I've had my share of life's ups and downs But fate's been kind, the downs have been few I guess you could say that I've been lucky Well, I guess you could say that it's all because of you

Noche calma sobre el rio sueño trabajo y querer ahi va el pescador curtido recogiendo el espinel Alla en el rancho la madre mece con tierna emoción una cunita de sauce entonando esta cancion Gurisito costero, duermase gurisito costero, duermase Si se duerme mi amor le dare chalañitas de ceibo collar de caracol collar de caracol El niño ya se ha dormido la luna salio a mirar hamacandose en las aguas por entre el camalotal La brisa juega y el canto parece que viene y va el eco oscuro se pierde por el rio Paraná Gurisito costero, duermase gurisito costero, duermase Duerma, duerma mi amor crecera junto al rio, mi cielo sera buen pescador sera buen pescador
Canción De Amor Para Francisca Composer(s): León Gieco Performer(s): León Gieco; Bersuit Vergarabat
En una casa del barrio San Pedro Francisca muestra todo su cuerpo pone el dinero entre sus senos toma un vino negro y algunas ginebras
Viste de verde, viste de rosa y se desviste muy silenciosa
Los lunes que no trabaja Francisca con una canastita con flores y su hijita van a correr por el monte los caminos y los campos ella dice que los besos los gorriones y las flores los lunes tienen mas perfume Larala, larala, larara, laralala
En una habitación del fondo de la casa los hombres pasan, los hombres pasan Nadie le ofrece algún trabajo porque tienen miedo de quedarse sin ella Piel de canela, ojos de pasto cabellos largos y aliento a trigal
Los lunes que no trabaja Francisca con una canastita con flores y su hijita van a correr por el monte los caminos y los campos ella dice que los besos los gorriones y las flores los lunes tienen mas perfume Larala, larala, larara, laralala

Canción De Amor Mientras Tanto
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez
En medio de toda la gente yo voy a volarme la frente después prenderé un cigarrillo tal vez baile contigo hoy voy a salir a la calle y voy a incendiar tus ciudades no se lo que han hecho conmigo el menos permanezco vivo
Y marie no puede zafarse quedo encerrada en una cárcel y Danny solo piensa en Cristo por el quemo a sus cuatro hijos Canción de amor entre vos y yo canción de amor mientras tanto
Un loco juega con fantasmas mi barrio puede estar en calma santiago cruz a adivino violo las leyes del destino y Luca se dio por muerto por asco y por aburrimiento en Baires, en Londres o en Rusia todo es una pelea sucia Canción de amor entre vos y yo mientras tanto
Feed The Birds Composer(s): Richard M. Sherman; Robert B. Sherman Performer(s): Julie Andrews; and various other artists
Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's The little old bird woman comes In her own special way to the people she calls "Come, buy my bags full of crumbs
Come feed the little birds, show them you care And you'll be glad if you do Their young ones are hungry Their nests are so bare All it takes is tuppence from you"
Feed the birds, tuppence a bag Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag "Feed the birds," that's what she cries While overhead, her birds fill the skies
All around the cathedral the saints and apostles Look down as she sells her wares Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling Each time someone shows that he cares
Though her words are simple and few Listen, listen, she's calling to you "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"
The Best Of Times Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung Performer(s): Styx
Tonight's the night we'll make history Honey you and I And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time And stay with you here toinght (with you tonight, with you tonight)
I know you feel these are the worst of times I do believe it's true When people lock their doors, and hide inside Rumour has it it's the end of Paradise
But I know, if the world if the world just passed us by, baby I know I wouldn't have to cry
The best of times, are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best forget the rest and some day we'll find These are the best of times These are the best of times
The headlines read "These Are The Worst Of Times" I do believe it's true I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide I wish the summer winds could bring back paradise
But I know, if the world turned upside down, baby I know You'd always be around
The best of times, are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best forget the rest and some day we'll find
(When I'm alone with you, you brighten up the night!)

Canción Consumo Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Desde Santurce A Bilbao Blues Band
Rezan las leyes básicas de una curiosa estética que el hombre es una máquina consumidora intrépida Compre electrodomésticos dicen los nuevos místicos es el gran signo de éxito del "homo sapientísimo"
Producto, consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción canción, canción... consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción
Queda un último término lo del salario mínimo con el Madrid-Atlético y el juego quinielístico La corrida benéfica hoy televisan íntegra es la moderna técnica de crear alienígenas
Producto, consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción canción, canción... consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción
Este mensaje estúpido tan saturado en tópicos hay que venderlo al público como un jabón biológico así dispone el código mafioso-discográfico y así se explota al prójimo prójimo y primo práctico
Producto, consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción canción, canción... consumo éste es el triste tema de esta canción
