    Two Eyes
    Composer(s): Steele - Bart - Pratt
    Performer(s): Tommy Steele and The Steelmen



    I got two eyes in the corner
    Two eyes looking at me
    Don't hide in the corner
    Bring those two eyes closer closer
    Two arms wanna hold you
    Two lips wanna kiss kiss
    Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
    Two eyes!

    Tantalizing, hypnotizing
    Looking through me, speeking to me
    Fascinating, captivating
    Peepers keep me waiting

    I got two eyes in the corner
    Two eyes looking at me
    Don't hide in the corner
    Bring those two eyes closer closer
    Two arms wanna hold you
    Two lips wanna kiss kiss
    Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
    Two eyes!

    Dig those linkers, dig those winkers
    Such expression, this impression
    That you're making's got me shaking
    I'm yours for the taking

    I got two eyes in the corner
    Two eyes looking at me
    Don't hide in the corner
    Bring those two eyes closer closer
    Two arms wanna hold you
    Two lips wanna kiss
    Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
    Two eyes!

    Ice Cream For Crow
    Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
    First release by: Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band - 1982



    It's so hot
    Looks like you have three beaks, crow
    The moon's so full
    White hat on a pumpkin
    You know there's something
    The moon was a stone's throw
    Stop the show
    I need to say hello to the crow
    Light the fire piano
    The moon showed up
    And it started to show
    Tonight there would be ice cream
    Ice cream for crow
    Ice cream by night
    Sun cream by day

    Ice cream for crow
    Ice cream by night
    Sun cream by day

    The sun ain't stable
    Ice cream for crow
    Crow pants the scarecrow
    Crow dance ah ho ho
    Crow dance
    A panther
    Scarecrow you answer
    You can hee and haw
    Maugh and scratch
    Ha ha ha
    Ha ha ha
    Boss and toss
    Don't shake my hand
    Give me your claw
    Two tears in a haystack
    Scarecrow get back
    Tonight there will be
    A feather treatment
    Beneath the symbol
    We'll all assemble
    Oh how we'll fly
    Oh how we'll tremble
    Cut the cake
    We'll all get well
    Turn up the speakers
    Hop flop squawk
    It's a keeper
    Ice cream for show
    Oh ice cream for crow
    Now now that's it
    Now you can go

    Kiss And Say Goodbye
    Composer(s): Winfred Lovett
    Performer(s): The Manhattans;
    and various other artists



    This has got to be the saddest day of my life
    I called you here today for a bit of bad news
    I won’t be able to see you anymore
    Because of my obligations and the ties that you have
    We’ve been meeting here every day
    And since this is our last day together
    I wanna hold you just one more time
    When you turn and walk away don’t look back
    I want to remember you just like this
    Let’s just kiss and say goodbye

    I had to meet you here today
    There’s just so many things to say
    Please don’t stop me till I’m through
    This is something I hate to do

    We’ve been meeting here so long
    I guess what begun, oh, is wrong
    Please, darling, don’t you cry
    Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye)

    Many months have passed us by (I’m gonna miss you)
    I’m gonna miss you, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
    I’ve got ties and so do you
    I just think this is the thing to do

    It’s gonna hurt me, I can’t lie
    Maybe you’ll meet, you’ll meet another guy
    Understand me, won’t you try, try, try, try, try, try, try
    Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye)

    Mmm…mmm…mmm… (I’m gonna miss you)

    I’m gonna miss you, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
    Understand me, won’t you try (I’m gonna miss you)
    It’s gonna hurt me, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
    Take my handkerchief and wipe your eyes (I’m gonna miss you)

    Maybe you will find, you’ll find another guy (I’m gonna miss you)
    Let’s kiss and say goodbye, pretty baby (I’m gonna miss you)
    Please, don’t you cry (I’m gonna miss you)
    Understand me, won’t you try (I’m gonna miss you)

    Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Bye)

