, it really couldn't be"
It was a man and was a woman too
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a...
I think it really came from far away
I'm feeling hypnotized, I have to stay
It takes my hand and says "Come on, let's go"
We're goin' home, there's nothing more to say
He starts to move, she starts to play
I need a body, why not you?
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a woman
He is a woman, she is a man
He is a woman, she is a... Woman

Music: Rudolf Schenker

The wall in the room where you live, where you live with your stars
Just listen his records, now hear what he says
For he says "I love you little girl, come to see me today"
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
You like Alice Cooper, you like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie and friends in the Royal Albert Hall
30. Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl, come to see me today

Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart
Speedy's coming, you live in his heart

Grave communication
See me this is my life in the crazy robot man reservation
Do you feel the cold vibration?
'Cause I'm everywhere, produce a crazy science fiction creation
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man

It's reality, this is a robot scene what we live in
And I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a loser
I say ooh, ooh, I'm a robot man
I lost my mind, I lost my life, my soul

ANOTHER PIECE OF MEAT
Music: Rudolf Schenker, Herman Rarebell
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
Met her down at that Tokyo place
Loved her pretty face
I said "Hey, you're alright, so alright"
I was sitting in her car
She told me "You're a star, and I know you", yeah
She said "Take me home
I need love so strong
Come on and knock me out, knock me out
I've been too long alone
I want hot love, you know, and I need it now"
She said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
35. She said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Next day she took me out
To a rough kick boxing show
Violence really turned her on, oh no
She was screaming for more blood
Loved it more than any drug, I couldn't stand it
I said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Said "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
ALWAYS SOMEWHERE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Arrive at seven, the place feels good
No time to call you today
Encores till eleven, then Chinese food
Back to the hotel again
I call your number, the line ain't free
I like to tell you come to me
A night without you seems like a lost dream
Love, I can't tell you how I feel
Always somewhere, miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again
Always somewhere, miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again
Another morning, another place
The only day off is far away
But every city has seen me in the end
And brings me to you again
Always somewhere, miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again
Always somewhere, miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again

CAN'T GET ENOUGH
Music: Rudolf Schenker
36. Lyrics: Klaus Meine
That's the stuff that turns me on
More than gold and money
I need sounds loud and rough
Like the bee, the honey, my love
I can't get enough
Move your legs, stamp your feet
The language of your body
Is right now all I need
To understand you're ready for love
Are you ready for love?
I can't get enough
Burning lips, the taste of life
High energy, hot feelings
Heavy sounds to feel alright
And Rock and Roll for Speed Kings, my love
Rock and Roll for Speed Kings
I can't get enough
I can't get enough
We can't get enough
I can't get enough
We can't, we can't, we can't, we can't get enough, yeah
I can't get enough
We can't get enough...
IS THERE ANYBODY THERE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
Open my mind, let me find new vibrations
Tell me the way I must take to reach my destination
And a place where I can stay
Where is the love of my life, couldn't find her
Show me the way to find back to myself 'cause I'm nowhere
In the darkness of these days
Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart
I find myself in a state of confusion
Life's like a pantomime trick or a laser illusion
Where's a place that I can stay
Save me, don't let me get lost in the ocean
I need your help everyday to control my emotions
In the darkness of these days
37. Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart
Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart
LOVEDRIVE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
A girl to drive, a car to love
The music rocks me down the motorway
My whore's got wings, we're taking off
And I can't stop this flight of speed today, yeah yeah
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
You drive me crazy, babe
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
You drive me crazy, babe
The city lights of London town
Are far away, my hand is on her wing, on her wing
I stop the car and she gets down
I like to show why Scorpions got a sting, oh yeah
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy, babe
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy, babe, yeah yeah
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
You drive me crazy, babe
It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive, just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy, babe
You drive me crazy, babe
You drive me crazy, babe
You drive me crazy, babe
Ooooh yeah, you drive me crazy, baby
It's a lovedrive, yeah yeah
38. HOLIDAY
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday
Exchange the cold days for the sun, a good time and fun
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday
Exchange your troubles for some love, wherever you are
Let me take you far away, you'd like a holiday...
Longing for the sun, you will come to the island without name
Longing for the sun, be welcome on the island many miles away from home
Be welcome on the island without name
Longing for the sun, you will come to the island many miles away from home
Away from home
Away from home
Away from home

