Lost in this unearthly moment there's a wild tomorrow waiting for your head to hammer out a passkey to the sky Such outlandish vision will explode on your red letter day and quench your hunger for the dream that will not pass you by I was there with headphones on the night the lightning struck Meant for your ears only his guitar had run amuck Free from all the tension that you knew would last forever Smack your lips and witness all the open spaces if you try and suddenly it seems some gypsy left a maybe on your doorstep Now you got a second wind to blow into your eye Carving out the answer to a question from above Savage colors flying thru the halls of untamed love Sonic souls are shattered as the picturesque pretender puts your eyes and ears together as he speaks without a word Before you touch the second hand one tenant of your atmosphere will break the bitter silence with the sweetest sound you've heard Feel his frantic fingers getting closer to your spot Soon you will be riding his electric chariot

Seems to me the moon's too blue to lay low on a night like this Let's hit the town with all the lights and let that great big city grant our wish There's a time and there's a place and this could be there and then So what are we waiting for? We ain't wealthy but we got lots of time to spend Yeah it's some kinda night it's some kinda night So right is the time for us (right now) Thru the hills and into town Are you ready for the city? (I'm ready, I'm ready) you are such a party hound Perfect timing, all the big festivities are starting now solo Seems to me you look too fine to ever let this party end Let's find the place where time stands still and our lives will never be the same again Ohh it's some kinda night it's some kinda night So right is the time for us (believe me it's happenin') Didn't I promise that I'd show you a good time show you a good time show you a good time I was born for this one night gonna show you a good time show you a good time show you a good time

Did I ever mention I can see the tension flowin' up and down your silent face Here's the news I once wore your shoes and a little anger wouldn't be out of place Are you disappointed well, that's a start Now it's time to decide what you're gonna do - You can hang your head - you can fight it out or you can move along to name a few Which are you gonna pick Will you pout, will you shout or will you hit the bricks To Rock Is Human but to Roll Divine I confess that you're so depressed that I cannot stand the sight of you so tell me when you're upset again and that's one soap opera that you won't put me thru Some get odd, and some get even even but the smart ones get right outa there That doesn't seem to be an option here though I guess you're just too damned scared so which is it gonna be are you sad, are you mad or are you history

Sun rises in the east, goes down in the west You're a little bit scared, a little hair upon your chest They threw you to the wolves, put you to the test Seems you can't have more, and you won't settle for less You try to hold your head up, you try to do your best but you used to be so happy, now you're so depressed Then one day you wake up, I think you know the rest You're surfacing in the real wilderness surfacing in the real wilderness in the real wilderness Sun sets in the west, comes up in the east and you're wonderin' if you'll ever be released In shackles so long, your spirit is deceased and it seems your famine is anyone's feast Your wheels are turnin' slower, your heartbeat is increased You think you're part man, you know you're part beast or a cog in the machine that's long obsolete Are you lost in the woods? No that is the street surfacing in the real wilderness in the real wilderness Woke up in the embryo He wanted to see, he wanted to know Born in the metropolitan jungle He was learning fast but it was still too slow Faces floating north and south Cars and buses that ugly sound and when his feet first hit the ground he knew that he could never go with that flow no no no If everyday ain't judgment day, then logic is a whim of the prehistoric human, then we're back where we begin When a fool runs out of questions, then it's out of his control There's no time for easy listening for the one without a soul He is the missing link (Man is the missing link) He doesn't know what he should think (You don't know what to think) or is he on the brink? nononononono In your state of independence, there's no place for innocence I caught a glimpse of what makes you dance and it seems your bliss is ignorance It's lonely lonely lonely world when everybody stays inside Your eyes they seem so far away Are you looking for a place to hide? He is the missing link (Man is the missing link) He doesn't know what he should think (You don't know what to think) or is he on the brink? nononononono Neanderthal to business man He knew but he wanted to understand He's not about to figure out what comes next in the master plan Hated cause he takes the chances that you could never take Instantly he feels the things you've somehow come to fake It seems you're so afraid to bend, when he would dare to break and if the moment caught you sleeping, he was wide awake He is the missing link (Man is the missing link) He doesn't know what he should think (You don't know what to think) or is he on the brink?

When the rocks are brittle and the mud is dry, the cruel yellow sun becomes a red sky and that dull grass town, there's no movement at all not a twitch of life until night falls Through the white molded windows just traces of light Computer monitors on thru the night And all the lifeblood being shared I mean being given away The hopes and dreams of another day The days are like weeks, the years are a blur But the dogs are all howling, now something's astir As long as the spirit of what should've been Appears out of nowhere to take one last spin Through a town called Won't Matter, down a street called Long Gone There's a guy who feels something, it ain't drugs that he's on It's a moment in time when he started to live An impending explosion oh something must give And the voice of god and the last rock hope They're tryin' to hang him but they ran out of rope And past guitar legends come back from the dead To play so inspired that the world turns its head And what started with whispers will end up so loud in the city called Never will gather a crowd No it won't be too long til that town is awake You can feel the ground moving, it's the Year of the Snake And as one good era passes til it’s gone Another one is coming with the dawn You thought that life was over as you’ve known But change is always turnin’, it’s been shown And the mojo magnet and the future of rock and the king of sustain will to everyone's shock be the ones who will rise from the dry desert sand To shine like a nova cause no one else can There's a guy who feels something, they're tellin' him he's wrong But it's gonna turn out he was right all along And the ones who denied them in the hot sun they'll bake It's gonna all come down in the Year of the Snake And the voice of god and the last rock hope They've been tryin' to hang him but they ran out of rope And past guitar legends come back from the dead To play so inspired that the world turns its head And what started as whispers will end up so loud in the city called Never, they will gather a crowd No it won't be too long til that town is awake You can feel the ground moving, it's the Year of the Snake
