Serious

Oh, I was once a sailor back in 1982
Sailed around the world inside a fiberglass canoe
Searching for the antidote that my poor heart could use
I was only 7 but it’s what I had to do
And everybody says..
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
No
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
Oh
I set out to find my girl and, my girl, I found you
I would do it all again just to tie your shoe
Serious, I’m serious, every word is true
I would do it all again, just to tie her shoe
And everybody says…
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
No
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
Oh
And everybody says…
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
No
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
Oh
And everybody says…
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
No
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
Oh
And everybody says…
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
No
You can’t be serious
You can’t be serious
Oh

Kari-Anne

Well I saw her standing over by the record machine
Just like all the others when she turned sixteen
I’ve heard of seven wonders and I’ve ate sliced bread
But nothing else compares to my Kari-Anne
Well I’ve got a funny feeling
And I’ve got a funny walk
But when Kari-Anne comes over
Oh, it’s not my fault!
Oh, mother I’ve been waiting her for something new
Waiting all my life to find a love that’s true
I don’t expect the whole world to understand
Cause nothing else compares to my Kari-Anne
Well I’ve got a funny feeling
And I’ve got a funny walk
But when Kari-Anne comes over
Oh, it’s not my fault!
Under a pile of leaves,
that's where I used to keep my love.
Behind the warning sign
that's where you once could find my love
Well I’ve got a funny feeling
And I’ve got a funny walk
But when Kari-Anne comes over
Oh, it’s not my fault!
Oh, Kari-Anne!

Maybe she will
Maybe she won't
Find what she's looking for
Maybe she does
Maybe she don't
It's hard to say, nothing more
Everything stands the same as before
It's all so vague, spare me some more
I thought I knew what you were going through
But I don't
Maybe I will
Maybe I won’t
Find what she's looking for
Maybe I do
Maybe I don't
It's hard to say, nothing more
I'll feel better knowing I'm wrong
As I lose touch, it turns her on
I thought I knew what you were going through
But I don't
Maybe she will
Maybe she won't
Maybe I do
Maybe I don’t

See You Thru

Knock, knock, knock,
I'm knockin' on your front door
You don't wanna see me anymore, whoa
Ring, ring, ring, I call you on the telephone
But you're never at home, whoa
I'm holding on to what is gone
Holdin' on much too strong
It frightens me to be alone
Oh, you're running away
And there's nothing left to say
It's the least I can do
I will see you through
I will see you through
Oh my my, I think I made a big mistake
Didn't mean to cause you any pain
I try, try, try, but things will never be the same
Oh baby, ain't that a shame?
I wish that I had treat you right
I wish that I had found the time
'Cause now I'm just a lonely guy
Oh, you're running away
And there's nothing left to say
It's the least I can do
I will see you through
I will see you through
It’s the least I can do
It’s the least I can do
I will see you through

Exorcising Demons
03:30

I'm staying with a friend of mine
'Cause at home the tension’s running high
Even though we both agree
This is for the best, maybe we're wrong
I'm sorry 'bout the dirty clothes
And all the dishes in the sink
I think I need some time alone
I just need time to sit and think
There's something good in everything
Even though it kind of stings
I'm exorcising demons from my life
Oh, demons be gone
Leave me alone tonight
Oh, tonight
Don't come around here any more
I don't wanna see you at my door
I can hear you haunting me
That much is plain, just let me be
There's something good in everything
Even though it kind of stings
I'm exorcising demons from my life
Oh, demons be gone
Leave me alone tonight
Hey, tonight
Oh, demons be gone
Leave me alone tonight
Oh, tonight

Oh I walked to the record shop one sunny afternoon
To look at Rock ‘n’ Roll records
But there were none to see
The manager just laughed and said,
“Oh boy you must be crazy, vinyl is dead and that's the way it should be”
But surely that isn’t true
What would I do
Seems my girlfriend
Loves my LPs
More than she loves me
So with the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
With the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person that I know
That I know
Oh, Say what you wanna say
Nothing in this world can stop my girl
When she starts to dance
And you can do what you wanna do
Just turn the record when side one is through
So we can hear side two
Cause when the music begins
It never ends
Seems my girlfriend loves my LPs
More than she loves me
So with the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
With the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person that I know
With the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
With the speed of thirty-three and one third I will be
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person
The happiest person that I know
Say what you wanna say
Nothing in this world can stop my girl
When she starts to dance
And you can do what you wanna do
Just turn the record when side one is through
So we can hear side two

Dark Room

I'm keeping pictures of you in my head
I'm looking at them every chance I get
I'm developing a certain thing for you
Each and every night in my dark room
Some are color, some are black and white
Your face is keeping me awake at night
Imagine you and me together like I do
Spending lots of time in my dark room
I've got a dirty mind
It takes control sometimes
When I lie down to sleep
It's creeping up on me
I'm keeping pictures of you in my head
I'm looking at them every chance I get
I'm developing a certain thing for you
Each and every night in my dark room

Oh My Love

Oh my my my my you are bold
Oh down down down down you will go
Into a hole where nothings real
I'm glad you won't be staying here
Oh, my love. Hurry up
I can't believe the things you do
And everything you put me through
I don't believe a word you say
I won't partake in games you play
Oh, my love. Hurry up
Far too long
You've been gone
I've often thought about sitting down and writing a letter
I’d ask her if she recalled wearing a turtleneck sweater
Oh my bodies achin’ but my heart won’t leave me alone
I know it’s over but I try to ta-ta-talk on it, oh
Oh, my love. Hurry up
Far too long
You've been gone

Jurley has many things
That she likes to do
Making pottery is
One of the Few
Jurley
Jurley
Where have you gone?
Jurley
Jurley
This is your song
One day she packed her bags
And moved away
Far away
Then she came back again
And made my day
Made my day
Jurley does many things
Very well
Jurley, I think you should know
You are swell
Jurley
Jurley
Where have you gone?
Jurley
Jurley
This is your song
I know I can't complain
'Cause she came back again
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Jurley has many things
That she likes to do
Making pottery is
One of the few
Jurley
Jurley
Where have you gone?

Paid to Think
03:49

I've been thinking about what you said
I'm gonna toss it around inside my head
I'm gonna take some time
Try to find the answers
To the questions weighing on my mind
Well, it's hard to say
Feelings change
Gonna take it day by day
Get a headache or two
Maybe a few
Gonna figure out, baby
What I oughta do
Well, I've never ever really thought about how much I think before
Situations change and that allows myself to think even more
Star light, star bright
Oh, how I wish tonight
That somebody would just pay me to think
I've been locked in my room
Thinking of you
And carefully planning
My next move in to your heart
Where I'll find a crossword puzzle and a rollercoaster ride
Well, I've been thinking about
All these things
Little things like diamond rings and a valentine
Baby, I'm always just one one step forward
Two steps behind
Well, I've never ever really thought about how much I think before
From time to time I wonder what it was I was thinking being born
Star light, star bright
Oh, how I wish tonight
That somebody would just pay me to think
Oh, I can hear you in the hall
And I don't mind that much at all
Until I take a look around
Walls come tumbling down
That's why no one pays me to think
Star light, star bright
Oh, how I wish tonight
That somebody would just pay me to think
