T'en Fais Pas (C'est Le B-a Ba)
Composer(s): P. Breslin - J. Top - S. Perathoner
Performer(s): Nicoletta



Au bord de la route, au bout de ma peine
Résewoir vide mais la lune est pleine
C'est la série noire, le pied au plancher
La nuit va-t-elle porter conseil?

Que des massifs à perte de vue
Ça commence à sentir le quartier de la glu
Pas si facile, le B-a Ba blesse
Attention au changement de vitesse

T'en fais pas 
Ça, c'est le B-a Ba
T'en fais pas 
Il y a des hauts et des bas

Parfois c'est là
Et puis ça s'en va
C'est le B-a Ba
Mais ça reviendra

Tu lances les dés, tu joues à pile ou face
Tu bois la tasse mais, quoique tu fasses
T'en fais pas, t'en fais pas

J'ai vu des soirées à quatre étoiles
On parle pognon et on lit Stendahl
Comme l'a dit Shakespeare, le monde est une scène
Et on est jamais mieux servi que par soi-même

T'en fais pas 
Ca, c'est le B-a Ba
T'en fais pas 
Il y a des hauts et des bas

Parfois c'est là
Et puis ça s'en va
C'est le B-a Ba
Mais ça reviendra

Tu lances les dés, tu joues à pile ou face
Tu bois la tasse mais, quoique tu fasses
T'en fais pas, t'en fais pas...

My Margarita (El Charro)
Composer(s): Maria Grever; Walter Hirsh



My Margarita, I'm so romantic, but Margarita
You drive me frantic
My Margarita
You could be tender, but Senorita
You won't surrender
On my guitar oh so lightly
I play nightly when the moon begins to shine
Though ev'ry star up above you knows I love you
I can never make you mine
Oh Margarita
When stars are fading, beneath your window
I'm serenading
My Margarita life could be sweeter
If I could read in your glances where romance is
When it dances
But whenever we're together
You're as fickle as the weather when you kiss and run away

Graine D'Ananar
Composer(s): Léo Ferré
Performer(s): Léo Ferré; Catherine Sauvage



La vie m'a doublé
C'est pas régulier
Pour un pauv' lézard
Qui vit par hasard
Dans la société
Mais la société
Faut pas s'en mêler
J'suis un type à part
Un' grain' d'ananar

On m'dit qu'j'ai poussé
En d'ssous d'un gibet
Où mon grand-papa
Balançait déjà
Avec un collier
Un collier tressé
De chanvre il était
Un foutu foulard
A gueul' d'ananar

J'avais des copains
Qui mangeaient mon pain
Car le pain c'est fait
Pour êtr' partagé
Dans notr' société
C'est pas moi qui l'dis
Mais c'est Jésus-Christ
Un foutu bavard
A gueul' d'ananar

Si j'avais des sous
On m'd'manderait: ""Où
Les as-tu gagnés
Sans avoir trimé
Pour la société?"
Mais comm' j'en ai pas
Faut lui dir' pourquoi
C'est jamais peinard
La grain' d'ananar

On m'dit qu'c'est fini
J'vous l'dit comme on l'dit
Et qu'on me pendra
Au nom de la loi
Et d'la société
D'la bell' société
Qui s'met à s'mêler
De mettre au rancart
La grain' d'ananar

Potence d'oubli
L'oiseau fait son nid
Messieurs les corbeaux
Passeront ma peau
Comme à l'étamis
Mais auparavant
J'aurai comm' le vent
Semé quelque part
Ma grain' d'ananar

Ten Cents A Dance
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart - Richard Rodgers
First performance: Ruth Etting - 1930
Covered by multiple other artists



Ten cents a dance, that's what they pay me
Gosh, how they weigh me down
Ten cents a dance, pansies and rough guys
Tough guys who tear my gown

Seven to midnight I hear drums
Loudly the saxophone blows
Trumpets are tearing my eardrums
Customers crush my toes

Sometimes I think I've found my hero
But it's a queer romance
All that you need is a ticket
Come on, big boy, ten cents a dance! 

My Man Jumped Salty On Me 
Composer(s): Perry Bradford
Performer(s): Rosetta Crawford;
Mezz Mezzrow; George Wettling



Goin' down to the river, take a rope and a rock
Tie it round my neck and jump off the dock
'Cause my man he jumped salty on me

Ain't no one can change my mind
I've been mistreated and I don't mind dyin'
'Cause that man jumped salty on me

Gonna get me some poison, kill myself
'Cause the man I love has put me on the shelf
The dirty old viper jumped salty on me
If he didn't want me he didn't have to lie
The day I see him, that's the day he'll die
'Cause that man jumped salty on me

Baby you don't know my mind
Lord, Lord, Lord, Baby you don't know my mind
When you see me laughin', I'm laughin' just to keep from cryin'

A crooked man's worse than crooked dice
With dice you lose your money, with men you lose your life
Oh that fool jumped salty on me
I'm gonna get me a razor and a gun
Cut him if he stands still, shoot him if he runs
'Cause that man jumped salty on me

Graduation's Here
Composer(s): Gretchen Christopher;
Barbara Ellis; Gary Troxel
Performer(s): The Fleetwoods



Bah-oodo-doo-dahm, doo-dahm, doo-dahm
Doo doddy doddy dahm

Graduation, graduation, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, graduation

High school parties are over
Things won't be the same
The day to grow up finally came
Graduation's here
Graduation

Our trips to the ocean
Were so much fun
Remember the games we almost won
Graduation's here

Chorus
Our senior year and our one big sin
Was the "senior skip" when we were all turned in
The gaudy mischief had to come but now it's gotta go
'cause graduation's here and we'll soon be on our own

Bah-oodo-doo-dahm, doo-dahm, doo-dahm
Doo doddy doddy dahm
Graduation, graduation, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, graduation

Now we are walking down the aisle
I cry inside but I'm trying to smile
Goodbye friends, alma mater too
Graduation's here

Graduation, graduation, graduation, graduation

Tempus Fugit
Composer(s): Geoffrey Downes - Trevor Horn - Steve Howe - Chris Squire - Alan White
Performer(s): Yes



Born in the night
She would run like a leopard
That freaks at the sight
Of a mind close beside herself
And the nearer I came
How the country would change
She was using the landscape
To hide herself

More in the mind
Than the body this feeling
A sense at the end
Of a circular line
That is drawn at an angle
I see when I'm with you
To navigate waters and finally answer to-yes

If you were there you would want to be near me
Innocence, you could hold the materials
And though nothing would really be living
It would shock Your fall into landing light
In the north sky time flies fast to the morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to-yes

(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) From the moment you tell me - yes

If you could see all the roads I have traveled
Towards some unusable last equilibrium
Run like an athlete and die like a dead beaten speed-freak
An answer to all of your answers to-yes

In the north sky time flies faster than morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to Yes

(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) If we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Will the silence be broken
(Yes, Yes) Should we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Do we leave it unspoken

(Yes Yes Yes Yes...)

Performer(s): Lynsey de Paul



My man and me 
we're close as anyone could ever be 
for two 
ooh and when I see his face 
the worries of the day just disappear

Performer(s): The Four Freshmen;

It's a time a for joy, a time for tears
A time we'll treasure through the years
We'll remember always
Graduation day

At the senior prom we danced 'til three
And there you gave your heart to me
We'll remember always
Graduation day

Though we leave in sorrow
All the joys we've known
We can face tomorrow
Knowing we'll never walk alone

When the ivy walls are far behind
No matter where our paths may wind
We'll remember always
Graduation day

Though we leave in sorrow
All the joys we've known
We can face tomorrow
Knowing we'll never walk alone

When the ivy walls are far behind
No matter where our paths may wind
We'll remember always, always
Graduation day

We'll remember always
Graduation day

Tempted
Composer(s): Chris Difford - Glenn Tilbrook
First release by: Squeeze - 1981 
Covered by multiple other artists



I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
I said to my reflection, Let's get out of this place
Passed the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
Billboards and the buildings
Memories of it still keep calling
And calling
But forget it all I know I will
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

What's been going on
Now that you have gone
There's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

I'm at the carpark, the airport, the baggage carousel
The people keep on grabbing, ain't wishing I was well
I said, "It's no occasion 
It's no story I can tell"
At my bedside, empty pocket, a foot without a sock
Your body gets much closer
I fumble for the clock, alarmed by
The seduction
I wish that it would stop
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

What's been going on
Now that you have gone there's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

I bought a novell, some perfume, a fortune all for you
But it's not my conscience that hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do?
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

What's been going on
Now that you have gone there's no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered

My Man
((Adapted from: Mon Homme (Mistinguett) - 1916))
Composer(s): Albert Willemetz - Jacques Charles - Maurice Yvain - Channing Pollack
Performer(s): Fanny Brice - 1921
and multiple other artists



