Boom Boom
Boom, boom, boom, boom
I'm gonna shoot you right down
Right off-a your feet
Take you home with me
Put you in my house
Boom, boom, boom, boom
Haw, haw, haw, haw

I love to see you strut
Up and down the floor
When you talking to me
That baby talk
I like it like that

Whoa, yeah
Talk that talk, walk that walk

When she walk that walk
And talk that talk
And whisper in my ear
Tell me that you love me
I love that talk
When you talk like that
You knocks me out
Right off-a my feet
Hoo, hoo, hoo
Talk that talk and walk that walk
Oh, yeah

Frisco Blues
I left my heart in, in San Francisco
I left my heart, people, in San Francisco
High on the hill at the Golden Gate
Cross the bay in San Francisco on the hill
The mornin' fog and the cool, cool night
That's where I wanna be
San Francisco, that's where my heart

I've been to New York City, I've been to Chicago
I found no place,like San Francisco,
With the cable car, high, high on the hill
In the mornin' fog, the evening breeze
the cool, cool night is where I wanna be
Oh yeah, oh yeah

Work, work people, tell me about it, now
work out, work out
I got the blues for San Francisco
Yes, yes, yes, yes

My heart is there high on the hill
Right down by the Golden Gate
Cross the bay, where I wanna be
I left my heart right there in San Francisco
With the mornin' fog and the cool, cool night
The cable cars on the hill
That's where I wanna be people
My heart is there, my heart is there
In San Francisco

I Eat Heavy Metal
I eat heavy metal and gargle premium gas
I drink heavy water - nitro-demitasse
I eat heavy metal and chew up limousines
Munch barbed wire in my submarine

I like stainless razor, sharpen appetite
I can swallow laser if I'm eating light
I like anchor sandwich served on aluminum side
I like rusty fences, locomotive pie

Eat heavy metal, I don't truck with tinsel
Drink heavy water, I eat turbo schnitzel
I eat big transformers, I like stoves and cans
Tasty rolled-steel-girders, chomp copper pans

He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal

I'm gonna say it one more time for ya
I eat heavy metal and I gargle premium gas
I drink heavy water - nitro-demitasse
That's all I drink, people

He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal

I chase it with nitro, nitro-demitasse

He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal
He eats heavy metal, he eats heavy metal

Over The Top
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

No idea where my life began
But I'm a fearless Iron Man - Iron Man
I am a fearless Iron Man

I lost my arm, lost my eyes
Broke my feet, bruised my thigh
Head's on a cliff a-hanging from a tree
Neck's on the beach with my elbow and knee

Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

My eye looked around and discovered my hand
Together they uncovered my arm in the sand
Pieces of me come together as one
And we all dance forever in the morning sun

Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

No idea where my maker ran
But I'm a fearless Iron Man - Iron Man
I am a fearless Iron Man
I am a fearless Iron Man
I am a fearless Iron Man

Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Over the top we go

Process
Don't want no woman crazy bout a process head
I don't want no woman crazy bout a process head
See a process head, it's almost simple head

Ain't got no money, you only have hair-do fare
Ain't got no money, you only have hair-do fare
Ain't got a dime, enough to have your hair did right, yeah he did

Had a fool one time, crazy over process head
Had a fool one time, crazy over process head
That no good woman almost drove me insane
Have mercy, she did

On this process-headed fool
Lord, have mercy on, on this process-headed fool
She won't have a process head, she's seen
Walking up and down the street
Have mercy, have mercy with a process fool
