Supertramp - Live in Paris 1979

School

I can see you in the morning when you got to school,

Don't forget your books, you know you'vze got to learn the golden rule,

Teachers tells you stop your play and get on with your work

And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks

- he's coming along !

After School is over you're playing in the park

Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark

They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about

And grow up just like them

- won't you let it work out

- and you're full of doubt

Don't do this and don't do that

What are they trying to do ?

-Make a good boy of you

Do they know where it's at ?

Don't criticise, they're old and wise

Do as they tell you to

Don't want the devil to

Come and put out your eyes

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight

Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right

But while I am still living, I've just got this to say

It's always up to you if you want to be that

want to see that

want to see it that way

-you're comin' along!

Bloody well right

So you think your schoolings phoney

I guess its hard not to agree

You say it all depends on money

And who is in your family tree

Right, youre bloody well right

You know you got a right to say

Right, youre bloody well right

You know you got a right to say

Ha-ha youre bloody well right

You know youre right to say

Yeah-yeah youre bloody well right

You know youre right to say

Me, I dont care anyway!

Write your problems down in detail

Take them to a higher place

Youve had your cry - no, I should say wail

In the meantime hush your face

Right (right), youre bloody well right

You got the bloody right to say

Right, youre bloody well right

You know you got a right to say

Ha-ha youre bloody well right

Yes, you know youre right to say

Yeah, yeah youre bloody well right

You know youre right to say

You got the bloody right to say

You got the bloody right to say

You got the bloody right to say

You got the bloody right to say

The logical song

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,

a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.

And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,

joyfully, playfully watching me.

But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,

logical, responsible, practical.

And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,

clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep,

the questions run too deep

for such a simple man.

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned

I know it sounds absurd

but please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,

liberal, fanatical, criminal.

Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're

acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

There are night, when all the world's asleep,

the questions run so deep

for such a simple man.

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned

I know it sounds absurd

but please tell me who I am.

who I am.

who I am.

who I am.

Goodbye stranger

It was an early morning yesterday

I was up before the dawn

And I really have enjoyed my stay

But I must be moving on

Like a king without a castle

Like a queen without a throne

I'm an early morning lover

And I must be moving on

Now I believe in what you say

Is the undisputed truth

But I have to have things my own way

To keep me in my youth

Like a ship without an anchor

Like a slave without a chain

Just the thought of those sweet ladies

Sends a shiver through my veins

And I will go on shining

Shining like brand new

I'll never look behind me

My troubles will be few

Goodbye stranger it's been nice

Hope you find your paradise

Tried to see your point of view

Hope your dreams will all come true

Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane

Will we ever meet again

Feel no sorrow, feel no shame

Come tomorrow, feel no pain

Now some they do and some they don't

And some you just can't tell

And some they will and some they won't

With some it's just as well

You can laugh at my behavior

That'll never bother me

Say the devil is my savior

But I don't pay no heed

And I will go on shining

Shining like brand new

I'll never look behind me

My troubles will be few

Goodbye stranger it's been nice

Hope you find your paradise

Tried to see your point of view

Hope your dreams will all come true

Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane

Will we ever meet again

Feel no sorrow, feel no shame

Come tomorrow, feel no pain

Breakfast in america

Take a look at my girlfriend

She's the only one I got

Not much of a girlfriend

Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water

Like to see America

See the girls in California

I'm hoping it's going to come true

But there's not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast

Mummy dear, Mummy dear

They got to have 'em in Texas

Cos everyone's a millionaire

I'm a winner, I'm a sinner

Do you want my autograph ?

I'm a loser, what a joker

I'm playing my jokes upon you

While there's nothing better to do

Don't you look at my girlfriend

She's the only one I got

Not much of a girlfriend

Never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo cross the water

Like to see America

See the girls in California

I'm hoping it's going to come true

But there's not a lot I can do

Hide in your shell

Hide in your shell cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride

What will you gain making your life a little longer?

Heaven or Hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel?

Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker

Too Frightening to listen to a stranger

Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger

You're waiting for someone to understand you

But you've got demons in your closet

And you're screaming out to stop it

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now

Cos it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost

To get your heartback and on the road

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know.

All through the night as you like awake and hold yourself so tight

What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you?

I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love

How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?

Too Frightening- the fire's getting colder

Too Beautiful- to think you're getting older

You're waiting for someone to give an answer.

But what you see is just an illusion

You're surrounded by confusion

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now

Cos it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know

Let me show you the nearest signpost

To get your heart back and on the road

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know

Cose I wanna know you

I want to know you

I wanna learn you

I Want to know, want to know

Want to know you

just let me know you

Well let me know you

I wanna know you

I wanna feel you

I wanna touch you

Please let me near you

Let me near you

Can you hear what I'm saying?

Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin', I'm prayin'

I know what you're thinkin'

I see what you're seein'

Never ever let yourself go

Hold yourself down, hold yourself down

Why d'ya hold yourself down?

