People all over the world
People all over the world
People all over the world are starving
For affection

And to me, this ain't funny
To me this is real
So I tell everybody the way I feel

Well I walked past just yesterday
And I couldn't bare that new mall no more
I can't expect you all to see it my way
But you may not know what was there before
And I want them to put back my old corner store.

Well I walked past just like I say
And I felt this hurt that would not go home

Well if you've been to cities but you've had enough
Have you been to Paris, France?
And if you doubt that Paris was made for love
Give Paris one more chance
The home of Piaf and Chevalier
Must have done something right to get passion this way
If you don't think Paris was made for love
Give Paris one more chance

Hello, this is Cupid speaking
And I can make you fall in love
But I can't stop you from running away

Hello honey
Yes, this is Cupid
And you can do what you want
And you can fight if you will

Well I can't find my best friend
To help me through this night
I can't find my best friend
Because she's somewhere out of sight

I miss her
I miss her
And let there be no doubt

I easy laugh, I easy cry
I soft inside, she partly why
I used to yearn, and now I sing
Since she's my queen,
Well that makes me king

And she and I are like brother and sister,
I get to be her companion

[Verse 1]

Well I was dancing at a night club one Friday night
And that night club bar was a little uptight
Yeah, I was dancing all alone a little self conscious
When some kids came up and said, "If you're dancing come with us."
And soon...

My love for her ain't sad
this love ain't hard
but this love feels like the real the real the real

My love for her ain't sad
this love ain't hard
but this love feels like the real the real the real

Hi everybody! I'm from the 60's,
The time of Louie Louie and little Latin Lupe Lou.
And I know we can't have those times back again,
But we can have parties like there were then,
We need more parties in the USA,
We need more parties in the USA.

To win you must fight, or so they say
But with love things never seem to work that way.
With love you can't win
If love can't get in
And it can't pierce the heart of a defender.
To win in love you must surrender.

If you're angry then you can't surrender, no.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

When there's things to do not because you gotta
When you run for love not because you oughtta
When you trust your friends with no reason ta nada
This joy I've named shall not be tamed
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you

Jonathan it's late, don't you think that I should go
Naw we were just starting to talk now,
It was just getting good don't you know.

But if I leave here in the morning. Yeah.
What will the neighbors tell your wife?
Well my wife knows me by now
So there's no need to let the neighbors run my life.

well when I first smelled the bus fumes
from the diesel motor
well my two year old mind could only applaud
such odor
the world is showing me its tricks
the world was showing its hand

then an alley somewhere

His friends would say stop whining,
they've had enough of that.
His friends would say stop pining,
there's others girls to look at.

They've tried to set him up with Tiffany and Indigo,
but there's something about Mary that they don't know.

but there's something about Mary that they don't know.

Well, it hurts from the bottom
and it hurts down to your soul
that's because true love is not nice.
And it brings up hurt from when
you were five years old
that's because true love is nice.

Oh, pain, pain, pain,

They were wild like the USA
A mystery band in a New York way
Rock and roll, but not like the rest
And to me, America at it's best
How in the world were they making that sound?
Velvet Underground.

A spooky tone on a Fender bass

Well I'm a gonna tell you if you don't know
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
About a great ball player from a long time ago
Bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum ba bum
Whose a hero to me I ain't puttin' you on son.
Cause I'm now gonna tell a story of baseball's great Walter Johnson.

All through baseball he was loved and respected

Things were slow
A little slow
And I was at the kind of party where I said I wouldn't go
But in the moon I stayed
And then I didn't blush at all at the scene I made

Well they're all in my trance
When I dance

Well, she was born in the winter
When the sun shines so pale.
Whereas I was born in the spring
In case you can't tell
In case you can't tell.
But when she kisses me
The maple tree meets the honey bee.
When she kisses me

I, Jonathan (1992)

[Verse 1]

You wonder why you're feeling blue
And you live with a guy that you can't talk to
You can't talk to the dude
And that's no longer in style
