"Walk On The Wild Side"

Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows along the way
shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
Candy came from out on the island
in the backroom she was everybody's darling
But she never lost her head even when she was given head


She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild sideand the coloured girls go
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo)


Little Joe never once gave it away
everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York city is the place where they said
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
Said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side


Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
lookin' for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo you should have seen him go go go
They said, hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild sideI
said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side


all right,


Jackie is just speeding away
thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
valium would have helped that dash
She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild sideI
said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
and the coloured girls say
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doodoo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo)

"Perfect Day"

Just a perfect day
Drink sangria in the park
And then later
When it gets dark
We go home

Just a perfect day
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later, a movie, too
And then home

Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh! such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on

Just a perfect day
Problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
It's such fun

Just a perfect day
You made me forget myself
I thought I was someone else
Someone good

Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh! such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on

You're going to reap just what you sow (x4)

Oh! What a perfect day
