SIMPLY SHADY
By George Harrison

Somebody brought the juicer,
I thought I'd take a sip.
Came off the rails so crazy,
My senses took a dip.
Before the bottle hit the floor
And I had time to think,
I was blinded by desire,
The elephant turned pink.

And the rest is simply shady,
It's all been done before.
But it doesn't make life easy, that's for sure.
You may think about a lady,
Cause yourself a minor war,
And your life won't be so easy anymore.

No sooner had I sown it,
When I began to reap.
I was torn from shallow water,
Plunged into the deep.
And as I started drowning,
I clung unto a straw,
That somehow kept me floating
While the madness craved for more.

And the rest is simply shady,
It's all been done and more.
But it doesn't make life simple, that's for sure.
You may think about a lady,
Let her in through your front door,
But your life won't be so easy anymore.

A pebble in the ocean
Must cause some kind of stir,
And witnessed by the silence,
Will reach from here to there.
The action that I've started,
Sometime I'll have to face.
My influence in motion,
Rebounding back through space.

And the rest is simply shady,
It's all been done before.
But it doesn't make life easy, that's for sure.
You may think of sexy Sadie,
Let her in through your front door,
But your life won't be so easy anymore.

Cause yourself a minor war,
But your life won't be so easy anymore.
You may think of sexy Sadie,
Let her in through your front door,
But your life won't be so easy anymore.


SO SAD
By George Harrison

Now the winter has come,
Eclipse to the sun
That has lighted my love for some time.

And a cold wind now blows,
Not much tenderness flows
From the heart of someone feeling so tired.

And he feels so alone,
With no love of his own.
So sad,
So bad,
So sad,
So bad.

While his memory raced
With much speed and great haste
Through the problems of being there.

In his heart, at arms length,
Held within its great strength
To ward off such great despair.

But he feels so alone,
With no love of his own.
So sad,
So bad,
So sad,
So bad.

Take the dawn of the day,
And give it away
To someone who can fill the part.

Of the dreams we once held,
Now it's got to be shelved.
It's too late for to make a new start.

Oh, it's so sad,
So bad,
Oh, so sad,
Oh, bad,
So sad,
Oh, bad.


BYE BYE LOVE
By Felix Bryant and Boudaloux Bryant
Parody lyrics added by George Harrison

Bye bye, love,
Bye bye, happiness.
Hello, loneliness,
Think I'm gonna cry.

Bye bye, love,
Bye, bye, sweet caress.
Hello, emptiness,
I know I'm gonna die,
Goodbye, my love, bye bye.

There goes our lady with a "you know who".
I hope she's happy, old "clapper" too.
We had good rhythm (and a little slide)
Then she stepped in,
Did me a favour, I threw them both out.

Mm-mm-mm,
Goodbye, happiness,
Hello, loneliness,
I think I'm gonna cry,
Bye bye, my love, bye bye.

Mm-mm-mm,
Bye bye, love,
Mm-mm-mm-mm,
It's gonna be a raining out doors.
Mm-mm-mm,
Hello, happiness,
Mm-mm-mm,
Goodbye, my love, goodbye.

Now I'm into romance, mm,
I shy away from love.
Got tired of ladies, oo,
That plot and shove me.
And that's the reason,
We all can see so clearly,
They see that our lady is out on a "spree".

Bye bye, love,
Bye bye, happiness.
Hello, loneliness,
Think I'm gonna, think I'm gonna,
Think I'm gonna cry.

Bye bye, love,
Bye bye, happiness.
Hello, emptiness.

I think I'm gonna cry,
Goodbye, my love, goodbye,
Goodbye, my lovers, goodbye.

Goodbye, my love.


MAYA LOVE
By George Harrison

Maya love,
Maya love,
The love is like the sea,
Flowing in and out of me.

Maya love,
Maya love,
The love is like the day,
First it comes, then it rolls away.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Maya love,
Maya love,
The love is like the wind,
Blowing hard on ev'rything.

