Cannibal chiefs chew Camembert cheese
'cause chewing keeps 'em cheeky
Big Fat Fred sticks fur to his head
'cause he thinks fur makes him freaky
Benjamin Bland and his Bugle Band blow the blues bi-weekly
(Yee hoo hoo!)
How many pies can a porpoise poise on purpose if she pleases?
I got up at eight, it was half past two
I said to myself, "Well, how do you do?"
I've gotta get on, so I soon got off
Stuck a clean shirt on, and had a good cough
Back at the boozer, a bloke I knew
Said he knew a secret no one knew
He pinched some snuff, and he sniffed and sighed
So I pinched his snout, and he replied,
"Cannibal chiefs chew Camembert cheese
'cause chewing keeps 'em cheeky
Big Fat Fred sticks fur to his head
'cause he thinks fur makes him freaky
Benjamin Bland and his Bugle Band blow the blues bi-weekly
How many pies can a porpoise poise on purpose if she pleases?"
Here am I a sailor
Seabirds fly above me
Listen to their cry
See them in the sky above me
Here am I a sailor
Fishes swim below me
Even while I sleep
Growing in the deep below me
I rode a long worm to the end of the line
I asked Tin Man if he'd tell me the time
He took off his hat, and he took off his head
Took off Max Bygraves, here's what he said,
"You take first right and second left."
The man in the moon says, "How's your chest?"
The man in the sun says, "Have another one!"
So we're all tanked up and singing along
Cannibal chiefs chew camembert cheese
'cause chewing keeps 'em cheeky
Big Fat Fred fixes fur to his head
'cause he thinks fur makes him freaky
Benjamin Bland and his Bugle Band blow the blues bi-weekly
(Mmmmm, mm)
How many pies can a porpoise poise on purpose if she pleases?

Lady Mine
Oh, Lady Mine
How you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine
Tell me, where can I find you?
All around your figure flows
All around, your garden grows
Lady Mine, Lady Mine
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Tell me how you can hide by my side
Oooh, oh oh oh oooh Lady Mine
Oh, Lady Mine
How you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine
Tell me where can I find you?
All your stars appear so cold
They seem to light another world
Lady Mine, Lady Mine
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Lady Mine, let me come again to you
Tell me how you can hide by my side
Oooh, oh oh oh oh
Oh, Lady Mine, how you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine, how you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine, how you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine, how you drive me out of your mind
Oh, Lady Mine

L'Amour Perdu
L'amour perdu to circumstances
Et tout le monde et Tuesday too
Avec le raison d'*tre-mental
Cynical comment allez-vous
"Ello Sailor" m*me choses you love me
Et je t'adore et windows too
Regardez-moi poor heart is aching
Toujours l'amour et merci beaucoup

La Vie en Rose
Such a cold, cold morning
The wind against my face
No special feelings,
Just a sleepless night to taste
I never had so many memories to waste
Oh oh, la vie en rose
Such a girl can make you
And then you wonder why,
When in the morning
You find a way to say goodbye
But did it have to take all night
To kiss away each lie?
Oh oh, la vie en rose
Oh oh, la vie en rose
When love is new
The stars are in your eyes
When love is new
The world is in disguise
When love is new
You take any chance
But love is friendship
Much more than romance
Such a cold, cold morning
The wind against my face
No special feelings
Just a sleepless night to taste
I never had so many memories to waste
Oh oh, la vie en rose
Oh , la vie en rose
Ohh, la vie en rose
Ohh, la vie en rose
Ohh, la vie en rose
Ohh, la vie en rose
Ohh...

Lazy Days
Now life can get you down
And make you wear a frown
When you're working your fingers to the bone
So listen close to me;
Here's my recipe
It's easy, you can do it on your own
Simply close your eyes
Imagine paradise
Now you can't go wrong
As you sing this little song
Lazy days will soon be here again
cares and troubles toodle-oo
No need to hurry, no need to worry
Mr. Bluebird, how-do-you-do
Let the sunshine fill your heart with joy
Boys and girls come out to play
Don't sit and ponder, look over yonder
Here come those lazy days
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lead Us
You follow every impulse
With remarkable control
Your movements are precise
A marvel to us all
You dominate the skyline
Yet no one knows your shape
You point the way so clearly
Yet no one can escape
Lead us
We shall follow
We shall follow you
Whatever quick reaction
Your intuition makes
Your method is precise
However long it takes
And so we all must follow
Each time you make your move
Though the truth is hard to swallow
Even harder to disprove
Lead us
We shall follow
We shall follow you
Though the way is incomplete
Though your chariot stands still
We shall not admit defeat
We shall not delay the kill
Ah lead us
We shall follow
We shall follow you
Oh lead us
We shall follow
We shall follow you

Libido
Caramba, ay, ay, ay!
The moon is bright above
The stars are in the sky,
The night was made for love
Caramba, ay, ay, ay!
Se?orita por favor
Take me in your arms and love me ever more
Libido, libido, libido
Boys and girls come out to play
Libido, libido, libido
Dancing the night away!
They say little girls are made of sugar and spice
and all things nice but I don't think so (Oh No!)
No I don't think so (Ah!)
They say little boys are made of slugs and snails
and puppy dogs' tails but I don't think so (Oh no!)
No I don't think so (Ah ha!)
Libido, libido, libido
Boys and girls come out to play
Libido, libido, libido
Dancing the night away
Knows plenty Nostradamus
Scope horo solitaire
A chink we call Confucius
Vamanos Fred Astaire
Banditos con pistolas
a paso doble too
Hasta la ma?ana
when I come home to you
Libido, libido, libido
Boys and girls come out to play
Libido, libido, libido
Dancing the night away
Libido, libido, libido
Boys and girls come out to play
Libido, libido, libido
Dancing the night away
Everybody Dance!

