1. Gotta Have It All
I'm so tired but I can't go to bed
Memories of you, spinning around inside my head
They keep me up all night, waiting for the morning light
I can't go on like this, I'm a stranger to myself
Trapped in a corner, I can't hide anymore
I have to face the truth, it's never gonna be like it was before
I was wrong on you and you were wrong on me
I gotta keep on going, I've got to move on
Oh, my back's against the wall
Oh, I gotta have it all
I won't be another fool for your love, girl
You won't make me crawl
Oh, I gotta have it all
I've been fooling around much too long
There's nothing I can do anymore about the things that went so wrong
I have made mistakes, that God nobody's perfect
I learned a lesson, but you don't have to teach me another one
Trapped in a corner, I can't hide anymore
I have to face the truth, it's never gonna be like it was before
I was wrong on you and you were wrong on me
I gotta keep on going, I got to move on
Oh, my back's against the wall
Oh, I gotta have it all
I won't be another fool for your love, girl
You won't make me crawl
Oh, I gotta have it all
Trapped in a corner, I can't hide anymore
I have to face the truth, it's never gonna be like it was before
I was wrong on you and you were wrong on me
I gotta keep on going, I've got to move on
Oh, my back's against the wall
Oh, I gotta have it all
I won't be another fool for your love, girl
You won't make me crawl
Oh, I gotta have it all
Oh, my back's against the wall
Oh, I gotta have it all
I won't be another fool for your love, girl
You won't make me crawl
2. You're The Best (Money Can Buy)
Your sale is falling and you got to change it
You're a businessman, what will you do?
Why don't you take my advice, make up a story
Run it on page one, who cares it it's true?
You are the best, the best that money can buy
You're the best that money can buy
Moneytalk everyday, make a fortune; sell a lie
Take a well known person and make a scandal
Turn his good reputation into dust
Prostitutes and cocaine, a selling combination
"A Man Of Sin, with uncontrollable lust"
You are the best, the best that money can buy
You're the best that money can buy
Moneytalk everyday, make a fortune; sell a lie
Another lie, another story
They print it all to sell an extra copy
You are the best, the best that money can buy
You're the best that money can buy
Moneytalk everyday, make a fortune; sell a lie
You are the best, the best that money can buy
You're the best that money can buy
Moneytalk everyday, make a fortune; sell a lie
3. Walk On Fire
(now dig this)
I'm coming closer, and this time it's for real
Close your eyes now babe, and tell me what you feel
It must be love, it must be love
I'm going crazy, I can't get you out of my mind
Give me your hand now babe, seek and you will find
It must be love, it must be love
I wake up in the night to hear me calling out your name
I can't go on without your love or else I'll go insane
Else I'll go insane
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Yes, I would, babe
When I see you moving, I just can't believe it's true
Look behind your shoulder 'cos I'm coming after you
It must be love, it must be love
You can call me crazy, you can call me mad
But I can't get enough, I need your love so bad
It must be love, it must be love
I wake up in the night to hear me calling out your name
I can't go on without your love or else I'll go insane
Else I'll go insane
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Coming closer, and this time it's for real
Close your eyes now baby
And tell me what you feel
Must be love, must be love
I'll do anything for you
This is true, babe
I'm going, I'm going, I'm going crazy
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything, anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
Walk on fire, fire
I'll do anything for you
This is true, babe
Anything
4. Freedom
It's been love and hate, this life of mine
I've seen pleasure, I've seen pain
What was good and bad, I can't define
Still I'd do it all again
You need a heart of gold
To see what's right or wrong
When the rain feels cold
Keep searching for the blue sky
Don't tie me up anymore
Freedom, that's all I need
Don't ever try to put a chain on me
My freedom, I won't give in
I'll keep on searching till the end of the world
I have crossed the sea to find what I need
I've been waiting for so long
River deep and mountain high
What goes up must come down
You need a heart of gold
To see what's right or wrong
And when the rain feels cold
Keep searching for the blue sky
Don't tie me up anymore
Freedom, that's all I need
Don't ever try to put a chain on me
My freedom, I won't give in
