Def Leppard


A little something about Def Leppard
Although they got together in the late '70s, and released several successful albums in the U.K., it wasn't until Def Leppard's 1981 album, High 'N' Dry that the band found their place on the rock-n-roll map. High 'N' Dry reached No. 38 on the U.S. charts and set the stage for their ultra-successful 1983 album, Pyromania. Then disaster struck -- drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in a 1984 New Year's Eve car crash. But after Allen perfected a drum set which enabled him to play with one arm, they eventually released Hysteria, which sold over 15 million copies worldwide fueled by the popularity of the singles "Armageddon It" and "Love Bites." Riding a wave of success, the band embarked on a 14-month world tour which ended in 1988. But just as they were starting to find their groove again, guitarist Steve Clark died of a drug overdose in 1991. He was replaced by Vivian Campbell, who joined Def Leppard on 1992's Adrenalize, which landed at No. 1 in both the U.S. and U.K. upon release

Photograph

Huh!
I'm outta luck, outta love
Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I wanna touch

I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done

(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough

I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child

Oh
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done

I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
You've gone straight to my head

Oh!
Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh!
Look what you've done
I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph

I wanna touch you

Oh!
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
Your photograph
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
It's time you brought one to me
(Photograph)
I wanna know
(Photograph)
I wanna know
(Photograph)
Oh I wanna know
(Photograph)
I wanna touch
(Photograph)
(Photograph)


Animal

A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame
I burn for you

I need your touch don't need your love
Oh whoa
And I want
And I need
And I lust
Animal
And I want
And I need
And I lust
Animal
I cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain
Yeah
Like the restless rust
I never sleep
I gotta feel it in my blood
Oh whoa
I need your touch don't need your love
Oh whoa
And I want
And I need
And I lust
Animal

And I need
And I lust
Animal

Gonna take your love 'n' run
