I'm not in love, so don't forget it.
It's just a silly phase I'm going through. And just because I call you up, Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made. I'm not in love, no no, it's because... I like to see you, but then again, That doesn't mean you mean that much to me. So if I call you, don't make a fuss - Don't tell your friends about the two of us. I'm not in love, no no, it's because... I keep your picture upon the wall. It hides a nasty stain that's lying there. So don't you ask me to give it back. I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me. I'm not in love, no no, it's because... Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me. Ooh, you'll wait a long time. I'm not in love, I'm not in love... |

Thank you for the gift
The freedom to wonder In search of the light Are we gonna let it shine Forgiveness is the key The perfect emotion Will you show us the way To peace in our time Where the wild wind blows The deserts are shiftin' And the seed will grow In the sands of time From the darkest night A new day is dawning It's a long long way To peace in our time Tell me where can we find Peace in our - in our time Where can we find Peace in our time From a distant shore Voices are crying Can you hear them call Are we gonna light their way Salvation is the key We have to keep tryin' What we need right now Peace in our time Tell me where can we find Peace in our - in our time Where can we find Peace in our time Thank you for the chance To light up the darkness Leading the way Show us to the promised land Tear down these walls That keep us imprisoned What we're prayin' for Is peace in our time Tell me where can we find Peace in our - in our time Where can we find Peace in our time |

Deep in the night
I can hear you calling my name How can I try to help you woman If you go on hiding your pain Baby, Baby, the tears on your pillow are real You can't go on pretending to me when I see the pain that you feel A code of silence, is a dreadful thing It can make you feel harder It can keep you hanging on a string Here in the darkness When I hear you calling my name A code of silence is a deadly game It's a deadly game (what's that you say) It's a deadly game (speak to me now) It's a deadly game (deadly game) Lost in your dreams Trouble on your face in the pale moonlight Nowhere to run you've got to let me know Where you are standing tonight Baby Baby Baby I know that you're hurting inside Open your heart I know that we can make it If you talk to me now A code of silence, is a deadly thing It can make you feel harder It can keep you hanging on a string Here in the darkness When I hear you calling my name A code of silence is a deadly game It's a deadly game (what's that you say) It's a deadly game (speak to me now) It's a deadly game (deadly game |

I found myself on my knees in prayer
The consequence of my deep despair Now I must speak, get it off my chest It ain't no joke and it ain't no jest Every night she would come to me But her demands brought disharmony I said, "You can't bring your drums to bed, Your rhythm method's gonna leave me dead." Got to take this woman Cos she's a whole lotta woman Why don't you take this woman Take this woman lock her away It would be churlish of me to complain But caviar every night is insane I'm fit to burst, I'm not in the mood But she say, "Lie down babe, I wanna talk to you." Well I'm not fond of your family ties The hangman's noose in your mother's eyes You chatterbox like a talking head Je ne comprends pas the words that you said Take this woman Cos she's a whole lotta woman Why don't you take this woman Take this woman lock her away Don't want to love you I really tried But I'm hook line and sinkered deeply fried I've got to admit that with all your faults We touch and it feels like a million volts Listen - I realised I'd made a big mistake I'm only human for heaven's sake Lord give me strength don't let me falter I'm gonna take her to the alter And I'll take this woman Cos she's a whole lotta woman I'm gonna take this woman Take this woman lock her away I'm gonna take this woman Cos she's a whole lotta woman I'm gonna take this woman Take this woman lock her away Woh, yeah |

See the monkey peel the onion
See the monkey cry He can feel his tears are flowin' But he don't know why He continues peeling faster 'Til the onion is no more Now at last his cryin's over But all he had is gone Whatever for You and I are always chasing Wild ambitions and far off dreams As we run in all directions Nothing's quite the joy it seems If I tell you that I love you Don't ask how much And don't ask why Have no doubt and ask no questions Just believe it's not a lie Never take my love for granted But never put it to the test Like the monkey and his onion Too much investigation You know the rest You and I are always chasing Wild ambitions and far off dreams As we run in all directions Nothing's quite the joy it seems On that we could be contented With the good things that we've gained But in the end we're empty handed Just because we need the world explained |

I watch her move up and down the beach, well

On the street below these walls
Where I used to walk Now I can barely crawl All this darkness rising tall Lord shine a light for me I'm waiting to be called I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive Forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin Take this river to the sea Where the Delta flows The tide is washing over me Guide this soul to Heaven's door Show me where tomorrow lies I'm waiting to be born I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise I must keep I'm ready to go home So tired I lay down With these memories Breathe shallow deep inside of me If time has run its course with me Then I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive Forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin When the evening shadows fall When the time has come I'll let defences fall To surrender's to survive I will give up everything To those I leave behind I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive Forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise I must keep I'm ready to go home Again |

