American Pie

A long, long time ago,

I can still remember how that music used to make me smile.

And I knew if I had my chance

Page 3 of 20 that I could make those people dance, and maybe they'd be happy for a while.

But February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver.

Bad news on the doorstep

I couldn't take one more step.

I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride, but something touched me deep inside the day the music died.

So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

Did you write the Book of Love, and do you have faith in God above if the Bible tells you so?

Do you believe in rock 'n roll?

Can music save your mortal soul?

And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

Well, I know that you're in love with him

'cause I saw you dancin' in the gym.

You both kicked off your shoes, man, I dig those rhythm and blues.

I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck, but I knew I was out of luck the day the music died.

I started singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

Now for ten years we've been on our own and moss grows fat on a rollin' stone.

But that's not how it used to be when the jester sang for the King and Queen in a coat he borrowed from James Dean.

And a voice that came from you and me.

Oh, and while the King was looking down the jester stole his thorny crown.

The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned.

And while Lennon read a book of Marx, the quartet practiced in the park.

And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died.

We were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

Helter Skelter in a summer swelter the Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and falling fast.

It landed foul out on the grass

the players tried for a forward pass with the jester on the sidelines in a cast.

Now the half-time air was sweet perfume, while the Sergeants played a marching tune we all got up to dance,

Oh, but we never got the chance,

'cause the players tried to take the field

But the marching band refused to yield.

Do you recall what was revealed the day the music died?

We started singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

Oh, and there we were all in one place a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again.

So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick

Jack Flash sat on a candlestick

'cause fire is the Devil's only friend.

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage my hands were clenched in fists of rage.

No angel born in hell could break that Satan's spell, and as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrifical rite,

I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died.

He was singing

Page 4 of 20 bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away.

I went down to the sacred store where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music woudn't play.

And in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.

But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken.

And the three men I admire most,

The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost, they caught the last train for the coast the day the music died.

And they were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, and them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.

They were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry, them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye singin' this'll be the day that I die.

Angel Of Harlem

It was a cold and wet December day

When we touched the ground at JFK

Snow was melting on the ground

On BLS I heard the sound

Of an angel

New York, like a Christmas tree

Tonight this city belongs to me

Angel

Soul love...this love won't let me go

So long...angel of Harlem

Birdland on fifty-three

The street sounds like a symphony

We got John Coltrane and a love supreme

Miles says she's got to be an angel

Lady Day got diamond eyes

She sees the truth behind the lies

Angel

Soul love...this love won't let me go

So long...angel of Harlem

Angel of Harlem

She says it's heart...heart and soul...

Yeah yeah...(yeah)

Yeah yeah...(right now)

Blue light on the avenue

God knows they got to you

An empty glass, the lady sings

Eyes swollen like a bee sting

Blinded you lost your way

Through the side streets and the alleyway

Like a star exploding in the night

Falling to the city in broad daylight

An angel in Devil's shoes

Salvation in the blues

You never looked like an angel

Yeah yeah...angel of Harlem

Angel...angel of Harlem...

[Repeat and fade]

Bicycle Built For Two (Daisy,

Daisy)

Daisy, Daisy, give me you answer true.

I'm half-crazy all for the love of you.

It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage;

But you'll look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for two.

Henry, Henry, here is your answer true;

I'm not crazy over the likes of you.

If YOU can't afford a carriage, forget about the marriage;

'Cause I won't be jammed, I won't be crammed on a bicycle built for two.

Blowing In The Wind

How many roads must a man walk down

Before you call him a man

How many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand

How many times must the cannon balls fly

Page 5 of 20

Before they're forever banned

The answer my friend

Is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind

How many times must a mountain exist

Before it's washed to the sea

How many years can some people exist

Before they;re allowed to be free

How many times can a man turn his head

Pretending he just doesn't see

The answer my friend

Is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind

How many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky

How many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry

How many deaths will it till he knows

That too many people have died

The answer my friend

Is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind

Boom-Chicka-Boom

I says a-boom-chicka-boom!

