Chevrolet Composer(s): Billy Gibbons Performer(s): ZZ Top
In a flat Forty-One with my strat on the door we was goin' to the country for what we came for I'm sure you've smelled the trees in the air The best of motor cruisin's just the joy to get there
I was approachin' Simonton down by the cotton gin There was old man Berkman trying to flag me in He asked if I would stay awhile and if I needed gas I said, "No thanks, anyhow I don't drive too fast"
Hallelujah, hallelujah ride my Chevrolet Hallelujah, hallelujah ride my Chevrolet
I took the road down to Cinco through that red Brazos River land done hit that freeway at sunset Now the big city lights are at hand
Hallelujah, hallelujah ride my Chevrolet Hallelujah, hallelujah ride my Chevrolet

Yeah
I was working part time in a five-and-dime My boss was Mr. McGee He told me several times that he didn't like my kind 'Cause I was a bit 2 leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 nothing But different than the day before That's when I saw her, Ooh, I saw her She walked in through the out door, out door
She wore a Raspberry beret The kind U find in a second hand store Raspberry beret And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more Raspberry beret I think I love her
Built like she was She had the nerve 2 ask me If I planned 2 do her any harm
So, look here I put her on the back of my bike And-a we went riding Down by old man Johnson's farm
I said now, overcast days never turned me on But something about the clouds and her mixed
She wasn't 2 bright But I could tell when she kissed me She knew how 2 get her kicks
She wore a Raspberry beret The kind U find in a second hand store Raspberry beret And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more Raspberry beret I think I love her
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof And the horses wonder who U are Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees U feel like a movie star
Listen They say the first time ain't the greatest But I tell ya If I had the chance 2 do it all again
I wouldn't change a stroke 'Cause baby I'm the most With a girl as fine as she was then
(Raspberry beret) The kind U find (The kind U find) The kind U find (In a second hand store) Oh no no (Raspberry beret) (And if it was warm) Where have all the raspberry women gone? (She wouldn't wear much more) Yeah (Raspberry beret)
I think I... I think I... I think I love her
(Raspberry beret) No No No No No No (The kind U find) (In a second hand store) (Raspberry beret) Tell me Where have all the raspberry women gone? (And if it was warm she) (Wouldn't wear much more) (Raspberry beret) I think I love...

