7. Scousey
Roger Brown
Scousey, you're like a dream to me,
But who knows if you should turn out to be
As real as real can be.
Scousey, your nose, your laughing eyes,
Your charming little smile, oh, it's no surprise,
I loved you at first sight.
Now I believe, I never seen a mouse
More lovely than you.
And even if I do, he'll reminds me of you.
Scousey, I'll always remember when
I met you, it seems like I knew then
That you were going to be my friend.
Now I believe, I never seen a mouse
More lovely than you.
And even if I do, he'll reminds me of you.
Scousey, you're like a dream to me,
But if you're real, just as real can be,
Well, I'm so glad because I love you Scousey,
Wo, wo, wo, Scousey,
Wo, wo, wo, Scousey,
Wo, wo, wo, Scousey.
Dialog:
"Would you like to see my Christmas presents? Look, these dolls have all kinds of changes of clothes and they're not much bigger than you. Hey! if you can sing songs you might as well have some clothes."
"Well, I... er... wouldn't mind trying something on. You know, no obligation to buy."
"Take your choice."
"Eh... oh... er... well, I, I rather like this yellow blazer and... and... and these trousers, these, these trousers are rather nice, Oh, I'll just slip them on then."
"Well, we're going on a boat ride. Well, we're going on a boat ride..."
"That's the..."
"The Jollies!"
"but you didn't understand, I know the Jollies!"
"Ev'ryone knows the Jollies!"
The door to the cabin opened and one by one the Jollies came into the room. Holly smiled at her family. "May I present mister Scouse! sing, Scouse!"
"Oh, okay then, here it goes."
8. Boat Ride
Roger Brown
There is nothing like a boat ride,
There is nothing like a boat ride,
There is nothing like a float on a boat ride.
"Ha! ha! ha! ha! this is preposterous! where's my flute?"
Wind is blowing on the water so blue,
The seagulls are calling and the sun shines through.
There is nothing I would rather do
Than to go on a boat ride.
I want to sail away to far away lands
Where the sun shines down on golden sands.
Oh my, but isn't it grand to go on a boat ride?
There is nothing like a boat ride,
There is nothing like a boat ride,
There is nothing like a float on a boat ride.
Oh, I hope for a life on the ocean waves,
Even if I have to stole away.
I know what I will do today,
I will go on a boat ride. (toot! toot!)
There is nothing like a boat ride,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
There is nothing like a boat ride,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
There is nothing like a float on a boat ride.
Dialog:
The next morning, the Jollies took Scouse for a walk.
"Oh, isn't he cute? I just love the claws!"
"Thank you, mam."
"It's really true, he speaks!"
"I didn't know he was American."
"A mouse like me belongs to the world!"
The captain of the Q.E.2.: "Splice me whiskers! a talking mouse!"
"He sings too, Captain."
"Amazing! why don't we ask Scouse to do a number at the ship's concert?"
"Is that your cat, Captain?"
"That's the ship's cat. his name is Geoffrey."
"I know, we've been talking."
"Talking?"
"In animo, eh... animal language. I'd like to ask him to this concert."
"Yes."
The ship's concert and the Jollies in full swing.

