Let me play among the stars
Let me see what Spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
#01)

Other eyes see the stars up in the skies
But for me they shine within your eyes
#02)

Now if you look up in the sky 
YouŽll understand the reason why 
The little stars at night are all aglow 
He turns them on when night is here 
#03)

You'll never, never, never reach the sky
He smiles at the young soldiers
Tells them it's all right
He knows of their fear in the forthcoming fight
Soon there'll be blood and many will die
Mothers and fathers back home they will cry
#04)

I might get burned up by the sun
But I'll have my fun
I've been loved and put aside
I've been crushed by a tumbling tide
And my soul's been psychedelicized
#05)

Hand in hand as we stand ‘neath the old campus moon
Make believe that tomorrow is here
Picture me close to you in a dream house for two
Where the ivy grows greener each year
#06)

Well I feel like a man in outer space
I'm acting like a psycho case
Hey girl, stop this feeling
Look at me, you got me rockin' and a-reelin'
#07)

Tonight mister moon, shines his light
Tonight be mine, let me hold you tight
Tonight your lips, glisten so bright
I think you're gonna be my girl
#08)

I guess you're lonely now
Love's comin' to an end
But, darling, only now
Are you free to start again
Lift up your pretty chin
Don't let those tears begin
#09)

Come to me tonight
Come to me tonight
I've taken everything in sight
Except for the strings on my kite
#10)

Like a toy balloon that's filled
With as much air as it can take
One more cup of air  
And that balloon has got to break
#11)

Rhythm and blues was their name
Oh, rhythm and blues was their name
Well, they romp and stomp and rock 'n' roll
You can't stop them to save your soul
Rhythm and blues was their name
#12)

Seventeen, I fell in love with a girl as sweet as could be
It only took a couple of days 'til she was rid of me 
She swore that she would be all mine and love me 'til the end
But when I whispered in her ear, I lost another friend
#13)

You drive me crazy, baby, with your magic touch
You make me feel so good when the moon is shinin' bright
With our lips together and you're squeezin' me so tight
#14)

Way down, way down along the stream
How very, very sweet it will seem
Once more just to dream
In the silvery moonlight
#15)

We're in love and above there's a crazy gold balloon
That sits winkin' down
And invitin' us to come on in
#16)

Hi diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
And on the way down she met a turtle dove
#17)

A thousand stars in the sky
Were shining up above
I'll never forget the night that we met
How we stood there pledging our love
#18)

I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
#19)

First star I see tonight
Can't you hear my plea to you
Won't you make my dreams come true
#20)

Ice cream, daydream
'Til the sky becomes a blanket of stars
What a day for pickin' daisies
And lots of red balloons
#21)

Life is too short to worry about unimportant things 
(Unimportant things) 
Reach for the sky and touch your star 
And then youŽll find your dream (find your dream)
#22)

We have got to get it together now
#23)

Birds high up in the trees 
Serenade the clouds with their melodies
#24)

When you're feeling tired and lonely 
You see people going home
You can't make the train fare
Or the six-pence for the phone
And icicles you're crying down your cheek have just begun
Don't be sad, good times are had
#25)

The knights they toast the tournament
The falcons they fly above
But the queen will a-drink of the dew tonight
But the jester, she cries alone
Because Merlin spoke of an instant spell
To make the devil's white knights moan
And-a all in all, the seagull said
As I look to where I've been,
"The whole wide human race
Has a-taken far too much Methedrine"
#T1)

Mrs. Applebee pulled down the shade 
And retired to her cozy bed
Peter Dennings crossed the street, 
Turned his back and just a-shook his head
Officer Warner, 'round the corner,
Sipping coffee and a-making time
He never heard the sounds of violence
Emanating from the crime
#T2)
