Billy 02:32
Verse 1 The crazy things does he don’t understand The things he does to prove he’s a man We’ve got a lot of evidence We went and matched a piece of your coat That ripped on that fence Chorus Billy he don’t talk He don’t give an explanation Billy he don’t talk The man don’t make good conversation Verse 2 Billy’s thinkin’ ‘bout his position Legs crossed, hands on face No guiding vision Billy’s not as cool as he seems He smells the smoke Of the burnt not burning The flame is gone Even in his dreams Chorus (2 x) Billy he don’t talk He don’t give an explanation Billy he don’t talk The man don’t make good conversation Outro (2x) Billy knows what to do He don’t know how to do it End (4x) He don’t know how to do it

HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY If I knew what I wanted I would not lurk in the light Of this basement apartment On the dark side of night But I recognize this man From my childhood days Yet I stall before knocking I’d have nothing to say Anyway I, I see him I, I see him But he don’t see me HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY If I knew what I wanted I would not lean on the wall ‘Cause the band cannot hear me Bang the doors of the hall If I knew what I wanted I’d release this guitar Oh, but what if it don’t fall What if I’ve gone too far Oh, no I, I hear them I, I hear them But they don’t hear me HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY

Hey Baby make up your mind I ain’t beggin’ I’m leavin’ this time I’m OK I got Mary waiting in the yard You thought you’d never see my insides out But I knew you heard my insides shout I’m OK I got Mary waiting in the Yard Chorus That stolen car’s going to leap into the night With or without you The brakes don’t work but stereo’s brand new But baby I ain’t gonna use no brakes ‘cause Mary’s got what it takes to spend the night parked in the shadow of her old garage Oh-A, Oh-A, Oh-A Mary’s waiting in the yard (backing vocals “Marys waitin’, Mary’s waitin’, oh-a) Oh-A, Oh-A, Oh-A Mary’s waiting in the yard (backing vocals “Mary’s waitin’, Mary’s waitin’, oh-a) Verse 2 Hey Baby it’s melting fast Your queen like cool and your organized past You didn’t expect Mary to be waiting in the yard You always pump me full of passion Turn your cheek and send me crashin’ I’m OK I got Mary waiting in the yard Chorus That stolen car’s going to leap into the night With or without you The brakes don’t work But the stereo’s brand new And while you talk and talk and talk She is probably unbuttoning her buttons for me End Oh-A, Oh-A, Oh-A Mary’s waiting in the yard (3 x) (backing vocals “Mary’s waitin’, Mary’s waitin’, oh-a) 3x Oh-A, Oh-A, Oh-A Mary’s waiting in the (3 x) Yard
