Flew in from Miami Beach Boac
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 USSR
You don't know how lucky you are - boy
Back in the USSR.
Been away so long I hardly knew the place.
Gee it's good to be back home.
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case.
Honey,disconnect the phone
I'm back in the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are - boy
Back in the USSR.
Well the ukraine girls really knock me out.
They leave the west behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout.
That georgia's always on my mind.
I'm back in the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are - boy
Back in the USSR.
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 USSR
You don't know how lucky you are - boy
Back in the USSR.
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
Look around round round
Look around.
Dear Prudence,let me see you smile.
Dear Prudence like a little child.
The clouds will be daisy chain.
So let me see you smile again.
Dear Prudence,won't you let me see you smile.
I told you about strawberry fields
You know the place where nothing is real.
Well here's another place you can go
Where everything flows.
Looking through the bent backed tulips.
To see how the other half live
Looking through the glass onion.
I told you about 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
Looking through a glass onion.
I told you about 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.
Desmond has a barrow in a market place
Molly is a singer in a band
Desmond sais to Molly: "Girl I like your face"
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand:
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to a jeweller stores
Buys a twenty karat golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
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
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
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
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
Oblady oblada life goes on bra
Lala how the life goes on
And if you want some fun - take oblady oblada.
Honey Pie, Honey Pie
Honey Pie, Honey Pie
Honey Pie, Honey Pie
Honey Pie, Honey Pie
6. The continuing story of 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 alwais 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"
Deep in the jungle where the mighty tiger lies
Bill and his elephant were 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"
The children asked him if to kill was not a sin
Not when he looked so fierce, his mother 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''
7. 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 every 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
I look at you all...
Still my guitar gently weeps
8. Happiness is a warm gup
She's not a girl
Who misses much
Do do do do do do do
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 soar impression of his wife
Which he hate
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
Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun
When I hold you in my arms
And I feel
My finger on your trigger
I know nobody can do me no harm
Because happiness is a warm gun
Yes it is
Martha my dear,though I spent 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 head 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 haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and 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 on you
But it's not 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 everything 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 git
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 you 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
Now somewhere in the Black Mountain hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon.
And one day his woman ran off with another guy.
Hit young Rocky in the eye Rocky didn't like that.
He said: "I'm gonna get that boy."
So one day he walked into the town
Booked himself a room
In the local saloon.
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 Lill
But everyone knew her as Nancy.
Now she and her man
Who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoe down.
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 scrath
And I'll be better, I'll be better
Doc,as soon as I am able"
Now Rocky Racoon
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.
15. Why don't we do it in the road
why don't we do it in the road
No one will be watching us.
Why don't we do it in the road
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
You know I will
I will
half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you, Julia
Julia, Julia, oceanchild, 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 floating 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 of love, Julia.
Hum hum hum hum ... Calls me
So I sing a song of love for Julia,
Julia, Julia.

Yes I'm lonely wanna die
Yes I'm lonely wanna die.
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl,you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl,you know the reason why.
My mother was of the sky
My father was of the earth
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth.
I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh 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
Ooh girl,you know the reason why.
Black cloud crosses 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
Ooh girl,you know the reason why.
Born a poor young country boy -
Mother nature's son.
All day long I'm sitting singing songs
for everyone
Sit beside a mountain stream -
See her waters rise.
Listen to the pretty sound of music
as she flies.
Find me in my field of grass -
Mother nature's son
Swaying daisies sing a lazy song
beneath the sun
21. Everybody's got something to hide...
Come on come on come on come on

Come on take it easy
Come on take it easy
Take it easy take it easy
Everybody's got something to hide
Except for me and my monkey

Sexy Sadie she's the latest
And the greatest
Of them all
She made a fool of everyone -

However big you think you are -
Sexy Sadie
when I get to the bottom

Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
Till I get to the bottom and I'll see you again
Do you, don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you
Tell me tell me tell me come on tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Helter Skelter Helter Skelter

Will you, won't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer

You say you want a revolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's going to be all right,all right,all right
You say you got a real solution
Well you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well you know we're doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's going to be all right,all right,all right
You say you'll change a constitution
Well you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's an institution
Well you know
You'll better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's going to be all right,all right,all right
she was a working girl North of England way.
Now she's hit a big time in the USA
And if she could only hear me this is what I'd say:
"Honey Pie you are making me crazy
I'm in love but I'm lazy
So won't you please come home
Oh Honey Pie,my position is tragic
Come and show me the magic
Of your Hollywood song
You became a legend of the silver screen
And now the thought of meeting you
Makes me weak in the knee
Oh Honey Pie,you are driving me frantic
Sail across the Atlantic
To be where you belong''.
Will the wind that blue her boat across the sea
Kindly send her sailing back to me
"Honey Pie you are making me crazy
I'm in love but I'm lazy
So won't you please come home"
Cry,baby,cry.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
The king of marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen.
The queen was in the parlour
Plaing piano for the children of the king.
Cry,baby,cry.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
The king was in the garden
Picking flowers for a friend who came to play.
The queen was in the playroom
Painting pictures for the children's holiday.
Cry,baby,cry.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
The duchess of kirkcaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea.
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee.
Cry,baby,cry.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
So cry baby cry.
At twelve o'clock a meeting round the table
For a seance in the dark.
With voices out of nowhere
Put on specially by the children for a lark.
Cry,baby,cry.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
So cry,baby,cry cry cry cry baby.
Make your mother sigh.
She's old enough to know better.
Cry,baby,cry cry cry cry
