End of the century

DO YOU REMEMBER ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO? (3:50)

Rock in, rock'n'roll radio
Let's go!

Do you remember Hullabaloo,
Upbeat, Shinding and Ed Sullivan too?
Do you remember rock 'n' roll radio?
Do you remember rock 'n' roll radio?

Do you remember Murray the K,
Alan Freed, and high energy?
It's the end, the end of the 70's
It's the end, the end of the century

Do you remember lying in bed
With your covers pulled up over your head?
Radio playin' so no one can see
We need change, we need it fast
Before rock's just part of the past
'Cause lately it all sounds the same to me

Will you remember Jerry Lee,
John Lennon, T. Rex and Ol' Moulty?
It's the end, the end of the 70's
It's the end, the end of the century

I'M AFFECTED (2:51)

When I look into your big brown eyes
And I feel like I'm in paradise
I want you by my side
'Cause I'm affected, 'fected
Yeah, I'm affected, 'fected
Well I'm affected
And all I want is you

Didn't know it a few years ago
But now I finally know
I want you by my side
I want you baby, baby, baby, baby

Yeah, I love you and I want you to know
Yeah, yeah, and that's for sure
I want you by my side

DANNY SAYS (3:06)

Danny says we gotta go
Gotta go to Idaho
But we can't go surfin'
'Cause it's 20 below

Sound check's at 5:02
Record stores and interviews
Oh, but I can't wait
To be with you tomorrow

Baby
Oho-ho-ho, we got nowhere to go
And it may sound funny, but it's true

Hangin' out in 100 B
Watching Get Smart on TV
Thinkin' about
You and me and you and me

Hangin' out in L.A.
And there's nowhere to go
It ain't Christmas if there ain't no snow
Listening to Sheena on the radio
Oh-ho oh-ho

CHINESE ROCK (2:28)

Somebody calls me on the phone
Say hey-hey-hey is Arty home
You wanna take a walk
You wanna go cop
You wanna go get some Chinese rock

I'm livin' on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm livin' on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawn shop

The plaster fallin' off the wall
My girlfriend cryin' in the shower stall
It's hot as a bitch
I should've been rich
But I'm just diggin' a Chinese ditch

THE RETURN OF JACKIE AND JUDY (3:12)

Jackie is a punk, Judt is a runt
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh-yeah

Jackie is a bookie, Judy's taking loans
They both came up to New York
Just to see the Ramones
Oh-yeah

And oh, I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why,
We won't forget her, oh no

Jackie's playing hooky
Judy's playing pool
They both got caught for cutting
Got to go to summer school
Oh-yeah

Jackie's scalping tickets
Judy's getting harassed
They both got kicked outside
Didn't have a backstage pass
Oh-yeah

And oh, I don't why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
And oh, I don't know why,
Don't know what's on her mind
I don't know, no, I don't know

But I can't stand to see her cryin'
She's still cryin', she ain't tryin'
She's going to get left behind
Nobody wants you, nobody wants you

LET'S GO (2:31)

Don't wanna study on the G.I. bill
Want more action, haven't had my fill
Mercenary, fight for anyone
Fight for money, fight for fun

Let's go

Got a country you wanna protect
But your army is more likely to defect
Hire my SMG with a full clip
On automatic it's guaranteed hit

Gee, it's kinda scary out here
Mosquitoes are happy tonight
Mommy, Daddy, can I please come home
Even if just for one night

Schocked how deadly we fight back
Troublemakers who attack
Mercenary, fight for anyone
Fight for money, fight for fun

BABY, I LOVE YOU (3:47)

Have I ever told you
How good it feels to hold you
It isn't easy to explain

And though I'm really tryin'
I think I may start cryin'
My heart can't wait an other day

When you kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta say:

Baby, I love you (come on baby)
Baby, I love you
Baby I love, I love only you

I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way

Oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name

Oh tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel the same

I CAN'T MAKE IT ON TIME (2:32)

I can't make it on time
I can't make it on time
I keep tryin' and tryin'
I can't make it on time

I can't hurry and you can't wait
It doesn't matter 'cause we're already late
I can't get off the telephone
It always rings when I'm alone

You gotta wait wait
'Cause you don't need no one
Wait wait
'Cause you know that I'm the one
You gotta wait
Hey, hey, hey

THIS AIN'T HAVANA (2:18)

I had no advantage over you
There was troubles and I had 'em too
Just 'cause you're so strung out
Don't mean it can't work out

Ba-ba-banana, this ain't Havana
Do you like bananas, ba-ba-bananas

Say you're a victim of society
You ask them for your mercy
Just like the cats in the garbage cans
When's their time coming, man

You better offer some resistence
You better give up on my insistence
Things happen overnight
You don't give up without a fight

You say you're poor and uneducated
You ain't gotta chance 'cause you're hated
You're on your way to life's promotion
You hinder it with emotion

ROCK 'N' ROLL HIGH SCHOOL (2:38)

Well, I don't care about history
Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
'Cause that's not where I wanna be
Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
I just wanna have some kicks
I just wanna get some chicks
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school

Well, the girls out there knock me out, you know
Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
Cruisin' around in my GTO
Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
I hate the teachers and the principal
Don't wanna be taught to be no fool
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school

Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun, oh baby

ALL THE WAY (2:29)

Feedback blasting out my ears
Makes me so high
I love all the monitor men
But why are they alive
The van is making me crazy
It's just like being in the navy

Doomsday, doomsday's coming - 1981
But until things blow
I'm gonna have some fun
The bubble's going to explode
Probably never live to get old

But I just wanna have some fun
Probably won't see no money
I just wanna have some fun
Before they throw me in the sanitarium

Feedback blasting out my ears
Makes me so high
I love all the monitor men
But why are they alive
Well Monte's making me crazy
It's just like being in the navy

HIGH RISK INSURANCE (2:08)

High risk insurance
The time is right
High risk insurance
The time is right

Got endurance, I was trained
I got my sights adjusted and my telescope aimed

Everybody wants an explanation
Got no love for the enemy nation

High risk insurance

You gotta fight to stay independent
I got my pride and I'm gonna defend it
