Eleanor Rigby

Ah, look at all the lonely people

Ah, look at all the lonely people



Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been

Lives in a dream

Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door

Who is it for?



All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?



Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear

No one comes near

Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there

What does he care?



All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?



Ah, look at all the lonely people

Ah, look at all the lonely people



Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name

Nobody came

Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave

No one was saved



All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people)

Where do they all belong?

[The Beatles]

Real Love

All my little plans and schemes

Lost like some forgotten dreams

Seems that all I really was doing

Was waiting for you



Just like little girls and boys

Playing with their little toys

Seems like all they really were doing

Was waiting for love



Don't need to be alone

No need to be alone

It's real love, it's real

Yes it's real love, it's real



From this moment on I know

Exactly where my life will go

Seems that all I really was doing

Was waiting for love



Don't need to be afraid

No need to be afraid

It's real love, it's real

Yes it's real love, it's real



Thought I'd been in love before

But in my heart, I wanted more

Seems like all I really was doing

Was waiting for you



Don't need to be alone

Don't need to be alone



It's real love, it's real

It's real love, it's real

Yes it's real love, it's real

It's real love, it's real

Yes it's real love, it's real

It's real love, it's real

Yes it's real love, it's real

It's real love, it's real

[The Beatles]

Rocky Raccoon (take 8)

(take 8)

[He was a fool unto himself.



Rocky Raccoon.

Now Rocky Raccoon,

he was a fool unto himself and he would not swallow his foolish pride.

Mind you, he came from a little town in Minnesota.

It's not the kind of thing a young guy did

when a fellow stole his chick away from him.]

Now Rocky Raccoon checked into his room

Only to find Gideon's bible

Rocky had come equipped with a gun

To shoot off the legs of his rival

His rival it seems had broken his dreams

By stealing the girl of his fancy

Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil

But everyone knew her as Nancy

Now she and her man who called himself Dan

Were in the next room at the hoe down

And Rocky burst in and grinning a grin

He said Danny boy this is a showdown

But Daniel was hot-he drew first and shot

And Rocky collapsed in the corner



Nah da da da...



The doctor walked in sminking of gin [Sminking?]

And proceeded to lie on the table

He's really sminking of gin

And he did it in the end [Poor doc.]



Meantime back on the table, yeah



The doctor said, "Rock, you met your match, son"

Rocky said, "it's only a scratch, son

I'll be better soon"

"You better be, better soon," said the doc

Come on son, gotta get hip

Gotta get up

Gotta get back to your gun

Gotta go back soon, Danny Boy



Now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room

Only to find Gideon's bible

Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt

To help with good Rocky's revival



Da da da da...

That's the story of the Rocky Raccoon

I'm So Tired

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink

I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink

I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink

No, no, no



I'm so tired I don't know what to do

I'm so tired my mind is set on you

I wonder should I call you but I know what you'd do



You'd say I'm putting you on

But it's no joke, it's doing me harm

You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain

You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane

You know I'd give you everything I've got

For a little peace of mind



I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset

Although I'm so tired I'll have another cigarette

And curse Sir Walter Raleigh

He was such a stupid get



You'd say I'm putting you on

But it's no joke, it's doing me harm

You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain

You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane

You know I'd give you everything I've got

For a little peace of mind

I'd give you everything I've got

For a little peace of mind

I'd give you everything I've got

For a little peace of mind



[Monsieur, Monsieur, Monsieur, how about another one?]

[The Beatles]

You Can't Do That

I got something to say that might cause you pain

If I catch you talking to that boy again

I'm gonna let you down

And leave you flat

Because I've told you before, oh

You can't do that



Well, it's the second time I've caught you talking to him

Do I have to tell you one more time, I think it's a sin

I think I'll let you down (Let you down)

And leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)

Because I've told you before, oh

You can't do that



Everybody's green

Cos I'm the one who won your love

But if they'd seen

You're talking that way they'd laugh in my face



So please listen to me, if you wanna stay mine

I can't help my feelings, I'll go out of my mind

I'm gonna let you down (Let you down)

And leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)

Because I've told you before, oh
