Love Delicatessen

I feel lowdown and blue 
I didn't have what I wanted 
That's when I saw the sign 
Outside the place that promised salvation 
I gave the waitress my order 
She said it'd be just a minute 
(I was lookin' at the pies) 
You know I was hungry 
But not for food
At the love delicatessen 
Oh yeah 
I'll meet you at the love delicatessen 
Oh yeah
Outside the summer sun beat down 
On a lusty summer day 
Inside the people still had on their shades 
They were all in the dark 
I heard the bell ring 
And my order was up 
I could believe the size of the portion 
Man my eyes lit up 
Here it comes
At the love delicatessen 
Oh yeah 
I'll meet you at the love delicatessen 
Oh yeah
Mmm.. I think I've had my fill 
Went to the front counter 
To pay the bill 
Oh by the way 
Give me one of those cherry life savers 
And the summer sun beat down 
So hard and I was on my way
From the love delicatessen 
Love delicatessen 
Ill meet you there (x3) 
Today 
At the love delicatessen 
Ok 
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen 
Oh yeah 
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen 
Ok 
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen 
Today 
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen 
Ok

Video Killed The Radio Star

I heard you on my wireless back in '52 
I like awake intent on tuning in on you 
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through 
oh-a-oh
They took the credit for your second symphony 
Rewritten by machines on new technology 
And now I understand the supernova scene 
oh-a-oh 
You met the first one 
oh-a-oh 
I met your children
Video killed the radio star 
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
And now we meet in an abandoned studio 
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago 
And I remember, the jingles used to go, 
oh-a-oh 
You were the first one 
oh-a-oh 
You were the last one
Video killed the radio star 
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far 
Too far! 
Alright
Video killed the radio star 
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far 
Pictures came and broke your heart 
Put all the blame on VCR....ready?
You are... the radio star (x2) 
Video killed the radio star (x8) 
Video killed that radio star, yes it did

Mobile Home

A tiny turtle in a can 
I dig a living room in the sand 
Poke a toe through a hole in the floor 
(Floor!) 
And ramble on some more 
(Ramble on!)
Mobile home..... My mobile home 
My mobile home
I take easy, small and slow 
I hang around 'till its time to blow 
I take easy, small and slow 
(Slow!) 
Shed away to lighten my load 
(Lighten the load!)
Mobile home..... My mobile home 
My mobile home 
Mobile home... Go! 
In the road
To some highway Pebble Beach 
Alabama's just out of reach (?) 
Lessiana temp swamp 
(Swamp!) 
Montana on a mountain top 
(On a mountain top!)
Mobile home..... My mobile home 
My mobile home 
Mobile home..... My mobile home 
I got mobile home 
Mobile home..... My mobile home

Japan

Big shiny jet plane in the sky 
Please drop us off as we go by 
We're an American band
And everything is rockin' out of control 
When we hit Japan
Faxes from the veiwers on tv 
Karioke hokey-pokey on the screen 
Dig my toes into the Pacific sand
And everything is rockin' out of control 
When we hit Japan (x3)
Yeah, 20 tonnes of Sushi-lovin' fun 
(Yum yum) 
The kiddy line will thank you one by one 
(Arigato) 
Please come out to see us when we land
And everything is rockin' out of control 
When we hit Japan (x25)
Yeah, hi ya! 
Wo-wo-ho-wo-wo-ho-ho-ho

Sunshine

You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Every time I see you (x2) 
Every time 
You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Ooh.....
And I want to be near you 
And I want to be where you are 
You're a steak and I spear you 
You sell beers and a sparkle star 
Nestled between a worm and rock 
Snuggle it down for sleep time 
Long lazy afternoon spent shearing poodles in the park
You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Every time I see you (x2) 
Every time 
You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Ooh.....
And I want to be near you 
And I let you to dance on my feet 
If I squint I can hear you 
Playing all day long in the street 
I look for your racecar 
Out on the highway 
Then you go zooming by me 
In your special zooming lane
You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Every time I see you (x2) 
Every time 
You're the one.. you're the sunshine (x2) 
Ooh.....
You're the one

Back Porch (live)

Yeah! 
Drum solo.. drum solo! 
Phil Rott! 
Ladies and gentlemen.. Mr Phil Rott
Alright here's a song that we actually know 
And we actually made it up 
So I hope you actually enjoy it 
and it goes actually like this
Happy with no teeth, happy here in hibernation 
Slurpin' on a peach, starin' at the situation 
Kitty at my foot, meowin' out a conversation 
Rockin' back 'n' forth, that's my only destination
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me 
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that.....
Meeeeeeeee-ow, wow, wow, wow
Got a two-string on my lap, total subsonic vacation 
Got chicken on the drums, poundin' out a perfect prescription 
Got twenty little worms, all plug into amplification 
Got fifteen hundred bass drum luggin' bug-eyed monkeys 
All arriving at the station
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me 
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that.....
Me me meeeee-ow whoa, whoa, whoa
I'm old.. I'm an old man 
I took all my money 
And I bought myself a little shacky-condominium outside of Syndey, Australia 
I decided to retire here in Asustralia 
Because it's so gosh-damn beatuiful 
I love it so tenderly 
So much it's just home 
Oh so out for underneath the trees 
Come a bunch of little chickies 
And the buckets and the monkeys 
With the one-string, no-string string, two-string guitars 
"Hey Chris wanna jam?" 
Sure, why not!
But I'm an old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me 
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch 
Old man on the back porch, and that.....

