A Night at the Opera
The sleeve

Death On Two Legs (Dedicated to …)

You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you breach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken 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 heart 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 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 make unemployed
Then make yourself null-and-void,
Make me feel good
I feel good.


Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon

I go out to work on 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,
Friday's 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 afternoon
lazing on a Sunday
lazing ona Sunday Afternoon.


I'M In Love With My Car

The machine of 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,
Rahter buy me a new carburettor,
So she made tracks sayin' this is the end 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 oove with my car, striong back gloves in my aotumolove !


You're My Best Friend

Oh you make me live
Whatever this world can give to me
It's you, you're all I see
Ooh, you make me live now honey.
Ooh 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

Ooh you make me live.

I've been wandering round
But 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 not 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

Ooh you make me live

I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
Ooh you make me live
You, you're my best friend.


'39

In the year of '39 assembled here the Volunteer
s In the days where the lands were few
Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn
The sweetest sight ever seen.

And the night followed day
And the story tellers say
That the score brave souls inside
For many a lonely day sailed acroos 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 ship in from the blue
The Volunteers came home that day
And they bring good news of 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 is cannot be
For so many years are 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 caling you
All the letters in the sand cannot heal me like your hand

For my life
Still ahead
Pity me


Sweet Lady

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 stay
²You call me up and feel me all the lines
²You call me sweet like I'm some king of cheese
²Waiting on the shelf
²You eat me up
²You hold me down
²I'm just a fool to make you a home

²And you say
² Sweet Lady
²Sweet Lady
² Sweet Lady … Stay sweet ²

My Sweet Lady
Though it seems like we wait forever
Stay sweet baby
Believe and we've got everything we need.

A brand new angle - highly commendable -

All I need is a volunteer -
Dancing - what a damn jolly good idea -
It's such a jollification - as a matter of fact,
So très charmant my dear -

Underneath the moonlight -
Together we'll sail across the sea -
Reminiscing every night

The Prophet's Song

Oh Oh people of the 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 here
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 young in troubled graves
I see no day, I heard him say
So grey is the face of every mortal.

Oh Oh people of the 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 bone withe haze
Taking the lost and the unloved babe
Late tool late all the wretches run
These kings of beasts nowo counting their days.
From mother 's love is the son estranged
Married is own his precious gain
The earth will shake in two will break
And death all around will be your dow'ry

Oh Oh people of the earth
Listen to the warning the seer he said
For those who hear and mark my words
Listen to the good plan.

Oh Oh - and two by two my human zoo
They'll be
Running for to come
Running for to come
Out of the rain

Flee for your life
Who heed me not, let all yor treasure make you
Fear for your life
Deceive you not the fire of hell will take you
Should death await you.

God give you grace to purge this place
And peace all around may you be fortune.

Oh Oh children of the land
Love is still the answear , take my hand
The vision fades, a voice I hear
²Listen to the madman !²

but still I fear and still dare not
Laugh at the madman.


Love Of My Life

Love of my life - you've hurt me,
You've broken my heart and know you leave me ,
Love of my lofe 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 know desert me,
Love of my ljfe 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 reming you
How I still live you - 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 ly life …


Good Company

Take good care of what you've got
My father said to me
As he puffed his pipe and Baby B.
He handled 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
Oo Hoo Oo Hoo
Come marry me for evermore we'll
Be Good Company.

Now mariage is an institution sure
My wife and I our needs and nothing more
All my friends by a year
By and by disapeared
But we're safe enough behind our door.

I flourished my humble trade
My reputation grew
The work devoure my waking hours
But when my time was through
Reward of all my efforts my own
Limited Company

I hardly noticed Sally as we
Parted 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

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 matters 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,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Svaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightn'ing me
(Galileo)Galileo, (Galileo)Galileo, Galileo Figaro
Magnifico I'm just a poor boy, 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
Bismilah !No we will not let you go
(Let him go !)Bismilah ! we will not let you go
(Let him go !)Bismilah ! we will not let you go
(Let me go !)We will not let you go
(Let me go !)We 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 yo can stone me and spit in my eye
So you can love me and leave me to die
Oh baby, can do this to me baby
Just gotta get out, just hotta get right outta here

Nothing really matters, anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

Any way the wind blows.
