CNN 2015-02-23George Segal (born February 13, 1934) is an American film, stage and television actor.
George Segal, Jr. was born to a Jewish family in 1934 Great Neck, Long Island, New York, the son of Fannie Blanche (née Bodkin) and George Segal, Sr. He was educated at George School, a private Quaker preparatory boarding school near Newtown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. He also attended Haverford College. He graduated in 1955 from Columbia University.
Segal has played both drama and comedy, although he is more often seen in the latter. Originally a stage actor and musician, Segal appeared in several minor films in the early 1960s in addition to the well-known 1962 movie The Longest Day. He was signed to a Columbia Pictures contract in 1961, making his film debut in The Young Doctors and appearing in The Naked City produced for television by Columbia's Screen Gems.
He started attracting roles in 1965 as an egocentric painter in Ship of Fools, as a P.O.W. in King Rat in a role originally meant for Frank Sinatra, and as an Algerian paratrooper captured at Dien Bien Phu, who leaves the French army to become a leader of the FLN in Lost Command. He was loaned to Warner Bros for Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (as Nick, for which he was nominated for an Oscar), later appearing as a British secret service agent in The Quiller Memorandum, a Cagneyesque gangster in The St. Valentine's Day Massacre, perplexed police detective Mo Brummel in No Way to Treat a Lady, a bookworm in The Owl and the Pussycat, a war-weary platoon commander in The Bridge at Remagen, a man laying waste to his marriage in Loving, and a hairdresser turned junkie in Born to Win. In 1967, Segal released his debut LP titled The Yama Yama Man; the title track is a ragtime version of "The Yama Yama Man" (1908) with horns and banjos. Segal apparently released the album due to his popularity playing banjo on Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show".
John William "Johnny" Carson (October 23, 1925 – January 23, 2005) was an American television host and comedian, known for thirty years as host of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962–1992). Carson received six Emmy Awards, the Governor Award, and a 1985 Peabody Award. He was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame in 1987. Johnny Carson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1992 and received a Kennedy Center Honor in 1993.
Although his show was already successful by the end of the 1960s, during the 1970s Carson became an American icon and remained so until his retirement in 1992. He adopted a casual, conversational approach with extensive interaction with guests, an approach pioneered by Arthur Godfrey and previous Tonight Show hosts Steve Allen and Jack Paar. Late night hosts David Letterman, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, Craig Ferguson, and Jimmy Fallon have all cited Carson's influence on their late-night talk shows, which resemble his in format and tone.
Carson was born in Corning, Iowa, in the year 1925, to Homer Lloyd "Kit" Carson, a power company manager, and Ruth Hook Carson, who was of Irish descent. He grew up in the nearby towns of Avoca, Clarinda, and Red Oak in southwest Iowa before moving to Norfolk, Nebraska, at the age of eight. At the age of twelve, Carson found a book on magic at a friend's house and immediately purchased a mail-order magician's kit. He debuted as "The Great Carsoni" at fourteen and was paid $3; many other performances at local picnics and country fairs followed.
James Francis Cagney, Jr. (July 17, 1899 – March 30, 1986) was an American actor, first on stage, then in film, where he had his greatest impact. Although he won acclaim and major awards for a wide variety of performances, he is best remembered for playing tough guys. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked him eighth among its 50 Greatest American Screen Legends.
In his first professional acting performance, he danced dressed as a woman in the chorus line of the 1919 revue Every Sailor. He spent several years in vaudeville as a hoofer and comedian, until he got his first major acting part in 1925. He secured several other roles, receiving good notices, before landing the lead in the 1929 play Penny Arcade. After rave reviews, Warner Bros. signed him for an initial $500-a-week, three-week contract to reprise his role; this was quickly extended to a seven-year contract.
Don't bring me down

in a place you will be all mine

oh, I'm losing you baby
chorus
but it's never gonna be that easy
you want a lover, I am just a friend
(George Michael/Jon Douglas)
So every day I see you in some other face
They crack a smile, talk a while
Try to take your place
My memory serves me far too well
I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself
You’re a fool boy
Why don’t you go down
Find somebody
Find somebody else
My memory serves me far too well
It’s not as though we just broke up
It’s not as though it was yesterday
But something I just can’t explain
Something in me needs this pain
I know I’ll never see your face again
C’mon now
I’ve got to be strong now
Now everybody’s talking about this new decade
Like you say the magic numbers
Then just say goodbye to
The stupid mistakes you made
Oh my memory serves me far too well
Don’t you know that
The years will come and go
Some of us will change our lives
Some of us still have nothing to show
Nothing baby
But memories
And if these wounds
They are self inflicted
I don’t really know
How my poor heart could have protected me
But if I have to carry this pain
If you will not share the blame
I deserve to see your face again
C’mon now
You don’t have to be so strong now
Come back
Come back
Come back to me darling
I will make it worth your while
Come on back to your baby
tonight
do we have to fight again
tonight?
