I'm Into Something Good
(Gerry Goffin/Carole King)

Woke up this mornin' feelin' fine
There's somethin' special on my mind
Last night I met a new girl in the neighbourhood, oh yeah
Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'

She's the kind of girl who's not too shy
And I can tell I'm her kind of guy
She danced close to me like I hoped she would
She danced with me like I hoped she would
Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'

We only danced for a minute or two
But then she stuck close to me the whole night through
Can I be fall in love
She's everything I've been dreamin' of
She's everything I've been dreamin' of

I walked her home and she held my hand
I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand
So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could
I asked to see her and she told me I could
Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin' - aah

I walked her home and she held my hand
I knew it couldn't be just a one-night stand
So I asked to see her next week and she told me I could
I asked to see her and she told me I could
Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'
Somethin' tells me, I'm into something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'
To something good, oh yeah, something good
Somethin' tells me, I'm into somethin'
To something good, something good, something good ....

Silhouettes
(Slay/Crewe)

Took a walk and passed your house late last night
All the shades were pulled and drawn way down tight
From within, the dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade
Oh, what a lovely couple they made

Put his arms around your waist, held you tight
Kisses I could almost taste in the night
Wondered why I'm not the guy who's silhouette's on the shade
I couldn't hide the tears in my eyes

Oh oh oh ....

Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore
Let me in or else I'll beat down your door
When two strangers who have been two silhouettes on the shade
Said to myself, you're on the wrong block

Rushed out to your house with wings on my feet
Loved you like I'd never loved you my sweet
Vowed that you and I would be two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days, two silhouettes on the shade

Oh oh oh ....

Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter
(Trevor Peacock)

Mrs. Brown, you've got a lovely daughter
Girls as sharp as her are somethin' rare
But it's sad, she doesn't love me now
She's made it clear enough, it ain't no good to pine

She wants to return those things I bought her
Tell her she can keep them just the same
Things have changed, she doesn't love me now
She's made it clear enough it ain't no good to pine

Walkin' about, even in a crowd, well
You'll pick her out, makes a bloke feel so proud

If she finds that I've been round to see you - round to see you
Tell her that I'm well and feelin' fine - feelin' fine
Don't let on, don't say she's broke my heart
I'd go down on my knees but it's no good to pine

Walkin' about, even in a crowd, well
You'll pick her out, makes a bloke feel so proud

If she finds that I've been round to see you - round to see you
Tell her that I'm well and feeling fine - feeling fine
Don't let on, don't say she's broke my heart
I'd go down on my knees but it's no good to pine

Mrs. Brown, you've got a lovely daughter - lovely daughter
Mrs. Brown, you've got a lovely daughter - lovely daughter ....

I'm Henry The VIII, I Am
(Murray/Weston)

I'm Henry the eighth, I am
Henry the eighth, I am, I am
I got married to the widow next door
She's been married seven times before
And every one was an Henry - Henry
She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam - no Sam
I'm her eighth old man, I'm Henry
Henry the eighth, I am

Second verse, same as the first

I'm Henry the eighth, I am
Henry the eighth, I am, I am
I got married to the widow next door
She's been married seven times before
And every one was an Henry - Henry
She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam - no Sam
I'm her eighth old man, I'm Henry
Henry the eighth, I am

I'm Henry the eighth, I am ....

H-E-N-R-Y
Henry - Henry - Henry - Henry
Henry the eighth, I am, I am
Henry the eighth, I am - yeah

A Must To Avoid
(Sloan/Barri)

She's a must to avoid
A complete impossibility
She's a must to avoid
Better take it from me

You'll think she's a prize at the start - at the start
But take my advice, play it smart - just play it smart
She's nothin' but trouble
Better cut out on the double
Before she gets into your heart

She's a must to avoid
A complete impossibility
She's a must to avoid
Better take it from me

When you stare into her pretty blue eyes - into her eyes
There's no way to see through her disguise - through her disguise
But don't try to love her, 'cause you'll quickly discover
You're trapped in the web of her lies

