They don’t know that I go running home when I fall down They don’t know who picks me up when no one is around I drop my sword and cry for just a while 'Cause deep inside this armour The warrior is a child Unafraid because his armour is the best But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest People say that I’m amazing Never face retreat But they don’t see the enemies That lay me at His feet ---

But without him, How would Hitler have condemned him at Labau? Without him Caesar would have stood alone, He’s the one who gives his body As a weapon of the war, And without him all this killing can’t go on. He’s the Universal Soldier and he really is to blame, His orders come from far away no more, They come from here and there and you and me, And brothers can’t you see, This is not the way we put an end to war. ---

It’s always the old to lead us to the war It’s always the young to fall Now look at all we’ve won with the saber and the gun Tell me is it worth it all For I stole California from the Mexican land Fought in the bloody Civil War Yes I even killed my brothers And so many others But I ain’t marchin’ anymore For I marched to the battles of the German trench In a war that was bound to end all wars Oh I must have killed a million men And now they want me back again But I ain’t marchin’ anymore ---

There’s a halo round the moon tonight A swooning wave of endless light Saying, “Sail beyond my cratered face Into the depths of space” Ascending now, I climb the stair Jacob’s Ladder to the watcher’s lair It was Gabriel that met me there My guide outside the air The halo of the moon Ring around that burning pond In the great beyond The kingdom of eternal dawn Calling out to me: “come explore my mystery” Says the halo of the moon ---

I look at you and suddenly, something in your eyes I see; Soon begins bewitching me. It’s that old devil moon that you stole from the skies. It’s that old devil moon in your eyes. You and you glance make this romance too hot to handle. Stars in the night, blazing their light can’t hold a candle; To your razzle-dazzle. You’ve got me flyin’ high and wide, on a magic carpet ride; Full of butterflies inside. Wanna cry, wanna croon, wanna laugh like a loon. It’s that old devil moon in your eyes. Just when I think, I’m free as a dove. Old devil moon, deep in your eyes, blinds me with love. ---

Give 'em the old razzle dazzle Razzle Dazzle 'em Give 'em an act with lots of flash in it And the reaction will be passionate Give 'em the old hocus pocus Bead and feather 'em How can they see with sequins in their eyes? What if your hinges all are rusting? What if, in fact, you’re just disgusting? Razzle dazzle 'em And they’ll never catch wise! ---

Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see. I assure you, and I mean it- Now, who says I don’t speak out as plain as day? And, fellow Texans, I’m for progress and the flag- long may it fly. I’m a poor boy, come to greatness. So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie. Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don’t- I’ve come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step, cut a little swathe and lead the people on. ---

Dearly beloved We are gathered here today To get through this thing called “life” Electric word, life It means forever and that’s a mighty long time But I’m here to tell you There’s something else, The afterworld A world of never ending happiness You can always see the sun, day or night So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills You know the one, Dr. Everything’ll-Be-Alright Instead of asking him how much of your time is left Ask him how much of your mind, baby Cause in this life Things are much harder than in the afterworld In this life, You’re on your own And if the elevator tries to bring you down Go crazy ---

I feel so bad I got a worried mind I’m so lonesome all the time Since I left my baby behind On Blue Bayou Saving nickles, saving dimes Working 'til the sun don’t shine Looking forward to happier times On Blue Bayou I’m going back someday Come what may To Blue Bayou Where the folks are fine And the world is mine On Blue Bayou Where those fishing boats With their sails afloat If I could only see That familiar sunrise Through sleepy eyes How happy I’d be Gonna see my baby again Gonna be with some of my friends Maybe I’ll feel better again On Blue Bayou ---
