So long ago
Was it in a dream, was it just a dream? I know, yes I know Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me Took a walk down the street Thru the heat whispered trees I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear) Somebody call out my name as it started to rain Two spirits dancing so strange Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Dream, dream away Magic in the air, was magic in the air? I believe, yes I believe More I cannot say, what more can I say? On a river of sound Thru the mirror go round, round I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel) Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold The spirit dance was unfolding Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé Ah! böwakawa poussé, poussé |

Bless you wherever you are
Windswept child on a shooting star Restless Spirits depart Still we're deep in each other's hearts Some people say it's over Now that we spread our wings But we know better darling The hollow ring is only last year's echo Bless you whoever you are Holding her now Be warm and kind hearted And remember though love is strange Now and forever our love will remain |

I got a girl named Bony Moronie,
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni, Ought to see her rock 'n' roll with her blue jeans on, She's not very fat just skin and bone. But I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree. I told her mama and her papa too, Just exactly what I want to do, I want to get married on a night in June, And rock and roll by the light of a silvery moon, And I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree. She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire, She's a real upsetter, she's a real live wire, Everybody turns when my baby walks by, She's something to see, she really catches the eye. That's why I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree. That's why I love her, she loves me, All are happy now we can be, Making love underneath the apple tree. |

We're born in a prison
Raised in a prison Sent to a prison called school We cry in a prison We love in a prison We dream in a prison like fools Wood becomes a flute when it's loved Reach for yourself and your battered mates Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate We live with no reason Kicked around for no reason Thrown out without reason like tools We work in a prison And hate in a prison And die in a prison as a rule Wood becomes a flute when it's loved Reach for yourself and your battered mates Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate We live in a prison Among judges and wardens And wait for no reason for you We laugh in a prison Go through all four seasons And die with no vision of truth Wood becomes a flute when it's loved Reach for yourself and your battered mates Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate |

Do you think that I will sit and cry? Even if my heart should tell me so Darling, I would rather let you go Woo-ooh hoo It's too late, darling. You just gotta say goodbye. Why, the last time I saw you, you were wearing man's clothes. Not that I'm prejudiced, but you know. ??? But who am I to hassle you like this? I'm just gonna have to let you go. There's two basses in this. I hope you appreciate it. This is Doctor Winston O'Boogie saying goodnight from Record Plant East, New York. We hope you had a swell time. Everybody here says hi. Goodbye. Just because you left and said goodbye Do you think that I will sit and cry? Even if my heart should tell me so Darling, I would rather let you go Ooh-ooh-hoo, goodbye Ooh-hoo, so long Been a long year |

Standing on the corner
Just me and Yoko Ono We was waiting for Jerry to land Up come a man with a guitar in his hand Singing, "Have a marijuana if you can" His name was David Peel And we found that he was real He sang, "The Pope smokes dope every day" Up come a policeman shoved us up the street Singing, "Power to the people today!" New York City...New York City...New York City Que pasa, New York? Que pasa, New York? Well down to Max's Kansas City Got down the nitty gritty With the Elephants Memory Band Laid something down As the news spread around About the Plastic Ono Elephants Memory Band! And we played some funky boogie And laid some tutti frutti Singing, "Long Tall Sally's a man." Up come a preacherman trying to be a teacher Singing, "God's a red herring in drag!" New York City...New York City...New York City Que pasa, New York? Que pasa, New York? New York City...New York City...New York City Que pasa, New York? Que pasa, New York? Well we did the Staten Island Ferry Making movies for the telly Played the Fillmore and Apollo for freedom Tried to shake our image Just a cycling through the Village But found that we had left it back in London Well nobody came to bug us Hustle us or shove us So we decided to make it our home If the Man wants to shove us out We gonna jump and shout The Statue of Liberty said, "Come!" New York City...New York City...New York City Que pasa, New York? Que pasa, New York? New York City...back in New York City...New York City Que pasa, New York? Que pasa, New York? |

Nobody loves you when you're down and out,
Nobody sees you when you're on cloud nine. Ev'rybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime, I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine. Well, i've been across to the other side, I've shown you ev'rything, i got nothing to hide. But still you ask me, do i love you? What it is? What it is? All i can show you is it's all show biz, All i can tell you is it's all show biz. Nobody loves you when you're down and out, Nobody knows you when you're on cloud nine. Ev'rybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime, I'll scratch your back and you knife mine. Been across the water now so many times, I've seen the one-eyed witchdoctor leading the blind. But still you ask me, do i love you? What you say? What you say? Ev'ry time i put my finger on it, it slips away, Ev'ry time i put my finger on it, it slips away. What you say? What you say? What you say? Well, i get up in the morning And i'm looking in the mirror to see, oo-wee! Then i'm lying in the darkness And i know i can't get to sleep, oo-wee! Nobody loves you when you're old and grey, Nobody needs you when you're upside down. Ev'rybody's hollerin' 'bout their own birthday, Ev'rybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground |

Not a soldier boy was bleeding When they nailed the coffin lids! Sunday bloody Sunday Bloody Sunday's the day! You claim to be majority Well you know that it's a lie You're really a minority On this sweet emerald isle When Stormont bans our marches They've got a lot to learn Internment is no answer It's those mothers' turn to burn! Sunday bloody Sunday Bloody Sunday's the day! Sunday bloody Sunday Bloody Sunday's the day! You anglo pigs and scotties Sent to colonize the North You wave your bloody Union Jack And you know what it's worth! How dare you hold to ransom A people proud and free Keep Ireland for the Irish Put the English back to sea! Sunday bloody Sunday Bloody Sunday's the day! Well, it's always bloody Sunday In the concentration camps Keep Falls Road free forever From the bloody English hands Repatriate to Britain All of you who call it home Leave Ireland to the Irish Not for London or for Rome!
