I'm Moody Composer(s): Jack Fulton; Milton Samuels Performer(s): Jack Jones
I'm moody, here I go again Moody, why do I get so moody At the sound of your name
Dreamer, am I only a dreamer If I'm only a dreamer Then my heart's unaware It's a lost love affair
I tell myself there's no one else Your heart is yearning for Your lips are burning for That we're not true But then I panic at the thought I may be losing you And if I'm losing you What will I do
I'm moody, here I go again Moody, I will always be moody It will cling like a vine Till you say you are mine
I'm Mandy, Fly Me Composer(s): Kevin Godley; Graham Gouldman; Eric Stewart Performer(s): 10 cc
Just like a rolling stone I'm outside looking in But if your chance came would you take it Where on earth do I begin I'm Mandy fly me I've often heard her jingle It's never struck a chord With a smile as bright as sunshine She called me through the poster And welcomed me aboard She led me she fed me She read me like a book But I'm hiding in the small print Won't you take another look And take me away Try me Mandy fly me away The world was spinning like a ball And then it wasn't there at all And as my heart began to fall I saw her walking on the water As the sharks were coming for me I felt Mandy pull me up give me the kiss of life Just like the girl in Dr. No No No No Ah when they pulled me from the wreckage And her body couldn't be found Was it in my mind it seems I had a crazy dream I told them so but they said no no no no I found me on a street And staring at a wall If it hadn't have been for Mandy Her promise up above me Well I wouldn't be here at all So if you're travelling in the sky Don't be surprised if someone said Hi I'm Mandy fly me
Everyone's Gone To The Moon Composer(s): Jonathan King Performer(s): Jonathan King; and various other artists
Streets full of people, all alone Rows full of houses, never home Church full of singing, out of tune Everyone's gone to the moon
Eyes full of sorrow, never wet Hands full of money, all in debt Sun disappears in the middle of June Everyone's gone to the moon
Long time ago, life had begun Everyone went to the sun
Hearts full of motors, painted green Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream Hands that can only lift a spoon Everyone's gone to the moon Everyone's gone to the moon Everyone's gone to the moon
I'm Making Believe Composer(s): James V. Monaco; Mack Gordon Performer(s): John Lee Hooker and multiple other artists
I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away Making believe I'm talking to you, wish you could hear what I say And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do Making believe is just another way of dreaming, so till my dreams come true I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow Making believe it's you
I'm making believe that you're in my arms though I know you're so far away Making believe I'm talkin' to you, wish you could hear what I say And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow Making believe it's you
And here in the gloom of my lonely room we're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreamin', so till my dreams come true I'll whisper "Good night", turn out the light, and kiss my pillow
Everyone Gets Crazy Composer(s): Kevin Welch Performer(s): The Highwaymen
Look here is that you I see You sure seem down to me Would you like to tell it to a friend I can help if anyone can You know I understand Everyone gets crazy now and then
Yes i know those empty nights get lonely Sometimes you feel like you're the only one To lose more then he wins Guess these trouble times get scary But that's just ordinary Everyone gets crazy now and then (all together)
And who can say they've never stumbled Never fallen to their knees Your dreams like castles when they crumble Well I know what you mean And I know how hard it can seem
I get crazy just like you Lost and lonely too Like some old flag left flying in the wind Time has taught me this for sure Time itself is the only cure All your blues will turn to gold again Everyone gets crazy now and then

Everyday People Composer(s): Sylvester "Sly Stone" Stewart Performer(s): Sly & The Family Stone; and various other artists
Sometimes I'm right, then I can be wrong My own beliefs are in my songs A butcher, a banker, a drummer and then Makes no difference what group I'm in I am everyday people
Then it's the blue ones who can't accept The green ones for living with The black ones tryin' to be a skinny one Different strokes for different folks And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha We gotta live together
I am no better and neither are you We're all the same whatever we do You love me, you hate me You know me and then Still can't figure out the scene I'm in I am everyday people
Then it's the new man That doesn't like the short man For being such a rich one That will not help the poor one Different strokes for different folks And so on and so on scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha We got to live together
There is a yellow one that won't Accept the black one That won't accept the red one That won't accept the white one
Different strokes for different folks And so on and so on and Scooby dooby dooby Ooh sha sha I am everyday people

Everyday Boy Composer(s): Joan Armatrading Performer(s): Joan Armatrading
Well I've never met anyone Wiht your courage And the way you enjoy life Puts me to shame Just an hour with you And I understand why We had to meet
I saw you look in the mirror And adjust your hair Smile And leave the room
Just an everyday boy Doing everyday things But you're somebody special Somebody who feels You're not the first And you won't be the last But you are the one I'll remember
It's God's revenge You're surrounded by fear A compassionate man You hold people dear
No blame for the mother Who curses your name She fears for her son It's death by association
But you respect yourself And you let it show Some fade with guilt And the shame
The way yo tell your story With no tears for yourself Just and everyday boy Doing everyday things
You're not the first And you won't be the last But you are the one I'll remember
Hey hey Just an everyday boy Just an everyday boy Doing everyday things
Just an everyday boy Just an everyday boy Just an everyday boy Doing everyday things Just an everyday boy
