I know what you want, I know what you need
Something unworldly from another breed
Created just for your lust, with exquisite control
A thing you can trust to satisfy your soul
It takes more than a mask to make more than a thrill
To complete that task it takes a special skill
A little bit of this and just a sprinkle of that
With a dagger and a cane and a silk top hat

Ohhhh...
I know you're looking for a real good time
Ohhh...
So let me introduce you to a friend of mine

I'm Alice...
I'm the master of madness, the sultan of surprise
I'm Alice...
So don't be afriad, just look into my eyes
Oh yeah...

They hang me from the gallows and they chop off my head
But like lazerus rising I come back from the dead
The shameless pretenders have come and they've gone
But I stand here before you and the legend lives on

Ohhh...
It's a myth wraped in glory that they don't understand
Ohhh...
The fabulous story of who I really am

I'm Alice
The master of madness, the father of fright
I'm Alice
I'm yours forever but you're mine tonight
Oh yeah

(For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well
For a slice of heaven in this living hell
Come and be with the me that you know so well)

I accept your addoration and I revel in your fear
But its your imagination that has brought you here
So.. here's the revelation, and let me make it clear,
That I am your creation and now... I disappear

I'm Alice
The master of madness, the sultan of surprise
I'm Alice
So don't be afraid, just look into my eyes
I'm Alice
The master of madness, the father of fright
I'm Alice
I'm yours forever but you're mine tonight
Oh yeah

Forgot my life, forgot my face
I’m not a member of the human race
My time is here, my time is now
I play the creature, ‘cause I know how

My lips are red, my eyes are black
And I’m as scary as a heart attack
I hear the screams, I love the heat
I love the tribal, demon beat

They hit the lights, I hit the stage
(you’re so cool…you’re all the rage)
I’ve come to let you out of your cage

Welcome to the show
Welcome to the show
Are you ready to ride to the other side
You know you wanna go

Welcome the night
You’re gonna feel the fright
Welcome to the show

I like your look, I like your style
Your painted faces make me smile
You know the act, you know the dream
You know exactly when to scream

We light it up, then you burn it down
(you’re so cool…you wear the crown)
Because I rule this holy ground

Welcome to the show
Welcome to the show
Are you ready to ride to the other side
You know you wanna go

Welcome to the game
You’ll never be the same
Welcome to the show

All right band
Put your hands in
Top hat!
Cane!
House lights!
Intro tape!
It’s time!

Welcome to the show
Welcome to the show
Are you ready to ride to the other side
You know you wanna go

Welcome the game
You’ll never be the same
Welcome to the show

We played in Paris, France where we drank champagne
Somehow I lost my pants and then I woke up on a train
I was invited to a jail down in old Hong Kong
I jumped my bail, hit the trail, played the gig, and I was gone

You know it’s all about the show
And we kill it wherever we go

All over the world
All over the world
That’s why they like it, love it
Yeah, all over the world

We hit the stage with rage around 9 o’clock
We’re always louder than hell and we’re harder than rock

Rolled into England and China, Ukraine and Brazil
Slayed ‘em in Sydney and Fargo, Zanzibar and Seville

They know it’s all about the show
All the Jenny’s and all of the Joe’s
From Katmandu to Kokomo
‘cause we kill it wherever we go

All over the world
All over the world
That’s why they like it, love it
Yeah, all over the world

Another day, another night
Another month, another year
You know that rock will never die
As long as we don’t disappear

Never be our final show
Never be our final shot
We give it everything we know
We give it everything we got

All over the world
All over the world
That’s why they like it, love it
Yeah, all over the world

All over the world
All over the world
That’s why you like it, love it
Like it, love it
Like it, love it
Yeah, all over the world

If I wasn’t in a band, I’d probably be a criminal
I estimate my options would be absolutely minimal

I’d be drinkin’ all day, but dying of thirst
Smokin’ and chokin’ and worse

The dead don’t dance
The dead don’t dance
They just stumble around like zombies in a trance
‘cause the dead… don’t… dance

If I wasn’t in a band, they would need to do away with me
They’d put me in the ground with profound animosity

I’d sing to the worms, but they’d turn their back
My beats would be under attack

‘cause the dead don’t dance
The dead don’t dance
They just stumble around like zombies in a trance
‘cause the dead… don’t…

I’d try to organize a graveyard hop, oh yeah
I’d misprioritize and it’d be a flop, oh no
So, I would be demortalized, but I wouldn’t stop
And I’d prob’ly be deportalized to some other plot, oh...

