More song lyrics 8

Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wondering in the night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through…

People are strange when you are a stranger
Faces look ugly when you are alone
Women seen wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you are down

When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
Noone remembers you're name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange

All around me are familiar faces
Worn-out places, worn-out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world

She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
She talks kinda lazy
And people say she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

Dammit, Janet, I love you
Here's a ring to prove that I'm no joker
There's three ways that love can grow
That's good, bad or mediocre
Oh J-A-N-E-T I love you so

Oh it's nicer than Betty Munroe had, oh Brad
Now we're engaged and I'm so glad, oh Brad
That you've met Mum and you know Dad, oh Brad
I've one thing to say and that's
Brad I'm mad for you

Call me irresponsible,
Yes, I'm unreliable,
But it's undeniably true
I'm irresponsibly mad for you.

Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me"
Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me"
"haven't you got an 'ome to go to? "
(no, we're gnomads)
"didn't they teach you to get your hair cut at school? you look like a rolling gnome"
(no, not at the london school of ecognomics)
Now they're staying up the chimney
And we're living on caviar and honey (hooray!)
Cause they're earning me lots of money
Writing comedy prose for radio shows
It's the-er (what? )
It's the gnome service of course

I want to tell you a story
About a little man
If I can
A gnome named Grimble Crumble
And little gnomes stay in their homes
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine
He wore a scarlet tunic
A blue green hood
It looked quite good
He had a big adventure
Amidst the grass
Fresh air at last
Wining, dining, biding his time
And then one day, hooray!
Another way for gnomes to say
Ooomray

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far
Over land and sea
A little shy
And sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day he passed my way
And while we spoken of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return
And then one day
One magic day he passed my way
And while we spoken of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved
in return....

Let us cling together as the year go by,
Oh my love, my love.
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn,
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned.

Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Oh honey if I get restless
Baby your not that kind
Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off of me
Oh honey when you knock on my door
Oh I gave you my key

Your baby doesn't love you any more
Golden days before they end
Whisper secrets to the wind
Your baby won't be near you anymore
Tender nights before they fly
Send falling stars that seem to cry
Your baby doesn't want you any more
It's over
It breaks your heart in two
To know she's been untrue
But, oh, what will you do?
When she says to you
There's someone new
We're through, we're through
It's over, it's over, it's over
All the rainbows in the sky
Start to weep, then say goodbye
You won't be seeing rainbows anymore
Setting suns before they fall
Echo to you that's all that's all
But you'll see lonely sunsets after all
It's over, it's over, it's over
It's over

Dry your eyes, mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes, mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Cause cause cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba,observing the hypocrites yeah
Mingle with the good people we meet yeah
Good friends we have had,oh good friends we have lost along the way yeah
In the bright future you can't forget the past
So dry your tears I say yeah

Hello, woman of my dreams (hello, woman of my dreams)
Is this not the way it seems?
Purple words on a gray background
To be a woman and to be turned down
Old enough now to change your name
When so many love you is it the same?
It's the woman in you that makes you want to play this game

So once a year Granny takes a trip
To Hollywood and she's well equipped
For the movie auditions in Hollywood town
She always turns up but she's always turned down.

"Granny Takes A Trip" by: The Purple Gang (1967)

The preacher talked to me and he smiled
Said, "Come and walk with me
Come and walk one more mile
Now for once in your life you're alone
But you ain't got a dime
There's no time for the phone"
I've just got to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on
I told him I'm in no hurry
But if I broke her heart
Then won't you tell her I'm sorry
And for once in my life I'm alone
And I've got to let her know just in time before I go
I've just go to get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through
Hold on, hold on

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea
Another lonely day with noone here but me
More loneliness than a man can bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle

Good morning Mr Sunshine
You brighten up my day
Come sit beside me, in your way.
I see you every morning
Outside the restaurants
The music plays so nonchalant ( ah ah ah)

Lonely days, Lonely nights
Where would I be without my woman?

I feel your fever from miles around
I'll pick you up in my car and we'll paint the town
Just kiss me, baby, and tell me twice
That you're the one for me
The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just a wrote me a letter
I don't care how much money I gotta spend
Got to get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter
Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no more
Listen mister, can't you see I got to get back
To my baby once-a more
Anyway, yeah
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter

The letter you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
Just rember this,my girl , when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light

And I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
I will sing this victory song
Woo hoo hoo Woo hoo hoo

This is the letter that I, I didn't write
Looking for colour in the, the black and white
Skyscrapers we created on shaky ground
And I'm trying to find my patience
But you won't let me breathe
And I'm not ever right
All we are is talking
Over each other
There's nothing underneath
It's all a waste of time
All we are is talking
Over each other (over each other)
Over each other

Mother,do you think they'll drop the bomb
Mother,do you think they'll like this song
Mother,do you think they'll break my balls
Ooh,ahh Mother should I build the wall

Mother, should I run for president
Mother, should I trust the government
Mother, will they put me in the firing line
Ooh ahh is it just a waste of time

Are they still getting down
Where we used to go and dance
Will our ball club win the pennant
Do you think, they have a chance?
And tell me friend, how in the world have you been?
Tell me, what's out and I want to know what's in

What's the deal man
What's happening? Tell me brother
What's happening brother?
Ah, what's happening brother?
What's happening my man?
Whoo, ah, ah, what's happening brother?
Say man, whoo, what's happening brother?

What's been shaking up and down the line?
I want to know because, I'm slightly behind the times
