WHAT A DAY

Hey look, the snow has settled all around
I hear the sweetness of a choir’s sound
A crazy rush on Christmas Eve
And all the children can’t believe
When the bells start to chime
That Santa will be right on time
What a day, what a day, the magic is here
What a day, what a day, been waiting all year
What a day, what a day
It’s Christmas in that old fashioned way
Hey look, some more surprises on the tree
Turn on a classic movie on TV
The favourite songs you love to sing
With Frank and Elvis, Nat and Bing
There’s a knock at the door
The party’s gonna swing some more
What a day, what a day, the magic is here
What a day, what a day, been waiting all year
What a day, what a day
It’s Christmas in that old fashioned way
And so let us drink to the memories in our hearts
We’ll raise, raise a glass to you, near or far
Wherever you are
With everyone we love so dear
Let’s celebrate this time of year
And the bells start to chime
A very merry Christmas time
What a day, what a day, the magic is here
What a day, what a day, been waiting all year
For stockings on the fireplace and candles all aglow
And we’ll just keep on dancing underneath the mistletoe
What a day, what a day
What a day, what a day
What a day, what a day

LAZY DAYS
(Music by Elio Pace - Words by Elio Pace

Living these lazy, lazy days
Living these lazy, lazy days
Living these lazy, lazy days
These lazy days gonna last for a while
Spent all day screaming and all night on the wire
Got another shot, take my luck
Wash away the pain, stench and muck and misery
You laid on me
And I’ll be happy living these lazy days
Living these lazy, lazy days
Those wasted lies gonna hang over you
Made up my mind
I’m gone and all done crying like a fool
Take a last good look at me
Keep it with those sweet memories of yesterday
You threw away
Because I’ll be happy living these lazy days
I play the blues, I play the blues for company
It’s paradise, yeah that’s just the way it’s gonna be
Give me one good reason, tell me that I’m wrong
For loving life the way that I do, that I do, without you
These lazy days
solo
Got a lonely mug on the tree
Waiting there for no one but me
Free as a bird, hear every word
Because I’ll be happy living

Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
I don't know if you still want me
I don't know if you still care
I don't know if you feel something
Inside your underwear
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
I was calculating
You were the one for me
I thought I was the one for you
But I was out by twenty three
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
You were kissing me
I was kissing you
Thought I'd show you my pride and joy
Turns out you've got one too
And I still want you
Even though you made me blue
You know I still want you
Even though you made me blue

DON’T SPOIL THE SILENCE
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
I saw a light on and I watched from across the street
And through the window I learned about a secret that you keep
Right there I found out and it made my blood run cold
An explanation, who it is and where you go
The voices in my head were screaming out to me
My heart was saying walk away
It’s easier for me to never hear the truth
It’s better that you save it for a rainy day
Don’t spoil the silence baby
Don’t tell me where you’ve been
Don’t spoil the silence
I’m asking you, begging you baby, please don’t
I should’ve called you, let you know I was on my way
I should’ve listened to all the things your doubters had to say
What good is hindsight when you’re in as deep as me?
‘Cause suddenly you took me from a fairy tale
Into a world I’ve never known
I’m working on a way to find some dignity
But I don’t wanna sacrifice a happy home
repeat chorus
And while you’re sleeping, breathing so peacefully
I’m seeing murder inside my mind
It’s like a fever, a fever that’s killing me
Up on the ceiling your demons are laughing at me
And singing songs to your alibis

OH SO TIGHT
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
I need a thing from you ‘cause you know what to do
To keep my motor running, to keep my spirits flying high
‘Cause when I’m feeling low I sit and play my piano
And with you here beside me the rock and roll will never die
Bring your dancing shoes, suede in shades of blue
And please don’t forget a pair for me
The beat just turns me on and with my inhibitions gone
I’ll make a move tonight so I can hold you oh so tight, oh so tight
Go back to ‘55, when music came alive
With Haley’s ‘alligator’ and Presley brewing up a storm
The feeling they inspired, a generation fired
In me the fire’s burning, it started soon as I was born
But that’s then, this is now
So let’s take a vow to make this night be a memory
The beat just turns me on and with my inhibitions gone
I’ll make a move tonight so I can hold you oh so tight, oh so tight
Oh so tight, now I know inside me it’s so right that I feel this way
Hold me tight, let me hear your heartbeat
Let’s begin to play, let me hear you say

EBONY EYES
(Written by Stevie Wonder)
She’s a Miss Beautiful Supreme
A girl that others wish that they could be
If there’s seven wonders of the world
Then I know she’s got to be number one
She’s a girl that can’t be beat
Born and raised on ghetto street
She’s a devastating beauty
A pretty girl with ebony eyes
She’s the sunflower of nature’s seed
A girl that some men only find in their dreams
When she smiles it seems the stars all know
‘Cause one by one they start to light up the sky
repeat chorus
solo
When she starts talking soft and sweet
Like birds of spring her words all seem to sing
With a rhythm that is made of love

