Only A Northern Song
All Together Now Hey Bulldog It's all too much
If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not;
He just wrote it like that.
It doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say or time of day it is
As it's only a Northern song
It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
When it's only a Northern song.
When you're listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are, they just play it like that
It doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say or time of day it is
As it's only a Northern song
It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
When it's only a Northern song.
If you think the harmony
is a little dark and out of key
You're correct, there's nobody there.
It doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say or time of day it is
And I told you there's no one there.

Sheep dog standing in the rain
Bull frog doing it again.
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles.
What makes you think you're something special when you smile.
Child-like yeah, no one understands.
Jack-knife in your sweaty hands.
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years.
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears.
You can talk to me,
You can talk to me,
You can talk to me,
If you're lonely you can talk to me (yeah!)
Big man walking in the park
Wigwam frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude is measured out in you
You think you know it but your haven't got a clue.
You can talk to me,
You can talk to me,
You can talk to me,
If you're lonely you can talk to me (yeah!)
Hey bulldog, hey bulldog, hey bulldog
Hey, bulldog, Woof!

I said woof!

Wowu-wa Ah!

It's all too much
It's all too much
When I look into your eyes
Your love is there for me
And the more I go inside
The more there is to see
It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to take it's all too much.
Floating down the stream of time
From life to life with me
Makes no difference where you are
or where you'd like to be.
It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around here.
All the world is a birthday cake
so take a piece but not too much.
Sail me on a silver sun
Where I know that I am free
Show me that I'm everywhere
and get me home for tea.
It's all too much for me to take
There's plenty for everybody
the more you give the more you get
The more it is and it's too much.
It's all too much for me to see
The love that's shining all around you
The more you learn the less I know
But what I do is all too much.
It's all too much for me to take
The love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to take it's all too much.
It's much; it's much.
It's too much
Ah! it's too much
You are too much ah!
We are dead ah!
Too much, too much, too much-a.
