Took a walk and passed your house late last night All the shades were pulled and drawn way down tight From within, the dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade Oh, what a lovely couple they made
Put his arms around your waist, held you tight Kisses I could almost taste in the night Wondered why I'm not the guy whose silhouette's on the shade I couldn't hide the tears in my eyes
Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore Let me in or else I'll beat down your door When two strangers who have been two silhouettes on the shade Said to my shock you're on the wrong block
Rushed down to your house with wings on my feet Loved you like I'd never loved your my sweet Vowed that you and I would be two silhouettes on the shade All of our days, two silhouettes on the shade
Every time I see you lookin' my way Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat? In the car or walkin' down the highway Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
When you move up closer to me I get a feeling that's ooo-wee
Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat? 'Cause you're the one I love You're the one I love
When I feel you put your arms around me Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat? Then I'm glad, I'm mighty glad I found you Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
When you asked me to meet your ma I knew that baby, we'd be going far
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat? 'Cause you're the one I love You're the one I love
All my friends are cryin' out to meet you Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat? Now's the time to go and see the preacher Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Wedding bells are gonna chime Baby, baby, you're gonna be mine
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat? 'Cause you're the one I love You're the one I love
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat? Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat? Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Woke up this morning feelin' fine There's something special on my mind Last night I met a new girl in the neighborhood, whoa yeah Something tells me I'm into something good (Something tells me I'm into something)
She's the kind of girl who's not too shy And I can tell I'm her kind of guy She danced close to me like I hoped she would (She danced with me like I hoped she would) Something tells me I'm into something good (Something tells me I'm into something)
We only danced for a minute or two But then she stuck close to me the whole night through Can I be fallin' in love? (She's everything I've been dreamin' of) She's everything I've been dreamin' of
I walked her home and she held my hand I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could (I asked to see her and she told me I could) Something tells me I'm into something good (Something tells me I'm into something) (Something tells me I'm into something, ahhh)
I walked her home and she held my hand I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could (I asked to see her and she told me I could) Something tells me I'm into something good (Something tells me I'm into something) Something tells me I'm into something good (Something tells me I'm into something) To something good, oh yeah, something good (Something tells me I'm into something) To something good, something good, something good
She's a must to avoid A complete impossibility She's a must to avoid Better take it from me
You'll think she's a prize at the start (Prize at the start) But take my advice, play it smart (Just play it smart) She's nothin' but trouble Better cut out on the double Before she gets into your heart
She's a must to avoid A complete impossibility She's a must to avoid Better take it from me
When you stare into her pretty blue eyes (Into her eyes) There's no way to see through her disguise (Through her disguise) But don't try to love her, 'cause you'll quickly discover You're trapped in the web of her lies
She's a must to avoid A complete impossibility She's a must to avoid Better take it from me
Her lips look inviting, it's true (Oh, yes, that's true) But lots of other guys have felt like you do (Felt like you do) She'll build up your hopes, and when you need her the most That's when she'll say goodbye to you
She's a must to avoid A complete impossibility She's a must to avoid Better take it from me

No milk today, my love has gone away The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn No milk today, it seems a common sight But people passing by don't know the reason why
How could they know just what this message means? The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams How could they know the palace there had been Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town Becomes a shrine when I think of you only Just two up two down
No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day As music played the faster did we dance We felt it both at once, the start of our romance
How could they know just what this message means? The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams How could they know a palace there had been Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, my love has gone away The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town Becomes a shrine when I think of you only Just two up two down
No milk today, my love has gone away The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn No milk today, it seems a common sight But people passing by don't know the reason why
How could they know just what this message means? The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams How could they know a palace there had been Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, it wasn't always so The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town Oh, all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town Oh, all that's left is a place dark and lonely A terraced house in a mean street back of town

Deep down inside of night Therec£o a basic feeling of appetite for love The shadows fall, the moon comes out And night owls crawl the streets no doubt, for love (x2): Donc£? be fooled by her love You can never win You can buy her everything And she will blow it in Influential people went Their Swedish cars are just in trend for love A girl walks by across the street The headlights flash and then they meet for love Yeah, they meet for love They meet for love Yes, for love
I don't need her Don't need her kind of heartache and pain She's gonna have to see Things now can never be the same again
I won't miss her Well, maybe I'll miss her once in a while She thinks I'm gonna die Now that she's said goodbye But she's so wrong Her eyes just smile
Baby baby, don't you believe it? When it comes to your lovin', I can take it or leave it Baby baby, don't you believe it? When it comes to your lovin', I can take it or leave it I can take or leave your lovin' I can take or leave your lovin'
I'm not sorry I still think we're better apart She says she's gonna see A day when there's gonna be a change of heart
Baby baby, don't you believe it? When it comes to your lovin', I can take it or leave it Baby baby, don't you believe it? When it comes to your lovin', I can take it or leave it I can take or leave your lovin' I can take or leave your lovin'
Marcel lives in Wapping, the ducks are due his tapping Marcel's got a houseboat on the Thames There's grotesque decorations, eccentric demonstrations Let's go down to Marcel's on the Thames
CHORUS: Knock knock, sesame it's open, it's Alice in Wonderland Marcel, Marcel Can we come around, can we see you right away? Can we come around? It's such a groovy day Marcel, Marcel
Meet the oddest creatures with unfamiliar features Greeks & Turks with clerks & lemon tyne Men with long eyelashes & ladies with mustaches On Marcel's creaking house, it's on the Thames
(chorus)
Gusters work for giving, the panda men are livin' (repeat & fade): Let's go down to Marcel's on the Thames
Rise and shine, Sleepy Joe Now's the time, don't you know? To get into a new kind of dream You've been living alone With no Bell telephone And you don't have a shirt that is clean
You can rest your head on the corner of your bed You can watch the world go by But you're never gonna see What the other people see If you're always gonna be a Sleepy Joe
Rise and shine, Sleepy Joe There are places to go There are windows to clean on the way You've got nothing to lose But the shine on your shoes Do the best things you can every day
You can get upset at the way the people get You can turn your back on the crowd But you never gonna see What is absolutely real If you're always gonna be a Sleepy Joe
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe)
Rise and shine, Sleepy Joe Now's the time, don't you know? To get into a new kind of dream You've been living alone With no Bell telephone And you don't have a shirt that is clean
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe)
Rise and shine, Sleepy Joe There are places to go There are windows to clean on the way You've got nothing to lose But the shine on your shoes Do the best things you can every day
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe) La la la, la la la, la la la (Sleepy Joe)
