# In his body and his mind

# He's a well-respected man about town... #

I think I'm a well-respected man when I'm singing

but I get up in the morning and I'm probably totally different

to the way you see me now,

when I go in a room by myself, when I write a song.

I don't know I am because I'm just doing it now

but everybody is acting.

# Girl, you really go me going

# You got me so I don't know what I'm doing

CHEERING

-Who in fact discovered you?

-I've been discovered by lots of people.

I'm still being discovered. Lots of people haven't heard of me yet.

I think that I suppose the first agent that we ever had

was Arthur Howells.

He was a big - he still is - a great agent.

I found the Kinks about eight years ago

by accident.

And I was going to a Chinese restaurant,

sitting down to a meal

and I saw all sorts of people coming in,

long-haired boys,

amplifiers moving in and things like this,

which we don't normally see in a restaurant like that.

It was a group known as the Ravens,

a little while later known as the Kinks,

with Ray, Dave, Mick.

And from then on, you know,

I couldn't wait to get my hands on the Kinks.

MUSIC: "Lola"

# I met her in a club down in old Soho

# Where you drink champagne

# And it tastes just like cherry cola

# C-O-L-A cola

# She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

# I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola

# L-O-L-A Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy

# But when she squeezed me tight, she nearly broke my spine

# Oh, my Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand

# Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man

# Oh, my Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Well, we drank champagne and danced all night

# Under electric candlelight

# She picked me up and sat me on her knee

# She said, dear boy, won't you come home with me?

# Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy

# But when I looked in her eyes Well, I almost fell for my Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# I pushed her away I walked to the door

# I fell to the floor

# I got down on my knees

# Then I looked at her and she at me

# And that's the way that I want it to stay

# And I always want it to be that way for my Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Girls will be boys and boys will be girls

# It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world, except for Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Well, I left home just a week before

# And I'd never, ever kissed a woman before

# But Lola smiled and took me by the hand

# And said, little boy, I'm gonna make you a man

# Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man

# But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man

# And so's Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

# Lola. #

I think that we've managed to draw off of so many different influences

and sometimes it's worked and sometimes it hasn't.

But we've tried to express ourselves in a very different way

than anybody else has ever touched on.

I think that's probably why we never really reached the great success

as like the Stones and the Who.

Because I think that a lot of the time,

I don't think record companies knew what to do with the Kinks.

They didn't really...

One song would be really light and folky

and reflective

and another song would be aggressive and angry

and hard-edged and...

And...

But I think that the Kinks are not like anybody else.

# I think I'm sophisticated cos I'm living my life

# Like a good Homo sapien

# But all around me everybody's multiplying

# And they're walking round like flies, man

# So I'm no better than the animals sitting in the cages in the zoo, man

# Cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees

# I am an apeman

# I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized

# Cos I'm a strict vegetarian

# But with the overpopulation and inflation and starvation

# And the crazy politicians

# I don't feel safe in this world no more

# I don't want to die in an opium war

# I wanna sail away to a distant shore

# And make like an apeman

# I'm an apeman, I'm ape-apeman, Oh, I'm an apeman

# I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

# Oh, I'm an apeman

# Cos compared to the sun that sits in the sky

# Compared to the clouds as they roll by

# Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies

# I am an apeman. #

In man's evolution, he's created the city and motor traffic rumble.

But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes

and living in the jungle.

# Cos the only time that I feel at ease

# Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree

# Oh, what a life of luxury

# To be like an apeman

# I'm an apeman, I'm an ape-apeman, Oh, I'm an apeman

# I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

# Oh, I'm an apeman

# I look out the window, well, I can't see the sky

# The air pollution is a-foggin' up my eyes

# I wanna get out of this city alive

# And make like an apeman

# Come on and love me

# Oh, be my apeman girl

# And we'd be so happy

# In my apeman world

# I'm an apeman, I'm ape-apeman Oh, I'm an apeman

# I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

# Oh, I'm an apeman

# I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane

# I'll keep you warm And you'll keep me sane

# We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day

# Just like an apeman

# I'm an apeman, I'm ape-apeman Oh, I'm an apeman

# I'm a King Kong man, I'm a voodoo man

# Oh, I'm an apeman

# I don't feel safe in this world no more

# I don't want to die in a nuclear war

# I wanna sail away to a distant shore

# And make like an apeman. #

-Thank you.

I love it here, really. I come down here at night, usually.

I prowl around here.

It's er...

Actually, I described the river as being like the pulse.

This is really a great place. I mean, a wonderful place to be.

But is, today, a dirty old river

but I imagined it and when I imagine things, I imagine the truth.

It's so much better when it comes from how you imagine it

rather than how you report it.

I think that's what they call poetry.

