"First Offense" (1983)

Sunglasses At Night lyrics - Corey Hart

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, So I can
Watch you weave then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, So I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes

While, she's deceiving me,
It cuts my security (has)
she got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades; oh no
Don't masquerade with the guy in shades;
(oh no) (I can't believe it)
You got it made with the guy in shades; oh no

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, So I can
Forget my name while you collect your claim
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, So I can
See the light that's right before my eyes

While she's deceiving me,
she cuts my security (has)
She got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades (oh no)
Don't masquerade with the guy in shades
(oh no) (I can't believe it)
(cuz) You got it made with the guy in shades (oh no)

While she's deceiving me,
she cuts my security (has)
She got control of me
I turn to her and say

Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades (oh no)
Don't masquerade with the guy in shades
(oh no) (I can't believe it)
don't be afraid of the guy in shades
(oh No) (It can't escape you)
(cus) You got it made with the guy in shades (oh no)

I said
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night

I say to ya now
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night

I cry to you
I wear my sunglasses at night
I wear my sunglasses at night

Peruvian Lady lyrics - Corey Hart

I'm sittin' here and I'm wasting time
There jumps Jack, across the power line
Sittin' here and I'm losing time
Lacquered faced, and I can't read the sign
Am I living like a double man?
Re-arranging my master plan

She's your Peruvian lady
And she'll drive you down
Peruvian lady
And she'll bust your crown
Peruvian lady
Watch your mirror smile
Peruvian lady
Is the queen of the guile?
Away, I said take her away

I'm living here like Ghengis Khan
The weak man, fighting the meeker man
I'm sittin' here and I'm asking time
To slow down, so I can save my mind
Am I livin' like a double man?
Re-arranging my master plan

Yes, she's your Peruvian lady
And she'll drive you down
Peruvian lady
And she'll bust your crown
Peruvian lady
Watch your mirror smile
Peruvian lady
Is the queen of the guile?
Away, I said take her away

Yes, she's your Peruvian lady
And she'll drive you down
Peruvian lady
And she'll bust your crown
Peruvian lady
Watch your mirror smile
Peruvian lady
Is the queen of the guile?
Away, please take her away
Peruvian lady
Peruvian lady
She'll bust your crown
Peruvian lady
(Peruvian lady)
Queen of the guile
Yeah
Peruvian lady

Lamp At Midnite lyrics - Corey Hart

You take my heart like a bow and arrow
And shoot it at me I know
I walk the tight rope when it's narrow
To earn my degree I know
Now I'm the last boy at the playground
Who's laughin' at me - I know, I know, I know

And through the corridor I follow you
And the chaos trips my mind
Now I write you short stories
Just to say we're gonna love each other all the way
Well I know you're not the talkin' kind

And if you really want to know me
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite
Said I really want to know you
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite

In a red school house where I see you
In the morning light - I know
Send me sailin' to pick you flowers
From the isle of white - You know, you know, you know

Take my eyes to the pages
Where I draw pictures of your name
Now I speak in dialects
Just to say
(We're gonna love each other all the way)
You're not the kind of girl that plays the game

And if you really want to know me
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite
Said I really want to know you
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite
And to really understand me
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite, nite, nite, nite

And through the corridor I follow you
And the chaos trips my mind
Now I write you short stories
Just to say
(We're gonna love each other all the way)
But I know you're not the talkin' kind, kind
And if you really want to know me
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite
Said I really want to know you
(Oh, you know)
Burn a lamp at midnite
And to really understand me, oh you know
Burn a lamp at midnite
I said I really want to know you, oh you know
Burn a lamp at midnite yeah

(Da, Della) continued until the end of the song.

