Tracks



01. Space Invader

You know, this planet has been in trouble
For a thousand years we've all been blind
There's no trime to waste, give up the struggle
We must embrace our host, give it up for

Space... invader
He comes from distant galaxies
Space... invader
He stands before you to set you free

No rhyme or reason, no peace of mind
The earth's survival will coincide
The danger is near, of his arrival
We must accept out fate, give it up for

Space... invader
Now gaze upon the space invader

He comes to save us from light-years away
Our space invader knows we've lost our way
Destined for greatness our race will survive
Behind his majesty we'll be united
And know the meaning of life

The time is now, no need to worry
Just put your trust in him, give it up for

Space... invader
He comes from distant galaxies
Space... invader
He stands before you to set you free

Space... invader
Now gaze upon the space invader
Space... invader
Remember, there's no one greater
Space... invader

03. I Wanna Hold You

I can't escape, emotions tell the tale
It's give and take, love isn't always fair
People will stop and stare
What we've got we don't have to share

No damage done, there's more to come
And I've been dreaming so long...

I wanna hold you
I really must confess
Because I told you
You're not like the rest
Oh no!

Now we've begun, something that's oh so real
We're in for fun, something we can't conceal
Just forget what people say
It doesn't matter anyway

No damage done, there's more to come
I've just been dreaming so long...

Oh no!
You're not like the rest (alright)
Listen to me baby
Girl, girl, here it comes

Every time I look at you
I know just what I want to do
No damage done, let's have some fun
I'm tired of dreaming now!

I wanna hold you
I really must confess
Because I told you

04. Change

You find your life is not quite like what you thought it would be
And you don't know that you can hold the world in your hand
And all the people surrounding you just want what you have
So you've been weak up until now that your soul has been stripped...
Naked in the sand

Pick yourself up, and change
Pick yourself up and change

You couldn't see their faces as they were calling your name
Your head was spinning from the laughter of strangers to you
You turned around, your head in your hands as confusion sets in
Was just madness you felt, no more hearts will be broken...
I give you my command

Pick yourself up, and change
Pick yourself up
All the people around were dying for pleasure, not holding your hand, your hand, your hand
You see my sadness, and pain but all about you thought was the ride, the ride, the ride

You took for granted, my treasures were given to unworthy hands
You lived a lie, and you still want pity from me
I lost my patience, it's the changing that counts, now open your eyes
Your time is over now, no more wishes to grant your unsavoury demands

Pick yourself up, and change
Pick yourself up and change
C'mon, pick yourself up, and change

05. Toys

Drivin' my Jag, shootin' my guns
Take me to Vegas, I wanna have fun
I wanna shoot craps, I wanna play cards
Stay up late, 'til the sun come up
I wanna play with the toys I like
Not stop until I've had enough

Toys (Toys)
For big boys (boys)
You'd be surprised
The joy they bring

The open road, we take down the top
But don't look back and forget to stop
We could go fishin' and take a speed boat
Jump across waves and surf 'til we drop
I wanna play with the toys I like
Play hard until I've had enough

Toys (Toys)
For big boys (boys)
I end up feelin' like a king

I wanna sky dive, feel the rush
Climb a mountain straight to the top
I wanna play with the toys I like
Keep playin' until I've had enough

Toys (Toys)
For big boys (boys)
And I end up feelin' like a king

Toys (Toys)
For big boys (boys)
And I end up feelin' like a king

06. Immortal Pleasures

I've seen it all
There's no more need for fighting
And I've had pleasures
Not known by mortal man
I've seen every place
There's no more need for searching
I've got my guitar
So catch me if you can

Immortal Pleasures
Immortal plans
An Immortal life
Fulfilled my demands

I saw Olympus
Not blinded by the light
Majestic kingdoms
Delight at my command
I pushed my limits
Protected by the powers
I was a king
But returned to be a man

Immortal Pleasures
Immortal plans
An Immortal life
Fulfilled my demands
Immortal women, oh yeah!
Immortal love
Immortal Pleasures
From powers up above

