Ever Present Past
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

I've got too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it isn't too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

I've got too much on my mind
I think of everything to be discovered
I hope there's something to find
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

    The things I think I did 
    I do, I think I did
    The things I think I did 
    When I was a kid

    I couldn't understand a word that they were saying
    But still I hung around and took it all in
    I wouldn't join in with the games that they were playing
    It went by, it went by, in a flash
    It flew by, it flew by, in a flash

(solo)

There's far too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it's never too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

    The things I think I did 
    I do, I think I did
    The things I think I did 
    When I was a kid
	 
    The things I think I did 
    I do, I think I did
    The things I think I did 
    When I was a kid, when I was a kid

Feet in the Clouds
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

Teacher said I had my head in the clouds
They directed, I suspected, disconnected, hat in my way

On the street I had my feet on the ground
Stood corrected, well protected, resurrected, had it my way

I’ve got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground
I know that I’m not a square, as long as their not around
But I find it very very very very very very hard
Yes I find it very very very very very very hard

Love is fab it’s like a stab in the heart
My hidden treasure, made to measure, for my pleasure, I had it my way

I’ve got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground
I know that I’m not a square, as long as their not around
But I find it very very very very very very hard
Oh I find it very very very very very very hard
Yes I find it very very very very very very hard…

I’ve got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground
I know that I’m not a square, as long as their not around
But I find it so hard I find it so hard

House of Wax
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

Lightning hits the house of wax 
Poets spill out on the street 
To set alight the incomplete 
Remainders of the future 

Hidden in the yard
Hidden in the yard 

Thunder drowns the trumpets blast 
Poets scatter through the night 
But they can only dream of flight 
Away from their confusion 

Hidden in the yard
Undeneath the wall 
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all 

Lightning hits the house of wax 
Women scream and run around 
To dance upon the battleground 
Like wild demented horses 

Hidden in the yard
Underneath the wall 
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all 

Hidden in the yard
Underneath the wall 
Buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all

Mr. Bellamy
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

I'm not coming down
No matter what you
I like it up here without you

Go light, Mr. Bellamy
We'll have you down soon

No one to tell me what to do
No one to hold my hand
Bellamy's got a lot to do
And I hope that you'll understand

Nobody here to spoil the view
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand

Steady, Lads
and easy does It
Ooooh, don't frighten him!
Here we go...

I'm not coming down
No matter what you say
I like it up here anyway

Sit tight, Mr. Bellamy
This shouldn't take long

In the delusionary state
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late
In the delusionary state
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late

Nobody here to spoil the view
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand

Steady, lads
and easy does It
Don't frighten him!
Here we go...
Here we go...

I'm not coming down
No matter what you
I like it up here without you

Come down, come down to me

Nod Your Head
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

If you really love me baby
Better then stayin in bed
If you really love me baby, nod your head

If you really love me baby
Til you fall down dead, she said
If you ever wanna make it, nod your head

Nod it up, nod it down
Side to side, round and round

If you ever wanna prove it
Then you hang it on a thread
If you ever wanna shake it, nod your head

If you think the life your leading
Is better then the life you lead
If you like the life your livin’
Well nod your head

Well nod it up, nod it down
Side to side, round and round (round and round)
(round and round)

If you really love me baby
Better then stayin in bed
If you really love me baby, nod your head

Only Mama Knows
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

Well, I was found in the transit lounge
Of a dirty airport town
What was I doing on the road to ruin
Well my mama laid me down
My mama laid me down

Around my hand was a plastic band
With a picture of my face
I was crying, left to die
In this godforsaken place
This godforsaken place

Only Mama knows
what she laid me down
In this godforsaken town
She was running too
What she was running from
I always wondered
I never knew
Only Mama knows
Only Mama knows

I'm passing through
I'm on my way
On the road, no ETA
I'm passing through
No fixed abode
And that is why....
I need to try
To hold on
I've got to hold on

Was it planned as a one night stand
Or did she live in disgrace
Well, I never
Will I ever
See my father's face
See my father's face

Gotta hold on...

