Live At Kelvin Hall

The Kinks Live At Kelvin Hall Lyrics
1.A Well Respected Man

'cause he gets up in the morning,
And he goes to work at nine,
And he comes back home at five-thirty,
Gets the same train every time.
'cause his world is built 'round punctuality,
It never fails.

And he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.

And his mother goes to meetings,
While his father pulls the maid,
And she stirs the tea with councilors,
While discussing foreign trade,
And she passes looks, as well as bills
At every suave young man

'cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.

And he likes his own backyard,
And he likes his fags the best,
'cause he's better than the rest,
And his own sweat smells the best,
And he hopes to grab his father's loot,
When pater passes on.

'cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.

And he plays at stocks and shares,
And he goes to the regatta,
And he adores the girl next door,
'cause he's dying to get at her,
But his mother knows the best about
The matrimonial stakes.

'cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.


2.Come On Now

Come on now
Come on, let the music get you movin'
Let 'em see that you're not losin'
See the clock, it's gettin' late now
Get you coat and fix your face

So come on now (baby come on now)
Well come on now
Well it's getting late and we better go
(it's getting late and we better go)

Come on now
Come on now while we still got time
Come on, baby, the sun is shinin'
Put your coat on and stop your whinin'
Oh, baby, oh it's all right

So come on now (baby come on now)
Well come on now
Well it's getting late and we better go
(it's getting late and we better go)

Come on now
Come on now honey and let me see
Just how much you do for me
I'm not waiting all night long
You told me to love you and that's all wrong

So come on now (baby come on now)
Well come on now
Well it's getting late and we better go
(it's getting late and we better go)


3.Dandy

Dandy, dandy,
Where you gonna go now?
Who you gonna run to?
All your little life
You're chasing all the girls.
They can't resist your smile.
Oh, they long for dandy, dandy.

Checkin' out the ladies,
Tickling their fancy,
Pouring out your charm
To meet your own demands,
And turn it off at will.
Oh, they long for dandy, dandy.

Knockin' on the back door,
Climbing through the window,
Hubby's gone away,
And while the cat's away
The mice are gonna play.
Oh, you low down dandy, dandy.
Dandy

Dandy, you know you're moving much too fast,
And dandy, you know you can't escape the past.
Look around you and see the people settle down,
And when you're old and grey you will remember what they said,
That two girls are too many, three's a crowd and four you're
dead.

Oh dandy, dandy,
When you gonna give up?
Are you feeling old now?
You always will be free,
You need no sympathy,
A bachelor you will stay,
And dandy, you're all right.
You're all right.
You're all right.
You're all right.
You're all right.
You're all right.


4.I'm On An Island

I'm on an island
And i've got no where to swim
Oh what a mood i am in
I'm on an island

I'm on an island
Since my girl left me behind
She said that i'm not her kind
I'm on an island

But there is no where else on earth i'd rather be
Then if my long, lost little girl was here with me

I'm on an island
And i've got no where to run
Because i'm the only one
Who's on the island

But there is no where else on earth i'd rather be
Then if my long, lost little girl was here with me
I'm on an island
And i've got no where to run
Because i'm the only one
Who's on this island

I'm on an island
I'm on an island


5.Milk Cow Blues

Well i've tried everything to get along with you
But i'm gonna tell ya what i'm gonna do
I'm sick of all your crying, gonna leave you alone
If you don't believe i'm going
You pack all my things, i'm gone
I'm gonna leave
Well if you don't believe i'm going
Watch me leaving you this way

Won't you please, well that sun looks good going down
Won't you please, well that sun looks good going down
But don't that ol' moon look lonesome when your baby's not
around

Won't you please, don't that sun look good going down
Won't you please, don't that sun look good going down
But don't that ol' moon look lonesome when your baby's not
around


6.Sunny Afternoon

The tax man's taken all my dough,
And left me in my stately home,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
And i can't sail my yacht,
He's taken everything i've got,
All i've got's this sunny afternoon.

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And i love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

My girlfriend's run off with my car,
And gone back to her ma and pa,
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
Now i'm sitting here,
Sipping at my ice cold beer,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.

Help me, help me, help me sail away,
Well give me two good reasons why i oughta stay.
'cause i love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And i love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime


7.Till The End Of The Day

Baby, i feel good
From the moment i arise

Till the end of the day

9.You're Looking Fine

When i first saw her
She looked alright,
Second time that i saw her
She looked outta sight.
And i said,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And i feel alright,
Yes, i feel alright.

She got all the angles,
So directly applied.
And when i see her,
I have to cry,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And i feel alright,
Yeah, i feel alright.

You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And i feel alright,
And i feel alright.
