Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...).

(Mercury)

You suck my blood like a leech 

You break the law and you breach 

Screw my brain till it hurts 

You've taken all my money - you still want more, 

Misguided old mule 

With your pigheaded rules 

With your narrow - minded cronies who are fools of the first division- 

Death on two legs - 

You're tearing me apart, 

Death on two legs 

You never had a heard of your own - 

Kill joy, Bad guy, 

Big talking, Small fry 

You're just an old barrow - boy 

Have you found a new toy to replace me, 

Can you face me - 

But now you can kiss my ass goodbye 

Feel good, are you satisfied 

Do you feel like suicide (I think you should) 

Is your conscience all right 

Does it plague you at night, 

Do you feel good - Feel good! 

Talk like a big business tycoon, 

But you're just a hot - air balloon, 

So no one gives you a damn, 

You're just an overgrown school - boy 

Let me tan your hide. 

A dog with disease, 

King of the 'sleaze' 

Put your money where your mouth is Mr. Know all, 

Was the fin on your back part of the deal...(shark!) 

Death on two legs 

You're tearing me apart 

Death on two legs - 

You never had a heart of your own, 

(You never did, right from the start) 

Insane you should be put inside, 

You're a sewer - rat decaying in a cesspool of pride 

Should be made unemployed 

Then make yourself null - and - void, 

Make me feel good 

I feel good.

Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon.

(Mercury)

I go out to work on a Monday morning 

Tuesday I go off to honeymoon 

I'll be back again before it's time for Sunny-down, 

I'll be lazing on a Sunday afternoon 

Bicycling on every Wednesday evening 

Thursday I go waltzing to the Zoo 

I come from London town, I'm just an ordinary guy, 

Fridays I go painting in the Louvre 

I'm bound to be proposing on a Saturday night (There he goes again) 

I'll be lazing on a Sunday 

Lazing on a Sunday 

Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon.

I'm in Love With My Car.

(Taylor)

The machine of a dream, such a clean machine,

With the pistons a pumpin', and the hubcaps all gleam.

When I'm holding your wheel,

All I hear is your gear,

When my hand's on your grease gun,

Oh it's like a disease son,

I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile,

Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar,

Such a thrill when your radials squeal.

Told my girl I just had to forget her,

Rather buy me a new cartburettor,

So she made tracks sayin' this is the end now,

Cars don't talk back they're just four wheeled friends now,

When I'm holding your wheel,

All I hear is your gear,

When I'm cruisin' in overdrive,

Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive,

I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile,

I'm in love with my car, string back gloves in my automolove!

You're My Best Friend.

(Deacon)

Ooo. you make me live 

Whatever this world can give to me 

It's you, you're all I see 

Ooo, you make me live now honey 

Ooo, you make me live 

You're the best friend 

That I ever had 

I've been with you such a long time 

You're my sunshine 

And I want you to know 

That my feelings are true 

I really love you 

You're my best friend 

Ooo, you make me live 

I've been wandering round 

But I still come back to you 

In rain or shine 

You've stood by me girl 

I'm happy, happy at home 

You're my best friend. 

You're the first one 

When things turn out bad 

You know I'll never be lonely 

You're my only one 

And I love 

The things that you do 

You're my best friend 

Ooo, you make me live. 

I'm happy, happy at home 

You're my best friend 

You're my best friend 

Ooo, you make me live 

You, you're my best friend.

'39.

(May)

In the year of '39 assembled here the Volunteers 

In the days when lands were few 

Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn 

The sweetest sight ever seen. 

And the night followed dau 

And the story tellers day 

That the score brave souls inside 

For many a lonely day sailed across the milky seas 

Ne'er looked back, never feared, never cried. 

Don't you hear my call though you're many years away 

Don't you hear me calling you 

Write your letters in the sand 

For the day I take your hand 

In the land that our grandchildren knew. 

In the year of '39 came a ship in from the blue 

The volunteers came home that day 

And they bring good news of a world so newly born 

Though their hearts so heavily weigh 

For the earth is old and grey, to a new home we'll away 

But my love this cannot be 

For so many years have gone though I'm older but a year 

Your mother's eyes in your eyes cry to me. 

Don't you hear my call though you're many years away 

Don't you hear me calling you 

All the letters in the sand cannot heal me like your hand 

For my life 

Still ahead 

Pity Me.

Sweet Lady.

(May)

You call me up and treat me like a dog 

You call me up and tear me up inside 

You've got me on a lead 

You bring me down 

You shout around 

You don't believe that I'm alone. 

Sweet Lady 

Sweet Lady 

Sweet Lady...Stay sweet. 

You say 

"You call me up and feed me all the lines 

"You call me sweet lime I'm some kind of cheese 

"Waiting on the shelf 

"You eat me up 

"You hold me down 

"I'm just a fool to make you a home 

"And you say 

"Sweet lady 

"Sweet lady 

"Sweet lady...Stay sweet." 

