BIG FUN
By
Barry Manilow

***************

The night is glamorous
The weekend is ahead of us
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
Well I can hardly wait
The skyline shines like heaven’s gate

And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
Here comes Big Fun

I’m steppin’ out with a special one
Here comes Big Fun
Got through the week somehow
We’ll kiss like this
Catch up on all the romance we missed
Here comes Big Fun
We’re gonna have it now
The workday’s dead and gone
The girls are putting make-up on

And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun

Around the neighborhood
We concentrate on looking good
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
And we’re ready for it honey
Big Fun
Here comes Big Fun

I’m steppin’ out with a special one
Here comes Big Fun
Got through the week somehow
We’ll kiss like this
Catch up on all the romance we missed
Here comes Big Fun
We’re gonna have it now
A thundering dance beat
Spills into the big street

This is Big Fun
The crowds are peaking
And horns are beeping
This is Big Fun
We run through the door
Stampede the dance floor
This is Big Fun
We’re flying non-stop
We’ll do it ’til we drop

This is Big Fun
Here comes Big Fun
I’m steppin’ out with a special one
Here comes Big Fun
Got through the week somehow
We’ll kiss like this
Catch up on all the romance we missed
Here comes Big Fun
We’re gonna have it now
Here comes big fun
I’m steppin out
I’m with my baby

Where gonna have big fun tonight
Where gonna kisssssssssssssss like this
Where gonna have big fun tonight

THE LAST DUET

***************

You creep
Into my heart
And make my heart burn
You sneak
Into my mind
And make my head ache
There are things I long to tell you
You’re much too blonde
You snore
Look
It’s time to face the music
Bye, Bye!
Don’t slam the door
And I don’t want
I don’t want
I don’t want
I don’t want

No, I don’t want your flowers anymore
This is the last duet
Last chance you’re gonna get
No more ha harmony
For you and me
This is the final song
And when the music’s through
This is the last duet
I’ll ever do with you
You’re not the one that I want
Ooh, ooh ooh
Tood-le-oo (honey)
Don’t go breakin’ my back
Don’t call me
I’ll call you
Back together
Reunited
Should feel so good
They say
So I hope there’s no hard feelings
Don’t go ‘way mad
Just go ‘way
’cause

Enough
Is enough
Is enough
Is enough
Too much too little too late
Tonight
Tonight
With you I’m bored again!
This is the last duet
Last chance you’re gonna get
No more ha harmony
For you and me
This is the final song
And when the music’s through
This is the last duet
I’ll ever do with you
This is the last duet
Last chance you’re gonna get
No more ha harmony
For you and me
This is the final song
And when the music’s through
This is the last duet
I’ll ever do
I’ll ever do
I’ll never never never never never do
With you

A LINDA SONG

***************

He never wrote a song for Linda
He wrote as though he lived alone
He wrote of dreams that end of sad brave men
Inventing worlds he never know

But he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all alone
Loved him back to life
When his luck ran low
But he never wrote a Linda song

He nearly broke his heart at writing
Linda kept him from despair
Standing by his side, through the hungry days
But he hardly seemed to see her there

And he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all alone
The one real thing in his crazy world
And he never wrote a Linda song

When the bills piled up and couldn’t pay
He couldn’t dream no more
So he hitched a ride and he road away
And he left a note for Linda by the door
By the door

When times got rough he phone her
Once or twice she took the call
Then she changed her number and she turned her head
And Linda never looked back at all

He’ll never write a song for Linda
And she was right there all alone
Oh he knows,is no one understands
And he never wrote a Linda song
No he never wrote a Linda song

I SHOULD CARE

***************

I should care
I should go around weeping
I should care
I should go without sleeping
Strangely enough I sleep well
‘cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can love you to sleep

But I should care
I shouldn’t let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn’t get me
Maybe I won’t find someone
As lovely as you
But I should care
And I do
But I should care
And I do

WHITE CHRISTMAS

***************

I’m dreaming of a white christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And chrilden listen
To hear sleybells in the snow
I’m dreaming of a white cristmas
With every christmas card I write
May your days be marry and bright
And may all your christmas’s be white

THEY DANCE!

***************

During the day
She’s a full time typist
At the computer
And on the phone
During the day
He’s a auto-mecnhanic
Punchin’ a time clock
And livin’ alone

But at night
In the dark
When the sun goes down
Yes at night
Night is when they
Go to town!

And they dance
And she fells like
Ginger Rogers
They dance!
He’s got the flair
Of Fred Astaire
They dance!
As they glide
Around the ballroom
They dance!
And the world
Belongs to them
When they dance!

Nobody knows that
She has a secret
None of her family
Would ever connect
All of his friends think
He’s shy and quiet
Not in the world would
They ever suspect

That at night
In the dark
When the sun goes down
Yes at night
Night is when they
Go to town

And they dance!
He’s as cool as
John Travolta!
They dance!
She’s as hot as Janet J.!
They dance!
As they glide
Around the ballroom
They dance!
They forget about the day
When they dance!

And they dance!
He’s Antonio Banderas
They dance!
She’s Ann Miller
On the screen!
They dance!
Now the crowd
Is cheering louder
They dance!
And the night
Is like a dream
When they dance!
