"Getaways"
Soliciting
All along the wall
Taking time
Don't do much at all
Come here everyday to waste the time we have
(We're not doing any harm)
I think they're getting mad about the things we do
(Oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Get away
(Get away)
Get out quick
(Get out quick)
You gotta make a break
(You gotta make a break)
Get away
(Get away)
Partying
In your folks' back yard
Feelin' good
Down on our guard
Then I hear a wail in the dead of night
(I think I hear the cops)
Gotta make our leave and get outta sight
[Chorus]
A prison cell
Ain't the place to be
An escape
The guards will fail to see
Clinging on a raft, going to the coast
I'll try to save my life, the thing I love the most
[Chorus]

"Hugo Stiglitz"
He was serious
A friend that I once knew so well
Quite delirious
He never had the time to tell
He be dangerous
If not for all the things he's done
He is one of us
And yet he never was the same
[Chorus]
He is
Gonna be so serious
He is
Gonna be so serious
He is
Gonna be so serious
He is
Gonna be so serious
Always humorless
Today is not the time to smile
Was quite perilous
He fears the days are all the while
I've been in distress
No one has seen my SOS
I have failed the test
And this is why he's gone to me
[Chorus]
He has disappeared
And no one knows where he's been placed
No one left to fear
It seems as though we've won the race
Didn't shed a tear
I couldn't bear to waste his time
He'll be always near
His spirit lives and drives us on
[Chorus]

Help! [Live]

Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh.

Where Eagles Dare
02:18

We walk the streets at night
We go where eagles dare
They pick up every movement
They pick up every loser
With jaded eyes and features
You think they really care
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby, babe
An omelet of disease awaits your noontime meal
Her mouth of germicide seducing all your glands
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby, babe
Let's test your threshold of pain
Let's see how long you last
That's happened in your rape
On bosoms of your past
With jaded eyes and features
You think they really care
Let's go where eagles dare
We'll go where eagles dare
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby
I ain't no goddamn son of a bitch
You better think about it baby, hey

Words Abound [Live]

Sometimes I speak these words without regard
They tend to get me into situations
I never took the time to think of what to say
I never thought of it this way
Sometimes I wish that I was disciplined
The times like these, they call for great decisions
I never took the time to listen to my friends
All of my sanity depends
On them
[Bridge]
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
Yes I know, Yes I know
[Chorus]
Words abound
They make that sound
I can't explain
This life I've found
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Sometimes the greatest of all partnerships
Stand naked in the spotlight unassuming
I never took the time to realize my way
This time I have no words to say

Shredding all the paper trails
Hoping that your secret's safe inside
But the people know the truth
You lied
You lied
There's someone looking through your trash
And some will snoop around while you are away
Scratch since you have heard them say
They say:
[Chorus]
We
Know you
Too well
Don't underestimate us now
Once your words were taken for granted
But we
Know you
Too well
Screaming down the avenue
Tires of your limo burn in the night
Your getaway begins
As you sigh
You sigh
Sitting back, you feel relieved
Thinking that you're safe when you're somewhere new
There's no hiding from the truth
The truth
[Chorus]
