"This next story is a true story. It concerns to of my favorite subjects: industrial theft . . . and-a t-ts! Mmm, what a combo! This is the story . . . The inventor of the modern foundation garment that we women wear today was a German scientist and opera lover by the name of Otto Titsling! This is a true story. His name was Otto Titsling. What happened to Otto Titsling shouldn't happen to a schnauzer. It's a very sad story. I feel i have to share it with you."
Otto Titsling, inventor and crout, had nothing to get very worked up about. His inventions were failures, his future seemed bleak. He fled to the opera at least twice a week. One night at the opera he saw an aida who's t-ts were so big they would often impede her. Bug-eyed he watched her fall into the pit, done in by the weight of those terrible t-ts. Oh, my god! There she blows! Aerodynamically this bitch was a mess. Otto eye-balled the diva lying comatose amongst the reeds, and he suddenly felt the fire or inspiration flood his soul. He knew what he had to do! He ran back to his workshop where he futzed and futzed and futzed. For Otto Titsling had found his quest: to lift and mold the female breast; to point the small ones to the sky; to keep the big ones high and dry! Every night he'd sweat and snort searching for the right support. He tried some string and paper clips. Hey! He even tried his own two lips! Well, he stiched and he slaved and he slaved and he stitched until finally one night, in the wee hours of morning, Otto arose from his workbench triumphant. Yes! He had invented the worlds first over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder. Hooray! Exhausted but ecstatic he ran down the street to the diva's house bearing the prototype in his hot little hand. Now, the diva did not want to try the darn thing on. But, after many initial misgivings, she finally did. And the sigh of relief that issued forth from the diva's mouth was so loud that it was mistaken by some to be the early onset of the Seraken Winds which would often roll through the Schwarzwald with a vengance! Ahhhhh-i! But little did Otto know, at the moment of his greatest triumph, lurking under the diva's bed was none other than the very worst of the french patentees, Phillip DeBrassiere. And Phil was watching the scene with a great deal of interest! Later that night, while our Broom Hilda slept, into the wardrobe Phillip softly crept. He fumbled through knickers and corsets galore, 'til he found Otto's titsling and he ran out the door. Crying, "Oh, my god! What joy! What bliss! I'm gonna make me a million from this! Every woman in the world will wanna buy one. I can have all the goods manufactures in Taiwan." "Oh, thank you!" The result of this swindle is pointedly clear: Do you buy a titsling or do you buy a brassiere? |

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep In dreams you will lose your heartache Whatever you wish for you keep Have faith in your dreams and someday, your rainbow will come shining through No matter how your heart is grieving If you just keep believing The dream that you wish will come true A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're feeling small. Alone in the night you whisper think no one can hear at all. You wake with morning sunlight to find fortune that smile on you. Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow for almost in tomorrow the dream you wish will come true. The dream is a wish your heart makes The dream is a wish your heart makes You wake with the morning sunlight to find fortune that smile on you. Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow for almost in tomorrow the dream you wish will come true. No matter how your heart is grieving If you just keep believing The dream that you wish will come true |

Look at my face. I know the years are showin'.
Look at my life. Still don't know where it's goin'. I don't know much, but I know I love you, and that may be all I need to know. Look at these eyes. Oh, they never see what matters. And look at these dreams, so beaten and so battered. I don't know much, but I know I love you, and that may be all I need to know. So many questions and still no answers. I climb and climb but never get the view. But when I hold you near me sometimes I feel so clearly the only truth I'll ever know is me and you. In my heart I long for inspiration. And in my soul I know someday I'll find salvation. I don't know much, but I know I love you, and that may be all I need to know. In my heart you're my inspiration. And in my soul I know love is our salvation. I don't kow much, but if I know you love me, that will be all I need to know. I don't know much, but if you say you love me, that will be all I need to know. |

All of a sudden all the past was behind me.
All of a sudden nothing stood to remind me. All of a piece I am awake and I can say. All of a sudden I am finding religion. All of a sudden all my sins are forgiven. Now all at once it is down to you and me. I see light over there at the end of the tunnel and I don't mind if it takes a little more time. Come over here, don't take your hand away. Come over here, take my breath away. Now is the time to say what you want to say. (It's not a dream, this is really happening.) All of a sudden, now baby, it's love. All of a little just isn't enough. All of a sudden, now baby, it's real. All of the riddle comes perfectly clear. All in a moment I was brought through the darkness. All in one motion like the sun through the forest. Oh, by the grace I am alive and I will live. All of a sudden I am cleared of confusion. All of my happiness is real, not illusion. So many years I had to seek so I could find. I see light over there at the end of the tunnel and I don't mind if it takes a little more time. Come over here, don't take your hand away. Come over here, take my breath away. Now is the time to say what you want to say. (It's not a dream, this is really happening.) All of a sudden, now baby, it's love. All of a little just isn't enough. All of a sudden, now baby, it's real. All of the riddle comes perfectly clear. Come over here, don't take your hand away. Come over here, and take my breath away.

