     LITTLE THING CALLED LOVE 
     ------------------------ 
     See somebody walkin' down the street 
     Hangin' head and a-shufflin' feet 
     Don't take much to see 
     What they've been thinkin' of. 
     What makes you hypnotized? 
     What puts a tear in your eye? 
     What makes you have to choose? 
     What brings you the blues? 
     A little thing called love 
     A little thing called love. 
      
     Only love puts a tear in your eye 
     Only love makes you hypnotized 
     Only love makes you choose 
     Only love brings you the blues. 
      
     Wait a minute now, honey 
     Don't be sad 
     This may be the best love you ever had 
     That don't mean that you had enough 
     A little thing called love 
     A little thing called love. 
      
     Only love puts a tear in your eye 
     Only love makes you hypnotized 
     Only love makes you choose 
     Only love brings you the blues. 
      
     A little thing called love 
     A little thing called love. 
      
      
     COMPUTER AGE 
     ------------ 
     Cars and trucks 
     Fly by me on the corner 
     But I'm all right 
     Standin' proud before the signal 
     When I see the light 
     I know I'm more than just a number. 
     And I stand before you 
     Or else we just don't see the other 
     Computer age computer age 
     Computer age. 
      
     Bikes and vans 
     Fly by me on the desert 
     But I'm all right 
     Standing out here in the hot sun 
     When I see the light 
     I feel like more than just a number 
     And I stand before you 
     Or else we just don't see the other 
     Computer age computer age 
     Computer age. 
      
     Precious metal lines 
     Molded into highways 
     Running through me 
     So microscopically 
     Days and nights 
     Weeks and months and seasons 
     Rolling through me 
     So chronologically. 
     Computer age computer age 
     Computer age. 
      
     I need you 
     To let me know that there's a heartbeat 
     Let it pound and pound 
     And I'll be flying like a free bird 
     And you need me 
     Like ugly needs a mirror 
     And day by day 
     This horizon's getting clearer 
     Computer age computer age 
     Computer age.

     Let us throw off the chains that 
     Hold you down. 
      
     Transformer man, transformer man 
     Sooner or later you'll have to learn 
     The cause and effect

     HOLD ON TO YOUR LOVE 
     -------------------- 
     Hold on to your love

     The things you dream you might do, 
     Come true if you 
     Hold on to your love. 
      
     How long the day? 
     How dark the night spent apart?

     LIKE AN INCA 
     ------------ 
     Said the condor to the preying mantis 
     We're gonna lose this place just like we lost Atlantis 
     Brother we got to go sooner than you know 
     The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothin' showed. 
      
     Who put the bomb on the sacred altar? 
     Why should we die if it comes our way? 
     Why should we care about a little button 
     Being pushed by someone we don't even know? 
      
     Well. I wish I was an Aztec, 
     Or a runner in Peru 
     I would build such beautiful buildings 
     To house the chosen few 
     Like an Inca from Peru. 
      
     If you want to get high, build a strong foundation 
     Sink those pylons deep now and reach for the sky 
     If you want to get lost in the jungle rhythm 
     Get down on the ground and pretend you're swimmin'. 
      
     If you want to put ice in the lava river 
     First you must climb, then you must stand and shiver 
     Brother we got to go sooner than you know 
     The Gypsy told my fortune, the Gypsy told my fortune,  
     The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothing showed 
      
     Well I wish I was an Aztec, 
     Or a runner in Peru 
     I would build such beautiful buildings 
     To house the chosen few 
     Like an Inca from Peru. 
      
     Said the condor to the preying mantis 
     We're gonna lose this place just like we lost Atlantis 
     Brother we got to go sooner than you know 
     The Gypsy told my fortune, the Gypsy told my fortune,  
     The Gypsy told my fortune, she said that nothin' showed. 
      
     Who put the bomb on the sacred altar? 
     Why should we die if it comes our way? 
     Why should we care about a little button 
     Being pushed by someone we don't even know? 
      
     Well. I wish I was an Aztec, 
     Or a runner in Peru 
     I would build such beautiful buildings 
     To house the chosen few 
     Like an Inca from Peru. 
      
     I feel sad, but I feel happy 
     As I'm coming back to home 
     There's a bridge across the river 
     That I have to cross alone 
     Like a skipping rolling stone 
     Like an Inca. 
      
      
     IF YOU GOT LOVE 
     --------------- 
     When you walk in a room 
     You hold your head up high 
     You talk to people eye to eye 
     There's nothing to hide 
     You're feeling so complete inside 
     Your heart feels so complete inside 
     'Cause you got love. 
      
     If you got love 
     You know you got it 
     If you got love 
     Can't live without it 
     If you got love 
     The world you're walking in 
     Is at your command 
      
     You're staring in the face of scorn 
     You know your spirit can't be torn 
     You're living like a satellite 
     Maintain your distance through the night 
     You know that something isn't right 
     Your heart tells you it's just not right 
     'Cause you got love. 
      
     If you got love 
     You know you got it 
     If you got love 
     Can't live without it 
     If you got love 
     The world you're walking in 
     Is at your command. 
      
     If you got love 
     The world you're walking in 
     Is at your command 
     If you got love 
     To share 
     If you got love 
     To share.

     You know a man needs a woman right by his side. 
     A  man needs a woman right by his side. 
     She keeps him warm at night, he keeps her satisfied. 
      
     Soul of a woman, soul of a man 
     A perfect combination ever since the world began. 
     Soul of a woman

     AFTER BERLIN 
     ------------ 
     Just like a young boy running down the road 
     I'm singing out the same old song 
     Can't go back the way I started from 
     The road goes on and on 
     Won't you help me, help me, help me, help me,  
     Help me, help me, help me, help me,  
     Take my way on home 
     Help me make my way on home 
     After Berlin. 
      
     Lights are shining in the German sky 
     Cosmic walls between the moon and I 
     Don't know where I started from 
     So won't you take me, take me, take me, take me,  
     Take me, take me, take me, take me,  
     Just the way I am 
     Ah, take me, just the way I am 
     After Berlin. 
      
     All day cruising down the corridor 
     Seeing things I never seen before 
     Tomorrow morning in old Berlin 
     Where they lock you out or lock you in 
     Won't you save me, save me, save me, save me,  
     Save me, save me, save me, save me,  
     From the final day 
     Save me from the final day 
     After Berlin. 
      
     Just like a young boy running down the road 
     I'm singing out the same old song 
     I can't go back the way I used to go 
     The road goes on and on 
     Won't you help me, help me, help me, help me,  
     Help me, help me, help me, help me,  
     Find my way back home 
     Won't you help me make my way on home 
     After Berlin. 
      
     Help me, help me, help me, help me. 
     Help me, help me, help me, help me. 
      
      
     RAININ' IN PARADISE 
     ------------------- 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     Here come the clouds 
     There's a big wind blowin' through town 
     The rooster crows 
     But we're sleepin' in past dawn 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     When you chase the sun 
     Chase it half way around the world 
     The rainbow comes 
     When you least expect it to. 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
      
     Sun comes up 
     Sun comes up. 
      
     When you chase the sun 
     Chase it half way around the world 
     The rainbow comes 
     When you least expect it to 
     When you least expect it to 
     When you least expect it to 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise 
     It's rainin' in paradise
