I don't know how This whole business started Of you thinkin' that I had been untrue
But if you think that We'd be better parted It's gonna hurt me but I'll break away from you
Well, just give me the sign And I will be gone, yeah
That's how much I feel Feel for you baby How much I need I need your touch How much I live I live for your lovin' That's how much That's how much That's how much That's how much, ooh
Sleep alone and Late at night I'm dreamin' Of the togetherness That seems to be leavin' me
Oh no, I'd give it all and Then I'd, give some more If you would only love me Like you had before
Oh, take hold of my hand And all will be forgiven
That's how much I feel Feel for you baby How much I need I need your touch How much I live I live for your lovin' That's how much That's how much That's how much That's how much
So you try Try to stay in the middle And then you cry Well, you cry just a little Then we both realize Just how foolish you've been Ooh, and you try to make amends But you're better off as friends
'Cause that's how much That's how much That's how much That's how much, ooh
How's your life been goin' on? I got a wife now Years we've been going strong
Oh no, there's just something That I got to say Sometimes when we make love I still can see your face Ooh, just try to recall When we were as one, yeah
That's how much I feel Feel for you baby How much I need I need your touch How much I live I live for your loving That's how much That's how much
Babe, it took a long, long time to get it out this way Now, that the hurtin's over all I've got to say (is) that I know Sure as I am living It takes more than forgiving 'cause it ain't been easy I know you did your best to please me
How can you love me, After all the years we've tried After all the tears you've cried After our love has died
Babe, I've seen some pretty faces everywhere I go I say now Maybe I ain't the same person that you used to know
But I know In my heart I'm livin' For the love you've given And the foolish thing about it Is that I thought I'd live without it
How can you love me When you know I've been with someone else And I ain't too happy with myself But I keep on comin' back around
Ooh, sometimes it feels like I'm gone forever (I'm gone forever) Ooh, it gets so hard to wait (it gets hard to wait) Ooh, we're far away and it ain't gettin' better Well, I know that somethin' is surely wrong When I feel this way, well I can't go on and on
Nothing's complete Before every chain is linked And your mind wasn't meant To be sold out in the street
You are wearing a disguise It reveals you when you cry Does it hurt you when you try?
Can I help you? Could I reach you? Tell me now because We need you too
Don't let worries be Oh your walls against your being You can climb them What's beyond is surely worth your seeing
You are wearing a disguise It reveals you when you cry Does it hurt you when you try? Can I help you? Could I reach you? Tell me now because We need you too
Where do you think you're goin'? Dressin' like some evening tramp? What do you think you're doin'? Well, you got them talkin' behind my back
It must be something I can't relate It's enough to drive a man from his mind So get back home before it's too late How could you up and just walk out of my life?
I can't let a woman like you get to my head I can't let a woman like you get to my head
What do you think you're doin' ? Well I told you not to leave anymore Where do you think you're going? Come on, get your fingers off of that door
It must be something I can't relate It's enough to drive a man from his mind So get back home before it's too late How could you up and just walk out of my life?
I can't let a woman like you get to my head I can't let a woman like you get to my head
I've waited all my life For someone like you Waited all my life Is there something that I could do...
I can't let a woman like you get to my head I can't let a woman like you get to my head
Until I met you baby I only played with the band But when I play my polonaise now On my piano grand
I can't help but thinkin' Of our first one night stand When my precious hands were tinkling On my little georgie sand
Come on and danse with me george
The pants you're wearing mama And the cigar in your hand Sorta put me off at first I didn't understand
But now I love my vichy mama I adore you and I wouldn't ever leave you baby For another man
Come on and danse with me george
You know your lips can spout quotations But when your hips start their gyrations They can thaw valley forge Danse with me george
The memoirs of a mademoiselle Far ahead of her time Has left us all a legend That's never gonna die
To say your ways were novel Would be a lousy pun But of late I've been feelig awful I want to have me some fun
So come on Put your pen aside baby Come on Your lips are driving me crazy
We could talk this out I'm sure If you would just shut your mouth So come on, So come on, Da, da, da danse with me george
Well your lips can spout quotations (waltzin', minuet, mazurka) But when your hips start their gyrations (doin' it 'till we're beserka) They could thaw valley forge Danse with me george
Le danse
The legend that you leave us is never gonna die.....
