Transformer man, transformer man
You run the show
Remote control
Direct the action
with the push of a button
You're a transformer man
Power in your hand
Transformer man, transformer man.
Transformer man, transformer man
Sooner or later you'll have to see
The cause and effect
So many things still left to do
But we haven't made it yet
Every morning
when I look in your eyes
I feel electrified by you. Oh yes.
Transformer man, transformer man
Transformer man
Still in command
You're eyes are shining on a beam
Through the galaxy of love
Transformer man, transformer man
Unlock the secrets
Let us throw off the chains that
Hold you down.
Transformer man, transformer man
Sooner or later
you'll have to learn
The cause and effect
So many things still left to do
But we haven't made it yet
Every morning
when I look in your eyes
I feel electrified by you. Oh yes.
Transformer man, transformer man
Transformer man, transformer man
When I was a young boy,
it weren't too late
I had me a Buick, was a '48
Yeah, tons and tons
of rollin' steel
With a long black hoad
and four big wheels.
Well, I worked so hard
I flunked out of school
And everybody said
I was a teenage fool
Meanwhile I wrote me
a new set of rules
'Bout how to get gone
and how to be cool.
Well, we hit the road
like a ton o' bricks
With an old guitar
and a few hot licks
We were rockin' in the city
and rockin' in the sticks
Didn't make much money
but we had a lotta kicks.
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.
Well, then one day
a city slicker walked up
Said, son, I'm gonna make you
a million bucks
Gonna fly around the country
in a big ol' plane
Gonna get a lotta drugs,
gonna feel no pain.
Well, I knew we were breakin'
that highway rule
When we pulled outta town
a little low on fuel
That big ol' plane
fell from the sky
Me and the boys
kissed the world goodbye
Yeah, me and the boys
kissed the world goodbye.
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone
Get gone, get gone
Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.
There's just one thing
I'm askin' of you
There's just one thing,
baby, I'm askin' of you
Don't ever leave me, baby
No matter what you do
There's just one thing
I'm askin' of you.
Don't take your love away from me
Don't take your love away from me
'Cause if you ever leave me, baby
How wrong you would be
Don't take your love away from me.
When I make a promise,
you can bet that it's true
When I make a promise,
baby, you can bet that it's true
So put your chips down, baby
Empty your pockets, too
'Cause when I make a promise,
you can bet that it's true.
Don't take your love away from me
Don't take your love away from me
'Cause if you ever leave me, baby
How wrong you would be
Don't take your love away from me.
Take my advice
Don't listen to me
It ain't paradise
But it used to be
There was a time
When the river was wide
And the water
came running down
To the rising tide
But the wooden ships
Were just a hippie dream
Just a hippie dream.
Don't bat an eye
Don't waste a word
Don't mention nothin'
That could go unheard
'Cause the tie-dye sails
Are the screamin' sheets
And the dusty trail
Leads to blood
in the streets
And the wooden ships
Are a hippie dream
Capsized in excess
If you know what I mean.
Just because
it's over for you
Don't mean
it's over for me
It's a victory
for the heart
Every time
the music starts
So please
don't kill the machine
Don't kill the machine
Don't kill the machine.
Another flower child
goes to seed
In an ether-filled
room of meat-hooks
It's so ugly
So ugly.
A funny thing
happened yesterday
I felt the pressure
in a brand new way
It kept hitting me
from all directions
I got this feeling
I was cracking up
My knees were shaking and
I couldn't close my eyes
I fought to gain control
and make corrections
A funny thing
happened yesterday
I felt the pressure
in a TV way.
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me.
You watch the box
and the video jocks
If you could talk that
could even be you up there
That's why you need
max head room
Too much pressure
for peace on earth
Too much tryin'
to get your money's worth
Too much dying
The Eldorado,
the Mercedes Benz
The job security
that never ends.
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me.
I feel the pressure
building every night
One of these days I'm gonna
go out like a light
Oh, baby
I feel the pressure
building every night
One of these days I'm gonna
go out like a light.
Hey! What's that you got on?
You're sure looking good tonight!
Where'd you pick that up anyway?
Wow! You're looking beautiful!
Hey! You are somethin' else tonight,
so skin tight.
Yeah! Come on, lets go out! Come On!
Why do we have to hate
Why do we incinerate
Why don't we illuminate
Around the world.
Why don't we illuminate
Why don't we illuminate
Around the world.
I used to watch "Highway Patrol"
Whittlin' with my knife
But the thought never struck me
I'd be black and white for life
I was raised on law and order
I a community of strife
Became a restless boarder
And I never took a wife.
I went lookin' for Khaddafi
Aboard Air Force One
But I never did find him
And the C.I.A. said Son,
You'll never be a hero
Your flyin' days are done
It's time for you to go home now
Stop sniffin' that smokin' gun.
I was travellin' with my family
In the Mideast late one night
In the hotel all was quiet
The kids were out like little lights
Then the street was filled with jeeps
There was an explosion to the right
They chanted "Death to America"
I was feelin' like a fight.
So I ran downstairs
And out into the street
Someone kicked me in the belly
Someone else kissed my feet
I was Rambo in the disco
I was shootin' to the beat
When they burned me in effigy
My vacation was complete.
