Dont Stop The Music

(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay/ ronnie scott/ steve wolfe
Recorded in 1978 as a b-side to the single here am i,my personal favourite rca song! - best ad libbing Ive ever heard. also, two recordings of this song exist. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Take me out of the mood Im in
I dont care what you do
Im just glad that the one Im with is you
Ooh, I dont know what I wanna say
Only know how I feel
Tomorrows more than a mile away from here
Oh, dont stop the music
I need it to dance
Dont stop the music, not now
No, no, no, no
Dont stop the music
I need some romance
Dont stop the music, not now
Ad libs...
Oh, I dont know where Im going to
I dont know that I care
Its one of those nights
When the music takes me there
Ooh, take me out of the mood Im in
Dance me out of my mind
Its one of those nights
That I just cant leave behind
Oh, dont stop the music
I need it to dance
Dont stop the music, not now
No, no, no, no
Dont stop the music
I need some romance
Dont stop the music, not now
Ad libs...
Dont stop the music
I need it to dance
Dont stop the music, not now
Dont stop the music
I need it to dance
Dont stop, not now
Dont stop, dont stop
I need it to dance
Dont stop, dont stop, not now
Dont stop the music

Bonnie Cat

Bonnie cat o!
Bonnie cat... don't go away
Bonnie cat look! you make funny bunny crying,
Bonnie cat see it is cold and will not you
come and have me sleep in your warmth
Bonnie cat will not we play the strings of a piano together
one which made the days of summer like a swallow bird
humming into the chilly wintry nights in the command of a nightingale
Bonnie cat o!

Bonnie cat o!
Bonnie cat look i have carrot soup for you
Shall not we chase and try to fly like those duffy ducks
they now bully me bonnie cat
Bunny is so scored without you
Shall not we play in the sunshine meadows
and steal milk from the chocolate hut
Shall not you tell me again to run and get you the rainbow past you
Shall not we see the fountains emerge again and quench our thirst
Bonnie cat o!

Bonnie cat o!
Bonnie cat see our life lacks subtlety
without our sinewy power of bonding
Bonnie cat o bonnie cat!
Don't leave me for a panjandrum center
in your heart...cavort back dear!
See the bunny too have fish and chips for you
Flesh for your heart and not syringes made of bones
And heart for your flesh never ever in the mesh of bandages
Bonnie cat will not you come as Latin song
in satin clothes for my prayer's christmas gift
Bonnie cat o!

Bonnie cat o!
Bonnie cat look you made funny bunny no more irascible
In your zany droplets of fear which in i grew up
Bonnie cat without you i am lost in the turbine
where noxious gases take my breath away
It now stings like an urchin and groans like a swine
Is not it you testing my patience bonnie cat
Tell me bonnie cat don't walk away
Word does make an image of fascination
but pain does not when i convey am really in
Bonnie cat...
my sweet bonnie cat
Bonnie cat o!

Absalom and Achitophel

In pious times, e'er Priest-craft did begin,
Before Polygamy was made a sin;
When man, on many, multiply'd his kind,
E'r one to one was, cursedly, confind:
When Nature prompted, and no law deny'd
Promiscuous use of Concubine and Bride;
Then, Israel's monarch, after Heaven's own heart,
His vigorous warmth did, variously, impart
To Wives and Slaves; And, wide as his Command,
Scatter'd his Maker's Image through the Land.
Michal, of Royal blood, the Crown did wear,
A Soyl ungratefull to the Tiller's care;
Not so the rest; for several Mothers bore
To Godlike David, several Sons before.
But since like slaves his bed they did ascend,
No True Succession could their seed attend.
Of all this Numerous Progeny was none
So Beautifull, so brave as Absalon:
Whether, inspir'd by some diviner Lust,
His father got him with a greater Gust;
Or that his Conscious destiny made way
By manly beauty to Imperiall sway.
Early in Foreign fields he won Renown,
With Kings and States ally'd to Israel's Crown
In Peace the thoughts of War he could remove,
And seem'd as he were only born for love.
What e'er he did was done with so much ease,
In him alone, 'twas Natural to please.
His motions all accompanied with grace;
And Paradise was open'd in his face.
With secret Joy, indulgent David view'd
His Youthfull Image in his Son renew'd:
To all his wishes Nothing he deny'd,
And made the Charming Annabel his Bride.
What faults he had (for who from faults is free?)
His Father could not, or he would not see.
Some warm excesses, which the Law forbore,
Were constru'd Youth that purg'd by boyling o'r:
And Amnon's Murther, by a specious Name,
Was call'd a Just Revenge for injur'd Fame.
Thus Prais'd, and Lov'd, the Noble Youth remain'd,
While David, undisturb'd, in Sion raign'd.
But Life can never be sincerely blest:
Heaven punishes the bad, and proves the best.
The Jews, a Headstrong, Moody, Murmuring race,
As ever try'd th' extent and stretch of grace;
God's pamper'd people whom, debauch'd with ease,
No King could govern, nor no God could please;
(Gods they had tri'd of every shape and size
That Gods-smiths could produce, or Priests devise.)

The Braes of Yarrow

‘BUSK ye, busk ye, my bonnie, bonnie bride!
Busk ye, busk ye, my winsome marrow!
Busk ye, busk ye, my bonnie, bonnie bride!
And think nae mair on the braes of Yarrow!’

‘Where got ye that bonnie, bonnie bride?
Where got ye that winsome marrow?’
‘I got her where I durst not well be seen—
Pu’ing the birks on the braes of Yarrow.’

‘Weep not, weep not, my bonnie, bonnie bride!
Weep not, weep not, my winsome marrow!
Nor let thy heart lament to leave
Pu’ing the birks on the braes of Yarrow.’

‘Why does she weep, thy bonnie, bonnie bride?
Why does she weep, thy winsome marrow?
And why dare ye nae mair weel be seen
Pu’ing the birks on the braes of Yarrow?’

‘Lang maun she weep, lang maun she, maun she weep,
Lang maun she weep with dule and sorrow;
And lang maun I nae weel be seen
Pu’ing the birks on the braes of Yarrow.

‘For she has tint her lover, lover dear—
Her lover dear, the cause of sorrow;
And I have slain the comeliest swain
That ever pu’ed birks on the braes of Yarrow.

‘Why runs thy stream O Yarrow, Yarrow, reid?
Why on thy braes is heard the voice of sorrow?
And why yon melancholious weeds
Hung on the bonnie birks of Yarrow.

‘What’s yonder floats on the rueful, rueful flood?
What’s yonder floats? O dule and sorrow!
’Tis he, the comely swain I slew
Upon the duleful braes of Yarrow.

‘Wash, O wash his wounds, his wounds in tears,
His wounds in tears of dule and sorrow;
And wrap his limbs in mourning weeds,
And lay him on the braes of Yarrow.

‘Then build, then build, ye sisters, sisters sad,
Ye sisters sad, his tomb with sorrow:
And weep around, in woeful wise,
His hapless fate on the braes of Yarrow.

David

My thought, on views of admiration hung,
Intently ravish'd and depriv'd of tongue,
Now darts a while on earth, a while in air,
Here mov'd with praise and mov'd with glory there;
The joys entrancing and the mute surprize
Half fix the blood, and dim the moist'ning eyes;
Pleasure and praise on one another break,
And Exclamation longs at heart to speak;
When thus my Genius, on the work design'd
Awaiting closely, guides the wand'ring mind.

If while thy thanks wou'd in thy lays be wrought,
A bright astonishment involve the thought,
If yet thy temper wou'd attempt to sing,
Another's quill shall imp thy feebler wing;
Behold the name of royal David near,
Behold his musick and his measures here,
Whose harp Devotion in a rapture strung,
And left no state of pious souls unsung.

