Bad Blood
She knows a guy can't resist her
Lost from the moment they kissed her true
Ain't nothin' we can do
Town full of Chinese whispers
Say, I got one bad little sister
I know, the girls outta control
Something is wrong, I swear
You're really strange
I tried to be strong
But I guess you'll never change
You got bad blood runnin' in your veins
You bring bad luck on the family name
I know, the devil is in your soul
You got bad blood in that poison mind
Too much bad love
Under a very bad sign
Sister, would it change things if you knew
All this bad blood runs in this brother too
Lips like a blessed virgin
Tongue like the eden serpent
Lie like no woman ever lied
How long can a good thing last
All night till the evil has passed
Oh no let the good times rock n' roll
You got bad blood runnin' in your veins
You bring bad luck on the family name
I know, the devil is in your soul
You got bad blood in that poison mind
Too much bad love under a very bad sign
It's true, there ain't no tamin' you
You got bad blood and you won't listen

Ball And Chain
Oh I'm man enough, To rescue any agent, face reality
I'm alive for now, a prisoner of devotion,so throw away the key
I wear those chains like precious jewels
'Cause I'm man enough to offer no resistance, be detained by you
No one should be alone in the dark
Lay down your arms, call off the body guard
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I'm never gonna run away
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I never will be free again
Are you strong enough to take someone who loves you, the way its meant to be
With no strings attached, willingly surrender, unconditionally
With no regrets, no final flee
Are you strong enough, to finish my conviction, what's the verdict gonna be
Virtue is hung out to dry, it's upto you mcause that's my alibi
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I'm never gonna run away
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I never will be free again
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I'm never gonna run away
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I never will be free again
No one should be alone in the dark
Lay down your arms, call off the body guard
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I'm never gonna run away
Don't need no ball and chain, Listen baby
I never will be free again...

Secrets
Parr
There's a girl on the roof
Like a bird on a wire
It's a moment of truth
In a lifetime of liars
There's a voie in her head
Friving her crazy
She moves close to the edge
And says no one can save me
Then she sees him
His cigarette glows in the dark
Chrous:
Tell me your secrets
I'll tell you mine
Your heart's been broken
So many times
Tell me your secrets
Confess your crime
Who yu deceivin'
Don't leave it sleeping
Tell me our secrets
There's a crowd in the street
And some freak with a video
Every heart skips a beat
And it looks like she's letting go
But a hand reaches out
And catches her tightly...
And he saves her
He wipes tears from her eyes
(Chorus)
He gets up and walks away
He never looks back
Just fades away
She's safe now
Tell me your secrets...

Makin' Love To Your Answer Machine
Call me, the lady said call me
She left the number, written on the wall
A hundred times I've called it
Noon and night and morinin'
It's ringin' off the wall
Call me, you say anytime call me
Leave a little message
Just wanna hear your sweet voice
Everytime I dial it
Your damn machine keeps whinnin'
On and on, leave a meassage at the tone
She ain't in, she's not home
But I swear, I bet you're not alone

We All Make Mistakes
If you ever change your mind
Don't look back, give it another try
Back across the great divide
One small step, would keep the dream alive
But don't write me a letter
Don't give me a call
Don't tell me we've got no future left at all
If you ever change your mind,
Don't hold back, don't swim against the tide
Down these rivers we have cried
No more tears, they are no a part of you and I
So don't write me a letter
Don't promise you'll call
Don't say that we'll never make it after all
If you ever change your mind
You might find
We all make mistakes sometime
You and I, we never got the breaks
I always felt we had the strength to see it through
All those values that we held on to
Darlin' I still believe
I believe in you
If you ever change your mind
Don't hold back
Trust in the one you left behind
Give that school another try
You and I, we could get it right this time
So just drop me a letter,
Just walk through that door
Just show you were only human after all
Did you ever change your mind
You might find
We all make mistakes sometimes...