All of a sudden. now baby, it's real. All of the riddle comes perfectly clear. All of a sudden, now baby, it's true. All of a sudden I believe in you. All of a sudden I'm fooling around. All of a sudden I know what I found. I know what I found. I know what I found. I know what I found. |

From your heart to mine I surrender every part of me To the tenderness Could it be the wine In your eyes stars shine And I'm feeling like a child again Oh, it's taken me a little time To find words to say Stay Make this forever And lay love in my life Come what may Cherish each moment of love As dreams go by If the first glow fades From the love we've made I will hold you closer In the night Under heart and key When there are hills to climb And your world won't rhyme I will fight until I get it right 'Cause you're part of me The heart of me Only if you'll stay Stay Make this forever And lay love in my life Come what may Cherish each moment of love As dreams go by The trees and the towers are burning Fear walks on the sea My soul in the wasteland is yearning What does tomorrow hold for me What can I say Just that I need you With you here by my side We can turn even the desert Evergreen, as dreams go by |

Baby mine, don't you cry.
Baby mine, dry your eyes. Rest your head close to my heart, never to part, baby of mine. Little one, when you play, pay no heed what they say. Let your eyes sparkle and shine, never a tear, baby of mine. If they knew all about you, they'd end up loving you, too. All those same people who scold you, what they'd give just for the right to hold you. From your head down to your toes, you're not much, goodness knows. But, you're so precious to me, sweet as can be, baby of mine. |

Dumping so early in the evening. I really didn't mean that. I really didn't mean that." Above the ground, I'm lifted to the sky, and down like a tumbling weed I found myself stranded high and dry. A circus ride, oh, it only costs a dime, but if you wanna see the fireworks you might have to pay a lifetime. 'Cause love is a carnival with lots of laughs, wonderful rides and danger. But it feels so good. With rockets shootin' in your head, 'round and 'round and 'round you go. Bang, you're dead, baby. Bang, you're dead, baby. Like a boomerang keeps twisting, twisting in your heart. You know the funny part of it is, you always end up where you start. You're headed for big clouds. Got the silver lining. But you're in for a big surprise. There's a river of tears behind it. 'Cause love is a carnival with lots of baubles, bangles and beads. Beware, beware, beware. It feels so good, feels so good. With rockets shootin' in your head, 'round and 'round and 'round you go. Bang, you're dead, baby. Bang, you're dead, baby. Above the ground I'm lifted. Spininng, spinning, spinning out of control.

Bed of Roses
by Bonnie Hayes from the album "Bette of Roses" Long, long ago, where the tall grass grows and the still air is sweet with summer flowers; in the shade by the stream I would lie awake and dream, and in dreaming I would while away the hours. Long, long gone yesterday, and the castle and the prince and the God to whom I prayed. Well, I made, and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses. I'm tired of trying to be free. Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Well, I wasted years, all the useless, bitter tears. If I'd known I'd have stopped it at the start. I knew life was long, and I knew life could go wrong, but I never knew my life would break my heart. Dreams die harder than pride. I have learned my lesson well. I will put them both aside. 'Cause I made and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses. I'm tired and I'm dying to be free. Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Roses die, and all the fairy tales are lies, and I guess that's just too bad for poor old me. 'Cause I made, and I'm gonna lie in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. |

Stop! Look! Listen! Listen to the Big Noise. Stop! Look! Listen! Listen to the Big Noise. I am the one they call the Big Noise. I got to dance my way to fame.

She'd say no to Ceaser. Teach me, why don't you teach me. Show me how to let go! There she goes 'round again, up and then down again, in and then out. Hooo! When Big Noise waltzes through the door the bouncer has to clear the floor, 'cause everybody wants to see the girl get down, the girl get down. And if you try to hold me tight, I'll disappear into the night. My lover's waiting home for me (she don't do that! She don't do that!)

Mmmmmm, you talk about you and only you
and the things that you do for you. You say you're not a lean cuisine. So I wanna see whatcha got on the menu. Now, if you think you're the man the only man with an exterior you feel is superior, just give Miss B a little peek and see if you really can deliver. Your tendencies are short, my expectations are long. And as I see it now, there's not much to go on. It seems you dug a hole that you can't crawl out. Now I truly see what you're all about. Don't brag about the diamond rings or the expensive clothes you wear, 'cause I could care less for what you possess and your attitude needs repair. Don't brag about your body, baby, and say that you're packin' a lot, 'cause all I see besides your big feet is that you got big socks. Let's just say that there's something lackin'. A flea shouldn't have the nerve to be braggin'. So pack up your little gift and get to steppin'. Return it back and put it in the kiddie section. Full figured in a place that can deliver? Ha ha, not from what I've seen. I can't trace what's below your waist. There's too much space to be inside those jeans. Don't brag about the diamond rings or the expensive clothes you wear, 'cause I could care less for what you possess and your attitude needs repair. Don't brag about your body, baby, and say that you're packin' a lot, 'cause all I see besides your big feet is that you got big socks. Bye bye, baby, bye bye. It's time to wave the white flag now that the kitten has been let out the bag. Don't brag about the diamond rings or the expensive clothes you wear, 'cause I could care less for what you possess and your attitude needs repair.

Come on blue! There is a party in your head. Be my friend and we will laugh 'til we turn red. Want to know why I picked you from the bunch?

So don't be flaky, come on, now, take me to your bakery. We'll be jamming, ovens slamming, the whole world will see. Blueberry Me! Without you there would be no berry pie. Tell me why you can't see you are necessary. Blueberry Pie, let's have fun, 'cause when all is said and done I love you, yes I do, 'cause, Blueberry, you're true blue!

I took a dive into your eyes
and I was in a sea of deep blue green emotion. Now in my dreams it often seems that you are moving me like tides moving the ocean. My heart hears you calling and I feel that I'm falling into a love that's deeper than blue, a bottomless love. Into the dreamy deep with you. Bottomless love. And as we lie I feel that I am floating in a stream of clear crystalline feeling. I want to wade into your waves and let them wash me clean. To hold you is so healing. My heart hears you calling and I know that I'm falling into a love that's deeper than blue, a bottomless love. Into the dreamy deep with you. Bottomless love. My sorrows washed away like rain, the lonely simple joys remain. Holy bliss, bottomless love. Into a love that's deeper than blue, a bottomless love. Dream. Into the dreamy deep with you. Bottomless love. Into a love that's deeper than blue, a bottomless love. Dream. Into the dreamy deep with you. Bottomless love. Dream. Woah-oh-oh. Bottomless love. Falling. Bottomless love. Picture of a dreamy deep with you. Bottomless love. Falling. Bottomless love. Yes, I've fallen, I've fallen, I've fallen in love with you. Bottomless love. Falling. Bottomless love. Woah-oh-oh. Bottomless love. Falling. Bottomless love |

Long, long ago, where the tall grass grows
and the still air is sweet with summer flowers; in the shade by the stream I would lie awake and dream, and in dreaming I would while away the hours. Long, long gone yesterday, and the castle and the prince and the god to whom I pray. Well, I made, and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses. I'm tired of trying to be free. Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Well, I wasted years, all the useless, bitter tears. If I'd known I'd have stopped it at the start. I knew life was long, and I knew life could go wrong, but I never knew my life would break my heart. Dreams die harder than pride. I have learned my lesson well. I will put them both aside. 'Cause I made and I'm gonna lie in this bed of roses. I'm tired and I'm dying to be free. Gonna lay down like a sigh in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Roses die, and all the fairy tales are lies, and I guess that's just too bad for poor old me. 'Cause I made, and I'm gonna lie in my bed of roses. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. Bed of roses I believed my life would be. |

Howard, the strangest things
have happened lately when I take a good swing and all my dreams they pivot and slip. I drop my fists and they're back, laughing. Howard, my intentions become not to lose what I've won. Ambition has given way to desperation and I, I've lost the fight from my eyes. Boxing's been good to me, Howard. Now I'm told, "You're growing old." The whole time we knew a couple of years I'd be through. Has boxing been good to you? Howard, now I confess I'm scared and lonely and tired. Everyone says I'm made of clay, that I've had my day, that I'm not cut out for this. I just know what to say. And I say, boxing's been good to me, Howard. Now I'm told, "You're growing old." The whole time we knew a couple of years I'd be through. Has boxing been good to you? Well, sometimes I punch myself hard as I can. Yelling, "nobody cares!" hoping someone will tell me how wrong I am, Howard. Boxing's been good to me, Howard. Now I'm told, "You're growing old." The whole time we knew a couple of years I'd be through. Has boxing been good, has boxing been good, has boxing been good? |

