#TheBeatles #NorwegianWood

I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me
She showed me her room, isn’t it good, norwegian wood?

She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around and I noticed there wasn’t a chair

I sat on the rug, biding my time, drinking her wine
We talked until two and then she said, “It’s time for bed”

She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh
I told her I didn’t and crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke I was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire, isn’t it good, norwegian wood?

Owoooooooo
Who’s that I see walkin’ in these woods
Why, it’s Little Red Riding Hood
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood
You sure are looking good
You’re everything a big bad wolf could want
Listen to me

Little Red Riding Hood
I don’t think little big girls should
Go walking in these spooky old woods alone
Owoooooooo

What big eyes you have
The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad
So just to see that you don’t get chased
I think I ought to walk with you for a ways

What full lips you have
They’re sure to lure someone bad
So until you get to grandma’s place
I think you ought to walk with me and be safe

I’m gonna keep my sheep suit on
Until I’m sure that you’ve been shown
That I can be trusted walking with you alone
Owoooooooo

Little Red Riding Hood
I’d like to hold you if I could
But you might think I’m a big bad wolf so I won’t
Owoooooooo!

What a big heart I have-the better to love you with
Little Red Riding Hood
Even bad wolves can be good
I’ll try to be satisfied just to walk close by your side
Maybe you’ll see things my way before we get to grandma’s place

Hey there Little Red Riding Hood
You sure are looking good
You’re everything that a big bad wolf could want
Owoooooooo
I mean baaaaaa
Baaa

#Istanbul (#Not Constantinople) 

#TheFourLads

Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople
Been a long time gone
Old Constantinople’s still has Turkish delight
On a moonlight night

Evr’y gal in Constantinople
Is a Miss-stanbul, not Constantinople
So if you’ve date in Constantinople
She’ll be waiting in Istanbul

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it, I can’t say
(People just liked it better that way)

Take me back to Constantinople
No, you can’t go back to Constantinople
Now it’s Istanbul, not Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That’s nobody’s business but the Turks’

Istanbul!!

Istanbul!!

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it, I can’t say
(People just liked it better that way)

Take me back to Constantinople
No, you can’t go back to Constantinople
Now it’s Istanbul, not Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That’s nobody’s business but the Turks’

‘stanbul!!

#SteelyDan - #Kings

Now they lay his body down 
Sad old men who run this town 
I still recall the way 
He led the charge and saved the day 
Blue blood and rain 
I can hear the bugle playin’ 

CHORUS: 
We seen the last of Good King Richard 
Ring out the past his name lives on 
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher 
Raise up your glass to Good King John 

While he plundered far and wide 
All his starving children cried 
And though we sung his fame 
We all went hungry just the same 
He meant to shine 
To the end of the line 

CHORUS

#SteelyDan #FireInTheHole

I decline to walk the line
They tell me that I’m lazy
Worldly wise, I realize
That everybody’s crazy
A woman’s voice reminds me
To serve and not to speak
Am I myself or just another freak

You know, there’s fire in the hole
And nothin’ left to burn
I’d love to run out now
There’s nowhere left to turn, no no

With a cough, I shake it off
And work around my yellow stripe
Should I hide or eat my pride
Or wait until’ it’s good and ripe
My life is boiling over
It’s happened once before
I wish someone would open up the door

Don’t you know, there’s fire in the hole
And nothin’ left to burn
I’d love to run out now
There’s nowhere left to turn

Don’t you know, there’s fire in the hole
And nothin’ left to burn
I’d love to run out now
There’s nowhere left to turn

#HereToday - #PaulMcCartney

And If I Say I Really Knew You Well
What Would Your Answer Be.
If You Were Here Today.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.

Well Knowing You,
You’d Probably Laugh And Say That We Were Worlds Apart.
If You Were Here Today.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.

But As For Me,
I Still Remember How It Was Before.
And I Am Holding Back The Tears No More.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- I Love You, Ooh-

What About The Time We Met,
Well I Suppose That You Could Say That We Were Playing Hard To Get.
Didn’t Understand A Thing.
But We Could Always Sing.

What About The Night We Cried,
Because There Wasn’t Any Reason Left To Keep It All Inside.
Never Understood A Word.
But You Were Always There With A Smile.

And If I Say I Really Loved You
And Was Glad You Came Along.

If You Were Here Today.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- For You Were In My Song.
Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.