Maya love,
Maya love,
The love is like the rain,
Beating your window brain.

Maya love,
Oh, maya love,
The love is like the stream,
Flowing in this cosmic dream, oh yeah.

Maya love.


DING DONG, DING DONG
By George Harrison

A one, two...

Ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong, ding dong (go!),
Ding dong, ding dong,
Ding dong, ding dong.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring out the false, ring in the true,
Ring out the old, ring in the new.

Yesterday, today was tomorrow,
And tomorrow, today will be yesterday, oh.

So ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring out the false, ring in the true,
Ring out the old, ring in the new.

Oh, one more!

And again!

(Yeah, yeah)

Off we go, let me hear you out there!

Ding dong, ding dong...


DARK HORSE
By George Harrison

You thought that you knew where I was and when,
Baby, it looks like I've been foolin' you again.
You thought that you had got me all staked out,
Baby, it looks like I've been breaking out.

I'm a dark horse,
Running on a dark race course.
I'm a blue moon,
Since I stepped out of the womb.
I've been a cool jerk,
Just looking for the source.
I'm a dark horse.

You thought that you'd got me in your grip,
Baby, looks like you was not so smart.
And I became to slippery for you,
Let me tell you, that was something new.

I'm a dark horse,
Running on a dark race course.
I'm a blue moon,
Since I picked up my first spoon.
I've been a cool jerk,
Just looking for the source.
I'm a dark horse.

I thought that you knew it all along,
Until you started getting me not right.
Seems as if you heard a little late,
I warned you when we both was at the starting gate.

I'm a dark horse,
Running on a dark race course.
I'm a blue moon,
Since I stepped out of the womb.
I've been a cool jerk,
Just looking for disperse.
I'm a dark horse.

I'm a dark horse,
I'm running on a dark race course.
And I'm a blue moon,
Since I stepped out of the womb.
I've been a cool jerk,
Just cooking out the source.
I'm a dark horse.


FAR EAST MAN
By George Harrison and Ron Wood

While the world wages war,
It gets harder to see
Who you friends really are.
I won't let him down,
Gonna do what I can.
I can't let him drown,
He's a far east man.

All these ups and those downs,
Makes me question what love is.
Is it a lie or worthwhile?
I can't let him down,
Gotta do what I can.
I can't let him drown,
He's a far east man.

Sometime is so short, but it takes so long.
I'm wondering if it is or if I'm wrong.
Even then my heart seems to be the one in charge,
Can only do what it tells me.

We can't let them down,
We've got to do what I can.
We can't let them drown,
He's a far east man.

Looks like right here on earth (ah-ah-ah),
God, it's hellish at times (hellish at times).
I feel that a heaven's in sight.
I can't let him down,
Gotta do what I can.
I can't let him drown,
He's a far east man.

Oh, oh, oh,
I can't let him down,
Gonna do what I can.
I can't let him drown.
He's a far east man.

Gonna do what I can,
I can't let him drown,
He's a far east man.

Oh, oh,
No, I can't let him down,
I gotta do what I can.
And I can't let him drown,
He's a far east man.


IT IS "HE" (JAI SRI KRISHNA)
By George Harrison

Jai Krishna, Jai Krishna, Krishna,
Jai Krishna, Jai Sri Krishna.
Jai Radhe, Jai Radhe, Radhe,
Jai Radhe, Jai Sri Radhe.
Jai Krishna, Jai Krishna, Krishna,
Jai Krishna, Jai Sri Krishna.
Jai Radhe, Jai Radhe, Radhe,
Jai Radhe, Jai Sri Radhe.

He whose eyes have seen what our lives have been
And who we really are,
It is "he", Jai Sri Krishna.

He whose sweetness flows to anyone of those
That cares to look his way,
See his smile, Jai Sri Radhe.

He who is complete, three worlds at his feet.
Cause of ev'ry star,
It is "he", Jai Sri Krishna.
