Scars
(ian hunter/darrell bath/honest john plain)
Well I still got your blood running through my veins
I still got your blood running through my veins
And even though the circumstances change
I know we never got along - the pieces would not fit
And I still got the scars to show for it
Staring through the window at the rain
Is it me or have all the colours changed?
I was sick with jealousy
I know why you had to split
And you still got the scars to prove it.
I cant see them, but I can feel them
Theyre tearing me up inside
I feel them kicking - I feel them sticking
Like something in me died
And its all right - I wish you the very best
I just had to get it/this off my chest
People tell me on the street that you dont give a
I took that kind of hard
Its just another kind of scar I got to show for it

Somethins Goin On
(ian hunter)
The spirit of war is all around us
n everybody knows somethins goin on
Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers
Cos everybody knows somethins goin on
Nuclear missiles - cover to cover
Everybody knows somethins goin on
The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers
n everybody knows somethins goin on
Well I say
Roll up to the party - welcome to the show
Well make you live in fear - then well make you disappear
Somethins goin on n everybody knows
What you got - what you got
Everybody knows somethins goin on
Most people got nothin - a few got the lot
n everybody knows - its still goin on
Well I say
Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row
Just do what we say - then well blow you all away

No One
I used to come home each night to no one - no one
All by myself, turn out the light - no one - no one
One knife, a fork 'n' a spoon
An empty bed in a cold room
Oooh I needed someone - maybe you could help
I called you up, I said "There's no one, baby there's no one else"
No one ever looked twice at me - no one - no one
Take a look at my life - what do you see - no one - no one
Kinda nervous 'n' jealous too - I lose me if I lose you
Just when I was feeling sorry for myself
She called me back, she said, "There's no one, baby there's no one else"
With no one to call you - with no one rootin' for you
With no one to adore you - you'd be lost and alone
With no one to kiss you - with no one to miss you
And always be with you - you would turn into stone
I've been waiting for the longest time
To hold your hand on Sunday
Oooh I needed someone - I saw you and I fell
I called you up, I said, "There's no one - and I'll never want anyone else"
Baby there's no one else

Fun
(ian hunter/mark clarke/hilly michaels)
I got a shower curtain stickin to my back
And the od cologne sure packs a whack
I got blood on my razor - my face is in shock
n my hair hangin down like a rastamans locks
I think Im ready - Im gettin ready
Gettin ready teddy - were all gonna have fun
I gotta rock n roll - rocket says you gotta go fast
n the radios blarin out a blast from the past
Lucilles in the back screamin gimme a break
Your momma didnt tell you - thats the chance you take
Its oh so sad
When this love is all that we have
To swallow a lifetime away
With so many hours in each day
But calm your foolish heart
Our girlfriends cant keep us apart
Im with you every step of the way
Baby - what more can I say
The only problem is

At the peppermint inn

In the middle of the night

She plays it every day.

Shes shootin up the stereo,

Easy Money
(corky laing/ian hunter)
Once upon a time
She was the virgin of a million lonely minds
And now its such a crying shame
She does not even know her name
No-one ever knew
All the heavy changes shes been going through
All the sons and lovers on her mind
Cos easy moneys hard to find
Ive been searching
All night long
You know, shes been searching all night long
Easy money
She gets down on her knees
Shes begging you please
Cos she needs
Easy money
Shes out on a run
She needs someone can she please
Nightmare rides

The Ballad Of Little Star
(ian hunter)
You dont look a day over ten so why be
Do you have to pretend to be older than you are
Beads and mirrors by your body
And in some roadside bar you feel the pain
Little star
Lost on a merry go round, on the game
You can never be found cause you dont know who you are
The reservation killed your nation
And in some tourists car you feel the pain
Little star
You know you know
We grow and grow
We never slow
We always win
And you feel lost
And you feel crossed
And you feel tossed
Just like the wind
Your father will have told you of the wind

The Loner
(ian hunter)
I was born
On the 3rd of june-hard labor-gemini moon
I was raised
In a country town-livin dead were all puttin me down
And my flesh and blood-my flesh and blood
Kicked me out - they never understood that..
That its alright-its alright- its alright to be a loner
Skin and bone, skin and bone, lean lookin wont you let me take you home
How about is babe, how about , a little love til the money runs out
Well give em hell babe, well give em hell
I aint the kind thats gonna kiss and tell
Im alright -you know Im alright- its alright to be a loner
Its alright-its alright- its alright to be a loner
Turn out the lights-bring on the night- oh baby Im a loner
I got my bags-i got my boots- I got ma wits about me-i got my roots
I gotta guitar-40 years old- Im gonna play it til the stories been told
Well knock em dead girl-well knock em dead
So when you think o me remember what I said
Its alright girl-its alright girl- its alright to be a loner...

The Other Man
(ian hunter)
I forgive you when you cant look straight into my eye
I forgive you when you never want to hold my hand
I forgive you cause youre all Ive got and I love you
But Ill never forgive the other man
I forgive you even though I know the secret you keep
I forgive you even though you dont give a damn
I forgive you cause deep inside youre part of me
But Ill never forgive the other man
Somewhere in the night hes calling
And somewhere in your heart youre falling
Ill forgive you when you stay out late and you never phone
Ill forgive you even though Ill never understand
Ill forgive you cause youre all Ive got and I love you
But Ill never forgive the other man
Somewhere in the night hes calling
And somewhere in your heart youre falling
Ill forgive you when you stay out late and you never phone
Ill forgive you even though Ill never understand
Ill forgive you cause youre all Ive got and I love you

I Need Your Love
(Ian Hunter)
It was a cold, cold house,
I was a cold, cold room.
No one lived in me.
I was an empty tune.
Lovers came to view
'n' they looked all around.
But they couldn't see nothin',
nothin but the ground, they really put me down
and then someone broke
inside of me
and I found myself learnin'
how to fight free.
And it feels so good
when I can turn to you
'n' look you straight in the eye,
say I need you, need you, oh I need you
I need your love, baby,
I need your love, I gotta hear your name
over and over, over again.
