All I Ask lyrics
I’m just a poor boy There was nothing I could do I never had a chance, unlike you I worked so hard all my days The money I earn't was spent before I got paid
All I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone All I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone
Yeah, I made enemies along the road I’ve seen so many stories still to be told If I’ve done wrong then please forgive We never know how long we get to live
I’ve known love for most of my time Been through dark tunnels along the line Been through times they were good and were bad I’ve been happy and I’ve been sad
But all I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone All I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection Well affection
I tried not to hurt anyone At one time I followed The Sun Never forget we’re made of dust To dust we’ll return when we must
I want to live for as long as I can But the truth is that I’m just a man I’ll accept my fate when the time comes And my soul will fly up towards the sun
All I ask, all I ask All I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection by everyone All I ask when my day is done Is that I’ll be remembered with affection

'Were Those The Days' by 'Les Paul's' (The Paul's) from our album BELIEF at https://www.paullyrics.com/album/belief-2 released 13/11/2020.
Were Those The Days Lyrics
Those were the days of wine, women and song Oh Mary, don’t tell me that I’m wrong Has nostalgia made me blind? Can I be so wrong this time?
Those were the days Were those the days? All lost in a foggy haze Those were the days Were those the days?
Things were better then or so they say More time to breathe, more time to play Maybe my mind is playing tricks Now or then, should I pick?
I was younger then and in my prime Things have changed with the passage of time Things were slow, now they move too fast In this day and age things aren’t built to last
Those were the days Were those the days? All lost in a foggy haze Those were the days Were those the days?
Those were the days of wine, women and song Oh Mary, don’t tell me that I’m wrong Has nostalgia made me blind? Can I be so wrong this time?
Those were the days Were those the days? All lost in a foggy haze Those were the days Were those the days?

'Years of Plenty' is a song that we, ‘Les Paul’s’ (The Paul’s) wrote for Sir Cliff Richard. The song will appear on our album BELIEF at https://www.paullyrics.com/album/belief-2 released 13/11/2020.
Years of Plenty lyrics
Father would tell me With pride in his eyes 'Tomorrow you'll see The Turtle-Dove fly Just wait and see Tomorrow they'll be Years of plenty Ooh ooh ooh ooh Years of plenty For you and for me'
Although we were poor And it was hard to cope Life was like a war 'Never give up hope' Is what he'd say to me 'Your spirit will fly free In years of plenty Ooh ooh ooh ooh Years of plenty For you and for me'
'To enjoy good times You've had to suffer pain To reach the sunshine You've had to walk in the rain' 'To enjoy good times You've had to suffer pain To reach the sunshine You've had to walk in the rain'
'The tunnel's so long The end's within view For we must be strong To make it on through Then when that time comes Our hearts will sing We'll dance in the sun We'll dive in the spring Ooh ooh ooh ooh Years of plenty For you and for me'
I'm staring at the door Waiting for that knock Since Father's been gone I've felt I've been lost But I remember that What he'd say to me As I sat on his knee Is 'always believe Ooh ooh ooh ooh In years of plenty For you and for me'
Years of plenty Years of plenty Years of plenty Years of plenty

