    Ivory Tower
    Composer(s): Jack Fulton; Lois Steele
    Performer(s): Cathy Carr
    and multiple other artists



    Come down, come down from your ivory tower
    Let love come into your heart
    Don't lock yourself in an ivory tower
    Don't keep us so far apart

    I love you, I love you
    Are you too far above me to hear?

    Come down, come down from your ivory tower
    You'll find true love has its charms
    It's cold, so cold, in your ivory tower
    And warm, so warm in my arms

    I love you, I love you
    Are you too far above me to hear?

    Come down, come down from your ivory tower
    You'll find true love has its charms
    It's cold, so cold, in your ivory tower
    And warm, so warm in my arms

    I've Waited So Long
    Composer(s): Jerry Lordan
    Performer(s): Anthony Newley; Cal Tjader



    (So long, I've waited so long
    So long, I've waited so long)

    I've waited so long, a lifetime it seems
    For someone to step right out of my dreams
    All that an angel could be
    And meant for only me

    Play me a tune, haunting and blue
    Tell me of dreams that never come true
    Sing me a lonely song
    Till she comes along

    It will be so wonderful
    When love comes my way
    No more lonely hours
    They'll just fade away

    Some day we'll meet, somewhere I know
    We'll kiss and say "I love you so"
    Darling, surely I can't be so wrong
    For I've waited, yes I've waited
    So very lo-o-ong

    So long, my darling
    So long, my darling, darling

    Hark! Hark! What News The Angels Bring
    Composer(s): William Sandys



    Hark, Hark! what news the Angels bring
    Glad tidings of a new-born King
    Who is the Saviour of mankind
    In whom we may salvation find

    This is the day, the blessed morn
    The Saviour of mankind was born
    Born of a maid, a Virgin pure
    Born without sin, from guilt secure

    Hail, blessed Virgin, full of grace!
    Blessed above all mortal race
    Whose blessed womb brought forth in one
    A God, A Savior, and a Son

    A perfect God, a perfect man
    A mystery which no man can
    Attain to, tho' he's e'er so wise
    Till he ascent above the skies

    Arise, my soul, and then, my voice
    In hymns of praise early rejoice
    His fame extol and magnify
    Upon those errands Angels fly

    As Angels sung at Jesus' birth
    Sure we have greater cause for mirth
    For why, it was for our sake
    Christ did our human nature take

    Dear Christ, thou didst thyself debase
    Thus to descent to human race
    And leave thy Father's throne above
    Lord, what could move thee to this love?

    Man that was made out of the dust
    He found a paradise at first
    But see the God of Heaven and earth
    Laid in a manger at his birth

    Surely the manger where he lies
    Doth figure out his sacrifice
    And by his birth all men may see
    A pattern of humility

    Stupendous Babe! my God and King
    Thy praises I will ever sing
    In joyful accents raise my voice
    And in my praise of God rejoice

    My soul, learn by thy Saviour's birth
    For to debase thyself on earth
    That I may be exalted high
    To live with him eternally

    I am resolved whilst here I live
    As I'm in duty bound, to give
    All glory to the Deity
    One God alone in persons three

    I've told every little star
    Just how sweet I think you are
    Why haven't I told you

    I've told ripples in a brook
    Made my heart an open book
    Why haven't I told you

    Friends ask me am I in love
    I always answer yes
    Might as well confess
    If I don't they guess

    Maybe you may know it too
    Oh my darling if you do
    Why haven't you told me

    So this is Christmas
    And what have you done?
    Another year over
    And a new one just begun

    And so this is Christmas
    I hope you have fun
    The near and the dear one
    The old and the young

    A very Merry Christmas
    And a Happy New Year
    Let's hope it's a good one
    Without any fear

    And so this is Christmas
    For weak and for strong
    For rich and the poor ones
    The world is so wrong
    And so this is Christmas
    For black and for white
    For yellow and red ones
    Let's stop all the fight
    A very Merry Christmas
    And a Happy New Year
    Let's hope it's a good one
    Without any fear

    So this is Christmas
    And what have you done?
    Another year over
    And a new one just begun
    And so this is Christmas
    I hope you have fun
    The near and the dear one
    The old and the young

    A very Merry Christmas
    And a Happy New Year
    Let's hope it's a good one
    Without any fear

    War is over!
    If you want it
    War is over!
    Now!

