ATLANTIS (by DONOVAN)
The continent of Atlantis was an island
which lay before the great flood
in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
So great an area of land, that from her western shores
those beautiful sailors journeyed
to the South and the North Americas with ease,
in their ships with painted sails.To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.
Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.
On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new
Hail Atlantis!
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
My antediluvian baby,
My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl,
Girl, I wanna see you some day.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah
I wanna see you some day, oh
My antediluvian baby
My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you
My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone
I wanna see you some day
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah
Oh glub glub, down down, yeah

WALK ON THE WILD SIDE (by LOU REED)
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitchhiked her way across the USA.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her leg and then he was she – she said:Hey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.Candy came from out on the island,
In the backroom she was everybody’s darling,
But she never lost her head
Even when she was given head – she saidHey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
And the coloured girls go, doo dodooLittle Joe never once gave it away,
Ev’rybody had to pay and pay.
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York city is no place where they said:Hey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.Sugar plum fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo, you should have seen him go go go – they said:Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.Jackie is just speeding away,
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash, Valium would have helped that bash – she said:Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
And the coloured girls go, doo dodo

SEBASTIAN (by STEVE HARLEY & COCKNEY REBEL)
Radiate simply, the candle is burning so low for me
Generate me limply, I can’t seem to place your name, cherie
To rearrange all these thoughts in a moment is suicide
Come to a strange place, we’ll talk over old times we never spiedSomebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Work out a rhyme, toss me the time, lay me, you’re mine
And we all know, oh yeah!Your Persian eye sparkle; your lips, ruby blue never speak a sound
You, oh so gay, with Parisian demands, you can run-around
Your view of society screws up my mind like you’ll never know
Lead me away, come inside, see my mind in kaleidoscopeSomebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Mangle my mind, love me sublime, do it in style,
So we all know, oh yeah!You’re not gonna run, babe, we only just begun, babe, to compromise
Slagged in a Bowery saloon, love’s a story to serialise
Pale angel face; green eye-shadow, the glitter is outasite
No courtesan could begin to decipher your beam of lightSomebody called me Sebastian
Somebody called me Sebastian
Dance on my heart, laugh,
swoop and dart, la-di-di-da
Now we all know, oh yeah!
