Come See About Me
Come See About Me
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Edward Holland Jr.
First recording/First release by: The Supremes - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
I've been crying
'Cause I'm lonely (for you)
Smiles have all turned to tears
But tears won't wash away the fears
That you're never ever gonna return
To ease the fire that within me burns
It keeps me crying baby for you
Keeps me sighin' baby for you
So won't you hurry?
Come on boy, see about me
(Come see about me)
See about you baby
I've given up my friends just for you
My friends are gone
And you have too
No peace shall I find
Until you come back
And be mine
No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you anyway
Keep on crying baby for you
I'm gonna keep sighin' baby for you
So come on hurry
Come on and see about me
(Come see about me)
See about you baby
Sometime's up
Sometime's down
My life's so uncertain
With you not around
From my arms you maybe out of reach
But my heart says you're here to keep
Keeps me crying baby for you
Keep on, keep on crying baby for you
So won't you hurry
Come on boy, see about me (Come see about me)
See about you baby (Come see about me)
You know I'm so lonely (Come see about me)
I love you only (Come see about me)
See about your baby (Come see about me)
Hurry, hurry

Roadrunner (The Modern Lovers)
Roadrunner
Composer(s): Jonathan Richman
Performer(s): The Modern Lovers;
and various other artists
I'm in love with Massachusetts
And the neon when it's cold outside
And the highway when it's late at night
Got the radio on
I'm like the roadrunner
Alright
I'm in love with modern moonlight
128 when it's dark outside
I'm in love with Massachusetts
I'm in love with the radio on
It helps me from being alone late at night
It helps me from being lonely late at night
I don't feel so bad now in the car
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
That's right
Said welcome to the spirit of 1956
Patient in the bushes next to '57
The highway is your girlfriend as you go by quick
Suburban trees, suburban speed
And it smells like heaven(thunder)
And I say roadrunner once
Roadrunner twice
I'm in love with rock & roll and I'll be out all night
Roadrunner
That's right
Well now
Roadrunner, roadrunner
Going faster miles an hour
Gonna drive to the Stop 'n' Shop
With the radio on at night
And me in love with modern moonlight
Me in love with modern rock & roll
Modern girls and modern rock & roll
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
O.K., now you sing Modern Lovers
(Radio On!)
I got the AM
(Radio On!)
Got the car, got the AM
(Radio On!)
Got the AM sound, got the
(Radio On!)
Got the rockin' modern neon sound
(Radio On!)
I got the car from Massachusetts, got the
(Radio On!)
I got the power of Massachusetts when it's late at night
(Radio On!)
I got the modern sounds of modern Massachusetts
I've got the world, got the turnpike, got the
I've got the, got the power of the AM
Got the, late at night, (?), rock & roll late at night
The factories and the auto signs got the power of modern sounds
Alright
Right, bye bye!

Time Warp
Time Warp
Composer(s): Richard O'Brien
First release by: Jonathan Adams - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
Riff Raff:
It's astounding
Time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely
Magenta:
Not for very much longer
Riff Raff:
I've got to keep control
I remember doing the Time Warp
Drinking those moments when
The blackness would hit me
Riff Raff & Magenta:
And the void would be calling
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
The Criminologist:
It's just a jump to the left
(And then a step to the right)
With your hands on your hips
(You bring your knees in tight)
(But it's the pelvic thrust)
(That really drives you insane)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
Magenta:
It's so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
Riff Raff:
With a bit of a mind flip
Magenta:
You're into the time slip
Riff Raff:
And nothing can ever be the same
Magenta:
You're spaced out on sensation
Riff Raff:
Like you're under sedation
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
Columbia:
Well I was walking down the street
Just a-having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pick-up truck and the devil's eyes
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)
The Criminologist:
It's just a jump to the left
(And then a step to the right)
With your hands on your hips
(You bring your knees in tight)
(But it's the pelvic thrust)
(That really drives you insane)
(Let's do the Time Warp again)

The Time It Is Today
The Time It Is Today
Performer(s): The Association
Sunrise, sunset
What you're born with is what you get
Let your fear just pass away
Then your love will fill your days
I know
I need so little, yet so much
Child's sweet laughter, woman's touch
I can't say just what is real
All I know is what I feel
I know
The time it is today
And we must find our way
My heartbeat clearly states
The answer's not in hate
I once believed
That love was but a dream
But now I know
That love's a flowing stream
They're lyin', killin'
They're pushin' their rules
They tell you the prophets
All were just fools
But I know different
And I won't be used
It's they that are lost
It's they are confused
They are confused
They are confused
Sunrise, sunset
What you're born with is what you get
All your worries, all your fears
They don't change the passing years
I know

