"La La La Song"

"La La La Song"


There’s a song I know, this is how it goes
There is nothing in it complicated
Take the melody, simple as can be
There is nothing in it that can date it

There’s no language problem in it
Children everywhere can sing it, swing it
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la

There’s no language problem in it
Children everywhere can sing it, swing it

See, I’ve told you so
But now I must go
Leaving you with something to remember
Now be on your way
What else can I say?
There is really nothing to it
All you have to do is, do it
All you have to sing is la la la (la la la)
Sing la la la (la la la)
Sing la la, la la la la la

"Lamp Of Love"

"Lamp Of Love"


Shine on me your lamp of love
Shine on me don't look above
And make my darling see the light
Oh lamp of love bring a back my love tonight

Weave your spell of life and dreams
Bake my baby with your beams
Warm her coat out with your lies
Oh lamp of love bring a back my love tonight

Find oh find her with your glow
Please remind her I need her so

Magic lantern in the blue
Grab this wish I wish on you
Let me kiss there all the time
Oh lamp of love bring a back my love tonight

[Instrumental]

Find oh find her with your glow
Please remind her I need her so

Magic lantern in the blue
Grab this wish I wish on you
Let me kiss let me kiss there all the time
Oh lamp of love bring a back my love tonight
Oh lamp of love bring a back my love tonight, yeh yeh.

"Language Of Love"

"Language Of Love"


Excusez-moi, my pretty Mademoiselle,
You are a French girl it's easy to tell,
Me, I don't smoke not even a French cigarette,
But I love my pomme de terre,
And always croquette,
I am from Angleterre and you are from France,
And you will honour me by having a dance.

[Chorus:]
Straight away!
I'm getting ready for a new sensation,
Never kissed them in another nation,
Internationally I'm in clover,
I was a native on the boat ride over,
Straight away!
I'm getting ready for my new vocation,
I am the man who will unite the nations,
Ooh la la/how you say it/ca va-this is love,
La la la la la la la language of love.
La la la la la la la language of love.
La la la la la la la language of love.

We've been together now for more than a day,
And I am waiting to hear what you say,
Come on, come on, I think you're telling me lies,
You are Italian, I can tell by your eyes,
I love Chianti and I hope you'll agree,
That Zefferelli makes the movies for me

[Chorus]

I try my French, Latin, Spanish and Greek,
This is the language of love that I speak,
I never know if they're from Paris or Rome,
We stop the talking when I'm walking them home,
One little kiss and then heavens above,
This is the universal language of love.

Straight away!
Are you ready for a new sensation,
I'm gonna kiss a girl from every nation,
[Rest of chorus as before]

This is love-the language of love.

"Lazy River"

"Lazy River"


Up a lazy river
By the old mill run
Lazy river
In the noonday sun.

Linger awhile
In the shade of a tree
Throw away your troubles
Dream with me.

Up a lazy river
Where the robin's song
Wakes the mornin' we roll along
May be blue skies above
Everyone's in love
Up a lazy river
How happy we'll be
Up a lazy river with me.

Up a lazy river
By the old mill run
That lazy, lazy river
In the noonday sun.

You can linger for awhile
In the shade of a tree
Throw away your troubles, baby
Dream a dream of me.

Up a lazy river
Where the robin's song
Wakes a bright new mornin'
Where we can roll along.

There may be blue skies up above
But, as long as we're in love
Yeah ... we'll be up a lazy river
How happy we could be
Up a lazy river with me.

From the halfway mark!

Yeah ... up a lazy river
Where that robin's song
Awakes a bright new mornin'
We can roll along.

A-a-a ... there are blue skies up above
And as long as we're in love
We'll be up a lazy river
Up a crazy, lazy river.

Up a lazy river ...
I ain't goin' your way ...
Get outta my way ...
Up a lazy river with me.

"Lean On You"

"Lean On You"


The firt step to heaven
I will take in my life
I am not afraid when
I can hold you tight
If there must be an answer
Then there must be a prayer
And you must be the angel
When you're standing there
So I lean on you, I lean on you

My life is such a statement
Of my hopes and despairs
But nothing really matters
Just as long as you're there
You love me such honesty,
You love with no gain
You speak to me so tender
And you never explain
So I lean on you, I lean on you

My baby she cares
It's so easy to do
My baby she tells me what to do
She always tells me the truth
My baby she cares
It's so easy to do
My baby knows what I'm gonna do
That's why I lean on you

I dream of an island,
Of a fantasy place
Where I can go to sometimes
And nobody can trace
Well such is the nature,
The nature of love
That when we dream it
Sometimes means that we need love
So I lean on you, I lean on you

My baby she cares
It's so easy to do
My baby she tells me what to do
She always tells me the truth
My baby she cares
It's so easy to do
My baby knows what I'm gonna do
That's why I lean on you

So I lean on you, I lean on you
I lean on you, so I lean on you

"Learning How To Rock 'n' Roll"

"Learning How To Rock 'n' Roll"


Billy on his way to school
Didn't care too much about the teachers and rules
But he had a plan he said he'd try it one day
One he knew would leave them all with nothing to say
He had a friend who said he'd teach him how to rock and roll
After school when he was feelin' good
He'd go home and do the things that he understood
He would rock in the kitchen and roll in the hall
And billy's mother said you got no sense at all
But we know too well that he was
Learning how to rock and roll

'cos he would rock in the kitchen roll in the hall
Stand on the tv and climb up the wall
Jive on the ceiling lay on the floor
Crawl through the bathroom and cry out for more
And that's the only way to do it
When you're learning how to rock and roll
Teach me to rock...

