Album 1

Back In The U.S.S.R.

Flew in from Miami Beach, B.O.A.C.,
Didn't get to bed last night.
On the way, the paper bag was on my knee;
Man, I had a dreadful flight.

I'm Back In The U.S.S.R.,
You don't know how lucky you are, boys,
Back In The U.S.S.R.

Been away so long, I hardly knew the place,
Gee, it's good to be back home.
Leave it 'til tomorrow to unpack my 'case,
Honey, disconnect the phone.

I'm Back In The U.S.S.R.,
You don't know how lucky you are, boys,
Back In The U.S.,
Back In The U.S.,
Back In The U.S.S.R.

Well, the Ukraine girls really knock me out (ooh ooh ooh ooh).
They leave the West behind.
And Moscow girls make me scream and shout (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
That's Georgia's always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi--mi-mind!

I'm Back In The U.S.S.R.,
You don't know how lucky you are, boys,
Back In The U.S.S.R.

Well, the Ukraine girls really knock me out (ooh ooh ooh ooh).
They leave the West behind.
And Moscow girls make me scream and shout (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
That's Georgia's always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi--mi-mind!

Show me 'round your snow-peaked mountains way down south,
Take me to your daddy's farm.
Let me hear your balalaika's ringing out;
Come and keep your comrade warm.

I'm Back In The U.S.S.R.,
You don't know how lucky you are, boys,
Back In The U.S.S.R.
Ah, let me tell you honey, I'm Back!


Dear Prudence

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day.
The sun is up, the sky is blue,
It's beautiful, and so are you.
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?

Dear Prudence, open up your eyes.
Dear Prudence, see the sunny skies.
The wind is low, the birds will sing
That you are part of everything.
Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes?

Look around (round, round, round, round, round, round, round, round, round, round),
Look around (round, round, round, round, round, round,, round, round, round, round, round),
Look around.

Dear Prudence, let me see you smile.
Dear Prudence, like a little child.
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again.
Dear Prudence, won't you let me see you smile?

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day.
The sun is up, the sky is blue,
It's beautiful, and so are you.
Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play?

Glass Onion

I told you 'bout Strawberry Fields,
You know, the place where nothing is real.
Well, here's another place you can go
Where ev'rything flows.

Looking through the bent-backed tulips
To see how the other half live.
Looking through a Glass Onion.

I told you 'bout the Walrus and me, man.
You know that we're as close as can be, man.
Well, here's another clue for you all:
The Walrus was Paul!

Standing on the cast iron shore, yeah.
Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet, yeah.
Looking through a Glass Onion.

Oh yeah,
Oh yeah,
Oh yeah!

I told you 'bout the Fool on the Hill,
I tell you, man, he living there still!
Well, here's another place you can be,
Listen to me!

Fixing a Hole in the ocean,
Trying to make a dove-tail joint, yeah.
Looking through a Glass Onion.


Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da

Desmond has a barrow in the market place,
Molly is the singer in a band.
Desmond says to Molly, "Girl, I like your face",
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand:

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller's store,
Buys a twenty carat golden ring.
Takes it back to Molly, waiting at the door,
And as he gives it to her, she begins to sing:

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.
Oh-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.

In a couple of years they have built
A home, sweet home,
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones.

Happy ever after in the market place,
Desmond lets the children lend a hand.
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face,
And in the evening, she still sings it with the band.

Yes!
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.

In a couple of years they have built
A home, sweet home,
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones.

Happy ever after in the market place,
Molly lets the children lend a hand.
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face,
And in the evening, she's a singer with the band.

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, life goes on, brah!
Lala how the life goes on.

And if you want some fun:
Take Ob-La-Di-'b-La-Da.
(Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, brother!)


Wild Honey Pie

Honey Pie,

Honey Pie,

The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill

Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?

He went out tiger hunting with his elephant and gun.
In case of accidents, he always took his mom.
He's the all-American, bullet-headed, Saxon mother's son.
All the children sing.

Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?

