You don't want go to school You don't want to go to work You just wanna stay home all day And laze around Yes you do You stay out all night long Chasing with the boys round town Say you’re having fun going from different arms Travelling from town to town Soon you’ll learn that ain't the way girl When the night breeze has grabbed you You’re on the street You’re on the street Soon you’ll find your man to take good care of you I will buy you clothes I’ll get you a pad up town You got to work for me in the night breeze Soon you’ll learn that ain't the way girl When the night breeze has grabbed you You’re on the street You’re on the street But it’s the sweet and simple things you do You got me caught up in a web of you You fascinate me with those sparkling eyes But the diamond is so uncut tonight Tonight Tonight Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Soon you’ll learn that ain't the way girl When the night breeze has grabbed you

Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas Ain't taking no lip From no one Too many times I’ve listened to you But this time I’m not gonna listen Ain't taking no cues, no pointers from you But this time I'm leaving And this time I'm in my car I’ve got the engine running And I'm going, going Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas I’ve taken All I can Why can't you see you’re ruining you and me You used to be such a fun lady Come on and tell me what’s happened to you But this time I'm leaving And this time I'm in my car I’ve got the engine running And I'm going, going Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas But this time I'm leaving And this time I'm in my car I’ve got the engine running And I am going, going Got my foot hard on the gas Got my foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas Foot hard on the gas

Rock’s been bleeding me dry I just can't leave it alone So my heart is so cold Just got to hear that beat again get it pumping Blood running hot Ain't got no home Nowhere to call my own Like an alley cat I sleep out in the cold Bad Blood and it's running in my veins Got this bad blood and the pain is there again Loving loving The loving you give to me Maybe you satisfy me girl Hope you’re satisfied with me My bleeding heart it bleeds From mercy I want Bad Blood and it’s running in my veins Got this bad blood and the pain is there again Bad Blood and its running in my veins Got this bad blood and the pain is there again Got this bad blood Got this bad blood

Here you are Feeling blue again Looking for a way out Here he is By your side again He will be your friend If you listen To his shallow voice It’s like a whisper in the wind He's always near and never too far For you to speak to him He's the devil And he's always always ready to collect He's the devil And he's always always ready to collect He's watching and waiting for you to tumble If you’re weak in mind And there is doubt He’s there to guide you He is always willing to be your friend If you listen to his shallow voice It’s like a whisper in the wind He's the devil And he's always near and ready to collect He's the devil And he’s always near and ready to collect He's the devil And he's always ready to collect He's the devil And he’s always ready to collect He’s watching and waiting for you to tumble If you’re weak in mind And there’s doubt He’s there to get you He's always willing To be your friend He's the devil, devil And he's always always ready to collect He’s the devil, devil And he's always always ready to collect

Chasing Going Nowhere 03:34

Taking the time To say how I feel To dream the dream Is never to be Those long evenings As day gives way to night Watching the stars One by one light up the sky What a fool I’ve been to fall for you Chasing rainbows I’m far away Running in the sun And feeling the breeze And going nowhere Another day turns Here I am again Sitting in the fields Reminiscing again I see you here Doing what I know Running and playing With me in the breeze What a fool I’ve been to fall for you Chasing rainbows I’m far away Running in the sun And feeling the breeze Going nowhere

about

Bad Blood was scheduled to be the follow up to the debut album On My Knees but never got released due to Bloodshot Eyes splitting up for a second time. The album was eventually shelved indefinitely. Thanks to German NWOBHM label High Roller Records, Bad Blood has now finally been issued. The two bonus tracks at the end of the album are Bad News Blues and Banging Like A Shit House Door. These two songs were the A and B sides of the self released single by Shader on their own Piston Broke Label.
