YOU ARE HERE. (1973)
From Liverpool to Tokyo What a way to go From distant lands one woman one man Let the four winds blow
Three thousand miles over the ocean Three thousand light years from the land of the rising sun
Love has opened up my eyes Love has blown right through Wherever you are, you are here Wherever you are, you are here
Three thousand miles over the ocean Three thousand light years from the land of the surprising sun
Well now east is east and west is west The twain shall meet East is west and west is east Let it be complete
Three thousand miles over the ocean Three thousand light years from the land of the morning star

COME TOGETHER. (1969 )
Shoot me Shoot me Shoot me Shoot me
Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller He got hair down to his knee Got to be a joker he just do what he please
Shoot me Shoot me Shoot me Shoot me
He wear no shoeshine, he got toe-jam football He got monkey finger, he shoot coca-cola He say "I know you, you know me" One thing I can tell you is you've got to be free Come together right now over me
He bag production, he got walrus gumboot He got Ono sideboard, he one spinal cracker He got feet... down below his knee Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease Come together right now over me
He roller-coaster, he got early warning He got muddy water, he one mojo filter He say "One and one and one is three" Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see Come together right now over me
Come Together, yeah Come Together, yeah Come Together, yeah Come Together, yeah

IT'S SO HARD. (1971)
You gotta live You gotta love You gotta be somebody You gotta shove But it's so hard, it's really hard Sometimes I feel like going down
You gotta eat You gotta drink You gotta feel something You gotta worry But it's so hard, it's really hard Sometimes I feel like going down
But when it's good It's really good And when I hold you in my arms baby Sometimes I feel like going down
You gotta run You gotta hide You gotta keep your woman satisfied But it's so hard, it's really hard Sometimes I feel like going down

Scared. (1974)
I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared I'm scared, so scared I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared As the years roll away And the price that I paid And the straws slips away
You don't have to suffer It is what it is No bell book or candle Can get you out of this, oh no!
I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred I'm scarred, uh huh I'm scarred, I'm scarred, I'm scarred Every day of my life I just manage to survive I just wanna stay alive
You don't have to worry In heaven or hell Just dance to the music You do it so well, well, well!
Hatred and jealousy, gonna be the death of me I guess I knew it right from the start Sing out about love and peace Don't wanna see the red raw meat The green eyed goddamn straight from your heart
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired Of being so alone No place to call my own Like a rollin' stone

YER BLUES. (1968)
(2,3)
Yes I'm lonely wanna die Yes I'm lonely wanna die If I ain't dead already Ooh girl you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die In the evening wanna die If I ain't dead already Ooh girl you know the reason why.
My mother was of the sky My father was of the earth But I am of the universe And you know what it's worth I'm lonely wanna die If I ain't dead already Ooh girl you know the reason why.
The eagle picks my eye The worm he licks my bone I feel so suicidal Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones Lonely wanna die If I ain't dead already Ooh girl you know the reason why.
Black cloud crossed my mind Blue mist round my soul Feel so suicidal Even hate my rock and roll Wanna die yeah wanna die If I ain't dead already Ooh girl you know the reason why.

INTUITION. ( 1973 )
My intentions are good, I use my intuition It takes me for a ride But I never understood other people's superstitions It seemed like suicide As I play the game of life I try to make it better each and every day, And when I struggle in the night The magic of the music seems to light the way
Ah, Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me everywhere
Well my instincts are fine I had to learn to use them in order to survive And time after time confirmed an old suspicion It's good to be alive, And when I'm deep down and out and lose communication With nothing left to say It's then I realize it's only a condition Of seeing things that way
Ah, Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me anywhere (Takes me anywhere, alright)
Ah, Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me there Intuition takes me there

REMEMBER. (1970)
Remember when you were young How the hero was never hung Always got away Remember how the man Used to leave you empty handed Always, always let you down If you ever change your mind About leaving it all behind Remember, remember, today - hey, hey
And don't feel sorry The way it's gone And don't you worry 'Bout what you've done
Just remember, when you were small How people seemed so tall Always had their way - hey, hey
Do you remember your Ma and Pa Just wishing for movie stardom Always, always playing a part
If you ever feel so sad And the whole world is driving you mad Remember, remember, today - hey, hey
And don't feel sorry 'Bout the way it's gone And don't you worry 'Bout what you've done
No, no, remember, remember The fifth of November

You can shine your shoes and wear a suit You can comb your hair and look quite cute You can hide your face behind a smile One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside
You can wear a mask and paint your face You can call yourself the human race You can wear a collar and a tie One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside
Well now you know that your Cat has nine lives Nine lives to itself But you only got one And a dog's life ain't fun Mamma take a look outside
You can go to church and sing a hymn You can judge me by the color of my skin You can live a lie until you die One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside
Well now you know that your Cat has nine lives Nine lives to itself But you only got one And a dog's life ain't fun Mamma take a look outside
You can go to church and sing a hymn You can judge me by the color of my skin You can live a lie until you die One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside
One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside One thing you can't hide Is when you're crippled inside

I'M LOSING YOU. (1980)
Here in some stranger's room Late in the afternoon What am I doing here at all? Ain't no doubt about it I'm losing you I'm losing you
Somehow the wires got crossed Communication's lost Can't even get you on the telephone Just got to shout about it I'm losing you I'm losing you
Well, here in the valley of indecision I don't know what to do I feel you slipping away I feel you slipping away I'm losing you I'm losing you
Well now, you say you're not getting enough But I remind you of all that bad, bad, bad stuff So what the hell am I supposed to do? Just put a bandaid on it? And stop the bleeding now Stop the bleeding now
I'm losing you I'm losing you Well, well, well
I know I hurt you then But hell, that was way back when Well, do you still have to carry that cross? (drop it) Don't want to hear about it I'm losing you I'm losing you Don't want to lose you now Welllllllll! So long ago

GIVE ME SOME TRUTH. (1971)
I'm sick and tired of hearing things From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth
I've had enough of reading things By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of hope Money for dope Money for rope
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of soap Money for dope Money for rope
I'm sick to death of seeing things From tight-lipped, condescending, mama's little chauvinists All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of watching scenes Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of soap It's money for dope Money for rope
Ah, I'm sick and tired of hearing things from uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of reading things by neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth
