Jane, you say it's all over For you and me, girl There's a time for love And a time for letting it be, baby Jane, you're playin' a game called Called hard to get by its real name Makin' believe that you just don't Feel the same Oh, Jane Jane, you're playin' a game You never can win, girl You're stayin' away so I'll ask you Where you've been, baby? Like a cat and a mouse (Cat and a mouse) From door to door and house to house Don't you pretend you don't know What I'm talkin' about Were all those nights we spent together, hey hey Only because you didn't know better I gotta know Oh Jane, you're playin' a game You're playin' a game Playin' a game Oh Jane, you're playin' a game Of hide and go seek Jane, you're playin' for fun But I play for keeps, yes I do That's a game on me, yeah (Jane, Jane, Jane) It's so plain to see (Jane, Jane, Jane) Jane, Jane, Jane, Jane, Jane, yeah (Jane, Jane, Jane) Why you fooling with me, me, me (Jane, Jane, Jane) (Jane, Jane, Jane) (Jane, Jane, Jane) (Jane, Jane, Jane) Songwriters: Paul L.

I wonder how you're feeling There's ringing in my ears And no one to relate to except the sea Who can I believe in? I'm kneeling on the floor There has to be a force Who do I phone? The stars are out and shining But all I really want to know Oh won't you show me the way I want you show me the way Well, I can see no reason, You living on your nerves When someone drops a cup and I submerge I'm swimming in a circle, I feel I'm going down There has to be a fool To play my part Someone thought of healing, But all I really want to know Oh won't you show me the way I want you show me the way I want you day after day I wonder if I'm dreaming I feel so unashamed I can't believe this is happening to me I watch you when you're sleeping And then I want to take your love Oh won't you show me the way Oh won't you show me the way I want you day after day I want you day after day Oh won't you show me the way I want you day after day Songwriters: Peter Kenneth Frampton Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Universal Music Publishing Group

A.D. 1928 Tonight's the night we'll make history As sure as dogs can fly And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time And stay with you here to night So take your seats and don't be late We need your spirits high To turn on these theatre lights And brighten the darkest skies Here at the paradise Rockin' the Paradise Whatcha doin' tonight (Whatcha doin', whatcha doin') Well have you heard that the world's gone crazy Young Americans listen when I say There's people puttin' us down I know they're sayin' that we've gone lazy To tell you the truth we've all seen better days Don't need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun Quick trick plans, take the money and run We need long term, slow burn, getting it done And some straight talking, hard working son of a gun Whatcha doin' tonight (Whatcha doin', whatcha doin') I got faith in our generation Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes I ain't lookin' to fight, but I know with determination We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules Come on and take pride, be wise, spottin' the fools Big shots, crackpots bending the rules A fair shot here for me and for you Knowing that we can't lose And we'll be Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Tonight, Tonight Come on and take pride, be wise, spottin' the fools Big shots, crackpots bending the rules A fair shot here for me and for you Knowing that we can't lose And we'll be Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Rockin' in Paradise Rockin' the Paradise tonight Songwriters: Tommy Shaw, James Young & Dennis DeYoung Lyrics © Stygian Songs, Wixen Music Publishing Obo Stygian Songs

Bus stop, wet day She's there, I say Please share my umbrella Bus stops, bus goes She stays, love grows Under my umbrella All that summer we enjoyed it Wind and rain and shine That umbrella we employed it By August she was mine Every morning I would see her Waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shop And she would show me what she'd bought Other people stared As if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers Are going to be the same That's the way the whole thing started Silly but it's true Thinking of our sweet romance Beginning in a queue Came the sun The ice was melting No more sheltering now Nice to think that that umbrella Led me to avow Every morning I would see her Waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shop And she would show me what she'd bought Other people stared As if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers Are going to be the same Bus stop, wet day She's there, I say Please share my umbrella Bus stops, bus goes She stays, love grows Under my umbrella All that summer we enjoyed it Wind and rain and shine That umbrella we employed it By August she was mine Songwriters: Graham Gouldman Lyrics © Music Sales Corporation, Schubert Music Publishing Inc.