‘cause the dead don’t dance
The dead don’t dance
They stumble around like zombies in a trance
‘cause the dead… don’t… dance

The dead dont dance
They just stumble arround like zombies in a trance
‘cause the dead… don’t… dance

Well I’m a big bad wolf and I drive alone
I’m a seventh son and I'm bad to the bone
I feel a little bit dead, but tonight I’m alive
Gotta load in my nose, I'm gonna drive, drive, drive

Got no wife, no snotty kids, got no alimony
I live for the road ‘cause I gotta be free

They call me White Line Frankenstein
White Line Frankenstein

On the road to the show I’m a gigolo
And all the girls know they can get a ride, Oh yeah...
Cause I’m a hell of a man in a one night stand
They’re eatin’ out of my hand, so satisfied

The highway’s my heart
And this truck is my home
I’m a road rat, baby, I’m a rock ‘n’ rollin’ stone

They call me White Line Frankenstein
White Line Frankenstein
(White Line Frankenstein) That's me.

Got oil in my veins, and a gutful of gas
Get out of my way ‘cause I’m movin’ fast
I’m rollin’ thunder, I’m at lightin’ speed
Got this metal monster that I gotta feed

The highway’s my heart
And this truck is my home
I’m a road rat, baby, I’m a rock ‘n’ rollin’ stone

They call me White Line Frankenstein
They call me White Line Frankenstein
They call me White Line Frankenstein
Cause I’m a White line Frankenstein
Get out of my way!
White Line Frankenstein

We made a dinner stop
At a burger shop
The waitress was a goddess
From the bottom to the top

Tell me what you want
I mean you boys have gotta eat
I couldn’t read the menu
I was starin’ at her feet

I couldn’t help thinkin’
What a woman…
What a pair

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots... oh yeah

“My name is Fancy”
She said with a drawl
“I left my number on the check
Just in case you wanna call”

“You got room on that bus?”
She whispered with a smile
“just the two of us
I’ll make it worth your while”

But I was still thinkin’
What a woman
What a pair

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots... oh yeah

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots... oh yeah

“you must be in a band?”
I’ll bet you see the world
I wouldn’t understand
I mean I’m just a country girl

“We’re good on coffee
But the pie is gettin’ low
And I’m fresh out of innocence
Just thought you’d like to know”

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got big boots... oh yeah

She got big boots
Baby got boots
She got great big boots... oh yeah... oh yeah

Well, you know what they say about big boots

So, if you wanna be like me
Here’s the rules 1, 2, 3
You gotta find a killer band,
Then bust your ass, you understand?

You gotta rock, you gotta roll
You gotta shock, and lose control

Four, five, six and then you lose your mind
Collect your chicks and now you’re doin’ fine
Be sure you find a girl from East LA
'Cause she will never ever let you pay

So you can rock, so you can roll
So you can shock, and lose control (c’mon boys!)

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, gotta follow the rules
The rules of the road

Before you even start to board
That private jet that you can’t afford
You gotta buy a mansion and flashy car
In case you actually do become a star

And then you can rock, then you can roll
Then you can shock, and lose control

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, gotta follow the rules
These are the rules of the road

I’ve been at this game for a long time
and I’m gonna share some wisdom with you
Rule number one - always get the money
Rule number two - remember to always get the money
And rule number three - never forget to remember to always get the money
If it’s in a glass, drink it!
If it is offered to you, take it!
If you can drive it, drive it hard!
And if you follow these simple rules, by the age of 27, well…
You’re gonna die…ha ha ha

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you wanna be hot, if you wanna be cool
You only get one shot, gotta follow the rules
The rules of the road

These are the rules of the road
These are the rules of the road
If you hear my words and heed them well
You’ll be heading down that road to hell
‘cause these are the rules!

I don’t give a damn
Tomorrow I’ll be movin’ on
So why are we pretendin’

‘cause you know who I am
It’s what I told you all along
And you know this endin’

I can’t be your saint or shining knight
Ain’t no way to paint this black heart white

You went to all that trouble
I hate to burst your bubble
But here comes the big goodbye!