I'll keep on searching till the end of the world
Freedom, that's all I need
Don't ever try to put a chain on me
My freedom, I won't give in
I'll keep on searching till the end of the world
All the friends I had, way back then
Grew up and settled down
Guess I'll never learn to compromise
Praise the Lord, I'm still unbound
Freedom
Don't ever try to put a chain on me
My freedom, I won't give in
I'll keep on, I'll keep on searching for
Freedom, I won't give in
Don't ever try to put a chain on me
My freedom, that's all I need
I'll keep on searching till the end of the world
5. Won't Let You Down
We grew up together in the low part of town
Life wasn't easy, but living was free
When times were rough there was no one around
On our own, just you and me
Oh, still we carry on
Oh, no matter what; we'll stick together
We're gonna make it, you and I
We're gonna go what it takes together
'Til the day that I die, forever
I would never let you down
We kept us alive, took each day at a time
Close to the edge, a life on the loose
The will to survive led us closer to crime
Captured in life, no chance to choose
Oh, still we carry on
Oh, no matter what; we'll stick together
We're gonna make it, you and I
We're gonna go what it takes together
'Til the day that I die, forever
I would never let you down
I remember they tried to steal our dreams away
Telling us we would never get anywhere
But we had our pride and we did it our way
A taste of life and we didn't care
Oh, still we carry on
Oh, no matter what; we'll stick together
We're gonna make it, you and I
We're gonna go what it takes together
'Til the day that I die, forever
I would never let you down
We're gonna make it, you and I
We're gonna go what it takes together
'Til the day that I die, forever
I would never let you down
Never let you down
Never let you down
Never let you down
6. The Whalesong
[Instrumental]
7. Larry
[Music: Eklundh, Lyrics: Eklundh]
My name is Larry and I'm thirty-two
I'm so unhappy, I don't know what to do
I am the son of a businessman
I was born to be a part of his plan
Brought up to carry the family crown
I do my best, but my lips are brown
Middle class, I just can't, just can't take it
Efficiency is the name of my crime
Kissing ass, I've gotta, gotta make it
Borrowed money, borrowed time
Live my life under a microscope
I have to work for the rest of my life
I've got a car and a house and an expensive wife
I only bought the car to brag about the price
But I can't afford it; only used it twice
Live my life under a microscope
Oh, I would do anything for success
My son is gay and my wife is on dope
Oh, all I do is becoming a mess
Haven't fulfilled my father's dream
And now he doesn't love me anymore
I think I need a primal scream
But I live next door to my mother-in-law
Live my life under a microscope
Oh, I would do anything for success
My son is gay and my wife is on dope
Oh, all I do is becoming a mess
Middle class, I just can't, just can't take it
Efficiency is the name of my crime
Plastic cash. I gotta, gotta fake it
Borrowed money, borrowed time
Live my life under a microscope
Oh, I would do anything for success
My son is gay and my wife is on dope
Oh, all I do is becoming a mess
You're working like a galleyslave
You got to have a microwave
To keep your living standard high
And your neighbours satisfy
And don't forget to cut your lawn
Otherwise you'll be hang by dawn
Middle class, middle class
The words are tattooed no your ass
8. Good Times Coming
Something is wrong, girl, but you won't tell me
It's so hard to make it right
You've been hurt before, scars so deep
You cry yourself to sleep at night
You say you're not my kind of woman
How can you tell?
Hold on, your heart can not lie
'Cos I know that
Good times, good times are coming
Just keep on going
You say we never gonna make it
I'll prove you're wrong
Good times, good times coming
Why don't you trust me?
You say we're never gonna make it
You just got to hold on, gonna make it right
When you are lonely, you can not learn
By trying to forget
You gotta give it one more shot, girl
What you see is what you get
You say you're not my kind of woman
How can you tell?
Hold on, your heart can not lie
'Cos I know that
Good times, good times are coming
Just keep on going
You say we never gonna make it
I'll prove you're wrong
Good times, good times coming
Why don't you trust me?
You say we're never gonna make it
You just got to hold on, gotta make it right
You say you're not my kind of woman
How can you tell?
Hold on, your heart can not lie
'Cos I know that
Good times, good times are coming
Just keep on going
You say we never gonna make it
I'll prove you're wrong
Good times, good times coming
Why don't you trust me?