MAKE IT REAL
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
You can always trust your inner feelings 'cause they always tell the truth
Where did it get you, then you're analyzing, just do what feels right for you
If you take life as a crazy gamble, throw your dice, take your chance
You will see it from the different angle, and you too can join the dance
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy ooh yeah
Did you ever have a secret yearning, don't you know it could come true
Now's the time to set wheels turning to open up your life for you
As you know there's always good and evil, make your choice, don't be blind
Open up your mind and don't be trivial, there's a whole new world to find
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy ooh yeah
Did you ever have a secret yearning, don't you know it could come true
Now's the time to set wheels turning to open up your life for you
If you take life as a crazy gamble, throw your dice, take your chance
You will see if from a different angle, and you too will join the dance
Make it real not fantasy
39. Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy ooh yeah
DON'T MAKE NO PROMISES (YOUR BODY CAN'T KEEP)
Music: Matthias Jabs
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
Ooh, I saw this girl walking down the street
I thought "Oh yeah, she looks rather neat"
I grabbed my chance and played my usual game
Ooh, I tell you man, it can be a strain
She didn't wanna know what I'd got to say
Just shook her head and looked the other way
And then she said "I've met your type before
For me you're all the same, you're such a bore"
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Next day, can you believe, she was at the show
She said "Hey man, you're great", and she took me home
She started to undress, what a shock to see
Padded bra, blonde wig, not much left for me
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep
Oh no, don't make no promises
Oh no, your body can't keep...
HOLD ME TIGHT
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
Ooh, she's the one
That's what I thought when our love had just begun
But times have changed
And I'd better go because it's gonna be too late
40. And all my love will turn to hate
Ooh, you've always known
That music is my life and I live just for Rock and Roll
Ah, no one can make me change my mind
'Cause I just want to live my life
Alright, don't want me to stay
Alright, have it your way
Alright, I'm leaving tonight
Alright, woman, I'll get out of your sight
I'll get out of your sight, honey
Ooh, you're still the one
But you've shown me how independent you've become
Don't tell me you need
You need me to be your ever-faithful strong lovin' man
Ooh, don't tell me I'm wrong
I gotta go my way, and you'll see where I belong, honey
Ah, you live your life and I live mine
I bet you will turn out fine
Alright, don't want me to stay
Alright, have it your way
Alright, I'm leaving tonight
Alright, woman I'll get out of your sight
Alright, don't want me to stay
Alright, have it your way
Alright, I'm leaving tonight
Alright, woman, I'll get out of your sight
Don't want me to stay
Alright, have it your way
Alright, I'm leaving tonight
Alright, woman, I'll get out of your sight...
TWENTIETH CENTURY MAN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
In the jungle of these times
Honest love's so hard to find
In the world of video, computers tell you what to do
The world's devoted to the dollar sign
Remote-controlled and on the line
Plug in man on the rack, waiting for a heart attack
Ooh, and no chance to die
No more space for love
The world gets really tough
Can't you see the end
Twentieth Century Man?
41. In the jungle of these times
There's nothing left for them to buy
They look for God on the screen, they've got even dream-machines
Ooh, they are mesmerized
No more space for love
The world gets really tough
Can't you see the end
Twentieth Century Man?
No more space for love
The world gets really tough
Can't you see the end
Twentieth Century Man?
No more space for love
The world gets really tough
Can't you see the end
Twentieth Century Man?
LADY STARLIGHT
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Walking through a winter night, counting the stars and passing time
I dream about the summer days, love in the sun and lonely bays
I see the stars, they're miles and miles away like our love
On one of these lonely winter nights
Dreaming through a winter night, memories of you are passing by
It seems to me like yesterday, I think you knew I couldn't stay
I see the stars, they're miles and miles away like our love
Lady starlight, help me to find my love
Lady starlight, help me tonight, help me to find my love
Walking through a winter night, counting the stars and passing time
Snow dances with the wind, I wish I could be with you again
I see the stars, they're miles and miles away like our love
Lady starlight, help me to find my love
Lady starlight, help me tonight, help me to find my love
Lady starlight, help me tonight, help me to find my love
Lady starlight, help me tonight, help me to find my love
FALLING IN LOVE
Music: Herman Rarebell
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
I look in your eyes, I really think you're fooling me
You're pretty and nice, it doesn't matter, don't you see
I'm falling in love, it happens to me every day
I'm falling in love, love just seems to slip away
42. Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Don't tell me your lies, I don't believe a word you say
You do realize, I move around from day to day
I'm falling in love, it happens to me every day
I'm falling in love, love just seems to slip away
I'm falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, yeah
Falling in love...
I'm falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love, ooh, ooh
Falling in love
ONLY A MAN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
Well you know it is hard being a long time apart
But it's you that I love, don't you see
And when I go away, you say, please stay okay
I want you to stay only with me
Well you know it is hard, all these girls are so smart
And they see me all over the place
Well they phone me at night, ask me out for a bite
I can see all the lust in their face
All these chicks really know that next day I will go
And they never will see me again
So when I am back home and we both are alone
I can feel all your love and your pain
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Now you know how I feel, nothing is real
Well it's hard to say no when you've done a good show
And they all want you to celebrate
Well I try to refuse, try to make some excuse
But at this point it's mostly too late
Yeah, I start feeling good and I get in the mood
I guess you'll know what I mean
All these chicks all around, it's so hard to keep count
It's like a schizophrenic dream
43. Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Now you know how I feel, nothing is real
Well you know it is hard being a long time apart
But it's you that I love, don't you see
And when I go away, you say, please stay okay
I want you to stay only with me
Well you know it is hard, all these girls are so smart
And they see me all over the place
Well they phone me at night, ask me out for a bite
I can see all the lust in their face
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Now you know how I feel, nothing is real
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Woman, I'm only a man
Do the best that I can as you know
Now you know how I feel, nothing is real
THE ZOO
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
The job is done and I go out, another boring day
I leave it all behind me now, so many worlds away
I meet my girl, she's dressed to kill, and all we're gonna do
Is walk around to catch the thrill on streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time, make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by on streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time, make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by on streets we call the zoo
Enjoy the zoo and walk down Forty-Second Street
You wanna be excited too and you will feel the heat
We eat the night, we drink the time, make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by on streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time, make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by on streets we call the zoo

