instrumental
Did I drive you away?
I know what you'll say,
You say, "Oh, sing one we know,"
But I promise you this;
I'll always look out for you,
That's what I'll do.
I say "ohhhhhhhh,"
I say "ohhhhhhhh."
My heart is yours,
It's you that I hold on to,
That's what I do,
And I know I was wrong,
But I won't let you down,
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah I will, yes I will)
I say "ohhhhhhhh,"
I cry "ohhhhhhhh,"
Yeah I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
And I saw sparks,
Yeah I saw sparks,
Sing it out.
La, la, la, la, oh-oh
La, la, la, la, oh-oh
La, la, la, la, oh-oh
Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
Caught in the times we live in
Caught in the times we know
It's taking a real hard line
You feel you're becoming a number
Nobody needs your trouble
Gives you the time of day
But kicking the world behind
Won't make it go away
Cos we're strong
And we're big enough to take
Whatever time will bring
We've only one life
And we've gotta lot to give
There's only one time
And we've got to make or break it
Let the Sparks fly out again
Let the feelings tell you when
Let the Sparks fly out again
Flick of the fingers
And they'll cut you down for sure
You gotta be hard sometimes
And so you pretend it's nothing
Finding what to believe in
That's what it's hard to do
Boy there was another time
I saw the best in you
Cos we're strong
And we're big enough to take
Whatever time will bring
Fog matters to you and me
But it can't touch Sherlock Holmes
Dogs bark and he knows their breed
And knows where they went last night
Knows their masters too
Oh baby, hold me tight
Just pretend I'm Sherlock Holmes
Just pretend I'm Sherlock Holmes
Just pretend I'm Sherlock Holmes
Stay, don't give me that same old act
I can call in Sherlock Holmes
He'll want your biography
And pictures of you in lace
And satin looking great
Oh baby, hold me tight
Spend the night with Sherlock Holmes
Hold me tight like Sherlock Holmes
Just pretend I'm Sherlock Holmes
Do you want to have fun?
Do you want a good time?
Do you want me to laugh?
Do you want me to cry
Do you want me to dance?
Do you want me to sing?
Do you want me to joke?
Should I be more like him?
I can dance like Sherlock Holmes
I can sing like Sherlock Holmes
But can't be Sherlock Holmes
I can dance like Sherlock Holmes
I can sing like Sherlock Holmes
You're gonna take a walk in the rain
And you're gonna get wet
(I predict)
You're gonna eat a bowl of chow mein
And be hungry real soon
(I predict)
Are my sources correct
(I predict)
They're gonna find the Queen is a man
But that Philip don't care
(I predict)
Lassie will prove that Elvis and her
Had a fleeting affair
(I predict)
Are my sources correct
Are my sources correct
Yes I know they're corect
(I predict)
Men, if you say your prayers
You'll never lose your hair
L.A. is safe
Ain't gonna quake
Ain't gonna quake, I predict
And somebody's gonna die
But I can't reveal who
Cold beer will cure a cold
Cold beer and pretzels, takes care of cancer
Moscow will march to France
They'll do the Can-Can Dance
Don't worry, it'll work out
Maxim's will throw them out
They're gonna stop Saturday night
So you better have fun now
(I predict)
They're gonna stop having the sun
So you better get tan now
(I predict)
And this song will fade out
Yes this song will fade out
And this song will fade out
(I predict)
We all expected champagne
But it never did come
But it never did come
We said, "Hey, where's our champagne?"
And they gave us a gun
Said to go and have fun
So many riches just out of reach
Coming attractions washed up on the beach, oh yeah
CHORUS
Let's take a walk
A walk down memory lane
Past the signs of the times
That lit our little way
And decide what it is
That made it all this way
And decide who it is
That might make it O.K.
The sun bears down on the man
With a girl on his arm
She's a victim of charm
She thinks, Sinatra the man
Think of him as you walk
Think of him as y ou walk
So many riches just out of reach
Coming attractions washed up on the beach, oh yeah
CHORUS
They say in 10 million years
That the sun'll burn out
And that'll be that
She drinks a couple of beers
Takes a look at the sun
She would love to see that
So many riches just out of reach
Coming attractions washed up on the beach, oh yeah
CHORUS
We're a fun bunch of guys
And we come from outer space
On the planet where we're from
War is even fun
We're a fun bunch of guys
We're a fun bunch of guys
Here to infiltrate and get a tan
We arrived here from the sky
On that cream pie parked outside
We're a fun bunch of guys
We're a fun bunch of guys
We speak English real good
On our TV's in the sky
Your reruns come in fine
We're a fun bunch of guys
Think about the places we've had our little fun
In the church at Christmas, busted by that nun
Then in that museum, beneath the mastadon
Stating our positions on the White House lawn
CHORUS
All you ever think about is sex
All you ever think about exclusively
All you ever think about is sex, all right with me
Say, do you remember the Dodgers and the Mets
50,000 people saw us and turned red
I'm still not recovered from Saturday's faux pas
When your faather came home, saw us, and dropped dead
CHORUS
In a world of lovers, we don't love each other much
Fact is, we're too busy to love each other much
CHORUS
She won't marry you
She don't look good in white
Don't try sweet talk
Unless you're hot for a fight
Still there's something that
Drives the guys half-insane
Ain't they heard that their love
For her is in vain
CHORUS
And all the guys in town
Just love to hang around
The toughest girl in town
Look outside and you'll see
The rain pouring down
That's the sign that
She's now on your side of town
Plan your life around
Someone proper and clean
That's the smart thing
But that means nothing to me
CHORUS
She's not evil
She's just a little confused
All her life she's been
Set upon and abused
Given that, she's more interesting
Than the rest
Given that, she's the one
Who I love the best
CHORUS
No, No use in lecturing them, or in threatening them,
they will just say ' who are you'
Is that a question or not, and you see that the plot is predictible
not new. But you're still stunned at the things you will do.
No, No use in taking their time or in wasting two dimes
on a call to God knows who
When all you feel is the rain and it's hard to be vain
when no person looks at you. So just be gracious and wait
in the queue.
chorus:
So when do I get to sing 'my way'
When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt
When do I get to sing 'my way' in heaven or hell
So when do I get to do it 'my way'
When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt
When do I get to sing 'my way' in heaven or hell
Yes, It's a tradition they say, like a bright christmas day
and traditions must go on.
And though I say yes I see, no I really don't see
is my smiley face still on?
Sign your name with an X, mow the lawn
CHORUS
They'll introduce me, Hello, Hello
Women seduce me and champagne flows
Then the lights go low, there's only one song I know
There, this home which once was serene, now is home to
the screams and to the flying plates and shoes.
But I have no souvenirs of these crackerjack years,
not a moment I could choose, and not one offer that I
could refuse
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Hello, everybody, this is Russel
Right before I sing I'm gonna make a muscle
Now that's out of my system
Here's some McFcnchen wisdom
They're cool and they know it
Don't drool or you'll blow it
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
All they like is sex and sitcoms
Try to be suave, they'll kick you in the bonbons
Medic, medic, medic, medic
There goes my athletics
I'm bananas over
I'm bananas over
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Wack wack wacky wacky women
Order in the court and here's the charges
Under the influence of wacky women
How do you plead, quit making muscles
Guilty, guilty
Have mercy you honor
Show compassion you honor
My feelings are genuine
Don't take me away from them
Don't take me away from them
Man there's so much stuff up here
A quarter pound of lean ideas
Half a pound of dirty jokes
One pound of non-essential quotes
It's where the dreamin' starts, upstairs
It's where the jokin' starts, upstairs
You got some small ideas, upstairs
You got some big ideas, upstairs
It's where you calculate, it's where you speculate
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
You are low on foreign words
Better meet a foreign girl
Take the foreign girl upstairs
And learn a lot of foreign words
A little enchante, upstairs
A little hey, ole, upstairs
Ich heisse Billy Boy, upstairs
A little soya sauce, upstairs
You got some big ideas, you got some big ideas
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
Upstairs, upstairs, upstairs
When you want the art to start
You cue the left side and the art will
Start to flow and flow and flow
And leave a stain on all your carpets
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
Upstairs, upstairs, upstairs
When you want the intellect
You cue the right side and you can
Collect the Nobel Prize in person
Or have someone mail it to you
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
Upstairs, upstairs
Crammed with common phobias
Still, it's a Utopia
This is where you kill a guy
And you know he's still alive
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of there?
Upstairs, upstairs, why don't you get out of my head?
That's when the cleanin' starts
Hey, that's when the cleanin' starts
Ooh, that's when the cleanin' starts
Yeah, that's when the cleanin' starts
Upstairs, upstairs, upstairs
Upstairs, upstairs, upstairs
Zoo time is she and you time
The mammals are your fav'rite type
You'd better want her tonight.
Heart beat
increasing heart beat
You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos
Elephants and tacky tigers.
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
And it ain't me who's gonna leave.
Flying
domestic flying
And when the stewlrdess is near
Do not show any fear.
Heart beat
increasing heart beat
You are a khaki-coloured bombadier
It's Hiroshima that you're nearing.
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
. . .
Daily except for Sunday
You dawdle into the cafe
Where you meet her each day.
Heart beat
increasing heart beat
As twenty cannibals have hold of you
They need their protein just like you do.
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
. . .
Shower
another shower
You've got to look your best for her
And be clean ev'rywhere.
Heart beat
increasing heart beat
The rain is pouring on the foreign town
The bullets cannot cut you down.
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
. . .
Census
the latest census
There'll be more girls who live in town
Though not enough to go round.
Heart beat
increasing heart beat
You know that:
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
It started on a Tuesday
It must have been that lunch meat
I haven't been intimate
And anyway, I'm careful
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
You shiver and shake
You're doin' Swan Lake
All over the place
Has everyone gone Christian?