SOBER SIRI
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
Someone’s at the door, ten to four
Now who can it be?
Awakened by the sound from the ground
“Southampton, it’s me”
“Siri, how do you do
What do you want at this hour?
Can’t you see it’s late? I’m in bed, I know why
You’re giggling at the things I’m telling you
“Stumbling through my door
When at the club you walked like a queen
Now your jumper’s back to front
And earlier on your tights had a seam
You’ve drunk enough for ten
Then again, who doesn’t?
Sit down in a chair, not the bed, you mustn’t
Stop giggling at the things I’m telling you”
Siri, sober Siri
Listens to Mozart on her bike
Can talk religion if you like
And I keep singing, but my Siri
She doesn’t care for ‘Let It Be’
She says it’s me she comes to see
“I’ll meet you at your place,” Siri said
“On Saturday night”
The writing’s on the wall
“Don’t be late and don’t get uptight”
Sure as hell is hot there she was, there’s Siri
Waiting by the gate on her bike to tell me
“I’m everything you want and sober too”
solo
Siri, sober Siri
Her English accent quite supreme
After a drink to the extreme
But I love Siri, pretty Siri
She doesn’t knock on heaven’s door
Just hammers mine at ten to four
Siri came around to the club
We said our goodbyes
Took one last photograph
Saw a tear well up in her eyes
I promised I would come back again
She told me, “I’ll miss you when you go but you know
I can’t be everything you want and sober too
Can’t be everything you want and sober too

GOT THE BUG BACK
(Music by Elio Pace - Words by
Sophie Langham) Copyright Control
I’ve got some good news
I’ve got to tell you
About a friend of mine who had to go away
He’s got a company four-door
And a house that’s paid for
He’s got a guaranteed exotic holiday
But he’s written to say
He’s always dreaming of the way
It could have been
He’s longing to play
And now he’s ready to admit
He’s well and truly bit
He’s got the bug back
He’s coming right back
Back to the kind of life we used to live before
We’ll be jamming all night
Till the groove is uptight
He’s coming back and gonna stay
This time for sure
And he’s taken his time
But in the end you can’t betray your destiny
Security’s fine
But now he’s itching to be free
Doing what comes naturally
Got the bug back, he’s got the bug back,
Got the bug back
Got the bug back, he’s got the bug back,
Got the bug back
solo
And he’s written to say
He’s always dreaming of the way it could have been
He’s longing to play

THINKIN’
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
Red, yellow, black or white
Moods I could be tonight
Instead I’m blue from head to toe
And though it’s true, I’d give it all another go
People ‘round me everywhere I play ask me
“Why didn’t you bring her tonight?”
Then the pain starts over again
Just when things started goin’ right
They get me thinkin’, thinkin’ about your love
And though I’m copin’, I’m thinkin’ it ain’t enough
Fools playin’ hard to get
Cry over their regret
Just like I do (over, it’s over) over your photograph
It’s gettin’ through (over, it’s over)
And it’s gettin’ very hard to laugh
Made myself hide away the letters
You would write to me night after night
But there’ll be always one I’ll see
Just when things started goin’ right
They get me thinkin’, thinkin’ about your love
And though I’m copin’, I’m thinkin’ it ain’t enough
You know I’m thinkin’, thinkin’ of what to do

TAKE YOU HOME
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
We’ve been out and about
All day since half past two
And driving in my car is not what I’d planned to do
Well I think it’s time I told you babe in black and white
I can’t believe you wanna be alone tonight
So come on baby let me take you home
Back to my apartment
We’ll dance, we’ll have some fun
And when we’re through with dancing
Ooh Wee! That’s when the night’s begun
We can sit and talk the night away, it’s up to you
Or let me show I love you if you want me to
So come on baby let me take you home
Tonight, come back with me
We’ll leave a message for your ma and pa
To say where we’ll be
And if we find it gets late
Then I won’t even have to take you home
Stay the night
Now I’ve spoken my mind
And you know exactly how I feel
Don’t be shy now honey
You know I’ve got a heart for sale
Can’t you see it’s in the stars
The moon he says it’s right
The twinkle in your eye is setting me alight
So come on baby let me take you home
solo
repeat bridge
repeat last verse
I said sugar won’t you let me...
Woah, one more time

KATY LIKES HOUSE
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
I thought it was my lucky day
When she said, “I’ll come out with you”
“Shall I pick you up there right away?”
She said, “No, no, no, I’ve got my hair to do”
She’s doing her hair for me
Well there has to be a reason that I can’t see
Why my ex-girlfriend is doing her hair for me
We went for a little drink down at the pub
Where my buddy sings
We got some tickets for a club in town
Where the boys do their mingling
But as we stepped in through the door
She broke away, took her shoes off
And she strutted on the dance floor
I might as well have left the club there and then
Because Katy likes house,
(Katy likes house), Katy likes house
Katy likes house, (Katy likes house),
Katy likes house
So tell me what this ‘house’ has got
That the King of rock or I ain’t got
‘Cause I like Katy but Katy likes house
Now the room was getting hot
The hour getting late
And Katy still going strong
She was centre of attraction
And I had everybody asking
“Have you known her long?”
“You’re a lucky old so and so”
But there’s one thing about this beauty
That they don’t know

CAN’T GET DOWN
(Music by Elio Pace & Darren Loveday -
Words by Elio Pace & Matt Daniel-Baker)
Copyright Control
Temptation walked through the door
You’d pay to stand in my shoes
With every trick in the book
She stole my right to refuse
No turning back, she got me down on my knees
Got no control, somebody call the police
I need help, I need help
‘Cause I got myself to the mountain top
I got up and I can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down
I’m not a man who would fall
No one could stand in my way
She’s got me begging at night
And pleading mercy all day
I’m riding high
Up where the air is so sweet
And I’m climbing higher
Where it’s harder to breath
I got up, I got up
And I got myself to the mountain top
I got up and I can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down, can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down
I got up, I got up, I got up and I can’t get down
I got up (got up), I got up (got up)
And I can’t get, I can’t get down
I got up (got up), I got up (got up)
And I can’t get, can’t get down
I got up
solo
I’m riding high up where the air is so sweet
And I’m climbing higher where it’s harder to breath
I got up, I got up
Yeah I got myself to the mountain top
I got up and I can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down, can’t get down
I got up and I can’t get down

ADDICTED TO THE PHONE
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
Kicking ‘round the house
I’m agitated ready to explode
Flicking through my database
And memorising all the codes
My self-discipline is poor
Can’t contain myself no more
That’s right
I’m just addicted to the phone
When you’re not home
I’m addicted to the phone
Yes I’m addicted to
To the, to the phone
Sunday crawls around
There’s nothing on the box and rain outside
Killing time ain’t easy
Think I’ll sit and watch the clothes get dry
The best things in life are free
But still I’m billed quarterly
That’s right
repeat chorus
I know you go away
To do the things you’ve got to do but
It fuels my addiction to get through to you
Had the boys around here
They’re always such good company
Still with them I get the urge
To dial your number constantly
And when they walk out the door
Can’t contain myself no more

YOU LOVED ME TOO
(Music & Words by Elio Pace) Copyright Control
I just can’t believe it
You caught me by surprise
Yesterday you held me
And now today your eyes tell me
With all the things I can do
I can’t pretend you loved me too
We had days together
When we laughed and cried
Recalling all the memories
It hurts to think you lied each time
You swore our love would come through
Each time you swore you loved me too
Don’t want the reason why you carried on
Building up my dreams with your song
The song I used to sing to you
And if I had a wish now
One to ease the pain
Then I’d wish to hold you
And kiss you once again
And when you touch me how you would do
I could pretend you loved me too
repeat bridge
And when you touch me how you would do
I could pretend you loved me too
Oh won’t you touch me how you would do

I saw her today at a reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she would meet her connection At her feet was her footloose man
No, you can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want And if you try sometime you find You get what you need
I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was her footloose man
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you might find You get what you need
Oh yeah, hey hey hey, oh...
And I went down to the demonstration To get my fair share of abuse Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse" Sing it to me now...
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes well you just might find You get what you need Oh baby, yeah, yeah!
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescription filled I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy And man, did he look pretty ill We decided that we would have a soda My favorite flavor, cherry red I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead" I said to him
You can't always get what you want, no! You can't always get what you want (tell ya baby) You can't always get what you want (no) But if you try sometimes you just might find You get what you need Oh yes! Woo!
You get what you need--yeah, oh baby! Oh yeah!
I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man She was practiced at the art of deception Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You just might find You get what you need

How does it feel To treat me like you do When you've laid laid your hands upon me And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken I thought I heard your words Tell me how do I feel Tell me now how do I feel
Those who came before me Lived through their vocations From the past until completion They will turn away no more
And I still find it so hard To say what I need to say But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me Just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor I can and shall obey But if it wasn't for your misfortunes I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken And I thought I heard you speak Tell me how do I feel Tell me now how should I feel
Now I stand here waiting

Golden brown texture like sun Lays me down with my mind she runs Throughout the night No need to fight Never a frown with golden brown
Every time just like the last On her ship tied to the mast To distant lands Takes both my hands Never a frown with golden brown
Golden brown finer temptress Through the ages she's heading
West From far away Stays for a day Never a frown with golden brown

Love is a burning thing and it makes a firery ring bound by wild desire I fell in to a ring of fire...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire I went down,down,down and the flames went higher. And it burns,burns,burns the ring of fire the ring of fire.
The taste of love is sweet when hearts like our's meet I fell for you like a child oh, but the fire went wild...

I am the passenger
I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger, I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Get into the car, we'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll see the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window's eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
So let's take a ride and ride and ride
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
