TIGER IN A SPOTLIGHT
Bass - playing in my face - grabbin' the elastic
Drums - listen here she comes - hammerin' the plastic
Keys - I play 'em all with ease - Freeze! Your shakin' at the knees
You're doin' somethin' drastic - chasin' the fantastic
To dine with tigers in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
Drums - listen here she comes - hammerin' the plastic
Keys - I play 'em all with ease - Freeze! Your shakin' at the knees
You're doin' somethin' drastic - chasin' the fantastic
To dine with tigers in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
Man - living in a can - skippin' with a suit-case
Frail - living in a gale - slipping on a blue face
Claws - are scratching at the doors - Pause: If you don't lose your oars
You're trippin' on a shoe lace - racin' to each new place
To screw your shadow in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
Sun - help me when I run - bleedin' from the moonlight
Nurse - help me with a verse - I need to sing the tune right
Days - I wasted in the maze - Raise your eyes above the ways
To keep a silver spoon bright - fly up to balloon height
To ride the spotlight in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?

WATCHING OVER YOU
Good night, good night
Look at that moon shine so bright
And tonight he smiles
Especially for you
Sleep tight, sleep tight
Know everything is alright
And tonight I will be here
Watching over you
For tonight I will be here watching over you
Tonight I'll be here watching over you
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
It is never as real as it seems
And in the morning when you wake up
I will be right here
Sleep on, sleep on
For no matter how dark or how long
It may seem that your night is
I will still be here
I will still be here watching, watching over you
So sleep, little darling, sleep on through
So be still, be still
For you know that I always will
Tonight and forever
Be watching over you
For tonight and forever, be watching over you
So sleep, little darling, sleep on through
I will be watching over you...

SO FAR TO FALL
I was Master Faster, I was Mr. Mystery
There wasn't a mortal man was gonna make a monkey out of me
I had reflex, action, first strike capability
So high - so tall - so far to fall
I took my time, my life was all without a cause
Till she came bursting through the frontdoor of my heart
Just like the signs that say I'll follow by a star
Once more, no blame, I'm far, no name
Too much, too soon, a touch of moon
A burst balloon, so far, so far to fall
Ooh, she had me, she had me running rings around the floor
She had me nailed to a door, she had me crying out
She had me crying out for more, more, more, more, more, more, more
She bad me, she tied me up in knots like a piece of a string
She did a thing to my thing, she did a thing to my thing
Like it's never been done before
Too much, too soon...
I saw stars in the night, I was hers, I was high
I had so far to fall, such a long way to fall
And I fell and I fell and I fell
So if you're Master Blaster or you're Mr. Mystery
Don't think you're insulated from love's electricity
There'll be no escape for you, there was no escape for me
So high - so tall - one night you're bound to fall.
I had reflex, action, first strike capability

I BELIEVE IN FATHER CHRISTMAS
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the Virgin birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas Tree smell
AND EYES full of tinsel and fire
They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked to the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise
I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
The Christmas we get we deserve.

SHOW ME THE WAY TO GO HOME
Show me the way to go home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it’s gone right to my head
Everywhere I roam
Over land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Said show me the way to go home
Show me the way to go home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it’s gone right to my head
Everywhere that I roam
Over land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Show me the way to go home
Show me, show me
Show me the road I leach home
Show me, show me
Show me the way to go home
Everywhere that I roam
Over land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Said show me, show me the way, to go home.
