I'm a streetwalking cheetah with a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb
I am the world's forgotten boy
The one who searches and destroys
Honey gotta help me please
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, detonate for me
Oh
Look out honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a fire fight
Honey, gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, penetrate my mind
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', only to destroy, hey
Look out honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a fire fight
Honey, gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, penetrate my mind
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', only to destroy, hey
Forgotten boy, forgotten boy
Forgotten boy said, hey, forgotten boy, said
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Status seekers, I never cared
Once I found out they never dared
To seize the world and shake it upside down
And every stinking bum should wear a crown
Sayin' I cry for love
Till all the plates are broken
Cry for love
Until my eyes are soakin', yeah
Cry for love
On every salmon morning, yeah I
Cry for love
'Cause imitation's boring, cry for love
Cry for love, cry for love
Bad tv that insults me freely
Still, I know what I'm dyin' to see
In searching for a meaningful embrace
Sometimes my self-respect took second place
And I cried for love
I did what my heart told me
Cried for love
Can't stand it when they scold me, yeah I
Cried for love
On every salmon morning, yeah I
Cry for love
'Cause imitation's boring, cry for love
Cry for love, cry for love, cry for love
Surfers ride for love and wipe out when it hits 'em
Soldiers kill for love and nobody admits it
If you're cryin' for love, well, that's ok don't sweat it
If you're cryin' for love then there's still a chance you'll get it, cry for love
Cry for love, cry for love
Cry for love

Gimme danger little stranger
And I'll give you a piece
Gimme danger little stranger
And I'll feel your disease
There's nothing in my dreams
Just some ugly memories
Kiss me like the ocean breeze
Now if you will be my lover
I will shiver and sing
But if you can be my master
I will do anything
There's nothing left alive
But a pair of glassy eyes
Raise my spirits one more time
Find your little stranger
Find a little stranger
Baby gonna feel my hand
Say gotta gimme danger
Wild little stranger.
Honey gonna feel my hand.
Swear you're gonna feel my hand.
It's a rainy afternoon
In 1990
The big city geez it's been 20 years -
Candy - you were so fine
Beautiful, beautiful
Girl from the north
You burned my heart
With a flickering torch
I had a dream that no one else could see
You gave me love for free
Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
Candy, candy , Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
Candy baby
Yeah, well it hurt me real bad when you left
I'm glad you got out
But I miss you
I've had a hole in my heart
For so long
I've learned to fake it and
Just smile along
Down on the street
Those men are all the same
I need a love
Not games
Not games
Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
I know baby Candy baby
Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
