Lyrics:

You walk alone on the streets tonight I’d kill just to be there by your side Why did I wait so long? The nights are lonely when you’re gone Why did we wait so long? The nights are darker when you’re gone ‘Cause it takes time Until we get it right It takes two It takes me and you And that’s why I need you by my side Together we’re our best Can’t miss you more than this Why did we wait so long? The nights are lonely when you are gone Why did I wait so long? The nights are lonely… lonely when you’re gone

Lyrics:

And I love you like you love Christmas just like distance equals rate times time and time is flying through the clouds shaped just like horses that fell asleep in the sky and we'll fly spaceships in to the ocean and watch the fishes reading Russian novels about God and God will look down he'll lose an eyelash he'll make a wish and everyone will start to dance We'll live in snow globes and stare out the window when it gets cold we'll use our beds to make a fire and when the fire spreads we'll sell to islands where all the people are flying trapeze artists in the sky and we'll grow old there one day I'll die you'll bring flowers maybe even start to cry then a fish will say remember that wish God made on his eyelash it was that you'd ever forget that I'll always love you like you love Christmas just like distance it always equals rate times time

Lyrics:

A little blinking ghost in neon drapes Like little sinking ships beneath new haze You live your life away You waste it almost every day Every day A million wondering eyes when she supplies In foggy window panes until the past You live your life away You waste it almost every day Every day

Lyrics:

In bygone days gentlemen all kept their blade and their gun by their hand. They draw their weapons at their first dirty word, but I traded in my pistol for two rackets and a bird. You've done me wrong, mm that's a fact, you called me yellow behind my back. You spoke vulgar language, here's my retort, gonna smack your shallow popgun around that badminton court. Well I don't go for bullets, don't go for boats, don't go for brawling and getting blood on my clothes. Don't go for cussing when I'm settling my score, so I'll offer declaration on the badminton court. You've done me wrong, mm that's a fact, you called me yellow behind my back. You spoke vulgar language, here's my retort, gonna smack your shallow popgun around that badminton court. Say friends, what do you do on the badminton court? (smack the bird) Oh, what do you do on the badminton court? (smack the bird) Let's smack it! So grab your racket, grab your shorts, take the field for some manly sport. When the sun is high and the breeze is cool. I challenge every scoundrel to a badminton duel. You've done me wrong, mm that's a fact, you called me yellow behind my back. You spoke vulgar language, here's my retort, gonna smack your shallow popgun around that badminton court.

Lyrics:

In the morning, twice a week, I go swimming in the Newtown creek. My nose runs, I begin to cough. My hair and skin flake off. I start in Brooklyn, swim to Queens, turn around and swim back again. My bones ache, I can hardly speak, when I'm swimmin' in the Newtown creek. It was in the Autumn, three years now. My love and I spoke wedding vows. When the evening air was warm, we strolled that dirty shore. We'd count the tires and paper cups, and all the fish floating belly up. She declaired, ""If you ever treat me mean, I'll throw my body in the Newtown stream."" So I hurl myself into the deep. And I hold my breath till I fall asleep. The only girl I ever wanted to keep, is lying at the bottom of the Newtown creek. So I hurl myself into the deep, and I hold my breath until I fall asleep. The only girl I ever wanted to keep, is lying at the bottom of the Newtown creek. In the morning, twice a week, I go swimming in the Newtown creek. My nose runs, I begin to cough. My hair and skin flake off. I start in Brooklyn, swim to Queens, turn around and swim back again. My bones ache, I can hardly speak, when I'm swimmin' in the Newtown creek.
