It's All About Me
From an en-titled generation, I'll join in any demonstration
To re-move an inflammation, from history
And once I have amended, that from which I have descended
I'll be happy I've pretended, I’m so PC
Your point of view is fine,as long as it's in line
With my friends' and mine, I'm really W O K E
I have pointlessly defended, my right not to be offended
So I hope you've comprehended, It's all about me
It's all about me, It's all about me
Let me tell you baby, It's all about me
I'll get on to social media, and I'll have a good read-iuh?
Then look it up on Wikipedia, to see if I agr-ee
I spend my days comparing, all the perfect times they're sharing
And I think it's having bearing, on my health mentally
I'm an Instagram sensation, I just a-dore the adoration
But my life's an aberration, just like my SE - L - FIE
About climate change I'll have moan, but then I'll go and upgrade my iPhone
So as a hypocrite I think I've shown, it's all about me
It's all about me, It's all about me
Let me tell you baby, It's all about me
It's my choice if I want to live a lie, you wouldn't understand, don't even try
Just look at me identify, as non binar-y
If I listened to the rumours, spread by the gen x and the boomers
Then I'd need some sense of humours, but I haven't got A - N - Y
Don't want to know about the good old days, being better in so many ways
So just listen to me when I says, It's all about me
It's all about me, It's all about me
Let me tell you baby, It's all about me

Destination Vegas
CADILLAC BUILT MY STATION WAGON IN 1974
GIVE IT A COUPLE OF YEARS AND I WON’T NEED IT ANYMORE
I’M GONNA BE DRIVING DOWN THE STRIP IN A BLACK MERCEDES BENZ
WITH MY FAME AND MY FORTUNE – AND 50 MILLION FRIENDS
DESTINATION VEGAS – LOOK OUT VEGAS HERE I COME
DESTINATION VEGAS – WELL, VEGAS WILL BE MINE
SO YOU BETTER LOOK OUT SON WHEN I ARRIVE
$170 A NIGHT AT BOBBY’S BAR AND GRILL
BUYS A LITTLE SHACK - BUT NOT A MANSION ON THE HILL
THERE’S GOTTA BE MORE TO THIS LIFE - THAN SINGING TO SELL SOME BEER
SEE YOU LATER BOBBY – I’M MOVING OUT OF HERE
I GOT NO USE FOR BLUE SUEDE SHOES
I DON’T NEED THEM ANYMORE
I GOT A BRAND NEW JUMP SUIT
PURPLE AVIATORS AND I’M LOOKING LIKE THE KING OF ROCK’N’ROLL
THE ONLY TROUBLE THAT I GOT IS PUTTING ON SOME WEIGHT
ANOTHER 75 POUNDS AND I’LL BE LOOKING GREAT
I GOTTA GET INTO SHAPE MAN – SO I CAN DO MY THING
GIVE ME A DOUBLE BURGER AND MAKE IT FIT FOR A KING

Hey God
HEY GOD – WHOEVER YOU ARE – WHEREVER YOU ARE
I WANT YOU TO KNOW
I LOVE THAT WOMAN – AND I MISS HER SO
HEY GOD – I KNOW YOU CAN FIX IT
SO GET ME A TICKET TO CARRY ME HOME
I LOVE THAT WOMAN – AND I MISS HER SO
I’M SENDING A PRAYER – YOU’RE THE BIG MAN UP THE STAIRS
THAT WHAT I BELIEVE
I’M FALLING APART – I GOT A SICKNESS IN MY HEART
WON’T YOU HELP ME PLEASE
HEY GOD – CAN YOU FEEL MY PAIN?
I’M OUT IN THE RAIN AND I LOST MY COAT
I LOVE THAT WOMAN – AND I MISS HER SO
I’M DOWN ON MY KNEES – ARE YOU LISTENING TO MY PLEAS?
GOD GIVE ME A SIGN
SHE’S MY SALVATION – SHE’S AN ANGEL WITH A BEAUTIFUL DIRTY MIND
HEY GOD – SHE MAKES ME SHINE – SHE’S ONE OF A KIND
SHE SHATTERED THE MOULD
I LOVE THAT WOMAN – AND I MISS HER SO

President Of The Blues
I SAT ON THAT AEROPLANE – SUN ifK INTO MY SEAT
THE HOSTIE WITH THE TROLLEY CAME – SAID “SIR WHAT WILL IT BE?”
I SAID “GIVE ME SOMETHING STRONG TO EASE MY PAIN,
OR GIVE ME LOVE SO I CAN SING AGAIN”
I FOUND MYSELF IN AMSTERDAM – LOOKING FOR SOME CHEER
BUT ALL THEY GOT IN AMSTERDAM – IS GIRLS AND DOPE AND BEER
I KNEW GIRLS AND DOPE AND BEER WOULD EASE MY PAIN
BUT I WANTED LOVE SO I COULD SING AGAIN
WELL EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD KNOWS WHAT IT’S LIKE TO LOSE
BUT I’M THE KING, THE MINISTER, THE PRESIDENT OF THE BLUES
YEAH I’M THE KING, THE MINISTER, THE PRESIDENT OF THE BLUES
I’M THE KING OF A TINY LAND – DRUNK ON EXPENSIVE BOOZE
I’M THE DISGRACED MINISTER WITH NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE
I’M THE 12 BAR PRESIDENT – THE PRESIDENT OF THE BLUES
PLEASE DON’T CALL ME NOAH – I DON’T DO THINGS IN TWOS
IF I SING A LOVE SONG FOR YA – SOUNDS LIKE A BURNING ZOO
WHEN I WRITE AN HONEST LETTER – READS LIKE SCOOBY FRICKIN DOO
YEAH I’M THE KING, MINISTER, PRESIDENT OF THE BLUES
I’M A HAS BEEN DANCER – HOLES IN MY DANCING SHOES
I’M A COKED UP SHERLOCK HOLMES – LOOKING FOR A CLUE
I’M THE FAMILY SCALLYWAG – MAKING UP MY NEWS
I’M THE KING, THE MINISTER, THE PRESIDENT OF THE BLUES
