don't you come back and play?
Come back and play
Come back and play
We got all night all day, everybody's gone away

Why don't you come back and play?
Come back and play
Come back and play
Come back and play

Go, get'em boy, let's party!

We had a food fight in somebody's face
We were up all night singing and giving a chase
But in the cold light of day next morning
Everybody was hungover

Come back and play
Come back and play
We got all night, all day
Everybody's gone away

Why don't you come back and play?
Come back and play
We got all night, we got all day
We got all night to play

Come back
Come back
Come back
Come back

Come back and play

Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

The party is over



Khashoggi's ship

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

Who said that my party was all over?
I'm in pretty good shape
The best years of my life are like a super nova
Perpetual craze

I said that everybody drank my wine, you get my drift
And then we took a holiday on Khashoggi's ship
Well, we really had a good good time, they was all so sexy
We was bad, we was blitzed, all in all it was a pretty good trip

This big bad sucker with a fist as big as your head
Wanted to get me, I said: "Go away"
I said: "Kiss my ass, honey", he pulled out a gun
Wanted to arrest me, I said: "Uh uh, babe"

Now listen - no one stops my party
No one stops my party
No one, no one
No one stops my party

Just like I said we were phased
We was pissed, just having a total eclipse
This one's on me so let us do it just right
This here one party don't get started 'till midnight

Everybody party to the left
Party to the right
Everyone in the middle doing all up
All right, all right, doing all right

Left - right
No one stops my



The miracle

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

Every drop of rain that falls
In Sahara desert says it all - it's a miracle
All god's creations, great and small
The golden gate and the Taj Mahal - that's a miracle

Test tube babies being born
Mothers, fathers, dead and gone - it's a miracle

We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
The wonders of this world go on
The hanging gardens of Babylon

Captain Cook and Cain and Able
Jimi Hendrix to the tower of Babel

It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle

The one thing we're all waiting for
Is peace on earth, an end to war
It's a miracle we need - the miracle
The miracle we're all waiting for today

If every leaf on every tree
Could tell a story that would be a miracle
If every child on every street
Had clothes to wear and food to eat - that's a miracle

If all god's people could be free
To live in perfect harmony - it's a miracle

We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
Open hearts and surgery
Sunday mornings with a cup of tea

Super powers always fighting
But Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling

It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle

The wonders of this world go on

It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle

The one thing we're all waiting for
Is peace on earth and an end to war
It's a miracle we need
The miracle, the miracle

Peace on earth and end to war today

That time will come, one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
That time will come, one day you'll see
When we can all be friends

That time will come, one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
That time will come, one day you'll see
When we can all be friends



I want it all

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

Adventure seeker on an empty street
Just an alley creeper, light on his feet
Young fighter screaming with no time for doubt
With the pain and anger can't see a way out

It ain't much I'm asking, I heard him say
Gotta find me a future, move out of my way

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

Listen all you people - come gather 'round
I gotta get me a game plan, gotta shake you to the ground
Just give me what I know is mine
People, do you hear me? Just give me the sign

It ain't much I'm asking if you want the truth
Here's to the future, for the dreams of youth

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

I'm a man with a one track mind
So much to do in one life time
Not a man for compromise
And where's and why's and living lies

So I'm living it all
Yes, I'm living it all
And I'm giving it all
And I'm giving it all

I want it all!

It ain't much I'm asking if you want the truth
Here's to the future, hear the cry of youth

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
And I want it now

I want it
I want it
I want it now



The invisible man

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me

When you hear a sound that you just can't place
Feel something move that you just can't trace
When something sits on the end of your bed
Don't turn around when you hear me tread

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you

Now I'm in your room and I'm in your bed
And I'm in your life and I'm in your head
Like the CIA or the FBI
You'll never get close, never take me alive

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you

Hah, hah, hah, hello!
Hah, hah, hah, ok!
Hah, hah, hah, hello!
Hello, hello, hello!

Never had a real good friend, not a boy or a girl
No one knows what I've been through, let my flag unfurl
So make my mark from the edge of the world
From the edge of the world, from the edge of the world

Now I'm on your track and I'm in your mind
And I'm on your back but don't look behind
I'm your meanest thought, I'm your darkest fear
But I'll never get caught, you can't shake me, shake me, dear

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me

I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you



Breakthru

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

When love breaks up
When the dawn light wakes up
A new life is born
Somehow I have to make this final breakthru, now!

