The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

You can shake an apple off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake, sugar
But you'll never shake me

Gonna run my fingers through your long black hair
Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you
Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good at all
Cause once I catch ya, and the kissin' starts
A team of wild horses couldn't tear us apart
Try to take a tiger from his daddy's side
That's how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you
Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good at all

Try to take a tiger from his daddy's side
That's how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you
One, two, three and I come with the redneck style
'Cause you know I get paid by the Mile, like Avis
I pave this, fast save this, everybody smile and act gracious
See I rob banks, I pull pranks,
Sometimes I eat franks and knishes
Best wishes, I'm vicious but here
I am again like CNN, delivery my friend
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal
Yes we bug a lot and my friends is loud and
I'm more freaky than disco 2000
I scream, I yell, I bark, I bite
I'll hit you with an egg on a hot summer night
I never let the cops get wind of me
And I never, ever, ever say die
I never take myself too seriously
'Cause everybody knows fat birds don't fly
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal

Means with the green, murder on your spleen
Living in a dream do you know what I mean
Goateed indeed, smart like John Steed
I'll steal your girlie and I'll steal your weed
I got so much flavor that I'll always leave you chewin'
I got so many styles you'll be thinking I'm from the U.N.
I broke into the white house and never got caught
And I'd be Neil Armstrong if I was an astronaut
I am always optimistic about human relations
I got more friends than my man Peter Gatien
We're always fun loving, so don't start bugging
If your girlie comes up and starts kiss-kiss-kissing and hugging
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal
Stick 'em up punk, it's the Fun Lovin' Criminal, the criminal

I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don't want no candy
I don't need no toy
I took a STICK and an old coffee can
I bang on that thing 'til I got blisters on my hand because
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (yes I do)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (that's right)
When I get older they think I'm a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher want to dance
And that's why
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (hey, why not?)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (I just wanna bang now)
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (I can bang that sucker)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (listen to this)
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my STICKS and go out to the shed
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss's head
Because
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (bang, bang)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (I could bang that drum)
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (hey, hey)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (but this is why I bang that drum)
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (hey, you want to take a bang at it?)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (hey, hey)
I don't want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day (bang, bang)
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day (I could do this all day)
(We have had this before but I wanted an appropriate word for today)

What's another year? - Johnny Logan

I've been waiting such a long time
Looking out for you
But you're not here
What's another YEAR?
I've been waking such a long time
Reaching out for you
But you aren't near
What's another year?
What's another year
To someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
To someone who's getting used to being alone?
I've been praying such a long time
'Cause that's the only way to hide my fear
What's another year?
What's another year
To someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
To someone who's getting used to being alone?
I've been crying such a long time
With such a lot of pain in every tear
What's another year?
What's another year?
What's another year?

Happy New Year - ABBA

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say
Happy New YEAR
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
This year's crop of kisses
Don't seem as sweet to me
This year's crop just misses
What kisses used to be
This year's new romance
Doesn't seem to have a chance
Even helped by Mr. Moon above
This year's crop of kisses is not for me
For I'm still wearin' last year's love.
When the bells all ring and the horns all blow
And the couples we know are fondly kissing
Will I be with you or will I be among the missing?
Maybe it's much too early in the game
Ah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same
What are you doing New YEAR'S, New YEAR'S eve?
Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night
Welcoming in the New YEAR, New YEAR'S Eve?
Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of the thousand invitations you received
Ah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New YEAR'S, New YEAR'S Eve?
Ah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New YEAR'S, New YEAR'S Eve?
Oh, what are you doing New YEAR'S, New YEAR'S Eve?

