THINK ABOUT YOUR TROUBLES, by Harry Nilsson Sit beside the breakfast table Think about your troubles Pour yourself a cup of tea And think about the bubbles You can take your teardrops And drop them in a teacup Take them down to the riverside And throw them over the side To be swept up by a current And taken to the ocean To be eaten by some fishes And swallowed by a whale Who grew so old He decomposed He died and left his body To the bottom of the ocean Now everybody knows That when a body decomposes The basic elements Are given back to the ocean And the sea does what it oughta And soon there's salty water (That's not too good for drinking) 'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop (So they run it through a filter) And it comes out from a faucet (And is poured into a teapot) Which is just about to bubble Now think about your troubles

THIS IS THE STORY OF THE HARE WHO LOST HIS SPECTACLES!, by Jethro Tull Owl loved to rest quietly whilst no one was watching. Sitting on a fence one day, he was surprised when suddenly A kangaroo ran close by. Now this may not seem strange, But when Owl overheard Kangaroo whisper to no one in particular, "The hare has lost his spectacles," well, he began to wonder. Presently, the moon appeared from behind a cloud, and there, Lying on the grass, was Hare. In the stream that flowed by The grass - a newt. And sitting astride a twig of a bush - a bee. Ostensibly motionless, the hare were trembling with excitement, For without his spectacles he was completely helpless. Where were his spectacles? Could someone have stolen them? Had he mislaid them? What was he to do? Bee wanted to help, And thinking he had the answer, began, "You probably Ate them thinking they were a carrot". "No!" interrupted Owl, Who was wise. "I have good eysight, insight, and foresight. How could an intelligent hare make such a silly mikstake?" But all this time, Owl had been sitting on the fence, scowling! Kangaroo were hopping mad at this sort of talk. She thought herself far superior in intelligence to the others. She was their leader, their guru. She had theanswer: "Hare, you must go in search of the optician." But then she Realized that Hare were completely helpless without his spectacles. And so, Kangaroo loudly proclaimed, "I can't send Hare in search of anything!" "You can, guru, you can!" shouted Newt. "You can send him with Owl." But Owl had gone to sleep. Newt knew too much to be stopped by so Small a problem: "You can take him in your pouch." But alas, Hare was much too big to fit into Kangaroo's pouch. All this time, it had been quite plain to Hare that the others Knew nothing about spectacles. As for all their tempting ideas, well Hare didn't care. The lost spectacles were his own affair. And after all, Hare did have a spare a-pair... A-pair...

THE WAY, by Fastball They made up their minds And they started packing They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking But where were they going Without ever knowing the way? They drank up the wine And they got to talking They now had more important things to say And when the car broke down They started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And it's always summer, They'll never get cold Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today, today The children woke up And they couldn't find them They left before the sun came up that day They just drove off And left it all behind 'em But where were they going without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And it's always summer, They'll never get cold Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today, today

WOODSTOCK, by Joni Mitchell I came upon a child of God He was walking along the road And I asked him, where are you going And this he told me I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm I'm going to join in a rock 'n' roll band I'm going to camp out on the land And try an' get my soul free We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden Then can I walk beside you I have come here to lose the smog And I feel to be a cog in something turning Well maybe it is just the time of year Or maybe it's the time of man I don't know who I am But life is for learning We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden By the time we got to Woodstock We were half a million strong And everywhere there was song and celebration And I dreamed I saw the bombers Riding shotgun in the sky And they were turning into butterflies Above our nation We are stardust (million year old carbon) We are golden (stuck in the devil's bargain) And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden

YEAR OF THE CAT, by Al Stewart On a morning from a Bogart movie In a country where they turn back time You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre Contemplating a crime She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running Like a watercolour in the rain Don't bother asking for explanations She'll just tell you that she came In the year of the cat She doesn't give you time for questions As she locks up your arm in hers And you follow 'till your sense of which direction Completely disappears By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls There's a hidden door she leads you to These days, she says, I feel my life Just like a river running through The year of the cat Well, she looks at you so cooly And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea She comes in incense and patchouli So you take her, to find what's waiting inside The year of the cat Well, morning comes and you're still with her And the bus and the tourists are gone And you've thrown away the choice and lost your ticket So you have to stay on But the drum-beat strains of the night remain In the rhythm of the new-born day You know sometime you're bound to leave her But for now you're going to stay In the year of the cat

YOUNG AT HEART Fairy tales can come true It can happen to you If you're young at heart. For it's hard you will find To be narrow of mind If you're young at heart. You can go to extremes With impossible schemes You can laugh when your dreams Fall apart at the seams. And life gets more exciting With each passing day. And love is either in your heart Or on it's way. Don't you know that it's worth Every treasure on earth To be young at heart. For as rich as you are It's much better by far If you're young at heart. And if you should survive To a hundred and five Look at all you'll derive Out of being alive. And here is the best part You'll have a head start If you are among The very young at heart.
