1.Thats
That's oh! come now boys don't give me that
I've had it all before
If not inside my overcoat hanging outside my door
A silver plaque in prussian blue
Bears these few words upon
Don't ever say that that's okay
Cos that's where i come from
Now if you don't and i know you won't
Understand what that means
The answers obviously to look
In midsummer night's dreams
Where if he will permit you to
You'll see how it begun
But please don't say that that's okay
Cos that's where i come from
And.. if you ask me why we multiply
I'll tell you when divided
Two from two leaves
But please don't say that that's okay
Cos that's where i come from
And if some day she should want to stay
On our mum's kitchen floor
Providing he's not under age
I see no reason for
Me to go out without a doubt, as he'll be moving on
Never to say that that's okay
Cos that's where i come from
That's where i come
That's where i come
That's where i come
And the needle isn't stuck
2.When Today
When i call you will you tell me what to do
Cos i've reached a point where i depend on you
To supply me and rewind me every time that i go down
On the ground i see a face
It reminds me of a place i used to go
With you when i was a boy of seventeen
At least i think it was, if not somewhere between
That amount of fun i've not got
A lot of time to spare
Everywhere there's people staring
They think i am wearing funny clothes
Who knows, where i can go
For a meal there's a real restaurant in town
Who knows, where i can go
For a meal there's a real restaurant in town
I can see you looking through your little hole
In a wall just twice the thickness of the sole
On my shoe, i'm telling you you'd better all that i said
And be ready to go away
Anytime today
3.Shy
Oh, every time i pass you i'm
Inclined to look away
I don't know why, but some day
I will turn my head and say
Excuse me miss, but this glove is
It the one that you've just dropped
And you'll reply by saying f course
or in as many words et lost i've never been successful
I mean with girls of my own age
They like the food and the wines i choose
But after that i'm afraid
That in the art of making love
I'm really so naive it's not true
I usually pretend i'm too tired
And then fall asleep as proof
And by the sound of things
It looks as though i'm doomed
To spend the rest of my life living in one room
Dreaming of how one cold and windy night quite cooly
Sophia loren seduced me
My name is john, i twenty one
I drive a ford cortina estate
If you'd care to join me in my room
I'll show you my license plate
4.That's Why I Love You
When i look back on yesterday
And all the songs we used to play
The thing that sticks in my mind most
Is not how badly each one goes
But what they mean to me
This one especially
When i'm alone with you it seems all my dreams
Come true
It makes me feel so good i just can't help loving you
Cos your everything i could hope for
That's why i love you
Sometimes i tell myself this girl don't love you no-more
And that someday with someone new she'll walk from your door
But if you did my world would break in two
That's why i love you
And anytime i see your face
Something very unusual takes place
All my inhibitions disappear
Now that you are here
5.My Advice To You
Why do you hurt her
When she's in love with you
Please don't desert her
Is all i ask of you
You know it's wrong
You knew along
Do what i say and you can't go wrong
My-advice to you is stay
Baby my advice to you is stay
Wait till tomorrow
And see what lies is store
If i've played my cards right
It'll be like it was before
When she loved you and you the same
I know she'll be glad to have you back again
My advice to you is stay
Baby my advice to you is stay
Can't help but thinking
That you're gonna see the light
And she'll be the one girl
To stand by you when things ain't right
So listen to me and keep your head up high
I promise you this
I'm telling you it's no lie
My advice to you is stay
Baby my advice to you is stay
6.Hold On To What You've Got
I've been over and i've been under
Been through all kinds of hell
Trouble was not only my middle name
It was my first as well
Through the years all i've encountered
I've lust one thing to say
Hold on to what you got
And don't let it slip away
I've been taken for far more rides
To places i've never been,
Stabbed so many times in the back
I so longer feel a thing
Ask me what all this has taught me
And i'll tell you what i'll say
Hold on ...
