You Better Run
(Only released as a single - 1966 as the N'Betweens)
F. Cavaliere & E. Brigati
What you trying to do to my heart
What you trying to do to my heart
You fool around you're telling lies
You're going round with other guys
What you trying to do to my heart
Chorus:
You better run
You better hide
You better leave my side
What you trying to do to my soul
What you trying to do to my soul
Everything I had was young, now
I'm closing all the doors
What you trying to do to my soul
Chorus
I love you girl I love you so
Can't you see don't you know
I can't stand your alibis
You're telling lies drive me wild
What you trying to do to my head
What you trying to do to my head
Now I'm going draw that line
You're not going take my mind
What you trying to do to my head

My life is natural
(B-side of "Cuz I luv you" - 1971)
Holder
I played the sands of time and I loved and lost,
they give their bodies to two time horse,
they gambled every thing they got
a greedy mind cut out the cards.
They even loved with another man's wife
They even loved her with other men,
They also drank a lot of wine
some men have even had a good time
My life is natural
My life is natural
My life is natural
My life is natural
Maybe tomorrow a change in the life
of the man in the streets gonna come
Maybe tomorrow - hope it's tomorrow.
You got the sands of time and got `em high,
They've done their best to wreck their mind
Instead of joke they told a lie,
They started war so men could die now.
They try to suss their bodies evil
And what is good take a mind brighter than mine
To start to setting the word to right
Would take another Christ now.
Candidate
(B-side of "Look wot you dun" - 1972)
(Lea, Powell)
See him all alone,
No one seems to like him, he's uncool,
No one seems to like the way he rules,
See them all alone,
Talking of the secrets of the moon,
Spending hard-earned money they'll just lose.
Chorus
What we really want is some way to adjust,
All the values that we have been left to trust,
I just can't believe they are real, very real,
Far from real
See them on their own,
See their cartoon faves in the news,
Storming from the house in ones and twos,
Can you hear them cry?
Making accusations to each other,
Campaigning for the mark of a young mother.
Chorus
R E P E A T
What we really want is some way to adjust,
All the values that we have been left to trust,
I just can't believe
They're real, very real,
Far from real,
See them all alone
See them all alone.
Wonderin' Y
(B-side of "Take me back 'ome" - 1972)
Noddy Holder & Jimmy Lea
Here I am in the same old clothes,
Lookin' back on my life,
Cos I'm left alone,
Left out here without a home.
Take no chance read between the lines,
Don't accept her way,
when she always cries,
Just read between the lines.
Chorus
I tried to lover you now I'm here
Takin' things as I find them,
Now I'm here, wastin' time,
Thinkin of me,
Lookin' back on my life,
Wonderin' why.
It's hard to see and to understand,
Just-a what its like,
To be pushed around,
Kickin' stone along the ground.
I don't think it will ever change,
Can I find a way
To the front again,
And have another chance to spend,
My life with you and now I'm here
Kill 'em All at The Hot Club Tonight
(B-side of "Skweeze me pleeze me" - 1973)
By Holder & Lea
You'll get over me, I'll get over you
The only time to meet is when we really fancy
We talk quite a lot, we sleep on and off
The last thing I remember was the TV dancing
You walk on the right, I walk on the left
The only thing to say will be a hello maybe
We had lots of fun, we wrote in the sand
You keep on throwing things at me and I believe baby
Chorus
You can smile like you did before
Keep your souvenirs upon your bedroom wall
Everyone gets silly, hot blood can't get chilly
We'll kill 'em at the hot club tonite
You'll get over me, I'll get over you
The only time we'll meet is when we really fancy
A ride in my car, pick up my guitar
You think that saying sorry is the only answer
You walk on the right, I walk on the left
You look the other way in case I see you blushing
We fell down the stairs, went head over heels
The state that we were in how come you had me rushin'
Chorus
You can smile like you did before
Keep your souvenirs upon your bedroom wall
Everyone gets silly, hot blood can't get chilly
We'll kill 'em at the hot club tonite
She did it To Me
(B-side of "Bangin' man" - 1974)
By Holder & Lea:
Anytime you feel like you're down
Anytime you want a friend around
Cos I knew that soon we'd fall
Everyday has said it all
And I've landed with my two feet on the ground
CHORUS:
She can read in your eyes
All the truths, all the lies
She did it to me, she did it to me
She can read how you're made
In the light, in the shade
She did it to me, she did it to me
Anytime you feel a little pain
Anytime you want to talk again
Cos I knew that soon we'd dry
Everyday will tell you why
And for old times sake we'll meet up in the rain
-Break-
Cos I knew you hadn't planned
Everyday so understand
When you're tired of sugar dad will I be here
Six days on the road
(Original version of 'When the chips are down')
(Holder/Lea)
We're gonna race up the motorway
And rock 'n' roll the night away
In every town
You'd better lock up your daughters
Because they'll do what they oughta
When hit the town.