9. Scouse The Mouse
Roger Brown
Oh, thank you, ev'rybody, we're glad you've made the show,
"Good evening.
We've got someone that we think you ought to know.
He's the greatest sensation from coast to coast,
For your direction, here's the mouse with the most.
It's Scouse, the mouse,
No ordinary, he's an extraordinary mouse.
It's Scouse, the mouse,
Bet you never seen a mouse like Scouse in your house."
Hello, ev'rybody, have a listen to my song,
If it's not too short, I hope it's not too long.
I feel real cute in my brand new suite,
But I'd feel even better if you sang along.
'Cause I'm Scouse, (that's Scouse!)
The mouse, (he's the greatest!)
No ordinary, I'm an extra ordinary mouse. (yeah!)
And I'm Scouse, (that's Scouse!)
The mouse, (what a mouse!)
I'll bet you've never seen a mouse like Scouse in your house.
Now I had a home in Liverpool,
But one day I knew what I had to do;
I escaped from my cage to be a star on the stage,
Now I'm happy as can be to sing my song for you.
'Cause I'm Scouse, (that's Scouse!)
The mouse, (he's terrific!)
No ordinary, I'm an extraordinary mouse. (yeah!)
And I'm Scouse, (that's Scouse!)
The mouse, (check that mouse!)
Did you ever see a mouse like Scouse in your house?
(Scouse, the mouse) now, take it, boys! (oo-oo-oo-ah)
(Scouse, the mouse, oo-oo-oo)
So here's a little something that's sure to please,
If you're feeling sad and blue, well, I'm the mouse to see.
If you wanna have fun, it's easily done,
Just open your mouth and sing my song with me.
'Cause I'm scouse, the mouse,
No ordinary, I'm an extra ordinary mouse.
And I'm Scouse, the mouse,
Did you ever see a mouse like Scouse in your house?
Well, I'm Scouse, (that's scouse!)
The mouse, (the one and only!)
No ordinary, I'm an extraordinary mouse. (yeah!)
And I'm Scouse, (that's Scouse!)
The mouse, (the mouse!)
I'll bet you've never seen a mouse like Scouse in your house. (yeah!)
Yeah!
Dialog:
The audience cheered, Scouse had triumphed. With a mousely bow he handed the microphone to Molly Jolly.
10. Passenger Pigeon
Roger Brown and Donald Pleasence
Polly Jolly:


If you're feeling funny and your nerves are raw
Remember the Shoe-billed Stork
He had little time to fly before he nearly had to walk
And no-one saved the Passenger Pigeon

And if you're feeling down, if you're feeling low
Consider the condition of the buffalo
Thousands roamed the plains, now there's just a few for show
And no-one saved the Passenger Pigeon

Now you can find an Aadvark or a
And also a turkey or a Duck-billed Platyplus
But Ectopistes migratorius has long since flown away from us
No-one saved the Passenger Pigeon

So if you're kinda shaky and you're feeling frail
Bear in mind the plight of the Great Blue Whale
The last thing he'll remember he'll have whalers on his trail
Then he'll be gone just like the Passenger Pigeon"

11. I Know A Place
Roger Brown, Ruan O'Lochlainn and Donald Pleasence
I know a place that's wild but safe,
Where oak trees grow with pine.
Where the Big Bad Wolf meets Red Riding Hood
And they laugh and get along just fine.
And when I think of you and think of me,
I wonder who's you a which is me.
When the clock strikes twelve,
Will it be safe for me?
I know a place in the us of a,
Where the Statue of Liberty stands tall.
Where a fat pussy cat and a little white mouse
Waltz happy at a ball.
And when I think of you and think of me,
I wonder who's you a which is me.
Will the fat pussy cat eat this little white mouse for tea?

Dialog:
Scouse sings in animo to his friend, Geoffrey the cat
Don't eat me, let's be friends,
Don't eat me, let's be friends,
Don't eat me, let's be friends,
Don't eat me, let's be friends.
Dialog:
"Thank you, thank you. Here's a song you may have heard before, 'Snow up your nose for Christmas.'Happy new year, everybody!"
Snow up your nose for Christmas...
Dialog:
Scouse left the stage and joined Geoffrey the Cat at his table.
"I can see what you mean."
"I hope you would."
"Look here, we've got a little place, we call it 'the discateque.' How about a drink and a dance and some conversation?"
"Why not?"
"I will come scratching on your cabin door."
Soon after midnight, scouse heard a gentle scratch and faint meow. Geoffrey was waiting outside.
"What's that you've got there?"
"British Airways bag. a few presents for the cats."
"Come on!"
"Where are we going?"
"You'll see."
Along the main corridor and down three flights of steps, to a little trap door which swung in each direction. a little door marked "danger! inspection trap!".
"Through here."
Scouse felt himself falling through space. He landed with a bump.
"You, you might had killed me!"
"Suppose so. Know where we are?"
"No?"
"Inspection shaft. we're above the ocean here."
"It's cold and damp! is, is this the discateque?"
"Yes, it's a good floor for dancing."
"Where, where are the cats?"
Meow! meow! meow!... (cat noises)
"Let's have some light! There's a moon! heave-ho! my hearty!"
A small port hole was opened. Scouse could smell the sea.
"We're going to have a dance now and after that we'll sentence you!"
"Oh, what for?"
"Pretending to be a human being. Engage, chaps! the dance is on."
"There's no music?"
"We make the music. ever heard of a caterwaul?"

