Let George Do It

What's this fierce new change?
Has your juggernaut reached my door?
Am I out of range?
Think another thought before
Babies are ground up
In the last big round-up
Ease your head play it cool in a patio chair
Try to design a postcard from your mind
Piggy bank ooooo-whee
If it's Heaven-sent then you'll go far
Listen well to me
Smoke that 7 cent cigar
Can that rumble
And Avogadro's Number
[Chorus]
Polaroid galore
Snap my jelly roll
Count your change
For your midnight chore
Play that "sell-your-soul" exchange
Menthol filter tips
Danglin' from your nether lip
[Chorus]
If John Doe writes another book
With words that just won't quit
Why must I forge through it?
Let George do it

Hole In The Head

Seven hours since you went away
Eleven coffees, Rickki Lake on play
But late at night when I'm feeling blue
I'd sell my ass before I think of you
Seven hours since you closed the door
Started a diet, got a manicure
Erased your number from my telephone
And if you call me I won't be at home
He said:
Bridge
Why don't you cry
For the day
Say goodbye
Runaway
Why don't you cry
For the guy
Say goodbye
I said ok, 'cos...
Chorus
Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head
Because I do boy,
And it's cool boy
And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed
Because of you boy,
Such a fool boy
Eleven hours on a brand new day
I'm getting ready to go out and play
It's late at night, I'm caught in a groove
I'd kiss my ass before I'm feeling blue
Seven hours, what you calling for?
A bunch of flowers and I slam the door
You're in my face, sorry what's your name?
Takes more than begging to reverse my brain
'cos...
Chorus
Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head
Because I do boy,
And it's cool boy
And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed
Because of you boy,
Such a fool boy
I'm through with it
Over it
Not having it
Crazy sh*t
Not feeling this
Can't deal, I quit
No more, no more
I'm through with it
Not having it
This crazy sh*t
Not feeling it
Can't deal with it
No more, I quit
No more, no more
Breaking off the brunt
A brand new day has just begun
Just because you made me go "ooh"
Doesn't mean I'll put up with you
Don't you dare come back
Can't u see I won't take that?
I ain't crying over you
Better fill your head up like I told you
Bridge
Why don't you cry
For the day
Say goodbye
Runaway
Why don't you cry
For the guy
Say goodbye
I said ok, 'cos...
Chorus
Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head
Because I do boy,
And it's cool boy
And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed
Because of you boy,
Such a fool boy (such a fool)
Chorus
Ooh, won't you miss me like a hole in the head
Because I do boy (I do)
And it's cool boy (yeah it's cool)
And ooh, bet you never thought I'd get out of bed
Because of you boy, (I do boy)
Such a fool boy (such a fool)

Roll Me Over

Now, this is number one,
And the fun has just begun.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]
Roll me over, in the clover,
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.
Now, this is number two,
And he's got me in a stew.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number three,
And his hand is on my knee.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number four,
And he's got me on the floor.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number five,
And his hand is on my thigh.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number six,
And he's got me in a fix.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number seven,
And it's just like being in heaven.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number eight,
And the doctor's at the gate.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number nine,
And the twins are doing fine.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.[CHORUS]

Now, this is number ten,
And he's started once again.
Roll me over, lay me down,
And do it again.

Heaven Only Knows

(heaven only knows...)
Oh, I know its strange
But I think that its about to change
So Ill take the chance
To get back into the straight again
Chorus:
Heaven only knows (Im really on the level)
Heaven only knows (Im trying to find a way)
Heaven only knows (Im walking down the straight & lonely road today)
(again...)
(heaven only knows...)
Now the sun will shine
And Im gonna work it out this time
And before the light
All I gotta take is one more night.
Repeat chorus
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows.
(heaven only knows)
As the hours go by
I can only wonder why
You can change your mind
But you never change the price.
Repeat chorus
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows
Heaven only knows, heaven only knows.

Rikki Dont Lose That Number

We hear youre leaving, thats ok
I thought our little wild time had just begun
I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run
But if you have a change of heart
Chorus:
Rikki dont lose that number
You dont wanna call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki dont lose that number
Its the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home
I have a friend in town, hes heard your name
We can go out driving on slow hand row
We could stay inside and play games, I dont know
And you could have a change of heart
Chorus
You tell yourself youre not my kind
But you dont even know your mind
And you could have a change of heart

Leave It All Behind

I took a drive along the west bank of the shore
I thought of what you said then I thought some more
You say your life is all but chiseled out in stone
And all you want is just a taste of the unknown
Think it was yesterday I called you on the phone
You say you need a change, I recognize the tone
Buy me a ticket please, to anywhere Ill go
Im not saying what is right or what is wrong
Im just thinking youve been hanging here too long
So, why dont we, just up and leave it all behind
Maybe a change would ease your mind
For a time, leave it all behind
What I really want to do is see you smile
Hear you talk and let me listen for a while
Theres too much going on to keep it all inside
You try to whisper, but you start to scream and shout
What you need is just a place to let it out
(chorus)
You try to whisper but you start to scream and shout
What you need is just a place to let it out
(final chorus)

Listen

Whats it like to play a part?
Whats it like to have a wooden heart?
Every word you say is so rehearsed
You think your clothes and actions control the universe
Listen, what youd better do
Listen, better change your head
Listen, or theres nothing we can do
Listen to the one who will change your world
Youre the face upon a playing card
A coloured painted cold visage
[youre] just a pawn of somebody somewhere
Only trouble is youre gonna get no-where
Listen, what youd better do
Listen, better change your head
Listen, or theres nothing we can do
Listen to the one who will change your world
Whats it like to play a part?
[you] got a wooden heart
[youre] just a puppet on a string
A nothing, a no-one, no style
[you] just play a part
[youre] just a pawn of someone somewhere
And youll get no-where
Listen what youd better do
Listen, better change your head
Listen, or theres nothing we can do
Listen to the one who will change your world
Gonna change your world

