Muskrat, muskrat candlelight
Doing the town and doing it right In the evening It's pretty pleasing Muskrat Susie, Muskrat Sam Do the jitterbug out in muskrat land And they shimmy And Sammy's so skinny And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed Singing and jinging the jango Floating like the heavens above Looks like muskrat love Nibbling on bacon, chewing on cheese Sammy says to Susie, "honey, would you please Be my missus?" And she says yes with her kisses And now he's tickling her fancy, rubbing her toes Muzzle to muzzle, now anything goes As they wriggle And Sue starts to giggle And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed Singing and jinging the jango Floating like the heavens above Looks like muskrat love |

Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy
My mind reels back to those days in the city When early in the morning take a trip, it's so pretty I could never understand why it wasn't so grand I got a hankerin' for a wind wave I got it through and through I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made It's got to be brand new Early in the morning when the sun comes up I'm gonna grab a fishin' pole and a sleepin' bag roll Head out for the land of the dumb but the pretty I won't stay long but you never know I got a hankerin' for a wind wave I got it through and through I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made It's got to be brand new I got a hankerin' for a wind wave I got it through and through I got a hankerin' for somethin' home made It's got to be brand new Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy My mind reels back to those days in the city Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy My mind reels back to those days in the city Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy My mind reels back to those days in the city ... |

We're afraid she's gonna let you down
Take your money and drop you to the ground Wouldn't want to see you messed around After all the love you think you've found She's gonna let you down Doesn't matter what we say Love's the stubbornest game to play Given time you might see it our way And we'll be sorry boy until that day She's gonna break away Remember all the times you helped us through Now here's our chance to do the same for you Guess the thing to do is wait around Lend a hand when you are on the ground She's gonna let you down She's gonna let you down She's gonna let you down |

Window frames a picture of winter time within my room
Sometimes then I laugh at the funny times we had in school Blowing leaves, broken dreams Seventeen, dancing queen, dancing queen I am asleep on a rainbow Hiding from the wake of the tide I am asleep on a rainbow Hoping for the rest of the ride Can you feel it moving inside of you? Can you let it go? The purple ghost of England in winter time, and who I used to know Blowing leaves, broken dreams Seventeen, dancing queen, dancing queen I am asleep on a rainbow Hiding from the wake of the tide I am a sleep on a rainbow Hoping for the rest of the ride Blowing leaves, broken dreams Seventeen, dancing queen, dancing queen I am asleep on a rainbow Hiding from the wake of the tide I am asleep on a rainbow Hoping for the rest of the ride I am asleep on a rainbow Hiding from the wake of the tide I am asleep on a rainbow Hoping for the rest of the ride |

Why do you laugh at me when you know I really care
You sometimes act as though I'm not even there And yet if you did to me the things I do to you I would surely say we're through Don't you know that I love you I was hoping you'd love me, too Don't you know that I love you, love you If I seem to you indiff'rent once or twice It's because I was feelin' quite that way And the time I hung up the phone and didn't speak again Well, it's funny to look back then Didn't I love you (Love you) Didn't I love you all the time Didn't you need me (Need me) Wasn't it a long, hard climb Don't you know that I love you I was hoping you'd love me, too Don't you know that I love you, love you |

You, can I make it known
I'd like to take you home You been away so long I'd like to see you But when I saw you at the local hop I tried to take you but you made me stop Then I saw that you were dancing with a rent-a-cop Whoa, whoa! The minute you pulled me through You thought that then you knew If not today, I'd find a way To get to you Just a little of nothin' That's all you had the time to give Just a little of nothin' Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me If you'd only have listened You'd have heard every word I said Just a little of nothin' Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me Da, da, da ... Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin') Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin') Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin') Just a little of nothin' (Just a little of nothin') Newton-under-Roseberry topping And it's cold and it's wet And you feel like you're part of all time Living in the gap between the echoes Feeling it hot And feeling it cold As long as there are fish in the sea Have a cup of tea Oh, as long as there are fish in the sea Have a cup of tea 'Cause you are running from the ring of the golden bell Like a bat out of hell You are running from the ring of the golden bell Like a bat out of hell You are running from the ring of the golden bell Like a bat out of hell You are running from the ring of the golden bell Like a bat out of hell There's a lady across the hall She's telling me it's all right (all right) I'm tryin' to give her my all She's sayin' I'm uptight Hell of a way to spend an afternoon Saw a movie tonight Got frightened and broke down (broke down) Got a call in the night My old lady just hit town Take her away, she's tryin' to turn me round I'm nowhere to be found I can't unread the pages I've already read And I can't feed these ages left in my head They're already dead, yeah |

First she says "Kings"
Then he says "Aces" It gets pretty hard for a lady to tell The hearts from the faces Don't be afraid I know I will bring you home Don't be afraid I know I will bring you home To me, to me, me I want to carry you across a threshold of fireflies And violet stones, all alone (all alone) Volcanic silver clouds fill pools and canyons around us All around (all around) But molten love Cooled by your kisses Take me down, take me down So, don't be afraid I know I will bring you home Don't be afraid I know I will bring you home To me, me, to me, me Molten love Cooled by your kisses Take me down, take me down Yes, molten love Cooled by your kisses Take me down, take me down So, don't be afraid I know I will bring you home No, don't be afraid I know I will bring you home Oh, don't be afraid I know I will bring you home Don't be afraid I know I will bring you home No, don't be afraid I know I will bring you home ... |

When the deep blue night is running close on your track
And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel Smell the perfume of the silent dream Fly the ocean, read a story to me Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree Speak to me So you think that star cluster shining bright in the sky Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die Smell the perfume of the silent dream Fly the ocean, read a story to me Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree Speak to me Smell the perfume of the silent dream Fly the ocean, read a story to me Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree Speak to me |

Don't wait for me at the willow tree
Love will be waiting for you The wind through the leaves plays a symphony Harmony, rhapsody too Don't bend with the wind Love must not end but begin Don't bend with the wind Your love must not end but begin La, la, la, la ... |