I held you close to me
once in a distant dream, far from the shores of my fear. I sailed on the ocean where all I imagined could happen, and now you are here. It's so hard to touch what is out of our hands, to know and to trust what the heart understands. Only the ones who believe ever see what they dream, ever dream what comes true. Life gives us magic and life brings us tragedy. Everyone suffers some loss. Still we have faith in it, childlike hope. There's a reason that outweighs the cost. And gravity throws all these rules in our way. And sometimes the sprit refuses to play. Only the ones who believe ever see what they dream, ever dream what comes true. And oh, love, turn me around in your arms. And in this dream we share let us not miss one kiss. And add my regrets to the tears in the rain for that's what the color of roses contain. Only the ones who believe ever see what they dream, ever dream, ever dream what comes true. |

All our loves are loved and lost. Our hearts all hung with rust. All the golden birds and lads all must, like chimney sweeps, come to dust. I'll pour a drink; adjust my TV, and stare at the shadows that stare out at me. I have no expectations, oh, but occasionally I need someone. You were someone. Come back, Jimmy dean. I need someone.

Actually it's not dirty at all, it's just a lot of kissing and mezzuzas. And er, one singular sub-plot, in which a woman who has an un-natural relationship with a Kreplach. I know there must be one or two of you out there, who haven't got the vaguest idea what the hell is a Kreplach, and to both of you I say... A Kreplach is a person from Kreplachia, which is a very small fishing nation wedged between Estonia and Latvia, You don't hear from them too much since the iron curtain fell! But every now and again, one or two Kreplach's manage to escape... But NEVER to Cleveland! (Audience Member:) YES! (Audeince Member:) Not True! What!? There we have one Kreplach. Who one Kreplach that managed to get to Cleveland! In fact, I venture to say that was the Kreplach that ate Cleveland! (Audience Member:) Are you sure!? No, Belle Barth used to say: 'Shut your hole honey, mines making money!' (Audience Member:) OH! Ooh, she didn't say that! I never said that, I didn't say that, I never said that! Oh did you hear the news!? You haven't heard the news, I must tell you the news, I am the harbinger of news here. I slept with Jack kennedy (Bette Laughs) You wanna know what else!? They slept with Jack Kennedy! (Points to the Harlette's) Talk about your bad pigs! Really. Oh, I'm sorry Girls. Oh my God, Oh God, Oh God, Alright, Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, Oh God, Alright, Alright, Alright! Please forgive me everyone! Please forgive me! Just a little yolk, Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke! |

You took me from my mother's lovin' arms.
I still had about a foot to grow. Whoa-ooh, I must have been only maybe seventeen. It was a very long time ago. Actually we raised each other; you, our kids and myself. You wait 'til you become a part of me, then you wanna put me on the shelf. Woah, that first kiss you gave me, I still remember. I was just a child, dear. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, I'll always remember. That was the first day we met. I remember what the preacher said: "Girl, will you be his wedded wife, (forever and ever) 'n' stand beside that boy forever, like for the rest of your natural life?" You took my darlin' babies from me! You really broke my heart in two! God in heaven knows that I love them! And in your heart you know it's true! Oh, that first kiss you gave me, I still remember. I was just a child. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, oh, I'll always remember. That was the first day we met. (Always remember. It's a kiss that I'll never forget.) I don't remember too much about my cradle days. Guess you could say I became a woman too fast. Whoa, what did I know? That you were the right man for me. What did I know? I knew that I loved that man! Whoa, that first kiss you gave me, oh-o-o, how I still remember! I was just a child, dear. Your lips were so warm and tender. That kiss, I will always remember, 'cause that was the first day we met. The first day we met, darlin', darlin', whoa, the first day we met. Whoa, I remember! Come back, baby, let's talk it over! Don't take your love away from me! Come back, baby. Oh, don't you wanna try it on one more time boy? Let's talk it over. Let's talk it over! Oh, how can I forget you? Branded me! Scarred by your love! That first kiss you gave me boy! |

