One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock rock
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock rock.
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock rock
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight.

Put your glad rags on and join me hon'
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one.
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'till broad daylight
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight.

Ever seen a blind man cross the road
 Trying to make the other side?
 Ever seen a young girl growing old
 Trying to make herself a bride?

 So what becomes of you my love
 When they have finally stripped you of
 The handbags and the gladrags
 That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

I've been sitting here all day thinking
Same old thing ten years away thinking
Now my days are gone, memories linger on
Thoughts of when I was boy

Pennyfarthings on the street riding
Motorcars were funny things, frightening
Bow and hoops and spinning tops
Annie gretzel's lollipops
Comic cuts, all different things

Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad, grandad you're lovely
That's what we all think of you
Grandad grandad

Yeuch!

I’m just sitting here reminiscing
Wondering who you've been kissing
Baby, oh-oh baby
I've been wandering all around
There must be a new guy in town
You don't love me any more
I'll get over you-a-oo baby
Although my heart's still sore
Well, you know my heart's still sore
Well, you know my heart's still sore
When I think of all the lies you told
To that young man my heart you've sold
True Wit is Nature to Advantage drest,
          What oft was Thought, but ne’er so well Exprest

Baby, baby, baby
Tell me, do you really love me?
Baby, baby, baby
Will you always be there for me?
I can't live without your lovin'
Baby, can't you see?
Baby, baby, baby
Tell me, do you love me now?
I can't wait to see your face everyday
I can't explain the way I feel when I'm around you
There's a space in my heart that belongs to only you
And no one else in this world comes close to you
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Do you understand me?
Got a thing for you, and I'm not playing

I don't know the meaning of much
I never make the best impressions
And I don't have the means of expression
To explain my obsessions

All I'm trying to tell you
All I'm trying to say
All I'm trying to tell you is this is enough
But you're walking away
True Wit is Nature to Advantage drest,
          What oft was Thought, but ne’er so well Exprest

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by.

Make believe
that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve in private
Cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by
And walk on by
And walk on by

If I heard your voice
I'd beg you to stay
So don't say a word
Just run, run away

Goodbye my love
My tears will fall
Now that you've gone
I can't help but cry
But I must go on
I'm sad that I have been searchin so long
You, I love you but told you
Walk away, walk on, walk on

If your sweetheart send a letter of goodbye
It's no secret you'll feel better if you cry...
When waking from a bad dream
Don't you sometimes think it's real?
But it's only false emotions that you feel

If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Remember sunshine can be found
Behind a cloudy sky
So let your hair down and go on and cry.

I know, somewhere, someday, I'll find
One love to take your place
One girl with an angel face
But in the meantime

I'll never get over you
No I'll never get over you
I just can't keep it a secret anymore
Oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no

There's a place for us,
Somewhere a place for us.
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere.

There's a time for us,
Some day a time for us,
Time together with time to spare,
Time to learn, time to care,
Some day!

Somewhere.
We'll find a new way of living,
We'll find a way of forgiving

Our day will come (Our day will come)
And we'll have everything
We'll share the joy (We'll share the joy)
Falling in love can bring
No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know (young to know)
I love you so (love you so)
And you love me
Our day will come (Our day will come)
If we just wait a while
No tears for us (No tears for us)
Think love and wear a smile

Fairy tales can come true
It can happen to you if you're young at heart
For it's hard, you will find
To be narrow of mind if you're young at heart.

You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on it's way.

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go

To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

It's a kind of magic.
It's a kind of magic.
A kind of magic.

One dream, one soul,
One prize, one goal.
One golden glance of what should be.

It's a kind of magic.

One shaft of light that shows the way.
No mortal man can win this day.

It's a kind of magic.

The bell that rings inside your mind
Is challenging the doors of time.

It's a kind of magic.

Ho, ho, ho
It's magic you know
Never believe, it's not so
It's magic, you know
Never believe, it's not so

Never been awake
Never seen a day break
Leaning on my pillow in the morning
Lazy day in bed
Music in my head
Crazy music playing in the morning light

Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
You can't get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the noon day sun

Lazybones, layin' in the shade
How you gonna get your cornmeal made?
You can't get no cornmeal made
Sleepin' in that evening shade.

The foot bone connected to the leg bone,
The leg bone connected to the knee bone,
The knee bone connected to the thigh bone,
The thigh bone connected to the back bone,
The back bone connected to the neck bone,
The neck bone connected to the head bone,
Oh, hear the word of the Lord!

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

I'm gonna kick my feet up then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand in my pants
Nobody's gon' tell me I can't

I'll be lounging on the couch just chilling in my Snuggie
Click to MTV so they can teach me how to dougie
'Cause in my castle I'm the freaking man

(I was looking for a song I knew when young which goes,
"Ooh lazy lady you're incredible, sensational, but never operational 'til......
...independent lady of substantial means, puts on her jeans...."

Can't find it.  Can anyone else?

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive and the world it's turning inside out Yeah!
I'm floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now don't stop me
'Cause I'm having a good time having a good time.

I'm a shooting star leaping through the skies
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go go go
There's no stopping me.

I look like a little girl
Living in a big mans' world
But the ribbons that you see
Hide the real me
Loves I've left behind
Might make you think and change your mind

I'm a tiger, I'm a tiger I'm a tiger, I'm a tiger
I'm a tiger, I'm a tiger I'm a tiger, I'm a tiger

I'm comin' home, I've done my time
Now I've got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'll know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me.

Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
It's been three long years
Do ya still want me (still want me)
If I don't see a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
I'll stay on the bus
Forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree.

Then I awake and look around me, at the four grey walls that surround me
and I realize, yes, I was only dreaming.
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre -
arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak.
Again I touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree
as they lay me neath the green, green grass of home.

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long
Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly
