Late at night I'll be knocking
On your door
Late tonight I'll be calling
You can be sure
I'll be waiting
Standin' in the shadows once again
Sneakin', creepin'
Howling like a tom cat once again

Oh, there'll be nowhere
You can hide
When I take you
On the other side of midnight

You know I don't love you
But I love what you can do
Some more of that hot persuasion
This time it's (? ) just like you

Oh, there'll be nowhere
You can hide
When I take you
On the other side of midnight
I'll be knockin'
The other side of midnight
I'll be callin'
The other side of midnight
Knock, knockin'
The other side of midnight



I'm gonna take you
I'm gonna make you
At midnight, at midnight

Late at night
I'll be knock knock knockin'
On your door
I said late tonight I'll be callin'
You can be sure
I'm gonna take you
Oh, it's gonna hurt so good
I'm gonna make you do
What a bad girl should

Oh, there'll be nowhere to hide
When I take you
On the other side of midnight
The other side of midnight
I'll be knockin'
The other side of midnight
I'll be callin'
The other side of midnight
On the other side
I'll be waitin', I'll be callin'
The other side of midnight
I'll be knock knock
Knockin' at midnight

Everybody got somebody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint' none of their business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobody gives a damn for a
Single thing you say

I'm singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Here comes the thunder

Hide money in your pocket
Be nobody's fool
Always think of number one
That's my golden rule
Take care of business
Go for it with the best
Be strong enough to take it
Ain't no need to rest

I'm singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under


Hold on tight
Watch out for the thunder

Bad times make you cry
But the good times get you high

I can't stand it
I can't stand it no more

Somebody, everybody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint' nobody's business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobody's gonna listen
To a single word you say

Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Look out for the thunder

Stay on top
You've got to stay on top
Stand up and sing it
Stay on top
Take care of business
Stay on top

Feels so cold, so alone
An empty stage, no one home
I feel so strange, so scared
No point in screaming
I won't be heard
You're so cold, you're so cool
It's so dark in this tomb

Time has come so soon
And time takes no prisoners
Except in the womb
There's no way out, no escape
This silence is deafening
I have to cry out
You're so cold, you're so cool
It's so dark in this tomb

Roll away the rock
Roll the rock away

Set me free from this grave
Am I forgiven, can I be saved?
You've been so cold for so long
This silence is deafening
Was I so wrong?
You're so cold, you're so cool
It's so dark in this tomb

Roll away the rock
Take that rock and roll it

Roll away the rock
You gotta roll the rock away

This silence is deafening

You came on like an angel
I didn't see the evil in your eyes
I could see but I was blinded
Oh, believed your lies

You hit we with your promises
You shot me, I fell to the ground
Your promise of tomorrow
When I looked, you were
Nowhere to be found

You set me up right from the start
Stripped me of my dignity
You got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
You got me straight
Through the heart
You cut me and left me for dead

You promised me a heaven
Turned out to be one hell all the time
The truth that you're pretending
Was just a chorus of lies



You set me up right from the start
Strip me of my dignity
And got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
Got me straight through the heart
You cut me and left me for dead
You cut me and left me for dead

You came on like an angel
Just like an angel
You set me up

You got me straight
Through the heart
I never did stand a chance
Got me straight through the heart
You cut me, you left me
Straight through the heart
You never gave me a chance
Got me straight throught the heart
I'm bleeding, you're leaving
Got me straight through the heart

Ten thousand stallions runnin' wild
They dare to race the devil's child
The race is on, hold tight the reins
They shared a week of broken chains

Wheels turnin', wheels burnin'
See the eagles fly
Weekend warriors ...

Like shining knights
Of days gone by


They're born again
They'll never die

Wheels turnin', wheels burnin'
See the angels fly
Weekend warriors ...

Like silver lighting from the sky
These gold-clad horses thunder by

Weekend warriors ...