She Got The Radio lyrics - Corey Hart

Security my friends did say
Could make your love a stronger one
Jealousy came into play
And solid ties dissolved away

So there we were, on that day
Waiting for the other's fall
And it seems so sad
Seems so sad to me
What we had so bad
It occurs to me that

She got the radio
(She got the radio)
And left me here standing so lonely
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
The tragedy is all so moving
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
And I can't carry on that way
I can't carry on that way no more

She looked at me with enraged despair
I could not breathe the hostile air
What became of the love we shared?
Cut dry left standing there
Let it be said for the record though
We performed with style you know

And it seems so sad
Seems so sad to me
What we had so bad
It amuses me that

She got the radio
(She got the radio)
And left me here standing so lonely
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
The tragedy is all so moving
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
Imagine that left me just crying
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
And I can't carry on that way
I can't carry on that way no more
(She got the radio)
Left me here standing so lonely
(She got the radio)
Imagine that left me just crying
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
The tragedy is all so moving

(She got the radio)
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
Imagine that left me just crying
(She got the radio)
She got the radio
She got the radio
(She got the radio)
Oh, I'm suppose to love her

It Ain't Enough lyrics - Corey Hart

I could capture all the love the great romantics had
Sing you a song that ain't half bad
But that ain't enough... that ain't enough for you
And I could run across the world, to bring you the sun
Look in your eyes one on one
But that ain't enough... that ain't enough for you.

And I could carry the weight of your sad times, dear
And give you the strength to face your fears
I know I'll never be afraid to say
I'm here by your side and I'm gonna stay

I could preach about love that one shouldn't forsake
Work on my style of give and take
But that ain't enough... That ain't enough for you
Said ain't enough... it ain't enough for you

And I could carry the weight of your sad times, dear
And give you the strength to face your fears
I know I'll never be afraid to say
I'm here by your side and I'm gonna stay
Just a little closer to you, yeah

I could pour you a drink like I pour out my heart
Smile when I'm sad and act dumb when I'm smart
But that ain't enough... that ain't enough for you
That ain't enough for you

Does She Love You lyrics - Corey Hart

She may know you she may remember your name
She may ask for you when your life is insane
Even smile for you
She may kiss you when your souls' in her heart
She may miss you when your days are apart
But does she love you? Does she love you?
I say
Really, love you, no, no, no, no you cannot say

No, no, no, no
(Does she love you?)
No, no, no, no
(Does she love you? Really, love you?)

She may show you, she may show you her ways
Won't destroy you in a moments rage
Even hold you
Well, she may whisper when you make love at night
Say that these were moments of pure delight
Does she love you? Does she love you?
I say
Really, love you, no, no, no, no, you cannot say

No, no, no, no
(Does she love you?)
No, no, no, no
(Does she love you? Really, love you?)

Tell me why, o why my dear
Tell me why; tell me why dear

Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you love me
Baby, baby, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
(Does she love you?)
Really, love you now?
No, no, no, no, does she love you?
(Really, love you?)
No, no, no, no
She said that you told me you were after my face
(Does she love you? Really, love you?)
Ah na, na, na, na love ya
(Does she love you?)
Really, love ya now
(Does she love you?)
Ah after her
No, no, no, no, (Does she love you?)
Ah baby ah say to you now
(Does she love you? Really, love you?)
(Does she love you? Really, love you

Cheatin' In School lyrics - Corey Hart

Monday morning school day
Eat your breakfast, arrest your books
You're late for school

Sitting in the classroom
Teacher wants young Hemingway
You'll never know

(And you feel so bad)
(And you look so sad)
And don't you know school breeds success
And I keep thinking that I couldn't careless

Oh, yes
(You're cheatin' in school)
Looking at Harold's paper
(Cheatin' in school)
Playing around
(Cheatin' in school)
Running for sudden glory
(Cheatin' in school)
Stop playing around with my head

Now you're in detention
Life suspension of your dreams
Gone away

Sitting there so lonely, (so lonely)
Dreaming of a holiday
That you'll never know

(And you feel so bad)
Ah
(And you look so sad)
And don't you know school breeds success
And I keep thinking that I couldn't careless

(O, yes you're cheatin' in school)
Looking at Harold's paper
(Cheatin' in school)
Playing around
(Cheatin' in school)
Running for sudden glory
(Cheatin' in school)
Stop playing around with my head

