Well I worked for a week and I got no pay.. (things getting better.). Well my baby's coming back home to stay. (things getting better.). Well she's coming back home, but I haven't got a dime.
(Sung by Working Class Man, Middle Class Man and Upper Class Man). . I'm just a simple working man. Gettin' by the best I can. In this crazy mixed-up muddled-up world that I live in..
Truly, oh truly. There is nothing in this life without your love. . This is a story of my true love. There is no life without love. . Truly, oh truly.
You worry 'bout the sun. What's the use of worrying 'bout the big ol' sun. You worry 'bout the rain. The rain keeps falling just the same. You worry when the one you need has found somebody new.
There is a war going on,. A spiritual change,. There is a world going wrong,. Don't ya wanna run away and hide,. And it seems so hard.. . We're on a psychic battlefield,.
I know a place not far from here. It's not far away, love, but if you come. I know a place where we'll be alone. And we'll talk of life, the way love used to be.
We are the Village Green Preservation Society. God save Donald Duck, vaudeville and variety. We are the Desperate Dan Appreciation Society. God save strawberry jam and all the different varieties.
The local factory's been pulled down. By an overseas corporation. Now all of my brothers are looking around. For alternative occupation. . I was sitting by the telly with my brother, Kenny.
Sitting alone on my hotel. Looking in the mirror wondering, "well,. After all this time you never thought you'd still be out on the road?". Like a gypsy I was born to roam.
As I walked into the charity store. I saw a second-hand shirt hangin' up by the door. The collar was frayed, there was a stain on the cuff. Caused by ketchup or blood or some such stuff.
The poseur's in town. The poseur's around. . Hey, it don't bother me,. But there's a guy eyein' you. He's watched you all night and he's looked you all over.
Robert owes half to Grenville. Who in turn gave half to Larry, who. Adored my instrumentals. And so he gave half to a foreign publisher. He took half the money.
Haven't we come a long way. From newly-weds in our bed-sitter flat?. We skimped and scraped every penny. For a down payment on our semi-detached.. New towns for all the young hopefuls,.
As I walked to the last assembly,. There were tears in the back of my eyes,. And I saw all my friends all around me,. They were there to wish me goodbye..
Isn't it strange meeting you here. Two old friends. Just sitting down quietly drinking a beer. But knowing your past the way that I do. After all this time I'm surprised.
Boys like you were born to waste,. You never listen to a word I say. And if you think you're here to mess around,. You're making a big mistake,. 'Cos you're gonna find out the hard way,.
Hush, little mammy, don't you cry. I've got to see what it's like on the world outside. Got to get out of this life somehow. Got to be free, got to be free now.
Boys like you were born to waste,. You never listen to a word I say. And if you think you're here to mess around,. You're making a big mistake,. 'Cos you're gonna find out the hard way,.
Tell me now so I'll know,. There are so many things that I could do.. If you tell me now that I'd know what to do,. Tell me now so I'll know.. . Tell me now so I'll know,.
Chorus: telepathy. For you and me,. We can be. A unity.. . It threads right through the airways,. On a long magnetic tube,. Then joins into your brainwaves,.