See Your Sunshine
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

She makes me feel glad, I want her so bad
My heart is beating madly for her
If you ask me why, I’m not gonna lie
I’ll have to say I adore her

Ooh, look what you do to me baby
You’re making me feel so fine (so fine so fine)
Step out in front of me baby
They want you in the front line (so fine so fine)
They wanna see your sunshine, oh ya ya

She picks up daisys from a field
She loves to weave them in her hair
I know she knows it isn’t real
She still hears music in the air
Its coming from inside her heart
I hope it lasts forver
The sun is shining in the sky
She wants to dance around the world
And though I’d love to be the guy
That gets to walk off with the girl
I’ll go along with all she needs
And it will be my pleasure
 
Ooh, look what you do to me baby
You’re making me feel so fine (so fine so fine)
Step out in front of me baby
They want you in the front line (so fine so fine)
They wanna see your sunshine, oh
 
She makes me feel glad, I want her so bad
My heart is beating madly for her
If you ask me why, I’m not gonna lie
I’ll have to say I adore her

Ooh, look what you do to me baby
You’re making me feel so fine (so fine so fine)
I wanna see your sunshine

That Was Me
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

That was me, in the scout camp, in the school play
Spade and bucket by the sea, that was me

That was me, playing conkers, at the bus stop
On a blanket in the blue bells, that was me

The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that’s pretty hard to take it in, that was me

Well that was me, royal iris, on the river
Mersy beat n’ with the band, that was me

Yeah that was me, sweating cobwebs under contract
In the cellar, on TV, that was me

The same me that stands here now
If fate agreed that all of this
To make a lifetime, who am I to disagree, that was me

That was me, accapella, at the alter
In the middle of the picture, that was me

That was me at the party, sweatin’ cobwebs
In a cellar on TV ya that was me

The same me that stands here now
And when I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that’s pretty hard to take it in, that was me
That was me, ya, that was me!

The End of the End
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

At the end of the end
It’s the start of a journey
To a much better place
And this wasn’t bad
So a much better place
would have to be special
No need to be sad

On the day that I die, I’d like jokes to be told
And stories of old to be rolled out like carpets
That children have played on
And laid on while listening to stories of old

At the end of the end
It’s the start of a journey
To a much better place
And a much better place
Would have to be special
No reason to cry

On the day that I die, I’d like bells to be rung
And songs that were sung, to be hung out like blankets
That lovers have played on
And laid on while listening to songs that were sung

At the end of the end
It’s the start of a journey
To a much better place
And a much better place
Would have to be special
No reason to cry
No need to be sad
At the end of the end

Look at that
Look at her walking
Turning my head
Taking my breath away

Look at her walking
Turning my head

Look at that
Look at her walking
Turning my head
Taking my breath away

Vintage Clothes
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

Don’t live in the past
Don’t hold on to something that’s changing fast
What we are, is what we are and what we wear
Is vintage clothes, vintage clothes... vintage clothes

We jump up for joy
Who cares if we look like a girl or boy
What we are, is what we are and what we wear
Is vintage clothes, vintage clothes…vintage clothes

A little more, a little tall
Check the rack
What went out, is coming back
 
Don’t live in the past
Don’t hold on to something that’s changing fast
What we are, is what we are and what we wear
Is vintage clothes, vintage clothes…
 
A little more, a little tall
Check the rack
What went out, is coming back

Why So Blue
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

Staring from a cardboard castle
Down and out
One of life's young students
Finds out what it's all about
Paper flutters
Angry taxi drivers shout

From the pages of a paper
Candles shine
On a perfect table
Laid for two who love to dine
They suggest a
Highly recommended wine
Once again the same old line

Why so sad
My fine young friend
Why so blue

Weary carriage horses stand
In single file
Someone at a crowded bus stop
Wears a friendly smile
Touching nerves that
No one's heard from in a while
Papers from the same old file

Why so sad
My fine young friend
Why so blue

Sometimes
When eyes meet you know
They have to meet again
Sometimes
Birds of a feather
Got to fly together

From a dingy attic window
Candles shine
On a perfect table
Laid for two who love to dine
Now they drink the
Highly recommended wine
Free at last and feeling fine

I'm so glad
My fine young friend
Glad for you

I'm so glad
My fine young friend
Glad for you

You used to be so blue
You used to be so blue
Why so blue

You Tell Me
© 2007 MPL Communications  (McCartney)

When was that summer when the skies were blue?
The bright red cardinal flew down from his tree
You tell me

When was that summer when it never rained?
The air was buzzin' with the sweet old honeybee
Let's see
You tell me

Were we there?
Was it real?
Is it truly how I feel?
Maybe
You tell me

(solo)

Were we there?
Is it true?
Was I really there with you?
Let's see, hmmm
You tell me

When was that summer of a dozen words?
The butterflies and hummingbirds flew free
Let's see
You tell me

Ah Let's see, oww
You tell me
