Ein Kleines Kompliment
Performer(s): Louis Neefs



Ein kleines Kompliment
Hört jede Frau so gern
Es ist für sie das Schönste
Was es gibt auf uns'rem Stern
Ein kleines Kompliment
Ist mehr als Schmuck und Nerz
Es ist der gold'ne Schlüssel
Für ihr Herz
Immer wieder möchte sie es von dir hören
Diesen kleinen Wunsch sollst du
ihr nie verwehren
Wie schön wird's für dich sein
Wenn selig sie bekennt
An unserm Glück war schuld
Ein kleines Kompilment

Nichts so labil wie der Geschmack von einer Frau
Das weiss ein Mann ganz genau
Eines aber gibt's was ihr zu jeder Zeit gefällt
Gleich wo sie auch lebt auf dieser Welt

A Legend In My Time ((aka (I'd Be) A Legend in My Time (by Frank Ifield) - 1963))
Composer(s): Don Gibson
First release by: Don Gibson - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists



If heartaches brought fame
In love's crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statuettes
For tears and regrets
I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards
And there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken
Over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards
And there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken
Over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Then everyone would knoow my name
I'd be a legend in my tiime
I'd be a legend in my tiime 

King
Composer(s): James Brown; Robin Campbell; Earl Falconer
Performer(s): UB40



King, where are your people now? 
Chained and pacified
Tried in vain to show them how
And for that you died

You had a dream of a promised land
People of all nations walking hand in hand 
But they're not ready to accept 
That dream situation, yet

King, where are your people now? 
Chained and pacified
Tried invain to show them how
And for that you died

Two Of A Kind
Composer(s): Bob Montgomery - Earl Sinks
Performer(s): Sue Thompson
and multiple other artists



They say we're searching for love we'll never find
They say we're foolish kids, we're two of a kind
We know we've found our love when your lips meet mine
That's when we know they're right, we're two of a kind
No matter what they say when it's all said and done
And we are old enough, we two will be one.
And when we pass them by with your hand in mine
Then they'll just smile and say "they're two of a kind"
No matter what they say when it's all said and done
And we are old enough, we two will be one.
And when we pass them by with your hand in mine
Then they'll just smile and say "they're two of a kind"

Du gingst von mir fort - ich werde warten

Ich kann die welt ohne dich nicht verstehn 

Alles was kommt das ist sinnlos fur mich 
Denn ich bin arm ich bin arm ohne dich 
Ich will verzeihn das verspreche ich dir 
Komm doch zurück bleib fur immer bei mir 

Du gingst von mir fort - ich werde warten 
Du gabst mir dein wort - ich werde warten 

Weil erst mit dir dieses leben begann 
Ich hab gesehn dal3 es herrlich sein kann 
Alles was war, war für mich wunderschön 
Ich kann die welt ohne dich nicht verstehn 

Alles was kommt das ist sinnlos fur mich 
Denn ich bin arm ich bin arm ohne dich 
Ich will verzeihn das verspreche ich dir 
Komm doch zurück bleib fur immer bei mir 

Du gingst von mir fort - ich werde warten 
Du gabst mir dein wort - ich werde warten 
Denn du, du nur allein du bist mein sonnenschein

King Crack
Composer(s): Danielle Dax; David Knight
Performer(s): Danielle Dax



You rally round
With head-of-fire
And lips just made to lie
And promises that you never keep
'Cos your heart's made of ice

Ev'rything you do
And ev'ry thing you say
Is nothing but a season in hell
Way down, where the angel cries

You wanted wealth
And you wanted fame
But, oh, the price was too high

You dally here
And you squander there
And time just passed you by

Take another hit
And push a little shit
And skim another bucket of gold
Way down, where the angel cries

(La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
(La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)

Ev'rything you do
And ev'ry you say
Is nothing but a season in hell
Way down, where the angel cries

Way down, where the angel cries

Covered by multiple other artists



We came out west together with a common desire
The fever we had migtha set the west coast on fire
Two months later got trouble in mind
My baby moved out and left me behind
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine

The way he left sure turned my head around
Seemed like overnight she just up and put me down
Ain't gonna let it bother me today
I been workin' and I'm too tired anyway
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine
I'm sixteen hundred miles from the people I know
Been doin' all I can but opportunity sure come slow
Lord I'd be in the sun all day
But I'm sweepin' out a warehouse in west L.A.
But it's all right 'cause it's midnight
And I got two more bottles of wine

Ich Weiss, Es Wird Einmail Ein Wunder Gescheh'n
Composer(s): Bruno Balz; Michael Jary
Performer(s): Zarah Leander



Ich weiss, es wird einmal ein Wunder geschehn
und dann werden tausend Märchen wahr
Ich weiss, so schnell kann keine Liebe vergehn
die so gross ist und so wunderbar

Wir haben beide denselben Stern
und dein Schicksal ist auch meins
Du bist mir fern und doch nicht fern
denn unsere Seelen sind eins

Und darum wird einmal ein Wunder geschehn
und ich weiss, dass wir uns wiedersehn!

