(Clark/Collen/Elliott/Lange/Savage)

Ooh we ooh 
Ooh wee ooh 
In the beginning 
God made the land 
Then He made the water and creatures, then He made man 

He was born with a passion, love and hate 
A restless spirit with a need for a mate 
But there was somethin' that was missin', somethin' lost 
So he came with the answer, here's what it cost 

One part love, one part wild 
One part lady, one part child 
I give you 

Women! women! - Lots of pretty women 
Men! men! - They can't live without them 
Women! women! - Lots of pretty women 
Men! men! - They can't live without them 

And in the garden, lust began 
The animal instinct, the wanton man 
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite 
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite 

It was one part love, one part child 
One part lover, one part wild 
I give you 

Repeat Chorus 

Skin on skin 
Let the love begin 
Women! 

[guitar solo] 

It was one part love, one part wild 
One part lover, one part child 
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice 
A whole lotta somethin' you can't sacrifice 
I give you 

Hair, eyes, skin on skin 
Legs - Legs 
Thighs - Thighs 

What's that spell? 
(Spell? what's that spell?) 
((What's that spell?)) 
What's that spell? 
((What's that spell?)) 
(Women, women) 
Oh! oh! oh! 
Oh! oh! oh! 

Women - Women 
Women 
Callin' every girl 
Women women 
All around the world 
Women - Women! 
Women 
Oh, we can't live without them 
Women women 

[guitar solo]

A wild ride, over stony ground 
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town 
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid 
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame 
I burn for you 

I gotta feel it in my blood whoa oh 
I need your touch don't need your love whoa oh 

And I want and I need 
And I lust animal 
And I want and I need 
And I lust animal 

Cry wolf, given mouth to mouth 
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour 
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust 
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust 
I never sleep 

Repeat Bridge 

Repeat Chorus 

Huh! 
Ah! 
Cry wolf, baby cry tough 
Gonna hunt you like an, an, an, an, an, animal 
Gonna take your love 'n' run

And I lust animal 
Take me, ame me

(Clark/Collen/Elliott/Lange/Savage)

If you've got love in your sights 
Watch out, love bites 

When you make love, do you look in the mirror? 
Who do you think of, does he look like me? 
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever? 
Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see? 
Ooh babe ooh yeah 

When you're alone, do you let go? 
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show? 
Ooh c'mon 

I don't wanna touch you too much baby 
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy 
I know you think that love is the way you make it 
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it 
No! 

Love bites, love bleeds 
It's bringin' me to my knees 
Love lives, love dies 
It's no surprise 
Love begs, love pleads 
It's what I need 

When I'm with you are you somewhere else? 
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself? 
When you wake up will you walk out? 
It can't be love if you throw it about 
Ooh babe 

I don't wanna touch you too much baby 
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy 

Repeat Chorus 

[guitar solo] 

Ooh yeah 

Repeat Bridge 

Love bites, love bleeds 
It's bringin' me to my knees 
Love lives, love dies 

Repeat Chorus 

If you've got love in your sights 
Watch out, love bites 
Yes it does 
It will be hell 

. . .

Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp

Ya better come inside when you're ready to 
But no chance if ya don't wanna dance 
You like four letter words when you're ready to 
But then you won't 'cos you know that you can 

You got it, but are you gettin' it? 

You say that love is won when you get some 
But then your finger won't trigger the gun 

You know you (ya) can't stop it 
so don't rock it 
You know you got it 

Hey, but are you gettin' it? 
really gettin' it? 
Come get it from me 

Gimme all of you lovin' - ev'ry little bit 
Gimme all that you got - ev'ry bit of it 
Ev'ry bit of your lovin - oh, c'mon live a bit 
Never want it to stop 

Yeah, but are you gettin' it? - Armageddon it! 
Ooh, really gettin' it? - Yes, Armaggedon it! 

You try comin' on when you need some... 
But then you don't 'cos you already did 
Yeah, you jangle your jewels while your shakin' ya... 
And drive the pretty boys outta their heads 

You got it, but are you gettin' it? 

You flash your bedroom eyes like a jumpin' jack... 
Then play it pretty with a pat on the back 

You know you (ya) can't stop it 
So don't rock it 
You know you got it 
Hey, but are you gettin' it? 
Ooh, really gettin' it? 
Come get it from me 

Repeat Bridge 

Repeat Chorus 

C'mon, Steve, get it 

[guitar solo] 
Take it, take it, take it from me 
I got an itchy finger following me 
Pull it, pull it, c'mon trigger the gun 
'Cos the best is (a) yet to come, I say 
'Cos the best is yet to come 

Are you gettin' it? Really gettin' it? 
Yes, are you gettin' it, really gettin' it? 
Oh, come get it from me 

Gimme all of you lovin' - ev'ry little bit 
Gimme all that you got - ev'ry bit of it 
Ev'ry bit of your lovin' - Oh come on live a bit 
Never want it to stop - Oh, are you getting it? 
Gimme all of your lovin' - Ooh really gettin' it? 
Gimme all that you got - Oh are you getting it? 
Gimme all of your lovin' - Oh live a bit 
Gimme all that you got - Whoa, live a bit 

You've got to live it - gimme all of your lovin' 
Ooh baby live it - gimme all that you got 
C'mon and give it - ev'ry bit of your lovin' 
Oh come on and give it - Never want it to stop 
Oh are you gettin' it? - Gimme all of your lovin' 
Ooh really gettin' it? - Gimme all that you got 
Oh are you gettin' it? - Ev'ry bit of your lovin' 
Oh live a bit - Never want it to stop

(Clark/Collen/Elliott/Lange/Savage)

Feelin' like it's all over, feelin' like there's no love 
Feelin' like it's not easy, breathin' life in the dust 
On a countdown to zero take a ride on the nightmare machine 

There ain't gonna be heroes 
There ain't gonna be anything 
Oh 
Here it comes, here comes the night 
Here it comes, hell in the night 
Here it comes, here comes the night 

When we all fall down 
When we walk into silence 
When we shadow the sun 
When we surrender to violence 
Oh 
Then the damage is done 
Put away that gun! 

I don't wanna be there 
I don't wanna be anywhere 
Oh! 

Repeat Bridge 

That's right! 
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for? 
We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel 

[guitar solo] 

And I ain't gonna fight no more no way! 
On a countdown to zero 
Take a ride on the nightmare machine 
There ain't gonna be heroes 
(Whoa) 
There ain't gonna be anything 
No! 

Repeat Bridge 

Don't ya know that's right! 

Repeat Chorus 

And (a) I ain't gonna fight no more 

(Stop) 
Stop fightin' for the gods of war 
(Stop fightin' for the gods of war) 
Yeah what the hell we fightin' for? 
(What in the hell we fightin' for?) 
We're fightin' with the gods of war 
Heavy!

(Run for cover) 
Don't shoot! - Shoot!

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right

Hey little miss heaven on earth 
Whoa, won't you walk this way but I see a red alert 
Oh, my senses say keep away 
So don't shoot! 

Don't shoot shotgun

A little midnight madness

So wild 'n' unpredictable 
Step aside 
'Cos you're, you're shooting wide

Undercover, she's so shameless