It doesn't help you if you scream and shout

Blue bird take me on your wing
Teach me how to fly Teach me how to sing Blue bird, guardian of my soul Inside everybody Is a story to be told I came in from the cold When I found someone Strong enough to bear The strain of our existence And troubles everywhere But time heals And I know you'll be there... ooh Blue bird symphony in flight Symbol of the dawn Symbol of the night I'll try with all my might to be a brother, brother, brother Always there for you Mother (mother, mother) knowing what to do And farther than anyone has flown Courage to spread your wings alone And who will help me? Blue bird Blue bird stranger to these shores I look into your eyes Have you been here before Take me through the door to Heaven Show me the treasures that you keep The magic of the sky And the beauty of the deep And I'll do what I have to do Be one of the chosen few Fly anywhere with... You, Blue blue bird, blue bird Blue bird, (Yeah) |

The one you love it's got a pretty front What a front The girls are holding hands It's a treat to indulge Or we can sit awhile and look around Look around, round round Look around, round round This is the age of consent You don't have to be coy This is your own pleasure bent We are here to enjoy everything Everything that the traffic allows We touch each other then we sip the wine We smile and nod together, this is fine, it's so fine Come on in the water's fine We can jump right in Or we can look around and bide our time Look around, round round Look around, round round This is the age of consent But you don't need to shout This is your own pleasure bent We are here to enjoy everything I'm not holding you back Heaven's sake Have you got to jump out of the cake I don't want your endeavours to fail But that pouch has got a sting in the tail Sting in the tail This little place has got me in a trance We're getting closer but it's just a dance, just a dance The band won't make a sound We can warm it up Or we can hold it back and look around Look around, round round Look around, round round This is the age of consent But you don't need to shout This is your own pleasure bent We are here to enjoy everything Everything can be yours, but don't shout |

Inside my loneliness and sorting through the mess
I came across a bunch of snaps and letters I found an eight by ten, taken God knows when It took me back to when we found each other How did I let it start If I could only remember Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart The tender parts we played I thought we had it made The recipe for life, the perfect fusion But when the love turned sour I found the happy hour But drinking for the world is no solution How did I let it start If I could only remember Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart Can't we go back to the start I needed someone to tell me Why did I break your heart The cost of loving is a heavy burden Somebody's gotta take the strain The things we said would make a cover story But who's gonna say Who should take all the blame We analysed ourselves It didn't really help No one to referee, no rhyme no reason I thought we had the best But when you flew the nest My heart decided it was open season How did I let it start If I could only remember Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart Can't we go back to the start I needed someone to tell me Oh, Oh, why did I break your heart Why did I break your heart. |

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea, You lay your bets and then you pay the price The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Communication is the problem to the answer You've got her number and your hand is on the phone The weather's turned and all the lines are down The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes. You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up. Ooh you made me love you Ooh you've got a way Ooh you had me crawling up the wall. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes.

A compromise would surely help the situation Agree to disagree but disagree to part When after all it's just a compromise of The things we do for love, the things we do for love.... |

She doesn't need diamonds She's lookin' for pretty things She doesn't want romance She doesn't need finance She's looking for rendezvous But every time she's going down She never looks around I'll wait and watch her with my lens until she brings the curtain down 'There behind the keyhole' with my fisheye I'm back in the darkroom I'm covered in fixer I'm making a photograph I'll send her some postcards In glorious colour I'm keeping the negatives I'll form a letter from the news With different type from different lines I'll tell the world about her I'll mail the People and the Times 'Oo it'll be so scandalous For the both of them But mainly her' She showed them her husband He ordered a dozen He thought they were fabulous The one with the -- The two of the -- And three of the -- He sold her to Hefner Who put her in Playboy He gave her a centre-fold I made a real blunder She made it in movies I made her a superstar |

Another fish head in the dustbin
Another loser in the queue for the soup kitchen Another reason for a visit We think you'd better come down Another nigger on the woodpile Another honky on the dole Another trip from off the 15th floor The greatest story ever told Was so wrong, so wrong 'Cos you promised milk and honey With an everlasting life And we listened with our ears closed And a blindness in our eyes But we heard them as they nailed you And we saw you crucified The second coming of the Holy Ghost We need a pocketful of miracles Two thousand years and he ain't shown yet We kept his seat warm and the table set The second sitting for the Last Supper Another Guru in the money Another mantra in the mail An easy way from rags to riches God's little acre's up for sale The time is right for ressurection We think you'd better come down The church don't ring with hallelujahs You haven't been for so long So long, so long Two thousand years and he ain't shown yet We kept his seat warm and the table set The second sitting for the Last Supper |

