Transport of Delight

Some talk of a LagondaSome like a smart MGOr for bonny army lorryThey’d lay them down and deeSuch means of locomotionSeem rather dull to usThe Driver and Conductor ofA London OmnibusHold very tight please, ting ting!Hold very tight please, ting ting!

If you are lost in LondonAnd you don’t know where you areYou’ll hear my voice a calling“Pass further down the car!”And very soon you’ll find yourself inside the terminusIn a London Transport diesel engine 97 Horse Power Omnibus!

I stops when I’m requested, although it spoils the rideSo he can shout “Get aht of it we’re full right up inside!”

We don’t ask much for wages, we only want fair sharesSo cut down all the stages, and stick up all the fares!If tickets cost ten pounds a piece why should you make a fuss?

It’s worth it just to ride insideThe 30 foot long by 10 foot wideInside that monarch of the roadObserver of the highway codeThat big 6 wheeler, Scarlet paintedLondon Transport Diesel Engine97 Horse Power, 97 Horse Power OmnibusHold very tight please! Ting ting!

Clang clang clang! Went the trolleyDing ding ding went the bellZing zing zing went my heart stringsFrom the moment I saw him I fellChug chug chug went the motorBump bump bump went the brakeThump thump thump went my heart stringsWhen he smiled I could feel the car shake

He tipped his hat and took a seat

He said he hoped he hadn’t stepped upon my feetHe asked my name, I held my breathI couldn’t speak because he scared my half to death.

Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzerPlop plop plop went the wheelsStop stop stop! Went my heart stringsAs he started to go then I started to knowhow it feels when the universe reels.

Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga Choochoo?Track 29 boy you can give me a shineI can afford to board the Chattanooga ChoochooI’ve got my fare and just a trifle to spareYou leave the Pennsylvania Station ‘bout a quarter to fourRead a magazine and then you’re in BaltimoreDinner in the DinerNothing could be finer

Than to have your ham and eggs in CarolinaWhen you hear the whistle blowing 8 to the barThen you know that Tennessee is not very farShovel all the coal in Got to keep it rollingWhoo whoo Chattanooga there you are!There’s going to be a certain party at the stationSatin and Lace I used to call funny faceShe’s gonna cry until I tell her that I’ll never roamSo Chatanooga Choochoo won’t you choo choo me home!

Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying MachinesThey go up diddly up upThey go down diddly own downThey enchant all the ladies and steal all the scenesWith their up diddly up up And their down diddly own down.Up. Down. Flying aroundLooping the loop and defying the groundThey’re all frightfully keen Those Magnficent Men in Their Flying Machines

They can fly upside down with their feet in the airThey don’t think of danger they don’t really careNewton would think he had made a mistakeTo see those young men and the chances they take!

Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying MachinesThey go up diddly up upThey go down diddly own downThey enchant all the ladies and steal all the scenes With their up diddly up up And their down diddly own down.

Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?

We could float among the stars together you and IOr we can fly!Up up and away in my beautifulMy beautiful balloon

The world’s a nicer place in my beautiful balloonIt wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloonWe can sing a song and sail along the silver skyOr we can flyUp up and away in my beautifulMy beautiful balloonBalloon, Balloon, Balloon, Balloon!

The Lightning Tree

VERSE 1

Down in the meadow where the wind blows freeIn the middle of a field stands a Lightning TreeIts limbs all torn from the day it was bornFor the tree was born in a thunderstorm

CHORUSGrow, grow the Lightning TreeIt’s never too late for you and meGrow, grow the Lightning TreeNever give in too easily

VERSE 2

Down in the meadow where the wind blows rightThe lightning struck in the middle of the nightIts limbs stripped bare by the lightning flareThe lightning flare was a wild affair

CHORUSGrow, grow the Lightning TreeIt’s never too late for you and meGrow, grow the Lightning TreeNever give in too easily

Na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na na!

VERSE 3

Down in the meadow here the wind blows coldThe Lightning Tree stands stiff and oldBranches bent by the lightning rentThe lightning rent from the firmament

CHORUSGrow, grow the Lightning TreeIt’s never too late for you and meGrow, grow the Lightning TreeNever give in too easily

VERSE 4

Down in the meadow with the wind in the WestThe Lightning Tree faced up to the testIts heart went snap when it took the rapThe terrible rap of the thunder clap!

CHORUSGrow, grow the Lightning TreeIt’s never too late for you and meGrow, grow the Lightning TreeNever give in too easily

Na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na na!

VERSE 5

Down in the meadow where the wind blows freeA whisper of green in the Lightning Tree Dreams come true when you want them toIf you want them to it’s up to you

CHORUSGrow, grow the Lightning TreeIt’s never too late for you and meGrow, grow the Lightning TreeNever give in too easily

Double repeat (na na na...)

