Ooh, let's go Steve walks warily down the street With the brim pulled way down low Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, hey, are you ready for this Are you hangin' on the edge of your seat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat - yeah
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone and another one gone Another one bites the dust, eh Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust
How do you think I'm going to get along Without you when you're gone You took me for everything that I had And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy? Are you satisfied? How long can you stand the heat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat Look out
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone and another one gone Another one bites the dust, eh Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust
Hey Oh take it Bites the dust - bite the dust hey Hey Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust, ow Another one bites the dust, hey hey Another one bites the dust, heeey Ooh show down
There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man And bring him to the ground You can beat him You can cheat him You can treat him bad and leave him When he's down, yeah But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you I'm standing on my own two feet Out of the doorway the bullets rip Repeating to the sound of the beat Oh yeah
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone and another one gone Another one bites the dust, yeah Hey, I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust Shoot out Hey, alright

C´mon latino a bailar esta cumbia es la clicka que tu alma inunda juro que nunca he comido un ladrillo porque soy cruza de perra, de potrillo
No tengo historia en conversar con tus piernas siempre que ellas me muestran su belleza tengo un terreno en la re-a-leza tengo la gloria, no he besado a la reina
Por que al decir no va mas me entregas un lugar Donde respirar, es elemental yea, si el cosmos es muerte no quiero hacer el equivalente a un alma que esta viva pero solo por suerte...
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust and another one bites and another one bites Another one bites the dust
Si me ves caminando no me detengas no me interesa lo que quieras que sepa Llevo tatuada la vida doblada de vidas, partidas esperando el alba y nunca aparecio cielo se cerraba cada vez que sueñan con mi gente era enterrada
un angel de luz me guia por el camino dejo caer en el roño destino destruir al mito de que tu eras la reina no aspiro a ser esclavo de esa mierda juro que nunca he comido un ladrillo soy la pared mas metal que tu has visto
nunca he sufrido algo de tu castigo puedo volar con solo comer higos (bueno polaco todo comprendido) asi soy yo, no le pido nada al olmo no por eso te digo que otro muerde el polvo
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust and another one bites and another one bites Another one bites the dust
Despierto de un mal sueño donde yo era peor quedando en tu culo subiendome al monton
de mujeres, yeah, todas para mi desnudas en mi cama y que aparezca al fin!
Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust and another one bites and another one bites Another one bites the dust
Dear John
Composer(s): Aubry Gass - Tex Ritter
Performer(s): Hank Williams
Well when I woke up this mornin' There was a note upon my door Said don't make me no coffee Babe 'cause I won't be back no more And that's all she wrote, Dear John I've sent your saddle home
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale Daniel in the lion's den But I know a guy that didn't try to get along And he won't get a chance again And that's all she wrote, Dear John I've fetched your saddle home
Now she didn't forward no address Nor she didn't say goodbye All she said was if you get blue Just hang your little head and cry And that's all she wrote, Dear John I've sent your saddle home
Now my gal's short and stubby She's strong as she can be But if that little old gal of mine Ever get's a-hold of me That's all she wrote, Dear John I've sent your saddle home
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale Daniel in the lion's den But I know a man that didn't try to get along And he won't get a chance again And that's all she wrote, Dear John I've fetched your saddle home
Now I went down to the bank this morning The cashier said with a grin I feel so sorry for you Hank But your wife has done been in And that's all she wrote, Dear John I've sent your saddle home
Nummer Eén Composer(s): Walter Grootaers - Imants Performer(s): De Kreuners
Ik wou altijd al nummer 1 zijn Maar er aan denken alleen al deed zon pijn Maar nu, nu kom ik er aan Nu is er de chip en word ik nummer 1 Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Vreemde talen waren altijd een probleem Dank zij dat ding worden zij nu mijn embleem Nu is het dans la poche Nu is er de chip en word ik nummer 1 Dankzij de chip word ik nummer 1
Mijn IQ is beneden alle peil Een chip kost geld maar het geeft je dan ook stijl Nu stijgt mijn geld ten top Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1 Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Chip maak me vrij Chip maak me blij
Mijn geheugen was altijd één grote zeef Elektronica zet het weer op safe Nu, nu kom ik er aan Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1 Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Heel de toekomst die is nu voor mij Want het verleden dat is allang voorbij Nu gaat alles als vanzelf Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1 Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Dear Hearts And Gentle People
Composer(s): Bob Hilliard - Sammy Fain
Performer(s): Dinah Shore
I love those dear hearts and gentle people Who live in my home town Because those dear hearts and gentle people Will never ever let you down
They read the good Book from Fri' till Monday That's how the weekend goes I've got a dream house I'll build there one day With picket fence and ramblin' rose
I feel so welcome each time that I return That my happy heart keeps laughin' like a clown I love the dear hearts and gentle people Who live and love in my home town
There's a place I'd like to go and it's Batten, Idaho Where your friendly neighbors smile and say "Hello" It's a pleasure and a treat to meander down the street That's why I want the whole wide world to know
I love those dear hearts and gentle people Who live in my home town Because those dear hearts and gentle people Will never ever let you down

