Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man mad
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no one else had
Wah!

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire

Last night I was dreaming
I was locked in a prison cell
When I woke up I was screaming
Calling out your name (whoa)

And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me (the blame on me)
They wanna tell from my story
They want to hear my plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty (Guilty)
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused
Of love in the first degree

(Guilty) Of love in the first degree

Someday I'm believing
You will come to my rescue
Unchain my heart, you'll keep him
Let me start a new (uuuu)

The hours passed so slowly
Since they've thrown away the key (Away the key)
Can't you see that I'm lonely
Won't you help me plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty (Guilty)
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused
Of love in the first degree

(Guilty) Of Love in the first degree

(Guilty)
Of Love

(Guilty)
Of Love in

(Guilty) of Love

(Guilty) of Love in

(Guilty)
Of love in the first degree

And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me
They wanna tell from my story
They wanna hear my plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty (Guilty)
As a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused
Of Love in the first degree

Hopes dashed to the floor
Like shattered teenage dreams
Boys living next door
Are never what they seem

A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on the wall

Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
(Talking Italian)
Robert De Niro's waiting

I don't need a boy
I've got a man of steel
Don't come any closer
I don't wanna feel

Your breathing, your touching, but nothing's for free
I never want this to happen to me
Don't try to change me you're wasting your time
Now I've got something much better in mind

Robert De Niro's waiting

Make you cry

Hey yeah yeah

I was walking down the street
(Do-wah do-wah)
When this boy started following me
(Oh yeah)
Now I ignored all the things he said
(Do-wah do-wah)
He moved me in every way

With his collar unbuttononed
On my side he was struttin'

He was really saying something
(Saying something)
Really saying something
(Saying something)
Bop bop shoo be do-wah
Bop bop shoo be do-wah

He flirted every step of the way
(Do-wah do-wah)
I could hear every word he'd say
(Oh yeah)
My resistance was getting low
(Do-wah do-wah)
And my feelings started to show

My heart started thumpin'
Blood pressure jumpin'

He was really saying something
(Saying something)
Really saying something
(Saying something)
Bop bop shoo be do-wah
Bop bop shoo be do-wah

He walked me to my door
(Do-wah do-wah)
I agreed to see him once more
(Oh yeah)
Lady like it may not be
(Do-wah do-wah)
But he moved me tremendously

Although he was bold
My heart he stole

He was really saying something
(Saying something)
Really saying something
(Saying something)
Bop bop shoo be do-wah
Bop bop shoo be do-wah

Hot summer streets
And the pavements are burning
I sit around

Too hot to handle, baby
Trying to smile
But the air is so heavy and dry

Strange voices are saying
What did they say
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort
This heat has got right out of hand

It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone

The city is crowded
My friends are away
And I'm on my own

It's too hot to handle
So I got to get up and go

It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel,
It's a cruel cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one

It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel,
It's a cruel cruel summer
Now you're gone

It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one

It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel,
It's a cruel cruel summer
Now you're gone
You're not the only one

He used to be a shy boy
Until I made him my boy
I never missed a heartbeat
Just sitting in the back seat

I'm gonna give him all my love
Each and every night
One thing I know he's dreaming of
I wanna squeeze and hold him tight

But don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
And don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
Don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
And don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)

Everything we put together
Seems to last forever
He knows about a good time
Gonna make him all mine

He gives me lovin like nobody else
I like the way he turns me on
I wanna keep him all to myself
If my heart could beat that strong

But don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
And don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
Don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)
And don't it make you feel good

He gives me lovin like nobody else
I like the way he turns me on

And don't it make you feel good
(Shoop shoop aaahh)

The room has suddenly grown cold
And outside in the street it's raining
You packed your bags and said goodbye
You took my heart without explaining

How could you go
How could you go
We had a love most people never know
Ooh stop before you break my heart

I want you back, don't care what I have to do
I want you back back back
I want you back, gotta get it through to you
I want you back back back

If I can make you see
Only you can fill the need in me
If you walk away
You'll regret it some day
Please stay

This room is full of memories and
Shadows of the past remind me
Of all the love I gave in vain and
All the hurt I feel inside me

I want you back
I want you back
We had a love most people never know
Ooh stop before you break my heart

I want you back, don't care what I have to do
I want you back back back
I want you back, gotta get it through to you
I want you back back back

