Lucy is a girl
Such a very pretty girl
Lonely child born to the world tonight
I’m taking my stand
How long does she take?
Give her heart her heart will break
Puts the lonely boy on the make tonight
I’m taking my stand and holding her hand
I’m singing Lucy
Come home
You’ll see
You’re not alone
Yet another year
Counts her sorrow tear by tear
Tomorrow she’ll be far from here oh nice
Round and Round she goes
Where she’ll stop she’ll never know
Hate to say I told her so
I’m taking my stand
And holding her hand
I’m singing Lucy
Come home
You’ll see
You’re not alone
If ever there was a simple because
For you leaving me I’m talking
To be under Lucy’s sky I might as well try
I’m losing my mind I’m losing mine…

Alright

It’s funny I should see you here
It’s so funny I should see your face at all
But baby you told me two years ago
That the morning comes and I could see you cryin’
But lately you’ve been in my dreams
The little clown inside of me says
Hurry boy get off that trampoline
Give this boy his fantasy
Let the one who loves you take you home
But baby I’ve no cause to laugh at you
But baby as you are and as you are to roam
I hope you’re lying all alone
Put my ring beside the phone
Cause once I thought you looked like Britney Spears
But it’s alright alright alright!
It’s the middle of the night it’s time for liking times

The Reprise
04:35
|

You say I’m going nowhere
I think you’re right
You’re saying I don’t care
I think you’re right
And if you want the truth
I think it right to say
I’m done with you
I think I’m right
Because the morning sun is shining and I’m ready to go
And there’s this tenderness and feeling that I’ve come to know
To the woman of the month
The lover for the week
And it’s turning out to be a long day
And I know you’re gonna hate me anyway
They say you’re ugly as sin
I think they’re right
It’s that double chin
I think they’re right
It’s just a couple of beers
And you looked alright
And I regret to say
It felt alright
To put this feeling in your heart that couldn’t make you go away
No it’s with tenderness and feeling that I’ve got to say
To the woman of the month
The lover for the week
And it’s turning out to be a long day
And I know you’re gonna hate me anyway
But damn it I played the game too long to have you hanging by my side
It’s just I knew you’d get depressed and shit so I had to say Hello, Goodbye
To the woman of the month, I wish it were a week
But it’s turning out to be a great day,
Cause I never ever loved you anyway
Saturday Morning three below
Listen to the Rock & Roll
My engine is freezing and my heart is in a whirl
I’m alone and I’m flying
Cause it’s my life
Yes it’s my life
Standing on the back road of a lonely street
Bring loneliness and self to meet
My friends they are vultures as they circle round
Just waiting for me to fall
But it’s my life
Yes it’s my life
Say you’re going my way now get off the track
You’ll have yourself a heart attack
You say you need me by your side I knew you would
Cause you need it!
But it’s my life
Yes it’s my life
Take me home…

Have a Great Day
03:14
|

They fill you up
If you fill them in
And stare you down
Cause they’ve got to win
If you’ve got time
I’ve loads of time
Come on inside
This hell called life
Like the roadside politician with the reason to petition the way he wins
And he’s waving at the passerby and as I happen by yes he smiles I grin
The handmade string
Your fingers play
Just wind me up
I’ll play play play
Your silly games
For Heaven’s sake
Don’t wind too far
I’m going to break
Like the roadside politician with the reason to petition the way he wins
And he’s waving at the passerby and as I happen by yes he smiles I grin
And although I’ve heard it all before lately I’ve been wanting more
Hey! It’s a great way
Such a nice way
Have a Great Day on me
This is me
This is so typically me
On & On, Nothing’s Changed
Oh but lately it’s not the same
Smells Like Rain, Lucy’s tame
And I know this oh will some day
It’ll run full circle nicely
Like the roadside politician with the reason to petition the way he wins
And he’s waving at the passerby and as I happen by yes he smiles I grin
And although I’ve heard it all before lately I’ve been wanting more
Hey! It’s a great way
Such a nice way
Have a Great Day on me