Time
She's got time on her hands
She's got time in her car
She's got time on her locker
And on her VCR
She's running right on time
Not a second too late
Yeah she's her mother's daughter
She taught her time won't wait
She's in the prime of her life
But time ain't enough
'Cus while her clock keeps tickin'
There ain't no time for love
Time keeps tickin', the clock keeps tickin'
Time keeps tickin', the clock keeps tickin'
Time time tickin', the clock keeps tickin'
Time keeps tickin', the clock keeps tickin'
Sometimes I think the world's gone crazy
Sometimes I think we've all gone mad
There's only one way we can change it
We've got to beat the clock
We've got to break this hour glass
By dawns first light
She's on the road again
She's got the candle burning
From both ends
She burns twice as bright
But only half as long
And before she knows it
All her time is gone

Hours, Minutes And Sex
She, wets my appetitie,
She, with that dress so tight
She, got that attitude
She, knows what I like to do
Bump and grinin'
Any way she wants it
Do the wild thing
Time to get down,
Start the countdown
Force the clockround
Chorus:
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex
I got the power
I can go the distance, no sweat
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex
Shes got legs,
Seven storeys high
Stretch with no panty line
Hips like an hour glass
I'm hooked on a heart shaped ass
Lady Madonna
Time to get down,
Start the countdown
Force the clockround

Every second, every minute
Take it to the limit, no rest
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex
Bump and grindin'
Make the bed sing
Do the wild thing
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex
I got the power
I can go the distance, no sweat
Every second, every minute
Take it to the limit, no rest
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex
Give me twenty four hours
Lovin' every minute and sex...

4 Letter Word
Daddy please help me understand
'Cause I think it's startin' to get out of hand, lately
I thought these hormones were under control
Now they all want to be with me body and soul
Chorus:
I thought that love was a four letter word
Till you came into my room last night
I thought that love was stictly for the birds
But I let you in without a fight
I had my eyes words wide open
But I guess that love is blind
Three little words were spoken
And I just can not believe that I
Said a four letter word
Tell me, tell me it isn't true
I must have been dreamin',
'Cause I'm so in love with you, baby
I had these hormones trained in retreat
Then the moment I see you
My heart skips a beat
(Chorus)
My golden rules been broken
Guess I never say, say never say never again
I've found a new emotion
And its runnin' I can recommend
No I don't understand,
Just one touch of your hand
I'm yours, oh yeah

Family Tree
You walk in the room and the walls cave in
Dazed and confused, then the pain kicks in
All you give is all you get,
No good looking for some sympathy
No delusions, no regrets
You can pick your friends,
Can't choose your enemies
We all need some good relations
That's they way that it's meant to be
Lead us not into temptation
Gotta keep it in the family
Falling from my family tree
'Cause that's the way it's meant to be
All we need is communication
Gotta keep it in the family
Falling from my family tree
Birth of the blues, is the day it begins
Kick off your shoes, as the tide comes in
We all get the chance to choose,
All you need is a little strategy
No good screamin' at the moon
You can't lay the blame, lay the blame
On your destiny
We all need some good relations
That's they way that it's meant to be
Lead us not into temptation
Gotta keep it in the family
Falling from my family tree
All we need is communication
That's the way, that's the way
Lead us not into temptation
Gotta keep it in the family
Falling from my family tree

It Ain't The Size Of The Boat
Chorus:
It ain't the size of the boat
Its the motion in the ocean
Don't need the tallest ship
To cross the widest sea
It ain't the size of the boat
Its the lovin' and devotion
Somebody listen, Somebody please
Hey honey please don't tease
Cause what you see, is what you get
So dive in the water, get soaking wet
In the motion in the ocean
The motion in the ocean
Size, it ain't everything
Do you measure up, to the pictures in the magazine
Size, it don't mean a thing
The bigger they come, the harder they fall
They ain't around for long
Your mother should know, And she should know
(Chorus)
Cause what you see, is what you get
So dive in the water, get soaking wet
In the motion in the ocean
The motion in the ocean
Size, it's the car they drive,
If it's big and red,little dick sittin' at the wheel
Some guys, think big everything
To the money in the bank, to the prize winning dingaling
Your mother should know, She oughta know
She should have told you so

