Whole Lotta Love
[Originally by Led Zeppelin]
You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin',
I'm gonna send you back to schoolin',
Way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.
[Chorus:]
Wanna Whole Lotta Love [4x]
You've been learnin', baby, I bean learnin',
All them good times, baby, baby, I've been yearnin',
Way, way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love... I'm gonna give you my love.
[Chorus]
You've been coolin', baby, I've been droolin',
All the good times I've been misusin',
Way, way down inside, I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.
[Chorus]
Way down inside... woman... You need... love.
Shake for me, girl. I wanna be your backdoor man.
Keep it coolin', baby.

Acid Queen
If your child ain't all he should be now
This girl will put him right
I'll show him what he could be now
Just give me one night
I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen
Pay me before I start
I'm the Gypsy and I'm guaranteed
To mend his aching heart
Give us a room, close the door
Leave us for a while
You won't be a boy no more
Young, but not a child
I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen
Pay me before I start
I'm the Gypsy, I'm guaranteed
To tear your soul apart
Gather your wits and hold them fast
Your mind must learn to roam
Just as the Gypsy Queen must do
You're gonna hit the road
My work's begun, now look at him
He's never been more alive
His head it shakes, his fingers clutch
Watch his body writhe
I'm the Gypsy, Acid Queen
Pay me before I start
I'm the Gypsy, I'm guaranteed
To break your little heart
If your child ain't all he should be now
This girl will put him right
I'll show him what he could be now
Just give me one more night
I'm the Gypsy, the Acid Queen
Pay me before I start
I'm the Gypsy, I'm guaranteed
To tear your soul apart

Root, Toot Undisputable Rock 'n' Roller
When you walk into the bar
I'm the first one you're gonna see
Business and pleasure just don't mix
So can I take your order please
You fellas know I don't take no mess
It's a whole lotta woman in this dress
They call me the
Root, toot undisputable Rock and Roller
I gotta fine fanny but a rough talking Annie
Rock and Roller
Every time the jukebox plays
I get out on the floor
Trouble maker come my way
And I'll gladly show him the door
Everybody knows to keep it cool
Cause I'm fresh out of karate school
They call me the
Root, toot undisputable Rock and Roller
I gotta fine fanny but a rough talking Annie
Rock and Roller
Ahhh the root, toot undisputable...

Viva La Money
Nothing make 'em holla
Like the Almighty Dolla
Jungle hogs are ready, again
If you rich and treat her nice
They get a good price
Over charge the poor
Some more
I'm talking 'bout
Viva la money
Now you buy a cheap thrill
And you can pay a few bills
Even get yourself killed, fact
Now it can fool ya heart
And make 'em think your smart
Tear a friend apart
Too bad, too bad
Viva la money
It can make you feel good
But it you feel bad
It can make you happy
But it can make you sad
It can you do right
But it can make you do wrong
And it'll still be around
When you dead and gone
Viva la money

Sometimes When We Touch
(Dan Hill)
You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
'Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I see how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Music Keeps Me Dancin'
Music takes me higher
Sets the fire of my soul
When the music's louder
The rhythm takes control, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
As y'all plan to party
Dance 'til I can no more
Music is the one remaining
That makes my spirit go, oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh-oh
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing, oh!
Music keeps me dancing
I can't stop the motor
That takes my body over
Rhythm is the one thing, baby
That makes my spirit go, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-ooh, oh
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Play it back!
Music keeps me dancing (whoa-whoa, ooh-oh)
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing (whoa-whoa, ooh-oh)
Music keeps me dancing (whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa, ooh-oh)
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing (yeah, yeah!)
Music keeps me dancing (music keeps me dancing)
Music keeps me dancing (music keeps me dancing)
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps me dancing
Music keeps

