MUSIC: "Pictures Of Matchstick Men" by Status Quo

# When I look up to the sky

# I see your eyes a funny kind of yellow

# I rush home to bed, I soak my head

# I see your face underneath my pillow

# I wake next morning Tired, still yawning

# See your face come peeping through my window

# Pictures of matchstick men and you

# Mirages of matchstick men and you

# All I ever see

# Is them and you

# Windows echo your reflection

# When I look in their direction now

# When will this haunting stop?

# Your face, it just

# Won't leave me alone

# Pictures

# Of matchstick men and you

# Mirages of matchstick men and you

# All I ever see is them and you

# You're in the sky and with the sky You make men cry, you lie

# You're in the sky and with the sky You make men cry, you lie

# Pictures of matchstick men and pictures of matchstick men... #

APPLAUSE

Eee.

You can tell I work for the BBC, I can't have my bridge work done.

Tony Blackburn gets fresh sets of teeth everyday, but me...

Anyway, it's pin back your lugholes time, for Status Quo.

# Together we can rock 'n' roll

# When I'm thinking of you sleeping

# I'm at home alone and weeping

# Are you keeping your love

# Sweet love?

# Do you still care when I'm not there?

# And do you really wish I was there?

# Can I come there for love

# Sweet love?

# How can you tell me that you want me to stay

# How can I stay when I'm trying to say

# That I can't live without the rain?

# Yes, I can't live without the rain

# How can I feel what I'm trying to feel?

# How can I move when I'm heel to heel?

# You're always shouting about the doubt in my eyes

# But I can't answer cos my eyes are so dry

# Now I can't live without the rain

# Yes, I can't live without the rain. #

APPLAUSE

You know, it would really be very, very different

to have a little bit of ballet dancing to back a hit song

on Top Of The Pops. Would be different, wouldn't it?

Never mind, we're not going to do that, cos this is Status Quo.

# The boys know what you're giving

# You give the boys such a lot of fun

# And by the way that you make a living

# You've got the boys all on the run

# ST's showing

You really got me going

# Maybe you can give me a price

# I wanna try it Yeah, I wanna buy it

# Tell me, would you treat me nice?

# Oh, my legs are shaking

# Oh, my heart is breaking

# I'm just feeling like a boy

# Now I just can't slow down

# Gotta get in, go down

# Have my share of pride and joy

# Now I've got your name and number

# I'd like to look upon your face

# And now you know that I wanna take you

# Give me the time You can name the place

# Call me honey You can take my money

# Maybe we can make a deal

# I really mean it Gotta get between it

# Do you know the way I feel?

# Oh, I'm feeling kinda

# Like I've gotta find

# A way to make you understand

# Oh, I know you're lying

# And your love I'm buying

# Oh, I'm feeling like a man. #

# Oh, here we are And here we are and here we go

# All aboard and we're hittin' the road

# Here we go

# Rockin' all over the world

# Giddy up, giddy up and get away

# We're going crazy and we're going today

A change in tempo for Status Quo and Living On An Island.

# Easy when you're number one

# I could see

# A time for me was gonna be

# Deep in my heart

# Deep in my memory

# Deep in a part of me

# Heart of me

# Meant to be

# History

# Could it be that I'm still wondering?

# I never knew what had happened to me

# I didn't think it was true

# That I could be just like anyone else

# I'll take my chance with you

# Picture a dream

# Picture a fantasy

# Picture the mood of me

# Mystery

# You and me, a mystery

# Lost in a dream

# Lost in a fantasy

# Lost in what seemed to be dreams to me

# Seemed to be, had to be

# Couldn't find no other reason

# I never knew what had happened to me

# I didn't think it was true

# That I could be just like anyone else

# I'll take my chance with you

# Let's have a drink

# It's Margarita time

# It's Margarita time

# After nine

# Summertime, any time

# You'll still always find me wondering

Right now, over on this stage here, come this way...

We have Status Quo and a new entry at number 29,

In The Army Now. Take it away, boys.

# A vacation in a foreign land

# Uncle Sam does the best he can

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Now you remember what the draftman said

# Nothing to do all day

# But stay in bed

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood

# Nobody knows that you left for good

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Smiling faces, as you wait to land

# But once you get there no-one gives a damn

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Hand grenades flying over your head

# Missiles flying over your head

# If you want to survive Get out of bed

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Shots ring out in the dead of night

# The sergeant calls,

"Stand up and fight!"