Diary entry '62 end of May
It looks as if the nose and chin are definitely here to stay
They're here to stay, they're here to stay
If my lips start smiling and my knees start a-knocking
I'm a failure
You are, you are
And if I seem half-hearted, it's because I'm broken hearted
And I'm a failure
You are, you are, you are (I am)

When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder I can think at all
And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
Give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon CAMERA
I love to take a photograph
So mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
And brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white
Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon CAMERA
I love to take a photograph
So mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Leave your boy so far from home
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome, mm
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Okay
I've seen your picture
Your name in lights above it
This is your big debut
It's like a dream come true
So won't you smile for the CAMERA
I know they're gonna love it, Peg
I like your picture
I keep it with your letter
Done up in blueprint blue
It sure looks good on you
And when you smile for the CAMERA
I know I'll love you better
Peg
It will come back to you
Peg
It will come back to you
Then the shutter falls
You see it all in 3-D
It's your favorite foreign movie
I like your picture

"Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate here in my bag"
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies
And walked off to look for America
"Kathy", I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
"Michigan seems like a dream to me now"
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I've gone to look for America
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said "Be careful, his bowtie is really a CAMERA"
"Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat"
"We smoked the last one an hour ago"
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
"Kathy, I'm lost", I said, though I knew she was sleeping
I'm empty and aching and I don't know why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America

Ring them bells - Liza Minnelli
only registered users can see external links
About a year ago, I heard this truly terrific, absolutely true story
And it just so happens that I told a couple of friends of mine
This truly terrific, absolutely true story
And it just so happened that these friends of mine are song writers
And guess what happened? Right, truly terrific, absolutely true song
Gather around, I've got a story to tell
About a Manhattan lady that I know very well
She lives at five Riverside, her name is Shirley Devore
And she traveled 'round the world to meet the guy next door
Well, there was trouble inside apartment 29 E
'Cause Shirley's mother and dad were as UPSET as can be
They said we hate to complain dear and we don't like to grouse
But your nearly 32, you should get out of the house
You gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells
You gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
It's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting a ling
You gotta ring them bells
Well, Shirley was 31, which she was loathe to admit
And she had never been loved, which didn't thrill her a bit
And so she sat and she thought, she thought for hours on end
And said I'll go to Chase, Manhattan where I got me a friend
And so she borrowed a thou' and called TWA
And told her mother and dad that she was up and away
I'm gonna travel the continent, a month, maybe, two
And haul me home a hus' if it's the last thing I do
You gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells
You gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
It's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting a ling
You gotta ring them bells
She met a Londoner first but they did not hit it off
'Cause every time she approached he got a bronchial cough
And so she went to Madrid and met a handsome Senior
But he liked to throw the bull and he was no matador
She also bombed out in Brussells, in Mallorca and Rome
Til' someone said, "Try Dubrovnik, dear before you go home"
'Cause it's the kind of a town where you'll be likely to fall
And all the toni cognoscenti find the Balkans a ball
You gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells
You gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
It's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting a ling
You gotta ring them bells
And so she went to Dubruvnik and the very first day
She met a guy on the beach who took her reason away
Yes, it was love at first sight and quite a beautiful scene
She said, "My name is Shirl Devore", he said, "I'm Norm Saperstein"
She said, "Are you from New York", he said, "That can't be denied
I've got a swell junior three at number five, Riverside"
"Five? Five Riverside Drive in New York, that's where you live?"
"That's, that's where I live, Five? Are you sure?"
As if that wasn't enough for Shirley thought she'd gone deaf
When he told her his apartment there was 29 F
Yes, she was 'E', he was 'F' and they had not even met
Until she traveled the world to Yugoslavia yet
He'd always been right next door and she would never have known
If she hadn't tried Dubrovnik, she might still be alone
Well, there's a moral to learn from little Shirley Devore
Who had to borrow a thou' to find a lover next door
You girls who live in apartments, don't just stare at the wall
Open up the door and hurry out in the hall
And, oh ring them bells, come on, come on, ring them bells
Make 'em sing, you'd better ring the bells
It's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting a ling
You gotta swing them, ring them, swing them, ring them bells

'Cause we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight
If you don't know me by now (if you don't know me)
You will never never never know me (you'll never, never know me)
If you don't know me by now(if you don't, if you don't know me baby)

