Pretty Toes (Spink)
Dance, dance around your handbag, baby,
Peroxide perm begins to sway,
Well, I’ve been thinking about you lately,
The glitter on your face, the things you say.
You’re such a pretty little complicated thing,
Put the needle on the record and begin to play.
Play my way…
Hey, hey, hey.
A new tune coming your way, now.
You can’t dance long with your high heels on
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain, now
Pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain now, baby,
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain, yeah…
You danced circles round me, baby.
Moonwalk? Rock the boat? It’s hard to say.
Your moves are old but drive me crazy,
They take me back to 1988.
You’re such a cute little, funny little, you know what I mean,
Put the needle on the record and begin to play.
Play my way…
Hey, hey, hey.
A new tune coming your way, now.
You can’t dance long with your high heels on
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain, now
Your pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain now, baby,
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain, yeah…
Dance, dance like no one’s watching, baby.
Until your sling-backs begin to fray.
Your pocket full of “give-a-damn” is empty,
You look cheap and your friend’s got nothing to say.
You’re such a fluffy little, funny looking one,
Put the needle on the record and begin to play.
Play my way……
Hey, hey, hey.
A new tune coming your way, now.
You can’t dance long with your high heels on
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain, now
Your pretty toes wet in the rain.
Pretty toes wet in the rain now, baby,
Get your pretty toes wet in the rain, yeah…..
Remember a Time (Loft)
Find me a hope in the world to believe in
I left all of mine in a box far away
I wrapped it well but it’s starting to wear thin
Sooner or later they’ll be on display
Remember a time when someone believed me
Remember a time when someone agreed
I’m finding it hard to consolidate feelings
I’m finding emotions just get in the way
I’ll put them all back when I’ve seen what this life brings
Well hey! That’s how I’ve got by day after day.
Remember a time when someone believed me
Remember a time when someone agreed
Just jump in front ‘cause I’m counting the reasons
Why nobody else has this look on their face
Pushing when everyone else keeps on pulling
Well, I guess that’s a sign that I’m still in the race
Remember a time when someone believed me
Remember a time when someone agreed
The Robin Song (Spink)
The weatherman gives rain, but I don’t believe him today,
God’s given me sunshine I just want to give some away,
If life’s like a bird that’s flown south and left you astray,
Come visit the robin who lives here in
God’s given me sunshine I just want to give some away.
Good morning Mr. Johnson, can I have a pound of your sausages,
Then I’ll walk home the long way back home to red robin cottages,
She kissed me like she missed me and I reciprocated in vain,
As I sat on the bench on the corner of
God’s given me sunshine I just want to give some away….
She gives me sunshine,
I….feel funny today,
Ahh….the trees in the spring time,
Here….in Calloways,
Red robin spinning and singing in
The kids on the station pull faces at Joe and they laugh
They’ve all just been swimming; for the Dodgewells it’s a chance for a bath.
So Joe blows his whistle and waves goodbye to the train,
And I wave goodbye to the robin at
God’s given me sunshine I just want to give some away….
She gives me sunshine,
I….feel funny today,
Ahh….the trees in the spring time,
Here….in Calloways,
Red robin spinning and singing in
In
In
In
She’ll be Drinking About Me (Spink)
The girl is on the radio again,
I wish that I could remember that girl’s name
Oh no, escapes me once again.
She sang a song from 1983
Before I let life, settle over me
Yeah, I let it settle over me.
Oh, oh, what am I dreaming for?
The rain beats against my door
Oh no, my beautiful cellar door.
But in the pub in the cellar
By the statue of the feller
Who thinks he’s lost at sea.
I sit and drink about a time
When fame will be mine
And she’ll be drinking about me.
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
Girl is on radio FM
I hear the song over and over again
My friend, over and over again
The news reader on the radio he said….
“The streets are flooded, and Jeremy Beadle’s dead”
Oh no, where did the comedy go?
Oh, oh, what am I dreaming for?
The rain beats against my door
Oh no, my beautiful cellar door.
But in the café by the jetty
In alphabet spaghetti
She wrote the words “Good Bye”
I sit and drink about a time
When fame will be mine
And we’ll be on the radio all the time.
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
I drink so I can’t feel my feelings, Yeah!
Girl is on the radio again