Wenn ich ohne Hoffnung leben müste
wenn ich glauben müste, dass mich niemand liebt
dass es nie für mich ein Glück mehr gibt
ach, das wär' schwer
Wenn ich nicht in meinem Herzen wüste
dass du einmal zu mir sagst: Ich liebe dich
wär' das Leben ohne Sinn für mich
doch ich weiss mehr

Ich weiss, es wird einmal ein Wunder geschehn...

Keinem ist mein Herz so gut gewesen
wie dem Einem, der mich jetzt verlassen hat
der für mich nicht einen Gruss mehr hat
der mich vergass
Könnt' er jetzt in meinen Augen lesen
was ich fühle, dann würd' alles anders sein
Ewig kann doch nicht verloren sein
was ich besass

Ich weiss, es wird einmal ein Wunder geschehn ...

(King Creole.............Go!)

There's a man in New Orleans who plays a-rock and roll
He's a guitar man with a great big soul
He lays down a beat like a ton of coal
He goes by the name of King Creole

You know he's gone, gone, gone
Jumpin' like a catfish on a pole, yeah
You know he's gone, gone, gone
That-a hip shakin' King Creole (King Creole, King Creole)

When the King starts to do it, it's as good as done
He holds his guitar like a tommy gun
He starts to growl from way down his throat
He bends a string and that's all she wrote

You know he's gone, gone, gone
Jumpin' like a catfish on a pole, yeah
You know he's gone, gone, gone
That-a hip shakin' King Creole (King Creole, King Creole)

He sings a song about a crawdad hole
He sings a song about a jelly roll
He sings a song about pork and greens
He wails some blues 'bout New Orleans

You know he's gone, gone, gone
Jumpin' like a catfish on a pole
You know he's gone, gone, gone
That-a hip shakin' King Creole (King Creole, King Creole)

(Instrumental Break)

(Yeah!) He plays somethin' evil, then he plays somethin' sweet
No matter what he plays, you got to get up on your feet
And when he gets the rockin fever, baby, heaven sakes
He don't stop playin' till his guitar breaks

You know he's gone, gone, gone
Jumpin' like a catfish on a pole, yeah
You know he's gone, gone, gone
That-a hip shakin' king creole
(King Creole, yeah go!)
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Hip shakin' King Creole
(Creole, Creole, Creole, Creole)

Two loves have I and they tear me apart
Two loves have I, both are in my heart

Two loves have I, but they're not the same
When I'm in a gay mood, 'tis then my light love I crave
Then again at times my other love can make me a slave
I can't deny that to both I am true
Two loves have I, both of them are you
I can't deny that to both I am true
Two loves have I, both of them are you

Ich suchte Liebe bei dir
Ich suchte Sonne und Licht
Doch ich bin einsam und frier
Was mir so fehlt, fand ich nicht

Wege die nirgendwo enden hast du mir gezeigt
Hast du ein Märchen für uns beide erzählt
Ganz wunderschön ist doch die Wahrheit verschweigt
Nur Fragen stehen hier vor mir, hier vor mir

Ich wollte einmal nur seh'n
Das du die Wunder verstehst
Die nur aus Liebe gescheh'n
Du drehst dich um und gehst

Wege die nirgendwo enden hast du mir gezeigt
Hast du ein Märchen für uns beide erzählt
Ganz wunderschön ist doch die Wahrheit verschweigt
Nur Fragen stehen hier vor mir, hier vor mir

Ich suchte Liebe bei dir
Ich suchte Sonne und Licht
Doch ich bin einsam und frier
Was mir so fehlt, fand ich nicht ...

King For A Day
Composer(s): Tom Bailey; Alannah Currie; Joe Leeway
Performer(s): The Thompson Twins



If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away for loving you

I know you well And I can tell
Something's on your mind
'Cos in your dreams The demon screams
And I know he's going to hurt you blind

Some people hunger spend a fortune all their lives
The saddest fools in paradise

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away 
I would give it all away for loving you
If I was king for just one day

Diamond rings And all those things
They never sparkle like your smile
And as for fame It's just a name
That only satisfies you for a while

I've heard it said
Or maybe read
Only money makes the world go 'round
But all the gold
Won't heal your soul
If your world should tumble to the ground

So listen,
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need yeah
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need yeah
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need yeah
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need yeah
Love is all, love is all, love is all we need yeah

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away 
I would give it all away for loving you
If I was king for just one day

If I was king for just one day
I would give it all away 
I would give it all away for loving you
If I was king for just one day

If I was King
For just one day
For just one thing to say
Love...

Watching The Clouds Roll By
From the Broadway Show "Animal Crackers" (1928)
Composer(s): Bert Kalmar; Harry Ruby
Performer(s): Bernice Ackerman & Milton Watson



Milton:
Nearly ev'ry new day for me was a blue day
My life was just one blue Monday
How the days would drag on, if they had no tag on
I couldn't tell which was Sunday

I kept my eyes on the horizon
But only clouds were there
Nothing could move them or improve them
Nobody seemed to care

Suddenly you stepped in
And happiness crept in
And ev'rything changed in one day
Now you and I can clear the sky.....

