(Lord/lyrics by Gillan)
How can I see the light has gone out
How can I hear when you speak so silently
More than enough is never too much
Hold out a hand - I'm so out of touch

You want to feel as your heart would have you do
Looks on my head cannot get the message through
So that my hand can cut through
Peace in my heart can suffer too

What shall I do when they stand smiling at me
Look at them all and be so cool, oh so cool

How shall I know when to start singing my song
What shall I do when they all go by

What shall I do...

next song previous song Deep Purple: Live At The Royal Albert Hall Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Live At The Olympia '96 Deep Purple: Purpendicular Ted The Mechanic
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
He was playing pool and drinking beer
Nothing more'n the occasional tear
But this man's life goes on
He gets greased all over from time to time
At the strip joint, where we met
He said: "Hi! My name is Ted
See that one over there, that ball of thunder?
Every time she goes Vavoom, I wiggle in my chair
Eh oh can I buy you a beer?"
Erh what a guy!

"Well I've had a few myself" he said
"But I never quit when I'm ahead
Too many rules and regulations, stupid laws designed by fools behind closed doors
And another thing I won't discuss is religion, it always causes a fight"
Vavoom
"There she goes again"
Huh ah how does she do that, Ted?

Yeah! Aaaah haah!

And he told me of those injustices that he had suffered in his life
His wife and kids and boss and dogs and neighbours raising cain and causing strife
They were forever whining, bleating, howling, yapping, screeching, moaning, crying
Vavoom
He fed them well
Aaaah he keep them warm
Ted - Ted the Mechanic

Thing about Ted, didn't really care
Nothing much got in his hair
The beauty of it was that he was right
He was big as a truck, fast as a door (what's that?)
He was always right
The banjo player took a hike
And what's that song I used to like
Vavoom
Big as a truck
Uh he was fast as a door
Ted - What a guy!
Mmm top man, our Ted
Top man, our Ted
Top man, our Ted
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: Live At The Royal Albert Hall Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Live At The Olympia '96 Deep Purple: Purpendicular Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
While you were out... the message says
You left a number an' I tried to call
But they wrote it down in a perfect Spanish scrawl
Perfect Spanish scrawl

Yet again, I'm missing you
King size bed in a hotel someplace
I hear your name, I see your face
I see your face

Yeah...
Back street dolls and the side door Johnnies
Wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high, I know
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
Best laid plans come apart at the seams
Shatter all my dreams

Sometimes I feel like screaming, close my eyes
It's times like this my head goes down
The only thing I know is the name of this town
Name of this town

Yet again, I'm missing you
Won't be long, I'm coming home
'Til that distant time, I'll be moving on
I'll be moving on

Back street dolls and the side door Johnnies
And the wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high, I know
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
Best laid plans come apart at the seams
Shatter my dreams

It's all in the mind
Ouh it's all in the mind
It's all in the mind
It's all in the mind
Ouh

Back street dolls and the side door Johnnies
   It's all in the mind
Wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley going bang to the wall
   Aaah...
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high, I know
   All in the mind
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
Best laid plans come apart at the seams
   Aaah...
Shatter my dreams

(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky & Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
