# All I want is a room with a view

# A sight worth seeing, a vision of you

# All I want is a room with a view

# Oh-oh-oh

# Woh-oh-oh

# I will give you my finest hour

# The one I spent watching you shower

# I will give you

# My finest hour

# Oh, yeah

# All I want is a photo in my wallet

# A small remembrance of something more solid

# All I want is a picture of you

# Picture this, a day in December

# Picture this, freezing cold weather

# You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids

# If it weren't for your job at the garage, if you could only

# Oh-oh-oh, picture this

# A sky full of thunder

# Picture this, my telephone number

# One and one is what I'm telling you

# Oh yeah

# A total portrait with no omissions

# All I want

# Is a vision of you

# Oh-oh-oh

# You've got clouds on your lids

# And you'd be on the skids

# If it weren't for your job at the garage

# If you could only, oh-oh-oh

# Picture this - a sky full of thunder

# Picture this - my telephone number

# Get a pocket computer

# Try to do what you used to do, yeah! #

# I find the lot

# Falls through without you

# Riding the subway, running with people

# Up in Harlem, down on Broadway

# You're no tramp but you're no lady

# Talking that sweet talk

# You're the heart and soul of New York City

# When you still believed

# Love could really be like a Broadway show

# The Five Lamp boys were coming on strong

# The Saturday night city beat had already started

# And the pulse of the corner boys just sprang into action

# He said, "Tonight of all nights,

# "There's gonna be a fight"

# Billy don't like it living here in this town

# He says

# Traps have been sprung long before he was born

# He says

# Hope bites the dust behind all the closed doors

# And blood and tears pour down the drains and the sewer

# There's screaming and crying in the high-rise blocks

# It's a Rat Trap, Billy, but you're already caught

# You can make it if you wanna or you need it bad enough

# You're young and good-looking and you're acting kinda tough

# Anyway, it's Saturday night Time to see what's going down

# Put on a bright suit, Billy Head for the right side of town

# It's only eight o'clock but you're already bored

# You don't know what it is but there's got to be more

# You better find a way out - hey, kick down that door

# It's a rat trap

# And you've been caught

# In this town Billy says everybody's trying to tell you what to do

# In this town Billy says everybody says you gotta follow rules

# You walk up to the traffic lights

# You switch from your left to your right

# You push in that button and that button comes alight

# Hey, Billy... take a walk with me

# Take a walk down misery

# Swing high, swing free

# Oh, little Judy's trying to watch Top Of The Pops

# But Mum and Dad are fighting, don't they ever stop?

# She takes off her coat and walks down to the street

# It's cold on that road, but it's got that home beat

# Deep down in her pocket she finds 50p

# Hey, is that any way for a young girl to be?

# I'm gonna get out of school, work in some factory

# Work all the hours God give me

# Get myself a little easy money Now, now, now, now

# Now, now, now

# Her mind's made up, she walks down the road

# Her hands in her pocket, coat buttoned against the cold

# She finally finds Billy down at the Italian cafe

# When he's drunk, it's hard to understand what Billy says

# But then he mumbles in his coffee, then he suddenly roars,

"It's a rat trap, Judy!

