Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- The Boys Are Back In Town .. Everclear


Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

You know the chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming

That night over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
It won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Shout It Out Loud .. Kiss


Well, the night's begun and you want some fun
Do you think you're gonna find it, think you're gonna find it
You got to treat yourself like number one
Do you need to be reminded, need to be reminded
It doesn't matter what you do or say
Just forget the things that you've been told
We can't do it any other way
Everybody's got to rock and roll, oh, oh, oh, ooh

Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

If you don't feel good, there's a way you could
Don't sit there broken hearted, sit there broken hearted
Call all your friends in the neighborhood
And get the party started, get the party started

Don't let 'em tell you that there's too much noise
They're too old to really understand
You'll still get rowdy with the girls and boys
'Cause it's time for you to take a stand, yeah, yeah

Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, you've got to have a party
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, turn it up louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, and everybody shout it now
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, oh yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, I hear it gettin' louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, and everybody shout it now
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, oh

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Runnin' With The Devil .. Van Halen


I live my life like there's no tomorrow
And all I've got I had to steal
Least I don't need to beg or borrow
Yes, I'm livin' at a pace that kills

Runnin' with the devil

I found the simple life ain't so simple
When I jumped out on that road
I got no love, no love you'd call real
Ain't got nobody waitin' at home

Runnin' with the devil

You know I, I found the simple life
Weren't so simple, no
When I jumped out on that road
Got no love, no love you'd call real
Got nobody waitin' at home

Runnin' with the devil

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Cat Scratch Fever .. Pantera


Well, I don't know where they come from, but they sure do come
I hope they're comin' for me
And I don't know how they do it, but they sure do it good
I hope they're doin' it for free

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

Well, the first time that I got it I was just 10 years old
I got it from some kitty next door
I went to see the doctor and he gave me the cure
I think I got it some more

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
I got it bad, scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

It's nothing dangerous, I feel no pain - I've got to change
You know you got it when you're goin' insane
It makes a grown man cry, cry - Oh, won't you make my bed?

Well, I make a pussy purr with the stroke of my hand
They know they're gettin' it from me
And they know just where to go when they need their lovin' man
They know I'm doin' it for free

I give 'em cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
They got it bad, scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Iron Man .. Black Sabbath


Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he 'live or dead?
(Has he / Icy) thoughts with in his head?
We'll just pass him there,
Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel
in the great magnetic field
When he traveled time
for the future of mankind

Nobody wants him;
He just stares at the world,
Planning his vengeance
that he will soon unfurl

Now the time is here
for Iron Man to spread fear,
Vengeance from the grave
kills the people he once saved

Nobody wants him;
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
drills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can,
Iron Man lives again

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved

Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Highway To Hell .. Marilyn Manson


Living easy, living free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing I would rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too

I'm on the highway to hell

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me round
Hey, Satan, payed my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey, Momma, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land

I'm on the highway to hell
(Don't stop me)

And I'm going down, all the way down
I'm on the highway to hell

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- 20th Century Boy .. Drain


Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I walk like a rat
Crawl like a cat
Sting like a bee
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy

Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
Fly like a plane
Drive like a car
Ball like a hound
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy

Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I walk like a rat
Crawl like a cat
Sting like a bee
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Detroit Rock City .. Kiss


"...congressional reports. President Ford says that he's disappointed with Congress's performance. In Detroit, a Pontiac,
Michigan youth was reported dead at the scene of a head-on collision on Grand Avenue this morning. The youth was reportedly
driving on the wrong side of the boulevard when he struck a delivery truck and was catapulted through the windshild of his
car. The driver of the truck is reported to be uninjured. The identities of both men are being withheld by local police.
County legislatives today are expected to rally to the aid of striking longshoremen in hopes of ending the 9 month
deadlock..."
"...and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day..."

I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o'clock, the radio's the only light
I hear my song and it pulls me through
Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do, I got to

Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat
You gotta lose your mind in Detroit rock city

Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat

Getting late
I just can't wait
Ten o'clock and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start up the car, and I try to make the midnight show

Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat

Movin' fast, doin' 95
Hit top speed but I'm still movin' much too slow
I feel so good, I'm so alive
I hear my song playin' on the radio, it goes

Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat

Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die, why

Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet

Get up, everybody's gonna leave their seat

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Jailbreak .. Thin Lizzy


Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in this town
See me and the boys we don't like it
So were getting up and going down

Hiding low looking right to left
If you see us coming I think it's best
To move away do you hear what I say
From under my breath

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
So don't you be around

Don't you be around

Tonight there's gonna be trouble
Some of us won't survive
See the boys and me mean business
Bustin' out dead or alive

I can hear the hound dogs on my trail
All hell breaks loose, alarm and sirens wail
Like the game if you lose
Go to jail

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
So don't you be around

Tonight there's gonna trouble
I'm gonna find myself in
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
So woman stay with a friend

You know it's safer

Breakout!

