Golden Earring - The Continuing Story of Radar Love Lyrics






Radar Love

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head that drives my heel
It's my baby callin', says I need you here
And it's a half past four and I'm shiftin' gear
When she is lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin' in from above
Don't need no phone at all

We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a wave in the air, radar love
The radio is playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"

The road has got me hypnotized
And I'm speedin' into a new sunrise
When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort comin' in from above

We don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a light in the sky, radar love

No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go

And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
Oh one more radar lover gone

When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort comin' in from above
We don't need no letter at all

We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a light in the sky

We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a thing that's called radar love

The Vanilla Queen

Fascinating lady, snowflake in the sun
You make me feel so bourgeois
Oh, you've captured everyone
I hear you've been a dancer
At some famous Paris show
And million dollar lovers
Neatly saw you to your door

Nineteen fifty seven,
Sweetheart of the year
Secret of your beauty,
Was your moon tan and your fear
And now you run this city
You're still honey to the flies
Attract the in crowd dandies
Faraway-look in their eyes

You're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
Your mask is sterile dignity
Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
You haunt me, even in my dreams
It couldn't be avoided
We were bound to meet
I knew you would drag me down
And toss me off my feet
Sweet moments of desire
Sweet moments of relief
You blew down my fences
You're natural make-believe

You're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
Your mask is sterile dignity
Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
You haunt me, even in my dreams

Candys Going Bad

Candy took the pearls, got ahead of the girls
Got on top and found the secret entrance
Are you satisfied?
Through neon doors, 'cross killing floors
She got sucked into a champagne desert
Are you satisfied?

Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you come home dressed in Peacock clothes
Mother said: quit the show
She didn't want the neighbors to know
Candy had to quit the show

Well, Candy didn't care, when she started her affair
With the studs and the mares of the night
Are you satisfied?
Teddy knows the rule, of the underground school
He's got Candy wrapped 'round his finger
Are you satisfied?

Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you don't get your tricks off the phone
Mother said: quit the show
She didn't want the neighbors to know

Candy's going bad, got a room to let
Candy's going bad, got a pimp named Ted
Candy's going bad, Long Green's where it's at
Candy's going bad, she got stars in her head

Candy took the pearls, got ahead of the girls
Got on top and found the secret entrance
Are you satisfied?

Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you come home dressed in Peacock clothes
Mother said: quit the show
I don't want the neighbors to know

Candy's going bad, got a room to let
Candy's going bad, got a pimp named Ted
Candy's going bad, Long Green's where it's at
Candy's going bad, she got stars in her head

Candy's going bad, got a room to let
Candy's going bad, she got stars in her head

She Flies on Strange Wings

Lonely is the night without you
Just as lonely as the shepherd without sheep
And where flies the falcon,
In the high sweet air
Without hunting this Sprane Valleys deer

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

She takes off when she desires
Silence grows on her lips
She can bring you so much higher
She spreads love on all her trips, yeah

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Woke up this morning
And this feeling came to my head
To fly with her from sky to sky
'Cause my mind seemed to be dead
So I floated up towards her
On my mutilated wings
But all the blackness sings against me now
It's the lady of the strange wings
Yeah, it's the lady of the strange wings
Ooh, it's the lady of the strange wings
Ooh, it's the lady, it's the lady, lady of the strange wings

Ooh oh

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Kill Me (Ce Soir)

Remember that song called "Kill me"
From Vick Timm's last LP
Too much of a risk
For a golden disc

The price he paid for money
Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

Sing your song, you can't go wrong
No need for alarm
Attempted his business adviser
You'll come to no harm
He didn't mention the sniper
Ce soir, Ce soir

Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

The news is read, the meaning spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Come on maman, bend down your head
Turn off the light and hold me tight

And just sing on, immortal song
A lecture on political chicanery
Fini belle vie, bonne nuit
Remember that song called "Kill Me"
Of people's rape
Recorded on tape

Bought shame to the presidency
Tonight, tonight
One more point for human right

Remember that song "Kill Me"
Once used by a man from Galilee
He had nothin' to lose
He was king of the Jews
Secured his place in history
Ce soir, Ce soir

Assassination d'un provocateur
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed

Turn off the light and hold me tight
The news is read, the voice is spread
Come on maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song

Fini belle vie
Vick played the part, with all his heart
He wasn't prepared for the shock
When howling lead
A new martyr for the book of rock
Bit into his head
Ce soir, Ce soir

Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

Mad Loves Comin

You want different positions
To keep your love-life successful
And you want a happy ending
With lots of stud potential
Reliable and perpetual
Without being distasteful, oh wee

My papa says it's not the size
Nor the way it's looking, it's the way it moves
On stiletto shoes, papa sure improves
But I bet he's just trying to be commercial

So let me say something simple to you
Before we get to do the do: Baby I love you
That takes care of that, you can take off your hat
You and me gotta be the lucky few

There's a tourist in the city
That went and lost his lady
On the purpose if you ask me
He'll have to find a reason
To cover-up the treason
Meanwhile let's hope the night never ends [Repeat: x2]
?cos mad love's coming, I know mad love is coming
Mad love is coming, I know mad love is coming
Mad mad love is coming, I know mad love is coming

Out on the corner, city boy routine
Right on the border of enemy territory
This is how far you've come, this is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out, makin' me shout

