Everyone we meet

Hey, hey, we’re The Monkees

Walk out, girl, don’t you walk out
We’ve got things to say
Talk out, let’s have a talk out
And things will be okay

I say girls, I don’t want to fight (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
But I’m a little bit wrong (La la-la, la-la la-la)
You’re a little bit right (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, I say girls, you know that it’s true (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, it’s a little bit me (It’s a little bit me)
And it’s a little bit you, too

Don’t know just what I said wrong
But girls, I apologize
Don’t go, here’s where you belong
Wipe the tears from your eyes

I say girls, I don’t want to fight (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, I’m a little bit wrong (La la-la, la-la la-la)
And you’re a little bit right (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, I say girls, you know that it’s true (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, it’s a little bit me (It’s a little bit me)
And it’s a little bit you, too

[break]
Rrrrr-ha!
[???]
Yiii-ah!

I said girls, I don’t want to fight (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, I’m a little bit wrong (La la-la, la-la la-la)
And you’re a little bit right (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, I say girls, you know that it’s true (La la-la, la-la la-la) (La la-la, la-la la-la)
Well, it’s a little bit me (It’s a little bit me)

Rrrrr-ah! Ah!

A little bit me (Ah, a little bit me)
A little bit you (Ah, a little bit you)
A little bit me (Ah, a little bit me)
A little bit you (Ah, a little bit you)
A little bit me (Ah, a little bit me) (Girl, don’t go, no, no, no, no)
A little bit you (Ah, a little bit you)
A little bit me (Ah, a little bit me) (Girl, don’t go, no, no, no, no)
And a little bit you (Ah, a little bit you) (Tequila)

I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, girl, not me!)
I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, girl!)

You’re tryin’ to make your mark in society
You’re usin’ all the tricks that you used on me
You’re readin’ all them high-fashion magazines
The clothes you’re wearin’, girl, are causin’ public scenes, but ah

I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, not me!)
I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, no!)
Not your steppin’ stone
I’m not your steppin’ stone, no!

I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, not me!)

When I first met you, girl, you didn’t have no shoes
Now you’re walkin’ ’round like you’re front page news
You’ve been awful careful ’bout the friends you choose
But you won’t find my name in your book of Who’s Who

I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, girl, not me!)
I, I, I, I, I’m not your steppin’ stone (No, no, ah!)
Ah, not your steppin’ stone
I’m not your steppin’ stone, no!

Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
I’m not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
No!

Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
Not your steppin’ stone
No!
No!
I’m not your steppin’ stone

La, la-la la, la-la la, la ta da-da da
La, la-la la, la-la la, la ta da-da da

You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy
You’re not the only choo-choo train
That was left out in the rain
The day after Santa came
You’re not the only cherry delight
That was left in the night
And gave up without a fight, no
You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy

You’re not the kind of girl to tell your mothers
The kind of company you keep
I never told you that I’d love no other
You must have dreamed it in your sleep
Stop, stop

You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy
You’re not the only choo-choo train
That was left out in the rain
The day after Santa came
You’re not the only cherry delight
That was left in the night
And gave up without a fight, no
You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy

You’re not the kind of girl to tell your mother
The kind of company you keep
I never told you that I’d love no other
You must have dreamed it in your sleep
Stop, stop

You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy
You’re not the only cuddly toy
That was ever enjoyed by any boy

Davy: How can you do that?
Micky: I don’t know.

La, la-la la, la-la la, la ta da-da da
La, la-la la, (Davy: [whistles] This way. Sorry.) la-la la, la ta da-da da
Davy: Now it’s your turn!
Peter: Clap hands!
Davy: Everybody!
La, la-la la, la-la la, la, ta da-da da
Micky: Hey, that guy’s not singin’ down there!
La, la-la la, la-la la, la, ta da-da da
Peter: Which guy?
Micky: Yeah, look right there, he’s not singin’!
Davy: Well, maybe he doesn’t know the words.
Peter: Well, what are they?
Davy: La, la-la la.
Peter: Oh yeah, yeah—
La, la-la la, la-la la, la, ta da-da da
Peter: —la la la la, get it straight, would ya please?
Micky: Yeah! Ha ha ha.
Davy: Everybody.
La, la-la la, la-la la, la, ta da-da da
La, la-la la, la-la la, la, ta da-da da
La, la-la la, la-la la

Micky: Sock it to me!

