"Wasted Sunsets"


(Blackmore/Glover/Gillan)


The day is gone

when the angels come to stay

And all the silent whispers

will be blown away

And lying in the corner

a pair of high heel shoes

Hanging on the wall

gold and silver for the blues


One too many wasted sunsets

One too many for the road

And after dark the door is always open

Hoping someone else will show


Someone is waiting behind

an unlocked door

Grey circles overhead empties

on the floor

The cracks in the walls have

grown too long

The slow hand is dragging on

afraid to meet the dawn


One too many wasted sunsets

One too many for the road

And after dark the door is always open

Hoping someone else will show


"Anyone's Daughter"


I stood under your bedroom window

Throwing up a brick

No one came I threw one more

That really did the trick

Your daddy came and banged my head

He said what kind of man

Is this that's hanging 'round my girl

And threw me in the car

You're a farmer's daughter

You're a farmer's daughter

Why do I always get

The kinda girl I didn't oughta get

I won't get no more eggs and water

Now I've laid the farmer's daughter


Imagine I was a full-grown man

And I could talk just right

Could I come and see you here

And do this every night

Wham! The door comes crashing down

Your daddy's face all pale

Says come with me you hairy bum

I'll put you in my jail

You're a judge's daughter

You're a judge's daughter

Why do I always get

The kinda girl I didn't oughta v et

Now I'm getting jail and torture

'Cause I made the judge's daughter


It seems they're screaming law and order

When I go with anyone's daughter


Woman I should like some peace

And daddy hold your tongue

I think you're gonna die of fright

When I tell you what I've done

I can hear your tales and lies

You say I'm dumb and scraggy

But man this dumb and scraggy is

Your daughter's baby's daddy

She's a lucky daughter

Such a lucky daughter

Why did I always get

The kinda girl I didn't wanna get

Now I've got what I always fought for

'Cause I've married a rich man's daughter


"Lazy"


You're lazy just stay in bed

You're lazy just stay in bed

You don't want no money

You don't want no bread


If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw

If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw

You don't want to live you don't want to cry no more


Well my trying ain't done no good

I said my trying ain't done no good

You don't make no effort no not like you should


Lazy you just stay in bed

Lazy you just stay in bed

You don't want no money

You don't want no bread


"Rat Bat Blue"

Sweet woman, are you all alone ?

I'm gonna keep you busy as a bee, could bee, could be

Rat bat blue

Rat bat blue

You're so fine


Get out ! You didn't understand

"Love Child"


You can walk through fire

Make the north wind blow

Squeeze 'n' tease me honey

When you shake your body

You move my soul

Let me be your lover

Won't you let me be your child

Take me through your universe

Y'know that when you smile

You drive me wild


Love child

Driving me wild

Love child

Always teasin' me


You can ride your pony

Day dream in fairy tales

All I know is I need more

When I see you dance the seven veils


"You Fool No One"


(Ritchie Blackmore, David Coverdale, Jon Lord & Ian Paice)


You fool no one, waiting to see if I'm gone.

So hard to see you are taking your chances with me.

If I find you with some other man

you know what I'm gonna do.

Better run if you see me comin', ah.


Soon you will fall, making mistakes like before.

When you tell me lies I can see by the look in your eyes.

If you think you're gonna take me for granted,

chasin' round with all you see,

gonna make you live to regret it, ah.


You fool no one, waiting to see if I'm gone.

So clear to see you've had all your chances with me.

You thought that you could take me for granted

but I couldn't take it no more.

Better run when you see me comin, ah.


"The Spanish Archer"


(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover)


well there must have been a reason for the smile that you had upon your

face last night

are you the cat that got the cream did you lick your lips did you close

your eyes

can you imagine how it feels it's so hard to reveal

oh i can't get through and i'm falling

i'm getting out i'm losing ground

the spanish archer's gonna bring you down


is there someone somewhere waiting in the wings to take my place

let's not drag it out like a cagney death scene

in this season of change it's not hard to explain

like the leaves on the trees i'm falling

and as you turn don't look away

the spanish archer's gonna make you pay


do you remember when the sky was blue we used to talk for miles

and now we drive along in this thundering silence

it's such an obvious lie with that easy smile of yours

i'm letting go and i'm falling

i'm getting out losing ground

the spanish archer's gonna bring you down


well is there something i can say as we stumble to the edge have we gone

too far

why don't we call it a day before we call it a nightmare darlin'

if we made a mistake then all that it takes to be free

is the wave of a hand and you're falling and as you turn don't look away

the spanish archer's gonna make you pay
