    Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Criminal Tango
    GOING UNDERGROUND 


    Some people might say my life is in a rut 
    I'm quite happy with what I've got 
    People might say that I should strive for more 
    I'm so happy I can't see the point 
    Something's happening here today 
    A show of strength with your boys brigade 
    And I'm so happy and you're sokind 
    You want more money of course I don't mind 
    To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes 
    and the public gets what the public wants 
    But I want nothing this society's got 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow 

    Some people might need some tension to relax 
    Me, I'm too busy dodging the flak 
    What you see is what you get 
    You've made your bed you better lie in it 
    You choose your leaders and your place your trust 
    As their lies wash you down and their promises rust 
    You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns 
    And the public gets what the public wants 
    But I want nothing this society's got 
    I'm going undergroud 
    We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow 

    We talk and we talk until my head explodes 
    I turn on the news, my body froze 
    The braying sheep on the TV screen makes this boy shout, makes this boy scream 
    Going underground 
    We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout 

    And the public gets what the public wants 
    But I want nothing this society's got 
    I'm going undergroud 
    We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout 

    And the public gets what the public wants 
    But I want nothing this society's got 
    I'm going undergroud 
    We'll let the brass bands play and feet start to pound 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow 
    I'm going underground 
    We'll let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow 
    I'm going underground 
    I'm going underground 
    I'm going underground 

    WHO ARE THE MYSTERY KIDS? 


    Marcellino, Casanova, little angel from Laslow street 
    Cinderella, she's a crossover, she got no father in history 
    Got no good life, got no love life 
    Got no future, got no hopes and dreams 
    In a cruel world, in a cool world 
    You're a number, you're a mystery 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 
    Little Jimmy, hit and run boy 
    You can trust him, he'll take the strain 
    I remember when he said to me 
    There's a war going through my brain 
    And everyone still talks about the time 
    Sweet Mary drank all that wine 
    And I just cannot believe what I see 
    They're so strange they're a mystery 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 

    And I say fareewell as the lights go out 
    In the dark stairwell, can't take anymore 

    Marcellino, Casanova, little angel from Laslow street 
    Cinderella, she's a crossover, she got no father in history 
    In a cruel world, in a cool world 
    You're a number, you're a mystery 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 
    Who are the mystery, mystery kids, the mystery kids ? 


    BANQUET 


    Some get the gravy, some get the gristle 
    Some get the marrow bone 
    Some get nothing though there's plenty to spare 
    Some watch the paint peel, some watch their kids grow 
    Some watch their stocks and bonds 
    Waiting for that big deal American Dream 
    Took my dream down by the sea 
    Sailing yachts and lobster pots and sunshine 
    Logs and sails and shell oil pails 
    Down where the waterskiers glide 

    Some turn to Elvis, some turn to Africa 
    Some turn to rambling round 
    For a clean sky and a drinking stream 
    Who let the greedy in ? 
    Who left the needy out ? 
    Who made the salty sea ? 
    Tell them we're hungry for a sweeter fare 

    Took my dream down by the sea 
    Sailing yachts and lobster pots and sunshine 
    Logs and sails and shell oil pails 
    Down where the waterskiers glide 

    Some get the gravy, some get the gristle 
    Some get the marrow bone 
    Some get nothing though there's plenty to spare 
    Some watch the paint peel, some watch their kids grow 
    Some watch their stocks and bonds 
    Waiting for that big deal American Dream 


    KILLER ON THE LOOSE 


    Fear on the street, panic in the alley 
    You mustn't walk alone tonight 
    Blood on the wall like a river cuts a valley 
    The victim is an awful sight 
    There's a killer on the loose, knows just what he's doing 
    He's built around a heart of fire 
    Killer on the loose lurking in the shadows 

    Nobody knows exactly how he looks 
    But his picture's stamped on everyone's mind 
    You never see his face, attacks from the back 
    You better watch out behind 

    There's a killer on the loose, knows just what he's doing 
    He's built around a heart of fire 
    Killer on the loose lurking in the shadows 
    There's a killer on the loose, knows just what he's doing 
    He's built around a heart of fire 
    Somebody screams that there's a killer on the loose 

    There's a killer on the loose, knows just what he's doing 
    He's built around a heart of fire 
    Somebody screams that there's a killer on the loose 


