You're not Ms. Rheingold or Ms. Clairol. Or an ad for "Learn To Draw". And you don't have the prettiest pair of legs I ever saw. But cellophane don't move me and can't turn my life around.
I see your face everywhere I go. I feel you behind me. I turn but you're not there. I call your name. And people stop and stare. It's been some time since we last met.
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child. Sometimes I feel like a motherless child. Sometimes I feel like a motherless child. . A long way from home. A long way from home.
Am I awake or trapped inside. Somebody else's dream?. Oh maxine. Is this all real or dope induced. Are things as they all seem?. Oh maxine. . I've never been in love before.
I'm goin' home on the morning train. I'm goin' home on the morning train. I'm goin' home on the morning train. If you don't see me you can hear me singing.
I seem to pack my mind. With useless information. Until it drags me down. You seem to fill the time. With uselesss occupations. Until it drags you down.
Early one mornin', one mornin' in spring. To hear the birds whistle, the nightingales sing. I met a fair maiden who sweetly did sing. 'I'm going to be married next Monday morning'.
La la la....... Dans mes rves j'entends une voix. Qui me dit "ne pleure pas",. Quel dommage mes yeux sont des source claires.. Dans mes rves j'entends une voix.
Moments of the soft persuasion. Chiming bells, the first occasion. Tell the rest a smile awaken. Till the last reminder shaken. From whatever rude and sorrow.
Hush little baby, don't say a word. Pappa's gonna buy you a mockingbird. If that mockingbird don't sing. Pappa's gonna buy you a diamond ring. . If that diamond ring turns brass.
Michael row the boat ashore, Hallelujah. Michael row the boat ashore, Hallelujah. . Sister help to trim the sails, Hallelujah. Sister help to trim the sails, Hallelujah.
There is a man come into Egypt, and Moses is his name. When he saw the grief upon us in his heart there burned a flame. In his heart there burned a flame, oh Lord, in his heart there burned a flame.
In Make-Believe Town. In Make-Believe Town. In Make-Believe Town. Oh, yes. . In Make-Believe Town. Oh, Make-Believe Town. Oh, Make-Believe Town. Is a mess.
Stupid things keep on happening. Every single day. When I fall in love. It slips away. Finding out was so hard to take. There's no reason why. When I phoned you up.
The 80's brought a wave of greed, you all bought flats you didn't need.. You really thought you'd got it made, you fell into trap they laid.. . Mr Mortgage, now you're poor, bailiffs knocking at your door..
You know those kids they get at school, they've got a motorbike they think they're cool.. They've got a moped for their sixteenth birthday, now you can hear them coming from half a mile away..
I creep down alleys and peep thru blinds, I strangle and kill any children I find.. I like meeting people when they're dead, I take some of them back to bed..
I'm a little stronger now. Before I saw you go. It feels a little longer now. Since I said I won't know. . That my sure ticket knows the way to go. Here am I sayin' it so.
My dying flowers. My decaying rose. My fading garden of love. My destroyed world of beauty.. Everything is dark and full of filth now. {oooooh..}. All that's that's left is a dry desolate land of tears.
Written by peter green.. . Momma don'tcha cry now. Momma don'tcha cry now. Just say your goodbyes now. But momma don'tcha cry. I've been a foolish boy.