12. Caterwaul
Jim Parker
(Instrumental)
Dialog:
"You are sentenced to death by water. You are to be given the order of the paw. paws, all ready! fire!"
Twelve paws lifted Scouse from the floor. He flew out the porthole like a well kicked football. Sitting on his British Airways bag, he rode the waves like a roller-coaster.
"Oh, oh, I'll drown! I could try S.O.S. I suppose."



13. S.O.S.
Roger Brown
Night is fallen and the cold wind moans,
I have never felt so far from home,
I am cast away and left alone.
The stars above me seem so far away,
If there is morning, will I see the day?
Won't someone come and carry me away?
S.O.S., S.O.S.,
S.O.S., S.O.S.
Dialog:
A seagull made a perfect landing beside him.
"Ah, you've got a problem?"
He spoke animo with a Brooklyn accent.
"I've just got pawed off the ship!"
"I know, I've seen it. you came out of there like a bullet! I'm Louey, the gull. I run this town! let's get you back on the ship."
"You really can? My group's there, you see."
"Group? a bloodgroup? are you wounded or something?"
"No, I'm an international star."
"You look like a mouse to me."
Louey took the straps of the British Airways bag in his beak a lifted off like a jumbo.
14. Ask Louey
Roger Brown
Louey, I'm Louey, flying my own private jet.
Like I've got wings that brings me
In touch with the fancy jet set.
I'm Louey, big Louey,
If you think that I'm not the big boss,
Then Louey, big Louey,
Will explain you're on the wrong course.
If you're in trouble and in need in help,
You don't need to call no one else.
If you plan to
Ask Louey, Louey, but nowhere to find where it's at.
Ask Louey, Big Louey,
'Cause if you don't you'll never get fat.
Don't play with fire,
Don't rouse my ire, can ya dig?
I'm mister big, I'm mister big.
I'm Louey, big Louey,
I'll tell you where the pickers have hid.
Just Louey, big Louey,
The greatest since the sunny dance kid.
I'm Louey, big Louey,
I know that you think I'm a real gull.
But I'm better, much better,
The truth is I'm Louey, the seagull.
Don't play with fire,
Don't rouse my ire, you dig?
I'm mister big.
I'm mister big, I'm the big one.
You've gotta talk to me.
This is my place!
You're talking to the big one.
I'm the big one.
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
Dialog:
The passengers crowded the decks. they looked at New York, the Statue Of Liberty, the winter sun on the Hudson River.
Louey landed delicately.
"Look out, folks! here's Scousey!"
"Scousey! where have you been?"
"Early morning dip. the water's not too bad. New York! look at it! dirty and big and beautiful and it's all mine!"





15. A Mouse Like Me
Ruan O'Lochlainn
Now you can count on me,
I'll be there you see,
On the stage of the Carnegie Hall.
When the house lights go down,
That's when I'll come on,
'Cause I'm a mouse and I'm really quite small.
'Cause a mouse like me belongs to the world,
And the world is a great place to be.
And a mouse like me just sings for the world
That goes round and round for free.
You can count on me,
I'll be there you'll see,
I'll be there when you need a friend.
When you're feeling down,
That's when I'll be your clown,
And we'll sing our songs to the end.
'Cause a mouse like me belongs to the world,
And the world is a great place to be.
And a mouse like me just sings for the world
That goes round and round for free.
A mouse like me belongs to the world,
And the world is a great place to be.
And a mouse like me just sings for the world
That goes round and round for free.
A mouse like me belongs to the world,
And the world is a great place to be.
And a mouse like me just sings for the world
That goes round and round for free.
A mouse like me belongs to the world,
And the world is a great place to be.
And a mouse like me just sings for the world
That goes round and round for free.

The History of The 'Lost' Ringo Starr Album


The idea for this album came during a visit to the Bahamas in December 1986, when Ringo bumped into producer/guitarist 'Chips' Moman. Enthusiastically, they talked of recording at least three albums, with Ringo's input much the same as it had been for 'Beaucoup Of Blues' - he would sing to prerecorded 'backing tracks'.