BLACKOUT (1982)
BLACKOUT
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell, Sonja Kittelsen
I realize I missed a day, but I'm too wrecked to care anyway
I look around and see this face, what the hell have I lost my taste
Don't want to find out
Just want to cut out
My head explodes, my ears ring, I can't remember just where I've been
The last thing that I recall, I got lost in a deep black hole
Don't want to find out
Just want to cut out
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
I grab my things and make a run on my way out, another one
Would like to know before I stop, did I make it or did I flop?
Don't want to find out
45. Just want to get out, yeah
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I really had a blackout, baby
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, blackout, blackout...
CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
One, two, one, two
One, two, three, four!
You stand in front of the band with all those scarves in your hands
I see you play imaginary guitars
You people shaking your heads right till the end of the set
You really turn me on wherever we are
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Put your hands in the air so I can see you are there
I wanna see all your lights shining on
Want you to stand up and dance, gonna leave you no chance
To take a breath between each single song
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you
Stand up and shout
We're ready to rock, we're ready to roll
Stand up and shout
Are you ready, are you ready, come on and get it!
Stand up and shout
We're ready to rock, we're ready to roll
Stand up and shout
Are you ready, are you ready, come on and get it!
Can't live, can't live without you
46. Can't live, can't live without you
Can't live, can't live without you