I just want to go to sleep
turn out the light
but you want to carry grudges
oh, nine times out of ten
oh, I see the storm approaching
long before the rain starts falling
tonight
does it have to be the old thing
tonight?
oh, it's late, too late
to chase the rainbow that you're after
I'd like to find a compromise
oh, and place it in your hands
my eyes are blind, my ears can't hear
oh, and I cannot find the time
tonight
just let the curtains close in silence
tonight
why not approach with less defiance
the man who'd love to see you smile
who'd love to see you smile
tonight
tonight
just let the curtains close in silence
tonight
why not approach with less defiance
the man who'd love to see your smile
the man who'd love to see your smile
the man who'd love to see your smile
tonight
No more lying friends
Wanting tragic ends
Though they do pretend
They won't go when I go
All those bleeding hearts
With sorrows to impart
Were right here from the start
And they won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Gone from painful cries
Away from saddened eyes
Along with him I'll bide
Because they won't go when I go
Big men feeling small
Weak ones standing tall
I will watch them fall
They won't go when I go
And I'll go where I've longed
To go so long
Away from tears
Unclean minds mislead the pure
The innocent will leave for sure
For them there is a resting place
People sinning just for fun
They will never see the sun
For they can never show their faces
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Who will take more than he will give
He ain't hardly gonna give
The greed of man will be
Far away from me
And my soul will be free
They won't go when I go
Since my soul conceived
All that I believe
The kingdom I will see
'Cause they won't go when I go
When I go
Where I'll go
No one can keep me
From my destiny
Spin the wheel
Five o'clock in the morning
You ain't home
I can't help thinking that's strange
Baby i just want you to know
I won't go through it again
Yes, those clouds are closing in
And i will not accept this as a part of my life
I will not live in fear
Of what may be
And the lessons i have learned...
I would rather be alone than watch you
Spinning that wheel for me
You've got a thing about danger
Ain't you getting what you want from me
You've got a thing about strangers
Baby that's what we used to be
You've got a thing about danger baby
I guess the hungry just can't see
One of these days
You're gonna bring some home to me
Six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking that's strange
It seems that everybody take some home to me
Six o'clock in the morning you ain't phoned
I can't help thinking that's strange
It seems that everybody takes
Their chances
These days
Oh yeah, we're standing in the rain
And i will not accept this as a part of my life etc....
How can you love me
When you are playing with my life
You say give me time and i'll do better i swear
Give me time and i'll lead you back to despair
(George Michael)
[Instrumental]
Papa Was A Rollin' Stone
It was the third of September
That day I'll always remember, yes I will
'Cause that was the day that my daddy died
Never had a chance to see him, no
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said
Chorus
Papa was a rollin' stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone (repeat)
Hey, Mama, is it true what they say
That Papa never worked a day in his life
Some bad talk going around sayin'
Papa had there outside children
And another wife
That ain't right
Heard some talk about Papa and his storefront
Preachin'
Talkin' about saving souls and all the time
Leaching
And dealing in dirt
Stealin' in the name of the Lord
But Mama she just said
Chorus
Say, I heard my papa was a jack of all trades
Is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow or steal just
To pay his bills.
Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin'
Spent most of his time chansin' women and drinkin'
But Mother, I'm depending on you to tell me the
Truth
But my mama she just said
Chorus(2x)
Good morn or evening friends
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on to every-body
What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter to tears and pain
It's that
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Send yours in right away
Hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far
The force of evil plans
To make you its possession
And it will if we let it
Destroy ev-er-y-body
We all must take
Precautionary measures
If love and please you treasure
Then you'll hear me when I say
Oh that
Love's in need of love today, love's in need of love today

Hate's, hate's, hate's goin' round
Bring it down a little, love is very peaceful
So bring it down a little
Well, please stop it
Uh L-O-V-E love Oh,
Love's in need of love today
Don't delay
Right away
Just give the world LOVE.
Close friend of mine as a child fell into a slumber
No sign of life since '75
Then one day he just, what do you know
I guess God just called his number
He called me up he called me up and said
'I've been awake about a week
I'm thinking about asking the doctor
If he could put me back to sleep'
Then he laughed and said
'Hey all the girls they look the same'
Don't they know just what their mothers
Paid in blood, and tears to change
But the words that made me cry
The thing he softly said
It stayed with me, it keeps messing with my head
He said, 'If Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?'
