Oh Avalon 04:30
My bones are aching with the season’s cold That old familiar chill is really getting old I feel a shiver like I’ve walked across my grave There is nothing left to save There is nothing left to save Tune in the station but now there’s nothing there Soak in confusion from the static in the air Distant memories calling from another age There is nothing left to save There is nothing left to save There is nothing left to save… Lie down your head And succumb to sleep There are seeds we plant In the dreams we keep Oh Avalon… Oh Avalon… Where have you gone? Oh Avalon…

She’s a dangerous woman I could tell when our eyes first met Didn’t take but a moment And I was captured in her net She’s a dangerous woman I was a stallion running free Now I’m fat and happy in my pasture And she brings the whip on me She’s a dangerous woman When she’s around I’m short of breath I’m long on expectations I’ll have her or I’ll catch my death She’s a dangerous woman Sword of lust and a shield of love She’s damn near supernatural Fits my mojo just like a glove She’s a dangerous woman She’s got her hooks in me She’s a dangerous woman Never again going to be free She’s a dangerous woman Black widow and angel of grace There’s magic on her lips And salvation in her face She’s a dangerous woman She’s a shelter in the storm Tall cool glass in the summer In the dead of winter she’s so warm She’s a dangerous woman She’s got her hooks in me She’s a dangerous woman Never again going to be free BRIDGE (spoken): She’s a dangerous woman She’s got her hooks in me She’s a dangerous woman Never again going to be free She’s a dangerous woman She’s got her hooks in me She’s a dangerous woman Never again going to be free She’s a dangerous woman She’s got her hooks in me She’s a dangerous woman Never again going to be free

Shake it like you are the one Make it like it can't be undone Stop and smell the roses Once and awhile Rub it in their noses But with a smile Work it. Come on and make a scene. Jerk it like it's something obscene You won't get any, any complaints From me You don't have any, any restraints As far as, as far as I can see You're running wild You're a unbridled hero You're destiny's child On a countdown to zero Ready to launch On the tip of an arrow Ready or not You're on a countdown to zero Rock it. Burn that mother down. Sock it like bobble headed clown You're never gonna Gonna give it away You're gonna make All those others pay You're running wild You're a unbridled hero You're destiny's child On a countdown to zero Ready to launch On the tip of an arrow Ready or not You're on a countdown to zero You're running wild You're a unbridled hero You're destiny's child On a countdown to zero Ready to launch On the tip of an arrow Ready or not You're on a countdown to zero [solo] You're running wild You're a unbridled hero You're destiny's child On a countdown to zero Ready to launch On the tip of an arrow Ready or not You're on a countdown to zero You're running wild You're a unbridled hero You're destiny's child On a countdown to zero Ready to launch On the tip of an arrow Ready or not You're on a countdown to zero

Damaged Soul 03:04
Can’t you read the message written on the wall? Can’t seem to focus as you stumble down the hall Memory is mushy just like your brain Feels like you’ve just been hit by a runaway train Hope everything will be alright What the hell happened last night? You’ve lost control Ears are starting to ring Can’t remember a single thing You’re a damaged soul Can’t find your wallet or your wedding ring Keep on wishing that it was all a dream Can’t stop the pounding inside your skull There’s nowhere to run to and no one to call Hope everything will be alright What the hell happened last night? You’ve lost control Ears are starting to ring Can’t remember a single thing You’re a damaged soul Lay it down… You’re a damaged soul… You gotta stand up when you fall down So get your ass up off the ground It’s all yours so own it full Your battered body and your damaged soul You gotta stand up when you fall down So get your ass up off the ground It’s all yours so own it full Find a remedy for a damaged soul Hope everything will be alright What the hell happened last night? You’ve lost control Ears are starting to ring Can’t remember a single thing You’re a damaged soul [repeat]

