I was nothing but a lonely boy Looking for something new. And you were nothing but a lonely girl But you were something Something like a dream come true I was a varsity tackle and a hell of a block When I played my guitar I made the canyons rock -- but -- Every saturday night I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go
In the middle of a steaming night Im tossing in my sleep And in the middle of a red-eyed dream I see you coming Coming on to give it to me
I was out on the prowl down by the edge of the track And like a son of a jackal Im a leader of the pack -- but -- Every saturday night I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go
Oh, baby, Im a hunter in the dark of the forest Ive been stalking you and tracking you downr Cruising up and down the main drag all night long We could be standing at the top of the world Instead of sinking further down in the mud You and me round about midnight You and me round about midnight Someones got to draw first
Draw first Someones got to draw first blood Someones got to draw first blood Oooh I got to draw first blood Oooh I got to draw first blood
I was out on the prowl down by the edge of the track -- And like a son of a jackal Im a leader of the pack -- but -- Every saturday night I felt the fever grow
Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go Do ya know what its like All revved up with no place to go
I was nothing but a lonely all-american boy Looking out for something to do And you were nothing but a lonely all-american girl But you were something like a dream come true I was a varsity tackle and a hell of a block And when I played my guitar I made the canyons rock But every saturday night I felt the fever grow All revved up with no place to go All revved up with no place to go All revved up with no place to go All revved up with no place to go All revved up with no place to go
If you listen, to the night You can hear the darkness call I can barely stand to wait I can barely stand at all Cmon closer to me now Its like were sharing the same skin We gotta get out of this jail We gotta let the future in So many things in your life That your bound to regret Why didnt I do that? Why didnt I do this? So many chances you lost That youll never forget Why didnt I make it? Why didnt I take it right there? The loneliest words youll ever know If only-if only it was so The emptiest words that therell ever be: It could have been me. it could have been me The loneliest words youll ever know If only-if only it was so The emptiest words that therell ever be: It could have been me. it could have been me Youll have to pay for it later If you dont get it when its going for free Believe me -! believe me -!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste A kiss is a terrible thing to waste Its something thats always been so A kiss is a terrible thing to waste A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights Youre gonna show me that you already know Theres a feast waiting for you And youve never even gotten a taste Its later than you think and A kiss is a terrible thing to waste! You shouldnt tremble when we touch Theres no reason for these fears Its a promise that was made Weve been promised this for years I wanna show you it all What to do and where and how! Cause well never be as young as we are right now Well never be as young as we are right now!
So many cries in the night That you try to ignore Why didnt I do this? Why didnt I do that? So many unanswered prayers So many unopened doors Why didnt I take it? Why didnt I make it come true? The loneliest words youll ever know: If only - if only it was so The emptiest words that therell ever be: It could have been me It could have been me The loneliest words youll ever- know: If only - if only it was so The emptiest words that therell ever be: It could have been me It could have been me Youll have to pay for it later: If you dont get it when its going for free! Believe me! believe me, believe me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste A kiss is a terrible thing to waste Its something that has always been so A kiss is a terrible thing to waste A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights Im gonna show you that you already know... Theres a feast waiting for you And youve never even gotten a taste Its later than, you think and A kiss is a terrible thing to waste! Theres a feast waiting for you And youve never even gotten a taste Its later than you think and A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts Thats all were leaving behind! It doesnt matter what were losing It only matters what were going to find! Tyre tracks and broken hearts Thats all were leaving behind! It doesnt matter what were losing It only matters what were going to find! Tyre tracks and broken hearts Thats all were leaving behind! It doesnt matter what were losing It only matters what were going to find! Tyre tracks and broken hearts Thats all were leaving behind! It doesnt matter what were losing It only matters what were going to find! Theres a feast waiting for you And youve never even gotten a taste Its later than you think and A kiss is a terrible thing to waste A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Om er meteen goed in te vliegen, heb ik een lijst opgesteld met ALLE liedjes van Meat Loaf (= discografie), alle albums en een biografie geplaatst (die ik nog uit het Engels ga vertalen). Nadien ga ik alle lyrics plaatsen.
Biografie( ga ik nog vertalen)
Marvin Lee Aday was a singer and occasional actor who, for reasons never definitively answered, recorded under the name Meat Loaf. In all likelihood a childhood nickname, the tag stuck, and many puns followed as the performer -- who tipped the scales at well over 300 pounds -- became one of the biggest chart acts of the 1970s before enjoying a commercial renaissance two decades later.
Meat Loaf was born in Dallas, Texas. The product of a family of gospel singers, he moved to Los Angeles in 1967 and formed a group known as both Meat Loaf Soul and Popcorn Blizzard. The band earned some renown through opening gigs in support of the Who, the Stooges, and Ted Nugent before Meat Loaf won a role in a West Coast production of the musical Hair. During a tour stop in Detroit, he and a fellow castmate named Stoney teamed to record the 1971 LP Stoney & Meat Loaf for Motown's Rare Earth imprint.
After a tenure in the off-Broadway production Rainbow (In New York), Meat Loaf earned a slot in More Than You Deserve, a musical written by classically trained pianist Jim Steinman. An appearance in the cult film The Rocky Horror Picture Show followed, and in 1976 Meat Loaf also handled vocal duties on one side of Nugent's LP Free-for-All. Soon, Meat Loaf re-teamed with Steinman for a tour with the National Lampoon Road Show, after which Steinman began composing a musical update of the Peter Pan story titled Never Land.
Ultimately, much of what Steinman composed for Never Land became absorbed into 1977's Bat Out of Hell, the album which made Meat Loaf a star. Produced by Todd Rundgren, the record was pure melodrama, a teen rock opera which spawned three Top 40 singles -- "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad," "Paradise by the Dashboard Light," and "You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth" -- on its way to becoming one of the best-selling albums of the decade.
A sequel was planned, but in 1981 Steinman issued his own solo debut, Bad for Good. After Meat Loaf released his own follow-up, Dead Ringer, rumors began flying, and it was reported that Loaf had been unable to record the songs which comprised the Steinman album due to physical and emotional problems. Eventually, Steinman filed suit against Meat Loaf and his label, Epic, and none of his songs appeared on the 1983 Meat Loaf effort Midnight at the Lost and Found. After subsequent records like 1984's Bad Attitude and 1986's Blind Before I Stop bombed, the singer declared bankruptcy and began physical and psychological rehabilitation to restore his road-ravaged voice.
After several years in relative obscurity, Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman reunited in 1993 for Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell, which continued the original's storyline and duplicated its thunderous sound. The follow-up proved almost as successful than the first Bat Out of Hell, selling over five million copies and yielding a massive hit single with "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)." Without Steinman, he returned in 1995 with Welcome to the Neighborhood. ..