Help
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER
SO MUCH YOUNGER THAN TODAY
I NEVER NEEDED ANYBODIES
HELP IN ANY WAY
AND NOW THOSE DAYS ARE GONE
I`M NOT SO SELF ASSURED
AND NOW I FIND
I`VE CHANGED MY MIND
I`VE OPENED UP THE DOORS
[CHORUS]
HELP ME IF YOU CAN
I`M FEELING DOWN
AND I DO APPRECIATE
YOU BEING `ROUND
OH HELP ME IF YOU CAN
I`M FEELING DOWN
WON`T YOU PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME
AND NOW MY LIFE HAS CHANGED
IN OH SO MANY WAYS
MY INDEPENDENCE SEEMS TO
VANISH IN THE HAZE
AND EVERY NOW AND THEN
I FEEL SO INSECURE
AND NOW I JUST NEED YOU LIKE
I NEVER DID BEFORE

Whats Love Got To Do With It
You must understand
That the touch of your hand
Makes my pulse react
That it`s only the thrill
Of boy meeting girl
Opposites attract
It`s physical
Only logical
You must try to ignore
That it means more than that
[Chorus]
Oh whats love got to do, got to do with it
What`s love but a second hand emotion
What`s love got to do, got to do with it
Who needs a heart
When a heart can be broken
It may seem to you
That i`m acting confused
When you`re close to me
If i tend to look dazed
I`ve read it someplace
I`ve got cause to be
There`s a name for it
There`s a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason
You do it for me
[Chorus]
I`ve been thinking of a new direction
But i have to say
I`ve been thinking about my own protection
It scares me to feel this way
What`s love got to do, got to do with it
What`s love but a sweet old fashioned notion
What`s love got to do, got to do with it
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken

Better Be Good To Me
A PRISONER OF YOUR LOVE
ENTANGLED IN YOUR WEB
HOT WHISPERS IN THE NIGHT
I`M CAPTURED BY YOUR SPELL CAPTURED
OH YES I`M TOUCHED BY THIS SHOW OF EMOTION
SHOULD I BE FRACTURED BY YOUR LACK OF DEVOTION
SHOULD I, SHOULD I
OH YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
THAT`S HOW IT`S GOT TO BE NOW
CAUSE I DON`T HAVE NO USE
FOR WHAT YOU LOOSELY CALL THE TRUTH
OH YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
YES YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
AND I THINK IT`S ONLY RIGHT
THAT WE DON`T MEET AT NIGHT
WE STAND FACE TO FACE
AND YOU PRESENT YOUR CASE
AND I KNOW YOU KEEP TELLING ME THAT YOU LOVE ME
AND I REALLY DO WANT TO BELIEVE
BUT DID YOU THINK I`D JUST ACCEPT YOU IN BLIND FAITH
OH SURE BABE ANYTHING TO PLEASE YOU
OH YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
THAT`S HOW IT`S GOT TO BE NOW
CAUSE I DON`T HAVE THE TIME FOR YOUR OVER LOADED LINES
YES YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
YES YOU BETTER BE GOOD TO ME
AND I REALLY DON`T SEE
WHY IT`S SO HARD TO BE
GOOD TO ME
AND I DON`T UNDERSTAND
WHAT`S YOUR PLAN
THAT YOU CAN`T
BE GOOD TO ME

Private Dancer
WELL THE MEN COME IN THESE PLACES
AND THE MEN ARE ALL THE SAME
YOU DON`T LOOK AT THEIR FACES
AND YOU DON`T ASK THEIR NAMES
YOU DON`T THINK OF THEM AS HUMAN
YOU DON`T THINK OF THEM AT ALL
YOU KEEP YOUR MIND ON THE MONEY
KEEPING YOUR EYES ON THE WALL
[CHORUS]
I`M YOUR PRIVATE DANCER
A DANCER FOR MONEY
I`LL DO WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
I`M YOUR PRIVATE DANCER
A DANCER FOR MONEY
AND ANY OLD MUSIC WILL DO
I WANT TO MAKE A MILLION DOLLARS
I WANT TO LIVE OUT BY THE SEA
HAVE A HUSBAND AND SOME CHILDREN
YEAH I GUESS I WANT A FAMILY
ALL THE MEN COME IN THESE PLACES
AND THE MEN ARE ALL THE SAME
YOU DON`T LOOK AT THEIR FACES
AND YOU DON`T ASK THEIR NAMES

