Help! I need somebody
Help! Not just anybody
Help! You know I need someone
Help!

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
And now those days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the door

(chorus)

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
Down down down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
'Round 'round 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Ground ground ground
Won't you please, please help me

Pete, look, I think I'm a bit toppy
And I'm a bit bottomy, Pete

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like I've never done before

(chorus)

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
HELP!
And I do appreciate you being 'round
HELP!
Help me get my feet back on the ground
HELP!
Won't you please, please help me

They're gonna take the Bananas off 'ere aren't they ?
Yeah They're just doing backing vocals We're singing the medley
Well, we better be Otherwise there'll be trouble
Hm, hm !

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
And now those days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the door

(chorus)

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
Down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
'Round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Ground
Won't you please, please help me
Help me, help me, Ooh

Oh, the Bananas finished too early again
I know
That's it I'm leaving, forget now Pete
Oh, that's in the can Pete, it's in the can !
You can join their group, then
It's in the can, it's a wrap, it's a wrap
Shut up, Kim !
