| Babooshka
She wanted to test her husband.
She knew exactly what to
do:
A pseudonym to fool him.
She couldn't have made a
worse move.
She sent him scented letters,
And he received them with
a strange delight.
Just like his wife
But how she was before the
tears,
And how she was before the
years flew by,
And how she was when she
was beautiful.
She signed the letter
"All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"
She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place
to go,
To see if he
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on
her,
He got the feeling they
had met before.
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little
lady,
Capacity to give him all
he needs,
Just like his wife before
she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when
she was beautiful.
He shouted out, "I'm
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"
This Women Work
Pray God you can cope.
I stand outside this woman's
work,
This woman's world.
Ooh, it's hard on the man,
Now his part is over.
Now starts the craft of
the father.
I know you have a little
life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of
strength left.
I know you have a little
life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of
strength left.
I should be crying, but I
just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but
I can't stop thinking
Of all the things I should've
said,
That I never said.
All the things we should've
done,
That we never did.
All the things I should've
given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.
Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.
(I know you have a little
life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of
strength left.
I know you have a little
life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of
strength left.)
I should be crying, but I
just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but
I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've
said,
That were never said.
All the things we should've
done,
That we never did.
All the things that you
needed from me.
All the things that you
wanted for me.
All the things that I should've
given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go away.
Just make it go away now. |
Wuthering
Heights
Out on the wiley, windy moors
We'd roll and fall in green.
You had a temper like my
jealousy:
Too hot, too greedy.
How could you leave me,
When I needed to possess
you?
I hated you. I loved you,
too.
Bad dreams in the night.
They told me I was going
to lose the fight,
Leave behind my wuthering,
wuthering
Wuthering Heights.
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Ooh, it gets dark! It gets
lonely,
On the other side from you.
I pine a lot. I find the
lot
Falls through without you.
I'm coming back, love.
Cruel Heathcliff, my one
dream,
My only master.
Too long I roam in the night.
I'm coming back to his side,
to put it right.
I'm coming home to wuthering,
wuthering,
Wuthering Heights,
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Ooh! Let me have it.
Let me grab your soul away.
Ooh! Let me have it.
Let me grab your soul away.
You know it's me--Cathy!
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
Let me in-a-your window.
Heathcliff, it's me--Cathy.
Come home. I'm so cold!