(Cheatin' in)
(Cheatin' in school)
Looking at Harold's paper
(Cheatin' in school)
Playing around
(Cheatin' in school)
Autograph Laura's notes
(Cheatin' in school)
Playing around with my head
(Cheatin' in school)
Looking at Harold's paper
(Cheatin' in school)
Playing around with my
(Cheatin' in school)
Running for sudden glory
(Cheatin' in school, yea)

Cheatin' in school, yea
Playing around with my head
Cheatin' in school

School, yea
Oh no, no, no, no
Running for sudden glory
Cheatin' in school
Playing around
Cheatin' in school
Looking at Harold's paper
Cheatin' in school
Stop playing around with my head.

World Is Fire lyrics - Corey Hart

I see you there but I don't know you now
The face you wear is not the same
And there you stand so involved somehow
Igniting some other lover's flame

Do you want me out? Do you want to knock me down?
Well you're doin' fine
And do you want my heart? Do you want the life in me for your security?

The world is fire now it's burnin' inside me
I said, the world is fire now
And I can't see the days in front of me
I can only see the ways you're haunting me
I said, the world is fire now

Feel the bitterness invade us now
Eroding what was never really mine
Don't talk to me about vulnerability
Exploiting what was given so honestly
And I said, do you want me out? Do you want to knock me down?
Well you're doin' fine
And do you want my heart? Do you want the life in me for your security?

O, The world is fire now it's burnin' inside of me
I said, the world is fire now
I can't see the days in front of me
I can only see the ways you're haunting me
I say, the world is fire now

The world is fire now
I said, it's fire now
O, you know the world is fire now
I said, it's fire now-now
I said, it's fire now
I know its fire now
O - fire now
I said, it's fire now-now

Fire now
I said, it's fire now

At The Dance lyrics - Corey Hart

You know the kind of girl spreads mystique
She'll plant a kiss upon your cheek - whoa
She's the one the rich boys like
She guards a slingshot from their sight
Now you may call it lack of competence
Here's my story and my defense
I watched her slowly and I watched her fast
I've got to make the moment last

At the dance, (o-o)
You take a chance, o yeah
At the dance (o-o)
A romance, o yeah

So there were seated face to face
The cat and mouse without the chase yeah
And she lifts her smile at me
I stabbed her with stupidity
So I took out a paper and wrote down my name
And she whispered it's all the same
And so I'm standing here looking dumb but
Ah she took to me, did that girl succumb

At the dance, (o-o)
You take a chance, o yeah
At the dance (o-o)
A romance, o yeah

Went home that night and I climbed the walls, yeah
Left my number for her call
O - but I tell you that they're all the same
Love you the first night - forget your name
O - what a shame

At the dance, (o-o)
You take a chance, o yeah
Tell you at the dance (o-o)
A romance succumb stabs you
At the dance (o-o, o no)
You take a chance, o yeah
Tell you at the dance, (o-o)
Give me at the dance
O - I live at the dance
That girl is driving me hell now
Now everywhere
At the dance, o-o, o no)
You take a chance
I tried at the dance
I tried my waltz, (o-o)
I tried; I tried my waltz
At the dance (o-o)
Yeah

Jenny Fey lyrics - Corey Hart

Jenny Fey lives in the house
Where she's been for all her life
And Jenny Fey has got no friends
She feeds her cat and knits and mends

O, can't you see the lonely crying in the world
O, can't you feel the lonely crying in the world
Yet, the Jenny Fey's go on?

Jenny Fey she wears a frock
Hides her memories with a lock
Jenny Fey remains obscure
Just a tone through the massive blur

(O, can't you see the lonely crying in the world)
O, can't you feel the lonely crying in the world
Yet, the Jenny Fey's go on?

Jenny Fey would smile a song
And now her face is dad and drawn
And Jenny Fey is thirty-five
Jenny Fey was never alive

(O, can't you see the lonely crying in the world)
O, can't you feel the lonely crying in the world
I said yes can't you see the lonely crying in the world
Yet, the Jenny Fey's go on
