Oh Carol, I am but a fool
Darling, I love you
Though you treat me cruel
You hurt me and you make me you cry
But if you leave me I will surely die

Darling, there will never be another

Here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide behind a smile and paint the town.
Though I cry since you're gone,
You'll never know because the show must go on.

I've been sad, I've been blue
Ever since the day that you found someone new.
I pretend but you can't tell,
With my broken heart I play my part so well.

Step aside, here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down.
I make believe, with a smile,
But the king of clowns is cryin' all the while.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.

There are tears you'll never see,
No you'll never see my tears and pity me.
Though I'm hurt, still I'm proud,
Always laughin' as I walk among the crowd.

Step aside, here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down.
I make believe, with a smile,
But the king of clowns is cryin' all the while.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.

Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns...

I'm living right next door to an angel
And I just found out today
I'm living right next door to an angel
And she only lives a house away
She used to be a skinny little girl
But all of a sudden she's out of this world
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

Since I saw her this morning
I'm on cloud number nine
There's a garden of Eden
At the house next door to mine
I took a look and oh what a shock
To find a little bit of heaven
Right here on the block
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

I can't believe that this is the girl next door
Her funny little face isn't funny no more
Sixteen and oh what a dream
Ain't it strange how she changed
Into such a lovely angel

Saw her walkin' down main street
And I couldn't believe my eyes
It used to be such a plain street
But now it's paradise

I feel so happy I'm feelin' so good
I'm the luckiest devil in the neighbourhood
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

Choo, choo train chuggin' down the track
Gotta travel on, never comin' back
Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

Bye, bye love my baby's leavin' me
Now lonely teardrops are all that I can see
Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

I'm gonna take a trip to lonesome town
Gonna stay at heartbreak hotel
A fool such as I there never was
I cried a tear so well

Choo, choo train chuggin' down the track
Gotta travel on, never comin' back
Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

I'm gonna take a trip to lonesome town
Gonna stay at heartbreak hotel
A fool such as I there never was
I cried a tear so well

Choo, choo train chuggin' down the track
Gotta travel on, never comin' back
Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

Oh, oh got a one way ticket to the blues

Do~~ down
do be do down down~
Come a come a down
do be do down down~
Come a come a down
do be do down down
Breaking up
is hard to~~ do
Don't take your love
away from me
Don't you leave
my heart in misery
If you go
then I'll be blue~
'Cause breaking up is
hard to do remember
When you
held me tight
And you kiss me
all through the night
Think of all
that we've been
Through and
breaking up
Is hard to do~
they say that
Breaking up is
hard to do~~
Now I know~ I know
that it's true~~
Don't say~ that
this is the end
Instead of breaking up
I wish that
We were making up
again I beg of you
Don't say goodbye~
can't we give our love
Just one more try
come on baby
Let's start anew
'cause breaking up
Is hard to do~
they say that
Breaking up is
hard to do~~
Now I know~ I know
that it's true~~
Don't say~ that
this is the end
Instead of breaking up
is wish that
We were
making up again
I beg of you
don't say goodbye~
Can't we give our love
just one more try
Come on baby

'Cause breaking up

Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Tonight's the night I've waited for
Because you're not a baby anymore
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
What happened to that funny face
My little tomboy now wears satins and lace
I can't believe my eyes you're just a teenage dream
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

When you were only six
I was your big brother
Then when you were ten
We didn't like each other
When you were thirteen
You were a funny Valentine
But since you've grown up
Your future is soon up
From now on you're gonna be mine so

If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Woh who who who yeah yeah yeah

Woh who who who yeah yeah yeah
Hey little devil

Hey little devil you're always runnin' around
It's time that someone started bringing you down
There'll be some changes made
Your rovin' days are through
Hey little devil I'm gonna make an angel out of you

Hey little devil you got me all in a whirl
You're a cute little devil and I'm gonna make you my girl
You're out to break my heart
But just before you do
Hey little devil I'm gonna make an angel out of you

They say beware but I don't care
I love you just the same
You're an old heart breaker and a mischief maker
But I'm wise to your name

Woh woh woh
Hey little devil everything is gonna be fine
'Cause someday soon I'm gonna make you all mine
There'll be no runnin' around
You met your Waterloo
Hey little devil I'm gonna make an angel out of you

Woh woh woh

The moon is bright above
Oh what a night for love
And as I hold you near
I whisper in your ear

I go ape everytime I see you smile
I'm a ding dong gorilla and I'll carry you cave man style
I'm gonna bump you on the head and love you all the while

Well, I'm a monkey's uncle who's a cousin to a chimpanzee
Like I was reelin' and a-rockin' and a-swinging from a coconut tree
Oh honey can't you see you bring out the monkey business in me

Chorus
Oh, ranga tanga ring ting tong I'm related to old king kong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With a honky tonky monkey shine
When you hold my hand I'm a pre-historic man,
I go ape !!!

Like a barrel on monkeys on an abadaba honeymoon
I go screechin' and a-squealin' and a-howlin' like a big baboon
Oh honey I'll explode if you don't come and kiss me soon

Music

Honey you know that I'm gonna be true to you
I'll keep you in bananas and bring you coconuts too
And we'll settle down in the nearest county zoo

Oh, ranga tanga ring ting tong I'm related to old king kong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With a honky tonky monkey shine
When you hold my hand I'm a pre-historic man,
I go ape

There's a lady who's sure All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know, The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold. And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last. When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
How I'd like to look into that little book
The one that has the lock and key
And know the boy that you care for
The boy who's in your diary
When it's late at night what is the name you write?
Oh, what I'd give if I could see
Am I the boy that you care for?
The boy who's in your diary
Do you recall and make note of all
The little things I say and do?
The name you underline, I'm hoping that it's mine
Darling, I'm so in love with you-oo
Please don't leave me blue, make all my dreams come true
You know how much you mean to me
Say I'm the boy that you care for
The boy who's in your di-a-ry
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh-whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh)

That's when the music takes me
Takes to a brighter day
That's when the music takes me
Helpin' me to find my way

When the day is so long that I can't hold on
When I'm down and I think my hope is gone
Oooh, Yeah,
That's when the music takes me
Closer to a brighter daaaay
I can feel my soul explodin'
There's a good feelin'
Helpin' me to find my waaay
My, my, my way

When the bluebird sings her sad, sad song
And the wind brings a cold to tag along
Oh, yeah,
I can feel the spirit move me
I can almost touch the sky
Reachin' for a new tomorrow
I know it's hard
But music makes me waaaaanna try
Wanna try
And then
That's when the music takes me
Takes to a brighter day
Yeah, yeah
That's when the music takes me
Helpin' me to find my way
(That's when the music takes me)
(That's when the music takes me)
Oh, yeah
But when the music takes me
Closer to a brighter day
I can feel my soul explodin'
There's a good feelin'
Helpin' me to fiiiiiiind my waaay
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And then I'm sayin'
That's when the music takes me
Takes to a brighter day
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That's when the music takes me
Helpin' me to find my way
(Clap)
Happy, happy, happy day
Happy, happy, happy day
Happy, happy, happy day
(That's when the music takes me)
(That's when the music takes me)
(That's when the music takes me)
(And that's when the music takes me)
Happy, happy when the music takes
Whooooooo

THE GIRL FOR ME

The way you hold me tight, the way you kiss good-night,
and every time we dance, my heart goes in a trance.
You're something special, oh so special,
you're the girl for me.

The way you fix your hair, the way you choose your clothes,
and every time you smile, your lovely dimple shows.
You're something special, oh so special,
you're the girl for me.

Anything you ask me, I will do,
anything at all I'll do for you.

The way you like to laugh at things we used to do,
and even when I'm sad, you make me happy too.
You're something special, oh so special,
you're the girl for me.

All my life I've been in love with you,
now you are here, I can't believe it's true.
I must be dreaming
when you say that you're in love with me.
In my dreams I've kissed your lips of wine,
now all at once I find you're really mine.
I must be dreaming
when you say that you're in love with me.
The way that I feel
is so heavenly, too good to be real.
When you're next to me I'm so afraid
that I'm fast asleep so don't wake me up,
let me dream if I'm dreaming.
Oh my love, each time I hold your hand,
everything is just the way I planned.
I must be dreaming
when you say that you're in love with me.

Down down down rudup do, let's go steady again
Down down down rudup do, let's go steady again

Let's go steady again like we did before
Let's go steady again and be lovers once more
Wear my ring around your neck like you used to do
Don't you know it's wrong to break
Come on baby let's kiss and make up

Let's go steady again like in the past
Let's show all of our friends that our love can last
I don't care who was wrong come back here where you belong
Come on baby let's go steady again

Monday, we said goodbye
Tuesday, all I did was cry
Wednesday, I almost lost my mind
Thursday, I was feeling blue
Friday, was the same way too
Never had a day sad as Saturday
Even Sunday was no fun day

Let's go steady again like we used to do
Say you're ready and then we can start anew
For seven days we didn't speak
It's been a long and lonely week
Come on baby let's go steady again
