    Ei väli pöytien lie pitkäkään
    vaan pöydän viereisen mä tuskin nään
    Sun kanssas’ jakaa sen nyt toinen voi
    Mä yksin kuuntelen, kun kaukaa soi

    Kun hänet tanssimaan sä pyydät noin
    niin hetkeen seuraavaan mä nähdä voin
    Sun sanas’ uskoo hän ja unelmoi
    Mä tiedän enemmän, nyt teille soi

    Sä olit elänyt jo mua ennenkin
    Etkä tiennyt kuinka pelkäsin
    sä että vertaisit mua muihin
    Mutta näin, mä syliin toisen sua työnsin sylistäin

    Niin selvin sanoin sain mä kuulla sen
    nyt että oisin vain - se entinen
    Mä sua ymmärrän - en mitään voi
    Nään teidän lähtevän, ja vielä soi

    On tyhjää pimeää, vain jossain soi

    Chuck E.'s In Love Composer(s): Rickie Lee Jones Performer(s): Rickie Lee Jones; Kymaera



    How come he don't come and PLP with me
    Down at the meter no more?
    And how come he turn off the T.V.
    And he hang that sign on the door?
    Well we call and we call
    How come, we say
    Hell, what could make a boy behave this away
    Yeah, well he learned all of the lines now

    And everytime he don't a s-stutter when he talks
    And it's true, it's true
    He sure has acquired this kinda cool
    And inspired sort of jazz when he walks
    Where's his jacket and his old blue jeans?
    Hey, if this ain't healthy it is some kinda clean
    Fact is that

    Chuck E.'s in love
    Yeah, yeah
    Chuck E.'s in love
    No, no, no
    Chuck E.'s in love
    Ah, ah
    That Chuck E.'s in

    Well, I don't believe what you're saying to me
    This is something, I've got to see
    Is he here?
    I look for him in the pool hall
    Well is he here?
    I look in the drug store
    Well is he here?
    No, he don't come here no more

    Well I tell you what I saw him
    He was sitting behind us down at the Pantages
    And whatever it is that he's got up his sleeve
    Well, I hope it isn't contagious
    What's her name?
    Is that her there?
    Oh Christ, I think he's even combed his hair
    And is that her
    Well then what's her name?
    Oh, it's never gonna be the same
    That's not her
    I know what's wrong
    Cause Chuck E.'s in love
    With the little girl singing this song
    And don't you know

    Chuck E.'s in love
    Yeah, yeah
    Chuck E.'s in love
    No, no, no
    Chuck E.'s in love
    Ah, ah
    Chuck E.'s in
    Chuck E.'s in love

    He's in love
    No, ho, no

    Reflections
    Composer(s): Brian Holland;
    Lamont Dozier; Edward Holland Jr.
    Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes



    Through the mirror of my mind
    Time after time
    I see reflections of you and me

    Reflections of
    The way life used to be
    Reflections of
    The love you took from me

    Oh, I'm all alone now
    No love to shield me
    Trapped in a world
    That's a distorted reality

    Happiness you took from me
    And left me alone
    With only memories

    Through the mirror of my mind
    Through these tears that I'm crying
    Reflects a hurt I can't control
    'Cause although you're gone
    I keep holding on
    To the happy times
    Oh, when you were mine

    As I peer through the window
    Of lost time
    Looking over my yesterdays
    And all the love I gave all in vain
    (All the love) All the love
    That I've wasted
    (All the tears) All the tears
    That I've tasted
    All in vain

    Through the hollow of my tears
    I see a dream that's lost
    From the hurt
    That you have caused

    Everywhere I turn
    Seems like everything I see
    Reflects the love that used to be

    In you I put
    All my faith and trust
    Right before my eyes
    My world has turned to dust

    After all the nights
    I sat alone and wept
    Just a handful of promises
    Are all that's left of loving you

    Reflections of
    The way life used to be
    Reflections of
    The love you took from me

    In you I put
    All my faith and trust
    Right before my eyes
    My world has turned to dust...

    The Music Of The Night
    Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber - Richard Stilgoe - Charles Hart
    First performance by: Michael Crawford - 1986
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
    Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
    Silently the senses abandon their defences

    Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
    Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
    Turn your face away from the garish light of day
    Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light
    And listen to the music of the night

    Close you eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
    Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
    Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
    And you'll live as you've never lived before

    Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
    Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
    Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
    In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
    The darkness of the music of the night

    Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
    Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
    Let your soul take you where you long to go
    Only then can you belong to me

    Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
    Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
    Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
    To the harmony which dreams alone can write
    The power of the music of the night

    You alone can make my song take flight
    Help me make the music of the night

    Chronique Pour L'an 2000
    Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



    Peuple de l'an 2000
    Je viens, braves gens
    De la nuit des temps
    Parler d'un passé
    Peut-être oublié
    Mais très excitant
    Les hommes sur la Terre
    S'aimaient comme des frères
    Et leur seul but sacré
    S'appelait tiercé
    Qu'ils répudiaient parfois
    Pour un beau porte-clés