    Johnny boy
    Take it slow
    Don't you know
    Don't you know

    She may kiss you like I do
    She may hold you like I do
    But she'll never
    No never never
    She will never never love you like I do

    She may whisper you're her only
    That without you she is lonely
    But she'll never
    No never never
    She will never never love you like I do

    She may sigh, you may fall
    And she'll never be at home when you call
    Can't you tell by her smile
    She just wants your heart to play with for awhile

    Take it slow

    Another year is almost through
    It's new year's eve and I'm with you
    Happy happy new year baby
    It's been a year I won't forget

    So many things I recall
    The joy of spring, the thrill of fall
    Happy happy new year baby
    It's been a year I won't forget

    Tick tock, two lovers watch the clock
    As the old year slowly slips away
    I pray, one year from today
    We'll be embracin' in the same old way

    Now's the time, dim the light
    It's twelve o'clock so hold me tight
    Happy happy new year baby
    It's been a year I won't forget

    Now's the time, oh dim the light
    It's twelve o'clock, so hold me, hold me tight
    Happy happy new year baby
    It's been a year I won't forget

    I've Taken A Liking To You
    Composer(s): Harry D. Kerr; W.C. Powell



    Since we first met, my heart's been set in winning your love some day
    your eyes of blue, show you'll be true, if cupid will lead the way
    Your golden hair, 'tis not rare, seems different from all the rest
    I've liked a score, but I think more and more that you're by far the best

    'Tis true, they say, that some fine day, your fate you will meet at last
    now if that's so, then I will know that day has come for me just passed
    For I can see, you have won me, and wouldn't it be right fine
    if I but knew I could only win you, to tell me you'll be mine

    I've taken a liking to you, yes you, that's true
    there's something about you that charms, your smile, your style
    in all this wide world there's but few, like you, to woo
    so tell me you may learn to like me someday, for I've taken a liking to you

    The snow makes teardrops on my window
    The wind blows memories through my hall
    And I am all alone on New Year's eve
    The time I need you most of all

    The gay ones don their silly paper hats
    And blow their stupid little horns
    At midnight they will all be singing Auld Lang Syne
    But the sad ones sit alone before the fire and sip a glass of lonely wine

    I wish you a Happy New Year darling
    May your new love be bright and fair
    I hope he'll do those special things for you
    That I would do if I were there.

    I love the days we spent together
    Before the old year lost it's shine
    I'll keep that memory locked within my heart
    That Happy New Year you were mine

    Strange, I've seen that face before Seen him hanging 'round my door Like a hawk stealing for the prey Like the night waiting for the day Strange, he shadows me back home Footsteps echo on the stones Rainy nights, on Hausmann Boulevard Parisian music, drifting from the bars Tu cherches quoi, rencontrer la mort Tu te prends pour qui, toi aussi tu detestes la vie Dance in bars and restaurants Home with anyone who wants Strange he's standing there alone Staring eyes chill me to the bone Dans sa chambre, Joel et sa valise un regard sur ses fringues Sur les murs, des photos Sans regret, sans mélo La porte est claquée, Joel est barré

    No more champagne
    And the fireworks are through
    Here we are, me and you
    Feeling lost and feeling blue
    It's the end of the party
    And the morning seems so grey
    So unlike yesterday
    Now's the time for us to say

    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have a vision now and then
    Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have our hopes, our will to try
    If we don't we might as well lay down and die
    You and I

    Sometimes I see
    How the brave new world arrives
    And I see how it thrives
    In the ashes of our lives
    Oh yes, man is a fool
    And he thinks he'll be okay
    Dragging on, feet of clay
    Never knowing he's astray
    Keeps on going anyway

    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have a vision now and then
    Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have our hopes, our will to try
    If we don't we might as well lay down and die
    You and I

    Seems to me now
    That the dreams we had before
    Are all dead, nothing more
    Than confetti on the floor
    It's the end of a decade
    In another ten years time
    Who can say what we'll find
    What lies waiting down the line
    In the end of eighty-nine

