  1.  DRIVE MY CAR

Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star of 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
She said baby, it's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time
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 I could start right away
And she said listen baby
I've got something to say
Got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver, 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 yeh beep beep yeh


  2.  I'M ONLY SLEEPING

When I wake up early in the morning.
Lift my head, I'm still yawning.
When I'm in the middle of the dream,
Stay in bed, float up stream
(Float up stream),
Please don't wake me,
No, don't shake me,
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping.
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy.
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed,
Till they find there's no need
(There's no need),
Please don't spoil my day,
I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping.
Keeping an eye on the world going by the window,
Taking my time, lying there
                and staring at the ceiling,
Waiting for a sleepy feeling.
Please don't spoil my day,
I'm miles away,
And after all I'm only sleeping.
Keeping an eye on the world going by the window
Taking my time.
When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still yawning,
When I'm in the middle of a dream,
Stay in bed, float up stream
(Float up stream),
Please don't wake me,
No, don't shake me,
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping.


  3.  NOWHERE MAN

He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have 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 will know what you are 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
Nowhere man, don't hurry
Take your time don't worry
Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand
Doesn't have 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 will know what you are missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody


  4. DR. ROBERT

Ring my friend I said you'd call dr. Robert
Day or night he'll be there anytime
                            at all, dr. Robert
Dr. Robert, you're a new and better man,
He helps you to understand,
He does everything he can, dr. Robert
If you're down he'll pick you up, dr. Robert
Take a drink from his special cup, dr. Robert
Dr. Robert, he's a man you must believe,
Helping everyone in need
Noone can succeed like dr. Robert
Well, well, well, you're feeling fine
Well, well, well, he'll make you, dr. Robert
My friend works with the national health, dr. Robert
Don't pay money just to see yourself with dr. Robert
Dr. Robert, you're a new and better man,
He helps you to understand,
He does everything he can, dr. Robert
Well, well, well, you're feeling fine
Well, well, well, he'll make you, dr. Robert
Ring my friend I said you'd call dr. Robert


  5. YESTERDAY

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday
Suddenly I'm not half a man I used to be
There's a shadow handing over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday


  7. AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING

You tell me that you've everything you want,
And your bird can sing
But you don't get me.
You don't get me.
You say you've seen seven wonders,
And your bird is green,
But you can't see me,
You can't see me.
When your prized possession start to wear you down,
Look in my direction
I'll be round, I'll be round.
When your bird is broken
Will it bring you down
You may be awoken
I'll be round, I'll be round.
Tell me that you've heard ev'ry sound there is,
And your bird can swing,
But you can't hear me,
You can't hear me.


  9. WE CAN WORK IT OUT

Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking till I can go on
While you see it your way run the risk of knowing
That our love may soon be gone
We can work it out
We can work it out
Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think
That it's all right
Think of what I'm saying we can work it out
And get it straight or say good night
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart
Before too long
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again


  10. WHAT GOES ON

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 heart,
What goes on in your mind.
You are tearing me apart,
When you treat me so unkind,
What goes on in your mind.


  11. DAY TRIPPER

Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out now
She was a day tripper
One way ticket yeh!
It took me so long to find out
And I found out
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there now
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there now
She was a day tripper
One way ticket yeh!
Tried to please her
She only played one night stands
Tried to please her
She only played one night stands now
She was a day tripper
Sunday driver yeh!
It took me so long to find out
And I found out
Day tripper yeh!