It's cost me a lot
But there's one thing that I've got
It's my man
Cold and wet, tired you bet
But all that I soon forget
With my man
He's not much for looks
And no hero out of books
Is my man
Two or three girls has he
That he likes as well as me
But I love him
I don't know why I should
He isn't good
He isn't true
He beats me, too
What can I do
Oh, my man, I love him so
He'll never know
All my life is just despair
But I don't care
When he takes me in his arms
The world is bright, all right
What's the difference if I say
I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees some day
For whatever my man is
I am his forever more
Sometimes I say
If I just could get away
With my man
He'd go straight, sure as fate
For it never is too late
For a man
I just like to dream
Of a cottage by a stream
With my man
Where a few flowers grew
And perhaps a kid or two
Who liked my man
And then my eyes get wet
I 'most forget
Till he gets hot
And tells me not
To talk such rot
Oh my man, I love him so
He'll never know
All my life is just despair
But I don't care
When he takes me in his arms
The world is bright, all right
What's the difference if I say
I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees some day
For whatever my man is
I'm his forever more

Gradated Grey
Composer(s): Peter Barakan; Haruomi Hosono
Performer(s): Yellow Magic Orchestra;
Haruomi Hosono



My car radio's playing a song
That makes me feel very strange
It's taken so long
Through the gradation of the grey scale
A landscape like I've never seen
As far as my eyes can see
Out on the road
I've seen so many shades, shades of grey
Now I'm back in the tunnel again
Every minute, every second
I can feel it getting closer
Speeding ahead
To where grey meets white

Temptation Eyes
Composer(s): Harvey Price - Dan Walsh
First release by: The Grass Roots - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



She's got something that moves my soul
And she knows I'd love to love her
But she lets me down every time, can't make her mind
She's no one's lover
Tonight with me she'll be so inviting
I want her all for myself, aw

Temptation eyes, looking through my mind, my soul
Temptation eyes, you've got to love me, got to love me tonight
Got to love me baby yeah, mm

Oh wild-eyed innocence is just a game
But just the same my head is spinning
She's got a way to keep me on her side, it's just a ride
It's never ending
Tonight with me she'll be so exciting
I want her all for myself, oh

Temptation eyes, looking through my mind, my soul
Temptation eyes, you've got to love me, got to love me tonight
Can you feel it now

Tonight with me she'll be so exciting, I want her all for myself, oh
Temptation eyes, looking through my mind, my soul
Temptation eyes, you've got to love me, got to love me tonight
Temptation eyes, looking through my mind, my soul
Temptation eyes, come on and love me, love me tonight

My Mammy
Composer(s): Walter Donaldson; Sam M. Lewis; Joe Young
Performer(s): Al Jolson
and various other artists



Everything is lovely 
When you start to roam
The birds are singin', the day that you stray
But later, when you are further away
Things won't seem so lovely 
When you're all alone
Here's what you'll keep saying 
When you're far from home

Mammy
Mammy 
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where the sun shines best
Mammy
My little mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy
I'm comin'
Sorry that I made you wait
I'm comin'
Hope and trust that I'm not late, oh oh oh 
Mammy
My little Mammy
I'd walk a million miles 
For one of your smiles
My Mammy! 
Oh oh oh... 

Mammy... 
My little Mammy
The sun shines east, the sun shines west
I know where
the sun shines best! 
It's on my Mammy I'm talkin' about, nobody else's! 

My little Mammy
My heartstrings are tangled around Alabammy

Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'
I'm so sorry that I made you wait! 
Mammy, Mammy, I'm comin'! 
Oh God, I hope I'm not late! 
Look at me, Mammy! 
Don't you know me? 
I'm your little baby! 

I'd walk a million miles 
For one of your smiles
My Mammy!

Gracias A La Vida

Gracias a la Vida que me ha dado tanto
me dio dos luceros que cuando los abro
perfecto distingo lo negro del blanco
y en el alto cielo su fondo estrellado
y en las multitudes el hombre que yo amo

Gracias a la Vida que me ha dado tanto
me ha dado el sonido y el abedecedario
con él las palabras que pienso y declaro
madre amigo hermano y luz alumbrando
la ruta del alma del que estoy amando

Gracias a la Vida que me ha dado tanto
me ha dado la marcha de mis pies cansados
con ellos anduve ciudades y charcos
playas y desiertos montañas y llanos
y la casa tuya, tu calle y tu patio