I says a-boom-chicka-boom! (Group echoes)

I says a-boom-chicka-rocka-chicka-rocka-chickaboom!(Group echoes)

Uh-huh! (Group echoes)

On Yeah! (Group echoes)

One more time! (Group echoes)

A little . . . . LOUDER! (Group echoes)

Each time a leader adds a different variation such as:

QUIETER, POSHER

Bravo Bravissimo

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo, Bravissimo

Bravo, Bravo, Very well done

Bravo, Bravissimo

Bravo, Bravissimo

Bravo, Bravissimo, Very well done

Budgerigar Song

I’m a little Budgerigar,

With a big tummy ache,

‘Cause the people that I live with are so stingy.

They feed me herring every day and

I don’t like that no way.

Yes, I’d rather,

Yes, I’d rather,

Coca Cola and Ice Cream.

Campfires Burning

Campfires burning, campfires burning

Draw nearer, draw nearer

In the gloaming, in the gloaming

Come sing and be merry

Clementine

In a cavern, in a canyon, excavating for a mine,

Lived a miner, forty-niner, and his daughter

Clementine.

CHORUS

Oh my darling, Oh my darling,

Oh my darling Clementine,

You are lost and gone forever, dreadful sorry, Clementine.

Light she was, and like a fairy, and her shoes were number nine,

Herring boxes without topses, sandals were for Clementine.

Drove she ducklings to the water every morning just at nine,

Hit her foot against a splinter, fell into the foaming brine.

Ruby lips above the water, blowing bubbles soft and fine,

Alas for me! I was no swimmer, so I lost my Clementine.

In a churchyard near the canyon, where the myrtle doth entwine,

There grow roses and other posies, fertilized by Clementine.

Then the miner, forty-niner, soon began to peak and pine,

Thought he oughter join his daughter, now he's with his Clementine.

In my dreams she still doth haunt me, robed in garments soaked in brine,

While in life I used to hug her, now she's dead I draw the line.

How I missed her, how I missed her, how I missed my Clementine,

Until I kissed her little sister, and forgot my Clementine.

Page 6 of 20

Now ye Scouts all heed the warning to this tragic tale of mine,

Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation would have saved my Clementine.

Consider Yourself At Home

Consider yourself at home

Consider yourself one of the family

We've taken to you so strong

It's clear, we're going to get along

Consider yourself well in

Consider yourself part of the furniture

There isn't alot to spare

Who cares, whatever we've got we'll share

If it should chance to be we should see

Some harder days, empty larder days

Why grouse?

Always a chance we'll meet

Somebody to foot the bill

Then the drinks are on the house

Consider yourself our mate

We don't want to have no fuss

For after some consideration we can state

Consider yourself one of us

Country House

(So the story begins)

City dweller

Successful fella

Thought to himself:

"Oops, I've got a lot of money

Caught in a rat race

Terminally

I'm a professional cynic

But my heart's not in it

I'm paying the price of living life at the limit

Caught up in the century's anxiety"

Yes, it preys on him

He's getting thin

He lives in a house

A very big house

In the country

Watching afternoon repeats

And the food he eats

In the country

He takes all manner of pills

And piles up analyst bills

In the country

Oh, it's like an animal farm

That's the rural charm

In the country

He's got morning glory and life's a different story

Everything's going Jackanory

Touched with his own mortality

He's reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac

It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland

Oh, it's a century's remedy

For the faint at heart

A new start

(Try the simple life)

He lives in a house

A very big house

In the country

He's got a fog in his chest

So he needs a lot of rest

In the country

He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh

Takes herbal baths

In the country

You should come to no harm

On the animal farm

In the country

In the country

In the Country

In the country

Blow, blow me out

I am so sad,

I don't know why

Don’t Look Back in Anger

Slip inside the eye of your mind

Don't you know you might find

A better place to play

You say that you've never been

But all the things that you've seen

Slowly fade away

So I start a revolution from my bed

‘Cause you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside the summertime's in bloom

Stand up besides the fireplace

Take that look from of your face

‘Cause you ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out

So Sally can wait, she knows its too late

As we're walking on by

Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger

I heard you say

Take me to a place where you go

Where nobody knows

If its night or day

Page 7 of 20

Please don't put your life in the hands

Of a Rock n Roll band

Who'll throw it all away

Everywhere We Go

Everywhere we go

Everywhere we go

People always ask us

People always ask us

Who we are

Who we are

Where we come from

Where we come from

We're from Dublin

We're from Dublin

Mighty, Mighty Dublin

Mighty, Mighty Dublin

And if they can't hear us

And if they can't hear us

We'll shout a little louder

We'll shout a little louder

(Repeat several times, louder each time until...

