Nancy

Who am I
Where am I going?
They call me Nancy
Is that my name?

      Nancy...
                     Nancy ...

What am I
What am I doing?
Nothing I fancy
and that's for sure...

I could be someone important
You never know
Maybe I am
Already someone important
Just being me

      Nancy...
                     Nancy ...


No no no!
It's not enough just being Nancy
Not while the world is going crazy
Someone not too selfish or too lazy
ought to give the world a dose of common sense
Someone with no time for sitting on the fence
Someone like Me!

      NANCY...
                     NANCY...

Someone like me who's not afraid to make a stand!
Someone like me who's quite prepared to take command!
Someone like me who's got a nose for politics!
Someone like me who'd like to to knock those commie bastards for six!

NANCY!!
That's who I am!
I'm Nancy!
And I don't give a damn who knows it!

     I'M NANCY!!!

                     NANCY!!!

And I'll never say die
'cause I'll always give it just one more try...

...because I'm Nancy!

     NANCY!!!

                     NANCY!!!...

...!!

Who am I
Where is he going?
They call me Nancy
Is that my name?

      Nancy...
                     Nancy ...

Never Alone "(aka "Bottom Of The Pile")

When you've had about enough
Of the paparazzi stuff in the media
With its freedom to depress
And its easy money t.v. shows
While down in the city
There are fat kitties getting even greedier
With their claws in the corporate drawers
Where the money goes

Look away, maybe someday
Greed will stand trial
But meanwhile
You're never alone at the bottom of the pile

Oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo

When you're tired and you're sick
Of the carrot and the stick economy
And you know in your heart
There is nothing anyone can do
It's as old as the hills
And it's even in the book of Deuteronomy
Thou shalt do unto others before they can do unto you

Look away, maybe someday
We'll look back and smile
But meanwhile
You're never alone at the bottom of the pile
No you're never alone at the bottom of the pile

For all, all over the world
You can hear the same old story told
And saddest of all is that it happens to be true
There's only room at the top for a precious few

Oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo

There's a man going home
With a broken mobile phone and a worried stare
There's a woman from Venus
Married to a man from Mars
There's some dot com kid on the net
Who wants to be a millionaire
We are all in the gutter so we may as well gaze at the stars

Look away, maybe someday
We shall be reconciled
But meanwhile
You're never alone at the bottom of the pile
Never alone at the bottom of the pile
You're never alone, never alone
No not even if you want to be
We are never alone at the bottom of the pile

In this day and age
Love is all the rage
Life goes on,
it only goes to show
It's not my cup of tea
It's all the same to me
For we are here today
and gone tomorrow
(We are here today and...)
Nevertheless,
make the most of it
Make the most of it
Nevertheless (aaah aaah aaah)
Nevertheless (aaah aaah aaah)
Nevertheless (aaah aaah aaah)
Nevertheless (aaah aaah aaah)
(aaah aaah aaah)
(aaah aaah aaah)
(aaah aaah aaah)
(aaah aaah aaah)
(aaah aaah aaah)

Nine to Five Pollution Blues

Just left school, nice and clean
Power tool man machine
Steady job, nine to five
Wonder if I'm still alive
I'm completely bored
Nationally insured
Life is not so hard
When they stamp your card

9 to 5 pollution blues
Only got my soul to lose
Wish I didn't have to choose
Standing in a dead man's shoes

My armpits smell my breath is bad
I look like hell I feel so sad
Rotten fruit between my toes
In my suit I decompose
Standing on my own
My flesh comes off the bone
My boiled potato brain
Tells me that I'm sane

9 to 5 pollution blues
Only got my soul to lose
Wish I didn't have to choose
Standing in a dead man's shoes

Soon be old, when I die
Another mold, a new supply
See no future, no escape
Mother nature changing shape
The day that I was born
A number on a form
Said that I'd arrived
And must be utilized

9 to 5 pollution blues
Only got my soul to lose
Wish I didn't have to choose
Standing in a dead man's shoes

No Matter Who You Vote For,
The Government Always Gets In (Innes/Stanshall)

BONNGGGG
Preside!
Hear, hear, hear!
Might I remind you...
Say it...
Order!
Might I remind you...
        (Heigh ho!)
No!
OOORDERRRR!!!

Noises on the radio
Megaphones on cars
Sermons from the Street of Shame
Know-it-alls in bars
Posters in suburbia
Experts on t.v.
Don't let them disturb-i-ya
They're just the powers that be

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Nobody can win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in!

