If I gotta suffer...you gotta suffer!

...songs and melodies I can't get outta my head....


Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas


from the film Meet Me In St. Louis
Hugh Martin, Ralph Blane 1943

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away.

Here were are as in olden days,
happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.



besides...

Christmas time's a comin', Christmas time's a comin'....

..if we gotta suffer...you gotta suffer!

Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

What do you get when you guzzle down sweets
Eating as much as an elephant eats
What are you at, getting terribly fat
What do you think will come of that
I don't like the look of it

Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do
Doompety do

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompeda dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

Gum chewing's fine when it's once in a while
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile
But it's repulsive, revolting and wrong
Chewing and chewing all day long
The way that a cow does

Oompa loompa doompety da
Given good manners you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

Who do you blame when your kid is a brat
Pampered and spoiled like a siamese cat
Blaming the kids is a lie and a shame
You know exactly who's to blame
The mother and the father

Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not spoiled then you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompeda dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me

What do you get from a glut of TV
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book
Or could you just not bear to look
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no commercials

Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the - Oompa -
Oompa Loompa Doompety do

Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin' Lyrics

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye,
An' it looks like it's climbin' clear up to the sky.

Oh, what a beautiful mornin',
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I got a beautiful feelin'
Ev'rything's goin' my way.

All the cattle are standin' like statues
All the cattle are standin' like statues
They don't turn their heads as they see me ride by,
But a little brown mav'rick is winkin' her eye.

Oh, what a beautiful mornin',
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I got a beautiful feelin'
Ev'rything's goin' my way.

All the sounds of the earth are like music
All the sounds of the earth are like music
The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree,
And a ol' weepin' willer is laughin' at me!

Oh, what a beautiful mornin',
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I got a beautiful feelin'
Ev'rything's goin' my way.
Oh, what a beautiful day!

If I Only Had a Brain

I could while away the hours
Conferring with the flowers
Consulting with the rain.
And my head I'd be a-scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

I'd unravel every riddle
For any individdle
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts I'd be a-thinkin'
I could be another Lincoln
If I only had a brain.

Oh I could tell you why
The ocean's near the shore
I could think of things I'd never thunk before
And then I'd sit, and think some more.

I would not be just a nothin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain
I would laugh and I'd be merry
Life would be a dinglederry
If I only had brain.
If I Only Had a Heart

When a man's an empty kettle
He should be on his mettle
And yet I'm torn apart
Just because I'm presumin'
That I could be kinda human
If I only had a heart

I'd be tender
I'd be gentle
And awful sentimental
Regarding love and art
I'd be friends with the sparrows
And the boy who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart

Picture me
A balcony
Above a voice sings low
Where for art thou, Romeo?
I hear a beat
How sweet
Just to register emotion
Jealousy, devotion
And really feel the part
I could stay young and chipper
And I'd lock it with a zipper
If I only had a heart
If I Only Had the Nerve

Life is sad, believe me, Missy,
when you're born to be a sissy,
without the vim and verve.
But I could change my habits,
never more be scared of rabbits,
if I only had the nerve

I'm afraid there's no denying,
I'm just a dandelion,
a fate I don't deserve.
But I could show my prowess,
be a lion not a meowess,
if I only had the nerve.

Oh, I'd
be in my stride
a king down to the core.
I could roar a way I never roared before,
and then I'd... RRWWWWWWOOOOF!
And roar some more!!

I could show the dinosaurus
whose king around the forest
a king they better serve.
Why with my regal beezer
I could be another Caeser
if I only had the nerve!

I was blue, just as blue as I could be
Ev'ry day was a cloudy day for me
Then good luck came a-knocking at my door
Skies were gray but they're not gray anymore

Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see

Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long

Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on


[2]
I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it can't be true
I should smile, that's exactly what I do

[Jerry D]

And the Number 1 evil song to get stuck in my head: "The Barney Theme"
I love you
You love Me
were a happy Family

[wrbones]

OPENING LYRICS

Barney is a dinosaur from our imagination
When he?s tall he?s what we call A dinosaur sensation
Barney teaches lots of things
Like how to play pretend
A-B-C?s and 1-2-3?s and how to be a friend
Barney comes to play with us
Whenever we may need him
Barney can be your friend too
If you just make believe him
CLOSING LYRICS

I love you,
You love me
We?re a great big family.
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
Won?t you say you love me to!