Crimson flames tied through my ears, rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads using ideas as my maps
"We'll meet on edges, soon, " said I, proud 'neath heated brow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth, "rip down all hate, " I screamed
Lies that life is black and white spoke from my skull, I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers foundationed deep, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now
Girls' faces formed the forward path from phony jealousy
To memorizing politics of ancient history
Flung down by corpse evangelists, unthought of, though somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then. I'm younger than that now
A self-ordained professor's tongue too serious to fool
Spouted out that liberty is just equality in school
"Equality, " I spoke the word as if a wedding vow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy in the instant that I preach
My existence led by confusion boats, mutiny from stern to bow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking I had something to protect
Good and bad, I DEFINE these terms quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now

I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain
Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I DREAD
I think I love you (I think I love you)
This morning I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room
I think I love you (I think I love you)
I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for
I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way
I don't know what I'm up against
I don't know what it's all about
I got so much to think about
Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for
I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
Though it worries me to say I never felt this way
Believe me you really don't have to worry
I only wanna make you happy and if you say "hey go away" I will
But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you
Do you think I have a case let me ask you to your face
Do you think you love me?
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you

Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue
Why must you record my phone calls?
Are you planning a bootleg LP?
Said you've been threatened by gangsters
Now it's you, that's threatening me
Can't fight corruption with con tricks
They use the law to commit crime
And I dread, dread to think what the future will bring
When we're living in gangster time
Don't call me scar face
Can't interrupt while I'm talking
Or they'll confiscate all your guitars
And catch 22 says if I sing the truth
They won't make me an overnight star
Don't offer us legal protection
They use the law to commit crime
I dread to think what the future will bring
When we're living in gangster time
Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue
Dem dread seh
Dem dread seh
Dem dread seh
Dem dread seh
No matter how you bad I man badder than you
No matter how you dread I man dreader than you
No matter how you hard I man harder than you
No matter how you raw
I more-weak heart back way so
A bad man no want go back Into captivity
A bad man no want go back to slavery
Uprising from the claws of the wicked
Two bulls can't reign in one pen
Two lions can't roar in a small den
Two scorpions don't sting at the same spot
Two guns can't fire the same bullet shot so
Move right out now
Move right out now
Move right out now
Move right out now
Two kings don't wear the same crown
Two beauties don't have the same gown on
Tomorrow Is too late to leave town
If you're still here at noon
There'll be one big, big, big showdown so
Uprising, uprising
Uprising, uprising
I give you tlil noon to go
On your way to survival,where
Your heart will beat more fonder
With life
And breath still enters your body
Repeat verse one
If you still coming me nah run
If you still coming, me ah go, drop you
If you still coming me nah run
So better stop running before I, break you
So run and hide before I, find you
Woe betide if I catch up on you
If you still coming I box you down
If you still coming I clart you down
Long time we deh under backraw...
Four hundred years (many, many years)
Slavery days...
Slavery days...
Slavery days...
Oh you've been bought
Oh you've been sold
Oh cast over me
Got strung up for nothing at all
Strange fruit...

My eyes ADORED you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
Carried your books from school
Playin' make believe you're married to me
You were fifth grade, I was sixth when we came to be
Walking home every day over Bonnicut Bridge and Bay
'Til we grew into the me and you
Who went our separate ways
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
Headed for city lights
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame
I worked my fingers to the bone
Made myself a name
Funny, I seem to find
That no matter how the years unwind
Still I reminisce about the girI miss
And the love I left behind
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
All my life I will remember (Though I never laid a hand on you)
How warm and tender we were way back then (My eyes adored you)
Whoa-whoa, baby (Like a million miles away from me)
(You couldn't see how I adored you)
Oh the feeling, sad regrets (So close)
I know I won't ever forget you, my childhood friend (So close and yet so far)
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me
You couldn't see how I adored you
So close, so close and yet so far
My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you
My eyes adored you

She asks me why
I'm just a hairy guy
I'm hairy noon and night
Hell that's a fright
I'm hairy high and low
Don't ask me why
Don't know
It's not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead
Darling
Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming,
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas
A hive for bees
A nest for birds
There ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
Of my...
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!
Oh say can you see
My eyes if you can
Then my hair's too short
Down to here
Down to there
I want hair
Down to where
It stops by itself
They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined
Biblical hair
My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah I ADORE it
Hallelujah Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair

High flying, ADORED!
So young!
The instant queen!
A rich
Beautiful thing!
Of all the talents
A cross between
A fantasy
Of the bedroom
And a saint
You were just a backstreet girl
Hustling and fighting, scratching and biting
High flying, adored!
Did you believe
In your wildest moments, all
This would be yours?
That you'd become
The lady of them all?
Were there stars in your eyes
When you crawled in at night
From the bars, from the sidewalks
From the gutter theatrical
Don't look down!
It's a long, long way to fall
High flying, adored!
What happens now
Where do you go from here?
For someone on top of the world
The view is not
Exactly clear
A shame you did it all
At twenty-six
There are no mysteries now
Nothing can thrill you
No one fulfill you
High flying, adored!
I hope you come
To terms with boredom
So famous so easily
So soon
It's not the wisest thing to be, you won't care if they love you
It's been done before
You'll despair if they hate you
You'll be drained of all energy
All the young who've
Made it
Would agree
"High flying, adored"
That's good to hear
But... unimportant
My story's quite usual
"Local girl"
"Makes good, weds famous man"
I was stuck
In the right place
At the perfect time
Filled a gap
I was lucky!
But one thing I'll say for me
No one else can
Fill it
Like I can

Well, come on all of you, big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Vietnam
So put down your books and pick up a gun
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun
And it's one, two, three
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn
Next stop is Vietnam
And it's five, six, seven
Open up the pearly gates
Well there ain't no time to wonder why
Whoopee! we're all gonna die
Well, come on generals, let's move fast
Your big chance has come at last
Now you can go out and get those reds
'Cause the only good commie is the one that's dead
And you know that peace can only be won
When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come
And it's one, two, three
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn
Next stop is Vietnam
And it's five, six, seven
Open up the pearly gates
Well there ain't no time to wonder why
Whoopee! we're all gonna die
Come on Wall Street, don't be slow
Why man, this is war au-go-go
There's plenty good money to be made
By supplying the Army with the tools of its trade
But just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb
They drop it on the Viet Cong
And it's one, two, three
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn
Next stop is Vietnam
And it's five, six, seven
Open up the pearly gates
Well there ain't no time to wonder why
Whoopee! we're all gonna die
Come on mothers throughout the land
Pack your boys off to Vietnam
Come on fathers, and don't hesitate
To send your sons off before it's too late
And you can be the first ones in your block
To have your boy come home in a BOX
And it's one, two, three
What are we fighting for?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn
Next stop is Vietnam
And it's five, six, seven
Open up the pearly gates
Well there ain't no time to wonder why
Whoopee! we're all gonna die
Mama's got a squeeze BOX
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze BOX

Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in
And out and in and out and in and out
She's playing all night

Come on and tease me like you do

In a little cabaret
In a south Texas border town
Sat a boy and his guitar
And the people came from all around
And all the girls
From there to Austin
Were slippin' away from home
And puttin' jewelry and hopped to take the trip
To go and listen
To the little dark-haired boy who played the
Tennessee flat top BOX
And he would play
Well, he couldn't ride or wrangle
And he never cared to make it down
But give him his guitar
And he'd be happy all the time
And all the girls
From nine to ninety
Were snappin' fingers, tappin' toes
And beggin' him don't stop
And hypnotized
And fascinated
By the little dark-haired boy who played the
Tennessee flat top box
And he would play
Then one day he was gone
And no one ever saw him 'round
He vanished like the breeze
They forgot him in the little town
But all the girls
Still dreamed about him
And hung around
The cabaret until the doors were locked
And then one day
On the hit parade
Was the little dark-haired boy who played the
Tennessee flat top box
And he would play
Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string, in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure
That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go
So he started rockin', ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin', someday gonna make it to the top
And be a juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke BOX hero
He took one guitar (juke BOX hero, stars in his eyes)
Juke BOX hero, (stars in his eyes) he'll come alive tonight
In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar, made his whole life change
Now he needs to keep on rockin', he just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin', that boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke BOX hero, stars in his eyes
With that one guitar (stars in his eyes)
He'll come alive, come alive tonight, woah
Yeah, he's gotta keep on rockin', just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin', that boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
(Just one guitar) juke BOX hero, got stars in his eyes
How he's just a juke BOX hero, aah aah aah
Juke BOX (stars) hero, (stars, stars) juke BOX hero, (stars, stars)
He's got stars in his eyes, stars in his eyes