Come Sail Away
Come Sail Away
Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung
Originally performed by: Styx
Covered by various other artists
I'm sailing away set an open course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board I'm the captain so climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
And I'll try oh Lord I'll try to carry on
I look to the sea reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said
They said come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me

Road Without End
Road Without End
Composer(s): Ronald Stein
Performer(s): Randy Sparks
Looks like we're comin' into town
Seems like this train is slowin' down
Can't help but wonder what's in store
Could be I've been here once before
A-driftin'
The world is my friend
I'm travlin' along the road without end
Ridin' these rails town to town
Sometimes I think I'll settle down
But I know I'd hunger to be free
Rovin's the only life for me
A-driftin'
The world is my friend
I'm travlin' along the road without end

The Time Has Come
The Time Has Come
Composer(s): Les Vandyke
Performer(s): Adam Faith
The time has come for me to hang my head in shame
The time has come for me to say that I'm to blame
The time has come for love's return but it won't be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
The time has come to end this very sad affair
The time has come for you and I once more to share a summers kiss
But love's return won't ever be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
No more sorrows, no more cheating
Our tomorrows won't be repeating the past
So here am I to ask if you can still forgive
If you can love, the time has come for love to live
With no regrets, but take my word that love won't be the same
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again
Oh please believe me I won't make the same mistakes again

Covered by various other artists
I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river

It was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me
"Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't it be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

Road To Rio
Road To Rio
Composer(s): Al Blake
Performer(s): Canned Heat
Well, I was livin' on the road
Couldn't get a decent meal
My baby, she gave me a dirty deal
Now I'm hitchhikin' on the road to Rio
Tryin' to flag a ride from an automobile
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
I'm standing on the road right by the side
Nobody knows how many tears I've cried
I've even thought about suicide
I guess it must be time to take a ride
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
Standin' on the road right by the side
Watchin' all the cars keep passin' by
The sun's goin' down, but I don't mind
I'm gonna catch a ride if it takes all night
Won't somebody stop and let me ride?
Why don't you stop and let me ride?
Won't somebody let me ride?
I'm movin' on down the line
Now it was 2:00 am and I was high and dry
This beautiful chick gave me the eye
She opened the door and I slid by her side
And we headed on down the line
I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
Somebody finally let me ride
I'm so glad she stopped and let me ride
We're gonna boogie on down the line
Rio
One hundred miles ahead
We're gonna moving on down the line

Knowing you stand by me through good and bad
Makes all the difference in my life
And day by day, sweetheart, I find
These are the ties that bind

When simple joys bring peace of mind

You're all I need to see me through
Can I say more than this, my love?
I live just for your kiss, my love
I live just for your kiss, my love
Forever and a day, my love will live
Mmm, the flame of love will never die
So heart and soul please say you're mine
Held by the ties that bind

Prisonnière de tes bras
Come prima tu me donnes
Tant de joie!
Tu trouves mon chéri quand on est ensemble
Que rien ne semble m'intéresser
Comment prêter aux gens la moindre importance
Quand je ne pense qu'à t'embrasser...
Come prima tu me donnes
Tant de joie
Que personne ne m'en donne
Comme toi
C'est ta bouche qui m'apporte
Ma joie de vivre
Et ma chance c'est de vivre

Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
We're off on the road to Morocco
This camel is tough on the spine (hit me with a band-aid, Dad)
Where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure
I'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet Dorothy Lamour (yeah, get in line)
Off on the road to Morocco
Hang on till the end of the line (I like your jockey. Quiet)
I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
We'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)
We certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound
We're off on the road to Morocco
Well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
Stand by for a concussion
The men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
It seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
(shall I slip on my big shoes?)
Off on the road to Morocco
Hooray! Well blow a horn, everybody duck
Yeah. it's a green light, come on boys
We may run into villains but we're not afraid to roam
Because we read the story and we end up safe at home (yeah)
Certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound
We certainly do get around
Like a complete set of Shakespeare that you get
in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
We're Morocco bound
Or, like a volume of Omar Khayyam that you buy in the
department store at Christmas time for your cousin Julia
We're Morocco bound
(we could be arrested)
