Deal with the Devil When I were younger, still sweet in the head I believed everything, that people said To make it to the top in the world today To make it to the top in any way hey! I don’t know but I’ve been told, To make it in this world you’ve got to sell your soul 
And I don’t know but people say A deal with the devil is the only way Well now I’m older, I got a head of grey I’m a little bit wiser, to what people say To make it to the top in the world today To make it to the top in any way, hey! I don’t know but I’ve been told, To make it in this world you’ve got to sell your soul 
And I don’t know but people say A deal with the devil is the only way And I don’t know, I don’t know - hey now! ‘Cos I don’t wanna sell my soul, I’m happy chasing rainbows for a pot of gold, A deal with the devil ‘aint for me, Happy letting life just be what it be (repeat) ‘Cos I don’t want, to sell my soul hey now no no!

Friends Where would we be without our friends, in the end? Where would we be without our mates? I’m telling you it wouldn’t be great And I just want to be with my friends every day and every night Where would we be without our friends, in the end? Where would we be without our mates? I’m telling you it wouldn’t be great And I just want to be with my friends every day and every night Hanging with my friends makes me feel alright Friends will help in times of need, share your joy when you succeed, Give you hope when you don’t believe, friends will always stick around Friends will never let you down that’s not true they’ll let you down But they’ll always stick around even when they let you down (down, down down down) Friends will help in times of need, share your joy when you succeed, Give you hope when you do not believe, friends will always stick around Friends will never let you down, that’s not true they’ll let you down But they’ll always stick around, even when they let you down (down, down down down) I just wanna be with my friends, and I just wanna be with my friends And I just wanna be with my friends, hanging with my friends tonight

Sitting in the Sun Sitting in the sun, on another perfect day Feeling the warmth of the afternoon just slip away And I’d like to be, a blade of grass, Swaying in the breeze, and if anyone should ask, I’ll tell them I’m just Sitting in the sun, sitting in the sun Sitting in the sun, sitting in the sun Sitting in the sun, and I’m as happy as I can be I got no worries, there ‘aint nothing bothering me And I’d like to be a tall and stately tree Reaching up into the sky, and if anyone should ask why, I’ll tell them I’m just sitting in the sun, sitting in the sun Sitting in the sun, it doesn’t get much better than this Hanging out with Mother Nature in total bliss And I’d like to be a river rolling down into the roaring sea So that everyone around can see that I’m just Sitting in the sun, sitting in the sun And if rain should fall, (if rain should fall) On this perfect day, (if rain should fall) It make me smile more, (this perfect day) Because a rainbow is on the way hey hey Sitting in the sun, oh yeah (repeat to fade)

Looking for God I’ve been walking this path the most of my life It’s two steps forward and one step back but that’s alright And where it’ll go, I don’t really know But I just met a wise man along the road, and he said if you're Looking for god, take a look in your heart, when you’re Searching for answers there’s no better place to start, there’s not a Book that can tell you a thing you don’t already know, not a Person around you can show you the way you should go So I thanked the man kindly and I went on my way, as I walked down the Path I could remember the words that he said These things that I seek, I may never find, while I’m still looking Outwards and not looking deep inside Looking deep in side, yeah now When you’re looking for god, take a look in your heart, when you’re Searching for answers there’s no better place to start, there’s not a Book that can tell you a thing you don’t already know, not a Person around you can show you the way you should go Oh the way to go oh yeah

Down on the Farm I’m just sitting on my farm, aint doing anybody any harm Just sitting on my farm doing no one no harm The cows in the field go moo, ‘cos that’s precisely what they’re supposed to do And the chickens go cluck, pigs roll around in muck, down on the farm At the end of the valley there’s a sea where I can see as far as I can see, You just gotta believe me, there a sea where I can see as far as I can see, Down on the farm At night when the stars come out and I ask myself What is this all about? as I gaze upon the milky way And I say to myself hey ho, maybe right across the galaxy there’s another farm With another me, where the chickens go moo, ‘cos that’s precisely what these alien chickens do and the pigs go Cluck cluck cluckety cluck cluck cluck and the cows they roll around in muck And I’m as happy as an alien cow in muck, down on my farm, I can’t believe my luck and I sing Hey oh, sing hey oh, hey hey hey, hey ohhhh and I sing Hey oh, sing hey oh, sing hey hey hey, hey ohhhh down on the farm I’m just sitting on me farm, ‘aint doing anybody any harm , down on the farm

Shining Through Woke up this morning, the sun was shining bright Looked at my calendar and it was snowy white So I looked for my notebook, with my to-do list Well I couldn’t find it, well it wont be missed I’ve got nowhere to be I’ve got nothing to do Well life is so easy when I take a step back and let my soul come shining through (repeat) So I looked out the window, at the clouds passing by Made pretty pictures, with my third eye Took a walk in the garden, stopped to smell the flowers Listened to the grass grow, for hours and hours I’ve got nowhere to be (he’s got nowhere to be) I’ve got nothing to do (he’s got nothing to do) Well life is so easy when I take a step back and let my soul come shining through (repeat) Well life is so easy when I take a step back and let my soul come shining through (repeat twice)

(When it all Goes) My Way One minute I’m up, the next I am down And most of the time I just spin round and round But when I’m song well I’m really on fire I fell my passion, I feel my desire What can I tell you about, The way that this all came about I don’t know what to say, When it all goes my way Sometimes it feel like I’m getting nowhere At other times it feels like I’m already there The path that I’m on well it feels so long One foot after the other, I carry on strong What can I tell you about, The way that this all came about I don’t know what to say, When it all goes my way Hey, hey today all goes my way, hey every day What can I tell you about, The way that this all came about I don’t know what to say, When it all goes my way I don’t know what to say, When it all goes my way

WhenYour Eyes Shine I see you in the corner of my sight, looks like the light, has caught you just right You feel me looking and you raise your eyes, staring into mine, that’s when your eyes shine Looks like somebody turned on the light just behind your eyes I know I’l see that smile tonight, when I close my eyes, what a nice surprise A pair of smiles rise in parallel, and I don’t want to break This magical spell We could be trapped here now for all time, as our gaze entwine That’s when your eyes shine Looks like somebody turned on the light just behind your eyes I know I’l see that smile tonight, when I close my eyes

I Can Fly 03:24
I Can Fly You make me feel like I’m alright You share your love and I come alive You keep my hopes and dreams inspired Where you’re around make me feel I can spread my wings and I can fly Yes I can fly When there is darkness you bring light When I can’t see you are my sight When I feel weak you show your might When you’re around make me feel I can spread my wings and I can fly Yes I can fly Your stories make me laugh and cry When we get talking well we’re up all night You share your life you let me share mine When you’re around make me feel I can spread my wings and I can fly Yes I can fly So very high Into the sky You make me feel like I’m alright

about

Nowhere To Go, Nothing To Do is the home of the alien chickens that go moo. You've never heard them? Well, Down on the Farm...

"At night when the stars come out, and I ask myself
"what is this all about?" As I gaze upon the Milky Way, and I sing to myself
"hey-oh, maybe right across the galaxy there's another farm with another me where the chickens go moo"
