Young dumb fools Here we come Dragging what's left of our dirty thoughts We're feeling young and dumb Because they come Out of nowehre And without a warning Good morning Slide out of bed It's going to take a million cold showers to wash away this mud We've been slinging Hey, everyone gets lonely Even when we're not alone It can be very scary Wearing these earth suits Alien from Mars And Venus came and made this mess It's no fault of ours That we're all unclean She's unclean He's unclean Just like our mothers and our fathers And their mothers and their fathers And their mothers and their fathers They all died and Have solied themselves And it leeches up through the roots To the flowers Where the birds abd the bees pollinate The land with toxic shame Shame begets shame Guilt and shame Toxic shame End this strain
I feel the movement...The underneath that lies...So still on the surface...
Floating in this powered stench...our blind contempt Facing one more time a brand new...Rusted old event
Repeated pages ...Repeated signs Renewed rotten courageous slime
Still we can't face the fact...Still we deny...to be:
Cowards...Selfish...Liars Double- Faced... Mires
We argue things...We build alibis In systematic keen...In pale sorrow of resign...resign
Silence breeds violence x4
Mud We drown ourselves inside this Mud Chorus We numb ourselves inside this Mud
So the slush is growing higher So the dirt is feeding fire So the filth will build our pyre
The tragedy ...Of someone else The common recipe of our social health
The simple art ...Of complication The choking tumor of our hollow conversations
Cowards...Selfish...Liars Double- Faced... Mires
Mud x4
Got myself a crying, talking, sleeping, walking, Living
Doll.
Gotta do my best to please her just ’cos she’s a Living
Doll.
I gotta roving eye and that is why she satisfies my soul
Got my one and only walking, talking, Living Doll.
Take look at her hair, it’s real
You don’t believe what I say just feel.
Gonna lock her up in a trunk,
So no big hunk can steal her away from me.
Got myself a crying, talking, sleeping, walking, Living
Doll.
Gotta do my best to please her just ’cos she’s a Living
Doll.
I gotta roving eye and that is why she satisfies my soul
Got my one and only walking, talking, Living Doll.
Take look at her hair, it’s real
You don’t believe what I say just feel.
Gonna lock her up in a trunk,
So no big hunk can steal her away from me.
Got myself a crying, talking, sleeping, walking, Living
Doll.
Gotta do my best to please her just ’cos she’s a Living
Doll.
I gotta roving eye and that is why she satisfys my soul
I couldn’t wait, she came in late,
She wasn’t there, i didn’t care.
I’m sinking low, where can i go?
Has no one goit a bed to share?
I spent a night on the tiles.
A night on the tiles.
Here comes the day, what can i say,
She really knows that i’ve been cheating.
The night was long, she came on strong,
It’s morning that we’ll soon be greeting.
I spent a night on the tiles.
A night on the tiles.
If only i could lay with you by me,
I’d never leave your side again.
You’d make me feel a man and then...
She left for good, i knew she would.
There’s nothing for me here at all.
Why did she go, i’ll never know,
How come she had to be so cruel.
I spent a night on the tiles.
Some people like to rock
Some people like to roll
But moving and a-grooving gonna satisfy my soul
Let’s have a party.
Whoa, let’s have a party
Send them to the store let’s buy some more
Let’s have a party tonight.
I’ve never kissed a bear

But I shake a chicken in the middle of the room
Let’s have a party.

Ooh, wahh
Ooh, wahh
I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
Or when I’m away form you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But darling most of all I love how you love me.
I love how your heart beats
Whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me w
Without being told to
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But daring most of all I love how you love
I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
Or when I'm away form you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But darling most of all I love how you love me.
I love how you love me
I love how you squeeze me, tease me, please me,
Love how you love me
I love how you love me
I love how you want me
Last night you turned this boy into a man.
And last night, you made me see what's good for me.
Your touch filled a need I never knew.
It's too much.
Just one taste seems such a waste.
It's something only you can give me.
It's something only you can do.
Chorus
I need a hair of the dog that bit me.
I need a touch of your sweet, sweet love.
I need a hair of the dog that bit me.
Give me your love tonight, tonight.
I need a hair of the dog that bit me.
I need a touch of your sweet, sweet love.
I need a hair of the dog that bit me.
Give me your love tonight, tonight.
All right, you've got your bread tight in your hand.
By daylight, your company don't come for free.
Maybe you didn't even know my name,
But baby I'll never tame this burning flame.
It's something only you can give me.
It's something only you can do.
Chorus

