Hear the sound of music
Drifting in the aisles
Elevator Prozac
Stretching on for miles
The music of the future
Will not entertain
It’s only meant to repress
And neutralize your brain
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
“Life’s just much too hard today,”
I hear ev’ry mother say
The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day
I never smoked with no cigarettes
I never drank much booze
But I’m only a man, don’t you understand
And a man can sometimes lose
You gave me something I never had
Pulled me down with you
Pulled me up, think I’m in love
Hope you can pull me through
I overdosed on you
I overdosed on you
Crazy but it’s true
Ain’t nothing I can do
I overdosed on you
You had plenty money nineteen twenty-two
You let other women make a fool of you
Why don’t you do right
Like some other men do?
Get out of here, get me some money, too
I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don’t want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know I love you 99
99
You keep holding my hand
Oh 99
They don’t know who I am
Oh 99
I love you
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, “Something’s out there”
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.
Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?
Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?
We could float among the stars, together you and I
For we can fly, up, up and away
(For we can fly)
Up, up and away in my beautiful, my beautiful balloon
I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly
I’d fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please
Oh I want to get away
I want to fly away
Yeah yeah yeah
I’m learning to fly, but I ain’t got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol’ days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
A soul in tension that’s learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I
Whose grey sky was this?
Or was it a blue one?
Nights there were breezes?
I’ve heard records of breezes,
And you tell me you’ve felt one?
Yesterday’s love was like a warm summer breeze
But, like the weather ya changed
Now things are dreary, baby
And it’s windy and cold
And I stand alone in the rain
It’s raining men! Hallelujah! - It’s raining men! Amen!
I’m gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It’s raining men! Hallelujah!
It’s raining men! Every specimen!
Men, men, men,
It’s a ship all filled with men,
So batten down the ladies’ room,
There’s no one here but men!
In the navy
You can sail the seven seas
In the navy
You can put your mind at ease
I’m Popeye the Sailor Man. I’m Popeye the Sailor Man.
I’m strong to the finich, cause I eats me spinach.
I’m Popeye the Sailor Man
And knowing that you would have wanted it this way
I do believe I’m feelin’ stronger every day
I know we really tried together we had love inside
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Bonds will break and fade
A snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you
A show of strength
Is all you want
You can never set it down
Liar, liar, pants on fire
Your nose is longer than a telephone wire
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can’t disguise
(You can’t disguise, no you can’t disguise)
