Lyrics


1. WALK ON BY

If you see me walking down the streets
And i start to cry
Each time we meet

Walk on by
Aahh walk on by
Make believe
I can see the tears
Now let me grieve in private
Cause each time i see you
I just want to cry
Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by

I just cant get over losing you
And so if i seem so broken in pieces

Walk on by
Aah walk on by
With foolish pride
If i cant see the tears
Let me hide
From the tears and the sadness
You gave me
When you said goodbye

Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by
Just go for a stroll in the trees

Walk on by
Aahh walk on by
And make believe
That i cant see the tears
Now let me grieve in private
Cause each time i see you
I break down and cry
Walk on by
Walk on by


2. OLD CODGER

What an old codger I am (6x)

Communion's got a lot of grace
It's got style and bread and wine
But they're not mine!
You know what I like!

What an old codger I am (6x)

I may be long in tooth and jaw
But I've got a lot of nerve
When it comes to an angel boy
Pray for me!

What an old codger I am (6x)

When the choir is singing in the aisles
And the moon tomes up over the steeple
I might just turn into a bol-weevil
And creep up on you with my beef-jerky!

Hey baby!
We're gonna shave 'em dry
You know what shave 'em dry is?
You'll learn!
Mmmm, that's good, that's good!
That's very good!
Just close your eyes baby and think of England!
Well why not?
I always keep my socks on!


3. TANK

I Can Sign For 1 2 3 Or 4
Get Three Weeks Off In A Year Or More
Save Up And Get My Very Own SLR
Cos I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank

Can You Seen The Bullet's High Velocity
It Can Blow A Man's Arm Off At The Count Of Three
If I Get My Hands On One Of Those
I'm Something To Watch Out For
I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can
Yes I Can

Don't Care Whereabouts They Send Me Now
Send Pictures Postcards To My Old Mother And Father
So When I Come Home They'll Have Someone To Be Proud Of
I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Drive (Drive) My Very Own Tank
Yes I Can Maim (Maim)
