The Equals - Black Skinned Blue Eyed Boys


People: white is white
What's black ain't clover
Together we'll be
When the war is over.
You see the Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys
They ain't gonna fight no wars
Oh
now.
Cool is school
But the teachers beat yer
When they see
That they can't reach yer.
You see the Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys
They ain't gonna fight no wars
Oh
now.
They ain't got no country
They ain't got no creed
People won't be black or white
The world will be half-breed.
The world will be half-breed.
The world will be half-breed.
You see the Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys
they ain't gonna fight no doggone wars.
They ain't got no country...
It's a brand new day
With brand new people
In one big world
We're just one people.
You see the Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys
They ain't gonna fight no wars. Oh
now.
Baby
you know that we hate fighting.

Nancy Sinatra - Run for your life


Well, Id rather see you dead, little boy
Than to see you with another girl
You better keep your head, little boy
Or you won't last in my world
You better run for your life if you can, little boy
Hide your head in the sand, little boy
Catch you with another girl
Thats the end, little boy
Well, you know that Im a wicked chick
And I was born with a jealous mind
And I cant spend my whole life
Trying just to make you toe that line
So you better run for your life if you can, little boy
Hide your head in the sand, little boy
Catch you with another girl
Thats the end, hmm
Let this be a sermon
I mean everything Ive said
And baby, Im determined
'Cause Id rather see you dead
You better run for your life if you can, little boy
Hide your head in the sand, baby boy
Catch you with another girl
Thats the end
You hear me?
Well, Id rather see you dead, little boy
Than to see you with another girl
You better keep your head, little boy
Or you won't last in my world
You better run for your life if you can, little boy
Hide your head in the sand, little boy
Catch you with another girl
Thats the end, little boy

Mary Smith

Mary Smith earned sixpence a week shooting dried peas at sleeping workers windows.
A Knocker-up (sometimes known as a knocker-upper) was a profession in England and Ireland that started during and lasted well into the Industrial Revolution and at least as late as the 1920s, before alarm clocks were affordable or reliable. A knocker-up’s job was to rouse sleeping people so they could get to work on time.
The knocker-up used a truncheon or short, heavy stick to knock on the clients’ doors or a long and light stick, often made of bamboo, to reach windows on higher floors. Some of them used pea-shooters. In return, the knocker-up would be paid a few pence a week. The knocker-up would not leave a client’s window until sure that the client had been awoken.
There were large numbers of people carrying out the job, especially in larger industrial towns such as Manchester. Generally the job was carried out by elderly men and women but sometimes police constables supplemented their pay by performing the task during early morning patrols.

WhoMadeWho - Inside World


You loved to walk, it’s a matter of fact
I love your feet, that’s the love that I’m at
There’s an explosion of feelings inside,
Don’t know what you're stumbling over tonight
You are a star at the end of the road
Take a break in your morning robe
Take a listen to the sound of your feet
Take a listen to your heart beat!

Tell us now what you gonna do
We are leaving it up to you
It’s not a problem, it’s not a problem, it’s not a problem!

Chorus:
All the movements of an outside world
People moving in an inside world
All the movements of the outside world
Keeps on moving in the inside world
Keep on moving in the inside world

Just close your eyes and you’ll get what you need
No need to fight, no need to compete
Stay in tune, stay in shape, stay in bed
Stay out of trouble like your mama said.

Chorus:
All the movements of an outside world
People moving in an inside world
All the movements of the outside world
Keeps on moving in the inside world
Keep on moving in the inside world

Tell us now what you gonna do,
We are leaving it up to you
It’s not a problem, it’s not a problem
It’s not a problem!

Chorus:
All the movements of an outside world
People moving in an inside world
All the movements of the outside world
Keeps on moving in the inside world
Keep on moving in the inside world
