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 |

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... Be quiet big boys don't cry big boys don't cry 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 Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me Ooh, you'll wait a long time 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 I'm not in love... |

Just like a rollin' stone
I'm outside lookin' in But if your chance came would you take it Where on earth do I begin I'm Mandy fly me I've often heard her jingle It's never struck a chord With a smile as bright as sunshine She called me through the poster And welcomed me aboard She led me she fed me She read me like a book But I'm hiding in the small print Won't you take another look And take me away Try me Mandy fly me away The world was spinning like a ball And then it wasn't there at all And as my heart began to fall I saw her walking on the water As the sharks were comin' for me I felt Mandy pull me up give me the kiss of life Just like the girl in Dr. No No No No Ah when they pulled me from the wreckage And her body couldn't be found Was it in my mind it seems I had a crazy dream I told them so but they said no no no no I found me on a street And starin' at a wall If it hadn't have been for Mandy Her promise up above me Well I wouldn't be here at all So if you're travellin' in the sky Don't be surprised if someone said Hi I'm Mandy fly me |

How have you been I've called a million times But to me you're never in I know I never had the style or dash of Errol Flynn But I loved you I'm doing really well I'm as happy as a lark I got a new apartment It's as safe as Central Park And if they ever mug me When I'm walking in the dark Will you know Don't hang up Don't hang up Rolled up in my camera With the big cheese up above I stumbled from my stag night To a never ending limousine The band went la di da di da And I got loady do di dodied Lousy violins began to play I went no no no And as the vol-au-vents exploded I was walking down the aisle the other way Don't hang up Don't hang up Don't say, Oooh Nobody's safe in our house Leave me alone But a but a please Leave me alone Just a mo, a minute I'm so alone We had Some honeymoon on itchy bedding Scum buzzing round your busy body Dumb waiters waiting sweating straining All mass-debating my woman We got a Bum Guatemala pensione Crumbling about our ears, Ole Even the trash man he say You got a dustbin romance It's going down the drain You got a low impedance She's got a rocky terrain Oo, you got a lot to learn Oo, you got a lot to learn You got a lot to learn about women A lot to learn about women women What's to learn about women We've both got a lot to learn Surprise surprise There's a hell of a well in your eyes Have we won the no Nobel Prize Has the colour run out of our dyes Surprise surprise There's a hell of a well in your eyes When the barman said "What're you drinking?" I said marriage on the rocks I know I never had the style or dash of Errol Flynn But I loved you Don't hang up Don't hang up Don't say ...... |

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.... |

People in love do funny things
Walk under buses and burn their wings People like us do nothing right Talk to the ceiling into the night Look at the smile in her eyes I knew I was right in my bones I feel the turnin' of wheels as it grows Look at my face in her eyes Am I right, am I wrong She's given me butterflies all along Ooh sitting alone in the dark Ooh feeling you close to me We're in a dream But the hands on the clock seem to know Tell me it's time to go People in love play silly games Running in circles and everywhere People like us can make believe Love is forever and I'll never be Ooh sitting alone in the dark Ooh feeling you close to me We're in a dream But the hands on the clock seem to know Tell us it's time to go |

I was walkin' down the street
Concentratin' on truckin' right I heard a dark voice beside of me And I looked round in a state of fright I saw four faces one mad A brother from the gutter They looked me up and down a bit And turned to each other I say I don't like cricket oh no I love it I don't like cricket no no I love it Don't you walk thru my words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet Well he looked down at my silver chain He said I'll give you one dollar I said You've got to be jokin' man It was a present from me Mother He said I like it I want it I'll take it off your hands And you'll be sorry you crossed me You'd better understand that you're alone A long way from home And I say I don't like reggae no no I love it I don't like reggae oh no I love it Don't you cramp me style Don't you queer on me pitch Don't you walk thru my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet I hurried back to the swimming pool Sinkin' pina coladas I heard a dark voice beside me say Would you like something harder She said I've got it you want it My harvest is the best And if you try it you'll like it And wallow in a Dreadlock Holiday And I say Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her oh yea Don't you walk thru her words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru her words 'Cause you ain't heard her out yet I don't like cricket I love it (Dreadlock Holiday) I don't like reggae I love it (Dreadlock Holiday) Don't like Jamaica I love her (Dreadlock Holiday |

The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
Take a look around We're quick to laugh when they've got troubles (ooh ooh) And we put 'em down We go We're not so hot you know It's like a roller coaster On a downward motion On a one way street We can't control our feet We're on the road to ruin Don't know what we're doin' She may be quiet She may be shy But don't you bring her down Don't pass her by The world of wisdom behind her eyes Could answer everything But you and I We seem to wander in a daydream (ooh ooh) We never look around The world is full of other people (ooh ooh) And we put 'em down We go We're not so hot you know It's like a roller coaster On a downward motion On a one way street We can't control our feet We're on the road to ruin Don't know what we're doin' She's not beautiful But don't make it plain You underestimate It's not a game A heart of gold Behind the drab Would comfort anyone But you and I Should try to see it from the other side (oooh) We'll get a shock It could surprise you The world is full of other people (ooh ooh) Take a look around We set the pace while others listen (ooh ooh) Never make a sound The rain must fall But we can change Our understanding Will remain So take a moment To wonder why The world keeps turning For you and I |
