2 - Smart Alex

Im Jack, Jack the lad
Im a nasty habit

3 - Troubadour
I wonder all over
I wonder alone
Adventure, romance
Many I've known

I'm just a troubadour
I'm in love with you
Traveled the world
Seen all the girls
I'm in love with me

I know that you know that
I'm looking at you
I'll sing you a story
And this one is true
I look at you
Look at me not a big star
Boys and girl
That's what we are

You know that I love you
You know that I do
Whatever happens
You know I love you

4 - Tokyo
There's a lot of sexy ladies
Millions who have babies
All that I've been looking for
Is one that's free

Got to go to Tokyo

It must be in their cooking
Or the way they bow to me
I find Japanese ladies irresistible
Take me on a fast train
Take me on a jet plane
Take me in a wizards chest
Just take me there

5 - California
California sun
Shining through the window
Beating up and down
Like a yellow yo-yo
It's just the sun

Annie's got a gun
She knows how to use it
Points it at the sun
It's a California shoot out
She's got a gun

California Sunset
Orange skies by day
California dreaming
The California way
S.... another stranger
Lying by the pool
Dying to be near you
O' we look so cool
Yes we do

6 - Crazy
It would be good
If we could get out tonight
It would be great if we could make
Something happen
We could run a race
Or stand our ground
We could find a place to hang around

But no one's mad enough no
No one's bad enough no
No one's crazy anymore

It would be wild
If we could find a lonely car
It would seem strange
If we could change the regular
We could drive all night
On full headlights
We could speed until the day was bright

7 - Bad Boy
My mama told me off
She said 'd done her wrong
She said 'd been a bad bad boy
She said I make her sad
She said I drive her mad
and now she's takin' all my toys

O-o I've been a bad bad boy
O-o I've been bad

And now she keeps me in
I'm paying for my sin
The door is locked I can't go out
I have apologized O how I've really tried
Not to be a bad boy

You try to help me out
But all we do is shout
Why should we act this way
M love for you is strong
But I keep doing wrong
I'll always be that bad bad boy

8 - Jelly Baby
You don't like the food
That mummy made
You wouldn't join in
The games we played
Why do you have to be
Such a party pooper
You wouldn't even dance
To Alice Cooper

So small and sweet
So lovely and soft
Come sit with me
I won't bite your head off
I know your name
Sugar and spice
They call you candy
And all things nice

9 - Maybe Or Maybe Not
- Instrumental -

10 - Rocking Wrecker

Late at night hear the call
Of the danger to us all
In the dark he hangs around
In the dark he'll drag you down

Rocking wrecker Rocking man
Rocking wrecker he's wrecking man

Man the lifeboat don't go under
Hear him laugh hear the thunder
You can cry you can weep
He wants to send you to the deep

Wrecking rocker Wrecking man
Wrecking rocker he's wrecking man

End the storm can you save
Your body from a watery grave
On the rocks he hangs around
He just wants to watch you drown

11 - Runaway
I hear people talk
I see people walk
They seem so out of touch
I wanna get away so much
All the clockwork toys
Are making too much noise
It's the machinery
It's breaking down O' can't you see

Run runaway with me

The picture doesn't change
It's just a frozen frame
I wanna break the ice
I wanna go to paradise
There is nowhere to hide
I'll take you for a ride
But not if you kiss and tell
I don't mean on a carousel
One day I'm
To say my
Three wishes come true
Till then I pretend I'm
Escaping with you

12 - You're All Fools
When I go strolling through the crowd
I hear them laughing oh so loud
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! they're laughing
My feelings sometimes better me
Those things I sometimes have to hear
Whoa-ooh-oh whoa-ooh whoa-ooh
I'll cry then!

You're all fools
Can't you see, times are changing
You're so cruel
I know one day you will change, too

I can't get served in cafes or bars
My customs not as good as yours
Hey come on! why don't you serve me!

Sometimes I get so depressed
'cause I don't want to look
Like the rest of you
Woo woo hoo

You're all fools
Can't you see, times are changing
You're so cruel
I know one day, you will change, too

When I go strolling through the crowd
I hear them laughing oh so loud
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! they're laughing
My feelings sometimes bother me
Those things I sometimes have to hear
Whoa-ooh whoa-ooh whoa-ooh
I'll cry then!

You're all fools
Can't you see, times are changing
You're so cruel
I know one day you will change, too

You're gonna change

You're all fools
Can't you see, times are changing
You're so cruel, so cruel so cruel
I know one day you will change, too

You're all fools, you're all fools
Can't you see, times are changing, times are changing
You're so cruel, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel
I know one day you will change, too, I know you'll change
(till ends)
