(Awright, getting a bit grim in here. Time for levity.)

 

Big lizard in my backyard

Can't afford to feed him anymore

Big lizard in my backyard

Bustin' down my neighbor's door

 

I bought a big lizard only a dollar fifty

Well, that's pretty neat, yeah it's f***in' nifty

But I just can't afford to feed it

And you should see the way it s**ts

 

I've got a big lizard in my backyard

Can't afford to feed it anymore

Big lizard in my backyard

Bustin' down my neighbor's door

 

I was knocked outta bed late last night

I was woken up by the sound of dynamite

I ran downstairs to find an army man

He said, "We gotta blow up those things we don't understand!"

 

There's no more big lizard in my backyard

I won't have to feed him anymore

No more lizard in my backyard

They shipped his a** to El Salvador

 

Was knocked outta bed late last night

I was woken up by the sound of dynamite

I ran downstairs to find an army man

He said, "We gotta blow up those things we don't understand"

 

Big lizard in my backyard

Can't afford to feed it anymore

Big lizard in my backyard

Bustin' down my neighbor's door

 

I bought a big lizard only a dollar fifty

Well, that's pretty neat, yeah it's f***in' nifty

But I just can't afford to feed it

When you're down in troubles
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon i will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
Yes I will
You've got a friend

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises
All lies and jest
Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of a railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know
Lie-la-lie...

The Indians send signals
From the rocks above the pass
The cowboys take positions
In the bushes and the grass

The squaw is with the corporal
She is tied against the tree
She doesn't mind the language
It's the beating she don't need

She lets loose all the horses
When the corporal is asleep
And he wakes to find the fire's dead
And arrows in his hat

And Davy Crockett rides around
And says it's cool for cats

Cool for cats.

 

The Sweeney's doing ninety
'Cause they've got the word to go
They get a gang of villains
In a shed up at Heathrow

 

They're counting out the fivers
When the handcuffs lock again
In and out of Wandsworth
With the numbers on their names

 

It's funny how their missus'
Always look the bleeding same
And meanwhile at the station
There's a couple of likely lads
Who swear like how's your father
And they're very cool for cats
They're cool for cats

I tell you I didn't do it
'Cause I wasn't there
Don't blame me, it just isn't fair
You listen to their side
Now listen to mine
Can't think of a story
Sure you'll find me sometime

Now pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three
(One two three)
Then I'll be gone and you'll forget
The broken window, t.v. set

It wasn't me either, I'm just his mate
He told me to stand here and watch the gate
I've got a wife and three kids you know
They'll tell you I'm straight, at least I think so
I'm as honest as the day is long,
The longer the daylight, the less I do wrong

Now pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three
(One two three)
Then I'll be gone and you'll forget
The broken window, t.v. set

Pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three
(One two three)
Then I'll be gone and I'll forget
That what you give is what you get...

Pass the blame and don't blame me
Just close your eyes and count to three
(One two three)

Young man, there's no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.

Young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

They have everything for you men to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys...

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal,
You can do whatever you feel...

Different lives
In different places
Familiar problems
Same old faces

Shuffle lives
Into wrong categories
Cross the wires
And fuse humanities

Watch the muscles twitch
For a brand new switch...

Scientist G.P.'s
With patient guinea pigs
Curing their headaches
With drastic side-effects

Watch the muscles twich
For a brand new switch'

Doctor rectorates
Condescending from on high
For all hallucinators
See druggist in the sky

Vicar experiments
But 'tis blasphemy
Dismissing thought of progress
As the mark of devilry
Switch

People walk
And even talk
People listen
Then they halt

Something blows up
Won't come down
Scattered muscles twitch
Too late to switch

Well you call your mamma tiger
And we all know you are lying
And your boyfriend's name is eagle
And he lives up in the sky (high high)
Watch out the tiger don't go claw the eagle's eye
But let the eagle take the tiger by surprise
Scratch out her eyes

So make a stand for your man, honey
Try to can the can
Put your man in the can, honey
Get him while you can
Can the can
Can the can
If you can
Well can the can

The atmosphere on the street tonight

Is the driving beat of the world.

The word out here on the street tonight

Is the truest music you've heard.

 

So take your share of the gifts that are there

They all belong to you

And come what may at the break of each day

We all begin anew once more

We all begin anew.

 

Baby, baby, baby let's investigate

The other side of life tonight

The lovers and the fighters and the risks they take

Are on the other side of life tonight

 

Let's lose our way, go completely astray

And find ourselves again.

You know the only way to get there

Is to take that step

To the other side of life tonight.

Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
Cos I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

Should five per cent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
Cos I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet

All night long, you've been looking at me
Well you know you're the dance hall cutie that you love to be
Oh well now, you've been laying it down
You've got your hips swinging out of bounds
And I like the way you do what you're doin' to me

Alright
That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right I really love your tiger light
That's neat, that's neat, that's neat, that's neat, I really love your tiger feet
I really love your tiger feet
Your tiger feet
Your tiger feet
Your tiger feet
Well alright
