Karauke song book – singers version 2014-04-12 2 / 84 9-5 – Dolly Parton

[instrumental intro - wait for the band to count you in]

Tumble out of bed and I stumble in the kitchen, Pour myself a cup of ambition And yawn and stretch and try to come to life. Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumping, Out on the street the traffic starts jumping With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5.

[chorus] Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living, Barely getting by, it’s all taking and no giving, They just use your mind and they never give you credit, It’s enough to make you crazy if you let it.

9 to 5, for service and devotion, You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion, Want to move ahead but the boss won’t seem to let me, I swear sometimes, that man is out to get me.

They let you dream just to watch them shatter, You’re just a step on the boss man’s ladder, But you’ve got dreams he’ll never take away. You’re in the same boat with a lot of your friends, Waiting for the day your ship’ll come in The tide's gonna turn and it’s all gonna roll your way.

Working 9 to 5, yeah they’ve got you where they want you, There’s a better life, and you dream about it don’t you, It’s a rich man’s game, no matter what they call it, And you spend your life putting money in his pocket.

[repeat chorus]

And if I should falter Would you open your arms out to me We can make love not war And live in peace with our hearts

Karauke song book – singers version 2014-04-12 5 / 84 Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life – Monty Python Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse When you've chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best And... [chorus] Always look on the bright side of life [whistle] Always look on the light side of life [whistle]

If life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly chumps Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing

[repeat chorus]

For life is quite absurd… and death's the final word You must always face the curtain… with a bow Forget about your sin… give the audience a grin Enjoy it… it's your last chance anyhow

So.always look on the bright side of death [whistle] Just before you draw your terminal breath [whistle]

Life's a piece of shit… when you look at it Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true You'll see it's all a show Keep 'em laughing as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you

[instrumental intro - wait for the band to count you in]

I guess now it's time for me to give up I feel it's time. Got a picture of you beside me Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup. Oh yeah Got a fist of pure emotion, Got a head of shattered dreams Gotta leave it… gotta leave it all behind now

[chorus] Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it I just want you back for good want you back, want you back, want you back for good Whenever I'm wrong justtell me the song and I'll sing it You'll be right and understood want you back, want you back want you back for good

Unaware but underlined I figured out the story No, no It wasn't good. No No But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory But that was not to be In the twist of separation you excelled at being free Can't you find a little room inside for me

[repeat chorus]

And we'll be together… (together) This time is forever We'll be fighting and forever we will be So complete in our love We will never be uncovered again

[repeat chorus]

[single strums] I guess now it’s time that you came back for good

I see the bad moon rising, I see trouble on the way I see earthquakes and lightning, I see bad times today

Do you have the time, To listen to me whine About nothing and everything all at once I am one of those, Melodramatic fools Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I’m cracking up Am I just paranoid, Am I just stoned?

[Instrumental Break – wait for the band]

I went to a shrink, To analyze my dreams She says it’s lack of sex that’s bringing me down I went to a whore, He says my life’s a bore So quit my whining ‘cause it’s bringing her down

Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I’m cracking up Am I just paranoid, Am I just stoned?

[Instrumental Break – wait for the band]

Grasping to control...... So I better hold on

[Instrumental verse] (X2)

Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I’m cracking up Am I just paranoid, Am I just stoned?

[instrumental intro - wait for the band to count you in]

She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge She studies sculpture at St. Martin’s College That’s where I caught her eye She told me that her dad was loaded I said "In that case I’ll have a rum and coca-cola" She said "fine" and in a thirty seconds time she said

I want to live like common people I want to do whatever common people do I want to sleep with common people I want to sleep with common people like you Well what else could I do? I said "I’ll see what I can do"

I took her to a supermarket I don’t know why but I had to start it some where So it started there I said "Pretend you’ve got no money" She just laughed and said "Oh, you’re so funny" I said "Yeah, well I can’t see someone else smiling in here

Are you sure you want to live like common people You want to see whatever common people see You want to sleep with common people You want to sleep with common people likeme But she didn’t understand, she just smiled and held my hand

Rent a flat above your shop, cut your hair and get a job Smoke some fags and play some pool, pretend you never went to school But still you’ll never get it right, Coz when you’re laid in bed at night watching roaches climb the wall, if you called your dad he could stop it all

You’ll never live like common people You’ll never do whatever common people do You’ll never fail like common people You’ll never watch your life slide out of view And dance and drink and screw because there’s nothing else to do

[Instrumental verse – wait for the band]

Sing along with the common people, Sing along and it might just get you thru? Laugh along with the common people Laugh along even though they are laughing at you And the stupid things that you do Because you think that poor is cool

I want to live with common people like you [x6 building up] Yooou La la la la la Yooou La la la la la Yooou La la la la la like you

Now he lives in a house, a very big house in the country Watching afternoon repeats And the food he eats in the country He takes all manner of pills And piles up analyst bills in the country Oh, it’s like an animal farm Lots of rural charm in the country

He’s got morning glory, & life’s a different story Everything’s going Jackanory In touch with his own mortality He’s reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac It’s a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully Bland, oh, it’s the centuries remedy For the faint at heart, a new start

He lives in a house, a very big house in the country He’s got a fog in his chest so he needs a lot of rest in the country He doesn’t drink, smoke, laugh he takes herbal baths in the country oh, it’s like animal farm but you’ll come to no harm, in the country

In the country, In the country, In the country!