She's a must to avoid
A complete impossibility
She's a must to avoid
Better take it from me

Her lips look inviting it's true - oh yes it's true
But lots of other guys have felt like you do - felt like you do
She'll build up your hopes and when you need her the most
That's when she'll say goodbye to you

She's a must to avoid
A complete impossibility
She's a must to avoid
Better take it from me

Dandy
(Ray Davies)

Dandy, Dandy
Where you gonna go now? Who you gonna run to?
All your little life you're chasin' all the girls
You can't resist her smile
Uh-hu, you're low down

Dandy, Dandy
Chattin' up the ladies, ticklin' their fancies
Pourin' out your charms to meet your own demands
You turn it off at will
Uh-hu, you're low down

Dandy, Dandy
Knockin' on the back door, climbin' through the window
Hubby's gone away and while the cat's away
The mice are gonna play
Uh-hu, you're low down

Dandy, Dandy, Dandy

Dandy, you know you're moving much too fast
And Dandy, you know you can't escape the past
Look around you and see the people passin' by
And when you're old and grey
You will remember what they said
Two girls are too many
Three's a crowd and four you're dead

Oh Dandy, Dandy
When you gonna give up? Are you feelin' old now?
You always will be free, you don't need no sympathy
A bachelor you will stay
And Dandy, you're all right
You're all right, you're all right
You're all right, you're all right ....

originally performed by 'Kinks' (1966)

No Milk Today
(Graham Gouldman)

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by, don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up two down

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
As music played the faster did we dance
We felt it both at once, the start of our romance

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up two down

No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen

No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day

But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Oh all that's left is a place dark and lonely ....

There's A Kind Of Hush
(Stephens/Reed)

There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love
You know what I mean
Just the two of us and nobody else in sight
There's nobody else and I'm feeling good just holding you tight

So listen very carefully
Closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
I love you, forever and ever

There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love
La la la la la la la ....

So listen very carefully
Come closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
I love you, forever and ever

There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world people just like us are fallin' in love
Yeah, they're fallin' in love - hush
They're fallin' in love - hush

Sleepy Joe
(Carter/Alquist)

Sleepy Joe - sleepy Joe

Rise and shine, sleepy Joe
Now´s the time, don´t you know
To get into a new kind of dream
You´ve been living alone
With no Bell telephone
And you don´t have a shirt that is clean

You can rest your head on the corner of your bed
You can watch the world go by
But you never gonna see what the other people see
If you´re always gonna be a sleepy Joe.

Rise and shine, sleepy Joe
There are places to go
There are windows to clean on the way
You´ve got nothing to loose
But a shine on your shoes
Do the best things you can every day

You can get upset, at the way the people get
You can turn your back on the crowd
But you never gonna see what is absolutely real
If you´re always gonna be a sleepy Joe

La la la .... sleepy Joe ....

Rise and shine, sleepy Joe
Now´s the time, don´t you know
To get into a new kind of dream
You´ve been living alone
With no Bell telephone
And you don´t have a shirt that is clean

La la la .... sleepy Joe ....

Rise and shine, sleepy Joe
There are places to go
There are windows to clean on the way
You´ve got nothing to loose
But a shine on your shoes
Do the best things you can every day

La la la .... sleepy Joe ....

Something's Happening
(Turco/Bigazza/Fishman)

Something is happening
And it started happening when you walked by-y-y
Something is happening
And it's changing everything, do you know why-y-y

Soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
The world over it's always happening
The same sort of thing to others too
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Something is happening
Exiting, bewildering, you must know why-y-y
Something is happening
I can't think of anything but you and I-I-I
What begins, these are the notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't tell whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Ay - ay - ay - ay, ay - ay - ay - ay

Soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
The world over it's always happening
The same sort of thing to others too
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Ay - ay - ay - ay, ay - ay - ay - ay

What begins, these are the notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't tell whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Doo-doot, doo-doot, doo-doot-doot, doo-doot ....