Youth, beautiful youth
We walked through the walls until we found the truth
And said 'Change it, it's ugly just change it'
Everyone we used to know
Must have given up, so long ago
You can see it, it's written on their faces
And the inside of their clothes
But the words that made me cry
'Cos I knew just what they meant
He turned to me and said
'Hey boy, if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come John & Elvis are dead?'
'Tell me if Jesus Christ is alive and well
Then how come Marvin & Elvis are dead?'
I said 'If Jesus Christ is going to save us from ourselves
How come peace, love and Elvis are dead?'
If you were my woman
And I was your man
There would be no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength to walk out that door
My love would overrule my sense I would call you back for more
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
And I was your man, Yeah!
He tears you down darlin'
Says your nothing at all
But I'll be there for darlin'
When he lets fall
Your like a diamond
But he treats you like glass
Yet you beg him to love you
With me you don't ask
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no stop lovin' you
Whoa! Yeah!
My darlin'
Life is so crazy
And love is so unkind
Because he came first, darlin'
Will he make up your mind
Your a part of me
And you don't even to know it
I'm what you need
But I'm too afraid to show it
If you were my woman
Here's what I'd do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no
Whoa! Oh!
My darlin' If you were my woman
Sweet lovin' woman
I said
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
I said
If you were my woman
If you were my woman
Here's what I would do, Oh
I'd never, no, no, no stop lovin' you
Whoa! Yeah!
Never, never, no
Hmm...
Oh so much love
That you’ve never seen
Let’s make love
Put your trust in me
Don’t you listen to what they told you
Because I love you
Let me hold you
I’m not your brother
I’m not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I’m a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you’ve been so unkind, oh
Come on
I want your sex
Come on, I want your sex
That’s right, all night
Oh, I want your sex
I want your ... sex
Sexy baby’s

Sexy baby’s
(Sexy baby’s)
Sexy body
(Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
(Keeps me guessing)
With a promise
I know we can come togheter
But the question is
Will we ever ever?
Together - you and me
Se você disser que eu desafino amor
Saiba que isso em mim provoca imensa dor
Só privilegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo apenas o que Deus me deu
E se você insiste em classificar
Com o meu comportamento de anti-musical
Não lhes vou mentir até vou comentar
Que isso é bossa-nova
Que isso é muito natural
Que voce não sabe nem sequer pressente
É que os desafinados também tem um coração
Fotografei você na minha role-flix
Revelou-se a sua enorme ingratidão
Só não poderá falar assim do meu amor
Que é bem maior que você pode encontrar
Você passou a música e esqueceu o principal
Que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
No peito dos desafinados também bate um coração
When I ask those questions, baby
It's just to get them out of my head
Cause they turn around inside it
Then they spill off to our bed
Do I really want to know?
Do I really want to know your life?
Would I have to let you go?
Could I listen to my heart if my head stops to think twice?
When I've been a good boy
When I've been a bad boy
I have too much fun
But baby so did everyone
I've never been an angel
But things are gonna change, change, change
So do you really want to know?
Do you really want to know my life?
Would you have to let me go?
Could you listen to your heart if your head stopped to think twice?
If you knew every woman
And I knew every man
We never would have made it past holding hands
I guess the saying is no longer true
That what you don't know can hurt you
I guess there is just no question, baby
You know what you're doing in bed
If I want your touch
Should I know too much
Some things are better left unsaid
So do I really want to know?
Do I really want to know your life?
Would I have to let you go?
Could I listen to my heart if my head starts to think twice?
(Tell me baby, Cause one thing to guess is one thing to know,
and don't you think that maybe baby I've got secrets of my own?)
If I knew every woman
And you knew every man
We never would have made it past holding hands
I used to say it but it's no longer true
Cause what you don't know can really hurt you (Can kill you baby)
And even as we speak
The world is full of lovers
Mama's gone and got herself a new man
It's a shame,
He's the same
Mama please please, stop pretending
This time, it won't end in tears
I find myself, with a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don't wanna be lonely
And nobody's keeping score
I don't say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can't you feel me
Holding my breath as they knock, knock, knock on our door
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels,
The same, the same....
Johnny's gone and got himself a new man
He gets laid, every day
Johnny please please, stop pretending
This time, may just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won't find 'daddy'
When you're popping those pills
Oh Johnny, is the danger just part of the thrill?
And nobody's keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said 'Johnny can't you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knock, knock,
knock on your door'
You're just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, the same, the same
Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Pretty girl, little girl, what were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and child, at the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see...
Forgive me
To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels, wheels, wheels
Mama don't you let him stay
From bastard to loser, hurt you, used you in every way,
Mama, don't you let him stay, please
Don't let him stay
I said Jesus, Mary, and the Saints above,
Won't you show him love?
