If He Changed My Name
Macgimsey
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name
And he told me that I would go hungry if he changed my name
But I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
I told jesus it would be alright if he changed my name
So I told him it would be alright and the world would hate me
That I would go hungry if he changed my name

Im The Greatest
When I was a little boy,
Way back home in liverpool,
My mama told me, I was great.
Then when I was a teenager,
I knew that I had got something going,
All my friends told me I was great.
And now Im a man,
A woman took me by the hand,
And you know what she told me...i was great.
I was in the greatest show on earth,
For what it was worth.
Now Im only thirty-two;
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo!
Hey!
I looked in the mirror,
I saw my wife and kids,
And you know what they told me...i was great.
Yes, my name is billy shears,
You know it has been for so many years.
Now Im only thirty-two;
And all I wanna do, is boogaloo!
Hey, hey, hey, (hey, hey, hey) yeah!
(hey, hey, hey)
Im the greatest and you better believe it, baby!
Ho! ho! ho!
Im gonna be the greatest in this world, (ho!)
In the next world and in any world! (hey!)

It's Alright
Told you once about your friends and neighbours
They were always seeking but they'll never find it
It's alright, yes it's alright
Where to go and where to see
It's always been this way and it can never be
It's alright, yes it's alright
Give it all and ask no return
And very soon you'll see and you'll begin to learn
That's it's alright, yes it's alright
Don't you know that it's so good for you
You can be making love and see it all go through
But it's alright, yes it's alright

If I Told You That
Now tell me how you feel if I told
You that I have feelings for you
Ansd would it be so wrong to say
Whats on my mind
Im sorry I have to
We were friends but with time
What I feel inside for you has changed
But Id give up on love, if I thought
That it was untrue for you
(if I told you that) I wanted to see you
(and if I told you that) I beg to please you
(if I told you that) Ill always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)
I know that we were just friends
But what if I decide to bring somethings in
I hope it wont offend the trust
We have cause I dont want this to end
I you think that well lose what we have
Then Id just rather stay (rather stay) the same
(Id rather stay the same)
Cause I dont wanna choose
Between two of the most precious things to me
(tell me)
(if I told you that) I wanted to see you
(and if I told you that) I beg to please you
(if I told you that) Ill always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)
If we take this chance and extend
To each other romance
I hope it would be
The right thing for you and me
(if I told you that) I wanted to see you
(and if I told you that) I beg to please you
(if I told you that) Ill always keep you
What would you say (if I told you that)
Would you be there for me
Could you dare to hold me
Will my feelings leave me
Lonely if I told you

To A Friend Who Had A Free Lunch With Me...
it's been long,
actually, i have forgotten, that place where we used to be,
i changed, i have told you i know myself,
i changed, i will not tell you that i have changed,
it will be as bitter as a detachment,
of a clover foot, divided into two pieces,
it will be still soft, but it will be more of slipping white sands
between my fingers,
i do not understand myself, so how can i ever understand you.
you sit on a table fronting me, yet, i do not see you completely
in the same manner, that i put my body here, but my mind is flying
like a kite somewhere, while my fingers pretend that i still have
a grasp about flying strings and wings and thoughts,
it's been long, and i talk to you, but i never mean each word,
actually, i do not like the color of that plate, the way the spoon and
fork are put parallel to each other,
the tea tastes like hell.
i could have told you, the tea really tastes like hell,
i have changed,
now i am dishonest.

Today I Should Have Told You
today i should have told you
something so true
something so painful
something that can make a twist
of our universe
the planets may fall
and stars explode
the meteors may regret
their long tails of light
today i should have told you
about you and me
i could have told you about a river
that changed its course
and left an island of loneliness
at the middle of that deep blue part
but i changed my mind
there is something in you that is not prepared
you are the flower still blooming
at the height of this drought
and i am the cloud that simply vanished
i do not contain any rain
i am afraid you do not notice this
i am nothing i am useless

So Soon We Change
(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger)
Seems like only yesterday
We were laughing like a couple of kids
Fun we had when first met
Aint been around much since
Sharing every hour every day
Funny how time slips away
But theres no replacement, baby
When the good times fade away
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we change
Oh how soon we changed
You remember caseys bar
And maxfields after dark
We were different people then
Inseparable never apart
But now the novelty is wearing thin
We spend most time arguing
It was all so easy then
Itll never be again
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
I thought I knew you inside out
But obviously I was wrong
Makes no difference what I say
We just dont get along
Face the facts it can never last
Were driffing apart real fast
Id gladly give up everything
To start all over again
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed

We're Doin' Alright
You must have been an angel once yourself
You know how it feels
The best things fall from the highest shelf
And break up your heels.
We were in the middle of something
We didn't understand
Our hearts that were broken
Are back in the mend.
We're doing alright, we're doing alright
Now the heartache is over
Over and done, and nobody wants
But we're doing alright.
You need a little something sometimes
But everybody does
And everyday everywhere
Something's changed.
It wasn't always this good
Somedays were few with fame
And in the heat of the night
I call your name.
We're doing alright, we're doing alright
Now the heartache is over
Over and done, and nobody wants
But we're doing alright.
Hearts beat alone just as well
Now you're rolling home, I can tell...

What Changed?
what changed between us?
was it me r u?
its not like i need us
because all i wonted was you.
i thought everything was fine,
but maybe i slipped up,
i thought everything was alright,
but now...
not so much.
what changed you,
into some kind of beast,
you use to mean the world to me.
and now you have lost your touch,
come on, tell me whats up.
we use to be the best of friends,
you and i went hand in hand.
...like Frosty and the Santa Claus man...
what changed,
was it u and i? or u and me?
i don't know were i'm suppose to be.
because once, i thought it was beside you, but now,
that just couldn't be true...so...did i change u?

Struggle
There was a hint of danger
They told him its ok
There was a chance of failure
They told him its alright
A false security driven by
A weakened state of mind
Its calling and calling
He had a big decision
They told him its ok
Bound by his inhibitions
They told him its alright
Time for reality
Time to gain control of his own life
Its calling and calling
Do you know what is wrong?
Try to keep it in line
You cant go back (cant go back)
There must be something
He tried
Once was not enough
They told him its alright
He tried
Wasnt good enough
That doesnt make it right

Fancy Dan
Fancy Dan had a big sedan
which he raced around the road,
its alright he told everyone
I have driven around these roads for years
and I know them like the back of my hand.
That I could do it with my eyes closed,
nothing ever changed
until one day his sedan he rearranged
and after the accident everyone asked what went wrong,
we though you knew these roads like the back of your hand.
I did but on that morning something changed, without warning
and I did not see it coming
as I was driving with my eyes closed.
Now Fancy Dan has to buy a brand new model sedan
and maybe he’ll remember
everything changes from one day to another.
You might think you know something well,
but you never know it at all.
Tomorrow it will change
and if you ignore that premise,
it might be you next time
that gets to rearrange.

In Michigan
Well my mother rolled over and died in michigan
My dog got hit by a truck and I cried in michigan
I got drunk and puked up my guts in michigan
But Im alright, Im alright, Im alright, Im alright
And man Im riding here tonight in michigan
I ran a race and came in dead last in michigan
Yeah, I shot myself in the ass in michigan
I was lookin for someplace to feel free but they busted my for just
Being me in michigan
But alright, its alright, its alright, its alright
And baby Im riding high tonight in michigan
I ran into a little bad luck in michigan
I met a woman ? ? ?
Baby Im running late but you got here one hell of a state
In michigan

Surrender
Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you.
She also told me, "Stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch."
Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that's
going round.
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.
Father says, "Your mother's right, she's really up on things."
"Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines."
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war.
But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years.
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Ev'ry time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?
When I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch.
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.
Away.
Away.

Forever Changed
Train entering the city
I lost myself and never came back
Took a trip around the world and never came back
Black silhouettes, crisscrossed tracks, never came back
Forever changed
Forever changed
You might think Im frivolous, uncaring and cold
You might think Im empty, depends on your point of view
Society andy who paints and records them
The high and the low, never turn back
Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed
Got to get to the city, get a job
Got to get some work to see me through
My old lifes behind, I see it receding
My lifes disappearing, disappearing from view
Hong kong and I was changed
Burma, thailand and I was changed
A few good friends to see me through
Henry and brigid to see me through
Only art to see me through
Only heart to see me through
My old lifes disappearing, disappearing from view
Forever changed
Forever changed
I was forever changed
