1.You Better Get Going Now

Can't you see that i'm down
I just don't want you hanging around
I guess you better get
Better get going now

I just heard of your love
You better get going now
You better get going now
You better get going now

I just heard it wasn't me that you were thinking of
I can't use it again

You better get going now
You better get going now
You better get going now
You better get going now

You think i can't do without you
But you find out you're wrong
I'll find many ways without you
You can't do me wrong
You've been walking the floor
I don't need you girl anymore
I think you better finish

You better get going now
You better get going now
You better get going now
You better get going now


2.1 X 2 X 3 X 4

One time two times three times four
Hey hey hey hey
Twelve angry husbands knocking on my door

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Accusing me of having done
Something that would make me run run run run
Why don't they sit and listen
All that they want to do is christen me
One time two times three times four

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Gotta go gotta play around no more
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Can't you see i've had a gun
Now their gonna make me run run run
Why don't they sit and listen
All they want to do is christen me
I didn't mean to play around with fire
But i never got burned
I won't do it again
One time two times three times four

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Gotta go gotta play around no more
Hey, hey, hey, hey

One time two times three times four


3.Monty And Me

Ahhhhh, ahhhhh

Running around fell into a fountain
Monty and me tripped over a log
Lay on my back and laugh 'til it hurt me
Beautiful day for walking the dog

All pretty little mothers were pushing their prams
She ran from a bald headed man with a bag in his hand
Would you like to come with me
We shall see what we shall see
I could see she was afraid
So we stepped in right away
Sic em boy

Monty and me go walking each sunday
Saturday night found me in a pub
Put in the beautiful day for walking the dog

All pretty little mothers were pushing their prams
She ran from a bald headed man with a bag in his hand
Would you like to come with me
We shall see what we shall see
I could see she was afraid
So we stepped in right away
Sic em boy

Running along fell into a fountain
Monty and me tripped over a log
Lay on my back and laughed 'til it hurt me
Beautiful day for walking the dog


4.It's About Time

Do you remember the first time
You got to feeling this way
Do you remember the first time
That you felt the way you feel today

You ought to know if you love her completely
You ought to know if you want her back
If you don't have a love that's complete now
It's about time you had
It's about time

Time ,time , time, time

When you can tell by her heartbeat
She wants to love you all night
But can you read all the love signs
You know when she feels it's alright

You ought to know if you love her completely
You ought to know if you want her back
If you don't have a love that's complete now
It's about time you had
It's about time

Do you remember the first time
You got to feeling this way
Do you remember the first time that you felt
The way you felt today

You ought to know if you love her completely
You ought to know if you want her back
If you don't have a love that's complete now
It's about time you had
It's about time


5.Sailing

Maybe tomorrow with the wind on my side
I will sail across the ocean
To the island of white, the sea is pink
Only one star in sight
That's where i'll be going
Because i'm searching for the light
There goes my mind again
It just can't stop its wondering around
Cause it wants to know everything that is going on

Sailing across the ocean
Sailing across the sea of time

Could be i'd find promotion
Maybe i can be what my teacher was to me
He was a man giving the truth to me

Let me see for myself what's going on
Maybe soon i will see the great horizon
The velvet sails of my ship in the night
Give away the colors of the faces delight

Land ho was the cry of the day
As i turned to face the captain
When i heard a voice say
There goes my mind again
It just can't stop this wondering around
Cause he wants to know everything that's going on

Sailing across the ocean
Sailing across the sea of time
Sailing across the ocean
Sailing across the sea of time
Sailing across the ocean
Sailing across the sea of time


6.Yes I'm Glad

Lend an ear to what i have to say
The rain outside has stopped with you to play
But if you notice just what i am noticing

You'll be glad
Step outside
Step outside you'll find
Look above
Look above your mind

Lend an ear to what i have to say
The sun outside is going to shine today
But if you notice what i am noticing

You will be glad
Look around
Look around you'll find
See the sound
See the sound of mind
Lend an ear to what i have to say
Turn around and see the light of day

Yes, i know just what you are noticing
Are you glad
Thank you for all you have given me
The reasoning to see what is good and bad
And i am thankful finding a way to
See the way and feel the way i am

I said look around
Look around you'll find
See the sound
See the sound of mind
Lend an ear to what i have to say
Turn around and see the light of day
Yes i notice what you're noticing

Are you glad
Yes, i'm glad
Are you glad
Yes, i'm glad
Are you glad


7.Little Roland Lost

I'm lost, i'm lost, find me
I'm lost, i'm lost, find me

He wondered too far now
He is lost and lonely
Little roland all alone
Cause he can't find his way
Wish i was home in the arms of my mom
She's the one to protect me
But here i am in the woods by myself
Won't somebody find me

I'm lost, i'm lost, find me
I'm lost, i'm lost, find me

I see a path maybe this is the way
That leads to safety
No just a dead end leading to nowhere
Won't somebody find me

I'm lost, i'm lost, find me
I'm lost, i'm lost, find me

Little roland see your field eyes
Little legs running wildly
Comes the night, strange noises
Guess he's lost forever

