'The One That Got Away' opens with the spoken lines 'You look like you'd fit in the trunk of my car', which brings back memories of 'Millie And Billie' from the 'From The Inside' album. There is also a spoken interlude in the middle of the song, which is based on the M.O used by Ted Bundy. Musically, however, it's an average pop-metal song

Alice Cooper - Vocals
Keri Kelli - Guitars
Chuck Garric - Bass
Eric Singer - Drums
Greg Hampton - Keyboards, Additional guitar
Calico Cooper - Spoken Word vocal
Bernard Fowler - Backing vocals

The other credited writer is Jani Lane, who was the vocalist in the band Warrant

09/11 - The One That Got Away (Cooper, Kelli, Lane)



"You look like you'd fit in the trunk of my car
I might let you live, I might go too far
I could wrap you up and take ya home
We'd be all alone

Oh should I let you be the one that got away
Knew it would happen but I didn't know it'd be today
All the voices in my head always sing insane
The one that got away, away, away, today

Keep it down don't talk, I have to think
I could let you walk, I could feed the sink
I could grind you up and disappear
like you were never here

Should I let you be the one that got away
Knew it would happen but I didn't know it'd be today
All the voices in my head always scream insane
The one that got away

Voiceover:
Spider: "Hi, I was just wondering if you could help me out. Um.. my hands are full could you just help me open the door to my van?"
Victim: "oh I'm sorry, you see I just broke my nail and I can't even hold my keys.. I ... gotta go.. dumb psycho"
Spider: "Hmm... must be your lucky day"

I should of let you be the one that got away
Knew it would happen but I didn't know it'd be today
All the voices in my head scream insane
The one that got away
You're the one that got away
Ah you're the one that got away
The one that got away (away, away, away, away, away)
The one that got away (away, away, away, away, away)
The one that got away (away, away, away, away, away)

Voiceover:
Spider: "Hmm, maybe some other time""


'Salvation' is a power-ballad, with the main instrument being a piano. The song reminds me of something from the back catalogue, but I'm damned if I can place it! Musically...yeah, it's fun!

Alice Cooper - Vocals
Danny Saber - Guitars, String Arrangement, Bass, Keyboards
Bernard Fowler - Backing vocals
David Pinbauer - Drums

The additional credited writer of the song is Bernard Fowler, who has worked extensively with The Rolling Stones

10/11 - Salvation (Cooper, Saber, Hampton, Fowler)



"What if I'm wrong,
I've been deceived all along
What if I'm wrong

What have I done
Did I waste a life just for fun
What have I done

What did I do
I did what voices told me to
What did I do

Where will I go
Will I sink through fire down below
Where will I go

Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation for eternity
Any chance of salvation
Someone died for me
Washed in blood he cared enough to pity me

Why do I care
What's wrong with me, my hate is gone
Why do I care

When did I change
What's different now, it's very strange
When did I change

Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation for eternity
Any chance of salvation
Someone died for me
Washed in blood he cared enough to pity me

In my heart
In my soul
Something's new, that's very old
Like a pain that's finally gone
I feel my heavy burden lifted

Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation

Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation for eternity
Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation for eternity
Any chance of salvation
Any chance for me
Any chance of salvation for eternity
Sal-va-tion
Sal-va-tion
Sal-va-tion
Sal-va-tion"
