PIPES OF PEACE
By Paul McCartney
I light a candle to our love,
In love our problems disappear.
But all in all we soon discover
That one and one is all we long to hear.
All 'round the world,
Little children being born to the world.
Got to give them all we can 'til the war is won,
Then will the work be done.
Help them to learn (help them to learn)
Songs of joy instead of burn, baby, burn (burn, baby, burn).
Let us show them how to play the pipes of peace,
Play the pipes of peace.
Help me to learn
Songs of joy instead of burn, baby, burn,
Won't you show me to play (how to play)
The pipes of peace (pipes of peace),
Play the pipes of peace.
What do you say? (what do you say?)
Will the human race be run in a day? (in a day?)
Or will someone save this planet we're playing on?
Is it the only one?
What are we gonna do?
Help them to see (help them to see)
That the people here are like you and me (like you and me).
Let us show them how to play (how to play) the pipes of peace (pipes of peace),
Play the pipes of peace.
SAY SAY SAY
By Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson
Say, say, say what you want,
But don't play games with my affection.
Take, take, take what you need,
But don't leave me with no direction.
All alone, I sit home by the phone,
Waiting for you, baby (baby).
Through the years how can you stand to hear
My pleading for you, dear?
You know I'm crying.
Oo, yeh, yeh.
Now, go, go, go where you want,
But don't leave me here forever.
You, you, you stay away,
So long, dear, I see you never.
What can I do, girl, to get through to you?
'Cause I love you, baby (baby).
Standing here, baptised in all my tears,
Baby, through the years,
You know I'm crying.
Oo.
You got to say, say, say,
Got to say, say, say.
You never ever worry,
And you never shed a tear.
You're saying that my love ain't real,
Just look at my face, these tears ain't drying.
You, you, you can never say,
That I'm not the one who really loves you.
I pray, pray, pray every day
That you'll see things, girl, like I do.
THE OTHER ME
By Paul McCartney
I know I was a crazy fool,
For treating you the way I did.
But something got a hold of me
And I acted like a dustbin lid.
I didn't give second thought
To what the consequence might be.
I really wouldn't be surprised
If you were tryin' to find another me.
'Cause the other me would rather be the glad one,
The other me would rather play the fool.
I wanna be the kind of me
That doesn't let you down as a rule.
I know it doesn't take a lot
To have a little self-control,
But every time that I forgot,
Well, I landed in another hole.
But ev'rytime you pull me out,
I find it harder not to see,
That we can build a better life
If I can try to find the other me, mm-mm.
The other me would rather be the glad one,
Yeh, the other me would rather play the fool.
Said, I wanna be the kind of me
That doesn't let you down as a rule.
But if I ever hurt you,
Well, you know that it's not real.
It's not easy living by yourself,
So imagine how I feel.
I wish that I could take it back,
I'd like to make a diff'rent mode.
And if you let me try again,
I'll have a better attitude.
Well, I know that one and one make two,
And that's what I want us to be.
I really would appreciate it,
If you'd help me find the other me.
Uh-uh, yeah, yeah.
Well, the other me would rather be the glad one,
The other me rather play the fool.
But I wanna be the kind of me
That doesn't let you down as a rule.
KEEP UNDER COVER
By Paul McCartney
Love, I'm gonna pick you up in the morning,
Love, I'm gonna take you out on a journey.
I don't know where I'm going to,
But I know what I've been going through,
Without you by my side.
Oo.
What good is butter if you haven't got bread?
What good is art when it hurts your head?
Might as well be in bed.
Keep under cover 'til the battle has ceased,
Keep out of trouble 'til the prisoners are released.
What good's a puzzle when you haven't a clue?
What good is me when I'm not with you?
Might as well stay in bed.
Keep under cover 'til the clouds disappear,
Keep out of trouble 'til the weather is bright and clear.
Love, I'm gonna pick you up,
I'm gonna take you out.
I don't know what I'm gonna do
But I know what I've been going through,
Without you by my side,
Without you by my side.
What good is tennis when there isn't a ball?
What good's a curtain without a call?
Might as well be in bed.
Love, I'm gonna pick you up (I'm gonna pick you up),
I'm gonna take you out (yes, I'll be taking you out).
I don't know what I'm gonna do,
But I know what I've been going through,
Without you by my side (without you by my side),
Without you by my side.
Keep under cover...
SO BAD
By Paul McCartney
There is a pain inside my heart,
You mean so much to me,
Girl, I love you,
Girl, I love you so bad.
And if you leave, my pain will go,
But that's no good to me.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.
Well, it feels so good,
Sometimes it feels so bad,
This is worse than anything I've ever had.
There was a pain, but now you're here,
And I don't fear a thing.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.
And she said:
"Boy, I love you,
Boy, I love you so bad".
