At First Sight ((Portuguese & Spanish Versions: A Primeira Vista (by Chico César); A Primera Vista (by Pedro Aznar)) Composer(s): Chico César - Pedro Aznar Performer(s): Pedro Aznar
When I had nothing I desired When all was absence I waited When I was cold I trembled When I had the courage I called
When the letter arrived I opened it When I heard Prince (Salif Keita) I danced When the eye sparkled I understood When I grew wings I flew
When I was called, there I went When I took notice I was there When I found you I lost myself As soon as I saw you I fell in love
A Pretty Girl Milking Her Cow Composer(s): Roger Edens Performer(s): Judy Garland and multiple other artists
Twas on a bright morning in Summer When I first heard his voice spakin' low As he said to a colleen beside him "Who's that pretty girl milking her cow?"
Och many times often ye met me And told me that I should be You darling, Acushla A Lana Mavourneen, Asuilish machree
Purty girl, purty girl With no on there to show her how The purt, purt, purty girl is now Milking her cow
I have not the manners or graces Of the girls in the world where ye move And I have not their beautiful faces But oh, I've a heart that can love
And if it please ye, I'll dress me in satin With jewels, jewels in me brow But och, don't be after forgettin' Your purty girl milking her cow
Purty girl, purty cow, I'm sure this song would have never been wrote If the pretty girl hadda been milking her goat But the goat wasn't feeling well anyhow So the pretty girl was milking her cow
Her cow, her cow... La, la, la, la, la, la... La, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la A purty girl milking her cow!
Hungry Planet Composer(s): Skip Battin; Kim Fowley; Roger McGuinn Performer(s): The Byrds
I'm a hungry planet I had a youthful face They were in a hurry To go to outer space They needed bombs and tungsten Ore and iron too So they climbed and they dug and they blew Divided me right in two I'm a hungry planet Orbiting in the sky The things they did to hurt me Pass on by and by Now here I am all alone They never ever learn Well I had to shake and quake And make their houses burn I'm a hungry planet I had the bluest seas Oh the people kept choppin' down All my finest trees Poisonin' my oxygen Diggin' into my skin Takin' more out of my good earth Than they'll ever put back in I'm a hungry planet
A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody From the film "There's No Business Like Show Business" (1954) Composer(s): Irving Berlin
A pretty girl is like a melody That haunts you night and day Just like the strain of a haunting refrain She'll start up on a marathon And run a-round your brain You can't escape, she's in your memory Bby morning night and noon She will leave you and then Come back again A pretty girl is just like a pretty tune
Hungry Like The Wolf Composer(s): Simon LeBon; Nick Rhodes; Andy Taylor; John Taylor; Roger Taylor Performer(s): Duran Duran
Dark in the city night is a wire Steam in the subway earth is afire Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo Woman you want me give me a sign And catch my breathing even closer behind Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you Smell like I sound I'm lost in a crowd And I'm hungry like the wolf. Straddle the line in discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you. Mouth is alive with juices like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest too close to hide I'll be upon you by the moonlight side Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo High blood Drumming on your skin it's so tight You feel my heart I'm just a moment behind Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you Scent and a sound. I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf. Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine I'm after you Mouth is alive all running inside And I'm hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt I'm after you I smell like I sound. I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you Mouth is alive with juices like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf
À Present, Tu Peux T'en Aller ((Adapted from: I Only Want To Be With You (by Dusty Springfield - 1963)) ((Spanish Version: Ahora Te Puedes Marchar (by Les Surfs) - 1971)) Composer(s): Mike Hawker - Ivor Raymonde - Gérard Bourgeois - Jean Max Rivière Performer(s): Richard Anthony; Les Surfs - 1964
Si seulement tu m'avais dit la vérité Nous ne serions pas sur le point de nous quitter J'aurais toujours gardé au fond de moi L'amour que j'ai eu peur de perdre tant de fois Et que l'on m'a volé, à présent tu peux t'en aller
J'aurais voulu alors qu'il était encore temps Que tu viennes vers moi un peu comme une enfant Tout m'avouer en face j'aurais compris Mais puisque ce sont les autres qui me l'ont dit Moi je veux t'oublier, à présent, tu peux t'en aller
Tu peux chercher encore à reprendre de ta chance Mais il est trop tard pour nous deux Rien n'a plus d'importance Je t'avais dit qu'il ne fallait pas prendre l'amour comme une jeu Tu n'avais pas le droit, nous étions si heureux Et toutes tes larmes ne pourront pas Me rendre la confiance que j'avais pour toi Je ne veux plus t'aimer, à présent, tu peux t'en aller
Pourtant je veux quand même te redonner ta chance Il est encore temps pour nous deux Déjà tout recommence Et c'est pourquoi: Malgré ce que tu m'as fait Je veux te donner L'amour que tous les autres ont voulu te voler Et que tu gardais au fond de toi En sachant bien qu'un jour tu reviendras vers moi Pour te faire pardonner Et qu'enfin l'on pourrait s'aimer Et qu'enfin l'on pourrait s'aimer
