Prowler (Harris)
[3.55]
Walking through the city
Looking oh so pretty
I’ve just got to find my way
See the ladies flashing
All there legs and lashes
I’ve got to find my way
Well you see me crawling through the bushes with it open wide
What you seeing girl
Can’t you believe that feeling, can’t you believe it
Can’t you believe your eyes
It’s the real thing girl
Got me feeling myself and reeling around
Got me talking but feel like walking around
Got me feeling myself and reeling a...
Got me talking but nothing’s with me...
Got me feeling myself and reeling around
Remember Tomorrow (Harris/Di’Anno)
[5.27]
Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday’s sorrows tomorrows’s white lies
Scan the horizon the clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of fire
Tears for remembrance and tears for joy
Tears for somebody and this lonely boy
Out in the madness the all seeing eye
Flickers above us to light up the sky
Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday’s sorrows tomorrows’s white lies
Scan the horizon the clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of fire
Running Free (Harris/Di’Anno)
[3.16]
Just sixteen a pick up truck
Out of money out of luck
I’ve got no place to call my own
Hit the gas and here I go
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
Spend the night in an L.A. jail
Listen to the sirens weil
But they ain’t got a thing on me
I’m running wild I’m running free
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
Pulled her at the Bottle Top
Whisky dancing disco hop
And all the boys are after me
And that’s the way it’s gonna be
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
I’m running free yeah I’m running free
Phantom Of The Opera (Harris)
[7.20]
I’ve been looking so long for you now you won’t get away from my grasp
You’ve been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask
And you know and I know that you ain’t got long now to last
Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past
You’re standing in the wings there you wait for the curtain to fall
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all
Yeah I know that you’re gonna scratch me and maim me and maul
You know I’m helpless from your mesmerising cat call
Keep your distance walk away don’t take his bait
Don’t you stray don’t fade away
Watch your step he’s out to get you come what may
Don’t stray from the narrow way
I’m running and hiding in my dreams you’re always there
You’re the Phantom of the Opera you’re the devil you’re just out to scare
You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air
You haunt me you taunt me you torture me back at your lair
Transylvania (Harris)
[4.05]
Instrumental
Strange World (Harris)
[5.45]
The only place where you can dream
Living here is not what it seems
Ship of white light in the sky
Nobody there to reason why
Here I am I’m not really there
Smiling faces ever so rare
Let’s walk in deepest space
Living here just isn’t the place
Stalks of light come from the ground
When I cry there isn’t a sound
All my feelings cannot be held
I’m happy in my new strange world
Shades of green grasses twine
Girls drinking plasma wine
A look at love a dream unfolds
Living here you’ll never grow old
Don’t you hear me call Ooh
Charlotte The Harlot (Murray)
[4.12]
Giving a swish with your arse in the air don’t you know what they’re saying
Charlotte you’re so refined when you take all the love that they’re giving
Sticking with every man that you find don’t you know what they’re after
Charlotte you’ve got your legs in the air don’t you hear all the laughter
CHORUS:
Charlotte the Harlot show me your legs
Charlotte the Harlot take me to bed
Charlotte the Harlot let me see blood
Charlotte the Harlot let me see love
Taking so many men to your room don’t you feel no remorse
You charge them a "fiver" it’s only for starters and ten for the main course
And you’ve got no feelings they died long ago don’t you care who you let in
And don’t you know you’re breaking the law with the service you’re giving
CHORUS
There was a time when you left me standing there
Picking up pieces of love off the floor
Well Charlotte you left me alone in there
To make your ends as a bloody whore
Well Charlotte you told me you love me true
Picking up pieces of love yesterday
Well Charlotte you’re draws are off colour too
‘Cause you’re making love all day
Giving a swish with your arse in the air don’t you know what they’re saying
Charlotte you’re so refined when you take all the love that they’re giving
Sticking with every man that you find don’t you know what they’re after
Charlotte you’ve got your legs in the air don’t you hear all the laughter
CHORUS
Iron Maiden (Harris)
[3.35]
Won’t you come into my room
I want to show you all my wares
I just want to see your blood
I just want to stand and stare
See the blood begin to flow
As it falls upon the floor
Iron maiden can’t be fought
Iron maiden can’t be sought
CHORUS:
Oh well wherever wherever you are
Iron maiden’s gonna get you
No matter how far
See the blood flow
Watching it shed
Up above my head
Iron maiden wants you for dead
Sanctuary (Harris/Murray/Di'Anno)
Out of the winter came a war horse of steel.
I've never killed a woman before, but I know how it feels.
CHORUS:
I know you'd have gone insane if you saw what I saw
So now I've got to look for sanctuary from the law
So give me sanctuary from the law and I'll be all right
Just give me sanctuary from the law and love me tonight tonight
I met up with a stranger last night to keep me alive
He spends all his money on gambling and guns to survive
CHORUS
I can laugh at the wind I can howl at the rain
Down in the Canyon or out in the plains
CHORUS
