PAPER MACHE, CABBAGES & KINGS
By
Bee Gees

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

Na na na na na na na na na
Paper mache and telegraph poles
Things go dead in the night
Make enough noise to make enough noise
to make you want to jump with fright
Elephant’s tusks and autograph books ,people you don’t meet
Haven’t got a bed to lay my head , shoes to fit my feet

Don’t be scared
You’re better off then nothing
You’re answering to no one
Paper mache

Paper mache and telegraph poles
Thing go dead in the night
Make enough noise to make enough noise
to make you want to jump with fright
Elephant’s tusks and autograph books, people you don’t meet
Haven’t got a bed to lay my head, shoes to fit my feet

Don’t be scared
You’re better off then nothing
You’re answering to no one
Paper mache

All of a sudden it happened
When you did what you said you’d do
And you broke my heart in two
Like paper mache
All of a sudden it happened, oh…
You came into my life
Like paper mache you broke my heart
Like paper mache, paper mache
Like paper mache

Paper mache and telegraph poles
Things go dead in the night
Make enough noise to make enough noise
to make you wanna jump with fright
Elephant’s tusks and autograph books
People you don’t meet

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Jimmy had a bomb and the bomb went bang
Jimmy was everywhere

Jimmy had a bomb and the bomb went bang
Jimmy was everywhere

MONDAY’S RAIN

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

I can see the sun shinin’ down on me
Is it you my love that I can see
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me walk to Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)
to Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)

In this my life , I walk in light
You are my love so baby I’m all right
Don’t let me down , baby
Don’t let me down
Oh baby, please don’t let me walk in Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)
in Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)

Ah….

Ev’ry man alive has got to have someone
So what will I do when baby you are gone
Don’t let me down
Don’t walk on me
My Sunday sunshine
hide Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)
hide Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain)
Monday’s rain (Monday’s rain) Ah…

EMBRACE

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

I don’t know what you want, I don’t hear what you said
Truth behind the lies
‘Cause I can’t see what’s in your head
And spread your wings and fly, out in a brave new world
Let this be my prayer, to keep you safe when I’m not there
Can we love and live apart, I don’t know,no, I don’t know
How can we divide the heart, I don’t know, no, I don’t know

And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word
Embrace

Through the mists of time, lovers can be friends
The power of the human heart
The secrets in the souls of men
All my blessings in disguise
I don’t know, no, I don’t know
Reunited we will rise
I don’t know, no, I don’t know

And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word

And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
Another daybreak, another heartache
I long for your embrace

Living separate lives
Away from you
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely life
Lonely days and nights
We can live our life
Embrace, embrace
With our separate lives
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Lonely days and nights
I will never send away
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Embrace the child inside
The lonely, lonely lives

DEAREST

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

I hear you calling me ‘dearest’ too.
My dearest, I’m nearest, then I’ve ever been before
To have you calling me ‘dearest’ once more.
My dearest, this picture, my own memory.
Wishing this picture was reality.

Where do I go from here? The Lord took you away.
And if you could see my today, I will remember you.
I will remember you
My dearest, sincerest, there’s no one but you and
Here in my heart you’re my dearest too.

Where do I go from here? The Lord took you away.
And if you could see me today, I will remember you.
I will remember you.
My dearest, sincerest, there’s no one but you and
Here in my heart you’re my dearest too.

YOU KNOW IT’S FOR YOU

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

I would die for you.
I have cried for you ,believe me girl.
Don’t you think it’s time you made up your own mind?
All my love’s for you.
All I do’s for you.
Still I think it’s time you made up your own mind.

A melody, my symphony
You know it’s for you, love.
It’s plain to see, it’s meant to be.
Now it’s up to you, love.

Still I’ll wait for you.
Waiting just for you, don’t leave me girl.
Don’t you think it’s time you made up your own mind?
Love is here for you.
Love was made for you, believe me girl.
Don’t you think it’s time you gave up?
You are mine.

La da da la dee da dee da-ee-a-ee-a-ee-a-ee-ah
La da da la dee da dee da-ee-a-ee-a-ee-a-ee-ah

Doo doo doo doo doo doo , You know it’s for you

SWAN SONG

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

This is my swan song. Whatever I do now, I do it well.
This is my swan song. I fell in love with you I love you well.
And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my last chance, a chance to show the world that I am strong.
This is my last dance. I’m walking off the floor where I belong.
And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

La…..

And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my swan song. I fell in love with you , I love you well,
I love you well, I love you well.