"And we've been CAUGHT!" #

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# So many destinations

# Faces going to so many places

# Where the weather is much better

# And the food is so much cheaper

# Well, I help her with her baggage but the baggage is so heavy

# I hear the plane is ready by the gateway

# To take my love away

# And I can't believe

# That you'd really want to leave me

# And it's getting me so

# It's getting me so

-# Airport

# Are turning in my mind

# How I wish we'd been much stronger

# For the wheels are turning faster as I hear the winds a-blowing

# And it's hurting me so

# It's getting me so

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# You ask me if I love you

# And I choke on my reply

# I'd rather hurt you honestly

# Than mislead you with a lie

# And who am I to judge you

# In what you say or do?

# I'm only just beginning

# To see the real you

# And sometimes when we touch

# The honesty's too much

# And I have to close my eyes and hide

# I wanna hold you till I die

# Till we both break down and cry

# I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

# Romance and all its strategy

# Leaves me battling with my pride

# But through the insecurity

# Some tenderness survives

# I'm just another writer

# Still trapped within my truth

# A hesitant prize-fighter

# Still trapped within my youth

# And sometimes when we touch

# The honesty's too much

# And I have to close my eyes

# And hide

# I wanna hold you till I die

# Till we both break down and cry

# I wanna hold you

# Till the fear in me

# Subsides

# At times I'd like to break you

# And drive you to your knees

# At times I'd like to break through

# And hold you endlessly

# Sometimes when we touch

# The honesty's too much

# And I have to close my eyes

# And hide

# I wanna hold you till I die

# Till we both break down and cry

# I wanna hold you

# Till the fear in me subsides. #

# I could lead to wide extremes I could do or die

# I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch them gallop by

# What a waste

# What a waste

# What a waste

# What a waste

# Cos I chose to play the fool in a six-piece band

# First-night nerves every one-night stand

# I should be glad to be so inclined

# What a waste, what a waste But the world don't mind

# Oh

# Chose to play the fool in this six-piece band

# First-night nerves every one-night stand

# I should be glad to be so inclined

# What a waste, what a waste But I don't mind

# What a waste, what a waste But I don't mind... #

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# I was walking down the street

# Concentrating on trucking right

# I heard a dark voice beside of me

# And I looked round in a state of fright

# I saw four faces, one mad A brother from the gutter

# They looked me up and down a bit

# And turned to each other

# I say, I don't like cricket, ah!

# Oh, no

# I love it, ah!

# I don't like cricket, ah!

# No, no!

# I love it, ah!

# Don't you walk through my words Got to show some respect

# Don't you walk through my words

# Cos you ain't heard me out yet

# Well, he looked down at my silver chain

# He said, "I'll give you one dollar"

# I said, "You got to be joking, man

# "It was a present from me mother"

# He said, "I like it, I want it, I'll take it off your hands

# "And you'll be sorry you crossed me

# "You better understand that you're alone

# "A long way from home"

# And I say, I don't like reggae, ah!

# No, no!

# I love it, ah!

# I don't like reggae, no

# I love it, ah!

# Don't you cramp me style Don't you queer me pitch

# Don't you walk through my words Cos you ain't heard me out yet

# I hurried back to the swimming pool

# Sinking pina colada

# I heard a dark voice beside me say

# "Would you like something harder?"

# She said, "I've got it, you want it

# "My harvest is the best

# "If you try it, you'll like it

# "And wallow in a dreadlock holiday"

# A dreadlock holiday, a dreadlock holiday

# I say, don't like Jamaica

# Oh, no!

# I love her

# Don't like Jamaica

# Oh, no!

# I love her... #

SYNTHESIZER PLAYS

# You abandoned me

# Love don't live here any more

# Just a vacancy

# Love don't live here any more

# When you lived inside of me

# There was nothing I could conceive

# That you wouldn't do for me

# Trouble seemed so far away

# You changed and right away

# Baby, you abandoned me

# Love don't live here any more

# Just a vacancy

# Love don't live here any more... #

# Love don't live here any more

# Just emptiness and memories

# Of what we had before

# You went away

# Found another place to stay

# Another home

# You've abandoned me

# Love don't live here any more

# Just a vacancy, babe

# Love don't live here any more! #

# Through the windows of my eyes

# Everyone can see

# The loneliness inside me

# Why d'you have to go away?

# Don't you know I miss you so?

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# There lived a certain man in Russia long ago

# He was big and strong In his eyes, a flaming glow

# Most people look at him with terror and with fear

# But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear

# He could preach the Bible like a preacher

# Full of ecstasy and fire

# But he also was the kind of teacher

# Women would desire

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Lover of the Russian queen

# There was a cat that really was gone

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Russia's greatest love machine

# It was a shame how he carried on... #

VOICEOVER: But when his drinking and lusting and hunger for power

became known to more and more people,

the demands to do something about this outrageous man

became louder and louder!

# Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

# Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

# Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

# Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! #

GUITAR SOLO

# "This man has got to go," declared his enemies

# But the ladies begged, "Don't you try to do it, please"

# No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms

# Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms

# Then one night some men of higher standing

# Set a trap, they're not to blame

# "Come to visit," as they kept demanding

# And he really came

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Lover of the Russian queen

# They put some poison into his wine

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Russia's greatest love machine

# He drank it all and said, "I feel fine"

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Lover of the Russian queen

# They didn't quit, they wanted his head

-# Ra-ra-Rasputin

-Russia's greatest love machine

# And so they shot him till he was dead. #

Oh, those Russians!
