| [FZ] This is a song from our “Freak Out!” album, which has been changed to a waltz for live performance. The name of this song is “You didn’t try to call me”.
|
| After we play through “You didn’t try to call me”, there’ll be a brief pause and I will say: “Let’s roll along, now”, that means nothing to you, followed by the “Bristol stomp”, followed by “Baby love” by the Supremes, followed by our new smash flop single “There’s a big dilemma about my big leg Emma”.

|
| One, two, three
|
| One, two, three
|
|
|
| You didn’t try to call me
|
| Why didn’t you try? I’m so lonely
|
| No matter who I take home, I keep callin’ your name
|
| And you… (I need you so bad) you’re The One, babe
|
|
|
| Tell me, tell me, who’s lovin’ you now
|
| ‘Cause it worries my mind and I can’t sleep at all
|
| I stayed home on Friday just to wait for your call
|
|
|
| You didn’t try, you didn’t try, you didn’t try, you didn’t try to call me
|
| Why didn’t you try? I’m so lonely
|
| No matter who I take home, I keep callin’ your name
|
| And you… (I need you so bad) you’re The One, babe
|
|
|
| Tell me, tell me, who’s lovin’ you now
|
| ‘Cause it worries my mind and I can’t sleep at all
|
| I stayed home on Friday just to wait for your call
|
|
|
| I can’t say what’s right or what’s wrong
|
| But I love you
|
| All you gotta do is call me, babe
|
| I want you
|
|
|
| You make me feel so excited, girl!
|
| I got so hung up on you from the moment that we met
|
| That no matter how I try, I can’t keep the tears
|
| From running down my face, I’m all alone in my place
|
|
|
| Well, let’s roll along now
|
| The kids in Bristol are sharp as a pistol when they do the Bristol stomp
|
| Woah woah
|
| It started in Bristol at the teen-age hop
|
| Oh, they’re sharp as a pistol when they do that bop
|
| Woah woah
|
|
|
| Oh my darling wo-wo
|
| Oh baby wo-wo
|
| You’re walking beneath a wo-wo
|
| With a wo-wo blowing through your wo-wo

| Buying fruit together
|
| Smoking some fruit
|
| Then we’ll save all our stamps
|
| We’ll go down to the redemption center and trade them in
|
| For a throw pillow that says:
|
| “I married Joan
|
| La la la la la
|
| Sister, nice to see you”
|
| And besides darling, what makes it all so important, and what makes it have meaning, my darling, you know as well as I, you’ve got big tits

| [FZ] The name of this song is “King Kong”. It’s the story of a very large gorilla who lived in the jungle. And he was doing OK until some Americans came by and thought that they would take him home with them. They took him to the United States, and they made some money by using the gorilla, then they killed him.
