Histoire De Faussaire Composer(s): Georges Brassens Performer(s): Georges Brassens
Se découpant sur champ d'azur La ferme était fausse bien sûr Et le chaume servant de toit Synthétique comme il se doit
Au bout d'une allée de faux buis On apercevait un faux puits Du fond duquel la vérité N'avait jamais dû remonter
Et la maîtresse de céans Dans un habit, ma foi, seyant De fermière de comédie À ma rencontre descendit Et mon petit bouquet, soudain Parut terne dans ce jardin Près des massifs de fausses fleurs Offrant les plus vives couleurs
Ayant foulé le faux gazon Je la suivis dans la maison Où brillait sans se consumer Un genre de feu sans fumée
Face au faux buffet Henri deux Alignés sur les rayons de La bibliothèque en faux bois Faux bouquins achetés au poids
Faux Aubusson, fausses armures Faux tableaux de maîtres au mur Fausses perles et faux bijoux Faux grains de beauté sur les joues Faux ongles au bout des menottes Piano jouant des fausses notes Avec des touches ne devant Pas leur ivoire aux éléphants
Aux lueurs des fausses chandelles Enlevant ses fausses dentelles Elle a dit, mais ce n'était pas Sûr, tu es mon premier faux pas
Fausse vierge, fausse pudeur Fausse fièvre, simulateurs Ces anges artificiels Venus d'un faux septième ciel
La seule chose un peu sincère Dans cette histoire de faussaire Et contre laquelle il ne faut Peut-être pas s'inscrire en faux C'est mon penchant pour elle et mon Gros point du côté du poumon Quand amoureuse elle tomba D'un vrai marquis de Carabas
En l'occurrence Cupidon Se conduisit en faux-jeton En véritable faux témoin Et Vénus aussi, néanmoins Ce serait sans doute mentir Par omission de ne pas dire Que je leur dois quand même une heure Authentique de vrai bonheur
Vous C'est Nous First performance by: Virginie Pouchain - 2006
Peu importe sa patrie C'est ici que l'on vit L'eau et la terre Juste pour quelques hommes C'a nous coute cher On est tous des hommes Des femmes du monde
Tu sais nous, c'est vous Puisque vous, c'est nous
Peu importe ce qu'on dit C'est ici que l'on vit On n'est plus esclaves ni colons Alors souviens toi De'passe et marchons Vers le monde
Tu sais nous, c'est vous Puisque vous, c'est nous
Nos hiers se touchent ou se ressemblent Et demain existe Pourvu qu'on l'attende ensembles
Vivre une passion jusqu'à l'excès Avec l'amour pour Roi Aimer jusqu'à en être blessée Avec l'amour pour loi Se déchaîner jusqu'à la folie quand mort la jalousie Tout oublier au creux d'un grand lit C'est son histoire d'aimer
Dans le luxe d'un bel appartement ou je ne suis qu'un meuble Je fais parfois des rêves troublants ou tu n'es plus aveugle Amoureux et jaloux comme un fou Tu sais prendre et donner Alors je met en scène et je joue Mon histoire d 'aimer
La passion quand je la rêve Donne à notre amour la fièvre C'est mon histoire d'aimer Si tu me battais dans la vie Je crois que je te dirais merci La passion comme je la rêve Donne à notre amour la fièvre C'est mon histoire d'aimer Quand on vivra un autre amour avec amour
Quand tu me trompes et que tu me mens J'ai envie de hurler Pour que ta rage dans un élan puisse me bâillonner Dans un corps à corps désordonné je capitulerais Voilà comment j'ai souvent rêvé Mon histoire d'aimer
La passion quand je la rêve Donne à notre amour la fièvre C'est mon histoire d'aimer Si tu me battais dans la vie Je crois bien que je te dirais merci La passion comme je la rêve Donne à notre amour la fièvre C'est mon histoire d'aimer Si tu me battais dans la vie Je crois que te dirais merci La passion quand je la rêve Donne à notre amour la fièvre C'est mon histoire d'aimer Si tu me battais dans la vie...