Je ne sais pas si vous êtes comme moi Mais chaque fois ça me met en joie D'écouter jouer sur un crin-crin Un vieil air du folklore américain
Aussitôt je me vois déjà Au fin fond de l'Arizona Affublée d'un grand chapeau Et grattant sur un vieux banjo
Woh Ring ding ding
L'Amérique ça me fait rêver Et pourtant je n'y suis jamais allée Mais je connais tous les refrains Tous les airs du folklore américain
Et je sais qu'un jour viendra Où j'irai faire un tour là bas Pour pouvoir danser aussi Comme les filles du Tennessee
Woh Ring ding ding
Si un jour un garçon me plaît Les premiers temps je lui demanderai Si comme moi il aime bien Les vieux airs du folklore américain
S'il dit oui c'est merveilleux Nous pourrons rêver tous les deux Qu'on se promène dans la nuit Sous les étoiles de la Virginie
Woh Ring ding ding
Et plus tard si nous nous marions C'est pas Venise que nous choisirons Car les gondoles ça ne vaut rien Pour les airs du folklore américain
Je voudrais tellement qu'il soit Aussi sentimental que moi Au bord du Mississipi Nous pourrions passer notre vie
Woh Ring ding ding Ring ding ding car j'aime bien Le folklore américain Ring ding ding car j'aime bien Le folklore américain Ring ding ding car j'aime bien Le folklore américain Ring ding ding car j'aime bien Le folklore américain
Dear Elaine Composer(s): Roy Wood Performer(s): Roy Wood
My dear Elaine, may I see you again? For I've loved you and I hope to be forgiven It's been a cold night How I long to see the light To have you there, to feel your hair
Dear Elaine, will it still be the same? From the gateway to your arms I am forbidden It's been a cold night Need the love that burns so bright To have you there, to feel your hair
Thoughts that once remained discreet Fall like servants at your feet Ah ah ah
Come here, Elaine, please attend to the pain Please relieve the darkened clouds of evening Prayers I could say How you swept them all away I can't believe you chose to leave
God that wears a sallow face Seems to put me in my place Ah ah ah
Dear Elaine, will it still be the same? Now the house of spirit crumbles For your love wears many gowns Love has risen, it has stumbled Dear Elaine, why should you wish to leave?
Dear Elaine, may I see you again For I've loved you and I hope to be forgiven It's been a cold night How I long to see the light To have you there, to feel your hair Dear Elaine
Another Nail In My Heart Composer(s): Chris Difford - Glenn Tilbrook Performer(s): Squeeze
The case was pulled from under the bed She made a call to a sympathetic friend And made arrangements
The door was closed, there was a note I couldn't be bothered Maybe I'll choke, no more engagements
With "where-have-you-beens?" And far away frowns Trying to be good by not being 'round And here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart
That stupid old bug That kills only love I want to be good Is that not enough?
So play me the song That makes it so tough Another nail for my heart Then play me the song That makes it so tough Another nail for my heart
I had excuses, those little boy lies That she computed by watching my eyes And told me firmly
She couldn't stand it, I'm bad on her heart She dropped her make-up and I found the bar Now it concerns me
I've had a bad time Now love is resigned I've been such a fool I've loved and goodbyed
So here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart And here in the bar The piano man's found Another nail for my heart
Dear Doctor
((Danish Version: Kære Doktor (Lars Lilholt Band) - 2008))
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1968
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart It's sleepin, it's a beatin' Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it Right there in that jar?
Oh help me, please mama, I'm sick'ning It's today that's the day of the plunge Oh the gal I'm to marry Is a bow-legged sow I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge
"Don't ya worry, get dressed," cried my mother As she plied me with bourbon so sour Pull your socks up, put your suit on Comb your long hair down, For you will be wed in the hour
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart I'm sleepin, it's a beatin' Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it Right there in that jar?
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged There's a pain where there once was a heart It's sleepin, it's a beatin' Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it Right there in that jar?
I was tremblin', as I put on my jacket It had creases as sharp as a knife I put the ring in my pocket But there was a note And my heart it jumped into my mouth
It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you. But I have no courage to speak to your face But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou There be no wedding today"
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged You can put back my heart in its hole Oh mama, I'm cryin' Tears of relief And my pulse is now under control

