You can Always Count on Me

I come from a long line of good girlsWho choose the wrong guy to be sweet onThe girl with a face that says welcomeThat men can wipe their feet on

I'm there when he calls meThe trusted girl friday alrightBut what good does it do meAlone on a saturday night

I don't need a map I nat'rally head for the dead end streetYou can always count on meI'm caught in a trap When joy is approaching then i retreatI'm at home with misery I've been "the other woman" since my puberty beganI crashed the junior promAnd met the only married manI'm always on tap For romance or choc'late that's bitter sweetYou can always count on me

A matter of fact, If you want an ill-fated love affairYou can always count on meThough i've made a pact To carry out research before i careMen don't give a warrantyOne joe who swore he's singleGot me sorta crocked, the beastI woke up only slightly shocked that i'd defrocked a priestOr else i attract the guys who are longing to do my hairYou can always count on me

I go for the riff raff Who's treating me so so When i can play the second fiddle I'm a virtuoso I should be playing for a wedding bandBut there're no wedding rings attachedThough you can bet there're strings attached

Though my kind of dame No doubt will die out like the dinosaursYou can always count on meI'm solely to blame My head gives advice that my heart ignoresI'm my only enemy

I choose the kind who cannot introduce the girl he's with There're lots of smirking motel clerks who call me, "mrs. smith" But i've made a name With hotel detectives who break down doorsGuess who they expect to seeYou can always count on Bet a large amount on You can always count on meClosest Thing To Crazy

How can I think I'm standing strong, Yet feel the air beneath my feet? How can happiness feel so wrong? How can misery feel so sweet? How can you let me watch you sleep, Then break my dreams the way you do? How can I have got in so deep? Why did I fall in love with you?

This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen, This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known, I was never crazy on my own... And now I know that there's a link between the two, Being close to craziness and being close to you.

How can you make me fall apart Then break my fall with loving lies? It's so easy to break a heart; It's so easy to close your eyes. How can you treat me like a child Yet like a child I yearn for you? How can anyone feel so wild? How can anyone feel so blue?

This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen, This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known, I was never crazy on my own... And now I know that there's a link between the two, Being close to craziness and being close to you.Being close to craziness and being close to you.

Get Happy

Forget your troublesCome on get happyYou better chase all you cares awayShout hallelujahCome on get happyGet ready for the judgment day

The sun is shiningCome on get happyThe lord is waiting to take your handShout hallelujahCome on get happyWe're going to the promised land

We're heading across the riverWash your sins away in the tideIt's all so peaceful on the other side

Forget your troublesCome on get happyYou better chase all you cares awayShout hallelujahCome on get happyGet ready for the judgment day

Forget your troublesCome on get happyYou better chase all you cares awayShout hallelujahCome on get happyGet ready for the judgment day

The sun is shiningCome on get happyThe lord is waiting to take your handShout hallelujahCome on get happyWe're going to the promised land

We're heading across the riverWash your sins away in the tideIt's quiet and peaceful on the other side

Come on get happyYour cares fly awayShout hallelujah get happyGet ready for the judgment day

If I Were a Bell

Ask me how do I feelAsk me now that we're cosy and clinging Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!

From the moment we kissed tonight That's the way I've just gotta behave Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light And If I were a banner I'd wave!

Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging! And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs! Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!

Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learningWell sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!

Yes, I knew my moral would crack From the wonderful way that you looked! Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack! Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!

Ask me how do I feel, ask me now that we're fondly caressing Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing Ask me how to describe this whole beautiful thing Well, if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!

You Made Me Love You

You made me love youI didn't want to do it, I didn't want to do itYou made me love youAnd all the time you knew itI guess you always knew it.You made me happy sometimes, you made me gladBut there were times, Dear, you made me feel so bad

You made me sigh for, I didn't want to tell youI didn't want to tell youI want some love that's true, yes I do, deed I do, you know I do

Give me, give me, give me what I cry forYou know you got the brand of kisses that I'd die forYou know you made me love you