Well, glory, hallelujah
But I'm beyond salvation
I haven't got a prayer
The Willy's do this to ya
The Willy's do this to ya
The Willy's do this to ya, to ya
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
It's hard to explain
Like Citizen Kane
To someone who's blind
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
You shiver and shake
You're doin' Swan Lake
All over the place, Willy now
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy
Physically, physically, I'm splendid
Mentally, mentally, I'm splendid
Morally, morally he is lax
And maybe that's the problem
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got, boy, what you got
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
You shiver and shake
You're doin' Swan Lake
All over the place
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
The Willys do this to you
The Willys do this to you
The Willys do this to you, to you
We know what you got, boy
We know what you got
We know what you got, boy, what you got
What you got, what you got
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
You shiver and shake
You're doin' Swan Lake
All over the place
They call it the Willys
They call it the Willys
I'm speaking Chinese
I'm swinging from trees
I'm wearing your gowns
La, la, la, la, Willys, Willys
Willys, Willys, the Willys
The Willys, the Willys, the Willys
We know what you got, boy, we know what you got
We know what you got, boy, what you got
(The Willys do this to ya, the Willys do this to ya )
(The Willys do this to ya, to ya)
We know what you got, boy, we know what you got
(The Willys do this to ya, the Willys do this to ya)
We know what you got, boy, we know what you got
(The Willys do this to ya, the Willys do this to ya, to ya)
We know what you got, boy, what you got

(The Willys do this to ya, the Willys do this to ya, to ya)
Man, there's never been a girl like this
That's not Nastassia
What an influential little Miss
That's not Nastassia
Imitation is a form of flattery, I'm told
She is getting flattered where it's hot and where it's cold
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
She is on the news again tonight
That's not Nastassia
Someone looking like her stole a bike
That's not Nastassia
Maybe it's a fad, a sort of modern Hula Hoop
Still it's of their own free will, no one has been duped
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
What a sense of power to have sway around the world
What a sense of power to control a billion girls
Change your hair style, they change theirs
Change your nail style, they change theirs
That's not Nastassia
Presidental wifes and topless maids
That's not Nastassia
More or less identically the same
That's not Nastassia
If I wasn't masculine, I would join the craze
Dye my hair and take on those Nastassianic ways
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
Now she wants some anonymity
That's not Nastassia
And all the rest want anonymity
That's not Nastassia
She should just forget it, it's a carbon copy world
When she starts to fade away everyone will fade
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia

That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
That's not Nastassia
That's Nastassia
There's a riot in Room 42
It was chemistry, now it's a zoo
And they kicked out the teacher, Miss Prune
Tuned the heat up to one hundred two
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Now they're ripping their shirts and their tights
Now they're swinging from fluorescent lights
Look at Bob, he was getting straight A's
Who's he carrying 'round on his face?
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Now they've called in the men wearing blue
There's a cameraman from Channel 2
On the news at 11 does Edgar Rice Burroughs
Get royalties on local news
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Well, tomorrow at 7:04
As the principal says, "Shut the door"
They'll be 25 Tarzans and 25 Janes
And a chimp from Zoology 4
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane
Tarzan and Jane

I looked up in the sun
And I didn't shake my eyes
Then a girl appeared and said
"Here, these are your size"
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
I tried to cross the street
And I almost got mowed down
But the softest little hand
Yanked me back to safer ground
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
She says, no smoking
She says, no drink
You should wear a parka
I'm really safe but I kind of resent
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
When she's near to me
And there's no one else around
And I can't control myself
She says, "Safety first, pal"
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
She says no speeding
And always eat right
Watch your fats and starches
I'm really safe but I kind of resent
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
She's safe in my arms
And I'm safe in hers
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
Suzie safety
I'm loyal, I'm faithful, I trust you
Then Friday, I walk in and bust you
With someone else
CHORUS
Stop me if you've heard this before
Stop me, stop me
Stop me if you've heard this before
Stop me, stop me
I'm wary of lasting relations
Since you started taking vacations
With all my friends
CHORUS
I know what you do
I know what you're up to
I know what you do
I know what you're up to
I lie here, I'm waiting, debating
I know you, you're out there, gyrating
With someone else
CHORUS
Begging isn't easy
It kills your self-esteem
Makes you feel dependent
It makes you feel mean
But subtlety is useless
In breaking down a wall
And subtlety is toothless
You'd rather see me crawl
So if it takes a flashy display
To make you warm up, OK
CHORUS
Because you're so important to me
So important to me
So important to me
Right now
This discrimination
Is cruel and inhumane
If I had any pride left
I'd say you were insane
If only you would love me
Or just be less intense
It isn't that I'm ugly
It isn't that I'm dense
But if it takes a cheap, tawdry scene
To make you see what I mean
CHORUS
There's a round-up at the love corral
And the air is full of dust
And I think it's going pretty well
But I'm trying to adjust
As we walk along the boulevard
With a hand in hand, in hand
And who cares if people stare at us
'Cause they'll never understand
Sisters, where is the jealousy, is it there?
Sisters, is this a felony anywhere?
Who cares? I see a double moon in the sky
Sisters, an oversupply
Do I have to be a diplomat
When I hear you fuss and fight?
Do I have to be an acrobat
As I try to get it right?
There's a double moon up in the sky
And it's shining down on me
And I know that I'm a lucky guy
That's my biography
Sisters, where is the jealousy, is it there?
Sisters, is this a felony anywhere?
Who cares? I see a double moon in the sky
Sisters, an oversupply
My arms are full, my lips are sore
By morning we could face the light
And I know if I was wrong for you
I would feel a little down
Well it wouldn't be disastrous
I would still have you around
Sisters, where is the jealousy, is it there?
Sisters, is this a felony anywhere?
