Nobody Knows Lyrics – Billy Squier

I may get around...I may laugh alot...
Now you'd think that I'd be happy with the life I got
Nobody knows...nobody sees
Ain't nobody really knows the inner side o'me...

I may seem secure...I could have it made...
You might think you see a lucky man who made the grade
Nobody knows what dreams I see
Ain't nobody really sure just who they wanna be...

But everybody has a place and time...
A chance to live...a need to find
We all got somethin' that we care about
I propose you find it out...

It's not in a book...or a magazine...
Or the stars who guide our fortunes on the silver screen
Nobody knows...it's up to me
Ain't nobody who can say it like it outght to be...

I see my future at the rainbow's end
Happy hours...timeless friends
And if I ever chance to find my way
Rest assured...I will stay...

You may see your life as a compromise
You may live to find the promise dancin' in your eyes
Nobody knows...it's meant to be...
Let the magic of the moment say it all to me

I Need You Lyrics – Billy Squier

I rise at the break of day--your smile sets me on my way
I need you
See the light shinin' in your eyes--see the hopes that I realize
For you
I am alone...my odds are long...s'all I can do...
I need you...

Take the road where the eagle flies--man follows where his fortune lies
I leave you
Shadows fall and the day is done--the curtain calls but more than anyone
I need you
When I feel low...my amps they blow...when I feel blue
I need you...

And I forget all my sorrow, I forget all my pain
I relinquish my doubts at the sound of your name
I can feel your desire when I walk through that door
I believe in the power that can even the score

Never knew it could take so long--never knew it could feel so wrong without you
They say a woman knows the reasons why--no man ain't supposed to cry
I need you
When after all...my tears they fall...when I pull through...
I need you...

Don't Say No Lyrics – Billy Squier

We live in confusion times--my world is a vice
Nobody gets out alive...but you can break through the ice
Don't say no

My wounds are the open kind--I bleed every day
I pray for a change of mind...you could take me away
Don't say no

Take on the system, playin' on the wrong side
Spend all my money tryin' to have a good time
Come 'round to see you from time to time
Week in the knees and I'm busted

Some people they treat me kind...some drive me away
Some people they blow your mind...it's not easy today
Don't say no

I live on the borderline...you come from the void
I beg you to cross the line...you take good care of your boy
Don't say no

Got me a ticket sittin' on a gold mine
Send me the int'rest, take me where the sun shines
Come 'round to see me from time to time
Bring it to me when I'm busted

One minute I'm outa time...I don't fit in your game
You kill me in overtime...I don't remember my name
One minute you're on my mind...next minute you're gone
You tell me to read the signs...they tell me we're on
Don't say no...

"Tale Of The Tape" (1980)

Big Beat Lyrics – Billy Squier

I got the big beat
I hear the sound
I got the big beat
I get on down

I hear the big beat
All through the town
I got the big beat
I get around

There's no time for hesitation
We got all we need to know
Don't deny the situation
Find it everywhere you go

Life it's the big beat
Roll to the sound
I got the big beat
Oh gather 'round

I got the big beat
Down in my shoes
I got the big beat
I'm gonna give it to you

It's the line of fascination
It's the rage both near and far
Synchronize a generation - yeah
It don't matter who you are - oh yeah

I got the big beat
I'll show you how
I got the big beat
You got it now - oh yeah

Calley Oh Lyrics – Billy Squier

I thought I knew the Story.
I thought I'd seen it all
Those days of love and glory.
But now I hear you call

Calley Oh
See there's nowhere to hide
Calley Oh
I can feel you inside
Don't you know
That I can't hold back
I keep on coming after you

You never compromise me.
You never find it hard
You never recognize me.
You throw me off my guard

Calley Oh
With the roads that you pave
Calley Oh
You can have it your way
Don't you know
That I can't hold back
I keep on coming after you

I go chasing moonshine racing you may wonder why
If I find my true love ever
I will never
I will never say good bye

I'm past the point of caring.
It's just your point of view
I'm Past the point of sharing.
I gave it all to you

Calley Oh
You can see thru my eyes
Calley Oh
You could never disguise
What you know … That I can't hold back
I keep on coming after you
Calley Oh
You're my nights and my days
Calley Oh
Finding my way
Don't You know that I can't hold back
I keep on coming after you.