And if they can't hear us

THEY MUST BE DEAF!

)

Fields of Athenry

By the lonely prison wall.

I heard a young girl calling.

Michael, they are taking you away, for you stole Trevelyn's corn.

So the young might see the morn.

Now a prisonship lies waiting in the bay.

Low lie, the Fields of Athenry, where once we watched the small free birds fly. Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing.

It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry.

By a lonely prison wall

I heard a young man calling.

Nothing matters Mary when you're free,

Against the Famine and the Crown

I rebelled, they ran me down.

Now you must raise our child with dignity.

Chorus!

By a lonely harbour wall

She watched the last star falling.

And that prison ship sailed out against the sky.

Sure she'll wait and hope and pray, for her love in Botany Bay.

It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry

Get Back

Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner

But he knew it wouldn't last

Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona

For some California grass

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back Jojo

Go home

Get back, get back

Back to where you once belonged

Get back, get back

Back to where you once belonged

Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman

But she was another man

All the girls around her say she's got it coming

But she gets it while she can

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back Loretta

Go home

Get back, yea get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Get back, get back

Get back Loretta

Your mother's waiting for you

Wearing her high-heel shoes

And her low-neck sweater

Get back home Loretta

Get back, get back

Get back to where you once belonged

Head, Shoulders, Knees AND Toes

Head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.

Head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.

And Eye and ears, and a mouth and a nose.

Head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes.

[Touch the appropriate body part each time it's mentioned. Second time: don't say the word 'head' aloud, but still touch it. Each verse thereafter, add another body part that you touch but don't mention aloud.]

He Jumped Without a Parachute

He jumped without a parachute from twenty thousand feet (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

Glory glory what a hell of a way to die (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

He landed on the pavement like a lump of strawberry jam (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

They put him in a match box and they sent him home to mum (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

She put on the mantel piece for everyone to see (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

She put him on the table when the Vicar came to tea

(x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

The Vicar spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam (x3)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

Hotel California

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

Had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway,

I heard the mission bell,

And I was thinking to myself,

This could be heaven or this could be hell

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way,

There were voices down the corridor, thought I heard them say:

Welcome to the Hotel California,

Such a lovely place, such a lovely face

Plenty of room at the Hotel California

Any time of year, you can find her here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,

She got the Mercedez Benz

She got a lot of pretty pretty boys

That she calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard,

sweet summer sweat,

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain: Please bring me some wine

He said we haven't had that spirit here since 1969

And still those voices were calling from far away

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say:

Welcome to the Hotel California, such a lovely place, such a lovely face

They're living up in the Hotel California

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis,

Mirrors on the ceiling, pink champagne on ice,

She said `We are just prisoners here of our own device'.

And in the master's chambers they gathered for the beast

They stab it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember I was running for the door

Had to find the passage back to the place I was before

`Relax' said the doorman,

`We are programmed to receive,

You can check out any time you like but you can never leave...'

If You're Happy and you know it

If you're happy and you know it

Clap your hands (x2)

If you're happy and you know it

And you really want to show it

Page 9 of 20

If you're happy and you know it

Clap your hands

If you're happy and you know it

...nod your head...

...stamp your feet...

...shout hello...

...do all four...

I Still Haven't Found What I'm

Looking For

I have climbed highest mountains

I have run through the fields

Only to be with you

Only to be with you

I have run, I have crawled

I have scaled these city walls

These city walls

Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips

Felt the healing in her fingertips

It burned like fire

This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels

I have held the hand of a devil

It was warm in the night

I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come

Then all the colors will bleed into one

Bleed into one

Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you

Loosed the chains

Carried the cross

Of my shame

Of my shame

You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...

Lean On Me

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain we all have sorrow

If, if we are wise

We know that there's

Always tomorrow

Page 10 of 20

Lean on me

When you're not strong

I'll be your friend

I'll help you carry on

For it won't be long till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride

If I have things you need to borrow for, no one can fill those of your needs that you won't let show

Lean on me...

You just call on me brother

When you need a hand

We all need somebody to lean on

I just might have a problem that you'd understand

We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me...

