LOUDNESS LYRICS

1. Down 'n Dirty

New kid in town
He likes getting 'round
Looking for new things to do
Oh, he likes to play
Most any game
And he wants to play with you

When he comes around
Oh, he takes it all the way
He's moving up and down
He gets right in you

Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty
Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty

Oh, he just might stay
If you wanna play
Like a cat, he's on the prowl
I know what I wanna do
What I wanna do to you
I'm gonna make it stick like glue

Moving in and out
In the alley or the street
Oh, I'll show you how
How to play me

Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty
Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty

Just like a pussycat in heat
You're always scratching at the post
Red light, green light, go

Slip inside, it's suicide
Take you for a ride
Meet Mr. Hyde
Gonna turn the tide for you
Slip inside, it's suicide
Take you for a ride
Meet Mr. Hyde
Gonna turn the tide for you

When he comes around
Oh, he takes it all the way
Moving up and down
He likes to get you

Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty
Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty
Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty
Down, down, down
Down 'n dirty

2. Playing Games

When I first saw her face
Thought she was the girl for me
Never knew, had no clue, now I found
Playing is the key

She's got you down on your knees and you know
You should get away from her
Could it be that you're losing control

Can't you see, she's just playing games
Her fantasy, she's just playing games

Now the tables have turned
And you're feeling like you should
Now I know, ooh I know, how it goes
But I never understood

She's a wolf in sheeps' clothing, you know
And it's time to make her play
All the games she's been playing with you

Can't you see, she's just playing games
Her fantasy, she's just playing games

You started something
Or maybe you tried
But you had it coming
And I got you under my thumb
Starting something
I'll settle the score
I'm owing nothing
I'm out the door

You've got her on her knees and you know
You've got one thing that she needs
Should it be that she's losing control

Can't you see, she's just playing games
Her fantasy, she's just playing games

3. Love Toys

Don't do it, cut through it
Keep your mind on the track
Or you know you're gonna screw it
Don't do it, get to it
There's a smile on her face
And you know that you can do it

After one, the playing's done
It's time to end the game
One more drink, you just might sink
Don't care about the name

Love toys
She's just another piece for the boys
Like an action set
Love toys, better roll the dice
Bad boys
Just playing a game

Don't do, hold to it
It's love on the rocks
One more shot is gonna do it
Don't do it, fight through it
It's that dog and a bone
Keep on trying, don't you lose it

After one, the playing's done
The time is getting near
One more drink, you just might sink
You just ain't thinking clear

Love toys
She's just another piece for the boys
Like an action set
Love toys, better roll the dice
Bad boys
Just playing

You hit the streets
You'll take what she's giving
Trashing the sheets
Now you're on your own

Don't do it, you blew it
Now the light's in her eyes
And you really want to lose it
Don't do it, you knew it
You could've bet the game would end like this

Night it comes, reloaded guns
You're ready for the same
A timely stare, you're almost there
The play begins again

Love toys
She's just another piece for the boys
Like an action set
Love toys, better roll the dice
Bad boys
Just playing Love toys
She's just another piece for the boys
Like an action set
Love toys, better roll the dice
Bad boys
Just playing

4. Never Again

Lost in a dream
In a dream of you
All that's left is a tear
That I cried for you

When you held me in your arms
You made me feel just like a child
Safe from all harm

Once in love, now it's gone
And I stand alone
There's a place in my heart
You still have a home

And I'm holding onto dreams
And the memories of you
Haunting my soul

Never again will I wake and see you smile
Never again will I hold you
Never again, no more planning for tomorrow
Never again tells a story

It seems so, so long ago
When you held me near
I can't take all the pain
It's so hard to bear

Still I'm holding onto dreams
And the memories of you
Haunting my soul

Never again will I wake and see you smile
Never again will I hold you
Never again, no more planning for tomorrow
Never again tells the story

Never again
Never again
Never again
Never again

5. Deadly Player

I've been to the edge of life
I've been through it all
All the people in my way
I loved to see them crawl

Pleading for mercy
I laughed and turned away
Begging me on their knees, to play

I'm the Deadly Player

My middle name is "Deadly"
And I'm looking for a dare
I'm hunting prey, most every day
A lion in his lair

I give no mercy
I'm tolerant to none
This game it's like a disease

You feel me coming
And I'm coming hard
It gets right in you
It'll have you spinning round and round

Now there's no turning back for me
No reason for regrets
Ooh, it's coming, coming down
Here it comes

You feel me coming
And I'm coming hard
I get right in you
Have you spinning round and round

Can't stop, I'm coming
Look out

I'm the Deadly Player
I'm the Deadly Player

Fighting to the edge of life
I must have seen it all
Deadly, dark and dangerous
Your back's against the wall

Giving no mercy
And taking the dare
Senses overwhelming
The hunter's set his snare

Push it to the limit
See how far you get
Push a little further
That's something you'll regret

Take a chance and try your luck
To see another day
Don't give a damn, don't give a fuck
For anything you say

6. Take It Or Leave It

You've been running around
Trying to keep me hungry
It doesn't mean a thing to me