Pauvre garçon qui pense au pays Chèvrefeuille que tu es loin Pauvre garçon que l'amour oublie Un peu plus à chaque matin
Veux-tu ma belle tailler pour moi Chèvrefeuille que tu es loin Une chemise dans les draps Où naguère nous dormions si bien
Veux-tu me trouver un arpent de terre Chèvrefeuille que tu es loin Tout près de l'église au bord de la mer Pour chanter mon dernier refrain
Maintenant je sais que c'est la fin du soleil Chèvrefeuille que tu es loin Et je voudrais que ce soit toi ma belle Qui m'enterre de tes propres mains
Pauvre garçon qui pense au pays Chèvrefeuille que tu es loin Pauvre garçon que l'amour oublie Un peu plus à chaque matin
Rapture Composer(s): Chris Stein; Debbie Harry Performer(s): Blondie
Toe to toe Dancing very slow Barely breathing Almost comatose
Wall to wall People hypnotized And they're stepping Lightly Hang each night in Rapture
Back to back Sacrailiac Spinless movement And a wild attack
Face to face Sadly solitude And it's finger Popping Twenty-four hour shopping In Rapture
Fab Five Freddy Told me everything's fine DJ's spinnin' I said in my mind Flash is flash, flash is cool Francois se pas Flashe' no do And ya don't stop Sure shot Go out to the parking lot And ya get in your car And ya drive real far And ya drive all night And then ya see a light And it comes right down And lands on the ground And out comes a man from Mars And ya try to run But he's got a gun And he shoots ya dead And he eats your head And then you're in the man from Mars You go out at night, eatin' cars You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too Mercurys and Subarus And ya don't stop You keep on eatin' cars Then, when there's no more cars You go out at night and eat up bars Where the people meet Face to face Dance cheek to cheek One to one Man to man Dance toe to toe Don't move too slow 'Cause the man from Mars Is through with cars He's eatin' bars Yeah, wall to wall Door to door Hall to hall He's gonna eat 'em all Rapture
Be pure Take a tour Through the sewer Don't strain your brain Paint a train You'll be singin' in the rain I said don't stop Do punk rock
Well now you see What ya wanna be Just have your party on TV 'Cause the man from Mars Won't eat up bars Where the TV's on And now he's gone back up to space Where he won't have a hassle with the human race And ya hip-hop And ya don't stop Just blast off Sure shot 'Cause the man from Mars Stopped eatin' cars And eatin' bars And now he only eats guitars Get up!
Taken By A Stranger Composer(s): Gus Seyffert - Nicole Morier - Monica Birkenes First performance by: Lena - 2011
She's got a knuckle in her eye He knows her cat call Can't escape from telling lies I heard her saying Hey mind if I take this chair Hey mind if I take this chair He drops a pause She looks annoyed But she's so mean he thinks she has to be the one Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger Trip me up and spin me round again You got some coffee on your collar And you forgot to comb your hair But I can't wait till I do better You're here and I don't care I can't help it if you like it Cause I won't be here tomorrow No one ever told you that you wouldn't be rejected Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger (Danger is a risky business) Trip me up and spin me round again Dip dip dada dada da Dip dip dada dada da Uh uh uh uh Nah nah nah nah nah Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger (Danger is a risky business) Trip me up and spin me round again
Cheveux Longs Et Idées Courtes
Composer(s): Johnny Hallyday - Giles Thibaut
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday; Eddie Vartan et Son Orch.
Si monsieur Kennedy Aujourd'hui revenait Ou si monsieur Gandhy Soudain ressuscitait Ils seraient étonnés Quand on leur apprendrait Que pour changer le monde Il suffit de changer
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Et surtout, avant tout D'avoir les cheveux longs
Crier dans un micro Je veux la liberté Assis sur son derrière Avec les bras croisés Nos pères et nos grands-pères N'y avaient pas pensé Sinon combien de larmes Et de sang évités
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Mais bien sûr leurs cheveux N'étaient pas assez longs
Écrire sur son blouson La guerre doit s'arrêter Assis sur son derrière Avec les bras croisés Les bonzes du Vietnam N'y ont jamais pensé Tout ce qu'ils ont trouvé C'est partir en fumée
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Mais bien sûr leurs cheveux Ne sont pas assez longs
Crier c'est une honte Des hommes meurent de faim Assis sur son derrière Avec les bras croisés Est-ce la solution Est-ce le bon moyen En tout cas les hindous Devront s'en contenter
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Avant de trouver mieux Leurs cheveux seront longs
Si les mots suffisaient Pour tout réaliser Tout en restant assis Avec les bras croisés Je sais que dans une cage Je serai enfermé Mais c'est une autre histoire Que de m'y faire entrer
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Car il ne suffit pas D'avoir les cheveux longs
Fait-on pousser du blé En faisant des discours Faut-il un uniforme Pour détester la guerre Faut-il pour être un homme Ne plus chanter l'amour Faut-il mendier sont pain Et ne plus être fier
Da-da-da-da-dam Da-da-da-da-dam Faut-il pour être libre Avoir les cheveux longs, longs, longs
Rapte-me, camaleoa, adapte-me a uma cama boa Capte-me uma mensagem à toa De um quasar pulsando loa Interestelar canoa Leitos perfeitos, seus peitos direitos me olham assim Fino menino me inclino pro lado do sim Rapte-me, adapte-me, capte-me, it's up to me, coração Sem querer ser merecer ser um camaleão Rapte-me, camaleoa, adapte-me ao seu ne me quitte pas
Cheveux D'or Et Cheval Blanc

