[edit]Songs
[edit]- I went to a garden party
to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories
and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party
they all knew my name
no one recognized me
I didn't look the same
But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see ya can't please everyone
So ya got to please yourself
People came from miles around
Everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus
There was magic in the air
N' over in the corner
much to my surprise
Mr Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes
wearing his disguise
But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone
So ya got to please yourself . . .
