The Bells

With you, life moves so fast
With you, everything's a mess
Slow down

Don't you think you could be less capricious
I'm not you, i don't have no death wish
Slow down
Slow down

With you, there is no denying
It's you, not my lack of trying
With you, everybody's lying
It's you, it's not me who's crying
Crying, crying
Crying, crying

With you, stay and hold tightly from the streets
With you, every friend's a possible beat
Slow down
Slow down

With you, it's a foregone conclusion
With you, envy, it's all a delusion
With you, i can have no illusions
It's you, who has the contusions
Crying, crying
Crying, crying

With you, everyone's a sucker
With you, it's fuckee or fucker
Slow down
Slow down

With you, life is just a scramble
With you, every day is a gamble
With you, i can't forget life barely
With you, playing the virgin mary
And your crying, crying
Crying, crying
Crying, crying

Disco, disco mystic
Disco, disco mystic
Disco, disco mystic

... repeat

Stupid man, hitch-hiking out of a good life
In saskatchewan
And he thinks he's got big-big planes
Gonna build a house upon some land

Oh casey, don't it make you crazy
Oh, when you're living all alone by that damp water
Oh casey, don't it make you crazy
When you're living all alone by those still waters

Please say hello, please say hello
To my little baby daughter
Oh casey, tell her that her father's gonna be coming home
So soon, so soon to see her

Well i'm shooting down the turnpike
With a driver doing ninety-five or maybe
More don't you think he's loaded drunk
Or that he thinks that life's a bore
Casey, oh casey, don't you know how it makes me so damn crazy
Living all alone by those waters

But please say hello, but please say hello
To my little baby daughter
Please, please, won't you just give her a great big kiss
Then tell her that her stupid daddy will be coming home soon

Oh casey, oh casey, don't you know i make me so damn crazy
When i was living there all alone by those still waters
But please tell, please tell my baby-baby-baby daughter
That i'm tied up now, but i'll be home soon
And i'll be the daddy that i oughta

Please say hello, oh casey, please say hello
From a stupid man
Still my little baby daughter a big-big-big kiss
And tell her that her daddy will be coming home soon
But casey, don't you know i make me so damn crazy
When i was living there all alone
But won't you please give my, give my baby daughter
A great big stupid kiss
And tell her that her stupid father will be coming home soon
Stupid man

Don't you feel so lonely when it's in the afternoon
And you gotta face it
All through the night
Don't it make you believe
That something's gonna have to happen soon
Oh baby, all through the night

All through the night
Oh baby, all through the night
All through the night
All through the night

Have you ever played with an all night band
And gone trough it, baby
All through the night
When the daytime descends in a night time of hell
Everybody's gone to look for a bell to ring
All through the night
And they do it, all through the night
Babe, all through the night
When the words were donw and the poetry comes
And the novel's written and the book is done
You said, oh lord, lover, baby, give it to me
All through the night
And she says it

My best friend sally, she got sick
And i'm feeling mighty ill myself it happens all the time
And all through the night
I went to saint vincent's and i'm watching the ceiling
Fall down on her body as she's lying round on the ground
Said, oh babe, gotta celebrate all through the night
Feel so sad i cried all through the night
I said, oh jesus, all through the night
If the sinners sin and the good man's gone
And a woman can't come and help him home
And what you're gonna do about it
When they go on all through the night
And they sing, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby
All through the night
And he says, give it to me all through the night
It ain't so much when a man's gotta cry
Give a little loving and some peace of mind
I said, hey babe, give it to me all through the night

And some people wait for things that never come
And some people dream of things they've never been done
They do it, oh baby, all through the night
The city's funny and the country's quiet
But i'd wanna know why they don't have a riot
Why don't they do it, baby, all through the night
Ooohhh mama, ooohhh mama, tell me 'bout it
All through the night
I want to have it all through the night
If christmas comes only once a year
Why can't anybody shed just one tear
For things that don't happen all through the night
Ooohhh mama, all through the night
Oh baby, do it to me all through the night
Easy, easy, baby, why don't you give it to -
- me all through the night

Hey pretty baby
Don't you think you might give me a chance
Get it on with me
Go downtown for some love and romance
And i know i ain't nothing
I ain't worth but a thin dime
But if you put your heart in my hands
I'm sure that i could change your mind

I wanna boogie with you
Yeah, i wanna boogie with you

There's something, baby, that your parents
Both agreed
And that is that they both had it
Deep distrust for me
And your best friend frankie
Well i know your best friend frankie, he wants to see me sink
And i don't much blame him for that
He gets so useless after so few drinks, you know, baby

I wanna boogie with you
I wanna boogie with you

Well i know your little baby sister
She thinks that i'm a flop
But i guess that you know that it's true
I spent more time at the bottom than the top
Tell your little sister
I know she wants to give me a whirl
But i don't have the time, baby
To wait till she's grown up and she's a woman, not a girl

Don't you know i wanna boogie with you
Hey, i wanna boogie with you
I wanna boogie with you
I wanna boogie with you, yeah

Boogie with you
Down on the corner
Boogie with you, yeah
