Sadie (The Cleaning Lady)
Gilmore, Madara and WhiteSadie, the cleaning lady
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of water
Worked her fingers to the bone, for the life she had at home
Providing at the same time for her daughter
Ahh Sadie, the cleaning lady
Her aching knees not getting any younger
Well her red detergent hands, have for years not held a man's
And time would find her heart expired of hunger
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Ahh Sadie, the cleaning la-ady
Her female mind would find a way of trapping
Though as gentle as a lamb, Sam the elevator man
So she could spend the night by TV, napping
Ahh Sadie, the cleaning lady
Her aching knees not getting any younger
Well her red detergent hands, have for years not held a man's
And time would find her heart expired of hunger
Ahh, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Ahh Sadie, the cleaning lady
Her Sam was what she got, hook, line and sinker
To her sorrow and dismay, she's still working to this day
Her Sam turned out to be a nervous figure
Ahh, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie
One
H. NilssonOne is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It's the loneliest number since the number o-o-one
No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes it's the saddest experience you'll ever know
Oh-oh-oh
'Cause, one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One is the loneliest number, when you're lost at two
It's just no good anymore
Since you went away-ay-ay
Now I spend my time
Makin' rhymes of yesterday
One is the loneliest number
O-one is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Woh-one is the loneliest
Woh-one is the loneliest
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
It's just no good anymore
Since you went away-ay-ay
Number one is the loneliest
Number one is the loneliest
Number one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Number one is the loneliest
Number one is the loneliest
Number one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One..., woh-oh-woh-oh
One...
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One..., woh-oh-woh-oh
One..., yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
One...
Looking Through A Tear
B. Scott and A. ResnickWhen love leaves and breaks your heart
Your dreams simply fall apart
You see a world sad and blue
So unfamiliar to you
You look for lips that you once kissed
But they're lost in mist
Oh oh oh oh it's funny
How nothing seems quite so clear
When you're looking through a tear
The face in the crowd
You see is her face
All seems to fade in the shade of her glory
And you wait for the chance
To catch another glance
But she really wasn't there
Her words linger in your ear
Goodbye is all that you can hear
It couldn't happen to you
But all at once love is through
It's funny
How nothing seems clear
When you're looking through a tear
Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head
B. Bacharach and H. DavidRaindrops are falling on my head
I'm just like a guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
So I just did me some talking to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me wont defeat me
It wont be long till happiness steps up to greet me
'Cause raindrops keep falling on my head
Hah, but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Cryins not for me
Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free
Nothings worrying me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
Hah, but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Cryins not for me
Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free
Nothins worrying me
Cosmic Conversation
J. BromleyI'm going to ask your friends your number
And I'll call you when your man is out of town
And if I say the right words at the right time
Then perhaps you'll even have me 'round
And wouldn't it be a funny situation
The two of us and a comic conversation
How's the world been treating you you'd say
Trying not to get involved in any way
Have you been as fancy free
As how you said you'd like to be
Comic Conversation will pass the time of day
When all the while I'm dying to reach out
And hold you in my arms the way I used to do
I cannot help thinking that you feel the same
But comic conversation rules the game
I'd like to spin a web
And wrap you in its silver thread and
Feel you sway
Oh-oh, but many years have passed
And with them went the right I ever had to
Feel this way
No-oh, there isn't going to be a happy ending
I think I should be going soon
I can't keep on pretending
How's the world been treating you you'd say
Trying not to get involved in any way
Oh have you been as fancy free
As how you said you'd like to be
Comic Conversation will pass the time of day
When all the while I'm dying to reach out
And hold you in my arms the way I used to do
And I cannot help thinking that you feel the same
But comic conversation is the only way
Don't You Know It's Magic
B. CaddSee her at the carnival
Where she comes from nobody knows
Now that you ask me
I guess I like the way she wears her clothes
The way she smiles at me
My heart just swells it grows and grows
You think I'm telling you fairytales
I suppose
Don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
Look in her eyes they're a little bit hazy
Paradise coming to a sweet little lady
Well don't you know it's magic
Oh baby it's magic
Magic carpet ride for a woman in love
Take a gun and shoot your friend
As long as you take your turn
When you're only six years old
You own the world you've got friends to burn
If you wanna be an Indian chief or a sheriff
Respect you've got to earn
Fairytales, you gotta learn
Don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
See the little boy just standing there
A bow in his hand, a feather in his hair
Well don't you know it's magic
Ah baby its magic
Magic carpet ride for the little boy's dream
When you're dealing with your brother
Man to man
And you need a helping hand
All you gotta do
Is take a positive view
Oh you know you can
Please, believe you can
Don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
Take the hand of your brother and do what's best
Give a whole lotta lovin' and happiness
Well don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
Magic carpet ride for you and me
Don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
Magic carpet ride for you and me
Don't you know it's magic
Ah baby it's magic
Magic carpet ride
For you and me
Everything Is Out Of Season
Cook and GreenwayEverything is out of season
The price of love is higher than the moon
Everything is out of season
Your kiss is like a wintry fall in June
And quite soon, you will be go-one
Everything is out of season
Your taste is like a frozen tangerine
Shivering without a reason
I think that's gonna be the promontory
Too much sunshine has come my way-ay-ay, baby
I can see you're lookin' fine
Lovin' kept on ice I can use anytime
To love was so much warmer on a colder day
Not so far away
And there's somethin' very strange that I just had to say-ay...