When you open your eyes
To a brand new morning And the sun shines Above you You pull on your breeches and say Oh well, It's the start of a brand new day For birds of prey You live and learn your life away But there below, your body must go Against the grain Like an old mule train Keeps pulling hard against the Here boy, there boy The boss got you running everywhere boy 'Ya got no money and ya got less sense And you ain't going nowhere' But there below your body must go For birds of prey You live and learn your life away But there below your body must go Against the grain Like an old mule train Keeps pulling hard against the Here boy, there boy The boss got you running everywhere boy, 'Ya got no money and ya got less sense And you ain't going nowhere' But there below your body will go At the end of the day When you look around you And the sun sets Deep inside you Dust off your breeches and say 'Oh well' Say goodnight to the man in the moon The sandman's on his way |

Oo he's a sly one
He's a razamataz man He flew in from Singapore On a flying junk man Oo he's a devil Oo and the devil's gonna bring you down Oo he's a stalwart With a heavy load on He's got a finger in everyone's pie And he's got what you want Oo he's a salesman Oo and his goods are gonna bring you down He's never got the stuff If you ever come to him without money He hasn't got the time For the people who are down on their knees But if the price is right You won't be asking him where it came from Oo he's a remnant From the swingin' sixties He pushed his load down the Kings Road To the Chelsea Potter Oo he's a snow job Oo and his shovels gonna cover you |

I'm dancing on the White House lawn
Sipping tea by the Taj Mahal at dawn Hanging round the gardens of Babylon Minnie Mouse has got it all sewn up She gets more fan mail than the Pope She takes the mickey out of all my phobias Like signing cheques to ward off double pneumonia Life is a minestrone Served up with parmesan cheese Death is a cold Lasagne Suspended in deep freeze I'm leaning on the Tower of Pisa Had an eyeful of the tower in France I'm hanging round the gardens of Madison And the seat of learning And the flush of success Relieves a constipated mind I'm like a gourmet in a skid row diner A fitting menu for a dilettante Life is a minestrone Served up with parmesan cheese Death is a cold Lasagne Suspended in deep freeze Love is a fire of flaming brandy Upon a crepe suzette Let's get this romance cooking, honey But let us not forget Life is a minestrone Served up with parmesan cheese Death is a cold Lasagne Suspended in deep freeze |

Well it's cold down here in the water
It's cold down here in the sea Who'd be a channel swimmer? Only a fool like me I've greased my body and I'm heading over the ocean These two arms are the only locomotion I need See me swim and see me float I don't need no motorboat or a yacht to get me there I'll do the breaststroke and the backstroke I'll do anything I'll be swimming when you're all asleep I'll be swimming when you're all awake I'll do the sidestroke the other sidestroke I'll do the butterfly But I ain't gonna crawl on back to you, no way I see your face in every breaker I see your smile across the reef I came across the sea to take you Don't make me out to be a thief You'll be dreaming when you're all asleep But I'll be drowning when you're all awake I did the breaststroke I did my best stroke I did everything But I ain't good enough 'Cause it's cold down here in the water It's cold down here in the sea Who'd be a channel swimmer? Only a fool like me Who'd be a channel swimmer? Only a fool like me... would forget he can't swim |

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea, You lay your bets and then you pay the price The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Communication is the problem to the answer You've got her number and your hand is on the phone The weather's turned and all the lines are down The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes. You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up. Ooh you made me love you Ooh you've got a way Ooh you had me crawling up the wall. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes. You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up. Ooh you made me love you Ooh you've got a way Ooh you had me crawling up the wall. A compromise would surely help the situation Agree to disagree but disagree to part When after all it's just a compromise of The things we do for love, the things we do for love.... |

Hear the money rustle Watch the greenbacks tumble Feel the Sterling crumble You need a yen to make a mark If you wanna make money You need the luck to make a buck If you wanna be Getty, Rothschild You've gotta be cool on Wall Street You've gotta be cool on Wall Street When your index is low Dow Jones ain't got time for the bums They wind up on skid row with holes in their pockets They plead with you, buddy can you spare the dime But you ain't got the time Doin' the....