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# You've got your orders Better shoot on sight

# Your finger's on the trigger But it don't seem right

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Night is falling and you just can't see

# Is this illusion or reality?

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# In the army now

# You're in the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# Now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# In the army now

# Oh, oh, oh, you're in the army

# In the army now. #

All right, guys, I'd want you to assume your guitar positions.

And you at home. I think you know what's coming up next,

it's a brand-new entry for Status Quo, at 31,

it's the Anniversary Waltz Part I.

# Hey, baby, won't you take a chance

# Say that you'll let me have this dance?

# Oh, let's dance

# Oh, let's dance

# We'll do the twist and stomp The mashed potato, too

# Any old dancing that you wanna do

# But let's dance

# Oh, let's dance

# Hey, baby, if you're all alone

# Say that you'll let me walk you home

# Let's dance

# Let's dance

# We'll do the twist and stomp The mashed potato, too

# Any old dancing that you wanna do

# But let's dance

# Oh, let's dance

# Riding along in my automobile

# My baby beside me at the wheel

# I stole a kiss at the turn of a mile

# My curiosity's running wild

# Cruisin' and playin' the radio

# With no particular place to go

# Riding along with my collar loose

# Still trying to get her belt a-loose

# All the way home I held a grudge

# But the safety belt it wouldn't budge

# Cruisin' and playin' the radio

# With no particular place to go

# Well, I'm the type of guy

# Who will never settle down

# Where them pretty girls are

# Well, you know that I'm around

# I kiss 'em and I love 'em

# Cos to me they're all the same

# I hug 'em and I squeeze them

# They don't even know my name

# They call me The Wanderer

# Yeah, The Wanderer

# I roam around and round and round and round and round

# They call me The Wanderer

# Yeah, The Wanderer

# I roam around and round and round and round and round

# You went away and left me long time ago

# And now you're knocking on my door

# I hear you knocking

# But you can't come in

# I hear you knocking

# Go back where you been... #

Status Quo's 100th appearance on the show.

Yes, it's true, cut the cake.

I Didn't Mean It, it's called. The Quo!

# When you say those words Those three little words

# You're in at the deep end

# Give up the night times, give up the high times

# Give up the weekend

# Give up the chance to be your own man

# Let the feeling take over

# The only way out is to lie if you can

# But you don't have the knack

# And you'll come crawling back

# Saying, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to say what I said

# It was only a game

# I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to tell you in so many words

# I didn't mean it

# I felt tied down, my pride down

# That I put that lie down

# The prize now for you is me

# Well, I was like you and all I could do was give up and surrender

# The people can trace what they did in my face

# But they're just pretenders

# They told me mercenary action today

# Is a line as simple and pure

# But what if you found you made a mistake?

# The medicine's worse than the cure

# And you'll be back for sure

# Saying, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it

I didn't mean to say what I said

# It was only a game

# I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to tell you in so many words

# I didn't mean it

# I felt tied down, my pride down

# That I put that lie down

# The prize now

# For you is me

# Give up the chance to be your own man

# Let the feeling take over

# The only way out is to lie if you can

# But you don't have the knack

# And you'll come crawling back

# Saying, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it

# I didn't mean to say in so many words

# I didn't mean it

# I felt tied down, my pride down

# That I put that lie down

# The prize now for you is me. #

APPLAUSE

# What's a boy to do

# When fate is cruel?

# Keep on keepin' on

# Try to bend the rules

# I'll do anything

# To find a way to your heart

# Got a rabbit's foot

# But luck don't come

# Got my fingers crossed

# But they go numb

# I can hold my breath

# And wish for you

# I need a miracle to make it through

# Life is hard

# I need a remedy

# For the way I feel

# My bread keeps landing jam side down

# Say you'll be there to spread love around

# I was sweet on you That's how I felt

# Got a butter heart

# You made it melt

# Like a big-eyed kid in a candy store

# I had a little sugar Now I want some more

# Life is hard

# I need a remedy

# For the way I feel

# My bread keeps landing jam side down

# Say you'll be there to spread love around

# My bread keeps landing jam side down

# Say you'll be there to spread love around

# You are my destiny

# You bring out the best in me, you

# You made me feel so lucky

# So lucky

# To have you

# And I need you

# Yeah, I need you

# Life is hard

# I need a remedy

# For the way I feel

# My bread keeps landing jam side down

# Say you'll be there to spread love around

# Life is hard

# I need a remedy

# For the way I feel

# My bread keeps landing jam side down

# Say you'll be there to spread love around
