Sometimes late when things are real And people share the gift of gab between themselves Some are quick to take the bait And catch the perfect prize that waits among the shelves But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man That he didn't, didn't already have And Cause never was the reason for the evening Or the tropic of Sir Galahad. So please believe in me When I say I'm spinning round, round, round, round Smoke glass stain bright color Image going down, down, down, down Soapsuds green like bubbles Oh, Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man That he didn't, didn't already have And Cause never was the reason for the evening Or the tropic of Sir Galahad So please believe in me When I say I'm spinning round, round, round, round Smoke glass stain bright color Image going down, down, down, down Soapsuds green like bubbles No, Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man That he didn't, didn't already have And Cause never was the reason for the evening Or the tropic of Sir Galahad So please believe in me
Hey, Daddy just lost his pay What did he do it for It never made it through our door He drank the week away
What can a family say There must be a better way Now, Mama don't start to cry Let's give him another try
Pick up the telephone Tell him you want him home To sit and watch the evenings pass And readin' the Leaves of Grass
I'm caught in a closing door It's pinning me to the floor Now, Mama don't start to cry Let's give him another try
I'm caught in a closing door It's pinning me to the floor Now, Mama don't start to cry Let's give him another try
When we're old and gray And the things we say Are the things we rarely mean So why cause a scene When things ain't what they seem 'Cause the end result's the same
Now what can a family say There must be a better way Now, Mama don't start to cry Let's give him another try
This is for all the lonely people Thinking that life has passed them by Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup And ride that highway in the sky
This is for all the single people Thinking that love has left them dry Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup You never know until you try
Well, I'm on my way Yes, I'm back to stay Well, I'm on my way back home Hit it
This is for all the lonely people Thinking that life has passed them by Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup She'll never take you down or never give you up You'll never know until you try
Orange and yellow and purple and green The lights of the city at night set the scene Stumble through the bars of forget-me-not lane Sparkle through the glitter but don't show the pain
In Hollywood Underneath a golden palm tree Hollywood Come to the party the drinks are on me For free
Heartbeats echo through a cavern of love Come to the tavern I'll meet you up above Soaring through the heavens, what a fabulous ride But everybody's heading for the same place to hide
In Hollywood Underneath a golden palm tree Hollywood Come to the party the drinks are on me For free The drink's on me For free The drink's on me For free The drink's on me The drink's on me The drink's on me The drink's on me
For the last time I watched Old Man Took bait his hook And then throw his line Pick up his wine
He's a friend of mine Known him all my life and his wife 'Neath the swayin' pine And the clingin' vine Just before he left
He said now young man Take good care don't let the bugs bite Please make sure to say a word at night For all your brothers feeling blue Blue, blue, blue All the time
So I stayed awhile Took my tea alone, called it home Like a playing child Running wild
Heard a bluejay call Said we got you now Hope you bow To the old man's word I'm sure you heard Just before he left
He said now young man Take good care don't let the bugs bite Please make sure to say a word at night For all your brothers feeling blue Blue, blue, blue All the time
Now young man Take good care don't let the bugs bite Please make sure to say a word at night For all your brothers feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue Feeling blue ...
(Great hits of the sixties) Look the lady's got a photograph Silver framed and velvet backed Well, she took it quite a while ago Funny that she never let me know
What does it matter to me If it doesn't show I just don't know It's only just a memory Just a little history Oh, oh, oh
And now she's wearing satin shoes Gilded hair to pay the dues I guess that I should tip my hat I wonder if she'd think of looking back
What does it matter to me If it doesn't show I just don't know It's only just a memory Just a little history Oh, oh
In the parking lot late at night Paper straws never worked out right I knew I wanted to But didn't know why So I just said "Hi" (Everybody sing along now)
Sat here thinking about my heart All of the places it came apart There's just one thing that I need to know Why am I always chasing the rainbow
Get it get it get it get it get it get it get it uh huh I ran through the meadow looking for a dream Truth is never like what it seems I guess there's always so far to go Why am I always chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it get it uh huh
Where is the light Where is the love Where are the dreams that I once had Frittered away Gone in the time it takes to get from there to here
Get it get it get it Get it get it get it uh huh Get it get it get it chasing the rainbow Why am I always chasing the rainbow
I'd draw you a picture cause it just might help To point out the place where we went so wrong The only color I'd use is blue Why am I always chasing the rainbow
Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it get it uh huh Get it get it chasing the rainbow
Why am I always chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Why am I always chasing the rainbow Get it get it chasing the rainbow Get it get it get it uh huh . . .
