I’ve Got A Crush On You
How glad a million laddies From millionaires to caddies Would be to capture me But you had such persistence You wore down my resistance I fell, and it was swell You're my big and brave and handsome Romeo How I won you, I will never, never know It's not that you're attractive But, oh, my heart grew active When you came into view I've got a crush on you, Sweetie pie All the day and night-time, hear me sigh I never had the least notion That I could fall with so much emotion Could you coo? Could you care For a cunning cottage that we could share? The world will pardon my mush 'Cause I have got a crush, my baby, on you I've got a crush on you, Sweetie pie All the day and night-time, hear me sigh I never had the least notion That I could fall with so much emotion Could you coo?

Fascinating Rhythm
Fascinating Rhythm, You've got me on the go! Fascinating Rhythm, I'm all a-quiver. What a mess you're making! The neighbors wanna to know Why I'm always shaking Just like a fliver.

Won't you take a day off? Decide to run along Somewhere far away off, And make it snappy! Oh, how I long to be the girl I used to be!

Don't Get Around Much Anymore
Missed the Saturday dance Heard they crowded the floor Couldn't bear it without you Don't get around much anymore I thought I'd visit the club Got as far as the door They'd have asked me about you Don't get around much anymore Darling, I guess that my mind's more at ease Oh, nevertheless, why stir up memories?

Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)
Who can I turn to when nobody needs me? My heart wants to know, and so I must go where destiny leads me With no star to guide me, and no one beside me I'll go on my way, and after the day the darkness will hide me And maybe tomorrow I'll find what I'm after I'll throw off my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter With you, I could learn to, with you, what a new day But who can I turn to if you turn away? ♪ And maybe tomorrow I'll find what I'm after I'll throw off my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter With you, I could learn to, with you, what a new day But who can I turn to if you turn away?

When Do the Bells Ring for Me
I wonder when do the bells ring for me? When someone tugs a heartstring for me? When does it come my time? When does the poem rhyme? When do the songs they sing, sing for me? To those who say, "Hey, wake up and feel life" I say, "I'm ready, show me the way" Show me those arms that say, "Welcome to real life" And we'll stay, we'll stay How many parties more can I run to? How many little loves can there be Before it's all a bore? Forget it, I want more I want someone who wants more of me Like making promises good in the daylight The thing is here am I, where is she? When is it my chance? When is it my dance? When do the bells ring for me?

When all the world is a hopeless jumble And the raindrops tumble all around Heaven opens a magic lane When all the clouds darken up the skyway There's a rainbow highway to be found Leading from your windowpane To a place behind the sun Just a step beyond the rain Somewhere, over the rainbow Way up high There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere, over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere, over the rainbow Bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh, why can't I? ♪ Somewhere, over the rainbow Bluebirds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh, why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why Can't I? ♪ Let's go there

Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words) - Live at Sony Studios, New York City, NY - April 1994
This is so terrific being unplugged, only like it Let's really, let's really get unplugged Okay, we're gonna get over, Vans, can we turn all the microphone off? Thanks Poets often use many words to say a simple thing It takes thought and time and rhyme to make a poem sing With music and words I've been playing For you, I have written a song To be sure that you know what I'm saying I'll translate as I go along Fly me to the moon Let me play among the stars Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars In other words, hold my hand Other words, darling, kiss me Fill my heart with song Let me sing forevermore You are all I longed for All I worship and adore In other words, please be true In other words, I love you ♪ You are beautiful

I've Got the World On a String
Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue Clouds have rolled away and the sun peaks through May express happiness Joy you may define in a thousand ways But a case like mine needs a special phrase To reveal how I feel I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow Got the string around my finger What a world, what a life, I'm in love I've got a song that I sing, I can make the rain go Anytime I move my finger Lucky me, can't you see I'm in love? Life is a beautiful thing as long as I hold the string I'd be a silly so-and-so if I should ever let it go ♪ I've got the world on a string, sitting on a rainbow I've got the string around my finger What a world, what a life, I'm in love

When In Rome

It Had To Be You
It seems like dreams like I've always had Could be, should be, makin' me glad Why am I blue?

Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a blowtorch burning I was a key that could use a little turning So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I couldn't keep Promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I couldn't keep It seems no one can help me now I'm in too deep, there's no way out This time I have really led myself astray Runaway train, never going back Wrong way on a one-way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Can you help me remember how to smile? Make it somehow all seem worthwhile How on earth did I get so jaded? Life's mystery, seems so faded I can go where no one else can go I know what no one else knows Here I am just a-drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train And everything seems cut and dried Day and night, earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it Runaway train, never going back Wrong way on a one-way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughing at the rain A little out of touch, a little insane It's just easier than dealing with the pain Runaway train, never going back Wrong way on a one-way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there Runaway train, never coming back Runaway train, tearing up the track Runaway train, burning in my veins I run away, but it always seems the same

Summer of Drugs (2022 Remaster)
My sister got bit by a copperhead snake In the woods behind the house Nobody was home so I grabbed her foot And I sucked that poison out My sister got better in a month or two When the swellin' it went down But I'd started off my teenage years With a poison in my mouth And we were too young to be hippies Missed out on the love We turned to a teen in the late 70's In the summer of the drugs Mama and daddy could never understand Their life was never dull Their idea of a rollickin' time Was a kitchen tap appall Acid grass downs and speed Junk those days were made of How could they suspect those kids Where the monsters meet their makers? And they were too young to be hippies Missed out on the love Learned from the teen of the late 70's In the summer of the drugs Boys and girls in every town Sand man spread his sand around Now we are just wakin' up From a summer of drugs Mommies and daddies were too shy to talk About those birds and bees Integrated schools had stopped The facts of life were these Girls and boys went away and came back Empty after the weekend The talk on the phone consisted of The hushed voices speakin' And they were too young to be hippies Missed out on the love Learned from the teen of the late 70's In the summer of the drugs Yes they were too young, they were to fast Oh the summer of the drugs

Now everybody's looking after me If I'm dragging by some coat tail, I can't see; it's too dark But I've got to know what's got the best of me When the circus that you left goes on parade In those bleacher seats so far in your charade, it's too far But I'm feeling like I don't dare look away Don't look away Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon? When you wake up feeling lost in your own room If you're crying in your beer, you're gonna drown If you think we'll rise above, you better look around, you'll see It's a mountain made of sand comin' under me Maybe I'm chasing shadows on your wall They loom so large, but make me feel so small so hard When you're chasing your own tail spinning your own wheels On a night when the wolves were all silent (tried everything, tried looking away) And the moon howled (I tried to leave, I tried to stay, tried everything, tried looking away) Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon? You're in the movies now and I'm in your cartoon There's a ringing in my ear that's heaven-sent There's a beast out on the ruins, some broken down lover's lament It goes on and on but it won't go away

Like... how can I tell you I love you When i know that you wanna be friends You got done wrong in the past And I think that's it stupid of them I ain't ever felt this way Icl it's the reason I stress I wanna tell you how I feel But I find it hard to confess For you I would've gave my heart But I'm scared that you wouldn't take it I don't wanna open up Cah I'm scared of my heart just breaking You told me that you wasn't ready Just know that I'm always waiting I told you I'll wait for u But instead you left my heart aching I know that I did you wrong But 2 wrongs don't make a right I try telling you how I feel I wanna get this shit off my mind But instead you just wanna argue It hurts everytime we fight You try putting the blame on me But like Chanel man I c both sides It's time that I put me first So I'm chasing the bag not girls Why would I ever put you before me When it's always me who gets hurt These girls think that there all prestige I tell her to know your worth Hate on the kid but it is what it is One day onelife take over the world Like I ain't tryna break your heart so why the fuck you gotta break mine And I really been taking time to better myself and heal my mind Mum I know that I made you cry This life chose me never chose this life They ask if I'm good I say that I'm fine, but deep down I know it's a lie I need some help im not gunna ask Cah I know if I do there stabbing my back So I put my pain in a track Gotta grind 24s I ain't tryna slack You say that your in love but it's just a facade cah I know if you leave your not coming back I say DTB but I do trust girls but I lose that trust when they cheat on man I know that I did you wrong But 2 wrongs don't make a right I try telling you how I feel I wanna get this shit off my mind But instead you just wanna argue It hurts everytime we fight You try putting the blame on me But like Chanel man I c both sides It's time that I put me first So I'm chasing the bag not girls Why would I ever put you before me When it's always me who gets hurt These girls think that there all prestige I tell her to know your worth Hate on the kid but it is what it is One day onelife take over the world I know that I did you wrong But 2 wrongs don't make a right I try telling you how I feel I wanna get this shit off my mind But instead you just wanna argue It hurts everytime we fight You try putting the blame on me But like Chanel man I c both sides It's time that I put me first So I'm chasing the bag not girls Why would I ever put you before me When it's always me who gets hurt These girls think that there all prestige I tell her to know your worth Hate on the kid but it is what it is One day onelife take over the world