Save it for a rainy day
And keep a watchful eye on anyone that tells you lies
See that it's true
You get what your entitled to
I was brought up same as you were
No different and no worse
You could be sure my mother would hit me
If i tampered with her purse
All my life has been a lesson
The most important to date
Hold on to what you got
And don't let it slip away.
7.Came To See Me Yesterday(In The Merry Month Of)
If i ask you politely
What it is your going to be
When you grow up you tall me
A woman
Came to see me yesterday,
In the merry month of september
I took a trip to see
All the things i was going to be
A famous movie star
With a two hundred foot car
That will only carry two people
Came to see me yesterday
In the merry month of july
I'll fly anywhere you want me to
Just tell me when and
You won't mind if i don't find
What i am looking for
What i am looking for
Is a bicycle made for one
Hundred people to sit on
Plus a carriage made for two people
Came to see me yesterday,
In the merry month of july
I'll fly anywhere you want me to
Just tell me when and
You won't mind if i don't find
What i am looking for
What i am looking for
Is a bicycle made far one
Hundred people to sit on
Plus a carriage made for two people
Came to see me yesterday
In the merry month of marching
Side by side and back to back
I think it's fair to say that's that.
8.Mr. And Mrs. Regard
Congratulations everyone and two and three and four
You've really made my day for me
So here's what i've in store
An ounce of tea that will if we
Stir well turn into glue,
Should mr. and mrs. regards
Send theirs with love to you.
Now jonathan's a king you see
But then to some he's not
For in between his two front teeth
Is something i forgot
To tell you bout thirteen is out
As both boys disagree,
With mr. and mrs. regards
Who send their best to me
I've been impatient far too long
So here's my plan
It begins with g and ends with my
Your room looks grand
Still that's alright
I'll not stay brigh
T in fact i'm likely to
Send mr. and mrs. regards
My best with love from you.
9.It Ain't For Me
I have not a girl that's mine
I have not a friend
I have not got a place to live
Indeed it seems the end
But it ain't for me
As i've got myself which matters most
Throughout the life i lead
I have not a penny in my pocket and if soon
I should be found just as badly broken
I won't gloom
Cos it ain't me
As i've got myself which matters most
Throughout the life i lead
I have wandered into many a town
And have often been tempted to settle down
Yet if i did i'm sure i'd find
I'd always change my mind
So i'll keep right ahead with what i'm doing
Although i have no luxuries
My mind is quite at ease
It may seem medieval yet it's all that my heart pleads
And it ain't for me
Cos i've got myself which matters most
Throughout the life i lead
10.I Don't Mind
I don't mind you calling round on me
Cos i like your company
Anytime you want to baby please don't feel obliged to telephone
Call in any time your
Lonely and in need of someone
To love and comfort you
I promise to faithfully do
Lust that and much more if you let me
Cos i love you.
Cos i like your company
Anytime you want to baby
Please don't feel obliged to telephone
Call in any time your
Lonely and in need of someone
To love and comfort you
I promise to
Faithfully do
Just that and much more if you let me
Cos i don't mind you calling round on me
Cos i like your company
Anytime you want to baby
11.As A Rule
Now i'm not, i repeat not anyway a prude
But the sight of two people cavorting on stage
Doing what can only be termed a natural act
Is unless you wear a raincoat only good for a laugh
As a rule, i never smoke while on duty
It just isn't on do i make myself clear
Though at times if there nobody's looking i will
I mean, life's too short and if i didn't smoke i bet
What with the luck that i have
I'd probably die of warty and, that would be that
Who would have thought it was humanly possible
To mate an elephant with a kangaroo
Well as my dear old mother once said in a rage
'next thing you know they'll have pigs an the stage'
Whoever said blue skies were better than red
Must have been talking from out of his hat
I mean whose ever heard of a blue sky at night
Don't like waiting or suffocating
In over crowded tubes
But i like good wine with my dinner don't you
Yes we do
12.My Front Door Is
I'm doing something i don't understand
What i am doing, although i have planned
Out everything yesterday morning
I saw you walk by my front door is blue
How about you
Coming around to see me in the spring
Mattress on my bed, there's one sheet missing
Since last july, i don't know why
I let you walk right pass.