Why don't you listen, you can trust me

There's a place I know the way to

A place there is need to

to feel you

Feel that you're alone

I want you to hear me

I know exactly what you're feelin'

cos all your troubles are whithin you

please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to

Love me, love you

Loving is the way to

Why must we be so cool

oh so cool,?

Oh, we're such damn fools...

Oh, we're such damn fools...

Oh, we're such damn fools...

Asylum

Jimmy Cream was keen,

His brain was always winnin',

I cant keep tabs on mine-its really quite a joke.

I see him down the road,

I ask if he'd be willing

to lend me 15p-I'm dieing for a smoke.

Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,

It's just a game I play for fun-for fun.

I've been foolin' everyone, everyone

I told em-look!-I said I'm not the way your thinkin'.

Just when I'm down I'll be the clown, I'll play the fool.

Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,

It's just a game I play for fun

I've been foolin' everyone, everyone.

Will he take a sailboat ride?

He is very likely to,

Will he feel good inside?

He ain't very likely to,

Will he tell you he's alive?

He is always trying to,

But nothin', no nothin' does he say

In the morning when the day's begun

-"hello, good morning, how are you?"

And in the evening of a noonday sun

-"What a lovely afternoon!"

Well I've been living next to you.

Bluesy Monday is the on day that they came here,

When they haunt me adn they taunt me in my cage.

I mock them all, they're feelin' small, they got no answer

They're playing dumb but I'm just laughing as they rage

Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,

It's just a game I play for fun

I've been foolin' everyone-everyone.

Will he take a sailboat ride?

He is very likely to

Will he feel good inside?

He ain't ever likely to

Will he tell you he's alive?

He is always been tryin' to

But nothin', no nothin' does he ever say

In the morning when the day's begun

-"Do you think it looks like rain"?

And in the evening or the noonday sun

-"you know I nearly missed the train"

Well I've been living next to you, my friend

But what kind of friend are you?

Is it the beginning or the sorry end?

Will I ever see it through?

I've never been insane

Oh what's the game?

I believe I'm dieing...

He's mad, mad, mad...

Not quite right...

OOoooooooooooooo.............

Even in the quietest moments

Even in the quietest moments

I wish I knew what I had to do

And even though the sun is shining

Well I feel the rain

here it comes again, dear

And even when you showed me

My heart was out of tune

For there's a shadow of doubt that's not letting me find you too soon

The music that you gave me

The language of my soul

Oh Lord, I want to be with you.

Won't you let me come in from the cold?

Don't you let the sun fade away

Don't you let the sun fade away

Don't you let the sun be leaving

Won't you come to me soon

And even though the stars are listening

And the ocean's deep,

I just go to sleep

And then I create a silent movie

You become the star,

is that what you are, dear?

Your whisper tells a secret

Your laughter brings me joy

And a wonder of feeling I'm Nature's own little boy

But still the tears keep falling

They're raining from the sky

Well there's a lot of me got to go under before I get high

Don't you let the sun disappear

Don't you let the sun disappear

Don't you let the sun be leaving

Come to me

Come to me soon

And even when the song is over

Where have I been --- was it just a dream?

And though your door is always open

Where do I begin --- may I please come in, dear?

Give a little bit

Ooh yea

Dreamer

Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no

I said "Far out, what a day, a year, a laugh it is"

You know, well you know you had it comin' to you

I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer

Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no, oh no

Rudy

Rudy's on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line

He don't wanna get there, but he needs time

He ain't sophisticated, nor well-educated

After all the hours he wasted, still he needs time.

He needs time - he needs time for livin',

He needs time - for someone just to see him.

He ain't had no lovin'

For no reason or rhyme

And the whole world's above him.

Well it's not as though he's fat-

No there's more to it than that-

See he tried to play it cool-

Wouldn't be nobodys fool.

Rudy thought that all good things comes to those that wait

But recently he could see that it may come too late.

All through your life, all through the years

Nobody loved, nobody cared.

So dim the light, dark are your fears

Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears

How can you live without love, it's not fair?

Someone said give but I just didn't care. I didn't dare,

What good advice are you waiting to hear?

Hearing's alright for them that's all there

Hearing's alright...

You'd better gain control now

You'd better show'em all now

You'd better make or break now

You'd better give and take now

You'll have to push and shove now

You'll have to find some love now

You'd better gain control now.

Now he's just come out the movie.

Numb of all the pain,

Sad but in a while he'll soon be

Back on his train...

Take the long way home

So you think you're a Romeo,

playing a part in a picture-show

We take the long way home, take the long way home

Cos you're the joke of the neighbourhood,

why should you care if you're feeling good

Take the long way home, take the long way home

There are times that you feel you're part of the scenery,

all the greenery is comin' down boy

Then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture,

oh it's peculiar, she used to be so nice

Lonely days turn to lonely nights,

you take a trip to the city lights

And take the long way home, take the long way home

You never see what you want to see,

forever playing to the gallery

You take the long way home, take the long way home

When you're up on the stage it's so unbelievable,

unforgettable, how they adore you

But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,

oh calamity, well is there no way out?

Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe,

oh it has to be for you to grow boy

When you look through the years and see what you could have been,

oh what might have been if you'd had more time

So when the day comes to settle down,

who's to blame if you're not around?

You took the long way home, you took the long way home,

you took the long way home (Same thing again)

You took the long way home, you took the long way home (For luck),

you took the long way home

You took the long way home, long way home

Long way home, long way home,

long way home, long way home,

long way home.

Another man's woman

If there's no way of knowing where's the answer,

You should know if you need me by now, tell me how.

You saw me in the first place,

Who d'you think I am?

How can you be so two-faced?

And tell me where I stand.

Yeah, we've been here once before,

I see you by the door,

You said you knew all and were calling,

Yeah, you know you just can't lose,

All you have to do is choose, let me in on where your heart is.

You ain't nothing but another man's woman,

Living on another man's land;

At night I hear a hound dog callin',

A callin' me a cheatin' man.

I tell you somethin', I need good lovin', but you don't understand,

At night I see you cannonball comin'

To blow me to the promised land.

If there's no-way of showing where your love lies,

Is it me?, is it him?, or no-one;

What will be done?

About the mess you made me,

Oh don't you give a damn,

You're gonna drive me crazy,

It's more than I can stand,

'Round and 'round we always go

First it's yes and then it's no,

Oh whatever keeps me sane?

I'm so helpless, can't you see?

Did you cast a spell on me,

Say you love me please, I'm praying

You ain't nothing but another man's woman,

Living on another man's land;

At night I hear a hound dog callin',

A callin' me a cheatin' man.

I tell you somethin', I need good lovin', but you don't understand,

At night I see you cannonball comin'

To blow me to the promised land.

Child of vision

Well, who do you think you're foolin'?

You say you're havin' fun,

But you're busy going nowhere,

Just lying in the sun.

You tried to be a hero,

Commit the perfect crime

But the dollar got you dancing

And you're running out of time.

You're messin' up the water

You're rolling in the wine

You're poisoning your body

You're poisoning your mind

You gave me coca-cola

You said it tasted good

You watch the television

It tell you that you should.

How can you live in this way?

You must have something to say.

There must be more to this life.

It's time we did something right.

Child of Vision, won't you listen?

Find yourself a new ambition.

I've heard it all before

You're saying nothing new

I thought I saw a rainbow

But I guess it wasn't true

You cannot make me listen

I cannot make you hear

You find your way to heaven,

I'll meet you when you're there.

How can you live in this way?

You must have something to say.

We have no reason to fight,

Cos we both know that we're right.

Child of Vision, won't you listen?

Find yourself a new ambition.

Fool's ouverture

History recalls how great the fall can be

While everybody's sleeping, the boats put out to sea

Borne on the wings of time

It seemed the answers were so easy to find

"Too late," the prophets cry

The island's sinking, let's take to the sky

Called the man a fool, striped him of his pride

Everyone was laughing up until the day he died

And though the wound went deep

Still he's calling us out of our sleep

My friends, we're not alone

He waits in silence to lead us all home

So tell me that you find it hard to grow

Well I know, I know, I know

And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow

Well I know, I know, I know

Can you hear what I'm saying

Can you see the parts that I'm playing

"Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie,

Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed Meanie"

So you found your solution

What will be your last contribution?

"Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy?

Give it out, dish it out, let's go crazy,

Yeah!"

Two of us

Look at me I'm a speck of sand,

And I'm building ,dreams in a strangers land

Tell me why do I care

Tell me why do I care.

Every time that I'm feeling down, oh they,

Pick me up and they spin me round.

Tell me where do we go,

Tell me where do we go from here.

When is man gonna find out (find out)

When are we gonna find out (find out)

What the universe is just waiting to here,

Just as long as there's two of us

Just as long as there's two of us

Just as long as there's two of us,

We'll carry on.

Crime of the century

Now they're planning the crime of the century

Well what will it be?

Read all about their schemes and adventuring

It's well worth a fee

So roll up and see

And they rape the universe

How they've gone from bad to worse

Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?

Rip off the masks and let's see.

But that's not right - oh no, what's the story?

There's you and there's me

From now on

Monday has come around again

I'm in the same old place,

the same old faces always watching me

Who knows how long I'll have to stay?

Could be a hundred years of sweat and tears

at the rate that I get paid

Sometimes I slowly drift away

from all the dull routine

that's with me every day

A fantasy will come to me

Diamonds are what I really need

Think I'll rob a store,

escape the law and live in Italy

Lately my luck has been so bad

You know the roulette wheel's

a crooked deal, I'm loosing all I had

Soon be like a man that's on the run

and live from day to day, never needing anyone

Play hide and seek throughout the week
