Lucille Pourquoi reviens-tu ce soir? Lucille Maintenant il est trop tard Entre nous c'est fini Je ne veux plus te revoir
Lucille Pourquoi viens-tu t'excuser? Lucille Je t'ai déjà oubliée Tu ne comptes plus pour moi Tu devrais t'en aller
Quand je t'ai vue danser avec lui dans le noir J'aurais voulu pleurer car je ne pouvais pas le croire Lucille Et quand il t'a embrassée Mon cur s'est mis à battre et mes mains à trembler
Oh! Lucille
Oh! Lucille Je ne sais pas ce qui m'a pris Lucille Comme un fou je suis parti Tu avais tout brisé Tout, en une seule nuit
Money Burns A Hole In My Pocket Composer(s): Bob Hilliard; Jule Styne Performer(s): Dean Martin; Troy Connolly; Jeff Harnar
Money burns a hole in my pocket How I wish I had millions of dollars and nothing to do But just buy pretty presents for you
Money burns a hole in my pocket How I wish I had oil wells in Texas to keep me supplied With money while I sit by your side
Every day of the week We would visit the store All the beautiful things you see Would soon be yours Cuz money burns a hole in my pocket So I'm bringing your perfume and candy and roses of red And wishing they were diamonds instead
Every day of the week We kinda visit the store All the beautiful things you see Would soon be yours Money burns a hole in my pocket So I'm bringing your perfume and candy and roses of red And wishing they were diamonds instead

Versions In Other Languages: 1979 - Lásko, Mne Ubývá Sil (Pavel Bobek) 1984 - Pourquoi M'laisses-Tu Pas Tranquille, Lucille? (Eddy Mitchell)
In a bar in Toledo across the depot On a barstool she took off her ring I thought I'd get closer So I walked on over I sat down and ask her name When the drink finally hit her She said I'm no quitter But I finally quit living on drinks I'm hungry for laughter And here ever after
In the mirror I saw him I closely watch him I thought how he looked out of place He came to the woman Sat down beside me He had a strange look on his face The big hands are callous He looked like a mountain From a minute I thought I was dead But he started shaking But his big heart was breaking
You picked the fine time to leave me, Lucille Four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad time Live thru' some sad times But this time the hurting won't heal You pick the fine time to leave me, Lucille
After he left her I ordered some whisky I thought how she made hime look small From thee lights of the barroom To rented hotel room We walked without talking at all She was a beauty But when she came to me She must have thought I lose my mind I couldn't hold her The words that he told her The words that he told her Kept coming back time after time
Gilligan's Island Composer(s): Sherwood Schwartz; George Wyle Performer(s): Manic Hispanic; and various other artists
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale A tale of a fateful trip That started from this tropic port Aboard this tiny ship The mate was a mighty sailing man The skipper brave and sure Five passengers set sail that day For a three hour tour, a three hour tour The weather started getting rough The tiny ship was tossed If not for the courage of the fearless crew The minnow would be lost, the minnow would be lost The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle With Gilligan The Skipper too The millionaire and his wife The movie star The professor and Mary Ann Here on Gilligan's Isle So this is the tale of the castaways They're here for a long, long time They'll have to make the best of things It's an uphill climb The first mate and the Skipper too Will do their very best To make the others comfortable In the tropic island nest No phone, no lights no motor cars Not a single luxury Like Robinson Crusoe As primative as can be So join us here each week my friends You're sure to get a smile From seven stranded castaways Here on "Gilligan's Isle"

Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verlaat de aarde Neem al het kwade Weer met je mee
't Is donker op de aarde Je schaduw waart rond Met wel duizend zwaarden En geen mens zegt stop De onschuld gaat tenonder En gaat haar martelgang We wachten op een wonder We wachten al zo lang
Het onrecht tiert welig Een witte mars trekt op Het recht is overspelig En hinkelt achterop De liefde lijkt verloren Nog voordat ze begon Ze was als dood geboren En satan overwon
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verlaat de aarde Neem al het kwade Weer met je mee
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verdwijn in het donker Diep in spelonken Of vlammenzee
En miljoenen jaren Glijden door je hand Die hele mensenschare Wacht op het beloofde land 't Vertrouwen is geschonden We leven zo alleen We kunnen enkel bidden Heer, help ons hier doorheen Heer, help ons hier doorheen Heer, help ons hier doorheen
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verlaat de aarde Neem al het kwade Weer met je mee
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verdwijn in het donker Diep in spelonken Of vlammenzee
We kunnen enkel bidden Heer, help ons hier doorheen
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verlaat de aarde Neem al het kwade Weer met je mee
Weg Lucifer Lucifer, verdwijn in het donker Diep in spelonken Of vlammenzee

Gigolette Composer(s): M. Eddy; Franz Léhar; José Ferreo Performer(s): Lucienne Boyer
Lorsque la nuit s'épanouit Mystérieusement comme une fleur funèbre Le dernier bruit s'évanouit Et la ville s'endort dans le xx des lèvres Il c'est alors que dans l'ombre qui les protège Et tout xxxxxx parlant tout bas L'attaché xxxxx sous le ciel lourd de neige Cachant au ras des murs leur étrange manège
Et le beau gars serrant dans ses bras Sa gigolette, sa gigolette Lui sourit et tendre lui dit : Ma gigolette, ma gigolette J'te f'rai jamais gagner l'gros lot Mais quand fortune tape au rideau Les rupins coquins s'amenaient toujours Ça c'est la vraie amour
Sur le boulevard, il se fait tard Et le bourgeois craintif se rend vers sa demeure Un jeune fêtard, au teint blafard S'avance en frissonnant sous la bise qui pleure Et c'est alors que dans l'ombre qui le protège Et tout xxxxxxx on n'entend pas Brusquement la xxxxx se jette sur le gibier pris au piège Un cri d'angoisse, un râle et du sang sur la terre
Et le beau gars serrant dans ses bras Sa gigolette, sa gigolette Lui sourit et tendre lui dit Ma gigolette, ma gigolette Je viens de décrocher le gros lot Mais ta vraie fortune c'est Julot Les rupins peuvent bien s'amener toujours Rien ne vaut la vraie amour

I'm crucified Crucified like my savior Saintlike behavior A lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified For the holy dimension Godlike ascension Heavens away
I've seen the deepest darkness And wrestled with gods Ride the noble harness Raining cats and dogs I stand before my maker Like moses on the hill My guinness record baker I abide your will
The first of reciters I saw eternal light Best of vocal fighters Beyond human sight Where thorns are a teaser I've played a double jeux Yherushalaim at easter I cry I pray mon dieu I cry I pray mon dieu
I'm crucified Crucified like my savior Saintlike behavior A lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified For the holy dimension Godlike ascension Heavens away
Prophets I've been reading Stories I've been told Before I end my breathing I travel in the soul Where thorns are a teaser I've played a double jeux Yherushalaim at easter I cry I pray mon dieu I cry I pray mon dieu I cry I pray mon dieu Adieu mon dieu
I'm crucified Crucified like my savior Saintlike behavior A lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified For the holy dimension Godlike ascension Heavens away
I'm crucified Crucified like my savior Saintlike behavior A lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified For the holy dimension Godlike ascension Heavens away

Money, get away Get a good job with good pay and you're okay Money, it's a gas Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash New car, caviar, four star daydream, Think I'll buy me a football team
Money, get back I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack Money, it's a hit Don't give me that do goody good bullshit I'm in the high-fidelity first class traveling set And I think I need a Lear jet
Money, it's a crime Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie Money, so they say Is the root of all evil today But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise That they're giving none away
"HuHuh! I was in the right!" "Yes, absolutely in the right!" "I certainly was in the right!" "You was definitely in the right That geezer was cruising for a bruising!" "Yeah!" "Why does anyone do anything?" "I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!" "I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2 He was asking why he wasn't coming up on freely After I was yelling and screaming and Telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