Leaping quick on leopard's back I face the brunt of his attack In the land of nod I'm king Until the alarm clock rings
Stepping out from safety's door I hear the rushing traffic roar Smiling to myself I say, "...Hooray its a brand new day"
Slashing my way through vine I'll kill if I have to I'll be there on time Clawed through the freeway jam I curse at the guy who passed me Last time 'round
In my office settled back Drink a cup of coffee (black) Stretch my mind and try'n erase The thought of the day to face
Life is like the leopard's den And once you find you've fallen in A safari of the heart Surely comes to an end
Madness is our damnation Strange is the situation we're all in To one man it matters nothing Others it shatters something; no one wins
I could not see it myself (Though I'd read about it) I could not hear it myself (Though I'd heard about it) I could not feel it myself (Though I knew that it was real)
I could not hear it myself (Don't you lie about it) I could not feel it myself (But don't you cry about it)
For there's an animal in us all The brunt of which you'll see
Sometimes I feel That we've been herded like sheep We've been led out like lambs to the slaughter And empty souls Have kept the downtrodden down And took the best and left us the fodder
Still in my heart I feel such purpose A reason for being alive And I want to know, I want to know
Sometimes it seems There was meant to be more Than this rush and this battle to living And there's the times We've all tasted the space That you know when we feel that we're giving
So take some time to think about this I'm blinded now, I'd like to see And I want to know, I want to know
I want to see through all the barriers That were created before I was born Were they put out there just to guide me Or keep the weak from becoming strong
I want to know, I want to know
Still in my heart I feel such purpose A reason for being alive And I want to know
Sometimes I fear That all men are asleep Must we shout to awake those that slumber?
But if you can want love You can hide All the memories inside And It won't take more Than you can give Just to find a way to live And As soon as you Can look around There's a new love to be found
Someone talks about a road At the end find life's gold
I went out to get a drink of water But I saw an ocean far away I thought of how much beyond awaits me Foolishly I turned my head the other way
Do you like where you're livin' at? I'm not happy inside You could build a golden house Yeah but still I'm sad inside
I set out on a long and lonely journey And travelled through some strange and distant lands And many times I thought I'd found life's meaning But it slipped away like water in the sand
Do you like where you're livin' at? I'm not happy inside You could build a golden house And still I'm sad inside
One summer storm, I'm waitin' for the sun One summer storm, I've waited so long Waited so long Yeahhhhhhhh!
In our lives, we've all drank of the water Heard the ocean callin' out our names Some will seek and find their life's meaning And some will turn their heads the other way...
The clock gets to be such a bore What'cha livin' for
Though I can't explain, being sane's Just a dreary chore I'd like to go fly past mountains See Mama Frog at her fountain
She'll be there in her golden frog Sequined uniform Golden chair, three trained human clowns Who will soon perform Balancing books with their heads Trying to recall what they've said
Past the gate you will soon be in A garden paradise Don't be late there, the shining jewels Sparkle in your eyes All waiting there for your pleasure What's keeping you from this treasure?
Narration of "Jabberwock" from "Alice In Wonderland"
'Twas brillig and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch ?Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumlous Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand: Long time the manxome foe he sought ?So rested he by the Tumtum tree, And stood awhile in thought.
And as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" He chortled in his joy.
'Twas brillig and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble In the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves And the mome raths outgrabe
The clock gets to be such a bore What'cha livin' for Though I can't explain, being sane's Just a dreary chore
I'd like to go fly past mountains See Mama Frog at her fountain
Pale to the mountains my existence seems Sad as the cry of my unanswered dreams Long have I waited for time to make clear All of the reasons that I must be here
But I won't care If you are there Make us all aware
Drawn by the river we watch as it flows Wanting to taste of the wisdom it holds Knowing that somewhere our fortunes we'll find But fortunes are something we hold in our minds
We could share All that's there Make us all aware
Seeking an answer yet harboring fear That the day that it comes I'll no longer be here
But I won't care If you are there I won't care Make us all Oh, I won't care Make us all aware
I've never been a thief, but I won't say I'll never steal I've never been a star, but that doesn't mean I don't appeal I always read the Bible, but too seldom do I kneel Well I disregard the writing and I play just what I feel
So what do I care? Why should I care? All I really want is something more than you can order From a telephone, if they call I'm not at home So write it off as another loss And let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone
I've been a truthful man, but I won't say I've never lied I've always had a plan, but somehow it never was applied Never got my share of lovin', I've always been denied I ain't greedy, but I aim to take what rightfully is mine
All I really want is something that I do not have to share Hide it under lock and key so they'll never see Or they'll never know And let someone else be responsible And let the world leave me alone
People try to tell me I'm a dreamer Wastin'everybody else's time Movin' all around I'm just a schemer Gettin' into everybody's way
Let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone Let the world leave me alone World leave me alone
Ain't nobody out there, just me and you It's one on one, just we two I got somethin' like a heartbeat Only you control And I'm up as far as I can bear to go
This is the road so welcome home Where nothing real abounds There is no reason we must wait Let's take these pleasures now
Now...
Ain't nobody out there gonna disagree We're all hiding something under lock 'n' key You don't like it but you just can't stop (but) keep your screws on tight We'll undo all that's been done to you tonight
This is the place it all begins There's no time to back down There is no reason to pretend Just take these pleasures now
