10 Cc - Medley: Rubber Bullets/silly Love Songs/life Is A Hinestrone Lyrics
I went to a party at the local county jailAll the cons were dancing and the band began to wailBut the guys were indiscreetThey were brawling in the streetAt the local dance at the local county jailWell the band were playingAnd the booze began to flowBut the sound came over on the police car radioDown at precinct 49Having a tear-gas of a timeSergeant baker got a call from the governor of the county jailLoad up, load up, load up with rubber bulletsLoad up, load up, load up with rubber bulletsI love to hear those convicts squealIts a shame these slugs aint realBut we cant have dancin at the local county jailSergeant baker and his men made a bee-line for the jailAnd for miles aroundYou could hear the sirens wailTheres a rumor goin round death rowThat a fuse is gonna blowAt the local hop at the local county jailWhatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna doWhatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna doSergeant baker started talkinWith a bullhorn in his handHe was cool, he was clearHe was always in commandHe said blood will flow;Here padrePadre you talk to your boys...Trust in me -God will come to set you freeWell we dont understandWhy you called in the national guardWhen uncle sam is the oneWho belongs in the exercise yardWe all got balls and brainsBut somes got balls and chainsAt the local dance at the local county jailLoad up, load up, load up with rubber bulletsLoad up, load up, load up with rubber bulletsIs it really such a crimeFor a guy to spend his timeAt the local dance at the local county jailAt the local dance at the local county jailWhatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna doWhatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do===================10cc - silly love===================Hey toots, you put the life into livingYou brought a sigh into sightAh hon, you make my legs turn to waterYou bring the stars out at nightBut they aint half so brightAs your eyesGee whiz, you take the beauty out of beautifulYou play the strings of my heartOh babe, you take the wonder out of wonderfulOh my, oh my, and my, if you were mineThe rain would turn to sweet sweet wineWell hes been up all nightBreakin his head in two to writeA little sonnet for his chickadeeBut between you and meI think its sssssssssssilly. sillyOoh treas, you got a smile like a rembrandtAha, you got the style of a queenOh dear, you are the petal of a rosebudNext to you all the others could be weedsYoure the only one my garden needsOoh, you know the art of conversationMust be dyingOoh, when a romance depends onCliches and toupees and threepesWere up to here with moonin and juninIf you want to sound sincere -Dont rely on crosbys croonin -Take a little timeMake up your own rhymeDont rely on mine`cos its sssssssssilly - silly - silly - silly=============================10cc - life is a minestrone=============================Im dancing on the white house lawnSipping tea by the taj mahal at dawnHanging round the gardens of babylonMinnie mouse has got it all sewn upShe gets more fan mail than the popeShe takes the mickey out of all my phobiasLike signing cheques to ward off double pneumoniaLife is a minestroneServed up with parmesan cheeseDeath is a cold lasagneSuspended in deep freezeIm leaning on the tower of pisaHad an eyeful of the tower in franceIm hanging round the gardens of madisonAnd the seat of learningAnd the flush of successRelieves a constipated mindIm like a gourmet in a skid row dinerA fitting menu for a dilettanteLife is a minestroneServed up with parmesan cheeseDeath is a cold lasagneSuspended in deep freezeLove is a fire of flaming brandyUpon a crepe suzetteLets get this romance cooking, honeyBut let us not forgetLife is a minestroneServed up with parmesan cheeseDeath is a cold lasagneSuspended in deep freeze
