   [Verse 1]
   Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
   Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
   With a step to your left and a flick to the right
   You catch that mirror way out west
   You know you're something special
   And you look like you're the best

   [Chorus]
   Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
   Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
   And when she shines she really shows you all she can
   Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

   [Verse 2]
   I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
   Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
   Like a birthday or a pretty view
   But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

   [Chorus]
   Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
   Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
   And when she shines she really shows you all she can
   Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

   [Tenor Saxophone Solo]

   [Bridge]
   Hey now woo look at that
   Did he nearly run you down?
   At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
   You make me feel alive, alive, alive
   I'll take my chance 'cause luck is on my side or something
   I know what you're thinking
   I tell you something, I know what you're thinking

   [Chorus]
   Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
   Just like that river twists across a dusty land
   And when she shines she really shows you all she can
   Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
   Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand
   And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
   Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
   From mountains in the North down to the Rio Grande

   Hungry Like The Wolf

   [Verse 1]
   Dark in the city, night is a wire
   Steam in the subway, earth is afire
   Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
   Woman you want me, give me a sign
   And catch my breathing even closer behind
   Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

   [Chorus]
   In touch with the ground
   I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
   Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
   And I'm hungry like the wolf
   Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
   I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
   Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
   And I'm hungry like the wolf

   [Verse 2]
   Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
   I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
   Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
   High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight
   You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind
   Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

   [Chorus 2]
   In touch with the ground
   I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
   Scent and a sound
   I'm lost and I'm found
   And I'm hungry like the wolf
   Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
   I howl and I whine I'm after you
   Mouth is alive, all running inside
   And I'm hungry like the wolf

   [Bridge]
   Hungry like the wolf
   Hungry like the wolf
   Hungry like the wolf

   [Chorus 3]
   Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
   I'm on the hunt,I'm after you
   I smell like I sound
   I'm lost and I'm found
   And I'm hungry like the wolf
   Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
   I'm on the hunt I'm after you
   Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
   And I'm hungry like the wolf

4. Night Boat

   Night Boat

   ×

   [Verse 1]
   Standing on the edge of a quay
   Low lights flashing on the water for me
   Fogging my mind darkens my eyes
   Silently streaming for a distant sound
   Ripple river yellows
   Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
   Stillness overcomes me in the night
   Listen to the rising water moan

   [Chorus]
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   [Verse 2]
   Shudders all through me shudder away
   Echo me, echo me (echo me...)
   Am I alone or is the river alive
   'Cause it echos me, echos me, echos me

   [Chorus]
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   Waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   [outro]
   I'm waiting for the night boat

5. New Religion

   New Religion

   ×

   [Verse 1]
   I've been now sauntering
   Out and down the path sometime
   Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I know
   Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things
   Telling me not there, man, it's no go

   I need a reason
   I can't think without one now
   Too much learning got to show
   Call it treason
   Maybe catch her, don't know how
   Too many things, too much to know

   I'll bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind
   Lady screaming, lady leave me out
   Cause sometimes people stare
   Sitting down, electric chair
   Steaming crowds they gather and they shout

   [Chorus 1]
   [Backing vocal Simon LeBon lead vocal]
   Don't know why this evil bothers me
   Take another chance boy, carry the fight
   You can take him if you're fast
   So why is he trying to follow me?
   Didn't I say if you're holding on
   You'd be laughing at the last
   How many reasons do they need?
   I get along fine with them friends of mine
   But you have to make a choice
   I might just believe this time
   You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time
   And it's us who makes the noise

   [Chorus 2]
   I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself
   It's a new religion
   I've something to see, I can't help myself
   It's a new religion

   [Verse 2]
   Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun
   But someone sees the departmental lie
   You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife
   Only get one look before you die

   [Chorus 1]

   [Chorus 2]

   [Verse 3]
   Got to take pay the saints 'n sinners
   In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things
   Walking in formation down the lane
   They carry their cross, make a church bell ring
   Army majors pull a mean cool truth
   They're lying in a swimming pool
   Searching for the undeniable truth that
   A man is just a fool

   [Chorus 1]

   [Chorus 2]

6. Save A Prayer

   Save A Prayer

   ×

   [Intro]

   [Verse 1]
   You saw me standing by the wall
   Corner of a main street
   And the lights are flashing on your window sill
   All alone ain't much fun
   So you're looking for the thrill
   And you know just what it takes
   And where to go

   [Chorus]
   Don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after
   No, don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after

   [Verse 2]
   Feel the breeze deep on the inside
   Look you down into your well (Do-do-do-do-do)
   If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire (Do-do-do-do-do)
   Take a chance like all dreamers
   You can't find another way (Do-do-do-do-do)
   You don't have to dream it all
   Just live a day (Do-do-do-do-do)

   [Chorus]
   Don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after
   No, don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after

   [Verse 3]
   Pretty looking road
   I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin (Do-do-do-do-do)
   Don't ask me why, I'll keep my promise
   Melt the ice (Do-do-do-do-do)
   And you wanted to dance
   So I asked you to dance
   But fear is in your soul (Do-do-do-do-do)
   Some people call it a one-night stand
   But we can call it paradise (Do-do-do-do-do)

   [Chorus]
   Don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after
   No, don't say a prayer for me now
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after
   Save it 'til the morning after

   [Bridge]
   Do-do-do-do-do
   Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do

   [Outro]
   Save a prayer 'til the morning after
   Save a prayer 'til the morning after
   Save a prayer 'til the morning after
   Save a prayer 'til the morning after...

