Your Song (Elton John)

It's A LITTLE bit funny, this feeling inside

I'm not one of THOSE who can easily hide

I don't have MUCH money but, boy if I did

I'd buy A BIG HOUSE where we both could live

If I was A sculptor, but then again no

Or A MAN who makes potions in a traveling show

I know it's not MUCH but it's THE best I can do

My gift is my song yeah, and THIS one's for you

And you can tell EVERYBODY this is your song

It may be quite simple but, now THAT it's done,

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is while you're in THE world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss

Well A FEW of the verses, well they've got me quite cross

But THE sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song

It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting, but THESE things I do

You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue

ANYWAY, the thing is, what I really mean

Yours are THE SWEETEST eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell EVERYBODY this is your song

It may be quite simple but, now THAT it's done,

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words

How wonderful life is while you're in THE world

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind

That I put down in words how wonderful life is

While you're in THE world

SHOPPING (Pet Shop Boys)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoIe_JatFfI

­­­­­We're BUYING and SELLING your history

How we go about it is no mystery

We check it with the city then change the law

Are you looking forward?

Now you want some more

We're S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G

We're shopping

It's easy when you've got all the INFORMATION

Inside help, no investigation

No QUESTIONS in the house

no GIVE and TAKE

There's a big bang in the city

We're all on the make

We're S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G

We're shopping

Our gain is your loss

That's the PRICE you pay

I heard it in the House of Commons

Everything's for SALE

We're S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G

We're shopping