Him to the wond'ring world but newly shewn,
Celestial poetry pronounc'd her own;
A thousand hopes, on clouds adorn'd with rays,
Bent down their little beauteous forms to gaze;
Fair-blooming Innocence with tender years,
And native Sweetness for the ravish'd ears,
Prepar'd to smile within his early song,
And brought their rivers, groves, and plains along;
Majestick Honour at the palace bred,
Enrob'd in white, embroider'd o'er with red,
Reach'd forth the scepter of her royal state,
His forehead touch'd, and bid his lays be great;
Undaunted Courage deck'd with manly charms,
With waving-azure plumes, and gilded arms,
Displaid the glories, and the toils of fight,
Demanded fame, and call'd him forth to write.
To perfect these the sacred spirit came,
By mild infusion of celestial flame,
And mov'd with dove-like candour in his breast,
And breath'd his graces over all the rest.
Ah! where the daring flights of men aspire
To match his numbers with an equal fire;
In vain they strive to make proud Babel rise,
And with an earth-born labour touch the skies.
While I the glitt'ring page resolve to view,
That will the subject of my lines renew;
The Laurel wreath, my fames imagin'd shade,
Around my beating temples fears to fade;
My fainting fancy trembles on the brink,
And David's God must help or else I sink.

Its About Time

(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Recorded in 1978 as a b-side to hey love (its a feelin). lyrics taken from careful listening.
Its about time
We stopped foolin around
cause I cant go on loving like this
Its about time
You got closer to me
Its alright for a while
But were more than a mile apart
Are we just playing at lovers
Doing the right thing to do
Im always running for cover
When I ought to be running to you
Sometimes youre more like a stranger
And baby I think Ive lost you
Feels like Im heading for danger
When I ought to be heading for you
Its about time
We stopped foolin around
cause I cant go on loving like this
Are we just playing at lovers
Doing the right thing to do
Im always running for cover
When I ought to be running to you
Sometimes youre more like a stranger
And baby I think Ive lost you
Feels like Im heading for danger
When I ought to be heading for you
Its about time
We stopped foolin around
cause I cant go on loving like this
Its about time
You got closer to me
Its alright for a while
But were more than a mile apart
Stop foolin around
Get closer to me
Im always running for cover
What youre doing to me
Its about time
More than a stranger
Its alright for a while
But were more than a mile apart

The Bonnie Lass o' Dundee

O' a' the toons that I've been in,
I dearly love Dundee,
It's there the bonnie lassie lives,
The lass I love to see. Her face is fair, broon is her hair,
And dark blue is her e'e,
And aboon a' the lasses e'er I saw,
There's nane like her to me
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie o' Bonnie Dundee.

I see her in my night dreams,
Wi' her bonnie blue e'e,
And her face it is the fairest,
That ever I did see;
And aboon a' the lassies e'er I eaw,
There's nane like her to me,
For she makes my heart feel lichtsome,
And I'm aye richt glad to see
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie o' Bonnie Dundee.

Her eyes, they beam with innocence,
Most lovely for to see,
And her heart it is as free from guile,
As a child on its mother's knee;
And aboon a' the lasses e'er I saw,
There's nane like her to me,
For she aye seems so happy, And has a blythe bhnk in her e'e
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie o' Bonnie Dundee.

The lassie is tidy in her claes,
Baith neat and clean to see;
And her body's sma and slender,
And a neat foot has she;
And aboon a' the lassies e'er I saw,
There's nane like her to me
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie o' Bonnie Dundee.

She sings like the nightingale,
Richt merrily, or a wee lintie,
Wi' its heart fou' o' glee,
And she's as frisky as a bee;
And aboon a' the lassies e'er I saw,
There's nane like her to me
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie o' Bonnie Dundee.

The lassie is as handsome
As the lily on the lea,
And her mou' it is as red
As a cherry on the tree;
And she's a' the world to me,
The bonnie broon-hair'd lassie

And the day is just beginning
And the sun is in my eyes
And the overnight sensation of loving you so much
Has brought us to this morning of goodbyes
Heres monday
And the truth is just beginning
To dawn up on my mind
The comfort of your body
The touching of your lips
For ever more are leaving me behind
Goodbye my love
We came this far by being careful lovers
We came this far without once hurting others
Better leave you now before we change our minds
Goodbye my love
We came this far without once hurting others
Better leave you now before we change our minds
Heres monday
And the day is just beginning
And your face is in my eyes
Just an ordinary morning somewhere in this world
A little bit of heaven slowly dies
Goodbye my love
We came this far by being careful lovers
We came this far without once hurting others
Better leave you now before we change our minds
Goodbye my love
We came this far without once hurting others
Better leave you now before we change our minds
Heres monday
And the day is just beginning
And you face is in my eyes
Just an ordinary morning somewhere in this world
A little bit of heaven slowly dies

