Crimes Of Passion

TREAT ME RIGHT Written by: Pat Benatar & D. Lubahn
: You want me to leave, you want me to stay; You ask me to come back, you turn and walk away; You wanna be lovers, and you wanna be friends; I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end; One of these days you're gonna reach out and find; The one that you count on has left you behind; Don't want to be no martyr, with no one, no say; Oh my, my baby, before it's too late; Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right; Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light; Oh, Treat Me Right; Do you think I'm a fool, well you better think twice; I've had enough baby, it's time you realized; That you can't have it both ways, it's no way to live; You've done all the takin', it's your turn to give; One of these days you're gonna reach out and find; The one that you count on has left you behind; Don't want to be no martyr, with no one, no say; Oh my, my baby, before it's too late; Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right; Open your eye's, maybe you'll see the light; Ooh, Ooh, Treat Me Right; You want me to leave, you want me to stay; You ask me to come back, you're turnin' love away; You wanna be lovers, and you wanna be friends; I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end; Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right; Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light; Ooh, Ooh, Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right; Treat Me Right

NEVER WANNA LEAVE YOU Written by: Pat Benatar & Neil Geraldo

Never could say what I want to say

Never could do what I want to do

Never could believe you, if it's true

Never could, never would, you make it so hard

I Never Wanna Leave You

I'm always right, you're never wrong

We change the tune but not the song

Over and over

Till it's done, it's never done, never done

You make it so hard

Never Wanna Leave You

I Never Wanna Leave You

Move in together, comin' apart

You're the one I need, I'm what you want

Never could refuse you from the start

Never could, never would, never could

You make it so hard

Never could say what I want to say

Never could do what I want to do

Never could believe you, if it's true

Never could, never would, you make it so hard

I Never Wanna Leave You

Never Wanna Leave You

I Never Wanna

HELL IS FOR CHILDREN Written by: Pat Benatar, Neil Geraldo, & R. Capps

They cry in the dark, so you can't see their tears

They hide in the light, so you can't see their fears

Forgive and forget, all the while

Love and pain become one and the same

In the eyes of a wounded child

Because Hell

Hell Is For Children

And you know that their little lives can become such a mess

Hell

Hell Is For Children

And you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh

It's all so confusing, this brutal abusing

They blacken your eyes, and then 'pologize

You're daddy's good girl, and don't tell mommy a thing

Be a good little boy, and you'll get a new toy

Tell grandma you fell off the swing

Because Hell

Hell Is For Children

And you know that their little lives can become such a mess

Hell

Hell Is For Children

And you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh

No, Hell Is For Children

Hell

Hell is for Hell

Hell Is For Children

Hell

Hell is for Hell

Hell Is For Children

LITTLE PARADISE Written by: Neil Geraldo

Can you see the view? Can you feel the heat?

I'm saving no time for you, no time for me

You're up on the news, I'm wild in the streets

I'm under the lights, tonight I won't have to hide the need

But you got love in its place

In its own time and space

You got love in its place in your

Little Paradise

You got fashion secure in your own little world

Diamonds are forever for a Hollywood girl

No need to cover, no reason to lie

Life without your Maserati is grounds for suicide

But you got love in its place

In its own time and space

You got love in its place in your

Little Paradise

I'M GONNA FOLLOW YOU Written by: Billy Steinberg & Ralph McCarthy

I'm Gonna Follow You, `till I wear you down

I'm Gonna Follow You, `cause this here's my town

You don't know these streets the way that I do (I do, I do)

You can't turn it on and off the way that I do (I do, I do)

I'm Gonna Follow You, `till I know your timing

You'll turn some corner soon, and find you can't get by me

You don't know these streets the way that I do (I do, I do)

You can't turn it on and off the way that I do (I do, I do)

You see yourself as some kind of lily of the valley

You come around here in your ballet slippers padding on my alley

And you know that you can't dance

Cause you know you never had the chance

I'm gonna dance for you!

I'm Gonna Follow You, `till I wear you down

I'm Gonna Follow You, `cause this here's my town

You don't know these streets the way that I do (I do, I do)

You can't turn it on and off the way that I do (I do, I do)

You see yourself as some kind of lily of the valley

You come around here in your ballet slippers padding on my alley

And you know that you can't dance

Cause you know you never had the chance

I'm gonna dance for you!

WUTHERING HEIGHTS Written by: Kate Bush

Out on the wiley, windy moors, we'd roll and fall in green

You had a temper like my jealousy, too hot, too gready

How could you leave me, when I needed to possess you

I hated you, I loved you too

Bad dreams in the night

You told me I was going to lose the fight

Leave behind my

Wuthering, Wuthering, Wuthering Heights

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Ooh, it gets dark, it gets lonely

On the other side from you

I pine a lot, I find a lot falls, through without you

I'm coming back love, cruel Heathcliff

My one dream, my only master

Too long I roam in the night

I'm coming back to his side to put it right

I'm coming home to

Wuthering, Wuthering, Wuthering Heights

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Ooh, let me have it, let me grab your soul away

You know it's me, Kathy

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

It's so cold, let me in your window

Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Kathy, I've come home now

So cold

PRISIONER OF LOVE Written by: Scott Sheets

Cold hard labor, it's a labor of love

Convicted of crimes, the crimes of passion

Caught in a chain gang, the chain of fools

Solitary confinement, confined by the rules

I'm just a Prisioner

An inmate of love

Oh I'm a Prisioner

Captured by love

With no escape

No where to go

No place to hide

Hey, I'm a Prisioner!

I'm just a Prisioner

Mending the wounds, the wounds of lament

The knife cut deep, deep into my heart

The romance is over, my passions remain

Still bound to love by this ball and chain

I'm just a Prisioner

An inmate of love

Oh I'm a Prisioner

Captured by love

With no escape

No where to go

No place to hide

Hey, I'm a Prisioner!

I'm just a Prisioner

Find an escape, a key to the door

I gotta get out, can't take anymore

Make a clean break, to bury the past

I'll shed these chains and be free at last

I'm just a Prisioner

A Prisioner Of Love

I'm just a Prisioner

A Prisioner Of Love

Hey, I'm a Prisioner

I'm just a Prisioner

OUT-A-TOUCH Written by: Pat Benatar/ Neil Geraldo / Myron Grombacher

I've seen your picture in the paper

On the front page of magazines

I've pulled the trigger right at you

On billboards and movie screens

When I talk, it's to myself

Cause I know your kind, you're like everyone else

Maybe it'll work itself out in time, before I lose my mind

You, You're Out-A-Touch

All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much

Your Out-A-Touch

I keep your letters by the mirror

You're the subject of every dream

You're not so invincible, and I'm not what I might seem

When I look, it's in your eyes

And I know your look, you can hypnotize

How long does it have to last like this, a kodachrome kiss

You, You're Out-A-Touch

All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much

You, You're Out-A-Touch

You're in my sight all through the night

And I see too much

Your Out-A-Touch

Can't you see I'm obsessed

I'd do anything, I'm possessed

I'm in a constant rage with your luminary stage

I need you, I need you

I've seen your picture in the paper

On the front page of magazines

I've pulled the trigger right at you

On billboards and movie screens

When I look, it's in your eyes

And I know your look, you can hypnotize

How long does it have to last like this, a kodachrome kiss

You, You're Out-A-Touch

All alone in a danger zone, and I think too much

Your Out-A-Touch

I need you...