I Cant Stand The Rain
[CHORUS]
I CAN`T STAND THE RAIN
AGAINST MY WINDOW
BRINGING BACK SWEET MEMORIES
I CAN`T STAND THE RAIN
AGAINST MY WINDOW
BECAUSE HERE`S NOT HERE WITH ME
HEY WINDOW PAIN
DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW SWEET IT USED TO BE
WHEN WE WERE TOGETHER
EVERYTHING WAS SO GRAND
NOW THAT WE`VE PARTED
THERE`S ONE SOUND THAT I JUST CAN`T STAND

Show Some Respect
I MADE A RESOLUTION
AND A PLAN TO DO MY WORK
BUT I NEED YOU TO MAKE IT WORK
YOU`VE GOT TO READ THE MESSAGE
UNDERSTAND WHAT`S ON MY MIND
CAUSE NOT TO SEE WOULD BE A CRIME
AND WE COULD LOOSE IT ANYTIME
[CHORUS]
WE`VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT
WE`VE GOT TO LEARN TO PROTECT
DON`T TAKE IT FOR GRANTED I KNOW
THAT IF YOU WANT TO STAY CLOSE
WE`VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT
BUT I BELIEVE IN WORKING
THEN I BELIEVE IN A LITTLE HELP
CAUSE I`M NOT LIGHT UNTO MYSELF
WITHOUT A THING OF VALUE
WHY SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST
WE DON`T KNOW WHAT`S UP AHEAD
WE CAN`T LET OURSELVES FORGET
[CHORUS]
FOR THE THINGS THAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU
FROM THE WOMAN THAT YOU SEE INSIDE
DON`T LET IT WALK OUT THE DOOR
LOVE FOLLOWS EVERY TIME
[CHORUS]

we don't need another hero (thunderdome)
Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
The last generation (the last generation)
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
Looking for something
We can rely on
There's got to be something better out there
Love and compassion
Their day is coming (coming)
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change it
Living under the fear 'til nothing else remains
All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
So what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a life
Or end in the dark?
In the name of nothing
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
All the children say
We don't need another hero (we don't need another hero)
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome

One Of The Living
In the desert sun every step that you take could be the final one
In the burning heat hanging on the edge of destruction
You can't stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
They always said that the living would envy the dead
So now you're gonna shoot bullets of fire
Don't want to fight but sometimes you've got to
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You've got ten more thousand miles to go
Because you're one of the living
And if we can't stick together
One of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight
Walk tall, cool, collected and savage
Walk tall, bruised, sensual, ravaged
It's every man for himself, every woman, every child
A new breed, ferocious and wild
And all they want to do is shoot bullets of fire
They want to fight and sometimes you've got to
You're some soul survivor
There's just one thing you've got to know
You've got ten more thousand years to go
Because you're one of the living
And if we can't stick together
One of the living
Who's gonna make it tonight

Its Only Love
(B. Adams & J. Vallance)
When the feeling is ended
There ain't no use pretending
Don't you worry, it's only love
When your world has been shattered
Ain't nothing else matters
It ain't over, it's only love
And that's all
When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain't easy, but it's only love
And if your life ain't worth living
And you're ready to give in
Just remember that it's only love
Yeah, that's all
You can live without the aggravation
You gotta wanna win, you gotta wanna win
You keep looking back in desperation
Over and over and over again