Floatin’ down the river
With a saturated liver
And I wish I could forgive her
But I do believe she meant it
When she told me to forget it
And I bet she will regret it
When they find me in the morning
Wet and drowned
And the word gets ’round
Goin’ down
I’m goin’ down

A-comin’ up for air
It’s pretty stuffy under there
I’d like to say I didn’t care
But I forgot to leave a note
And it’s so hard to stay afloat
I’m soakin’ wet without a boat
And I knew I should have taken off my shoes
It’s front page news
Goin’ down
A-goin’ down
Let’s go on down!
Hep hep
Hep, hep
Hep hep
Hep hep, hep hep, hep, hep hep, hep hep
Goin’ down
Goin’ down

I wish I had another drink
It wouldn’t be so hard to sink
I should have taken time to think
Besides I got the picture straight
She must have had another date
I didn’t need this extra weight
I wish that I could see the way to shore
Don’t want no more
Goin’ down
I’m goin’ down

And now I see the life I led
I slept it all away in bed
I should’ve learned to swim instead
And now it’s really got me stumped
I can’t believe a-why I jumped
I’d like to get my tummy pumped
I can’t believe they drink this stuff in town
This dirty brown
Ah, goin’ down
A-goin’ down
Let’s go on down
Hep hep
Oh hey
Back home
Goin’ down
Goin’ down
Back down
Ah

I wish I looked before I leaped
I didn’t know it was so deep
Been down so far I can’t get wet
I haven’t touched the bottom yet
This river scene is a-gettin’ old
Hungry, sleepy, wet, and cold
Told me to forget it nice
Should’ve taken her advice
Only want to go on home
I’d gladly leave that girl at home
What a way to spend the night
If I don’t drown, I’ll die of fright
Pappy taught me how to float
Can’t swim a single note
Threw me in to teach me how
I stayed there floatin’ like a mama cow
Now I’ve floated way downstream
I know this has to be a dream
Find my way to shore
I’d never, never do this any more
Give you three, I been down nine
One more time, goin’ down
Back to my friends
Back to the one
Back to the truth

Now the sky is gettin’ light
Everything will be alright
Think I finally got the knack
Floatin’ and lazy on my back
Never really liked that town
Think I’ll ride the river down
Just movin’ slow and floatin’ free
River swingin’ under me
Wavin’ back to the folks on shore
I should’ve thought of this before
I’m floatin’ on down to New Orleans
Gonna pick up on some swingin’ scenes
Find me a better day
But I’m goin’ down groovin’ all the way
Goin’ down
Down
Down
Down
Back, back, back, back home
Back, back, back, back home
Back, back, back, back home
Back, back, back
Goin’ down

Micky: Ah-woooo!
Peter and Davy: Micky, Micky, Micky, Micky.
Davy: There’s one more.
Peter: Micky, Mick, Mick, Micky, Micky…
Micky: What?
Peter: Micky, we’re not done yet! We forgot the last chord…
Micky: Oh. Ah geez. Wait. Wait a minute, I forgot. Hold it, there’s another chord… Quiet! You wanna hear it or what? Heh heh heh.

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song
They serenade the weekend squire
Who just came out to mow his lawn

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
Charcoal burnin’ everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care

See Mrs. Gray, she’s proud today
Because her roses are in bloom
And Mr. Green, he’s so serene
He’s got a T.V. in every room

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain about how hard life is
And the kids just don’t understand

Creature comfort goals
They only numb my soul
And make it hard for me to see (Ahh)
My thoughts all seem to stray
To places far away
I need a change of scenery

Ba ba-ba bow, ba ba-ba bow
Ba ba-ba bow, ba ba-ba bowww
Ba ba-ba bow, ba ba-ba bow
Ba ba-ba bow, ba ba-ba bowww

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
Charcoal burnin’ everywhere
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land

(Another Pleasant Valley Sunday) Ah, Pleasant Valley Sunday
(Another Pleasant Valley Sunday) Ah, Pleasant Valley Sunday
(Another Pleasant Valley Sunday) Ah, Pleasant Valley Sunday
(Another Pleasant Valley)

Davy: And now… and now, I’d like to take you back to yester-year. Yester-decade, actually. I’d like to take you back to a time when boys liked girls… and girls liked boys. And the only person to swing both ways was Tarzan. Yes. Now… now, I remember those days because I was that boy, and you were that girl.