The Note
04:02
|
|||
One day after all the shops are closed
I’ll stand in the middle of the street cause
No one seems to notice when I’m crying out
Came home to the empty house I left
Why then, did I feel so out of place?
And I can’t remember what I came back for
Was it you? You do, you do, you know me…
Well enough to leave me
And I knew you knew it was going to hurt me
So you left me the note
And I read me the note
And more simple than that you leave
Came back to your door it wasn’t easy
Stood there waiting for the words to come cause
I knew
That some day after all the shops are closed
I’ll stand in the middle of the street cause
I don’t seem to notice when you’re crying out
Was it you? You do, you do, you know me…
Well enough to leave me
And I knew you knew it was going to hurt me
So you left me the note
And I read me the note
And more simple than that you leave

Dreams
03:05
|

See me
High above the ground in your arms baby
Looking out into the end of time
Edge of the whole world and it is mine
I’m not the man I used to be
But if you look that close to me
I haven’t changed at all you’ll see it’s me
Oh Dreams!
Lately
I’ve been toying with the thought I might just maybe
End it all right here inside my room
But the radio keeps playing in a loop
Saying damn it boy you’ll understand
We’re following the piper’s hand
And all of this is caused by you
Oh dreams top of the world
Watching the wheels and I’m in your arms baby
Give it a spin, see if you win
Be glad if you don’t there’s many that won’t
You’re guaranteed nothing
Into the world, out of this world
A wonderful word it is when you’re giving it nothing
Into the sun is where I will run when all of it’s done
run
A fancy word to give it when you’re done
Now tell me boy does that seem fair
To give it in like breathing air
But nothing keeps you down until you dream
Oh Dreams!
See me
High above the ground in your arms baby
Looking out into the end of time
Edge of the whole world and it is mine
I’m not the man I used to be
But if you look that close to me
I haven’t changed at all you’ll see it’s me

Spinning Me Around
02:55
|
|||
So you’re taking me uptown
And you’re making my heart sound
I must admit you’re quite lovely
I hope it’s me that you’re heart sees
And it’s okay if you haven’t a clue
That I’m so scared I’m falling in love with you
Cause you’re spinning me around
You’re spinning me around
So you’re taking me upstairs
To your bedroom it’s upstairs
While the parent’s are downstairs
Show me your world yes we won’t care
So you’re taking me downtown
That’s where we go when we’re downtown
We mustn’t do what we ought to
Until it ends I will love you
And it’s okay if you haven’t a clue
That I’m so scared I’m falling in love with you
Cause you’re spinning me around
You’re spinning me around
And I don’t care if you’re taking me back
I’m quite sure that there is nothing you lack
Cause you’re spinning me around
You’re spinning me around

Baby Blue

Someone’s ringing a bell for you it’s true don’t let it get away
There are angels who cry for you Baby Blue let ‘em
Since you are content with your ways
I know it sounds hard but they’re speaking the truth
You rushed to grow up turn around there’s your youth
Get lost in a day and it all will come back to you Baby Blue
I believe in you too Baby Blue how you’ll make them, you’ll make ‘em see
Who you’d be giving in to Baby Blue it just haunts me
Still you’ve got it all in your mind
That no one will hear so you struck up the band
You gave it all away with your sock monkey you ran
Now maybe some day oh it all will come back to you
Yes it all will come back to you
And it all will come back to you
Baby Blue

Drop D Melancholy

There’s a time
A first time for everyone and everything
I’ve had lines in the plays that showed the best of me
The worst of me
But I wanna know
How to roll
You gotta roll
Roll with the punches
Cause I’ve got a hunch says
It’s gonna end soon
People stand fixed on a shadow they hide behind windows
You and I are the pride and the painter
The joy of the maker
But I wanna know
Why we’re crying so
We’re on the road
Road where the dead-end
Meets with the dead end
And it’s breaking my heart
I will run to you
On my own if I have to…
