KISS - Unmasked Album Lyrics

When you know, you always get the boys you like
Play nice, then stick them with your knife, take off your insecure disguise

Is that you, crawlin' up my stairs, is that you
(Is that you, crawlin' up my stairs) Is that you, lookin' half way dead

Write on the mirror with your lipstick, much too vain, got scattered brains
You used me just enough to get off, act your age, get off your stage

When you know, you always get the boys you like
Play nice, then stick them with your knife, take off your insecure disguise

Chorus:
Is that you, crawlin' up my stairs, is that you
(Is that you, crawlin' up my stairs)
Is that you, lookin' half way dead, is that you
(Is that you, lookin' half way dead) Is that you, with your long black hair

You always get the boys you like, play nice, then stick them with your knife
You always get the boys you like, play nice, then stick them with your knife
Take off your insecure disguise

chorus repeats out

Chorus:
Shandi, tonight must last us forever, forever we say goodnight and go home
But you know me very well, and I know you, you can't tell me goodnight
(say goodnight)

We been holding on so tight, we're afraid to let it go
Shake it loose, we both could use the ride
Here's another mess I got myself in, and when you touch me you ain't helpin'

chorus - say goodnight when we should say goodbye (say goodbye)

(Shandi, Shandi) Tonight must last us forever and ever
Forever we say goodnight and go home
Shandi, Shandi, tonight must last us forever

Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation, talk to me

People tell me that you run around and that you're no good
You got a bad reputation
I don't care what all the people say, you know they talk too much
It's a fascination
All I wanna do is talk to you and maybe go out, and form some kind of relation

So talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - why don't you
Talk to me - c'mon and talk to me

I just wanna talk to you

Girl I wish you knew the way I felt, you think I'm silly, that it's infatuation
So we better get together soon, because I need you girl
I can't stand the frustration, so

Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - why don't you
Talk to me - c'mon and talk to me

Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - I just wanna talk to you
(repeats out)

In the naked city (in the city) there are ten million stories (naked city)
I'm not lookin' for pity (in the city) in this naked city (naked city)

Street vampires in the night, young lovers and love at first sight
This is my flesh and my fantasy
Older women with younger men, I've got a feelin' I'm in trouble again
But I've got to live my destiny

In the naked city (in the city) it's a race with the devil (naked city)
All the pain and the sorrow (in the city) is there more tomorrow (naked city)
In the naked, naked city (in the city) naked city

Lonely people lookin' for someone, lonely people goin' their way
Lonely people lookin' for something, lonely people goin' their way

In New York, millionaires, lonely people with lonely stares
I'm not lookin' for love and I'm lost in this night

In the naked city, there are ten million stories
I'm not lookin' for pity in this naked city
In the naked, naked city (in the city), it's a race with the devil (naked city)
All the pain and the sorrow (in the city) is there more tomorrow (naked city)

(In the city, naked city) (repeats out)

I love you, you're the only one who could make me feel love was smart
I feel you deep inside of me, beatin' up against my heart

And I found out, I found out, what makes the world go 'round
Oh I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round

You came up to me, turnin' my head around, I was hangin' on
Until you looked up at me, thrashin' your bedroom eyes, I was paralyzed

I love you, you're the only one who could make me feel love was smart
I feel you deep inside of me, beatin' up against my heart

Chorus:
And I found out, oh I found out, what makes the world go 'round
I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round and 'round
And I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round
I found out, really found out, what makes the world go 'round

Whenever I touch you, you know that I want you
I love you forever, whenever you're ready

chorus repeats out...

And tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love
Tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love, tomorrow, tomorrow

I didn't even know your name, like a moth I was in your flame
I knew you wanted me to feel real good by the way you smiled
You didn't have to say a word, I tried to tell you, but I lost my nerve
You know I wanted just to slip away for a little while

And tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love
Tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love, tomorrow, tomorrow
We're gonna fall in love, fall in love, fall in love, fall in love with me
(But tonight, when the feeling feels so right, we got all the love we need)

I didn't know just what to say
This doesn't happen to me every day and that's not my style

And tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love
Tomorrow, we're gonna fall in love, fall in love
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
(Tomorrow) we're gonna fall in love, fall in love
(Tomorrow) fall in love, fall in love
(Tomorrow) fall in love, fall in love, (tomorrow) fall in love, fall in love
We're gonna fall in love, fall in love, fall in love, fall in love with me
(But tonight, when the feeling feels so right, we got all the love we need)

I need time to ease my mind, make up my mind, which one to find

Chorus:
Two sides of the coin to choose from, two sides of the coin, they are mine
Two sides of the coin, I'm gettin' weary
Which one should I choose, I need time

I'd like to say a word or two, about the women we all seem to know
They're all around us, they're everywhere
You meet them this place and then meet them there
Then you deside to pick a mate
Because you're tired of all those dates, of all those dates

I need time to ease my mind, make up my mind, which one to find

chorus - choose one!

chorus repeats out

She's so European, she's one of a kind, one of a kind
She's so European, she's one of a kind, all in her mind
And she's so European, I found out today

She still speaks with an accent from a week in San Tropez
She makes love on her brass bed 'cause her parents are still away
Well you oughtta see her, countin' the stars in her eyes
You'd never believe her, she's got a well-planned coverless smile

She's so European, she's one of a kind, all in her mind
She's so European, she's one of a kind, all in her mind
And she's so European, she told me today

I wanna hold her tight all through the night, I must be dreamin'
I wanna take my time, she's so refined, is that her screamin'

I've seen the looks in your eyes, you've seen through her disguise, yeah

She's so European, she's so European, one of a kind, all in her mind....

(It's easy as it seems) 'Cause it's easy as it seems

I keep on hearin' your road never bends, you ain't committin' no crime
I hear you're sleepin' with one of my friends, tell me why
I wanna know the reason why

(It's easy as it seems) 'Cause it's easy as it seems
When you're walkin' out on your dreams, you just walk away

I played your boyfriend for too many years, you know it's drivin' me wild
I've seen you cryin' without any tears, like a child
You wonder all the reasons why

(It's easy as it seems) And it's easy as it seems
When you're walkin' out on your dreams, you just walk away

If it takes forever, I don't mind, if it takes forever, I've got time
All that I wanna know, can you lay it on the line
'Cause if it takes forever, you know I'm gonna find out

(It's easy as it seems) Yeah it's easy as it seems
When you're walkin' out on your dreams, you just walk away, walk away

(It's easy as it seems) Oh it's easy (easy), easy as it seems
Yeah it's easy (easy), oh it's easy as it seems
Oh it's easy (easy), oh it's easy as it seems
Yeah it's easy (easy), easy as it seems... (to fade)

I thought I'd go out and take a swim today
It was real hot and I just had to get away
They spotted an unknown sub down in the bay
But I don't care, think I'll go swimmin' anyway - yeah

Let's take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive, torpedo girl
Let's take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive

But I knew when I was in the suds and swimmin' around
But then all of a sudden I heard this rumblin' sound
I saw this thing that looked a lot like a submarine
With a pretty girl on the bridge, could this be a dream?
I don't know, could be

Let's take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive, torpedo girl
Let's take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive
Come on, get your feet wet

Torpedo girl, let's take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive
(repeats out)

You're all that I want
You're all that I need
You're all that I see
You're everything to me
You're all that I want

And you need to feel my love inside
And I need to show what I can't hide
It's something that you just can't fight
It feels so good it must be right
There ain't no use in lyin' to myself

Chorus:
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
You're all that I see
You're everything to me
You're all that I feel
You're my dream come true
You're my everything
No matter what you do
You're all that I want

And if you leave me, don't say goodbye, 'cause you're all I need to get by