Woke up this mornin'

When my bed gets empty, get to feelin' awful mean and blue. The springs are gettin' rusty sleepin' single like I do. I bought me a coffee grinder, the best one I could find. You know that I bought me a brand new coffee grinder, the best one I could find, so he could grind my coffee. Babe, I got a brand new grind. You gotta try, girl, you gotta try. He was a deep sea diver with a stroke that could not go wrong. Deep, deep sea, deep sea diver with a stroke that just could not go wrong. He could touch the bottom, and his wind held out so long. Oh, he boiled my cabbage, and he made it awful hot, mmmm. He boiled it, I got to tell you that he made it, made it awful hot. But when he slipped the bacon in, he overflowed the pot! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What a sweet man he was. I went and told my girlfriend Lou. Remember that old rag of a girl named Lou? Real sweet man. I went and told my girlfriend Lou. That way that girl is, baby, she must have had a piece of it, too. And now when you get good lovin', don't you, don't you spread the news. Don't you spread the news. When you get it and it's good, good, good, you really ought not to, you ought not to spread the news.

Never know how much I love you.
Never know how much I care. When you put your arms around me, I get a fever that's so hard to bear. You give me fever when you kiss me. Fever when you hold me tight. Fever in the morning. Fever all through the night. Sun lights up the daytime, And moon lights up the night. I light up when you call my name, And you know I'm gonna treat you right. You give me fever when you kiss me. Fever when you hold me tight. Fever in the morning, And fever all through the night. Everybody's got the fever. That is something you all know. Fever isn't such a new thing. Fever started long ago. Romeo loved Juliet. Juliet, she felt the same. When he put his arms around her, He said, "Julie, baby, you're my flame. Thou giveth fever when we kisseth. Fever with thy flaming youth. Fever, I'm afire. Fever, yeah, I burn, forsooth." Cap'n Smith and Pocahontas Had a very mad affair. When her daddy tried to kill him, She said, "Daddy, oh, don't you dare. He gives me fever with his kisses. Fever when he holds me tight. Fever, I'm his missus, So Daddy, won't you treat him right." Now you've listened to my story, Here's the point that I have made: Chicks were born to give you fever, Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade. They give you fever when you kiss them. Fever if you live and learn. Fever 'til you sizzle. What a lovely way to burn. What a lovely way to burn. What a lovely way to burn. What a lovely way to burn. |

Only one thing on their mind: fire down below. Whoa, here come the rich man in his big, long limousine. Here come the poor man, all you got to have is green. Here come the banker, lawyer and the cop. One thing's for certain, it's never gonna stop. When it all gets too heavy they come and they go. There they go. One thing on their mi-mi-mi-mind: fire down below. Whoa, there they go. One thing on their mi-mi-mi-mi-mind: fire down below. It happens out in Vegas, Moline, on the blue-blood streets of Boston, in Berkley, out in Queens. Went on yesterday, it's going on tonight. Somewhere there's somebody treatin' somebody right. I'm lookin' at The Rose. I'm lookin' mighty fine. I walk the streets, I'll find you any time. Where the street lights flicker, bringing on the night, I'll be slipping into darkness; Slippin' out of sight. Oh, through the midnight I come! I go! Only one thing on my my mind: fire down below. One thing on my my my mind: fire down below. Fire, fire, fire, hoo, hoo, hoo. One thing on my my mind: fire down below. |

I was walking down 42nd street one day,
I wasn't workin'42nd street I was walkin 42nd street. And this amazing thing happened to me. It was July it was about 89 degrees. It was hot, hot for New York You know and I was walking east and this humungous person was coming west. And she had this big blue house dress on peppered all over with little white daisies. She was almost bald but sitting on top of her head, forehead you know on her forehead was this fried egg. Which I thought was really unusual. Because in New York City the ladies with the fried eggs on their heads don't generally come out until September or October you know. Here was this lady this demented lady with a little fried egg on her head in the middle of July. God what a sight and ever, ever since I saw that lady not one day goes by that I don't think of her and I say to myself "Oh God, don't let me wake up tomorrow and want to put a fried egg on my head. Oh God." Then I say real fast I say "Oh God, If by chance I should wind up with a fried egg on my head"; cause sometimes you can't help those things you know, you can't. I say to myself "Don't let anybody notice." And then I say real fast after that "if they do notice that I'm carrying something that, that's not quite right and they want to talk about it, let 'em talk about it but don't let 'em talk so I can hear I don't want to hear it." Cause the truth about fried eggs, you can call it a fried egg, you can call it anything you like, but everybody gets one, some people wear 'em on the outside, some people they wear 'em on the inside. |

