"Hard Monkeys"
1971 Chrys-A-Lee Music Ltd.

Got no monkey on my back - and I'm never goin' to crack.
'Cause it's a good life, too good to lose;
But it's a hard world - with the junkie blues.

Got no streetcar called Desire - and I'll never light the fire.
'Cause it's a good life, too good to lose;
But it's a hard world - with the junkie blues.



"Have Mercy"
1975 Space Songs Ltd.

Have mercy on a child of God, oh yeah - searchin' to find you
Have mercy on this soul of mine, oh yeah - searchin' to find you

I keep on lookin', for the right road
Cause nothin' seems to show the way
So many roads, have mercy on this soul of mine - oh yeah
Searchin' to find you

Have mercy on a child of God, oh yeah - searchin' to find you
Have mercy on this soul of mine, oh yeah - searchin' to find you

I keep on pushin', down the highway - yeah
I go to where I've been before - still looks the same
Have mercy on a child of God, oh yeah - searchin' to find you



"Hear Me Calling"
1969 Chrysalis Music Ltd.

Hear me calling, hear me call on you;
Hear me calling, hear me call on you.
If you don't come soon - I'll know your love ain't true.

Hear me calling, hear me calling loud;
Hear me calling, hear me calling loud.
If you don't come soon - I'll be wearin' a shroud.



"Heartache"
1980 Space Songs Ltd.

Well I roam from town to town - and I travel out in style
All the people turn around - everybody runnin' wild
I was lookin' for adventure - I've been playin' everyday and everynight, Just to get it right !

It's just a heartache - sometimes it makes your heart break
Feel it for your own sake - just got to see it through

I could live a life of ease - do anything I please
Put my feet up every night - but for me it isn't right
Cause I got to keep on pushin' - I'm pushin' cause I still got to fight
Just to get it right !

It's just a heartache - sometimes it makes your heart break
Feel it for your own sake - I got to see it through

It's just a heartache - keep workin' til your back breaks
I've taken all the hits I can take - it's nothin' but a heartache
It's nothin but a heartache

It's just a heartache - keep workin' til your back breaks
I've taken all the hits I can take - it's nothin' but a heartache
It's nothin but a heartache - Heartache !



"Heart Of Stone"
1986 Space Songs Ltd.

There she stood in the street
Looking fine, looking sweet
But I knew that girl from way back when
I was young, had my pride
I was taken for a ride
And my heart skips a beat every time that I see her again

She's got a heart of stone but she looks so good
Like a movie star out of Hollywood
She's got everything she wants, she's never alone.
She's got a heart of stone and it's all too much
She will let you look but you must not touch
You'd better leave her alone, she's got a heart of stone

If you see her go by, with that look in her eye
Don't be fooled by the game she will play
Thought that I was the one, then one day she was gone
And she took all I had and she threw all my loving away

She's got a heart of stone but she looks so good
Like a movie star out of Hollywood
She's got everything she wants, she's never alone.
She's got a heart of stone, I was in her spell
I was sinking fast in a wishing well
You'd better leave her alone, she's got a heart of stone

She's got a heart of stone but she looks so good
Like a movie star out of Hollywood
She's got everything she wants, she's never alone.
She's got a heart of stone and she's cold as ice,
Making promises of a paradise
You'd better leave her alone, she's got a heart of stone
!


"Here They Come"
1971 Chrys-A-Lee Music Ltd.

Here they come, and they fly with the power of the sun.
Here they come, and they're going to touch everyone.
Far, far - have they come.

Here they come, and the fire on their wings does-n't burn.
Here they come, and they know everything we must learn.
Round, round we must turn.

Watch out you sinners, don't you know that your time has come ?
watch out you winners, now it's the same for everyone.

Here they come, and the stars in their eyes seem to glow.
Here they come, and the fear in our hearts starts to go.
Now, now, now we all know.



"Highway Of Love"
1989 Space Songs

It was late, I was runnin' good, did'nt have a place to stay
I did'nt stop, I was feelin' so good, thought I'd try to make it to L.A.
There was a girl, she said "I'll put you up,
any time you're passing through"
Got my book - and I looked her up,
she said "I'll be waiting here for you."

I was runnin' with the devil, he was by my side.
Runnin' with the devil, what a hell of a ride.
Keep your motor runnin', I'm a headin' for you.
Better move on over comin' through

I was hot, I was burnin' up the rubber,
I was hot ! I was thinking of my lover.
I was hot ! I was burnin' up the highway of love.

It was late, dawn was comin' up, California comin' into view.
Won't be long, and I'll wake you up,
I can't wait, I'll soon be there with you.

I was hot, I was burnin' up the rubber,
I was hot ! I was thinking of my lover.
I was hot ! I was burnin' up the highway of love.

I was hot, I was burnin' up the rubber,
I was hot ! I was thinking of my lover.
I was hot ! I was burnin' up the highway of love.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah !

How Do You Do It
(2003 Space Songs)

Working at the shop, always on the go
when it's time to stop, going to a show
when the show is over, never miss a beat
straight to a dancing club
you're always on your feet

Tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
I can't keep up with you

Saturday's the same, running to and fro
babe it's such a shame, always on the go
ain't got time for love. always on the speed
baby what you're trying to do
just save some time for me

Tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
I can't keep up with you
you, you, you, you (yeah)

Rocket driven girl, never gonna stop
always in a whirl, bop until you drop
going to a rave, staying up all night
flying like a shootong star
and burnign up so bright

Tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
I can't keep up with you
(can't keep up with you no more)

Tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
I can't keep up with you

Tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
tell me how do you do it
I can't keep up with you
you, you, you, you (yeah)



"How Many Times"
1974 Space Songs Ltd.

How many times does it happen - how many times would it be ?
How many times does it happen - how many times could it be ?

I remember baby, the things you've done,
and you told me it was wrong
I always thought if you was having fun,
you would know we got along

How many times does it happen - how many times would it be ?
How many times does it happen - how many times could it be ?

I never thought that you would live around,
until you told me we were through
I never thought that you would let me down,
I never thought that it was true

How many times does it happen - how many times would it be ?
How many times does it happen - how many times could it be ?
