[Verse 1]
They pulled in just behind the bridge
He lays her down, he frowns
"Gee, my life's a funny thing
Am I still too young "
He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything, but

[Chorus]
(All night)
She wants the young American
(Young American, young American)
(She wants the young American)
(All right)
She wants the young American

[Verse 2]
Scanning life through the picture window
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Ford Mustang
But Heaven forbid, she'll take anything
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing
He misses a step and cuts his hand, but
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries "Where have all Papa's heroes gone "

[Chorus]
(All night)
She wants the young American
(Young American, young American)
(She wants the young American)
(All right)
But she wants the young American

[Verse 3]
All the way from Washington
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more "

[Chorus]
All night
He wants the young American
(Young American, young American)
(He wants the young American)
(All right) All right
He wants the young American

[Bridge 1]
Do you remember, your President Nixon
Do you remember, the bills you have to pay
Or even yesterday

[Intro]
(Hey, it ain't over)

[Verse 1]
Me, I hope that I'm crazy
I feel you driving and you're only the wheel
Slow down, let someone love you
Ooh, I've never touched you since I started to feel
If there's nothing to hide me
Then you've never seen me hanging naked and wired

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody lied, I say it's hip
To be alive

[Chorus]
Now your smile is spreading thin
Seems you're trying not to lose
Since I'm not supposed to grin
All you've got to do is win
(Ooh, that's all you've got to do)
(Ooh, it ain't over)

[Verse 2]
Me, I'm fresh on your pages
Secret thinker sometimes listening aloud
Life lies dumb on its heroes
Wear your wound with honor, make someone proud

[Pre-Chorus]
Someone like you should not be allowed
To start any fires

[Chorus]
Now your smile is spreading thin
Seems you're trying not to lose
Since I'm not supposed to grin
All you've got to do is win
(Ooh, that's all you've got to do)
(Ooh) It ain't over

[Chorus]
Now your smile is spreading thin
Seems you're trying not to lose
Since I'm not supposed to grin
All you've got to do is win
(Ooh, that's all you've got to do)
(Ooh) All you got to do is win (it ain't over, no)

[Outro]
And your smile is spreading thin (Ooh, seek and believe in you)
It seems you're trying not to lose (Ooh, it ain't over, no, no)
Since I'm not supposed to grin (Ooh, that's all you got to do)
All you've got to do is win (Ooh, it ain't over, no)
(Ooh, seek and believe in you)
All you've got to do is win (Ooh, it ain't over, no, no)
Woo-hoo! (Ooh) All you've got (that's all you've got to do)
Is all you've got (Ooh, it ain't over)
It ain't over

[Intro]
Got to use her

[Verse 1]
Every time I feel fascination
I just can't stand still, I've got to use her
Every time I think of what you put me through, dear
Fascination moves, sweeping near me
Still, I take you

[Chorus]
(Fascination) Fascination

[Verse 2]
If your soul is calling like when I'm walking
Seems that everywhere I turn I hope you're waiting for me
I know that people think that I'm a little crazy
Ooh, pleasure seeks this thing, I think I like fascination
Still, I take you

[Chorus]
(Fascination) Fascination
(Sure enough) Fascination, ooh

(Fascination) Fascination
(Oh, yeah) Fascination
(Takes a part of me) Fascinate, fa—, oh, babe

Flying in just a sweet place
Coming inside and safe

[Verse 1]
He's everybody's token, on everybody's wall
Blessing all the papers, thanking one and all
Hugging all the babies, kissing all the ladies
Knowing all that you think about from writing on the wall

[Pre-Chorus]
He's so divine, his soul shines
Breaks the night, sleep tight
His ever loving face smiles on the whole human race
He says, "I'm somebody"

[Chorus]
He's got his eye on your soul
His hand on your heart
He says, "Don't hurry, baby
Somebody up there (Somebody) likes me"

[Verse 2]
He's the savage son of the TV tube, planets wrote the day was due
All the wisest men around predicted that a man was found
Who looked a lot like you and me, yeah, everyone with sense could see
Nothing left his eye unmoved, he had the plan, he had to use

[Pre-Chorus]
(Somebody) He's so divine (Ooh, ooh) His soul shines
(Somebody) Breaks the night, sleep tight (Somebody up there)
(Somebody) His ever loving face (Ooh, ooh)
Smiles on the whole human race
(Somebody, somebody, somebody up there)

