The Ox (My Generation, 1965)

Whiskey Man (A Quick One, 1965)
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine
Nobody has ever seen him, I'm the only one Seemingly I must be mad, Insanity is fun If that's the way it's done
Doctors say he just a figment of my twisted mind If they can't see my Whiskey Man they must be going blind
Two men dressed in white collected me two days ago They said there's only room for one and Whiskey Man can't go
Whiskey Man will waste away if he's left on his own I can't even ring him 'cause he isn't on the phone Hasn't got a home
Life is very gloomy in my little padded cell It's a shame there wasn't room for Whiskey Man as well
Whiskey Man's my friend, he's with me nearly all the time He always joins me when I drink, and we get on just fine Just fine
Boris the Spider (A Quick One, 1965)
Look, he's crawling up my wall Black and hairy, very small Now he's up above my head Hanging by a little thread
Boris the spider Boris the spider
Now he's dropped on to the floor Heading for the bedroom door Maybe he's as scared as me Where's he gone now, I can't see
Boris the spider Boris the spider
Creepy, crawly Creepy, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
There he is wrapped in a ball Doesn't seem to move at all Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure Pick this book up off the floor
Boris the spider Boris the spider
Creepy, crawly Creepy, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
He's come to a sticky end Don't think he will ever mend Never more will he crawl 'round He's embedded in the ground
Boris the spider Boris the spider
Doctor Doctor (Pictures of Lily, 1967)
Doctor, there's something wrong with me My health is not all that it used to be My heart is out of beat, I got chokers on my feet My eyesight's getting dimmer, I can't see
Doctor thanks for seeing me today, I'm glad, I've got every sickness there is to be had I had whooping cough last month And today I've got the mumps And tomorrow I'll catch chicken pox as well.
Doctor doctor doctor make me well I've not got long to go now I can tell Doctor doctor doctor make me well I've not got long to go I can tell I've not got long to go I can tell
Those pills I took have no effect at all Just the other day I had a nasty fall And I think I broke my jaw when it hit the kitchen floor And I'm shrinking last week I was five foot four
I've been getting shivers lately, is it flu? I know the bug is going round, what can I do? It's about to pick on me, I've still got the other three Do you think I caught smallpox I'd get flu?
Do you think it's time that I made out my will? I'll leave everything to you to pay my bill Just how long is there to go Please tell me I want to know But on second thoughts don't tell me, I'm too ill.
Silas Stingy (The Who Sell Out, 1967)
Once upon a time there lived an old miser man By the name of Silas Stingy He carried all his money in a little black box Which was heavy as a rock With a big padlock All the little kids would shout When Silas was about
Money, money, money bags Money, money, money bags There goes mingy Stingy There goes mingy Stingy Money, money, money bags Money, money, money bags There goes mingy Stingy There goes mingy Stingy
Silas didn't eat, which was just as well He would starve himself for a penny He wore old clothes and he never washed 'Cause soap cost a lot And the dirt kept him hot All the little kids would shout When Silas was about
In the back of his head Was a voice that said "Someone will steal it all You'll be lying in the gutter with an empty box The thieves will be having a ball"
He bought a safe to put the box in And a house to put the safe in And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure And his face was very funny When he counted up his money And he realized he hadn't any more
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Magic Bus (single), 1968)
Hyde, Hyde.
Someone is spending my money for me, The money I earn I never see, In all things I do he interferes, All I know is trouble as soon as he appears.
Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde.
When I drink my potion my character changes, My whole mind and body rearranges, This strange transformation takes place in me, Instead of myself everybody can see...
Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde.
Whenever you're with me make sure it's still me, I've got to the stage I can't tell which I'll be, The loveable fellow who'll buy you a drink, Then when he's drunk his he'll change in a wink into...
Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Mister Hyde, Hyde. |