Heigh ho!

riiiiinnng!!!  (yaaaawn)
Oh, great, great slumbering nation   cock-a-doodle-doo!
Awake!  Set yourself free!
Oh, smell the comforting bacon
Taste the bromide tea
sluuuuurrrrp  aahhh!
An' give a little chirrup as I ladle on the syrup
Promises are cheap
Let me bear your crosses
Make me Boss of Bosses
Then you go back to sleep! ha ha ha...

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in!

Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!
Heigh ho!

Men have dreams of a finer place
Incorruptible Shangri-la
Women too have their Shangri-Las
Shangri-La la la!

See them in the public eye
Oozing oily charm
Hear them all personify
Down on Animal Farm   oink oink   moooo!!
Dog eat dog, not cock and bull
Isms are the game
Ism this and ism that
Ism it a shame?

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Nobody can win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
gobble gobble gobble

Heigh ho!
Don't worry
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
Don't worry
You know you can't win
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
The Government always gets in
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)
(Heigh ho!)
Pop your cross in the bin
(Heigh ho! Heigh ho!)

We are not notorious
We are not unknown
Like birds of a feather
We are not alone
Not alone, not alone
We are not alone

We are not encouraged
We are not deterred
Like the voice of Maggie Thatcher
We are not unheard
Not unheard
Not unheard
We are not unheard

We are not notwithstanding
We are not confused
Like good old Queen Victoria
We are not amused
Not amused, not amused
We are not amused
Not amused, not amused
We are not amused

Not Gettin' Any Younger

Time on my hands
Troubles on my mind
Feelin' low and one degree under
Not gettin' any younger

Living day to day
Guess I'm doin' fine
But I'm feelin' low and one degree under
Not gettin' any younger

Prices always goin' up
Buildings comin' down
Lots of decent crazy people
Live in my home town

Heavy in my heart
Got to draw the line
'Cause I'm feeling low and one degree under
Not gettin' any younger

Prices always goin' up
Buildings comin' down
Lots of decent crazy people
Live in my home town

Heavy in my heart
Got tooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oooo draw the line
'Cause I'm feelin' low and one degree under
Not gettin' any
Younger

 

 

 

 

Not The First Time (Innes/Cowan)

No this is not the first time
Or the last time we shall meet
It's hard to understand the circumstances
And so easy to be indiscreet
Of all the chances we are given
Which one can we take?
And after all the indecision
Do we have a choice to make?

Ahhhhh Ahhhhh
Ahhhhh Ahhhhh

I've seen it all before
The chaos and the lore
All we need is someone
To even up the score
Take away the day and take away the night
I'll show you a man who's looking for a fight
Ever wonder why so many break the rules ?
Ever had to try to understand fools?
In pursuit of pleasure there's many a decoy
And oh how we treasure the things we can enjoy

No this is not the first time
Or the last time we shall meet
It's hard to understand the circumstances
And so easy to be indiscreet
Of all the chances we are given
Which one can we take?
And after all the indecision
Do we have a choice to make?
Do we have a choice to make?

Now She's Left You

Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do
Now she's left you, left you for another guy
Now she's left you, and you feel you wanna die
She's no longer by your side and your tears you cannot hide
Now she's left you, my friend, now she's left you

Now she's left you and you're feeling so alone
Now she's left you sat beside a telephone
That pulls at your heartstrings every time it rings
Now she's left you, my friend, now she's left you

Your love is up to date, my friend, today
Yesterday has gone and tomorrow's on its way

Now she's left you, and you don't know what to do
Now she's left you, go and find somebody new
You have my sympathy 'cause she did the same to me
Now she's left you, my friend, now she's left you
Now she's left you, my friend, now she's left you

Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do do laaaaaaaaaa!

Number One

Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One!)
You're my second-to-none
(You're my second-to-none!)
Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One, oooo!)

One and one make two
And I look after you
Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One, oooo!)

When I fell for you
I didn't need a shove
Now that we are two
It all adds up to love, to love!

Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One!)
You're my second-to-none
(You're my second-to-none!)
Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One, oooo!)

One and one make two
And I look after you
Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One, oooo!)

My teacher couldn't teach me
I had no time for school
No one there could reach me
But baby, I'm no fool, no fool!

Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One!)
You're my second-to-none
(You're my second-to-none!)
Number One, Number One

One and one make two
And I look after you
Number One, Number One
(Number One, Number One!)
You're my Number One
(You're my Number One, oooh!)