Another Meaning Composer(s): Joe Egan Performer(s): Gerry Rafferty & Stealers Wheel
And when I take a look around me I wonder how the sun's so sure He knows the way
And why he doesn't stray And if he spends the day Looking for another meaning
Still don't know what I really believe in Aha! Will someone please put on the light Make me feel all right I've searched my head all night Looking for another meaning
I've tried so hard to find What I had on my mind When I had no axe to grind And everything was all right All right! All right!
And it looks like everyday Gets a little bit harder For me Me Me Me

Another Man's Woman Composer(s): Rick Davies - Roger Hodgson Performer(s): Supertramp
If there's no way of knowing where's the answer You should know if you need me by now Tell me how
You saw me in the first place Who d'you think I am How can you be so two-faced And tell me where I stand Yeah, we've been here once before I see you by the door You said you knew an all night party Yeah, you know you just can't lose All you have to do is choose Let me in on where your heart is
You ain't nothing but another man's woman Living on another man's land At night I hear a hound dog calling Calling me a cheating man I'll tell you something, I need good loving But you don't understand At night I see your cannonball coming To blow me to the promised land
If there's no way of showing where your love lies Is it me? Is it him? Or no-one? What will be done?
About the mess you made me Oh don't you give a damn You're gonna drive me crazy It's more than I can stand 'Round and 'round we always go First it's yes and then it's no Oh whatever keeps me staying? I'm so helpless, can't you see? Did you cast a spell on me Say you love me please, I'm praying
You ain't nothing but another man's woman Living on another man's land At night I hear a hound dog calling Calling me a cheating man I'll tell you something, I need good loving But you don't understand At night I see your cannonball coming To blow me to the promised land

Another Lullaby Composer(s): Jimmy Webb Performer(s): Art Garfunkel
Close your eyes my pretty child, though the night is dark and the wind is wild I will stand beside your bed, tonight there is nothing you need fear or dread You can sleep now, go to sleep, the rain falls and the windows weep I'm standing by to sing a lullaby
Close your eyes my sister fair, though the snow is falling and the trees are bare And I will hold you by the hand, tonight there is nothing you need try to understand You can sleep now, go to sleep The daytime's dying and the nighttime's so deep I'm standing by to sing a lullaby
Close your eyes my mother wise when the waves are angry and the north train cries I stopped those ghosts outside your door, Mama, don't worry about those ghosts no more You can sleep now, go to sleep, tomorrow comes but it will keep I'm standing by to sing a lullaby, another lullaby, another lullaby, another lullaby
Deal
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter
First release by: Grateful Dead - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
Since it costs a lot to win, and even more to lose You and me are bound to spend some time wondrin' what to choose Goes to show, you don't ever know Watch each card you play and play it slow Wait until that deal come round Don't you let that deal go down, no, no
I been gamblin' hereabouts for ten good solid years If I told you all that went down it would burn off both of your ears Goes to show you don't ever know Watch each card you play and play it slow Wait until that deal come round Don't you let that deal go down, no, no
Since you poured the wine for me and tightened up my shoes I hate to leave you sittin' there, composin' lonesome blues Goes to show you don't ever know Watch each card you play and play it slow Wait until that deal come round, don't you let that deal go down
Wait until that deal come round, don't you let that deal go down Wait until that deal come round, don't you let that deal go down Don't you let that deal go down, don't you let that deal go down
