The Bottom 04:14
lyrics
buy track
I don’t give a damn if I can’t get a lick. I’ll do it your way, but let’s make it quick. No more please, I’m only a man. Over and over, it’s all I can stand. Here I go Down below. Here I go To the bottom. I look in your eyes, and you’re startin’ to stare. You give me a kiss, but I just don’t care. Dreaming while awake, and waking while I dream. Everything’s a blur, I just wanna scream. Here I go Down below. Here I go To the bottom. I know what I need to get some satisfaction. Slippin’ and slidin’ I can’t get me no traction. I’m fallin’ like a domino in a chain reaction. I’ve got this hunger with nothin’ to eat. (Oh yeah, just wanna eat.) Give me a taste, give me somethin’ sweet. (Oh please, give me somethin’ sweet.) I’m lost in a world I can’t control. I can’t stay here, but there’s somewhere to go. (Down below, there’s somewhere to go.) Here I go Down below. Here I go To the bottom. Here I go Down below. Here I go To the bottom. Here I go Down below. Here I go To… to the bottom.

Will the Lights Go On Again? 03:19
lyrics

Will we sing and dance? Have another chance? Take a Sunday drive? Now, maybe we’ll survive Will the lights go on again? Will we still be here In another year? Will the airplanes fly? Will the oceans get too high? Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again? Will the darkness never end? Please, don’t tell me it’s the end No! No! No! No! Who’ll be in control? Just the brave and bold. It’s the world’s darkest hour, And we are the power. Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again? Will the lights go on again?

If It Wasn't for the Night 03:35
lyrics

Yeah, I’m movin’ on Singin’ a new song Finally feelin’ strong Lookin’ up ahead Clearin’ out my head Put the past to bed If it wasn’t for the night I would be all right And I’d finally make it through If it wasn’t for the night I could see the light And I’d be over you If it wasn’t for the night Start a brand new day Now, I’m on my way Ready now to play Crashin’ through the door Slidin’ ‘cross the floor Better than before If it wasn’t for the night I would be all right And I’d finally make it through If it wasn’t for the night I could see the light And I’d be over you If it wasn’t for the night Another day it fades away As the darkness kills the light As I lay awake, I see your face And I can’t escape the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night I would be all right And I’d finally make it through If it wasn’t for the night I could see the light And I’d be over you If it wasn’t for the night I would be all right And I’d finally make it through If it wasn’t for the night I could see the light And I’d be over you If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night If it wasn’t for the night

I’ve seen ‘em come and go I’ve seen it all and more Up around the bend Now, I’m back again Yeah, I’m back in town And I’m layin’ it down I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around Ain’t no kid, I ain’t no fool Ain’t no punk tryin’ to prove I’m cool There are lessons I have learned Respect is something earned I’ve got the sonic sound And I’m playin’ it loud I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around I fought my way out of hell Stories I can tell I’ve been loved I’ve been despised Yeah! I tell no lies Yeah, I’m back in town And I’m layin’ it down I’m still around I’m still around I’ve got the sonic sound And I’m playin’ it loud I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around I’m still around

The Hollywood Stars Los Angeles, California

Flashback to 1973. Two years before Kim Fowley would unveil his teenage Runaways to an unsuspecting world, the rock ‘n’ roll Svengali of the Sunset Strip was assembling the Hollywood Stars. Fowley conceptualized the group as a West Coast answer to the New York Dolls — having the energy and excitement of mid-60s pop and rock, with the crunchy guitars and attitude of hard rock. ... more