From a Jack to a King.
From loneliness to a wedding ring.
I played a Ace and I won a Queen,
An' walked away with your heart.
From a Jack to a King.
With no regrets, I stacked the cards last night.
And Lady Luck played her hand just right:
You made me King of your heart.
For just a little while, I thought that I might lose
again.
Then just in time, I saw the twinkle in your eye.
From a Jack to a King.
From loneliness to a wedding ring.
I played a Ace and I won a Queen,
You made me King of your heart.
For just a little while, I thought that I might lose
again.
Then just in time, I saw the twinkle in your eye.
From a Jack to a King.
From loneliness to a wedding ring.
I played a Ace and I won a Queen,
Imagine this, of the flower power,
My every wish is your command
We will love each other,
Help one another.
Let there be fools who look and laugh and laugh and
laugh.
Chorus
Flower power stays on your mind.
Flower power makes you be kind.
All the time, you love your neighbour to keep with the
trend (love, love, love).
Flower power will grow and grow,
Flower power, let the people know,
There’s peace on earth we’ll love until the end.
Let’s spread the news
Of the hippy’s views
The bell has rung and war must cease.
As the rose will grow and the weed must die.
And long life makes us beautiful.
Chorus
Imagine this, I’ve got flower power
Living in the morning, loving in the evening,
Dance in the midnight sun.
Get up in the morning; better get a feeling,
Gotta get the footwork done.
Dance with your mamma; dance with your papa,
Dance with your only son.
Hanging on your footsteps, living with your upsets,
Burn in the midnight sun.
Ah, come on burn.
Chorus
Tango, tango, where did the man go,
He was gonna take you some.
Tango, tango, where did the man go.
Tango’s got him on the run.
Caught by a fooler, me a little leaver,
Never thought we’d need to run.
I’m no deceiver, tango believer,
Doing what must be done.
Ah, come on burn.
Chorus
I’m no deceiver,
Tango believer,
I’m so young and your so old
This my darling I’ve been told
I don’t care just what they say
’Cos forever I will pray
You and I will be as free as the birds up in the tree
Ooh please stay by me Diana
Thrills I get when you hold me close
Oh my darling you're the most
I love you but do you love me
Oh Diana can’t you see
I love you with all my heart
And I hope we'll never part
Ooh please stay by me Diana
Oh my darling
Oh my lover
Tell me that there is no other
I love you with all my heart
Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart
When you hold me in your loving arms
I can feel you giving all your charms
Hold me darling, hold me tight
Squeeze me darling with all your might
Ooh please stay by me Diana
Oh my darling
Oh my lover
Tell me that there is no other
I love you with all my heart.
Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart
When you hold me in your loving arms
I can feel you giving all your charms
Hold me darling, hold me tight
Squeeze me darling with all your might
Ooh please stay by me Diana
Ooh please, Diana.
Ooh please, Diana.
blue moon, you saw me standing alone
without a dream in my heart
without a love of my own
blue moon, you knew just what i was there for
you heard me saying a prayer for
some one i really could care for
and then you suddenly appeared before me
the only one my arms could ever hold
i heard somebody whisper please adore me
and when i looked the moon had turned to gold
blue moon, now i'm no longer alone
without a dream in my heart
Now a country boy called Shorty
And a city boy named Dan,
Had to prove who could run the fastest
To win Miss Lucy’s hand.
Now Dan had all the money,
And he also had the looks.
But Shorty must have had something boys that can’t be
found in books.
Chorus
“Cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across.”
That’s what Miss Lucy said.
“Cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across.
It’s you I wanna win.”
Now Dan had been in training,
A week before the race.
He’d made up his mind old Shorty,
Would end in second place.
Now Dan with his long legs flying,
Left Shorty far behind.
And Shorty heard him holler out,
“Miss Lucy you’ll soon be mine.”
Chorus
Break
But Shorty wasn’t worried.
He had a smile upon hsi face.
He knew that he was gonna win,
’Cos Lucy had fixed the race.
And just like that old story ’bout the turtle and the
hare,
When Dan crossed over the finishing line,
He found Shorty waiting there.
On the isle of Filla Lilla out Hawaii way
A hula maiden gay strolled by on moonlit bay
There come-a to court her over the water
From a savage Zinga-Zululand
A bolo chief-tain grand sang her this lay.
An@d he sang hula
hawaii hula
Smile on your zing gang a zula.
Moonshine above on your sweet jungle love.
For you my bolo is swinging
For you my love song I'm singing
Come be my hula hula love.
But the chief-tain from the peaceful Filla Lilla land
Would not give him her hand
her love took his stand
Through the rattle of the battle as she heard
His sweet voice calm and true
They fled in his canoe over water blue.
And he sang hulu
hawaii hula
For goodness sake,

