"The Good Life"

"The Good Life"


Oh, the good life, full of fun
Seems to be the ideal
Yes, the good life let's you hide
All the sadness you feel

You won't really fall in love
For you can't take the chance
So be honest with yourself
Don't try to fake romance

It's the good life
To be free and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches
When you learn you must face them alone

Please remember, I still love you
And in case you don't know
Well, just wake up
Kiss the good life "hel-lo"

"The More I See You"

"The More I See You"


More than the greatest love
The world has known,
This is the love
That I give to you,
Alone.

More than the simple words
I try to say,
I only live to love you
More each day.

More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so.
My life will be in your keeping;
Waking, Sleeping,
Laughing, Weeping.

Longer than always
Is a long, long time.
But far beyond forever,
You'll be mine.
I know I never lived before,
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more.

More than the greatest love
The world has known,
This is the love
That I give to you,
Alone.

More than the simple words
I try to say,
I only live to love you
More each day.

More than you'll ever know
My arms got to hold you so.
My life will be in your keeping;
Waking, Sleeping,
Laughing, Weeping.

Longer than always
Is a long, long, long time.
But far beyond forever
You'll be mine.
I know I never lived before,
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more.

"The Proper Gander"

"The Proper Gander"


There was a white mouse consultation
Down at the county fair
All the church mice, field mice and not so nice mice
Everybody gathered there
You see the muckidy muck he was
Speakin', tellin' them where it was at
He said hear, hear there ain't nothin' to fear
Except a three eyed Siamese cat
And the crowd was stunned
See, no single mouse had ever seen one
He said don't be scared
We're prepared.

Then he held up a great big picture
So every mouse could see
What a three eyed Siamese cat looked like
The face of the enemy
And the crowd let out such a shudder
As they lined up file and rank
Starin' at a twenty foot picture frame
Surroundin' a twenty foot blank
Just empty space
But every single mouse
Swore he saw a face
He said don't be scared
We're prepared

Then the muckidy much started screamin'
Yellin' till his voice gave out
He said now that you've seen what the
Cat looks like
Gonna tell you what he's all about
He said he don't eat cheese on Friday
And he goes around lickin' his paws
He's awful mean and he loves to keep clean
And believes in changin' laws
And the crowd went wild
And every mouse began to fear for his child
Don't scared
We're prepared.

Now two times two is forty-five
The muckidy muck explained
And the flat side of the moon is green
And the farmer don't need no rain
And the night is light and might is right
And Supermouse is on our side
And the three eyed Siamese cat's a plague
From which nobody can hide
And the mice all cringed
The whiskers of that cat would soon be singed
Don't be scared
We're prepared.

Then the muckidy muck started singin'
Through his great paternal grin
And the church mice, field mice
All the patriotic mice
Everybody chimed right in
They sang this land is mice land
Mice country tis of thee
Well my father took it from the beaver rat
Nobody's gonna take it from me
And the mice all cheered
The sound that they were makin' sure was weird
Dont' be scared
We're prepared.

Then the muckidy muck said line up here
Everybody give a buck
To fight the three eyed Siamese cat takes money
And a little bit of luck
We've got a million of our best young mice
To go out and volunteer
To give up what they're livin' for
To make the cat disappear
Let's give 'em a hand
Yay
We don't want that cat invadin' our land
No way
We're not scared
We're prepared.

Then a mighty strange thing happened
Guess you could call it fate
You see, a gust of wind blew the picture frame down
And it landed on the muckidy muck's head
And the mice they all went crazy
For the first time they saw the lie
It was all a hoax on just simple folks
And the muckidy muck must die
And die he did
The members of his staff they just fled
They were scared
Hah
Just not prepared.

"There's A Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder"

"There's A Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder"


There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder
And a sky of blue above
How the sun shines bright
The world's all right
'cause I'm in love.

There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder
And it fits me like a glove
Let it blow, let it storm
I'll be warm
'cause I'm in love.

Hallelujah... how the folks will stare
When they see the solitaire
That my little sugar baby is gonna wear.

There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder
And a sky of blue above
And, I'm shoutin' so
The world will know
That I'm in love.

Hallelujah... how the folks are gonna stare
When they see that diamond solitaire
That my own true baby's gonna wear.

There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder
And a sky of blue above
And, I'm shoutin' so...
So the world will know...
I'm in love...
I'm in love...

There's a rainbow 'round my shoulder
And I'm in love.

"They All Laughed"

"They All Laughed"


They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound

They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly
They told Marconi wireless was a phony
It's the very same cry

They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But oh, you came through
Now they'll have to change their tune

They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how
But ho, ho, ho
Who's got the last laugh now?

They all laughed at Rockefeller Center
Now they're fighting to get in
They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin

They all laughed at Fulton and his steamboat
Hershey with his chocolate bar
Ford and his Lizzie kept the laughers busy
That's how folk are

They laughed at me wantin' you
Said it would be, "Hello, goodbye"
But oh, you came through
Now they're eating humble pie

Yeah, they all said we'd never get together
Baby, let's take a bow
For, ho, ho, ho
Who's got the last laugh?