Gracias a la Vida que me ha dado tanto
me dio el corazón que agita su marco
cuando miro el fruto del cerebro humano
cuando miro al bueno tan lejos del malo
cuando miro al fondo de tus ojos claros

Gracias a la Vida que me ha dado tanto
me ha dado la risa y me ha dado el llanto
así yo distingo dicha de quebranto
los dos materiales que forman mi canto
y el canto de ustedes que es el mismo canto
y el canto de todos que es mi propio canto

Gracias a la Vida
Gracias a la Vida
Gracias a la Vida
Gracias a la Vida

Temporarily 
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer - Gene De Paul
Performer(s): June Allyson & Jack Lemon



This is your shack
Temporarily
Your cul-de-sac 
Temporarily
So hit the sack 
Temporarily 
While I unpack 
Temporarily 
You can't be too darn particular 
I'm your vehicular extracurricular spouse 
And even though, you don't wanna play looks 
Like we're gonna play house 
That's realistic and sensible 
But I am so indefensible
Faced with so much masculinity 
I fear for my femininity 
So let's just skip the pyjama bit 
Papa and Mama bit
Hoping that neither snores 
While I am involuntarily, necessarily 
Temporarily yours

My Lover's Prayer
Composer(s): Otis Redding
Originally performed by: Otis Redding
Covered by various other artists



This is my lover's prayer
I hope it'll reach out to you, my love
This is my lover's prayer
And I hope you can understand it, my love

My life is such a weary thing
But it might be old pressure bringing rain (?)
You keep wanting, waiting and wishing
When I know deep down that I'm not to blame

What you gonna do tonight
When you need some loving arms to hold you tight
What you gonna do tonight
When you need my heavy voice to tell you good night

Honey but you can't let that be no problem
You ve got to come home and help me solve it
(Yeah) I won't be missing you
And honey, my lover's prayer would be all over

What can the matter be [now]?
It can't be to serious we can't talk it over
Living in this misery, darling
You can't make my life all over

Honey but don't you let that be no problem
Just come on home and help me solve it
(Dear) I won't be missing you
And my lover's prayer would be all over
It got to be all over
Honey all over
Don't keep my life going round so many circles

I won't be missing you
I won't be missing you
And my lover's prayer won't be all over

This is my lover's prayer
Come on y'all
This is my lover's prayer
And I hope it reaches out to you
This is my lover's prayer
I hope it gets to you

Tu has llegado hasta mi
A aliviar mi dolor con alegria
Si no estuvieras aqui
En un sueño de amor te inventaria

Yo nunca pude creer que
Existiera este amor
Que vinieras a mi

Gracias por tus caricias
Gracias porque eres mia
Gracias por estos dias
Gracias por este amor

Dios no ha podido crear
Un motivo mejor para mi vida
Yo te podria decir que
Estoy loco por ti mas cada dia

Tu eres mi amanecer
La mañana y el sol
Que yo siempre busque

Gracias por tus momentos
Gracias porque eres mia
Gracias por estos dias
Gracias por ser mi mundo

Tempo E Artista
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque



Imagino o artista num anfiteatro
Onde o tempo é a grande estrela
Vejo o tempo obrar a sua arte
Tendo o mesmo artista como tela

Modelando o artista ao seu feitio
O tempo, com seu lápis impreciso
Põe-lhe rugas ao redor da boca
Como contrapesos de um sorriso

Já vestindo a pele do artista
O tempo arrebata-lhe a garganta
O velho cantor subindo ao palco
Apenas abre a voz, e o tempo canta

Dança o tempo sem cessar, montando
O dorso do exausto bailarino
Trêmulo, o ator recita um drama
Que ainda está por ser escrito

No anfiteatro, sob o céu de estrelas
Um concerto eu imagino
Onde, num relance, o tempo alcance a glória
E o artista, o infinito

My Lovely Rose Of Clare
Traditional (Ireland)



Oh my lovely rose of Clare
You're the sweetest girl I know
You're the Queen of all the roses 
Like the pretty flowers that grow
You are the sunshine of my life 
So beautiful and fair
And I will always love you
My lovely Rose of Clare

Oh the sun it shines out like a jewel
On the lovely hills of Clare
As I strolled along with my sweet lass
One evening at the fair
Her eyes they shone like silver streams
Her long and golden hair
For I have won the heart of one
My lovely Rose of Clare

As we walked down by the river bank
Watched the Shannon flowing by
And listened to the nightingale
Singing songs for you and I
And to say farewell 
To all you true and fair
For I have stolen the heart of one
My lovely Rose of Clare