Who cares? I see a double moon in the sky
Sisters, an oversupply
Sisters
Sisters
Sisters
Drop the goody-goody look and put on your shoes
Because I'm gonna recommend a little somethin' for you
(Oh yeah)
Grab your little Lulu or your Sally or Sue
And take her out to that Metropolis without no taboos
(Oh yeah)
What you say, who are you?
Never mind just sing the tune
Sextown U.S.A., we can go anywhere and it becomes
Sextown U.S.A., we can go here or there, it all becomes
The perfect place, and what a pace
Man, I've heard of Peyton Place and Pigalle too
But this is better than the others, it's American too
(Oh yeah)
No one has the time to eat a meal or to think
Because they're way too busy doin' Kama Sutra-y things
(Oh yeah)
Look around, see the sights
Go to bed what a life
Sextown U.S.A., we can go anywhere and it becomes
Sextown U.S.A., we can go here or there, it all becomes
The perfect place, and what a pace
There's a whole lotta fish in the sea
Sextown U.S.A., we can go anywhere and it becomes
Sextown U.S.A., we can go here or there, it all becomes
The perfect place, and what a pace
If you try to come here and you try to abstain
They'll send you to the prison for the criminally insane
(Oh yeah)
Maybe I'll just stay here for the rest of my life
Because it's better than commuting here with you every night
(Oh yeah)
Sextown U.S.A., we can go anywhere and it becomes
Sextown U.S.A., we can go here or there, it all becomes
Rockin' girls
Just 17
The cutest thing I've ever seen
C'mon baby, rock with me tonight
You're the only girl I ever met named Linda Lou
Maybe that's the reason that I'm so in love with you
See the girl with the red dress on
See the girl with the red dress off
C'mon baby, rock with me tonight
And you're the only girl I ever met who hates "Hey Jude"
Maybe that's the reason that I'm so in love with you
Take a trip around the world
All you have to say is
"C'mon baby," that gets 'em everywhere
I hope I never have to see the doctor 'cause of you
I hope you never have to see the doctor 'cause of me
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You look a little slow
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You still look kinda slow
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You still look kinda slow
Oh, now you're movin' fine
It's instrumental time
Rockin' girls
Just 17
The cutest thing I've ever seen
Rockin' girls, I'm on my knees
Don't get old and don't get mean
C'mon baby, please stay 17
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You look a little slow
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You still look kinda slow
Oh, rockin' girls, let's go
You still look kinda slow
Oh, now you're movin' great
I think I'll take a break
Saturday night and time that I go to bed
Daddy goodnight and Momma goodnight, it's ten
Don't forget, son, to pray
Anything, Dad, you say
I'm gonna pray 'til both my knees are red
CHORUS
Prayin' for a party, c'mon Lord, c'mon Lord
Prayin' for a party
All of my friends are prayin' like prayin' fools
Send us a little jive and we'll be all right
What do we have to do
What do we have to do
Whaat do we have to do, Lord, to get on through
CHORUS
I just can't wait no more
I'm runnin' out that door
God helps those who help themselves to a good time
CHORUS
I like you and you like me a lot
And we do those things that can make us feel hot
Then we join some friends, all of them are all right
and we talk a while, then we climb in our cars
What a night, we all drive into town
Where we'll park our caars, and meet the rest of our friends
At a place that's called, I forget what it's called
But it's really great, and all of our friends will be there
CHORUS
Popularity
Popularity
Popularity
I like you and you like me a lot
And it's nice to be all alone with you too
But it's also nice being out with our friends
'Cause they're all right, maybe that's why we're friends
CHORUS
I feel great, but it's getting real late
So I'll drive you home and you'll slide up real close
I'm so glad we met, and I like you so much
And I'm also glad that I got all those friends
CHORUS
I don't know why you treat me this way
I'm a sensitive guy and I'm really in pain
But you're cool to the point of saying "no dice"
Well, I'll never accept it, never accept it
Just think it over tonight
Just think it over for one more night (oh)
CHORUS
Please baby pleaase
Can't ya treat me better
Please baby please
Can't ya treat me better
I've been makin' a fool of myself
As the corniest guy in all of L.A.
Sending flowers and candy, the things I detest
But I gotta impress you, gotta impress you
All the things that I've tried
Are all the things that I once despised (oh)
CHORUS
No one's worth all the stuff I go through
Only you, only you, only you, only you
You no speakee the language when I get near
And I'm losin' it fast, I'm gettin' weird
CHORUS

(Gouldman)
Pamela, Pamela
Remember the days
Of inkwells and apples
And books and school plays
Where little Brer Rabbit kissed Pooh in the wood
And Fluff was the cat that sat on the rug
Oh, Pamela
I remember so well
When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks
With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks
Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss
Secret discussions about a first kiss
But you were young
And everything was new
Impatient to do things you couldn't do
Oh, Pamela, Pamela
You started to grow
Answers to questions you wanted to know
When the rest of your childhood
Forgets as a dream
And the harshness of life
Dims those peaches and cream
When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks
With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks
Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss
Secret discussions about a first kiss
But you were young
And everything was new
I wanna got to cool places with you
I wanna take you cool places tonight
I wanna go where nobody's a fool
And no one says uh, "Hey girl, need a light?"
