Surrender lyrics - Cheap Trick

Mother told me, yes, she told me 
That I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard 
Of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk 
That's going round

Your Mommy's all right 
Your Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender 
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, heeeeeey

Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served 
In the WACS in the Philippines"
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited 
Old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those
I've known her all these years

Your Mommy's all right 
Your Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender 
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, heeeeeey

Whatever happened to all this season's 
Losers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking
Here'd they disappear?
But when I woke up, Mom and Dad 
Are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rollin'
Got my KISS records out

Your Mommy's all right 
Your Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender 
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, heeeeeey

Away
Away

Surrender 
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away

On Top Of The World lyrics - Cheap Trick

You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't 
Get any higher-You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
It wasn't easy- it was hard as hell
You didn't get luck in a wishin' well
Never worked so hard- had so much pain
Wouldn't change for anything
Learned love from a movie screen
He was tough, she was wild at fifteen
Quit school and had no dreams
Wasn't going very far
Then he got religion and she got a god
It's on her back and it's in his job
And it costs lots of money, honey- oh, no
Breakdown nearly every day
Shoulda known- couldn't get away
Got lucky with the girl next door
She was lonely and didn't care
She was young, she was dark, she was fair
Wrapped herself around you with her stare
You'd explode if she would touch you there
Touch you there- touch you there
Tonight, tonight-tonight-tonight
You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't 
Get any higher
You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight
(Can you hear me, can you see me) You're on top of the world tonight

California Man lyrics - Cheap Trick

Goin' to a party, 
meet me on after school.
Well we're goin to a place 
where the jive is really cool.

And if the band stops a playin'
There's a jukebox down the hall.
And with your blue dress on, your folks all gone.
You're sure to give the guys a ball.

[CHORUS:]
Get that real guitar boy shakin',
I'm a California man,
Dance right on till the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man.

Well I rocked my mamma so bad
This a woman's she's a making me mad.
Well I don't care if her legs start aching,
I'm a California man.

[from 2nd chorus on repeat last line 2x]
I'm a California man.

Oh my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name.
Well, my knees keep a knockin,
And my bow tie's bustin' out

When my feet start to fly,
An' my jeans slung way down low.
You know I'm back on my heels and it's making me feel 
Like the king of rock n' roll

[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Repeat 1st Verse]

[Chorus]

High Roller lyrics - Cheap Trick

Jump in my love car
Don't have to go very far
Just far enough to show you a thing or two

I can really swing
The best of everything
And i want to have a thing with you

High roller

And i always get the things that i choose
My, my, my, such a high roller
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you

I'm in the mood for love
You're all i'm thinking of
I'll make you feel alright when we're alone

I can really swing
The best of everything
And i want to have a thing with you

High roller
What i buy is mine
And i always get the things that i choose
My, my, my, such a high roller, is that you?
I knew you'd be here tonight
And i'll make it alright
I'll take real good care of you
I'll tuck you in tonight
And i'll make it alright
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you

You won't see another evening

And for you we sing this final song
For you there is no hope
Sayonara oh suicide hari kari
Kamikaze you won't
See another evening
Goodbye
Bye-bye so long, farewell
See you later....Suicide
Suicide

On The Radio lyrics - Cheap trick

On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
Hey, mister on the radio
Please play my favorite song
The one where she didn't go away
Hey, mister on the radio
You're really my best friend
Please play my favorite song for me
Hey. mister on the radio
You're with me every day
And late at night i turn you on
On the radio
I love the music
On the radio
It's what they're playing
When the radio's on and you
And me get crazy
All of the rock and roll dj's
Got their fingers on the world
'cause they play the songs
That make you and me feel so good
Turn up your radios
And hear the music
On the radio
This song is playin'
When the radio's on
And you and me get crazy
Radio dj monologue:
One minute the back side of midnight
it's me captain gonzo ready to roll hot
wax anything you want to hear
All night its a balmy 73 degrees
in fog city, 71 in the valley 80 in santa cruz (?),
but remember if you snooze you lose
I'm gonna hang with you,
i'll crank it on...
so let me know what you want to hear
phone lines are open now
You say it you know 
i'm gonna play it and be ready 
to win when i tell you to call in and whatever you do
Remember the phrase that pays 
puts your brain on vacation 
and let your toes take over 
keep your pedal to the metal
I'll be back in sixty seconds, 
in the meantime go with it, 
go for it, go nuts, go completely wild.....

Heaven Tonight lyrics - Cheap Trick

Down the line-don't go over
There's a limit-you went over
So much time-time runs out
Time ran out- make it down
Would you like to go to heaven tonight?
Would you like to go to heaven tonight?
Oh oh oh oh
Downed the line-couldn't get much
Couldn't get much- higher if you tried
And tried and tried- you're as guilty
It's the crime- oh, oo, it's a crime
You can never come down, you can never come down
You can never come down, you can never come down
Down inside-you're getting nervous
You've never been this high before- oh no

Stiff Competition lyrics - Cheap Trick

Stiff competition
If i go up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
And when i'm down- you take me higher
There's stiff competition all over the world
I screw you-you screw me-they screw us
Here we go again
Oh- but we have so much fun, so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together-now
I looked hard in your eyes
It was love at first sight
It took me minutes-you're still waiting
Waiting for your turn, you turn
It won't be long
Stiff competition
I work hard-every day of my life
Stiff competition
Get it up-you take me higher
Stiff competition
All over the world
The more i get- the more i like it
The bigger they are- the harder they fall
Again
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition
Stiff competition

Big Eyes lyrics - Cheap Trick

It's not the way you look, no.
It's not the way you walk.
Your eyes are so very good.
You know they're clear and bright,
It's not the color of your hair.

Big eyes
I keep fallin' for those big eyes.
They keep calling my name, big eyes.
I keep fallin' for those big eyes.
They keep calling my name.

You're such a losing cause.
Why don't you go get lost?
Who says you write the laws?
You're such a losing cause,
Go on and get out of here.

Big eyes
I keep fallin' for those big eyes.
They keep calling my name.

You're such a losing cause.
Why don't you go get lost?
Who says you write the laws?
You're such a losing cause,
Go on and get out of here.

It's not the way you look, no.
It's not the way you walk.
Your eyes are so very good.
You know they're clear and bright,
It's not the color of your hair.

Big eyes
I keep fallin' for those big eyes.
[Repeat alternate endings]

They keep calling my name.
[Repeat 4X]

Big eyes, I keep falling for those big eyes.
They keep calling my name.
Big eyes, I keep falling for those big eyes.
I keep calling your name.

Big Eyes.

Downed lyrics - Cheap Trick

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head

I'm gonna live on a mountain
Way down under in Australia
It's either that or suicide
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I got a mind
Over you it's not the first time
Ooh, I got a mind

Rainbow's crawling on a midday sun
But I've been lucky you're the only one
Sunday's calling, you'll be number one
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, you think of Jesus Christ
You walk on water but don't bet your life, oh no
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head

Too many people want to save the world
Another problem is it a boy or girl
Some say the weekend is the only world
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I've got a mind
Over you it's not the first time
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you

Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head

I'll shine up the old brown shoes
Put on a brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work 
If you say that you love me

Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you crying?
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you crying?
Feeling all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you crying?

Feelin' all alone without a friend, you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you crying?