Tiki Lounge God

I had a girl and she did me wrong 
I didn't let that kind of shit go on too long 
Split the clouds and divided the sea 
Showed the evil girl how nasty the tiki god could be 
She didn't call no more nor bother me 
My little tiki god make sure I'd live in peace 
One day I read they found a body in the river 
Tiki God, make me shake, make me shiver
I got a Tiki God... saves me... I got a Tiki God
When Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble 
Had no idea it would cause so much trouble 
When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean 
There was a rumble, an awful commotion 
Don't ask me how, but the tiki found Bobby 
He thought the idol was some Hawaiian hobby 
Turned out the god was mean and vicious 
Didn't respond to Bobby's 3 wishes
He had a Tiki God... saves him... he had a Tiki God
So when you're caught up in an evil plot 
Your life's in danger and you can hear the shots 
Your head is spinning and you're fading fast 
How long do you think the kind of fun can last 
Your luck will change with a simple motion 
I found my idol in a bottle on the ocean 
Splits the clouds and divides the sea 
And shows those evil guys how nasty those tiki gods can be
You got a Tiki God... saves you... You got a Tiki God

Teenage Girl

They took a hot-rod motor and they put it in her heart 
It's a dream location but she's tearing it apart 
Tounge-tied and twelve 
Staring up at perfect pearls 
He's 13, she's 13 
She's a teenage girl 
Teenage girl (x5)
Skin the surface like a Mach 5 flower 
Fibreglass shakin' and it shatters from the power 
It's crush and blow 
When the engine overflows 
That motor's pride 
Just say goodbye to Water World 
Teenage girl (x5) 

Tounge-tied and twelve 
Staring up at perfect pearls 
He's 13, she's 13 
He's 13 teenage girl
He's 13, she's 13 (x2) 
Teenage girl

Slip Away

I had a girl 
Yeah.. "had" is the word 
I tried to hold on 
But it was pretty absurd 
She said she loved me 
And I said I loved her too 
But we weren't having any fun 
So what could I do
I let her slip away... 
Away.... 
I let her slip away... 
Away...
I had a car 
Yeah.. the colour was blue 
It kept breaking down 
So what could I do 
I put an ad in the papaer 
You know I called it a steal 
Then this guy came to see it 
And we struck up a deal
I let it slip away... 
Away.... 
I let her slip away... 
Away...
I had a thought 
You know I thought it a lot 
I thought I was smart 
And I now I know that I'm not
I let it slip away... 
Away.... 
I let her slip away... 
Away...

Tremelo Blooz

Tremelo blooz, ain't got nothin' to loose 
Ain't got nothin' but those tumblin', mumbling blooz
Brains came out first when I was born 
I bent down to catch a rose and I caught a thorn 
Hey Miss Monkey, how d'ya get so blue? 
Monkey looked up with her teary eyes and said 
I've been missin' you....
She got those tremelo blooz, ain't got nothin' to loose 
Ain't got nothin' but those tumblin', mumbling blooz
Hello Chickey you've been packed away 
For nine months and a cold December day 
Your yellow body's crumpled and covered with doo 
Here's a microphone, Chickey sing whatever you choose...
Chickey got those tremelo blooz, ain't got nothin' to loose 
He ain't got nothin' but those tumblin', mumbling blooz
My friend Froggie, collapsed back stage 
Face down in a pile of cocaine 
The rocker doctor said he had the flu 
But Froggie felt it deep inside 
He knew exactly what he had to do...
He sing those tremelo blooz, he ain't got nothin' to loose 
He ain't got nothin' but those tumblin', mumbling blooz

Cleveland Rocks

All this energy callin' me 
Back where it comes from 
It's such a crude attitude 
It's back where it belongs

"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Mamma knows but she don't care 
She's got her worries too 
Seven kids and a phoneo player 
And the rent is due
All the little chicks with their chrimson lips 
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!" 
Livin' in sin with a safety pin 
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!" 
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!" 
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!" 
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"

I play 'em just like me grandad do 
He was a rocker and I am too

"Yeah Cleeeveland rocks!"
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks! (x9 1/2)

Lump (live)

Hello everybody 
Alright! 
How.. ooh.. How's it goin'? 
So they tell me that everybody down on the floor bought 
Our CD to get down on the floor 
Thanks very much for buying the CD 
Give yourselves a big round of applause 
Shame on you people up there 
Alright 
Here's rock song
Lump sat alone in a boggy marsh 
Totally motionless except for her heart 
Mud flowed up into Lump's pyjamas 
She totally confused all the passing piranhas
She's Lump, she's Lump 
She's in my head 
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump 
She might be dead
Lump lingered last in line for brains, 
And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane 
Small thing's so sad that birds could land 
Is Lump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band?
She's Lump, she's Lump 
She's in my head 
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump 
She might be dead
Lump was limp and lonely and needed a shove 
Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love 
She spent her twenties between the sheets 
Life limped along at subsonic speeds
She's Lump, she's Lump 
She's in my head 
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump 
I do beliveve that she's dead 
(Dead as a doornail)
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so 
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so, yeah 
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so 
And that's all I have to say about that
