Love Is In the Very Air

Download Song

I like eyes like yours
Let's get out of here
It's so hot indoors
Let's get out of here
This scene's dead so
Let's get out of here
Got to get out of this dead scene
Oh, you look good, let's go
Let's get out of here, oh

Please welcome the man himself,
The Duke of Smooth
Mr. Roy Sexton


Love's in the air,
The air that's in this room
The room sings of love,
And garlands bloom
Trapped in a fume hood of soupy vapors
And wet as an April moon

Love's in the air,
The very air we breathe
In your blush of youth,
Your joie de vivre
Strike up the band,
Love's a grand miasma
That renders the air unclean

Something's not quite right,
Let's get out of here
It's quiet, too quiet
Let's get out of here
We've been bushwhacked,
Let's get out of here
Got to get out of this bushwhack
This whole compounds gonna blow
Let's get out of here, oh

Love's in the air,
The air that's in this room
The room sings of love,
And garlands bloom
Trapped in a fume hood of soupy vapors
And wet as an April moon

Love's in the air,
The very air we breathe
In your blush of youth,
Your joie de vivre
Strike up the band,
Love's a grand miasma
That renders the air unclean

Love's in the air,
The air that's in this room
The room sings of love,
And garlands bloom
Trapped in a fume hood of soupy vapors
And wet as an April moon

Love's in the air,
The very air we breathe
In your blush of youth,
Your joie de vivre
Strike up the band,
Love's a grand miasma
That renders the air unclean

So are you, stage fright
Dear jet lag, watch your back
Jack of any, Jack of all trades

Lorenzo's Girl

Download Song

From "Steak"

Lorenzo's girl is just so oh, oh, uh oh
I wish that I could tell her so, oh, uh, oh

(Lorenzo's Girl)Lorenzo's girl is so, uh oh oh oh oh
(Lorenzo's Girl)I watch her dance real slow, uh oh, uh oh oh oh oh

Someday I will make her mine
Take her hand and drink her wine
And the San Mateo girls go oh, uh-oh, uh-oh oh oh oh oh
Oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh

Her touch is fire her eyes they glow, oh, uh oh
But in her heart it's ten below oh, uh-oh

(Lorenzo's Girl)She says hello, uh oh oh oh oh
(Lorenzo's Girl)She dances to and fro, uh oh, uh oh oh oh oh

Someday I will make her mine
Shake her hand and take her wine
And the San Mateo girls go oh, uh-oh, uh-oh oh oh oh oh
Oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh

Someday Lo-renzo will
Be gone and I will see him go,
Oh uh oh
And I'll tell her that I need her so,
But she loves him
And they're dancing
To the Monterey-ee radio
Oh uh oh.
If only I could let her know, I'd say...

Someday I will make her mine
Take her frown and make her fine
And the San Mateo girls go oh, uh-oh, uh-oh oh oh oh oh
Yes, just like that, they go
Someday I will make her mine
Take her hand and drink her wine
And the San Mateo girls go oh, uh-oh, uh-oh oh oh oh oh
Oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh

Love Is (All You Need)

Download Now

From"Tender is the Heart"

 

I met an old man
Down by the seashore
I give him penny
And then I ask if he want more
And he say, No no,
No no
And he say,
No no,
Love is all you need
Everybody say
Everybody say no, no
Everybody want a rum-bum-bum
With a rum-a-bum-bum
Yeah, I'd rather have the real thing
Take her in the back now
Put her in the coconut
Take her in the back now
Shake her like a boom boom
Love is all you need
Boycott "Banana King"
Love is all you need
Everybody say!

Darin Zahuranec - trumpet

Little Men

Little men are locked inside my vanity.
They can fly and I don't deny my jealousy.

Little men I'm not inviting you to Halloween.
Little men you tell me secrets I don't want to know.
Toothbrush in the jaw and rotting bodies on the green.
Little men I wish that you would grow.

Buster brother, just another pal of mine.
Acupuncture pin pals in the Calamine.

Little men I'm not inviting you and I'll tell you why.
Little men you tell me secrets I don't want to know.
Don't forget that each of you was once a little guy.
Little men just frigging try to grow.
