NEW YORK ONLY TALK ©BIRCH/LOWE 1998.
In Springsteen’s early words
I went to work with vocal chords
When Miss Young And Mini-Skirted
Flirted into view
In New York only talk
I made a pass at sexy walk
But Miss Young And Very Lonely
Only
wanted true
& LOOKIN' FASCINATIN' IS ONLY SURFACE PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS REHASHIN'
INSISTED MR SKINNY WRISTED
The error of my ways
Pointed out the man on stage
Was Miss Young And Very Lonely
Only wanted true
& LOOKIN' FASCINATING' IS ONLY SURFACE PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS REHASHIN'
PERSISTED MR SKINNY WRISTED
I got her the next day
By being very , very (very) plain
Seems Mr Skinny Wristed
Insisted the truth.
repeat 4 ......
LOOKIN' FASCINATEIN' IS ONLY SURFACE
PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS
REHASHIN'
LOOKIN' FASCINATEIN' IS ONLY SURFACE
PAINTIN'
ANYTHING IN FASHION IS YESTERDAYS
REHASHIN'
CERTAIN SMILE (C)J.BIRCH/M.MARTIN 1997.
Ch.
I’m looking for that certain smile
That I will find I don’t know where
or when
Maybe someday and sometime
There will be a smile for me
Br.
And so it’s one more mile
Without that certain smile
Until I reach that certain smile
I’ll be lost a while
I’m looking forward to that certain
smile
That will make my world go round and
round
Maybe someday and sometime
There will be a smile for me
And so it’s one more mile
Without that certain smile
Getting closer, getting further
To that certain smile
And so it’s one more mile
Without that certain smile
Until I reach that certain smile
I’ll be lost a while
(rpt. Ch. & Br.)
I’m looking for that certain smile.
