Action! Get down, get with it!

seventy-one, time for a change
the hype is on, it's shocking and strange
he takes the stage, sky in his hair
hot love in the air – everywhere

four London lads, living their dreams
they start a band, as sweet as can be
raising hell, outrageous and wild
leave the sixteens behind – in style

hairspray and make up, satin and gold
platform heels and you're good to go
outfits of silver, outshine the sun
The glamattack is on

out of the dark with blackened eyes
the king of shock took the world by surprise
electric chairs, spiders and snakes
rock will never be the same – again

crimson blaze crossing his face
we were told he came down from space
thin and white, red spikey hair
no one out there compares – I swear

slap on some lipstick, highlight your hair
You're defined by the clothes you wear
splash on some glitter, show us no fear
The glamattack is here

No one to turn to, not a friend in the world
Just me and my shadow, ignored by the girls
I put my headphones on and dream away the days
One day it's me up there shining on that stage
				

As if out of nowhere they fell to earth
Space invaders on a quest to save the world

We've got five years of pain until we die
Only five years remain, what a surprise
You and me, right here for all to see
The rise of the Starman

He will bring salvation, saw in a dream
He'll convey a message of hope and relief

Only five years are left before our fall
A lousy five years at best, that's all we've got
You and me, one day he'll set us free
The rise of the Starman

And then out of nowhere he set the world on fire
This cosmic messenger of dreams blew our minds

He's got five years of fame before he dies
Only five years remain, what a surprise
You and I, we will never ever die
The rise of the Starman

As the kids were cheering he paid the price of fame
On his final night he gave it all and died on stage

Only five years were left before he fell
A lousy five years at best, inside this hell
You and I, saw him waiting in the sky
The rise and fall of the Starman
				

[Verse 1]
I saw you last night down at Lake Geneva
Hot as hell, legs for miles
I started talking, you started walking
And then you pushed me aside
Now I'm a hard-headed man with a hard-headed plan
Never backing down
So I asked you out, but you fed me some lie
"My cat's sick and my dog just died"

[Chorus]
You're such a liar, baby
But I know where you are, yes I do
You're playing with fire
I'm gonna burn it down, down, down
Down to the ground
This place is gonna die, die, die
With an awful sound

[Verse 2]
All my life they called me a fool
No style, never been cool
In and out of trouble, in and out of jail
Yeah, I was born to fail
I guess a twelve gauge flare oughta get the job done
I got a guy, gonna get me one
I'll strike back, settle the score
Enough is enough, I can't take no more

[Chorus]
You're such a liar, baby
But you're gonna pay, yes you will
You're playing with fire
I'm gonna burn it down, down, down
Down to the ground
This place is gonna die, die, die
With an awful sound

[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna burn it down

[Bridge]
I'll never know why they never found out
She never knew what it was all about
I let her go, set her free
She was no good for me
But, hey, no one got hurt, nobody died
I'm breathing easy, guess it's all right
Maybe one day they'll write me a song
A tale like this, you can't go wrong

[Outro]
Yeah, such a liar she was
But I evened the score, yes I did
She was playing with fire
I had to burn it down, down, down
Down to the ground
The place had to die, die, die
With an awful sound
Burn it down
				

ghostly children climb that
stony mountainside and
my heart began to race
anticipation

white beam of light dividing
through that prism shining
i knew i could relate
inspiration - imagination

when it all seemed lifeless
they gave us timeless
they took us by storm

when art was dying
their minds were flying
they took us by storm

a warrior radiates a
strange electric glow and
a new age had begun
such a sensation

they made a hubcap fly in
that psychedelic sky, yes
this had to be the one
innovation – no limitation

when artists were ailing
and we needed saving
they took us by storm

when designs were soulless
and it all seemed hopeless
they took us by storm
				

[Verse 1]
It's magic hour, the moon is full
Warm wind fading, the water cool
Angle wide, she sheds her clothes
Zoom in for close-up, and in she goes
The music builds, she's not alone
Something watches from deep below
She fights and cries, is she alive or dead?
Pull back, fade out, the sea turns red

[Chorus]
Shine, shine, golden boy
Light the way, we will follow
Fly high, golden boy
Blaze your trail, we will all go

[Verse 2]
Moving shot, the tires squeal
In the rear-view mirror, he grabs the wheel
The truck speeds up with relentless force
Then it crashes downwards with a deadly roar

[Chorus]
Shine, shine, golden boy
Light the way, we will follow
Fly high, golden boy
Blaze your trail, we will all go

[Post-Chorus]
Lonely child, broken home, a genius unknown
An undiscovered mastermind
An underdog, an easy prey, no matter what they say
He'll do it anyway
A diehard fan, a nerd, he's taking on the world
A cinematic prodigy
A pioneer, a great savant, he knows what we all want
And the best is yet to come

[Chorus]
Shine, shine, golden boy
Light the way, we will follow
Fly high, golden boy
Blaze your trail, we will all go

[Verse 3]
Panning up to the midnight sky
A celestial splendour of coloured lights
The ship descends upon Devil's Tower
A majestic climax of light and sound

[Chorus]
Shine, shine, golden boy
Light the way, we will follow
Fly high, golden boy
Blaze your trail, we will all go

[Post-Chorus]
A lonely child, broken home, a genius unknown
An undiscovered mastermind
An underdog, an easy prey, no matter what they say
He'll do it anyway
A diehard fan, a nerd, he's taking on the world
A cinematic prodigy
A pioneer, a great savant, he knows what we all want
And the best is yet to come

[Outro]
We all know the best is yet to come
				

[Intro]
Come on, dad!