   Only came outside to watch the night fall with the rain
   I heard you making patterns rhyme
   Like some new romantic looking for the TV sound
   You'll see I'm right some other time

   Look now, look all around, there's no sign of life
   Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
   This is Planet Earth, you're looking at Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth

   My head is stuck on something precious
   Let me know if you're coming down to land
   Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
   My eyes are so cloudy I can't see you

   Look now, look all around, there's no sign of life
   Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
   This is Planet Earth, you're looking at Planet Earth

   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   This is Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   Calling Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   Looking at Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   This is Planet Earth

   [Verse 1]
   Friends of mine
   They said they were friends of mine
   Said they were passing time
   More like a waste of time

   Close the door
   I said close the door
   I've told you twice before
   What are you waiting for?

   [Chorus]
   Georgie Davis is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking anymore
   Rocky Picture has lost his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore, hey, hey

   [Verse 2]
   Silly lies
   Don't have to advertise
   When will you realize?
   I'm sick of your alibis

   Running cold
   The water's running cold
   It's time that you were told
   I think you're growing old

   [Chorus]
   Georgie Davies is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore
   Rocky Picture has lost his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking any more (hey, hey)

   [Bridge]
   I see you smile
   Pictures on the wall, they're all friends of mine
   See you standing 'round the back (friends of mine)
   Think yourself lucky

   [Verse 3]
   Friends of mine
   They said they were friends of mine
   They were just wasting time
   Out on the dotted line

   Oh, money's gone
   I've known it all along
   Why don't you say I'm wrong?
   Why don't they drop the bomb?

   [Chorus]
   'Cause Georgie Davies is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore
   Rocky Picture's thrown away his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking any more

   [Outro]
   What you doing, friends of mine?
   Holding back now, friends of mine
   I've always heard you calling

   [Verse 1]
   So soon
   Just after you've gone
   My senses sharpen
   But it always takes
   So damned long
   Before I feel how much
   My eyes have darkened

   [Chorus 1]
   Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke
   Drifting in our room
   So easy to disturb
   With a thought
   With a whisper
   With a careless memory

   [Verse 2]
   On the table
   Signs of love life scattered
   And the walls break
   We go crashing within
   It's not as though
   As though you really mattered
   But being close
   How could I let you go
   Without some feeling
   Some precious sympathy following

   [Chorus 1]

   [Verse 3]
   I walk out into the sun
   I try to find a new day
   But the whole place
   It just screams in my eyes
   Where are you now?
   Cause I don't want to meet you
   I think I'd die
   I think I'd laugh at you
   I think I'd cry
   What am I supposed to do
   Follow you?

   [Chorus 1]

    You've done it all, you've broken every code
    And pulled the rebel to the floor
    You spoilt the game, no matter what you say
    For only metal - what a bore!
    Blue eyes, blue eyes; how can you tell so many lies?

    Come up and see me, make me smile
    Or do what you want, runnin' wild

    There's nothing left, all gone and run away
    Maybe you'll tarry for a while
    It's just a test, a game for us to play
    Win or lose, it's hard to smile
    Resist, resist; it's from yourself you have to hide

    Come up and see me, make me smile
    Or do what you want, runnin' wild

    There ain't no more, you've taken everything
    From my belief in Mother Earth
    How can you ignore my faith in everything
    Cause' I know what faith is, what it's worth
    Away, away, and don't say maybe you'll try

    Come up and see me, make me smile
    Or do what you want, runnin' wild

    Ohhhhhhhhh la la la
    Ohhhhhhhhh la la la ohhhhhh

    Come up and see me, make me smile
    Or do what you want, runnin' wild

    Ohhhhhhhhh la la la
    Ohhhhhhhhh la la la ohhhhhh

    Come up and see me, make me smile

    [Intro]
    Sound of Camera shutters flickering

    [Verse 1]
    See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
    Heads turning as the lights flashing out it's so bright
    Then walk right out to the four-line track
    There's a camera rolling on her back, on her back
    And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine

    [Chorus]
    Girls on film
    Girls on film
    Girls on film
    Girls on film

    [Verse 2]
    Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
    In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
    The diving man's coming up for air
    Cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
    And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again

    [Chorus]
    Girls on film (two minutes later)
    Girls on film
    Girls on film (got your picture)
    Girls on film

    [Verse 3]
    Wider baby smiling you just made a million
    Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
    Take one last glimpse into the night
    I'm touching close I'm holding bright, holding tight
    Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star

    [Chorus-Outro]
    Girls on film (she's more than a lady)
    Girls on film
    Girls on film (two minutes later)
    Girls on film
    Girls on film (see you together)
    Girls on film
    Girls on film (see you later)
    Girls on film
    Girls on film (what you doing)
    Girls on film...