NO ONE LIKE YOU
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Girl, it's been a long time that we've been apart
Much too long for a man who needs love
I miss you since I've been away
Babe, it wasn't easy to leave you alone
It's getting harder each time that I go
If I had the choice, I would stay
There's no one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
Girl, there are really no words strong enough
To describe all my longing for love
I don't want my feelings restrained
Ooh babe, I just need you like never before
Just imagine you'd come through this door
You'd take all my sorrow away
There's no one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you, I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do, I just wanna be loved by you
YOU GIVE ME ALL I NEED
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
New love is blind, why don't you see?
You hurt me inside, you're killing me
It makes me sad all the time
To see you around with all these guys
My heart's in pain, I need you so
My love's the same, so please don't go
47. You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
Let's try again, there's still romance
We'll start a new life, take a chance
There are so many ways
Please don't forget it anyday
My heart's in pain, I need you so
My love's the same, so please don't go
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need

Like it played loud, powerhouse sounds
My body wants to rock and let it out
Really high born, morning till dawn
I'm going all the way just on and on
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now!
Teach me to fly, wanna stay high

Nightlife and booze, girls to choose

Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now!
Come on, baby
Getting out of control

Nothing I'll leave out tonight
I'm feeling good, I'm living now!

I'm running down the line to the top
Never stay low, I'm on the go
No one holds me back from my show
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild

It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now! Now!

ARIZONA
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
49. Arizona really was a gas
I was screwed up in a total mess
Mindblowing all the way, you know, just out of sight
Some girl stopped me in the street at night
Ooh, what a knockout and she felt so right
Ooh, yeah, she took my breath away, just out of sight
Loved her in her car, took me to the stars
Babe, we went nuts all the way
Loved her on the moon, morning came too soon
She got me high and loose, loose, loose
Arizona really feels alright
Girls swing here and they treat you right
Have so many special ways, you know, and that's alright
Was so hard to leave and say goodbye
I'd like to stay and have another try
Mindblowing all the way, you know, just out of sight
Loved her in her car, took me to the stars
Babe, we went nuts all the way
Loved her on the moon, morning came too soon
She got me high and loose, loose, loose
Loved her in her car, took me to the stars
Babe, we went nuts all the way
Loved her on the moon, morning came too soon
She got me high and loose, loose, loose
Ooh, what a night
Yeah, such a good time
Out of sight
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, what a night
Ooh, what a night
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, what a night...
CHINA WHITE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Sometimes it seems the good times never will return
A lot has changed, babe, 'cause evil rules the world
You said you're looking for a place where there's no hate
Ooh babe, it really makes no sense to escape
How long will it take to make the world a flaming star?
How long will it take till they stop their senseless wars?
How long will it take till everybody will understand
That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again?
The only future we've got exists right now
Let's take the time, babe, as long as the world is turning 'round
50. How long will it take to make the earth a fireball?
How long will it take till no more life exists at all?
How long will it take till everybody will understand
That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again?
It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind
It's up to you, the more love you give, the more you'll find
The more love you give, the more you'll find
It's up to you to fight the evil in your mind
It's up to you, the more love you give, the more you'll find
The more love you give, the more you'll find
Don't make the world a flaming star
Stop, stop all these senseless wars
How long will it take till everybody will understand
That we need, that we need to fill our hearts with love again?
WHEN THE SMOKE IS GOING DOWN
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Just when you make your way back home
I find some time to be alone
I go to see the place once more
Just like a thousand nights before
I climb the stage again this night
'Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
This is the place where I belong
I really love to turn you on
I've got your sound still in my ears
While your traces disappear
I climb the stage again this night
'Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
I climb the stage again this night
'Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down
LOVE AT FIRST STING (1984)
BAD BOYS RUNNING WILD
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
Out in the streets
The dogs are on the run, the cats are all in heat
51. Out in the streets
Snakes are all around you, dirty rats are on their way
They control you and they'll make you play
Out in the night
Glaring eyes in darkness, tigers wanna fight
Out in the night
Spiders all around you, spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Out in the streets
The dogs are on the run, the cats are all in heat
Out in the night
Spiders all around you, spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way, way, way, way
Get out of their way
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way, way, way
Get out of their way
ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring and scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin
The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come, new places to go
I've got to leave, it's time for a show
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning, it starts to shout
Desire is coming, it breaks out loud
Lust is in cages till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it with someone I choose
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
52. He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (Are you ready, baby?)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (Come on, come on, baby)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Rock you like a hurricane...
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring and scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (Are you ready, baby?)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am

