Standing in the dock at Southampton,
Trying to get to Holland or France.
The man in the mac said, “You’ve got to turn back!”
You know they didn’t even give us a chance
Christ you know it ain’t easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They’re going to crucify me
Come and keep your comrade warm
“Come on baby don’t be cold as ice,”
I said, “I’m travelling on the one after 909.”
This happened once before
When I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn’t you
But I saw you peep through
Your window
I saw the lie, I saw the lie
I know that you saw me
As I looked up to your face
She came in through the bathroom window.
So meet me tonight, just where the light shines from a window,
and as I take your hand, say that you’ll be mine tonight.
Oh, I would be so glad just to have a love like that,
oh, I would be true and I’d live my life for you.
So meet me tonight, just where the light shines from a window,
and as I take your hand, say that you’ll be mine tonight.
Her Majesty’s a pretty nice girl
But she doesn’t have a lot to say
Her Majesty’s a pretty nice girl
But she changes from day to day
I want to tell her that I love her a lot
But I gotta get a bellyful of wine
Her Majesty’s a pretty nice girl
Someday I’m going to make her mine, oh yeah
Someday I’m going to make her mine
Michelle, ma belle
These are words that go together well
My Michelle
Michelle, ma belle
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble
I love you, I love you, I love you
That’s all I want to say
Until I find a way
I will say the only words I know that you’ll understand
Day after day, alone on the hill
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he’s just a fool
As he never gives an answer
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around
Born a poor young country boy, Mother Nature’s son,
All day long I’m sitting singing songs for ev’ryone.
Sit beside a mountain stream, see her waters rise;
Listen to the pretty sound of music as she flies.
Sitting on a cornflake waiting for the van to come
Corporation t-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man you been a naughty boy. You let your face grow long
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo goo goo joob
Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creep in like a nun
Monday’s child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run
Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest
See how they run
Lady Madonna, lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head
See how they run
Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends m
The best things in life are free.
But you can give them to the birds and bees!
Just give me money!
That’s what I want!
Can’t buy me love. No, no, no, no!
Would you believe in a love at first sight?
There were birds all around, but I never heard them singing,
No, I never heard them at all, 'til there was you!
Listen
Do you want to know a secret
Do you promise not to tell, whoa oh, oh
Closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I’m in love with you
I’ve known the secret for a week or two
Nobody knows, just we two
You think you know me, but you haven’t got a clue.
I’m looking through you, where did you go?
I thought I knew you, what did I know?
You don’t look different, but you have changed.
I’m looking through you, you’re not the same.
Looking through the bent backed tulips
To see how the other half live,
Looking through a glass onion.