Ooh ooh ooh Nobody knew her name
But she turned up just the same
There was a knock on the door
A thump on the floor and the party turned insane
As she called out her name.
And she walked in looking like dynamite
She said now come along
boogaloo through the night
And by the way she's moving well
Dynamite might she not with all
she's got she's got the whole town lighting up dynamit
Nobody quite knowing what to do
Wrong or right
But they all know Dyna is Dynamite
And they're right.
She hadn't been there long
When she told us where she came from
There was a flash in the sky
A light in her eye and her dynamite light burned on
As the music went on and on and on and on . . .
And she walked in looking like dynamite
well you were looking so lovely
under the moon of love

under the moon of love

Oo-oo-oo-oo the secrets that you keep.
I've only got myself to blame
I played a losing game
I lie awake and call your name
Our love is just a picture in a broken frame
It seemed so hard for me to share.
It's even harder now that you're not there.
(Now baby)
I'm losing sleep over the secrets that you keep
(Oh baby)
I'm losing sleep over the secrets that you keep
I lie awake at nights not knowing where you are
You know it don't seem right
That you could be so far away from me.
Oh the secrets that you keep
Since you've been gone our worlds have grown apart.
Now I don't know what's in your head or in your heart.
Those little things you kept so secretly
Well they don't mean much to you now
But they mean so much to me.
If you could give me just one more chance
I'm the fool who broke up our romance
We used to have so many plans
Then I went and let you slip right through my hands.
I'll go searching till I find
A way to get you back and make you mine.
(Until then)
I said a hey you guys
look who's awaitin' outside.
Well she got style you can see it in her feline eyes.
When she starts movin' you sure can tell
When she starts shakin' she's raisin' hell.
I said a hey you guys

Do you remember how she left that floor last Saturday night.
When the cat broke loose well she darn near started the figh
Well she may be flashin' like a neon sign
But you can't touch her 'cause she's mine all mine.
I said a hey you guys look who's awaitin' outside.
And then the cat crept in and crept out again
The cat crept in and crept out again
So I open the door for that high-heeled paw
I said the cat crept in
and crept out again.
I said the cat crept in and we crept out again.
I said a hey you guys
look who's awaitin' outside
. . .
Hey you guys

Well she ain't superstitious but she's hangin' on life No. 9
Well you may not know it but she hides in the light
And she may not know it but this cat can bite
I said a hey you guys
look who's awaitin' outside.
And then the cat crept in and crept out again
. . .
I said a hey you guys
look who's awaitin' outside

I hurt your feelings when I said you're kinda green
Of an age that's in between and you don't know what love mear
You think you love me maybe love has made you blind
'Cos you're full new emotions of a young and foolish kind.
Show me you're a woman
'Cos a woman has the kind of a love I'm a-needin'
Show me you're a woman and I'll show you that I'm a man
Just give me what I'm after
It's a smile and the sound of your grilish laughter
When you are a woman
I'm your man.
Don't try to fool me 'cos I know about your age
And it's written on a page of the memories that I've saved.
I know you're only trying hard to do what's right
But you're young and so you might have to wait for Cupid's bite.

She drew out all her money from the Southern Trust
And put her little boy aboard a greyhound bus.
Leavin’ Louisianne for the golden west,
Down came her tears from her happiness.
Her own little some named Johnney B Goode
Was going to make some motion pictures down in Hollywood.
Chorus
And sing bye bye, bye bye.
Bye bye, bye bye.
Bye bye Johnney, goodebye Johnny B Goode.
She remembered taking money in from gathering crops
And buying Johnny’s guitar from the brokers shop.
As long as he was playing by the railroad side.
Wouldn’t get in trouble, she’d be satisfied.
She never thought that there would come a day like this
When she would have to give her son a goodbye kiss.
Chorus
She finally got the letter she was dreaming of
Cos Johnny wrote and told her he had fell in love.
As soon as he was married he would bring her back
And build a mansion for her by the railroad side.
So everytime she heard the locomotive roar
She be standing,waiting at the kitchen door.
don't beat around the bush c'mon and tell me what you
want from me,
i ain't a man to push but our love's gone yes siree,
crazy thing's that you do, make me sad, make me blue,
you've been two timin' honey, tryin' to make a fool out
of me yeah

and i ain't a man to push no
but you've done wrong by me, don't you know youve been,
beatin' round the bush
and i ain't a man to push no,
but you've done wrong by me, yeah, beating round the
bush
oh, buddy can't you see you took my cutie chickadee,
guess i always knew she'd put a dark cloud over me,
so it's you it ain't me, take a look and you'll see
she's a two timin' woman, she gone and made a fool out
of me yeah