My Sweet lady 

Though it seems like we wait forever 

Stay sweet baby 

Believe and we've got everything we need.

Seaside Rendezvous.

(Mercury)

Seaside - whenever you stroll along with me I'm merely contemplating what 

You feel inside meanwhile I ask you to be my Clementine - 

You say you'd have to tell your daddy if you can - I love you madly - 

Let me imagination run away with you gladly - 

A brand new angle - highly commendable - Seaside Rendezvous - 

I feel so romantic - can we do it again 

Can we do it again sometime, 

Fantastic, c'est la vie mesdames et messieurs 

And at the peak of the season, the 

Mediterranean -, this time of year, it's so fashionable, 

I feel like dancing - in the tain, 

All I need is a volunteer - 

Dancing - what a damn jolly good idea - 

It's such a jollification - as a matter of fact, so tres charmant my dear - 

Underneath the moonlight - together we'll sail across the sea - 

Reminiscing every night 

Meantime - I ask you to be my valentine 

You say you do if you did but you daren't I'll be your Valentino - 

We'll ride upon an omnibus and then the casino - 

Get a new facial - so sensational - 

Seaside Rendezvous - so adorable, 

Seaside Rendezvous

Seaside Rendezvous.

Prophet's Song.

(May)

Oh Oh people of earth 

Listen to the warning 

The seer he said 

Beware the storm that gathers here 

Listen to the wise man. 

I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair 

Spreading his hands on the multitude there 

A man who cried for a love gone stale 

And ice cold hearts of charity bare. 

I watched as fear took the old men's gaze 

Hopes of the yound in troubled graves 

I see no day, I heard him say 

So grey is the face of every mortal. 

Oh Oh people of earth 

Listen to the warning 

The prophet he said 

For soon the cold of night will fall 

Summoned by your own hand. 

Oh Oh children of the land 

Quicken to the new life 

Take my hand 

Fly and find the new green bough 

Return like the white dove. 

He told of death as a done white haze 

Taking the lost and the unloved babe 

Late too late all the wretches run 

These kinds of beasts now counting their days.

Love of My Life.

(Mercury)

Love of my life - you hurt me,

You broken my heart and now you leave me.

Love of my life can't you see,

Bring it back, bring it back,

Don't take it away from me, because you don't know what it means to me.

Love of my life don't leave me,

You've taken my love, you now desert me,

Love of my life can't you see,

Bring it back, bring it back,

Don't take it away from me because you don't know what it means to me.

You won't remember

When this is blown over

And everything's all by the way

When I get older

I will be there at your side to remind you how I still love you

I still love you.

Back, hurry back,

Please bring it back home to me because you don't know what it means to me.

Love of my life.

Love of my life.

Good Company.

(May)

Take good core of what you've got

My father said to me

As he puffed his pipe and Baby B.

He dandled on his knee

Don't fool with fools who'll turn away

Keep all Good Company

Oo Hoo Oo Hoo

Take care of those you call your own

And keep Good Company

Soon I grew and happy too

My very good friends and me

We'd play all day with Sally J.

The girl from number four

And very soon I begged her won't you

Keep me Company

Now marriage is an insinuation sure

My wife and I our needs and nothing more

All my friends by a year by and by disappear

But we're safe enough behind our door.

I flourished in my humble trade

My reputation grew

The work devoured my waking hours

But when my time was through

Reward of all my efforts my own

Limited Company

I hardly noticed Sall as we

Pated Company

All through the years in the end it appears

There was never really anyone but me

Now I'm old I puff my pipe

But no-one's there to see

I ponder on the lesson of

My life's insanity

Take care of those you call your own

And Keep Good Company.

Bohemian Rhapsody.

(Mercury)

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Caught in a landslide,

No escape from reality.

Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see,

I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,

Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low,

Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

Mama just killed a man,

Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead.

Mama, life had just begun,

But now I've gone and thrown it all away.

Mama, ooh, didn't mean to make you cry,

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,

Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

Too late, my time has come,

Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time.

Goodbye, ev'rybody, I've got to go,

Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.

Mama, ooh, I don't want to die,

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.

I see a little silhouetto of a man,

Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango.

Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very fright'ning me.

(Galileo.) Galileo. (Galileo.) Galileo, Galileo figaro

Magnifico-ooh... I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me.

He's just a poor boy from a poor family,

Spare him his life from this monstrosity.

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go.

Bismillah! No, we will not let you go.

(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.

(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.

(Let me go.) Will not let you go.

(Let me go.) Will not let you go. (Let me go.) Ah.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

(Oh mama mia, mama mia.) Mama mia, let me go.

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me.

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye.

So you think you can love me and leave me to die.

Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,

Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.

Nothing really matters, anyone can see,

Nothing really matters,

Nothing really matters to me.

Any way the wind blows.

God Save the Queen.

(Trad, arr, May)