Ha, ha, ha
Who belongs to that laugh?
He, he, he
Who's got the last laugh?
...

"Things"

"Things"


Every night
I sit here by my window (Window)
Staring at the lonely avenue (Avenue)
Watching lovers holding hands and laughing (Laughing)
And thinking bout the things we used to do

(Thinking of things)
Like a walk in the park (Things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Things
Like a sailboat ride (Yeah yeah)
What about the night we cried
Things like a lovers vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinking bout the things we used to do

Memories are all I have to cling to (Cling to)
And heartaches are the friends I'm talking to (Talking to)
When I'm not thinking of just how much I loved you
Well I'm thinking about the things we used to do

(Thinking of things)
Like a walk in the park (Things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Things)
Like a sailboat ride (Yeah yeah)
What about the night we cried
Things like a lovers vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinking bout the things we used to do

I still can hear the jukebox softly playing (Playing)
And the face I see each day belongs to you (Belong to you)
Though there's not a single sound
And there's nobody else around
Well it's just me thinking of the things we used to do

(Thinking of things)
Like a walk in the park (Things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Things)
Like a sailboat ride (Yeah yeah)
What about the night we cried
Things like a lovers vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinking bout the things we used to do

And the heartaches are the friends I'm talking to
You got me thinking bout the things we used to do

"This Nearly Was Mine"

"This Nearly Was Mine"


One dream in my heart, one love to be living for,
One love to be living for, this nearly was mine.
One girl for my dream, one partner in paradise,
This promise of paradise, this nearly was mine.
Close to my heart she came, only to fly away,
Only to fly as day flies from moonlight.
Now, now I'm alone, still dreaming of paradise,
Still saying that paradise once nearly was mine.

"Through A Long And Sleepless Night"

"Through A Long And Sleepless Night"


Through a long and sleepless night
I whisper your name
Through a long and sleepless night
Of who is to blame

Can't help but wonder
If you're lonely too
As I lie there and toss about
So at a loss about you

How I wish my heart would leave
My memories alone
Why must I re-dream, re-live
The joys we've known

I pray that someday
Our love will see the light
Till then in thick, dark silence
I beg my heart to replace

All through and, oh, so long
And sleepless night

"Two Of A Kind"
(with Johnny Mercer)

"Two Of A Kind"
(with Johnny Mercer)



Two of a kind
For your information
We're two of a kind

Two of a kind
It's my observation
We're two of a kind

Like peas in a pod
And birds of a feather
Alone or together you'll find
That we are two of a kind

What's so wrong thinkin' life is a song and reachin' for a star
And who's to say if we'll go the whole way - at least we got this far
Sharin' our lot, our vittles and viands, we're two of an ilk
Say, what if we've got rare Chateaubriands or crackers and milk

Makin' it plain
Explainin' it fully
We're simila-la-larly inclined
Because we're two of a kind

Two of a kind
When he's out of rhythm, I'm singin' off key
(I never heard ya do that, John)
Say, never you mind, cause I'm stickin' with 'im, to C above C
(He's-a for me)
Oh, need we explain
When he warbles sweetly, I'm flat and completely behind
Because we're two of a kind

I get kicks when I meet the cute chicks who hang around this lad
And especially when they whisper to me, "Hey, honey, who's your dad?"

Two of a sort
Like two pomegranates from off the same tree
I'm with ya sport, whatever you plan it's-a goes double with me
(It's-a goes double with you, huh?) (Yeah!)
Yeah, I got a terrible thought
Most frightfully upsetting
And yet we are getting resigned
To being two of a kind

We're two of a kind
We like workin' single
Or workin' in twos
Keep us in mind, give us a jingle, we've got taps on our shoes
(We'll dance!)
We're both of us like, the Tower of Pisa
I'm-a lean-a like he's-a inclined
Because we're two of a kind
Because we're
Two of a kind

"Until It's Time For You To Go"

"Until It's Time For You To Go"


You're not a dream
You're not an angel, you're a man
I'm not a queen
I'm a woman, take my hand

We'll make a space
In the lives that we'd planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Yes, we're different worlds apart
We're not the same
We laughed and played
At the start like in a game

You could've stayed
Outside my heart but in you came
And here you'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Don't ask why, don't ask how
Don't ask forever, love me now

This love of mine
Had no beginning, it has no end
I was an oak
Now I'm a willow, now I can bend

And though I'll never
In my life, see you again
Still I'll stay
Until it's time for you to go

Don't ask why, don't ask how
Don't ask forever, love me now

You're not a dream
You're not an angel, you're a man
I'm not a queen
I'm a woman, take my hand

We'll make a space
In the lives that we'd planned
And here we'll stay
Until it's time for you to go
