next song Deep Purple: Live At The Olympia '96 (2nd disc) Deep Purple: Abandon Any Fule Kno That
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
If you're in the right city at the right time
What's the last thing going through your mind
Not talking 'bout your, ask no questions, you know it's a lie
You're just a victim of a corporate crime
All the signs of a shark attack
You've got rivers of blood on the streets, don't look back
Nothing personal, just another snack
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that

Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
Just trying to keep her happy
There's no laughing in heaven, not the one, not the seven
And you'll never get to heaven in her row boat
Pea brain pisser, dog breath kisser
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that

Oooh...
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place

Salad days go a-tickling by
Have a high time, burn money in the meantime
They bleed you dry
Those suckers are smaller than life
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
I'm better off sticking to my guns
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that

Oooh...
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place

Danny went down to the river one day
Didn't come back, that's the last, they say
We ever saw of him, that's no lie
Spitting in your eye, have no fear
You don't want the truth
Stick your finger in your ear
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
...
next song previous song Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Abandon Almost Human
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Well, I know you're the only one that understands
Afore ye go, before you leave
You always shake my hand
Even when I'm crazy
On fire and naked
Just as Nature intended
No style and easily blended

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming

I believe I could walk before I learned to crawl
And when I look up, the Devil's looking back
From the mirror on the wall
You can open the door
I got my feet stuck to the floor
I may have lost my way
But I didn't get where I am today

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming

You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming

You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Don't Make Me Happy
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
You stare into the room, nothing there but space
No sign of any message has gone without a trace
I don't want your pity, if that's what you think
I'll take my comfort from this hole (that) I'm sinking in

Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
No

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
Don't make me happy

It's nice here in this room, you would like it, yes you would
It's got a bed, two chairs and a table, and I'd leave here if I could
There's a man standing up oh who's down on his knees
And outside the cold wind sends a shiver through the trees

On the line, left behind, under pressure
It's so bad, let me be, I don't want to get better
No

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
Don't make me happy
Oh oh

I don't care what you think but think about this
Could have been someone else, beware of what you wish
Now the door is closed, locked and sealed
And now you think you know how rejection feels
Ooh wooh

Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
No

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
Don't make me happy
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Seventh Heaven
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
I've been to places where the sun goes down each night
And never rises
I've been to places in a dark room where we played
With our disguises

Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven

It was a dream, I heard a voice, I put it down
To wishful thinking
It was a dream, a silent scream out of the blue
A new beginning

Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven

And then I fell upon a stroke of luck that led
To my good fortune
And then I fell upon my knees and gently kissed
The ground you walk on

Aaaah oh yeah
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
next song previous song Deep Purple: Live At The Royal Albert Hall Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Abandon Watching The Sky
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
I sit here alone
I sit here alone
I look at the walls
Look at the walls
Look at the walls
I look at the walls

You shouldn't be out on your own
Oh no, not with a condition like that
Oh no, sir, constant care
A condition like that, a condition so rare
A penny for the guy, a penny for your thoughts
One a penny, two a penny, penny in your pocket
Ding dong bell, who can tell
Wild Man Fisher got nothing on me

I sit by the water
I sit by the water
Watch it go by
I'm watching the sky
Clouds going by
I'm watching the sky

I left my luggage at the station
Didn't know how to say goodbye
I walked away from all the fury and the madness
And the fury and the madness
And the fury and the madness
Woaah

I smile to myself
I smile to myself

You're on the blind side, I'm on the other side
Now I'm on the outside looking for another side
Upside down side, I'm still lucid
Maybe crazy but I'm not stupid
Try to get out, the parking lot's full
No matter, no matter
What's a man going to do?
One two buckle my shoe
Zip my lip
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Fingers To The Bone
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Everything went wrong, I'm sorry boys, I have to let you go
Ah we've had some hard times and the long rain, it didn't show
Hired hands, I've seen them come and go but you don't come much better
Ah today's Blue Monday, I just got a bad news letter

This day has come, the darkest cloud on our horizon
My hands are tied down to that promise note I signed upon
Always been this way, it's the poor man who gets hurt
And all you ever work for is to leave your footprints in the dirt

You work your fingers to the bone
You work your fingers to the bone
You work your fingers to the bone

The deed is done, the fruit will fall to someone else's hand
That's how the land lies, now we all know where we stand
You'll have to walk away, don't let them see you running
Ah today's Blue Monday and I should've seen it coming

You work your fingers to the bone
You work your fingers to the bone
Ah your fingers to the bone

If sweat and tears were all it took to make this valley green
Ah we'd be alright but now it's gone, they've taken everything
They say it's just an act of God and that's the way the ill wind blows
You've got thirty days to pack your bags, say goodbye, hit the road

You work your fingers to the bone
You work your fingers to the bone
You work your fingers to the bone