Utter Madness

I’ve been driving in my carIt’s not quite a JaguarI bought it in Primrose HillFrom a bloke from BrazilIt was made in ‘59In a factory by the Tyne

It says Morris on the doorThe GPO owned it beforeI drive in it for my jobThe governor calls me a slobBut I don’t really careGive me some gas and the open air

Father wears his Sunday BestMother’s tired she need a restThe kids are playing up downstairsSister’s sighing in her sleep (ahh)Brother’s got a date to keepHe can’t hang around

Our house in the middle of our streetOur house in the middle of our

Our house it has a crowdThere’s always something happeningAnd it’s usually quite loudOur mum she’s so house proudNothing ever slows her downAnd a mess is not allowed

Our house in the middle of our streetOur house in the middle of ourOur house in the middle of our streetOur house in the middle of ourOur house was our castle and our keepOur house in the middle of our...

I tell you I didn’t do it‘cause I wasn’t thereDon’t blame me, it just isn’t fairYou listened to their sideNow listen to mineCan’t think of a storySure you’ll find me sometime

Now pass the blame and don’t blame meJust close your eyes and count to three(One, two three)Then I’ll be gone and you’ll forgetThe broken window TV set

I never thought I’d miss youHalf as much as I doAnd I never thought I’d feel this way, The way I feel about you

Soon as I wake up every night every dayI know that it’s you I need to take the blues away

It must be love, love, loveIt must be love, love, loveNothing more, nothing less, love is the best

One step beyond!

My girl’s mad at meI didn’t want to see the film tonightI found it hard to sayShe thought I’d had enough of herWhy can’t she seeShe’s lovely to meBut I like to stay in and watch TV on my own every now and then

Lots of girls and lots of boysLots of smells and lots of noisePlaying football in the parkKicking pushbikes after darkBaggy trousers, dirty shirtPulling hair and eating dirtTeacher comes to break it upBack of the ‘ead with a plastic cup

Oh what fun we hadBut did it really turn out bad?All I learnt at schoolWas how to bend not break the rulesOh what fun we hadBut at the time it seemed so badTrying different ways to make a difference to the days

Baggy Trousers X 13

Invincible

Hear those drumsFeel our heats grow stronger,See the crowds draw nearFears dissolve our heads held high, To dream the dreamTo feel the fight Ah!United strong, forever faithful Ah!

To dream the dreamTo feel the fight Ah!United strong, forever faithful Ah!To dream the dream of victory, We feel the fight that drives us on to victory!

Pop Medley 2016

Standing in a crowded room and I can’t see your face

Put your arms around me, tell me everything’s OK

In my mind, I’m running round a cold and empty space

Just put your arms around me, tell me everything’s OK

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh

Break my bones but you won’t see me fall, ohThe rising tide will rise against them all, oh

Darling hold my handOh, won’t you hold my hand?Cause I don’t wanna walk on my own any more won’t you understand? Cause I don’t wanna walk alone

I’m ready for this, there’s no denyingI’m ready for this, you stop me fallingI’m ready for this, I need you all inI’m ready for this, so darling, hold my hand

The garden was blessed by the Gods of me and youWe headed West for to find ourselves some truth, ohWhat you waiting for? NoWhat are you waiting for?

We counted all the reasons, excuses that we madeWe found ourselves some treasure and threw it all away, ohWhat are you waiting for? NoWhat are you waiting for?What are you waiting for? NoWhat are you waiting for?

When I dance alone, and the sun’s beating down, blame it on meWhen I lose control and the veil’s overused, blame it on meWhen I dance alone, I’ll know I’ll goBlame it on me ohWhat are you waiting for? NoWhat are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? NoWhat are you waiting for?

When my hair’s all but gone and my memory fadesAnd the crowds don’t remember my nameWhen my hands don’t play the strings the same way (mmm...)I know you will still love me the same

‘Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it’s evergreenAnd baby your smile’s forever in my mind and memoryI’m thinking ‘bout howPeople fall in love in mysterious waysMay be it’s all part of a planWell, I’ll just keep on making the same mistakesHoping that you’ll understand

That baby nowTake me into your loving armsKiss me under the light of a thousand starsPlace your head on my beating heartI’m thinking out loudMay be we found love right where we are

Oh I can see the futureComing to youCrying with the sadness in your eyesAnd I can find a faith in years I’ve wastedBeing around enough to feel aliveAnd when the world is broken, hard and colder

No one ever know the reason whyFor the ones we may become For the battles we have wonFor the day we wish the sunGonna play it loud tonight

When you dream of a dreamAnd you live in the worldEvery hope is a hopeFor the best don’t want you rest on my bonesAnd you’re calling me nowI will see you all the timeShould be out there living the lifeAnd not just watching oh

Take me back Before we all explodeBefore we turn to stoneBefore the light is goneTake me backTo where it all beganTo where our memories growBefore the day goes off

Tonight gonna live forGone live for these daysTonight we’ll remember We’ll remember these days

Everything is awesomeEverything is cool when you’re part of a teamEverything is awesomeWhen you’re living our dream

Everything is better when we stick togetherSide by side you and I Gonna win forever let’s party foreverWe’re the same I’m like you, you’re like meWe’re all working in harmony
