What Goes On
(reed)
What goes on in your mind?
I think that I am falling down.
What goes on in your mind?
I think that I am upside down.
Lady, be good, and do what you should,
You know itll work allright.
Lady, be good, do what you should,
You know itll be allright.
Im goin up, and Im goin down.
Im gonna fly from side to side.
See the bells, up in the sky,
Somebodys cut the string in two.
Lady, be good, and do what you should,
You know itll work alright.
Lady, be good, do what you should,
You know itll be alright.
One minute one, one minute two.
One minute up and one minute down.
What goes on here in your mind?
I think that I am falling down.
Lady, be good, and do what you should,
You know itll work alright.
Lady, be good, do what you should,
You know itll be alright.

Hope
Written by gerry beckley, 1994
Found on hourglass.
Theres a clock timing the world as it turns
Theres a man marking the candle as it burns
Keeping track of every minute that remains
Still we hope somehow
Its gonna be alright
Its gonna turn out fine
Theres a light shining beyond the southern cross
Burning bright for everyone of us whos lost
More than faith more than a reason to go on
Rise on up knowing
Youre gonna win the fight
Its gonna turn out fine
You gotta hope itll be alright
Come on and hope itll turn out fine
Yeah, hope itll be alright, please
When the night turns to the deepest shade of black
At that point there is no reason to turn back
High above angels are falling from the sky
Lift your heart knowing
Its gonna be alright
Its gonna turn out fine
You gotta hope itll be alright
Come on and hope itll turn out fine
Yeah, hope itll be alright, please
You gotta hope, ya gonna win the fight
Come on n hope with all your might
Yeah hope its gonna be alright, please
Millions of people alone in the dark
Awaiting a moment of hope
Please
You gotta hope (whenever times get tough) itll be alright
Come on and hope (and when the road is rough) itll turn out fine
Yeah, hope (just when youve had enough) itll be alright, please
You gotta hope (whenever times get tough) youre gonna win the fight
Come on and hope (and when the road is rough) with all your might
Yeah, hope (just when youve had enough) its gonna be alright, please
You gotta hope (whenever times get tough) itll be alright
Come on and hope (and when the road is rough) itll turn out fine
Yeah, hope (just when youve had enough) itll be alright, please
You gotta hope, youre gonna win the fight

60 Miles An Hour
I dont know if I told you, but Im seeking sanctuary
Youll never guess the things that I do
Ill have the devil round for tea
Dont you know that Im here beside you
Cant you see that I cant relax
When I saw you in my rearview
You couldve stopped me in my tracks
Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night itll be alright
cos Ill be there for you when you want me to
You can take me to an island, ride across the stormy sea
We can worship pagan idols, there together you and me
Why dont you run over here and rescue me?
You can drive down in your car
Why dont we both take a ride and turn that key
Well drive at 60 miles an hour
Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night itll be alright
cos Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night itll be alright
cos Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill be there for you when you want me to
Ill stand by your side like I always do
In the dead of night itll be alright

Tell Him
Yo heh heh tell him its like uhh you know uhh

Make me unselfish without being blind
Though I may suffer Ill envy it not
And endure what comes
Cause hes all that I got and
Tell him...
Tell him I need him [yeah]
Tell him I love him [tell him]
And itll be alright
*background singing* telll himmm be alright be alright
Tell him tell him I need him
Tell him I love him

Now I may have faith to make mountains fall
But if I lack love then I am nothin at all
I can give away everything I possess
But left without love then I have no happiness
I know Im imperfect [i know Im imperfect]
& not without sin [& not without sin]
But now that Im older all childish things end
And tell him...

Cause love is not boastful
Oooh and loveis not loud
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
Everythings gonna be alright [w/ adlibs]
Oooh oooh yeah yeah aww yeah
Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on earth
But if I speak wrong then what is it worth?
See what we now know is nothing compared
To the love that was shown when our lives were spared
And tell him...
Tell him I need him [yeah]
Tell him I love him [tell him]
And itll be alright

Guitar Song
I feel bad
And beautiful
In all the strangest places
You feel good
Youre sweetest
The weathers changing as I look at your face
Falling
Fall to the floor
Falling
You know we can
Havent had a dream in such a long time now
Its raining here and all the leaves are on the ground
But Im safe and warm outside its cold and grey
Thats my guitar and I will play for you all day
So many songs
In my mind
Maybe less cause Ive drunk so much wine
Theres light
In your eyes
But out the window its gone dark outside
Falling
Fall to the floor
Falling

Romance
Away with all those tales of romance
You try so hard
And I cant take the heartbreak you weave
Dont cry alone
Oh baby baby dont give up on me
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and you will see
Oh baby baby this I guarantee
Turn it up, turn it up itll be alright
Alright, I said some things need to change
Desires? . . . maybe
But I dont like to rearrange your lies (your lies)
So cry alone
Oh baby baby dont give up on me
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up Im begging please
Oh baby baby this I guarantee
Turn it up, turn it up itll be alright
Loves a special thing
Lovers only need honesty
Two hearts the same (two hearts the same)
Beating in the name of romance
And I dont care who gives in
cause its only a game
The end is just the same
And what remains is why youre crying alone
So alone
Oh baby baby dont give up on me
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up Im begging please
Oh baby baby this I guarantee
Turn it up, turn it up, itll be alright
Turn it up, turn it up, itll be alright
Turn it up, turn it up, itll be alright

Itll All Work Out
She wore faded jeans and soft black leather
She had eyes so blue they looked like weather
When she needed me I wasnt around
Thats the way it goe s, itll all work out
There were times apart, there were times together
I was pledged to her for worse or better
When it mattered most I let her down
Thats the way it goes, itll all work out
Itll all work out eventually
Better off with him than here with me
Itll all work out eventually
Maybe better with him than here with me
Now the wind is high and the rain is heavy
And the waters rising in the levee
Still I think of her when the sun go es down
It never goes away, but it all works out

I Cant Stand It
(reed)
Before being a man
Livin in a garbage pail
My landlady call me up
She tried to hit me with a mop
I cant stand it anymore more
I cant stand it anymore more
I cant stand it anymore more
But if shelly she would just come back
Itll be allright
But if shelly she would just come back
Itll be allright
I live with thirteen dead cats
A purple who hear spats
Theyre all livin in a hall
And I cant stand it anymore
I cant stand it anymore more
I cant stand it anymore more
I cant stand it anymore more
But if shelly she would just come back
Itll be allright
But if shelly she would just come back
Itll be allright
Before being a man
Livin in a garbage pail
My landlady call me up
She tried to hit me with a mop
I cant stand it anymore more

Hello Lady Goodbye
I woke up in the morning
Heard a mockingbird sing
Was he laughing at me
I went to the basin washed the sleep out my eyes
So I could see
A note on the bed close to where my lover should be
She slipped away in the night
The writing was shaky and with tears on the sheets
I'm sorry we had a fight
So farewell sweet lover farewell
I'm sorry we never said goodbye
So farewell sweet lover farewell
Left with a tear in your eye
Must've been brewing for a very long time
In the wardrobe the hangers are bare
Don't know how you did it it must've been planned
You even took your favourite chair
So goodbye my lady goodbye
You won't find no tear in my eye
So goodbye my lady goodbye
Going out tonight to get high
Found myself at Charlies scene
Drinking all fashions
sticky painted movie queen
Winked her eye at me
That's how it happened
Diamond shoes satin dress
flashin' flashin' flashin' flashin'
Woke up in the morning heard my mockingbird sing
And it was singin' for me
The lady I met last night's here by my side
She's good company
Well hello sweet lady hello
Good morning with a smile
Well hello sweet lady hello
This lady's gonna make it alright
This lady's gonna make it alright
This lady's gonna make it alright
Lady lady
This lady's gonna make it alright x4

Have Another Drink
Has everybody got problems?
Are you stuck in a deadend job?
Frustrated and dissatisfied?
Are you on the edge of suicide?
Terrorist bombers on the left,
Fascist plots on the right.
Mass destruction and homicide,
Are you horrified and terrified?
Such a shame.
Weve all got problems we know,
Theres one thing thats for sure,
Theres only one cure for all your hangups and all your depressions.
Have another drink itll make you feel better,
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
If you feel down and youre under the weather
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
(repeat above four lines).
Facts and figures.
Filling out forms.
Reading circulars.
Dictating letters.
Is your occupation
Getting to your brain?
Is there no relief?
Its like a ball and chain.
Theres no need to get depressed,
Worrying wont make it better.
Theres only one consolation I can recommend.
Dont take my word for it, try it for yourself.
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
Have another drink itll make you feel better.
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
Have another drink itll make you feel better.
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
If youre feeling down and youre under the weather,
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
Have another drink itll make you feel better,
Have another drink and youll feel alright.
If youre feeling down and under the weather,
Have another drink and youll feel alright.

Up The Hill Backwards
The vacuum created by the arrival of freedom
And the possibilities it seems to offer
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
A series of shocks - sneakers fall apart
Earth keeps on rolling - witnesses falling
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
Yeah, yeah, yeah - up the hill backwards
Itll be alright ooo-ooo
While we sleep they go to work
Were legally crippled its the death of love
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
Its got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it

Peace On Earth
Its nothing serious, just a simple case of bottles, I left behind
Its nothing serious, just a wooden case of bottles, I left behind
Itll go away someday, well alright
Itll go away somehow, come on do your thing
Its nothing dangerous, just a solid block of concrete, I left behind
Its nothing dangerous, just a solid block of action, I left behind
Itll go away someday, well alright
Itll go away somehow, come on do your thing
Peace on earth, God in heaven, peace on earth
Living in heat, memory melting in pools of dirt
The genetic plaything is eating what I left behind
Itll go away someday
Walking in the streets of pnom penh, giving me dangerous feelings and then
Seeing those bottles in motion again, cruising in cocktails