[Chorus]
(Somebody) he's got his eye on your soul
(Ooh-ooh) and his hand on your heart
He says, "Don't hurry, baby
Somebody up there (somebody)

[Bridge]
Somebody plays my song in tune
Makes me, makes me, makes me stronger for you, babe
Was a way when we were young, that
Any man was judged by what he'd done, but
Now you've pick them on the screen (What they look like)
Where they've been

[Chorus]
Keep your eye on your soul
And your hand on your heart
He says, "Don't hurry, baby
Somebody up there (Somebody)

[Verse 3]
Leaders come, they hate all the people know
That given time, the leaders go
Tell me, can they hold you under their spell
Can they walk and hold you as well as a
Smile like Valentino? Could he sell you anything
(Somebody, somebody)
[Chorus]
Keep your eye on your soul
Keep your hand on your heart
(Don't hurry, baby) "Don't hurry, baby
Somebody up there (Somebody) likes me"

[Outro]
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
Somebody (Somebody) somebody (Somebody)
Somebody (Somebody, somebody)
Somebody (Somebody) somebody (Somebody)

Yeah, can't remember (Somebody) peace so well
Oh, space to ramble, (Somebody, somebody) space to boogie
His soul shines, he's so divine (Somebody, somebody)
He's somebody (Somebody, ooh)
Soul shines (Ooh-ooh), so divine
Somebody (Somebody, ooh)
Somebody, ooh
Somebody, somebody, somebody (Somebody, ooh)
Yeah, can't remember peace so well

[Verse 1]
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy
Are drifting through my opened mind
Possessing and caressing me

[Chorus]
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world

[Verse 2]
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like the restless wind inside a letterbox
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe

[Chorus]
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world

[Verse 3]
Sounds of laughter, shades of life
Are ringing through my open ears
Inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love, which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on and on across the universe

[Chorus]
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change my world

[Outro]
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing's going to
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing's going to
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Hey, nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change it
Nothing's going to change my world
Nothing going to change it
Nothing going to change it
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Nothing's going to change my world

[Verse 1]
Once we were lovers
Can they understand
Closer than others I was your
I was your man
Don't talk of heartaches
Ooh, I remember them all
And I'm checking you out one day
To see if I'm faking it all

[Chorus]
Can you hear me
Can you feel me inside
Show your love, love
Take it in right (Take it in right)
Take it in right (Take it in right)

[Verse 2]
There's been many others
So many times
Sixty new cities, and what do I
What do I find
I want love so badly
I want you most of all
You know, it's harder to take it from anyone
It's harder to fall
Can you hear me call you

[Chorus]
Can you (Hear me )
Can you (Feel me inside )
Show your (Love, love)
Take it in right (Take it in right)
Take it in right (Take it in right)

[Chorus]
Well, can you hear me? (Yeah)
Can you feel me inside? (I do)
Show your love
Show me your sweet, sweet love (Love, love)
Show me your love
Take it in right (Take it in right)
Take it in right, yeah (Take it in right)
Take it in right to your love life, baby

[Outro]
Take it in right to your love life
Take it in right
Take it in right, right to your love life
Take it in right
(Why don't you take it ) Ah, take it in, take it in right
(Why don't you take it ) Right down, right down
(Why don't you take it ) Mmm, why don't you take it
(Right to your heart) Well, can you hear me
(Why don't you take it ) Can you feel me
(Why don't you take it ) Can you take it in right
(Why don't you take it ) Ooh, right down, right down
(Right to your heart) Can you take it? Feel me
(Why don't you take it ) Down, to right down
(Why don't you take it ) Right to your heart
(Why don't you take it ) Ooh, right to your heart
(Right to your heart) Take it down, take it down
(Why don't you take it )

[Verse 1]
Fame (Fame) makes a man take things over
Fame (Fame) lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame (Fame) puts you there where things are hollow
Fame (Fame)

[Chorus]
Fame, not your brain, it's just the flame
That burns your change to keep you insane ('Sane)
Fame (Fame), hmm

To bind your time, it drives you to crime (Crime)

[Verse 3]
Is it any wonder I reject you first
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool
Fame (Fame)

[Chorus]
Fame, bully for you, chilly for me
Got to get a rain check on pain (Pain)

[Outro]
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