Typical Male
TELL ME LAWYER WHAT TO DO
I THINK I`M FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU
DEFEND ME, FROM THE WAY I FEEL
WON`T YOU GIVE ME SOME ADVICE
ON HOW TO HANDLE MY PRIVATE LIFE
I`M SURE THAT WE CAN MAKE A DEAL
I CONFESS I`M A FOOL FOR A MAN
WITH A CLEVER MIND
BUT YOUR INTELLECT AIN`T NO MATCH
FOR THIS HEART OF MINE
[CHORUS]
ALL I WANT IS A LITTLE REACTION
JUST ENOUGH TO TIP THE SCALES
I`M JUST USING MY FEMALE ATTRACTION
ON A TYPICAL MALE, ON A TYPICAL MALE
YOUR SENSE OF JUSTICE I`LL EMBRACE
BUT YOUR DEFENCE DON'T HELP MY CASE
I`M DEEP IN TROUBLE WITH THE LAW
SOMETHING ABOUT AUTHORITY
SEEMS TO BRING OUT THE BAD IN ME
HEY LAWYER, GOTTA CATCH ME WHEN I FALL
OH THEY SAY THAT YOU MATCH YOUR WITS
WITH THE BEST OF THEM
BUT I KNOW WHEN I`M CLOSE YOU`RE JUST
LIKE THE REST OF THEM
[CHORUS]
SO PUT YOUR BOOKS ASIDE
LOOSEN OFF THE SUIT AND TIE
OPEN OFF YOUR HEART AND LET ME IN
OPEN OFF YOUR HEART AND LET ME IN

Two People
TWO PEOPLE LIVING ON THE EDGE OF LIFE
ARE PEOPLE RUNNING OUT OF DREAMS AND TIME
I CAN HEAR IT WHEN YOU TELL ME SO
I CAN FEEL IT BUT I CAN`T LET GO
[CHORUS]
TWO PEOPLE GOTTA STICK TOGETHER
LOVE ONE ANOTHER
SAVE IT FOR A RAINY DAY
SOME PEOPLE GOTTA STAY WHATEVER
GIVE ONE ANOTHER
SHELTER ON A RAINY DAY
TWO PEOPLE LIVING IN THE WAY WE DO
ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO KEEP A LOVE ANEW
WHAT TO DO TO MAKE SOME SENSE OF IT
WHAT TO DO TO MAKE THE FEELING FIT
[CHORUS]
I`LL COME RUNNING TO YOUR RESCUE
YOU GOTTA STAND BY ME
THERE`S ALOT OF LOVE BETWEEN US
WE SHOULD NEVER LET GO

What You Get Is What You See
SOME BOYS GOT THE LOOK OF THE GREEK ADONIS
SOME BOYS TRY TALK YOU OFF YOUR FEET
SOME BOYS THINK THEY`RE GODS GIFT TO WOMEN
SOME BOYS THINK THEY`RE SWEET ENOUGH TO EAT
TRY TO CHANGE THE HABIT OF A LIFETIME
DON`T EVEN TRY
`COS WHEN YOU CUT DOWN DEEPER THAN THE ICING
YOU REALISE
[CHORUS]
WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
AIN`T NOTHING MORE TO IT
AND IF YOU WANNA LOVE A WOMAN LIKE ME
IT TAKES A MAN TO DO IT
IF WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
WHEN I DON`T WANT YOUR KIND OF LOVE
SOME GUYS GOT LIPS THAT YOU CAN`T HELP KISSING
SOME GUYS GOTTA SMILE THAT YOU CAN`T RESIST
SOME GUYS GOTTA BUILD A REPUTATION
THEY JUST WANNA ADD YOU TO THE LIST
YOU GOTTA LOT OF PHYSICAL ATTRACTION
I CAN`T DENY
BUT CAN YOU GUARANTEE ME SATISFACTION
WELL I`M STILL WAITING, WAITING, WAITING, WAITING, WAITING
[CHORUS]
SO LET ME SEE YOUR CARDS ON THE TABLE
BEFORE I BUY
I ALWAYS READ THE WRITING ON THE LABEL
SO GIVE ME REASON TO BELIVE THERE`S MORE TO YOU
THAN MEETS THE EYE
[CHORUS]
THERE`S NOTHING MORE TO IT
IT TAKES A MAN, TAKES A MAN
I DON`T WANT YOUR KIND OF LOVE
THERE`S NOTHING MORE TO IT

GIRLS, WHISPERING WIND, WHAT ARE WE GIVING AWAY
WE USED TO BE SO HAPPY
REMEMBER, REMEMBER, SO HAPPY
