Nonstop July
(pal waaktaar)
Walking by strangers
Stranger than me
We talk of the future
Between you and me
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
Sweet little darling
Where will we be
It's hard to conceive it
All comes to an end
A joke when it's funny, well...
I laugh and pretend
We're fools to believe it
We're fools to try
To slow down this seemingly nonstop july.

Melanie
Melanie is sweet
A vision on her feet
So young so fair
A bridge of iron
Standing tall between two parted spheres
Shes a novelty of reality
Though she tried so hard
My sweet darling melanie
Shes glad for what shes had
Her mom and several dads so she complained
This modern love affair
With life can really get you down
Shes a novelty of reality
But she tried so hard my sweet darling melanie
Ooh but life goes on
Ooh the same old song
Ooh but loves in search of mystery
So you worked so hard my sweet darling melanie
Over the horizon
Birds of paradise sit in her eyes
You can feel forever on her sweet and silken sighs
Shes novelty of reality
So she tried so hard my sweet darling melanie
Na, na, na
Shes novelty of reality
So she tried so hard my sweet darling melanie
So she tried so hard my sweet darling melanie
Na, na, na...

Years May Come
(howard houston)
Producer for bonnie: howard houston
Heartaches and so much pain
Cry out to you in vain
Ill keep my promises, oh darling
Dont let this sweet love die
So many reasons why
Ill keep my promises oh darling, oh yeah
Ill wait for you my sweet love
*years may come
And years may go
Still theres one thing that I know
That my heart is only beating
Just for you, darling
Only a fool would let you go
I will always love you so
For my heart is only waiting just for you

Jealous words have no fear
Ill keep my promises, sweet darling, oh, oh
I adore you my, sweet love

The Mess
You sailed away one night in june
I heard you say you would be back soon
But since that day its been on long loon
Oh - sweet darling the mess Im in
I spoke to jimmy with the big tattoo
Said had he seen any sign of you
He looked at me and then laughed at you
See just wait a minute, oh darling what a mess Im in
When I want ya do I get ya

Love Isn't Easy
Do you remember the first time, and all of your sweet sweet talk
Ain't heard it a lot since then love
Now look at that guy, he's making me cry
He leaves everybody and he only says goodbye
But if i would have to choose i wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and you will see our love will grow
Darling i know
We gotta have patience
Love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving love is a reason for living
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
From the first moment i saw you i've treated you like a queen
I've given you lots of presents
Now listen to that, just look at that cat
You'd think he was an angel but he's talking through his hat
But if i would have to choose i wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and you will see our love will grow
Darling i know
We gotta have patience
Love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love is a reason for living
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Patience
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love isn't just a sensation
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love is a reason for living
(sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is hard enough

Real Good Looking Boy
When I think back to the
first time in my childhood
When I saw that face
I thought right then,
'That's a real good looking boy.'
I saw myself in the mirror
in profile
for the first time
I thought,
'Hey! That's a real good looking boy'
And I felt then
that I moved
With all those lucky bucks and angels
High in the theatre
In the sky
So I went to my mother
I said,
'Hey mom - take look at me'
Have you ever seen a teen
Fly so high?
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
She said,
'Son, well, you know,
you're ugly boy.
You don't really look like him.
In this long line
There's been some
real strange genes
You've got 'em all
You've got 'em all
With some extras thrown in
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
Wise men say
Only fools, only fools rush in
But I - I give in
Falling in love, in love with you
Now I'm here with you little darling
And you say, 'You're beautiful as you are'
And I've managed somehow to survive
You arrived in my life like a fragrance
And helped me find a way to laugh
And I know now so-called beauty lies
God gave him a face
Then he gave me something above
God gave me grace
Then he gave me your sweet, sweet, sweet love
You make me feel like a real good looking boy
I feel like a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy
That's a real good looking boy

Running Out Of Fools
Sure you havent got the wrong number
Sure its me you want to talk to tonight
Everyone in towns got your number
Everyone in towns got you pegged just right
Is that why you got in touch with me
I guess you must be running out of fools
Even when you left me there crying
Your goodbye was even colder than ice
You didnt care that you left me there crying
Now you wanna break my heart twice
Is that why you got in touch with me
I guess you must be running out of fools
I guess you got back to my name in your little black book
Hey guess what I bet you forgot how I even look
So go ahead with all your sweet talking
Go ahead for all the good it will do
Have yourself a dimes worth of talking
Then Im gonna hang right up on you
Cause this time youre not getting through to me
I guess you must be running out of fools
Even fools like me
Even fools like me
I guess youre running out of fools
Even fools like me

Call On Me
Well, baby, when times are bad,
Now call on me, darling, and i'll come to you.
When you're in trouble and feel so sad,
Now call on me, darling, come on call on me, and i'll help you.
Yeah!
A man and a woman have each other, baby,
To find their way in this world.
Yeah!
I need you, darling, like the fish needs the sea,
And don't take your sweet, your sweet love from me.
Now baby, when you're down and feel so blue,
And know you won't drown, darling, i'll be there too.
You're not alone, i'm there too,
And whatever your troubles, darling, i don't care.
A man and a woman have each other, baby,
To find their way in this world. yeah! alright!
I need you, darling, like the fish needs the sea,
Don't take your sweet, sweet love from me!
Please! so baby, when times are bad,
Call on me, darling, just call on me.