You’re looking for a man
Ha! A hero from a fairytale
You’re nothin’ but a dreamer

Cause babe I’m in a band
And I can’t be your holy grail
I’m a liar and a schemer

I know I took your heart last night
But now it’s time to see the light

You went to all that trouble
And I hate to burst your bubble
But here comes the big goodbye!

I can’t be your saint or shining knight
So now it’s time to see the light

You went to all that trouble
And I hate to burst your bubble
And though your heart is breakin’
There ain’t no point in fakin’

So here comes the big goodbye!

We work the band 'cause they make it rock
But we're the guys that make it roll
We move the drums, and amps, and props

We’re road rats
We're a pack
And the road's our home

On the road half my young man's life
I spent a lot of time
Ain't got no bread to show for it
Road rats
All the cash spent on whites and wine

We're the men behind the man
We're the backbone muscle clan
We do a thousand one-night stands

If the star can make it
If the band can shake it
Hell, if those guys can take it
We can
Yeah

We do this job and we live this life
We hear that roar and we love it to death
We moved those drums, and amps, and props

Road rats
On the road
Till our final breath

Road rats
On the road
Till our final breath

Road rats
On the road
Till our final breath

Road rats
On the road
Till our dying breath

We're the men behind the man
We're the backbone muscle clan
We do a thousand one-night stands
If the star can make it
If the band can shake it
Hell, if those guys can take it
We can
Yeah

It’s the time of the morning that I really dread
Dressing in the dark so I don’t wake you from our bed
But as I reach the door you turn and you whisper soft and low

Baby please don’t go, baby please don’t go

I said a thousand times before
“babe you know I really want to stay”
Cause, lying here in your arms, it feels so simple and so safe
You pull me close, and you sing to me
In a voice that melts my soul

Baby please don’t go, baby please don’t go

I had a dream that I’m dying to tell,
Cause it starts so sweet and it ends so well,
And leaving you is as hard as hell, you know. you know
Baby please don’t go

You know I ain’t tryin’ to break your heart.
(baby please don’t go)
We both knew, what we’d have to do
And we knew it right from the start

It’s just not fair to leave you lying there
In your golden afterglow

Saying “please don’t go
Baby please don’t go”
(baby please don’t go)

Saying “please don’t go
(baby please don’t go)
Oh, baby please don’t go”
(baby please don’t go)

I’m ragged and I’m tired
I’m shaking cause I’m wired
Just finished up the final show
It’s really strange to me
I’ve got no place at all to be
Nobody yellin’ “hey man, it’s time to go”

Can’t seem to get from A to B
There’s no reality but my own
White line fever’s running wild
Still a hundred more miles till I’m home

And all that I need is just a little more speed
And I’m home

I’m delirious and crazy
My vision’s blurred and hazy
And so’s my recollection of you
Cause it’s a gypsy occupation
Town to town across the nation
But babe it’s what I gotta do

Just your face is what I’m seein’
‘cause I’m sick and tired of bein’ on my own
White line fever’s running wild
Still a hundred more miles till I’m home
And all that I need is just a little more speed
And I’m home

I’m almost home
(I see the sign ahead…it says a hundred more miles…)

Every day I get in the queue (too much, magic bus)
To get on the bus that takes me to you (too much, magic bus)

I'm so nervous, sit and smile (too much, magic bus)
Your house is only another mile (too much, magic bus)

Thank you, driver, for getting me here (too much, magic bus)
I’m gonna buy you a case of beer (too much, magic bus)

No I don't want to cause no fuss (too much, magic bus)
But can I buy your magic bus? (too much, magic bus)

I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it... (you can't have it!)

I don't care how much I pay (too much, magic bus)
I wanna drive my bus to my baby each day (too much, magic bus)

Every day you'll see the dust (too much, magic bus)
As I drive my baby in my magic bus (too much, magic bus)

Magic bus (magic bus)
Magic bus (magic bus)
Magic bus (magic bus)
Magic bus (magic bus)

I Got it, I got it, I got it I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it

Too much, magic bus, too much, magic bus
Too much, magic bus, too much, magic bus
