I've read it all, it's black and white
The spectrum made a shade I like.
The crimson rays are ruby bright
Technicolor light.
Red! I want red, there's no substitute for red.
Red! Paint it red, green ain't mean compared to red.
You don't know what it does to me,
My crimson intensity
I'm haunted by the mystery,
The mystey of red.
Red knocks 'em dead,
Some like it hot, I like it read.
Red is my lover, got it covered
Red is my number, sure as a coma
Red is my drummer, and I hear red thunder
Move over brother,
Red's a motherfu...(cker)
(Red! Red!)
Thats' what I said...
(Red! Red!)
Come on to bed
(Red! Red!)
Gimme' that expensive spread..

Passin' time in so many ways, oh yeah!

Yeah, you remember this one?
Well, I remember when I was seventeen
My father told me, "Pick your dreams."
He said life ain't easy as it seems
He said, "When you get older you'll see what I mean."
Well, at the time, I wanted to be twenty-one
It seemed the right age for havin' fun
But when I got there I was still too young
Twenty-five seemed to be the one
But right now I live my life from day to day
Well I wouldn't have it any other way
I ain't twelve and I ain't sixty-four, no
I spend my time like there ain't gonna be no more
You know that sweet girl you've been chasin' 'round
She got you hooked 'long as she keeps you down
But I know what happens, baby, once she comes around
It won't be long and you'll be back on the town
You gotta live your life from day to day
I wouldn't have it any other way
Well, I ain't twelve and I ain't sixty-four, no
Spend my time like there ain't gonna be no more, oh
Oh
Keep on rollin'
Keep on rollin'
I make it last, I make it last
I make it last and last
I make it last, I make it last
I make it last and last
Because it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright, oh yeah
Look out baby, I'm comin to town
I'm gonna tear it up, I'm gonna tear it down
I play long, I play hard
I play for keeps, with no holds barred
When I rock, baby and I roll
And I do it out of control
I'm reckless
And I do anything that hasn't been done
I'll do it for money, I'll do it for fun
And I do get busted, I don't understand
I'll be your lover baby, I'm a back-door man
Yeah, yeah, yes
I'm fast and I take chances
I'm a fool for one night romances
'Cause I'm reckless
Gary Pihl
Well, I want it now, I can't wait my turn
I've been fried, but I won't get burned
Well, I live my life for the flash
Reach for the edge, but I won't crash
Like all the rest
The stronger the danger
Well, I could care less
Well it leaves me breathless
And reckless
Reckless
Reckless
I break all the rules
I wanna live for today
I'm Reckless
I'm Reckless
Reckless
Reckless

It ain't no kind of fair to me
It's all give and take, and you just take
And I can't take it, you see
Well, I'm givin' up on love this time
Me and my friends, we'll do just fine
Because
I've done everything for you
Oh yeah, you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothin' for me
You've done nothin' for me
Yeah, you knew that someday I'd have a whole lotta money
And be a millionaire
Yeah, but when that didn't happen overnight
I found out how much you really cared
Yeah, all you want is a whole lotta money
All the rest is just jivin' honey
I've done everything for you
Aw lord, you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
I've done everything, you've done nothin' for me
(You've done nothin' for me)

And I'm tradin' you in on a pair of wings
I've done everything for you
Yeah, yeah, you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
Baby, you've done nothing for me
You've done nothing for me
Now I'm going out on the town tonight and get as wild as I can be
I'm gonna find out what it's really like to be loose, high and free
Yeah and I don't care what them people say
'Cause I'll change my mind, i'm changin' to stay
I've done everything for you
Baby, baby you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
You, you've done nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
Everything, but nothin' for me
I've done everything for you
Baby, you've done nothin' for me
You've done nothin' for me
You, you've done nothin' for me
You've done nothin'

Oooh baby, I love you
It's saturday night
Don't it feel like a Sunday in some ways
If you had any sense
You'd maybe go away, for a few days
And be that as it may
You can only say, that you love me
You are just a young girl
You're working your way thru the phoneys
And coffee on, well milk's gone
It's a sad light unfading
And you're self, you touch
Ooh not too much, baby
They say it's degrading
Your friends they are making
A pop star or two every evening
And you know that seems backward,
They can't see the patterns they're weaving
Your skin's so light
You'd like maybe to go to bed soon
So just close your eyes
If you're to rise up before noon
And high heels and car wheels
Yeah, the losers, they are groovin'
Yeah
Ohh, your dreams, strange things
Images are moving.
All around
Young girl blues
It's Saturday night
Don't it feel like a Sunday in some ways
If you had any sense
You'd be there lady, awww baby for a few days
And be that as it may
Well you can only say that I'm so lonely
And you are just a young girl
You're working your way
Just a young girl
Young girl blues
Young girl blues
Watch out for the phoneys
I say, you are just a young girl!
ooh yeah
You are just a young girl!
ooh yeah baby
You're just working your way
You're just working your way
Through the phoneys, yeah
You've got the young girl blues
You've got the young girl blues

If you get lonely on your daddy's farm
Just remember I don't live too far
And there's a red bridge that arcs the bay, yeah
You'll be at my place in less that a day
So get on your bad motor scooter and ride
Up over to my place and stay all night
First thing in the morning we'll be feeling all right
So get on your bad motor scooter and ride
Ooh, the last I seen your face
I swore that no one would take your place
Now since you've been gone I've been feelin' bad, yeah
I'd come out to your place (but) I'm afraid of your dad
So you get on your bad motor scooter and ride
Up over to my place and stay all night
First thing in the morning we'll be feeling all right
So get on your bad motor scooter and ride
Ride, ride, ride
Come on baby, ooh yeah
Crank it on up
Get on your bad motor scooter
. . .