I wanna be free
Like the bluebirds flying by me
Like the waves out on the blue sea
If your love has to tie me
Don’t try me
Say goodbye

I wanna be free
Don’t say you love me, say you like me
But when I need you beside me
Stay close enough to guide me
Confide in me
Whoa, whoa

I wanna hold your hand
Walk along the sand
Laughing in the sun
Always having fun
Doing all those things
Without any strings
To tie me down

I wanna be free
Like the warm September wind, babe
Say you’ll always be my friend, babe
We can make it to the end, babe
Just once again, babe, I’ve gotta say

I wanna hold your hand
Walk along the sand
Laughing in the sun
Always having fun
Doing all those things
Without any strings
To tie me down

I wanna be free
I wanna be free
I wanna be free
I wanna be free

Peter: Thanks very much. Thank you. Those of you—that’s alright, that’s alright—those of you who have been following closely the history of this group of ours may have reali—Those of you who have been following our history may have noticed that I… well, I did not sing a lot of the songs that we did.
Davy: Aww!
Micky: Oh, poor Peter. Crying all the way to the bank.
Peter: Just a minute!
Micky: Ha ha ha.
Peter: Just a minute! I did not come here to be insulted!
Micky: Where do you usually go?
Peter: …I don’t get it.
Micky: Ha ha. Read my lips. Ha ha. [blows a raspberry] Ha ha. Ha ha ha.
Peter: Now I get it. Anyway, we’re going to do a song I did sing, and when we’re done, you’re going to know why there were so few. And I’ll count it off for you here now, if uh, if these guys are done messing around. One, two, three, four… I love to count. Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!

She knows her mind alright, your Auntie Grizelda
She says she knows my kind, she might may be so
Whoa yeah, she’s raised you right, your Auntie Grizelda
You only know the things she wants you to know

You look just like her you do
I know by lookin’ at you
That you’ve been listening to your Auntie Grizelda

You can’t begrudge her style, your Auntie Grizelda
She couldn’t budge a smile and do it for free
So righteous making fudge, your Auntie Grizelda
So proper judging others over her tea

I know she’s havin’ a fit
She doesn’t like me one little bit
No bird of grace ever lit on Auntie Grizelda

[break, ad lib]
Oh no

Oh no, don’t look at me like Auntie Grizelda
It takes much more to be someone of your own
You’ve got to make it free from Auntie Grizelda
Or just like her, you’ll have to make it alone

I know she’s havin’ a fit
She doesn’t like me at all
No bird of grace ever lit on Auntie Grizelda

Auntie Grizelda, Auntie Grizelda
Auntie Grizelda, Auntie Grizelda
Grizzle da, grizzle da
Grizzle da-da da-da
Grizzle da-da da-da
Da-da da da

(She) She told me that she loved me
And like a fool, I believed her from the start
(She) She said she’d never hurt me
And then she turned around and broke my heart

(Ohh) Why am I standing here
Missing her and wishing she were here?
(Hey!) She only did me wrong now
(Hey!) I’m better off alone

(She) She devoured all my sweet love
Took everything I had, and then she gave me dirt
(She) She laughed when I was cryin’ (Ha ha ha ha ha…)
It was such a joke to see the way it hurt

(Ohh) Why am I standing here
Missing her and wishing she were here?
(Hey!) She only did me wrong now
(Hey!) Ow! — I’m better off alone

And now I know just why she
Keeps me hangin’ ’round — I hit my toe! (Hangin’ ’round)
She needs someone to walk on
So her feet don’t touch the ground (Don’t touch the ground)
But I love her (Love her)
Need her (Need her)
Want her (Want her)
Yeah! (Yeah!)
Yeah! (Yeah!)
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Oh, she

Micky: Ah, I can’t get up. Help me, I can’t get up.
Davy: Now stop messing about and sing the song.
Micky: I wasn’t messing about, I couldn’t get up.
Davy: Well, sing the song!
Micky: No!
Davy: Yes!
Micky: No!
Davy: Yes!
Micky: No!
Davy: Yes!
Micky: No!
Davy: No!
Micky: Yes!
Davy: Alright.
Micky: What?