Get Out Of My Head

(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Recorded in 1980 as a b-side to the single goodbye to the island. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I cant see in the dark, but I see you
Words dont come from your heart, but they get through
Somethings happened to you, somethings happened to me
Someones changing our lives, I know it isnt me
Oh get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
I thought it was love
But theres love and theres love
So get out of my head and get into my heart
Not much more I can do, than what Ive done
You shot me through the heart, without a gun
Somethings happened to you, somethings happened to me
Someones changing our lives, I know it isnt me
Oh get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
I thought it was love
But theres love and theres love
So get out of my head and get into my heart
Somethings happened to you, somethings happened to me
Someones changing our lives, I know it isnt me
Oh get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
I thought it was love
But theres love and theres love
So get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart

If I Sing You A Love Song

(ronnie scott/steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: david mackay, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
If I sing you a love song, will you always remember?
Will you hear it on lonely nights when Im not around?
If I sing you a love song, will you hear it forever?
To remind you how much I care and how I needed you
Love songs last longer than lovers ever do
So baby let me sing a love song for you
Love songs dont leave you but lovers often do
Oh, baby Im afraid it could happen to me and you
If I sing you a love song let it always be with you
When the others have gone away let it still be there
Love songs last longer than lovers ever do
So baby let me sing a love song for you
Love songs dont leave you like lovers often do
Oh, baby Im afraid it could happen to me and you

Baby, I Remember You

(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Recorded in 1976 as a b-side to lost in france. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Sometimes, late in the night
I wonder how it is
Two people so much in love
Should end up like this
May hear you somewhere
So many worlds apart
When you think how close we were
Its enough to break your heart
Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
Baby baby I remember you
Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
cause baby baby, I sure remember you
Sometimes, late in the night
Holding someone new
Sometimes I have closed my eyes
And thought that it was you
Dreams, dreams of what might have been
Is living in the past
Im just glad that I knew you once
Although it couldnt last
Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
cause, baby baby I sure remember you...(x4)

Tamar

I
A night the half-moon was like a dancing-girl,
No, like a drunkard's last half-dollar
Shoved on the polished bar of the eastern hill-range,
Young Cauldwell rode his pony along the sea-cliff;
When she stopped, spurred; when she trembled, drove
The teeth of the little jagged wheels so deep
They tasted blood; the mare with four slim hooves
On a foot of ground pivoted like a top,
Jumped from the crumble of sod, went down, caught, slipped;
Then, the quick frenzy finished, stiffening herself
Slid with her drunken rider down the ledges,
Shot from sheer rock and broke
Her life out on the rounded tidal boulders.

The night you know accepted with no show of emotion the little
accident; grave Orion
Moved northwest from the naked shore, the moon moved to
meridian, the slow pulse of the ocean
Beat, the slow tide came in across the slippery stones; it drowned
the dead mare's muzzle and sluggishly
Felt for the rider; Cauldwell’s sleepy soul came back from the
blind course curious to know
What sea-cold fingers tapped the walls of its deserted ruin.
Pain, pain and faintness, crushing
Weights, and a vain desire to vomit, and soon again
die icy fingers, they had crept over the loose hand and lay in the
hair now. He rolled sidewise
Against mountains of weight and for another half-hour lay still.
With a gush of liquid noises
The wave covered him head and all, his body
Crawled without consciousness and like a creature with no bones,
a seaworm, lifted its face
Above the sea-wrack of a stone; then a white twilight grew about
the moon, and above
The ancient water, the everlasting repetition of the dawn. You
shipwrecked horseman
So many and still so many and now for you the last. But when it
grew daylight
He grew quite conscious; broken ends of bone ground on each
other among the working fibers
While by half-inches he was drawing himself out of the seawrack
up to sandy granite,
Out of the tide's path. Where the thin ledge tailed into flat cliff
he fell asleep. . . .
Far seaward
The daylight moon hung like a slip of cloud against the horizon.
The tide was ebbing
From the dead horse and the black belt of sea-growth. Cauldwell
seemed to have felt her crying beside him,