One chance For a true love If a heart breaks, Does it break forever? There'll be no more, Though you want back together
You soon will start running baby, I know you will. Though I've seen it coming lately, I love you still. How long must I keep on trying To change your mind? How long till there's no denying We're out of time?
Is there really just, One chance At a true love If a heart breaks, Does it break forever? There'll be no more, Though you want back together.
Is there really just, One chance At a new start But just one glance Tells you it doesn't matter So you turn 'round so you Don't have to face it.
Where are you goin' baby? Where have you been? I don't even know you lately, Let me back in. I guess I'll just keep on waiting, It's all I can do. Feels like the future's fadin' into the blue.

Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode Driftin' off a thing I'd never done before Watchin' the crowd roll in, out go the lights it begins A feelin' in my bones I never felt before Mmm...
People always told me that bars are dark and lonely And talk is often cheap and filled with air Sure sometimes they thrill me But nothin' could ever chill me Like the way they make the time just disappear
Feelin' you here again, hot on my skin again Feelin' good a thing I'd never known before What does it mean to feel, millions of dreams come real A feelin' in my soul I'd never felt before Mmm...
And you, you always told me No matter how long it holds me If it falls apart or makes us millionaires You'll be right here forever We'll go thru this thing together And on heaven's golden shore we'll lay our heads
To make a mountain of your life Is just a choice But I never learned enough To listen to the voice that told me.. Always love... Hate will get you every time Always love... Don't wait till the finish line
Slow demands come 'round Squeeze the air and keep the rest out It helps to write it down Even when you then cross it out
Always love... Hate will get you every time Always love... Even when you wanna fight
Self-directed lives I want to know what it'd be like to Aim so high above Any card that you get dealt you...
Always love... Hate will get you every time Always love... Hate will get you
I've been held back by something Yeah, you said to me quietly on the stairs, I've been held back by something Yeah, you said to me quietly on the stairs You said... Hey, you good ones Hey, you good ones
To make a mountain of your life Is just a choice But I never learned enough To listen to the voice that told me Always love... hate will get you every time Always love... hate will get you…

Ride on into the driving rain Once more follow the trail Long gone into the setting sun Ride on you must not fail
Speak out carry the message forth Make time use every day Reach out to every shining star Ride on follow the way
And if your journey should end in the promised land Make sure to speak with a voice loud and true Shalalalala shalalalala shalalalala Ride on
Ride on into the driving rain Once more seek out the fire Reach out to every shining star Ride on you must not tire
And if your journey should end will you understand What you have learned and what you've been through Shalalalala shalalalala shalalalala Shalalalala shalalalala shalalalala Ride on, ride on, ride on, ride on, ride on, ride on
Hey Slim how long's it been Five minutes maybe 10 Can't wait to see you again and again First taste of this romance Hell baby I almost danced Caught myself close to believing But every time is a brand new feeling Lay me down in cool clear water For a moment I've forgot her Still I know where this is leading
Win, lose, which we choose Won once and once refused Already burning down the fuse Don't wanna be building walls Cause everything rising falls It's darkness here the light's concealing Love it seems is too revealing Hidden in some secret place Etched in lines around my face The ghosts in here are all competing Over one more song about love and leaving Ummmmm
Down, down we all fall down Down, down we all fall down We all fall down, yeah we all fall down Let's toast to new love blooming It's all around and all consuming It's a dream you're bound to follow Til you find it's only hollow I can hear the angels grieving Over one more song about love and leaving Ummmmm
I'm feelin' alright I'm sleepin' OK I'm getting to work on time But everything else I guess Has really turned out a mess Oohhh
What can I do What can I say Nothing will change your mind I‘m thinkin' that I should call But baby I'm not that kind
Woman look at me now I'm doing better on my own somehow Woman I'm making my way through the day now Hey now Woman look what you've done Unleashed this fool on everyone Woman I'm making my way through the day
I'm shining my shirt I've ironed my shoes I think that I'm lookin' fine I'm getting all kinds of looks Forgot how much time it took
I run out of gas I fall on my ass It's happenin' all the time What am I doing wrong I'm practicing all day long
Woman look at me now I'm doing better on my own somehow Woman I'm making my way through the day now Hey now Woman look what you've done Unleashed this fool on everyone Woman I'm making my way through the day
Life is so strange Roles constantly changing Hey hey hey
Woman look at me now I'm doing better on my own somehow Woman look what you've done Unleashed this fool on everyone Woman look at me now Dih diddah dih diddah Woman look at me now Dih diddah diddah Woman look at me now Di diddah di diddah Woman look at me now
