Hombrediablo es mi amigo más genial Hombrediablo es más que sensacional bebedor bravucón y además seductor
Conocí al Hombrediablo en la niñez cuando aún yo no tomaba ni café Él ya entonces andaba a su sazón tenía citas y hacía alardes de matón
Tenía mujer y yo tenía que estudiar tenía mujer y yo tareas que acabar El crecía en el barrio de Colón y yo en medio del Dante y Platón
Siempre admiré su situación frente al amor siempre admiré sus puñetazos al mentón Hombrediablo es mi amigo más genial Hombrediablo es más que sensacional
Hombrediablo hace apuestas en alcohol siempre gana porfía el bebedor No se deja atrapar por un amor porque vive a la salva de su honor
Se ve muy bien con su tupé, con su dril cien se ve muy bien con su bigote a lo francés Los domingos se va al cine en procesión con su novia, que espera en un sillón
Se ve muy bien aunque está madurito ya se ve muy bien siempre ha sabido no sudar Hombrediablo es mi amigo más genial Hombrediablo es más que sensacional
Cuando a veces nos vemos por ahí me aconseja que me lance a vivir me da el número de alguna mujer porque a un socio él le sabe resolver
Me cuenta así sus aventuras de Don Juan me cuenta así mientras mi envidia crece más Siempre huele a lavanda o a mentol y se pule las uñas con alcohol
Me dice adiós Yo me conmuevo al verlo ir Me dice adiós y siempre pienso "eso es vivir" Hombrediablo es mi amigo más genial Hombrediablo es más que sensacional
All Night Long
Composer(s): Peter Frampton - Mick Gallagher
First release by: Peter Frampton - 1973
Trees falling leaves come alive, watch them glide
Eyes come to life when you smile for a while
Tables keep turning now the full moon has been seen
Know what I mean
Tell you what to do baby - all night long
It would take me - all night long
Show you how I feel - all night long
I've seen you in the papers they say you play at pool
I think you got me snookered if we play your rules
Maybe you can't see the way to be sure anymore
I can't help feeling like closing the door
Images are fading and the thought of you has gone
Baby it's wrong
'Cause all I need is - all night long
It would only take me - all night long
To show you how I feel - all night long
They say you read me like a book then make the book a film
You can write the screen play I can't wait 'til then
I wish I knew what I could do
It feels like somethings overdue
Communications broken down
Still got me snookered when you wear your crown
All night long
It would only take me - all night long
Won't ya, won't ya give - all night long
Yeah, I've seen you in the papers they say you play at pool
I think you got me snookered no exception to the rule
Give me - all night long
Won't ya, won't ya give - all night long
It would only take me - all night long
To show you how I feel
'Cause you still got me snookered and it's quite unreal
De quererte cantar sufro disnea bastante más allá de los pulmones Tu sombra brilla hoy en la pelea mayor de la conciencia y las razones Por ti canto de pecho como el sueño en que giro y leve, como aún respiro Por ti adelanto trecho a lo que falta en tono y canto lo que no perdono
Hombre, hombre y amigo aún queda para estar contigo Hombre, hombre sin templo desciende a mi ciudad tu ejemplo
Supiste cabalgar contra quien odia desde su torre de odio y exterminio pero, en mi parecer, te dio más gloria el alma que tallaste a tu dominio La medicina escasa la más insuficiente es la de remediar la mente Y la locura pasa risueña cuando engaña cual odio de la propia entraña
Hombre sin apellido un poco de piedad te pido hombre, ay, todavía que un tanto más allá está el día De la melena inculta a la calvicie del número inicial a lo incontable desde la tumba hasta la superficie tras breve veinte tan multiplicable me llega un canto alado de fiebres de la infancia me brota la invención del ansia y entero y mutilado furiosamente a besos te doy mi corazón travieso
Hombre, hombre sin muerte la noche respiró tu suerte hombre de buen destino y hay luces puestas en camino

Homage To Marat Composer(s): Adrian Mitchell; Richard Peaslee Performer(s): Peter Weiss
Four years after the revolution and the old king's execution Four years after I remember
how those courtiers took their final vow String up every aristocrat Out with the priests Let them live on their fat Four years after we started fighting Marat keeps on with his writing Four years after the Bastille fell He still recalls the old battle yell Down with all of the ruling class Throw all the generals out on their arse Good old Marat by your side we'll stand or fall You're the only one that we can trust at all Four years he fought and he fought unafraid Sniffing down traitors by traitors betrayed Marat in the courtroom Marat underground Sometimes the otter and sometimes the hound Fight ing all the gentry and fighting every priest Businessman the bourgeois the military beast Marat always ready to stifle every scheme of the sons of the arse licking dying regime We've got new generals our leaders are new They sit and they argue and all that they do Is sell their own colleagues and ride upon their backs And jail them and break them and give them all the axe Screaming in language that no one understands Of the rights that we grabbed with our own bleeding hands When we wiped out the bosses and stormed through the wall Of the prison they told us would outlast us all Marat we're poor And the poor stay poor Marat don't make Us wait anymore We want our rights and we don't care how We want our revolution now Why do they have the gold Why do they have the power Why why why Do they have the friends at the top Why do they have the jobs at the top We've got nothing Always had nothing Nothing but holes and millions of them Living in holes dying in holes Holes in our bellies and holes in our clothes Marat we're poor And the poor stay poor Marat don't make us wait anymore Poor old Marat they hunt you down The bloodhounds are sniffing all over the town Poor old Marat you work til your eyes turn as red as rust poor old Marat We trust in you ....
