Fifty Miles Away
My love, she is patient
She is gentle and kind
She forgives me my trespasses
She is often on my mind.
She is here for the weekend
For the weekend she will stay
But the rest of the time
My love is fifty miles away.
Chorus:
Fifty miles away
Fifty miles away
She is close but yet so far
Fifty miles away.
I don't sing love songs
They sometimes don't sound true
And I am distrustful
Because I don't know what to do.
But my love, she is patient
She gently leads the way.
She is here for the weekend
Then she's fifty miles away.
(chorus)
Not very close, not very far
It’s hard to stay out of your arms
It's not a long distance
But it's still too far away
Know that I'm still with you
Fifty miles away.
Only fifty miles away.

The Albino and The Transvestite
His her name was Gene or Jean
We all knew him her was mean
But untanned Dan was quite a man
And aimed to prove it, too.
Chorus:
It's the albino and the transvestite
Albino vs transvestite
Dan was going to meet at him her's place
But she he said "I don't like your face."
" Let's meet somewhere in the public eye
Where you're not so blinding up against the sky."
(chorus)
Dan took offense, said " Who are you?"
"You poor excuse for a him her hairdo."
Gene told Dan to lay off his Jean
Or else he'd see him get really mean,
(chorus)
Dan said,” We Albinos are a mighty race
And we can put anyone in their place.
Your thoughts are laughable, so are you
You poor excuse for a him her hairdo!”
They met at midnight in Central Park
And they didn't care if it was snowy and dark
They snarled at each other by the light of the moon
Then they went to bed.
(chorus twice to end)

Groucho
No one writes songs about Groucho,
The funniest man there ever was.
No one writes songs about Groucho.
No one writes songs about Groucho.
Is it because he couldn't sing?
Is why a duck too obvious?
Someone should write a song about Groucho.
So I decided it would be me.
A song in tribute or a tribute in song.
To the funniest man there ever was.
Yay, Groucho.
Yay, Groucho
Yay, Groucho..

Tea and Aspirin

Uh oh, I'm sick
Uh oh, I'm sick
Pump me up with tea and aspirin
I gotta get better soon.
Called sick into work
My throat was raging
Knocked myself out with stress
Nothing's changing
If I had a thermometer
I should check my temperature.
(chorus)
Think I need another day
Now if I could only rest
Make this cold go away
Right out of my chest.
If I had a thermometer
I should check my temperature.
(chorus)
Tea and aspirin
Tea and aspirin
Rest, rest, rest.

Gabrielle
Come to the corner
I will hear your problems
I don't have all the answers
But you can talk to me.
It will help us get along
And you may not agree
But you can talk to me.
Oh, Gabrielle
I am coming to get you
I do not know why
They told me hate the government
They told me you're a socialist
I do not know why
But now, you must die.
Now there are riots in Egypt
To oust an arrogant man
He had all the answers
But now he doesn't know why
They are swarming in the streets
Yes, they are swarming in the streets.
Oh, Gabrielle
I am here to greet you
I want to know why
We lose our faith in government
They bark and call us socialists
We may disagree
May not see eye to eye
Yes, we may disagree
But you can talk to me.
Oh,Gabrielle...
