Y’s Lyrics Emporium IV: Fab Four (Hi, Leigh!!!)

[AbsintheFather]

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you

Laugh at that cowgirl as she's walking out your door
I know a way to make you smile
Just let me whisper things you've never heard before
Just let me touch you, baby
Just let me touch you for a while

 

[beachbaby179]

Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

Hey there cutes, put on your dancin' boots and come dance with me.
Come dance with me, what an evening for some Terpsichore
Pretty face, I know a swingin' place, come on dance with me
Romance with me on a crowded floor

And while the rhythm swings
What lovely things I'll be sayin'
'Cause what is dancing?
Making love set to music, playin'.

 

[Dashing_Sir]

You're making your mark in society
Using all the tricks that you used on me
All them high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin', girl, are causing public scenes
Not your steppin' stone
Not your steppin' stone

I think I love you! This is probably the best song by The Monkees!

 

[beachbaby179]

I Think I Love You was the Partridge Family.

[StacyLeigh]

(I think this thread has gone off track….let’s regroup )

Hey there cutes, put on your dancin' boots and come dance with me.
Come dance with me, what an evening for some Terpsichore
Pretty face, I know a swingin' place, come on dance with me
Romance with me on a crowded floor

And while the rhythm swings
What lovely things I'll be sayin'
'Cause what is dancing?
Making love set to music, playin'.

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

 

[AmberLGreen]

Why am I obsessing
About the things I can't control?
Why am I seeking approval
From people I don't even know?
In these crazy times I hope to find
Something I can cling on to
'Cause I need some substance in my life
Something real, something that feels true
You better believe for you I've cried (I've cried, I've cried)
High tides (high tides, high tides)
'Cause I want you so bad
But you can't fight fire with fire (ahh)
Oh, so I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
Oh, I just want to love you (so we can love)
Love you for free (each other for free)
Everybody wants something from me
You just want me

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

You go to my head
With a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand July's
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes

And I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance
In this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head.

 

[AbsintheFather]

So many dragons lurking out in the fog
So many crazy people mumblin' monologues
It's not the tales of Stephen King that I've read
I need protection from the things in my head

Vampires, mummies and the holy ghost
These are the things that terrify me the most
No aliens, psychopaths or MTV hosts
Scares me like vampires, mummies and the holy ghost

 

[beachbaby179]

Now look at them yo-yos, that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free
Now that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya, them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We got to install microwave ovens, custom kitchen deliveries
We got to move these refrigerators, we got to move these color TVs

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

I'm not the guy who cared about love
And I'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
I never cared much
Oh, look at me now!

 

[AmberLGreen]

With one more look at you
I'd learn to change the stars
And change our fortunes too
I'd have the constellations paint your portrait too
So all the world might share this wonderful sight

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

Sometimes this crazy world can make us all feel bad.
I sit and watch the news and just get mad.
We need to stop and smell the roses in the ground.
So get out today, you spread a little love around

Talk to a neighbor, volunteer a favor
Help out a stranger when his car's broke down
Give your wife a kissin', when your kids talk, listen
It makes a lovely sound, spread a little love around.

 

[AbsintheFather]

Well, I married me a wife, she's been trouble all my life
Run me out in the cold rain and snow, rain and snow
Run me out in the cold rain and snow

Well, she went up to her room where she sang her faithful tune
And I ain't goin' be treated this way, this ol' way
And I ain't goin' be treated this way

She's coming down the stairs, combin' back her yellow hair
Well I'm goin' where those chilly winds don't blow, winds don't blow
I'm goin' where those chilly winds don't blow

 

[AmberLGreen]

I've got a hot chilly feeling I don't understand
I've got to run through this minute like a hurricane
I've got to tighten my wire from the sense to the soul
I find my back to the wall when it's time to go
I've got to know is that your heartbeat?
Paint me right
Can you feel the heat in me tonight?
Oh, I, I'm the pearl
Paint your love all over my world

 

[Mo_Bandy]

Pandy Fackler was a working girl
Living alone in another world
Of picket fences and a white facade
Sucking dicks under the Promenade
She was almost in a coma from doing the Bossa Nova
And the Funky Cold Medina, man, I wish you coulda seen her

 

[AmberLGreen]

Who's that gigolo on the street?
With his hands in his pockets and his crocodile feet
Hanging off the curb, looking all disturbed
At the boys from home, they all came running
They were making noise, manhandling toys
That's the girls on the block with the nasty girls
Wearing padded bras, sucking beers through straws
Dropping down their drawers, where did you get yours?

 

[Mo_Bandy]

Empty bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty
I saw her sitting at the bar, well you know how some girls are
Always making eyes, well she wasn't making eyes
So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, Hi there
My name's Stewart Ransom Miller, I'm a serial lady-killer
She said, I'm already dead, that's exactly what she said

 

[AbsintheFather]

Some girls give me money, some girls buy me clothes
Some girls give me jewelry, that I never thought I'd own
Some girls give me diamonds, some girls, heart attacks
Some girls I give all my bread to, I don't ever want it back
Some girls give me jewelry, others buy me clothes
Some girls give me children, I never asked them for
So give me all your money, give me all your gold
I'll buy you a house in Baker Street, and give you half of what I own
Some girls take my money, some girls take my clothes
Some girls get the shirt off my back, and leave me with a lethal dose

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

Give me love
Give me love
Give me peace on earth
Give me light
Give me life
Keep me free from birth
Give me hope
Help me cope, with this heavy load
Trying to, touch and reach you with,
heart and soul.

 

[beachbaby179]

See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me
Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet

 

[ydahecnot]

I would climb any mountain
Sail across a stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby
To show you how much you mean to me
And I guess it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all in the world to me

It feels like the first time
Feels like the very first time
It Feels like the first time
It Feels like the very first time

 

[beachbaby179]

I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
Now I've found you
There's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry
Love will keep us alive

 

[Blueskiessmiling]

Baby, now that I’ve found you, I can't let you go
I'll build my world around you, I need you so
Baby, even though you don't need me
You don't need me
Baby, now that I've found you, I can't let you go
I'll build my world around you, I need you so
Baby, even though you don't need me
You don't need me.
