CAR

Asked a girl what she wanted to be

I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between.

I told that girl that my prospects were good
And se said baby, its understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time.

Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe Ill love you

But Ive found a driver and thats a start.
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, Im gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe Ill love you
Beep beepm beep beep yeah.
NORWEGIAN WOOD ( THIS BIRD HAS
FLOWN )
( Lennon-McCartney )
I once had a girl, or should I say,
she once had me
She showed me her room, isnt it good, norwegian wood ?
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around and I noticed there wasnt a chair.
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine
We talked until two and then she said, its time for bed.
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh
I told her I didnt and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And when I awoke I was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire, isnt it good, norwegian wood.
YOU WONT SEE
ME
( Lennon-McCartney )
When I call you up, your lines
engaged
I have had enough, so act your age
We have lost the time, that was so hard to find
And I will lose my mind if you wont see me
You wont see me.
I dont know why you should want to hide
But I cant get through, my hands are tied
I wont want to stay, I dont have much to say
But I cant turn away if you wont see me
You wont see me.
Time after time you refuse to even listen
I wouldnt mind if I knew what I was missing.
Though the days are few, theyre filled with tears
And since I lost you, it feels like years
Yes, it seems so long, girl, since youve been gone
And I just cant go on if you wont see me
You wont see me.
Time after time you refuse to even listen
I wouldnt mind if I knew what I was missing.
Though the days are few, theyre filled with tears
And since I lost you, it feels like years
Yes, it seems so long, girl, since youve been gone
And I just cant go on if you wont see me
You wont see me.
NOWHERE MAN
( Lennon-McCartney )
Hes a real Nowhere man
Sitting in his Nowhere Land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
Doesnt have a point of view
Knows not where hes going to
Isnt he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen
You dont know what youre missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.
Hes as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere Man, can you see me at all?
Nowhere Man, dont worry
Take your time, dont hurry
Leave it all till somebody else lend you a hand.
Doesnt have a point of view
Knows not where hes going to
Isnt he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen
You dont know what youre missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command.
Hes a real Nowhere Man
Sitting in his Nowhere Land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
THINK FOR YOURSELF
( Harrison )
Ive got a word or two
To say about the things that you do
Youre telling all those lies
About the good things that we can have
If we close our eyes.
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself cause I wont be there with you.
I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you had in mind
And though you still cant see
I know your minds made up
Youre gonna cause more misery.
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself cause I wont be there with you.
Although your minds opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake
The future still looks good
And youve got time to rectify
All the things that you should.
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself cause I wont be there with you.
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself cause I wont be there with you
Think for yourself cause I wont be there with you.
THE WORD
( Lennon-McCartney )
Say the word and youll be free
Say the word and be like me
Say the word Im thinking of
Have you heard the word is love?
Its so fine, Its sunshine
Its the word, love.
In the beginning I misunderstood
But now Ive got it, the word is good.
Spread the word and youll be free
Spread the word and be like me
Spread the word Im thinking of
Have you heard the word is love?
Its so fine, Its sunshine
Its the word, love.
Every where I go I hear it said
In the good and bad books that I have read.
Say the word and youll be free
Say the word and be like me
Say the word Im thinking of
Have you heard the word is love?
Its so fine, Its sunshine
Its the word, love.
Now that I know what I feel must be right
Im here to show everyody the light.
Give the word a chance to say
That the word is just the way
Its the word Im thinking of
And the only word is love
Its so fine, Its sunshine
Its the word, love.
Say the word love
Say the word love
Say the word love
Say the word love.
MICHELLE
( Lennon-McCartney )
Michelle, ma belle
These are words that go together well
My Michelle.
Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble.
I love you, I love you, I love you
Thats all I want to say until I find a way
I will say the only words I know that youll understand.
Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble.
I need to, I need to, I need to
I need to make you see, oh, what you mean to me
Until I do Im hoping you will know what I mean - I love you.
I want you, I want you, I want you
I think you know by now
Ill get to you somehow
Until I do Im telling you so youll understand.
Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
Tres bien ensemble.
And I will say the only words I know that youll understand
My Michelle
WHAT GOES ON
( Lennon-McCartney-Starkey )
What goes on in your heart?
What goes on in your mind?