Let It Be

When I find myself in times of trouble,

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

And in my hour of darkness, she is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

Let it be, let it be,

Let it be, let it be,

Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

And when the broken hearted people

Living in the world agree

There will be an answer, Let it be,

For they may be parted,

There is still a chance that they will see,

There will be an answer, Let it be

Little Rabbit Frew Frew

Little rabbit Frew Frew

Hopping through the forest

Scooping up the field mice

And bopping them on the head

When along came the Good Fairy and she said

Little rabbit Frew Frew

I don't like you attitude

Scooping up the field mice

And bopping them on the head

So I'm going to give you three chances and if you don't behave I'm going to turn you into a goon

[2 chances, 1 chance]

When along came the Good Fairy and she said

Little rabbit Frew Frew

I don't like you attitude

Scooping up the field mice

And bopping them on the head

I've given you three chance and you didn't behave So

I'm going to turn you into a goon

And the moral of this story is Hare today, Goon tomorrow

Lola

I met her in a club down in old Soho

Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola

See-oh-el-aye cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola

El-oh-el-aye Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy

But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine

Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand

Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man

Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night

Under electric candlelight

She picked me up and sat me on her knee

And said dear boy won't you come home with me

Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy

But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola

La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

I pushed her away

I walked to the door

I fell to the floor

I got down on my knees

Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that's the way that I want it to stay

And I always want it to be that way for my Lola

La-la-la-la Lola

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls

It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola

La-la-la-la Lola

Page 11 of 20

Well I left home just a week before

And I'd never ever kissed a woman before

But Lola smiled and took me by the hand

And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man

But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man

And so is Lola

La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Molly Malone

In Dublin's fair city where the girls are so pretty

I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone

As she wheeled her wheelbarrow,through streets broad and narrow

Crying cockles and mussles alive,alive-oh.

Alive,alive-oh.Alive,alive-oh.

Crying cockles and mussles,alive,alive-oh.

She was a fishmonger and sure 'twas no wonder

For so were her father and mother before

They both wheeled their barrows through streets broad and narrow

Crying cockles and mussles alive,alive-oh.

Alive,alive-oh.Alive,alive-oh.

Crying cockles and mussles,alive,alive-oh.

She died of a fever and noone could save her

And that was the end of sweet Molly Molone

But her ghost wheels her barrow through streets broad and narrow

Crying cockles and mussles alive,alive-oh.

Alive,alive-oh.Alive,alive-oh.

Crying cockles and mussles,alive,alive-oh.

Oh Sir Jasper

Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,

Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,

Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,

As she lay between the lilly white sheets with nothing on at all.

(Omit the last word of first 3 lines each verse)

One

Is it getting better

Or do you feel the same

Will it make it easier on you now

You got someone to blame

You say...

One love

One life

When it's one need

In the night

One love

We get to share it

Leaves you baby if you

Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you

Or leave a bad taste in your mouth

You act like you never had love

And you want me to go without

Well it's...

Too late

Tonight

To drag the past out into the light

Page 12 of 20

We're one, but we're not the same

We get to

Carry each other

Carry each other

One...

Have you come here for forgiveness

Have you come to raise the dead

Have you come here to play Jesus

To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much

More than a lot

You gave me nothing

Now it's all I got

We're one

But we're not the same

Well we

Hurt each other

Then we do it again

You say

Love is a temple

Love a higher law

Love is a temple

Love the higher law

You ask me to enter

But then you make me crawl

And I can't be holding on

To what you got

When all you got is hurt

One love

One blood

One life

You got to do what you should

One life

With each other

Sisters

Brothers

One life

But we're not the same

We get to Carry each other

Carry each other

One...life

One

Parklife

Confidence is a preference

For the habitual voyeur of what is known as

And morning soup can be avoided

If you take a route straight through what is known as

John's got brewer's droop

He gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons

They love a bit of it

Who's that gut lord marching

You should cut down on your porklife, mate

Get some exercise

All the people

So many people

And they all go

Hand in hand

Hand in hand through their

Parklife

I get up when I want

Except on Wednesdays

When I get rudely awakened by the dustmen

I put my trousers on

Have a cup of tea

And I think about leaving the house

I feed the pigeons

I sometimes feed the sparrows too

It gives me a sense of enormous well-being

And then I'm happy for the rest of the day

Safe in the knowledge

There will always be

A bit of my heart devoted to it

All the people

So many people

And they all go

Hand in hand

Hand in hand through their

Parklife

It's got nothing to do with yer

Vorsprung durch technic, you know

And it's not about you joggers

Who go round and round and round

Pride (In the Name of Love)

One man come in the name of love

One man come and go

One man come, he to justify

One man to overthrow

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

One man caught on a barbed wire fence

One man he resist

One man washed on an empty beach.

