Heaven Tonight
Album - 1978 - Debaser id 56027

Mother told me, yes, she told me
That I'd meet girls like you.
She also told me, "Stay away,
You'll never know what you'll catch."
Just the other day I heard
Of a soldier's falling off.
Some Indonesian junk
That's going round.

(Chorus)
Your Mommy's all right,
Your Daddy's all right,
They just seem a little weird.
Surrender,
Surrender,
But don't give yourself away,
Hey, heeeeeey.

Father says, "Your mother's right,
She's really up on things.
Before we married, Mommy served
In the WACS in the Philippines."
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited
Old maids for the war.
But mommy isn't one of those,
I've known her all these years.

(Chorus)
Your Mommy's all right,
Your Daddy's all right,
They just seem a little weird.
Surrender,
Surrender,
But don't give yourself away,
Hey, heeeeeey.

Whatever happened to all this season's
Losers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking,
Here'd they disappear?
But when I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the couch.
Rolling numbers, rock and rollin',
Got my KISS records out.

(Chorus)
Your Mommy's all right,
Your Daddy's all right,
They just seem a little weird.
Surrender,
Surrender,
But don't give yourself away,
Hey, heeeeeey.

Away...
Away...

Surrender,
Surrender,
But don't give yourself away
Surrender,
Surrender,
But don't give yourself away
(repeat to fade)

Goin' to a party,
meet me on after school.
Well we're goin to a place
where the jive is really cool.

And if the band stops a playin'
There's a jukebox down the hall.
And with your blue dress on, your folks all gone.
You're sure to give the guys a ball.

CHORUS:


Get that real guitar boy shakin',
I'm a California man,
Dance right on till the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man.


Well I rocked my mamma so bad
This a woman's she's a making me mad.
Well I don't care if her legs start aching,
I'm a California man.

(from 2nd chorus on repeat last line 2x)
I'm a California man.

Oh my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name.
Well, my knees keep a knockin,
And my bow tie's bustin' out

When my feet start to fly,
An' my jeans slung way down low.
You know I'm back on my heels and it's making me feel
Like the king of rock n' roll

Chorus

Solo

Repeat 1st Verse

Chorus

Jump in my love car
Don't have to go very far
Just far enough to show you a thing or two

I can really swing
The best of everything
And i want to have a thing with you

High roller
What i buy is mine
And i always get the things that i choose
My, my, my, such a high roller
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you

I'm in the mood for love
You're all i'm thinking of
I'll make you feel alright when we're alone

I can really swing
The best of everything
And i want to have a thing with you

High roller
What i buy is mine
And i always get the things that i choose
My, my, my, such a high roller, is that you?
I knew you'd be here tonight
And i'll make it alright
I'll take real good care of you
I'll tuck you in tonight
And i'll make it alright
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you

Au revoir, auf wiedersehen
You won't see another morning
You won't see another evening
Good night
Buenas noches oh señor!
Señorita see ya later
Buenas noches bye-bye
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is a joke
And for you we sing this final song
For you there is no hope
Sayonara oh suicide hari kari
Kamikaze you won't
See another evening
Goodbye
Bye-bye so long, farewell
See you later....Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide

On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
Hey, mister on the radio
Please play my favorite song
The one where she didn't go away
Hey, mister on the radio
You're really my best friend
Please play my favorite song for me
Hey. mister on the radio
You're with me every day
And late at night i turn you on
On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
All of the rock and roll dj's
Got their fingers on the world
'cause they play the songs
That make you and me feel so good
Turn up your radios
And hear the music
On the radio
This song is playin'
When the radio's on
And you and me get crazy
Radio dj monologue:
One minute the back side of midnight
it's me captain gonzo ready to roll hot
wax anything you want to hear
All night its a balmy 73 degrees
in fog city, 71 in the valley 80 in santa cruz (?), but remember if you snooze you lose
I'm gonna hang with you,
i'll crank it on...
so let me know what you want to hear
phone lines are open now
You say it you know
i'm gonna play it and be ready
to win when i tell you to call in and whatever you do
Remember the phrase that pays
puts your brain on vacation
and let your toes take over
keep your pedal to the metal
I'll be back in sixty seconds,
in the meantime go with it,
go for it, go nuts, go completely wild.....

Stiff competition
If I go up you take me higher
Stiff competition
And when I'm down you take me higher

There's stiff competition all over the world
I screw you, you screw me, they screw us
Here we go again

Oh, but we have so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together, now

I looked hard in your eyes
I was in love at first sight
It took me minutes
You're still waiting
Waiting for your turn
You're turn it won't be long

Stiff competition
I work hard every day of my life
Stiff competition
Get it up you take me higher

Stiff competition
All over the world
The more I get, the more I like it
The bigger they are, the harder they fall, again

Oh, but we have so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together, now

I looked hard in your eyes
I was in love at first sight
It took me minutes
You're still waiting
Waiting for your turn
You're turn it won't be long

Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