You say we're never gonna make it
You just got to hold on, gotta make it right
Got to hold on
Got to hold on
9. One By One
I remember when I saw her for the first time
Little did I know
I used to sit in front of the TV-set
With a remote control and my video
A fantasy, you and me
She became so real on my TV-screen
I was hypnotized by her way to move
She was a dream come true, and a beauty-queen
You took your pride before your stardom
Now I know that I was wrong
One by One, you really made it
To the top, how does it feel?
One look can tell you what she's hiding
She denies, but she took 'em One by One
Somebody told me to stop dreaming
I was just a boy, so I didn't care
I bought the magazines, I read the interviews
About "Mother Earth's Pretties Millionaire"
Forever and ever
I would never give up, she was the one
But the rumours were true, she betrayed me
And her only excuse was "done is done"
You took your pride before your stardom
Now I know that I was wrong
One by One, you really made it
To the top, how does it feel?
One look can tell you what she's hiding
She denies, but she took 'em One by One
You took your pride before your stardom
Now I know that I was wrong
Now I know that I was wrong
A fantasy, you and me
She became so real on my TV-screen
I was hypnotized by her way to move
She was a dream come true, and a beauty-queen
You took your pride before your stardom
Now I know that I was wrong
One by One, you really made it
To the top, how does it feel?
One look can tell you what she's hiding
She denies, but she took 'em One by One
One by One
One by One
10. Surgeon In Love
She knows me and I know her
We've been colleagues for a while
I've been knocked out since the first time
That I saw her amazing style
Precision is her trademark
Every cut is so precise
She operates with passion
She's got hunger in her eyes
The way she cuts into a heart
It's so professional
It looks just like a way of art
And I'm in love
I was doing an autopsy
Nervous out in my fingertips
'Cos she sat there and observed me
With a big smile on her lips
"Go ahead and open him", she said
So I grabbed my scalpel
And started to cut into the dead
But there was nothing left
Angela
You stole my heart away
And then you stole my liver
I just can't take anymore
Angela
I won't survive another day
'Cos you make me shiver
And I can't find a cure
I'm a surgeon in love
She's a teaser and I know that
She's making a fool of me
But no matter if I try to ignore her
She's still a master of surgery
Just tell her what's your problem,
And she will solve it fast
So close your eyes and sleep now
And hopefully you'll last
She does her talking with her hands
And I would die to listen
So just relax, she understands
If you're scared to death
Angela
You stole my heart away
And then you stole my liver
I just can't take anymore
Angela
I won't survive another day
'Cos you make me shiver
And I can't find a cure
I'm a surgeon in love
I guess I failed but at least I tried
You can not buy her
She only cares of what's inside
But I won't give up
He won't give up
He won't give, he won't give up
He won't give up
He won't give, he won't give up
He won't give up
He won't give, he won't give up
Angela, Angela
You stole my heart away
And then you stole my liver
I just can't take anymore
Angela
I won't survive another day
'Cos you make me shiver
And I can't find a cure
I'm a surgeon in love
11. Wanna Be Your Lover
I've searched through day and nights
For someone just like you
I can't believe it's true, I'm standing here with you
My life has been a mess, but my luck has turned
Why don't I take some time and spend it with you
Oh, am I dreaming?
Yeah, I wanna be your lover
Hey Girl, don't you turn away, I've got something to say
You see I'm a man and you're a woman
Why don't you take my hand, I've got something for you
Take your time is not a crime, the name of the game is love
I wanna be your lover
I want you so, you set my soul on fire
Let's go undercover, I wanna be your lover
I'm excited
Hey Girl, turn around, look what I have found
A rose is perfect for a woman, yeah
You have the prettiest smile and face I've ever seen
Oh, you smell so good, oh, you make me wild
I wanna be your lover
I want you so, you set my soul on fire
Let's go undercover, I wanna be your lover
I'm excited
Don't turn your back on me, baby, can't you see
The way you move me feels so good
Let's spend the night together, and babe, I guarantee
I'll take you to a place you never been before
We got no time to waste, baby, hold me tight
Hey Babe, it feels so good, I'm getting on with you
May this feeling last forever
Oh, I want you to take my hane, and babe we'll fly away
We'll take a trip to Paradise, Baby, hold me tight
I wanna be your lover
I want you so, you set my soul on fire
Let's go undercover, I wanna be your lover
I'm excited
I wanna be your lover
I want you so, you set my soul on fire
Let's go undercover, I wanna be your lover
I'm excited
Excited
