A winter's day,

a bitter snowflake on my face, my summer girl

not like before her smile was warm in yesterday.

Other lyrics:
I propose to give the pill
Free of charge to those that feel
That they are not infertible
The kroks of you, the cattle gun
There's only one way to linger on
So who will buy a drink for me, your messiah
We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives
Achtung, achtung, these are your orders
Anyone found guilty of consuming more than their allotted amount of air
Will be slaughtered and cremated
Only one cubic foot of air is allowed ...
I have prepared a document,
Legalising mass abortion
We will turn a blind eye to infanticide
We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives
You don't seem to hear me clear
Do I talk above your sphere?
Let me explain my project, dear
Show you how I'll save the world
Or let it die within the year
Why do you look that way at me, your messiah
We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives
WHEN I LIVE MY DREAM

happy at the sound of your voice.
F Gm7 C Bb
May-be I'll slay a dragon for you,
F Gm7 C Bb
or banish wicked giants from the land,
F Ebadd9 Eb F Bb
but you will find--------- that nothing in my dream can hurt you,
Cm Eb F Bb Fm7 C C7
we will only love each other, as forever when I live my dream.
F etc
When I live my dream, I'll forgive the things you told me,
and the empty man you left behind.
It's a broken heart that dreams, It's a broken heart you left me,
only love can live in my dreams.
Wish- and the thunder clouds will vanish,
wish- and the storm will fade away,
wish again---------and you will stand before me while the sky will
paint an overture and trees will play the rhythm of my dream.
When I live my dream, please be there to meet me,
let me be the one to understand.
When I live my dream, I'll forget the hurt you gave me, then we
can live in our new land.
Till the day my dream cascades around me,
I'm content to let you pass me by, F Bb
till that day-------------------------you'll run to many other men,
Cm Eb Asus4 C
but let them know it's just for now, tell them that I've got a dream
D G
and tell them you're the starring role,
Ab C# Eb Cm Ab Fm
tell them I'm a dreaming kind of guy--------And I'm gonna make my dream-----
C# C Bb F
Tell them I will live my dream-----------
F C Bb F
Tell them they can laugh at me-----------
F C Bb
But don't forget your date with me-----------

THE LAUGHING GNOME
THE LAUGHING GNOME
C Ab C
I was walking- down the high street- when I heard footsteps behind me,
Ab C F C F C
and there was a little old man in scarlet and grey, chuckling away.
Ab C
Well he trotted- back to my house- and he sat beside the telly,
Ab C F C F C
with his tiny hands on his tummy, chuckling away, chugging all day.
[spoken] "I ought to report you to the gnome office." "Gnome office, ha,ha,ha!"
Bb9 F7 Bb9 F7
Ha,ha, ha!- Hee,hee, hee!- I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me.-
Bb9 F7 Bb9 Ab7 F7
Ha,ha, ha!- Hee,hee, hee!- I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me.-
C
Said the laughing gnome.
Ab C
Well I gave him- roasted toad-stools- And a glass of dandelion wine.
Ab C F C F C
Then I put him on a train to Eastbourne and carried his bag and gave him a fag.
C
"Ave you got a light boy?" "'Ere! Where do you come from?"
"Gnome-man's land." "Oh,really."
C Ab C
In the morning- when I woke up- he was sitting on the edge of my bed-
Ab C F C F C
with his brother whose name was Fred. He'd brought him along- to sing me a song.-
C
"Alright let's here it?" "'Ere! what's that clicking sound?"
F
"That's Fred. He's a metrognome." "Own up. I'm a gnome, ain' I?"
C
"Ain't you got a gnome to go to?"
"No! We're gnomads." "Didn't they teach you to get your 'aircut at school? You
look like a rolling gnome."
"Not at the London school of Ecognomics."
C Ab C
Now they staying- up the chimney- and we're living on caviar and honey-
Ab C F C F C
'cause they're earning me lots of money,writing comedy prose for radio shows.
"It's the er- it's the gnome service, of course."
