1. Opening
  (M. Crenshaw)
 

Well it's all about rock,
we'll bring it right to your door
mmmm it's all about rock, we'll bring it right to your door
and we'll be going...(trippy noises)
just like we did before (scream)
So it's all about rock
It's all, all about rock
It's all about rock baby

2. Dime A Dozen Guy
  (M. Crenshaw/D. Cantor)
  I saw her Sunday
Down by the Breakers
She drove right by me
I was stunned to realize
That she was riding with
That dime-a-dozen guy

First they're at the Forum
Then they're at the drive-in
I asked my buddies
And they all said "It's no lie
She's tearin' up the town
With that dime-a-dozen guy"

Guess I was thoughtless, careless too
I disappeared on her it's true
Now I realize I wasted something
That I cared about
That's why I'm blue

He's not good-looking
At least I don't think so
I just can't figure
Any earthly reason why
A girl like her would choose
That dime-a-dozen guy

Is there something about him
That my eyes aren't seeing?
If I'm not mistaken
Then there's no way to deny
That I've been left in the dust
For a dime-a-dozen guy

Right now it's feeling pretty grim
To hang my heart out on this limb
Now I realize I wasted something
That I cared about
And she's with him

I saw her Sunday
down by the Breakers
She drove right past me
and smiled as she rode by
Another girl in love
With a dime-a-dozen guy

3. Television Light
  (M. Crenshaw)
  Television light
Shining through a hundred bedroom windows
I was out last night
Walking all around the streets that we know
Tales to tell are behind every door
No two are quite the same
You and I know a few of our own, that's for sure

Days and days have gone
But I still clearly can remember
a crowded avenue
on a Monday evening in November
On our way to your old place downtown
You held my hand tight
There was light and laughter and music all around

What I wouldn't wish for nearly came true
to throw your love away
was what I didn't want to do
It's written on my heart, the way I feel for you
to make your bitter tears fall
was what I didn't want to do
what I didn't want to do

Television light
Shining through a hundred bedroom windows
I went out last night
Walking all around the streets that we know
Sometimes love will bring you down one day
Then back up another day
Make you right, make you wrong, make you do it anyway

What I didn't wish for nearly came true
to throw your love away
was what I didn't want to do
I truly realize now what I already knew
to make your bitter tears fall
was what I didn't want to do
What I didn't want to do

Sometimes love will bring you down one day, and back up another day
make you right, make you wrong, make you do it anyway

What I wouldn't wish for, nearly came true
to throw your love away, is what I didn't want to do
It's written on my heart, the way I feel for you
to make your bitter tears fall, is what I didn't want to do
what I didn't want to do

4. Glad Goodbye
  (M. Crenshaw)
 

Our road, leads to another road, that ends at another road
that's long and wide
And I've been, waiting for the day to come
Everything's ready to go, waiting outside

I'm gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
It's way past time for a second thought
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
A few miles away from this place and time is what I want

We're going with the changing of the season
the ground is frozen and the sky is grey
It always got me in the wintertime
that desolate feeling that wouldn't stay away

We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
I won't be here next time the blues comes around
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
where the sunlight still remembers how to shine is where I'm bound

Got no rest last night wondering where the years have gone
Time never will stop and wait, well you can't be left to waste
and you know you've got to go, you gotta do it when you know
that what you thought you'd always loved
is one you're better off being rid of

We're going with the changing of the season
without much sadness, without much fear
What waits over the horizon is not like anything we'll ever find here

We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
it's way past time for a second thought
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
a few miles away is what I want
It's gonna be one glad goodbye, one glad goodbye
I won't be here
We're gonna say a glad goodbye, say a glad goodbye
It's way past time

6. Tell Me All About It
  (M. Crenshaw/R. Julian)
 

Only a month gone by now and rumors start to fly
Well I heard your name and I felt so defenseless
Now we're one on one in the light of the setting sun
You say it was nothing that I'd done
you were just restless

Tell me all about it
Did you grab somebody new?
Tell me all about it
Does he love you better than I do?
It's all a little clouded, this just came right out of the blue
On second thought maybe I don't want you
to tell me all about it

Tangled hands and feet
all the words you whispered sweet
It's all coming back now incomplete
Did you just fake it?