and i ain't a man to push no

beatin' round the bush
and i ain't a man to push no,
but you've done it all wrong by me you've been
Try to imagine
A house that's not a home
Try to imagine
A Christmas all alone
That's where I'll be
Since you left me
My tears could melt the snow
What can I do without you?
I got no place, no place to go
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold, so cold
Without you to hold
This Christmas
Each time I remember
The day you went away
and how I would listen
to the things you had to say
I just break down
as I look around
and the only things I see
are loneliness and emptyness
and an unlit Christmas tree
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold, so cold
Without you to hold
This Christmas
(spoken verse)
Do You remember last year
When You and I were together
We never thought there'd be an end
and I rember looking at you then
and I remember thinking
That Chrismas must have been made for us
Cause Darling this is the time of year
That you really, you really need love
When it means so very, very much
(Spoken over Chorus)
So it'll be so lonely this Christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be so very lonely
Lonely and cold
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this Christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold, so cold
Without you to hold
This Christmas
It'll be cold, so cold
Without you to hold
This Christmas
Merry Chrismas, Darling
One night with you, is what I'm now praying for.
The things that we two could plan, would make my dreams
come true.
Just call my name, I'll be there right by your side,
I want your sweet helping hands,
My love's too strong to hide.
Always lived, very quiet life, yeah.
But I never did no wrong.
But now I now that life without you has been too lonely
too long.
One night with you, is what I'm not prayin' for.
The things that we two could plan, will make my dreams
come true.
Break
Always lived, very quiet life, yeah.
But I never did no wrong.
But now I now that life without you has been too lonely
too long.
One night with you, is what I'm not prayin' for.
The things that we two could plan, will make my dreams
Won’t you get up on your feet, hear that music sounding
sweet,
You’ll kinda like it (kinda like it).
Move your body round the floor, can’t you give it any
more?
Now don’t you fight it (don’t you fight it).
Shake it down.
Shake it down.
Foxy lady over there, bet she knows when and where,
She can make it (she can make it).
When she gets close to me, there’s no place I’d rather
No, I can’t take it (I can’t take it)
Shake it down.
Shake it down.
Shake it.
Shake it.
Everybody’s on the move, tell me what you’ve gotta
loose,
Think about it (think about it).
Let the music turn you on ’cause the night will soon be
gone,
Get down and shout it (down and shout it).
Shake it down.
Shake it down
You can dance-every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye,let him hold you tight
You can smile-every smile for the man
Who held your hand neath the pale moon light
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Oh I know that the music's fine
Like sparklin' wine,go and have your fun
Laugh and sing,but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you oh so much
You can dance,go and carry on
Till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If he asks if you're all alone
Can he walk you home,you must tell him no
'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
Save the last dance for me
'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling,save the last dance for me
Save the last dance for me
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing
Why do the stars glow above
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
Morning, is the time of day,
When you are far away
That I'll miss you.
Feeling, your body next to mine,
Giving that certain smile,
That you want me.
Oh I wonder.
Yes how I wonder.
Why are you leaving
Maybe you'll stay
While I still pray.
Oh, how I pray.
So I wait for evening.
When the sun goes down.
And you're still home.
Oh I wonder.
Yes how I wonder.
Why are you leaving
Maybe you'll stay
While I still pray.
Oh, how I pray.
Oh, how I pray.
The crystal cave, still hides the clouds
Still hides my freedom
The raining maze, invites my soul
Invites my wisdom
The darkest sun, still blinds my heart
Still blinds my vision
The brightest black, still hides the truth
Still hides the vision
Fate made of skull
Breathe through the mud
Save me
The voice of Reason, flight into the night
The voice of Reason, staring at the door
The voice of Reason, flight into the night
Be careful where you lie down, boy
In this bed of roses
Promises of petals, then
You wake up on the other end
Love is such a monster, kid
And power is addictive
Sweet fire and beauty'll turn this city flat
And could you really handle that
I thought I was through with living once
But, lord, the way she lies there breathing
In the deepest hour of the night
Unraveled, opened full and all undone by
And last night we capped the cavern, dear
We said the word and we're goin' down
Honey you pulled out the big blue
And you kissed it all through
Christ, how this life
From mud to miracle
Is just the prettiest little burden
This word is an old rusted tool
to erase disdain
from this golden fool
swallow seeds bourne on the wind
when confusion sets in
when confusion sets in
the river drowns the straggled bride
honor is mist rolling torpedo tide
traded for sticks with a hole in her side
all saviors die
all saviors die
I shed a broken tear
the river is near
the river is near
and true love overcomes fear
redemption is here
redemption is here
the dreamland wolf is stillborn
what by blind tyranny has torn
that heartless snub once was deep love
and the snub once was deep love
blow a kiss, keep on walking
let your honor do the talking
mud is mixed into the water
just forgive the sundog's daughter
blood is mixed into the water