Tonight there's gonna be a breakout
Into the city zones
Don't you dare to try and stop us
No one could for long

Searchlight on my trail
Tonight's the night all systems fail
Hey you good lookin' female
Come here!

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
So don't you be around

Tonight there's gonna be trouble
I'm gonna find myself in
Tonight there's gonna be trouble
So woman stay with a friend

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Surrender (Live) .. Cheap Trick


Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that's going round

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away

Father says, "Your mother's right, she's really up on things"
"Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines"
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away

Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Ev'ry time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?
When I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Rebel Rebel .. David Bowie


Got your mother in a whirl
She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl
Hey babe, your hair's alright
Hey babe, let's go out tonight
You like me and I like it all
We like dancing and we look divine
You love bands when they play it hard
You want more and you want it fast
Put you down and say I'm wrong
You tacky thing
You put them on

Rebel Rebel you've torn your dress
Rebel Rebel your face is a mess
Rebel Rebel how could they know
Hot Tramp I love you so

You've torn your dress
Your face is a mess
You can't get enough but it don't fake the test
You've got your transmission and a live wire
You've got your cue lines and a handful of ludes
You wanna be there when they count up the dues
And I love your dress
You've a juvenile success
Because your face is a mess
So how could they know
I said, how could they know

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Strutter .. The Donnas


I know a thing or two about her
I know she'll only make you cry
She'll let you walk the street beside her
But when she wants she'll pass you by

Everybody says she's lookin' good
And the lady knows it's understood
Strutter!

She wears her satins like a lady
She gets her way just like a child
You take her home and she says "Maybe Baby"
She takes you down and drives you wild

Everybody says she's lookin' good
And the lady knows it's understood
Strutter!

I know a thing or two about her
I know she'll only make you cry
She'll let you walk the street beside her
But when she wants she'll pass you by

Everybody says she's lookin' good
And the lady knows it's understood
Strutter!

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- School Days .. The Runaways


Used to be the trouble maker
Hated home, I was a sweet heart-breaker
And at
But now I have my dream
I'm so ready / rowdy for eighteen

Never had a single buck
Hated home, I'm done with looks
But now I live my life
There's a lot of / to see(in') at eighteen

School days, school days
I'm older now and what will I find but my
School days, school days
I'm starting to slip, I'm losing my mind

Used to be the riot / wired bomb
Hated class, only lived for fun
I'm mean and got my scheme
At the crazy age of eighteen

Never made the animal
Hated moon, that I was told
Now I am almost free
It's a dangerous scene when you're eighteen

School days, school days
I'm older now and what will I find but my
School days, school days
I'm starting to slip, I'm losing my mind

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Little Willy .. The Sweet


North side, east side
Little Willy, Willy wears the crown, he's the king around town
Dancing, glancing
Willy drives them silly with his star shoe shimmy shuffle down
Way past one, and feeling alright
'Cause with little Willy round they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down down

'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Up town, down town
Little Willy, Willy drives them wild with his run-around style
Inside, outside
Willy sends them silly with his star-shine shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down

'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't

Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round
Willy won't go, try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home

Detroit Rock City soundtrack lyrics -- Nothing Can Keep Me From You .. Kiss


Wherever you are, that's where I'm gonna be
No matter how far, you'll never be that far from me
Some how I would find you, move heaven and earth to be by your side
Oh, I'd walk, this world to walk, beside you

No mountain could ever stand between us
No ocean could ever be that wide
No river too deep to keep your love from me
I swear it's the truth
Nothing can keep me from you
There's no race I would not go to
No distance would ever be too far
To keep me away I'd always find a way
to show you it's true
Nothing can keep me from you

I gave you my word, I would be there for you
And you can be sure there's no mountain that I would not move
Just to lie beside you spend my whole life lookin in your eyes
Yeah, I swear, I'm there for you, forever

No mountain could ever stand between us
No ocean could ever be that wide
No river too deep to keep your love from me
I swear it's the truth
Nothing can keep me from you

And I would go anywhere to be anywhere you are
And I would do anything just to hold you in my arms
Nothing can stop a love this strong
Yeah I swear, I'm there, for you forever

No mountain could ever stand between us
No ocean could ever be that wide
No river to deep to keep your love from me
I swear it's the truth
Nothing can keep me from you
There's no race I would not go to
No distance would ever be too far
To keep me away I'd always find a way to show you it's true

Nothing can keep me from you
No mountain, no ocean, no river