(Ohh) Why am I standing here
Missing her and wishing she were here?
(Hey!) She only did me wrong now
(Hey!) I’m better off alone

(She) Why am I missing her?
(She) I should be kissing her
(She) Why am I missing her?
(She) I should be kissing her
(She)

Love is understanding
Don’t you know that this is true?

In this generation
We will make the world shine

We were born to love one another
This is something we all need
We were born to love one another
We must be what we’re going to be
And all we have to be is free

Love is understanding
Don’t you know that this is true, yeah?
Love is understanding
It’s in everything we do

You always say you like my style
You say I’m tough and kind of wild
Am I too much for you to take?
I swear this time, it’s not a game

I’ve known a lot of girls
No, this I won’t deny
I’ll give our love, I’ll give it more than a try

That was then, this is now (That was then)
Let me prove my love, girl (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I’ll make you proud
I never made this kind of vow (Never made)
But that was then and this is now (Ooh)

I’ve led a thousand lives, it seems
There’s been a lot of broken dreams
My mind has just swept love aside
You’ve broke me down, put me wise

I doubted all compassion
But you showed me the score
I don’t doubt it, I can’t doubt it no more

That was then, this is now (That was then)
Let me prove my love, girl (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I’ll make you proud
I never made this kind of vow (Never made)
But that was then, this is now

When the world and I were young, just yesterday
Life was such a simple game a child could play

It was easy then to tell right from wrong
Easy then to tell weak from strong
When a man should stand and fight
Or just go along

But today, there is no day or night
Today, there is no dark or light
Today, there is no black or white
Only shades of gray

I remember when the answers seemed so clear
We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear

It was easy then to tell truth from lies
Selling out from compromise
Who to love and who to hate
The foolish from the wise

But today, there is no day or night
Today, there is no dark or light
Today, there is no black or white
Only shades of gray

Peter: What are you doing? Ow!
Davy: What’s that—
Peter: I—
Micky: Just another [???]
Davy?: [???]
Micky?: Here we come, walkin’ down the street, we get the funniest…
?: Ha ha!

[break]

It was easy then to know what was fair
When to keep and when to share
How much to protect your heart
And how much to care

But today, there is no day or night
Today, there is no dark or light
Today, there is no black or white
Only shades of gray
Only shades of gray
Only shades of gray

Look out, here comes tomorrow
That’s when I have to choose
How I wish I could borrow
Someone else’s shoes

Mary, oh, what a sweet girl (Mary, oh)
Lips like strawberry pie (Berry pie)
Sandra, long hair and beat girl (Sandra, ah)
Can’t make up my mind

Well, I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I only loved one
Look out, here comes tomorrow
Oh, how I wish tomorrow could never come

Told them both that I loved them (Told them both)
I said it, and it was true (Yes, I did)
But I can’t have both of them (But I can’t)
What more can I do?

Well, I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I only loved one
Look out, here comes tomorrow
Oh, how I wish tomorrow would never come

Mary, I love you
Sandra, I love you

Well, I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I only loved one
Look out, here comes tomorrow
Oh, how I wish tomorrow would never come

Mary, I love you
Sandra, I love you

Hober seeber sabasoben, hobaseeba snick
Seeber raber hobosoben, what did you expect?

