VICTORY LYRICS

1. The Check's In The Mail


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

If promises were dollars
I'd be a millionaire
Instead I'm living in squalor
And getting skinny and pale
You know your phone is always busy
Or else you put me on hold
I'm getting hungry and dizzy
And this is getting real old

The postman don't ring twice of my house
In fact he don't ring at all
No U.P.S. no Federal Express
Won't somebody give me a call

You say the check's in the mail
Is it a lie?
The check's in the mail
Or just another tall tale
Don't tell me baby
I've heard it all before
The check's in the mail

You say the check's in the mail
Is it a lie?
The check's in the mail
Or just another tall tale
Don't tell me baby
I've heard it all before
The check's in the mail

You say you'll pay me tomorrow
But tomorrow never comes
I got nowhere to borrow
It's time to get out the guns
The light in the tunnel
Is just an oncoming train
Better listen to the rumble
'Cause it's the calm before the rain

The postman don't ring twice of my house
In fact he don't ring at all
No U.P.S. no Federal Express
Won't somebody give me a call

You say the check's in the mail
Is it a lie?
The check's in the mail
Or just another tall tale
Don't tell me baby
I've heard it all before
The check's in the mail
I look every day
'Cause the check's in the mail
Is it a lie?
The check's in the mail
Or just another tall tale
Don't tell me baby
I'd really be surprised
The check's in the mail

The check's in the mail
The check's in the mail
The check's in the mail
The check's in the mail

You say the check's in the mail
Is it a lie?
The check's in the mail
Or just another tall tale
Don't tell me baby
I've heard it all before
The check's in the mail

You say the check's in the mail
I've been knocking 'round your door
The check's in the mail
I got something in store
Don't tell me baby
Can't take it no more
You say the check's in the mail

You say the check's in the mail
I'm getting my gun
The check's in the mail
I'm gonna have me some fun
Don't tell me baby
Because I've heard it before
You say the check's in the mail

You say the check's in the mail
I'm getting my gun
The check's in the mail
I'm gonna have me some fun
Don't tell me baby
Because I've heard it before
You say the check's in the mail


2. Are You Ready


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

I hear there's a party tonight
Everybody's out on the town
Gonna have the time of my life
Everybody's getting on down

So hurry up, baby, don't be lazy
Let the music drive you crazy
Tell me, tell me that you're right tonight
Let me know, let me go, let it go

Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll
All night, all night

Ooh baby you're in all my dreams
Everybody knows my desire
You can tell by the way that I scream
You set my pants on fire

So hurry up, baby, don't be lazy
Let the music drive you crazy
Are you hot tonight
Let me know, let me go, let it go

Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll
All night, all night

Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll
All night

Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll tonight
Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll tonight
Are you ready, are you ready to rock and roll tonight?
Say you're ready, say you're ready to rock and roll
All night


3. Not Me


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

I never get mad I only get even
You think I've been had
Well facts are deceiving
If you believe in your mortality
You better watch your step and don't mess with me

Not me - Cause you're fooling yourself
Not me - must be somebody else
Not me - get a hold of yourself
Not me

I'm an accident just waiting to occur
I'm that sleeping dog you don't want to stir
If you believe in your mortality
Well I'm the trouble that you don't want to seek

Not me - Cause you're fooling yourself
Not me - must be somebody else
Not me - get a hold of yourself
Not me

I carry a grudge like a ten-ton weight
Don't try to judge and don't contemplate
I'm out for blood and you're tempting fate

I'm burning my candles at every end
You know that's mine
I'm trouble ahead around every bend
You know that's mine

That's me - now you're fooling yourself
Not me - must be somebody else
Not me - I'll be casting a spell
Not me - get a hold of yourself
Not me - must be somebody else
Not me - I'll be out raising hell
That's me - Cause you're fooling yourself
Not me - must be somebody else


4. Arsonist Of The Heart


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

You're a pyromaniac on the loose
A siren waiting with a very short fuse
Set me ablaze with your passionate kiss
A searing temptation no man could resist

Play with your matches
Turn me to ashes
I fell right from the start

For the arsonist of the heart
Igniting me with your spark

Seductive flames got me hypnotized
Engulfing me right before my eyes
You smile and burn me right off of my feet
Another victim of your all-consuming heat

Play with your matches
Turn me to ashes
I fell right from the start

For the arsonist of the heart
Igniting me with your spark
A heart burner in the dark
You're an arsonist of the heart

You're an arsonist of the heart
Igniting me with your spark
A heart burner in the dark
You're an arsonist of the heart

For the arsonist of the heart
Igniting me with your spark
You're an arsonist of the heart
A heart burner in the dark
You're an arsonist of the heart


5. Hit And Run


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

It's two A.M. and the last call's passed
Taking tonight like it might be my last
There you are looking young and unattached
Looks like you'll be my one-night match

I strike at random
Don't care how I land 'em

Gotta hit and run
I dive in quick
I'm your wayward son
I'm just out for kicks

I'll use every line in the how-to-book
Gonna get you baby by hook or by crook
Dr. Ruth told me what it's all about
Gotta live it up before I check out

