My Size (Smash Your Head Against the Wall, 1971)
Ever since I first saw you
I never seem to get you of my mind
When I tried to say hello
you tried to go, I made you stay behind
Now your always hangin' round
You never touch the ground
You make me feel so small
Wish I was ten feet tall.
Remember when I lost my cool
Shouted at you, you nearly hit the ceiling
Your trying to make me feel like a fool
Ignoring me you really hurt my feelings
Now your always hangin' round
You never touch the ground
You make me feel so small
Wish I was ten feet tall.
I'm gonna bring you down to my size
One of these days I'm gonna make you fall
I'm gonna bring you down to my size
Smash your head against the wall.
Now your always hangin' round
You never touch the ground
You make me feel so small
Wish I was ten feet tall.
I'm gonna bring you down to my size
One of these days I'm gonna make you fall
I'm gonna bring you down to my size
Smash your head against the wall.
Ever since I first saw you,
I never seem to get you off my mind
When I tried to say hello,
You tried to go I made you stay behind
Now your always hangin' round
You never touch the ground
You make me feel so small
Wish I was ten feet tall.
What Kind of People Are They? (Smash Your Head Against the Wall, 1971)
When you're hungry and your stomach's feeling thin
You find the nearest restaurant and walk right in
Says the waiter with a sigh
You're not dressed without a tie
And you bite your lips to keep the swear words in.
What kind of people are they
What kind of people are they
They've only got their jobs to do
That's why they've got it in for you, you.
Have you ever sat behind a traffic jam
When you'd get there quicker if you walked or ran
When you finally get out, at the front of it no doubt
You'll find a policeman causing chaos with his hand.
What kind of people are they
What kind of people are they
They've only got their jobs to do
That's why they've got it in for you, you .
When you park your car in some deserted street
Give the parking meter sixpences to eat
When the money's been digested
You'll find that you just invested
In the profits of a traffic warden's beat.
What Are We Doing Here? (Smash Your Head Against the Wall, 1971)
What are we doing here
Such a long way away from home
We've been away so long
Away so long away from home.
So what are we doing here
In a place where we have no friends
All we can do is sit and cry
Let the time drag by and think of home.
Home, what a day that will be
The faces of people we love that we'll see
The memories of what we had left will return
The present remains the past is just burned.
And there's only twenty-five days, six hours, and ten minutes
And this'll all be five thousand miles away
Whoops there goes another day
I'm wishing my life away.
So what are we doing here
Such a long way away from home
We've been away so long
Away so long away from home.
What are we doing here
In a place where we have no friends
All we can do is sit and cry
Let the time drag by and think of home.
Home what a day that will be
The faces of people we love that we'll see
The memories of what we had left will return
The present remains the past is just burned.
And there's only twenty-five days, six hours, and ten minutes
And this'll all be five thousand miles away
Whoops there goes another day
I'm wishing my life away.
Heaven and Hell (Smash Your Head Against the Wall, 1971)
On top of the sky is a place where you go if you've done nothing wrong,
If you've done nothing wrong.
And down in the ground is a place where you go if you've been a bad boy,
If you've been a bad boy.
Why can't we have eternal life,
And never die,
Never die?
In the place up above you grow feather wings and you fly round and round,
With a harp singing hymns.
And down in the ground you grow horns and a tail and you carry a fork,
And burn away.
Why can't we have eternal life, And never die,
Never die?
Ted End (Smash Your Head Against the Wall, 1971)
Someone called the other day
Said old Teddy Greenstreets passed away
They buried him on Saturday,
They said it was a lovely way to go
In his sleep, didn't know a thing
His wife couldn't go
Her second husband took her uptown to a show
His sons and daughters emigrated said,
It cost too much to travel home
Sent a wreath and a sheath.
Isn't it a shame that no one came
The funeral was quiet, but all the same
He's much better off where he is now
Rest in peace, Teddy.

Apron Strings (Whistle Rymes, 1972)
Where am I gonna go?
What am I gonna do?
There's no one to guide me
Now that I'm on my own
I make my own decisions
There's no one behind me.
I do my own talking
Do my own walking
Nobody on which to rely
Do my own lying
Do my own trying
You never let your apron strings untie.
If I said I'm sorry that you've gone
I'd be lying
I feel more sorry for myself
I'm crying, I'm crying.
Wish you'd have let me think
And do for myself
Knowing one day you'd leave me
Knowing one day you'd die
The least you could have done
Is make sure that I could live easy
That I could I do my own talking
Do my own walking
Had a code that I could live by
Do my own lying
Do my own trying
Make sure that I could get by.
If I said I'm sorry that you've gone
I'd be lying
I feel more sorry for myself
I'm crying, I'm crying.
If I said I'm sorry that you've gone
I'd be lying
I feel more sorry for myself
I'm crying, I'm crying.
I Feel Better (Whistle Rymes, 1972)
When I'm feeling blue
I stick a pin in the picture of you
Beside my bed and I feel better
When I'm feeling sad
I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had
And I feel better.
Don't you try to tell me
That I'm to blame
You're the one that ought to feel ashamed
You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed
You didn't even know the fella's name.
When I'm feeling down
I just throw the clothes that you left here around
And I feel better.
When I'm feeling great
It's only because I'm consumed with hate
For you and I feel better.
Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame
When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed
You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed
You didn't even know the fella's name.
When I'm in the mood
I shout all the swear words that you thought were rude
And I feel better
When I feel alone
I make obscene remarks on the telephone
To you and I feel better.
Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame
When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed
You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed
You didn't even know the fella's name.
When I'm feeling blue
I stick a pin in the picture of you
Beside my bed and I feel better
When I'm feeling sad
I remember that you were the worst lay I ever had
And I feel better.
Don't you try to tell me that I'm to blame
When you're the one that ought to feel ashamed
You can't keep an animal that ain't been tamed
You didn't even know the fella's name. |