COMING HOME
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Every morning when I wake up yawning I'm still far away
Trucks still rolling through the early morning to the place we play
Boy you're home, you're dreaming, don't you know the tour's still far away
Boy you're home, you're dreaming, don't you know you're having just a break
Dream we're going out on stage, it feels like coming home again
Dream we're going out on stage, it feels like coming home again
Dream we're going out on stage, it feels like...
Year after year, out on the road
It's great to be here to see you all
I know for me it is like coming home
Day after day, out on the road
There's no place too far that we wouldn't go
We go wherever you like to Rock and Roll
Jump on the seats, put your hands in the air
Give me a shout, let me hear you're out there
The wilder you scream for some more Rock and Roll
The higher we'll go
Year after year, out on the road
It's great to be here to rock you all
I know for me it is like coming home
Coming home
I know for me it is like coming home
Coming home
Like coming home, coming home
Like coming home, coming home
Like coming home, coming home
Like coming home, coming home...
THE SAME THRILL
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
54. I remember when my teacher said "How you wanna make your life?"
I said "I can play guitar and it will be alright, listen"
When I came out of school, they said "Which way you wanna go?"
But there was no way strong enough compared with Rock and Roll
To get the same thrill
To get the same thrill
To get the same thrill
To get the same thrill
Anyhow I've found a job, they tried to break me with their rules
But they had no chance at all 'cause I knew what to do
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
I had a feeling
They couldn't buy
Still got that feeling
They still can't buy, they still can't buy, they still can't buy
Tell me the alternative to what I'm doing, but I guess
There's no other way of life which is strong like this
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
To get the same thrill (Like Rock and Roll)
(Like Rock and Roll)
(Like Rock and Roll)...
BIG CITY NIGHTS
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
When the daylight is falling down into the night
And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to catch an outrageous thrill
But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune which never stand still
55. Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
And the long night has left me back at somebody's side
It feels alright for a long sweet minute like hours before
But it's more like looking out for something I can't find anymore
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights, always yearning
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
There is no dream that you can't make true if you're looking for love
But there's no girl who's burning the ice away from my heart
Maybe tonight!
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights, always yearning
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights, always yearning
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights, always yearning
Big city, big city nights, you keep me burning
Big city, big city nights...
AS SOON AS THE GOOD TIMES ROLL
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
If you feel real sad sometimes, caught in bad vibrations
And it seems you've lost your drive and your destination
If you feel that life's passing by, passing by
Catch the train of better times, rock tonight
Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
If you feel that all your life is packed with complications
And almost everything you try ends up in new frustrations
If you feel that life's passing by, passing by
Catch the train of better times, rock tonight
Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
On your life, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Life, on your life
Life, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Life, on your life
On your life
Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
56. Hard times go as soon as the good times roll
On your life, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Life, on your life
Life, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Life, on your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life
On your life...
CROSSFIRE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
It seems to me a nightmare becomes reality
The last days of the paradise are gone for you and me
We're living in the crossfire, and we'll be killed at first
Why cannot people that we made the leaders of the world
(Understand) That we don't wanna fight
(Understand) We are much too young to die
(Understand) No one will survive
(Understand) That we love our life
Can I trust the meaning of the life line in my hand
Which is as long as exciting hundred years, I could be a lucky man
But I'm living in the crossfire of a time that starts to burn
Why cannot people that we made the leaders of the world
(Understand) That we don't wanna fight
(Understand) We are much too young to die
(Understand) No one will survive
(Understand) That we love our life
(Understand) That we don't wanna fight
(Understand) We are much too young to die
(Understand) No one will survive
(Understand) That we love our life
(Understand)
(Understand) That we don't wanna fight
(Understand) We are much too young to die
(Understand) No one will survive
(Understand) We love our life
(Understand)
(Understand) We love our life
(Understand)
(Understand) We love our life
57. (Understand)
(Understand) We love our life
(Understand)
(Understand)...
STILL LOVING YOU
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
Time, it needs time to win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love can bring back your love someday
I will be there, I will be there
Fight, babe, I'll fight to win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love can break down the wall someday
I will be there, I will be there
If we'd go again all the way from the start
I would try to change the things that killed our love
Your pride has built a wall so strong that I can't get through
Is there really no chance to start once again?
I'm loving you...
Try, baby, try to trust in my love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, our love just shouldn't be thrown away
I will be there, I will be there
If we'd go again all the way from the start
I would try to change the things that killed our love
Your pride has built a wall so strong that I can't get through
Is there really no chance to start once again?
If we'd go again all the way from the start
I would try to change the things that killed our love
Yes, I've hurt your pride, and I know what you've been through
You should give me a chance, this can't be the end
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you, I need your love
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you baby, ooh
I'm still loving you, I need your love
I'm still loving you, I need your love, ooh
I'm still loving you, I need your love, ooh
I need your love
I need your love...

