This thing called love, I just can't handle it This thing called love, I must get 'round to it I ain't ready Crazy little thing called love This thing (this thing) called love (called love) It cries (like a baby) in a cradle all night It swings (woo-ooo), it jives (woo-woo) It shakes all over like a jelly fish I kinda like it Crazy little thing called love There goes my baby She knows how to rock and roll She drives me crazy She gives me hot and cold fever Then she leaves me in a cool, cool sweat I gotta be cool, relax Get hip, get on my tracks Take a back seat, hitch-hike |
And take a long ride on my motor bike Until I'm ready Crazy little thing called love I gotta be cool relax Get hip and get on my tracks Take a back seat, hitch-hike And take a long ride on my motor bike Until I'm ready Crazy little thing called love This thing called love, I just can't handle it This thing called love, I must get 'round to it I ain't ready Crazy little thing called love Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah |

Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run, girl, You're much too young, girl With all the charms of a woman You've kept the secret of your youth You led me to believe You're old enough To give me Love And now it hurts to know the truth, Oh, Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run, girl, You're much too young, girl Beneath your perfume and make-up You're just a baby in disguise And though you know That it is wrong to be Alone with me That come on look is in your eyes, Oh, |
Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run, girl, You're much too young, girl So hurry home to your mama I'm sure she wonders where you are Get out of here Before I have the time To change my mind 'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far, Oh, Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run, girl, You're much too young, girl Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run, girl, You're much too young, girl |

Them that's got shall get Them that's not shall lose So the Bible said and it still is news Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Yes, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own |
Money, you've got lots of friends Crowding round the door When you're gone, spending ends They don't come no more Rich relations give Crust of bread and such You can help yourself But don't take too much Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own He just worry 'bout nothin' Cause he's got his own |

Say you don't need no diamond ring And I'll be satisfied Tell me that you want the kind of things That money just can't buy I don't care too much for money Money can't buy me love <instrumental interlude> Can't buy me lo-ove Everybody tells me so Can't buy me lo-ove No, no, no, no Say you don't need no diamond ring And I'll be satisfied Tell me that you want the kind of things That money just can't buy I don't care too much for money Money can't buy me love Can't buy me lo-ove, lo-ove Can't buy me lo-o-ove |

Me and Mrs. Jones, we got a thing going on, We both know that it's wrong But it's much too strong to let it cool down now. We meet ev'ry day at the same cafe, Six-thirty I know she'll be there, Holding hands, making all kinds of plans While the jukebox plays our favorite song. Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones got a thing going on, We both know that it's wrong, But it's much too strong to let it cool down now. |
We gotta be extra careful that we don't build our hopes too high Cause she's got her own obligations and so do I, Me, me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones got a thing going on, We both know that it's wrong, But it's much too strong to let it cool down now. Well, it's time for us to be leaving, It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside, Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine, But tomorrow we'll meet the same place, the same time. Me and Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones. |

I'm breakin' rocks in the hot sun I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won I needed money 'cause I had none I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won I left my baby and I feel so sad I guess my race is run But she's the best girl I've ever had I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won |
Robbin' people with a six-gun I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won I miss my baby and the good fun I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won I left my baby and I feel so sad I guess my race is run But she's the best girl I've ever had I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won |

Well she got her daddy's car And she cruised through the hamburger stand now Seems she forgot all about the library Like she told her old man now And with the radio blasting Goes cruising just as fast as she can now And she'll have fun fun fun 'Til her daddy takes the T-Bird away (Fun fun fun 'til her daddy takes the T-Bird away) Well the girls can't stand her 'Cause she walks looks and drives like an ace now (You walk like an ace now you walk like an ace) She makes the Indy 500 look like a Roman chariot race now (You look like an ace now you look like an ace) A lotta guys try to catch her But she leads them on a wild goose chase now (You drive like an ace now you drive like an ace) And she'll have fun fun fun 'Til her daddy takes the T-Bird away (Fun fun fun 'til her daddy takes the T-Bird away) Well you knew all along That your dad was gettin' wise to you now (You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied) And since he took your set of keys You've been thinking that your fun is all through now (You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied) But you can come along with me 'Cause we gotta a lot of things to do now (You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied) And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-Bird away (Fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-Bird away) |

I can see clearly now the rain is 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) bright (bright) sunshinin' day. It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day. Oh yes, I can make it now the pain is gone. All of the bad feelings have disappeared. Here is the rainbow I've been praying for. It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright) sunshinin' day. Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies. Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies. |

Promises, promises I'm all through with promises, promises now I don't know how I got the nerve to walk out If I shout, remember I feel free Now I can look at myself and be proud I'm laughing out loud Oh, promises, promises This is where those promises, promises end I don't pretend that what was wrong can be right Every night I sleep now, no more lies Things that I promised myself fell apart But I found my heart Oh, promises, their kind of promises, can just destroy a life Oh, promises, those kind of promises, take all the joy from life Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises Can lead to joy and hope and love Yes, love!! |

I'll say goodbye to love
No one ever cared if I should live or die Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by And all I know of love is how to live without it I just can't seem to find it. So I've made my mind up I must live my life alone And though it's not the easy way I guess I've always known I'd say goodbye to love. There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine Surely time will lose these bitter memories And I'll find that there is someone to believe in And to live for something I could live for. |
All the years of useless search have finally reached an end Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend From this day love is forgotten I'll go on as best I can. I'll say goodbye to love No one ever cared if I should live or die Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by And all I know of love is how to live without it I just can't seem to find it. What lies in the future is a mystery to us all No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls There may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong But for now this is my song. And it's goodbye to love I'll say goodbye to love. |