Blow, blow me out I am so sad I don’t know why Blow, blow me out I am so sad I don’t know why

Now he lives in a house, A very big house in the country Watching afternoon repeats And the food he eats in the country He takes all manner of pills And piles up analyst bills in the country Oh, it’s like an animal farm Lots of rural charm in the country [repeat this chorus]

I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way I ain't nothing but tired man I'm just tired and bored with myself Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

Messages keep getting clearer radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place I check my look in the mirror wanna change my clothes my hair my face Man I ain't getting nowhere I'm just living in a dump like this There's something happening somewhere Baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire, even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me I'll shake this world off my shoulders come on baby the laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town, and they'll be carving you up all right They say you gotta stay hungry, hey Baby, I'm just about starving tonight I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting ‘round here trying to write this book I need a love reaction, come on baby give me just one look

You can't start a fi-re sitting round crying over a broken heart This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind She was my woman As she deceived me, I watched and went out of my mind

My my my Delilah Why why why Delilah? I could see that girl was no good for me But I was lost like a slave, that no man could free

[Instrumental - wait for the band]

At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door She stood there laughing Then I saw the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

My my my Delilah Why why why Delilah? So before they come to break down the door Forgive me Delilah I just couldn’t take any more

Forgive me Delilah I just couldn’t take any more

[instrumental intro – wait for the band to count you in Slip inside the eye of your mind Don't you know you might find, a better place to play You said that you'd never been But all the things that you've seen, slowly fade away

So I start a revolution from my bed, ‘Cause you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside the summertime’s in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face ‘Cause you ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out So Sally can wait, she knows it’s too late As we’re walking on by. Her soul slides away,But don’t look back in anger I heard you say

Take me to the place where you go, Where nobody knows, if it’s night or day Please don’t put your life in the hands Of a rock and roll bandwho’ll throw it all away

Gonna start a revolution from my bed, ‘Cause you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside the summertime’s in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face ‘Cause you ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out So Sally can wait, she knows it’s too late As we’re walking on by. My soul slides away,But don’t look back in anger I heard you say

[Instrumental / solo – wait for the band]

So Sally can wait, she knows it’s too late As we’re walking on by. Her soul slides away,But don’t look back in anger I heard you say.

[slowly] But don’t look back in anger Don’t look back in anger

I heard you say... at least not today

Just a small town girl living in a lonely world She took the midnight train going anywhere Just a city boy born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train going anywhere

A singer in a smoky room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night, it goes on and on and on and on

Strangers… waiting… up and down the boulevard Their shadows… searching in the night Streetlight… people… living just to find emotion Hiding… somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fill… everybody wants a thrill Paying anything to roll the dice just one more time

Some will win… some will lose… some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends… it goes on and on and on and on

Strangers… waiting… up and down the boulevard Their shadows… searching in the night Streetlight… people… living just to find emotion Hiding… somewhere in the night

Don’t stop… believing hold on to the feeling Streetlight people

Don’t stop… believing hold on to the feeling Streetlight people

And so you’re back, from outers pace I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key If I had known for just one second you’d be back to bother me.

Go on now go! walk out the door, Just turn around now, cause you’re not welcome anymore Weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbyes? Did you think I’d crumble?

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart, Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart. And I spentoh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high...

And you see me, somebody new; I’m not that chained up little person still in love with you. And so you felt like dropping in, and just expect me to be free And now I’m savin’ all my lovin’ for someone who’s lovin’ me.

Go on now go, walk out the door, Just turn around now, cause you’re not welcome anymore Weren’t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbyes? Did you think I’d crumble?

Karauke song book – singers version 2014-04-12 46 / 84 Love Is In The Air - John Paul Young

(instrumental intro - wait for the band to count you in:)

Love is in the air, everywhere I look around, Love is in the air, every sight and every sound. And I don't know if I'm being foolish, Don't know if I'm feeling wise. But it's something that I must believe in, And it's there when I look in your eyes.

