Jungle
I was standing in the jungle, I was feeling alright
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm
I was wondering in the darkness, in the middle of the night
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm
The moon began to shine, I saw a clearing ahead
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm
But whats that going on, I think Im outta my head
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm.
Chorus:
Chooka chooka hoo la ley
Looka looka koo la ley.
A hundred animals were gathered round in the night
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm
And they were singing out a lovely song under the pale moonlight
Mmmhmmm, mmmhmmm
I stood and stared for quite a while
Then a lion sang to me and smiled:
Come join us if you so desire.
Repeat chorus
I said now please explain the meaning of this song you sing

Breakin Down The Walls
Talk is cheap, but it cant pay
For all the hurt you threw my way
Oh, no - oh, no
Love is blind but I can see
Youre trying to make a fool of me
I know - I know
Sometimes I feel just like Im running on ice
I might slip and slide girl
But you wont hurt me twice, oh no
Chorus
No matter what you say
Youll never stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
No matter what you do
You just cant stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
Love is passion, love is pain
The heat is on, were all insane
I know, I know
Life is bitter, life is sweet

Thousand Eyes
Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And theyre all on you
The night has a thousand ears
Listening to your cries
Let it work its magic
Let it work its magic
The night has a thousand eyes
Verse 1
You, you had to slip away
After all that spark
You, said all that you could say
And slipped into the dark
I could not let you go
Alone into the night
I had to let you know
The magic there, in the night air
Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And theyre all on you

Across The Border
Ive been workin so hard, baby,
Tryin to get to you.
Im gonna be there soon because
In the heat of the day many miles away
When the sun is beating down upon the main street
Ill be waiting here at the station,
I gotta move down the line.
Theyll be dancin and singin and doin their thing
And theyll be rockin and rollin until the day is done.
You know I got to make the deadline.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.
If I dont get to the border then Ill write.
The mardi gras will be blowing strong
And the people dancing all across the city.
Im leaving here tonight,
I gotta move down the line.
Im gonna catch a ride on the nine-o-five,
Im gonna ride the rail until we reach the morning,
Maybe three or four hundred miles.
I gotta get that southbound train tonight, ooh.

Mr. Crow And Sir Norman
Ventrilloquist was he, little boy sat on his knee
The people knew that the show was but the best one in the land
Until the night before the act
The dummy's clothes had all been packed away - he'd gone
And he'd left poor mr. crow right in the lurch
You know he's gone far away
I hear his voice go laughing
What of all the years we shared?
Hello mr. crow has your little boy left home - did he run away
Well i hope he'll soon be back to do the show
I'm sorry you must feel quite sad when your dummy runs away without a word
That is all old mr. crow had heard
You know he's gone far away
I hear his voice go laughing
What of all the years we shared?
Now come on mr. crow my dear
We'd better have this gottle o' geer
Then one fateful night into the dressing room so bright
Walked our friend tabledoll
Mr. crow cried tears of joy all in his tea

The Fox
I wait till everyones asleep
Then out into the night I creep
No one can see me now
Or hear me running, soundlessly
The moons the only light I need
To search for food, young ones to feed
But as the dawn is drawing near the earth, my ways not clear
Im trapped on the outside
Moonlight save me, moonlight save me
Moonlight save me, moonlight save me
Unearthly fear, it grips my skin
Unearthly sound, the hunt begins
I hear excited cries
But dare not look from where Im hiding
The multi-coloured humans ride
Soon they will find me where I hide
The brown and white tormentors
Begin to howl and then Im running
Moonlight save me
I cut across the trail I left five miles before

Strange Magic
Youre sailing softly through the sun
In a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, its a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
Youre walking meadows in my mind,
Making waves across my time,
Oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, its a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
Oh, Im never gonna be the same again,
Now Ive seen the way its got to end,
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic,

Ticket To The Moon
Remember the good old 1980s?
When things were so uncomplicated?
I wish I could go back there again
And everything could be the same.
Ive got a ticket to the moon
Ill be leaving here any day soon
Yeah, Ive got a ticket to the moon
But Id rather see the sunrise in your eyes.
Got a ticket to the moon
Ill be rising high above the earth so soon
And the tears I cry might turn into the rain
That gently falls upon your window
Youll never know.
Chorus:
Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon)
Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon)
Ticket to the moon (ticket to the moon).
Fly, fly through a troubled sky
Up to a new world shining bright, oh, oh.
Flying high above

Dont Make My Baby Blue
I know that I cant keep her
Now shes in love with you
But I just wanna say
I wont be far away
So dont make my baby blue
I know your reputation
They say you cant be true
So Ill be standing by
And you just better try
Not to make my baby blue
My little girl, shes always been an angel
And it hurts me so bad to set her free
You better take good care of her
She still means all the world to me
You know she does
Im gonna step aside now
Just like she wants me to
But even though Im gone
Ill still be looking on
You better not make my baby blue

Send It
The sun still shines way up above
But it dont matter now because
The dream is gone
The dream is just a memory (oh, yeah)
If you see my dream, send it back home to me.
The stars still glow up in the night
But somehow, they dont seem so bright
The dream is gone
The dream is just a memory (oh, yeah)
If you see my dream, send it back home to me.
cos Ive been waiting for a long, long time
Thought Id found a way
Now I just wait for someone to call
Im waiting for it every day.
Chorus:
Send it -- on the wires
Send it -- on a plane
Send it -- on an express
But send it back to me again.
The music plays so loud and clear
