Lyrical Response

[WhoTom]

Hey baby, it’s a quarter to eight.
I feel I’m in the mood.
Hey baby, the hour is late.
I feel I’ve got to move.

[PastaJoe]

Hey baby, they're playing our song
The one we used to hear when
We used to get along
Hey baby, they're playing our song
Let's get back together
That's where we belong

[muppy]

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well, a few of the verses, well, they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

[WhoTom]

Think this through with me

Let me know your mind
Wo-oh, what I want to know

Is, are you kind?

 

[muppy]

I don't need a whole lots of money
I don't need a big fine car
I got everything that a man could want
I got more than I could ask for

And I don't have to run around
I don't have to stay out all night
'Cause I got me a sweet, a sweet loving woman
And she know just how to treat me right

But my baby, she's alright
Oh, my baby's clean out of sight
Don't you know that she's-

She's some kind of wonderful?
She's some kind of wonderful (yes, she is, she is)
She's some kind of wonderful (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Joe Ferguson forever]

'S wonderful
'S marvelous
You should care for me
'S awfully nice

'S paradise
'S what I love to see
You've made my life so glamorous
You can't blame me for feeling amorous

Oh! 'S wonderful, marvelous
That you should care for me

Girl, we've been meant for this
Since we were born
No problems now (the coast is clear)
It's just the calm before the storm

 

This must be just like livin' in paradise
And I don't want to go home

[SinceThe70s]

In secrecy they've infiltrated
All of our strongholds
Controlling more... year after year
So we've let this happen all along
Believing what's been said
Our leaders cry... we have no one to fear

 

We watch the sun rise, and hope
We watch the sun rise, and hope
That it won't be our last
Before the storm
Before the storm
Before the storm

[WhoTom]

Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise
Running in the shadows, damn your love, damn your lies

[Bill from NYC]

If you can just get your mind together
Then come on across to me
We'll hold hands and then we'll watch the sunrise
From the bottom of the sea

 

But first, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have

[SinceThe70s]

I remember when rock was young
Me and Susie had so much fun
Holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own

[Bills4everNY]

I smoked my first cigarette at ten

And for girls, I had a bad yen

And I had quite a ball

When I was young

[Bill from NYC]

You never care for secrets I confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all ya had to give

 

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

[PastaJoe]

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', ("This is my message to you-ou-ou:")

Singin': "Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right."
Singin': "Don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"

[WhoTom]

There once was a note
Pure and easy
Playin' so free

Like a breath rippling by

[muppy]

… Oh, thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more

[Joe Ferguson forever]

And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait
Some say it's better, but I say it ain't
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
The sinners are much more fun

You know that only the good die young, oh, baby
I tell ya only the good die young
Only the good die young

Said your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation
Aw, she never cared for me
But did she ever say a prayer for me?
Oh-whoa-whoa

[WhoTom]

He’s old enough to know what’s right
But young enough not to choose it

[PastaJoe]

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power, but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad man

[muppy]

You and me, always forever
We could stay alone together
Heard you say things could be better
Darling, don't get a wandering eye