Des cheveux d'or dans le vent Un cheval au grand galop Et la fille qui riait Cheveux d'or et cheval blanc Qui m'a mis l'cur au galop Quand la fille m'a crié Ricard Ricard

Cheveux d'or entre mes mains Et le cur au grand galop Tous les deux on s'est aimé Et lorsque je m'en souviens J'en ai l' cur au galop J'en ai l' cur à l'été Ricard Ricard
Rapid Roy (The Stock Car Boy) Composer(s): Jim Croce Performer(s): Jim Croce; Mark Collie; Hit Crew
Chorus: Oh Rapid Roy that stock car boy He too much too believe You know he always got an extra pack of cigarettes Rolled up in his T-shirt sleeve He got a tattoo on his arm that say Baby He got another on that just say Hey But every Sunday afternoon he is a dirt track demon In a '57 Chevrolet
Oh Rapid Roy that stock car boy He's the best driver in the land He say that he learned to race a stock car By runnin' 'shine outa Alabam' Oh the Demolition Derby And the Figure Eight Is easy money in the bank Compared to runnin' from the man In Oklahoma City With a 500 gallon tank
(Repeat Chorus)
Yea Roy so cool That racin' fool he don't know what fear's about He do a hundred thirty mile an hour Smilin' at the camera With a toothpick in his mouth He got a girl back home Name of Dixie Dawn But he got honeys all along the way And you oughta hear 'em screamin' For that dirt track demon In a '57 Chevrolet
Madness Of Love Composer(s): Raffaele Gualazzi First performance by: Raffaele Gualazzi - 2011
Cant you see Through your eyes Theres a look that dont shine And all the world around you seems to slip and disappear
Thought that word from your heart Means Im yours, means youre smart I know for certain I won't bother you with nostalgia
But you'll find other men full of love and filled with damn and you'll smile here and there like the first of all your sighs there you'll cry with your friends like he was the first and last spreading life wasting life shouldn't be that way if you ain't got a tear to hide!
Here we live, with no tricks day by day night by night but someone hit me and I fell into your heart, my dear
And youll fly over lands Where your eyes cant find the end Upon mountains down lanes Being so far away from you just makes me feel so damned!
Show your man how to love, show him tears and skies above, show him worlds full of light and your dreams that you can't hide show him spells he can hear and your wonderful life, let it shine! let it shine! let it shine! let it shine!

Rap Tap On Wood Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Eleanor Powell; and various other artists
If you want to ring the bell not once, but twice If you want to roll and roll those lucky dice If you want to spend your journey's end with sweet music and love If you want to lick this world of men and Mickey Mice Take my advice...
When you sit down, one day Look over yourself and say "You're very good" Ra-ap tap on wood
When you have such success You're concious that you impress The neighbourhood Ra-ap tap on wood
When ev'ry meal you take Is made of milk and honey When ev'ry stock you take Is making mints of money When ev'ry heart you break Is such a cinch, it's funny Careful, Sonny Rap-tap, rap-tap, rap-tap-tap, rap-a-tap-tap
You're knockout, you're good news And you'll never, never lose If you just put on your dancing shoes And rap-tap on wood

Chest Fever
Composer(s): Robbie Robertson
First release by: The Band - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
I know she's a tracker, any scarlet would back her They say she's a chooser, but I just can't refuse her She was just there, but then she can't be here no more And as my mind unweaves, I feel the freeze down in my knees But just before she leaves, she receives
She's been down in the dunes and she's dealt with the goons Now she drinks from the bitter cup, I'm trying to get her to give it up She was just here, I fear she can't be here no more And as my mind unweaves, I feel the freeze down in my knees But just before she leaves, she receives
It's long, long when she's gone, I get weary holding on Now I'm coldly fading fast, I don't think I'm gonna last Very much longer
"She's stoned" said the Swede, and the moon calf agreed I'm like a viper in shock with my eyes in the clock She was just there somewhere and here I am again And as my mind unweaves, I feel the freeze down in my knees But just before she leaves, she receives
