1.Anything But Love
I sing a song about clouds and rainbows
I hum a tune that sings like a dove.
Rhyme some words about anything
Anything but love.
I paint a picture of my prison
With blue and grey from the skies above
Framed and signed with the title
'anything but love.'
He had to go but i won't miss him
I have got better things to do
Like writing stories and painting pictures
Of anything but love.
I write a story about a couple
Steal a plot from an old movie
You can tell what inspired it
Anything but love.
2.Club Limbo
Before this evening draws to a close
And you go home to homework.
Before the moon goes down on lonely street
I know a place where we can go, baby,
Where you can find out just how low life can be.
Has no one told you, you have a future, girl
So bright and filled with promise
Has no one lead you down to club limbo.
That's just the place for us to meet, baby,
Where you can find out just how your life should be.
The clock is ticking and you are picking
Clothes, maybe to wear tomorrow
You haven't met me yet...soon you will
Down at club limbo they still play stardust
Down at club limbo that's the place for love.
3.Danny Diamond
Danny diamond, she was a star
She took the stage every quarter hour
She was the hottest gig in town, in fact
He was the hottest girl around.
She had the strut, she had the lines
To make a man's heart go 'round about...
She put it all into her act until
One night after the show.
Danny gyrated, wouldn't you know
Something had to go
Down she smack- it was her back
Completely crack- so fade to black...
So ends the act of danny diamond
She was a star.
4.Good Enough For Granddad
If it's good enough for granddad
It's good enough for me.
The way it was that's the way it's got to be.
He told me all about the good times that he had.
Even when the times were sad.
What's good enough for grandad.
He's been to all kinds of places
Been to every old foreign land
Ain't a man alive shuck and jive
Better than granddad can!
All the good times that he had.
If they were good enough for granddad,
They're good enough for me.
5.I've Found A New Baby
I've found a new baby, i've found a new girl,
My fashion plate baby got me in a whirl
Her new kind of lovin' done made me her slave,
Her sweet turtle dovin' is all that i crave.
Sweetest miss, with a kiss, full o' bliss, can't resist
Tells me lies, but she's wise, naughty eyes mesmerize.
You know i don't mean maybe, baby.
I just had to fall.
And that is why i say, 'swing, you dogs!'
I don't mean maybe. i have found a new baby,
So, baby, that's all!
6.La Grippe
There's a flu bug getting passed around
And it's spreading like fire through the town
There's a virus holing up inside us
Everyone that i know is coming down
There's an asian influenza
Infecting us all by the score
And it's turning into pneumonia
We must go out once more
There's a fool moon howling at the night
And it's bark is much worse than it's bite
So we must go out and dance around
Yes we must go tonight
So the doctors came on the evening train
With their flasks and their caskets and vials
Mass psychosis was their diagnosis (yes)
So we all cashed our checks and went wild
There's a fool moon howling at the night
And it's bark is much worse than it's bite
So we must go out and dance around
Yes we must go tonight
La grippe!, salsa!
7.Lover's Lane
Broadway really ain't quite the same
Since you and i found lover's lane.
Standing on the corner fourth and main
Dreaming of you, way downtown in lover's lane.
The sun is down the moon is bright
Lover's want to stroll all night.
Way downtown in lover's lane.
Well, getting high on bourbon and champagne
Just can't compare to what we share
Down on lover's lane
Standing on the corner fourth and main
Still it cannot match the thrill of lover's lane
When all the world is fast asleep,
She'll be jumping off lover's leap
With some other fella down in lover's lane.
8.Lugubrious Whing Whang
9.Plenty More
They may walk hand in hand
Like lovers through the market square
Selecting leather goods,
Pretending that they just don't care
They say all the boys are monsters
All the girls are whores
So when you lose the one you love
There's always plenty more
They may be in a club
All dressed up waiting to meet you
Or in some garret bleak
Despairing over what to do
All the girls are monsters
All the boys are whores
So when you lose the one you love
There's always plenty more.
10.Wash Jones
I was talking to an oak tree
When the cypress butted in.
Out of car parts, a raven
Made a nest inside my skin.
To understand me better
You all ought to follow me home
I make a wish i clean the fish
I can scream like the cicada
Gin the seed right out of the bowl
Ride the train to memphis
When there's cotton to be sold.
To understand this better
You all ought to follow me home
Make a wish ＆ clean the fish
That's why they call me wash jones.
I feel like driving but my car won't run
I feel like plowing but my mules won't come.
I was lost down in the bottom
I was cutting through the cane
Tied my team up to a rusty trace chain
That's why they call me wash jones.
11.Wished For You
I wished on a star 'send me down a lover
Don't want any other kind of love.'
Wished on a star 'save my heart from sadness
Save my mind from madness from afar.'
Used to sit and cry all day
Wonder why my love would fade.
Used to while away the hour
Cannot go on, cannot go on
Without you.
Now i don't do the things i used to do
Ever since the day i wished for you.
12.You're Driving Me Crazy
You left me sad and lonely,
Why did you leave me lonely？
I have a heart that's only
For nobody but you.
I'm burning like a flame, dear.
Won't ever be the same, dear.
I always put the blame, dear,
On nobody but you.
Yes, you, you're drivin' me crazy!
My tears for you make everything hazy,
They cloud the skies of blue.
I do! i have friends who would hear me
And cheer me, believe me, if they knew
That you were the kind who would hurt me,
Desert me when i needed you.
Yea, you, you're drivin' me crazy!
What did i do to you？
