Foreign skies.
That blinded me to empty charms.
I crossed the ocean and fell into your arms.
So sure, so wrong.
You sang me a simple tune,
I took it for a song.

Say goodbye, don't tell me why you have to go.
Loving you was as good as gold.
(as good as gold)
I'd love to love you, really love you
But you see,
There's something you should know.
I really didn't think you'd go.
Because today,
I could have sworn I heard you say :
I love you, I want you, I need to be with you.
Today, I saw something in your face.
Stay here beside me, I need your love to hide me.
You lied.
And now you've gone away.
And left me crying like a baby

(Like a baby)

Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker,
(Now there's nothing you can do).

Well I hadn't seen your face around town a while,
So I greeted you, with a knowing smile,
When I saw that girl upon your arm,
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm,
I said "Soul Boy, let's hit the town !"
I said "Soul Boy, what's with the frown ?"
But in return, all you could say was
"Hi George, meet my fiancee"

Young Guns,
Having some fun,
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free,
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, Two, take a look at you,
Death by matrimony!

Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker!
(Now there's nothing you can do)

A married man? You're out of your head,
Sleepless nights, on an H.P. bed
A Daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If your happy with a nappy then you're in for fun.
But you're here -
And you're there -
Well there's guys like you just everywhere,
Looking back on the good old days?
Well this young gun says CAUTION PAYS!

Young Guns,
Having some fun,
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free,
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, Two, take a look at you,
Death by matrimony!

I remember when we had such fun and everthing was fine,
I remember when we use to have a good time,
Partners in crime.
Tell me that's all in the past and I will gladly walk away,
Tell me that you're happy now, Turning my back -
Nothing to say!

"Hey tell this jerk to take a hike,
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like",
"Well sugar he don't mean the things he said",
"Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red,
We got plans to make, we got things to buy ,
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy",
"Hey shut up chick, that's a friend of mine,,
Just watch your mouth babe, you're out of line"

OoooooH!

GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!
GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!

Young Guns,
Having some fun,
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free,
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, Two, take a look at you,
Death by matrimony!

Like a warrior that fights
And win the battle
I know the taste of victory

Though I went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
Ans was crippled emotionally

Somehow I made it through the heartace
I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness, kept my faith
Kept my faith

Chorus :
And the river was deep I didn´t falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn´t stop me
I knew you were waiting for me

With and endless desire
I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet

And like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over
One touch and you set me free

I don´t regret a single moment
Looking back, when I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh, I just laugh

Chorus

So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be

Jimmy Got Nothing made himself a name
With a gun that he polished for a rainy day
A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie
Our boy Jimmy just blew them all away
He said it made him crazy
Twenty five years living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

Sweet little baby on a big wihite doorstep
She needs her mother but her mother is dead
Just another hooker that the lucky can forget
Just another hooker
It happens everyday
She loved her little baby
But she couldn't bear to see her living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

I believe in the gods of America
I believe in the land of the free
But no one told me
(No one told me)
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And from day to hopeless day
They still don't see me (See me)

Everybody talks about the new generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
"Like to help you buddy, but I haven't got the time"
Somebody shouted save me
But everybody started living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

There's a big white lady
On a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy said "yes"
Has to give a little for the dollars that we get
Has to give a little -
They say it's for the best
Somebody shouted
Maybe
But they kept on living from hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth

So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me
(Someone told me)
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself
One day
They just might see me...

Here comes one for the ladies,
For the ones who loved me
To think I thought I could be
Some kind of family man
I told myself I was straight
But I shouldn’t have worried
'Cause my maker had better plans for me!
And I’m dancing with the freaks now
I’m having, I’m having so much fun
And if what you sow is what you reap now
I’ll do my dance with every one
(I’ve been getting too much sun)
Yes I’m dancing with the freaks now
(too much heat)
We’re having, we’re having too much fun
For them
Look who’s talking guilty feet now

(Then let me tell you people)

Its an easier affair
Not living my life
With other people on my mind
No, I’ve got nothing to hide –
To hide from anyone

Yes I’m walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I’m gonna get what’s mine
See I don’t have the time
For the haters

And all the time that I wasted,
How careless of me,
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands
(when you gonna look for cupid man?)

Oh and I know that they want me to hate them
There’s no hurry, no no
I’ll just have to be the bigger man, you see

And I’m dancing with the freaks now
I’m having, I’m having so much fun
And if what you sow is what you reap now
I’ll do my dance with every one
(I’ve been getting too much sun)
If you turn the other cheek now
(too much heat)
Could there be, would there be too much fun
For them,
Look who’s talking guilty feet now

(And let me tell you people)

It’s an easier affair
Not living my life
For the people on my mind
No, I’ve got nothing to hide,
To hide from anyone

‘Cause I’m walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I’m gonna get what’s mine
See I don’t have the time
For the haters!

Don’t let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don’t let them tell you that its wrong and that you won’t find love
Don’t let them use my life to put your future down
Don’t let them tell you that happiness can’t be found

Sticks and stones won’t kill the boner that I have
For my life
Gonna take it to the streets
Fairy stories you can keep
They’re just passing me by

Don’t let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don’t let them tell you that its wrong or that you won’t find love
Don’t let them use my life to put your future down
Don’t let them tell you that happiness can’t be found

And I’m loving it
Every day of it
Every day’s just the way I want to live
And my heart is full
And I know for sure
Love will always win
