Standing up in someones place looking down on thee
Now I may behold your face as it's supposed to be

Get you in but tried enough to keep you be
Give you in to take a...that you will need

Chorus

Oh may it not be so
See me looking down
I'm just looking on

Standing with their heads...
Watching down on me
Theres a...on my chest
Where the soul should be

Give you in but see who as they...by now
Get you in that meet you as they all cry now

Chorus

Repeat first two verses

. . .


Hey Mr. judge, your trams are coming down the line
The cargo ain't too much if you can chase the friends of mine
I heard they smuggle in the goods
Along the western union line

Once on a time the...kids...
Been so unkind run over the inspector man
Discovered they were yellow
Finally threw them in the can

Chorus
Turn over turn over

Turn over turn over
Turn over turn over
I need to know your back again
Oh yes

Turn the volume up until you blow the speaker cone
Hey Mr. judge you have to give your dog a bone
Theres a...in the rhino kitchen
Send him on a china call

Repeat first verse

Chorus

. . .


What is that strange air in the sky
Why should a strange star pass me by

How can they congratulate the people who destroyed the peace of mind
The silly people just like you and better too
How can they keep turning when the overture is burning on the faces
Of the people in the churches of the land

That's all a way that I cut from the lives
The day has come at last

People are crying in the boulevard
Their eyes are blind they cry so hard

How can they congratulate the people who destroyed the peace of mind
The silly people just like you and better too
How can they keep turning when the overture is burning on the faces
Of the people in the churches of the land

And so it seems there is only one dream
The day has come at last

And so it seems there is only one dream
The day has come at last

What you have done makes me ashamed
I'll blow it up and start again

How can they congratulate the people who destroyed the peace of mind
The silly people just like you and better too
How can they keep turning when the overture is burning in the faces
Of the people in the churches of the land

And so it seems there is only one dream
The day has come at last

. . .


Jenny had a bawl at me the other night
She threw it up an' drove away.
So I made a call completely outta sight
Hope to put it right today

When Alice comes back to the farm
I won't be in the cold tonight.
When Alice comes back to the farm
You know it's gonna be alright. yeah

Gimme an appointment put me in the light
That's a taste of what she needs.

Such a disappointment daddy's in the right.
Time for tearing out the weeds

When Alice comes back to the farm
I won't be in the cold tonight.
When Alice comes back to the farm,
You know it's gonna be alright, yeah.

Relax now baby that woman won't get past my door
I believe, I believe that woman won't pass my door
She won't be raisin' no alarm
Don't get around much any more

. . .


Can you believe no one has called anymore since the ball that was
Thrown in the spring
Brother, beware,
Nobody dare anymore since the days back when balls were the thing

Open up said the world at the door

Swimming around out in the hall
In the ground til she finds what she lost years ago
In a nightdress, dirty old vest, she never rests,

But the old folks at home never know

Open up said the world at the door

What are (? ) the heart, guess it's a part of the tale and the feeling
That's being with each (? )
Brother, beware,
Nobody dare anymore since the days back when balls were the thing

Open up said the world at the door

. . .


Well her sister used to hate it,
So I never thought she'd make it.
But she threw you all
Supposing in a spangle wrapper.

She will let you stroke her head,
But if you move away your dead.
She just break you up
Before you realize it's happened.

Chorus:
But she can really do the brontosaurus
And she can scream the heeby jeeby for us.
Until you know what she's really got
'cos she can do it loud
Well, she can do it, do it, do it!

Now her daddy's getting old
And he seemed to lose control
When the brontosaurus
Stormed into the house to trap her.

Well her sister used to hate it
So I never thought she'd make it.
Until she shook you up
Exactly like a firecracker

Chorus:
Really do the brontosaurus
And she can scream the hee-by jee-by for us.
Well you know she can really rock
So do it, do it now.

. . .


She's got me stolen
So you wonder why
Man I was rollin'
She has all I got

Feel too good
What can you do?
Can't seen to control myself
So how can I talk to you?

Met her in the garden
Taking the stairway home
Something hits me harder
Hits me like a stone

Feel too good
What can you do?
Can't seen to control myself
So how can I talk to you?

If it should be questioned
I can feel the heat

Mind her reflection
Stops you in the street

Feel too good
What can you do?
Can't seen to control myself
So how can I talk to you?

Feel too good
What can you do?
Can't seen to control myself
So how can I talk to you?

Feel too good
What can you do?
Can't seen to control myself
So how can I talk to you?

I feel too good
Feel too good feel too good
Yeah hey yeah
What can you do?

. . .


She sparkle like my jean
She more than seventeen
Seems keen in other words
She must have been
A former beauty queen
Now she's a naughty girl

Chorus

Wild wild wild tiger woman
(wild wild wild wild)
You move me very fast
But can you last another day
Get out of the way
Wild wild tiger woman
(wild wild wild wild)
You gonna break you're little fall
They call her the wild tiger woman

Tied to the bed
Tied to the bed

Shes waitin' to be fed
No pay to sir aday (? )
Cant see an ounce of reason in her head
Don't laugh and turn away

Chorus

Need another girl to come and grab her by the tail
As I was hoping that the ground would open up and take me in
Life is so obscene and the remarks that go unseen
Are being diminished to the earth
Ill never find another girl

All in the race
Such a friendly face
Seems clean and upper-class
Young indecisive
Minds are in a maze
She lose me very fast

Chorus

. . .