Stay Awhile Composer(s): Ken Tobias Performer(s): The Bells
Into my room he creeps Without making a sound Into my dreams he peeps With his hair all long and hanging down
How he makes me quiver How he makes me smile With all this love I have to give him I guess I'm gonna stay with him awhile
She brushes the curls from my eyes She drops her robe on the floor And she reaches for the light on the bureau And the darkness is her pillow once more
How she makes me quiver How she makes me smile With all this love I have to give her I guess I'm gonna stay with her awhile
How it makes me quiver How it makes me smile With all this love I have to give you Guess I'm gonna stay with you awhile
How it makes me quiver How it makes me smile With all this love I have to give you Guess I'm gonna stay with you awhile
His Wife Refused Composer(s): David Byrne Performer(s): David Byrne
A great big house- with nothing in it He comes home says "Now wait a minute" He's comin' in She's goin' out He turns around says, "What's that about?"
Do what they like, the kid's in school Think she don't know, now, who's kidding who? He turns around says "Who wants to know?" Open the door and there's nobody home!
Go ahead- fill their heads Go ahead- fill their heads with poison Take a look- these people are savages! Take a look- at their misfortune
I'm goin up I got a message I'm gonna wait till I close the door I'm gonna wrap, myself in blankets I'm gonna, roll out, across the floor
Well the bride bride and the groom Run in a circle around their house They're goin' out they're comin' in Inside a circle around their house
These shoes don't fit- this tie don't match I'm gonna throw it away when I get home I'm turned around I'm doin' my best I'm gonna wait until the light comes on
Yes he's the king and she's the queen Run in a circle around their house Open the door and let them in Inside a circle around their house
Mr. Nobody Composer(s): Matja Vlaic - Ura Vlaic First performance by: Anej Dean - 2006
You, you came to me one night Just like a ray of light I thought we'd be forever
Now it's so clear to me I'm part of history You're leaving me in sorrow
So deeply, so badly, you're hurting me
Tell me, who's that lucky hero Sleeping tightly on your pillow? Ah... tell me, will it be forever? 'Cause when you look at me I'm Mister Nobody It's just a game you play Can't let you walk away
Like a stranger passing by With no more tears to dry You're leaving me in sorrow
So deeply, so badly, you're hurting me
Tell me, who's that lucky hero Sleeping tightly on your pillow? Ah... tell me, will it be forever? 'Cause when you look at me I'm Mister Nobody It's just a game you play Can't let you walk away
Tell me, who's that lucky hero Sleeping tightly on your pillow? Ah... tell me, will it be forever? 'Cause when you look at me I'm Mister Nobody It's just a game you play Can't let you walk away
His Rocking Horse Ran Away From the Film "And The Angels Sing 1944" Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen Performer(s): Betty Hutton; and various other artists
I must sit down for a minute I'm ready to fall in a heap Willie's been fed and I've tucked him in bed thank goodness the darling's asleep He's a wonderful boy and a joy and a boon
Ahh, gee, you should have seen him this afternoon
Bang went the bridge lamp, down went the table, crash went the china tray But he said "I couldn't help it, my rocking horse ran away!" Rip rip went the curtain, wham went the window, crunch went the new buffet And I heard him tell his daddy "My rocking horse ran away"
Somehow Indians got into our front room Our cowboy grabbed for his gun and went boom, boom, boom, boom, boom
Slam went the screen door, smash went the mirror, looks like I'll soon be gray But he smiles and what's the difference and maybe some Mother's Day I'll remember when his rocking horse ran away
Got up early this morning, wore a flimsy negligee Had to hurry to fix the breakfast and get daddy on his way Figured I could get the paper, so the neighbors wouldn't see So I sneaked out on the porch, very, very quietly Wham went the dish pan, then came a holler, up went the neighbor's shade It was Mother's little darling, out on a commando raid
Came home late from a picture. I was tired, my shoes were tight Took off my stockings, dropped my girdle Got undressed and pulled the light. boy! Slipped into my night gown, then tiptoed across the floor Better have a look at Junior, so I peeked into his door Clang, clang, clang went a cowbell, whee went a whistle, I nearly had a stroke It was mother's precious baby, just havin' his little joke
Always just when I'm breathin' a peaceful sigh There's G-Men, coppers and robbers and hi-yo silver! Bam went the book case, boot went the fruit bowl, boom went the glass bouquet But he smiles and what's the difference and maybe some mother's day I'll remember when, bang went the lamp, down went the table Crash went the tray, rip rip went the curtain, wham went a window Clang went a bell, whee went a whistle, bam went a pan, slam went a door On that eventful day, when his rocking horse ran away