Stop, don't say you'll put me down
Love, don't go away
Drop my feet back on the ground
Open your arms, let me stay
Hold me like you know you should
Don't leave me on the shelf
Like a doll you throw away
So sad and lonely all by myself
I'm just your Jack-in-the-BOX
You know whenever love knocks
I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring
A toy you start when it stops
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box
Because for your love, I'd do anything
Who just keeps my heart around?
Loves to pull the strings?
You, and when it's upside down
Look at the way that it swings
I can't help the way I feel
It's you and no one else
Comes the tune, but all too soon
I'm just a doll put back on the shelf
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box
You know whenever love knocks
I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring
A toy you start when it stops
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box
Because for your love, I'd do anything
Lalalala lalala
Lalalala lalala
Lalala lalalala lalala
Lalalala lalala
Lalalala lalala
Lalala lalalala lalala
Hey, hear what I say
You'll find someday that I walked away from you
So say I've got to stay
And from today it's love that's gonna break through
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box
You know whenever love knocks
I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring
A toy you start when it stops
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box
Because for your love, I'd do anything

[Verse 1]
Your neighbours were screaming
I don't have a key for downstairs
So I punched all the buzzers
Hoping you wouldn't be there
And now my head's hurting
You say I always get my own way
But you were in the shower when I got there
And I'd have wanted to stay
But I got nothing to say
[Pre-Chorus]
You were so beautiful before today
And then I heard what you say
Man, that was ugly
[Chorus]
The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Frank's in there and I don't care
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Just take it, take the box
Take the box
[Verse 2]
I came home this evening
And nothing felt like how it should be
I feel like writing you a letter
But that's not me, you know me
Feel so fucking angry, don't wanna be reminded of you
But when I left my shit in your kitchen
I said goodbye to your bedroom
It smelled of you
[Pre-Chorus]
Mister-false-pretence, you don't make sense
I just don't know you
But you make me cry, where's my kiss goodbye?
I think I love you
[Chorus]
The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Frank's in there, I don't care
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Now take it, take the box
Just take it, take it
Take the box
And now just take the box
Take the box
One to another
Sister and a brother
And changing the way that you feel
Pleased to meet you
Hope I never see you
I'll be at ease watchin' you sleep watchin' you smile
Love I adore you
Always lookin' for you
And I'll be there whenever you need me
Be my Spiderwoman I'll be your Spiderman
I hear our day is comin'
Grows sweeter every year
Tomorrow could be too easy
And today's goin' to be too near
Justice for believers and love can keep the faith
I don't need you I can't buy you I can't hurt you
One to another
Peace to my brother
Always giving me his thing for free
Sad to knock you
It's good to rock you
And I'll do it the best that I can
I hear our day is coming
Gets sweeter every year
Tomorrow's gonna be too easy
And today's gonna be too near
Trust is for believers and love can keep the faith
I don't need you I can't buy you I can't hurt you
Stand by my accusations
I'll come clean I don't need no vice
I know you want to keep me waitin'
I think its funny that you might
Love is hard to leave
And it's hard to never have
Can you please crawl out of your window
You can play with all my love
Yeah yeah yeah
Box up all our records
And a head full of ideas
And a hand full of escape routes
They're going to burn you
I know we have had this before but I wanted a festive themed word

