Well I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn, one big eye.
I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
It looks like a purple people eater to me.

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater.
(one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)
A one-eyed one-horned,flyin' puple people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (one eye?)

Well he came down to earth and lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple People Eater don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn't eat you 'cos you're so tough

It was a one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
one-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (one horn?)

I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line
He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band

Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flying purple people eater.
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater
(we wear short shorts) Flyin' purple people eater
sure looks strange to me.

And then he swung from the tree and lit on the ground.
He started to rock, really rockin' around
It was a crazy little ditty with a swingin' tune
(sing awop bop aloo bop lop bam boom)

Well, bless my soul, rock and roll
flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater.
Flyin' little people eater
Sure looks strange to me. (purple people?)

And then he went on his way, and then what do you know.
I saw him last night on a TV show.
He was blowing it out, a 'really knockin' em dead
Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head

Tequila!

Lucy, you stay here...the tomb is warm
Why don’t you play with the dolls...
The dolls on the wall
I am not the guy I used to be,
Not since he put me away
I left half my brain behind, back in that crazy place
Does that mean...that I am insane
Does that really mean...that I am to blame...no no no

Is it true what they say...little girls don’t cry
Is it true what they say...lucy look at me

I am not the guy I used to be,
Not since he put me away
I left half my brain behind, back in that crazy place
Does that mean...that I am insane
Does that really mean...that I am to blame...no no no

Into the night I go, and you can’t follow me
Into the night I go, and you can’t follow me

I will be your misery, I’m gonna be your hell
I will be your misery, and I wish you well, in hell

I’m digging graves, seven deadly tombs
I’m digging graves, below that crazy moon

I will be your misery, I’m gonna be your hell
I will be your misery, and I wish you well, in hell

Mckenzie, how could you think I’d forget

All graves done...i’m so clever
Seven headstones in all...saying "lucy forever"

I am not the guy I used to be,
Not since he put me away
I left half my brain behind, back in that crazy place
Does that mean...that I am insane
Does that really mean...that I am to blame...no no no

Into the night I go, and you can’t follow me
Into the night I go, and you can’t follow me

I will be your misery, I’m gonna be your hell
I will be your misery, and I wish you well, in hell

I’m digging graves, seven deadly tombs
I’m digging graves, below that crazy moon

Into the night I go, and you can’t follow me...

I have been in here for way too long
And as I walk the halls at night
I see the other inmates hiding from my eyes
This is for the mentally ill
For those who have lost the will

I have seen the sickness of all mankind
And as I walk the halls at night
I see the other inmates hiding from my eyes

This is for the mentally ill
For those who have lost the will

Black hill sanitarium... they’re driving me crazy
Black hill sanitarium... they’re driving me crazy here

Gotta get out of here... gotta erase the fear
Gotta get out of here... no more silent tears
Gotta get out of here... no more silent tears

Black hill sanitarium... they’re driving me crazy

I am going down, deep into the black of my mind
I’ve had enough
Therapy in little rooms, I’m lying down in my cocoon
Nothing here could end too soon, I’m lying down
Oh god, I hate those men in white

Oh, those men in white, sticking needles in my mind

And as I walk the halls at night
I see the other inmates hiding from my eyes

This is for the mentally ill
For those who have lost the will

Black hill sanitarium... they’re driving me crazy
Black hill sanitarium... they’re driving me crazy here

Gotta get out of here... gotta erase the fear
Gotta get out of here... no more silent tears

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon-dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon-dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you

Love me with all of your heart
That's all I want, love
Love me with all of your heart
Or not at all
Just promise me this
That all you'll give me
All your kisses
Every winter
Every summer
Every fall

When we are far apart
Or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart
As I love you
Don't give me your love
For a moment
Or an hour
Love me always
As you loved me
From the start
With every beat of your heart
With every beat of your heart

When we are far apart
Or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart
As I love you
Don't give me your love
For a moment
Or an hour
Love me always
As you loved me
From the start
When we are far apart
Or when you're near me
Love me with all of your heart
As I love you
Don't give me your love
For a moment
Or an hour
Love me always
As you loved me
From the start
With every beat of your heart
With every beat of your heart
With every beat of your heart
With every beatof your heart

Amor estoy solo agui en la playa
Es el sol quien que me acompana
Y me quema, y me quema, y me quemara

Cuando calienta el sol aqui en la playa
Siento tu cuerpo vibrar cerca de mi

Es tu palpitar, es tu cara, es tu pelo
Son tus besos, me estremezco (Oh oh oh)
Cuando calienta el sol

Cuando calienta el sol aqui en la playa
Siento tu cuerpo vibrar cerca de mi

Es tu palpitar, tu recuerdo, mi locura
Mi delirio, me estremezco (Oh oh oh)
Cuando calienta el sol
Cuando calienta el sol

