And the star had to take his role
Not so very far from the stories we know Of ballads and the million in gold He's now hatin' To believe and to outrun you blind With a lot of ease he can spin you a line But take heed, 'cause when the magic declines He'll be sayin' Somebody, somebody, when I get to feel so fine Nobody, nobody, when I get to feel like cryin' I got a crowd like I never seen before Five hundred crazy women just a-rappin' at my door You work at night when the latter day is done You burn your heart out brother and before you see the sun For his love of Miss Hedy Lamarr He holds above his true passion guitar But he don't impress Persian the Shah But who's carin'? Somebody, somebody, when I get to feel so fine Nobody, nobody, when I get to feel like cryin' |

Those people who are darker than blue Are they gonna hang around this town
And let what others say conic true They're just good for nothing they all figure A boyish grownup shiftless jigger Now they can hardly stand for that Or is that really where it's at Those people who are darker than blue This ain't no time for segregation Talkin bout brown 'n' yellow too High yellow gal can't you tell You're just the surface of our deep dark well If your mind could really see You'd know the color same as me Pardon me brother as you stand in your glory I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story Now I know we have great respect For the sister and mother it's even better yet But there's the joker in the street Loving one brother and killing the other If your mind could really see You'd know the color same as me Pardon me brother as you stand in your glory I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story Pardon me brother I know we've conic a long way Let us stop being so satisfied For tomorrow can even be a brighter day. |

Ya makin up the time that ya lost on de record machine An scarin all the ladies half to death wi' ya new blue jeans
You got the cheek of old Nick you do Coz your daddies doing porridge in the scrubs now All on account of the job that ya pulled on a Halloween But you can fix it. It was a Halloween night and Jack was a seeking his prey He was stalking all the rooftops just a tryin to see the ladies at play An Jack was wearing his daddies clothes So the squealers would mistake him for his Pa now And the very same day his dad was copped for the dirty deed Jack-o-lantern, Jack-o-lantern change your evil ways Your window lovin your window lovin nineteen times a day You better raise your sights just a little bit higher To give your Mama just a little bit brighter day She needs a brighter day |

Talked to the cat
About ourselves seeing but blind Shadowed window pane Mirror designs Called you on the phone But I talked with the air Hotel in Paradise The House we shared Embracing In a dark dusty room Echoed cathedrals Alone with the fool My coat is a memory My head's in a daze Turquoise I desire you Caught in the doldrums Caught in the tide Nine I adore you The embraces in dark dusty rooms Echoes cathedrals Alone with my fool My coat is a memory My head's in a daze Turquoise I desire you Yes I do |

I'm so sad
Sad you're gonna leave me I'm so sad Sad you're gonna leave me When I heard the news I almost broke into The rocks you brought me But I changed my mind And then I went and sold them see I'm so hurt Hurt that you never told me I'm so hurt Hurt you never told me You can take the things You gave me when our thing was going so fine But remember this The car and the boat is mine I'm so sad Sad you're gonna leave me I'm so sad Sad you're gonna leave me Babeh now you're gone I 'll still be hanging on For you To conic back But don't leave it too long Coz in an hour I'll be making tracks I'm so sad etc. |
