Book Review: The Day That Never Comes
Kiss – Detroit Rock City – Live In Detroit, USA – 1984
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
You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City
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 down
Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
Get down

Book Review: This Kind of War
Trace Adkins – “I Left Something Turned On At Home” [Live from Austin, TX]
Well boys I hate to leave good company But my baby just called me on the phone And from the sound of her voice, I simply have no choice I left something turned on at home Well I just put a quarter in the jukebox And it ain't halfway through my favorite song But if I don't leave right now my whole place might burn down 'Cause I left something turned on at home It ain't the stove, it ain't the heater She's hotter and a whole lot sweeter And all day long she's been there alone Right now her arms are open, the house is probably smokin' 'Cause I left something turned on at home Hey waitress could you cancel that order But if it's too late I'll take it to go Boys I gotta run 'fore somebody calls 911 'Cause I left something turned on at home It ain't the stove, it ain't the heater She's hotter and a whole lot sweeter And all day long she's been there alone Right now her arms are open, the house is probably smokin' 'Cause I left something turned on at home Right now her arms are open, the house is probably smokin' 'Cause I left something turned on at home Yeah I left something turned on at home