No time (No time, no time at all)
No time (No time, no time at all)
I got no time, baby (Ahh-ahh)
Lots of better things to do (No time, no time at all)

Runnin’ from the risin’ heat to find a place to hide
The grass is always greener growin’ on the other side

No time (No time, no time at all)
Got no time for you (No time, no time at all)
I got no time, baby (Ahh-ahh)
Got lots of better things to do, whoa, yeah (No time, no time at all)

Well, Andy, you’re a dandy, you don’t seem to make no sense
Never mind the furthermore, the plea is self-defence

No time (No time, no time at all)
I got no time for you, babe (No time, no time at all)
I got no time, baby (Ahh-ahh)
Got lots of better things to do, wow! (No time, no time at all)

(No time, no time at all)
(No time, no time at all)
(Ahh-ahh)
(No time)

Wow, I got no time (No time, no time at all)
I got no time, baby (No time, no time at all)
I got no time, no time, no time, no time for you (No time, no time at all) (No time, no time at all)
Ah-you, ah-you, ah-you, I got no time, baby (Ahh-ahh)
Lots of better things to do

Wow! Woooow!

Peter: 7A.
Davy: What number is this?
Micky and Peter: 7A!
Davy: Alright, don’t get excited. I know. It’s because I’m short.

I could hide ’neath the wings
Of the bluebird as it sings
The six o’clock alarm would never ring
But it rings, and I rise
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
Me shaving razor’s cold, ooh, it stings

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

Well, you once thought of me
As a white knight on his steed
Well, now you know how happy I can be
And our good times start and end
Without dollar one to spend
But how much, baby, do we really need?

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

Davy: Hey fellas, come on, you gotta help me get them singin’ here.
Micky: Okay!
Davy: Come on, everybody. We want everyone to sing.

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen?

Davy: Alright.

One, two, listen to the band!

Weren’t they good?
They made me happy
I think I can make it alone

Hey, hey, mercy woman
Plays a song and no one listens
I need help, I’m falling again

Play the drums a little bit louder
Tell me I can live without her
If I only listen to the band
Wow, listen to the band

Weren’t they good?
They made me happy
I think I can make it alone

Hey, hey, mercy woman
Plays a song and no one listens
I need help, I’m falling again

Play the drums a little bit louder
Tell me I can live without her
If I only listen to the band
Wow, listen to the band

Weren’t they good?
They made me happy
I think I can make it alone

Davy: Woo! Woo!

(Micky: Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina.)
(Micky: Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina.)
(Micky: Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina.) (Davy: China Clipper calling Alameda.)
(Micky: Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina.) (Davy: China Clipper calling Alameda.)
(Micky: Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina.) (Davy: China Clipper calling Alameda.) (Peter: It is of my opinion that the people are intending.)

She’s a wonderful lady, and she’s mine, all mine
And there doesn’t seem a way that she won’t come and lose my mind
It’s too easy humming songs to a girl in a yellow dress
Been a long time since the party, and the room is in a mess

The four kings of E.M.I. are sitting stately on the floor
There are birds out on the sidewalk and a valet at the door
He reminds me of a penguin with few and plastered hair
There’s talcum powder on the letter, and the birthday boy is there

Why don’t you cut your hair?
Why don’t you live up there?
Why don’t you do what I do
See what I feel when I care?

Now they’ve darkened all the windows, and the seats are naugahyde
I’ve been waiting for an hour, I can’t find a place to hide
The being known as Wonder Girl is speaking, I believe
It’s not easy tryin’ to tell her that I shortly have to leave

Why don’t you be like me?
Why don’t you stop and see?
Why don’t you hate who I hate
Kill who I kill to be free?

Davy: One time!

[break, ad-lib]

Why don’t you cut your hair?
Why don’t you live up there?
Why don’t you do what I do
See what I feel when I care?

(She’s a wonderful lady) Why don’t you be like me?
(And she’s mine all mine) Why don’t you stop and see?
(And there doesn’t seem a way) Why don’t you hate who I hate
(That she won’t come and lose my mind) Kill who I kill to be free?

(It’s too easy humming songs) Why don’t you cut your hair?
(To a girl in yellow dress) Why don’t you live up there?
(Been a long time since the party) Why don’t you do what I do
(And the room is in a mess) See what I feel when I care?