Willy turns to the mirror and gives his hair a flip
He would mime to elvis and curl his lip
Ha ha in the kitchen
Ha ha in the hall
Willy's mother said you got no sense at all
But we know too well that he was

Learning how to rock and roll
'cos he would rock in the kitchen roll in the hall
Stand on the tv and climb up the wall
Jive on the ceiling lay on the floor
Crawl through the bathroom and cry out for more
And that's the only way to do it
When you're learning how to rock and roll
Teach me to rock...

He learnt to rock and roll
And sing the blues
He learnt to head shake
While singing blue suede shoes
He learnt a hand clap
Off the beat
And at the gig he had them out of their seats
It's the only way to do it so long live rock and roll

'cos he would rock in the kitchen roll in the hall
Stand on the tv and climb up the wall
Jive on the ceiling lay on the floor
Crawl through the bathroom and cry out for more
And that's the only way to do it
When you're learning how to rock and roll
Teach me to rock...

"Left Out Again"

"Left Out Again"


I’m left out again, oh feeling so blue
Wondering what it was, I dear to you
Umm-umm, Left out again and yet it seem
That you are always with me to hold my dream

I-I know little girl, oh I was such a fool
But now I’m lonely, oh so lonely
Can you take pity on me
Left out again, wishing you knew
And if it, if it means anything
I really love you

More I know, I was a fool, little girl how I agree
But now I’m so lonely, oh so lonely
Can you take pity on me
‘Cause I’m left out again, wishing you knew
And if it means anything
I really love you

Oh, how I love you, left out again, wishing you knew
Left out again, wishing you knew

"Lessons In Love"

"Lessons In Love"


First you cuddle up beside me nice and near
Then you whisper all the things I long to hear
That's the first lessson in love
Mmmm...Give me your heart

Then you put your two sweet lips on mine like this
And you'll learn the magic of a tender kiss
That's the next lesson in love
Mmmm...lesson in love

It's so easy when you know how
O my darling let me show you now

Last you whisper I love you so sweetly
Then I'll know you've learned it all completely
That's the last lesson in love
Mmmm...baby love me true

"Let Me Be The One"


Tonight (Tonight)
Tonight (Tonight)
Tonight (Tonight)
Tonight

Let me be the one who's loving you tonight
Let me be the one who really holds you tight
I'll even bring along a magic moon
Just to make you feel alright
So let me be the one who's loving you tonight

Let me be the one who takes you by the hand
(Let me be the one)
Let me be the one who always understands

Everybody knows we've been good friends
But I think the time is right
So let me be the one who's loving you tonight

You and I could have an affair

Make sweet music, go anywhere
Building highways taking us there
As long as I know you really care
Won't you show me you care?

Oh... come on

"Let Us Take You For A Ride"

"Let Us Take You For A Ride"


[Cliff:]
The bush upon the rotor pump
Is pushed into the floater sump
It's wearing out the grunion teeth
By bearing on the cog beneath
Which means in terms of tension swings
The seams of your suspension springs
In cyclic thirds are set apart
In very simple words, dear ladies
Your car won't start

[All singing:]
So we're making this offer
Ride with us, come ride with us
Through the countryside with us
For our bus has every comfort inside
We are pleading
Please let us take you for a ride

[Short music break]

[Cliff:]
To try to wrench the gyro sphere
Without a bench would take all year
Don't risk it like this on the road
The brisket feed light might explode

[Someone else:]
The ball valve's past the hydrotrend
There's something nasty round the bend
The loofah [?] tank is running slow (low?)

[All:]
To put it very frankly
Ladies, your car won't go
So ride with us
Come ride with us
Better be allied with us
Here's an offer
That is quite bona fide
We are pleading
Please let us take you for a ride

[Very long music break]

[Cliff very fast:]
You know I wouldn't be surprised
That gasket hood looks pulverised
The shock recoil is now reversed
[?]
Compression (seep?) will soon distend
The leak that leaks in your big end
The lousy coke has got a hitch
Around the choke adjustment switch
Your piston spark (spout?) is dynamite
(in?/and?) cutting off the parking light
And, from its shake, your outside brake
Is needing a new drum!

[All (slower):]
In fact make no mistake
You've really had it chum

[Cliff (with others singing different words at the same time):]
So ride with us
Come ride with us

Past the forest
And the riverside
Take a tour with us
That's really nation-wide
For as guys we're really qualified
There's no need to look terrified
For when you have tried
You will say - wide-eyed!
We are just what the doctor specified
We are pleading, please let us take you for a...
...ride with us, ride with us

[Short music break]

Please let us take you for a ride