One man betrayed with a kiss

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

Early morning, April 4

Shot rings out in the Memphis sky

Page 13 of 20

Free at last, they took your life

They could not take your pride

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

In the name of love

What more in the name of love

In the name of love

What more in the name of love...

Quartermaster's Store

There are rats, rats, as big as alley cats

In the store, in the store

There are rats, rats, as big as alley cats

In the Quartermaster's store

My eyes are dim, I can not see

I have not brought my specks with me

I have not brought my specks with me

She'll be comin' 'round the mountain when she comes. (Whoo, whoo!)

She'll be comin' 'round the mountain when she comes. (Whoo, whoo!)

She'll be comin' 'round the mountain, comin' 'round the mountain

Show Me The Way To Go Home

Show me the way to go home,

I'm tired and I want to go to bed.

Oh, I had a little drink about an hour ago, and it's gone right to my head.

Wherever I may roam, on land or sea or foam.

You will always hear me singing this song:

Show me the way to go home.

Singing In The Rain

We're singing in the rain, just singing in the rain.

What a glorious feeling, we're happy again.

Thumbs up! [Group echoes.]

A Roo-cha-cha, A Roo-cha-cha, A Roo-CHA-CHA-

CHA. [Group echoes.]

[Add each of the following, in turn:]

Elbows in, fists together, thumbs up, Knees bent,

Toes together, Bums back

Chest out, Chin down, Tongue out

Stand by me

When the night has come and the land is dark

And the moon is the only light I see,

No, I won't be afraid

No I won't be afraid

Just as long as you stand

Stand by me.

So darling, darling,

Stand by me

Oh stand by me,

Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon should crumble and fall or the mountain should crumble to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry,

No I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand,

Stand by me

Staring at the Sun

Summer stretching on the grass

Summer dresses pass

In the shade of a willow tree

Creeps a crawling over me

Over me and over you

Page 14 of 20

Stuck together with God's glue

It's going to get stickier too

It's been a long hot summer

Let's get under cover

Don't try too hard to think

Don't think at all

I'm not the only one

Staring at the sun

Afraid of what you'd find

If you took a look inside

I'm not just deaf and dumb

Staring at the sun

Not the only one

Who's happy to go blind

There's an insect in your ear

If you scratch it won't disappear

It's going to itch and burn and sting

You want to see what the scratching brings

Waves that leave me out of reach

Breaking on your back like a beach

Will we ever live in peace

'Cause those that can't do

Often have to

And those that can't do

Often have to preach

To the ones

Staring at the sun

Afraid of what you'll find

If you took a look inside

Not just deaf and dumb

Staring at the sun

I'm not the only one

Who'd rather go blind

Intransigence is all around

Military still in town

Armour plated suits and ties

Daddy just won't say goodbye

Referee won't blow the whistle

God is good but will He listen

I'm nearly great

But there's something missing

I left it in the duty free

But you never really belonged to me

You're not the only one

Staring at the sun

Afraid of what you'd find

If you stepped back inside

I'm not sucking on my thumb

I'm staring at the sun

Not the only one

Who's happy to go blind

Summer Nights (Grease)

Summer loving had me a blast

Summer loving happened so fast

I met a girl crazy for me

Met a boy cute as can be

Summer days drifting away to oh oh the summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

Did you get very far

Tell me more, tell me more

Like does he have a car

She swam by me she got a cramp

He ran by me got my suit damp

I saved her life she nearly drowned

He showed off splashing around

Summer sun somethings begun but oh oh the summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

Was it love at first sight?

Tell me more, tell me more

Did she put a fight?

Took her bowling in the arcade

We went strolling drank lemonade

We made out under the dock

We stayed out till ten o'clock

Summer fling don't mean a thing but oh oh the summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

But you don't gotta brag

Tell me more, tell me more

Cause he sounds like a drag

He got friendly holding my hand

She got friendly down in the sand

He was sweet just turned eightteen

Well she was good you know what I mean

Summer heat boy and girl meet but oh oh the summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

How much dough did he spend?