Everything is out of season
And dreams have got a way of growin' o-o-old
Everything is out of season
I think I've gone and caught a summer cold
And quite soon, you will be go-one, yeah, baby
Alright
I can see you're lookin' fine
Lovin' kept on ice I can use anytime
To love you was so warmer on a colder day
Not so far away
And there's somethin' very strange that I just had to say-ay-ay
Wh-oh-woh-oh, everything is out of season, yeah
Dreams of got a way of growin' old, baby
Everything is out of season
And I think I've gone and caught a summer cold
And quite soon, you will be go-one baby
Everything is out of season
Everything is out of season
Everything is out of season, baby
Help
J. Lennon and P. McCartneyWhen I was younger, so much younger than today-ay-ay
I never needed a-anybody's help in anyway-ay
But now these days are gone
I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind
I've opened up the doors
Help me if you can I'm feelin' down
And I do appreciate you bein' 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, plea-ea-ease, help me
And now my life has changed, in oh so many ways
My independence, seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
But I know that I just need you, like I've never done before-ore
Help me if you can I'm feelin' down
And I do appreciate you bein' 'round
Oh help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, plea-ea-ease, help me
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in anyway-ay
But now those days are gone
I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind
I've opened up the doors
Help me if you can I'm feelin' down
And I do appreciate you bein' 'round
Oh help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, plea-ea-ease, help me
Won't you please, plea-ea-ease, help me
Matilda
G. Goble
Infatuation
M. Brady and G. GobleYou invite a little love and make me feel alright
You come 'round here to stay all night
You kick me around and put me down
And you really shouldn't do that
You don't come home 'til the early light
I think you're with another and I'm up all night
I just don't know why I love you so
I really couldn't tell you
You got a wonderin' eye, a jealous heart
Your cheatin' ways are keepin' us apart
You say you're gonna stay with me
But I can see it's just infatuation
I try to think it over in my head each day
I gotta get out, gotta get away
But I know you've got such a hold on me
I really couldn't do that
So I'll keep on loving you with all I've got
It takes my time, it takes a lot
And you'll never show what I want to know
You really couldn't tell me
You got a wonderin' eye, a jealous heart
Your cheatin' ways are keepin' us apart
You say you're gonna stay with me
But I can see, it's just infatuation
Infatuation is bringin' me down
I look in the mirror, I'm wearin' a frown
I long to be with you, it's not worth my while
Each night you leave me with only your smile
Your memory haunts me, I can't break away
You still have my heart on a string
I could take you to Europe and show you the world
But to you, it won't mean a thing
You invite a little love and make me feel alright
You come 'round here to stay all night
You kick me around and put me down
And you really shouldn't do that
Your wonderin' eye, jealous heart
Your cheatin' ways are keepin' us apart
You say you're gonna stay with me
But I can see, it's just infatuation
That's No Way To Love Someone
J. Farnham, S. McNally, J. Nicholls and R. Leigh
Please Don't Ask Me
G. GoblePlease don't ask me, what am I thinkin'?
It's about you
And please don't ask me, I never can see you
What can I do?
My first impulse is to run to your side
My heart's not free, and so I must hide
Please don't ask me
What I'm gonna say-ay to you?
I toss and turn, can't sleep at night
It's worryin' me
I go to bed, turn out the light
But your face I see
It only hurts the more I pretend
That we could ever be more than friends
Please don't ask me
Why I'm so in love with you
You could easily make me happy
That I know...
But I try my best to never tell you so, oh-oh-oh
I will sing to you my-y-y love songs
And pretend
But I'll keep the secret right down to the end
Please don't ask me why I'm not talkin'
I just can't explain
And please don't ask me, why I go walkin'
Out in the-e rain
I could not live the lie it would take
To have you near, would be a mistake
Please don't ask me
Why I'm so in love with you
No - please don't ask me
Playing To Win
G. Goble, J. Farnham, D. Hirschfelder, S. Housden, S. Prestwich and S. ProfferIf you want me, come and get me
You don't have a chance if you don't move now
I'm not waitin' any longer
You know that I'm playin' to win this time
When you make your move, I won't hesitate
If it takes you long, it could be too late
This time I'm playin' to win
Come on, come and see
Don't wait around for another chance
Make your mind up, make your bet
'Cause I'm playin' to win this time
When you make your move, I won't hesitate
If it takes you long, it could be too late
This time I'm playin' to win
Why must I sit here, on my own
I was only an emotional man
I've got what I wanted for me
I didn't see that you'd never believe me
I was fool
This time I'm playin' to win, yeah-yeah
If you want me, come and get me
You won't have a chance if you don't move now
I'm not waitin' any longer
Know that I'm playin' to win this time
When you make your move, I won't hesitate
If it takes you long, it could be too late
This time I'm playin' to win
When you make your move, I won't hesitate
If it takes you long, it'll be too la-ate
This time I'm playin' to win
This time I'm playin' to win
This time I'm playin' to win
You know that I've made up my mind
This time I'm playin' to win...
Justice For One
J. Farnham and S. Shifrin
When The War Is Over
S. PrestwichWhen the war is over got to get away-ay
Pack my bag to no place in no time, no day-ay
You and I, we used each other's shoulder
Still so young but somehow so much older
How can I go home and not get blown away
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
When the war is over got to start again
Try to hold a trace of what it was back the-en
You and I, we sent each other stories
Just a page, I'm lost in all its glories
How can I go home and not get blown away..
You and I had our sights set on something
Hope this doesn't mean our days are numbered
I got plans for more than a wanted ma-a-a-an
All around this chaos and madness
Can't help feelin' nothing more than sadness
Only choice, to face it the best I ca-a-an
When the war is over got to start again
Try to hold a trace of what it was back the-e-en
You and I, we sent each other stories
Just a page, I'm lost in all its glories
How can I go home and not get blown away-ay-ay
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
And not get blown right away
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
Don't steal my heart
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
Nobody gonna steal my heart
Ain't nobody gonna steal this heart away-ay-ay
And I Love Her
J. Lennon and P. McCartneyI give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her
She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