Out in the mezzanine On the arm of a dumb marine Her beauty looks out like a trailer Norman Mailer Waits to nail her He's under the bed And he's waiting for her to be dead He's out on the patio With his polaroid and scenario And he's armed and he's dangerously.... Close was the weather When I was a kid She gave me a feather from her gown To cool me down, to cool me down And I was the galley slave Who lost his heart when the ship went down Lights, action, sound Roll 'em I had a part in the talkies When you were a little girl I've taken Lassie for walkies When she was the pup that Vaudeville threw up And destiny lead her Hand in paw to somewhere In Hollywood That's crazy, a dog up in Beverly Hills Crazy, crazy La, la, la, la, la....

I went to a party at the local county jail
All the cons were dancing and the band began to wail But the guys were indiscreet They were brawling in the street At the local dance at the local county jail Well the band were playing And the booze began to flow But the sound came over on the police car radio Down at Precinct 49 Having a tear-gas of a time Sergeant Baker got a call from the governor of the county jail Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets I love to hear those convicts squeal It's a shame these slugs ain't real But we can't have dancin' at the local county jail Sergeant Baker and his men made a bee-line for the jail And for miles around You could hear the sirens wail There's a rumor goin' round death row That a fuse is gonna blow At the local hop at the local county jail Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do Sergeant Baker started talkin' With a bullhorn in his hand He was cool, he was clear He was always in command He said "Blood will flow; Here Padre you talk to your boys..." "Trust in me - God will come to set you free" Well we don't understand Why you called in the National Guard When Uncle Sam is the one Who belongs in the exercise yard We all got balls and brains But some's got balls and chains At the local dance at the local county jail Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets Is it really such a crime For a guy to spend his time At the local dance at the local county jail At the local dance at the local county jail Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do |

Hum drum days
And a hum drum ways Hey kids, let me tell you how I met your mom We were dancin' and romancin' at the Senior Prom It was no infatuation But a gradual graduation From a boy to a man Let me tell you while I can The soda pop came free Hey Sis, one kiss, and I was heaven bound Now who would have guessed Milton's paradise lost could be found But in the eyes of the Dean, his daughter Was doin' what she shouldn'a oughta But a man's gotta do What a man's gotta do The consequence should be Church bells, three swells The Dean, his daughter and me They were dating in the park They were smooching in the dark Of a doorway for two She whispered "I love you - Ooh, you know I never felt this way before Ooh, you know the elevator in my heart Has gone awol, awol, awol, awol" And then I kissed her And when I kissed her It's a wonderful world When you're rolling in kisses Now, the paint is peeling (Hum drum days and hum drum ways) Now, and when the chips are down (Hum drum days and hum drum ways) Now, you kinda lose all feeling (Hum drum days and hum drum ways) Now, your head goes round and round (Hum drum days and hum drum ways) Round and round and round and round and round I'm throwing myself off this train Hum drum days And a hum drum ways Hum drum days, he's got Hum drum ways, oh boy Hey, you know I'm really earning now My ship came in with a cargo of dollars My name's lit up on the prow It's a wonderful world When you're rolling in dollars Now! |

Nobody brings me flowers I'm just here for operations I've been out for hours When I come to I'll wet my bed 'Cause when I get mad I sink so low As matron knows I get off on what you give me, darling I get off on what you give to me Yeah, I get off on what you give me, darling I get off on what you give to me And when I go to that seedy ward up in the sky You'll be waiting with a hypodermic needle and a graph Here comes the dark (I'm grateful for my anaesthetic) Out goes the spark (Delirious and apathetic) When I come to I'll wet my bed And when I get well I'll take revenge I'll wreak my wrath On all blood donors and their sisters Visiting time and flowers When sister brings that bedpan 'round I'll piss like April showers I get off on what you give me, darling I get off on what you give to me Yeah, I get off on what you give me, darling I get off on what you give to me (Repeat) And when I go I'll die of plaster casting love |

So say one and so say all
Say what you gotta say Or don't say nothing at all You been tossin' and turnin' through soft sticky nights While the Bronx below you fights to stay alive So say one and so say all Be what you gotta be Or don't be nothing at all Be gracious to your mother When you leave this neighbourhood The change is going to do her good Next to me you look bad 'Cos there ain't no fresh air for my momma, my momma But the drop is shear When you break away Take me away It's just about time to hit the road And say You gotta believe in something It's easy to see My God is fading away So pick up your bible and pray for me We're all alone in the darkness But our eyes are wide open We don't see nothing And our hands are tied To the railings of the Bowery And the humid city slickers So say one and so say all We had a lot to say And we said it all The cost of living in dreams Is rising like a crime wave The American way of dying And it gets you every time And it looks like it's got to my momma My momma May she rest in peace |