# Dirty old river

# Must you keep rolling

# Flowing into the night?

# People so busy, make me feel dizzy

# Taxi light shines so bright

# But I don't

# Need no friends

# As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset

# I am in paradise

# Sha-la-la!

# Every day I look at the world from my window

# Sha-la-la!

# But chilly, chilly is evening time

-# Waterloo sunset's fine

-# Waterloo sunset's fine

# Terry meets Julie, Waterloo Station every Friday night

# But I am so lazy, don't want to wander

# I stay at home at night

# But I don't

# Feel afraid

# As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset

# I am in paradise

# Sha-la-la

# Every day I look at the world from my window

# Sha-la-la

# But chilly, chilly is evening time

-# Waterloo sunset's fine

-# Waterloo sunset's fine

# Millions of people swarming like flies

# Round Waterloo underground

# But Terry and Julie cross over the river

# Where they feel safe and sound

# But they don't

# Feel afraid

# As long as they gaze on Waterloo sunset

# They are in paradise

# Waterloo sunset's fine

-# Waterloo sunset's fine

-# Waterloo sunset's fine. #

APPLAUSE

# They put a parking lot On a piece of land

# When the supermarket used to stand

# Before that they put up A bowling alley

# On the site That used to be the local Palais

# That's where the big bands Used to come and play

# My sister went there On a Saturday

# Come dancing

# All her boyfriends Used to come and call

# Why not come dancing? It's only natural

# Another Saturday, another date

# She would be ready But she'd always make him wait

# In the hallway, in anticipation

# He didn't know the night Would end up in frustration

# He'd end up blowing All his wages for the week

# All for a cuddle And a peck on the cheek

# Come dancing

# That's how they did it When I was just a kid

# And when they said come dancing My sister always did

# My sister should have come in at midnight

# And my mum would always sit up and wait

# It always ended up in a big row

# When my sister used to get home late. #

Out of my window, I could see them in the moonlight,

two silhouettes saying goodnight by the garden gate.

# The day they knocked down the Palais

# My sister stood and cried

# The day they knocked down the Palais

# Part of my childhood died, just died

# Now I'm grown up and playing in a band

# And there's a car park where the Palais used to stand

# My sister's married and she lives on an estate

# Her daughters go out, now it's her turn to wait

# She knows they get away with things she never could

# But if I asked her I wonder if she would

# Come dancing

# Come on, sister, have yourself a ball

# Don't be afraid to come dancing

# It's only natural

# Come dancing

# Just like the Palais on a Saturday

# And all her friends will come dancing

# Where the big bands used to play. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# Like a seed that is sown

# All the children are scattered

# By a breeze that is blown

# Now the crops are all scattered

# We are torn We are tattered

# And some of us are barmy and battered

# And the fields where we gathered

# Are overgrown in weeds and in tatters

# Through it all we were scattered

# To the fields we are scattered

# From the day we are born

# To grow wild and sleep rough

# Till from the earth we are torn

# And a soul that is free

# Can live on eternally

# And the spirit can live on

# Though it's scattered in the world beyond

# And I've been out of my mind Ever since she's been gone

# I look around that empty room

# No sight nor sound

# She left so soon

# She's out of view But then I find

# Those scattered clues She left behind

# A photograph with a smiling face

# A cigarette stubbed out in the fireplace

# A coffee cup with her lipstick stains

# I guess I'll never see her again

# Now my life is all scattered

# Ever since she's been gone

# I feel older, I feel fatter

# I feel the blues coming on

# We get bruised We get battered

# But we'll pick up the pieces that scattered

# And with emotional glue We're gonna stick together body and mind

# Ever since she went away I've been alone to contemplate

# Time and space and why worlds move

# While sitting in my solitude

# I've watched the stars and wondered why

# They're scattered up there in the sky

# And is she up there out of view

# On some higher platitude?

# I wish I knew

# Wish I could prove

# The reason why this life on earth

# Is scattered like the universe

# Do-do der-do-do der-do-do Der do-do-do

# Do-do der-do-do der-do-do Der do-do-do

# I'm scattered here and scattered there

# Bits of me scattered everywhere

# To the fields we are scattered

# Then from the dust we are born

# We survive somewhat battered

# To a new life, a new dawn

# In the end what will it matter

# There'll only be my ashes to scatter

# And all the logical answers To a worrying mind

# Will be scattered in time

# Beaten and battered

# To the earth you are scattered

# You're going home so what does it matter?

# To an atomic mind Scattered here while you travel time

# Ah, ooh. #

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# Isn't it strange, meeting you here?

