Sammy Hagar Tribute EP

 This Planet's On Fire (Burn In Hell)

Cancelled flights, limousines
Hustle bustles, crazy scenes
First you're here, then you're there
Pretty soon man, you been everywhere
This planet's on fire Satan's desire
We've seen the rise, we'll see the fall
He's here to see us all burn in hell

Time ticks away, faster, faster
You run so fast you forget what you're after
You make a deal to sell your soul
Just to find out it's been sold
This planet's on fire Satan's desire
We've seen the rise, we'll see the fall
He's here to see us all burn in hell

Fine, white lines of crystal light
Keep us up all day and all night
We're just forgotten boys and girls
Who thrive on cosmic toys
This planet's on fire Satan's desire
We've seen the rise, we'll see the fall
He's here to see us all burn in hell

Heavy Metal

Head bangers in leather sparks fly in the dead of the night
It all comes together when they shoot out the lights
50,000 watts of power and it's pushing overload
The beast is ready to devour all the metal they can hold
Reaching overload start to explode

It's your one way ticket to midnight
Call it Heavy Metal
Higher than high, feeling just right
Call it Heavy Metal
Desperation on a red line
Call it Heavy Metal noise

Tight pants and lipstick she's riding on razor's edge
She holds her own against the boys
Cuts through the crowd just like a wedge
Can you feel the static so many contacts being made
We've got up front fanatics tearing down the barricade
To reach the stage can you feel the rage

I Can't Drive 55

One foot on the brake and one on the gas
Well, there's too much traffic, I can't pass
So I tried my best illegal move
A big black and white come and crushed my groove again
Go on and write me up for 125 post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive I can't drive 55

So I signed my name on number twenty four
The judge said just one more
I'm gonna throw your ass in the city joint
Looked me in the eye, said you get my point?
I say write me up for 125 post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive I can't drive 55

When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer
And I can't get my car out of second gear
What used to take two hours now takes all day
It took me 16 hours to get to L.A.
Go on and write me up for 125 post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive I can't drive 55

Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy

I don't mind when you act your age
It suits me fine that you treat me like a child
And I can't deny when I'm with you
That you step outside of all those fears locked up inside
Your love is driving me crazy your love just takes me away
Your love is driving me crazy it takes me all the way

What I like is what you've got to offer
Just my type don't mind playing on the edge
Your love is driving me crazy your love just takes me away
Your love is driving me crazy it takes me all the way

Lead me to forbidden doors you know I'm yours
You got it I want it don't you know it
Right on time a tight fit right on the money
So sublime hot, sweet cherries on the vine
Your love is driving me crazy your love just takes me away
Your love is driving me crazy it takes me all the way

Never Say Die

Fight for my freedom, I don't need a gun or a knife
I just need some open space to run for my life
The ground is sinking and the walls closing in
When I get to the bottom, I get up, start all over again
Just passing time until the big one as we leave it all behind
And move on up to a brighter future it's no easy climb
But I'll never say die I'll never say die

My mom and dad never understood
Compared to their problems, you know, mine looked good
They screamed where's the money and where's all the love
And where's the help from the man up above?
I never gave up my religion as I did my teenage time
I said when I'm of age, I wanna walk out smiling maybe I'll cry
But I'll never say die I'll never say die

Two generations I've been through
Sixty Nine was heavy but what did it prove?
Just a bunch of hippies could become businessmen
And burn a body, a flag and a couple of friends
Now as we enter 1980 we're modern humans in a modern time
So all you children of the sixties it's no easy climb
But I'll never say die I'll never say die
But don't ever say die don't you ever say die

Growing Pains

I got tired of my present situation so I tried rolling over the stone
Even tried to make a change of occupation but my conscience wouldn't leave me alone
You know, even the rich have their problems I mean you never quite get enough
So you drink it away, take it out on the kids and all that funky stuff
You got growing pains you gotta rearrange got them growing pains

And lately my friends have been telling me that I'm changing way too fast
If there's one thing I don't want to do it's rely on my broken-down past
Because I hear the call of the wild and opportunity is leaning on me
And stuck in this town for the rest of my life is one place I don't want to be
I got growing pains I gotta rearrange got them growing pains
How long you gotta grow  I don't wanna grow any more got them nasty old growing pains

Picked her up at seven feeling pretty good by nine
We cruise the local hang-outs it's the same places every time
Just head for the nearest party or the darkest back street
And I'm making love peeping over my shoulder my pants down around my feet
Give me growing pains I gotta rearrange got them growing pains