On top of old smokey.
On top of old smokey all covered with SNOW
I lost my true lover for courting too slow
For courting's a pleasure and parting's a grief
And a false hearted lover is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you and take all you save
But a false hearted lover will lead you to the grave
And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust
Not one girl in a hundred a poor boy can trust
They'll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than cross lines on a railroad or stars in the skies
So come all your maidens and listen to me
Never place your affections on a green willow tree
For the leaves they will wither and the roots they will die
You'll all be forsaken and never know why.
The sun ain't shinin' in my room
At night
I've been feelin' angry at the moon
Maybe I've been losin' my mind
But the things you hide so deep in your heart
Well I know I can find
I'll go
wherever your love light shows
Through fifteen feet of snow
If that's where I have to go
I look
Into your eyes and felt so alone
Is that you
The lights are on but nobody's home
Maybe I've been losin' my mind
But the things you hide so deep in your heart
Well I know I can find
I'll go
wherever your love light shows
Through fifteen feet of snow
If that's where I have to go
Just to feel your glow
And I'll go
wherever your love light shows
Through fifteen feet of snow
If that's where I have to go
Just to feel your glow
I'll go
Wherever your love light shows
Through fifteen feet of snow
Yeah I'll go
Wherever your love light shows
Through fifteen feet of snow

It never SNOWS in LA
So Santa don't bring me a sleigh
I'll leave a key by our door
'Cause there's no chimney anymore
Remember where you are
You'd better bring your car
'Cause Santa there's no snow in LA
When Christmas comes
It's gonna be
A little strange to me
I used to live up in
The mountains now
I'm by the sea
I wonder if old Santa knows
My family's moved away
I'd feel much better
If I wrote him a letter
Here is what I'd say
It never snows in LA
So Santa don't bring me a sleigh
I'll leave a key by our door
'Cause there's no chimney anymore
Remember where you are
You'd better bring your car
'Cause Santa there's no snow in LA
I'll build a snowman out of sand
And surf each winter day
And try to learn those different games
The Californians play
I know that Santa's very smart
He'd never let me down
I think I'd better write him a letter
And tell him where I can be found
It never snows in LA
So Santa don't bring me a sleigh
I'll leave a key by our door
'Cause there's no chimney anymore
Remember where you are
You'd better bring your car
'Cause Santa there's no snow in LA
It never snows in LA
So Santa don't bring me a sleigh
I'll leave a key by our door
'Cause there's no chimney anymore
Remember where you are
You'd better bring your car
'Cause Santa there's no snow in LA
Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane snow is glistening
Its a beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland...
Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it SNOW, let it SNOW, let it SNOW
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned down low
Let it SNOW, let it SNOW, let it SNOW
When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbyin'
As long as you love me so
Let it SNOW, let it SNOW, let it SNOW
He doesn't care if it's ten below
He's sitting by the fire's cosy glow
He don't care about the cold and the winds that blow
He just says, "Let it snow, let it SNOW, let it SNOW"
Let it SNOW
Oo-wee goes the storm
Why should he worry when he's nice and warm?
His gal by his side and the lights burn low
He just says, "Let it SNOW, let it SNOW"
I don't care!
The weather outside is frightful
But that fire is mhmm, delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it SNOW, let it SNOW, let it SNOW
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I brought lots of corn for popping
The lights are way down low
So let it SNOW, let it SNOW, let it SNOW (let it snow!)
When we finally say goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you'll only hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbyin'
Long as you love me so
Let it SNO, let it SNOW, let it SNOW!

Yeah it was a cool black night
Oh i remember it well
We was ridin'in the box
Lord it be cold as hell
Tryin to get over the hump be

Body could freeze to death
No one ever know
We was headin' west
Just to go south
About this plan well
I had my doubts
Slim said he wanted first stop out in
Spokaloo
Said he knew a pretty little thing
And I think her name was lou
Oh I had a bad feelin'
Well we rolled into town
We was walkin' down the street
Oh I knew somethin' wrong I could
Feel the heat
Up come the police said
"Welcome to out town"
Hop in the back seat boys
Gon' show you 'round
Never ever go west
When you know you should be headin' south
Never ever whisper
When you know it's time to shout
Fourteen days in the spokane city jail
When I got out, have mercy I was ready to sail
Captain said,"you learned your lesson boy?"
Have no doubt
Never ever go west
When you know you should be headin'
Never ever go west
When you know you should be headin'south
Never ever whisper
When you know it's time to shout
Never ever go west
When you know you should be headin'south