Do the Wall Street shuffle
Hear the money rustle Watch the greenbacks tumble Feel the Sterling crumble You need a yen to make a mark If you wanna make money You need the luck to make a buck If you wanna be Getty, Rothschild You've gotta be cool on Wall Street You've gotta be cool on Wall Street When your index is low Dow Jones ain't got time for the bums They wind up on skid row with holes in their pockets They plead with you, buddy can you spare the dime But you ain't got the time Doin' the.... Doin' the.... Oh, Howard Hughes Did your money make you better? Are you waiting for the hour When you can screw me? 'Cos you're big enough To do the Wall Street Shuffle Let your money hustle Bet you'd sell your mother You can buy another Doin' the.... Doin' the.... You buy and sell You wheel and deal But you're living on instinct You get a tip You follow it And you make a big killing On Wall Street ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By STEWART, ERIC/GOULDMAN, GRAHAM <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

If Garbo played guitar with Valentino on the drums Then we'd be nothing more than a bunch of darma bums So tune up, tune up Well we've never done a days work in our life And our records sell in zillions It irrigates my heart with greed To know that you adore me Up yours, up mine But up everybody's that takes time - But we're working on it Working on it (Ooh) We never seen the van - leave it to the roadies - Never met the roadies - leave them in the van All because of circumstances way beyond control We became the darlings of this thing called rock and roll, ooh Here I am a record on a jukebox A little piece of plastic with a hole, ooh Play me Buy me and you play me then my plastic turns to gold Here we are together on your hi fi A little piece of plastic with a hole, oh Fade me, fade me, fade me, fade me..... |

On a four wheel drive oasis There's a man with a thought in mind To cash in on the desert faces He's got a truckload of Yorkshire girls For your harem going places And the border bums never saw The guns in the whiskey cases There's a real, big demand And it's written in the palm of his hand He's gonna change the face of the desert He's gonna sweep away the sand Hang on sheik, I've got a yellow streak I ain't here, I'm a mirage Get back Des, keep it under your fez And don't give us away in the massage Look what I did for the pyramid I put a pool in and made it pay I built an elevator and a film theatre And I shipped it to the U.S.A. 'Cos there's a real big demand And it's written in the palm of my hand I'm gonna change the face of the desert I'm gonna sweep away the sand Hang on friends! There's a lot more goodies in the pipeline So this ain't the time to close the deal Here's the deal Ooh, now you've got a Howitzer all of your own Ooh, and a Panzer division to chauffeur you home Gun running is fun But hang on, friends, hang on friends Allah be praised, there's a whole new craze We're gonna shoot up the foreign legion And it's up with the sheik And down with the frog We're gonna liberate the region!

Down on the casting couch
A star is gonna be born A star with the stature of a Harlow Who's doomed And groomed to enrapture All her co-stars, and stuntmen, the co-stars Oh, let there be lights, action, sound Lights, action, sound - Roll 'em! Out in the mezzanine On the arm of a dumb marine Her beauty looks out like a trailer Norman Mailer Waits to nail her He's under the bed And he's waiting for her to be dead He's out on the patio With his polaroid and scenario And he's armed and he's dangerously.... Close was the weather When I was a kid She gave me a feather from her gown To cool me down, to cool me down And I was the galley slave Who lost his heart when the ship went down Lights, action, sound Roll 'em I had a part in the talkies When you were a little girl I've taken Lassie for walkies When she was the pup that Vaudeville threw up And destiny lead her Hand in paw to somewhere In Hollywood That's crazy, a dog up in Beverly Hills Crazy, crazy La, la, la, la, la.... (You better lie low) |

Oh Donna
You made me stand up You made me sit down, Donna Sit down, Donna Sit down You made stand up Donna waiting by the telephone Donna waiting for the phone to ring Oh Donna You make me break up You make me break down, Donna Break down, Donna Break down You make me break up Meanwhile waiting by the telephone Donna is waiting for the phone to ring "Hello, darling Yes I love you darling Yes I love you" Oh Donna You made me stand up You made me sit down, Donna Sit down, Donna Sit down You make stand up Donna I'd stand on my head for you Oh my love, my own one Oh my love, my own one Donna waiting by the telephone Donna waiting for the phone to ring Oh Donna Oh Donna Oh Donna Oh Donna Donna I love you |
