Ant Rap Composer(s): Adam Ant - Marco Pirroni Performer(s): Adam & The Ants
Put some wax on the trax and slide on onta here hane hane hane hane hane
hatchets in the corner ears to the ground improve to the groove get down to the sound buttons and bows and bleu blanc rouge all things lively must be used liberté, egalité, aujourd'hui c'est très très très voici l'opportunité nous Incroyables
I got the moves they got the grooves summoned the Gods and they all approved bad vibes akimbo on the shelf bit of a rap thing going for myself this gold on the teeth's no sense at all it only matters when it's on the wall
I'm standing here with my four men let's start that rapping thing again
Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and yours truly in the naughty North and in the sexy South we're all singing I have the mouth in the naughty North and in the sexy South we're all singing I have the mouth I have the mouth
So tired of anarchists looking at me don't need their credibility "destroy," they say, "defy! condemn!" as long as you don't destroy them with twenty years of drugs and drink I thought the time had come to think about standing up and saying that It's tragedy and such old hat
I'm standing here with my four men let's start that rapping thing again
(I got) Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and yours truly in the naughty North and in the sexy South we're all singing I have the mouth in the naughty North and in the sexy South we're all singing I have the mouth I have the mouth
these happy feet are all we need summoned the Gods and they all agreed these feet won't stop they're in such a hurry I knock it on the head and I go for a curry staying sober can be neat get drunk on these here happy feet keep on trying to pin me down "why a title for your sound?" I'm standing here with my four men let's do this rapping thing again
I got Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and yours truly in the naughty North and in the sexy South we're all singing I have the mouth...
and I have the mouth and you have the mouth and they got the mouth
Deeper Still
Composer(s): Beth Nielsen Chapman - David Wilcox
Performer(s): Beth Nielsen Chapman; Harry Chapin; David Wilcox
In the tears you gave to me I found a river to an ocean Concrete sky and a stone cold sea Came to where the emptiness cracked open
Then all my fears came crashing through And met the fire of my sorrow But I found my strength in forgiving you I never even knew how far my heart could go
I live my life beyond each death From the deeper well of trust To know that when there's nothing left You will always have what you gave to love
In this life the love you give Becomes the only lasting treasure So that what you lose will be what you win A well that echoes down too deep to measure
A silver coin rings down that well You can never spend too much A diamond echoes deeper still You will always have what you gave to love You will always have what you gave to love
Deeper In Love Composer(s): Dana Meyers; Wardell Potts Jr.; Dominic Leslie Performer(s): Tavares
Keep fallin deeper in love Keep fallin deeper in love
When it comes to love Ive got to be for real I never hesitate to show just how I feel For too often my hearts been filled with pain And it seems Ill never learn to play the game
Girl, in my deepest thoughts How I wonder if your heart is true There is a chance its not Still I just cant help thinking of you, and I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love with you Keep fallin deeper in love
At times I ask myself just what Im lookin for Girl, I find it all in you and so much more There can be no doubt that youre the one I need Open eyes will see the signs are there to read
Ive got to find a way To break through this dark cloud of indecision My heart says play it safe But Id rather find out what Im missing, so I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love with you Keep fallin deeper in love Sinkin deeper, no matter what I do
Keep fallin deeper in love I wont let love slip through my hands again Keep fallin deeper in love This time Im holdin on to love, woo...hoo...hoo...
Im fallin deeper Fallin deeper
I was so lost in pride So afraid one day Id have to face rejection But now I realize That it hurts more to lock love inside, and I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love with you Keep fallin deeper in love No matter what I do, said I
Keep fallin deeper in love Loves really got me hooked this time Keep fallin deeper in love Im fallin deeper in love, said I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love Keep fallin deeper in love I wont let love slip through my hands again
Keep fallin deeper in love Ooh...hoo...hoo... Keep fallin deeper in love

Deeper and deeper, I'm falling in love with you My life grows sweeter every day There must be something in the things you do That makes me love you in a helpless way You're my joy, my all and all A fountain of love that keeps me falling

