Loveless Paul Song Game; Songs without 'love' in them
Topic Started: Aug 25 2008, 09:38 PM (704 Views)

Just post the title and words to any non-instrumental solo-period Paul McCartney-written song that does not have the word 'love' or any form of the word 'love' in it. 'Clove' and 'glove' are acceptable, but 'loved, 'loves', lover', 'lovely', 'loving', 'beloved', etc. are out. You are not allowed to follow your own post or to name more than one song per post and whomever names the most songs when the game ends is the winner! I will guess that the winner will have less than 20 songs.

Here are some songs that are eliminated by virtue of their titles alone.

"The Lovely Linda" - McCartney

"My Love", "Hands of Love" - Red Rose Speedway

"Love in Song" - Venus and Mars

"Beware My Love", "Silly Love Songs" - Wings at the Speed of Sound

"Through Our Love" - Pipes of Peace

"Only Love Remains" - Press To Play

"Don't Be Careless Love", "Motor of Love", "Loveliest Thing" - Flowers in the Dirt

"The Lovers That Never Were" - Off the Ground

"Really Love You" - Flaming Pie

"From a Lover to a Friend", "Your Loving Flame" - Driving Rain

"Comfort of Love", "This Loving Game" - Chaos and Creation in My Backyard

Here is my first song:

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING (McCartney 1970)
By Paul McCartney

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
IT REALLY WOULD BE SOMETHING,
THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
TO MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

OO-HMM-HMM,
OO-HMM-HMM,
OO-HMM-HMM,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
IT REALLY WOULD BE SOMETHING,
MM, THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
TO MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
IT REALLY WOULD BE SOMETHING,
THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING,
TO MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

OH, OH.

MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

OH!
OH!

UH, NOW, MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
I MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.
UH, MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN, MOMMA,
MEET YOU IN THE FALLING RAIN.

Let 'Em In

Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Do me a favor,
Open the door and let 'em in
Sister Suzie, brother John,
Martin Luther, Phil and Don,
Brother Michael, Auntie Gin,
Open the door and let 'em in.

Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell
Someone's knockin' at the door
Somebody's ringin' the bell

Do me a favor,
Open the door and let em in.

Old Siam Sir

(Back to the Egg)


In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who's lost her way.
In an effort to find a man, sir, she found herself in the old UK.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.
In a village in old east end, sir, she mea fellow who made her real.
Took her rushes to show, this man, sir,
He met her dad at the wedding meal.

- guitar solo -

In a letter from Old Siam, sir, came an awful tale of woe.
She decided the only answer was to get off a pile of dough.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.
When a relative told her man, sir, he directed her not to stay.
In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who'se lost her way.

- guitar solo -

In a village in Old Siam, sir, there's a lady who'se lost her way.
In an effort to find a man, sir, she found herself in the old UK.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.
She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough.

+ repeat first two lines of last verse, then repeat until fade:
Walthamstowe . . . Scarborough . . .

Medicine Jar

What's Wrong With You?
I Wish I Knew
You Say Time And Tell
I Hope That's True
There's More To Life Than Blues And Reds
I Say, I Know How You Feel,
Now Your Friends Are Dead.

Dead On Your Feet, You Won't Get Far
If You Keep On Sticking Your Hand
In The Medicine Jar.

Now Don't Give Up
Whatever You Do
You Say Time Will Tell
I Hope That's True
If You Go Down And Lose Your Head
I Say, I Know How You Feel
Now Your Friends Are Dead.

Dead On Your Feet, You Won't Get Far
If You Keep On Sticking Your Hand
In The Medicine Jar.

Dead On Your Feet . . . . .

What Can I Do?
I Can't Let Go
You Say Time Will Heal
But Very Slow
So Don't Forget The Things You Said
I Say I Know How You Feel
Now Your Friends Are Dead.

Dead On Your Feet, You Won't Get Far
If You Keep On Sticking Your Hand
In The Medicine Jar.

You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand

How about this instead.

Band on the Run

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
Mama you, mama you.
If I ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity.
All I need is a pint a day
If I ever get out of here.