If I can make you see
Only you can fill the need in me
If you walk away
You'll regret it some day
Please stay

I want you back
I, I want you back

I want you back
I, I want you
I want you back
We had a love most people never know
Ooh stop before you break my heart

I want you back, don't care what I have to do
I want you back back back
I want you back, gotta get it through to you
I want you back back back

If I can make you see
Only you can fill the need in me
If you walk away
You'll regret it some day
Please stay

I want you back, don't care what I have to do
I want you back back back
I want you back, gotta get it through to you
I want you back back back

You packed your bags as I recall
And you walked slowly down the hall
You said you had to get away to ease your mind
And all you needed was a just little of time

Oh winter's passed, spring and fall
You never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long...

If a woman could die of tears
Nathan Jones, well, I wouldn't be here
The key that you're holding won't fit my door
And there's no room in my heart for you no more

'Cause, winter's passed, spring and fall
you never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long

Nathan Jones, Nathan Jones...
Nathan Jones, ooh..

Winter's passed, spring and fall
You never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long

Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
...gone too long
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
...gone too long
Nathan jones you've been gonne too long
... gone too long...

Who needs friends who never show
I'll tell you what you want to know
I could have saved a broken heart
If I'd found out long ago

I'm just thinking about
Those lonely nights
(I'm just thinking about when I waited)
When I waited for your call
'Til I found out
All my friends were right
('Til I found out, ooh, ooh)
I didn't know you at all

I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
They say you got a broken heart
I heard it,
I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
Yes I did, boy ooh, ooh, ooh

Now it seems they're telling me
You've changed your wicked ways
But should I give you a second chance
Baby, I'm too afraid

So you realise what hurt you made
(So you realise the love)
And the love you threw away
How can I forgive or soon forget
(How can I forgive, ooh, ooh)
It's never gonna be the same

I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
They say you got a broken heart
I heard it,
I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
Yes I did, boy ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, how do you like your love
Ooh, how do you like your love

But if you want to know
How I really feel
Just get the cameras rolling
Get the action going
Baby you know my love for you is real
Take me where you want to
Then my heart you'll steal

More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it

Ooh, how do you like your love
Ooh, how do you like your love

And if you want to know
What it means to me
Just hear the rhythm grooving
Get your body moving
Baby you know my love for you is true
Any time you want to
Do what you gotta do

More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like your love

Baby you know my love for you is real
Take me where you want to
Then my heart you steal

More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like it
More, more, more
How do you like it, how do you like your love

Sugar's sweet but your kisses can't be beat
Whatever you got, it's good enough for me
Boys say (they say) I'm good enough to eat (manger)
Whatever you want you got 'cos you knock me off my feet

I'm hungry for your sweet love
I need you here tonight

Woh-woh

Never trust your own emotions
They'll always let you down
And the one that's closest to you
May not always be around

I never questioned
The promises you made
Every time I gave my heart
I was betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

Maybe everyone's a stranger
I watch them come and go
But I think everyone's in danger
If they let their feelings show

There's a lesson
And a price you have to pay
If you give your heart
Dont let it be betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

What a fool
Every time I find I'm deceived
Where is the love, truth and honesty
If you see it
Won't you bring it on home to me

There's a lesson
And a price you have to pay
If you give your heart
Dont let it be betrayed

What a fool
That I should ever believe
In love, truth and honesty
All the time
You just keep on hurting me

What a fool
Every time I find I'm deceived
Where is the love, truth and honesty
If you see it
Won't you bring it on home to me

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
And that's what gets results

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
And that's what gets results

You can try hard don't mean a thing
Take it easy and then your jive will swing

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results

I thought I was smart but I soon found out
I didn't know what life was all about
But then I learnt I must confess
That life is like a game of chess

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it
And that's what gets results

The young don't grow up
Well not in this life
Big mouths and money
Win every time
Boy beats girl
While the sneaky and snide
Take all your money
And take your pride

Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice

King for a day
But their kingdom grows cold
They'll never grow up
But they're bound to grow old
I remember the pain
And humiliation
And I'll show them rough justice
The way that they did

Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice

Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die
Don't call that justice
Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice

While the sneaky and snide
Take all your money
And take your pride

Don't call that justice

Innocent people walking by
No time to smile before they die

Children are starving on the street
Another one disappearing every week
Don't call that justice

Don't call that justice...