I strike at random
Don't care how I land 'em

Gotta hit and run
I dive in quick
I'm your wayward son
I'm just out for kicks

That's why I hit and run
I'm in and out quick
I'm your prodigal son
I'm just out for kicks
Gotta hit and run

I'm gonna hit and run
I dive in quick
I'm your wayward son
I'm just out for kicks

That's why I hit and run
I'm in and out quick
I'm your long-lost son
I'm just out for kicks

That's why I hit and run
I dive in quick
I'm your wayward son
I'm just out for kicks

Gotta hit and run
I cannot quit
I'm your prodigalson
I'm just out for kicks
Gotta hit and run


6. She's Back


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

I've seen the north side of heaven
I've lived the south side of empty hell
Black days and bluer nights
I couldn't hide in the spotlight

Got an angel's smile
With the devil's guite

She's back, she's back back in town
The best thing that's been around
She's back, she's back back in town
Back in town

I've seen her legs in my dreams
I've seen her face in magazines
White heat and red lights
A one-way street through the dead of night

Got an angel's smile
With the devil's guite
Won't you thrill me - Chill me - kill me

She's back, she's back back in town
The best thing that's been around
She's back, she's back back in town
Back in town

She's back, she's back back in town
The best thing that's been around
She's back, she's back back in town
Back in town

She's back, she's back back in town
The best thing that's been around
She's back, she's back back in town
Back in town, back in town
She's back


7. Turn It Up (The Ballad Of Tipper Gore)


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

Tipper says, I can't, while I say I can
Better duck 'cause you know what just hit the fan
1984 in 1986
Putting us all in a terrible fix
Rock 'n' roll don't carry no guns
Rock 'n' roll never killed anyone
We take no promises and none of your lip
'Cause we ain't about to lie down and quit

Turn it up - loud
Don't turn it down
Gonna stand proud - proud
So turn it up loud

Freedom of speech gives us the right to rock
'Cause we ain't about to turn back the clock
To a brave new world void of all passion
Where silence is golden and the latest of fashion
Rock and roll was always meant to be
Rock and roll we want it on TV
You can't stop us with any of your laws
'Cause rockin' and rollin' is our fighting cause

Turn it up - loud
Don't turn it down
Gonna stand proud - proud
Turn it up loud

Hey, you know I got a good idea,
I think we ought to write
These people a nice long letter
With a brick taped to it
Would you help me throw it?
'Cause I feel, if it's too loud
You're too old

Turn it up - loud
Don't turn it down
Gonna stand proud - proud
Turn it up loud

Turn it up - loud
Don't turn it down
Gonna stand proud - proud
Turn it up loud


8. Seven Days Without You Makes One Weak


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

The ashtray's full and the bed's unmade
My room looks like a terrorist raid
Got dirty clothes all over the place
Why did you have to go away?

Got no place to go, got no reason to stay
All I can do is sit back and wait

'Cause seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days without you
Seems like an eternity

Through Monday would never get through
And Tuesday took a year or two
All Wednesday I spent in a dark saloon
The rest of the week I stayed in my room

Got no place to go, got no reason to stay
All I can do is sit back and wait

'Cause seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days without you
Seems like an eternity
Seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days

'Cause seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days without you
Seems like an eternity
'Cause seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days without you
Seems like an eternity
Seven days without you
Surely makes one weak
Seven days without you
Seems like an eternity
Seven days, seven days
Seven days, seven days
Seven days


9. Sneaking Out


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

I've waited too long for us to be alone
Always trying to ditch our chaperone
Looking to the left and looking to the right
Trying to escape with you into the night

We're sneaking out
Heading south
You and me little girl
Clandestinely

Can't go to your place 'cause your folks are there
And over at my house we'd get nailed on the stairs
Ain't got no money to get ourselves a room
I guess your back seat will just have to do

We're sneaking out
Heading south
You and me little girl
Clandestinely

Fogging the windows up with our hot steamy breath
To get caught now would be a fate worse than death

We're sneaking out
Heading south
You and me little girl
Clandestinely

Yeah,
We're sneaking out
Heading south


10. Running Wild


[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde]

Miss Demeanor fell on her knees
Said put your law inside of me
You know she tired to cop a plea
Not guilty of insanity

'Cause I'm running wild
I'm anything but mild
That's part of my style
'Cause I'm running wild

I'll slander you with low blows
Smear tactics and innuendos
They're just a part of my misdeeds
My charges grow with impunity

'Cause I'm running wild
I'm anything but mild
That's part of my style
'Cause I'm running wild

In a sense you can be the judge
I'm never one to hold a grudge
I'll make my legal motions, you will see
Guilty of lust in the first degree

'Cause I'm running wild
I'm anything but mild
That's part of my style
'Cause I'm running wild

Yes, I'm running wild
I'm anything but mild
Yes, that's part of my style
'Cause I'm running wild