Why don’t you be like me?
Why don’t you stop and see? (Davy: Micky! Micky!)
Why don’t you hate who I hate (Davy: Micky! MICKY!)
Kill who—

Micky: What are you—stop! What are you doing?
Davy: Micky! The song!
Micky: What?
Davy: It’s over!
Micky: What? It’s over?
Davy: The song is, the song is finished.
Micky: Song go bye-bye?
Davy: Yes!
Peter: And they call me the dummy.
Micky: [sobbing]

I’ll love you this year
I’ll love you next year
And then forever

I’ll always need you
I’ll never leave you
I’ll love you forever

And if you ever change your mind
Think again and give me time
For you’re my first love
You are my last love
You’re my forever

I love this feeling
My heart is beating
A mile a minute

No other woman
Has ever been
So deep inside in it

And when the sun shines on our love
That’s when I thank the Lord above
For you’re my first love
You are my last love
You’re my forever

[break]

And when the sun shines on our love
That’s when I thank the Lord above
For you’re my first love
You are my last love
You are my everlasting love

You are my first love
You are my last love
You’re my forever

Lately, my mind is driftin’ back to former days that used to be
I think about some folks I knew and of my MGB-GT
People, let me tell you that if I had to make a recipe
For fun in driving, I would have to spell it MGB-GT

Cruising, choosing, using
And amusing myself, not a care
Striving, thriving, hot rod driving
Not arriving anywhere

Folks, this little car of mine was like a kitten purring throatily
Sometimes, it even seemed to soar into the heavens, my red MGB-GT

Tooling, fueling my good feeling
Schooling me in ways to go
Soaring, flooring it, adoring it
My little way to go

Folks, this little car of mine was like a kitten purring throatily
Sometimes, it even seemed to soar into the heavens, my red MGB-GT

(But I) I learned you have to lose some things
Before you treasure them, that’s how it goes
(And I) I didn’t give time to my car
And lost my car to time, what did I know?

And so, life carries on, and lots of things are better now for me
And yet, I think back on those golden times when I had my red MGB-GT

(But I)
(And I)

And so, life carries on, and lots of things are better now for me
And yet, I think back on those golden times when I had my red MGB-GT
My B-GT
My little red MG
My MGB-GT, MGB, B-GT

Valleri
I love her
Valleri

Well, there’s a girl I know
She makes me feel so good
And I wouldn’t live without her
Even if I could (Even if I could)

Valleri
I love her
Valleri

Whoa yeah
Come on
Yeah
Wow!

Well, she’s the same little girl who used to
Hang around my door
But she sure looks different than
The way she looked before (The way she did before)

Valleri
I love her
Valleri

[break]

I love her
Valleri
Valleri

Davy: One, two, three.

Valleri
Valleri

Davy: Come on. Alright. Wowwww!

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Ah, love was out to get me (Di di-di, di-di)
That’s the way it seemed (Di di-di, di-di)
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams

Then I saw her face
Now I’m a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I’m in love (Hm, whoa)
I’m a believer
I couldn’t leave her if I tried

Davy: One time!

I thought love was more or less a givin’ thing
Seems the more I gave, the less I got
Ah, what’s the use in tryin’? (Di di-di, di-di)
All you get is pain (Di di-di, di-di)
When I needed sunshine, I got rain

Then I saw her face
Now I’m a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I’m in love (Hm, whoa)
I’m a believer
I couldn’t leave her if I tried

[break]

Oh, love was out to get me (Di di-di, di-di)
That’s the way it seemed (Di di-di, di-di)
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Then I saw her face
Now I’m a believer
Not a trace
Of doubt in my mind
I’m in love (Hm, whoa)
I’m a believer
I couldn’t leave her if I tried
Oh no

Yes, I saw her face (I’m a believer)
Now I’m a believer (I’m a believer)
Not a trace (I’m a believer)
Of doubt in my mind (I’m a believer)
I’m a believer, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m a believer (I’m a believer)
I’m a believer, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m a believer (I’m a believer)
Then I saw her face
I’m a believer
I couldn’t leave her if I tried, tried, tried, tried
Believe!
Believe!
Good night!
Thank you!