(I love) Girl, I love you,
(I love) Girl, I love you so bad (I love, I love).
There was a pain, but now you're near,
And I don't fear a thing (I love).
Girl, I love you (I love),
Girl, I love you so bad (I love, I love).
And she said (I love):
"Boy, I love you (I love),
Boy, I love you so bad".
Bad, bad, ooh, yeah.
THE MAN
By Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson
There's a man,
Who plays the game of life so well,
Oo, there's such a man,
His thoughts you can never tell.
Oo, and it's just the way he thought it would be,
'Cause the day has come for him to be free,
Then he laughs, he kicks, then rolls up his sleeves,
I'm alive and I'm here forever,
This is the man.
There's a man,
Ev'rybody thought they knew,
Oo, there's such a man,
He's not like me and you.
Oo, and it's just the way she thought it would be,
And he says, "Something has happened to me".
Then he laughs, he kicks and rolls up his sleeves,
I'm alive and I'm here forever,
This is the man.
Did you know,
This man can do anything?
Oo, there's such a man,
I wish that we could bring.
This is the man, oh yeah, oh yeah,
This is the man,
This is the man, this is the man, this is the man.
This is the man.
SWEETEST LITTLE SHOW
By Paul McCartney
Well, they can treat you like a brother,
Yeah, they can treat you like a clown.
But if they treat you like a lover,
They've got the sweetest little show in town.
You got the sweetest (sweetest little show),
Sweetest (sweetest little show),
Sweetest little show in town.
You've been around a long time,
But you're still good for a while.
And if they try to criticise you,
Make them smile, make 'em smile.
And if they treat you like a brother,
Well, you will never, never let them down.
But if they treat you like a lover,
They've got the sweetest little show in town
They've got the sweetest (sweetest little show),
Sweetest (sweetest little show),
Sweetest little show in town.
You got the sweetest little show,
Sweetest little show,
Sweetest little show in town.
AVERAGE PERSON
By Paul McCartney
Look at the average person,
Speak to the man in the street.
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?
Well, I'm talking to a former engine driver (driver),
Trying to find out what he used to do.
Tells me that he always kept his engine (engine)
Spit and polished up, as good as new.
But he said his only great ambition
Was to work with lions in a zoo (oh, to work with lions in a zoo?)
Yes, dear, you heard right,
Told me his ambition was to work with lions ev'ry night
Yeah, yeah...
Look at the average person,
Speak to the man on the beat.
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?
Well, I met a woman working as a waitress (waitress),
I asked exactly what it was she did.
Said she worked the summer crowd at seasides (seasides),
Winter time she ran away and hid.
Once she had a Hollywood audition,
But the part was given to a kid (yes, the part was given to a kid).
Yes, sir, you heard right,
Hollywood ambition made a starlet grown up overnight.
I know someone, an engine driver,
I know someone who'd been a boxer,
I know for sure, I know, I know, I know that they are super!
Well, I bumped into a man who'd been a boxer (boxer),
Asked him what had been his greatest night.
He looked into the corners of his mem'ry (mem'ry),
Searching for a picture of the fight.
But he said he always had a feeling
That he lacked a little extra height (could have used a little extra height).
Yes, mate, you heard right,
He always had a feeling that he might have lacked a little height.
Look at the average person,
Speak to the man in the queue.
Can you imagine the first one is you?
Look at the average person.
HEY HEY
By Paul McCartney and Stanley Clarke
Hey, hey.
That's all!
TUG OF PEACE
By Paul McCartney
(It's a tug of war)
No, no, your troubles cease
When you learn to play the pipes of peace.
(It's a tug of war)
No, no, your troubles cease
When you learn to play the pipes of peace.
What with one thing and another it's a tug of war.
(No, no, no, no)
It's a tug of war, wo, wo.
No, no, your troubles cease
You learn to play the pipes of peace.
(It's a tug of war, wo, wo)
Learn to play the pipes of peace.
We wasted time and again,
On things, things we already knew.
Born to do, I give my love to you.
Whenever you get some time,
Whenever you get some time,
I'd like to roll it all up in ball,
And spend it with you.
You've got the power of love
And love has the power to make it come true.
We can go through our love,
We can do things that they said were impossible.
Through our love,
We can do all that we want to do.
We can go through our love,
We can go through our love.
Yeah.
Whenever you will be mine,
Whenever you will be mine,
I wanna to be with you,
Just wanna do whatever feels right.
You've got the power of love
And love has the power to turn on the light.
Here we go through our love,
We can see things that they said were invisible.
Through our love,
We can see where we are going to.
We're going through our love,
Through our love we can learn to do things
That they said were impossible.
Through our love,
We can be blessed with a better view.
We can go through our love,
We can go through our love,
We can go through our love.