Recording began at Moman's Three Alarm Studios in Memphis in February 1987. News of the sessions leaked out, with the 'Memphis Commercial Appeal' announcing that the "aging Beatle is yesterday's news". Starr threatened to shift recording to Los Angeles, but this was avoided when Moman organized a picket of the newspaper, prompting the city council to rush through a resolution honoring Starr.

Because "it might be a historic moment", Ringo insisted the sessions were video-taped, especially the ones where Eric Clapton, Dave Edmunds, Carl Perkins and reputedly Bob Dylan attended. Fourteen songs were recorded in total, of which 'I Can Help', 'Some Kind Of Wonderful', 'Beat Patrol', 'Ain't That A Shame' and 'Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day' and 'Whisky And Soda' have been confirmed as titles. Two Perkins numbers may also have been recorded. Sessions went through until late April.

But why was this album never released? In part, after only one album, Ringo had had enough of Moman, and ceased communication with him upon his return to England. But more to the point, as Ringo himself acknowledged, on "certain nights, we were all under the influence of wine, tequila or whatever lese we felt like drinking". As a result of Ringo's drinking problem, the album's scheduled July 1989 US release on CBS Records was cancelled.

Subsequently, Moman, who bankrolled the sessions ($150 per hour studio time), decided to release the album to coincide with Ringo's successful Summer '89 'All Starr' US tour. Ringo tried to block its release. From the evidence heard in court, it appears that while Ringo did consider releasing the album to capitalise on the tour, he had ended up opposing its release for a number of reasons. Moman had apparently refused to allow Ringo to overdub drums onto the recordings "to get more of my personality on it". Further, having conquered his drinking problem by 1990, Ringo felt less than happy releasing a song called 'Whisky And Soda'. Accepting Starr's argument that the album wasn't up to scratch because of his then drink dependency, the Atlanta court granted Starr an injunction in November '89, blocking its immediate release by Moman's own CRS Records.

Further, in January '90, Moman was required surrender the master tapes, in exchange for which Starr was to pay him $74,354 in recording expenses - less than half the total recording expenses, which totalled a massive $162,000.

It is unlikely that this album will ever be released. Further, to date, it appears that no audio or video outtakes from these sessions have made their way into the hands of bootleggers.

Дякую за тексты сонгов!

Мнение Ginger Baker (Classic Rock, апрель 2010 года)

В Минске на парковке у магазина "Музыка" уже несколько месяцев стоит автомобиль Лада с российскими номерами(регион 77). Если хозяин перебрался в нашу ностальгическую страну на ПМЖ, то этого МЖ он до сих пор, видимо, не нашёл - багажник по самую крышу забит всяким барахлом.

К чему это я? А вот к чему - среди коробок,банок и прочей одежды к боковому стеклу прижат mp3 Ринго! Нет,неспроста этот российский меломан(а может - битломан?) выбрал место для стоянки своего корыта! Кто-то берёт с собой на необитаемый остров "Сержанта", а кто-то - в заповедник дикого Советского Союза - все альбомы лучшего из битлов. Ринго - в президенты!!! Форева!!!

Совершенно случайно наткнулся вот на такое раритетное видео, где мы можем видеть родителей Ринго :)

2Котяра:

Спасибо, там весь канал клёвый - оригинальные видеоролики о ранних Битлз. Подписался.

Спасибо большое! многие вещи в фильме стали ближе ипонятнее

Это просто глупо просить их. Получится - они часть Ринго Старр бэнда. Кто на это согласится?))

Очень смешно звучит из уст Ринго: "Я пообещал Полу, что он исполнит по две своих песни, как и все участники бэнда, но он сослался на занятость" Если это не стёб Ринго, то я не знаю что))

При том, что иногда участники его бэнда пели и по 3 песни на концерте:)
Стёб, скорее всего.

2Воробьёв Александр:
>Стёб, скорее всего.
совершенно понятно что Ринго хочет чтоб Пол сыграл в его группе и знает что это невозможно. Вот и остаётся только шутить)

Или надеяться на кратковременные реюнионы на сцене и в студии, которые имели место в 2009 и 2010 годах, к примеру.