A simple Swedish girl was Hilda When she landed here But in one short year She learned our ways and everything She got a beau named Yonnie Yonson Since she left the boat She sent his picture to the folks back home On the back of it she wrote
Now if you look at Yonnie's picture, you might think he's slow But he seems to know 'Bout cows and dogs and everything And when you talk about my Yonnie, you speak of the best I found out lots of things about that boy He's so different from the rest
Holy Yumpin' Yiminy How my Yonny can love When he kisses me, oh what yoy, makes me feel so oh! by Yiminy! He bane my sweet Papa, I bane his Turtle dove He no bane much on reading books And he bane worse when it comes to looks but holy Yumpin Yiminy, how my Yonnie can love

You said you came in off the street King of the promised land You offered me your heart I took your hand Now you go towards Albana To challenge our destiny How we tried You don't eat meat But you eat your heart out, Steven It's time to get even I'll make it up to you I'll go, I'll try With you in mind Oh Steven You dressed me in my glad rags You in your Gladiolia Just like those other lifetimes At least that's what you told me The taste of reality was Such a hard, bitter-sweet pill You took to your bed again Oh, are you still ill? Are you still ill? You don't eat meat But you eat your heart out, Steven It's time to get even I'll make it up to you I'll go, I'll try With you in mind Oh Steven I have faith for both of us, you said I have faith for both of us You walked in off the street King of the promised land You offered me your heart I took your hand You don't eat meat But you eat your heart out, Steven It's time to get even I'll make it up to you You don't eat meat But you eat your heart out, Steven It's time to get even I'll make it up to you Oh Steven You little charmer...
Fare thee well, my lovely Dinah a thousand times adieu We are bound away from the Holy Ground and the girls we love so true We'll sail the salt seas over and we'll return once more And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
Chorus: You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
Now when we're out a-sailing and you are far behind Fine letters will I write to you with the secrets of my mind The secrets of my mind, my girl you're the girl that I adore And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
Chorus: You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
Oh now the storm is raging and we are far from shore The poor old ship she's sinking fast and the riggings they are tore The night is dark and dreary we can scarcely see the moon But still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
Chorus: You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more
It's now the storm is over and we are safe on shore We'll drink a toast to the Holy Ground and the girls that we adore We'll drink strong ale and porter and we'll make the taproom roar And when our money is all spent we'll go to sea once more
Chorus: You're the girl that I adore And still I live in hope to see the Holy Ground once more

Hero Composer(s): Fredrik Kempe - Bobby Ljunggren First performance by: Charlotte Perrelli - 2008
Everything has a beginning Everything comes to an end Take it or leave it, you'd better believe it Be my love or be my friend
Try to deny what you're feeling And you'll know that your heart will say no Love will last longer, growing stronger and stronger If you stay and don't let go
Oh... out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive Oh... taking the fight is the life of a hero Staying alive
This is a story of love and compassion Only heroes can tell Oh... out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive
Heaven and earth keep colliding But with love on a world of its own Oh... there you can't fake it, just make it or break it Only you can find the one
Oh... out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive Oh... taking the fight is the life of a hero Staying alive
This is a story of love and compassion Only heroes can tell Oh... out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive (Will survive) Oh... survive (Will survive)
Heroes can live on their own But heroes never die alone
Oh... out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive Oh... taking the fight is the life of a hero Staying alive (This is a story of love and compassion) Heroes can tell Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero Love will survive

Ring around the rosies Alaman left with your left hand Back to your partner, right and left grand Pocket full of posies Swing grandma across the hall She ain't been swung since way last fall Watch your little toesies Chase that rabbit, chase that squirrel Chase that purty girl 'round the world As you go 'round and 'round and 'round
Stepsister's Lament Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II - Richard Rodgers Performer(s): Kenneth Williams and multiple other artists
Why would a fellow want a girl like her? A frail and fluffy beauty Why cant a fellow ever once prefer A solid girl like me? Shes a frothy little bubble With a flimsy kind of charm And with very little trouble I could break her little arm Oh, why would a fellow want a girl like her So obviously unusual Why cant a fellow ever once prefer A usual girl like me?
