TOO MANY PEOPLE
By Paul McCartney
Piece of cake!
Too many people going underground,
Too many reaching for a piece of cake.
Too many people pulled and pushed around,
Too many waiting for that lucky break.
That was your first mistake,
You took your lucky break and broke it in two.
Now what can be done for you?
You broke it in two.
Too many people sharing party lines,
Too many people ever sleeping late.
Too many people paying parking fines,
Too many hungry people losing weight.
Too many people preaching practices,
Don't let 'em tell you what you wanna be.
Too many people holding back,
This is crazy, and baby, it's not like me.
That was your last mistake,
I find my love awake and waiting to be.
Now what can be done for you?
She's waiting for me, yeah.
Oh, oh.
THREE LEGS
By Paul McCartney
Well, when I walk, when I walk,
Walk my horse upon a hill (when I walk my horse upon a hill).
Well, when I walk, walk, walk, walk,
Walk my horse upon a hill (when I walk my horse upon a hill).
When I lay me down, will my lover love me still?
A dog is here (a dog is here),
A dog is there (a dog is there),
My dog he got three legs,
But he can't run.
Well, when I thought, well, I thought,
When I thought you was my friend (when I thought that I could call you my friend)
When I thought, well, I thought,
When I thought you was my friend (when I thought that I could call you my friend)
But you let me down, ho,
Put my heart around the bend.
A fly flies in (a fly flies in),
A fly flies out (a fly flies out),
Most flies they got three legs,
But mine got one.
Well, when I fly, when I fly, when I fly,
When I fly above the clouds (when I fly above the man in the crowd).
Oh, when I fly, when I fly, when I fly,
When I fly above the clouds (when I fly above the man in the crowd).
You can knock me down with a feather, yes, you could,
But you know it's not allowed (but you know it's not allowed).
My dog he got three legs, your dog he got none...
RAM ON
By Paul McCartney
"Take one"
"Okay"
Ram on, give your heart to somebody,
Soon, right away, right away.
Ah.
DEAR BOY
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
I guess you never knew, dear boy, what you have found,
I guess you never knew, dear boy,
That she was just the cutest thing around,
I guess you never knew what you have found,
Dear boy.
I guess you never knew, dear boy (my dear boy, dear boy),
That love was there (love was there).
And maybe when you look to hard, dear boy (look to hard),
You never do become aware (come aware),
I guess you never did become aware (love was there),
Dear boy.
When I stepped in, my heart was down and out,
But her love came through and brought me 'round,
Got me up and about.
Dear boy,
Dear boy, dear boy,
Dear boy.
I hope you never know, dear boy (hope you never know, dear boy),
How much you missed (how much you missed, dear boy).
And even when you fall in love, dear boy (even when you fall in love, dear boy),
It won't be half as good as this (half as good as this).
I hope you never know how much you missed,
Dear boy, how much you missed, yeah.
Dear boy.
UNCLE ALBERT / ADMIRAL HALSEY
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
We're so sorry if we caused you any pain.
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But there's no one left at home
And I believe I'm gonna rain.
We're so sorry, but we haven't heard a thing all day,
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But if anything should happen
We'll be sure to give a ring.
"We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day.
We're so sorry, uncle Albert,
But the kettle's on the boil
And we're so eas'ly called away".
Yeah, yeah.
Hands across the water (water), heads across the sky,
Hands across the water (water), heads across the sky.
Admiral Halsey notified me,
He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea.
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and a butter pie.
"Couldn't put it in something else
So I pulled it in the pie, alright!"
Live a little, be a gypsy, get around (get around),
Get your feet up off the ground,
Live a little, get around.
SMILE AWAY
By Paul McCartney
One, two, three, four.
Oh ho!
I was walking down the street the other day,
Who did I meet?
I met a friend of mine and he did say:
"Man, I can smell your feet a mile away".
Ah, who did I meet?
I met a friend of mine and he did say:
"Man, I can smell your teeth a mile away".
HEART OF THE COUNTRY
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
I look high, I look low,
I'm lookin' ev'rywhere I go,
Lookin' for a home in the heart of the country.
I'm gonna move, I'm gonna go,
I'm gonna tell ev'ryone I know,
Lookin' for a home in the heart of the country.