Rich Kid Lyrics – Billy Squier

The rich kids got the money
The rich kids play the stars
Walk around in fancy clothes
And drive them flashy cars

The rich girls get the jewelery
The rich boys get the girls
Playin' "Mr. Romeo"
They think they own the world

Breakdown you can lose control
They don't think nothin' of you
Not unless you're a rich kid too

Rich kid - I wanna be a rich kid too
Rich kid - I wanna be a rich like you

I ain't got no money - and I ain't got a home
I hang around the parking lot when all the cars are gone
I don't read the papers - the news is all the same
Tell you it's a rich man's world -
And you play the rich man's game

Come 'round to the judgement day there won't be nothin' for you
Not unless you're a rich kid too
You're a rich kid too

Rich kid - I wanna be a rich kid too
Rich kid - I wanna be a rich like you

Don't care what price I pay
I ain't got nothin' to lose
I wanna be rich like you
I won't be shot down when I get my way
I won't be comin' to you
Cause I'll be a rich kid too

Rich kid - I wanna be a rich kid too
Rich kid - I wanna be a rich like you...

Like I'm Lovin' You Lyrics – Billy Squier

I been thinkin' a lot about you lately
Sitting here wasting my time
You know that my dreams don't come easy
I lost them before it's no lie

It isn't so hard when you know me
To see where my thoughts go astray
My feelings for you they control me
I'm lost in your world night and day

And I want you to feel that way too
Love me like I'm lovin' you
Pick me up when I'm blue
Know in your heart that it's true

I been seein' a lot of you lately
Not as much as I want to sometimes
We both have our lives to be leading
And I can't always be by your side

If you see insecurity showing
Don't turn me out in the rain
I have nowhere else to be going
And it's here that I want to remain

And I want you to feel that way too
Love me like I'm lovin' you
Pick me up when I'm blue
Know in your heart that it's true

Have I told you, how I want you
Now I told you, and I want you today

And I want you to feel that way too
Love me like I'm lovin' you
Pick me up when I'm bluer than blue
Love me like I'm lovin' you

Who Knows What A Love Can Do Lyrics – Billy Squier

It's a wrong side of town kinda love
We let ourselves get into
People try to change this world
Around me and you

We gotta try, try a bit harder
If what they say is true
And who knows what a love can do

Who knows what a love can do
Who knows what a love can do

Now we're left standing here all alone
Outside lookin' in
And I can tell from the things I see it's no way to begin
But I don't care what the people say as long as I got you
'Cause who knows what a love can do

Who knows what a love can do
Who knows what a love can do

Don't care if they knock on me
Ain't no way I can give
The kinda things they want from me
Ain't the way I want to live

We gotta try, try a bit harder
You know we might make it through
And who knows what a love can do

Who knows what a love can do
Who knows what a love can do

You Should Be High, Love Lyrics – Billy Squier

Some say love is borrowed time
A lonely loan only lovers find
It's got you down, you're on the line
I can read you like a book
Say I can read your mind

You been holdin' back the hands of time
Heavensakes you know you should be flyin'

You should be high love, you should be my love
You should be high love, you should be my love

You've been left to your own devices
Hand out, tongue out, compromises
You're the first to go but the last in line
And if you lose your love you can lose your mind

You been runnin' outta borrowed time
Heavensakes you know you should be flyin'

You should be high love, you should be my love
You should be high love, you should be my love
If shadows should find you
Put 'em behind you
You should be high love, you should be my love
You should be high love, you should be my love

It's all behind you
Let the spirit find you
And the love light blind you

You should be high love, you should be my love
You should be high love, you should be my love
If shadows should find you
Put 'em behind you
You should be high love, you should be my love
You should be high love, you should be my love