I wake up, feel just fine
Your face fills my mind
I get religion quick
'Cause you're looking divine

Honey, you're touching something, you're touchin' me
I'm under your thumb, under your spell, can't you see?

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

Breakthru these barriers of pain
Breakthru to the sunshine from the rain
Make my feelings known towards you
Turn my heart inside and out for you now

Somehow I have to make this final breakthru, now!

Your smile speaks books to me
I break up with each
And every one of your looks at me
Honey, you're starting something deep inside of me

Honey, you're sparking something, this fire in me
I'm outta control, I wanna rush headlong into this ecstasy

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

Breakthru
Breakthru

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

Breakthru



Rain must fall

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

I can see it in your stars, life is so exciting
Acting so bizarre, your world is so inviting
Playing really cool
And looking so mysterious, honey

Your every day is full of sunshine
But into every life a little rain must fall

Anyone who imagines, they can blind you with science
Bully you all over with property and finance
But you have position to call the shots
And name the price, honey

You found success and recognition
But into every life a little rain must fall
You lead a fairy tale existence
But into every life a little rain must fall

Others seem to think you are over dramatising
Problems at work so it's hardly surprising
There's little you can do
To alter their opinions, honey

You want a clean reputation
But now you're facing complications
'Cause into every life a little rain must fall



Scandal

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

Scandal - now you've left me, all the world's gonna know
Scandal - they're gonna turn our lives into a freak show
They'll see the heartache, they'll see our love break
They'll hear me pleading, we'll say: "For god's sake!"

Over and over and over again

Scandal - now you've left me, there's no healing the wounds
Scandal - and all the world can make us out to be fools
Here come the bad news, open the floodgates
They'll leave us bleeding, we say: "You cheapskates"

Over and over and over again

So let them know when they stare
It's just a private affair
They'll have us hung in the air
And tell me - what do they care?

It's only a life to be twisted and broken

They'll see the heartache
They'll see our love break
They'll hear me pleading
I'll say: "For god's sake!"

Over and over and over and over again

Scandal
Scandal
Scandal
Scandal - yes, you're breaking my heart again
Scandal

Today the headlines, tomorrow hard times
And no one ever really knows the truth from the lies
And in the end the story deeper must hide
Deeper and deeper and deeper inside

Scandal
Scandal
Scandal
Scandal



My baby does me

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

My baby, baby does
My baby does me good
My baby does, my baby does me
My baby does me good

My lady understands
Understands me right
She understands me, she understands me
Understands me right

My baby cares, she really cares
She knows what's really right for me

Does me good then she hurts me so
She winds me up then lets me go
Turns me on and then tells me no
She's just a pussy cat

My baby loves me
My baby loves me
My baby cuffs me

One day she tells me that she cares
Another day she tells me she don't love me
She really, really does me



Was it all worth it

(Mercury/May/Deacon/Taylor)

What is there left for me to do in this life?
Did I achieve what I had set in my sights?
Am I a happy man or is this sinking sand?
Was it all worth it? Was it all worth it?

Now hear my story
Let me tell you about it

We bought a drum kit, blew my own trumpet
Played the circuit, thought we were perfect

Was it all worth it?
Giving all my heart and soul and staying up all night
Was it all worth it?
Living breathing rock 'n' roll, a god forsaken life

Was it all worth it?
Was it all worth it all these years?

Put down our money without counting the cost
It didn't matter if we won if we lost
Yes, we were vicious, yes, we could kill
Yes, we were hungry, yes, we were brill

We served a purpose like a bloody circus
We were so dandy, we love you madly

Was it all worth it?
Living breathing rock 'n' roll, this god forsaken life

Was it all worth it?
Was it all worth it when the hurly burly's done?

We went to Bali, saw god and Dali
So mystic, surrealistic

Was it all worth it?
Giving all my heart and soul, staying up all night
Was it all worth it?
Living breathing rock 'n' roll, this never ending fight

Was it all worth it?
Was it all worth it?

Yes, it was a worthwhile experience
It was worth it