Heart of the country where the holy people grow,
Heart of the country, smell the grass in the meadow,
Wo, wo, wo.
Want a horse, I want a sheep,
I wanna get me a good night's sleep,
Livin' in a home in the heart of the country.
I'm gonna move, I'm gonna go,
I'm gonna tell ev'ryone I know,
Livin' in a home in the heart of the country.
Want a horse, I got a sheep,
I'm gonna get me a good night's sleep,
Livin' in a home in the heart of the country.
I'm gonna move, I'm gonna go,
Gonna tell ev'ryone I know, oo,
In the heart of the country.
MONKBERRY MOON DELIGHT
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
So I sat in the attic, a piano up my nose,
And the wind played a dreadful cantata (cantata, cantata).
Sore was I from a crack of an enemy's hose,
And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato, tomato).
Ketchup (ketchup),
Soup and puree (soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (get left behind).
Ketchup (ketchup),
Soup and puree (soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind).
When a rattle of rats had awoken
The sinews, the nerves and the veins.
My piano was boldly outspoken
In attempts to repeat this refrain.
So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
And I gazed at that terrible sight,
Of two young sters concealed in a barrel,
Suckin' monkberry moon delight!
Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight.
Oh.
Well, I know my banana is older than the rest,
And my hair is a tangled beretta (beretta, beretta).
But I leave my pyjamas to Billy Budapest,
And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter, your letter).
Catch up (catch up),
Catch some kittens (catch the kittens),
Don't get left behind (get left behind).
Catch up (catch up),
Catch kittens (catch the kittens),
Don't get left behind (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind).
"Try some of this, honey!
"What is it?"
EAT AT HOME
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
Come on, little lady,
Lady, let's eat at home.
Come on, little lady,
Lady, let's eat at home.
Eat at home, eat at home.
Come on, little lady,
Lady, let's eat in bed.
Come on, little lady,
Lad, let's eat in bed,
Eat in bed, eat in bed.
Bring the love that you feel for me
Into line of the love I see.
And in the morning you bring to me
Love.
Come on, little lady,
Lady, now don't do that.
Come on, little lady,
Lady, now don't do that (don't do that),
Don't do that, don't do that.
Love.
Oh-oh!
LONG HAIRED LADY
By Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney
Well, well, well, well, well,
Do you love me like you know you ought to do?
Well, well, well, well, well,
Or is this the only thing you want me for?
Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about it for some time,
Sweet little lass you are my long haired lady.
Who's the lady that makes that brief occasional laughter?
She's the lady who wears those flashing eyes.
Who'll be taking her home when all the dancing is over?
I'm the lucky man she will hypnotise.
Long haired lady,
Long haired lady.
Bees are buzzing around my sweet, delectable baby,
Birds are humming about their big surprise.
Who's your favourite person, dear phenomenal lady?
I belong to the girl with the flashing eyes.
Oo-oo-oo.
Ah, love is long, love is long, love is long.
Ah, sing your song, love is long, love is long.
Ah, when you're wrong, love is long, love is long.
Win or lose it, into the soul, love is long, love is long.
Ah, when you're wrong, love is long, love is long.
RAM ON (Reprise)
By Paul McCartney
Ah.
Ram on, give your heart to somebody,
Soon, right away, right away.
Who's that comin' 'round that corner, mm-mm?
Who's that comin' 'round that bend?
THE BACK SEAT OF MY CAR
By Paul McCartney
Speed along the highway,
Honey, I want it my way,
But listen to her daddy's song,
Don't stay out too long.
Oo, we're just busy hiding,
Sitting in the back seat of my car.
Looking for a ride and all about,
Looking for a ride in and out of town,
Strolling around and all about,
Looking for a ride in and out of...
The laser lights are pretty,
We may end up in Mexico City.
But listen to her daddy's song,
Making love is wrong.
Oo, we're just busy riding,
Sitting in the back seat of my car.
For we was only hiding,
Sitting in the back seat of my car.
And when we finished driving,
We can say we were late in arriving.
And listen to her daddy's song,
We believe that we can't be wrong, yeah!
Oh-oh, we believe that we can't be wrong,
Oh-oh, we believe that we can't be wrong,
We can make it to Mexico City,
Sitting in the back seat of my car.
