Pariah

Recommended Posts

Swaying room as the music starts

Strangers making the most of the dark

Two by two their bodies become one

 

I see you through the smokey air

Can't you feel the weight of my stare

You're so close but still a world away

What I'm dying to say, is that

 

I'm crazy for you

Touch me once and you'll know it's true

I never wanted anyone like this

It's all brand new, you'll feel it in my kiss

I'm crazy for you, crazy for you

 

Trying hard to control my heart

I walk over to where you are

Eye to eye we need no words at all

 

Slowly now we begin to move

Every breath I'm deeper into you

Soon we two are standing still in time

If you read my mind, you'll see

 


I'm crazy for you

Touch me once and you'll know it's true

I never wanted anyone like this

It's all brand new, you'll feel it in my kiss

I'm crazy for you, crazy for you

 


It's all brand new, I'm crazy for you

And you know it's true

I'm crazy, crazy for you

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

And I'll do anything you say. 

I'll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool, 

If you'll be my sunshine daisy from L.A.

 

I'll be your leprechaun and sit upon an old toad stool, 

I'll serenade you till I'm old and gray. 

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

You'll be my sunshine daisy from L.A.

 

You'll be my lovely daisy on the mountainside, 

There are lots of other flowers, too. 

But all the other flowers hung their heads and cried

Because the loveliest of all of them was you.

 

But you were evidently the exception to the rule, 

I picked you quickly then I ran away. 

'Cause I was your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

You were my sunshine daisy from L.A.

 

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

And I'll do anything you ask. 

I'll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool, 

Cut my hair, I'll even wear a mask.

 

I'll be your Valentine, and you'll be mine, and things'll be cool. 

We'll move along together every day.

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

You'll be my sunshine daisy from L.A., 

You'll be my sunshine daisy from L.A.

 

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

And I'll do anything you ask. 

I'll be your clown or your puppet or your April Fool, 

Cut my hair I'll even wear a mask.

 

I'll be your Valentine, and you'll be mine, and things'll be cool. 

We'll move along together every day. 

I'll be your long haired lover from Liverpool, 

You'll be my sunshine daisy from L.A.

Hey there...

Where you going with that load of nothing in your hand

I said: Hey there...

All through this green and pleasant land.

 

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life

All the days of my life.

 

Hey there...

Where you going with that UB40 in your hand

I said: Hey there...

All through this green and pleasant land.

 

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life

All the days of my life.

 

Hey now

Where you going with that UB40 in your hand

I said: Hey now

All through this green and pleasant land.

 

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life

All the days of my life.

Woke up this morning feelin' fine

There's something special on my mind

Last night I met a new girl in the neighbourhood, whoa yeah

Something tells me I'm into something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

 

She's the kind of girl who's not too shy

And I can tell I'm her kind of guy

She danced close to me like I hoped she would

(She danced with me like I hoped she would)

Something tells me I'm into something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

 

We only danced for a minute or two

But then she stuck close to me the whole night through

Can I be fallin' in love?

(She's everything I've been dreamin' of)

She's everything I've been dreamin' of

 

I walked her home and she held my hand

I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand

So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could

(I asked to see her and she told me I could)

Something tells me I'm into something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

(Something tells me I'm into something, ahhh)

 

I walked her home and she held my hand

I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand

So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could

(I asked to see her and she told me I could)

Something tells me I'm into something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

Something tells me I'm into something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

To something good, oh yeah, something good

(Something tells me I'm into something)

To something good, something good, something good

There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

She looked good (looked good), she looked fine (looked fine)

She looked good, she looked fine and I nearly lost my mind

 

Before I knew it she was walkin' next to me, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

Holdin' my hand just as natural as can be, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

We walked on (walked on) to my door (my door)

We walked on to my door, then we kissed a little more

 

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love

Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

 

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

Well, I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)

I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

 

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love

Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

 

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"

Well, I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)

I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

 

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah

Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, we'll sing it

Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah

Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do

On our block all of the guys call her flamingo

'Cause her hair glows like the sun

And her eyes can light the skies

When she moves she walks so fine like a flamingo

Crimson dress that clings so tight

She's out of reach and out of sight

When she walks by, she brightens up the neighborhood

Oh, every guy would make her his if he just could

If she just would

 

Some sweet day, I'll make her mine, pretty flamingo

Then every guy will envy me

'Cause paradise is where I'll be

 

Pretty flamingo

Pretty flamingo

When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood

Oh, every guy would make her his if he just could, ha

If she just would

 

Some sweet day, I'll make her mine, pretty flamingo

Then every guy will envy me

'Cause paradise is where I'll be

Listen to me, baby,

There's something you must see.

I want to be with you, gal,

If you want to be with me.

 

But if you got to go,

It's all right.

But if you got to go, go now,

Or else you gotta stay all night.

 

It ain't that I'm questionin' you.

To take part in any quiz.

It's just that I ain't got no watch

An' you keep askin' me what time it is.

 

But if you got to go,

It's all right.

But if you got to go, go now,

Or else you gotta stay all night.

 

I am just a poor boy, baby,

Lookin' to connect.

But I certainly don't want you thinkin'

That I ain't got any respect.

 

But if you got to go,

It's all right.

But if you got to go, go now,

Or else you gotta stay all night.

 

You know I'd have nightmares

And a guilty conscience, too,

If I kept you from anything

That you really wanted to do.

 

But if you got to go,

It's all right.

But if you got to go, go now,

Or else you gotta stay all night.

 

It ain't that I'm wantin'

Anything you never gave before.

It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon,

It'll be too dark for you to find the door.

 

But if you got to go,

It's all right.

But if you got to go, go now,

Or else you gotta stay all night.

So you finally named the day when wedding bells will chime

I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his not mine

Do you think you will be happy, giving up your friends

For your semi-detached suburban Mr. James

 

So you finally got your man, I hope you won't regret it

He can't love you the way I can, so please don't you forget it

Do you think you will be happy, buttering the toast

Of your semi-detached suburban Mr. Most

 

I can see you in the morning time

Washing day, the weather's fine

Hanging things upon the line

And as your life slips away, ay, ay - yeah

 

So you finally named the day when wedding bells will chime

I was sorry to hear you say, you're gonna be his not mine

So you think you will be happy, taking doggie for a walk

With your semi-detached suburban Mr. James (semi-detached suburban Mr. James)

Semi-detached suburban Mr. James

Thank you for the days,

Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.

I'm thinking of the days,

I won't forget a single day, believe me.

 

I bless the light,

I bless the light that lights on you believe me.

And though you're gone,

You're with me every single day, believe me.

 

Days I'll remember all my life,

Days when you can't see wrong from right.

You took my life,

But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,

But it's all right,

Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.

 

I wish today could be tomorrow,

The night is dark,

It just brings sorrow anyway.

 

Thank you for the days,

Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.

ot a feeling inside (Can't explain)

It's a certain kind (Can't explain)

I feel hot and cold (Can't explain)

Yeah, down in my soul, yeah (Can't explain)

 

I said (Can't explain)

I'm feeling good now, yeah, but (Can't explain)

 

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling blue

The things you've said, well, maybe they're true

I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again

I know what it means, but

 

Can't explain

I think it's love

Try to say it to you

When I feel blue

 

But I can't explain (Can't explain)

Yeah, hear what I'm saying, girl (Can't explain)

 

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad

The things you've said have got me real mad

I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again

I know what it means but

 

Can't explain

I think it's love

Try to say it to you

When I feel blue

 

But I can't explain (Can't explain)

Forgive me one more time, now (Can't explain)

 

I said I can't explain, yeah

You drive me out of my mind

Yeah, I'm the worrying kind, babe

I said I can't explain

I'm free- I'm free,

And freedom tastes of reality,

I'm free-I'm free,

AN' I'm waiting for you to follow me.