Stay Away From The Apple Tree Composer(s): Roger Bowling - Chris Butler Performer(s): Billie Jo Spears; Lena Martell
In the beginning God made the world And something wasn't right He reached down His hand and He made man Then He smiled, 'cause it was right
But it didn't take long for Him to see This man was so alone So He gave him a woman To love and call his own
Now, the devil had an apple tree The fruit, it looked so fine Man took a bite, it tasted sweet So he stepped out of line
Now today it's still the same And I know she's tempting you So with all my love and all my heart I am begging you
Stay away, stay away from the apple tree Don't you know that all she wants to do Is hurt you and me? Stay away, stay away from the apple tree And spend all your time loving me
His Lips Get In The Way French Title: Je Ne Veux Que Lui Composer(s): Howard Greenfield; Helen Miller Performer(s): The Shirelles
Everybody tells me I'm A fool and I'm just wastin' time To love someone who's not in love with me Friends all say that I'm a dope To stay in love when there's no hope But I'm a dope who loves him hopelessly
Chorus: What can I do? Hey, what can I say? Each time I try to say goodbye His lips get in the way Oh yeah, his lips get in the way
He says my love don't mean a thing But still he keeps me on a string I'm just someone he likes to have around I say I want no more of this But then he stops me with a kiss I can't resist him though he puts me down
(chorus)
Everybody calls me fool They say "Hey girl, go back to school and learn the things that every girl should know" But I guess I've got no brains Because my foolish heart remains I just can't break the chains & let him go, no no
His Hand In Mine Composer(s): Mosie Lister Performer(s): Elvis Presley; and various other artists
You may ask me how I know my Lord is real (my Lord is real) You may doubt the things I say and doubt the way I feel (the way I feel) But I know he's real today he'll always be (he'll always be) I can feel his hand in mine and that's enough for me
I will never walk alone he holds my hand (he holds my hand) He will guide each step I take And if I fall I know he'll understand Till the day he tells me why he loves me so (he loves me so) I can feel his hand in mine That's all I need to know
I will never walk alone he holds my hand (he holds my hand) He will guide each step I take And if I fall I know he'll understand Till the day he tells me why he loves me so (he loves me so) I can feel his hand in mine That's all I need to know
I can feel his hand in mine That's all I need to know
Stay Awake Composer(s): Robert B. Sherman - Richard M. Sherman First release by: Julie Andrews - 1964 Covered by multiple other artists
Stay awake don't rest your head Don't lie down upon your bed While the moon drifts in the skies Stay awake don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep Though your pillows soft and deep You're not sleepy as you seem Stay awake don't nod and dream Stay awake don't nod and dream
His Eye Is On The Sparrow Composer(s): Civilla D. Martin; Charles H. Gabriel Performer(s): Mahalia Jackson; and various other artists
Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heaven and home When Jesus is my portion? My constant friend is He His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me
I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free For His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me
"Let not your heart be troubled" His tender word I hear And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me
I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free For His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me
Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me
I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free For His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me
Stay As Sweet As You Are Composer(s): Mack Gordon - Harry Revel First performance by: Lanny Ross - 1934 Covered by multiple other artists
Stay as sweet as you are Don't let a thing Ever change you Stay as sweet as you are Don't let a soul Rearrange you
Don't ever lose The charm you possess Your loveliness, darling The way you say "yes" Stay as sweet as you are Discreet as you are You're divine, dear
Stay as grand as you are And as you are Tell me that you're mine, dear Young and gay or old and gray Near to me or afar Night and day I pray That you'll always stay As sweet as you are
Young and gay or old and gray Near to me or afar Night and day I pray That you'll always stay As sweet as you are
Hiroshima Mon Amour Composer(s): Warren Cann; Billy Currie; John Foxx Performer(s): Ultravox
Somehow we drifted off too far Communicate like distant stars Splintered voices down the 'phone The sunlit dust, the smell of roses drifts, oh no Someone waits behind the door Hiroshima mon amour
Riding inter-city trains Dressed in European grey Riding out to echo beach A million memories in the trees and sands, oh no How can I ever let them go? Hiroshima mon amour
Meet beneath the autumn lake Where only echoes penetrate Walk through polaroids of the past Future's fused like shattered glass, the sun's so low Turns our silhouettes to gold Hiroshima mon amour