I'm driving home for CHRISTMAS
Oh, I can't wait to see those faces
I'm driving home for Christmas, yea
Well I'm moving down that line
And it's been so long
But I will be there
I sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas
It's gonna take some time
But I'll get there
Top to toe in tailbacks
Oh, I got red lights on the run
But soon there'll be a freeway yeah
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
And feel you near me
Driving in my car
I'm driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I take a look at the driver next to me
He's just the same
Just the same
Top to toe in tailbacks
Oh, I got red lights all around, uh
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
Oh and feel you near me
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I take a look at the driver next to me
He's just the same
He's driving home, driving home
Driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas
I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
I promise you
I'll be home for CHRISTMAS
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
CHRISTMAS eve will find you
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for CHRISTMAS
If only in my dreams
I'll be home for CHRISTMAS
You can count on me
Please have some snow and mistletoe
And presents by the tree
CHRISTMAS eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for CHRISTMAS
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams

Till I had you I didn't know
That I was missing out
Had to grow up and see the world
Through different shades of doubt
Give me one more chance to dream again
One more chance to feel again
Through your young heart
If only for one day help me try
I wanna see CHRISTMAS through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again, thinking the world was mine
I wanna see Christmas, Christmas through your eyes
I see the rain, you see the rainbow
Hiding in the clouds
Never afraid to let your love show
Won't you show me how
Wanna learn how to believe again
Find the innocence in me again
Through your young heart
Help me find a way, help me try
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again thinking the world was kind
I wanna see Christmas, Christmas through your eyes
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again thinking the world was mine
I wanna see Christmas, Christmas through your eyes
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
I wanna see
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
I wanna see
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
I wanna see Christmas
I wanna see Christmas through your eyes
It's CHRISTMAS time, there's no need to be afraid
At CHRISTMAS time, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
At CHRISTMAS time it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears
And the CHRISTMAS bells that ring
There are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this CHRISTMAS time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's CHRISTMAS time at all?
Here's to you
Raise a glass for everyone
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
If the table was turned would you survive
Here's to them
Underneath that burning sun
You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
Give a little help to the helpless
Do they know it's CHRISTMAS time at all?
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know it's CHRISTMAS time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's CHRISTMAS time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's CHRISTMAS time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's CHRISTMAS time again
Feed the world
Feed the world

Kids, kids, CHRISTMAS is for kids
Look around and you will see
Kids from one to 93
Laughin', lovin' life and being kids
Kids, kids, Christmas is for kids
Kids like you and little brother
Aunts and uncles, dad and mother
Grandma, grandpa and all the other kids
Daddy runs the electric train
While all the children wait in vain
To take their turn and play an engineer
And grandpa pinches grandmas cheek
As all your family sneaks a peak
And suddenly their wrinkles disappear
Take a look at Betty Joe
She's underneath the mistletoe
Pretending that she doesn't know it's there
And in the front yard, uncle Mike
Just fell of brothers brand new bike
There's Christmas cheer and laughter everywhere
Kids, kids, yes, Christmas is for kids
Christmas time is here again
And now is when the fun begins
This time of year, we all turn into kids
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Kids
Every street corner you'll hear, you can hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's CHRISTMAS time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be CHRISTMAS day
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of CHRISTMAS
Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear, you can hear
Silver bells, silver bells, silver bells, silver bells
It's CHRISTMAS time in the city
Ring-a-ling, ring-a-ling, hear them sing, hear them sing
Soon it will be CHRISTMAS day
Strings of streetlights even stop lights blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch, this is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you'll hear, you can hear
Silver bells, the corner Santa Claus, silver bells, is busy now because
It's CHRISTMAS time in the city
Ring-a-ling, you'll hear it in the air, hear them ring, you'll hear it everywhere
Soon it will be CHRISTMAS day
Very soon it will be CHRISTMAS day
Have yourself a merry little Christmas let your heart be light from now on our troubles will be out of sight.

