OH, OH.
IF YOU LITTLE BOGEYS WANT TO SING ALONG,
YOU'VE GOT TO CLEAN YOUR BOGEY ACT UP
AND LEARN THE BOGEY SONG.
WITHOUT BOGEY MUSIC MY LIFE IS INCOMPLETE,
WITHOUT BOGEY MUSIC LIFE IS INCOMPLETE,
WITHOUT BOGEY MUSIC LIFE IS INCOMPLETE.
BOGEY MUSIC, BOGEY MUSIC,
BOGEY MUSIC, BOGEY MUSIC.
ALRIGHT, HERE WE ARE NOW TONIGHT IN BOGEY LAND.

YOU KNOW, IT...SUCKERS.
OOOH, BOGEY MUSIC,

BOGEY MUSIC.
Note:
Bogey Music was inspired by Raymond Briggs' book "Fungus the Bogeyman" published by Hamish Hamilton, London in 1977. Bogey men live deep beneath the earth. Their lifestyle is almost opposite to that of the people on the surface, who they call "dry cleaners". Bogey men hate music and prefer wet, slimy clothes to warm and clean ones. But the younger generation rebel and develop a taste for rock and roll and cleanliness.
Bogey Music is the first record made by "dry cleaners" for the expanding Bogey market.

I WOULD ONLY SMILE
By Denny Laine
As recorded by Wings, released by Denny Laine
I BEGIN MY STORY NOW
THAT YOU HAVE SET ME FREE.
GIRL, WE'VE SEEN OUR UPS AND DOWNS
AND ALWAYS IT WILL BE.
IN MY HEART YOU ARE, (uh -)
NEVER VERY FAR. (uh -)
AND IF I'M AT ANY TIME ASKED IF I'VE KNOWN LOVE,
I WOULD ONLY SMILE.
SMILE AND THINK OF WHAT WE'VE HAD,
A VERY SPECIAL THING.
AND WHEN SOMETIMES I'M FEELING BAD,
I'LL TRY REMEMBERING.
ALL THOSE HAPPY DAYS, (uh -)
MY SWEET MEMORY. (uh -)
AND IF I'M AT ANY TIME ASKED IF I'VE KNOWN LOVE,
I WOULD ONLY SMILE.
AND IF YOUR HAND IS REACHING OUT,
I WON'T BE FAR AWAY.
WE'LL TAKE OUR TIME AND WORK IT OUT,
AND I WOULD ONLY SMILE, WHAT COULD I SAY?
IN MY HEART YOU ARE, (uh -)
NEVER VERY FAR. (uh -)
AND IF I'M AT ANY TIME ASKED IF I'VE KNOWN LOVE,
I WOULD ONLY SMILE.
AND IF YOUR HAND IS REACHING OUT,
I WON'T BE FAR AWAY.
WE'LL MAYBE BE NOT WORKIN' OUT,
BUT I WOULD ONLY SMILE, WHAT COULD I SAY?
(AH!)
I BEGIN MY STORY NOW
THAT YOU HAVE SET ME FREE.
GIRL, WE'VE SEEN OUR UPS AND DOWNS
AND ALWAYS IT WILL BE.
IN MY HEART YOU ARE, (uh -)
NEVER VERY FAR. (uh -)

SEND ME THE HEART
By Paul McCartney and Denny Laine
Recorded by Wings, released by Denny Laine
YOU TOOK THE TRAIN TO MEMPHIS,
TO THE ONE YOU LOVED SO LONG,
NOT KNOWING THAT YOU LEFT ME HERE TO CRY.
AND AS I READ YOUR LETTER,
I CAN SEE IT ALL WENT WRONG,
IT'S NOT MY PLACE TO SIT AND WONDER WHY.
NOW YOU THOUGHT THAT HE'D STILL LOVE YOU
AND THAT THINGS WOULD BE THE SAME.
BUT, DARLING, I CAN READ BETWEEN THE LINES.
YOU SEEM TO THINK HE NEEDS YOU
BUT IN FACT IT'S JUST A GAME,
SO I'LL BE HERE TO HELP YOU ANY TIME.
SEND ME THE HEART THAT'S BEEN BROKEN IN TWO,
I'LL MEND IT AND SEND IT BACK TO YOU.
SEND ME THE HEART THAT'S BEEN BROKEN IN TWO,
I'LL MEND IT AND SEND IT BACK TO YOU.
SO IF YOU'RE FEELING LONELY,
WE COULD MAKE ANOTHER START,
BUT SOMEHOW I SUSPECT IT COULDN'T BE, YEH.
MOST LIKELY YOU STAY WITH HIM
EVEN THOUGH HE BREAKS YOUR HEART,
BUT WHEN HE DOES IT, PLEASE, REMEMBER ME.
SEND ME THE HEART THAT'S BEEN BROKEN IN TWO,
I'LL MEND IT AND SEND IT BACK TO YOU.
SEND ME THE HEART THAT'S BEEN BROKEN IN TWO,
I'LL MEND IT AND SEND IT BACK TO YOU.

By Denny Laine
Recorded by Wings, released by Denny Laine
EV'RY MOTHER'S SON KNOWS THE COLOUR OF THE RAINBOW,

SO STAND UP AND BE COUNTED
IF YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT IT IN YOU,
TO CREATE A WAY OF LIVING SO SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED.
TO EASE DOWN ON THE TENSION
WE'VE CREATED THROUGH THE AGES,
THE DESTRUCTION AND THE KILLING
OF THE PLEASURES OF THE MIND.
WEEP FOR LOVE,
SPEAK FOR LOVE ALL THE TIME.
UH, UH, UH, YEAH,

SPEAK FOR LOVE ALL THE TIME.
