'Another Mojito' Song lyrics.

Havana nights - enter the club with a big cigar
The sounds and the sights - Casa de la Musica
The taps have run dry - jackets off give peace a chance
A hole for the sky - another Mojito and then we dance

'Banging My Head' Song lyrics.
Verse 1
Honey what is wrong with you
Can’t you see my love is oh so true
And I’m trying to make amends
While you’re busy making other plans
And I wonder why I bother at all
Verse 2
I’m feeling like I’m blowing my top
‘Cause I wanna go and they say stop
Leading me by the hand
Down the same old road, back down to nowhere land
Where they really think they’re having a ball, oh yeh, oh yeh
Chorus
Feels like I’m banging my head on the wall, oh yeh
Banging my head on the wall, oh yeh
Banging my head on the wall
And it won’t fall
Guitar Solo
Verse 3
Life’s just a gamblers game
With the ace of spades sweating in my hand
When it comes to laying it down
You come up trumps, while I’m dead on the ground
And I never should have played you call, oh no, oh no
Repeat Chorus
Repeat 1st Verse
Repeat Chorus till fade

'Everybody Needs Someone' Song lyrics.
INTRO
Wooo...oooo...oooo everybody needs somebody.
Wooo...oooo...oooo everybody needs someone - TWICE
VERSE 1
I remember when I was young,
Didn’t think I needed… anyone.
Now I see these things so differently
PRE CHORUS
I know we can’t pretend, that love will never end
If we just let it grow, what we reap is surely what we sow
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE 2
From the start, until the end
What goes round, sure comes, back again
And what I’m finding out, eventually
REPEAT PRE CHORUS - REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Love can make you laugh, make you cry
Sad or glad to be alive
Love can break your heart or mend it too
Love’s so, love’s so, good.... when love is true
S O L O S
REPEAT CHORUS (FIRST 4 BARS ONLY) till Coda

'Carry On' Song lyrics.
Verse 1
When will the world be full of love
When will the people all be free
When will there be an end to war
That is the time I’d like to see
Pre Chorus
And we will have to be strong
And we will have to carry on
Verse 2
I had a dream the other night
That everything would work out fine
It’s up to you, it’s up to me now
‘Cause here’s the place and now’s the time
Repeat Pre Chorus

So open up your hearts and minds
It’s up to you, it’s up to me now
Aquarius is on the rise

Why Did You Die: Song lyrics.
Chorus
Why did you do it
Why did your die young
Why did you do it
Or were you having fun
Verse 1
Traveling around the world in a 1st class aeroplane
Wishing for you baby by your side
Drinking whiskey, wine and bottles of champagne
Didn’t anybody hear you cry
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
Having fun writing number one’s, ain’t quite what it seems
Spending time alone
Life can be so very hard living up to dreams
Such a long way from home
Solo
Repeat chorus x 3