I crept up on my baby, I laid down on my town
I found a shrinking violet, I crushed it into the ground
I felt the heart of forever, I held it over my head
I said, "Fuck you on Christmas" and then they put me to bed
And I'm never gonna tell you why
I got my face in the furnace, I got my snake in a sleeve
God's drowned in a bowl of cereal, I have to ask you to leave
Roll up your expectations and feed them into my sleep
I'll ask the master cylinder what kind of cookies he eats
And I'm never gonna tell you why
Sometimes my soul just moves so slow
Like a dream of a diesel heart that just won't go, yeah
There's a light that used to shine, I breathe it all the time
Now I wait on the edge of Mars but it just don't show, yeah
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
So long here, baby
So long here, baby
So long here, baby
So long here, baby, yea
Baby, yea
Baby, yea
Baby, yea
Baby, yea
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
I'll see you around, baby
So long here, baby
(Happy Christmas, Kyoko
Happy Christmas, Julian)
So this is Christmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you had fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas (War is over)
For weak and for strong (If you want it)
For rich and the poor ones (War is over)
The road is so long (Now)
And so happy Christmas (War is over)
For black and for white (If you want it)
For yellow and red ones (War is over)
Let's stop all the fight (Now)
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas (War is over)
And what have we done? (If you want it)
Another year over (War is over)
And a new one just begun (Now)
And so happy Christmas (War is over)
We hope you had fun (If you want it)
The near and the dear ones (War is over)
The old and the young (Now)
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over, if you want it
War is over, now
Happy Christmas
Happy Christmas, Christmas
Happy Christmas, Christmas
Intro: Mark Hoyle & Ed Sheeran]
Build a fire and gather 'round the tree
Come and sing and dance to sausage rolls with me
Here we go, we are back
Trying to make history for charity
And may I introduce to you
Ed Sheeran and Sir Elton John
No pressure
[Verse 1: Mark Hoyle, Ed Sheeran, Roxanne Hoyle, (All)]
Let's have a party, it's CHRISTMAS Day
Your mum's cooking turkey but been moanin' since yesterday
The presents are open and the bin bags are put away
Just until Boxing Day
(Let's dance, Merry CHRISTMAS)
[Verse 2: Elton John, Roxanne Hoyle with Mark Hoyle, All]
Get to the kitchen for sausage rolls
Kids, drop your toys and dance along to rock and roll
Everyone's here, and now the dog's got the trifle bowl
This is pure family goals
Let's sing, Merry CHRISTMAS (Come on!)
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran & Mark Hoyle, Mark Hoyle & Roxanne Hoyle, All]
The sausage rolls are on (Yes, mate)
And our family are back, joined as one
Ooh, we're havin' so much fun
While we're here, can we all spare a thought for the kids who have none?
Sausage rolls for everyone
(Aye, sausage rolls, come on!)
[Verse 3: Ed Sheeran, Elton John, LadBaby, (All)]
Wishin' that CHRISTMAS was here to stay
The last one was lovely, so I'm glad that it's come again
It won't be the same this year since loved ones have passed away
We miss them every day
(Let's pray, Merry CHRISTMAS)
[Verse 4: Roxanne Hoyle, Mark Hoyle, Ed Sheeran]
Comin' together for something good
We're singing in PJs, but we're helpin' the neighbourhood
We came back with sausage rolls just like you knew we would
And doesn't my mate look good?!
Oh yeah, Merry CHRISTMAS
[Bridge: Mark Hoyle, Ed Sheeran & All]
I feel my hunger comes
Every time the oven turns on
Filled up with so much love
Every pound for this song goes to helpin' the people along
Sausage rolls for everyone (Yes, mate)
[Bridge: All]
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Outro: All]
It's CHRISTMAS time, sausage rolls and wine
We'll have a good night and a Merry CHRISTMAS
It's CHRISTMAS time, sausage rolls and wine
We'll have a good night and a Merry CHRISTMAS
It's CHRISTMAS time, sausage rolls and wine
We'll have a good night and a Merry CHRISTMAS
It's CHRISTMAS time, sausage rolls and wine
We'll have a good night and a Merry CHRISTMAS time
(It's CHRISTMAS)