From a Distance - Bette Midler
From a distance the world looks blue and green, and the snow-capped mountains white. From a distance the ocean meets the stream, and the eagle takes to flight. From a distance, there is harmony, and it echoes through the land. It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace, it's the voice of every man. From a distance we all have enough, and no one is in need. And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease, no hungry mouths to feed. From a distance we are instruments marching in a common band. Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace. They're the songs of every man. God is watching us. God is watching us. God is watching us from a distance. From a distance you look like my friend, even though we are at war. From a distance I just cannot comprehend what all this fighting is for. From a distance there is harmony, and it echoes through the land. And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves, it's the heart of every man. It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves. This is the song of every man. And God is watching us, God is watching us, God is watching us from a distance. Oh, God is watching us, God is watching. God is watching us from a distance. |

Now I have nothing, so God give me strength,
'cause I'm weak anyway, and if I'm strong, I might still break. And I don't have anything to share that I won't throw away into the air. That song is sung out. This bell is rung out. He was the light that I'd bless. He took my last chance of happiness. So God give me strength. God give me strength. I can't hold on to him. God give me strength. When the phone doesn't ring and I'm lost in imagining everything that kind of love is worth as I tumble back down to the earth. That song is sung out. This bell is rung out. He was the light that I'd bless. He took my last chance of happiness. So God give me strength. God, if he'd grant me his indulgence and decline, I might as well wipe him from my memory. Fracture the spell as he becomes my enemy. And maybe I was washed out like a lip print on a shirt. See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt. I want him, I want him to hurt. Since I lost the power to pretend that there could ever be a happy ending. That song is sung out. This bell is rung out. He was the light that I'd bless. He took my last chance of happiness. So God give me strength. God give me strength. Oooooooh. Oooooh. Wipe him from my memory. Oooh. I got to him wipe him from my memory. Mmmm. Ooooooooh. |

It seem like happiness is just a thing called Joe.
He's got a smile that makes the lilacs want to grow. He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh When they know little Joe's passing by. Sometimes the cabin's gloomy and the table's bare, But then he'll kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere. Troubles fly away and life is easy go. Does he love me good? That's all I need to know. Seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe. Sometimes the cabin's gloomy and the table's bare, But then he'll kiss me and it's Christmas everywhere. Troubles fly away and life is easy go.

He's a tramp, but I love him.
Breaks a new heart every day. He's a tramp. They adore him. And I only hope he'll stay that way. He's a tramp, he's a scoundrel, He's a rounder, he's a cad. He's a tramp, but I love him. Yes, and even I have got it pretty bad. You can never tell when he'll show up. He gives you plenty of trouble. I guess he's just a no account pup, But I wish that he were double. He's a tramp, he's a rover, And there's nothing more to say. If he's a tramp, he's a good one, And I wish that I could travel his way. |

But the next thing that I knew, I was heart over head over heart over head over you. It's too late to stop it now. I'm heart over head over heart over head over you. I never once imagined a night like this before, that love would last for hours, and still I begged for more. If I sound a little crazy, well, forgive me, please. My head is swimmin' and I'm on my knees cryin', "Love me, love me, do!" Because I'm heart over head over heart over head over you. Too late to stop it now. I'm heart over head over heart over head over you. Oh, I'm heart over head over heart over head over you. Where did you get your touch? I'm heart over head over heart over head over you.

Hurry on down to my house, honey,
ain't nobody home but me. Hurry on down to my house, baby. Oh, I'm blue as I can be. I love you. You love me. A-hurry through the alley so the neighbors don't see. Hurry on down to my house, honey, ain't nobody home but me. Oooh. hurry on down to my house, baby, ain't nobody home but me. Hurry on down to my house, baby. I'm blue as I can be. Oh, blue when the clock a-went tick-tock-tick. ooh, c'mon, honey, quick, quick, quick. Hurry on down to my house, baby, ain't nobody home but me. Say, hurry, hurry, a-nobody's home. Hurry on down, baby, I'm blue as I can be. Oh, please come down just as soon as you can. If you don't come down, I got to call Sam! You know the man is crazy about me. Ain't nobody home but me . . . ow! "Well, what's goin' on with the three of yous? C'mon, c'mon, make it snappy. C'mon, c'mon, work out, work out! Go, babe, get down, get down! Oh, lord! Nobody's home!" Say, hurry on down to my house, baby, ain't nobody home. Haul it down, drag it down, any way to get it down. I'm blue as I can be. Ashes-to-ashes. Dust-to-dust. C'mon, honey, you must, you must! Hurry on down to my house, baby, ain't nobody home but me. Hurry, hurry. A-nobody's home. Haul it down and drag it down. You know I can't stand to be alone. Operator, get me hillside, 409. A-don't stop ringin' 'til you get that baby's line! He's gonna haul it down! Ain't nobody home but, you believe it, there's nobody home but me! Wo! |

