She sang the best she'd ever sang
She couldn't ever sing any better
But Mister Davidson never rang
She knew he would forget her
She'd seen him there
And put herself to ransom
He had stared
He really was quite handsome
She had really looked her best
She couldn't ever look any better
But she knew she'd failed the test
She knew he would forget her
Triumphant was the way she felt
As she acknowledged the applause
Triumphant was the way she'd felt
When she saw him at the dressing room door
She was happier than she'd ever been
As he praised her for her grace
But his expression changed, she had seen
As he leant to kiss her face
It ended there
He claimed a late appoinment
She quickly turned
To hide her disappointment

Me and My brother were talking to each other 'bout makes a man a man?
Was it brain or brawn or the month you you were born
We just couldn't understand...I hope that like our apperance
So me and my brother borrowed we knew what we had to do
We went downstairs past the barber and gymnasium and got our arms tattooed
Welcome to me life tattoo
I'm a man now thanks to you
I expect i'll regret you but the skin man he won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo...
My dad beat cause mine said mother
But my mother naterly like it and beat my brother
Cause his tattoo was a lady in the nude
And my mother thought that was extremly rude
Welcome to me life tattoo
I'm a man now thanks to you
I expect i'll regret you but the skin man he won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo...
Now i'm older i'm tattoed all over
My wife is tattooed too
A roodie toto toto roodie toto toto
Roodie toto toto tattoo to you

| I Can See For Miles | |
|
I know you've deceived me, now here's a surprise
I know that have 'cause there's magic in my eyes
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah
If you think that I don't know about those little tricks you've played
And never see you when you deliberately you put things in my way
Well, here's a poke at you
You're gonna choke on it too
You're gonna lose that smile
Because of the while
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah
You took advantage of my trust in you when I was so far away
I saw you holding lots of other guys and now you've got the nerve to say
That you still want me
Well,that's as may be
But you gotta stand trial
Because of the while
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah
I know you've deceived me, now here's a surprise
I know that have 'cause there's magic in my eyes
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah
The Eiffel Tower andthe Taj Mahal are mine to see on clear days
You thought I would need a crystal ball to see right through the haze
Well, here's a poke at you
You're gonna choke on it too
You're gonna lose that smile
Because of the while
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
and miles and miles and miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles

| Someone's Coming | |

Goodnight baby,
Someone's a-comin', someone's a-comin',
Goodnight baby,
Gotta get a-runnin', gotta get a-runnin'.
Your father doesn't like me,
Told you that you couldn't see me any more,
That's why we meet in secret,
That's why we're hiding here.
Goodnight baby,
Same time tomorrow, same time tomorrow,
Goodnight baby,
See you here tomorrow, see you here tomorrow.
Your mother made you stay in,
When she saw you going out with me,
You'll say you'll take the dog out,
Then you sneak out here to me.
If your parents find you here,
You're gonna get a hiding, gonna get a hiding,
So I'll vanish, disappear,
See you here tomorrow, see you here tomorrow
