"Love Delicatessen"
I was feeling lowdown and blue
I didn't have what I wanted
That's when I saw the sign
Outside this place and it promised salvation (mmm)
I gave the waitress my order
She said it'd be just a minute
I was looking' at the pies
You know I was hungry
But not for food
(hoo hoo hoo oh woo)
At the love delicatessen
Oh yeah
I'll meet you at the love delicatessen
OK
oh!
Outside the summer sun beat down
On a lusty summer day
Inside the people still had on their shades
They were all in the dark
I heard a bell ring
And my order was up
I couldn't believe the size of the portion
Man my eyes lit up
Here it comes
At the love delicatessen
Oh yeah
I'll meet you at the love delicatessen
OK
Go!
Woohoo Whoo Hoo Whoo Hoo
Got love
Love
Love
Love
Got love
Love
Love
Mmm.. I think I've had my fill
Went to the front counter
To pay the bill
Oh and by the way
Give me one of those cherry life savers (mmm)
And the summer sun beat down
So hard and I was on my way Hey hey heyeyeah
From the love delicatessen
Love delicatessen
Ill meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
Today
At the love delicatessen
OK
Ill meet, meet you at the love delicatessen
Oh yeah
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen
OK
Ill meet you at the love delicatessen
Today
Ill meet, I'll meet you at the love delicatessen
OK

"Video Killed The Radio Star"
I heard you on my wireless back in '52
Lying awake intent on tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
oh-a-oh
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machines on new technology
And now I understand the supernova scene
oh-a-oh
You met your children
oh-a-oh
What did you tell them
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
Whoa!
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember, the jingles used to go,
oh-a-oh
You were the first one
oh-a-oh
You were the last one
Video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
too far!
Allright!
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
S puts all the blame on VCR
You are, the radio star
You are the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed that radio star yes it did.

"Mobile Home"
(wow, allright, hey, woo)
A tiny turtle in a can
I dig a living room in the sand
Poke a toe through a hole in the floor
Floor!
And I ramble on some more
Ramble on!
Mobile home
My mobile home
My mobile home
I take easy, small and slow
I hang around 'till its time to blow
I take easy, small and slow
Slow
Shave away to lighten my load
Lighten me load!
Mobile home..... My mobile home
My mobile home
Mobile home... Go!
Hit the road
Ahhhh yeah
Ha!
Whoo!
Ha!
(ah that feels good)
(yeah, woo, ah)
Tusan highway Pebble Beach
Alabama's just out of reach

On a mountain top!
Mobile home..... My mobile home
My mobile
Mobile home..... My mobile home
I got mobile home

Mobile home..... My mobile home

"Japan"
Big shiny jet plane in the sky
Please drop us off as we fly by
We're an American band
And everything is rocking' out of control
When we hit Japan
Faxes from the viewers on TV
Kareoke hokey-pokey on the screen
I Dig my toes into the Pacific sand
And everything is rocking' out of control
When we hit Japan
When we hit Japan
When we hit Japan
Add 20 tons of Sushi-loving' fun
(Yum yum)
The guinea line will thank you one by one
(Arigato)

And everything is rocking' out of control
When we hit Japan

"Sunshine"
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Every time I see you
Every time I see you
Every time
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Ooh.....
And I want to be near you
And I want to be where you are
You're a steak and I spear you
You sell beers and a sparkle star
Nestled between a worm and rock
Snuggle it down for sleep time
Long lazy afternoon spent shearing poodles in the park
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Every time I see you
Every time I see you
Every time
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Ooh.....
And I want to be near you
And I let you to dance on my feet
If I squint I can hear you
Playing all day long in the street
I look for your race car
Out on the highway
Then you go zooming by me
In your special zooming lane
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Every time I see you
Every time I see you
Every time
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
You're the one.. you're the sunshine
Ooh.....
You're the one
(baby cry)
You're the one

"Back Porch (live)"
Yeah!
Drum solo.. drum solo!
Phil Rott!
Ladies and gentlemen.. Mr Phil Rott
Allright here's a song that we actually know
And we actually made it up
So I hope you actually enjoy it
and it goes actually like this
Go!
Happy with no teeth, I'm happy here in hibernation
Slurpin' on a peach, I'm starin' at the situation
Kitty at my foot, meowin' out a conversation
Rockin' back 'n' forth, that's my only destination
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that.....
Sing yeah!
Got a two-string on my lappy, its total subsonic vacation
Got chicken on the drums, poundin' out a perfect prescription
Twenty little worms, all pluged into amplification
Fifteen hundred bass drum luggin' bug-eyed monkeys
All arriving at the station
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that.....
Yeah, woo! Oh whoa, allright, woo hoo.
I'm old.. I'm an old man
I took all my money
And I bought myself a little shacky-condominium outside of Syndey,
Australia
I decided to retire here in Australia
Because it's so gosh-damn beatuiful
I love it so tenderly
So much it's just home
All of a sudden out for underneath the trees
Come a bunch of little chickies
And the buckets and the monkeys
With the one-string, no-string string, two-string guitars
"Hey Chris wanna jam?"
Sure, why not!
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me me!
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that.....
Oooooooh, ahhh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