Her cheeks are a pretty shade of pink But not any pinker than a rose is Her skin may be delicate and soft But not any softer than a does is Her neck is no whiter than a swans Shes only as dainty as a daisy Shes only as graceful as a bird So why should the fellows go all crazy?
Oh, why would a fellow want a girl like her? A girl whos merely lovely Why cant a fellow ever once prefer A girl whos merely me?
Whats the matter with the men? Whats the matter with the men? Whats the matter with the men?
Wolves Of The Sea Composer(s): Torbjörn Wassenius - Claes Andreasson - Johan Sahlen - Jonas Liberg First performance by: Pirates of the Sea - 2008
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're hoisting the flag to be free We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go We are wolves of the sea
Don't try to run, it's all set and done There's a treasure in sight We are robbing you blind I hope you don't mind We are taking it all tonight
Just walk away, we will conquer it all Pirates will stand and the loser will fall
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're bound to be close to the sea Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing: Pirates are all we can be
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're hoisting the flag to be free We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go We are wolves of the sea
Down to the core, we're coming for more With a sword close at hand We are scary and bold, a chest full of gold We get sealegs when sighting land
The hook of our captain is looking at you There's no Peter Pan, so what can you do?
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're bound to be close to the sea Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing: Pirates are all we can be
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're hoisting the flag to be free We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go We are wolves of the sea
If you cry out to storm We pirates will stand tall A skull and crossbone flag is closing in To see you fall
(Hum, hi ho, hi hum, hi hey) (Hum, hi ho, hi hey) (Hum, hi ho, hi hum, hi hey)
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're hoisting the flag to be free We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go We are wolves of the sea
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're bound to be close to the sea Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing: Pirates are all we can be
With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey We're hoisting the flag to be free We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go We are wolves of the sea We are wolves of the sea
Vitamin L Composer(s): Mary Kay Place Performer(s): Mary Kay Place
When I was a kid N livin at home I took feelin fine for granted Well, I didnt know then What I know now Why Mama always raved n ranted
She said, Early to bed N early to rise Live the golden rule N exercise N most important of all She said with a grin Be sure you get your vitamins
Vitamins A n C n D n B Well they keep you healthy n well But Mama didnt tell me when I was a kid All about Vitamin L She sure forgot to tell me When I was a kid All about Vitamin L
Mama made me eat carrots N hominy grits Though I really felt disinclined But she said they was packed with vitamin A And if I didnt that Id go blind She said, Your skinll break out N youll get beri beri Less you eat all them black-eyed peas Cause them and the greens N the lima beans They all got vitamin B
N youll get scurvy Less you eat them prunes Cause they got vitamin C Well then, cmon outside N play in the sun Or get rickets from no vitamin D
Well, I did what she said N I ate what she asked N for a while I felt real swell But I sure wish Mama Had told me back then All about Vitamin L Yeah, I sure wish Mama Had a mentioned to me All about Vitamin L
Well, thanks to vitamins N Mamas advice I grew to be healthy n strong Till a cowboy one night That I loved at first sight Well, he hurt me n he done me wrong Well, he loved me n he left me But he taught me the ropes Specially bout Vitamin L
Cause Vitamin L is a love, you see And without it Well, its hell
Cause of all the vitamins in your Daily minimum requirement Mm, Vitamin Ls the most Important to you Cause if you dont get enough Vitamin L Your heartll break a-right in two I know vitamin Cs real good for a cold Vitamin B if your lips should swell But the only thing that cures Them love sick blues Is a shot o that Vitamin L Well, I surely do need me A big ole dose Of that good ole Vitamin L
Steppin' Stones Composer(s): Kat Graham - J. Francis Keus Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan
On the rocky road to love the goin' has been rough I fall down but somehow I always got back up I've climbed every mountain, crossed every valley too I had a heart without a home but I kept on keepin' on Lookin' for a love that would be true But they were all just steppin' stones to you
Well, I have walked on mines when I should have read the signs Sayin', 'Dead end, don't rush in' but I did every time An' I started believin' that I was born to lose, oh, don't know Oh, but those days are gone 'cause the love that you have shown Has given me another point of view Oh, but they were all just steppin' stones to you
Steppin' stones, I've stumbled over hearts 'til I found, solid ground It's so clear, ain't it funny that it took a trail of tears to get me here Now with no stone left unturned I have finally learned There's a reason, things work out the way they do Yeah, they were all just steppin' stones to you
I have no regrets for the paths I have walked They all turned to sand now but you are my rock
Steppin' stones, I've stumbled over hearts 'til I found, solid ground It's so clear but ain't it funny that it took a trail of tears to get me here Now with no stone left unturned, I have finally learned There's a reason, things work out the way they do But they were all just steppin' stones to you
