Star De L'entracte Composer(s): Jean-Claude Vannier - Julien Clerc Performer(s): Julien Clerc
T'as vingt ans, un répondeur, un pseudo Ton book, ton C.V., ta gueule, ta photo Dans une pub au ciné pour la bière Tu bois, tu verse une larme au fond d'ton verre
Pour trente secondes La camera tourne Autour de toi
T'es bien trop swing pour rester derrière Mais pas assez pour être dans la lumière Le premier rôle ce s'ra pour demain La pellicule te glisse entre les mains
Tu bois tu pleures Mais tu seras toujours La star de l'entracte
Dix ans plus tard, répondeur et pseudo Même book, même C.V., toujours les photos L'cinéma t'a filé qu'les mailles à l'envers Tu t'détricotes dans un peep show désert et pour vingt balles On tourne on tourne Autour de toi
T'es bien trop swing pour rester derrière Exprime-toi bien, mets-toi là dans la lumière Un verre au bar, c'est déjà demain Les hommes, les mecs, tu glisses entre leurs mains
{Refrain}
T'avoues trente cinq, répondeur et pseudo Sur son bureau, il a mis ta photo
T'as mal au cur Et la terre tourne Autour de toi
T'as un studio dans la rue derrière Et quand sa femme a éteint toutes les lumières Elle l'aime tellement - baisers, à demain - Y monte chez toi, le verre te glisse des mains

I'm hot like indian spice, like boiling water I'm in the mood, no-one can stop me tonight So turn the power on, gimme the guitar No time for misery all right
When the bass is loud, drums sound like a thunder I'm spinning round my records that's right Come on, let's raise the roof Wake up the neighbours Open the windows, scream and shout
We're not angels in the sky Playing harp and flying high Now we can rock the crowd So let's get loud
Come on girls, sing along that song Shake the house till the early morning Boring yesterday is gone So let's get loud
Come on girls, you can rock the crowd Dance all night, turn on the party We just wanna hear you shout So let's get loud
(So let's get loud, yeah)
Turn off the TV-set This soap is boring Bold & Beautiful ain't our theme tonight So let us rule your heart And be the leaders Wake up you guys and feel alive
We're not angels in the sky Playing harp and flying high Now we can turn the crowd So let's get loud
Come on girls, sing along that song Shake the house till the early morning Boring yesterday is gone So let's get loud
Come on girls, you can rock the crowd Dance all night, turn on the party We just wanna hear you shout So let's get loud
(Let's get loud, let's get loud) (Let's get loud, let's get loud)
Come on girls, sing along that song Shake the house till the early morning Boring yesterday is gone So let's get loud
Come on girls, you can rock the crowd Dance all night, turn on the party We just wanna hear you shout So let's get loud
Come on girls, sing along that song Shake the house till the early morning Boring yesterday is gone So let's get loud
Come on girls, you can rock the crowd Dance all night, turn on the party We just wanna hear you shout So let's get loud

Hey, Little Cobra, don't you know you're gonna to shut 'em down
I took my Cobra down to the track hitched to the back of my Cadillac
Everyone was there just a waiting for me There were plenty of Stingrays and XKEs
Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might
Hey, Little Cobra, don't you know you are going to shut them down
When the flag went down, you could hear rubber burn The Stingray pulled me going into the turn
I hung a big shift, and I got into high, When I when I flew by the Stingray, I waved bye bye.
Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might
Hey, Little Cobra, Don't you know you are going to shut 'em down
Around the turn into the straight away I was blowing off everything that got in my way,
Stingrays and Jags were so far behind I took my Cobra out of gear and let it coast to the line.
Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might Spring little Cobra getting ready to strike Spring Little Cobra with all your might
Hey, Little Cobra, Don't you know you are going to shut 'em down

Standing here alone again Waiting for the moment that we shared, my love No matter how many lies you say No matter how many miles you walk away from me Lorraine
Here I am, all alone Waiting for the moment again But I know that you are gone
You got to know that harder the rain Sweeter the pain I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
Calling you again and again I'll wait for your name I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
Whispering your name again Singing prayers among the stars For you, my sweet Lorraine You've always given me some great times Try to imagine how we fly so far away from here My Lorraine
Here I am, all alone Waiting for the moment we shared But I know that you are gone
You got to know that harder the rain Sweeter the pain I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
Calling you again and again I'll wait for your name I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
I can still remember Lorraine I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
You got to know that harder the rain Sweeter the pain (My sweet Lorraine) I can still remember Lorraine in the rain (Remember Lorraine in the rain)
Calling you again and again (Again and again and again) I'll wait for your name (My sweet Lorraine) I can still remember Lorraine in the rain
(I will fly so far away from here, my love) I can still remember Lorraine in the rain

I Wonder What The Weather's Like In Charleston Composer(s): Moneen Carpenter Performer(s): Bill Anderson
Though you never talked of allways you were gentle And life was simple just because you cared I never thought too much about tomorrow I just could not imagine you're not here
I wonder what the weather's like in Charleston Someone said they heard that's where you've gone I hope it doesn't rain today in Charleston For I want you always walking in the sun
I'm sure you never meant to leave me hurtin' But I guess the urge to go got out of hand So you left without a word of explanation I hope somehow you know I understand
I wonder what the weather's like in Charleston Someone said they heard that's where you've gone I hope it doesn't rain today in Charleston For I want you always walking in the sun...
Star Composer(s): A. Clarke - T. Sylvester - Tony Hicks Performer(s): The Hollies
I was jiving along in my big cadillac saw a thumb going up, I said "Driver go back" Played her a track from my latest LP Getting bad vibes she hadn't recognized me
She said she didn't know me but my name's been in lights giant size neons on the strip every night The camera man did the best that he can Still she said "I don't know you" I just can't understand
I'm a star, yeah I'm a star (Baby bathe in my glow) I'm a star, anyway
I was trying to be nice but I'm not into that I usually make it without any chat
She was taking it easy, taking it slow I said "Come on baby, I'm ready to go"
I'm a star, yeah I'm a star. (Baby bathe in my glow) I'm a star, anyway
She said "Drop me off here" and to my surprise you wouldn't believe it, it was Beverly Drive Some sort of commotion, what's happening here? We've arrived at her premiere, I shouldn't be here
She's a star, yeah She's a star, I didn't know it She's a star anyway
Star Composer(s): Joe Egan Performer(s): Stealers Wheel
So they've made you a star Now your head's in a cloud And you're walkin' down the street With your feet off the ground
They read in the press all about your success They believe every word they've been told After all you've been through tell what will you do When you find yourself out in the cold Ah, tell me Ah, tell me
When you appear on the stage There's a standing ovation You really live out your performance You're the biggest sensation
You breeze through the door and when you take the floor You expect to have it all to yourself After all you've been through tell me what will you do When you find yourself back on the shelf Ah, tell me Ah, tell me
You breeze though the door and when you take the floor You expect to have it all to yourself After all you've been through tell me what will you do When you find yourself back on the shelf Ah, tell me Ah, tell me