    C'est au milieu
    De cette joie tranquille
    Que se déclencha
    La grande bataille
    Qu'on appela terrible
    Et qui opposa
    Deux de nos idoles
    Nommées dans le vent
    Qui pour une mèche de cheveux
    Aux poudres mirent le feu
    Partageant la planète
    En deux clans très curieux

    Beatniks et antis
    Tels étaient leurs slogans
    Guitares et ciseaux
    Leurs seules armes
    Du moment
    Moi qui n'était que bon enfant
    Je fus nommé sur le champ
    Arbitre pour ce match sanglant

    Rejetant mes conseils
    Maintes fois prodigués
    La lutte a continué
    Ils préféraient se battre
    Refusant de penser
    Que venant les années
    À quarante ans leurs crânes
    Seraient désertés
    Mais ils me rétorquaient
    "Toi reste dans ton coin
    Et laisse-nous profiter
    De cette publicité"

    Beatniks et antis
    Tels étaient leurs slogans
    Guitares et ciseaux
    Leurs seules armes
    Du moment
    Les Casques Bleus furent débordés
    Les lois de la guerre renversées
    Oui, le Monde fut bouleversé

    La morale de cette chronique
    Est simple à constater
    Les cheveux sont ingrats
    À quoi bon les chanter?
    Braves gens de l'An 2000
    Je ne vous souhaite pas
    Cette guerre civile
    Terrible qui un jour nous arriva!

    Look upstanding with your head held high
    You will be reflected
    You look outstanding with your eyes in disguise
    Just beyond your mask-qes

    Holy, Hollywood (he), it's divine
    I'm surely glad, I'm surely all the time
    And even though I'm, you will always hear

    Very rarely worry upmost constantly
    Could you be receptive
    Our life's outstanding in a shower please
    Wet my skids a plenty

    Baby, what a day all over town
    I'm surely glad, I'm surely all around
    And even since I knew, it's all so clear

    You will be reflected
    You will be reflected
    You will be reflected
    You will be reflected, reflected

    Yeah...

    Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho

    I push the middle valve down
    The music goes down around below

    You always were the special one
    The breath of air, the heap of fun
    You always had a kind of light
    That might dismay or might delight

    I thought about you all along
    I used to doubt you
    Guess I was wrong

    Now you shine like chrome
    You’re a star and bold like chrome
    And from Tokyo to Rome
    We’re all aware of you
    Now you shine like chrome
    You’re so hard and cold like chrome
    And I’d like to take you home
    But I’m scared of you

    It’s nice to see you looking well
    I know your age, but I won’t tell
    You always had a kind of glow
    You’re luminous
    But I guess you know

    I see it clearly
    You’re gonna shine
    I never really thought you’d be mine

    Now you shine like chrome
    You’re a star and bold like chrome
    And from Tokyo to Rome
    We’re all aware of you
    Now you shine like chrome
    You’re so hard and cold like chrome
    And I’d like to take you home
    But I’m scared of you

    Composer(s): Louis Jordan; Julia Lee
    Performer(s): Louis Jordan;
    and various other artists



    I got a girl who beats 'em all
    She isn't too short and she isn't too tall
    She's in the groove and she's right on the ball
    'Cause she's reet, petite and gone

    Oh what a babe, she's the tops
    When we go out they don't need traffic cops
    'Cause one look at her and the traffic stops
    She is reet, petite and gone

    When the boys all gather 'round at night to have a ball
    Now that I've got this fine gal, I don't pay no mind at all

    No more nights at sloppy Joe's
    No more bettin' on the nose
    I'll give up all my fancy clothes
    'Cause she's reet, petite and gone

    This time I'm gonna do things right
    Never let my baby out of my sight
    We'll tie the knot and tie it tight
    'Cause she's reet, petite and gone

    Got some money in my jeans
    Feeling like a man of means
    But I'll give up all those other queens
    'Cause she's reet, petite and gone

    That chick has really changed my attitude
    Whenever I gaze on her pulchritude
    I'm telling you boys, she's so mighty fine
    She's got me all wrapped up like a ball of twine

    All the other girls, they leave me cold
    You can't compare brass to fourteen-carat gold
    When they made her, they broke the mold
    She is reet, petite and gone

    I got a girl who beats 'em all
    She isn't too short and she isn't too tall
    She's in the groove and she's right on the ball
    'Cause she's reet, petite and gone

    Did my heart beat
    The moment that I looked at you
    Did my heart beat
    And say that no-one else would do
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    Was my face red
    I hardly knew just what to say
    Was my face red
    I must have shown it every way
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    We talked awhile of this and that
    The night was so divine
    We walked awhile and then we sat
    Then suddenly your lips met mine

    Did I run home
    And tell it to the family
    Did I run home
    To tell them you belong to me
    Just one little stumble
    Did I take a tumble
    And did I fall in love