There she is I'm sure I seen her
Pushing in the queue to get to the front
Join the ladies in my dream
I know the perfect part you play
Ring my bell and sail away

Chorus

Come and take a ride on my omnibus
We could take you right to the terminus
Don't forget your ticket if you want to ride
Catching the ride inside

Just a dud their hansom falter
Harem on a bus flies over the town
Hopes and dreams lock up your daughters
Just too late to save the day
Ring my bell and turn away

Chorus

Sweet silver meadows
Protect us from the rain
Reins never break
Take us to the stars again
Hear the waves flow everywhere
See my sleighs through windy hair

Save the girls upstairs for later
Now you wonder if I can manage them all
Wrap them up in Christmas paper
Tell them they don't have to pay
Ring my bell and turn away

Chorus

Omnibus ride
Omnibus ride

. . .


Blackberry Way, absolutely pouring down with rain,
It's a terrible day.
Up with the lark, silly girl I don't know what to say,
She was running away.
But now I'm standing on the corner,
Lost in the things that I said.
What am I supposed to do now?

Goodbye, Blackberry Way
I can't see you, I don't need you.
Goodbye, Blackberry Way
Sure to want me back another day.

Flowers in the park overgrowing but the trees are bare
There's a memory there.
Boats on the lake, unattended now for all to drown
I'm incredibly down.
Just like myself they are neglected,
Turn with my eyes to the wall
What am I supposed to do now?

Goodbye, Blackberry Way
I can't see you, I don't need you.
Goodbye, Blackberry Way
Sure to want me back another day.

Run for the train, look behind you for she may be there
Said a thing in the air
Blackberry Way, see the battlefield of careless sins
Cast to the winds
So full of emptiness without her,
Lost in the words that I said.
What am I supposed to do now?

Goodbye, Blackberry Way
I can't see you, I don't need you.
Goodbye, Blackberry Way
Sure to want me back another day.

Goodbye, Blackberry Way
I can't see you, I don't need you.
Goodbye, Blackberry Way
Sure to want me back another day.

Is there something that you've wanted
More than anything

Something you took for granted
Never stop to think

Suddenly it's there in your eyes
Suddenly you can recognize
That something
That certain something

Do I want you
Oh do I want you
More than anything

Did I love you
Oh did I love you
Never stop to think

All my life I've wanted one thing more

All my life I've been searching for
That something
That certain something

Oh no no no
Its not like that at all

Oh no no no
Not as I recall

Is there something that you've wanted
More than anything

Something you took for granted
Did you ever stop to think

All my life I've wanted one thing more
All my life I've been searching for
That something
That certain something

. . .


Mister McCann was a practical man,
Curly was his only son,
And he loved him like no other can,
Bi-dum, bi-dum, bi-dum.

He discovered the world in a wonderful girl,
Though he played with more than one.
But he loved her like no other can.
Bi-dum, bi-dum, bi-dum

Chorus:
Oh Curly has she let you down and run?
Oh Curly where's your girly? Where's she gone?

Ran all over the town,
Till he covered the ground,
Every inch of Liverpool,
In a way I feel so bad
That she let he be made a fool.

But remember she's right,
As we freeze in the night,
When the dawn took years to come,
Does he love her like no other can
Bi-dum, bi-dum, bi-dum

Chorus

Now curse the day,
Yes it really shook you good.
Just broke away, no,
You didn't feel she would.
You didn't feel she would.

La-da-da, na- na- na- na-
Desolation tones play on
Though it breaks you Curly
Can't you see what she has gone and done?

He discovered the world
Such a wonderful girl,
So he played with more than one,
But he loved her like no other can
Bi-dum, bi-dum, bi-dum

Chorus

Oh Curly, where's she gone?
You didn't feel she would.

Oh Curly, where's she gone?
You didn't feel she would but she could.

La-da-da, na-na-na, na-na-na

. . .


Now the time has nearly come
You watch the setting sun
This time tomorrow ill be gone

Here nothing could be bad
No one to feel sad
This time tomorrow looking back

Yes ill miss those happy days
As the sunset meets my gaze

Ill remember that I love you

So this is how it ends
I'd love to make amends
This time tomorrow well be friends

Repeat last two verses

Mmmmhmmm la da da da da la oh....

. . .


Let the wind blow you out of my memory
Let the rain wash you out of my eyes
Too many bad times of loving you
Now I gotta realize

That I can throw you right out of my mind
And put you right back in your place
Cause lightning never strikes twice in the same place

I can live without loving you
Carry on in the same old way
Do anything I wanna do
Say what I wanna say

Cause I can throw you right out of my mind
And put you right back in your place

Cause lightning never strikes twice in the same place

Lightning strike
Lightning strike

Your kind of woman just drags me down
Want to put me on a ball and chain
I was king till you took my crown
I wanna win it back again

Cause I can throw you right out of my mind
And put you right back in your place
Cause lightning never strikes twice in the same place

Lightning strike
Lightning strike

. . .


Is there something that you've wanted
More than anything

Something you took for granted
Never stop to think

Suddenly it's there in your eyes
Suddenly you can recognize
That something
That certain something

Do I want you
Oh do I want you
More than anything

Did I love you
Oh did I love you
Never stop to think

All my life I've wanted one thing more

All my life I've been searching for
That something
That certain something

Oh no no no
Its not like that at all

Oh no no no
Not as I recall

Is there something that you've wanted
More than anything

Something you took for granted
Did you ever stop to think

All my life I've wanted one thing more
All my life I've been searching for
That something
That certain something
