"Silent Homecoming"

"Silent Homecoming"



Patiently she stares down the runway,
Today's the day that he is coming home.
Seems like he's been gone a life time
And a life time is a long time to be gone.
But there are songs that need singing,
And there are things that must be done.
There are thoughts that still need thinking,
And there are wars that must be won.

He was just a boy when they sent for him
And overnight turned him into a man.
Proudly he had served his country
In a war he didn't seem to understand.
The flag still waves, his war is over,
He'll never have to kill again.
And as she waits, she thinks it over,
Is winning worth the prize we pay to win?

Her thoughts keep wandering to his childhood,
When all his hand grenades were merely toys.
And "war" was just a game that he was playing
With plastic guns like other little boys.
And ev'ry day when play was over,
He'd put his little toys away.
And she'd be standing, waiting for him,
The way she's waiting here today.

As the plane stops she starts thinking,
Will he still look the way he did before?
Or will his eyes reflect the pain of killing,
Like most young men when they come home from war?
These last few minutes seem like hours,
She tries her best not to cry.
But there's that hearse filled up with flowers,
Did he really have to die?
No, no, no, no,
No, no, no, no, no,
No, no, no,
No, no,
No, no,
No, no, no,
No,
No, no, no,
No,
No, no, no, no, no.

"Simple Love Song"

"Simple Love Song"



Oh my, i'm riding so high,
I keep telling myself that you love me.
Oh my, i'm up in the sky,
But i still see you so far above me.

Cheap thrills, well, i've had my fill,
They just empty your heart and your pocket.
Oo-wee, well, it's good to be
Riding your love like a rocket.

Well, i hope you understand,
But now i'm just a one woman man.
Before the sun goes down,
Ooh, i wanna see you,
Ooh, i wanna see you again.

Right now, i still wonder how,
I keep asking myself am i dreaming?
We two, it's just me and you,
You have given this song a new meaning.

Well, i hope you understand,
But now i'm just a one woman man.
Before the sun goes down,
Ooh, i wanna see you,
Ooh, i wanna see you again.

Right now!

(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, it's a simple love song)
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, it's a simple love song)

(mm-mm-mm, simple love song)
(mm-mm-mm, simple love song)

We two, it's just me and you,
Keep on wearing my love like a locket.
Sweet thing, well, i buy a new ring,
If that's what it takes, then you got it.

(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, it's a simple love song)
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, it's a simple love song)
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, it's a simple love song)
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo)
It's a simple love song,
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo)
It's a simple love song,
(doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo)

"Sneaking Sally Through The Alley"

"Sneaking Sally Through The Alley"



-"Ev'rybody dance!"

(sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)
(sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)

Sneaking sally through the alley,
Tryin' to keep her from sight.
Sneaking sally through the alley,
My baby caught me last night.

I said, "i can't find nothing wrong with being friends,
'Cause sometimes she lets me use her car."
She said, "if you can't find nothing wrong in your mind,
I know you've gone too far.

Sneaking sally through the alley,
Tryin' to get away clean. (tryin' to get away)
Sneaking sally through the alley,
My baby saw the whole scene.

So i began to try and explain,
But it just wasn't, wasn't much of a thought.
Now i should find me somebody new, (somebody new)
'Cause this man has been caught.

She caught me sneaking with sally through the alley,
Tryin' to get away clean.
Sneaking with sally through the alley,
I know you know what i mean. (what i mean, what i mean)

(tryin' to get away)
(tryin' to get away)
(tryin' to get away)

(sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)
(sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)

I talk double talk,
Anything's trouble talk.
Catching myself in lies.
Mama, just look at me,
Thinking about killing me,
I saw it in her eyes.

(oh, oh, oh)

She caught me sneaking with sally through the alley,
Tryin' to keep her from sight.
I was sneaking with sally through that alley,
My baby caught me last night.

Well, i was sneaking sally through that alley,
Tryin' to get away clean.
You know, sneaking with sally without knowing,
My baby saw the whole scene.

(oh, oh, oh)

And you know what happened, man?
She got right up to me one more time,
She said,
"what are you doing in the alley with that sally?"
I said,
"you'll just wait till tomorrow and we'll talk!"

"Snookeroo"

"Snookeroo"



One, two, three, four!

I was born in the north of england,
I was raised in a working town.
I broke all the rules when i went to school,
But the teacher's couldn't pin me down.

I tried to make my parents proud
By adapting the social powers.
Oh, pigs will fly and the earth will fry,
When they get me doing honest hours.

Snookeroo, snookeroo, daddy's going on the booze.
Mother used to cut my hair and sister used to make the news.
Well, it was two rooms up and two rooms down,
We were sentenced by the wrecking crane.
Oh, i was born on the eve of halloween
And snookeroo, snookeroo, snookeroo's my name.

I need someone to cook for me
And turn me lose at night.
I could spend my life with a factory girl,
'Cause a factory girl's my type.

I hear them gossip on the street,
Most of what they say is true.
Oh, don't you know that i hear them say,
"there goes that lazy, no good snookeroo."

Snookeroo, snookeroo, daddy's going on the booze.
Mother used to cut my hair and sister used to make the news.
Well, it was two rooms up (two rooms up)
And two rooms down, (two rooms down)
We were sentenced by the wrecking crane.
Oh, i was born on the eve of halloween
And snookeroo, snookeroo, (snookeroo)
Snookeroo's my name.

(oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo)

Snookeroo, snookeroo, daddy's going on the booze.
Mother used to cut my hair and sister used to make the news.
Well, it was two rooms up (two rooms up)
And two rooms down, (two rooms down)
We were sentenced by the wrecking crane.
Well, i was born on the eve of halloween
And snookeroo, snookeroo,
Snookeroo, snookeroo,
Snookeroo, snookeroo,
Snookeroo's my name, yeh.

"Some People"

"Some People"



When it starts to go wrong
And I feel like it can't go back
It's just a bump in the road
It's just a penny that's on the track

Some people can't move on
And some can't let it go
But I can...and you can
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

Sometimes it seems
Like we'll never be whole again
Like an oak in the wind
We bend a little bit now and then

Some people won't reach out
Some people won't reach in
But I will...and you will
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

Hold on tight
Try with all your might
It might get a little rough sometimes
Like a ship on a stormy night

But it's all gonna be all right
At the end of the day
Love is the only word

And there's nothing to say
It's the best one we've ever heard
Some people don't forget
The troubles that come their way

But I do... and you do
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

I do... and you do
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

"Star Dust"

"Star Dust"



Sometimes i wonder why i spend the lonely nights
Dreaming of a song,
The melody haunts my reverie
And i am once again with you,
When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration.

But that was long ago,
Now my consolation
Is in the star dust of a song.

Beside a garden wall where stars are bright,
You are in my arms.
The nightingale tells his fairytale
Of paradise where roses grew.
Though i dream in vain,
In my heart it will remain,
My star dust melody,
The memory of loves refrain.

Aaahhh, hit me!

The nightingale tells his fairytale
Of paradise where roses grew.
Though i dream in vain,
In my heart it will remain,
My star dust melody,
The memory of loves refrain.