Every day it seems my smile's a little harder
And every day, I seem to laugh a little less
Living this way, it seems my sky's a little darker
You went away and left me lonely in success
(Can't you see I'm falling apart) (Repeat)
Can't you see what's happenin' to me
Take this hand and show my fingers where my heart is
Understand, you may just save me from despair
Watch this man, you'll see he can't stop what he has started
Take this hand, you'll see right now there's no-one there
(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
You laugh at me as I fall
(Can't you see I'm falling apart)
Just tell me, tell me, give me one good reason
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But instead I watch you die
Armed with love, I could save my heart
But on my own I just can't make it
I'm too weak to fight, so take it
Armed with love, I could save my heart
Tell me why an I so blue.
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now (oh yeah)
Show me how
Decide what you want from me
Tell me maybe I
Could be there for you
Oooh
However do you want me
However do you need me
However do you want me
However do you need me
Back to life
Back to the present time
Back from a fantasy, yeah
Tell me now
Take the initiative
I'll leave it in your hands
Until you're ready
Heeey
However do you want me
However do you need me
However do you want me
However do you need me
I live at the top of the block (top of the block)
There's no more room (no more room, no no no no)
For trouble or fuss
Need a change
A positive change
(Loook . . .) it's me writing on the wall
However do you want me
However do you need me
Back to life
Back to the day we had
Let's play this foolish game
Hear me out
Don't let me waste away
Make up your mind so
I know where I stand
However do you want me
However do you need me
Here comes one for the ladies
For the ones who love me
To think I thought I could be some kind of family man
I told myself I was straight
But I shouldn't have worried
‘Cos my Maker had a better plan for me
And I'm dancing with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
(Yes I'm dancin' with the freaks now)
We're havin', we're havin' too much fun for them
Look who's talking Guilty feet now…
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not living my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
Yes, I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time
For the haters
And all the time that I wasted
How careless of me
Too young and stupid to see
I put my life in their hands
(Gonna look for Cupid, man)
Oh, and I know that they want me to hate them
There's no hurry
I'll just have to be the bigger man
Dancin' with the freaks now
I'm havin', I'm havin' so much fun
What you sow is what you reap now
I'll do my dance with everyone
I've been getting too much Sun
If I turn the other cheek now
Would that be, would that be too much fun for them?
Look who's talking
Guilty feet now…
Well let me tell you people
It's an easier affair
Not livin' my life with other people on my mind
No, got nothing to hide from anyone
‘Cos I'm walking on new air
Just living my life
Better believe I'm gonna get what's mine
See I don't have the time for the haters
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found
For my life
Take it to the streets
There are stories you can keep
They're just passing you by
Don't let them tell you who you are is not enough
Don't let them tell you that it's wrong
Or that you won't find love
Don't let them use my life to put your future down
Don't let them tell you that happiness can't be found
I was mixed up when you came to me
Too broke to fix
Said 'daddy get you gone, I'm missing my baby'
Still missing my baby...
I was stitched up by the hands of fate
Said how you gonna make it on your own
If luck is a lady?
Maybe luck is a lady
I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I was not open to your suggestions
I had so many questions
That you just kissed away
Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my savior would come
I think it's amazing
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
You tried to save me from myself
Said 'Darling ,kiss as many as you want!
My love's still available
And I know you're insatiable'
We're like victims of the same disease
Look at your Big Bad Daddy, and your mom
And your mom ....was always acting crazy
I was going down for the third time
My heart was broken, I thought that loving you
was out of the question
Then I saw my reflection
Saying please don't let this go
Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise
The day you walked in and changed my life
I think it's amazing,
The way that love can set you free
So now I walk in the midday sun
I never thought that my saviour would come
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
Celebrate the love of the one you're with
Celebrate, this life with you baby
I think you should celebrate yeah
Don't put your love in chains baby
No no, walk in the midday sun
I thought I was dreaming
I think it's amazing
I think you're amazing
I said celebrate the love of the one you're with
As this life gets colder
And the devil inside
Captured effortlesly. That's the way it was.
It happens so naturely. I did not know it was love.
The next thing I felt was you. Holding me close
What was I gonna do. I let myself go.
And now we fly through the stars.
Want this night will last for ever.
I've been waiting for you. It's been so long.
I knew just what I would do when I heard your song.
I fill my heart with your kiss. It gave me freedom.
You knew I could not resist. I needed someone.
And now we're flying through the stars.
I hope this night lasts for ever.
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (LOVES ME BETTER)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (NOBODY)
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (THAN YOU)
I wait for nighttime to come to bring you to me.
Can't believe I'm the one. I was so lonely.
I feel like noone can feel. I must be dreamin'.
I want this dream to be real. I'm in this feeling.
