After all the jacks are in their boxes,
and the clowns have all gone to bed,
you can hear happiness staggering on down the street,
footprints dress in red.

And the wind whispers Mary.

A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterday’s life.

Alright,
now listen, baby

You don’t care for me
I don’-a care about that
Gotta new fool, ha!
I like it like that

I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire [Repeat 4 times]

Listen here, baby
and stop acting so crazy
You say your mum ain’t home,
it ain’t my concern,
Just play with me and you won’t get burned

I have only one itching desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire [Repeat 4 times]

Oh!

Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things just don’t seem the same
Actin’ funny, but I don’t know why
‘Scuse me while I kiss the sky
Purple Haze all around
Don’t know if I’m comin’ up or down
Am I happy or in misery?

Well, I see hands and attesting faces
Reachin’ up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, I taste tears and a whole lot of previous years wasted
Saying ‘lord please give us a helping hand’
Lord lord lord
Lord, there’s got to be some changes
Lord lord lord
Gonna be a whole lot of re-arranges

Lord lord lord
You better hope love is the answer
Lord lord lord
Yeah, it better come before the summer

Well, everybody can hear the sound of freedom’s beating heart
Sirens flashing with earth and rockets stoning
You better love me like it’s gonna be the last time
And tell the child to bury daddy’s old clothes
Love love love
Yeah, they’re talking about getting together, yeah
Love love love
Together for love love love
Love love love
You better hope love is the answer baby
I think you better hope it comes before the summer

Everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Every sister
Everybody
Every mother
Everybody
To feel the light
Everybody
It’s shining bright baby
Everybody
Everybody, we got to live together, oh
Right on baby
Feel those earth blues coming at you baby

Don’t let your imagination take you by surprise
A queen and me i, one day, visualize
My head in the cloud, my feet on the pavement
Don’t get too stoned, please remember you’re a man
Love love love
Lord, there’s got to be some changes
Love love love
Living together’s gonna be a lot of re-arranges
Love love love
You better be ready, lord, my lord
Love love love
Just hope love comes before the summer

Everybody
Everybody,
Everybody
Got to feel the light
Everybody
You gotta feel the light, baby
Everybody,
Everybody
We gotta live together
Everybody
Keep it together,
Everybody
Right on together,
Everybody