I want to move like this and that
A minimum of chit chat
I never wanna cool down, cool down, cool cool cool,
Cool places tonight
I gotta tell you, you're lookin' real good
They let us in so I'm feelin' all right
I like to go where sometimes they refuse
Yeah, I remember last Saturday night
But I'm feeling cooler now
And they could tell we're cooler now
It's obvious we're cooler now, cooler now, cool cool cool,
Cool places tonight
CHORUS
I wanna go, I wanna go, etc.
I want to go to cool places tonight
I wanna go to cool places with you
And after that we'll slip out for a bite
A coffee shop, and toast, coffee and juice
And then we'll sleep 'til 5 p.m.
And start it up all over again
I never want to cool down, cool down, cool cool cool
CHORUS
Dangerkid Intro::
Just give me one chance?
Baby give me one chance?
Me and you girl we're gonna dance,
Trust me baby!
We're gonna have a great great time,
Your the girl that's always on my mind.
No matter what i'll never let you down,
All i'm asking for is One More Chance!
Verse 1:
Kirstie?
This song is for you, my dedication.
2 letters of ya name, your my inspiration.
I fucking love you, why did you leave?
I'm not moving on, your the air that i breathe.
3 words for you, please come back.
Sitting here crying, while writing this track.
Don't know what to do, cos your not here.
Still Waiting, & crying with a tear.
Shit almost forgot, would you give me another try?
Please let me know by a text, leave me a reply.
It's you that i truly miss,
Your on my mind, Got ya name on my fist.
Bridge:
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it for you.
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it so true.
Every girl need 2 know, your my one & only.
Now i'm travelling in time, reminsing i'm lonely.
Verse 2:
Damn girl you're so damn beautiful,
You want the truth? look i'll get truthful.
Without you i feel so depressed,
Ask me anything i'll confess.
The reason i want you back,
Cos you make me happy that's a fact.
I love you that much i'll run the world,
Just to be with you girl.
All the hours on the phone,
All the late talks when we're at home.
I would never let you down,
I'll make your world turn around.
I would never make you cry,
I'll never tell a lie.
Cos you mean so much to me baby,
With you i'll live happily.
Please let me show you,
Please let me hold you.
Bridge:
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it for you.
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it so god damn true.
Verse 3:
It was summer when we started talking,
I always leave you a text in the morning.
So you went without saying goodbye,
A few seconds later with a tear i cry.
All i'm asking is can i have another chance?
Cos you make me smile everytime i glance.
Trust babe we will make this work,
It's you that i want i deserve.
Can you hear me? it's so true,
The feelings are here can you tell?
My sky's gone vanilla not blue,
With you my sky will turn blue.
Bridge:
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it for you.
Every bar i've ever wrote, i wrote it so true.
Every girl need 2 know, your my one & only.
Don't be tempted by her favour
Never turn your back on mother earth
Towns are hurled from A to B
By hands that look so smooth to me
Never turn your back on mother earth
Grasp at straws that don't want grasping
Gaze at clouds that come down crashing
Never turn your back on mother earth
Three days and two nights away from my friends
Amen to anything that brings a quick return to my friends
Never turn your back on mother earth
I'll admit I was unfaithful
But from now I'll be more faithful
Never turn your back on mother
Never turn your back on mother
Never turn your back on mother earth
A lady gets a lotta things
She gets a 20 carat ring
She gets the alimony too
She gets to look good in the nude
But there's one place where they've been whipped
Between the nose and upper lip
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
One hundred hairs make a man
I tried a handlebar design
My Fu-Manchu was real fine
My Ronald Colman made 'em blink
My Pancho Villa made 'em think
But when I trimmed 'em real small
My Jewish friends would never call
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
One hundred hairs make a man
One hundred hairs make a man
One hundred hairs make a man
M-M-Mustache
M-M-Mustache
M-M-Mustache
They call me 'Sir' and that ain't bad
Sometimes they think that I'm my dad
And women flirt and you can bet
They like that tickle that they get
The only time I feel bad
Is when they guess the lunch I've had
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
M-M-Mustache, mustache, mustache, mustache
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
She may like caviar and cocktails
She may like symphonies and sun
But underneath the gown and high heels
She's like a fully loaded gun
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
The world is runnin' out of heroes
The world is runnin' out of time
Where are those martial arts maneuvers
We're getting massacred by crime
Well, listen buddy don't you worry
She may not look like Genghis Khan
And she may talk about her manicure
But she can sure get things done
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays, modesty plays
Don't underestimate the lady
She may seem cultured and demure
But there's another side and careful
She'll hit you like a 2 by 4
The world is running out of heroes
And everybody's out on bail
As long as modesty is on our side
Good will surely prevail
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Modesty plays, modesty plays
Can you raise both your hands and clap 'em
Can you say, "sure, I'll always try"
Can you make friends among people and animals
Basically, everything is easy
Give it a try, you'll see I'm right
Cause if a mouse can be special, well so can you
And my name is Mickey Mouse
To the right is Minnie Mouse
And we own a little place in Disneyland, California
Let's have a party and be happy
Can we invite our closest friends
We can ask Donald Duck, Pluto, and all the gang
And my name is Mickey Mouse
To the right is Minnie Mouse
And we own a little place in Disneyland, California
Well, you should try to smile, dear
Get yourself a pet deer

(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
When I was born a little premature
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Momma just couldn't take no more
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Had no time to learn to cry
Goodbye mama got to fly
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Entered school when I was two
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
P H D'd that afternoon(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Never entered any sports
I didn't look too good in shorts
Got divorced when I was four
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Well I've seen everything there is
I've done everything there is
I've met everyone but Liz
Now I've even met old Liz
No time for relationship
Skip the foreplay let 'er rip
You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock
You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
When I did lots of traveling
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Parts of me unraveling
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
The army then rejected me
Said I had two flat feet
Wore them out when I was three
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Too bad there ain't ten of you
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Then I'd show you what I'd do
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
I could cheat on five of you
And be faithful to you two
But there's only one of you
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Well I've seen everything there is
I've done everything there is
I've met everyone but Liz
Now I've even met old Liz
No time for relationship
Skip the foreplay let 'er rip
You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock
You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
(You gotta beat the clock, you gotta beat the clock)
Turn out the light, yeah, the light
And I might have a chance
I guess I look slightly worse
Than the Elephant Man
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
I went to high school
And majored in looking real bad
I got a real ugly mom
And a real ugly dad
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, ohWhoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Dress for success
That's what they say
I'm such a mess
That there just ain't no way
I know my breath is the sweetest
It really is great
But when I try just to kiss you
You say, "Better wait."