I make my whish upon a star
And hope this night will last for ever.
Ain't nobody (NOBODY)
Loves me better (LOVES ME BETTER)
Makes me happy This way
Makes me feel this way (NOBODY)
Ain't nobody (NOBODY BABY)
Loves me better
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (THAN YOU)
I wish you put your arms around me.
Yeah you put your arms around me.
I can't resist this sweet surrender.
Oh, my night's so warm and tender.
We stare into each others eyes.
And what we seek is no surprise.
I've got a feeling most would treasure.
And our love's so deep we cannot measure.
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay
All on my own
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(He works hard)
Everyday
I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, Lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love ...
Somebody, somebody ...
Can anybody find me somebody to love? ...
Take my life
Time has been twisting the knife
I don't recognise
People i care for
Take my dreams
Childish and weak at the seams
Please don't analyse
Please just be there for me
The things that i know
Nobody told me
The seeds that are sown
They still control me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Take my hand
Lead me to some peaceful land
That i cannot find
Inside my head
Wake me with love
It's all i need
But in all this time
Still no one said...
If i had not asked
Would you have told me
If you call this love
Why don't you hold me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open
Give me something i can hold
Give me something to believe in
I am frightened for my soul, please, please
Make love to me, send love through me
Heal me with your crime
The only one who ever knew me,
We've wasted so much time
(feat. Mary J Blige)
As Around The Sun The Earth Know She's Revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assured that
I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that's born is new
You know what i say is true
That i'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As today i know i'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past
But that i mustn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me i've left behind
Cause i'll be loving you always.
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that true love asks for nothing?
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
For now i know deep in my mind
The love of me i've left behind
Cause i'll he loving you always.
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Turn Down The Light
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronise
Don't patronise
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then i won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Mornin' will come and i'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And i will give up this fight
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
(feat. Astrud Gilberto)
Se Voce Disser Que Eu Desafino Amor
Saiba que isto em mim provoca imensa dor
So privilegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo a penas o que deus me deu
Se voce insiste em classificar
O meu comportamento de anti musical
Eu mesmo mentindo devo argu mentar
Que isso e ¸ bossa nova que isto e¸ muito natural
O que voce nao sabe nem siquer presente
E que os desafindos rambem tem coracao
Fotografei voce na minha rolleiflex
Revelouse a sua enor mein gratidao
So nao podera falar assim do meu amor
Ele ¸ e maior que voce pode encontrar 'viu'
Voce com a sua musica esqueceu o principal
¸ que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
¸ que no peito dos desafinados
Oh she knows
She takes his hand
And prays the child will understand
At the door they watch the men go by
In the clothes that daddy wore
Mothers pride
Baby boy
His father's eyes
He's a soldier waiting for war
Time will come
He'll hold a gun
His father's son
And as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before
Mothers pride
Just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son
And all the husbands, all the sons, all the lovers gone
They make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your daddy died a hero
In the name of god and man
Mothers pride
Crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
Why can't you do it
Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
(With a monkey, with a monkey, aye, aye, aye, uh-huh)
Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
I've had the rest, now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore
Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe I'll get what I'm askin' for
Why can't you do it Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then
I tried my best, but your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore
Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor
Why can't you do it Why can't you set your monkey free
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...
I loved you once but look at you now
You're in somebody else's bed
I loved you once so I don't know how
You're with a man like that, you'd be better off dead
He don't care, he don't treat you right
It's not fair, I still want you at night
Can't you see you made a mistake, girl?
But he treats you like dirt and I hate it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma, ma, ma, ma baby, look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now
He hits you once, he hits you twice
He don't care about the blood on his hands
But that's okay 'cause it's his wife
"It's the only thing she understands", he says
Say, you're gonna leave him
Say, you're gonna try but you're only talking
Oh, I know you think I'm a young boy
But I'm good and I think we can make it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You got two fat children and a drunken man
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Ma, ma, ma, ma baby, look at your hands
You should have been my woman when you had the chance
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life now
Don't like your guy now
Well, excuse me baby, but it's making me mad
Only one you want is the only one you'll never have
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like your life
Betcha don't, betcha don't, betcha don't like it
Na, na, na, na, na, na, lady, look at your hands
You've got two fat children and a drunken man
I. Lust
There's things that you guess and things that you know
There's boys that you can trust and girls that you don't
There's little things you hide and little things that you show
Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
But you don't and that's just the way it goes
I swear I won't tease you, won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible, just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby, now that we're friends
Every man's got his patience, and here's where my ends
I want your sex
I want you
I want your.....sex
It's playing on my mind, It's dancing on my soul
It's taken so much time, so why don't you just let me go
I'd really like to try oh, I'd really love to know
When you tell me you're gonna regret it
Then I tell you that I love you but you still say NO!