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea You became the light on the dark side of me Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill But did you know that when it snows My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen? Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah Now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the grey There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain Baby, to me, you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby? But did you know that when it snows My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen? Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah Now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the grey I've been kissed by a rose on the grey I've been kissed by a rose on the grey And if I should fall, will it all go away? I've been kissed by a rose on the grey There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain To me, you're like a growing, addiction that I can't deny Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby? But did you know that when it snows My eyes become large, and the light that you shine can be seen? Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah Now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the grey Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey Ooh, the more I get of you stranger it feels, yeah And now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the grey Now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the grey Songwriters: Henry Olusegun Adeola Samuel Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, BMG Rights Management

Oh, what a night Late December back in '63 What a very special time for me As I remember, what a night Oh, what a night, you know I didn't even know her name But I was never gonna be the same What a lady, what a night Oh, I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room Oh my, as I recall it ended much too soon Oh what a night, hypnotizin' mesmerizing me She was ev'rything I dreamed she'd be Sweet surrender, what a night I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder Spinnin' my head around n' takin' my body under Oh, what a night Oh, I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room Oh my, as I recall it ended much too soon Oh, what a night Why'd it take so long to see the light Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right What a lady, what a night I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder Spinnin' my head around n' takin' my body under Oh what a night Oh what a night Oh what a night Oh what a night Songwriters: Bob Gaudio/Judy Parker Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

Love is but a song to sing Fear's the way we die You can make the mountains ring Or make the angels cry Though the bird is on the wing And you may not know why Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Some may come and some may go We shall surely pass When the one that left us here Returns for us at last We are but a moment's sunlight Fading in the grass Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now If you hear the song I sing You will understand (listen!) You hold the key to love and fear All in your trembling hand Just one key unlocks them both It's there at your command Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now I said, come on people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another Right now Right now Right now Songwriters: Chester Powers/Chester William Jr. Powers Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Universal Music Publishing Group

I'm like a strange cat running in the heat of the night. I've got a fire in my eyes, got a date with delight. Some kind-a moaning in the heart of the storm. I'm gonna love you so hard, you'll want your lovin' done. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. With my one hand loose I aim to satisfy. You like my loving machine, I like your bloodshot eyes. Real gone girl jumping back with the beat. I'll be your tall cool one with those crazy feet. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. I'm so tall and you're so cute. Let's play wild like wildcats do. You're gonna rock your tall cool one, I'm gonna say that, I'm gonna say that, I'm gonna say that, ah You stroll, you jump, you're hot, and you tease, 'cause I'm your tall cool one, and I'm built to please. You stroll, you jump, you're hot, and you tease, 'cause I'm your tall cool one, and I'm built to please. M-m-move over mister, step on back in the crowd, 'Cause she's a whole lotta sister 'bout to drive me wild. Lotta places I've seen, lotta names lotta words, 'Cause no one compares to my real gone girl. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. I'm so tall and you're so cute. Let's play wild like wildcats do. You're gonna rock your tall cool one, I'm gonna say that, I'm gonna say that, I'm gonna say that, ah You stroll, you jump, you're hot, and you tease, 'cause I'm your tall cool one, and I'm built to please. You stroll, you jump, you're hot, and you tease, 'cause I'm your tall cool one, and I'm built to please. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you. Lighten up baby, I'm in love with you.

Been working so hard I'm punching my card Eight hours for what? Oh, tell me what I got I've got this feeling That time's just holding me down I'll hit the ceiling Or else I'll tear up this town Now I gotta cut loose Footloose, kick off the Sunday shoes Please, Louise, pull me off of my knees Jack, get back, come on before we crack Lose your blues, everybody cut footloose You're playing so cool, obeying every rule Deep way down in your heart You're burning, yearning for the some-somebody to tell you That life ain't passing you by I'm trying to tell you It will if you don't even try You'll get by if you'd only cut loose Footloose, kick off the Sunday shoes Ooh-whee, Marie, shake it, shake it for me Whoah, Milo come on, come on let's go Lose your blues, everybody cut footloose You got to turn me around And put your feet on the ground Gotta take the hold of all I'm turning loose, footloose, kick off the Sunday shoes Please, Louise, pull me off of my knees Jack, get back, come on before we crack Lose your blues, everybody cut footloose Footloose, kick off the Sunday shoes Please, Louise, pull me off of my knees Jack, get back, come on before we crack Lose your blues, everybody cut, everybody cut Everybody cut, everybody cut Everybody cut, everybody cut Everybody, everybody cut footloose Songwriters: Dean Pitchford/Kenny Loggins Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