# Two old friends

# Just sitting down quietly drinking a bit

# Knowing your past the way that I do

# After all this time I'm surprised you even come to this rendezvous

# They say you went and moved across the water

# So it's hard to believe

# That you're sitting here with me tonight

# I know you're on the run You shouldn't be here

# But do you feel the fear

# When you meet an old friend and the enemy's near?

# It's strange we always go to church on Sundays

# After getting right out of it on a Saturday night

# And if we stay here too long I know that we'll quarrel

# And end up having a fight

# Just a couple of losers

# Putting the world to right

# Just two people having a beer

# But on either side there is so much anger and so much fear

# Just two people trying to get by

# But we're torn apart

# Because of different pressures from different sides

# I hear you're on the run from law and order

# But you had to show up

# Cos you knew it was a matter of pride

# But beliefs aside, religion apart

# Did you ever think about all the suffering you caused

# And all the broken hearts?

# The word is out that you are the informer

# Who gave me away without so much as a fight

# So be a good friend And let me take you quietly

# Without a fight

# I'll be the one Who's gonna take you home tonight

# I'll be the one Who's gonna take you home tonight. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

One of the big problems that I've had with Ray

is that I've always felt that I've been there as a nurturing element

or a protective element

and I've felt that many times that I've played the older brother

and he's been the irresponsible younger brother.

And I think one of petty grievances, I've always...

It is a petty grievance, really.

It's some kind of fact that I never felt that he's allowed me

the same creative space that I've allowed him.

Whenever that sort of boiled up or brewed up, we've had a problem.

He has his problems with me sometimes

but that's inevitable.

I'm not an easy person to work with.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

CLAPPING

Yeah, come on, let's hear it.

# In the back of a record rack

# There's an old double pack

# Twelve inches and black With an old crumpled cover

# But every track is stacked

# And it takes me back To the one who caused

# This melancholy mood

# And every single groove Cuts me to the bone

# Yeah, she rocks me to the bone

# I took her back to my bachelor flat

# While the stereo played for two

# She unwrapped her gift And played me a riff

# And said, "This old record reminds me of you"

# Then we danced to songs of passion

# And the singer's velvet tones On the gramophone

# While the record played

# She rocks me to the bone

# Yeah, knocks me to the bone

# Those rocking old romantic songs

# Played all summer long

# And she rocks me to the bone

# Knocks me to the bone, yeah

# In dreams she's smiling in slow motion

# Devouring all of my emotions

# Angels singing rock and roll

# While demons take away my soul

# Voices sound, her image fades

# And every time that record plays

# She rocks me to the bone

# Knocks me to the bone

# In my back room there's an old 45 That we played all summer long

# Shaking the beams so loud it covered up the screams

# When lovers' harmony went oh so wrong

# And in every word emotion is torn

# And blood flows down the drain Like she opened up a vein

# And cut me to the bone

# Yeah, she rocks me to the bone

# And now I'm just a prisoner

# In that stereo hi-fi jail

# The needle pierced just like a nail

# As she rocks me to the bone

# Knocks me to the bone

# Hoo-woo-hoo-hoo, yeah. #

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

# And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight

-# He feels a

-# Dedicated follower of fashion. #

You're not tight enough, yet. You need some help.

You people need help, right? That's why we're here, isn't it?

We all need help.

-# Oh, yes, he is

-CHOIR:

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

# He flits from shop to shop Just like a butterfly

# In matters of the cloth He is as fickle as can be

# Cos he's a dedicated follower of fashion

-# They seek him here

-# They seek him there

-# In Regent Street

-# In Regent Street

-# And Leicester Square

# Everywhere the Carnabetian army marches on

# Each one a dedicated follower of fashion. #

-What do you think of it so far?

-CHEERING

Everybody, let's hear it. All together.

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

# There's one thing that he loves and that is flattery

# One week he's in polka dots The next week he's in stripes

# Cos he's a dedicated follower of fashion. #

Everybody, all together. Here we go.

-# Oh, yes, he is

-# Oh, yes, he is

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-Yeah!

# Thank you for the days

# Those endless days Those sacred days you gave me

# I'm thinking of the days

# I won't forget a single day, believe me

# I bless the light

# I bless the light that shines on you, believe me

# And though you're gone

# You're with me every single day Believe me

# Days I remember all my life

# Days when you can't see wrong from right

# You took my life

# But then I knew That very soon you'd leave me

# But it's all right

# Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me

# This time tomorrow

# Where will we be?

# On a spaceship somewhere

# Sailing across an empty sea

# Well, this time tomorrow

# What will we know?

# Will we still be here

# Watching an in-flight movie show?

# I'll leave the sun behind me

# And I'll watch the clouds As they sadly pass me by

# Seven miles below me

# I can see the world And it ain't so big at all

-# These are the days

-# I'll remember all my life

-# Those endless days

-# When you can't see wrong from right

-# Thank you for the days

-# I'll remember all my life

-# Those endless days

-# When you can't see wrong from right

-# Thank you for the days

-# This time tomorrow

-# Those endless days

-# Where will we be?

-# Thank you for the days

-# On a spaceship somewhere

-# Those endless days

-# Sailing across an empty sea

# This time tomorrow

# Where will we be?

# On a spaceship somewhere

# Sailing across an empty sea? #

CHEERING