I swear I won't tease you, won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible, just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby, out in the cold
I can't take much more girl I'm losing control
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your.....sex
It's natural It's chemical (let's do it)
It's logical Habitual (can we do it)
It's sensual But most of all.....
Sex is something that we should do
Sex is something for me and you
Sex is natural - sex is good
Not everybody does it
But everybody should
Sex is natural - sex is fun
Sex is best when it's....one on one
one on one
I'm not your father
I'm not your brother
Talk to your sister
I am a lover
C-c-c-c-come on
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you consider pornography
Don't you know I love it till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you call pornography
Don't you know I love it till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
Sex with me

II. Brass in love
Oh so much love, that you've never seen
Let's make love, put your trust in me (hmm)
Don't you listen to what they told you
Because I love you, let me hold you
Oh, I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind...oh

With a promise (Oh)
I know we can come together
But the question is Will we ever (ever)
Together - you and me
My Baby Don't Care For Shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high tone places
Elizabeth taylor is not his style
And even ricky martin's smile
Is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me
I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
He just says his prayers for
My baby just cares
Dear Friends
So dear friends your love has gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise aand then
From all this gloom life can start anew
And there'llbe no crying soon
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
I loved you since i knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how i feel
I won't share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once i won't tell you again
It's a bad way
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
She takes the back road and the lane
Past the school that has not changed
In all this time
She thinks of when the boy was young
All the battles she had won
Just to give him life
That man, she loved that man
For all his life
But now we meet to take him flowers
And only God knows why
For what's the use in pressing palms
When children fade in mother's arms
It's a cruel world we've so much to lose
And what we have to learn we rarely choose
So if it's God who took her son
He cannot be the one
Living in her mind
Take care my love, she said
Don't think that God is dead
Take care my love, she said
You have been loved
If I was weak
Forgive me
But I was terrified
You brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love
The kind that makes devils cry
So these days my life has changed
And I'll be fine, and I'll be fine
But she just sits and counts the hours
Searching for her crime
So what's the use of pressing palms
If you won't keep such love from harm
It's a cruel world
You've so much to prove
And heaven helps the ones who wait for you
Well, I've no daughters, I've no sons
Guess I'm the only one
Living in my life
Take care my love, he said
Don't think that God is dead
Take care my love, he said
Love Me, Love Me, Love Me, Love Me
Say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Give me more than one caress
Satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
Oh wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me
All things to me
Don't you know
You're life itself!
Like the leaf
Clings to the tree
Oh my darling cling to me
For we're like creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me
All things to me
Don't you know
You're life itself!
Like the leaf
Clings to the tree
Oh my darling cling to me
For we're like creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind, wild is the wind
She's got a song in her head and she'll sing to me
She's got a laugh that reminds me of why she's in love with me
She'd never let show she was lonely in case it had frightened me
She was carpet and stone, independent, alone
But her love always shone around me
Every time...
Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the seasons and this state I'm in
And oh, I can't hold it all under one love
It was so long ago when we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love
She had a history of joy and pain in time
And she chose to leave
She had a thousand and one photographs
That you would not believe
She'll come to you in disguise
She's there in your children's eyes
Still our mother...She's still your wife (So let her...)
Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the reasons for this state I'm in
And oh, (trust me, she ain't going anywhere)
I can't hold it all under one love
(Trust me, she told me, when you're ready she'll be there)
It was so long ago (no don't let go of her)
When we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love
And the moment you see me
I will live in your life
We will walk through my garden
I will see through your eyes
I was in despair 'till she found me there
Every grown man cries with his mother's eyes
And when you're ready too
She'll come back to you
She's waiting
Father...
She's waiting...
You'll see me.......
Hey, You're Just Too Funky For Me
I gotta get inside of you
And i'll show you heaven if you let me
Hey you just too funky for me
I gotta get inside, (i gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (so when will that be)
I watch your fingers working overtime (overtime)
I got to thinking that they should be mine. Oh!
I'd love to see you naked baby
I'd like to think that sometime maybe
Tonight, if that's all right, yeah!
Hey, you"re just too funky for me
I gotta get inside of you, (won't let you go)
Won't let you, no-no
Hey you just too funky for me
I gotta get inside, (i gotta get inside)
I gotta get inside of you (i'll let you love me)
I watch you drinkin' and i take my time
I watch you drinkin' all that cheap red wine, oh!
I've got to see you naked baby
I'd like to think that sometime maybe
Tonight my goal's in sight, yeah!
Baby, baby, baby why do you do this to me?
Won't let you go, (won't let you go)
You're such a, you're such a
Baby, baby, baby why do you do this to me?