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun,
And the first one said to the second one there I hope youre having fun.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam, were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down.
In the town theyre searching for us every where, but we never w ill be found.
Band on the run, band on the run

And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run
You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand

This One



Did I Ever Take You In My Arms,
Look You In The Eye, Tell You That I Do,
Did I Ever Open Up My Heart
And Let You Look Inside.
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This One To Black.
Did I Ever Touch You On The Cheek
Say That You Were Mine, Thank You For The Smile,
Did I Ever Knock Upon Your Door
And Try To Get Inside?
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This Swan To Black.
What Opportunities Did We Allow To Flow By
Feeling Like Like The Timing Wasn't Quite Right?
What Kind Of Magic Might Have Worked If We Had Stayed Calm,
Couldn't I Have Given You A Better Life?
Did You Ever Take Me In Your Arms,
Look Me In The Eye, Tell Me That You Do?
Did I Ever Open Up My Heart,
Let You Look Inside?
If I Never Did It, I Was Only Waiting
For A Better Moment That Didn't Come.
There Never Could Be A Better Moment
Than This One, This One.
The Swan Is Gliding Above The Ocean,
A God Is Riding Upon His Back,
How Calm The Water And Bright The Rainbow
Fade This Swan To Black.

I thought that was the brilliant thing about it. Writing a love song without using the word love.



Juniors Farm


You should have seem me with the poker man
I had a honey and I bet a grand
Just in the nick of time I looked at his hand
I was talking to an Eskimo
Said he was hoping for a fall of snow
When up popped a sea lion ready to go

Chorus
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Down to Junior's Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let's go
Take me down to Junior's Farm

At the Houses of Parliament
Ev'rybody's talking 'bout the President
We all chip in for a bag of cement
Ollie Hardy should have had more sense
He bought a gee-gee and he jumped the fence
All for the sake of a couple of pence

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Down to Junior's Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let's go
Take me down to Junior's Farm
Let's go, let's go
Down to Junior's Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let's go
Take me down to Junior's Farm
Everybody tag along

I took my bag into a grocer's store
The price is higher than the time before
Old man asked me "Why is it more?"
I said "You should have seem me with the poker man
I had a honey and I bet a grand
Just in the nick of time I looked at his hand

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Down to Junior's Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let's go
Take me down to Junior's Farm

Let's go, let's go
Down to Junior's Farm where I wanna lay low
Low life, high life, oh let's go
Take me down to Junior's Farm
Everybody tag along
Take me down to Junior's Farm

Take me back, take me back
I wanna go there...

Dig your bottom dollar
Put it in your hand

Try to hang out
Underneath the stand

Put your hands together
Gonna see a band

Treat me like a good boy
Treat me like a man

Take me hair and curlers
But treat me like a man
You say you want to save humanity but it`s people that you just can`t stand

Temporary Secretary:

Mister Marks, can you find for me
Someone strong and sweet, fitting on my knee?
She can keep her job if she gets it wrong,
Ah, but Mister Marks, I won't need her long.

All I need is help for a little while,
We can take dictation and learn to smile.
And a temporary secretary's what I need for to do the job.

I need a
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary,
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary.

'Cause my regular has been getting sick.

I need a

Mister marks, I can pay her well

I will promise now that I'll treat her right,
And will rarely keep her 'til late at night.

She can be a belly dancer, I don't need a need romancer,
She can be a diplomat but I don't need a girl like that,
She can be a neurosurgeon if she's doin' nothing urgent,
What I need's a temporary, temporary secretary.

I need a, I need a
Temporary secretary. Temporary secretary,
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary.

Now, mister marks, when I send her back,
Will you please make sure she stays on the right track?

"Well I know how hard it is for young girls these days
In the face of ev'rything to stay on the right track."

She can be a belly dancer, I don't need a need romancer,
She can be a diplomat but I don't need a girl like that,
She can be a neurosurgeon if she's doin' nothing urgent,
What I need's a temporary, temporary secretary.

Lyrics to Fine Line :
(Paul McCartney)

There is a fine line, between recklessness and courage
It's about time, you understood which road to take
It's a fine line, your decision makes a difference
Get it wrong, you'll be making a big mistake

Come on brother, all is forgiven
We all cried when you were driven away
Come on brother, everything is better
Everything is better when you come home and stay

Whatever's more important to you
You've got to change what you wanna do
Whatever's more important to be
That's the view that you've gotta see

There is a long way, between chaos and creation
If you don't say, which one of these your gonna choose
It's a long way, and in every contradiction
Seems to say it's a game that your bound to loose

Come on brother, all is forgiven
We all cried when you were driven away
Come on brother, everything is better
Everything is better when you come home and stay
Come on back
Come on back
Come on back to me

It's a fine line
It's a fine line

Whatever's more important to you
You've got to choose what you wanna do
Whatever's more important to be
Well that's the view that you've gotta see

