Detroit Rock City

"... congressional reports. President Ford says that he's disappointed with Congress's performance. In Detroit, a Pontiac Michigan youth was reported dead at the scene of a head-on collision on Grand Avenue this morning. The youth was reportedly driving on the wrong side of the boulevard when he struck a delivery truck and was catapulted through the windshield of his car. The driver of the truck is reported to be uninjured. The identities of both men are being withheld by local police. County legislators today are expected to rally to the aid of striking longshoremen in hopes of ending the 9 month deadlock ..."


"...roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day"

I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o' clock, the radio's the only light
I hear my song and it pulls me through
Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
I got to...

Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City

Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Getting late, I just can't wait
Ten o'clock and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start up the car, and I try to make the midnight show

Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Movin' fast, doin' 95
Hit top speed but I'm still movin' much too slow
I feel so good, I'm so alive
I hear my song playin' on the radio
It goes...

Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my God! No time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die!
Why?

Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet

Get up!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

King Of The Night Time World

It's so sad, livin' at home
Far from the city and the midnight fun
It's so bad, goin' to school
So far from me and the dirty things that we do

I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream

It's so fine, lovin' with me
Far from the house and the family fights
It's so fine, bein' with you
Bein' with me, makes everything all right

I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream...all right

It's so sad, you're not content
Far from the music and the neon glow
Ain't you glad we got the time
Far from our folks, they'll never ever know

I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream

I'm the king, I'm the king
I'm the king, I'm the king
I'm the king, I'm the king
I'm a king, I'm a king

I'm a king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream
I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream
I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen
I'm the king of the night time world
Come, live your secret dream
I'm the king of the night time world

God Of Thunder

You've got something about you
You've got something I need
Daughter of Aphrodite
Hear my words and take heed

I was born on Olympus
To my father a son
I was raised by the demons
Trained to reign as the lord...before the

God of thunder
And rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul

I'm the lord of the wastelands
A modern day man of steel
I gather darkness to please me
And I command you to kneel
Before the...

God of thunder
And rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul

I am the lord of the wastelands
A modern day man of steel
I gather darkness to please me
And I command thee to kneel
Before the...

God of thunder
And rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul

Great Expectations

You're sittin' in your seat
And then you stand and clutch your breast
Our music drives you wild
Along with the rest

You watch me singing this song
You see what my mouth can do
And you wish you were the one
I was doing it to

And you watch me playin' guitar
And you feel what my fingers can do
And you wish you were the one
I was doing it to
Well, listen...

You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations

You're dying to be seen
And you wave and call my name
But in the end it seems
That I'm a million miles away

You watch me beatin' my drum
And you know what my hands can do
And you wish you were the one
I was doing it to
Well, listen...

You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations

Then you feels these eyes from the stage
And you see me starin' at you
And you hear between the lines
My voice is calling to you
Well, listen...

(You've got great expectations)
(You've got great expectations)
(You've got great expectations)
Do you want to play the role
(You've got great expectations)
You'd even sell me your soul
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
Do you want to play the role
You've got great expectations
You'd even sell me your soul
You've got great expectations
As long as you can play the role
You've got great expectation

Flaming Youth

Whoa-yeah!

My parents think I'm crazy and they hate the things I do
I'm stupid and I'm lazy
Man, if they only knew

How flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Our flag is flying
Higher and higher and higher

My uniform is leather, and my power is my age
I'm gettin' it together
To break out of my cage

'Cause flaming youth will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Our flag is flying
Higher and higher and higher

Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Will set the world on fire
Flaming youth
Our flag is flying
Higher and higher and higher and higher
And higher and higher and higher

Beth

Beth, I hear you callin'
But I can't come home right now
Me and the boys are playin'
And we just can't find the sound

Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them callin'
Oh, Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do

You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't a home
And I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone

Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them callin'
Oh, Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do

Beth, I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be all right
'Cause me and the boys will be playin' all night...a-ah

You like my 7-inch leather heels
And goin' to all of the shows, but...
