A LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN
There's a little piece of heaven
In your eye today
I think I saw it comin'
But I couldn't really say
But if it turns into a teardrop
On your cheek today
Will it turn into a river
Before I wipe it away
And when we're apart
I feel so alone
And the mystery man
Moves into our home
And takes our little piece of heaven
Our little piece of heaven
Our little piece of heaven
There's a little piece of heaven
In the world today
I think I saw it comin'
But I couldn't really say
But if it turns into a teardrop
On your cheek today
Will it turn into a river
By the end of the day
Never fought on my own
I had too much pride
Couldn't make it alone
I want you at my side
To share our little piece of heaven
Our little piece of heaven
A little piece of heaven of our own
And when we're apart
I feel so alone
And the mystery man
Moves into our home
And takes our little piece of heaven
Our little piece of heaven
Our little piece of heaven will be gone

DON'T SET FIRE (TO THE ONE I LOVE)
What do I do when the house is shakin'
Where do I go when the window's breakin'
I'll sit in the garden
And watch the last birds fly
I'll take my time
'Cause I haven't a chance
I'm gonna sit right here
Till the mountains dance
I'm gonna lie in the garden
And kiss my ass goodbye
Then I'll run to a church
And pray for a miracle
For every saint and sinner in the world
There's a million ordinary people
Asking the question why?
Don't set fire to the one I love today
What's gonna happen
When they turn out the light
There'll be a big crowd
Up in heaven tonight
Will they bang, bang, bang
On the pearly gates
Till voice says
Sorry, you left it too late
We're closed
I said we're closed
But the other place is open
Don't set fire to the one I love
Please don't set fir to the one I love today
Don't set fire to the one I love I pray
Don't set fire to the one I love
Please don't set fir to the one I love today
Don't set fire to the one I love I pray
Don't set fire to the world
Don't set ire to the stars above
Don't set fire to the universe
Don't set fire to the one I love

GOLDEN RINGS
The first time I saw her
I knew what I wanted to do
She said that she loved me
And her love would always be true
But there was something about her smile
When I walked her down the aisle
And gave her
One golden ring
To make her happy
It worked for a year
Then the magic began to fade
Then she left with another
And I was alone and afraid
But I hate to see her poor heart break
She's gone and made the same mistake
She's got
Two golden rings
Around her finger
Hanging around
Hanging around the house all day
Hanging around the house all day
You do the washing
You do the ironing
You do the cleaning
You do your brains in
All the live long day
The last time I saw her
Her eyes were empty and cold
The magic had gone
And the years had tarnished the gold
She'd sold the house
And the rings as well
But the only one
She could never sell
Was
My golden ring
Because
My golden ring
Had made her happy

CRIME & PUNISHMENT
In nomine patris
Et filii et spiritus sancti
There, there is no hiding place
There are no shadows to disguise your face
He'll make the sky fall
He'll make the waters freeze
And you'll walk alone in the land
Of the burning trees
There, there is no hiding place
There is no hiding place
But crime & punishment
Crime, crime & punishment
You stand accused
Why do you feel no shame
You're charged with doing the devil's work
Using God's name
He may forget
And he may forgive
But he can see through the walls of the house
Where the guilty live
There, there is no hiding place
There is no hiding place
But crime & punishment
Crime, crime & punishment
Things come, things go
Things change, things grow
Things come, things go
Things change, things grow
We thought the end would never come
But it's coming now
And we'd deal with the problems
But we don't know how
Please send us something to believe in
While there's still time
Will God's revenge be sweet
And will the punishment fit the crime
There is no hiding place
There is no hiding place
But crime & pinishment
Crime, crime & punishment
We're running out of time
So let the punishment fit the crime
In nomine patris
Et filii et spiritus sancti

THE BIG BANG
God was sitting on his throne the other day
Looking round on a cloud
He was looking for something important to do
Something big and loud
Big bang, big bang
Big bang went the thing that created you and me
Mysterious things began to happen out in space
The lord was cooking with a smile upon his face
He threw in a blessing
And he added a curse and said
I'm gonna create the universe
With a big bang, big bang
Big bang went the thing that created you and me
The Devil was given the job of looking after Man
And the fire and the water and the air
But he used the power
To change the plan
And blame it on that asshole in the White House down there
Big bang, big bang
Big bang went the thing that created you and me
When God looked down upon the work that he had done
There was blood upon his throne
The church was empty, they were praying to a gun
They're making big bangs of their own
Big bang, big bang
Big bang went the thing that created you and me