Tell me more, tell me more

Could she get me a friend?

It turned colder that's where it ends

So I told her we'd still be friends

Then we made our true love vow

Page 15 of 20

Wonder what she's doing now

Summer dreams ripped at the seams but oh those summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

Summertime

Summertime and the living is easy

Fish are jumping and the cotton is high

Oh, your dad is rich and your ma is good looking

So hush little baby, don't you cry

One of these mornings, you're gonna rise up shining

Then you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the skies

But till that morning, there ain't nothing to harm you

With your daddy and mammy standing by

Sunny Afternoon

The taxman's taken all my dough, and left me in this stately home, lazing on a sunny afternoon.

And I can't sail my yacht, he's taken everything I've got, all I got's this sunny afternoon.

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.

I gotta big fat mama trying to break me.

And I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury, lazing on a sunny afternoon.

In the summertime

In the summertime

In the summertime.

My girlfriend's gone off with my car,

And gone back to her ma and pa,

Telling tails of drunkenness and cruelty.

Now I'm sitting here, sipping at my ice cold beer, lazing on a sunny afternoon.

Help me, help me, help me sail away,

Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay.

'Cause I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury, lazing on a sunny afternoon.

In the summertime

In the summertime

In the summertime.

Taps (Day Is Done)

Day is done, gone the sun,

From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;

All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

Fading light, dims the sight,

And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.

From afar, drawing nigh, falls the night.

Thanks and praise, for our days,

'Neath the sun, 'neath the stars, neath the sky;

As we go, this we know, God is nigh.

Sun has set, shadows come,

Time has fled, Scouts must go to their beds

Always true to the promise that they made.

While the light fades from sight,

And the stars gleaming rays softly send,

To thy hands we our souls, Lord, commend.

The Green Fields Of France

Well how do you do, young Willie McBride, do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside.

And rest for a while 'neath the warm summer sun.

I've been working all day and I'm nearly done.

I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen when you joined the dead heroes of nineteen-sixteen.

I hope you died well and I hope you died clean. Or Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene.

Chorus:

Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly, did they sound the dead-march as they lowered you down.

And did the band play the Last post and chorus.

Did the pipes play the 'Flowers of the forest'.

And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind

In some faithful heart is your memory enshrined

Although you died back in nineteen sixteen

In that faithful heart are you forever nineteen

Or are you a stranger without even a name

Enclosed and forever behind the glass frame

In a old photograph, torn and battered and stained

And fade to yellow in a brown leather frame.

The sun now it shines on the green fields of France

There's a warm summer breeze. it makes the red poppies dance

And look how the sun shines from under the clouds

There's no gas, no barbed wire, there's no guns firing now

But here in this graveyard it's still no-man's-land

Page 16 of 20

The countless white crosses stand mute in the sand

To man's blind indifference to his fellow man

To a whole generation that were butchered and damned.

Now young Willie McBride I can't help but wonder why

Do all those who lie here know why they died

And did they believe when they answered the cause

Did they really believe that this war would end wars

Well the sorrows, the suffering, the glory. the pain

The killing and dying was all done in vain

For young Willie McBride it all happened again

And again, and again, and again, and again.

The House Of The Rising Sun

There is a house in New Orleans they call the Rising Sun

It's been the ruin of many a poor girl, oh God I know I'm one

Go tell your baby sister not to do what I have done

Shun that house in New Orleans they call the Rising Sun

If I had listened to what my mama said,

I had been at home today

Being so young and foolish, poor boy, let a rambler lead me astray

My mother she's a tailor

She sewed those new blue jeans

My sweetheart he's a gambler

Oh Lord, down in New Orleans

Well the only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and a trunk

And the only time he's satisfied

Is when he's on a run

Fills his glasses to the brim and passes them around

The only pleasure he gets out of life is rambling from town to town.

The Rathlin Bog

Ro, ro the Rathlin bog

The bog down in the valley O

Ro, ro the Rathlin bog

A bog down in the valley O

And on that bog there was a tree

A rare tree, a Rathlin tree

The tree in the bog and the bog down in the valley O

The Was An Old Lady

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.

I don't know why she swallowed a fly.

I guess she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a spider

That wiggled and jiggled and tickled insider her.

She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.

I don't know why she swallowed a fly.

I guess she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a bird.

How absurd! To swallow a bird!