 

If I told you what it takes

to reach the highest high,

You'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple'

But you've been told many times before

Messiahs pointed to the door

And no one had the guts to leave the temple !

 

I'm free-I'm free

And freedom tastes of reality

I'm free-I'm free

And I'm waiting for you to follow me.

 


I'm free-I'm free

And freedom tastes of reality

I'm free-I'm free

And I'm waiting for you to follow me.

 


How can we follow ?

How can we follow ?

We'll be fighting in the streets

With our children at our feet

And the morals that they worship will be gone

And the men who spurred us on

Sit in judgement of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

 

The change, it had to come

We knew it all along

We were liberated from the fold, that's all

And the world looks just the same

And history ain't changed

'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

No, no !

 

I'll move myself and my family aside

If we happen to be left half alive

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

Though I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya ?

 

There's nothing in the streets

Looks any different to me

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left

Are now parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Don't get fooled again

No, no !

 

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah !

 

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss

I'll soon be with you my love,

To give you my dawn surprise.

I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

 

I've been waiting so long

To be where I'm going

In the sunshine of your love.

 

I'm with you my love,

The light's shinin' through on you.

Yes, I'm with you my love,

It's the morning and just we two.

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Hush now baby, don't you cry
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Time will see your tears run dry
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs just for you and me

Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sun
Bless the tears of love now gone
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs, singing just for me

Well I came upon a child of God, he was walking along the road

And I asked him tell me where are you going, this he told me:

Said, I'm going down to Yasgur's farm, going to join in a rock and roll band.

Got to get back to the land, and set my soul free.

We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

 

Well, then can I walk beside you? I have come to lose the smog.

And I feel myself a cog in something turning.

And maybe it's the time of the year, yes and maybe it's the time of man.

And I don't know who I am but life is for learning.

We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

 

We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

 

By the time we got to Woodstock, we were half a million strong,

And everywhere was a song and a celebration.

And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planes riding shotgun in the sky,

Turning into butterflies above our nation.

 

We are stardust, we are golden, we are caught in the devil's bargain,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

Looking at the world through the sunset in your eyes

Traveling the train through clear Moroccan skies

Ducks and pigs and chickens call

Animal carpet wall to wall

American ladies five-foot tall in blue

 

Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind

Had to get away to see what we could find

Hope the days that lie ahead

Bring us back to where they've led

Listen not to what's been said to you

 

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

They're taking me to Marrakesh

All aboard the train, all aboard the train

 

I've been saving all my money just to take you there

I smell the garden in your hair

 

Take the train from Casablanca going south

Blowing smoke rings from the corners of my mouth

Colored cottons hang in the air

Charming cobras in the square

Striped djellebas we can wear at home Well, let me hear you now

 

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

They're taking me to Marrakesh

 

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

Wouldn't you know we're riding on the Marrakesh Express

They're taking me to Marrakesh

All on board the train, all on board the train

All on board

This here's the story of Cassius Clay

Who changed his name to Muhammad Ali

He knows how to talk and he knows how to fight

And all the contenders were beat out of sight

 

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

Mohammed, the black superman

Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali  .... catch me if you can -

 

Now all you fight fans, you've got to agree

There ain't no flies on Muhammad Ali

He fills the arena wherever he goes

And everyone gets what they paid for

 

Muhammad, was known to have said

You watch me shuffle and I'll jab off your head

He moves like the black superman

And calls to the other guy I'm Ali ... atch me if you can

 

He says I'm the greatest the worlds ever seen

The heavyweight champion who came back again

My face is so pretty you don't see a scar

Which proves I'm the king of the ring by far

 

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

Mohammed, the black superman

Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali .... catch me if you can

 

Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

Me with the floorshow

Kickin' with your torso

Boys getting high

And the girls even more so

Wave your hands if your not with the man

Can I kick it ?