I'm lost, i'm lost, find me
I'm lost, i'm lost, find me


8.She's Alright

I only know that there is something about you
You turn me on when i'm in and around you
I can't understand why nobody told you that you're alright
Alright

You give me love anytime that i want it
I turn around you've already responded
Can't understand why nobody told you that you're alright
Alright

I've got something and you've got something
And we've got something that's here to stay
Realizing that there's no surviving without a life full of love
Love

She's the girl that is one in a lifetime
And pretty soon i'll be making it wifetime
Can't understand why nobody told her that she's alright
Alright

I've got something and you've got something
And we've got something that's here to stay
Realizing that there is no surviving without a life full of love
Love

I only know that there is something about you
That turns me on when i am in and around you
Can't understand why nobody told you
You're alright


9.Sha La La

Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

Walking out quite late one night
Not feeling happy or feeling down
In the dark i stumbled over something on the ground

As i got to my feet
I heard a strange voice singing low
Shout out a song i won't forget
Until my dying day i know

She said
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

When i heard her singing
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

First my impulse was to run
But then the magic caught my ear
An unforgettable refrain
A song for all the year

Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

Well then i heard her singing
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

In despair i cried out loudly
Begging for her to come out
Suddenly has it began
The sha la song died out

At last i realized who had sung it
Quite amazed i turned to see
The tall trees waving me goodbye
The sha la song and me
They sought me

Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la

And then i heard her singing
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la
Sha, la, la


10.Flying


11.Mr. Songwriter

Hey mr. songwriter
Write a song today
Sing to my baby
Who is going away

She is leaving on the evening plane
To where i don't know
Give me a song so sad that
She won't want to go

Now i am a songwriter
And i heard what you said
I'm going to write a song for you
Although love is dead

I know just how you feel and
Still i have to say
That if it doesn't make her stop then
Then i just turn away

I write the words
Make her cry
Make her sigh
Melody to make her see
Tomorrow but tomorrow she'll be gone

Hey mr. songwriter
Tell me what to do
She's gone away and left me now
For somebody new

I thought i could change her mind
But maybe i was wrong
Hurry up and wet your pen
And please sir don't be long

I write the words
Make her cry
Make her sigh
Melody to make her see
Tomorrow but tomorrow was too late


12.Strange Things

Something's up ahead
I heard the driver shout
The voice inside me said
Get down but don't get out

I called out to the guard
He said i'm not alive
Why it ain't that hard
I turned and took a dive

He laid upon the ground
I softly kissed your hair
Then we ran around
When no one else was there

I woke just as the sun was rising
Brush cobwebs from my eyes
The morning rain looked just like diamonds
Well that was quite a surprise

I wondered cross the meadow
Thinking of the dream
Followed by my shadow
Wondering where i'd been

Ya,ya, ya, na, na, na, na
Ya,ya, ya, na, na, na, na
Ya,ya, ya, na, na, na, na


13.Hey Pinky


14.The Freak

Step inside the tent ladies and gentlemen to see
The freak they call jacko the dog face man
He walks like a man and talks like a man
But was born with the face of a dog
An actual freak of nature

Bright lights
Blind me
And i am whizzing by the people
Pushing rushing to the music
And my eyes are running
And my legs are aching
And there are people winning
And the carnivals spinning

Merry go round
Go round
And they make me dizzy
People shouting as they shot and win

And my head is ringing
My ears are flitting
And my hair is thinning
And the carnivals spinning

After the people have gone
I walk along down sideshow ally
And from the tent i hear some crying
The sound of someone in pain

And written brightly on the canvas and woodwork
So that everybody could see
Was the question they pose to the public
When is a man not a man
When he's a freak in the sideshow

But we all got to cry
Yes, we all got to cry
And we all got to cry
Bright lights blind me
And i am questioned by the people
Pushing rushing
To the organ grinders music

And my eyes are running
And my legs are achy
And their are people crying
And the carnivals dying


15.Evil Child

Born crying
Abnormized
I was schooled by the devils child
I did things you only dream of
I was wild inside

And he said i was evil
Cause i am just an evil child
Through the rain and sunshine
They kept on calling me an
Evil child

Cause i am just an evil child

Miranda, belinda for i found that they were all the same
They come in hell fire and
She burned like a flame inside
And i called her my evil child
I loved her

She was magic pure magic
Through the moon and star shine
They keep on talking about us
They call us together
Evil child

Born evil
Die evil
Now i swing from a gallows pole
I did things i dream of
People said i was wild inside
They said i was evil
Evil child

Through the rain and sunshine
They keep on talking about me
They call me an evil child

Through the moon and sunshine
They keep on talking about me
They call me an evil child


16.Eleanor Rigby

Ah look at all the lonely people

Eleanor rigby picks up the rice
In the church where the wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Inside a window
Wearing a face she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong

Father mackenzie writing the words to a sermon no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks
In the dark because nobody's there
What does he care

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong

Look at all the lonely people
Look at all the lonely people
Look at all the lonely people
Look at all the lonely people

Eleanor rigby died in the church
And was buried along with her name
No body came

Father mackenzie wiping the dirt from his hands
Has he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong

Look at all the lonely people
