I'm not content to be with you in the daytime,

THE KINKS - Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there,
His clothes are loud, but never square.
It will make or break him so hes got to buy the best,
cause hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
And when he does his little rounds,
round the boutiques of london town,
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends,
cause hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is).
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at,
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight,
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion.
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is).
Theres one thing that he loves and that is flattery.
One week hes in polka-dots, the next week he is in stripes.
cause hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
They seek him here, they seek him there,
In regent street and leicester square.
Everywhere the carnabetian army marches on,
Each one an dedicated follower of fashion.
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is).
His world is built round discoteques and parties.
This pleasure-seeking individual always looks his best
cause hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
Oh yes he is (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,
cause hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
Hes a dedicated follower of fashion.
Hes a dedicated follower of fashion.

THE KINKS - Days
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.
I bless the light,
I bless the light that lights on you believe me.
And though youre gone,
Youre with me every single day, believe me.
Days Ill remember all my life,
Days when you cant see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon youd leave me,
But its all right,
Now Im not frightened of this world, believe me.
I wish today could be tomorrow,
The night is dark,
It just brings sorrow anyway.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.
Days Ill remember all my life,
Days when you cant see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon youd leave me,
But its all right,
Now Im not frightened of this world, believe me.
Days.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
Im thinking of the days,
I wont forget a single day, believe me.
I bless the light,
I bless the light that shines on you believe me.
And though youre gone,
Youre with me every single day, believe me.
Days.

THE KINKS
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, its only natural?
Another saturday, another date.
She would be ready but shes always make them wait.
In the hallway, in anticipation,
He didnt 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,
Thats 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 a 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 can 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 theres a car park where the palais used to stand.
My sisters married and she lives on an estate.
Her daughters go out, now its 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.
Dont be afraid to come dancing,
Its 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.

THE KINKS - CELLULOID HEROES
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star,
And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are.
There are stars in every city,
In every house and on every street,
And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Their names are written in concrete!
Don't step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the Boulevard,
She looks so weak and fragile that's why she tried to be so hard
But they turned her into a princess
And they sat her on a throne,
But she turned her back on stardom,
Because she wanted to be alone.
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive,
And he looks up ladies' dresses as they sadly pass him by.
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi
'Cos he's liable to turn and bite,
But stand close by Bette Davis
Because hers was such a lonely life.
If you covered him with garbage,
George Sanders would still have style,
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney
He would still turn round and smile,
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn
'Cos she's not very tough,
She should have been made of iron or steel,
But she was only made of flesh and blood.
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of.
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are.
And those who are successful,
Be always on your guard,
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along Hollywood Boulevard.
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.
You can see all the stars as you walk along Hollywood Boulevard,
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of,
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame,
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain.
Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die.
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show,
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes,
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die.

THE KINKS - APEMAN
I think I'm sophisticated
'cos Im living my life like a good homosapien
But all around me everybodys multiplying
Till they're walking round like flies man
So Im no better than the animals sitting in their cages
In the zoo man
'cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
I am an ape man
I think Im so educated and Im so civilized
'cos I'm a strict vegetarian
But with the over-population and inflation and starvation
And the crazy politicians
I dont feel safe in this world no more
I dont want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an ape man
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man I'm an ape man
I'm a king kong man I'm ape ape man
I'm an ape man
'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 ape man
In mans evolution he has created the cities and
The 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 ape man
I'm an ape, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an ape man
I look out my window, but I cant see the sky
'cos the air pollution is fogging up my eyes
I want to get out of this city alive
And make like an ape man
Come and love me, be my ape man girl
And we will be so happy in my ape man world
I'm an ape man, Im an ape ape man, Im an ape man
I'm a king kong man, Im a voo-doo man
I'm an ape man
I'll be your tarzan, you'll be my jane
I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
And well sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
Just like an ape man
I'm an ape man, I'm an ape ape man, I'm an ape man
I'm a king kong man, Im a voo-doo man
I'm an ape man.
I dont feel safe in this world no more
I dont want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore
And make like an ape man.

THE KINKS - A WELL RESPECTED MAN
'cause he gets up in the morning,
and he goes to work at nine,
and he comes back home at five-thirty,
gets the same train every time.
'cause his world is built 'round punctuality,
it never fails.
And he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And his mother goes to meetings,
while his father pulls the maid,
and she stirs the tea with councilors,
while discussing foreign trade,
and she passes looks, as well as bills,
at every suave young man.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And he likes his own backyard,
and he likes his fags the best,
'cause he's better than the rest,
and his own sweat smells the best,
and he hopes to grab his father's loot,
when pater passes on.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And he plays at stocks and shares,
and he goes to the regatta,
and he adores the girl next door,
'cause he's dying to get at her,
but his mother knows the best about
the matrimonial stakes.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.

THE KINKS - WIKIPEDIA Y TEMAS
The Kinks were an English rock band formed in Muswell Hill, North London, by brothers Ray Davies and Dave Davies in 1964. Categorized in the United States as a British Invasion band, The Kinks have been cited as one of the most important and influential rock bands of the era.[1][2] Their music was influenced by a wide range of genres, including R&B, British Music hall, folk and country. The group's original lineup consisted of Ray Davies (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Dave Davies (vocals, lead guitar), Pete Quaife (bass guitar), and Mick Avory (drums and percussion). Ray and Dave Davies remained the only permanent members in the group throughout it's run, with a frequently changing roster of bassists, keyboardists and backup singers. Pete Quaife left the group in 1969, and was replaced by John Dalton, who would remain with the group until 1978, when, upon his departure, he was replaced by Jim Rodford. Avory remained with the group throughout most of its history, leaving in 1984.[1]
The Kinks first gained prominence in 1964 with their third single, "You Really Got Me", written by Ray Davies.[1][3][2] It became an international hit upon release, topping the charts in the UK and reaching the Top 10 in the US.[4][3][2] Throughout the remainder of the decade the group released a string of commercially and critically successful singles and albums. They became known for songs and concept albums reflecting on English culture and lifestyle, fueled by Ray Davies' observational songwriting style.[2][1] Albums such as Face to Face, Something Else, The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society, Arthur, Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Muswell Hillbillies and their accompanying singles are considered amongst the most influential recordings of the period.[1][5][3] The Kinks continued throughout the 1970s and found little success, but eventually experienced a revival during the New Wave era, when groups such as The Jam, The Knack, and The Pretenders covered Kinks songs, helping boost the band's record sales. In the 1990s Britpop acts such as Blur, Oasis, and Supergrass cited them as major influences.[1] Due to a lack of success and creative tension between the Davies brothers, the group split in 1996.[6]
The Kinks have charted five singles in the Top 10 on the US Billboard charts, and nine of their albums have charted in the the Top 40.[7] In the UK, the group has charted fourteen Top 20 singles on New Musical Express, with five Top 10 albums.[8] The Kinks have been the recipient of several awards and honors, including the Ivor Novello Award, for "Outstanding Service to British Music".[9] In 1990, their first year of eligibility, the original four members of The Kinks were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.[10][3]