If you want to feel the noize
From your head to your feet
Mama mama weer all crazee now
So get off your seats
The ceiling's gonna fall
When we start to shake the walls
And watch us bring them down.
Chorus:
Six days on the road
Six days on the road
We're getting fish 'n' chips for dinner
Every day we're getting thinner
On the road.
Six days on the road
Six days on the road
Can you tell its getting to ya
Is the music going through ya
On the road.
You've gotta really feel the noize
And all the girls can grab the boys
On the road.
We're a rock 'n' rollin' band
And we're the best band in the land
On the road.
Two Track Stereo - One Track Mind
(B-side of "Run runaway" - 1984)
Holder/Lea
With her one track mind
With her one track mind
She was a hooked on two track stereo
With her one track mind woh-ho-oh
Well she always had lousy timing
But she'd like me to love to easy
From wearing headphones woh-ho-oh
Wearing headphones yeah-yeah-yeah
They get in the way of talking
And it don't sound the same
When you have to shout sweet nothing's woh-ho-oh
To her headphones oh-ho-ho-ho
Chorus
With her one track mind
The brain in her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo
With her one track mind woh-ho-oh
Yeah-hey-hey
She'd be late for a date on purpose
Making sure that she keeps you waiting
And while she makes up woh-ho-oh
Another new face woh-ho-ho-ho
She was always forgetting something
And she'd easily lose her head
And there'd be nowhere woh--ho-oh
To hang her headphones yeah-yeah-yeah
Chorus
With her one track mind
The brain in her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo
With her one track mind woh-ho-oh
Yeah-hey-hey
Oh well she always had lousy timing
Wearing headphones while she's out eating
Or out walking
Like a zombie yeah
Chorus
With her one track mind
That brain in her behind
She was hooked on two track stereo
With her one track mind woh-ho-oh
One track mind
What's going through her mind
You Boyz Make Big Noize
(Single released in 1987)
Holder & Lea
Hey Mr Man with a guitar in your hand
You're a rubber legged loony in a scruff-bag band
Hey there my man get that piggy off your back
A decent sort of chap wouldn't talk a load of C-rap
You with the mouth, you're heading on collision
Got to try and use your 20-20 vision
Hey Mr Clean, your shirt as white as snow
Do you wanna wreck a record on your DJ show
Chorus:
Well the wind don't blow, mama don't know
Say you got a lot to say
I know that you boyz make a big noize
Nobody get in the way
A wee drop of rocket fuel gets you in the guts
It's better than the nutter who nuts you in the nuts
One piece of drastic plastic is a hit
Then a master ghetto blaster drops you in the sh…
Chorus
Hello sailor, do you want to buy it
It ain't my cup of tea, don't knock it before you try it
Dirty shirts can smell really mean
Gleamo washes not only white, not only bright, but clean
Mr Man, do you really want to rock it
Funny money burns a hole in your pocket
Lady Danger looking good as ever
Can't afford her, need the never never
Chorus
Here came the the boys who make a lot a raw
Mama mama mama weer all crazee now
Lay Your Love On The Line
(B-side of "Radio wall of sound" - 1991)
By Hill & Hunt
I hear the sound of rock'n'roll thunder,
I think you know the spell that I'm under,
I feel that something's playin' crazy with my heart,
Up in the sky the heavens are fallin,
And all around the angels are callin',
You're movin' mountains, slowly tearin' me apart.
Chorus
Lay your love on the line
Lay your love on the line
Lay your love on the line
Say you're gonna be mine.
If I could be a man for all seasons,
Give me your answer, gibe me your reasons,
I'd like to be a king, if only for a day,
I've seen the world and I know what I'm after,
One look from you and my heart's a disaster,
And every dream I've dreamed
Would take your breath away
Red Hot
(B-side of "Universe" - 1991)
Hill/Hunt
Yeah she's hot
The girl is hot her heart's as cold as ice
She's got the lot she don't need no advice
A killer queen if she's not handled right
She's got a sting that'll last all night
The girl is hot don't you make no mistake
There ain't know time left for a second take
She moves around she's known in every place
You try it on she's laughing in your face
Red hot
She's looking for a big shot
Red hot
She's looking for a big shot
The girl is hot they call her vindaloo
Ready or not she's gonna boogaloo
A pretty thing and I ain't got no doubt
She'll chew you up and then she'll spit you out
I say red hot
She's looking for a big shot
The girl is red hot
She's looking for a big shot
The girl is hot her heart's as cold as ice
She's got the lot and she don't need no advice
A killer queen if she's not handled right
She's got a sting that'll last all night
I said red hot
She's looking for a big shot
The girl is red hot
She's looking for a big shot
She's red hot red hot
She's looking for a big shot
The girl is red hot red hot red hot
She's looking for a big shot
She's red she's hot she's hotter than hot
She's hot she's hot she's hotter than hot
She's hot she's hot she's hotter than hot
She's red hot and red hot and red hot