10,000 ANGELS
10,000 angels runnin' after you
10,000 devils close behind
10,000 reasons for doing what is true
Possess your body and your mind
I'm looking for
10,000 angels
riding in the sky
10,000 angels
I saw them, I saw them
I saw them go by
10,000 angels riding on the storm
I saw them, I saw them
I saw them this morning
10,000 angels runnin' after you
10,000 devils close behind
They'll tell you stories
But none of them are true
They stop your body and your mind
Looking for
10,000 angels, one holy fire
10,000 angels
I saw them, I saw them
Don't say I'm a liar
10,000 angels all dressed in white
10,000 angels
I promise it wasn't a trick of the light
I saw them, I saw them, I saw them
I saw them tonight
Tonight
I saw them tonight
I'm looking for 10,000 angels
Choirs in the night
10,000 angels what a glorious sight
10,000 angels playing gold guitars
10,000 angels
I saw them, I saw them
They used to be stars
10,000 angels runnin' after you
10,000 devils close behind
10,000 reasons for doing what is true
Possess your body and your mind
I saw them, I saw them tonight
I saw them, I saw them comin'

SWEET MEMORY
There's a memory
That's haunting me
And it's begging to be said
I know it's real
I can almost feel it
But it's locked inside my head
Sweet memory, yeah
Sweet memory, yeah
Sweet memory
There's a pot of gold
That's waiting for me
Somewhere in the past
There's a shadow there
With eyes that sparkle
But it's disappearing fast
Sweet memory, yeah
Sweet memory, yeah
Sweet memory
Oh, I remember
The mind may wander
But it never forgets
I've seen too many silhouettes
To know
Or even care
Oh, I miss you
The mind may wander
But it never forgets
She smoked too many cigarettes
To know
And I remember
This memory
Is killing me
But I can't fail the test
'Cause if I'm good in this life
She'll be waiting in the next

AIR FORCE ONE
Come in, come in, Air Force One
Come in, come in, One
Come in, come in, Air Force One
Come in, come in, One
Come in, come in
There's a bomb on board
There's a bomb on board
All you people on that plane
Take your last sip of champagne
Then blow away
Blow away
All you people on that plane
Where you gonna land
You can't land on Venus
You can't land on Mars
You can't in Texas
There's no breathable air
All the breathable air
Has gone away, gone away
All you people on that plane
Where you gonna land
Flying through the night
To save the world
The wings of power thunder
Lonely are the brave
On Air Force One
And later after dinner
They will close their eyes
And watch the stars go out
From Air Force One

THE LAST PAGE OF HISTORY
I'm burning rubber
Down the highway
I'm going 93mph
There's a lot of traffic
Heading my way
Away from the missile shower
And there's a truck
In the fast lane
And it's blowing it's whistle loud
And as he passes me
In the mirror
I see a big black mushroom cloud
We're rolling down the road again
Into history
The last page of history
I said
Hey!
You talking to me
You're blocking the highway
They said
Man, what's the matter with you
I said
I gotta get back to town
And they said
There ain't no town to get back to
What do you mean
What are you saying
What's with all this panic and fear
This is a joke
And they said
Is it?
I thought they were making a video here
We're rolling down the road again
Into history
The last page of history, history
You know it's written in the book, history
We're making television history, history
Take a long last look
So hi baby, baby
Bye baby, baby
Goodbye baby
Bye, bye
Why
Don't cry
It's sad that we're on
The last page of history
The last page of history now
And all the trucks were full of harmonica players
And the cars were full of organ players
And they all played solo
For the camera
1, 2, 3, 4
Rolling down the road again
Into history
The last page of history
I'm confused, so confused
What's your problem
You're part of the news
I'm gonna be famous
I'm gonna be rich
You're gonna be one dead
Son of a bitch
'Cause you're wrong
So wrong
You're as wrong as a man can be
This ain't no goddamn special effect
It's the last page of history
We're rolling down the road again
Happy trails to you
Until we meet again
The last page of history!
