I met him in a swamp down in Dagobah
Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda
S-O-D-A, soda
I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said “Yoda”
Y-O-D-A, Yoda
Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yoda
Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
She would merengue and do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
Daddy said: I’ll break your bones
If you come home dressed in Peacock clothes
Mother said: quit the show
She didn’t want the neighbors to know
Candy had to quit the show
My momma talkin’ to me tryin’ to tell me how to live
But I don’t listen to her 'cause my head is like a sieve
My daddy, he disowned me 'cause I wear my sister’s clothes
He caught me in the bathroom with a pair of pantyhose
The phone rings, in the middle of the night
My father yells, “What you gonna do with your life?”
Oh daddy dear, you know you’re still number one
But girls, they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have
He isn’t much in the eyes of the world He’ll never make history
No, he isn’t much in the eyes of the world, But he is the world to me
My dad, now here is a man
To me he is ev’rything strong no he can’t do wrong, my dad
My dad, now he understands when I bring him troubles to share
Oh, he’s always there, my dad
Oh, my pa-pa, so funny, so adorable
Always the clown so funny in his way
Oh, my pa-pa, to me he was so wonderful
Deep in my heart I miss him so today
Happy ever after in the marketplace
Molly lets the children lend a hand
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she’s a singer with the band
And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you’re the only other person to know, don’t tell me
I’m just a singer in a rock and roll band.

Sometimes I think maybe we’ll patch it all up
Like a favorite pair of jeans that you won’t give up on
Or maybe one of these arguments will make up
And start again like when we started this up
Back when everything was fresh
And every moment a blessing
I’d laugh at all of your jokes
You’d listen to my suggestions
One mind, one soul,
One common destination
Now we can’t help but fight over the direction
Let us be lovers, we’ll marry our fortunes together
I’ve got some real estate here in my bag"
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies
And walked off to look for America
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot, and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
I’ve looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It’s life’s illusions I recall
I really don’t know life at all
Sometimes, I can’t help the feeling that I’m
Living a life of illusion
And oh, why can’t we let it be
And see through the hole in this wall of confusion
I just can’t help the feeling, I’m living a life of illusion
Come with me and you’ll be
In a world of pure imagination
Leave your cares behind
Come with us and find
The pleasures of a journey
To the center of the mind.
Journey to the Center of the Mind – The Amboy Dukes

Journey’s End Blue waves are rolling Visions in my mind
Of a strange voice calling Journey’s at an end, journey’s at an end
Journey’s at an end, journey’s at an end Hear the anchor sinking Voices ringing clear
Farewell from my kindred And friends I love so dear, and friends I love so dear
Journey’s at an end, journey’s at an end.
Clannad
We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming
“Do you come from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder
You better run, you better take cover.”