Looking for the sun
Two loving hearts are better than one
We'll have lots of fun
Watching the clouds roll by

Cares don't mean a thing
Whether it's Winter, whether it's Spring
While two hearts can sing
Watching the clouds roll by

We'll be as near as love birds
As any two
And, dear, if we're like love birds
What are a few April showers

When it's dark or fair
What does it matter, what do we care
If we both are there
Watching the clouds roll by

Bernice:
Life for me was boredom, each hour was more dumb
Than ev'ry one that preceded
Time would slowly tick off, I wanted to kick off
The hours could not be speeded

I counted all days, Spring and Fall days
Just like so many sheep
Even the night through, I'd go right through
Counting them in my sleep

Suddenly I woke up
And all the clouds broke up
For you were all that I needed
My clouds I find are silver lined

Looking for the sun
Two loving hearts are better than one
We'll have lots of fun
Watching the clouds roll by

Cares don't mean a thing
Whether it's Winter, whether it's Spring
While two hearts can sing
Watching the clouds roll by

We'll be as near as love birds
As any two
And, dear, if we're like love birds
What are a few April showers

When it's dark or fair
What does it matter, what do we care
If we both are there
Watching the clouds roll by

King George Street
Composer(s): Chris Difford; Glenn Tilbrook
Performer(s): Squeeze



She left in the middle of the night with the kids
Wrapped in a blanket with a packet of crisps
Heading for her mother's on another estate
The kids looked up at the light and the rain
In the middle of the night
Such adventures made
For two little kids
Staying up late
It was rainy and windy
As winter was bleak
At four in the morning on King George Street

She couldn't get to sleep, where on earth had he gone?
The door opened wide and the light went on
He was drunk as a lord with a tyre marked hat
Falling in the hall on top of the cat
Singing viva espana
To a crying wife
He took a swing at the shade
On the light
They were knocking on the door
Dressed like refugees
In the pouring rain on King George Street

She won't have that behavior
In her house anymore
He's got to sober up or get kicked out of the door
Down on the corner, the kids at his feet
As Daddy comes home on King George Street
As Daddy comes home

They stood around the kettle and watched as it brewed
Sneezing into hankies hands all blue
The next evening he came around to the house
With a bunch of flowers; they locked him out
He peered through the window
Mouthed words in the air
Her lips to a cup
She saw him out there
The kids came running
But were they happy to see
Their Daddy back home on King George Street
Their Daddy back home on King George Street

Two Lovely Black Eyes
Composer(s): Charles Coburn 
Performer(s): Charles Coburn



Strolling so happy down Bethnal Green
This gay youth you might have seen
Tompkins and I, with his girl between
Oh! what a surprise!
I prais'd the Conservatives frank and free
Tompkins got angry so speedilee
All in a moment he handed to me
Two lovely black eyes!

Next time, I argued I thought it best
To give the conservative side a rest
The merits of Glad-stone I freely pressed 
When
Oh! what a surprise!
The chap I had met was a Tory true
Nothing the Liberals right could do
This was my share of that argument too
Two lovely black eyes!

The moral you've caught I can hardly doubt
Never on politics rave and shout
Leave it to others to fight it out, if
You would be wise
Better, far better, it is to let
Lib'rals and Tories alone, you bet
Unless you're willing and anxious to get
Two lovely black eyes!

Two lovely black eyes!
Oh! what a surprise!
Only for telling a man he was wrong
Two lovely black eyes!

Ich singe dir ein Liebeslied
Ein literatur ......? ziert
Dass so heiß wie meine Sehnsucht blüht
Darf ich dir mein kleines Lied verschenken?

Drum singe ich dir ein Liebeslied
Ein Lied in dem die Sehnsucht blüht
Und was mir mit Worten nie gelang
Soll dir heut' Verrater mein Gesang

Wie soll ich's sagen dir, damit du nicht von mir gehst
Wenn ich dir mein Herz zu Füßen leg
Weiss ich nur einen Weg, dass du mich verstehst

Ein literatur ......? ziert
Dass so heiß wie meine Sehnsucht blüht
Darf ich dir mein kleines Lied verschenken?

Meine Wünsche, meine Klagen
Habe ich nie gewagt zu sagen
Drum singe ich dir ein Liebeslied
Ein Lied in dem die Sehnsucht blüht
Und was mir mit Worten nie gelang
Soll dir heut' Verrater mein Gesang

Covered by multiple other artists



Two lost souls on the highway of life
We ain’t even got a sister or brother
But ain’t it just great?
Ain’t it just grand?
We got each other

Two lost ships on a stormy sea
One with no sail and one with no rudder
But ain’t it just great?
Ain’t it just grand?
We got each other

Two lost sheep in the wiles of the hills
Far from the other Jacks and Jills
We wandered away and went astray
But we ain’t fussin’ ‘cause we got us ’n 

We’re two lost souls on the highway of life
There is no one with whom we would rather
So, ain’t it just great?
Ain’t it just grand?
We got each other

Mama said “No”, so we eloped
And, oh, we ain’t got a castle
For which we hoped
We got a lot 
Because we got each other