There was something in your voice
That was telling me don't be too sure
Arousing my suspicions
I have never felt before
I thought we had it made
I thought you'd never go away

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was ever planning for
This was the last thing on my mind

When I looked into your eyes
There was something you weren't telling me
But in my confusion
I just couldn't see
If there was any doubt
I thought that we would work it out

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was ever planning for
This was the last thing on my mind

This was the last thing on my mind

There was something in your voice
That was telling me don't be too sure
Arousing my suspicions
I have never felt before
I thought we had it made
I thought you'd never go away

But now you're suddenly like a stranger
And you're leaving our love behind
Of all the things I was ever planning for
This was the last thing on my mind

Down around the corner
Half a mile from here
See them long trains run
And you watch them disappear

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

You know I saw miss Lucy
Down along the tracks
She lost her home and her family
And she won't be coming back

Without love, where would you be right now
Without love

Well the lilino is central
On the southern central freight
Gotta keep on pushing mama
You know they're running late

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

Well the pistons keep on turning
And the wheels go round and round
And the steel rails are cold and hard
For the miles that they go down

Without love, where would you be now
Without love

Baby baby baby baby babe
Oh won't you move it down
I gotta keep on moving
Gotta keep on moving

Its like a magic
I've got to have it
Whatever lies out of reach of me
And to despise it
Just magnifies it
Can't obliterate the need

You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

You're like a black cat
Who always knows that
It's life is a mystery
You mesmerise me
And then you hypnotise me
'Til obsession devours me

You're silky words soothe me
As they move me
To ecstasy
And just as I'm falling
I hear a voice calling
Don't believe

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

You're bad news disguised
Dressed and painted with lies
But I just can't see
When truth is concealed
How the danger appeals
But my conscience sees

I heard it from the preacher man
He said leave that boy alone
He's no good for you
I heard it from the preacher man
He said heaven must have sent you
But the devil's gonna get you
He's gonna do it for you

You know I'll miss you
When you're gone
And I can't pretend
That I know when
Our love started to go wrong

I know we planned to stay together
We just ran into stormy weather
We couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

We talked it over
We've said it all
But who could say
It would be this way
But the writing's on the wall

And now the sun has finally set and
This is where the story ends we
Didn't count upon a rainy day

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on

I know we planned to stay together
We just ran into stormy weather
We couldn't see the dark clouds in the sky

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on

But I had no way of knowing
And I don't know where I'm going
But I'm movin' on

Heartless, heartless

Heartless

Your love is too cold to handle
And I should have realised
When I try to talk it over
You always close your eyes

How can I ever love you
When you won't let me through to you

'Cos you're heartless
How could you be so heartless
I can't believe anybody could be
So heartless

You never show your feelings
Just look the other way
When I try to show affection
You always walk away

How long must you keep me waiting
Maybe you'll never change

'Cos you're heartless
How could you be so heartless
I can't believe anybody could be
So heartless

I can't believe anybody could be
I can't believe anybody could be
So heartless

How can I ever love you
When you won't let me through to you

'Cos you're heartless
How could you be so heartless
I can't believe anybody could be
So heartless

'Cos you're heartless
How could you be so heartless
I can't believe anybody could be
So heartless

Who needs friends who never show
I'll tell you what you want to know
I could have saved a broken heart
If I'd found out long ago

I'm just thinking about
Those lonely nights
(I'm just thinking about when I waited)
When I waited for your call
'Til I found out
All my friends were right
('Til I found out, ooh, ooh)

I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
They say you got a broken heart
I heard it, I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
Yes I did, boy ooh, ooh, ooh

I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
They say you got a broken heart
I heard it, I heard a rumour
Ooh, ooh, I heard a rumour
Yes I did, boy ooh, ooh, ooh

Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name

Wow

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus,
I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus,
I'm your fire
At your desire

Venus

She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus,
I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus,

I was locked in a prison cell
When I woke up I was screaming
Calling out your name (whoa)

And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me (the blame on me)
They wanna tell from my story
They want to hear my plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty (Guilty)
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused
Of love in the first degree

Guilty of love in the first degree
Guilty of love
Guilty of love in
Guilty of love
Guilty of love in
Guilty of love in the first degree

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty (Guilty)
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused
Of love in the first degree

I stand accused
Of love in the first degree

I stand accused
Of love in the first degree