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Dress for success
That's whaat they said
Gimme some clothes
To slap over my head
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
I went to Balboa Island
And laid in the sand
I may be as ugly as sin
But at lest now I'm tan
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
Whoa, oh, oh, I wish I looked a little better
We lie marooned on a tropical isle in the sun
Someday they'll come, take us back with a dumb "welcome home"
Until that day arrives
Lucky me, lucky you
Lucky me, lucky you
I'll lose my tan and the very next day you'll be gone
I 'll get a job and I'll marry a marvelous blonde
Until that day arrives
Lucky me, lucky you
Lucky me, lucky you
Maybe the world has decided we died in that gale
We were the ones who they voted most likely to fail
Lucky me, lucky you
Lucky me, lucky you
Trains are leaving from the station
(Hop on board for Love-o-Rama)
Gopin' for that sweet sensation
(Hop on board for Love-o-Rama)
Brothers, sisters, all invited
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
All your love will be requited
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
CHORUS
You'll feel my love and then you'll know
You'll feel my love and then you'll know
You'll feel my love and then you'll know
You'll feel my love and then you'll know
Love-o-Rama, will it move me?
(Ain't no doubt about Love-o-Rama)
Is it liable to improve me?
(Ain't no doubt about Love-o-Rama)
In the moonlight, nothing fancy
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
Don't go pulling a Polanski
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
CHORUS
Get on up man, time is flying
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
Someone needs you, someone's crying
(Love him, love her, Love-o-Rama)
Final call for Love-o-Rama
Final call for Love-o-Rama
There's no way that I could ever explain
I got to hold you in my arms, dear
Or else go insane
And what I'm feelin' in my heart
Feelin' in my soul
It makes me just a little dizzy
And out of control
But I've been waiting all my life
For someone I could stand
And you're the primary reason
I feel like a man
And what I'm feelin' in my heart
Feelin' in my soul
I couldn't ever hope to tell you
I'm sure you must know
CHORUS
It ain't the cool thing to be leaving
You're a sweet, young and naive thing
Here comes the night
There goes my heart
Let's make love and not fall apart
I'm so grateful
For the love that we shared
I'll never take for granted
That you're always there
And when I think about the world
And what is going on
It makes me even more thankful
That you're still around
And I've been waiting all my life
For someone I could stand
And you're the only one so far
Who could understand
And what I'm feelin' in my heart
Feelin' in my soul
I couldn't ever hope to tell you
I'm sure you must know
CHORUS
When I see you there
With tears in your eyes
And I know something's gonna happen
That I might not like
I feel a worry in my heart
A worry in my soul
In fact, it's only you rehearsing
For some silly role
And you say, did I have you fooled
Were you really fooled
And I say, sorry pretty baby
No, I wasn't fooled
And what I'm feelin' in my heart
Feelin' in my soul
I couldn't ever hope to tell you
I'm sure you must know
CHORUS
All I get is quiet
Laughing friends won't buy it
I've been known to tell them white lies
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven
I can see their faces
As I mention places
Places that I've overdescribed
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven
CHORUS
Heaven isn't so far away
You walk through the door
And you're light years away
Someone looks right into your eyes
And you feel the magic that you can't deny
And you sway
All through the night
If you stay
All through the night
Look at the shape I'm in
I just got back from heaven
Searching for some glory
People make up stories
One too many drinks at the bar
But this time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven
CHORUS
Any destination
Makes a great vacation
This is something greater by far
This time I swear it's the truth, oh, oh
I just got back from heaven
The lawns grow plush in the hinterlands
The perfect little setting for the one night stands.
The drapes are drawn and the lights are out
It's the time to put in practise what you've dreamed about.
Well she can show you what you must do
To be more like people better than you.