Deeper and deeper in love with you Each day gets sweeter and sweeter just being with you
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes Composer(s): Rod McKuen Performer(s): Rod McKuen
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
Come and take my eldest son, show him how to shoot a gun Wipe his eyes if he starts to cry when the bullets fly Give him a rifle, take his hoe, show him a field where he can go To lay his body down and die without asking why
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
Sticks and stones can break your bones; even names can hurt you But the thing that hurts the most is when a man deserts you Dont you think its time to weed the leaders that no longer lead From the people of the land whod like to see their sons again?
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
God if men could only see the lessons taught by history That all the singers of this song cannot right a single wrong Let all men of good will stay in the fields they have to till Feed the mouths they have to fill and cast away their arms
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
Deep Water
Composer(s): Alexander
Performer(s): Grapefruit
Torn apart I sit and wonder think double way and see you Been so long since you been gone and I just want to be near you I'm swimming in the deep water and I really don't think that ought to be
Understand I was the man you wanted to be somebody I could be too and more for you but without you I am no one I'm swimming in the deep water but I really don't think that ought to be
If you want to help someone if you want to safe me come on come on come on come on do it Can you hear me begging you show a man some mercy come on come on come on come on do it
You know your fascination brought me to you your last inclination I'm in deepest deepest deepest deep water I am deep water
You gave me understanding you gave me all and I need your help again I'm in deepest deepest deepest deep water I am - deep water - deep water deep water I am - deep water
A little while ago I went and placed a call To tell this girl I know that she could have it all The wedding, the ring, the whole darn thing I was willing to tie the knot So I called her up, and this is the answer I got
"I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know the whole routine Leave your name and number, and I'll try to get back to you You have 30 seconds to talk to me before you're through"
And I said "Baby let's go get married, I need to hear you're mine I am hanging on, I am hanging on, I am hanging on this line And if I can leave one message before you go to bed I would say to you..."
And the phone went dead
So I stepped out to buy some dog food for the cat Of course she called about three minutes after that Would she be my wife and share my life? Well of course you can write the plot Cause she called me up, and this is the answer she got
"I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know the whole routine Leave your name and number, and I'll try to get back to you You have 30 seconds to talk to me before you're through"
And she said "Baby I got your message, I am answering your call I have thought it out, I have thought it out and I think that, all-in-all If you ask if we can marry, and make it for all time then my answer is..."
and the phone went
"I'm so sorry, you have just reached my answering machine..."
Deep River Woman
Composer(s): Lionel Richie
Performer(s): Lionel Richie; Ballroom Orch.; Ricardo Caliente
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Spent a night in LA
just another chance to see you
just you and I
Wanted you to know
that my playing days are over
'cause all I do is think of you
The writings on the wall
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
I've been out in the world
I guess the fast life had me going
Now all that's changed
Finally made up my mind
'bout the one thing I've been knowing
You're the only girl
I've ever cared for in this world
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Your kind of love girl is forever
Took me a long time to realize
that I've come so far to end up going nowhere
Girl I need you by my side
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love
Deep River Woman
Lord I'm coming home to you
Deep River Woman
Lord I know she's waiting
Just anticipating all my love

Deep Purple Composer(s): Mitchell Parish - Peter de Rose First release by: Paul Whiteman and His Concert Orch. - 1934 Covered by multiple other artists
When the deep purple falls, over sleepy garden walls And the stars begin to flicker in the sky Through the mist of a memory, you wander back to me Breathing my name with a sigh In the still of the night, once again I hold you tight Though you're gone, your love lives on When moonlight beams And as long as my heart will beat, lover, we'll always meet Here in my deep purple dreams
Answer To The Master Composer(s): Steve Clark - Joe Elliot - Rick Savage - Pete Willis Performer(s): Def Leppard
When the night time unfolds And the memories that you hold Bring a light to your eyes Though you know it's disguise When the night turns to day You turn around and say Magic mirror please tell Is this heaven or hell?
Answer to the master Can you look to the sky? Can you live through your lie? Of the thoughts you can't trace Which time can't erase
To a face on the wall Do you often recall What you said on the night When the new full moon was rising? Answer to the master Oh yeah
When the night time unfolds And the memories that you hold Bring a light to your eyes Though you know it's disguise When the night turns to day And you turn around and say Magic mirror please tell Is this heaven or hell?

Performer(s): Neil Diamond; Beth Nielsen Chapman; Ray Grant
Good morning I love you Now that you're here where you belong I want to be the man you need Just tell me you love me Because I need to hear it, too Just let me be the one you carry deep inside of you
I need you beside me; the road is so long You run through my heart Like the words of a bitter-sweet song I'd travel the whole world Across the earth, around the sun If I could be the one you carry deep inside of you
Without you beside me, the road is so long You live in my heart And it hurts when I think of you gone I need you in my way I have no right to love so true But let me be the one, the one who lives inside of you Just let me be the one you carry deep inside of you

Deep In The Darkest Night
Composer(s): Rick Kemp
Performer(s): Maddy Prior; Nick Holland; Troy Donockley
Deep in the darkest night
Under a midnight blue
Standing alone with the sea and the moon
You said that you'd come back soon
Deep in the darkest night
Deep in a memory
A fugitive on the run
Looking for somewhere to make a bed
Somewhere to lie a restless head
Deep in a memory
I'll be your harbour when there's a storm
I'll be your sunshine I'll keep you warm
I'll be your shelter in the rain and snow
Remember wherever you go
Deep in the darkest night
Dans un noir de nuit
Je n'avais rien dit
Souvenir d'un ête chaud
Souvenir de soleil et d'eau
Dans un noir de nuit
Deep in your heart you know
You're running against the wind
Taking your loneliness in your case
The same old sadness from place to place
Deep in your heart you know
I'll be your harbour when there's a storm
I'll be your sunshine I'll keep you warm
I'll be your shelter in the rain and snow
Remember wherever you go
Deep in the darkest night
Dans un noir de nuit
Dans un noir de nuit
Deep in the darkest night