She swallowed the bird to catch the spider

That wiggled and jiggled and tickled insider her.

She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.

I don't know why she swallowed a fly.

I guess she'll die.

[Continue verses.]

Cat . . . Imagine that! She swallowed a cat.

Dog . . . What a hog! She swallowed a dog.

Goat . . . She opened her throat and in walked a goat.

Cow . . . I don't know how she swallowed that cow.

There was an old lady, she swallowed a horse.

She DIED of course!

The Sounds Of Silence

Hello darkness my old friend,

I've come to talk to you again,

Because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping

And a vision that was planted in my brain still remains, within the sounds of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone,

'Neath the halo of a pale street lamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp, when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of neon light that split the night and touched the sounds of silence.

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more.

Page 17 of 20

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share and no one dare disturb the sound of silence.

`Fools' said I `You do not know,

Silence like a cancer grows.

Hear my words that I might teach you, take my arms that I might reach you,' but my words like silent rainbows fell and echoed in the wells of silence.

And the people bowed and prayed to the neon gods they'd made.

And the sign flashed out its warning in the words that it was forming.

And the sign said `The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls' and whispered in the sound of silence

Where The Streets Have No Name

I want to run

I want to hide

I want to tear down the walls

That hold me inside

I want to reach out

And touch the flame

Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face

I see the dust cloud disappear

Without a trace

I want to take shelter from the poison rain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We're still building

Then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you

It's all I can do

The city's aflood

And our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust

I'll show you a place

High on a desert plain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We're still building

Then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you

It's all I can do

Our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, and I see love

See our love turn to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, when I go there

I go there with you

It's all I can do

Wild Rover

I've been as wild rover for many the year

And I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer

And now I'm returning with gold in great store

And I never will play the wild rover no more

And It's no, nay, never

No, nay, never no more

Will I play the wild rover

No never no more

I went into an ale house I used to frequent

And I told the landlady my money was spent

I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay

Sure 'tis custom like yours I can get any day"

I took out from my pocket 10 sovereigns bright

And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight

She said "Sir, I have whiskey and wines of the best

And the words I have spoke they were only in jest"

I'll go home to my parents - confess what I've done

And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son

And than they'll caress me as oft times before

And I never will play the wild rover no more

With or Without You

See the stone set in your eyes

See the thorn twist in your side

I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate

On a bed of nails she makes me wait

And I wait without you

With or without you

With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore

You give it all but I want more

Page 18 of 20

And I'm waiting for you

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give

And you give

And you give yourself away

My hands are tied

My body bruised, she's got me with

Nothing to win and

Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give

And you give

And you give yourself away

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

With or without you

Wonderwall

Today is gonna be the day

That they're gonna throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realised what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word is on the street

That the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all before

But you never really had a doubt

I don't believe that anybody feels

The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I would

Like to say to you

But I don't know how

Because maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me?

And after all

You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?

But they'll never throw it back to you

By now you shoud've somehow

Realised what you're not to do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do

About you now

All the roads that lead you there are winding

All the lights that light the way are blinding

There are many things that I would like to say to you

But I don't know how

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one who saves me?

And after all

You're my wonderwall

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one who saves me?

And after all

You're my wonderwall

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

Worms

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

I'll go out and dig some worms;

Long thin skinny ones;

Big fat juicy ones,

See how they wriggle and squirm.

Bite their heads off,

Suck their juice out,

Throw their skins away,

Nobody knows how much I thrive

On worms three times a day.

Long thin skinny ones slip down easily,

Big fat juicy ones stick;

Hold your head back,

Squeeze their tail,

And their juice just goes drip, drip.

Yellow Submarine

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed to sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines

Page 19 of 20

So we sailed up to the sun

Till we found the sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

And our friends are all on board

Many more of them live next door

And the band begins to play

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

As we live a life of ease

Everyone of us has all we need

Sky of blue and sea of green

In our yellow submarine.

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,

Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

Yesterday

Yesterday

All my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as if they're here to stay

Oh I believe in yesterday

Suddenly,

I'm not half the man I used to be

There's a shadow hanging over me, oh yesterday came suddenly

Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say.

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday

Love was such an easy game to play

Now I lead a place to hide away

Oh I believe in yesterday

You're The One That I Want

That my faith is justified

Are you sure? Yes I'm sure deep down inside