The tree of life has many branches
We're all connected, binded by love
The Gods enjoy our many choices
If we choose wisely then we have won

I reached the top
There's no more need tor climbing
I was a boy
With my Immortal dream

Immortal Pleasures
Immortal plans
An Immortal life
Fulfilled my demands
Immortal women, oh yeah!
Immortal love
Immortal Pleasures
From powers up above

Immortal Pleasures
Immortal plans
An Immortal life
Fulfilled my demands

07. Inside The Vortex

Travelin' through the ages
Moving through space and time
Catching a glimpse of
What I can find

Inside the Vortex
It's so sublime

My life's gone through changes
Somehow I survived
My universe faded
But now I'm alive

Inside the Vortex
Baby, it's so sublime

Passing by constellations
Seeing comets fly by

Inside the Vortex
Yeah, it's so sublime
Within the Vortex
I'll make you mine

Inside the Vortex
Baby, it's so sublime
Within' the vortex
You know I feel alive

09. Past The Milky Way

Now I'm past the point of no return
And my computer is tellin' me I'm lost
And I hope and pray that I'll see you
'Cause I'm no quitter, not at any cost

Now I'm runnln' out of oxygen
But I still got my guitar
Celestial bodies they surround me
I don't think I'll make Venus
'Cause I've traveled very far
Could we rendezvous on Mars?

I'd sail Past the Milky Way
Just to hold you in my arms

Since I met you everybody tells me
When we're together I'm a better man
And you helped me feel so strong again
When I'm with you I always do the best I can

Now I'm runnln' out of oxygen
But I still got my guitar
Celestial bodies they surround me
I don't think I'll make Venus
'Cause I've traveled very far
Could we rendezvous on Mars?

Now over and over again
All that matters is to see you smile, oh yeah!
I hope it's sooner than later
'Cause I'll be kissin' you in style, alright!

Now I'm runnln' out of oxygen
But I still got my guitar
Celestial bodies they surround me
I don't think I'll make Venus
'Cause I've traveled very far
Could we rendezvous on Mars?

10. Reckless

Reckless, in my youth
I didn't know if I was up or down
Senseless, and confused
Sometimes they'd find me in the lost and found
So helpless, tell the truth
Sometimes I'd fall and end up on the ground

Lookin' for truth with passion
Tryin' to be in fashion
Knowin' what's right and crashin'
Reckless in every way

Reckless, every day
I wasn't sure if things were black or while
Rejected, had to choose
Sometimes I didn't have a lot to say
So selfish, and confused
I'd turn the corner, then I'd lose my way

I'm lookin' for love in passing
Wonderin' whose ass I'm trashin'
Tryin' to be cool, but not caring
Reckless in every way

So helpless
And Reckless
So helpless
And Reckless
So helpless
And Reckless
So helpless
And Reckless

Helpless, tell the truth
I couldn't focus on the time of day
So Reckless, and confused
I got arrested 'cause I lost my way

I'm lookin' for love in passing
Wonderin' whose ass I'm trashin'
Tryin' to be cool, but not caring
Reckless in every way

I'm lookin' for love in passing
Wonderin' whose ass I'm trashin'
Tryin' to be cool, but not caring
Reckless in every way

11. The Joker

Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah!
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompitous of love

People talk about me, baby
They say I'm doin' you wrong when I'm doin' you right
Well, don't you worry baby
Don't worry
'Cause I'm right here, I'm right here, right here, right here at home

'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner
And play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run

You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
I really love your peaches, want to shake your tree
Lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time
Ooo-eee baby, I'll sure show you a good time

'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner
And play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one

Lots of people keep talking about me, baby
They say I'm doin' you wrong when I'm doing you right
Well don't you worry, don't worry, baby, don't worry mama
'Cause I'm right here, I'm right here, right here, right here at home

'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner
And play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one

'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner
I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner
And play my music in the sun
I'm a joker, I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one
