Well The Night Was Beautiful And Mellow, Mellow

And The Light Of The Night Fell On Me, Fell On Me

You Said Right

Made Me A Happy Fellow, Fellow

And The Light Of The Night Fell On Me

I Never Will Forget The Night

I Held You Close, I Held You Tight

Oh Darling, Don't You Know

The Way You Made My Senses Reel?

I Fell In Love And Now I Feel

Like I Will Never Go

Oh Little Darling Don't You Know

That The Night Was Marvelous And Yellow, Yellow

And The Light Of The Night Fell On Me

And The Light Of The Night Fell On Me

I Never Will Forget The Way

You Taught Me How To Swing And Sway

Oh Darling Don't You Know

That Ever Since That Special Day

My Mind Can Only Contemplate

The Magic That You Show

Oh Little Darling Don't You Know

That The Night Is Beautiful And Yellow, Yellow

And The Light Of The Night Fell On Me

Old intuition -- on your dock we're fishin'

Come on now, give us a grade

A for effort, and a B for delivery

C for devotion when the world starts encroaching on your plans

Where is the savoir, where is the savoir -- he's not here right now

Where is the savoir, where is the savoir-faire?

Embassy row -- the fumes they lay low

On lanes that are wide -- where the limousines glide

On the wrought-iron gates and the bone china plates

And don't forget your manners where the anthems play

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take a crown

Maids, they are frisked -- and asses are kissed

I needed a visa -- I bought off a geezer

Political favors could make you a savior

In an open corner where the news is late

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

In a netherworld of foreign feeds

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take a crown, I'm gonna take a crown

I need to get born, I need to get dead

I'm sick of the forms, I'm sick of being misread

By men in dashikis and their leftist weeklies

Colonized wrath -- their shining new path

The converted castle of moorish design

If you want to stay the weekend, well, we wouldn't mind

The plots they are hatching, the surface is scratching

In an open corner where the news is late

In a netherland of foreign beads

In a netherland of foreign beads

In a netherland of foreign beads

I'm gonna take you down, I'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown

I'm gonna take the crown, I'm gonna take the crown

Hour after hour in an ivory tower

A thousand and nothings to do

Spending the day in a colourful way

Blue upon blue upon blue

Psychadelicatessen

Fricasse chorus girls thigh

Toffee and mackeral gateau

Pineapple pie in the sky

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll away

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll away

Like ice in a drink

invisible ink

or dreams in the cold light of day

The children of rock 'n roll

never grow old

They just fade away

Drifting along on a cotton wool cloud

dreaming of drum majorettes

Swastika nightingales croon tongue in cheek

an elephant never forgets

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll away

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll

See how the good times roll away

candy told me nothing really matters anymore

when I ask her what she means, she says I oughtta know

candy says she's made arrangements

for me in the sand

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she wonders why we try

I couldn't think of what to say

I hadn't already replied

candy says I'd like it where she is

she says it's an opportunity I don't want to miss

candy says she's made arrangements

for me in the sand

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy asked me if she died

if I could go on

of course I said I couldn't

and of course we knew that's wrong

but candy, I said, candy no you can't do that to me

because you love me way too much

for you to ever leave

candy says she's made arrangements

for me in the sand

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she's made arrangements

for me in the sand

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she wants me with her

down in candyland

candy says she wants me with her

Working up a fever in a one-horse town

was a Jockey by the name of Joe

He didn't have a lot of you might call luck

but he had a lot of get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

Tall in the saddle in a one-horse town

Joey knew someday he'd hit the road

He traded with a dealer for a pick-up truck

And went looking for a medium load

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

Cruising down the highway doing sixty-five

in the middle of the double white line

His foot down on the gas and his head in the clouds

He didn't see the one-way sign

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

Get up and go

Get up and go

Get up and go back home

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 living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I'm living in hope

Living in hope

Walkin 'round the city

feeling all alone

nobody told me

the streets are paved with stone

But I'm living in hope

Yes, I'm living in hope

I'm living in hope

I'm living in hope

Can't find my feet or a friendly face

In this god foresaken town

Nobody stops to lend a hand

unless they want to put you down

Got no woman

or a steady job

Feeling like a cowboy

and looking like a slob

But I'm living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I'm living in hope

I'm living in hope

Nothing in my pocket

Nowhere to go

Looking for a handout

But no one wants to know

But I'm living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I'm living in hope

Living in hope

I'm living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I'm living in hope

Living in hope

Death-Cab For Cutie (Stanshall/Innes)

That night Cutie called a cab, uh huh huh

(baby don't do it)

She left her East Side room so drab uh huh huh

(baby don't do it)

She went out on the town

Knowin' it would make her lover frown

(Death-cab for Cutie)

(Death-cab for Cutie)

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

The cab was racin' through the night, mm mm mm

(baby don't do it)

His eyes in the mirror, keepin' Cutie in sight, uh huh huh

(baby don't do it)

When he saw Cutie, it gave him a thrill

Don't you know, baby curves can kill

(Death-cab for Cutie)

(Death-cab for Cutie)

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

Cutie, don't you play with fate

Don't leave your lover alone

If you go out on this date

His heart will turn to stone

Bad girl, Cutie, what have you done, uh huh huh

(baby don't do it)

Slippin' slidin' down-a Highway 31, mm mm mm

(baby don't do it)

The traffic lights changed from green to red

They tried to stop but they both wound up dead

(Death-cab for Cutie)

(Death-cab for Cutie)

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

Someone's gonna make you pay your fare

Doubleback Alley

People were proud in Doubleback Alley

Neighbors were loud, but ever so pally

People would shout, joking about

The smoke and the soot, Mother would put

The milk bottles out

We had a good time in Doubleback Alley

With fences to climb, and Father O'Malley

To clip your ear, and steer you clear

Of the funny man in the ice cream van

Who talked so queer

Doubleback Alley takes me back and in my mind I see

Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory

Plenty to do in Doubleback Alley

Play peek-a-boo with Saccharine Sally

Bouncing a ball against a wall

Showing her drawers, "You come indoors!"

Her dad would call

(Aaaaaah)

(La la la laaaaaa)

(Laaaaaa)

(La la la laaaaaa)

Doubleback Alley takes me back

And in my mind I see

Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory

Stinking of gin in Doubleback Alley

Grinning a grin in Doubleback Alley

Kick a dustbin, bingo to win

Windows to break, Mother would take

The milk bottles in

Doubleback Alley takes me back

And in my mind I see

Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory

Doubleback Alley takes me back

And in my mind I see

Happy, smiling faces if I flog my memory

Doubleback Alley