Amateur hour goes on and on
When you turn pro you know
she'll let you know
Amateur hour goes on and on
When you turn pro
you know she tells you so.
Girls grow tops to go topless in
While we sit and count the hairs that blossom from our chins.
Our voices change at a rapid pace
I could start a song a tenor and then end as bass.
So choose your partners everyone
If you hesitate the good ones are gone.
Amateur hour goes on and on
. . .
Dance
laugh
wine
dine and talk and sing
But those cannot replace what is the real thing
It's a lot like playing the violin
You cannot start off and be Yehudi Menuhin.
So Amateur hour goes on and on
Well, I married a Martian, and boy, am I sorry
Well, she came down from the sky
She couldn't stand the attitude there
She took human form, not bad she seemed different
She had a European flair and I said, "Where you from?"
And she said, she said, "I'm from Mars"
I married a Martian her loving is different
Viva la difference every, every night
I married a Martian I took her to Vegas
I dressed her in ermine she had the time of her life
Though she called me Mister Right
I could sense something was wrong
She was hardly home at all
She'd keep telling me she was doing studies of Earth
She had tendencies to flirt and it really did hurt me
I married a Martian, boy, am I sorry
I don't recommend it to anyone in their right mind
I married a Martian, I think I see changes
I know I see changes she doesn't look like our kind
Her arms, her legs, were growing and growing
Her form, once thin, was changing, was changing
I can't describe the changes, so gruesome
She looked, she seemed so Martian
I married a Martian, I'm going to Vegas
It isn't for pleasure, I'm getting a quickie divorce
I married a Martian, boy, am I sorry
I don't recommend it to anyone in their right mind
I married a Martian who was I kidding
She only had loved me 'cause I was the first guy she saw
I married a Martian and now it is over
Go back to your cronies back to your own form of life
I married a Martian they're good in the movies
HOSPITALITY ON PARADE (Ron Mael) 3:58
Someday we'll have one extra coastline
We'll tire of the Atlantic
By then we'll be rid of your lot
A shot heard 'round the world will soon be shot, will soon be shot
'Til then have some tea and tobacco
Hey Jenny meet your master
Be nice show him kindness and such
Be kind to our master
But a feeling is a-brewing that we don't need any masters
'Cause we all can be a master and we all can be a king
We speak and we sing the way that you do
And showed you our hospitality on parade
But now we are we, we're no longer you
Tara to that hospitality on parade
Today you're going to find their descendants
In places all around you
You're faced with the easiest task
How best to act a king when always treated like a king
Lunch counters, at banks and the theatre
Kind help right there to serve you
Men selling, and girls selling too
And everyone's special
We all are someone special
Yes, we all are someone special
For we all are someone special
Where the customer is king
Whoever you are, whoever you bring
You'll find that hospitality on parade
However you look, you're always a king
Wherever there's hospitality on parade
I'm special, you're special
He's special, she's special
We're all someone special
And i am the king
(CHORUS)
Whoever you are, whoever you bring
You'll find that hospitality on parade
However you look, you're always a king
I looked a lot like a Vogue Magazine
Perfect and smooth, they all called me a dream
Flawless and loveless, no intimacy
I only lived to be seen
Not to be touched, too clean
Funny face, I want a funny face
Funny face, I want a funny face
Billions of dollars are spent on the face
Covering, smoothing, and changing the shape
Everyone wanted a face just like mine
Nobody wanted me
Only to look like me
Funny face, I want a funny face
Funny face, I want a funny face
Well, I'm ungrateful but I don't care
I hear comments from everywhere
Probably nothing behind the face
The face, the face
That was the day that I jumped off the bridge
Trying to end it all, I barely lived
Doctor Lamaar said "Your face is a mess"
All of the rest you can guess
I got my one request
He got his one request
And I am happy, yes
And he is happy, yes
I got my one request
He got his funny face
And I am happy, yes
And I am happy, happy
Happy, happy, happy
Funny face, I want my funny face
Might as well just say it
Might as well just come out and say it
You have your fans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
All that Moonlight and Magnolia
It just doesn't cut it, it just doesn't cut it anymore
You had your chance, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
Ashley Wilkes, gentleman that he is
He'll protect you
You had your fans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
If I wanted to, I could remove all thoughts of him from your head
Like this, like this
Like this, like this
You can lie all you want to do
You can cry all you want to do
You can scheme all you want to do
See if I care
You've had your fans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
Buildings were burning to the right of us
Buildings were burning to the left of us
Those fires are out now
You have your fans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
That soft southern accent
Delivered without the slightest trace of a British accent
Even that's starting to wear on me
I've made my plans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
If I wanted to, I could remove all thoughts of him from your head
Like this, like this
Like this, like this
You can lie all you want to do
You can cry all you want to do
You can scheme all you want to do
See if I care
You had your plans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
We cut each other so much slack
That we were both falling over backwards
You had your chance, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
Got my bearings now, know where I'm going now
Out... Out...
