I say oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family
Oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family

Down in Trinidad there was a family
With much confusion as you will see
A mama and a papa and a boy who was grown
He wanted to marry and have a wife of his own
He found a girl she suited him nice
He went to his father to ask his advice
His father said: "Son, I have to say no,
The girl is your sister, but your mama don't know"

Oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family
I say oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family

Then a week went by and the summer came down
Soon the best girl on the island he found
He went to his papa to make it a date
His papa shook his head and to this he did say
"You Can't marry that girl I have to say no
Cause the girl is your sister, but your mama don't know"

Oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family
I say oh, misery
It's shame and scandal in the family

He went to his mama, he covered his head
He told his mum what his father had said
His mother she laughed,
she said: "Go man, go
Your daddy ain't your daddy, but your daddy don't know"

Oh, misery
It's shame and scandal in the family
Oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family
I say oh, misery
Shame and scandal in the family
I say oh, misery

Why should you try to be much taller than you are
Why do you try to hang a little out so far
You say you're right, when you are wrong
And though you're weak, you believe you're strong

Why should you try to be much taller than you are

You are always, telling people you are the best
But it's not so, when they put you to the test
So come on, let's be fair and square
Take what is yours, but please leave my share

Why should you try to be much taller than you are
O-oh!

You will never reach the top like that, my friend
And though you think your up, you will fall down, in the end
It is time for you to realise
And try and be your little size

Why should you try to be much taller than you are [x3]

Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out my life, why don't you babe
Cause you don't really need me
You just keep me hanging on

Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out my life, why don't you babe
Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

Why do you keep coming around
Playing with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a brand new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me,
Yeah!

Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out my life, why don't you babe
Cause you don't really need me
You just keep me hanging on

Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out my life, why don't you babe
Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging on

Why don't you be a woman about it
And set me free
Cause you don't, can't rethink about me
You're just using me

Set me free, set me free
Just set me free babe

Just set me free, just set me free
Just set me free babe
[x3]

Poor me, israelites

Get up in the morning slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed

Poor me, israelites

My wife and my kids they are packed up and leave me
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen

Poor me, israelites

Well, shirt them a tear-up, trousers are gone
I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde

Poor me, israelites

And after a storm there must be a calm
They catch me in your farm, you sound your alarm

Poor me, israelites

I get up in the morning slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed

Poor me, israelites

My wife and my kids they are packed up and leave me
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen

Poor me, israelites

Shirt them a tear-up, trousers are gone
I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde

Poor me, israelites [x5]

I met her in a club down in Old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola
See-o-l-a cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, Lola
L-o-l-a Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight, she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola L-o-l-a Lola

And I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walks like a woman and talks like a man
Lola L-o-l-a Lola la-la-la-la Lola

We drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said, "little boy, won't you come home with me"

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes I almost fell for my Lola
L-o-l-a Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola L-o-l-a Lola la-la-la-la Lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well, that's the way that I wanted to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
Lo-la Lola

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shooked up world except for Lola
Lo-la la-la-la-la Lola

Well, I left home just a week ago
And I'd never kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said little boy I'm gonna make you a man

Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am, I'm glad I'm man
And so is Lola

Listen to the pouring rain
Listen to it pour
And with every drop of rain
You know I love you more
Let it rain all night long
Let my love for you go strong
As long as we`re together
Who cares about the weather?
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it fall
And with every drop of rain
I can hear you call
Call my name right out loud
I can here above the clouds
And I`m here among the puddles
You and I together huddle.
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it rain.
...
Listen to the pouring rain
Listen to it pour
And with every drop of rain
I can hear you call
Call my name right out loud
I can here above the clouds
And I`m here among the puddles
You and I together huddle.
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to the rain.
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it rain.
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it rain.
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it rain.
Listen to it rain.