You are tearing me apart
When you treat me so unkind
What goes on in your mind.
The other day I saw you as I walked along the road
But when I saw him with you I could feel my future fold
Its so easy for a girl like you to lie, tell me why.
What goes on in your heart?
What goes on in your mind?
You are tearing me apart
When you treat me so unkind
What goes on in your mind.
I met you in the morning waiting for the tides of time
But now the tide is turning, I can see that I was blind
Its so easy for a girl like you to lie, tell me why.
What goes on in your heart?
I used to think of no one else but you were just the same
You didnt even think of me as someone with a name
Did you mean to break my heart and watch me die, tell me why.
What goes on in your heart?
What goes on in your mind?
You are tearing me apart
When you treat me so unkind
What goes on in your mind... in your mind.
GIRL
( Lennon-McCartney )
Is there anybody gone to listen to
my story
All about the girl who came to stay?
Shes the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry
Still, you dont regret a single day
Ah, Girl! Girl!
When I think of all the times Ive tried so hard to
leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry
And she promises the earth to me and I believe her
After all this times I dont know why
Ah, Girl! Girl!
Shes the kind of girl who puts you down
When friends are there, you feel a fool
When you say shes looking good
She acts as if its understood
Shes cool, cool, cool, cool.
Girl! Girl!
Was she told when she was young the pain would lead to
pleasure?
Did she understand it when they said
That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure?
Will she still believe it when hes dead?
Ah, Girl! Girl!
IM LOOKING
THROUGH YOU
( Lennon-McCartney )
Im looking through you, where
did you go
I though I knew you, what did I know
You dont look difference, but you have changed
Im looking though you, youre not the same.
Your lips are moving, I cannot hear
Your voice is sooting, but the words arent clear
You dont sound different, Ive learned the game
Im looking through you, youre not the same.
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight.
Youre thinking of me, the same old way
You were above me, but not today
The only difference is youre down there
Im looking through you, and youre nowhere.
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight.
Im looking through you, where did you go
I though I knew you, what did I know
You dont look difference, but you have changed
Im looking though you, youre not the same.
IN MY LIFE
( Lennon-McCartney )
There are places Ill remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life Ive loved them all.
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know Ill never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know Ill often stop and think about them
In my life Ive love you more.
Though I know Ill never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know Ill often stop and think about them
In my life Ive love you more
In my life Ive love you more.
WAIT
( Lennon-McCartney )
Its been a long time, now
Im coming back home
Ive been away now, oh how Ive been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
Well forget the tears weve cried.
But if your heart breaks, dont wait, turn me away
And if your hearts strong, hold on, I wont delay
Wait till I come back to your side
Well forget the tears weve cried.
I feel as though, you ought to know
That Ive been good as good as I can be
And if you do, Ill trust in you
And know that you will wait for me.
Its been a long time, now Im coming back home
Ive been away now, oh how Ive been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
Well forget the tears weve cried.
I feel as though, you ought to know
That Ive been good as good as I can be
And if you do, Ill trust in you
And know that you will wait for me.
Its been a long time, now Im coming back home
Ive been away now, oh how Ive been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
Well forget the tears weve cried.
Its been a long time, now Im coming back home
Ive been away now, oh how Ive been alone.
IF I NEEDED SOMEONE
( Harrison )
If I needed someone to love
Youre the one that Id be thinking of
If I needed someone.
If I had some more time to spend
That I guess Id be with you my friend
If I needed someone.
Had you come some other day
Then it might not have been like this
But you see now Im too much in love.
Carve your number on my wall
And maybe you will get a call from me
If I needed someone.
If I had some more time to spend
That I guess Id be with you my friend
If I needed someone.
Had you come some other day
Then it might not have been like this
But you see now Im too much in love.
Carve your number on my wall
And maybe you will get a call from me
If I needed someone.
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
( Lennon-McCartney )
Well Id rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
If I wont know where I am.
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
Thats the enda, little girl.
Well I know that Im a wicked guy
And I was born with a jealous mind
And I cant spend my whole life trying
Just to make you toe the line.
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
Thats the enda, little girl.
Let this be a sermon
I mean everything Ive said
Baby, Im determined
And Id rather see you dead.
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
Thats the enda, little girl.
Id rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
If I wont know where I am.
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand little girl
Catch you with another man
Thats the enda, little girl
Na, na, na, na, na, na.
