Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, can’t you see?
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I’m gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I’ll love you
I told that girl that my prospects were good
And she said “baby, it’s understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time”
I told that girl I could start right away
And she said “listen babe I got something to say
I got no car and it’s breaking my heart
But I’ve found a driver and that’s a start”
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I’m gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I’ll love you
Beep beep, Mm beep beep yeh

I once had a girl,
or should I say she once had me?
She showed me her room,
isn’t it good, Norwegian wood?
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere,
So I looked around and I noticed there wasn’t a chair.
I sat on a rug,
biding my time, drinking her wine.
We talked until two
and then she said “It’s time for bed”.
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
I told her I didn’t and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And when I awoke
I was alone, this bird had flown.
So I lit a fire,
isn’t it good, Norwegian wood?

When I call you up
your line’s engaged.
I have had enough,
so act your age.
We have lost the time,
that was so hard to find,
and I will loose my mind,
If you won’t see me.
I don’t know why you,
should want to hide.
But I can’t get through,
my hands are tied.
I won’t want to stay,
I don’t have much to say.
But I can turn away
and you won’t see me.
Time after time you refuse to even listen,
I wouldn’t mind if I knew what I was missing.
Though the days are few,
they’re filled with tears,
and since I lost you,
It feels like years.
Yest it seems so long,
girl since you’ve been gone,
I just can’t go on,
If you won’t see me.

He’s a real nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.
Doesn’t kave a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen,
You don’t know what you’re missing,
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command.
He’s as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Doesn’t kave a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, don’t worry,
Take your time, don’t hurry,
Leave it all ’till somebody else
lends you a hand.
He’s a real Nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.

I’ve got a word or two
to say about the things that you do.
You’re telling all those lies
about the good things that we can have
if we close our eyes.
Do what you want to do,
and go where you’re going to,
think for yourself
‘cos I won’t be there with you.
I left you far behind
the riuns of the life that you had in mind.
And though you still can see,
I know your mind’s made up
you’re gonna cause more misery.
Do what you want to do,
and go where you’re going to,
think for yourself
‘cos I won’t be there with you.
Although your mind’s opaque
try thinking more if just for your own shake.
The future still looks good,
and you’ve got time to rectify
all the things that you should.
Do what you want to do,
and go where you’re going to,
think for yourself
‘cos I won’t be there with you
think for yourself
‘cos I won’t be there with you.

Say the word and you’ll be free,
say the word and be like me,
say the word I’m thinking of,
have you heard the word is love?
It’s so fine,
It’s sunshine,
It’s the word, love.
In the beginning I misunderstood,
but now I’ve got it, the word is good.
Say the word and you’ll be free,
say the word and be like me,
say the word I’m thinking of,
have you heard the word is love?
It’s so fine,
It’s sunshine,
It’s the word, love.
Everywhere I go, I hjear it said.
In the good in the bad books that I have read.
Say the word and you’ll be free,
say the word and be like me,
say the word I’m thinking of,
have you heard the word is love?
It’s so fine,
It’s sunshine,
It’s the word, love.
Now that I know what I feel must be right,
I want to show everybody the light.
Give the word a chance to say,
that the word is just a way,
It’s the word I’m thinking of,
and the only word is love.
It’s so fine,
It’s sunshine,
It’s the word, love.
Say the word love,
Say the word love,
Say the word love.

Michelle, ma belle.
These are words that go together well,
my Michelle.
Michelle, ma belle.
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble,
tres bien ensemble.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
That’s all I want to say,
until I find a way.
I will say the only words I know that
you’ll understand.
Michelle, ma belle.
These are words that go together well,
my Michelle.
Michelle, ma belle.
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble,
tres bien ensemble.
I need you, I need you, I need you.
I need to make you see,
oh, what you mean to me.
Until I do I’m hoping you,
will know what I mean.
I love you.
I want you, I want you, I want you.
I think you know by now
I’ll get to you somehow.
Until I do I’m telling you so
you’ll understand
And I will say the only words I know that
you’ll understand, my Michelle.

What goes on in your heart?
What goes on in your mind?
You’re tearing me apart,
when you treat me so unkind.
What goes on in your mind?
The other day I saw you as I walked along the road,
but when I saw him with you I could feel my future fold.
It’s so easy for a girl like you to lie,
tell me why.
What goes on in your heart?
What goes on in your mind?
You’re tearing me apart,
when you treat me so unkind.
What goes on in your mind?
I met you in the morning waiting for the tides of time,
but now the tide is turning I can see that I was blind.
It’s so easy for a girl like you to lie,
tell me why.
What goes on in your heart?
I used to think of no one else, but you were just the same
You didn’t even think of me as someone with a name.
Did you mean to break my heart and watch me die?
Tell me why.
What goes on in your mind?

Is there anybody gone to listen to my story
all about the girl who came to stay?
She’s the kind of girl you want so much
it makes you sorry,
Still, you don’t regret a single day.
Ah girl, girl
She’s the kind of girl who puts you down
when friends are there, you feel a fool.
When you say she’s looking good
she acts as if it’s understood.
She’s cool
girl, girl
When I think of all the times I’ve tried to leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry.
And she promises the earth to me
and I believe her,
after all this time I don’t know why.
Ah, girl, girl
She’s the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there,
You feel a fool.
When you say she’s looking good, she acts as if it’s understood.
She’s cool,
girl, girl
Was she told when she was young the fame
would lead to pleasure?
Did she understand it when they said
that a man must break his back to earn
his day of leisure?
Will she still believe it when he’s dead?
Ah girl, girl, girl.

I’m looking through you,
where did you go?
I thought I knew you,
what did I know?
You don’t look different,
but you have changed.
I’m looking through you,
you’re not the same.
Your lips are moving,
I cannot hear.
You’re voice is soothing,
but the words ain’t clear.
You don’t sound different,
I’ve learnt the game.
I’m looking through you,
you’re not the same.
Why, tell me why
did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit
of dissapearing overnight.
You’re thinking of me,
the same old way.
You were above me,
but not today.
The only difference,
is you’re down there.
I’m looking through you,
and you’re nowhere.
Why, tell me why
did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit
of dissapearing overnight.
I’m looking through you,
where did you go?
I thought I knew you,
what did I know?
You don’t look different,
but you have changed.
I’m looking through you,
you’re not the same.