Deep in the jungle, where the mighty tiger lies,
Bill and his elephant are taken by surprise,
So Captain Marvel zapped in right between the eyes.
All the children sing.

Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?

The children asked him if to kill was not a sin.
"Not when he looked so fierce," his mommy butted in.
"If looks could kill, it would have been us instead of him."
All the children sing.

Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill,
What did you kill,
Bungalow Bill?

Hey, Bungalow Bill,

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping,
While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping,
Still My Guitar Gently Weeps.

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love.
I don't know how someone controlled you.
They bought and sold you.

I look at the world and I notice it's turning,
While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
With ev'ry mistake, we must surely be learning,
Still My Guitar Gently Weeps.

I don't know how you were diverted,
You were perverted too.
I don't know how you were inverted,
No one alerted you.

I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping,
While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Look at you all. . .
Still My Guitar Gently Weeps. . .


Happiness Is A Warm Gun

She's not a girl who misses much.
Do do do do do do oh yeah.
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane.

The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors
On his hobnail boots,
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
Working overtime.
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust.

I need a fix 'cause I'm going down,
Down to the bits that I left uptown.
I need a fix 'cause I'm going down.

Mother Superior jump the gun.
Mother Superior jump the gun.
Mother Superior jump the gun.
Mother Superior jump the gun.
Mother Superior jump the gun.
Mother Superior jump the gun.

Happiness Is A Warm Gun, (Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Happiness Is A Warm Gun, momma. (Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
When I hold you in my arms, (Oh, yeah, ooh)
And I feel my finger on your trigger (Oh, yeah, ooh),
I know no body can do me no harm (Oh, yeah).
Because (Happiness) Is A Warm Gun, momma. (Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Happiness Is A Warm Gun, yes it is. (Bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Happiness Is A Warm
--Yes it is, Gun!
(Happiness, bang, bang, shoot, shoot)
Well, don't you know that Happiness (Happiness) Is A Warm Gun
(Is A Warm Gun, yeah).


Martha My Dear

Martha, My Dear, though I spend my days in conversation,
Please, remember me,
Martha, my love,
Don't forget me,
Martha, My Dear.

Hold your head up, you silly girl; look what you've done!
When you find yourself in the thick of it,
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you.
Silly girl.

Take a good look around you,
Take a good look, you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be for each other.
Silly girl.

Hold your hand out, you silly girl; see what you've done!
When you find yourself in the thick of it,
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you.
Silly girl.

Martha, My Dear, you have always been my inspiration,
Please, be good to me,
Martha, my love,
Don't forget me,
Martha, My Dear.

I'm So Tired

I'm So Tired, I haven't slept a wink.
I'm So Tired, my mind is on the blink.
I wonder, should I get up and fix myself a drink?
No, no, no!

I'm So Tired, I don't know what to do.
I'm So Tired, my mind is set on you.
I wonder, should I call you? But I know what you'd do.

You'd say I'm putting you on,
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm.
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain.
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane!
You know I'd give you ev'rything I've got for a little peace of mind.

I'm So Tired, I'm feeling so upset.
Although I'm So Tired, I'll have another cigarette,
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh,
He was such a stupid get.

You'd say I'm putting you on,
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm.
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain.
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane!
You know I'd give you ev'rything I've got for a little peace of mind.
Give you ev'rything I've got for a little peace of mind.
Give you ev'rything I've got for a little peace of mind.

Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see.
All your life,
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird, fly.
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the dark, black night.

Blackbird, fly.
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the dark, black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life,
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Piggies

Have you seen the little Piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little Piggies,
Life is getting worse;
Always having dirt to play around in.

Have you seen the bigger Piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger Piggies
Stirring up the dirt;
Always have clean shirts to play around in.

In their styes with all their backing,
They don't care what goes on around.
In their eyes, there's something lacking;
What they need's a damn good whacking!

Ev'rywhere there's lots of Piggies,
Living piggy lives.
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives.
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon.