And it's cruel cruel, street's a mean school
Too many blows, below the belt, you know
This is how far you've come, this is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out, makin' me shout
Mad love is comin', not too soon
On beds that sail outta the blue
Mad love is comin', all day through
Who's afraid of that romance is doomed

Mad love's comin', all over your walls
Into your life, it creepy crawls
This is how far you've come, this is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out, makin' me shout

Mad love is

Leather

Love at first sight, lasts all night
Baby from the moment you open my fly
It's been alright, for my gesundheit
And baby from the moment you cross my eye

Here it comes, here it comes
I don't know where to go, it's a sadomasochism
Sharper than a razor she hurts me with a laser-beam
Medieval server, she do me no favor in between

She stole, she stole my hard-earned money
I got the straps on, you're having your fun
Baby from the moment you beat my drum
It's been alright, for my gesundheit

Baby from the moment you open my eye
Here it comes, here it comes
I don't know where to go, it's a sadomasochism
Sharper than a razor she hurts me with a laser-beam

Medieval server, she do me no favor in between
She stole, she stole my dignity

Burnin' leather, keeps her together
Burnin' leather, keeps her together
Burnin' leather, keeps her together
Burnin' leather, keeps her together

Clear Night Moonlight

I want to go ahead until I just run out of gas
I want to beat the road, with four-wheel thunder
There's a Cadillac dealer in Kansas City counting money
And the highway patrol are going nowhere
Don't say no, don't make me grieve
Don't say no, you gotta feel the breeze
On a clear night, moonlight
You and me and the car
Under a thousands stars
That's all the magic we need

So, don't you go turnin' my dream into a nightmare
see'mon, let's ride right out of here
I magine you and I, leavin' it all behind
Find another world, beyond the turnpike
There'll be lots of people uptight
Maybe some F.B.I., and your daddy screamin' bloody murder
Don't say no, don't make me grieve
Don't say no, you gotta feel the breeze
Picture the two of us, we're so happy, so much in love
You know how the story goes
At the end of the rainbow
There's a bag of gold

Lost and Found

From the Album:
* Cut

I am not an object
Somethin' you throw away
I am no piece of junk
That's been left on a stationary train
I want you to get a message
To the one that's gonna set me free
Tell her to hurry - tell her to recognize me
'Cause I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll live on a shelf
Of the lost

The Devil Made Me Do It

All set, court's in session
This judge, got no compassion
Witness, show me your right hand
I swear, nothing but the truth now

I was alright till she came along
I was alright, then it all went wrong

The devil made me do it, oh, oh, oh,oh
It was the act of a man possessed, now
The devil made me do it, oh, oh ,oh, oh
Your honor, I am innocent

D.A.'s, got a mighty strong case
Lawman, saw the whole thing
Confess, yeah I stole that fur coat
Confess, yeah I stole a BMW
Confess, I was only trying, to keep my baby satisfied
Bullshit, that's the truth now
Bullshit, so help me God

I was alright till she came along
I was alright, then it all went wrong

The devil made me do it, oh, oh, oh,oh
It was an act of a man possessed, now
The devil made me do it , oh, oh, oh, oh
Your honor, I am innocent

You should have seen her slide out of her negligee
Her skin was hot, touch intoxicating
And if you were me , you would have done the same
So spare me the gutter, save me from the ball and chain

The devil made me do it, oh, oh, oh, oh
It was an act of a man possessed now
The devil made me do it, oh, oh, oh, oh
Your honor, I am innocent

Quiet Eyes

Tony, my head is on a pillow
Clock strikes, it's the count of four
Four hours of tossin' and turnin'
In a big brass bed

I've tried all the tricks in the book now
But I just can't sleep no more
Tony, what's happenin' to me
I'm tired and I'm cold
Somehow I'm imagining things
Movin' in the shadow
And my face is a painting crying
In the heat of the sun

Let the world outside pay its dues
I'll never know why, no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed and delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes, silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears
Silence, and the night lasted seven years

Meanwhile I'm counting all the hours
And I've counted all the days
On the pages of a calendar
And I threw it all away
Tony, I'm tryin' to make some sense, babe
I'm always tryin' to get through to you
Maybe you're the last one to notice
How much I've been lovin' you

Let the world outside pay its dues
I'll never know why, no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed and delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes, silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears
Silence, and the night lasted seven years

Twilight Zone

Intro:
Somewhere early morning in a hotel room
there's a guy starting to realize
that eternal fate
has turned it's back on him.

It's 2am....

1st Verse:

It's 2 am (it's 2 am)
The fear is gone (the fear is gone)
I'm sitting here waiting (sitting here waiting)
The gun's still warm (the gun's still warm)
Maybe my connection
Is tired of taking chances

Yeah, there's a storm on the loose
Sirens in my head
Wrapped up in silence
All circuits are dead
Cannot decode
My whole life spins into a frenzy

Chorus:
(2 times)
Help I'm steppin' into the Twilight Zone
Place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My becaons been moved
Under moon and star
Where am I to go Now that I've gone too far

(2 times)
Soon You will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone

2nd Verse:

I'm fallin' down a spiral
Destination unknown
Double-crossed messenger
All alone
Can't get no connection
Can't get through where are you?

Well the night weighs heavy
On his guilty mind
This far from
The border line
When the hitman comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated

(chorus)