from Bette Midler - Bette Of Roses (1995)
Well I don't believe in superstars,
in fancy food or foreign cars; that Hagen Dazs and motherhood have done my body any good; that Elvis is alive and well; that courtesy has gone to hell; that kindness is in short supply; that little kids should have to die. But I believe in love. I believe in dreamers. I believe in miracles and I believe in you. Well, I don't believe virginity is as common as it used to be; that left is wrong and right is right; that black is black and white is white; that the Beatles could be history, the sixties just a memory; that war will never go away; that Johnny Carson's had his day. But I believe in love. I believe in angels. I believe in Mom and Dad and I believe in you. I know with almost certainty what's going on with you and me is a good thing. I know it's true. I believe in you. Now, I don't believe that heaven waits for only those who congregate. I like to think that God is love. He's down below, He's up above, and He's watching people everywhere. He knows who does and doesn't care. And I'm an ordinary girl trying to make my way in this old world. And I believe in love. Yes, I believe in music. I believe in promises and I believe in you. Well, I know with almost certainty what's going on with you and me is a good thing, a good thing. And I know it's true. I believe in you. You know, darlin', that I believe in love. Yes, I believe in dreamers. I believe in miracles and I believe in you. Woah-ho-ho-oh, baby, I believe. Yes, I believe. I believe in promises and I believe in you. Woah, come on, baby, say you believe in love. Say you believe in dreamin'. Believe in blue, blue skies, 'cause I believe in you . . . |

from Bette Midler - Songs For The New Depression (1995)
And I don't want,
I, I don't want, I don't want the night to end. Oh, daddy, daddy. Oh, daddy, daddy. Wastin' half my life on platforms underground, the other half I'm spending as a desperate clown. My problem now is that you're nowhere to be found. In dark delicious dreams of you I'll drown. Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-hi. Oh, daddy. Oh, daddy. Ooooooooh. Oh, daddy. Oh, daddy. I don't want the night to end. Oh, baby, baby. Ohhhhh, my sweet baby. Wrapped around your soul is where I want to be. But even in the night, blue music. All my eyes can see: Junkies in the rain, down on their knees. Tell me, what's to become of you and me? Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Don't let it be, don't let it be over. No, no, don't let it be, don't let it be. I don't want the night to end. I don't want the night to end. I don't want the night to end. Mmmm, say it again, now. I don't want, don't want the night to end. Don't let it be, don't let it be, don't let it be over. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't want it to be over. Baby, I'm a soul to lend. I'm all, all alone. I don't want the night to end. Oh, mommy, mommy, I am falling. |

from Bette Midler - Bette Of Roses (1995)
I know these streets and these backyards,
this barn that's falling down. We come to where they're building now and ride our bikes around. You think I'm just a little kid, some troubles on the way. but I knew this place before you did is all I've got to say. I'm only walking through these streets and all around. I'm only walking. I know this town. We come home through these fields at night about a million times. I'd walk the road with my eyes closed and all the paths besdies. And I know the boy who broke this fence, and I know his brother, too. And they's never give me half a chance if I let on to you. I'm only walking through these streets and all around. I'm only walking. I know this town. We dam the streams, we raid the shacks, and hide in boxcars on the tracks. We know these quarries in our sleep and where they're cold and where they're deep. I'll go down to the bowling alley and buy smokes and Dentyne. I find some loose change every day under that Coke machine. You check me out as you drive by like there was some big deal. But I know so much you'll never find from there behind the wheel. I'm only walking through these streets and all around. I'm only walking. I know this town. |

Bette: Everybody wants to find a love,
somebody, somebody who will always care. But we get locked up in our own worlds, with feelings and secrets we're afraid to share.