It's a fine line
It's a fine line
Whatever's more important to you (It's a fine line)
You got to choose what you want to do
Whatever's more important to be (It's a fine line)
That's the thing that you gotta see

Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
We're so sorry if we caused you any pain
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But there's no one left at home
And I believe I'm gonna rain
We're so sorry but we haven't heard a thing all day
We're so Sorry Uncle Albert
But if anything should happen we'll be sure to give a ring

We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry Uncle Albert
But the kettle's on the boil and we're so easily called away

Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky
Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky
Admiral Halsey notified me
He had to have a berth or he couldn't get to sea
I had another look and I had a cup of tea and butter pie
(the butter wouldn't melt so I put it in the pie)

Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky
Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky

Live a little be a gypsy, get around(get around)
Get your feet up off the ground
Live a little, get around
Live a little be a gypsy, get around(get around)
Get your feet up off the ground
Live a little, get around

Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky
Hands across the water (water)
Heads across the sky

Monkberry Moon Delight

So I sat in the attic,
A piano up my nose,
And the wind played a dreadful cantata (cantata, cantata).
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose,
And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato, tomato).

Ketchup! (ketchup)
Soup and puree (Soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (get left behind)
Ketchup (ketchup)
Soup and puree (Soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind)...

When a rattle of rats had awoken,
The sinews, the nerves, and the veins.
My piano was boldly outspoken, in attempts to repeat its refrain.

So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
And I gazed at that terrible sight
Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,
Sucking monkberry moon delight.

Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight,
Monkberry moon delight.

Well, I know my banana is older than the rest,
And my hair is a tangled beretta.
When I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest,
And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter, your letter...).

Catch up! (catch up),
Cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
Don't get left behind (get left behind)
Catch up! (catch up),
Cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
Don't get left behind (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind)...

Monkberry moon delight...

HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,

WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT WHAT IT'S ABOUT?

DID YOU ALWAYS LOOK LIKE THIS,

DID WE TAKE A LONG TIME THEN?
WILL WE TAKE AS LONG AGAIN?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING (ow!) TO BOTH OF US?
IT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.

HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT (ever find out) WHAT IT'S ABOUT? (what it's about)

DID WE MEET SOMEWHERE BEFORE
FAR BEHIND THAT HALF CLOSED DOOR?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
IT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.

OOH, OOH.

HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT (ever find out) WHAT IT'S ABOUT? (what it's about)

DID YOU ALWAYS LOOK LIKE THIS,
AT THE UNSPECTED KISS?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.

UH, UH, UH, UH.

Tomorrow

Oh, baby, don't you let me down tomorrow,
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow,
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.
Hey, baby's got a lazy day on sunday,
Here's a pound, we hang around 'til monday,
Oh, baby don't you let me down on sunday.

Bring a bag of bread and cheese and find a shady spot beneath the trees.
Catch abreath of country air and run your pretty fingers thro' my hair.

Tomorrow, when we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, don't you let me down tomorrow,
Thro' the week we beg and steal and borrow.
Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.

Honey, pray for sunny skies so I can speak to rainbows in your eyes.
Let's just hope the weather man is feeling fine and doesn't spoil our plan.

Tomorrow, when we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, don't you let me down tomorrow,
Holding hands we both abandon sorrow.
Oh, baby, don't let me down tomorrow.

Oh, for a chance to get away tomorrow.
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow,
baby, don't let me down tomorrow.

Oh, don't let me down,
Baby, don't let me down tomorrow.

Wild Life

The word "wild" applies to the words "you" and "me".
While taking a walk thru an African park one day,
I saw a sign say, "The animals have the right of way".

Wild life, whatever happened to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

We're breeding a lot,
a lot of political nonsense in the air.

You're making it hard for the people who live in there.
You're moving so fast, but, baby, you know not where.
Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?

You'd better stop, there's animals ev'rywhere,
And man is the top, an animal too,
And, man, you just got to care.

Wild life, what's gonna happen to,
Wild life, the animals in the zoo?

You're breathing a lot of polical nonsense in the air.

Wild life, (wild life), what's gonna happen to
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, (wild life), the animals in the zoo?
(what's gonna happen to) (what's gonna happen to)
Wild life, what ever happened to?

Must do something about it

I've just seen another sunset on my own.
All day long I've been alone,
and I must do something about it,
yes I must do something about it.
Played another losing cardgame with myself.
Lonely joker on ashalf,
and I must do something about it,
yes I must do something about it.