    Two Dreams Met
    Performer(s): Mitchell Ayres & Perry Como



    Two dreams met
    They knew of two hearts that were lonely
    That could be so happy
    If only they found romance
    Two dreams met
    They said we must go out and find them
    And then as we tiptoe behind them
    We'll make them dance
    A band was softly playing
    Sweet music filled the air
    "Turn around," my dream kept saying
    I did, and you were there
    Then two hearts met
    A beautiful love affair started
    The dreams winked their eyes and departed
    They knew that their work was done
    For two lonely hearts were one

    Two Dollars In The Jukebox
    Composer(s): Eddie Rabbitt
    Performer(s): Eddie Rabbitt



    I've got two dollars in the jukebox
    Five dollars in a bottle
    Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

    And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
    With heartaches by the dozen
    And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

    Why do I, why do I
    Need to see those blue eyes
    Lookin' at me that way again
    After the way she did me, it's a sin

    How could she, how could she
    Just walk out and leave me
    After all these nights in her arms
    Look where I am

    And I've got two dollars in the jukebox
    Five dollars in a bottle
    Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

    And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
    With heartaches by the dozen
    And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

    I've got two dollars in the jukebox
    Five dollars in a bottle
    Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

    And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
    With heartaches by the dozen
    And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

    and multiple other artists



    Oh!
    I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

    In the land of ice and snows
    Up among the Eskimos
    There's a college known as Ogiwawa!
    You should hear those college boys
    Gee, they make an awful noise
    When they sing an Eskimo tra-la-la!

    They've got a leader, big cheer leader
    Oh, what a guy!
    He's got a frozen face just like an Eskimo Pie!
    When he says, "Come on, let's go!"
    Though it's forty-five below
    This is what the Eskimos all holler

    I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
    Rah! Rah! Rah!
    Tuesdays, Mondays, we all scream for sundaes
    Sis-boom-bah!
    Boola-boola, sarsaparoolla
    If you got chocolate, we'll take vanoola!
    I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
    Rah! Rah! Rah!

    I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
    Rah! Rah! Rah!
    Frosts and malts that are peppered and salted
    Sis-boom-bah!
    Oh, spumoni, oh, cartoni
    And confidentially, we'll take baloney
    I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
    Rah! Rah! Rah!

    Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!

    Sweet summer breeze
    Whispering Trees
    Stars shining softly above

    Roses in bloom
    Wafted perfume
    Sleepy birds dreaming of love

    Safe in your arms
    Far from alarms
    Daylight shall come but in vain...

    Tenderly pressed
    Close to my breast
    Kiss me
    Kiss Me Again

    Composer(s): Al Frisch - Sid Wayne
    First release: Steve Clayton - 1956
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Nothing matters if I am yours
    And you are mine

    Two different words
    We live in two different worlds
    For we've been told
    That a love like ours
    Could never be

    So far apart
    They say we're so far apart
    And that we haven't the right
    To change our destiny

    When will they learn
    That a heart doesn't draw a line
    Nothing matters if I am yours
    And you are mine

    Two different worlds
    We live in two different worlds
    But we will show them
    As we walk together in the sun
    That our two different worlds are one

    When will they learn
    That a heart doesn't draw a line
    Nothing matters if I am yours
    And you are mine

    Two different worlds
    We live in two different worlds
    But we will show them
    As we walk together in the sun
    That our two different worlds are one

    I'm so afraid of mistakes that I made
    Taking every time that I wake
    I feel like a hard-boiled butter man
    So give me a time when the countries will lie
    on the storyline if kind
    Our days are made since the first page
    I've lived every line that you wrote
    Take me down, take me down,
    from the shelf above your head
    So give me a time when the countries will lie
    on the storyline if kind
    And if I live on the shelf like the rest
    And if love bleeds like a sad song
    Please pick-up your camera and use me again
    So give me a time when the countries will lie on the storyline if kind
    Yea
    It's alright now darlin'

    Kiss Me Deadly
    Composer(s): Billy Idol; Tony James
    Performer(s): Generation X;
    Billy Idol; Mutant Monster Beach Party



