Bows & Bangles

Born and raised in wilderness
Of suburban shops and schools
How she tried and tried to be satisfied
With a job on the typing pool
She hated the smell of carbon paper
The office so smoky and dry
How she longed for the day she would make her get away
And say her last goodbye
Bows and bangles on her fingers
And silver bells on her toes
That lady has music where she wonders
That lady has music where she goes
Married a guy with prospects
And so became his wife
And that my friend is the end of the story
cos that was the rest of his life
She could have been a movie star
She could have made the scene
Right or wrong she still hangs on
Each night to her favourite dream

How Do You Feel

So many people got so many lines
They've all been tried and it's true
They've all got so many reasons for changin' your mind
And there ain't none of 'em knew
But there's just so little distance between me and you
I think we're two of a kind
We won't do nothin' you don't wanna do
And i won't tell you no lies
Chorus:
So tell me, how do you feel about foolin' around
Down from your head to your toes
Ain't nothin' realer than right here and now
If that's as far as it goes
And it goes-and it goes-and it goes
Hey, you'll never miss nothin' you've never known
You'll never know 'til you try
Hey, we can take it or leave it alone
But we got so little time
Chorus:
So tell me, how do you feel about foolin' around

Hey You

Im stood out with my brother
On a tree lined avenue
I see the sweetest little creature
Coming into my view
And I say to myself, I say man Im gonna get me some
Of that bright little angel
That shines like the morning sun
Well my brother steps in, faster that light
And he sweet talks this angel, clean out of sight
I say hey you, you with that look in your eye
Hey you, you with that look in your eye
Well she moves like a river
From her head down to her toes
Its less a way of walking
More a total flow
And I say to myself, I wonder
I wonder if she knows
What shes doing to me and my brother
From our heads down to our toes
Well hes up there on the corner now

Should I Laugh Or Cry

(benny andersson / bjorn ulvaeus)
He stands towering over me beside my bed
Losing his head
Tells me I must take him seriously
Droning on the usual way
Hes such a clever guy
Then I wonder should I laugh or cry
Hes dressed in the striped pajamas that I bought
Trousers too short
Gives me all his small philosophy
Carries on the way he does
And me I get so tired
And I wonder should I laugh or cry
High and mighty his banner flies
A fools pride in his eyes
Standing there on his toes to grow in size
All I see is a big balloon
Halfway up to the moon
Hes wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
Of an eternal lie

The Only Daddy Thatll

Everybody knows you been steppin on my toes
And Im gettin pretty tired of it
Keep steppin outta line and messin with my mind
If you had any sense, youd quit
But ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then youll find
You got the only daddy thatll walk the line
I keep workin everyday, all you wanna do is play
Im sick of stayin out all night
Youve been coming unglued from your funny little moods
So, honey-baby, that aint right
cause ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then youll find
You got the only daddy thatll walk the line
Everybody knows you been steppin on my toes
And still just puttin me on
When I start-a-walkin, dont I hear you start-a-squawkin
Beggin me to come back home

Jack, Youre Dead

When you got no more assurance
Than a great big hunk o lead
If you dont respond to romance
Jack, youre dead
When a chick is smilin at you
Even though theres nothin said
You stand there like a statue
Jack, youre dead
You been always kickin
But you stubbed your toes
When you ups and kicks the bucket
Just like ole man mose
When you get no kicks from lovin
And you blow your top instead
Its a fact that you aint livin
Jack, youre dead
When you just aint got nobody
Since you gone and lost your head
Rigor mortis has set in, daddy
Jack, youre dead

Cleveland

Went walking underneath the shadows
Where dark and sweet secrets lay
When night tonight falls gently down
Hearts helplessly fall to the ground
Underneath a velvet sky
Only words can lie

I wanna tell you everything
I wanna make your toes curl
You be my only boy
And I'll be your only girl
There's not much I can say
You're in Cleveland today
You're in Cleveland today

Stewardesses like Cosmo magazine
Vogue makes me nervous I feel so plain
I could the world fearlessly
If you would face it here with me
Just our four hands and four eyes

Lie In Our Graves

When I step into the light my arms open wide
When I step into the light my eyes searching wild
Would you not like to be
Sitting on top of the world with your legs hanging free
Would you not like to be ok, ok, ok
When were walking by the water
Splish splash me and you taking a bath
When were walking by the water
Come to my toes to my ankles to my head to my soul
Then Im blown away
When were walking by the water
Splish splash me and you taking a bath
When were walking by the water
Come to my toes to my ankles to my head to my soul
Then Im blown away
I cant believe that we would lie in graves
Wondering if we had spent our living days well
I cant believe that we would lie in graves
Wondering what we might of been
I cant believe that we would lie in graves

To You

Well if the same thing happened to you
Would you still put me through what you put me through?
If it happened to you. what if it happened to you?
What if it happened a man kept shaking you down
But you cant get a ride to his side of town?
If it happened to you. what if it happened to you?
What if happened to you? keep it out of my shoes.
And if youre stepping on toes, keep it outta my nose.
cos if the same thing happened to me
Well, it wont be as bad as it used to be.
If it happened toyou. what if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you?
What if it happened to you, too?
What if it happens to you?
What if it happens to you?
What if happens to you? keep it out of my shoes.
And if youre stepping on toes, keep it outta my nose.
cos if the same thing happened to me
Well, it wont be as bad as it used to be.