My front door is green. have you seen
Anybody with a name
Should know how to spell
It unless he is insane
And i'm very well
Thank-you i do know how to knot my tie
Is covered completely with letters i
Owe to you i promise to pay you back should you
Pass my front door ready at last
13.Because Of You
There's never been a time like this before
Cos when i'm not with you like is such a bore
Now if i feel lonely or i fool blue
I'll know it's because of you.
You always tell me things that i want to know
Yet when you went away you never told me 50
Now if ever there's a time i have nothing to do
I'll know it's because of you
I'll never see you again
And i know i'll regret it somehow
Can't say that i envy me i'm not exactly myself right now
I'll never see you again
And i know i'll regret it somehow
Can't say that i envy me i'm not exactly myself right now
There's never been a time like this before
Cos when i'm not with you life is such a bore
Now if i feel lonely or i feel blue
I'll know it's because of you.
14.The Window's Cleaner's Mate
You better not say what you're thinking
That's if you don't want a slap.
Tell the mrs. she looks gorgeous and don't for god's sake, don't
do that.
Must admit i'm tired of hearing rude remarks about my hair.
Sure it's long but so's your nose, cut yours and i'll cut mine.
I swear.
Catching trains is quite an art.
You need more than a giant net.
Stick to things like butterflies
It's much more of a safer bet.
Truly i'm not all that angry mad perhaps well who wouldn't be
You think i like being stood up twice
You do okay then let's make it three
Must admit i'm hard of hearing
Pardon me, what's that you said
Getting so i can't sit down
Without a nod to go ahead.
You'd better not nay what you're thinking
Unless you want to get put inside.
Meet someone, you say they look great
And think to yourself i thought they'd died.
Truly i'm not all that angry
After all it's sot every day
You go to sleep with some chewing gum
And wake up with it all over you
15.What Am I Am Doing Here With You?
I do my best to please you
You know i would never leave you
Or would i ever let you down
Whenever we era parted
I get so broken-hearted
However silly that may sound
I think you're something special
That's why i would like to settle
Once end for all this silly feud
You say i love another
But girl if love another tell me
What am i doing here with you
I've been to far off places
I've seen oil kinds of laces
A few of which i've even come to know
I've bad my share of romance
Right from the days of holding hands
Up to as fares you can go
That's why with you it's different
That's why i'm pleading innocent
To the charges you believe are true
You say i love another
But girl if love another tell me
What am i doing here with you
How can you sit there telling me where i have been
I don't believe that this is reel must be a dream
They say there comes a time in everyone's life
When the right thing to do seams wrong
Baby i love you, you knew i do
So tell me what's going on
How could you ever doubt me is there something about me that
makes you feel the way you do you say i love another but girl f
i love another tell me what em i doing here with you
I do my best to please you
You know i would never leave you
Or would i ever let you down
Whenever we era parted
I get so broken-hearted
However silly that may sound
I think you're something special that's why i would like to
settle
Once end for all this silly feud
You say i love another
But girl if love another tell me
What am i doing here with you
16.What You See Is What You Get
You don't know me, i don't know you, we're like strangers coming
out of the blue, we call each other by different names, my name
is tarzan baby, your's could be jane, looks like rain, i think
th
Ould be snow, these days somehow you just never know, the
weather bureau are finding it hard, yesterday's sunshine caught
them off their guard what you see is what you get, what you are
is what
Xpect, you expect, oh, i've no secrets to keep from you, not
that that's something i wouldn't do, we all have secrets that we
keep to ourselves, mine is what i love to, but i'm afraid i
can't te
At you see is what you get, what you are is what you expect, you
expect, what you see is what you get, what you are is what you
expect, you expect, what you see is what you get, what you are
is
You expect, you expect