Rocky Raccoon

(Paul, spoken):
Now, somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon.
Anod one day his woman ran off with another guy,
Hit young Rocky in he eye; Rocky didn't like that.
He said, "I'm gonna get tha boy."
So one day he walked into town,
Booked himself a room in the local saloon.

(sung):
Rocky Raccoon checked into his room,
Only to find Gideon's Bible.
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival.
His rival it seems, had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil,
But ev'ryone knew her as Nancy.
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan,
Were in the next room at the hoedown.
Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin,
He said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown."
But Daniel was hot,
He drew first and shot,
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.

Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin,
And proceeded to lie on the table.
He said "Rocky, you met your match,"
And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch,
And I'll be better,
I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able."

Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible.
Gideon checked out, and he left it no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival.
That's the story of Rocky Raccoon.


Don't Pass Me By

I listen for your footsteps
Coming up the drive.
Listen for your footsteps,
But they don't arrive.
Waiting for your knock, dear,
On my old front door;
I don't hear it,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?

I hear the clock a'ticking,
On the mantel shelf.
See the hands a'moving,
But I'm by myself.
I wonder where you are tonight
And why I'm by myself.
I dont' see you,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?

Don't Pass Me By, don't make me cry, don't make me blue,
'Cause you know, darling, I love only you.
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I'll hate to see you go.
Don't Pass Me By, don't make me cry.

I'm sorry that I doubted you,
I was so unfair;
You were in a car crash
And you lost your hair.
You said that you would be late,
About an hour or two,
I said, "That's alright, I'm waiting here,
Just waiting to hear from you."

Don't Pass Me By, don't make me cry, don't make me blue,
'Cause you know, darling, I love only you.
You'll never know it hurt me so,
I'll hate to see you go.
Don't Pass Me By, don't make me cry.


Why Don't We Do It In The Road?

Why Don't We Do It In The Road?
Why Don't We Do It In The Road?

Why Don't We Do It In The Road?

I Will

Who knows how long I've loved you?
You know I love you still.
Will I wait a lonely lifetime?
If you want me to, I Will.

For if I ever saw you,
I didn't catch your name.
But it never really mattered;
I Will always feel the same.

Love you forever and forever,
Love you with all my heart.
Love you whenever we're together,
Love you when we're apart.

And when, at last, I find you,
Your song will fill the air.
Sing it loud so I can hear you.
Make it easy to be near you.
For the things you do endear you to me,
Oh, you know I Will.
I Will.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm,
La da da da da da da.


Julia

Half of what I say is meaningless,
But I say it just to reach you, Julia.

Julia, Julia,
Ocean Child calls me.
So I sing a song of love, Julia.

Julia, seashell eyes,
Windy smile calls me.
So I sing a song of love, Julia.

Her hair of floatin sky is shimmering,
Glimmering in the sun.

Julia, Julia,
Morning moon, touch me.
So I sing a song of love, Julia.

When I cannot sing my heart,
I can only speak my mind, Julia.

Julia, sleeping sand,
Silent cloud, touch me.
So I sing a song love, Julia.

Hmm hmm hmmm, . . . calls me.
So I sing a song of love for Julia,
Julia, Julia.

Yer Blues

(Two, three..)
Yes, I'm lonely, wanna die.
Yes I'm lonely, wanna die.
If I ain't dead already,
Wooh, girl, you know the reason why.

In the morning, wanna die.
In the evening, wanna die.
If I ain't dead already,
Wooh, girl, you know the reason why.

My mother was of the sky,
My father was of the earth.
And I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth.

I'm lonely, wanna die.
If I ain't dead already,
Wooh, girl, you know the reason why.

The eagle picks my eye,
The worm, he licks my bone.
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones.

Lonely, wanna die.
If I ain't dead already,
Wooh, girl, you know the reason why.

Black cloud crossed my mind,
Blue mist 'round my soul.
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll.

Wanna die, yeah, wanna die.
If I ain't dead already,
Wooh, girl, you know the reason why.

(Yes I'm lonely, wanna die.
Yes, I'm lonely, wanna die.
If I'm not dead already,
Girl, you know the reason why).
