Those Were the Days

Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
And dreamed of all the great things we would do

Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
We'd smile at one another and we'd say

Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

Just tonight I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me

Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same

Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days

Special song to you my friend :-)

Sorry Guys, heres something a bit more upbeat! I will try and shut up after this.

I used to think maybe you loved me now baby I'm sure

And I just cant wait till the day when you knock on my door

Now everytime I go for the mailbox , gotta hold myself down

Cos I just wait till you write me your coming around

I'm walking on sunshine , wooah

I'm walking on sunshine, woooah

I'm walking on sunshine, woooah

and don't it feel good!!

Hey , alright now

and dont it feel good!!

hey yeh

I used to think maybe you loved me, now I know that its true

and I don't want to spend all my life , just in waiting for you

now I don't want u back for the weekend

not back for a day , no no no

I said baby I just want you back and I want you to stay

woah yeh!

I'm walking on sunshine , wooah

I'm walking on sunshine, woooah

I'm walking on sunshine, woooah

and don't it feel good!!

Hey , alright now

and don't it feel good!!

hey yeh ,oh yeh

and don't it feel good!!

walking on sunshine

walking on sunshine

I feel the love,I feel the love, I feel the love that's really real

I feel the love, I feel the love, I feel the love that's really real

I'm on sunshine baby oh

I'm on sunshine baby oh

I'm walking on sunshine wooah

I'm walking on sunshine wooah

I'm walking on sunshine wooah

and don't it feel good!!

I'll say it again now

Heres another old favourite from 1977. Particulary good if you have a bad boss here in Qatar or at home....

You suck my blood like a leech

You break the law and you preach

Screw my brain till it hurts

You've taken all my money

And you want more

Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules

With your narrow minded cronies

Who are fools of the first division

Death on two legs

You're tearing me apart

Death on two legs

You've never had a heart of your own

Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry

You're just an old barrow boy

Have you found a new toy to replace me?

Can you face me?

But now you can kiss my ass goodbye

Feel good are you satisfied?

Do you feel like suicide?

(I think you should)

Is your conscience all right

Does it plague you at night?

Do you feel good feel good?

You talk like a big business tycoon

You're just a hot air balloon

So no one gives you a damn

You're just an overgrown schoolboy

Let me tan your hide

A dog with disease

You're the king of the sleaze

Put your money where your mouth is

Mister know-all

Was the fin on your back

Part of the deal? (shark)

Death on two legs

You're tearing me apart

Death on two legs

You've never had a heart (you never did) of your own

(right from the start)

Insane you should be put inside

You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride

Should be made unemployed

Then make yourself null and void

Make me feel good I feel good

Such an upbeat and happy song to start the week with!
