"Here's To... (The New Year)"

"Here's To... (The New Year)"


Hey lads and lasses come raise up your glasses
Make sure they're filled up to the hilt
Going on the brink again
Buy me a drink then I'll show you what's under my kilt
So here's to the New Year - Here's to yourself
Cheers to you far and near - Here's to your health

Hey lads and lasses come raise up your glasses
The parties been rockin' all day
Going on in midnight and all of us getting tight,
Big Ben is bangin' away

So here's to the New Year - Here's to yourself
Cheers to you far and near - Here's to your health

One more wee toddy and I'm anybody's
I hope she's the same over there
We're gonna let the New Year in
What a noise what a din, all put your hands in the air

So here's to the New Year - Here's to yourself
Cheers to you far and near - Here's to your health

So here's to the New Year - Here's to yourself
Cheers to you far and near - Here's to your health

"Hey Ho Wish You Well"

"Hey Ho Wish You Well"


Hey ho wish you well
Hey ho wish you well
Hey ho wish you well
Everybody wanna yell
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Here there everywhere
Any grumble going spare
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Over the moon
Mad dogs and Englishmen
Going out in the midday sun
Come on and join the fun
Do you know what I mean
Gypsies kiss in a caravan
Drinking the black and tan
Do you know what I mean
Hey ho wish you well
Everybody wanna yell
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Here there everywhere
Any grumble going spare
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Over the moon
Turn on your Dictaphone
Take your secretary home
Break down in a parking zone
Do you know what I mean
Riff raff I need a bath
Try and look good on a photograph
I'm on a crazy path
Do you know what I mean
Hey ho wish you well
Everybody wanna yell
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Here there everywhere
Any grumble going spare
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Over the moon
Mad dogs and Englishmen
Going out in the midday sun
Come on and join the fun
Do you know what I mean
Gypsies kiss in a caravan
Drinking the black and tan
Do you know what I mean
Hey ho wish you well
Everybody wanna yell
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Here there everywhere
Any grumble going spare
High fly touch the sky
Over the moon
Over the moon
Here there everywhere
Any grumble going spare
Iffy nice and high
Over the moon
Hey ho wish you well
Hey ho wish you well
Hey ho wish you well
Hey ho wish you well

"Hi Ho Silver Lining"

"Hi Ho Silver Lining"


You're everywhere and no-where baby,
That's where you're at,
Going down a bumpy hillside,
In your hippy hat.
Flying across the country,
And getting fat,
Saying everything is groovy,
When your tyres are flat,
And it's...

Hi-ho silver lining,
Anywhere you go now baby,
I see your sun is shining,
But I wont make a fuss,
Though its obvious.

Flies are in your pea soup baby
They're waving at me,
Anything you want is yours now,
Only nothings for free,
Lies are going to get you someday,
Just wait and see.
Open up your beach umbrella,
While you're watching tv,
And it's...

Hi-ho silver lining,
Anywhere you go now baby,
I see your sun is shining,
But I wont make a fuss,
Though its obvious.

Hi-ho silver lining,
Anywhere you go now baby,
I see your sun is shining,
But I wont make a fuss,
Though its obvious.

"High And Dry"

"High And Dry"


Over and over

You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
Have you lost your voice?
Are you spoilt for choice?

My reputation's strictly for the birds
Don't believe in everything you've heard
How I operate
You ain't got long to wait - we'll do it

[Chorus]
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
High and dry

You take me home and I promise I'll behave
Won't wake your ma, I'll be silent as the grave
You'll be the first to crack
Then you'll want me back - to do it

[Chorus Repeat]

You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
You want equality
You won't get none of that from me - we'll do it

[Chorus Repeat]

I leave 'em, I leave 'em - high and dry
I love 'em, I leave 'em - I love 'em, I leave 'em high
I love 'em, I leave 'em, I heave 'em - high and dry
I leave 'em high and dry
I gonna leave 'em high

"How Can It Be"

"How Can It Be"


How can a woman eat up a man? - How can it be? How can it be?
How can a lady cheat, well she can? - How can it be? How can it be?
Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be
How can a loser change to a winner? - How can it be? How can it be?
How can a daydream change to a has-been? -
How can it be? How can it be?

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be
Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be

How can a tear drop dry up into laughter? -
How can it be? How can it be?
How can a lover, a lover turn it on the other?-
How can it be? How can it be?
Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh
And we know the reason why, how it can be . . . . aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

"How Does It Feel?"

"How Does It Feel?"


How does it feel runnin' around round round
how does it feel watchin' from upside down
'cos many years from now there will be new sensations
and new temptations
How does it feel

How does it feel right at the start
and how does it feel when you are thrown apart
'cos many years from now there will be new elations
and new frustrations

How does it feel? Oh! Oh!
Do you know know know what it's like to be searchin' in your own time
all your attempting experimenting all on the climb
do you know know know what it's like to be searchin' and suddenly find
all your illusion, all your confusion all left behind

How does it feel turnin' away
and how does it feel facing another day
'cos many years from now there will be newer poisons
and new horizons

'cos many years from now there will be new tomorrows
and still some sorrows

"I Don' Mind"

"I Don' Mind"


I don't mind, if there's a change in me
I'm unkind, that's how I've got to be
am I being cruel, am I being cruel
I danced on your face
it seemed the best place
for acting the fool
I got time, to put my wrong things right
my life's mine, to do with what I like
am I being cruel, am I being cruel
I danced on your face etc.
[chorus]
I'm going up, down, all around
build me up and knock me down
to the ground, I don't mind, I don't mind
my star sign, was just no good for you
it might shine, but it can't pull me through
am I being cruel, am I being cruel
I danced on your face etc.
[chorus]
I danced on your face etc.
I don't mind
[repeat to fade]

"I Remember"

"I Remember"


Coming up fast on a different line I was early for once
Stop so I looked all around at the chance and I was early for once
Won't take long to get out of this place
Got to take a chance decide my own fate

It's clear now to see the only past left for me is what the future brings
I'm sadly alone and when I'm all on my own my baby gets to moan
She can't recess me for my name and address
I stumbled for thought at it's simple request

I remember it
I take a long deep look at the things that I took but it still isn't clear

[Break]

My kid said hello and I didn't reply you see my memory was gone
That the fire in the grass it just wiped out my past and my memories gone
Won't take long to get out of this place
Got to take a chance decide my own fate

I remember it
I take a long deep look at the things that I took but it still isn't clear