Lie Down And Be Counted
There's no song for the singer
No words for the tune
There's a mess in the message
And a man on the moon
There's no plan in the planet
It's all gone berserk
There's a milk bottle shortage
And the traffic lights don't work
Lie down and be counted
Don't take any more
Lie down and be counted
What are we standing for?
But there's hope for the couples who stroll in the park
There's nuclear power to light up the dark
There's national health and ice in the fridge
And the occasional cow on a motorway bridge
There's extended credit on easier terms
And something to kill all known household germs
There's sofas and armchairs and washing machines
Stars on Sunday, fishfingers and beans
Lie down and be counted
Don't take any more
Lie down and be counted
What are we standing for?
There's no song for the singer, no words for the tune
There's a mess in the message and a man on the moon
There's no plan in the planet, it's all gone berserk
There's an everything shortage and the traffic lights still don't work
Lie down and be counted
Don't take any more
Lie down and be counted
What are we standing for?
Lie down and be counted
Don't take any more
Lie down and be counted
What are we standing for?

Livin' In Hope
I grew up in the country
Beside a chicken shack
So I left for the city
And I didn't look back
Now, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope
Walkin' round the city
Feelin' all alone
Nobody told me
The streets are paved with stone
But, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
I'm livin' in hope
Can't find my feet, or a friendly face
In this God-forsaken town
Nobody stops to lend a hand
Unless they wanna put you down
No
Got no woman
Or a steady job
Feelin' like a cowboy
And lookin' like a slob
But, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
I'm livin' in hope
Nothin' in my pocket
Nowhere to go
Lookin' for a handout
But no one wants to know
Well, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope
I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope (livin' in hope)
Livin' in hope

Lonely Phobia
You look forlorn, too tired to yawn
As pale as a moon on a bright afternoon
Your face is drawn
You've got lonely phobia and I only hope ya get better
You sit and stare, beyond all care
But mirrors don't lie and the look in your eye
Is showing your despair
You've got lonely phobia and I only hope ya get better
Another love could set you free but you're afraid (afraid)
To go (to go)
Another love may prove to be no better than the devil you know
It's late (it's late) at night (at night)
You feel (you feel) uptight (uptight)
Your lover's in bed while the thoughts in your head
Are far (are far) from light (from light)
You've got lonely phobia and I only hope ya get better
Another love could set you free but you're afraid (afraid)
To go (to go)
Another love may prove to be no better than the devil you know
You look forlorn, too tired to yawn
As pale as a moon on a bright afternoon
Your face is drawn
You've got lonely phobia and I only hope ya get better
You've got lonely phobia and I only hope ya get better

Long Ago
Long ago
When dreams were young
And days were filled
With endless wonders
And a river
Slowly sliding by
Dressed in finest
Clear blue sunny sky
Friends will know
If things seem wrong
And they'd be thrilled
To help you understand
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look Out, There's A Monster Coming
(Stanshall)
And three, four
Lonely, unmarried, looking for love
Life was passing me by
So, I sent off my photo, ?hope is an age?
Magazine marriage, I'll try
They say for centuries, lovely Japanese girls
Have been trained in the art of pleasing men
Be lonely no more, open Destiny's door
For one dollar, they arrange a meeting
My image was wrong, I didn't like me
So I changed my personality
I bought a deluxe Mersey Beat wig
But it was a size too big
What confidence in my new built up shoes
So smart for winter or summer
Undetectable in normal every day use
Look out, there's a monster coming
Bye-bye binoculars, and Macintosh
Everything is just great
I take elocution, learn to speak posh
But still I can't find a mate
Be popular, learn to play the guitar
In 7 days, you can be strumming
Be sociable, learn kissing technique
Look out, there's a monster coming
For my Carnaby clothes, I reshape my nose
Plastic surgery's best
To cut down my weight, off comes my left leg
I passed the swimming costume test
Are my sideboards too long? Don't my aftershave ?pong?
I know my new nose ain't running
What's wrong with my tie, am I getting too high?
Look out, there's a monster coming
Disfiguring, ugly, my facial hair
I had removed, electrically
I rejuvenated my energy cells
And regained my virility, grunt grunt
He put my hand on my heart, ?I changily part?
He had a machine for a Mummy
Please be gentle with me, I come to pieces, literally
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming
Look out, there's a monster coming

Love Is Getting Deeper
We have no time for lover's games of hide-and-seek or cat-and-mouse
I come home tired, you call me names, you work all week at keeping
house
I understand the drudgery of what you do, but don't you think
the office is the same for me?
You ask me to unblock the sink.
Life is getting shorter
Nickel dime and quarter
Talk is getting cheaper
Love is getting deeper
I get to work under the sink, I bang my head, the spanner slips
I cut my hand and wish I had a drink but curse instead the water drips
You nag at me, I raise my voice, the baby's toys are on the floor
You say be quiet, I have no choice;
the slightest noise disturbs next door.
Life is getting shorter
Nickel dime and quarter
Talk is getting cheaper
Love is getting deeper
The kettle boils, the baby cries, I pick him up, his little teeth are
coming
through
I dry his eyes, you break a cup and underneath the kitchen light
your pretty face is close to tears and so my heart goes out to you
As we embrace, love reappears
to play its part
Life is getting shorter
Nickel dime and quarter
Talk is getting cheaper
Love is getting deeper
Life is getting shorter
Nickel dime and quarter
Talk is getting cheaper
Love is getting deeper

Mommy's twenty something
Daddy's over thirty
Go to sleep, my baby
And don't do that,
It's dirty
Right!