You had your chance, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
Might as well just say it
Might as well just come out and say it
Might as well just say it
Might as well just come out and say it
I've made my plans, but frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
I've made my plans, and frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn
I've made my plans, and frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn
Everybody move
Move it on up and move it down
Sweet little thing ease it down
Fall in the pool and you'll drown
Everybody move
Wear out the soles of your shoes
Wear out the soles of your feet
Move to the beat, toute de suite
There's a red lite a comin'
There's a red lite a comin'
Slam on the brakes and slow down
Everybody move
Unwanted pounds will disappear
You'll have an itty bitty rear
Better lay off of the beer
There's a new thang a comin'
There's a new thang a comin'
Better do something with your hair
It's the sound
Of today
Played so loud
You're in pain
I feel good
Really great
As I talk
To my feet
Dance godammit
Dance godammit
I get scared
When I'm alone
So I don't
Stay alone
I like clubs
I like girls
I like music
And that's it
Dance godammit
Dance godammit
I do leaps
I do splits
I do spins
I do dips
Wanna dance
Wanna dance
Wanna dance?
Do you wanna dance?
I get scared
When I'm alone
Ah, don't leave me
All alone
Wnna dance
Wanna dance
Wanna Dance?
Do you wanna dance?
Dance godammit
Dance godammit

"Give me ten wheels for Jesus!"
-Elvis Hitler
While the symphony played
I was starting to fade
'Til I woke to a cymbal crash
I turned to my right
You were gone, that's all right
These platonic things are such a burn
I walked out on the street
While the big city lights
Tried to sell me on a way of life
I was already living
Well, a limousine longer than
The Golden Gate Bridge
Pulled up along side me at the curb
All the glass was blacked out
so I knew there was somebody
Very important in there
Then the door opened up
And a blonde in the shadows said,
"Get inside."
And of course, I got inside
CHORUS
Madonna, is that reall you
Madonna, what 'cha gonna do
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Well, she took me back to her penthouse
And showed me all of her platinum records
And of course there were a lot
Then we sat on the sofa
And she turned on a classical station
But the reception was poor
And we sat there and talked
And talked a little more
And one thing lead to another
As they often do in these situations
All the stars are shinging tonight for me
All the stars are shining tonight glory be
CHORUS
In the morning
She fixed me a continental breakfast
And then she said, "Well, goodbye."
And I said, "Can I see you again?"
And she said, "No."
And I said, "Well, goodbye."
And I never old anyone about this
'Cause after all
It's none of their business what she or I did

I've done my best to forget you
Dumped your perfume down my drain
My telephone is always in use, day and night
You've got a weird conception of love
If you thought that was love
Like a rocket, I am ready to fly
Back lit so you can't see their faces
Your replacement is everywhere
Brown bodies just a little too wide prance around
O.K., let's say my judgement was poor
Give me one more chance
And like a rocket, I will fly to your side
CHORUS
You got a hold of my heart
You got a hold of my heart
You got a hold of my heart
I've done my very best to forget you
And in fact, I failed
And like a rocket, I will fly to your side
CHORUS
The grass is greener on the other side
That's what some old guy said
But I know that old guy must have lied
Or he was out of his head
CHORUS
I found my thrill
I found my thrill
I found my thrill in Beverly Hills
Folks call her Jill
Folks call her Jill
Folks call her Jill but that ain't what I call her
She's like a star
She's like a star
She's like a star in some long running TV series
And we make love
And we make love
And we make love all the time
CHORUS
Come - the shopping mall of love
Come with me - the shopping mall of love
Quality - the shopping mall of love
All for free - the shopping mall of love
She makes me laugh
She makes me laugh
She makes me laugh
She makes me laugh
She makes me laugh
She makes me laugh
CHORUS
She's so uninhibited
She's so unlimited
That's just the start
She's so magnificent
She's so significant
A work of art
Like the Mona Lisa
The Venus de Milo
The Pieta
Or a Reclining Nude On The Wall
I found my thrill
I found my thrill
I found my thrill in Beverly Hills
CHORUS
Happy to see you
Setting me off like sparks
You ignite all the colours inside my heart
On the doorstep , like we'd never been apart
Hope you know that I'm happy to see you
(Verse One)
Its just another night
The boys are getting hype
But baby in my head
I'm nailing you instead
Its just another night
Under the strobe lights
Can't hear what I'm dancing to
Just wanna be with you
(Bridge)
Ooh chest tight and I'm ready to go
On my mind , I can't wait any more
(Chorus)
Now happy to see
Setting me off like sparks
You ignite all the colours inside my heart
On the doorstep , like we'd never been apart
Hope you know that I'm happy to see you
(Verse Two)
Them girls put on a show
But they will never know
What makes you beautiful
I watch them come and go
Them boys got all the talk
But they don't know a lot
You know my every thought
That's why I make em walk
(Bridge)
Ooh chest tight and I'm ready to go
On my mind , I can't wait any more
(Chorus)
Now happy to see you
Setting me off like sparks
You ignite all the colours inside my heart
On the doorstep , like we'd never been apart
Hope you know that I'm happy to see you
Nothing needed to say
We got nothing to prove
The world doesn't matter no when I'm with you
We got no games to play
So we got no rules
The world doesn't matter you're here and
(Chorus)
I'm happy to see you
Setting me off like sparks
You ignite all the colours inside my heart
On the doorstep , like we'd never been apart
Hope you know that I'm happy to see you
Happy to see you
Setting me off like sparks
You ignite all the colours inside my heart
On the doorstep , like we'd never been apart
