Trism Composer(s): Cindy Wilson - Fred Schneider - Kate Pierson - Keith Strickland - Rickey Wilson Performer(s): The B-52's
She has to leave She has to go The fastest way Is by trism Steps off the curb Stella Corona hopes for the best To be home by sunset Gotta be home by sunset
She asked me to give her a ride She said she had to go Dropped her off by the trism Through the atmosphere by prism
Go trism Go trism Go trism Go trism Go trism
Gotta keep, gotta keep movin' on Gotta keep movin' Gotta keep movin' Gotta keep movin' Gotta-gotta-keep on
It was a human race to get away And then back again Like the sun bends light through a prism She bends herself through the trism
In the smokey streets of the night She pulls the lever and then bright light

Easy Come, Easy Go Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Bill Anderson
If it's true what you say in your letter
If your sweet love for me is really gone
If there's somebody else that you love better
Pack your bag, shake my hand and move along
Easy come, easy go, I found that long time ago
Ain't no future in the past
Broken hearts and all that jazz
No tears of mine're gonna flow
I'll have another love tomorrow, easy come, easy go
So you took my photograph from your locket
And replaced it with the one you love the best
Give me back my ring and I'll go hock it
What's one little diamond more or less
Easy come, easy go, I found that long time ago
Ain't no future in the past
Broken hearts and all that jazz
No tears of mine're gonna flow
I'll have another love tomorrow, easy come, easy go
Easy come, easy go, I found that long time ago
Ain't no future in the past
Broken hearts and all that jazz
No tears of mine're gonna flow
I'll have another love tomorrow, easy come, easy go...
Többet Ér A Boldogságom ((Adapted from: Uno Tranquillo (Riccardo Del Turco) - 1967)) Composer(s): Lorenzo Pilat - Mario Panzeri - Daniele Pace - Kálmán Vándor Performer(s): Ambrus Kyri - 1969

Néhány fillér, néhány ékszer, néhány rongy nem boldogít Fényes kastély, versenyautó és a rang csak részegít Pár szál rózsa és a párom csókja jobban összefér El nem hagynám semmi pénzért, mert o százszor többet ér Többet ér Többet ér a boldogságom, mint ezernyi kincs Boldogabb pár, mint mi ketten égen-földön nincs Két szeme, ha rámnevet a szívem táncot jár Átöleljük egymást és én boldog vagyok már
Néha annyi pénzünk nincs, hogy szimpla kávét igyunk még Mégse baj, mert bárhol járunk, mifelettünk kék az ég És ha néha hébe-hóba mégis összezördülünk Másnap reggel könnyu szívvel elso szóra békülünk Békülünk Többet ér a boldogságom, mint ezernyi kincs...

