Boys and Girls

No

Turned me down on a pate of ice
Through frozen, clear streams of blah, blah,blah
Idle talk, she's talking
Pentangle she can recollect
Lay the bent to the bonnie boon
All this talk of my disrespect

Refrain:
He said, "I respect your occupation
In this vacuum of stagnation
I understand the horror of your thought
What his knowledge of you brought"
He turned me down, he said,
"no, mama, no, mama, no,no,no"
He turned me down, he said,
"no, mama, no, mama, no,no,no"

Brought down from the level of idyllic class
She was crawlin' to "Big Daddy" over broken
glass-
She was turned down straight,
She's a woman turned to stone
He said, "Thankyou for your permission,
Ma'am, I have to, No"

Refrain:

Brought down from a trip of rainbow pain,
With nothin' real to live for
And only a life of her own to gain-
To see herself bein' left out in the rain
To have an awful feeling she had lived
And loved in vain.

Refrain:

Help me Make it Through the Night


I got a letter in the mail today
She said she loves me more than words can say
But I feel I'm slipping back
To a loss of heart attack

Refrain:
Help me feel it, help me feel it,
Help me feel it,
Help me Make it through the Night

Alot of people do not trust me mind
Their confrontations are not always kind
But the truth must be exposed
Like a garden has to grow

Refrain:

Now to commitment my bright red hat I toff
If I broke it, it would turn you off
But since I can't have you
Don't matter what I do

Refrain:

Now if I want to, I can change my script
I think my spirit's speaking from the crypt
But the gypsy says I'll find
Some real peace of mind

Refrain:
