WHEELS OF SILENCE
(Arens/Vandall)

I wonder will I ever
Know the reasons why
Someone put me out of work
When they took my car away
So now I walk
I'm forced to crawl another mile
In this jobless city's unemployment line
Tired of waiting
It's such a crime
That the bus is never ever on time

On wheels of silence
Driving to a dead-end state of mind
Unaware, the violence
Deaf, dumb and blind

In a sea of stormy weather
I exercise my mind
I take a sail
I drift off to a tropical land
I wonder how I ever
Got to be in this forsaken place
Tired of crying
A tidal wave
As it welcomes me square in the face

The wheels of silence
Can drive you to a dead-end state of mind
Unaware, the violence
Deaf, dumb and blind

I don't wanna say it
But it's bringing me down
I need to pick myself up off the ground
Sometimes it's the way things go
But I don't, I don't have to take it

I don't wanna say it
But it's bring me down
Don't wanna have to take it lying down
Sometimes that's the way life goes
But I, I'm not gonna take it

(Bridge-Solo)

I don't wanna say it
But it's bringing me down
I need to pick myself up off the ground
Sometimes it's the way things go
But I don't, I don't have to take it

I don't wanna say it
But it's bringing me down
Don't wanna have to take it lying down
Sometimes it's the way life goes
But I, I don't have to take it
No, I'm not gonna take it

Sometimes it's the way things go
But I don't, I don't have to take it
I don't wanna say it
But it's bringing me down
No I'll turn my life around
Sometimes that's the way life goes
But I, I'm not gonna take it
ARE YOU RICH ENOUGH (YOW HOW HOW)
(Vandall)

There's a wicked witch living way on top of a hill
In a house of brick and stone
Of beauty and greed
And deadly charity with a price
Her walls are always listening
So beware of what you say
She'll burn you in revenge
Then fly off high in her Mercedes Benz again

All day long, I think of you at night
Attracting your attentions in green candlelight
The payoff...
But are you rich and big enough?
Uh-uh

Yow How How - Yow How How- Yow How How
Yeh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh
(repeat)

All day long, I think of you at night
Plotting the destruction of everyone in sight
The fallout...
But are you rich and big enough?
Uh-uh

Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow
Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow

Yow How How - Yow How How - Yow How How
Yeh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh
Yow How How - Yow How How
Make my money grow

(Solo)

Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow
Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow

All day long, I think of you at night
Plotting the destruction of everyone in sight

Yow How How - Yow How How - Yow How How
Yeh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh-Heh
(repeat)

Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow
Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money grow

Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money double
Fires burn and cauldrons bubble
Make my money double
Double double, toil and trouble
Make my money double
Fires burn and cauldrons bubble
Make my money double
UNTIL DEATH DO US PART
(Lindemann/Vandall/Arens/Woodward)

See simple Sally sitting by the phone
Always available, was always home
She had a heart of gold, a winning smile
Until the day she died
Her boyfriend stabbed her in the back one day
Couldn't have done it in a sneakier way
In shock she lay there as her life flashed by
But then she opened her eyes and said

No, I feel alright
I feel alive again
I've been to the edge
And I have lived through hell
What a story to tell

(Until death do us part)
She'll have to live with the memories
(Until death do us part)
That fairy tales may bury her someday

See Dicky dig himself into a hole
He had a secret that he should have told
He kept another Sally on the side
He was a special guy (yeah)
As luck would have it on that fateful day
The Sally's met and there was hell to pay
They stripped poor Dicky down to his pride
And cut him down, down to size (oh)

He lay there all night
And thought about what he'd done
Once proud as a peacock
Now he's slick as a worm
Will he ever learn

(Until death do us part)
He'll have to live with the memories
(Until death do us part)
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
In the darkness when he sleeps
Nightmares won't let him rest in peace
(Until death do us part)
Haunting faces mock his shame
Fairy tales may bury him someday

Here come the brides all dressed in white...

(Solo)

Oh - Dearly Beloved
We have all witnessed here today
Oh what a tangled web we weave
When we practice to deceive

(Until death do us part)
They'll have to live with the memories
(Until death do us part)
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
In the darkness when they sleep
Nightmares won't let them rest in peace
(Until death do us part)
Haunting faces, haunting names
Fairy tales may bury them someday
Fairy tales may bury them someday
SLAMMED
(Vandall)

Got slammed into these four walls
Slammed into the dark
Someone threw my mind out in the yard
And I cry...
I cry...
I cry...
To let me out
Let me out...
BLACK WINTER NIGHT
(Arens/Vandall)

One cautious step on the wire
My life surrounded by fire
Repetitive aggravation
A cold, unguided foundation

Winter's arms tap me on my left
Their brittle claws brush against my neck
I clutch my blanket around me
I lay me down to weep

I don't know if there's a path to follow
I don't know where I'll sleep tomorrow
Guardian angel tuck me in for the night
Upon my bed of ice

It's so hard to find
Black winter night, reveal your light
I'm lost in the cold and I wanna go home
Black winter night, reveal your light

Adventurers of rebellion
On a crash course to heaven
Runaway friends
Wondering will we make it back again

Try not to sleep, just try to relax
The sandman crosses the railroad tracks
I clutch my blanket around me
I lay me down to sleep

I don't know if there's a path to follow
I don't know where I'll sleep tomorrow
Guardian angel tuck me in for the night
Upon my bed of ice

It's so hard to find
Black winter night, reveal your light
I'm lost in the cold and I wanna go home
Black winter night, reveal your light

It's so hard to find, it's a matter of time
Black winter night, reveal your light
I'm lost in the cold and I wanna go home
Black winter night, reveal your light

(Solo)

Skating uphill on the black ice
As I skid down (down upon the black ice)
Skating uphill on the black ice
As I skid down, down, down

I don't know if there's a path to lead me home tonight
Guardian angel I pray
Don't let me fall asleep
On this frozen bed of ice

It's so hard to find
Black winter night, reveal your light
I'm lost in the cold and I wanna go home
Black winter night, reveal your light

It's so hard to find (who are we)
Black winter night, reveal your light
Enough with the cold and I wanna go home
Black winter night, reveal your light
Reveal your light

Won't you shine a little light for me
Won't you shine for me
Oh black winter night,
Let up on the stars, won't you show me their light
