"Martha My Dear"
(originally by The Beatles)



Martha my dear
Though I spend my days in conversation
Please remember me, Martha my love
Don't forget me, Martha my dear.

Hold your head up you silly girl
Look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you.

Silly girl, take a good look around you
Take a good look you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be
For each other, silly girl.

Hold your hand out you silly girl
See what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you.

Silly girl.

Martha my dear
You have always been my inspiration
Please be good to me, Martha my love
Don't forget me, Martha my dear

"Me And The Boys"

"Me And The Boys"


Me and the boys wanna dance and score
There is a monkey suit across the door
You ain't coming in now with your crazy crowd
Oh no there ain't no jeans allowed

Yeh hey we're going on the town
Me and the boys are gonna wear you down
Yeh hey we're going on our way
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.

Down at the Raj and we can all perspire
The Vindaloo kid has got his jeans on fire
Curry and lager are the spice of life
Next day they're gonna give me strife

Yeh hey we're going on the town
Me and the boys are gonna wear you down
Yeh hey we're going on our way
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K. yeh

Me and the boys well we got no doubt
You're never too old to be a gadabout
Can't take em anywhere they cause a ruck
Oh no they never will grow up

Yeh hey we're going on the town
Me and the boys are gonna wear you down
Yeh hey we're going on our way
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.

There in your jeans you know have cost the earth
You ain't coming in its more than my jobs worth
Look at the kid now with his shirt tail out
Oh no you wanna hear them shout

Yeh hey we're going on the town
Me and the boys are gonna wear you down
Yeh hey we're going on our way
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.
Me and the boys and we we're doing O.K.

"Merry Xmas Everybody"

"Merry Xmas Everybody"


Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
It's the time that every Santa has a ball
Does he ride a red-nosed reindeer?
Does it ton-up on his sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?

[Chorus:]
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
Are you sure you've got the room to spare inside?
Does your granny always tell you
That the old songs are the best?
Then she's up and rock 'n' rolling with the rest

[Chorus:]
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

What will your daddy do
When he sees your momma kissing Santa Clause?
Aaah ah aaah aahh

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
Do you ride on down the hillside
In a buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head
Then you've been "Slade" (slayed)

[Chorus:]
So here it is. Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
Look to the future now
It's only just begun
So here it is, Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun
(It's Christmas!)
Look to the future now
It's only just begun

"Miles Out To Sea"

"Miles Out To Sea"


From the corner of my eye, I was looking out and why
To see all the things we did, to see hope in where we hid
From the outside looking in, was a stranger with a grin
Seeing bombhead on a rope, he was swinging high and low,
high and low
We were miles out to sea - did we float, you and me?
Maybe one day we'll go back for more
We were miles from the bay - did we float, I should say
Maybe next time we'll leave from the shore

From the corner of my eye, I was looking out and why
There were sounds you never heard and then dump was the new word
Look at last nite was that nite, a sharp lady got it right
We song songs from cabaret and we laughed the night away,
right away

We were miles out to sea - did we float, you and me?
Maybe one day we'll go back for more
We were miles from the bay - did we float, I should say
Maybe next time we'll leave from the shore

The mad monk was such a sight, red hair hanging in the light
And a temple to call home, is he living there alone?
From the outside looking in, was a stranger with a grin
He saw all the things we did, we saw hope in where we hid, yes we did

We were miles out to sea - did we float, you and me?
Maybe one day we'll go back for more
We were miles from the bay - did we float, I should say
Maybe next time we'll leave from the shore

Well my baby left me and never said a word
Was it something I done, something that she heard
You know she left me, My baby left me
You know she even left me, Never said a word