 

(In Napoli where love is king
When boy meets girl here's what they say)

When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine
That's amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You're in love
When you walk down in a dream but you know you're not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That's amore

Georgia-Georgia
The whole day through
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
I said Georgia-Georgia
A song of you comes as sweet and clear as moon light through the pines
Other arms reach out to me, Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see the road leads back to you
I said Georgia-Oh Georgia
No peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
Oh her arms reach out to me, Oh her eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see the road leads back to you.
Ohhhh Georgia-Georgia
No peace-no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
I said just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind

Your green eyes with their soft light
Your eyes that promise sweet nights
Bring to my soul a longing
A thirst for love divine

In dreams I seemed to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips met and our hearts too
With a thrill so sublime

Those cool and limpid green eyes
A pool wherein my love lies
So deep that in my searching for happiness
I fear that they will ever haunt me
All though my life they'll taunt me
But will they ever want me?

Green Eyes
make my dreams come true!!

Soft lights
And eyes that promise sweet nights
Bring to my soul a longing
A thirst for love divine

In dreams I seemed to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips met and our hearts too
With a thrill so sublime

Those cool and limpid green eyes
A pool wherein my love lies
So deep that in my searching for happiness
I fear that they will ever haunt me
All though my life they'll taunt me
But will they ever want me?

Green Eyes I love you!!

Aquellos ojos verdes
de mirada serena,
dejaron en mi alma
eterna sed de amar.
Anhelos y caricias,
de besos y ternuras.
De todas las dulzuras
que sabían brindar.
Aquellos ojos verdes,
serenos como un lago,
en cuyas quietas aguas
un día miraré.
No saben las tristezas
que en mi alma han dejado
Aquellos ojos verdes,
que yo nunca besaré.
No saben las tristezas
que en mi alma han dejado
Aquellos ojos verdes,
que yo nunca olvidaré.
Aquellos ojos verdes,
que yo nunca olvidaré.
Aquellos ojos verdes
serenos como un lago
en cuyas quietas aguas
un día me miré,
no saben las tristezas
que a mi alma le dejaron
aquellos ojos verdes
que ya nunca besaré
------------------

Lindo capullo de aleli
Si tú supieras mi dolor
Correspondieras a mi amor
Y calmaras mi sufrir
Porque tú sabes que sin tí
La vida es nada para mí
Tú bien lo sabes,
Capullito de aleli.

No hay en el mundo para mí
Otro capullo de alelí
Que yo le brinde mi pasión
Y que le dé mi corazón
Porque tú eres la mujer
A quien he dado mi querer
Y te juré lindo alelí
Fidelidad hasta morir.

Por eso yo te canto a tí
Mi capullito de alelí
Dame tu aroma seductor
Y un poquito de tu amor
Porque tú sabes que sin tí
La vida es nada para mí
Tú bien lo sabes
Capullito de alelí

Hey, buddy!
Yes officer..
You a head?
No, but I'm catching up, ha ha ha....

She walks like an angel walks, she talks like an angel talks,
And her hair has a kind of curl, to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
She's wise like an angel's wise, with eyes like an angel's eyes,
And a smile like a kind of pearl, to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
A pretty little face, that face just knocks me off my feet,
A pretty little feet, she's really sweet enough to eat.
She looks like an angel looks, she cooks like an angel cooks,
And my mind in a kind of whirl, to my mind, she's my kind of girl.

[full instrumental interlude]

Hmmm, pretty little face, that face just knocks me off my feet,
Pretty little feet, she's really sweet enough to eat.
She looks like an angel looks, and she cooks like an angel cooks,
And my mind in a kind of whirl, to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
Yes, my poor heart's in a whirl, she's just my kind, she's a girl.
And I'm glad.

Fly me to the moon,
And let me play among the stars.
Let me see what spring is like,
On jupiter and mars.
In other words, hold my hand,
In other words, darling kiss me.

Fill my heart with song,
And let me sing forever more,
You are all I long for,
All I worship and adore,
In other words, please be true,
In other words, I love you.

Me and Mrs. Jones, we got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

We meet ev'ry day at the same cafe,

Six-thirty I know she'll be there,

Holding hands, making all kinds of plans

While the jukebox plays our favorite song.

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones,

Mrs. Jones got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong,

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

We gotta be extra careful that we don't build our hopes too high

Cause she's got her own obligations and so do I,

Me, me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones,

Mrs. Jones got a thing going on,

We both know that it's wrong,

But it's much too strong to let it cool down now.

Well, it's time for us to be leaving,

Iit hurts so much, it hurts so much inside,

Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine,

But tomorrow we'll meet the same place, the same time.

Me and Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones.