I've got to know. (i've got to know)
(i'm gonna be the kind of lover that you never had)
Hey you're just too funky
(you're never gonna have another lover in your bed)
You're just too funky for me
(would you like me to seduce you, is that what your trying to tell me?)
(everybody wants a lover like that) baby
(everybody wants a lover like that) yeah! Yeah!
(everybody wants a lover like that) everybody, everybody
(everybody wants a lover like that)
(everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that
Everybody wants a lover, everybody wants a lover like that)
(would you like me to seduce you?)
You're such a, you're such a
(would you like me to seduce you?) Yeah! Yeah!
(would you like me to seduce you?) You're such a, you're such a
Yeah!yeah!
There ain't no point in moving on
Until you've got somewhere to go
And the road that I have walked upon
Well, it filled my pockets
And emptied out my soul
All those insecurities
That have held me down for so long
I can't say I've found a cure for these
But at least I know them
So they're not so strong
You look for your dreams in heaven
But what the hell are you supposed to do
When they come true?
There's one year of my life in these songs
And some of them are about you
Now I know there's no way I can write those wrongs
Believe me
I would not lie, you've hurt my pride
And I guess there's a road without you
But you once said
There's a way back for every man
So here I am
Don't people change, here I am
Is it too late to try again?
Star people
Counting your money till your soul turns green
Star people
Counting the cost of your desire to be seen
I do not count myself among you
I may be living in a dream
It's just there seem so many of you
Can't help but hope
There's a difference between....you and me
You're a star
(i'm talking to you)
You're a star
Maybe your mama gave you up boy
(it's the same old same old)
Maybe your daddy didn't love you enough girl
Star people
Never forget your secret's safe with me
Just look at all the wonderful people
Trying to forget they had to pay for what you see
It's a dream
With a nightmare stuck in the middle
But where would you be
Without all of that attention
You'd die
I'd die
We'd die wouldn't we
(well wouldn't we)
Big, big, star!
Should go far!
Talk about your mother
Talk about your father
Talk about the people
Who have made you what you are
Talk about your teacher,
The bully boy who beat you
Talk about the people who have paid
For that new sports car
Did you get off on a bad foot, baby
Do you have a little tale to tell
Is that why you're a star?
Is that what makes a star?
Nothing comes for nothing, baby
That fame and fortune's heaven sent
And who gives a fuck about your problems, darling
When you can pay the rent
It's like a conversation, where no-one stops to breathe
Is it my imagination, or did God already leave the table?
Such destruction, and pure white castles in the sand
No time for introduction
With all that money changing hands
And the satellite says, "Take a look at all we have"
But the old man says,
"You want my family, for your liberty...I can't do that."
Look into the eyes of any patient man
Whether they be amber, green or blue,
There's a piece of God staring back at you
But they see our children, and the old folk fend for themselves
They see our broken women
On imaginary shelves
But the satellite says, "Won't you people look at all we have?
Don't you want it?
Can't you see the things that you lack?"
Once I Had A Secret Love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free
So i told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why i'm so in love with you
Now i shout it from the highest hill
I even told you the golden dafodill
At least my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore
Now i shout it from the highest hill
I even told you the golden dafodill
At least my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret
My secret love's no secret
(George Michael)
These are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last
Look around now
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legitimate excuses
The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much
But we'll take our chances
Because god's stopped keeping score
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us alt out to play
Turned his back and all god's children
Crept out the back door
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
These are the days of the empty hand
Oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there is over here
So you scream from behind your door
Say 'what's mine is mine and not yours'
I may have too much but i'll take my chances
Because god's stopped keeping score
And you cling to the things they sold you
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
That he can't come back
Beacuse he has no children to come back for
It's hard to love there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
So maybe we should all be praying for time
I've Had Enough Of Danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now i think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't
I just let me go....
'Cos teacher
There are things that i don't want to learn
And the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And i was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now i feel the hear
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, i know it's wrong
Just let me go....
And teacher
There are things
That i don't want to learn
Oh the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong , you're not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That i still have to learn
Hut the one thing i have is my pride
Oh so i don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold inside
Maybe just one more try
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on me?
I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face of a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
I'm blessed, I know
Heaven sent, heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now I know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there is no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed, well no one tried
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breathe you saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
Then just when it began
He took your love away
But I still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Comfort you when there is no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be
My love
Well I've been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed is always by my side
Oh, the lover I still miss
There's things that you guess
And things that you know
There's boys you can trust
And girls that you don't
There's little things you hide
And little things that you show
Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
But you don't and that's just the way it goes
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Now that we're friends
Every man's got his patience
And here's where mine ends
CHORUS
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your sex
I want your...sex
It's playin' on my mind
It's dancin' on my soul
It's takin' so much time
So why don't you just let me go
I'd really like to try
Oh, I'd really love to know
When you tell me you're gonna regret it
Then I tell you that i love you but you still say no
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Out in the cold
I can't take much more girl
I'm losing control
CHORUS
BRIDGE
It's natural
It's chemical
(Let's do it)
It's logical
Habitual
(Can we do it?)
It's sensual
But most of all
Sex is something that we should do
Sex is something for me and you
Sex is natural, sex is good
Not everybody does it, but everybody should
Sex is natural, sex is fun
Sex is best when it's (one on one)
(One on one)
(Huaah) (Sex)
I'm not your father

Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting
You've got to go to the city
Always the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah

But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the girls say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight, maybe tonight
And it's always the same . . .
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
You're beautiful, you are, and you know it
You're wasted here, you're a star
In this small town of hand-me-downs who don't even know it
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow
It doesn't get better . . .
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
Got to be a way, some way
Got to be some way to make your way to the light (All the boys say)
Got to be some way, today, today, maybe tonight,
They'll see you tonight
And it's always the same
A lways the same
Always the same dreams yeah yeah
Always the same (yes you're movin' up)
Cause you're beautiful (like no other)
Cause you're beautiful (take me, make me)
Cause you're beautiful (maybe tonight, they'll see you tonight)
Beautiful .... beautiful
And it's no good waiting by the window
It's no good waiting for the sun
Please believe me, the things you dream of
They don't fall in the laps of no-one
And it's no good . . . Waiting, waiting
And it's no good . . . Waiting
You've got to go to the city
You've got to go to the city,
They're going to find you there
'Cause you're beautiful
'Cause you're beautiful
Sometimes it brings you down
Sometimes it eats you up
Sometimes you think that your head's going to blow and
It doesn't get better . . .
Don't you know, you've got to go to the city
You've got to reach the other side of the glass
I think you'll make it in the city baby
I think you know that you are more than just
Some fucked up piece of ass
More than just ...
Sid you've got to think of something
'Cause your job pays you nothing
But you've got the things God gave you
So the music may yet be your saviour
Do you want a saviour, saviour
Say that you do,
You know you're wasted here, wasted here
That's all I wanted, something special
Something sacred in your eyes
For just one moment, to be bold and naked at your side
Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
Maybe this time is forever, say it can't be
That's all you wanted, something special
Someone sacred in your life
Just for one moment, to be warm and naked at my side
Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
But something tells me together, we'd be happy
I will be your father figure
(Oh, baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind
(It would make me)
I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(Please let me)
I will be the one who loves you
Till the end of time
That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime
That's all I wanted, just to see my baby's blue eyes shine
This time I think that my lover understands me
If we have faith in each other then we can be strong
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Till the end of time
If you are the desert, I'll be the sea
If you ever hunger, hunger for me
Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be
So when you remember the ones who have lied
Who said that they cared
But then laughed as you cried
Beautiful darling, don't think of me
Because all I ever wanted
It's in your eyes baby, baby
And love can't lie, no
(Greet me with the eyes of a child)
My love is always telling me so
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
Just hold on, hold on
I won't let you go, my baby
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
So I am gonna love you
Till the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I'll be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you
Hey sucker
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker
(Now there's nothing you can do)
Well I hadn't seen your face around town awhile,
So I greeted you, with a knowing smile,
When I saw that girl upon your arm,
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm.
I said "Soul Boy, let's hit the town!"
I said "Soul Boy, what's with the frown?"
But in return, all you could say was
"Hi George, meet my fiancee"
Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
Hey sucker,
(What the hell's got into you?)
Hey sucker!
(Now there's nothing you can do.)
A married man? you're out of your head
Sleepless nights, on an H.P. bed
A daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If your happy with a nappy then you're in for fun.
But you're here-
And you're there
Well there's guys like you just everywhere
Looking back on the good old days?
Well this young gun says CAUTION PAYS!
Chorus:
Young Guns,
Having some fun
Crazy ladies keep 'em on the run.
Wise guys realize there's danger in emotional ties.
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be.
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
I remember when he such fun and everthing was fine,
I remember when we use to have a good time,
Partners in crime.
Tell me that's all in the past and I will gladly walk away,
Tell me that you're happy now,
Turning my back-
Nothing to say!
"Hey tell this jerk to take a hike,
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like"
"Well sugar he don't mean the things he said"
"Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red
We got plans to make, we got things to buy
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy"
"Hey shut up chick, that's a friend of mine,
Just watch your mouth babe, you're out of line"
OoooooH!
GET BACK
HANDS OFF
GO FOR IT!
Chorus
