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.