The tune to the song above is Yankee Doodle. The original lyrics are below.

YANKEE DOODLE

Father and I went down to Camp,
Along with Captain Gooding;
And there we saw the men and boys,
As thick as hasty pudding.

Yankee doodle, keep it up,
Yankee doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.

There was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion,
A-giving orders to his men,
I guess there was a million.

And then the feathers on his hat,
They looked so' tarnal fin-a,
I wanted pockily to get
To give to my Jemima.

And then we saw a swamping gun,
Large as a log of maple;
Upon a deuced little cart,
A load for father's cattle.

And every time they shoot it off,
It takes a horn of powder;
It makes a noise like father's gun,
Only a nation louder.

I went as nigh to one myself,
As' Siah's underpinning;
And father went as nigh agin,
I thought the deuce was in him.

We saw a little barrel, too,
The heads were made of leather;
They knocked upon it with little clubs,
And called the folks together.

And there they'd fife away like fun,
And play on cornstalk fiddles,
And some had ribbons red as blood,
All bound around their middles.

The troopers, too, would gallop up
And fire right in our faces;
It scared me almost to death
To see them run such races.

Uncle Sam came there to change
Some pancakes and some onions,
For' lasses cake to carry home
To give his wife and young ones.

But I can't tell half I see
They kept up such a smother;
So I took my hat off, made a bow,
And scampered home to mother.

Cousin Simon grew so bold,
I thought he would have cocked it;
It scared me so I streaked it off,
And hung by father's pocket.

And there I saw a pumpkin shell,
As big as mother's basin;
And every time they touched it off,
They scampered like the nation.

Yankee doodle, keep it up,
Yankee doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.
The tune to the song above is This Old Man. The original lyrics are below.

THIS OLD MAN

This old man, number one
He played knick-knack on my thumb
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number two
He played knick-knack on my shoe
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number three
He played knick-knack on my knee
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number four
He played knick-knack on my floor
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number five
He played knick-knack on my hive
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number six
He played knick-knack with some sticks
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number seven
He played knick-knack up in heaven
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number eight
He played knick-knack on the gate
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number nine
He played knick-knack on my vine
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

This old man, number ten
He played knick-knack all over again.
With a knick knack, paddy-whack
Give the dog a bone;
This old man came rolling home.

Does your chewing gum loose its flavor on the bed post over night?
When your mother says don't do you chew it in spite?
Can you place it on your tonsils and toss it from left to right.
Does your chewing gum loose its flavor on the bed post over night?

____________

Henry the eighth I am, I married the widow next door, she was married seven times before all them were Henries. Henry the eighth I am.

____________

All day I face the barren waste without the taste of water, cool clear water. O Dan can't you see that big green and waiting there for me and you and water, cool clear water.


__________


They're coming to take me away Ha Ha He He etc.
Really they are.

Everybody is is doin' it, doin' it.
Pickin' their nose and chewin' it, chewin' it.
Thinkin' it's candy, but it'snot

DOES YOUR CHEWING GUM LOSE ITS FLAVOR (ON THE BEDPOST OVERNIGHT)
Lonnie Donegan & his Skiffle Group

Oh me oh my oh you
Whatever shall I do?
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
I'd give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question
Is it yes or is it no?

CHORUS:
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left & right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

Here comes a blushing bride
The groom is by her side
Up to the altar, just as steady as Gibraltar
The groom has got the ring
& it's such a pretty thing
But as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to sing:

(chorus)

Now the nation rise as one
To send their wanted son
Up to the White House, yes, the nation's only White House
To voice their discontent
Unto the Pres-I-dent
The bonny burning question, What has swept this continent?
(Lonnie speaks: If tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make fog horns out of?
Another man shouts: Boom boom!)

(chorus)

On the bedpost overnight
(Man: Hello there, I love you & the one who holds you tight!
Lonnie: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night!)
On the bedpost overnight
(Man: A dollar is a dollar & a dime is a dime!
Lonnie: He'd sing another chorus but he hasn't got the time!)
On the bedpost overnight, yeah!
