Baby Blues 04:01
V1 We met some time Just a little while ago Both with our friends and high on something You caught my eyes with the way you walked Drew me in with the way that you talked When you looked my way All I could say was Chorus Oh my my my my baby blues Oh my my my just like swimming pools Oh my my my baby I am diving in to you, and your baby blues V2 I can’t get you off my mind Think about you day and night You know I’m waiting, watching, hoping for a sign That I’m worthy of affection, Or a sliver of your time Or just one more look into your eyes Chorus Oh my my my my baby blues Oh my my my just like swimming pools Oh my my my baby I am diving in to you, and your baby blues Bridge Won’t you love me, need me, feel me, squeeze me Touch me hug me, hold me feed me Take me home make me feel like I’m your only one And hey, maybe you would say Chorus Oh my my my my baby blues Oh my my my just like swimming pools Oh my my my baby I am diving in to you, and your Baby blues

Verse 1 I always wondered if I could be your Captain Thunder You’d be my lighting… Together we’d be so frightening In the playpen we’d stay then fighting crime until bed time One more story I implore thee, but please won’t you leave the night light on Chorus You, Me and Optimus Prime We’d have a real good time And if you would like to grow up you just shouldn’t show up Verse 2 We could live in a castle by the sea if you please We’d hold off the siege, we could fight the cavalry All the lego would say oh you two should act your age So put away those horses and play thrones while mother is on the phone Chorus You, Me and Optimus Prime We’d have a real good time And if you would like to grow up you just shouldn’t show up Bridge And when we get older I’ll become a soldier But you’ll wait and I’ll get home safe We can pick it up where we left it off Verse3 We could have our friends over for tea nightly Biscuits from the easy bake on your birthday a DQ cake And some snowcones I should think so, big league chew I know Blowing bubbles make it double but don’t let it pop or we might get in trouble Chorus You, Me and Optimus Prime We’d have a real good time And if you would like to grow up you just shouldn’t show up

Tanqueray Blues V1 All these bottles are starting to pile up All these Tonic cans and empty cups They’re filling my shoes Darling I don’t know what to do Chorus Because I’m thinking of you I’ve got a case of the Tanqueray Blues V2 This bitter taste will tie me over Till I can get some weight off of my shoulders This love is abuse Tell me darling, what did I do Chorus Because I’m thinking of You I’ve got a case of the Tanqueray Blues Bridge And in time I hope this pain will go Before My heart, it starts to slow I’m ashamed, for my heart is hardly tame But the way you left, it’s like you never came Chorus I’m thinking of you, I’ve got a case of the Tanqueray blues Outro (v3) And if you ever come back to me The chain will loosen and I will be free From my bottle tooth Oh I’ll never love another but you

Speed On Home V1 Well you are my only girl My only lady and I’m gonna keep it that way When you’re gone, I get cold Just a little cold when you’re not here to hold me tightly PC1 And I miss you like a fat kid misses his cake I miss you like a gardener misses his cake my dear So get on the next plane train or automobile, say that you will…. Chorus Speed on home to me (yeah) Speed on home to me V2 Well you are so beautiful So beautiful and that ain’t no bullshit baby When you’re gone I’m alone Truly alone when you’re in another time zone PC2 And I miss you like a hippie misses his wake and bake I miss you like a teenager misses his fake I.D. So get on the next plane or train or automobile, say that you will… Chorus Speed on home to me (Come back where you belong) Speed on Home to me (Say that you won’t be long) Cuz I’ll be waiting at the platform with my best suit on and I’ll be there everyday, oh baby till you come back home Bridge When I get you in the doorway, your clothes will be lying on the floor All this time you were away just made me love you more PC3 And I miss you like a hockey player misses his skates I miss you like superman misses his cape it’s clear So get on the next plane or train or automobile, say that you will… (yeah) Chorus Speed on home to me (come back where you belong) Speed on home to me (I pray that you won’t be long) Cuz I’ll be waiting at arrivals with a sign in my hands Purple heart beside your name just to let you know that I’m your man Oh and I can’t hardly wait until I have you in my arms again

Nadia 05:44
Nadia V1 Now the war is over, and I don’t know where to begin Now that were through I just can’t stop thinking about you It’s a strange disease, that’s got a hold of me It’s got chains round my feet, they make noise on the street, and scare away every other girl I meet PC I’m broke and I’m breaking I’m tired of trying to shake you off The price of freedom is steeper than I ever had thought Chorus Oh Nadia I was a fool to run from you V2 And after all is said and done I can’t explain why it was I’d run away But I just could not stay And I know I’ll miss you, perhaps until the end of time And these silly rhymes will serve to remind me of the day that I turned you away PC I’m broke and I’m breaking I’m tired of trying to shake you off The price of freedom is steeper than I ever had thought Chorus Oh Nadia I was a fool to run from you Bridge In my heart there will always be a hole That I’ll hide until death is bestowed That I’ll fill with ill substitutes that would never run with the worst of you And I’ll die trying to hide the truth Solo PC Chorus