"Tiki Lounge God"
I had a girl and she did me wrong
I didn't let that kind of shit go on too long
Split the clouds and divided the sea
Showed the evil girl how nasty the tiki god could be
She didn't call no more nor bother me
My little tiki god make sure I'd live in peace
One day I read they found a body in the river
Tiki God, make me shake, make me shiver
I got a Tiki God... saves me... I got a Tiki God
When Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble
Had no idea it would cause so much trouble
When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean
There was a rumble, an awful commotion
Don't ask me how, but the tiki found Bobby
He thought the idol was some Hawaiian hobby
Turned out the god was mean and vicious
Didn't respond to Bobby's three wishes
He had a Tiki God... saves him... he had a Tiki God
So when you're caught up in an evil plot
Your life's in danger and you can hear the shots
Your head is spinning and you're fading fast
How long do you think the kind of fun can last
Your luck will change with a simple motion
I found my idol in a bottle on the ocean
Splits the clouds and divides the sea
And shows those evil guys how nasty those tiki gods can be
You got a Tiki God... saves you... You got a Tiki God

"Teenage Girl"
They took a hot-rod motor and they put it in her heart
It's a dream location but she's tearing it apart
Tongue-tied and twelve
Staring up at perfect pearls
He's 13, she's 13
She's a teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Skin the surface like a Mach 5 flower
Fiberglass is shaking and it shatters from the power
It's crush and blow
When the engine overflows
That motor's pride
Just say goodbye to Water World
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Teenage girl
Tongue-tied and twelve
Staring up at perfect pearls
He's 13, she's 13
He's 13, Teenage girl
He's 13, she's 13
He's 13, she's 13
Teenage girl
He's 13, she's 13
He's 13, she's 13
Teenage girl
He's 13, she's 13
He's 13, she's 13
Teenage girl
He's 13, she's 13
He's 13, she's 13
Teenage girl
Teenage girl

"Slip Away"
I had a girl
Yeah.. had is the word
I tried to hold on
But it was pretty absurd
She said she loved me
And I said I loved her too
But we weren't having any fun
So what could I do
I let her slip away...
Away....
I let her slip away...
Away...
I had a car
Yeah.. the color was blue
It kept breaking down
So what could I do
I put an ad in the paper
You know I called it a steal
And then this guy came to see it
And we struck a deal
I let it slip away...
Away....
I let it slip away...
Away...
I had a thought
You know I thought it a lot
I thought I was smart
But now I know that I'm not
I let it slip away...
Away....
I let it slip away...
Away...
I let it slip away...
Away....
I let it slip away...
Away...

"Tremolo Blooz"
(1, 2, 3…)
Tremolo Blooz, ain't got nothing to lose.
Ain't got nothing but my tumbling bumbling blues…
Put my puppy head on down
Friends came out, first when I was born
I bent down to catch a rose and I caught a thorn
Hey miss monkey, how'd you get so blue?
Monkey looked up with her teary eyes and said I've been missing you…
She's got those tremolo blues,
Ain't got nothing to lose
Ain't got nothing but my stumbling bumbling blues
(yeah hoo)
(kick it out)
(weeeee)
Well, hello chicky, you've been packed away
For nine months and a cold December day.
Your yellow body's crumbling what'll we do.
Here's a microphone chicky sing whatever you choose…
Go sing those tremolo blues,
Ain't got nothing to lose
He ain't got nothing but those tumbling bumbling blues
Chicky!
Wooooooooooooo!
Yee Haw!
Somebody forgot the tremolo fiddle
(Allright listen up)
My friend froggie
Collapsed backstage
He's face down in a pile of cocaine
The rocker doctor, said he had the flu
But froggie felt it deep inside he knew exactly what he had to do…..
He sing those tremolo blues,
He ain't got nothing to lose
He ain't got nothing but those tumbling bumbling blues
From his froggie head on down to his puffy little..
From his froggie head on down to his puffy little..
From his froggie head on down to his puffy little shoes!

"Cleveland Rocks"
(hey)
3, 4
3, 4
3, 4
3, 4
All this energy calling' me
Back where it comes from
It's such a crude attitude
It's back where it belongs
All the little kids growing up on the skids
Are going "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Jumping Jene Jene is Moving James Dean
Going "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Mamma knows but she don't care
She's got her worries too
Seven kids and a phony affair
And the rent is due
All the little chicks with their crimson lips
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Living in sin with a safety pin
Going "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
I've got some records from World War II
I play 'em just like me granddad do
He was a rocker and I am too
Oh "Cleeeveland rocks!"
"Yeah Cleeeveland rocks!"
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!
Cleveland rocks!
(Ohio!)

"Lump (Live)"
Hello everybody
Allright!
How.. ooh.. How's it goin'?
So they tell me that everybody down on the floor bought
Our CD to get down on the floor
Thanks very much for buying the CD
Give yourselves a big round of applause
Shame on you people up there
Alright
Here's rock song
Lump sat alone in a boggy marsh
Totally motionless except for her heart
Mud flowed up into Lump's pyjamas
She totally confused all the passing piranhas
She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
She might be dead
Lump lingered last in line for brains,
And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane
Small thing's so sad that birds could land
Is Lump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band?
She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
She might be dead
Lump was limp and lonely and needed a shove
Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love
She spent her twenties between the sheets
Life limped along at subsonic speeds
She's Lump, she's Lump
She's in my head
She's Lump, she's Lump, she's Lump
I do believe that she's dead
(Dead as a doornail)
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so, yeah
Is this Lump out of my head, I think so
And that's all I have to say about that
