Yeah, said it's all right I won't forget All the times I've waited patiently for you And you'll do just what you choose to do And I will be alone again tonight my dear Yeah, I heard a funny thing Somebody said to me You know that I could be in love with almost everyone I think that people are The greatest fun And I will be alone again tonight my dear Yeah, I heard a funny thing Somebody said to me You know that I could be in love with almost everyone I think that people are The greatest fun And I will be alone again tonight my dear
At my house I’ve got no shackles You can come and look if you want to In the halls you’ll see the mantles Where the light shines dim all around you And the streets are paved with gold and if Someone asks you, you can call my name You are just a thought that someone Somewhere somehow feels you should be here And it’s so for real to touch To smell, to feel, to know where you are here And the streets are paved with gold and if Someone asks you, you can call my name You can call my name I hear you calling my name yeah all right now By the time that I’m through singing The bells from the schools of walls will be ringing More confusions, blood transfusions The news today will be the movies for tomorrow And the water’s turned to blood, and if You don’t think so Go turn on your tub And it it’s mixed with mud You’ll see it turn to gray And you can call my name I hear you call my name
And if you'll see Andmoreagain Then you will know Andmoreagain For you can see you in her eyes Then you feel your heart beating Thrum-pum-pum-pum And when you've given all you had And everything still turns out Bad, and all your secrets are your own Then you feel your heart beating Thrum-pum-pum-pum And I'm Wrapped in my armor But my things are material And I'm Lost in confusions Cause my things are material And you don't know how much I love you Oh, oh, oh... And if you'll see Andmoreagain Then you might be Andmoreagain For you just wish and you are here Then you feel your heart beating Thrum-pum-pum-pum And I'm Wrapped in my armor But my things are material And I'm
In the morning we arise and Start the day the same old way As yesterday the day before and All in all it's just a day like All the rest so do your best with Chewing gum and it is oh so Repetitious Waiting on the sun Down on Go-stop Boulevard it Never fails to bring me down The sirens and the accidents and For a laugh there's Plastic Nancy She's real fancy with her children They'll go far, she Buys them toys to Keep in practice Waiting on the war I feel shivers in my spine When the iceman, yes his ice is melting Won't be there on time Hope he finds a rhyme For his little mind I can see you With no (hands) (face) Eyes I need you You're my (heart) (face) Look we're going round and round
I once knew a man Been everywhere in the world Gave me a tiny ivory ball Said it would bring me good Never believed it would until I have been loving you Dear old man He'd seen most everything Gave me a piece of good advice Said it would do me well I couldn't really tell until I have been loving you Now it seems Things are not so strange I can see more clearly Suddenly I've found my way I know the old man would laugh He spoke of love's sweeter days And in his eloquent way I think he was speaking of you You are so lovely You didn't have to say a thing But I remember that old man Telling me he'd seen the light Gave me a small brown leather book Insisted that he was right I only heard him slightly Til I heard you whisper Took you up all in my arms Dear old man Wise old man Fine old man, now
Sitting on a hillside Watching all the people die I’ll feel much better on the other side I’ll thumb a ride I believe in magic Why, because it is so quick I don’t need power when I’m hypnotized Look in my eyes What are you seeing (I see...) How do you feel? I feel real phony when my name is Phil Or was that Bill? Life goes on here Day after day I don’t know if I am living or if i’m Supposed to be Sometimes my life is so eerie And if you think I’m happy Paint me white I’ve been here once I’ve been here twice I don’t know if the third’s the fourth or if the - The fifth’s to fix Sometimes I deal with numbers And if you wanna count me Count me out I don’t need the time of day Anytime with me’s ok I just don’t want you using up my time cause that’s not right Ahh.... Ahh.... Ahh.... They’re locking them up today They’re throwing away the key I wonder who it’ll be tomorrow, you or me? They’re locking them up today They’re throwing away the key I wonder who it’ll be tomorrow, you or me? They’re locking them up today They’re throwing away the key I wonder who it’ll be tomorrow, you or me? We’re all normal and we want our freedom Freedom... freedom... freedom... freedom Freedom... I want my freedom... all god’s children gotta have their freedom freedom... freedom I want my freedom I want my freedom yeah yeah
What is happening and how have you been Gotta go but I'll see you again And oh, the music is so loud And then I fade into the... Crowds of people standing everywhere Cross the street I'm at this slop affair And here they always play my songs And me, I wonder if it's... Wrong or right they come here just the same Telling everyone about their games And if you think it obsolete Then you go back across the street Yeah, street, hey hey When I leave now don't you weep for me I'll be back, just save a seat for me But if you just can't make the room Look up and see me on the... Moon's a common scene around my town Yeah where everyone is painted brown And if we do get stuck away Let's go paint everybody gray Yeah, gray, yeah
Oh, the snot has caked against my pants It has turned into crystal There's a bluebird sitting on a branch I guess I'll take my pistol I've got it in my hand Because he's on my land And so the story ended Do you know it oh so well Well should you need I'll tell you The end-end-end-end-end-end-end-end And... Yes I've seen you sitting on the couch I recognize your artillery I have seen you many times before Once when I was an Indian And I was on my land Why can't you understand And so the story ended Do you know it oh so well Well should you need I'll tell you The end-end-end-end-end-end-end-end And... Served my time Served it well You made my soul A cell Write the rules In the sky But ask your leaders Why Why Oh, the snot has caked against my pants It has turned into crystal There's a bluebird sitting on a branch I guess I'll take my pistol I've got it in my hand Because he's on my land And so the story ended Do you know it oh so well Well should you need I'll tell you The end-end-end-end-end-end-end-end And... Served my time Served it well You made my soul A cell