    DO ANYTHING YOU WANNA DO 


    I'm gonna break out of the city 
    Leave the people here behind 
    Searching for adventure 
    It's the kind of life to find 
    Tired of doing day jobs 
    With no thanks for what I do 
    I know I must be someone 
    Now I'm gonna find out who 
    Why don't you ask them what they expect from you ? 
    Why don't you tell them what you're gonna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 

    I don't need no politicians to tell me things I shouldn't be 
    Neither no opticians to tell me what I oughta see 
    No-one tells you nothing even when you know they know 
    They tell you what you should be 
    They don't like to see you grow 

    Why don't you ask them what they expect from you ? 
    Why don't you tell them what you're gonna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 

    Why don't you ask them what they expect from you ? 
    Why don't you tell them what you're gonna do 
    You get so lonely, maybe it's better that way 
    It's not you only, 'cause you got something to say 
    Do anything you wanna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 
    Do anything you wanna do 


    RESCUE 


    I shall be rescued someday 
    So many empty days 
    And nobody told me 
    Need to be rescued today 
    It's been a thinking day 
    And I haven't done badly 
    Haven't done badly how slow some days can go 
    Think I've been dreaming of some people I don't even know 

    Someday I'm sure to see the sun 
    And when my time has come 
    I'll think of you always 
    I see your face through the tears 
    I'm gonna try for you 
    But nobody told me 

    Nobody told me how slow some days can go 

    Think I've been dreaming of some people I don't even know 


    YOU GOT ME RIGHT THROUGH THE HEART 


    Baby there are pretty young boys 
    With shiny new toys that make the most noise 
    The way you look you can easily afford 
    To slam the door on any given nightstore 
    In a world where they put you on trial 
    Flick your hair, flash your smile 
    Get what you want, don't want what you got 
    But maybe be a little bit shy 
    You got me right through the heart 
    You got me right through the heart 
    You got me right through the heart 
    But you get it, right slap bang through the middle of your heart 

    Some time when you're feeling alone 
    Won't you call me at home or answer your phone 
    When you're free you can come and see me 
    Any time you feel the need 
    Or want to watch me bleed 
    In a world where they put you on trial 
    Flick your hair, flash your smile 
    Get what you want, don't want what you got 
    But maybe be a little bit shy 

    You got me right through the heart 
    You got me right through the heart 
    You got me right through the heart 
    But you get it, right slap bang through the middle of your heart 
    You got me right through the heart 
    But you get it, right slap bang through the middle of your heart 


    BULLDOG 


    Sheepdog standing in the rain 
    Bullfrog doing it again 
    Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles 
    What makes you think you're something special when you smile ? 
    Childlike no-one understands 
    Jack-knife in your sweaty hands 
    Some kind of innocence is measured out in years 
    You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    If you're lonely you can talk to me 
    Big man walking in the park 
    Wigwam frightened of the dark 
    Some kind of loneliness is measured out in you 
    You think you know it but you haven't got a clue 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    If you're lonely you can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    If you're lonely you can talk to me 

    Sheepdog standing in the rain 
    Bullfrog doing it again 
    Some kind of innocence is measured out in years 
    You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    If you're lonely you can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    You can talk to me 
    If you're lonely you can talk to me 
    [repeat to fade] 


    RUNNER 


    Through the night...through the dawn, 
    Behind you another runner is born. 
    Don't look back, you've been there. 
    See the mist as your breath hits the air. 
    And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some; 
    Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum. 

    Through the night...through the dawn, 
    Behind you another runner is born. 
    Don't look back, you've been there. 
    Feel the mist as your breath hits the air. 
    And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some; 
    Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum. 

    And you will run your time, a shooting star across the sky. 
    And you will surely cross the line, to pass on the flame. 

    Sun come up...sun go down. 
    Hear the beat, see the sweat on the ground. 
    Watch your step, keep your cool, 
    Though you can't see what's in front of you. 
    And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some; 
    Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum. 

    And you will run your time, a shooting star across the sky. 
    And you will surely cross the line, to pass on the flame, pass on the flame. 

    Through the night...through the dawn, 
    Behind you another runner is born. 
    Don't look back, you've been there. 
    Feel the mist as your breath hits the air. 
    And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some; 
    Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum. 

    And you will run your time, a shooting star across the sky. 
    And you will surely cross the line. 

    And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some; 
    Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum. 

    And you will run your time, a shooting star across the sky. 
    And you will surely cross the line.