    The Greyhound's rocking out tonight
    To maximum rockabilly
    When two punks chose to risk the subway
    For a tube to Picadilly
    The Zephrys stir fast gangs for glory
    Another dumb casualty
    Having fun
    In South West six
    Hidden flick knife flicks
    Kiss me deadly, tonight

    Another battle was won and lost
    Down The Bishops End last night
    Spotlights pick the kids in triumph
    With a thousand scarves in flight, see how they run
    Spring from the terraces in black and white
    Young and old into the fight
    Having fun
    In South West Six
    With violence for a fix
    Kiss me deadly, tonight

    Seven o'clock they stand in rank
    For the thirty bus uptown
    And later in a downstairs room
    She pulls her lover down
    In ecstacy but they can't make a sound
    Case her mother might come down
    Having fun
    In South West Six
    Discovers teenage sex
    Kiss me deadly, tonight

    (Instrumental Break)

    The Snooker Hall is empty
    Cause they're all out playing pool
    Hustling down the Fulham Road
    Doing deals with Mr.Cool
    Well They're on the waterfront now instead of being at school
    Too old now, even to dig pinball
    Having fun
    In South West Six
    Having fun
    When a hidden flick knife flicks
    With violence for a fix
    Discovers teenage sex
    Tried shooting up for kicks
    Kiss me deadly
    Kiss me deadly
    Kiss me deadly
    Kiss me
    Kiss me tonight

    Performer(s): The Ventures; The Grass Roots



    Two divided by love
    Can only be one
    And one is a lonely number
    Two divided by love
    Can only be sad
    Can only hurt one another

    Every night your tears come down
    And I know how you're feelin' inside
    Loneliness is no one's friend
    I've been takin' the same kind of ride
    And that just shouldn't be
    If you're still lovin' me
    Come on baby

    Two divided by love
    Can only be one
    And one is a lonely number
    Two divided by love
    Can only be sad
    Can only hurt one another

    I'd by lyin' to myself
    If I said I was gettin' along
    All I do is think of you and I know
    That it's here you belong
    Come on girl make your way
    We can start from today
    Puttin' it back together 'cause

    Two divided by love
    Can only be one
    And one is a lonely number
    Two divided by love
    Can only be sad
    Can only hurt one another

    Take away the rain from a flower
    And the flower just can't grow
    Take away you from me girl
    Out of my mind
    Out of my mind
    Out of my mind
    Out of my mind

    Two divided by love
    Can only be sad
    Can only be broken hearted
    Two divided and blue
    Should take what they had
    And go back to where they started

    Two divided by love
    Can only be one
    And one is a lonely number
    Two divided by love
    Can only be sad
    Can only hurt one another

    Iba Yo Para Una Fiesta
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Victor Jara



    Iba yo para una fiesta
    cuando me paso esta mano
    procuro sacar temprano
    el boleto es lo que cuenta.

    El ruletero protesta
    cuando el boleto me dio
    diciendome de que yo
    me lo pase de inocente
    porque en el medio e’ la gente
    una niña se aflojo

    La niña muy asusta’
    hallo a quien echarle culpa
    y hallo muy buena disculpa
    dandome a mi una mirada
    se puso muy colorada
    cuando yo le dije asi
    señorita por aqui
    que sera lo que ha pasado
    algo se le ha refalado
    del atracon que le di

    La niña puso querella
    y a justicia me llevo
    ella dice que fui yo
    y yo digo que fue ella
    para una niña tan bella
    claro que eso era una ofensa
    el publico bien lo piensa
    y el fiscal me pregunto
    entonces le dije yo
    ella fue la sinverguenza

    Un hermano que tenia
    se dio por muy ofendido
    y como era merecido
    me mando la policia
    despues a mi me decia
    porque te culpan a ti?
    dicen señor que yo fui
    por eso me traen preso
    ella fue la del suceso
    y me echa la culpa a mi

    Al fin la niña despues
    vino y me dio un reempujon
    y yo con justa razon
    otro empujon le pege
    ahi se vino otra vez
    me pego una de patadas
    le aporre’ una bofetada
    y se armo una pelotera
    dijo el juez
    todos pa’ fuera
    a aflojarse por alla

    We choose it, win or lose it
    Love is never quite the same
    I love you, now I've lost you
    Don't feel bad, you're not to blame

    So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry
    All the tears in the world won't change your mind
    There's someone new and she's waiting for you
    Soon your heart will be leaving me behind
    Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile
    Like a friend who just happened to call
    For the last time pretend your are mine
    My darling, kiss me goodbye

    I know now I must go now
    Though my heart wants me to stay
    That girl is your tomorrow
    I belong to yesterday

    So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry
    All the tears in the world won't change your mind
    There's someone new and she's waiting for you
    Soon your heart will be leaving me behind
    Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile
    Like a friend who just happened to call
    For the last time pretend your are mine
    My darling, kiss me goodbye
    My darling, kiss me goodbye

    Performer(s): Kay Starr
    and multiple other artists



    Two brothers on their way
    Two brothers on their way
    Two brothers on their way
    One wore blue, and one wore grey

    One wore blue and one wore grey
    As they marched along the way
    A fife and drum began to play
    All on a beautiful morning

    One was gentle, one was kind
    One was gentle, one was kind
    One came home, one stayed behind
    A cannonball don't pay no mind

    A cannonball don't pay no mind
    Though you're gentle or you're kind
    It don't think of the folks behind
    All on a beautiful morning

    Two girls waiting by the railroad track
    Two girls waiting by the railroad track
    For their darlings to come back
    One wore blue, and one wore black

    One wore blue, and one wore black
    Waiting by the railroad track
    For their darlings to come back
    All on a beautiful morning

    One wore blue, and one wore black
    Waiting by the railroad track
    For their darlings to come back
    All on a beautiful morning

    All on a beautiful morning

    I.O.U.
    Composer(s): Jimmy Dean; Larry Markes
    Performer(s): Jimmy Dean



    Many people look through their wallet or their pocket books and, way down at the bottom
    past the credit cards and baby pictures and so on
    you usually find a little 'ol piece of dog-eared poetry
    I was cleaning out my wallet the other day and ran across a whole bunch of I.O.U's, some of 'em thirty-five years overdue
    And you know the funny thing, all these I.O.U's are owed to one person
    and I kinda felt like that maybe now would be a pretty good time for an accountin'

    Mom, I sure hope you're listenin'

    Sweet lady, I.O.U. for so many things.....
    A lot of services, like nightwatchman for instance.....
    Lyin' awake nights, listenin' for coughs and cries and creakin'
    floorboards.....hah-hah, and me comin' in too late
    Boy, you had the eye of an eagle and the roar of a lion
    But you always had a heart as big as a house

    I.O.U. for services like, uh, short order cook, chef, baker.....
    For makin' sirloin out o' hamburger an' turkey out o' tuna fish
    And big ol' strappin' boys out of leftovers

    I.O.U. for cleanin' services
    The daily scrubbing of face and ears....all work done by hand
    And for the frequent dustin' of a small boy's pants
    To try to make sure that you led a spotless life
    And for washin' and ironin' that no laundry could ever do
    Foy dryin' the tears of childhood
    And ironin' out the problems of growin' up

    I.O.U. for services as a bodyguard
    For protectin' me from the terrors of thunderstorms and nightmares
    Hah, And too many green apples

    And Lord knows, I.O.U. for medical attention
    For nursing me through measles, mumps, bruises
    Bumps, splinters and spring fever
    Oh-oh, let's not forget medical advice....important things like
    "If you keep on scratching that, it'll never get well" or
    "If you cross your eyes, they're gonna stick like that"
    And probably the most important advice of all
    "Boy, you be sure you got on clean underwear, in case you're in an accident"

    And I.O.U. for veterinarian services
    For feeding every lost dog that I dragged home at the end of the rope
    And for healing the pains of puppy love

    And I.O.U. for entertainment.....
    Entertainment that kept the household goin' through some pretty rough times.....
    And for wonderful productions at Christmas, the Fourth of July, Birthdays.....
    And for making make-believe come true.....
    And you did it all on such a limited budget

    I.O.U. for construction work, for building kites and confidence, hopes and dreams an'.....
    Somehow you made them all touch the sky.....
    And for cementin' together a family
    So it would stand the worst kind of shocks and blows.....
    And for layin' down a good strong foundation to build a life on

    I.O.U. for carrier charges.....
    For carryin' me on your books for the necessities of life
    That a growin' boy somehow, well, they just gotta have
    Things like, hah-hah, a pair of high top boots
    With a little pocket on the side for a jack-knife

    And one thing, Mom, I'll never forget....
    When there were two pieces of pie and three hungry people.....
    You were always the one who decided, well, I'm not really that hungry anyhow

    These are just a few of the things for which payment is long overdue..
    The person that I owe 'em to worked very, very cheap....
    She managed by simply doin' without a whole lot o' things that she needed herself....
    My I.O.U's add up to more than I could ever hope to repay
    But you know the nicest thing about it all....
    That I know, that she had marked the entire bill 'Paid In Full'
    For just one kiss and four little words....Mom, I Love You!

    Kiss Me Goodnight, Sergeant-Major
    Composer(s): Art Noell; Don Pelosi
    Performer(s): Arthur Askey;
    Alan Breeze; Vera Lynn; George Formby;
    Len Luscombe; Elsie Carlisle; Chas & Dave



    Private Jones came in one night
    Full of cheer and very bright
    He'd been out all day upon the spree
    He bumped into Sergeant Smeck
    Put his arms around his neck
    And in his ear he whispered tenderly.....

    Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
    Tuck me in my little wooden bed
    We all love you, Sergeant-Major
    When we hear you bawling, "Show a leg!"

    Don't forget to wake me in the morning
    And bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea
    Kiss me goodnight Sergeant-Major
    Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me

    Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
    Tuck me in my little wooden bed
    We all love you, Sergeant-Major
    Even when your neck grows rather red

    Don't forget to wake me in the morning
    And bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea
    Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
    Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me

    Twixt Twelve And Twenty
    Composer(s): Aaron Schroeder - Wally Gold
    Performer(s): Pat Boone; Vincent Lopez



    They say the years twixt twelve and twenty
    Are the years of confusion and doubt

    We all have fears twixt twelve and twenty
    But through love we'll learn what life is all about

    Are we old enough to feel such deep devotion?
    Don't they know love is ageless when it's true?

    There'll be no tears twixt twelve and twenty
    If you just have faith and trust in my love for you

    There'll be no tears twixt twelve and twenty
    If you just have faith and trust in my love for you

    I.G.Y.
    Composer(s): Donald Jay Fagen
    First release by: Donald Fagen - 1982
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Standing tough under stars and stripes
    We can tell
    This dream's in sight
    You've got to admit it
    At this point in time that it's clear
    The future looks bright
    On that train all graphite and glitter
    Undersea by rail
    Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
    Well by seventy-six we'll be A.O.K

    What a beautiful world this will be
    What a glorious time to be free

    Get your ticket to that wheel in Space
    While there's time
    The fix is in
    You'll be a witness to that game of chance in the sky
    You know we've got to win
    Here at home we'll play in the city
    Powered by the sun
    Perfect weather for a streamlined world
    There'll be spandex jackets one for everyone

    What a beautiful world this will be
    What a glorious time to be free

    On that train all graphite and glitter
    Undersea by rail
    Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
    (More leisure for artists everywhere)
    A just machine no make big decisions
    Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision
    We'll be clean when their work is done
    We'll be eternally free and eternally young

    What a beautiful world this will be
    What a glorious time to be free