Who's Your Boyfriend Lyrics – Billy Squier

Another day with nothin' to do
Spend my time lookin' for you
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now
I asked around but nobody knows
Where you've gone in all your fine clothes
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now

Not since the day you first caught my eye
Has anything moved me, my heart's on the fly, uh huh
And I got a feelin'

Spend my time out on the street
I'm so tired I can't feel my feet
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now

People say I'm tryin' too hard
But if I knew the way, I'd be in your backyard
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now

Don't say I'm crazy, I already know
I picked up the pieces, I got nothin' to show
And I got a feelin'

I never could see
Why women could do these things to me

Another day I'm out on my own
I don't know if I'm comin' or goin'
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now
You got style, I just can't ignore
But if I had a key I'd be in your front door
Who's your boyfriend
Who's your boyfriend now

How does it happen, you're so hard to find
I can't seem to reach you, I'm losin' my mind
And I got a feelin'
Who's your boyfriend now
Who's your boyfriend

Music's All Right lyrics - billy squier

Now I know, that life can be unkind
I know, that love is hard to find
When I'm breakin' down inside I know
Oh I know, I know that if I don't despair
I know, that there's a world out there
Somethin' tells me down inside, I know, oh I know

That the music's all right
Say the music's all right
The music's all right wherever I go

Now I know that friends can let you down
I know, we all been passed around
When I need a place to hide, I know
Yes I know

That the music's all right
Say the music's all right
The music's all right wherever I go
Say the music's all right
Say the music's all right
The music's all right wherever I go

Now I know that when my hope is gone
I know, that I can carry on
I go searchin' down inside, I know
Oh I know, I know, I know

That the music's all right
Say the music's all right
The music's all right wherever I go, oh I know, I know, I know
Say the music's all right
Say the music's all right
The music's all right wherever I go

Young Girls lyrics - billy squier

I could love you where you lie whatcha want me to do
You don't even have to try always somebody new
Never sure what your talkin' about
Never wantin' to be left out

Cause you're a live wire but you've lots to learn
Live wire your fuse will burn

Young girls you talk so loud
Move fast now you act so proud
Young girls ya talk so bold
You wont find much when you get old

Livin' in the past is so easy to do
Ah but nothin' seems to last you can never be true
Now you talk of all those places you've been
All along you been makin' the scene

Cause you're a live wire but you don't understand
I ain't your ticket to to the promised land

Young girls you talk so loud
Move fast now you act so proud
Young girls you talk so bold
You won't find much when you get old

Every woman in her time's known a young girl like you
Though she may be hard to find there's a woman in you
Come and see me when you've grown a few years
Come the time you'll be changin' your gears

Cause your a live wire but you don't understand
I ain't your ticket to a one night stand

Rip This Joint lyrics - billy squier

Mama says yes, Papa says no
Make up you mind, 'cause I gotta go
I'm gonna raise hell at the Union Hall
Drive myself right over the wall

Rip this joint, gonna save your soul
So round and round and round we go
Roll this joint, gonna get down low
Start my starter, gonna stop the show

Mister President, mister immigration man
Let me in, sweetie, to your fair land
I'm Tampa bound and Memphis too
Short Fat Fanny is on the loose
Dig that sound on the radio
Then slip it right across into Buffalo
Dick and Pat in ol' D.C.
Well they're gonna hold some grits for me

Ying yang, you're my thing
Oh now baby, won't you hear me sing
Flip flop, fit to drop
Come on baby, won't you let it rock

From San Jose down to Santa Fe
Kiss me quick baby, won'tcha make my day
Down to New Orleans with the Dixie Queen
'Cross to Dallas, Texas with the Butter Queen

Rip this joint, gonna rip yours too
Some brand new steps and some weight to lose
Gonna roll this joint, gonna get down low
So round and round and round we'll go

Wham, bam, Birmingham, Alabam' don't give a damn
Little Rock fit to drop
Ah, let it rock