Hummingbirds hum Why do they hum, little girls wearing Pigtails in the morning, in the morning la da da, da da da da Merry-go-rounds Are going around in and all over The town in the morning, in the morning la da da, da da da da Summertime's here And look over there, flowers every- Where in the morning, in the morning la da da, da da da da
Well I remember when you used to look so good And I did everything that I possibly could for you We used to ride around all over town But they're puttin' you down for bein' around with me But you can go ahead if you want to Cause I ain't got no papers on you In the middle of the summer I had a job bein' a plumber Just to pass till the fall it was you I wanna ball all day Ah-we were walkin' along, honey, hand in hand I'm a-thinkin' of you, mama, when you're thinkin' of another man But you can go ahead if you want to Cause I ain't got no papers on you No, I don't I ain't got no papers on myself All alone on the bone when I didn't have a home When I saw the way I was and I knew where I was supposed to be I was twitchin' so I turned and it's really hard to learn That everyone I saw was just another part of me But you can go ahead if you want to Cause nobody's got no papers on you No, babe, it's just a falsehood
Where are you walking, I've seen you walking Have you been there before? Walk down your doorsteps, you'll take some more steps What did you take them for? There's a private in my boat and he wears Pins instead of medals on his coat There's a chicken in my nest and she won't Lay until I've given her my best At her request she asks for nothing You get nothing in return If you want she brings you water If you don't then you will burn You go through changes, it may seem strange Is this what you're put here for? You think you're happy and you are happy That's what you're happy for There's a man who can't decide if he should Fight for what his father thinks is right There are people wearing frowns who'll screw you up But they would rather screw you down At my request I ask for nothing You get nothing in return If you're nice she'll bring me water If you're not then I will burn This is the time and life that I am living And I'll face each day with a smile For the time that I've been given's such a little while And the things that I must do consist of more than style There are places that I am going This is the only thing that I am sure of And that's all that lives is gonna die And there'll always be some people here to wonder why And for every happy hello, there will be good-bye There'll be time for you to put yourself on Everything I've seen needs rearranging And for anyone who thinks it's strange Then you should be the first to want to make this change And for everyone who thinks that life is just a game Do you like the part you're playing I see your picture It's in the same old frame We meet again You look so lovely You with the same old smile Stay for a while I need you so, oh, oh, oh, oh And if you take it easy I'm still teethin' I wanna love you, but Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh This is the time and life that I am living And I'll face each day with a smile For the time that I've been given's such a little while And the things that I must do consist of more than style There'll be time for you to start all over This is a time this is a time in ages a time time time
When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in a can In my lonely room I'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone You can throw me if you wanna 'cause I'm a bone and I go Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip yeah! If I don't start cryin' it's because that I have got no eyes My father's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way Trapped inside a night but I'm a day and I go Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!
I'd like to understand just why I feel like I have been through hell When you tell me I haven't even started yet To live here you've got to give more than you get That I know But they said it's all right I'd like to understand today Then maybe I would know who I was When I was when it was yesterday The seasons and the reason are on display And I know Oh... Oh... Oh.. So many people They just seem to clutter up my mind And if it's mine throw it away Throw it again once for my girl...friend La da-da da-da-da-da da da La da-da da-da-da-da da da-da da-da-da-da So many voices Don't let them stop between my ears But it appears that there they are Though they are wrong ten thousand strong, oh, yeah I'm lockin' my heart in the closet I don't need anyone, oh no no no You find me behind the door And all of the far-out faces From long ago, I can't erase this
Sometimes I feel so lonely My comedown I'm scared to face I've pierced my skin again, Lord No one cares For me My soul belongs to the dealer He keeps my mind as well I play the part of the leecher No one cares For me, cares for me Look out Joe, I'm fallin' I can't unfold my arms I've got one foot in the graveyard No one cares For me, cares for me
I just got out my little red book The minute that you said goodbye I thumbed right through my little red book I wasn't gonna sit and cry And I went from A to Z I took out every pretty girl in town They danced with me and as I held them All I did was talk about you Hear your name and I'd start to cry There's just no getting over you... oh, no... There ain't no girl in my little red book Who could ever replace your charms And each girl in my little red book Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of Oh won't you please come back Without your precious love I can't go on Where can love be I need you so much All I did was talk about you Hear your name and I'd start to cry There's just no getting over you... oh, no... Oh won't you please come back Without your precious love I can't go on It's haunting me I need you so much All I did was talk and talk about you Hear your name and I'd start to cry There's just no getting over you All I did was talk and talk about you Hear your name and I'd start to cry There's just no getting over you... oh no
