Quiet Riot - Condition Critical Album Lyrics

Sign Of The Times

Well I have street sense radar
Ooh, is supposed be news
You better lock up your daughters
You never know when we're due

Good news, bad news
It's all the same
Addicts on main streets
They give us the blame

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We're a sign of the times
Having fun ain't no crime
We're a sign of the times
Having fun all the time, yeah

Great impersonators
We broke all the rules
We laugh with our masks on
The joke is on you

You're getting furry
It does you no good
It's the same old story
It's a human zoo

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We're a sign of the times
Having fun ain't no crime
We're a sign of the times
Having fun all the time, yeah

My, my, my, my, yeah

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!

Cha!
Cha!

I see a sign up ahead
Got it's lights flashing red
I can see you're the same
These are the words that I read

Long live rock and roll (Roll!)
Long live rock and roll (Roll!)
Long live rock and roll
It's gonna save your soul

Good news, bad news
It's all the same
Addicts on main streets
Please, please give us a break

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We're a sign of the times
Having fun ain't no crime
We're a sign of the times
Having fun all the time

Hey!
We're just a sign of the times
We're just a sign of the times
We're just a sign of the times, yeah
We're a sign of the times
Having fun all the time
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Party All Night

Hang loose
Party

Got my head to the grindstone
I'm trying to act like a fool
My head is a lampshade
They can't find me at school

Well I'm an animal
Yes I'm a cannonball
They say I'm out for blood
One thing I wanna do is

Party all night (Oh-oh!)
Party all night (Oh-oh-oh!)
Party all night (Yeah!)
All night long

Driving right way on the wrong side
A bit too much to drink
Women in the backseat
And they don't know what to think

They say I've lost my head
You'll probably end up dead
But they're too blind to see
What's a party to me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Is to party all night (Oh-oh!)
Let's party all night (Oh-oh-oh!)
Party all night (Yeah!)
All night long

Uh!

Let's have a good time, good time

C'mon

Everybody's parties
I'm on a one way cruise
Lookin' for trouble
We got nothing to lose

They're on the telephone
They're trying to send me home
We're gonna pull the plug
We've got a new kind of school

Let's party all night
Let's party all night
Party all night
Let's party all night

(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

Let's party all night (Oh!)
(We're party animals, baby)
Let's party all night (Oh-oh-oh!)
(We've got nothing to lose)
Let's party all night
All night long, yeah!

Let's party all night
Let's party boys

Winners Take All

Life's been good
Life's been bad
Now I know
What I had
Has taken it's toll on me

Yes we give
And we take
What we get
Is what we make
Believe that dreams come true

Life is crazy
We're not fools, no, no

The price is high
When you keep the score
Take your souls
And your goals
To the top

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

We have loved
Burned by fate
But for once
Set the record straight
Time does heal all wounds

You have laughed
We have cried
Paid our dues
Yes we're turned the tide
Mistakes are far and few

We need no guidance
Our aim is true

Down the road
There were many tolls
But we know
Cause we've grown
What we need

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

The price is high
When you keep the score
Take your souls
And your goals
To the top

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

Together we stand
We won't take no more
Cause we're winners
And winners take all

Na, na, na-na-na na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na

Na, na, na-na-na na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na

Na, na, na-na-na na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na

Na, na, na-na-na na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na

Condition Critical

Oh the tension's mounting
The pressure starts to show
All the men in haunting
Please don't let me go

(Don't go)
Try to free my body
(Don't go)
Try to strap me down
(Don't go)
These'll never break me
(Don't go)
Free wheel to look at me

Condition critical
I'm feeling physical
Condition critical
Now I'm really cynical

The bells they are ringing
Or is it in my head
My nerves numb understanding
I'm falling out of bed

(Don't go)
So call it paranoia
(Don't go)
I don't see it that way
(Let's go)
You say I adore ya
(Hell no)
We're gonna rock they way

Condition critical
I'm feeling physical
Condition critical
Now I'm really cynical

Ooh ooh

Whips and chains
Don't feel no pain
What's so wrong
I think I'm going out of my head
Over heels
I can't feel
No pain, only pleasure
Get me out
Take me home
Can't you see my condition

Woo-woo-woo

Condition

Condition critical, critical

Condition

Condition critical

Condition critical
I'm feeling physical

Scream And Shout

Yeah
All right
Oh yeah

Oh, come on boys

Your lights sheen nothing like sparkles
You look like you're toast
Put you hands up in the air
Treat me like a host

I wonder if you're ready
But I can't hear you breathe
My nerves are not quite steady
But you will only see that

I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)

Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Take me higher
Higher
Higher
Scream and shout

Coats are smaller in this asylum
I can see what's on your minds
Looking for some truth
Is what you really want to find

Cause we are pure escapists
Yes times are getting tough
We just want to rock and roll
We can't get enough

I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)

Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Take me higher
Higher
Higher
Scream and shout

Hahahahahaha!

You see that from the front row
We are shapes of things to come
You're handcuffed to your seat
And there is no place left to run

Your brains are in our power
We ponder as we feed
A healthy dose of metal
And that's all you'll ever need

I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)
Shout to the car
(Shout to the car)
I want it all, yeah

Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out

Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Out
Out!

Bad Boy

C'mon!
Yeah!

I thought that I was indestructible
But how could I imagine this
I never gave a second thought
Was only hit or miss

While you feed me and it feel so good
Does that mean that wrong is right?
Guess I got the warning
It happened overnight

Honey, it's only nasty
When it's nasty
And you know that it hurts
When it's right

I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
They call me nasty
They call me bad
'Cause I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
There are the good ways
To be a bad, bad boy

I'm a bad, bad boy
I'm a bad, bad boy
I'm a bad, bad boy

Well my behaviour has been in question
Since the day that I was born
I get on my knees to love and to please
Now you've been warned, yeah

Pay the price if you don't ignite
Now they're trying to pick and choose
You may be the most and know the cost
Yes, come to you

Oh your eyes are on me now
My defence must be bad somehow

Bad boy
I'm a bad boy
Call me nasty
They call me bad
But I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
There are the good ways
To be a bad, bad boy

I'm a bad, bad boy

Show me

And it's only nasty
When it's nasty
And you know that it hurts
When it's right, right, right, right, right

I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
I found all the good ways
Oh show me

Bad boy
I'm a bad boy
I found all the good ways
To be a bad

'Cause I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
Please call me nasty
Please call me bad
'Cause I'm a bad boy
I'm a bad boy
I found all the good ways
To be a bad, bad boy

I'm so bad
So so bad
I'm bad
I'm a bad, bad boy
I'm a bad, bad boy

(We Were) Born To Rock

Streets alive
Something in the air
We're writing up a brand new constitution

Don't want to grow old
Age is in your head
Another boy has soul
His soul for rock and roll

(We were) Born to rock
Pull out all the stops
And we scream
We're the voice
Cause we made our choice
And that is
(We were) Born to rock

Yeah
Rock and roll
Yeah

Look out

All alone
The party's just begun
No boss to guard your shoulder generation

Running out of time
With us there's no control
Rockin' is a crime
Boss man says, "No more."

(We were) Born to rock
Pull out all the stops
And we scream
With the voice
Cause we have the choice
(We were) Born to rock

Rock on!
Watch out!
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

(We were) Born to rock
Pull out all the stops

(We were) Born to rock
Pull out all the stops

(We were) Born to rock

We were born to rock!