No one on the party line,
No one seems to need a dime,
No one even knows that I'm feeling this way.

I've just seen another sunset on my own.
All day long I've been alone,
and I must do something about it,
yes I must do something about it.

No one seems to need my vote,
No one has to change a note,
No one here to hold my coat,
Oh, what a day.

I've just watched another movie on T.V.
No one's in the house but me,
and I must do something about it,
yes I must do something about it.

Oh, oh, something about it.

I've just dialed another number on my phone.
All day long I've been alone,

One More Kiss

Only One More Kiss / I Didn't Mean To Hurt You Little Girl
Let's Make It One To Remember / Only One More Kiss
I Said A Foolish Thing Last Night
I Didn't Think You'd Take It Bad
But Now I'm On My Way Again And Just Before I Go

Only One More Kiss / I Never Mean To Hurt You Little Girl
Let's Make It One To Remember / Only One More Kiss

Solo

The Mess

You Sailed Away One Night In June
I Heard You Say You Would Be Back Soon
But Since That Day It's Been On Long Loon

Oh - Sweet Darling The Mess I'm In

I Spoke To Jimmy With The Big Tattoo
Said Had He Seen Any Sign Of You
He Looked At Me And Then Laughed At You
See Just Wait A Minute, Oh Darling What A Mess I'm In

When I Want Ya Do I Get Ya
All I Needed Your Number,
Will You Give Me Your Number

Oh Sweet Darling
Oh Sweet Darling
Oh - Sweet Darling What A Mess I'm In
What A Mess I'm In, Since You Left Me
What A Mess I'm In, Oh Yeah
Oh Oh - Oh Oh Wo - Wo
Oh Oh - Oh Wo,Wo Wo

When You're Near Me
Can You Hear Me
I Can't See Ya
I Can Feel Ya
When You're Near Me
Can Ya Hear Me

Little Lamb Dragonfly

I Have No Answer For You Little Lamb
I Can Help You Out / But I Cannot Help You In
Sometimes You Think That Life Is Hard
And This Is Only One Of Them
My Heart Is Breaking For You Little Lamb
I Can Help You Out / But We May Never Meet Again
La La La La La La La La ... Etc.

Dragonfly Fly By My Window
You And I Still Have A Way To Go
Don't Know Why You Hang Around My Door
I Don't Live Here Any More
Since You've Gone I Never Know
I Go On, But I Miss You So

Dragonfly Don't Keep Me Waiting
I'm Waiting Can't You See Me I'm Waiting
When We Try We'll Have A Way To Go
Dragonfly You've Been Away Too Long
How Did Two Rights Make A Wrong
Since You've Gone I Never Know I Go On
But I Miss You So In My Heart
I Feel The Pain
Keeps Coming Back Again

Dragonfly Fly By My Window
I'm Flying Can't You See Me I'm Flying
You And I Can Find A Way To See
Dragonfly The Years Ahead Will Show
How Little We Really Know
Since You've Gone Its Never Right They Go On
The Lonely Nights, Come On Home
And Make It Right

My Heart Is Aching For You Little Lamb
I Can Help You Out / But I Cannot Help You In

Lonely road

I tried to get over you
I tried to find something new
But all I could ever do
Was fill my time
With thoughts of you

I tried to go somewhere old
To search for my pot of gold
But all I could ever hold
Inside my mind
Were thoughts of you

I hear your music
And it's driving me wild
Familiar rhythms
In a different style
I hear your music
And it's driving me wild again

Don't want to let you take me down
Don't want to get hurt second time around
Don't want to walk that lonely road again

Do You Need A Pal For A Minute Or Two

I'm A Lot Like You
Me Too, Me Too, Me Too
I'm A Lot Like You

Me Too, Me Too, Me Too
I'm A Lot Like You

Country Dreamer

I'd like to walk in a field with you,
take my hat and my boots off too.
I'd like to lie in a field with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
Would you like to do it too?
I'd like to stand in a stream with you,
roll my trousers up and not feel blue.
I'd like to wash in a stream with you.
Would you like to do it too?

You and I, country dreamer,
when there's nothing else to do;
Me oh my, country dreamer,
make a country dream come true.

I'd like to climb up a hill with you,
stand on top and admire the view.
I'd like to roll down a hill with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
Would you like to do it too?

You and I, country dreamer,
when there's nothing else to do;
Me oh my, country dreamer,
make a country dream come true.

I'd like to climb up a hill with you,
take my hat and my boots off too.
I'd like to lie in a field with you.
Would you like to do it too, may?
