Bright Lights
They tell me educate or I’ll be a fool
Well that suits me fine
But I just can’t stand school
Well I got no kick against school you know
But reading books just ain’t my goalA Guy like me should be settling down at my age
But I don’t need security,
I just need the stageI got to see bright lights
I got to have hot nights
I’ll stay up until midnight, to twilight,
Even until daylight to prove, I’m no foolWell I’ve grown up and I know you’ll understand
Wasn’t meant to be no college man
You know this boy has got to live for today
I get off on rock and roll
And that’s where I’ll stayAnd you say my music’s just a little too loud
Well we’re not playing in no basement,
We’re playing for the crowdI got to see bright lights
I got to have hot nights
I’ll stay up until midnight, to twilight,
Even until daylight to prove, I’m no foolAnd you say my music’s just a little too loud
Well we’re not playing in no basement,
We’re playing for the crowdI got to see bright lights
I got to have hot nights
I’ll stay up until midnight, to twilight,
Even until daylight to prove, I’m no foolNo fool, you know I’m no fool
No fool, you know I’m no fool
Now And Then
There’s nothing like the good ol’ days
When hard work sure paid off
A buck was worth a dollar
A simple life that sure was tough
Nowadays the people seem
To care less each year
Truth and pride and honesty
They’ve seemed to disappearNow and then
Let’s take the best of all the times
Now and then
And leave our troubles all behind
Now and then
The past is our experience
The future is our second chance
Now and thenOur standards have increased
And we’ll settle for no less
Our needs fulfilled, we work and play
And then come home to rest
Back then there were no choices
And no equal rights demanding
Just do what your expected
To assure that you’ll stay standingNow and then
Let’s take the best of all the times
Now and then
And leave our troubles all behind
Now and then
The past is our experience
The future is our second chance
To change the worldWe sure have come a long way
Since the days of yesteryear
Our technology increases
Beyond our limits, not our fears
Trails leading to their destinations
Life is like a trip
We’re searching for a better life
But it won’t be without hardshipNow and then
Let’s take the best of all the times
Now and then
And leave our troubles all behind
Now and then
The past is our experience
The future is our second chance
To change the worldTo change the world
The world
To save the world
The world
The Quest
Got a journey
What’s on my mind
Can’t go alone
So I’ve got to find
Find me a woman
Who can share my load
And walk beside me
On an endless roadShe’ll be so tender
Yet like a stone
I will defend her
But she can hold her own
Must have great courage
Must have great strength
No man can hold her
For any time or lengthThere’s a girl and she’s so fine
She’s got a body and she’s got a mind
Open heart and an honest soul
She’s a girl with rock and roll
She’s Brandywine
She’s BrandywineThey say I’ll find her
In the marketplace
And that I’ll know her
By the marks on her face
Three tears and a sun
Will caress her right
And the crescent moon
Only shows at nightThere’s a girl and she’s so fine
She’s got a body and she’s got a mind
Open heart and an honest soul
She’s a girl with rock and rollShe’s got a body
She’s got a mind
She’s got a name
It’s Brandywine
It’s Brandywine
This World
Sitting back watching the world go by
Watching the world go byThis world
I don’t want to believe it
This world
I cannot conceive it
Right out of Hollywood
It doesn’t look real
I don’t know whyYou
You won’t let me be
You’re problems
Keep them away from me
Living and lying, hatred and crying
Where ever I look there’s killing and dying
It has no effect on meSitting back watching the world go by
Watching the world goIsolated from the real world
Wanting ignorance to clear his conscienceThis world
I have no time for this
This world
There’re better things to do
Everything seems fine
I don’t see what the problem is
Cause and effect
Scenes From Last Weeks Episode
[Instrumental]
Broken Dreams
Having a dream you were making love to me
Light of the day brought my senses back to me
And as I awoke
I started to cryI had broken dreams
And a shattered heart
How can I laugh, how can I smile
With my broken dreamsWalking along just enjoying the season
I think of you and then for no reason
Pain in my heart
Ache in my sideCaused my broken dreams
And a shattered heart
How can I laugh, how can I smile
With my broken dreamsGot a new life, now I’ve got a new lover
Life’s just a dream and love’s just another
Pain in my heart
Ache in my sideCaused my broken dreams
And a shattered heart
How can I laugh, how can I smile
With my broken dreams
And a shattered heart
How can I laugh, why should I try
With my broken dreams
It Happens All The Time
Einstein's theories are taught in school
Relative to the norm
With Sigmund Freud and ancient history
And one plus one is twoThey teach us how to read and write
They teach us how to spell
We pick up where they left off
And then we're on our ownA guy and a girl
They fall in love
They have a real good time
They give their hearts
They share their dreams
It happens all the timeThey can teach us how to read and write
They can teach us how to spell
Somehow, Someone always seems to get hurt
In love we're on our ownWhen it's over and love is lost
The tears come out to play
A dangerous game of human emotions
The heart gets left behindA guy and a girl
They fall in love
The good times seem to fade
The same mistakes all over again
It happens all the timeMy advice to myself
In the same situation
Would be to leave, forget the past
Love won't let me goA guy and a girl
They fall in love
They have a real good time
They give their hearts
They share their dreams
It happens all the time
Changes
Good times
Memories of
Take me back
To friends I’ve known
BeforeChanges
Have come into being
Everything’s different
Nothing’s the same
AnymoreWhat’s really changed
What’s not the same
Everything’s different
The places, The names
But what’s really changed
In the end
For You
You thought you’d seen the last of me
You thought you’d never see
The likes of me again
It’s been a while since I set you free
Someday I’m coming back for you my friendI had to leave babe, you know that’s true
Before we put both our lives on the line
I know I told you that I’d stay with you
I didn’t lie, I just changed my mindFor you, for you, for you my friend
Sometime I’ll make you mine
I’ll make you mine again
For you, for you, for you my friend
Sometime I’ll make you mine againFor you, I live my life for you
Money can’t buy happiness
It can buy you fortune and fame
We had no money babe, I must confess
It made me happy just to hear your nameSo whether I’m rich or poor
Count on me coming back your way
You know I’ll have good loving in store
For you, you know I’m coming back to stay
Magic Band
The band steps out onto the stage
With the magic in their hearts
They'll play the songs. They'll make the music
They'll give the magic to
Whoever wants to hear
Whoever lets it inThe piano man plays the familiar chords
The crowd begins to cheer
They clap their hands. The horns come in
The singer sings the song
The power is let loose
The magic rushes inAnd the magic band plays the magic music
Magic fills the air
Music is a song from life
A story to be toldThe night goes on. The sun goes down
The lighters flood the sky
They burn so bright, All joined together
To form a single light
To shine on forever
Through space
And on through timeThe encores are done. The last song's been played
The flames of each lighter, die one by one
And all that remains are the memories of moments
Another day in the park
And the magic band plays the magic music
The music fills the air
The magic band plays the magic music