    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have a vision now and then
    Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
    Happy new year
    Happy new year
    May we all have our hopes, our will to try
    If we don't we might as well lay down and die
    You and I

    Happy Holidays Y'all
    Composer(s): Robert Earl Keen
    Performer(s): The Wacky Redneck Hillbillies



    There is a Barbie doll in the gravy boat up on mom's TV set
    An angel made of Styrofoam holds Rita's cigarette
    Santa waves an empty beer in his plastic hand
    Everyone is here again, it's Christmastime again

    You know the kids are in their sleepin' bags with every kind of toy
    And Ken and Kay have hit the hay in dadâs new La-Z-Boy
    Fran has got a cozy spot beneath the Christmas tree
    Sittin' in his underwear, drunk as he can be

    Last night we stuffed our stockings and hung the mistletoe
    When Santa Claus came knocking, he looked like Uncle Joe
    Someone put the coffee on and find the Tylenol
    Merry Christmas everyone, Happy Holidays y'all

    Of course old dad got mom a flannel robe and Ken a socket set
    Mom got Kay a super value pack of Nicorette
    And Kay got Ken a NordicTrack and a new guitar for me
    Ken got sister Spanish speaking lessons on CD

    Last night we all sang Jingle Bells and opened up our hearts
    This morning our house looks like hell or possibly Wal-Mart
    Someone clean the gravy boat and dress the Barbie doll
    Merry Christmas everyone, Happy Holidays y'all

    We're makin' mimosas on the deck and packin' the U-haul
    Merry Christmas everyone, God bless us one and all

    I've Passed This Way Before
    Composer(s): James Dean; William Weatherspoon
    Performer(s): Jimmy Ruffin; Scotty; The Temptations



    Life lends a crushing blow
    And once again a heart is broken
    And as history repeats itself
    These few words are sadly spoken

    I’ve passed this way before
    And I’ve felt this pain before
    A hurt that took so long to end
    Has found my poor heart again

    As I watch love walking away
    It brings back old memories
    A familiar pain still feels the same
    Once again heartache has found me

    A dark cloud covered my heart
    Oh, when she told me goodbye
    Now there’s nothing left but emptiness
    And the tears that fill my crying eyes

    I’ve passed this way before
    And I’ve felt this pain before
    A hurt that took so long to end
    Has found my poor heart again

    No matter how strong a man is
    Without love he walks in the dark
    If love deserts him it will surely hurt him
    Cos his weakness is his heart

    A lonely journey now stands before me
    The endless pain has started
    But this time I know the way
    Walking alone and broken hearted

    It so hard to face reality
    Knowing loneliness is my destiny

    Because I’ve passed this way before
    And I’ve felt this pain before
    A hurt that took so long to end
    Has found my poor heart again

    Crowded shoppers and busy feet
    And every smile just seems to say
    We're having some Happy Holidays

    Twinklin' lights on Christmas trees
    Kids up on old Santa's knee
    And busy lines on telephones
    Sending a Merry Christmas home

    Bells are ringin' everywhere
    Season's spirits in the air
    Up and down the avenue
    Holiday dreams are comin' true

    A choir singing songs of cheer
    Carols we all love to hear
    And Rudolph with his glowin' nose
    And lovers under mistletoe

    Postman bringin' Christmas cards
    Reindeer out in the yard
    And Frosty with his eyes of coal
    And presents wrapped in pretty bows

    Sidewalks full of happy eyes
    Flakes fallin' from the sky
    And boys and girls at the big parade
    To see Ssint Nick up on his sleigh

    The scene is set, it's beautiful
    Sounds of peace, joy and love
    From all of us we'd like to say
    Have yourself some Happy Holidays

    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
    Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr.; Frank Chacksfield



    Blossom:
    I Mean, I've Seen The World!
    I've Been Around
    I Could Tell You Stories
    That Would Quite Astound You!

    I'm Not A Fool!
    I Went To School!
    I've Been From Liverpool To Istanbul!
    Istanbul!
    I'm No Fool!
    And Anyone Will Tell You
    That I'm Sharper Than A Knife!
    But I've Never Seen Anything Like It
    In My Life!

    Dolittle:
    It's a pushmi-pullyu!

    Blossom:

    Well, I've Never Seen Anything Like It!

    You See......

