1. Loving You Sunday Morning LYRICS
Working hard to get it on for you
Everyday and night
I give you all I've got to give
Take it all
Love I know that you're feelin' blue
Lonely deep inside
'Cause I know how it feels to be alone

Loving you Sunday morning
You were on my mind love everyday
Loving you Sunday morning
Your love makes me fly so far away

People tell me that I'm gonna lose you
Our love will die
So tell me is it true right or wrong
I never ever wanna lose your love
So I will change my life
Believe in me my love
I'm coming home

Loving you Sunday morning
You were on my mind love everyday
Loving you Sunday morning
Your love makes me fly so far away

2. Another Piece of Meat LYRICS
Met her down at that Tokyo place
Loved her pretty face
I said: "Hey, you're alright, so alright!"
I was sitting in her car
She told me: "You're a star and I know you."

She said: "Take me home."
I need love so strong
Come on and knock me out, oh!
I've been too long alone
I want hot love, you know, and I need it now!"

She said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
She said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece --
Another piece of meat."

Next day she took me out
To a rough kick boxing show
Violence really turned her on, oh no
She was screaming for more blood
Loved it more than any drug I couldn't stand it

I said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece --
Another piece of meat."

3. Always Somewhere LYRICS
Arrive at seven the place feels good
No time to call you today
Encores till eleven then Chinese food
Back to the hotel again

I call your number the line ain't free
I like to tell you come to me
A night without you seems like a lost dream
Love I can't tell you how I feel

Always somewhere
Miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again

Another morning another place
The only day off is far away
But every city has seen me in the end
And brings me to you again

Always somewhere
Miss you where I've been
I'll be back to love you again

5. Can't Get Enough LYRICS
That's the stuff that turns me on
More than gold and money
I need sounds loud and rough
Like the bee the honey my love
I can't get enough

Move you legs stamp your feet
The language of your body
Is right now all need
To understand you're ready for love
I can't get enough

Burning lips the taste of life
High energy hot feelings
Heavy sounds to feel alright
And Rock 'n' Roll for Speed Kings my love
I can't get enough
We can't get enough

6. Is There Anybody There? LYRICS
Open my mind let me find new vibrations
Tell me the way I must take to reach my destination
And a place where I can stay
Where is the love of my life couldn't find her
Show me the way to find myself
'Cause I'm nowhere in the darkness of these days

Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who whows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back to sun to my heart

I find myself in a state of confusion
Life's like a pantomime trick or a laser illusion
Where's a place that I can stay
Save me don't let me get lost in the ocean
I need your help everyday to control my emotions
In the darkness of these days

Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart

7. Lovedrive LYRICS
A girl to drive a car to love
The music rocks me down the motorway
My whore's got wings we're taking off
And I can't stop this flight of speed today

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

The city lights of London town
Are far away my hand is on her wing (on her wing)
I stop the car and she gets down
I'd like to show why Scorpions got a sting

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy baby

It's a lovedrive

8. Holiday LYRICS
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange the cold days for the sun
A good time and fun
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange your troubles for some love
Wherever you are
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Longing for the sun you will come
To the island without name
Longing for the sun be welcome
On the island many miles away from home
Be welcome on the island without name
Longing for the sun you will come
To the island many miles away from home