Deep in the muddy water Down by the rotting sea You can find the Devil's daughter Cooking up some liquid ecstasy I haven't seen her for some time But that's because she makes a grown man blind Everything seems a little foggy The air is heavy with a spicy stink Something 'bout her makes a man a little groggy Makes him kill for another drink I haven't seen her for some time But that's because she makes a grown man blind Something's not right in the water Something's not right with the air You've been kissing the Devil's daughter And now you're slowly sinking without a care Whoo! The Devil's Daughter! I haven't seen her for some time But that's because she makes a grown man blind Something's not right in the water Something's not right with the air You've been kissing the Devil's daughter And now you're slowly sinking without a care [break] You've been drinking from that bottle You've been drinking from the Holy Grail You've been kissing the Devil's daughter No wonder that you look so pale You've been drinking from that bottle You've been drinking from the Holy Grail You've been kissing the Devil's daughter You can't win when you're determined to fail Something's not right in the water Something's not right with the air You've been kissing the Devil's daughter And now you're slowly sinking without a care Whoo! The Devil's Daughter! Yeah, yeah, yeah... The Devil's Daughter!

So you want to make an impression You want to steal my breath? Stop worrying about your mascara selection You got me bored to death If you want to get my attention You’ve gotta have half a brain Tell me things that build the tension Words that drive me insane It’s pretty simple It all starts with the lips You want to get things started Tell me all your secrets You thought that I was looking you over That I was fed by my eyes Well, you can’t judge a book by its cover Appearances can be lies It’s pretty simple It all starts with the lips You want to get things started Tell me all your secrets Sure thing, I want your body But first give me your mind Yeah you might be a little hotty But you should know that my heart is blind Come over here and sit beside me Let’s have a little chat Talk is cheap but not curiosity What do you think about that? It’s pretty simple It all starts with the lips You want to get things started Tell me all your secrets Sure thing, I want your body But first give me your mind Yeah you might be a little hotty But you should know that my heart is blind You want to make a connection Well here’s your chance to shine You want some of my affection You gotta know that my heart is blind It’s not that I don’t appreciate your curves It’s just that stupidity really gets on my nerves Sure thing, I want your body But first give me your mind Yeah you might be a little hotty But you should know that my heart is blind You want to make a connection Well here’s your chance to shine You want some of my affection You gotta know that my heart is blind

Momma said don’t be afraid of monsters Because they don’t exist Now I won’t say my momma’s a liar But I’m pretty pissed Hey momma, just take a look around We’re so deep in monsters that we might drown Momma said don’t talk to strangers Because they might be bad But when I think of all the people I don’t know It makes me sad Hey momma, just take a look around All that bad in the world just gets me down Believe what you want See what you want to see Say what you want to say But don’t be a drag on me Everybody’s got something that gets them That gets them really hot Like how the haves have more and more And the rest of us have not Hey momma, just take a look around There’s gotta be some happiness to be found Believe what you want See what you want to see Say what you want to say But don’t be a drag on me Keep what you want to keep Be who you want to be Feel what you want to feel But don’t be a drag on me No, don’t be a drag on me Don’t be a drag… I might be a fool For seeing the glass as half full But I’d rather have a smile on my face Than put up with your bull [solo] Believe what you want See what you want to see Say what you want to say But don’t be a drag on me Keep what you want to keep Be who you want to be Feel what you want to feel But don’t be a drag on me No, no, no…

Hey lady, you going my way? Better get in while you can ‘Cause I’m headed down that highway I’m a man with a plan So why don’t you join me As I travel across this land And if you want to give us a kiss I’d be a fortunate man I wanna see every corner Of this land of the free I’m going coast to coast Nothing’s gonna to stop me I’m not looking to take advantage I just wanna hold your hand But if you want to give us a kiss I’d be a fortunate man You can be my traveling companion As we move from sea to shining sea I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything so beautiful As you sitting next to me Hey lady, you going my way? I think we make a good team So turn up that music Yeah, we’re living the dream We’ve got some ground to cover Doing the best that we can And if you want to give us a kiss I’d be a fortunate man You can be my traveling companion As we move from sea to shining sea I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything so beautiful As you sitting next to me We’re hitting the highway We’re gonna be set free We’re hitting the highway Come sit next to me Just like those wild mustangs Like the birds in the sky We’re hitting the highway And we’re gonna fly So why don’t you join me As I travel across this land And if you want to give us a kiss I’d be a fortunate man We’ve got some ground to cover Doing the best that we can And if you want to give us a kiss I’d be a fortunate man
