Let me sail, let me sail,  
let the Orinoco Flow,  
let me reach, let me beach  
on the shores of Tripoli.  
Let me sail, let me sail,  
let me crash upon your shore,  
let me reach, let me beach  
far beyond the Yellow Sea.

Let me get back to the ocean,  
Let me get back to the sea.  
Let me be stormy,  
Let me be calm,  
Let the tide in, and set me free.

First the tide rushes in  
Plants a kiss on the shore  
Then rolls out to sea  
And the sea is very still once more  
So I rush to your side  
Like the oncoming tide  
With one burning thought  
Will your arms open wide  
At last we’re face to face  
And as we kiss through an embrace

The tide is high but I’m holding on  
I’m gonna be your number one

The Show must go on!Yeah!  
Inside my heart is breaking,  
My make-up may be flaking,  
But my smile, still, stays on!

</div>

There’s a picture on the door, madman smiling from the floor  
It’s a good day for a drive if you think you will survive  
Just my way of saying hi 'cause I knew I wouldn’t write  
And the seat will fit one more, so there’s room enough for four

Your words they flatter me, you fill my head with tea  
Please let me take it one more mile  
The Galaxie will burn if I can’t make it turn  
I hope I’m making Judy smile

I hope I’m making Judy smile

Judy in Disguise, well that’s a-what you are  
A-lemonade pies, with a brand new car  
Cantaloupe eyes come to me tonight  
Your Judy in disguise, with glasses

Something inside  
Is telling me that I’ve got your secret  
Are you still listening?  
Fear is the lock  
And laughter the key to your heart  
And I love you

I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are  
You make it hard

Tonight we’re going har-har-ha-ha-ha-hard

Don’t let the sun go down on me  
Although i search myself, it’s always someone else i see  
I’d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free  
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can’t find  
Oh, the right romantic line  
But see me once and see the way feel  
Don’t discard me baby don’t  
Just because you think i mean you harm  
Just because you think i mean you harm, oh  
But these cuts i have, cuts i have  
They need love  
They need love, they need love to help them heal

Every time I tried to tell you  
The words just came out wrong  
So I have to say I love you  
In a song

And when I touch you i feel happy, inside  
It´s such a feeling  
That my love  
I can’t hide  
I can’t hide  
I can’t hide

Yeah you, got that something  
I think you´ll understand  
When I say that something  
I wanna hold your hand  
I wanna hold your hand  
I wanna hold your hand

Beans, beans, the musical fruit!  
The more you eat, the more you toot.  
The more you toot, the better you feel.  
Let’s have beans at every meal!

Well the telephone is ringing  
Is that my mother on the phone?  
Telephone is ringing  
Is that my mother on the phone?  
The telephone is screaming  
Won’t she leave me alone?  
The telephone is ringing  
Is that my mother on the phone?