(Yes you can)

I got

(Funk)

You got

(Soul)

We got everybody

I've got the gift

Gonna stick it in the goal

It's time to move your body

 

Babylon back in business

Can I get a witness ?

Every girl, every man

Houston, do you hear me ?

Ground control, can you feel me ?

Need permission to land

I don't wanna rock, DJ

But your making me feel so nice

When's it gonna stop, DJ ?

Cos you're keepin' me up all night

 

Singin' in the classes

Music for your masses

Give no head

No backstage passes

Have a proper giggle

I'll be quite polite

But when I rock the mic

I rock the mic

(Right)

You got no love, then you're with the wrong man

It's time to move your body

If you can't get a girl

But your best friend can

It's time to move your body

 

I don't wanna be sleazy

Baby just tease me

Got no family planned

Houston, do you hear me?

Ground control, can you feel me ?

Need permission to land

I don't wanna rock DJ

But you're making me feel so nice

When's it gonna stop, DJ ?

Cos you're keeping me up all night

 

I don't wanna rock, DJ

But you're making me feel so nice

When's it gonna stop, DJ ?

Cos your keeping me up all night

 

Pimpin' aint easy

Most of them fleece me

Every night

Pimpin' ain't easy

But if you're sellin' it

It's alright

 

Come on

 

I don't wanna rock, DJ

But you're making me feel so nice

When's it gonna stop, DJ ?

Cos you're keeping me up all night

 

I don't wanna rock, DJ

But you're making me feel so nice

When's it gonna stop, DJ ?

On a morning from a Bogart movie
In a country where they turn back time
You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
Contemplating a crime
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
In the year of the cat

 

She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up your arm in hers
And you follow 'till your sense of which direction
Completely disappears
By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
There's a hidden door she leads you to
These days, she says, I feel my life
Just like a river running through
The year of the cat

 

While she looks at you so cooly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and patchouli
So you take her, to find what's waiting inside
The year of the cat

 

Well morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away your choice you've lost your ticket
So you have to stay on
But the drum-beat strains of the night remain
In the rhythm of the new-born day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now you're going to stay
In the year of the cat

It was late in December, the sky turned to snow
All 'round the day was going down slow
Night like a river, beginning to flow
I felt the beat of my mind go
drifting into time passages
Years go falling in the fading light
time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight.

 

Well, I'm not the kind to live in the past
the years run too short, and the days too fast
The things you lean on are the things that don't last
well its just now and then, my line gets cast into these
time passages
There's something back there that you left behind
oh time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight.

 

Hear the echoes and feel yourself starting to turn
Don't know why you should feel
that there's something to learn
it's just a game that you play.

Well, the picture is changing now you're part of the crowd
they're laughing at something and the music's loud
a girl comes toward you, you once used to know
you reach out your hand, but you're all alone in those
time passages
I know you're in there, you're just out of sight,
oh time passages
buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

I'm young enough to still see the passionate boy I used to be
But I'm old enough to say I got a good look at the other side
I know we got to work real hard, maybe even for the rest of our lives
But right now I just want to take what I can
Get tonight

While the night is still young
I want to keep making love to you
While the night is still young

I'd like to settle down
Get married
And maybe have a child someday
I can see a time coming when I'm gonna throw my suitcase out
No more separations
Where you have to say goodnight to a telephone
Baby I've decided that ain't what life is all about

Oh
While the night is still young
While the night is still young
I want to try to make the world brand new
While the night is still young

Rock and roll music was the only thing I
Ever gave a damn about
There was something that was missing
But I never used to wonder why
Now I know you're the one I needed
To make things right again
And I may lose the battle
But you're giving me the will to try

Oh
While the night is still young
Because the night is still young
I've got a lot of catching up to do
While the night is still young

While the night is still young
I want to try to make the world brand new
While the night is still young

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've traveled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Now you are here today
But easily you might just go away
Cause we live in a time
When paintings have no color, words don't rhyme
And that's why I've traveled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've traveled far
Cause I come so together where you are

Yes and all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one