Rock n Roll Is King

Listen everybody let me tell you bout the rock n roll
Feel that rhythm and its really gonna thrill your soul
She said come along with me, to a land of make believe
She said rock n roll is king
She loves that rock n roll and she plays it all night long
Thats all she ever tells me when I call her on the telephone
She says feel that jumpin beat, and git up on your feet
She says rock n roll is king
Chorus: oh let those guitars play
Play for me play for me
Oh let that song ring out
Thats how its meant to be
It rolls like a train thats comin on down the track
She rolled over beethoven and she gave tchaikovsky back
She loves that drivin beat, she goes dancin on down the street
She said rock n roll is king
Chorus
When she comes around and Im listenin to the radio
She says you cant do that cause all I wanna do is rock n roll
Now here Im gonna stay where that music starts to play
She says rock n roll is king

You took me runnin up a wrong way street.
When we got there, you said, cant you read ?
I must be blind, but now and then I see
Another number where mine used to be.
Chorus:
You keep on changin your face, like a chameleon.
You keep on changing your face like a chameleon.
I say whats up, and then you say its down.
I see triangles, and you say its round, round, round.
Saw an empty glass; you said its full.

Going Around One More Time

My heart had been broken
And I couldnt take no more
I shuttered up my windows
And I bolted tight my door
Then I took one look at you
And I nearly lost my mind
Chorus:
Now Im going round going round
Going round going around one more time
Yes Im going roung going round
Going round goung around one more time
Betty was a little heartbreaker
It didnt quite work out
She did a number on my confidence
I was riddled with self doubt
I said thats it Im through I quit
The juanita she looked so fine.
Chorus
round and round in a circle
Its always the same
One moment you swear youve had enough
The next youve got to know her name
All on my own it wasnt that bad
I was getting by as I could get
I stopped into a drug store
For one pack of cigarettes
She didt have a quarter
Had to call her cousin kate
And could I lend her maybe
One thin dime

Bank Holiday

Grandma needs new dentures
To eat the crust on pizza
Been taken out by her daughter
Because she thought she oughta
The kids are eating Snickers
Because they're so delicious
Then there's sticky fingers
And mother loses her knickers

CHORUS:
Bank holiday comes six times a year
Days of enjoyment to which everyone cheers!
Bank holiday comes with a six pack of beer
Then it's back to work - A! G! A-I-N!

Barbecue is cooking
Sausages and chicken
The patio is buzzing
And neighbours they are looking
John is down the fun pub
Drinking lots of lager
Girls and boys are on the game
And all the high streets look the same

CHORUS

Back to work - A! G! A-I-N!

Heaven

Evryone is trying to get to the bar.
The name of the bar,
The bar is called heaven.
The band in heaven,
They play my favourite song.
They play it once again,
They play it all night long.
Chorus:
Heaven,
Heaven is a place,
A place where nothing,
Nothing ever happens.

There is a party, everyone is there.
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time.
Its hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting, could be so much fun.

It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same.

Did We Really Ever Try

(J.P. Maunick / M. Edwards)
Chorus:
Did we really ever try to understand each other?
Or was it just a game that sometimes people play?
Did we really ever see eye to eye, I wonder?
Was it just a game that sometimes people play?
[Sometimes people play]
I wonder if
We ever listened
To a word
That the other had to say
All that we shared
Our inner treasures
Are used against each other as we fall
Chorus
I wonder if
Before we started
We could have known
That the road would end this way
What makes us give
Our hearts so freely
Only to find that we're strangers after all
Chorus
Night and day, night and day, day and night
Night and day, people play, day and night
We fool ourselves
Into believing
Our difference will surely change in time
So we proceed
Blissfully blinded
Throwing caution to the wind along the way

Its Too Late To Change The Time

[intro]
Too late
Too late
Too late

In this automatic age
We shop through the yellow page
Gone is the corner store
There is a supermarket there for you
People give way to change
But feelings remain the same
[chorus]
And its too late, too late to change the time
Well its too late, too late to change the time
And its too late, too late to change the time
But its not too late (too late) to change your mind

Its a new day, a new age
A photograph just taken, is ready one minute later
Cars are bigger and better
But the manufacturers sastified never
In a world full of crime
I cant let you think thats right
[chorus]
And its too late, too late to change the time
And its too late, too late to change the time
And its too late, too late to change the time
But its not too late (too late) to change your mind
No, no
[bridge 1]
So you wanna be a star (so you wanna be a star)
You are who you think you are (ah think you are)
You dont have to go further
Than my loving arms
[chorus half]
And its too late, too late to change the time
But its not too late (too late) to change your mind
[bridge 2]
Are you sure you wanna go to new york city (new york city)
Where girls make it big if theyre pretty (if they pretty)
Let say you get that penthouse view
But whos gonna love you the way I do (just the way I do)

Its too late, too late to change the time
And its too late, too late to change the time, no
Too late, too late to change the time
But its not too late (too late) to change your mind

(Beat By) Jealousy

Who was with you, where you been? Baby it can't be this again
I can't cool it 'cos I can't win it with you
Words like punches, things we said, under the belt and in the head
Down for the count in a cold cold bed, beat by jealousy
Chorus:
Jealousy, jealousy, stranglehold, so love can't breathe
Let me be, set me free, jealousy
You won't hear what I imply, what you say, I don't buy
You deny but you lie, jealousy
chorus
(Solo)
Down suspicious, torn in doubt, dirty vicious, knock me out
Danger danger, stakes are high, hook the blow between the eyes
Every round, you know we lose more ground, jealousy
chorus
