Get Up and Go

Workin' up a fever in a one horse town
Was a jockey by the name of Joe
He didn't have a lot of what you might call luck
But he had a lot of get up n' go

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Tall in the saddle in a one-horse town
Joe, he knew someday he'd hit the road
He traded with a dealer for a pick-up truck
And went lookin' for a medium load

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Ow!
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home
Everybody's waitin' for ya

Cruisin' down the highway doin' sixty-five
In the middle of the double white line
One foot on the gas and his head in the clouds
He didn't see the one-way sign

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Ow!
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home
They're all waitin' for ya

Get up and go
Get up and go
Get up and go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Get up n' go
Get up n' go
Get up n' go back home

Oooooo!

Give It Up

I hated my first cigarette
I ask you how dumb can you get
I thought I was so nonchalant
But now it's the last thing I want

I'm chewing my nails
I'm having all kinds of withdrawral symptoms
If only I'd never begun
Why wasn't I told when I was young

Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Easier said than done
Give it up, Give it up
Kickin' a habit ain't fun

I thought I was smart
I thought I was king of the castle, crazy!
If only I'd never begun
Why wasn't I told when I was young

Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up

Got to give it up
Set my body free
Got to give it up
Because this stuff is killing me
Killing me

I'm finding it hard
This habit I'm kicking is struggling back
The stupidest thing I've ever done
Why wasn't I told when I was young

Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Easier said than done
Give it up, Give it up
Kickin' a habit ain't fun

Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Give it up, Give it up
Easier said than done
Give it up, Give it up
Kickin' a habit ain't fun

I hated my first cigarette
I ask you how dumb can you get
I thought I was so nonchalant
But now it's the last thing I want

God Is Love

I stepped into a bar for a drink or two
I was feeling lonely, and as the feeling grew,
I ordered same again, until I heard nature call
and through a door marked Men
I found written on the wall;
GOD IS LOVE
Next to a naked lady and some parts of a man was written,
GOD IS LOVE

The message seemed so simple
I stared in disbelief,
Could it be some wisdom
had come to my relief?
Was the Son of God a man among men?
Or which of the apostles had owned a ball point pen?
Oh, GOD IS LOVE
GOD IS LOVE
Like the joke that says the future of mankind is in your hand,
GOD IS LOVE

Love is never easy.
Love is hard to find.
And just as hard to keep
As an open mind.
So somehow I felt sorry
For that unknown patron saint
Whose words would soon be martyred
By a fresh coat of paint

GOD IS LOVE
GOD IS LOVE
In a temple or a toilet,
in a bed or in a bar,
GOD IS LOVE.

GOD IS LOVE.
GOD IS LOVE.
GOD IS LOVE.
GOD IS LOVE.

God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
God is Love (GOD IS LOVE!)
OH oh God is (LOVE!)
Love!

A million miles from the old routine A midnight candle burned I believe in believing I'm deeply concerned Walking down the runway Through the pouring rain Stretching out my arms like A supersonic pla-y-yane Godfrey Daniel He ain't done nothing wrong Let him go back to Ohio Or wherever he belong If all the trees were candles And who's to say they're not The world would be a birthday cake And we could eat the lot But too many cooks can spoil the broth And a stitch in time saves nine A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush And I'll never change my mind Godfrey Daniel He ain't done nothing wrong Let him go back to Ohio Or wherever he belong A tightrope walker has a balanced mind As well as arms and legs But why do chickens cross the road Not to mention layin' eggs I guess I'll never know Or truly understand Anyhow its not just doorknobs That come off in your hand Godfrey Daniel He ain't done nothing wrong Let him go back to Ohio Or wherever he belong Godfrey Daniel He ain't done nothing wrong Let him go back to Ohio Or wherever he belong.

Godzilla's Return

Blue reptile sleeping in cottonwool clouds
Trample the cities and trample the crowds
Red mammals wriggle in cosmetic mud
People who smell of the smoke and the blood
From the throats of the cities that burn
We are awaiting Godzilla's return

Disciples of horror, behold the messiah
The velvet arena, the hands that perspire
The eyes in the darkness that twinkle and shine
The image of love is doing just fine
Oh how they're willing to learn
We are awaiting Godzilla's return

* Here comes a man with a lung-punished look
Taking down names in a little black book
He spends his weekends digging holes in the ground
While his children decide to go up or go down
And they think they have nothing to fear
Nobody knows that Godziller is here

** Such is the scene as the story unfolds
Down by the railroad our hero beholds
The girl of his dreams in the arms of a cad
Who's modus vivendi is thoroughly bad
Quelle dommage a mais il va sans dire
Donner und blizten, Godzilla ist here