Arriva Gigi l'amoroso Der uns entflammt, augen wie Samt die Liebe schenken Gigi l'amoroso der alle rührt Der uns verführt, an die sünde zu denken Ein grosses fest fing an wenn er begann Zaza, Luna Caprese, O sole mio
Gigi Giuseppe Aber jeder nannte ihn Gigi den Geliebten Die Frauen waren verrückt nach ihm - alle Die Frau des Bäckers, die jeden dienstag den laden schloss, um Die frau des Notars, eine Heilige, die nie zuvor ihren Mann betrogen hatte und die witwe des obersten, die keinen schleier mehr trug, weil er schwarz nicht mochte Alle, sage ich ihnen Auch ich bis eines tages
Da kam fern übern teich eine miss, die war reich, die schlug ihm vor Komm mit mir nach Hollywood Drüben wirst du ein star Wie Caruso es war So sagte sie in heisser liebesglut Und er fiel darauf rein und er liess uns allein Uns brach das herz Als es an den abschied ging Dennoch glaubten wir gern dass nun aufging sein stern Gigi eroberte Amerika Das ganze dorf sang mit, als er zum bahnhof schritt
Arriva Gigi l'amoroso Der uns entflammt, augen wie Samt Die Liebe schenken Gigi l'amoroso Der alle rührt Der uns verführt, an die sünde zu denken Und vor der menge sang er noch einmal Zaza, Luna Caprese, O sole mio
Viele Jahr' ist er fort ohne gruss ohne wort No news, das heisst good news sagt ein sprichwort ja Wir vermissten ihn sehr und es fiel uns so schwer Bis wir begriffen er ist nicht mehr da Aber oft in der nacht wenn das schweigen erwacht Wenn unsre instrumente schon verstummt Geht ein hauch durch den raum wie ein seufzen im traum Da ist noch einmal seine stimme nah
Der uns entflammt, Augen wie samt, die liebe schenken Gigi Gigi? Bist du das dort im dunkeln? War wohl nichts da drüben he? Na und! Was verstehen die Amerikaner schon ausser Rock und Twist Ma Gigi, Wolltest du vielleicht Gigi l'Americano Invece no, Du bist Giuseppe, Fabrizio, Luca Santini du bist Neapolitaner Hörst du? Horst du sie Gigi? Geh nicht mehr fort Es ist dein publikum Canta Sing Gigi sing, sing für sie, sing für mich Bravo, canta Gigi bravo canta canta Carmella, Carmella Carmella lo sai che é arrivato Gigi Cesarina, Cesarina scendi è arrivato Gigi da Hollywood ! Ma se te lo dico io che é arrivato scendi no Guaglione, guaglione guaglione corri va a dire a zio Gennaro Che é arrivato lo zio Gigi dall'America
der uns entflammt, augen wie Samt die Liebe schenken Gigi l'amoroso der alle rührt Der uns verführt, an die sünde zu denken Ein grosses fest fing an wenn er begann Zaza, Luna Caprese, O sole mio Arriva Gigi l'amoroso...
Lucia ((French version: Lucie (Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Davinci - Danieli Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quando Lucia per gioco Mi bacia ovunque sta Il viso mi va a fuoco Non so più cosa far Lei dice: "Ma che sciocco!" Perché capir non può Che razza di tempesta C'è dentro la mia testa Quando Lucia mi sfiora È la felicità E ciò è più buffo ancora Di quando sol mi fa Non vedo più nessuno Non v'è che lei e me Se lei con tenerezza Il viso mi accarezza Quando Lucia m'ignora Non so più dove andare Lei per gico ancora La gran signora fa Poi non resiste e ride Da non finire più E io mi contegno Fingendo un grande sdegno Quando Lucia mi lascia La vita se ne va E come un colpo d'ascia Che il cuor spezzarmi sa La sera con gli amici Non so scherzare più Perciò affettuiosamente Mi trattan da demente Forse lo ruberò, non sanno Cue questo sogno d'or Ha solo diciott'anni Che un'anima ella è ancor Un'acqua di sorgiva Che mi rinnoda ognor Sì quando Lucia arriva Con lei vien qui l'amor