    Running Up And Down A Mountain

    That'd Give The Audience A Rare Old Treat!

    Dolittle:

    Begets A Rare Ability
    Shared Only With The Mountain Goats Of France
    The Pushmi-Pullyu Loves To Dance!

    Happy Holiday/The Holiday Season
    Composer(s): Irving Berlin; Kay Thompson
    Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Martha Mears and multiple other artists



    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday
    While the merry bells keep ringing
    May your every wish come true

    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday
    May the calendar keep bringing
    Happy Holidays to you

    It's the holiday season
    And Santa Claus is coming back
    The Christmas snow is white on the ground
    When old Santa gets into town
    He'll be coming down the chimney, down
    Coming down the chimney, down

    It's the holiday season
    And Santa Claus has got a toy
    For every good girl and good little boy
    He's a great big bundle of joy
    He'll be coming down the chimney, down
    Coming down the chimney, down

    He'll have a big fat pack upon his back
    And lots of goodies for you and me
    So leave a peppermint stick for old St. Nick
    Hanging on the Christmas tree

    It's the holiday season
    With the whoop-de-do and hickory dock
    And don't forget to hang up your sock
    'Cause just exactly at 12 o'clock
    He'll be coming down the chimney
    Coming down the chimney
    Coming down the chimney, down!

    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday
    While the merry bells keep bringing
    Happy Holidays to you

    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday
    May the calendar keep bringing
    Happy Holidays to you
    To you
    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday
    Happy Holiday.......

    I've Never Seen A Straight Banana
    Composer(s): Ted Waite
    Performer(s): The Happiness Boys
    and multiple other artists



    You may have seen some funny things in your time
    But there's one thing you've not seen, I'd like to bet
    Would you like to know just what you have been missing?
    I'll tell you in the chorus but not yet
    Now I've got you puzzled
    So I'll tell you what I mean
    The thing that's in my mind
    I must confess, I haven't seen

    I have never, never, never, never
    I've never seen a straight banana
    I guess I must admit
    That I have searched quite a bit
    They're even curved when they are served in my banana split
    I have seen them by the car-load on the Delaware & Lacawana
    But have you ever? No, I've never
    I've never seen a straight banana

    I recall when I was in Alaska
    I saw the sun at twelve-o'clock at night
    I've seen the waterfalls at old Niagara
    I can vouch it is a most impressive sight
    But I'd like to see one certain thing
    But if it's not to be
    I'd like to meet somebody else
    Who saw what I can't see

    I've never, never, never, never seen a straight banana
    Although the things I hate
    Hundreds I have ate
    But I've never yet seen one banana that was straight
    I have traveled far to find one
    I've been to Chili and Havana
    But I've never, never, never
    I've never seen a straight banana

    I've never, never, never, never seen a straight banana
    Once I chanced to see a real life murder mystery
    The jury found the prisoner guilty in the first degree
    All at once we heard the prisoner holler out
    "This is the truth, your honor
    I've never, never never, never
    Never, never, never, never
    I've never seen a straight banana

    Happy Christmas To You From Me
    Composer(s): Lynsey De Paul; Barry Blue
    Performer(s): Lynsey De Paul & Barry Blue



    If we are the music
    and we are the words
    Well why don't we use it
    To give to the world....

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    We'd get all the children
    to sing a long
    You know we could use them
    To give this song....

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Well we could do with a little love and understanding
    and maybe a few prayers will help us too
    and maybe in time we could all of us join a hand in
    to make this Christmas dream come true

    Why are we living?
    What is it for?
    If not for giving
    We need some more....

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Papa doobe doobedoo, papa doobedoobedoo

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Well if only we could look to one another
    and maybe a little love will see us through
    for really we're all of us one sister and brother
    so let's make this Christmas dream come true

    For we are the music
    and we are the words
    So why don't we use it
    To give to the world....

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Peace and happiness and harmony
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Papa doobe doobedoo, papa doobedoobedoo
    Papa doobe doobedoo, papa doobedoobedoo

    (Peace and happiness and harmony)
    Happy Christmas to you from me

    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)
    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)
    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)
    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)
    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)
    Happy Christmas (Happy Christmas)

    Happy Christmas (la la la la la... la la la la)