BLACKOUT
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell, Sonja Kittelsen
I realize I missed a day, but I'm too wrecked to care anyway
I look around and see this face, what the hell have I lost my taste
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out
My head explodes, my ears ring, I can't remember just where I've been
The last thing that I recall, I got lost in a deep black hole
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out, yeah
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
I grab my things and make a run on my way out, another one
Would like to know before I stop, did I make it or did I flop?
59. Don't want to find out
Just want to get out, yeah
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Yeah, yeah, I really had a blackout, baby
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out, yeah
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, I really had a blackout
Blackout, blackout, blackout, blackout...
Hello San Diego!
It's good to see you all here tonight
BAD BOYS RUNNING WILD
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
Alright, we'll do a song from our new album "Love At Sting", called "Bad boys running wild"
Out in the streets
The dogs are on the run, the cats are all in heat
Out in the streets
Snakes are all around you, dirty rats are on their way
They control you and they'll make you play
Out in the night
Glaring eyes in darkness, tigers wanna fight
Out in the night
Spiders all around you, spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Out in the streets
The dogs are on the run, the cats are all in heat
Out in the night
Spiders all around you, spinning webs and make you pray
Tie you up and you can't get away
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way, way, way, way
Get out of their way
60. Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way
Bad boys running wild, if you don't play along with their games
Bad boys running wild, and you better get out of their way, way, way
Get out of their way

MAKE IT REAL
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Herman Rarebell
You can always trust your inner feelings 'cause they always tell the truth
Where did it get you, then you're analyzing, just do what feels right for you
If you take life as a crazy gamble, throw your dice, take your chance
You will see it from the different angle, and you too can join the dance
61. Make it real not fantasy
Fantasy
Make it real not fantasy, yeah
Fantasy
Did you ever have a secret yearning, don't you know it could come true
Now the time to set wheels turning, open up your life for you

Make it real not fantasy

ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell
It's a Rock and Roll hurricane
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring and scratches my skin
64. So what is wrong with another sin
The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come, new places to go
I've got to leave, it's time for a show
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning, it starts to shout
Desire is coming, it breaks out loud
Lust is in cages till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it with someone I choose
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
California, here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Rock you like a hurricane...
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring and scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
California, here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane, are you out there?
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU
Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine
You having a good time out there?
Do you have a good time out there?
Alright, here's "Can't live without you"
And I want you out there to count it down with me, alright?
Hey, you know what I'm saying, I want you to count it out loud
One two, one two...
What do you think this is? You can do better!
Alright, alright watch out