How To Make You Funny?
How to make you funny?
And you are always funny,
You hide it and
It is still funny,
And that makes me laugh.
How to make you serious?
And you can not be serious,
Funny is funny,
And being seriously funny is not that funny,
And you laugh.
How to tell you a joke?
And you are the funniest joke
That makes you more funny and serious
While you are drinking and thinking
At the risk
Of spilling the juice of your lips
At my laugh.

Here Comes The Sun
George harrison
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, and I say its all right
Little darling, its been a long cold lonely winter little darling, it feels like years since its been here here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say its all right
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces little darling, it seems like years since its been here here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say its all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting little darling, it seems like years since its been clear here comes the sun, here comes the sun, and I say its all right
Its all right

Stand-Up Comedians
Stand-up comedians so funny
Joke around to earn their money
They’re never funny sitting down
But when standing vertically upright
Their comedic humor is out of sight
Funny-ing as they act like stand-up clowns
They just can’t be funny or sassy
Sitting on their sorry assy’s
Perpendicular they invite loud guffaws
And with their joke-around renditions
In their stand-around positions
They welcome all appreciative applause
When they’re on stage it is behooved
To have all the sit-down chairs removed
So they can fill the halls with tons of laughter
So these stand-up fools so funny
Can earn rafts of funny money
The house is filled with laughs up to the rafter

I Can't Function
I'm working hard from morning till night
My shoulder bend into the wheel
I get home, you start to run me down
How do you think it makes me feel
Your lashing turn
It hurts my soul
I start to think
And I lose control
I'm not moving like I know I should
Or feeling like I'd like to feel
And I spend my days just fooling around
I can't function,
Honey when you run me down
Oh darling don't you run me down
I gotta make a little fortune
So I can bring it on home to you
You're only hurting yourself my friend
Treating me te way you do
My hands are tied behind my back
I'm drinking dinner from a paper sack
Every day is the fourth of july
And I'm nothing but an april fool
Well I spend my days just cruising around
I can't function
Honey when you run me down
Oh darling don't you run me down
[Solo]
I'm half a man
With half a heart
I hear you laughing
And I fall apart
I'd like to put it on the table
But I'm lost before I even start
You do me wrong and it's bringing me down
My idle ways are the talk of the town
You make me feel like a do-nothing-clown
I can't function
Honey when you run me down
Oh darling don't you run me down
Oh darling don't you run me down

One day hell make everything alright

What About You
Theres something about you that I cant let go
Your spell is unbroken and it hurts to know
And I can feel you, and I can touch you, your memories surround me
What about you, little darling, what about you
Living without you is a long hard climb
And just when Im over it, I see a friend of mine
He said he saw you, and how hes sure you, youd like us still together
What about you, little darling, what about you
What about you, little darling, what about you
They said that we were dreamers, chasing some illusion
Something came between us, and broke it all in two
(solo)
I can feel you, I can touch you, I want us back together
So what about you, little darling, what about you
What about you, little darling, what about you
What about, what about you babe, tell me, what about you
Dont go, Im tellin you baby
What about you babe, oh baby...

Being Funny
My second choice is being funny,
my first is being sweet,
if not as treacle or as honey
at least as sugar beet,
but since more naturally I'm sour,
with sweetness not my style,
I'll try to make you laugh, not glower,
and swallow all your bile,
by being funny, if I can,
for if you laugh you may
believe that I'm the sweetest man
you've met, at least today.
Roy Blount Jr. ('Be Sweet: A Conditional Love Story, ' Alfred A. Knopf,1998) says:
Woody Allen once told an interviewer that being funny 'is always a second choice.' The first choice, I guess, is being.....sweet. Or happy, or something.'

Do I Ever Cross Your Mind
Oh, sometimes I go walking through fields where we walked
Long ago in the sweet used to be
And the flowers still grow, but they dont smell as sweet
As they did when you picked them for me
Chorus:
And when I think of you and the love we once knew
How I wish we could go back in time
Do you ever think back on old memories like that
Or do I ever cross your mind
Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night
Because you miss me, do you darling
Oh, and do your memories ever take
You back into another place in time
And do you ever miss the feelings
And the love we shared when you were with me, tell me darling
Or do I ever cross your mind
Oh, how often I wish that again I could kiss
Your sweet lips like I did long ago
And how often I long for those two loving arms
That once held me so gentle and close
Repeat chorus
