"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die"
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It's apropos of nothing, he says his name is William
I'm sure he's Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy
And he's plain ugly to me
And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole life

My arms are missing you
My lips feel the same way too
I've tried so hard to be true
Like I promised I'd do
But this boy keeps coming around
He's trying to wear my resistance down

Hey, Jimmy
Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you coming back?

The black-throated wind keeps on pouring in
With its words of a lie that could almost be true
Ah Mother American Night, here comes the light
I'm turning around that's what I'm gonna do

Goin' back home that's what I'm gonna do
Turnin' around
That's what I'm gonna do

Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
But he knew it couldn't last
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona
For some California grass

Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back, get back
Get back to where you once belonged
Get back Jojo

Go home

Da Da, ooooh
Well, my friends, the time has come
To raise the roof and have some fun
Throw away the work to be done
Let the music play on (play on, play on, play on...)
Everybody sing, everybody dance
Lose yourself in wild romance
We're going to Party, Karamu, Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along!
We're going to Party, Karamu, Fiesta, forever
Come on and sing along!

All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long (all night), All night (all night)
All night long! (all night), Ooh, yeah (all night)

This magic moment, so different and so new
But like any other until I kissed you
And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too by the look in your eyes

You have to believe we are magic

Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you

Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart?
How the music can free her whenever it starts
And it's magic if the music is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie
I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul
But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout a rock 'n' roll

So just tell me you love me and tell me you'll stay
And you'll watch over this house while I go away
And just promise to be here when I get back home
So we can start where we left off all those years ago
Before my demons, well they took control
Lost and lonely out here on the road

There's a red house over yonder
That's where my baby stays
Lord, there's a red house over yonder
Lord, that's where my baby stays

I ain't been home to see my baby
In ninety-nine and one half days
Wait a minute something's wrong here
The key won't unlock this door

Off we go into the wild blue yonder

Climbing high into the sun

Here they come zooming to meet our thunder

At'em boys, giv'er the gun

Down we dive spouting our flames from under

Off with one hell-uv-a roar

We live in fame or go down in flame

Nothing'll stop the Army Air Corps

Here we come, walkin' down the street
We get the funniest looks from everyone we meet
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees and people say we monkey around
But we're too busy singing to put anybody down

She  got less than you or I, she got less than me
She got less than you or I, she got less than me
She get, she get tired, she gets tired
She got more than you or I, she got more than me
She got more than you or I, she got more than me
She get, she get wild, she gets wild
Balling all night balling all day, she won't ball on me
Balling all night balling all day, she won't ball on me
She will, she will die, she will die, she don't care
Crying all night, crying all day, she will cry for me
Crying all night, crying all day, she will cry for me
She will, she will smile, she will smile
She will die, she will die, she don't care

If you were my woman
And I was your man
There'd be no other woman
You'd be weak as a lamb
If you had the strength to walk out that door
My love would overrule my sense, I'd call you back for more

If you were my woman
If you were my woman
And I was your man, yeah

Well you can tell everyone I'm a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place
I don't care any more

 

You can tell everybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cause I just can't win
I don't care any more
I don't care any more, d'you hear?

I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play

 

'Cause I've been talking to the people
That you call your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to an end
They don't care any more

 

And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind
I don't care any more
I don't care no  more

 

I don't care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway

I won't be there any more
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time

 

I don't care any more
I don't care any more
I don't care any more
I don't care any more

Andre has a red flag, Chiang Ching's is blue
They all have hills to fly them on except for Lin Tai Yu
Dressing up in costumes, playing silly games
Hiding out in treetops, shouting out rude names

Whistling tunes, we hide in the dunes by the seaside
Whistling tunes, we piss on the goons in the jungle
It's a knockout

If looks could kill, they probably will
In games without frontiers, war without tears
If looks could kill, they probably will
In games without frontiers, war without tears

I am standing up at the water's edge in my dream
I cannot make a single sound as you scream
It can't be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch
Hey, we touch
This place is so quiet, sensing that storm

Red rain is coming down, red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

If I was a junkman selling you cars,
Washing your windows and shining your stars,
Thinking your mind was my own in a dream

What would you wonder and how would it seem?

Living in castles a bit at a time
The King started laughing and talking in rhyme.

Hey, don't you worry, I've been lied to
I've been here many times before
Girl, don't you worry, I know where I stand
I don't need this love, I don't need your hand
I know I could turn, blink, and you'd be gone
Then I must be prepared any time to carry on

 

But minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on

I don't mind other guys dancing with my girl
That's fine, I know them all pretty well
But I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind with the kids, they're alright
The kids are alright

At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a slient town
And loves a man who's not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say Brandy you're a fine girl
(You're a fine girl)
What a good wife you would be
(Such a fine girl)
But my life my love and my lady is the sea

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far,
Lost in musing circumstances, that's just where you are

 

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace
Yours is no disgrace
Yours is no disgrace

Everyone was hangin' out
Hangin' up and hangin' down
Hangin' in and holding fast
Hope our little world will last


Yeah, along came Mr. Goodtrips
Lookin' for a new a ship
Come on, people, better climb on board
Come on, baby, now we're goin' home
Ship of fools
Ship of fools

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

 

For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I'm just a link in your chain

 

Oh, you got me where you want me
I ain't nothin' but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools
