    Watching The Detectives
    Composer(s): Elvis Costello
    Performer(s): Elvis Costello;
    and various other artists



    Nice girls, not one with a defect
    cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct
    Red dogs under illegal legs
    She looks so good that he gets down and begs
    She is watching the detectives, ooh - "he's so cute"
    She is watching the detectives when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
    They beat him up until the tear-drops start
    But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart

    Long shot of that jumping sign
    Visible shivers running down my spine
    Cut the baby taking off her clothes
    Close-up of the sign that says "We never close"
    You snatch a tune, you match a cigarrette
    She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet

    I don't know how much more of this I can take
    She filing her finger nails while they're dragging the lake
    She is . . .

    You think you're alone until you realize you're in it
    Now your fear is here to stay
    Love is here for a visit
    They call is instant justice when it's past the legal limit
    Someone's scratching at the window
    I wonder who is it?
    The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
    who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance
    Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
    it only took my little fingers to blow you away

    Just like watching the detectives
    Don't get cute
    It's just like watching the detectives
    I get so angry when the tear-drops start
    but he can't be wounded cause he's got no heart
    Watching the detectives
    It's just like watching the detectives
    Watching the detectives
    Watching the detectives

    Composer(s): Tim Rice - Alan Menken - Jan Derk Beck - Johnny Kraaijkamp Jr.
    Performer(s): Garry Hagger & Sophia - 1998



    Aladdin:
    Onze wereld is mooi, spannend, schitterend, stralend
    Het is een wereld waarin je al je zorgen snel vergeet
    Ik maak je horizon breed
    toon je wonder na wonder
    Alles even bijzonder op een Perzisch toverkleed
    Vlieg met me mee
    Van nu af zijn we beide vrij
    Niemand die ons gebied mag wel mag niet
    Of zegt dat wij maar dromen

    Jasmine:
    Vlieg met je mee
    het is of ik door de ruimte glij
    Wij staan nu samen in een nieuw begin
    Een nieuwe wereld wacht op jou en mij

    Aladdin:
    Een nieuwe wereld wacht op jou en mij

    Jasmine:
    Eindelijk helemaal vrij
    Wie had dat durven denken
    Zweven, tuimelen en zwenken
    Al die ruimte voor jou en mij
    Vlieg met je mee

    Aladdin:
    Geef je ogen de kost

    Jasmine:
    Hoe is dit alles ooit ontstaan

    Aladdin:
    Het is adembenemend

    Jasmine:
    Ik ben net een meteoor ik schiet maar door
    Het is nou telaat om nu nog terug te gaan

    Aladdin:
    Een nieuw begin

    Jasmine:
    Alles even subliem

    Aladdin:
    Mijn hart is vol van geluk

    Jasmine:
    Het is net of we dromen

    Samen:
    Wij staan nu midden in een nieuw begin
    deze wereld deel ik het liefst met jou

    Aladdin:
    Een nieuw begin

    Jasmine:
    Een nieuw begin

    Aladdin:
    Wij zijn nu vrij

    Jasmine:
    Wij zijn nu vrij

    Aladdin:
    Wij staan nu in

    Jasmine:
    Een nieuw begin

    Samen:
    Voor jou en mij

    Watching The Clothes
    Composer(s): Chrissie Hynde
    Performer(s): The Pretenders



    Oh, Saturday night
    Mmm, everyone's having fun
    I'm at the laundromat
    Trying to get my washing done
    Like I've done before
    Time and time again
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Another week sees its end
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Oh, I've been working hard
    Mmm, trying to make some money
    Would you like sour cream
    On your potato, honey
    I've been kissing ass
    Trying to keep clean
    Serving the middle class
    Yeah, it's a clean routine
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    The dirty whites
    Mmm, getting whiter
    The dirty colors
    Getting brighter
    The dirty delicates
    Do the final rinse
    There goes my Saturday night
    I go without a fight
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round
    Watching the clothes go 'round

    Whole Lotta Things To Sing About
    Composer(s): Ben Peters
    Performer(s): Charley Pride



    I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
    I've gotta whole lotta things to say
    Like I love you and I need you
    Every night and day

    I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
    I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
    And I want you here beside me
    Every step of the way

    I was lonely as anyone could ever be
    'Til you came along and gave your love to me
    Now that empty world that you just walked into
    Is filled with sunshine and music and the song is you

    I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
    I've gotta whole lotta things to say
    Like I love you and I need you
    Every night and day

    I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
    I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
    And I want you here beside me
    Every step of the way

    People wonder just what has happened to me
    They say I'm not at all the way I used to be
    They don't realize I've just begun to live
    And I'm wrapped up completely in all the love you give

    I've got a whole lot of things to sing about
    I've gotta whole lotta things to say
    Like I love you and I need you
    Every night and day

    I've gotta a whole lot of things I wanna do
    I've gotta a whole lotta dreams to dream
    And I want you here beside me
    Every step of the way...

    Watching Scotty Grow
    Composer(s): Mac Davis
    Performer(s): Mac Davis;
    and various other artists



    There he sits with a pen and a yellow pad
    He's a handsome lad
    That's my boy

    B-R-L-F-Q spells Mom and Dad
    That ain't too bad
    That's my boy

    You can have your TV and your nightclubs
    You can have your drive-in picture shows
    I'll sit here and drink a beer and listen to the radio
    Bidin' my time and and watching Scotty grow

    Makin' castles out of building blocks
    And a cardboard box
    That's my boy

    Mickey Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock
    Well, that's quite a shock
    But that's my boy

    In four short years I've gone from rags to riches
    But what I did before that I don't know
    Well you can let it rain on my windowpane, I got my own rainbow
    And we're just sittin' here shinin' watching Scotty grow

    Up on daddy's shoulders and off to bed
    Old sleepy head
    That's my boy

    Got to have a drink of water and a story read
    An old teddy bear named Fred
    That's my boy

    Well, what's that your say Momma, come on and keep your feet warm
    Well save me a place, I'll be there in a minute or so
    I'll think I'll stay right here and say a little prayer before I go
    'Cause me and God are watching Scotty grow
    Me and God watching are Scotty grow

    Watching My Past Go By

    Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



    I'm sitting here alone
    So many years have gone
    And yet it seems like only yesterday
    That you were by my side
    We laughed dear and we cried
    Those memories refused to go away

    There's memories that always bring me sorrow
    And memories I'll treasure till I die
    No matter what they bring
    I wouldn't change a thing
    I'm sitting here Watching My Past Go By

    Ah here’s Leon

    There's smiling eyes of blue
    Would love light shining through
    Then like a flash those eyes seem strange and cold
    The picture that I see is only meant for me
    Just memories I’ve locked within my soul

    There's memories that always bring me sorrow
    And memories I'll treasure till I die
    No matter what they bring
    I wouldn't change a thing
    I'm sitting here Watchin' My Past Go By

    Performer(s): Harry Connick Jr.
    and multiple other artists



    I remember the days
    of just keeping time
    of hanging around in sleepy towns, forever
    Back roads empty for miles
    well you cant have a dream
    and cut it to fit
    but when I saw you, I knew
    we go together, like a wink and a smile
    Leave your old jallopy
    by the railroad track
    we'll get a hip, double dip, tip toppy, 2 seat pontiac
    So you can rev her up
    don't go slow
    It's only green lights and alright
    let's go together with a wink and a smile

    Give me a wink and a smile

    We go together like a wink and a smile
    Now my heart is music
    such a simple song
    singing again, the notes never end
    this is where I belong
    Just the sound of your voice
    the light in your eyes
    Your so far away from yesterday
    Together, with a wink and a smile
    We go together, like a wink and a smile

    Watchin' Joey Glow
    Composer(s): Steve Goodman; Sean Kelly
    Performer(s): Steve Goodman



    Down here in the shelter, we've got everything we need
    Mom put up her peach preserves
    Pa's got a book to read
    Sister knits some bandages, and we turn the lights down low
    And play some Scrabble, watching Joey glow

    At breakfast Mom hands Joe the bread, and he turns it into toast
    Last night he hugged a leg of lamb, and soon we had a roast
    You should see him heat the coffee up when he stirs it with his toe
    We all get hungry, watching Joey glow

    You have to wear dark glasses if you look at him a while
    Or he'll fry your little eyes out with his incandescant smile

    At Chistmastime, it sure felt strange, but it was great to see
    The way we decorated Joe as if he was our tree
    And his star was shining brightly underneath the mistletoe
    So we blew him kisses, watching Joey glow

    I hope the world's not over, for my sake and for his
    I'd love for everyone to know how brilliant Joey is

    We've been down here for six months now, and we're proud to be alive
    We owe it to America to sit here and survive
    So we listen to the static on the short wave radio
    And count the shock waves, watching Joey glow

    Cold, no I won't believe your heart is cold
    Maybe just afraid to be broken again

    Let someone with a deep love to give
    Give that deep love to you
    And what magic you'll see

    Let someone with a deep love to give
    Give that deep love to you
    And what magic you'll see

    Let someone give his heart
    Someone who cares like me

    Let someone give his heart
    Someone who cares like me

    Whistling Tune
    Composer(s): Sherman Edwards - Hal David
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    Did you ever notice when the sun goes down
    Out of nowhere comes a strange and pretty sound
    It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
    If you listen you can hear it in the breeze
    Specially when the breeze is drifting through the trees

    It's a whistling tune for walking in the night
    And the murmuring waters sing the song
    The echoing mountains hum along
    The whispering valleys fill the air
    With a whistling tune our hearts can share

    It's so wonderful to walk beneath the moon
    Listening to old mother nature's favorite tune
    It's a whistling tune for walking in the night

    Up in the morning watch the north wind rise
    Bringin' fire down from the skies
    Hey, we got a long way to go
    So keep on lovin' and make it slow
    chorus:
    We're goin' home
    Won't be long
    Hearing my song
    That lovin' you ain't never done no wrong
    Well, night time falls like the crack of doom
    Fills the sky with a shinin' moon
    Silver siren just got to please
    Well, fuel me with lovin' down in my knees
    chorus
    Well, babe be mine one more time
    Run your hand down my spine
    If you say we've got to go
    Take some time for just one more
    Well, up in the morning watch the north wind rise
    Bringin' fire down from the skies
    Hey, we got a long way to go
    So keep on lovin' and make it slow

    Well, babe be mine one more time
    Run your hand down my spine

    Well Respected Man
    ((French Version: Un Jeune Homme Bien (by Petula Clark))
    Composer(s): Ray Davies
    Performer(s): The Kinks
    and multiple other artists



    'Cause he gets up in the morning
    And he goes to work at nine
    And he comes back home at five-thirty
    Gets the same train every time
    'Cause his world is built 'round punctuality
    It never fails
    And he's oh, so good
    And he's oh, so fine
    And he's oh, so healthy
    In his body and his mind
    He's a well respected man about town
    Doing the best things so conservatively
    And his mother goes to meetings
    While his father pulls the maid
    And she stirs the tea with councilors
    While discussing foreign trade
    And she passes looks, as well as bills
    At every suave young man
    'Cause he's oh, so good
    And he's oh, so fine
    And he's oh, so healthy
    In his body and his mind
    He's a well respected man about town
    Doing the best things so conservatively
    And he likes his own backyard
    And he likes his fags the best
    'Cause he's better than the rest
    And his own sweat smells the best
    And he hopes to grab his father's loot
    When Pater passes on
    'Cause he's oh, so good
    And he's oh, so fine
    And he's oh, so healthy
    In his body and his mind
    He's a well respected man about town
    Doing the best things so conservatively
    And he plays at stocks and shares
    And he goes to the Regatta
    And he adores the girl next door
    'Cause he's dying to get at her
    But his mother knows the best about
    The matrimonial stakes
    'Cause he's oh, so good
    And he's oh, so fine
    And he's oh, so healthy
    In his body and his mind
    He's a well respected man about town
    Doing the best things so conservatively

    Performer(s): Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons



    [Watch the flowers grow, watch 'em grow]
    Did you ever see a flower grow?
    If you did then you would surely know
    Love is like the flowers
    Takes a lot of hours
    If you really want to know
    Watch the flowers grow

    Listen to my thoughts and take a ride
    I shall give you all you've been denied
    First you gotta slow down
    Listen to my sweet sound
    If you really want to know
    Watch the flowers grow

    Over the mountain there's a sweet meadow
    A breeze is blowin', so take my hand and we can
    Watch the flowers grow

    Let me take you where the flowers grow
    Let me be the one who told you so
    I'll love you forever,
    I will leave you never
    Baby let's go,
    Watch the flowers grow.

    [Watch the flowers grow, watch 'em grow]

    Composer(s): Donovan
    Performer(s): Donovan



    Tonight my life is heavy, I'm weak and down at heel
    The prisoner in the dungeon will know just how I feel
    I'm a well known has-been, a well known has-been
    I've got a brand on me
    When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
    Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
    How sad my disposition, how long can it I bear?
    How deep my melancholy, can anybody care?
    For the well known has-been, the well known has-been
    I've got a brand on me, yeah
    When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
    Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
    Well known has-been
    Well known has-been
    Well known has-been, ooh, ooh, ooh
    I pretend I'm unaffected by the chains that bear me down
    And when only those who love me can see behind the frown
    I'm the well known has-been, the well known has-been
    I got a brand on me
    When I look at my tomorrows, sorrow's all I see
    Sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see, sorrow's all I see
    >From these broken days of anguish, some day soon I'm gonna rise
    I'm gonna raise my head to Heaven, I'm gonna fly the starry skies
    And the well known has-been, the well known has-been
    I'll lose the brand on me, yeah
    Today's all I see, today's all I see, today's all I see

    Watch Me
    Composer(s): Gary Burr; Tom Shapiro
    Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan



    The more I needed, the less you gave
    I guess you thought that it worked that way
    You never would listen
    And now that I'm leaving
    You're not believing
    A word I say

    (Chorus)
    Oh, If you think I won't go
    Watch me
    Oh, watch me prove you wrong today
    You don't even know you've lost me
    You think I'd always stay
    Oh, just watch me walk away

    Don't tell me that it can't be done
    That the world is colder without someone
    Yeah, it might get lonely
    It might get crazy
    But this time baby, I'm as good as gone

    (Repeat chorus)

    Cab on the street
    Hand on the door
    Bag at my feet
    Need I say more

    Oh watch me

    You don't even know you've lost me
    You think I'd always stay
    Oh, just watch me walk away
    Oh, just watch me walk away

    (Repeat chorus)

    Yeah, if you think I won't go
    Watch me
    Oh Watch me proove you wrong today
    You don't even know you lost me
    You think I'd always stay
    Oh, just watch me walk away
    Oh, just watch me walk away

    A Weekend In The Country
    From the film "The Barkleys Of Broadway" (1949)
    Composer(s): Harry Warren - Ira Gershwin
    Performer(s): Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Oscar Levant



    (Josh:) With golf and tennis 'round you
    And no cares to hound you
    (Dinah:) When Mother Nature beckons, who can decline?
    (Ezra:) Till Mother Nature vetoes
    The bees and mosquitoes
    Mother Nature is no mother of mine!
    (Josh & Dinah:) From Saturday night to Monday morn
    There's always joy ahead
    (Ezra:) From Saturday night to Monday morn
    I wish that I were dead!

    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
    Never will let you down
    (Ezra:) You'll pardon my effront'ry
    I'd rather spend it in town
    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
    Healthy and full of sport
    (Dinah:) And then it isn't small potatoes
    (Josh:) When you get those fresh tomatoes
    (Ezra:) I've a list of fresh tomatoes
    Sueing me now in court!

    (Dinah:) Ah, gimme the milk from the moo cow
    (Josh:) Of corn right from the field I'm fond
    (Ezra:) In town I'd be splurgin'
    On Venison and Sturgeon
    Bestride a beautiful blonde
    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend gets you sunburned
    Vitamin A you win
    (Ezra:) I'd rather get back unburned
    With my original skin
    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
    Glorious, there's no doubt
    (Ezra:) A weekend in the country
    What's the next train out?

    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
    Trees in the orchard call
    (Ezra:) When you've examined one tree
    Then you've examined them all
    (Josh & Dinah:) A weekend in the country
    Happily we endorse
    (Dinah:) Come get your share of nature's bounty
    (Josh:) Ride the trail around the county
    (Ezra:) I am no Canadian mounty
    Why do I need a horse?

    (Dinah:) Hark, hark to the song of the bull frog
    (Josh:) At dawn, you'll rise up with the lark
    (Ezra:) When roosters will riot
    I'd much prefer the quiet
    Of Forty-Second and Park
    (Josh & Dinah:) Get peppy and alivey
    Don't be a city poke!
    (Ezra:) I once got poison ivy
    (Dinah:) Will you try for poison oak?
    (Josh:) A weekend in the country
    (Dinah:) Dickey-bird's overhead
    (Ezra:) A weekend in the country
    I should have stayed in bed!

    Watch Her Ride
    Composer(s): Paul Kantner
    Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



    I didn't know you were the one for me
    I couldn't see
    But you were waiting
    For someone to come along to help you out to sing your song
    And I was changing
    All I see is you
    All I feel is you for me!

    And I would really like to watch you ride
    And always feel you by my side
    I would really like to watch you ride
    All on me!

    I go stumbling to the sky, and I seem to fly so high
    I see you, I feel you
    You have a way of walking 'round your feet they never touch the ground
    And you are shining
    All I see is you
    All I feel is you for me!

    Times don't change
    Times don't ever change for me
    And I know that you could be the only thing in my world
    The only thing that my mind would find
    For love, for love and peace of mind, for me, for me
    Oh

    Your Shadow in the morning sun becomes my fun, and we can say
    "I love you, love you"
    My morning shines on silver beaches, your light flashes to the reaches
    Of my mind, my mind, of
    My mind, and my mind it comes alive with you
    It's all that I can do to sit here and let you blow my mind
    Ah! My mind
    You're so fine, in my mind you're so fine, in my mind you're so fine
    You're so fine, in my mind, you're so fine in mind

    A Wedding In Cherokee County
    Composer(s): Randy Newman
    First release by: Randy Newman - 1974



    There she is sitting there
    Out behind the smoke house in her rocking chair
    She don't do nothin'
    She don't say nothin'
    She don't feel nothin'
    She don't know nothin'
    Maybe she's crazy I don't know
    But maybe that's why I love her so

    Her papa was a midget
    Her mama was a whore
    Her grandad was a newsboy 'til he was eighty four
    Man don't you think I know she hates me
    Man don't you think I know that she's no good
    If she knew how she'd be unfaithful to me
    I think she'd kill me if she could
    Maybe she's crazy I don't know
    But maybe that's why I love her so

    I'm not afraid of the greywolf
    Who stalks through our forest at dawn
    As long as I have her beside me
    I have the strength to carry on

    Today we will be married
    And all the freaks that she knows will be there
    And all the people from the village will be there
    To congratulate us
    I will carry her across the threshold
    I will make dim the light
    I will attempt to spend my love within her
    But though I try with all my might
    She will laugh at my mighty sword
    She will laugh at my mighty sword
    Why must everybody laugh at my mighty sword?
    Lord, help me if you will
    Maybe we're both crazy, I don't know
    Maybe that's why I love her so

    Wat Voor Een Gek Denk Je Dat Ik Ben
    English Title: What Kind Of Fool (Do You Think I Am)
    Composer(s): Ray Whitley; N. Byl
    Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



    Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
    Vraag niet dat ik aan je hielen wen
    Gisteren was ik nog je favoriet
    Nu doe je reeds of je mij niet ziet

    Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
    Wat voor een gek denk je dat hier staat
    Omdat hij dwaze figuren slaat
    Als hij moet dansen als je fuift
    En dan lach je hem nog vierkant uit

    Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
    Dacht dat ik je topper was
    Nummer 1 van kop tot teen
    Dan vloog ik naar bene

    Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
    Vraag niet dat ik aan je hielen wen
    Gisteren was ik nog je favoriet
    Nu doe je reeds of je mij niet ziet

    Wat voor een gek denk je dat ik ben
    (verschillende malen)