Now it sounds funny
But I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl
You know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole
And I borrowed
Ooh, that's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
Why in the world
Would anyboddy put charms on eme?
I've paid my dues to make it
Everbody wants me to be
What they want me to be
I'm not happy when I try to fake it!
No!
Ooh,that's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
I wanna be high, so high
I wanna be free to know
The things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me, babe!
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
Because I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
Because I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
Trip Around The Sun Composer(s): Al Anderson - Stephen Bruton - Sharon Vaughn Performer(s): Al Anderson and multiple other artists
Here Im singin happy birthday Better think about the about the wish I make This year gone by aint been a piece of cake Everydays a revolution Pull it together and it comes undone Just one more candle and a trip around the sun
Im just hangin on while this old world keeps spinning And its good to know its out of my control If theres one thing that Ive learned from all this livin Is that it wouldnt change a thing if I let go
No you never see it comin Always wind up wonderin where it went Only time will tell if it was time well spent Its another revelation Celebrating what I should have done With these souvenirs of my trip around the sun
Im just hangin on while this old world keeps spinning And its good to know its out of my control If theres one thing that Ive learned from all this livin Is that it wouldnt change a thing if I let go
Im just hangin on while this old world keeps spinning And its good to know its out of my control If theres one thing that Ive learned from all this livin Is that it wouldnt change a thing if I let go
Yes Ill make a resolution That Ill never make another one Just enjoy this ride on my trip around the sun Just enjoy this ride... until it's done
I Promise You Composer(s): Harold Arlen; Johnny Mercer Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Betty Hutton and multiple other artists
Hate to be pedantic, or too darn romantic But gee, these goodbyes do things to my eyes So I hope that the same old phrase still applies....
I promise you a faithful heart One that has always been free At night there's a handful of stars That I pretend belong to me
I promise you that rich or poor I would be happy to share The arms you have taken possession of The sun on the meadow, afire in the shadow I promise you I'll be there
A faithful heart, a star or two And I'll be there, I promise you
I promise you
I would be happy to share The arms you have taken possession of The sun on the meadow, afire in the shadow I promise you I'll be there
A faithful heart, a star or two And I'll be there, I promise you
Eastern Rain Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
Performer(s): Fairport Convention; Richard Thompson
Rain comes from the east one night We watch it come To hang like beaded curtains till the morning sun Water dripping from our clothes You, with raindrops on your nose Ask me sadly, "Please don't go away, love" "Till the rain is done," I say, "I'll stay now"
Rain outside but inside we don't mind at all Shadows by the fire Slowly climb and fall Kisses fade and leave no trace Whispers vanish into space None will send me on a chase to nowhere What matters if I were the first to go there?
Morning comes up from the east We watch it come And far away now rolls the angry rain god's drum You, with daybreak in your eyes Afraid to speak for telling lies I watch you search for some reply to lend me But when the rain is done we'll stop pretending
I Promise To Remember Composer(s): Jimmy Smith; Jimmy Castor Performer(s): The Jimmy Castor Bunch and multiple other artists
I promise to love you no matter what you do I want you, I need you, I love you through and through I promise, promise to be true
I promise to remember the meaning of romance If I've done something wrong, give me one more chance I promise, promise to be true
My darling I have promised to give you my heart Oh darling promise me we will never part I know I'm not a king and I'm not very wise But one thing you must realize
I promise to remember the meaning of romance If I've done something wrong, give me one more chance I promise, promise to be true
My darling I have promised to give you my heart Oh darling promise me we will never part I know I'm not a king and I'm not very wise But one thing you must realize
I promise to remember the meaning of romance If I've done something wrong, give me one more chance I promise, promise to be true
Easter Theatre Composer(s): Andy Partridge
Performer(s): XTC
Gold sun rolls around
Chocolate nipple brown
Tumble from your arms
Like the ground your breasts swell
Land awake from sleep
Hares will kick and leap
Flowers climb erect
Smiling from the moist kiss of her rainbow mouth
Stage left
Enter easter and she's dressed in yellow yolk
Stage right
Now the son has died, the father can be born
Stand up
If we'd all breathe in and blow away the smoke
New life
We'd applaud a new life
Odin mounts the tree
Bleeds for you and me
Splashing on the lamb
Gamboling with spring's step
Buds will laugh and burst
Racing to be first
Turning all the soil
As the promptress fingers through her spinning script
Stage left
Enter easter and she's dressed in yellow yolk
Stage right
Now the son has died, the father can be born
Stand up
If we'd all breathe in and blow away the smoke
New life
We'd applaud a new life
Easter... in her bonnet
Easter... in her hair
Easter... are the ribbons
She tied everywhere
Trinke, Liebchen, trinke schnell Trinken macht die Augen hell Sind die schoenen Aüglein klar Siehst du alles licht und wahr Siehst, wie heisse Lieb' ein Traum Der uns aeffet sehr Siehst wie ew'ge Treue Schaum So was gibt's nicht mehr! Flieht auch manche Illusion Die dir einst dein Herz erfreut Gibt der Wein dir Tröstung schon Durch Vergessenheit! Glücklich ist, wer vergisst Was doch nicht zu ändern ist Kling, kling, sing, sing, sing Trink mit mir, sing mit mir Lalala, lalala...
I Pretend Composer(s): Barry Mason; Les Reed Performer(s): Des O'Connor
Sitting here so lonely in the firelight Listening for a footstep on the stairs All I have to talk to is the moonlight Shining on an empty chair
So I'll pretend, your loving arms are reaching out for me Yes I'll pretend, and though my eyes are closed I still can see As I pretend, the world is new and like it used to be One day our love must end Till then I'll just pretend
Something made her change, what could it be now Wish I knew exactly what I'd done If there's someone else I'll set you free now Guess I've lost and he has won
So I'll pretend, your loving arms are reaching out for me Yes I'll pretend, and though my eyes are closed I still can see As I pretend, the world is new and like it used to be One day our love must end Till then I'll just pretend One day our love must end Till then I'll just pretend
