uh, long distance, directory-assistance, area code 212"
I said, “Hey mama, this is Mr. Rhythm-and-Blues”
He said hello and put me on hold
To say the least, the cat was cold
He said, “Don’t call us, child, we’ll call you”
I said, “You got my number?”
He said, “Yeah, I got it when you walked in the door”
Don’t call us… we’ll call you
Don’t call us… we’ll call you
My phone rang and my heart sang, my baby’s called at last
Instead it was a friend who said that Joannie’s car had crashed
I never should’ve let her drive home angry from my place
I’d never hold her again and kiss that funny face
But still there was a way to hear her voice again
The phone rang once, the phone rang twice
And then I heard her say
Hello, this is Joannie, I’m sorry but I’m not home
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I’ll phone
And her face, at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Crazy Janey and her mission man were back in the alley trading hands
'Long came Wild Billy with his friend G-Man all duded up for Saturday night
Well, Billy slammed on his coaster brakes and said, “Anybody wanna go on up to Greasy Lake?
It’s about a mile down on the dark side of route eighty-eight, I got a bottle of rose so let’s try it
We’ll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe and I’ll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go
They’re built like light
Ooh, and they dance like spirits in the night” (all night)
In the night (all night)
Springsteen
All night (all night), all night (all night)
All night (all night), yeah do it, do it, do it (all night)
Everyone, everyone, dancin’, yeah (all night)
Every, every, all night long (all night)
C’mon y’all, feel good, all night, all night (all night)
All night, all night, yeah all night, all night, all night (all night)
Thank you very much everybody
We like a long neck and a good old song
Turn it up and then we sing along
Sing along
We’re all stayin’ up all night long
There was green alligators and long-necked geese,
Some humpty-backed camels and some chimpanzees,
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you’re born,
The loveliest of all was the Unicorn.
In the middle of the night by the light of an Arab moon,
They say that you can see him stompin’ up and down the dunes.
He’s a big raunchy cat but he swings right along,
Groovin’ to the beat of a Nashville song –
Uh-huh (uh-huh) – oh yeah (oh yeah),
Talkin’ 'bout Humphrey the Camel.
Humphrey the Camel – Jack Blanchard & Misty Morgan
-“BB”-
Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed
Shadows painting our faces
Traces of romance in our heads
Heaven’s holding a half-moon
Shining just for us
Let’s slip off to a sand dune, real soon
And kick up a little dust
– Maria Muldaur
When the wind’s from the east
And the sun’s from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down
Stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night
Well, you don’t know what we can find
Why don’t you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You have to believe we are magic
Nothin’ can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don’t let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Destiny will arrive
I’ll bring all your dreams alive
For you
“Come on home, girl” he said with a smile
“You don’t have to love me yet, let’s get high awhile
But try to understand, try to understand
Try, try, try to understand, I’m a magic man”
We’ve got magic to do… Just for you
We’ve got miracle plays to play
We’ve got parts to perform… Hearts to warm
Kings and things to take by storm
As we go along
Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I’ve looked at clouds that way
Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell
Cloudy
The sky is gray and white and cloudy
I can see clearly now, the rain has gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright, bright sun-shining day
It’s gonna be a bright, bright sun-shining day
Here comes the sun (doot-n-doo-doo)
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right.
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Baby shark!
Baby Shark – Pinkfong
-“BB”-
People are afraid of oceans
They just put on sunscreen lotions
And watch waves for sudden motions
Because of outdated notions
That a shark’s an evil creature
(He’s a shark)