    Christopher Columbus Composer(s): Chuck Berry - Andy Razaf Performer(s): Andy Kirk



    Mister Christopher columbus
    Sailed the sea without a compass
    When his men began a rumpus
    Up spoke, Christopher Columbus

    There is land somewhere
    Until we get there
    We will not go wrong
    If we sing, "swing a song"

    Since the world is round
    We'll be safe and sound
    Til our goal is found
    We'll just keep rhythm bound

    Soon the crew was makin merry
    Then came a yell, "Let's drink to Isabelle
    Hum, bring the rum, Ho Hum"

    No more mutiny,
    What a time at sea
    With di-plo-ma-cy
    Christy made his-to-ry

    Mister Christopher Columbus
    He used rhythm as a compass
    Music ended all the rumpus
    Wise old Christopher Columbus

    Reelin' In The Years
    Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen
    Performer(s): Steely Dan;
    Eddie M.; Marvelous 3



    Your everlasting summer
    You can see it fading fast
    So you grab a piece of something
    That you think is gonna last
    You wouldn't know a diamond
    If you held it in your hand
    The things you think are precious
    I can't understand

    Chorus:
    Are you reelin' in the years
    Stowin' away the time
    Are you gatherin' up the tears
    Have you had enough of mine

    You been tellin' me you're a genius
    Since you were seventeen
    In all the time I've known you
    I still don't know what you mean
    The weekend at the college
    Didn't turn out like you planned
    The things that pass for knowledge
    I can't understand

    Chorus

    I spent a lot of money
    And I spent a lot of time
    The trip we made in Hollywood
    Is etched upon my mind
    After all the things we've done and seen
    You find another man
    The things you think are useless
    I can't understand

    Chorus

    The Munsters
    Composer(s): Jack Marshall
    First performance: 1964



    When you are walking down the street at night
    And behind you theres no one in view
    But you hear mysterious feet at night
    Then The Munsters are following you!

    If you should meet this strange family
    Just forget what some people have said
    The Munsters may shake your hand clammily
    But they're not necessarily dead

    Behind their house you musn't be afraid
    To see a figure digging with a spade!
    Perhaps someone didn't quite make the grade
    with The Munsters, with The Munsters

    If when you're sleeping you dream a lot
    Ghoulish nightmares parade through your head
    And then you wake up and scream a lot
    Oh, The Munsters are under your bed!

    At midnight if creatures should prowl about
    And if vampires and vultures swoop down
    And werewolves and feinds shreik and howl about
    Oh, The Munsters are out on the town!

    One night I dared peak through their window screen
    My hair turned white at such a crazy scene!
    Because every evening its Halloween
    At The Munsters', at The Munsters'!

    Reelin' And Rockin'
    French Version: Rock 'N' Road
    Composer(s): Chuck Berry
    Performer(s): Chuck Berry



    Reelin' And Rockin'

    Some-times I will, then again I think I won't
    Some-times I will, then again I think I won't
    Some- times I do, then again I think I don't

    Well, I looked at my watch it was nine twenty one
    'twas at a rock 'n' roll dance havin' nothin' but fun
    We were rollin' reelin' and a-rockin'
    We were reelin' and a-rockin' and rollin' till the break of dawn

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine thirty-two
    There's nothin' I'd rather do than dance with you
    We were rollin', reelin' and a-rockin'...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine forty-three
    And every time I'd spin, she'd spin with me
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin', ...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was nine fifty-four
    I said, "Dance ballerina girl, go, go, go!"
    We were rollin, reelin' and a-rockin' ...

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten o-five,
    Man, I didn't know whether I was dead or alive!
    But I was rollin', reelin' and a-rockin'....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-six
    But I'm a keep on dancin' till I got my kicks!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin'.....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-eight
    I gotta get my kicks before it gets too late!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin' ....

    Well, I looked at my watch, it was ten twenty-nine
    I had to hold her hand, she was still holdin' mine!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin'. ....

    Well, I looked at my watch, and to my surprise,
    I was dancin' with a woman who was twice my size!
    We were reelin', reelin' and a-rockin' .....

    Well, I looked at my watch, and it was time to go
    The band leader said, "We ain't playin' no mo'!"
    We were reelin', reelin', and a-rockin'....

    The Mummers' Dance

    and multiple other artists



    When in the springtime of the year
    When the trees are crowned with leaves
    When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
    Are dressed in ribbons fair

    When owls call the breathless moon
    In the blue veil of the night
    The shadows of the trees appear
    Amidst the lantern light

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    Who will go down to those shady groves
    And summon the shadows there
    And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
    In the springtime of the year

    The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
    That when the fiddler plays
    All their voices can be heard
    Long past their woodland days

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    And so they linked their hands and danced
    Round in circles and in rows
    And so the journey of the night descends
    When all the shades are gone

    A garland gay we bring you here
    And at your door we stand
    It is a sprout well budded out
    The work of Our Lord's hand

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay
