- Ooh
La La
- (Lane & Wood)
-
- Poor old Granddad
I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
He spoke of women's ways
- They'll trap you, then they
use you
Before you even know
For love is blind and you're far too kind
Don't ever let it show
-
- I wish that I knew what I know
now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.
-
- The Can Can's such a pretty
show
They'll steal your heart away
But backstage, back on earth again
The dressing rooms are grey
- They come on strong and it
ain't too long
Before they make you feel a man
But love is blind and you soon will find
You're just a boy again
-
- When you want her lips, you
get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more and she's fast asleep
Then she's twinkling with the stars.
- Poor young grandson, there's
nothing I can say
You'll have to learn, just like me
And that's the hardest way
Ooh la la
-
- I wish that I knew what I know
now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.