Now I do believe
that it's just like Adam learned with Eve
People can hide things up their sleeve
even when naked

aww Tell me all about it
Have you got somebody new?
Tell me all about it
Does he love you like I do?
It's all a little clouded
this just came out of the blue
on second thought maybe I don't want you
to tell me all about it

My mind's in an uproar
I don't know what to do or say
Been just like this all day
yeah I left myself wide open
I can't believe that it's gone this way

Now I do believe
that it's just like Adam learned with Eve
People can hide things up their sleeve
even when naked

Well tell me all about it
Have you got somebody new?
Tell me all about it
Does he love you like I do?
It's all a little clouded
this just came right out of the blue
on second thought maybe I don't want you
to tell me all about it

7. Ready Right Now
  (M. Crenshaw/B. Lloyd)
 

I'm standing on the sidewalk in the sunshine
Not all the time, but sometimes, the world looks fine
When you smile at me
That's all there is
Once I could only dream of days like this
No matter where we're going from here
I know this much, anyhow
I'm ready right now, right now

This is no rehersal, this is the one
And I swear, it won't be something casually done
With all and all of my energy,
Every bit of life that's left in me
I'm going to give you all that I have
All that time will allow
I'm ready right now, right now

When you came into my life
I was taken by surprise, it's true
I didn't know that I could ever
Feel like I feel when I look at you
In the sunshineWhen you shook me out of my sleep
I was trapped inside a bad, bad dream
Near the bottom of the bottom
Headed all the way down
Or so it seemed

I don't know what the future might hold
But I'll try to never falter or loose control
With all and all of my energy
Every bit of life that's left in me
I'm gonna give you all that I have
All that time will allow
I'm ready right now

9. T.M.D.
  (M. Crenshaw/B. Demaine)
  I watch you cross the street among the midday crowd
You wouldn't hear me if I called your name so I wait
I love to be downtown, that's where the good times are
and when your eyes find mine I see that look on your face

Every once in a while I know something to be nothing else but true
And right here and now I really love you
truly, madly, deeply I do

We catch the silver skyline reflected on the water
The autumn air is filled with memories and possibilities
And how the hours fly by, cause life is all around us
So much to talk and laugh about between you and me

Oh it feels so fine to know you got something more
than what you might dream of
And right here and now I know that I'm
truly, madly, deeply in love
uh huh, mmmm

I love to be downtown, that's where the goodtimes are
and when your eyes find mine I see that look on your face

Every once in a while I know something to be nothing else but true
And right here and now I really love you
truly, madly, deeply I do

Oh it feels so fine to know you got something more
than what you might dream of
And right here and now I know that I'm
truly, madly, deeply in love

10. Right There In Front of Me
  (M. Crenshaw)
 

You got my heart there's no doubt, thought I was smart
now I've gotta laugh about how much I didn't know
just a little while ago

You were someone that I could call a friend
That I would turn to every now and then
That's all I thought there was when it came to the two of us

Oh it seemed like just another night
the same old crowd, and then suddenly
your eyes sent a message to mine
and I saw love right there in front of me

Until there and then maybe you're always been
too close for me to see
right there in front of me

The room was dark, it was kinda late
I walked towards you I didn't hesitate
Not even momentarily, and you were standing next to me

Oh something strong caught me by surprise
it took my senses straight to paradise
The first time we kissed I never, never felt like this

Oh it seemed like just another night
the same old crowd, and then suddenly
your eyes sent a message to mine
and I saw love right there in front of me

'Til right there and then maybe you've always been
too close for me to see
right there in front of me
right there, right there
right there in front of me

You got my heart there's no doubt, thought I was smart
now I've gotta laugh about how much I didn't know
just a little while ago

Oh it seemed like just another night
the same old crowd, and then suddenly
your eyes sent a message to mine
and I saw love right there in front of me

Until there and then maybe you've always been
too close for me to see
right there in front of me
oh right there, right there
right there in front of me
right there, right there
right there in front of me