You work your fingers to the bone
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Jack Ruby
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Ah there's no method in my madness, no craft, no guile
No expertise, no self assuring smile
No wizardry or witchcraft, no crass deceit
No dark conspiracies, I stand on my own two feet
I'm coming through just like Jack Ruby-yeah-hey

And I'm ragged around the edges but I got control
There's no way around it and I got control
I reach out for my program, still got control
Straight down to business, who needs control
I've got panache just like Jack Ruby

I don't beg forgiveness, I don't beg at all
And I beg to differ 'cos I got the ball
There was no invitation, you're not the type
And what's gone, it ain't worth having, kiss it all goodbye
Right on the money just like Jack Ruby-yeah-hey
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon She Was
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
She was, she was
She was, she was
Oh she was
She was all that she said she was
She was all that she said she was

I couldn't want for more but all I want is more
I just want her more and more and more and more and more
But she's untouchable
And I lay my head down, I lay my head down
And then she's lovable

Who were you with last night?
I said, Who were you with last night?
Were you thinking of me?
And where you thinking of me?
Unforgivable sin, unforgivable sin, unforgivable
You're untouchable

And I lay my head down
I lay my head down

She coming my way
Oh she coming my way
I don't know what to say
She coming my way
She fading away
She fading away

Yeah I lay my head down
I lay my head down

She coming my way
Oh she coming my way
I don't know what to say
She coming my way
Now she's fading away
She fading away

She was, she was
She was, she was
She's fading away
She's fading away
She's fading away
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Whatsername
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Unforgettable face, I can't think of her name
It's on the edge of my tongue, gathering dust in the back of my brain
Something 'bout the way she ignores me that's vaguely familiar
Makes you wonder what it was you ever did to thrill her

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

I never felt the need to soothe her savage breast
She never felt obliged to tell me of her change of address
Caught me on a downward swing but I fell through her arms
And how could I be so careless, I never meant to go so far

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

Oh she's back in town
Oh she's back in town
I'm not leaving
I'm running away

She took it all away, now she's back for the rest
Took it all too easy, wouldn't settle for less
She doesn't know what she wants but she knows how to get it
Ah I can't remember the time, she never let me forget it

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

Oh Whatsername's back in town
Oh she's back in town
I'm not leaving
I'm running away

Oh she's back in town
Oh she's back in town
I'm not leaving
I'm running away
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon '69
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Waoh Flying through the night in a beat up wagon
A mike stand up my jacksy
And give me a beer and I'll stand on a chair
And slip into something sexy
Waoh The Black Cat Woolwich, The Tiger's Head, The Cafe des Artistes
The Revolution and the Bag O' Nails, I'll see you down the Speak'

Well your Ma said you slept real good in your food last night
But you couldn't hold it down
But you broke up a real good fight
Ligging at the Old Marquee, spinning Jack a line
Even he knew better than me in sixty nine

Sixty nine, sixty nine
Sixty nine, sixty nine

On the road to Paradiso
Back of your head, got to pay some dues
Rugged looked down
As the Thames swallowed his life at the Boathouse, Kew
Hot girls, no AC, cheap TV, sleep on the floor
Hallelujah, what's a roadie, hush my baby sleep no more

Your Ma said you slept real good in your food last night
You couldn't hold it down
But you broke up a real good fight
Ligging at the Old Marquee, spinning Jack a line
Even he knew better than me in sixty nine
next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Evil Louie
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Some say the state of Texas
Could accommodate the entire human population
Five point six billion versions of the truth under one roof
(Some) revelation
Take a bit of this, give a bit of that
Put it in a blender, pull it out a hat
And there's no going back, it's a lie, it's a fact
Has the cat got your tongue?
Been too long in the sun?
There's dust on your tracks
There's no going back

Come to think of it's a load of monkeys
Every time you listen to your sun kissed lover's words
Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness
It's a game of madness in a perfect world

Some would say French cuisine's more appealing
Than a cold drink, burgers and fries
Some have said that a pillar of society
An upright citizen's incapable of lust and crime
Take a bit of this, give a bit of that
Put it in a blender, pull it out a hat
But he don't stand a change with his pants around his ankles
Has the cat got your tongue?
Too long in the sun?
There's dust on your tracks
There's no going back

Come to think of it's a load of monkeys
Every time you listen to your sun kissed lover's words
Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness
It's a game of madness in a perfect world

Come to think of it's a load of monkeys
Every time you listen to your sun kissed lover's words
Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness
It's a game of madness, game of madness

Come to think of it's a load of monkeys
Every time you listen to your sun kissed lover's words
Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness
It's a game of madness in a perfect world
Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 (disc 1) previous song Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Abandon Deep Purple: Deep Purple In Rock Bludsucker
(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know

Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay awhile I really love you so
How's about another sip of all the wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show

You really really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