Love is in the air, in the whisper of a tree, Love is in the air, in the thunder of the sea. And I don't know if I am just dreaming, Don't hear if I'm feeling safe. But it's something that I must believe in, And it's there when you call out my name. [chorus] Love is in the air, Love is in the air. Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, love is in the air, in the rising of the sun, Love is in the air, when the day is nearly done. But I don't know if you're an illusion, [single strums] Don't know if I see the truth, But it's something that I must believe in, and you're there when I reach out for you.

Love is in the air, everywhere I look around, Love is in the air, every sight and every sound. And I don't know if I'm being foolish, [single strums] Don't know if I'm feeling wise. But it's something that I must believe in, And it's there when I look in your eyes.

[repeat chorus]

Love is in the air, Love is in the air. Ooh

If I can make it there I’ll make it anywhere Come on through New York New Yooooooooork

I know I'd stand in line, until you think you have the time to spend an evening with me And if we go some place to dance I know that there's a chance you won't be leaving with me

Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two

And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like "I love you"

I can see it in your eyes, you still despise the same old lies you heard the night before

And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true and never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever lines to say to make the meaning come true

But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late and I'm alone with you

The time is right your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and oh the night's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid like: "I love you"

[instrumental break – wait for the band]

[verse 1] I've been waiting for so long Now I've finally found someone to stand by me We saw the writing on the wall As we felt this magical Fantasy Now with passion in our eyes There's no way we could disguise it secretly So we take each other's hand 'cause we seem to understand the urgency Just remember

[pre-chorus] You're the one thing I can't get enough of So I'll tell you something this could be love because

[chorus] I've had the time of my life No I never felt this way before Yes I swear it's the truth And I owe it all to you

Karauke song book – singers version 2014-04-12 70 / 84 Time Warp - Rocky Horror Show It's astounding, time is fleeting Madness takes its toll But listen closely, not for very much longer I've got to keep control

I remember doing the Time Warp Drinking those moments when The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling Let's do the time warp again Let's do the time warp again

[chorus] It's just a jump to the left And then a step to the right With your hands on your hips You bring your knees in tight But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane

Let's do the time warp again Let's do the time warp again

It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me So you can't see me, No not at all In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention Well-secluded , I see all

With a bit of a mind flip, you're into the time slip And nothing can ever be the same You're spaced out on sensation, like you're under sedation Let's do the time warp again Let's do the time warp again

Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink He shook me up, he took me by surprise He had a pickup truck and the devil's eyes. He stared at me and I felt a change Time meant nothing, never would again

Let's do the time warp again Let's do the time warp again

Karauke song book – singers version 2014-04-12 71 / 84 Tenacious D - Tribute

(spoken) This is the greatest and best song in the world... Tribute. Long time ago me and my brother Kyle here, We was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road. All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon... In the middle of the road. And he said:

"Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your souls." Well me and Kyle, we looked at each other, And we each said... "Okay"

And we played the first thing that came to our heads, Just so happened to be, The Best Song in the World, it was The Best Song in the World.

Look into my eyes and it's easy to see One and one make two, two and one make three, It was destiny. Once every hundred-thousand years or so, When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow And the grass don't grow...

Needless to say, the beast was stunned. Whip-crack went his schwumpy tail, And the beast was done. He asked us: "Be you angels?" And we said, "Nay. We are but men!" ROCK! Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah, Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh!

This is not The Greatest Song in the World. No, this is just a tribute. Couldn't remember The Greatest Song in the World. No, this is a tribute, oh.

To The Greatest Song in the World, All right! It was The Greatest Song in the World, All right! It was the best muthafuckin' song The greatest song in the world.

[solo]

(spoken) And the peculiar thing is this my friends: The song we sang on that fateful night, It didn't actually sound anything like this song.

This is just a tribute! You gotta' believe me! And I wish you were there! Just a matter of opinion. Ah, fuck! Good God, God lovin', So surprised to find you can't stop it.

All right! All right!

He was long gone, when he met me And I realize, the joke is on me, yeah

[repeat chorus] 'cause I knew...

Did you have to go to jail? Put your house on up for sale? Did you get a good lawyer? I hope you didn’t catch a tan. I hope you find the right man who’ll fix it for you. Are you shopping anywhere? Changed the colour of your hair? Are you busy? And did you have to pay the fine you were dodging all the time? Are you still dizzy?

I saw the ghost of Elvis On U-u-union Avenue Followed him up to the gates of Graceland Then I watched him walk right through Now, security they did not see him They just hovered round his tomb But there's a pretty little thing… waiting for the King Down in the jungle room

[chorus]

Put on my blue suede shoes and I Boarded the plane Touched down in the land of the Delta blues In the middle of the pouring rain Touched down in the land of the Delta blues In the middle of the pouring rain
