Dont Wrap It Up
(carly simon)
Ill take some of this, Ill have some of that
And several more of these
Now that I see it, I know what I like
So Ill like it if you please
I aint nobodys princess, stuck in sunday school
So Ill help myself to love
And have the whole career
Dont wrap it up, Ill eat it here
Just look at you now, the ultimate guy
Class and wit and style
Once I might have pretended, to be someone else
Attracting you with guile
But now Im not about to dress up, in some other womans shoes
Ive got nothing to lose
So Ill help myself to love,
Gather round and cheer
Dont wrap it up, Ill eat it here
Ive stood there patiently waiting in line
A take-out mans an o.k. plan
If youve got lots of time
Especially if hes biodegradable
I aint nobodys princess
I aint nobodys fool
So Ill help myself to love
Theres nothing more to fear
Dont wrap it up, Ill eat it here

If I should take a notion
To jump into the ocean,

And I shimmy down on monday,

And if my friend aint got no money
And I say, all right, take all of mine honey,

If I lend her my last nickel
And it leaves me in a pickle,
It aint nobodys business if I do.
I would rather my gal would hit me
Than to haul right up and quit me.
It aint nobodys business if I do.

If she gets beat up by her poppa.
It aint nobodys business if I do, lord no.

Thunder & Lightning
I thought it was love
That hurt so bad,
But all of this time I was a fool being had.
Now its the last stop for you, baby,
On my gravy train.
Well, I dont understand
How I could be so short of memory,
How I could just leave my pride in the rain.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
You played with my mind,
Baby, much too long.
You played with my head
Until all feelin was gone.
Now Im out of patience and money,
And my heart is numb.
You kept me in the dark,
But now I finally see some daylight.
Ive got a chance.
Im gonna run, baby, run.
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.
Nobodys gonna pull this thing back together.
Its too far out of hand.
If you wanna give it one more try,
Try it with another man.
[guitar interlude]
No more thunder and lightning.
Nobodys gonna wrap me round their finger.
No more thunder and lightning.
Aint gonna let you treat me like a prisoner.

Nobodys Business
What a fool to step into those shoes
Either way you know they win or lose
You know money talks
Your eyes they aint so blue
You love to watch the green-backs walk
You got a five-buck side-pack
Tell me, tell me someone stop this pain
Its your place I was in a rage insane
I wanted your love so bad
But your eyes are never blue
Droolin over green-back poolin
You got a five-buck side-pack
Well I must have been right about something
Yes to make it to here and to tell you something
Cause nobodys business but my own
Nobodys business but my own
Well I must have been mad about something
Cause Im m a d and I spell it for nothing
Cause nobodys business but my own
Nobodys business but my own
What a fool to step into those shoes
Either way you know they[you? ] win or lose
You know money talks
Your eyes so paralysed
Dont you realise
For love and hate its just too late

Nobodys Fool
From the bright busy streets of the charing cross road
To the dark little alleys in old soho
From the smart noisy clubs where everybody goes
To the dark little streets that nobody knows
I couldnt care if the people dont notice me
They wouldnt know that I really exist
Im nobodys shelter, Im nobodys cover
Im nobodys lover, and nobodys friend
Im so use to lying and pretending
Im nobodys fool and Im nobodys friend
I can go for a walk on a crowded street
And see millions of faces staring at me
Some of them smiling, some of them glare
But most of them dont even know that Im there
Thats how I want to be cause no one belongs to me
Im nobodys fool and Im nobodys friend
Nobody pleads for me, nobody bleeds for me
Im nobodys fool and Im nobodys friend
Im so use to lying and pretending
Im nobodys fool and Im nobodys friend

Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
No-bod-o-dy lonesome for me.
Evrybodys pinin for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me
Evrybodys crazy bout somebody else
But nobodys crazy bout me
Oh, I shined up my shoes and then I slicked down my hair
Put on my sunday suit, but I aint goin nowhere
Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me.
Evrybodys yearnin for somebody else
But nobodys lonesome for me
Evrybodys fallin for somebody else
But nobodys fallin for me
Now I aint had a kiss since I fell out of my crib
It looks to me like I been cheated out of my rib
Evrybodys lonesome for somebody else
No-bod-o-dy lonesome for me.

Secretly Cruel
I saw my pictures hangin on her wall
She cut it out of that magazine
It was a hot day, she wore lingerie
And nothin else in between, ooh
She had long hair and thigh high snake skin boots
And she was all over me like a cheap suit
Then she bared herself, aha
And stripped my soul
Began to shake, rattle, and roll
Then I took control, yeah
But I know shes secretly cruel
I aint nobodys fool
Yeah, I know shes secretly cruel
Just when I though it was safe
She puts her lips to my face
Shes secretly, secretly cruel
Well she grabbed my hair
And I began to rise
I could tell what she wanted
By that look in her eyes, oh, ow
By that look in her eyes, yeah
I said come here babe and make it quick
She said not so fast
And had a drink
Well it aint just luck
But I better knock on wood
Shes gonna give me everything
Somehow I knew she would
Oh, but I know shes secretly cruel
I aint nobodys fool
Well, I know shes secretly cruel
I said baby youre the fire, but I am the fuel
Shes secretly, secretly cruel
Yeah, so cruel
Well it aint just luck (aint just luck)
But I better knock on wood, yeah
Shes gonna give me everything

Fall back, take a look at me

And if that dont appeal to you

Better when my colors show
And thats the way it has to be

Could never bloom

Stand Up
Stand up
Try a little bit of love
And a bit of persuasion
I heard love, plus loves
A universal equation
But dont let somebody push you round
You gotta stand up
Stand up
You got something to say
Dont sit there and pout it
Put your feet on the seat
Stand up and shout it
And dont let somebody sit you down
Stand up
You wanna own the world
You want it stuffed and mounted
You cant do it sitting down
Stand up and be counted
But if you wanna break the rules
Stand up
This aint no movie theater
This aint a classroom
Nobodys gonna tell you what to do
So come on everybody, get up
I want you
Stand up
Lets see a little upward motion
Youve got to clap your hands
If you wanna commotion
But dont let nobody sit you down
Stand up
Try a little bit of love
And a bit of persuasion
I heard love, plus loves
A universal equation
But dont let somebody push you round
You gotta stand up

You Better Ask
Written by john curulewski
Lead vocals by john curulewski
I met a little girl sittin in the front
Pardon me miss for seeming quite so blunt
But your beauty and your presence
Just took me by surprise
She said theres a meaning in my sexy stare
But thats my old man thats sittin over there
And thats not the look of love that hes got for you in his eyes
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
I took her home and we was doing nip and tuck
How was I to know that I was out of luck
And before I knew it, the devil took my soul
In two weeks time it seemed to be the steady con
She told me youre about to be a papa, john
And I just looked around and tried to crawl into the nearest hole
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
[instrumental solos]
Well, in two more weeks I started feelin sore
I found myself waiting at my doctors door
He said, son Im sorry but Ive got some slightly less than tragic news
Yeah, it seems youve been sociable with certain shes
Cause youve contracted what we call a social disease
And next time you better ask and use it, no dont refuse
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you
Nobodys gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask
You know what youve gotta do
Theres no one else to blame but you

I Dont Have To Crawl

When you look at me
Like you dont know me
And you talk to me
Like youve never met me
I can leave you alone if I try
If I tried I could tell you goodbye
If I wanted to
I could be long gone
And I dont have to crawl
Then you call on me
As if I should run to you
You make your move
As if I should follow you
Well I dont have to be nobodys fool
I wont make no exception of you
I dont have to be nobodys fool

Nobodys Business
I went out in the darkness
Just searching for someplace to be
Wasnt looking for trouble
I guess it was looking for me
And I knew I was wasting my time
But it was nobodys business
Nobodys business but mine
I was taking some comfort
I needed a break from the rain
I guess I was mistaken
And someone remembered my name
But I knew I was doin just fine
And it was nobodys business
Nobodys business but mine
Well I guess for some
Revenge is sweet
Though it be once removed
I hope you feel better
I dont know what you proved
Well, yonder comes the emperor, boys
He sure looks fine in blue
I hope you feel better, babe
I know youre scared too
Well it sure makes you wonder
The things that some people will say
They can see black and white but they
Dont seem to notice the gray
What a price for a victimless crime
When it was nobodys business
Nobodys business but mine
Yeah, it was nobodys business
Nobodys business but mine

Nobodys You
Please dont
Go away dont
Leave me to face the crowds alone
Oh dont you know youre my home
Please stay, just one more night stay
Then if you must move on without me
Wait til my wits are about me
Deep in your heart know though Ill start anew
Nobodys you
I will always compare them always
To you, no they dont stand a chance
Theyll try poor souls but wont come close
Save me, dance close and save me
Truth be known I will not be whole
Without you here to hold
But if you must go like lovers often do
Know nobodys you
Oh if its pleasure I seek then pleasure Ill find
Ill even go so far as to say
A treasure will be mine
But, oh theres gold and then theres
Diamonds my darling
Precious and few a gem of the earth the
Magic of you
Give in, go on and give in
I am what you are to me too
A light in a dark room
Try as they do
Nobodys you
Though they move me too