The River Runs Deep
Baby, while the city sleeps in silence
It's waiting, another side of a line
Come and see the edge of danger
Take a ride, 'cause
The river runs deep, through troubled waters
The river runs deep, to the secret sounds of night,
The river runs deep, past oar and rudder
The river runs deep, and the river runs deep
And tonight its runnin' wild
Listen, to voices in the distance
Whisper, from hearts in time of need
In your eyes I see adventure, your just like me, oh
The river runs deep, through troubled waters
The river runs deep, through the secret sounds of night,
The river runs deep, past oar and rudder
The river runs deep, So you better hold on tight
The river runs deep, as deep as feelings
The river runs deep, when the bullets start to fly
The river runs deep, through dirty dealings
The river runs deep, the river runs deep
And tonight its runnin' wild
But it's in my blood, it's in my soul, it's a part of me
And it won't let go, can you stand the heat, can you take the fire
When your in the open, there's no where left to hide
Come and see the edge of danger
Take a ride,
The river runs deep, through troubled waters
The river runs deep, to the secret sounds of night,
The river runs deep, past oar and rudder
The river runs deep, So you better hold on tight
The river runs deep, as deep as feelings
The river runs deep, when the bullets start to fly
The river runs deep, through dirty dealings
The river runs deep, And to night its running wild
The river runs deep, The river runs deep,
The river runs deep, and it's gonna run you wild
The river runs deep, dirty waters
The river runs deep...
The Flag
The United States of America Military and the flag have been bound together since the birth of the nation. What the Stars and Stripes represents in the hearts and minds of our fighting men and women goes deeper than most of us can understand, so deep they are prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice to keep her flying. The song’s aim is to reinforce the faith that has faded and frayed through times of doubt and uncertainty in the civilian world, in the sincere hope that it will make us all consider we are all bound by the thread of the flag.

Bound By The Thread Of The Flag
(Parr)
My heart is beating like a drum
This lifetime moment has come
It’s in me
It’s in you
The sacred thread
Red, white and blue
We are bound by the thread of the flag
Sing it loud
Sing it proud
Let the heavenly choir sound
We are bound by the thread of the flag
And now the battle is won
Our country’s glory lives on
It’s in me
It’s in you
The sacred thread
Red, white and blue
We are bound by the thread of the flag
Sing it loud
Sing it proud
Let the heavenly choir sound
We are bound by the thread of the flag
Old Glory’s sewn
With threads of hope
And each star and stripe
Is you and I
And at the setting of the sun
A single trumpet and a drum
Lay me down
Lay me down
In the warm forgiving ground
I am bound by the thread of the flag
Sing it loud
Sing it proud
Let the heavenly choir sound
We are bound by the thread of the flag
Sing it loud
Sing it proud
Let the heavenly choir sound
I am bound, you are bound
We are bound, we are bound
Bound by the thread of the flag

Comin' Home
(Parr)
Headin' down this iron road
These six strings on my back
Must be twenty years or more
Since this train roared down the track
Sometimes I hear that whistle blowin'
Conductor shoutin' all aboard
But I'm rustin' in the stockyard
Said that's all I was good for
I dream I'm headin' down this iron road
I dream I'm headin' back
I'm building up a head of steam
Burnin' down the track
I see her waivin' from her window
I'm smiling waivin' back
And I don't feel so alone
I'm comin' home
And it feels like the first time
I'm comin' home
See the world in a new light...
Stuck here in this tunnel
No light at the other end
No one knows I'm down here
Yearnin' for a friend
And I hear that whistle blowin'
In the shadows of my mind
And I know it's her who's callin’
Waiting on the other side
Now I don't feel so alone
I'm comin' home
And it feels like the first time
I'm comin' home
This old world in a new light
I'm comin' home
Comin’ home for the last time
I'm Comin' home
And it feels like the first time
Stokin’ up the embers
I can see the fire rise
Yeah the flames are burnin’
Lighting memories in your eyes
All I'm asking from you
Is a second chance
I'm comin' home
And it feels like the first time
I’m comin' home
Comin’ back for the last time
Comin’ home
This whole world in a new light
I’m comin’ home
Comin’ home for the last time...