I come home in the morning light My mother says when you gonna live your life right Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones And girls they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun 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 want to have fun Oh girls just want to have - |
That's all they really want Some fun When the working day is done Girls - they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun Some boys take a beautiful girl And hide her away from the rest of the world I want to be the one to walk in the sun Oh girls they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have |
|
That's all they really want Some fun When the working day is done Girls - they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun, They want to have fun |

My funny Valentine Sweet comic Valentine You make me smile with my heart Your looks are laughable Unphotographable Yet you're my favourite work of art Is your figure less than Greek Is your mouth a little weak When you open it to speak Are you smart? But don't change a hair for me Not if you care for me Stay little Valentine stay Each day is Valentine's day |

Well, I don't know why I came here tonight.
I got a feeling that
something
ain't right. I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair and I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs. Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right, here am I stuck in the middle with you. Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you and I'm wondering what it is I should do. It's so hard to keep this smile from my face, losing control, I'm all over the place. Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right, here am I stuck in the middle with you. Well, you started off with nothing and you're proud that you're a self-made man. And your friends they all come crawling, slap you on the back and say, please, please. Stuck in the middle with you and I'm wondering what it is I should do. Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor? I don't think that I can take it anymore. Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right, here am I stuck in the middle with you. Well, you started off with nothing and you're proud that you're a self-made man. And your friends they all come crawling, slap you on the back and say, please, please. Well, I don't know why I came here tonight. I got a feeling that something ain't right. I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair and I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs. Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right, here am I stuck in the middle with you. |

I have a dream, a song to sing To help me cope with anything If you see the wonder of a fairy tale You can take the future even if you fail I believe in angels Something good in everything I see I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I'll cross the stream - I have a dream I have a dream, a fantasy To help me through reality And my destination makes it worth the while Pushing through the darkness still another mile I believe in angels Something good in everything I see I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I'll cross the stream - I have a dream I'll cross the stream - I have a dream I have a dream, a song to sing To help me cope with anything If you see the wonder of a fairy tale You can take the future even if you fail I believe in angels Something good in everything I see I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I'll cross the stream - I have a dream I'll cross the stream - I have a dream |

Another Op'nin', Another Show In Philly, Boston or Baltimo' A chance for stage folks to say hello Another Op'nin' of another show. Another job that you hope at last Will make your future forget your past Another pain where the ulcers grow Another op'nin' of another show |
Four weeks you rehearse and rehearse Three weeks and it couldn't be worse One week will it ever be right? Then out of the hat it's that big first night The overture is about to start You cross your fingers and hold your heart It's curtain time and away we go..... Another op'nin' of another show |
|
Baby you look at me And tell me what you see You ain't seen the best of me yet Give me time I'll make you forget the rest I got more than you And you can set it free I can catch the moon in my hand Don't you know who I am Remember my name Fame I'm gonna live for ever I'm gonna learn how to fly I feel it coming together People will see me and cry I'm gonna make it to heaven Light up the sky like a flame I'm gonna live forever Baby remember my name Baby you hold me tight Cause you can make it right |
You can shoot me straight to the top Give me love and take all I got Baby I'll return Too much is not enough I can ride your heart till it breaks Oh I got what it takes Fame I'm gonna live for ever I'm gonna learn how to fly I feel it coming together People will see me and cry I'm gonna make it to heaven Light up the sky like a flame I'm gonna live forever Baby remember my name Fame I'm gonna make it to heaven Light up the sky like a flame I'm gonna live forever Baby remember my name |

I've been alive forever, And I wrote the very first song I put the words and the melodies together I am music and I write the songs I write the songs that make the whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs My home lies deep within you And I've got my own place in your soul Now, when I look out through your eyes I'm young again, even though I'm very old |
I write the songs that make the whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs Oh my music makes you dance And gives you spirit to take a chance And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move Music fills your heart Well, that's a real fine place to start It's from me it's for you It's from you, it's for me It's a worldwide symphony |
|
I write the songs that make the whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs |

LA's fine, the sun shines most the time And the feeling is laid back Palm trees grow and rents are low But I keep thinkin' 'bout makin my way back We'll I'm New York City born and raised But now days I'm lost between two shores LA's fine but it ain't home New York's home but it ain't mine no more I am I said To no one there And no one heard at all not even the chair I am I cried I am said I And I am lost and I can't even say why Leaving me lonely still |
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of being a king? And then became one. Well except for the names and a few other changes If you talk about me, the story's the same one But I've got a emptiness deep inside And I tried but it won't let me go And I'm not a man who likes to swear But I never cared for the sound of being alone I am I said To no one there And no one heard at all not even the chair I am I cried I am said I And I am lost and I can't even say why Leaving me lonely still |

I took off for a weekend last month Just to try and recall the whole year All of the faces and all of the places Wonderin' where they all disappeared I didn't ponder the question too long I was hungry and went out for a bite Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum And we wound up drinkin' all night It's these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same With all of our running and all of our cunning If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane |
Reading departure signs in some big airport Reminds me of the places I've been Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure Makes me want to go back again If it suddenly ended tomorrow I could somehow adjust to the fall Good times and riches and son of a bitches I've seen more than I can recall These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same Through all of the islands and all of the highlands If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane |
|
I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine I wish I could jump on a plane So many nights I just dream of the ocean God I wish I was sailin' again Oh, yesterday's over my shoulder So I can't look back for too long There's just too much to see waiting in front of me And I know that I just can't go wrong With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same With all of my running and all of my cunning If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane If we weren't all crazy we would go insane |
