What Did You Say?

What Did You Say?

What did you say?
What did you do?
I ask you what —
Oh, what did you say?
What should we do?
The next song we play for you?
Tell me what —
What did you say?

(Your taxes are due!)

Likeable

Likeable

I hear you complain everyday
Pepole look at you and think you're insane
What's the problem, what's your game?

I really think you should be more like me
'Cause traveling's easy when you're likeable, like me

Life is easy when you likeable
When your likeable, life's a breeze
And life is easy when you're likeable —like me!

All The Things That You Do

All The Things That You Do

I really don't know, what I'm supposed to do
It never before appeared to be so
Buti it's true —It's all the things that you do

You've got a hold, got a hold on me
Steal the show, capturing me
And you don't really see…
All the things you do —to me

Said hey!  What's the story?
You got me tied up in knots
And feeling like exploding
Now I'm taking my time, I'm waiting in line
Te me the words, does it fit poorly?
Oh!  All the things that you do
I'm waiting for you to inform me…

Uptight

Uptight

Hey, what goes on tonight
Say, it isn't alright
Why is everyone so uptight?

Never needed your social life
Needed nothing to survive
Never needed no crying minds
I've lived without it, an I'm doing fine
Why is everybody, everybody so, so, so, so, so uptight?