We Were The Young Ones is a song originally written by us, Manuel Stübinger and Paul Robert Thomas for Sir Cliff Richard and released on the album BELIEF at https://www.paullyrics.com/album/belief-2 on 13/11/2020. * We Were The Young Ones Lyrics We Were The Young Ones
We were the young ones Or so they all said We were the young ones I was well schooled and well read
We were the young ones My back aches my feet are like lead (Alternative - We’d go out and paint the town red) We were the young ones All these memories ringing in my head
I woke up this morning With the sun in my eyes Alone in my bed And the room full of flies
I switched on the TV With the remote control There was a plastic woman Saying ‘she’s the new living doll’
We were the young ones Like a shiny new car We were the young ones Now covered in marks and scars
We were the young ones All fresh and unwed We were the young ones Well these tyres have worn treads
Refrain: Oh we were the young ones We were the young ones We were the young ones
I’ve been rocking and rolling For most of my days Been through the rain And the purple haze
Never ever thought As I went round the world (Alternative - As I went place to place) That girls could be boys (Alternative - I’d find all this love) And that boys could be girls (Alternative - Shining so bright in my face)
We were the young ones Or so they all said We were the young ones We’ve all been so mislead
We were the young ones In those times well past We were the young ones I wish those times could last
Oh we were the young ones We were the young ones We were the young ones
People just don’t talk anymore It’s all done by text (Alternative - It’s all done by signs) Feelings are cheap (Alternative - In these new times) Like throwaway sex (Alternative - Nothing seems to rhyme) I was always taught to show respect I’m told I’m like an old shipwreck
We were the young ones My back aches my feet are like lead (Alternative - We’d go out and paint the town red) We were the young ones All these memories ringing in my head
We were the young ones In those times well past We were the young ones I wish those times could last
We were the young ones In those times well past We were the young ones I wish those times could last
We were the young ones Or so they all said We were the young ones We’ve all been so mislead
Oh we were the young ones We were the young ones We were the young ones
Oh we were the young ones We were the young ones We were the young ones

I Met Andy Warhol lyrics
‘You Won’t believe who I bumped into the day before yesterday down by the Roundhouse! Well, who mate? I bumped into this geezer called ‘Andy Warhol!’
See David in tattered blue jeans Listening to Hawkwind’s ‘Silver Machine’ Selling hot dogs by The Round House In North London, thereabouts
David in tattered blue jeans Looking like a skinny bean David in tattered blue jeans As unstable as gasoline
One night Andy came to town He was the brightest star around They were opening up his show Would he come to the show no one could know?
I spoke to Andy that time He looked so dandy and so fine On the street in seventy two On the arm of his boy with his eyes of blue
From near Andy didn’t look big Grandma shouting ‘Pig, Pig, Pig’! Protesting with her Welsh talk Andy answered ‘No, you’ll find it’s called ‘Pork’! ‘No, you’ll find it’s called ‘Pork’!
He gave me a look and a smile He sure did have class, he had style I’ll never forget his warm eyes When I later heard he’d gone, I cried I cried, yeah I cried, I cried
Andy could have painted you On the pouch of a Kangaroo Or on the side of a bus Or on a plate of frozen moon dust Or on a plate of frozen moon dust
David in tattered blue jeans Meeting stars of the silver screen David in tattered blue jeans Rubbing shoulders with kings and queens
David in tattered blue jeans Looking like a skinny bean David in tattered blue jeans As unstable as gasoline As unstable as gasoline
‘Andy Warhol he’s a legend you know! Paints all kinds of art you know You know like tins of soup ’n stuff like that’! I met Andy Warhol

England, Once My England lyrics
I was born here, but won’t die here That’s for sure I had to leave and get away I couldn’t take no more
Discrimination Runs through the heart of the nation Where class and snobbery rules And the poor are treated like fools
The Police are no where to be seen Sitting in an office watching computer screens Citizens are robbed, raped or killed Chances are slim of getting caught by ‘The Old Bill’
In that green and once pleasant land England, once my England What it’s become is hard to understand So hard to understand
Alcoholism Runs through the nation like sexism ‘Drink to be sociable’ they say But they’re so cold anyway
The rich bankers they rule the land They’ve got the politicians in the palms of their hands They’ll house you in the ghetto's, you’ve got no choice If you ain’t got money, you ain’t got a chance In that green and once pleasant land England, once my England What it’s become is hard to understand So hard to understand
Pedophilia Rampant in towns, country and suburbia Abuse in every walk of life From Lands End to Fife
In corridors of secret handshakes Learnt at Eton and Harrow and such places You’re accepted-in if you’re one of them If not, then to them you’re just phlegm You’re just phlegm
In that green and once pleasant land England, once my England What it’s become is hard to understand So hard to understand