[Verse 1]
Son, it's time, you better listen
You've no idea what you've been missin'
Your mind is closed, it's so sad
Your rock and roll, it drives me mad

[Verse 2]
Son, you know these two fine ladies?
Sure as hell they'll drive you crazy
Lovely eyes, they sing like angels
Gorgeous smiles, oh, those faces

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm a rocker, that's all I want
You will never change me (Don't even try)
A simple rocker, it's in my blood
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they dragged me out to see ABBA
Oh no, right in the middle of the metal days
You know, I really thought that I would hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Verse 3]
Son you need sophistication
Widen your appreciation
Some style and grace I beseech you
You've got no taste, I will teach you

[Pre-Chorus]
No, I'm a rocker, it's who I am
You will never change me (Come on, dad)
A simple rocker, please understand
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they hauled me out to the opera
That's right, smack in the middle of puberty
I was convinced that I was gonna hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I can't deny my guilty pleasures
Deep down inside I hide 'em all away
No way to fight my guilty pleasures
Nobody knows, I'll never, ever say
Now watch me play

[Verse 3]
Son you need sophistication
Widen your appreciation
Some style and grace I beseech you
You've got no taste, I will teach you

[Pre-Chorus]
No, I'm a rocker, it's who I am
You will never change me (Come on, dad)
A simple rocker, please understand
You may as well give up, just stop
I'll never be who you want me to be

[Chorus]
But then they hauled me out to the opera
That's right, smack in the middle of puberty
I was convinced that I was gonna hate it
Yes, I came to mock, came to mock, stayed to rock

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I can't deny my guilty pleasures
Deep down inside I hide 'em all away
No way to fight my guilty pleasures
Nobody knows, I'll never, ever say
Now watch me play
				

T-Rex's song

[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
Well, you can bump and grind
It is good for your mind
Well, you can twist and shout
Let it all hang out

[Chorus]
But you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, no, no

[Verse 2]
Well, you can tear the plane
In the falling rain
I drive a Rolls-Royce
'Cause its good for my voice

[Chorus]
But you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, no, no (Yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
Well, you can bump and grind
It is good for your mind
Well, you can twist and shout
Let it all hang out

[Chorus]
But you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, you won't fool the children of the revolution
No, no, no (No way)

[Outro]
Yeah
Wow
				

ZZ Top's song

[Verse 1]
Do you remember back in 1966?
Country Jesus, hillbilly blues, that's where I learned my licks
From coast to coast and line to line, in every county there
I'm talkin' 'bout the outlaw X is cuttin' through the air

[Chorus]
Anywhere, y'all, everywhere, y'all
I heard it, I heard it, I heard it on the X
I heard it on the X

[Verse 2]
We can think time to feel stepped across the line
With lots of watts he took control, the first one of its kind
So listen to your radio most each and every night
'Cause if you don't, I'm sure you won't get to feeling right

[Chorus]
Anywhere, y'all, everywhere, y'all
I heard it, I heard it, I heard it on the X
I heard it on the X, go

[Guitar Solo]
Hahahaha, ow
Yeah

[Outro]
Anywhere, y'all, everywhere, y'all
I heard it, I heard it, I heard it on the X
I heard it, I heard it, I heard it on the X
				

Earth, Wind & Fire's song

Every man has a place, in his heart there's a space
And the world can't erase his fantasies
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship, Fantasy
All your dreams will come true, right away
And we will live together, until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever, as one
Every thought is a dream, rushing by in a stream
Bringing life to our kingdom of doing
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship, Fantasy
All your dreams will come true, miles away
Our voices will ring together until the twelfth of never
We all, will live forever, as one
Come see victory, in the land called, "Fantasy"
Loving life, a new decree
Bring your mind to everlasting liberty
As one
Come to see, victory in a land called, "Fantasy"
Loving life, for you and me, to behold, to your soul is ecstasy
You will find, other kind, that has been in search for you
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize it's your life, now in review
And as you stay for the play, fantasy, has in store for you
A glowing light will see you through
It's your day, shining day, all your dreams come true
As you glide, in your stride with the wind, as you fly away
Give a smile, from your lips, and say
I am free, yes I'm free, now I'm on my way
Come to see victory
In a land called, "Fantasy"
Loving life for you and me
To behold, to your soul is ecstasy
You will find other kind
That has been in search of you
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize, it's your life now in review (ahh-oh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
				

Roger Glover's song

Everybody's got to live together
All the people got to understand
So, love your neighbour
Like you love your brother
Come on and join the band
Well, all you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebrating
Come on and let your feelings show
Love is all, well love is all
Love is all, can't you hear the call
Oh, love is all you need
Love is all you need at the Butterfly Ball
Ain't you happy that we're all together
At the ball in nature's countryside
And although we're wearing different faces
Nobody wants to hide
Love is all and love is all and
It's easy, yes it's so easy
At the Butterfly Ball where love is all
And It's so easy
All you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebrating
Let your feelings show
Love is all, yes love is all at the Butterfly Ball
Love is big, love is small
Love is free, love is all
At the Butterfly Ball
When your back's to the wall
When you're starting to fall
You got something to lean on
Love is everything
It can make you sing at the Butterfly Ball
Love is all, I say love is all, yes love is all
At the Butterfly Ball
