Both Sides Of People |
1969

This is the second album by the band People!, in which Larry was one of two lead vocalists. Ironically, although Larry had left the band on the day their first album was released, he is featured more prominently on this one
i've got you on my mind
[Go to Song Page]
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
And I still love you
I thought the time was right
And so I said goodbye
Now that you’re gone I find
That I still love you
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
And I still love you
Don't wanna go
Don't wanna stay
I still love you
But now I know
This is the day
That I care
Ba pa ba pa [x2]
Despite how hard I tried
To get you off my mind
Your memory’s locked inside
And I still love you
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I’ve got you on my
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
And I still love you
I thought the time was right
And so I said goodbye
Now that you’re gone I find
That I still love you
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
I've got you on my mind
And I still love you
Don't wanna go
Don't wanna stay
I still love you
But now I know
This is the day

Despite how hard I tried
To get you off my mind
Your memory’s locked inside
And I still love you
I've got you on my mind

I've got you on my mind
I’ve got you on my
hasty heart
[Go to Song Page]
Darling please forgive my hasty heart
If I seem a bit too hasty please forgive me
But I'm just afraid I'll lose you if I'm slow
And I can't afford to wait until you want me
'Cause I need you just too much to let you go
All I ask is that you try to understand me
I'm confused now and I need a little time
I'm so afraid that if I somehow get hurt inside
I'll end upside down outside my mind
Darling please forgive my hasty heart
If I only knew a way that I could reach you
I would let out every fear I've kept inside
I'm afraid that if I'm forced to live without you
I'll end upside down outside my mind
If I seem a bit too hasty please forgive me
But I'm just afraid I'll lose you if I'm slow
And I can't afford to wait until you want me
'Cause I need you just too much to let you go
Darling please forgive my hasty heart
Darling please forgive my hasty heart
If I seem a bit too hasty please forgive me
But I'm just afraid I'll lose you if I'm slow
And I can't afford to wait until you want me
'Cause I need you just too much to let you go
All I ask is that you try to understand me
I'm confused now and I need a little time
I'm so afraid that if I somehow get hurt inside
I'll end upside down outside my mind

I'm afraid that if I'm forced to live without you
I'll end upside down outside my mind
If I seem a bit too hasty please forgive me
But I'm just afraid I'll lose you if I'm slow
And I can't afford to wait until you want me
'Cause I need you just too much to let you go
Darling please forgive my hasty heart

(Think) About the good things
(Think think) About the bad things
(Think think) About the right things
(Think think) About the wrong things
Baby before you leave me you'll realise I'm the one who loves you
Think of all the sacrifices that I made for you
Think of all the hard times that I spent with you
Think of all the good things that I did for you
Think of all the bad things I tried not to do
Ah c'mon children and

I must have won your happiness, do I have to claim
A man affairs a few share of which I was to blame
[The correct lyric is How many tears have you shed for which I was to blame, but Gene sang it exactly as he heard it on the original recording]
Lord I can't remember just what it was now
I tried so hard to please you baby, least that's what I thought
Ah c'mon children and

she's a dancer
[Go to Song Page]
She’s a dancer in the garden (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
And she dances with the flowers (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
In the early morning hours (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
When the wind shifts (Ooh-ooh)
And the fog drifts (Ooh-ooh)
She’s a dancer
She’s a dancer and she knows it (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Everywhere she goes she shows it (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Condescending (Ooh-ooh)
Not pretending (Ooh-ooh)
No regretting (Ooh-ooh)
No forgetting (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
She’s a dancer
And on my early morning walks I often find her
I sit pretending that I’m looking at the paper
Oh
And when people stop to watch her (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
She pretends she doesn’t see them (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Doesn’t need them (Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And where she goes
There the wind blows (Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Though it’s only with the flowers (Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh)
That she dances
And on my early morning walks I often find her
I sit pretending that I’m looking at the paper
She’s a dancer in the garden (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
And she dances with the flowers (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
In the early morning hours (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
When the wind shifts (Ooh-ooh)
And the fog drifts (Ooh-ooh)
She’s a dancer
She’s a dancer and she knows it (Ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Everywhere she goes she shows it (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

pirate bill
Pirate Bill
Will you change your ways
You’ve had your fill
Of those pirate days
And while you've grown
Your parrot's flown
And all your good men have gone home
They will return with the penguin king
And sail to the island of toad
Sail to the island of toad
Penguin king (Ooh ooh)
Now what do you say
Without your wing (Ooh ooh ooh)
Could you show the way
I don’t need wings to fly you there (La la la la la la la lah)
And show you the true magic stone (Ooh ooh ooh)
Just sing my song and we’ll sail today (La la la la la la la lah)
Sail to the island of toad (Ooh ooh ooh)
Sail to the island of toad (Ooh ooh ooh)
Sail to the island of toad
Sailing to the isle of toad (Sailing to the isle of toad)
Searching for the magic stone (Searching for the magic stone)
Forty points of lying have shown (Ah ah ah)
From the mountain top of tone
(Pirate Bill) [x4]
The penguin king aloft the mast (Ooh ooh ooh)
Could see the magic stone at last (Ooh ooh ooh)
(Pirate Bill. pirate Bill)
A ray of light shone through the storm (Ooh ooh ooh)
To guide them safely out of harm (Ooh ooh ooh)
Pirate Bill [x4]
Climbing to the mountain top (Ooh ooh ooh)
Pirate Bill just had to stop (Ooh ooh ooh)
Pirate Bill, pirate Bill
The stone poured rightness down in streams (Ooh ooh ooh)
And faded pirate Bill's blue jeans (Ooh ooh ooh)
Bill's blue jeans [x4]
It took the king and pirate Bill (Ooh ooh ooh)
To lift the stone from off the hill (Ooh ooh ooh)
Pirate Bill, pirate Bill
The men were waiting down below (Ooh ooh ooh)
If pirate Bill would only show (Ooh ooh ooh)
Pirate Bill [x8]
Magic stones can do anything (Ah ah ah ah)
Now pirate Bill looks like penguin king (Ah ah ah ah)
You changed the world to serenity (La la la la la la la lah)
With penguins where humans have been (Ah ah ah)
Your guiding light will be everywhere (La la la la la la la lah)
And soon every man will have wings (Ah ah ah)
Soon every man will have wings (Ah ah ah)
Soon every man will have wings

Capitol used several different factories to press their US records. Pressings from each can be identified by symbols etched in the matrix area:
- Jacksonville, Florida - signified by the letter O, which sometimes looks like an octagon, and a 1.5" diameter pressing ring
- Los Angeles, California - signified by what looks like the petals of a flower / an asterisk, and a 1 9/16" diameter pressing ring
- Scranton, Pennsylvania - signified by the letters I AM inside a triangle. Some pressings also had an & symbol, indicating that the lacquers were stereo
- Winchester, Virginia - signified by a line that branches into a triangle. The symbol looks like a long stemmed wine glass, and is intended to represent a Winchester rifle. Winchester pressings have a 1.390625" diameter pressing ring. Side 1 also had a 0.34375" ring and side 2 a 0.53125" ring. Note that production in the Winchester plant started in 1969, and there are no Winchester pressings of this album
