Money Honey/The Impossible Dream (The Impossible Dream, 1974)
The landlord rings my front doorbell
I let it ring for a long long spell
Get to the window
Looked through the blind
I asked him to tell me what's on his mind
He said:
Money honey
Money honey
Money honey
If you want to get along with me
I screamed and hollered I was so hard pressed
I called the woman that I loved best
I finally found my baby at half past three
She said now baby what's the matter with me
I said:
Money honey
Money honey
Money honey
If you want to get along with me
To dream the impossible dream
To right the unrightable wrong
to fight the unbeatable foe
To reach the unreachable star
Snake Bite (Tomorrow Belongs to Me, 1975)
Snake Bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
She was a little bit long and a little bit lean
That's the kind of woman make a man feel mean
She was the moon at night
The only light
That would ever brighten my life
She was another man's wife
She was another man's wife
She was another man's wife
She was another man's wife
I'm gonna turn his picture to the wall
With a little bit of boogie, that ain't all
Hang his body on the door
With aching heart and a little bit more
She was another man's wife
She was another man's wife
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
Snake bite, she gimme a snake bite
she was a little bit long and a little bit lean
That's the kind of woman make a man feel mean
She gimme a snake bite
She gimme a snake bite
Tomorrow Belongs To Me (Tomorrow Belongs to Me, 1975)
The sun on the meadow is summery warm
The stag in the forest runs free
But gathered together we'll meet the storm
Tomorrow Belongs To Me
The branch of the Linden is leafy and green
The rage has deserted the sea
The world holds a promise that shines unseen
Tomorrow Belongs To Me
The babe in his cradle is soundly asleep
The blossom embraces the bee
And love like a valley lies wide and deep
Tomorrow Belongs To Me
Oh father Oh father Oh show us a sign
Your children have waited to see
The morning will come when the world is mine
Tomorrow Belongs To Me
Father Oh father Oh show us a sign
Your children have waited to see
The morning will come when the world is mine
Tomorrow belongs, tomorrow belongs
Tomorrow belongs to thee
Tomorrow belongs, tomorrow belongs
Tomorrow belongs to thee
Tomorrow belongs, Tomorrow belongs, Tomorrow belongs to thee
The morning will come when the world is thine
Tomorrow Belongs To Me
School's Out (The Penthouse Tapes, 1976)
So here we are, with freedrom
within our sweaty, greedy, grasps.
So remember this, boyz and girlz,
when freedom comes along...
DON'T pish in the water supply,
just because school is out for the summer...
Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin all that noise
'Cause they found new toys
Well we can't salute ya
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit ya
That's a drag
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Well we got no class
And we got no principles
And we got no innocence
We can't even think of a word that rhymes
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more rule-books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not go back at all
School's out forever
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
School's out completely
Love Story (The Penthouse Tapes, 1976)
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love comes around
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love comes around
I know that I will find she has been wasting time
She could be making a rose
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love changes her mind
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love changes her mind
She never made a sound. Her head is in the clouds
She could be painting her rose
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love has seen the light
I'm going back into my heart in time to see if my love has seen the light
I saw her last night. She couldn't prove her sight
Ah...she could be coming...
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love comes around
Going back into my heart in time to see if my love comes around
I know that I will fin dshe has been wasting time
She could be making a rose
She could be making a rose
Heaven...I'm in Heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven...I'm in Heaven
And the cares, that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
I'd love to climb a mountain...to reach the highest peak
It don't excite me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
I love to go out fishing...in a river or a creek
It don't excite me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek
Dance with me. I want my arms about you.
The charms about you...will...carry me through to
Cheek To Cheek (The Penthouse Tapes, 1976)
Heaven...I'm in Heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Dance with me. I want my arms about you.
The charms about you...will...carry me through to
Heaven..ha..ha..ha..ha..ha!!
I'm in Heaven..ha..ha..
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
Boston Tea Party (The Sensational Alex Harvey Band Stories, 1976)
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the Boston Tea Party?
Redcoats in the village
There's fighting in the streets
The Indians and the
mountain men, well
They are talking when they meet
The king has said he's gonna put a tax on tea
And that's the reason you all Americans drink coffee
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the Boston Tea Party?
Fire in the mountains, flames upon the heath
And the resident spits out the news
He's biting on wooden teeth
The children of the colonies
Got a different tale to tell
I'm going down to the city
Tell my folks I'm doing well
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the Boston Tea Party?
Bringing back the buffalo to the long prairie
Bringing back the fishes swimming in the sea
The children of the colonies
Got a different tale to tell
I'm going down to the city
Tell my folks I'm doing well
Are you going to the party?
Are you going to the Boston Tea Party?
Water Beastie (Rock Drill, 1978)
(Band chanting)
A hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, het!
A hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, het!
A hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, het!
A hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, het!
A hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, het!

(Band continues chanting while Alex sings)
When I was nothing but a baby sitting on my Granny's knee
She said "If you be a bad boy the Beastie's gonna get you"
The Beastie's gonna get me. The Water Beastie's gonna get me
(Chanting stops)
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress.
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
He got a neck so long and strong speeding through the water
Head like a horse who looked like a swan. And he made a noise like uh...(monster sound)
Make a noise like a monster sound uh...(monster sound)
Make a noise like a monster sound uh...(monster sound)
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress.
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in distress.
Look at the monster. Look at the monster. Look at the monster in Lochness
Gamblin' Bar Room Blues (The Penthouse Tapes, 1976)
Ho! He! Ho! He! You're just as drunk as me
Ho! He! Ho! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
I went down to the corner, just for to meet my pal
I found him talking on the sidewalk, talking to my gal
I went back to the bar room, to get another drink of gin
But the first thing I knew I was reeling, rocking drunk again
Ho! He! Ho! He! You're just as drunk as me
Ho! He! Ho! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
I kept on drinking liquor, to way out in the night
My pal came into the bar room and we had an awful fight
I reached down for my razor and then we messed around
But when I drew my pistol, I quickly smoked him down
Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me
Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
So I headed on back to the bar room, stopping in at the bar
And there I met a policeman, sitting in a motor car
We kept drinking lots of liquor, that flat-footed cop, and I
I thought he would never leave me. I knew that he had to die
And I laid my head on the bar room floor
Never get drunk anymore
I pawned my watch, my golden chain
I pawned my baby's diamond ring
Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me
Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me
Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
