Clover Over Dover
I'm on the white cliffs of Dover
Thinking it over and over
But if I jump it's all over
A cautionary tale for you
I'd like to roll in the clover
With you over and over
On the white cliffs of Dover
And then I let you push me over
If that is the fact
Then in actual fact
I'm not where it's at
And it's over
Oh

There There Child
There there child, there there child
Dont it make you feel alright
There there child, dont it all look good tonight
And you feel like going but you gotta stay
Aint no time for to hop on a freight train
And you feel like laying in the morning hay
cause its time for a nap now, before rain
There there child, dont it make you satisfied
There there child, you can rest your weary eyes
And you feel like walking on a mountain top
Or a ride on a boat up the river
And the last lonely sheep has returned to the flock
As you wing over the white cliffs of dover
There there child, theres a glint in your eye for surprise
There there child, are you ready to don your disguise, yes you are
Sun goes down across the pond and the wind, wind is blowing wild
And the swallow soars and the lion roars
Outside your front door, by the oak tree in the meadow
There there child, there there child
Are you ready to don your disguise
There there child, theres a glint in your eye for surprise
Do you feel like walking on a mountain top
Or ride on a boat up the river
And the last lonely sheep has returned to the flock
As you wing over the white cliffs of dover
As you wing over the white cliffs of dover, straight ahead
As you wing over the white cliffs of dover, straight ahead
You wing over the white cliffs of dover

Many Rivers
Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of dover
Many rivers to cross and it's only my will
That keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years and,
I merely survive because of my pride.
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My woman left and she did'nt say why
Well I guess, I gotta try.
Many rivers to cross but where to begin,
I'm playing for time
There'll be times when I find myself thinking
Of committing some dreadful crime.
I've got many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of dover
Many rivers to cross and it's only my will
That keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years and,
I merely survive because of my pride.

There was an Old Person of Dover,
Who rushed through a field of blue Clover;
But some very large bees,
Stung his nose and his knees,
So he very soon went back to Dover.

The Cliffs
They sing of the grandeur of cliffs inland,
But the cliffs of the ocean are truly grand;
And I long to wander and dream and doubt
Where the cliffs by the ocean run out and out.
To the northward far as the eye can reach
Are sandhill, boulder, and sandy beach;
But southward rises the track for me,
Where the cliffs by the ocean run out to sea.
Friends may be gone in the morning fair,
But the cliffs by the ocean are always there;
Lovers may leave when the wind is chill,
But the cliffs by the ocean are steadfast still.
They watch the sea and they ward the land,
And they warn the ships from the treacherous sand;
And I sadly think in the twilight hour
What I might have been had I known my power.
Where the smoke-cloud blurs and the white sails fill,
They point the ships to keep seaward still;
And I think—Ah, me!—and I think—Ah, me!
Of the wreck I’d saved had I kept to sea.
Oh! the cliffs are old and the cliffs are sad,
And they know me sane, while men deem me mad.
Oh! the cliffs are firm and the cliffs are strong,
And they know me right, while men deem me wrong.
And I sometimes think in the dawning gray,
I am old as they, I am old as they;
And I think, I think that in field and town
My spirit shall live till the cliffs come down.

Since the day of the air, the old frontiers are gone. When you think of the defense of England you no longer think of the chalk cliffs of Dover; you think of the Rhine.

Too Much Information
Too much information running through my brain
Too much information driving me insane
Ive seen the whole world six times over
Sea of japan to the cliffs of dover
Oh

Over my dead body
Over me
Over you
Over everybody
Too much information running through my brain
Too much information driving me insane
Ive seen the whole world six times over

Many Rivers To Cross
Theres so many rivers to cross
But I cant seem to find my way over
Wandering, Im lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of dover
Many rivers to cross
And its only my will that keeps me alive.
Ive been hurt, washed up for years
But I mearly survive because of my pride
And this loneliness wont leave me alone,
Its such a drag to be on your own
My baby left, and she wouldnt say why,
Now all I do is cry...
Ive got many rivers to cross
And its only my will that keeps me alive
Ive got so many rivers to cross,
Oh, so many rivers to cross...

Car and caravan
Car before caravan, no, car behind caravan
Twirling around like some demented fan
You woke up safely in a warm bed
Now bed on motorway floor stone dead
Started off your possessions all together
Now all lie open to the local weather
Police cars and fire engines fly around
Adding their usual unmistakeable sound
Long queues of traffic begin to form
People resigned, none sounding horn
Your days of caravanning are sure over
Try camping then on the white cliffs of Dover.

Down From Dover
I know this dress Im wearing doesnt hide the secret I have tried concealing
When he left he promised me that hed be back by the time it was revealing
The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling shadow oer the fields of clover
And time is running out for me I wish that he would hurry down from dover
Hes been gone so long when he left the snow was deep upon the ground
And I have seen a spring and summer pass and now the leaves are turning brown
And any time a tiny face will show itself cause waitings almost over
But I wont have a name to give it if he doesnt hurry down from dover
My folks werent understanding when they found out they sent me from the home place
My daddy said if folks found out hed be ashamed to ever show his face
My mamma said I was a fool and she did not believe it when I told her
That everything would be all right cause soon he would be coming down from dover
I loved him more than anything and I could not refuse him when he needed me
He was the only one Id loved and I just cant believe that he was using me
He couldnt leave me here like this I know it cant be so it cant be over
He wouldnt make me go through this so long, oh hell be coming down from dover
My body aches the time is here its lonely in this place where Im lyin
Our baby has been born but somethings wrong its much too still I hear no cryin
I guess in some strange way she knew shed never have a fathers arms to hold her
And dying was her way of telling me he wasnt coming down from dover

Today Mueller
Let it happen
Happy slappin', tappin' paddy-oh
She'd like to give her life away
Like to stay another day
Try it out another way
Arh, today, today, today, today mueller
Give your notice of your leaving
Arh, today, today, today, today mueller
Don't tell them you can't go with me
This will always be
Red rover, red rover
Pass under, pass over, pass through
And over, and over the White Cliffs of Dover with you
Today mueller
Make it happen

Humble Neighborhoods
We don't wanna go home
We're bad people and we do bad things
Verse 1
Here we go, don't ya know
We're the ones that keep it wicked
Rock n' Roll, all good, mix it up
That's my ticket
Cruisin' in my Cadillac Escalade trickin'
Sometimes like it easy, sometimes
Like it rugged
Keep control, don't ya know
Hit the floor, run for cover
Flew around the world about fifty times cover
From New York to LA to the white cliffs of
Dover, the road can be my enemy
The road can be my lover
Chorus
From the humble neighborhoods
We're takin' over the dance floor
From the humble neighborhoods
We're gettin' out of control
Verse 2
Here we go, don't ya know
We're the ones that make it crazy
This ain't time to get lazy
Meetin' at 11 in the hotel lobby
Same faces, different places
Never knowin' where we going now
Someday I'm gonna die but it
Won't be from boredom
If you've got the skills the I suggest
That you throw down
Meet us at the spot 'cause it's
Gonna be a showdown
Naw, you can't ride the bus
Man you better cool down

See Me Through
When I feel like lcant get over
The solid white cliffs of dover
When I dont know what to do
Baby see me through (yeah)
Well Ive been too long in this storm
I feel so sad and forlorn
And perhaps Im counting on you
See me through (yeah)
When I think of that dear rugged cross
Where the dear saviour gave his all
When I feel like Im on my last go round
See me through
See me through the days of wine and roses
See me through one day at a time
See me through when things get heavy
On my mind
When Im already gone (my cup is full)
You can get me through
Bright lights, big city wont do
You can see me through
When I wake up in the morning Im gone
And I need a friend to lean upon
Why dont you see what you can do?
See me through
See me through the days of wine and roses
See me through one day, one day at a time
When Im already mixed up and gone
And you know its just not on
You know exactly what to do
Baby, see me through
Hey get down, baby please dont go
I love you so, you know what to do
Listen, when we were young
When I was a school boy, you used to love my tie
It aint nothing like I love you now
Set my soul on fire yeah, I believe you
See me through, see me through
See me through before, before, before,
Tv, before rock n roll, previous, previous,
Previous, in the days...

Bad Breath
Bad breath is not necessarily a omen of death
It may be a sign of the mouth in decline
An anorexics cachetic past time
Of Eat and PURGE
and Eat again
Itmaybe the garlic eaten to ward of evil
Or organic toxins in the brain
Bad breath may not be a sympton of death
But a sign of loner in isolation
Looking for salvation in the deep clean department
Of a dental suite
Or buddhists 4am retreat
To OOOOm
Or on a nudist colony for one!
Or after an all week fast, when you are DYING
For something to eat and are parched!
Bad breath may arrive with Bad Fairies
Be an early sign of dental caries
Bad breath may follow a love affair that is over
After you chewed on a whole clove of clover
And left on a fast train to dover
To meet your Aunty Vera by the white cliffs and reminisce
Bad breath may be a sign of
The poetry of life that does not rhyme
As easily as a nursery rhyme
Doing time with a man called 'Elm street Freddie'
Best to make do with a teddy
The don't eat or speak
And unlike a man they are free of sweat glands