Hungry Heart Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen; and various other artists
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore Jack I went out for a ride and I never went back Like a river that don't know where it's flowing I took a wrong turn and I just kept going
Chorus Everybody's got a hungry heart Everybody's got a hungry heart Lay down your money and you play your part Everybody's got a hungry heart
I met her in a Kingston bar We fell in love I knew it had to end We took what we had and we ripped it apart Now here I am down in Kingston again
Chorus
Everybody needs a place to rest Everybody wants to have a home Don't make no difference what nobody says Ain't nobody like to be alone
Ahora Te Puedes Marchar ((Adapted from: I Only Want To Be With You (by Dusty Springfield - 1963)) ((French Version: À Present, Tu Peux T'en Aller (by Richard Anthony) - 1964)) Composer(s): Mike Hawker - Ivor Raymonde Performer(s): Les Surfs - 1971
Si siempre tu me hubieras dicho la verdad no habría un motivo para regañar y hubiera guardado dentro de mí
la llama del amor que siempre te pedí y no me quisiste dar Ahora te puedes marchar
Hubieramos podido llegar a fundir el ritmo de dos corazones al latir por que no quisiste oir mi voz
ya es tarde para darle una solución yo te quiero olvidar Ahora te puedes marchar
Tu llanto ya no puede mi decisión cambiar porque aun sufre mi corazón por culpa de aquel amor
Pues no te diste cuenta que es malo jugar con el cariño que otro te ha podido dar
Si tu has decidido volver a mí y que te entregue lo que antes te ofrecí comprende es tarde ya ahora te puedes marchar
Tu llanto ya no puede mi decisión cambiar porque aun sufre mi corazón por culpa de aquel amor
Pues no te diste cuenta que es malo jugar con el cariño que otro te ha podido dar
Si tu has decidido volver a mí y que te entregue lo que antes te ofrecí comprende es tarde ya ahora te puedes marchar
Hungry Freaks, Daddy Composer(s): Frank Zappa Performer(s): Frank Zappa
Mr. America, walk on by your schools that do not teach Mr. America, walk on by the minds that won't be reached Mr. America try to hide the emptiness that's you inside But once you find that the way you lied And all the corny tricks you tried Will not forestall the rising tide of hungry freaks, daddy!
They won't go on four no more Great mid-western hardware store Philosophy that turns away From those who aren't afraid to say what's on their minds The left behinds of the great society
Hungry freaks, daddy!
Mr. America, walk on by your supermarket dream Mr. America, walk on by the liquor store supreme Mr. America try to hide the product of your savage pride The useful minds that it denied The day you shrugged and stepped aside You saw their clothes, and then you cried "Those hungry freaks, daddy!"
They won't go on four no more Great mid-western hardware store Philosophy that turns away From those who aren't afraid to say what's on their minds The left behinds of the great society

Hungry Eyes Composer(s): Vic Emerson; Paul Young Performer(s): Sad Café
I'm a traveller, I'm a tinker I make my money and I move around It's kind of funny how you tied me down With those hungry eyes You're a lady but you messed up I need your trouble like a hole in the head It's kind of funny how you shoot me dead With those hungry eyes Hungry eyes keep looking at me Hungry eyes tell me what do they see No there ain't no place that I'd rather be Need those hungry eyes looking at me It's no joke 'cause I'm a no-hope I wish I wasn't 'cause I wanted to be The kind of lover who'd always be With those hungry eyes You're a lady, you're so messed up I seen you hanging round with some of your friends It's kind of funny how they make amends With those hungry eyes Hungry eyes keep looking at me Hungry eyes tell me what do they see No there ain't no place that I'd rather be Need those hungry eyes looking at me Another time another place Another empty space I need to be alive, I need to be You are to me a fire to keep me warm You keep me free from harm If it could only be But there's no chance No chance of romance I want to see you but you've disappeared And I don't ever get to soothe the tears From those hungry eyes You're a lady but it's no good You wanna burn me when you're feeling down Don't understand it, you make me a clown With those hungry eyes Hungry eyes keep looking at me Hungry eyes tell me what do they see No there ain't no place that I'd rather be Need those hungry eyes looking at me I need those hungry eyes, I need those Hungry eyes keep looking at me Hungry eyes tell me what do they see No there ain't no place that I'd rather be Need those hungry eyes looking at me

Hung Up On A Dream Composer(s): Rod Argent Performer(s): The Zombies; Chrysanthemums; Fastbacks
Well I remember yesterday Just drifting slowly through a crowded street With neon darkness shimmering through the haze A sea of faces rippling in the heat And from that nameless changing crowd A sweet vibration seemed to fill the air I stood astounded staring hard At men with flowers resting in their hair...
A sweet confusion filled my mind Until I woke up only finding everything was just a dream A dream unusual of its kind That gave me peace and blew my mind And now I'm hung up on a dream...
They spoke with soft persuading words About a living creed of gentle love And turned the arm to sounds unheard And showed me strangest clouded sights above Which gentle touched my aching mind And soothed the wanderings of my troubled brain Sometimes I think I'll never find Such purity and peace of mind again...
