I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel I can roll, I can feel And you can't stop me turning Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun I can move, I can run But you'll never stop me burning Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the day, I'm the day I can show you the way And look, I'm right beside you I'm the night, I'm the night I'm the dark and the light With eyes that see inside you Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Come down with fire And lift my spirit higher Someone's screaming my name Come and make me holy again Well, I can help you, you know I can I'm the man on the silver mountain I'm the man on the silver mountain Just look at me and listen I'm the man, the man, give you my hand I'm the man on the silver mountain Come down with fire And lift your spirit higher I'm the man on the mountain The man on the silver mountain I'm the night, the light The black and the white The man on the silver mountain

Paint me a picture and hang it on the wall Cover it darkly, the lines must start to crawl Down, down, down Spin me around and around Draw me away to the night from the day Leave not a trace to be found Down, down Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down, down Paint me a picture of eyes that never see With flashes of lightning that burn for only me Hey hey hey There's only the devil to pay I'm ready to go Pull me down from below Give me a place I can lay Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down Down, down Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down

(Quatermass cover) I've got nothing in my head Got a floor for a bed My future's at the bottom of a tea cup I got a half a pair of shoes And no time to lose I'm wondering when I'm gonna to wise up So, fortune shine your light on me and My nose Cause we need some security You get a little bad luck And it grows and it grows I'm the black sheep of the family I've got half a pound of rice A beard full of lice A mission called retrogression I've got a pocket full of dust And eating is a must If you wanna make a good impression So, fortune shine your light on me and my dog Cause we need some security While all the folks are living high up the hog I'm the black sheep of the family Don't talk to me about society You got to play the rules Or pay the penalty Because there's nothing to choose Between a handful of blues Double indemnity The hour was wrong And my shadow's getting long My real life's a song, don't need much But I've got an ache in my head I wanna go to bed Tomorrow I don't have to wake up, no So wisdom shine your light on me and my knees Cause it's true what they say about familiarity There's nothing good this way And it's true what they say I'm the black sheep of the family Oh, my wisdom shine your light on me and my knees It's true what they say about familiarity There's nothing good this way And it's true what they say I'm the black sheep of the family Yeah, yeah I'm the black sheep of the family Just me and my dog, yeah, yeah I'm the black sheep of the family Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm the black sheep of the family You've got me on my knees I'm the black sheep of the family Yeah, yeah, yeah

When evening falls She'll run to me Like whispered dreams Your eyes can't see Soft and warm She'll touch my face A bed of straw Against the lace We believed we'd catch the rainbow Ride the wind to the sun Sail away on ships of wonder But life's not a wheel With chains made of steel So bless me Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn We believed we'd catch the rainbow Ride the wind to the sun And sail away on ships of wonder But life's not a wheel With chains made of steel So bless me, oh bless me, bless me Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn Come the dawn

Old hollow eyes Got no ties Walking by the light of the moon Hey shiny boots With strings and flutes Rising like a crazy balloon Close your door He's on the loose Umm, here he comes No hope for you, ooh ooh ooh ooh Snake charmer, he'll haunt her So, hey mystery man What's your plan I've got to tell the world To beware you, don't care He'll hypnotize And tell you lies He's hiding at the top of the stairs Close your door He's on the move I see him coming out There's no hope for you, ooh ooh ooh ooh Snake charmer Snake charmer Get out! Hey fancy face Got no place Living from a hole in the ground Old sparkle eyes He never cries One step ahead of the hound Close your door He's on his way He's coming out of the shadows now, now No hope for you, ooh Snake charmer Snake charmer, now listen to me yeah Hey hollow eyes Got no ties Oh shiny boots Play your strings and flutes Mystery man what's your plan Fancy face, got no place Snake charmer He'll harm her Oh sparkle eyes Got no ties Oh shiny boots Close your door He's on the loose Snake charmer My mystery man what's your plan I've got to tell the world to beware You don't care Hypnotized

One day in the year of the fox Came a time remembered well When the strong young man of the rising sun Heard the tolling of the great black bell One day in the year of the fox When the bell began to ring Meant the time had cometh For one to go To the temple of the king There in the middle of the circle he stands Searching, seeking With just one touch of his trembling hand The answer will be found Daylight waits while the old man sings Heaven help me And then like the rush of a thousand wings It shines upon the one And the day had just begun One day in the year of the fox Came a time remembered well When the strong young man of the rising sun Heard the tolling of the great black bell One day in the year of the fox When the bell began to sing It meant the time had cometh For one to go To the temple of the king There in the middle of the people He stands Seeing, feeling With just a wave of a strong right hand He's gone To the temple of the king Far from the circle at the edge of the world He's hoping, wondering Thinking back from the stories he's heard Of what he's going to see There in middle of the circle it lies Heaven help me Then all could see by the shine in his eyes The answer had been found Back with the people in the circle He stands Giving, feeling With just one touch of a strong right hand They know Of the temple and the king

You'd never know there was some music playin' Until you talked your way inside the door And then a sound like rollin' thunder Begins to push you right thru the floor And there's a great white sign With big black letters That just about explains it all If you don't like rock 'n' roll Well, if you don't like rock 'n' roll If you don't like rock 'n' roll Then it's too late now Well it's too late now Hey hey Of course there was the usual lady And she was dressed the way the stories tell So bein' cool I made a move to grab her But you could see she read story well And then she whipped out a card With big black letters That just about explained it all Well if you don't like rock 'n' roll If you don't like rock 'n' roll Well if you don't like rock 'n' roll Then you're too late now Then you're too late now Well, if you don't like rock 'n' roll Well, if you don't like rock 'n' roll, yeah If you don't like rock 'n' roll Well it's too late now You're too late now If you don't like rock 'n' roll If you don't like my rock 'n' roll Then you're too late now Then you're too late now Then you're too late, too late now

It's only been an hour Since he locked her in the tower The time has come He must be undone By the morning Many times before The tyrant's opened up the door Then someone cries Still we close our eyes Not again Meet me when the sun is in the western skies The fighting must begin before another someone dies Cross bows in the fire light Green sleeves waving Mad men raving Through the shattered night Yeah yeah yeah Flames are getting higher Make it leap unto the spire Draw bridge down Cut it to the ground We shall dance around the fire No more night We have seen the light Let it shine on bright Hang him higher, higher Sixteenth century greensleeves Draw bridge down Cut it to the ground We shall dance all around the fire, around the fire No more night We've seen the light Let it shine on bright Hang him higher, higher Put the man on the fire Draw bridge down Cut it to the ground We gotta dance around the fire, the fire, the fire

See the stars come fallin' down from the sky Gently passing, they kiss your tear drops dry See the wind come, softly blow Your hair from your face And the rain comes falling down In its crazy way Still I'm sad For myself my tears just fall in the dust As I search in the night and find they're lost See the wind come gently blow Time into my heart And the rain comes falling down While we're apart Still I'm sad
