--Intro--
Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. Happier than you and me. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. And it determined what he could see. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. One chromosome too many. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. And it determined what he could see. And he wore a hat And he had a job And he brought home the bacon So that no one knew He was a mongoloid, mongoloid. His friends were unaware. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. Nobody even cared. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. One chromosome too many. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. And it determined what he could see And he wore a hat And he had a job And he brought home the bacon So that no one knew He was a mongoloid, mongoloid. Happier than you and me. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. And it determined what he could see. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. One chromosome too many. Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid. And it determined what he could see. --Solo-- And he wore a hat And he had a job And he brought home the bacon So that no one knew Mongoloid, he was a mongoloid |

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get me no satisfaction And I try and I try and I try t-t-t-t-try try I can't get no I can't get me no When I'm riding in my car And a man comes on the radio He's tellin' me more and more About some useless information Supposed to fire my imagination I can't get no uh no no no Hey hey hey that's what I say I can't get no satisfaction I can't get me no girly action When I'm watchin' my tv And a man comes on to tell me How white my shirts could me But he can't be a man 'cause he does not smoke The same cigarettes as me And when I'm flying around the world And I'm doin' this and I'm tryin' do that And I'm trying to make some girl Tells me baby better come back later next week Can't you see I'm on a losing streak ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BARLOW, GARY/JAGGER, MICK/RICHARDS, KEITH <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree She sends out an aroma of undefined love It drips on down in a mist from above [Chorus] She's just the girl, she's just the girl The girl you want She's just the girl, she's just the girl The girl you want You hear her calling everywhere you turn You know you're headed for the pleasure burn But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue She's the real thing but you knew it all along [Chorus] Look at you with your mouth watering Look at you with your mind spinnin' Why don't we just admit it's all over She's just the girl you want [Chorus] She sings from somewhere you can't see She sits in the top of the greenest tree She sends out an aroma of undefined love It drips on down in a mist from above [Chorus] Look at you with your mouth watering Look at you with your mind spinnin' Why don't we just admit it's all over She's just the girl you want [Chorus] She's just the girl, she's just the girl The girl you want She's just the girl, she's just the girl |

A victim of collision on the open sea
Nobody ever said that life was free Sank, swam, go down with the ship But use your freedom of choice I'll say it again in the land of the free Use your freedom of choice Your freedom of choice In ancient Rome There was a poem About a dog Who found two bones He picked at one He licked the other He went in circles He dropped dead Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom of choice! is what you want! Then if you got it you don't want it Seems to be the rule of thumb Don't be tricked by what you see You got two ways to go I'll say it again in the land of the free Use your freedom of choice Freedom of choice Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom of choice! In ancient Rome There was a poem About a dog Who found two bones He picked at one He licked the other He went in circles He dropped dead Freedom of choice Is what you got Freedom from choice Is what you want (repeat) |

Peekaboo
I can see you And I know what you do So put your hands on your face And cover up your eyes Don't look until I signal Peekaboo Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Peekaboo The way that we weren't Is what we'll become So please pay attention While I show you some Of what's about to happen Peekaboo I know what you do Cause I do it too So put your hands on your face And cover up your eyes Don't look until I signal Peekaboo Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Peekaboo Laugh if you want to or say you don't care If you can not see it, you think it's not there It doesn't work that way Peekaboo I can see you And I know what you do So put your hands on your face And cover up your eyes Don't look until I signal Peekaboo Ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha Peekaboo |

We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits Going to bang some heads Going to beat some butts Time to show those evil spuds what's what If you live in a small town You might meet a dozen or two Young alien types who step out And dare to declare Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts Time to clean some house Be a man or a mouse Waste those who make it tough to get around If you live in a big place Many factions underground Chase down mister hinky dink So no trace can be found Put the tape on erase Rearrange a face We always liked Picasso anyway Mash 'em |

Everybody it's a good thing
Everybody wants a good thing Everybody ain't it true that Everybody's looking for the same thing Ain't it true there's just no doubt There's some things that you can't do without And that's good Ain't it true as the sun that shines You got yours and you got mine And that's good Everybody just like you it's true Everybody wants a good thing too Everybody it's a good thing Everybody wants a good thing Everybody ain't it true that Everybody's looking for the same thing Ain't it true there's room for doubt Maybe some things that you can do without And that's good Everybody just like you it's true Everybody wants a good thing too Now let's have a great big hand For everybody who can understand Life's a bee without a buzz It's going great till you get stung And let us not forget to toast Everyone who might have missed the boat And to everybody else who waits Until the next one sails in again [Repeats] Everybody it's a good thing Ain't it true it's a monumental good thing |

Jonee went to the pawnshop
Bought himself a guitar Now he's gonna go far You gotta love 'em and leave 'em Sometimes you deceive 'em You made her cry Jonee you're bad You're gonna make her sad Jonee jumped in his Datsun Drove out on the expressway Went head-on into a semi His guitar is all that's left now He made her cry Now she calls his name Jonee you're to blame |

You know I live a life of danger
For the FBI Keeping tabs on our nation On the land, on the sea, in the sky But every single night Before I go to bed I get down on my knees And thank God I'm a secret agent man Secret agent man Secret agent man They've given me a number But they've taken 'way my name I got one hell of a job to perform For the U. S. of A. Got the responsibility Of our nation's top security But every night and day I salute the flag and say Thank you, Jesus 'Cause I'm, I'm a secret agent man Secret agent man You know they got me doin' this Doin' that And a little bit of something else Fighting cavities of evil Safe-guarding America's health But not an afternoon pass I don't get up off my ass Thank you God 'Cause I'm, I'm a secret agent man Secret agent man Secret agent man 'Cause I'm a secret agent man |

I got a surprise from my honey
I got a message from my girl When she picked up a pen from the side of her and Wrote me a scribbled note That she was coming back to see She was visiting real soon Gonna get up from the long, white bed And leave this cold white room Wah-ooo We was once more living together From an all-night loving spree Just like the morning accident My baby, well, look at me I saw her sweet face trembling as she tried to open her eyes I jumped with the joy of a grateful boy the day my baby gave me a surprise Wah-ooo I got a surprise from my honey I got a message from my girl When she picked up a pen from the side of her and Wrote me a scribbled note I saw her sweet face trembling as she tried to open her eyes I jumped with the joy of a grateful boy the day my baby gave me a surprise Wah-ooo |