Take it or leave it
Take it or leave it

What's this talk I'm hearing
You can't take the heat
If you ask me I'll just say

Take it or leave it

You don't like the way I'm up and down
You should know
If you can't understand
Then baby, maybe you should go

Will this ever end
Or is this just beginning
This shit has got to hit the fan

Take it or leave it

Don't you know you've gotta
Take the good with the bad
You should take the time
To realize what you had

Well if you don't like it
You can use the door
Find yourself another life

Take it or leave it

You've been running around
Trying to keep me hungry
It doesn't mean a thing to me

Take it or leave it
Take it or leave it

Take it

7. Girl

Come on, baby, give it to me
Magic lady, make me believe

You keep purring all night long
Keep it pushing all night long

Keep it tight
Till morning light

Come on mama, show me some tricks
Rock me, honey, you know the licks

Good girl, bad girl, all night long
Got me burning all night long

Do it right
Through the night

Keep it tight
Through the night

8. Long Distance

You say that time will tell
Everyday keeps getting harder
I know that I've been gone so long

Who'd believe I was missing you
Everything is getting to me
These lonely nights go on and on

Days are getting longer
Miles and miles between us
This feeling's getting stronger
Please believe me when I say no way

Long distance love, it ain't for me
This can't go on, oh, can't you see
We've been holding on too long

Long distance torture on the line
Far too much talking all the time
Let it go, our time is gone

Fighting, crying, almost dying
That's enough for me
Time for living, no more giving
Time to set me free

Long distance love, it ain't for me
This can't go on, oh, can't you see
We've been holding on too long

Long distance torture on the line
Far too much talking all the t
Let it go

Days are getting longer
Miles and miles between us
This feeling's getting stronger
Please believe me when I say no way

Long distance love, it ain't for me
This can't go on, oh, can't you see
We've been holding on too long

Long distance torture on the line
Far too much talking all the time
Let it go, our time is gone

Long distance love, it ain't for me
This can't go on, oh, can't you see
We've been holding on too long

9. In The Mirror

What's this in the mirror
Looking back at me
Reflections of a man
That I knew so long ago
Like a stranger in disguise
Could you be wrong
Thinking you knew me so well

Now you tell me, I'm no good
Take one long look in the mirror

I was once a man of dreams
That you destroyed
You took all I lived for
And you threw it all away
Now you're standing all alone
And no one cares
You should have known this before

You can't tell me I'm no good
Just look at yourself

Don't try to hide your face
Your past you can't erase
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall

Now the mirror's shattered
And it's clear to see
I'm still the man I was
Before you threw it all away
The mirror holds the past
And you can't break free
Now it is your turn to pay

Try and tell me I'm no good
Just look at yourself

Don't try to hide your face
Your past you can't erase
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall
Mirror on the wall

10. Sleepless Nights

I can feel the night is calling
Calling out to you
Tossing, turning, oh I'm learning
How to keep my mind off of you

Ooh, as the nights get longer
Time's standing still
It's the pain you're feeling deep inside
You need some love to pull you through
Pull you through the night now, baby

Can't take no more of these
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
They've got me losing my mind
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
They've got me losing my mind

All night the phone keeps ringing
I'm nowhere to be found
Your mind is racing and always chasing
You know I'm running around

Ooh, morning's getting closer and you wonder why
It's the pain you're feeling deep inside
You need someone to pull you through
Pull you through the night now, baby

Can't take no more of these
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
They've got me losing my mind
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
They've got me losing my mind

You have no clue to what I've been through
You tell me
I need to feel your love tonight, tonight
Give it to me right

I can feel the night is calling
Calling out to you
Tossing, turning, oh I'm learning
How to keep my mind off of you

Ooh, as the nights get longer
Time's standing still
It's the pain you're feeling deep inside
You need some love to pull you through
Pull you through the night now, baby

Can't take no more of these
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
You've got me losing my mind
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
You've got me losing my mind
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
You've got me losing my mind
Sleepless nights - driving me crazy
You've got me losing my mind

11. Find A Way

I see the world
Through different eyes than you
Time is the key
And my heart is locked and waiting

I'm coming home to hold you
I know it's hard to be alone, for so long

I'll find a way, ooh, someday
To get right back to you
Find the time, cross the line
Make all your dreams come---

When we're alone
Gonna make you feel alright
No more fears, no more tears
I'm gonna hold you, oh, so tight
Just close your eyes, start counting
And when they open I'll be home, right next to you

Just keep holding on
I'm always going to find a
Find a way to you

Just can't be too soon
You know I'm going to find a
Find a way to you

Eyes to the sky
It's of you I'm always dreaming
Cursing the ground
That keeps me from you

No time for dreaming
I'l find a way, I'll find a way
No time for praying
May be today, I'll find a way

Just can't be too soon
You know I'm going to find a
Find a way to you

I'll find a way
Ooh, someday
To get right back to you
Find the time, cross the line
Make all your dreams come true
I'll find a way
Ooh, someday
To get right back to you
Find the time, cross the line
Make all your dreams come true
