    Maninha
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque
    Performer(s): Chico Buarque
    and various other artists



    Se lembra da fogueira
    Se lembra dos balões
    Se lembra dos luares dos sertões
    A roupa no varal
    Feriado nacional
    E as estrelas salpicadas nas canções
    Se lembra quando toda modinha
    Falava de amor
    Pois nunca mais cantei, ó maninha
    Depois que ele chegou

    Se lembra da jaquiera
    A fruta no capim
    O sonho que você contou pra mim
    Os passos no porão
    Lembra da assombração
    E das almas com perfume de jasmim
    Se lembra do jardim, ó maninha
    Coberto de flor
    Pois hoje só dá erva daninha
    No chão que ele pisou

    Se lembra do futuro
    Que a gente combinou
    Eu era tão crinça e ainda sou
    Querendo acreditar
    Que o dia vai raiar
    Só porque uma cantiga anunciou
    Mas não me deixe assim, tão sozinho
    A me torturar
    Que um dia ele vai embora, maninha
    Pra nunca mais voltar

    20th Century Promised Land
    Composer(s): J. Kerr
    Performer(s): Simple Minds



    Stories came like the wind
    Joining every bridge in the wind
    Ringing out footsteps
    Calling out stell-heels
    I give voice
    I give breath
    Count out evenings and stars
    How fast can these things move on
    Taking roots back to yourself
    And the reason for fear was moving on
    And on
    Some time
    Great times
    Troubled time
    Fire for the times
    Ringing out footsteps
    Calling out steel-heels

    Promised land
    Great times in commotion
    Here come every day
    It only lasts an hour
    Unhappy the land that has no heroes
    No! Unhappy the land that needs heroes

    And the reason for fear was moving on
    The speed of light was moving on
    Don't cry
    Tears are only wasted waters
    Some say God her only loves the proud
    Be damned on luck
    But not dishearted
    Nothing to prove
    And nothing to present
    I give voice
    I give breath
    Catching winds in my hand
    My hand

    Some times
    Great times
    Catching wind in my hand
    My hand
    Some times
    Great times
    Troubled times
    Fire for the times
    Ringing out footsteps
    Calling out steel-heels

    Promised land
    Great times in commotion
    Here comes every dat
    It only lasts an hour
    Unhappy the land that has no heroes
    No! Unhappy the land that needs heroes

    I'll call you out
    I'll scream you out
    And I don't care if you're afraid
    When city sounds invade the air

    Catch the wind in their hands
    Promised land
    Catch the wind in their hands
    Promised lands
    Promised lands
    Promised lands
    Great times in commotion

    Manifiesto
    Composer(s): Víctor Jara
    Performer(s): Víctor Jara
    and various other artists



    Yo no canto por cantar
    ni por tener buena voz
    canto porque la guitarra
    tiene sentido y razón

    Tiene corazón de tierra
    y alas de palomita
    es como el agua bendita
    santigua glorias y penas

    Aquí se encajó mi canto
    como dijera Violeta
    guitarra trabajadora
    con olor a primavera

    Que no es guitarra de ricos
    ni cosa que se parezca
    mi canto es de los andamios
    para alcanzar las estrellas

    Que el canto tiene sentido
    cuando palpita en las venas
    del que morirá cantando
    las verdades verdaderas
    no las lisonjas fugaces
    ni las famas extranjeras
    sino el canto de una lonja
    hasta el fondo de la tierra

    Ahí donde llega todo
    y donde todo comienza
    canto que ha sido valiente
    siempre será canción nueva

    Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen

    2112 Overture
    Composer(s): Geddy Lee
    Performer(s): Rush



    "I lie awake, staring out at the bleakness of Megadon
    City and sky become one, merging into a single plane
    a vast sea of unbroken grey.
    The Twin Moons, just two pale orbs as they trace their way across the steely sky
    I used to think I had a pretty good life here
    just plugging into my machine for the day
    then watching Templevision or reading a Temple Paper in the evening

    "My friend Jon always said it was nicer here
    than under the atmospheric domes of the Outer Planets
    We have had peace since 2062
    when the surviving planets were banded together under the Red Star of the Solar Federation
    The less fortunate gave us a few new moons
    I believed what I was told
    I thought it was a good life, I thought I was happy
    Then I found something that changed it all..."

    I. Overture

    And the meek shall inherit the earth...

    II. Temples of Syrinx

    ... "The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the heart of every Federation city
    I have always been awed by them
    to think that every single facet of every life is regulated and directed from within!
    Our books, our music, our work and play
    are all looked after by the benevolent wisdom of the priests..."

    We've taken care of everything
    The words you hear, the songs you sing
    The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes
    It's one for all and all for one
    We work together, common sons
    Never need to wonder how or why

    We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
    Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
    We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
    All the gifts of life are held within our walls

    Look around at this world we've made
    Equality our stock in trade
    Come and join the Brotherhood of Man
    Oh, what a nice, contented world
    Let the banners be unfurled
    Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand

    We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
    Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
    We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
    All the gifts of life are held within our walls

    III. Discovery

    ... "Behind my beloved waterfall
    in the little room that was hidden beneath the cave, I found it
    I brushed away the dust of the years, and picked it up
    holding it reverently in my hands. I had no idea what it might be, but it was beautiful" ...

    ... "I learned to lay my fingers across the wires
    and to turn the keys to make them sound differently
    As I struck the wires with my other hand
    I produced my first harmonious sounds, and soon my own music!
    How different it could be from the music of the Temples!
    I can't wait to tell the priests about it! ..."

    What can this strange device be?
    When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
    It's got wires that vibrate and give music
    What can this thing be that I found?

    See how it sings like a sad heart
    And joyously screams out its pain
    Sounds that build high like a mountain
    Or notes that fall gently like rain

    I can't wait to share this new wonder
    The people will all see its light
    Let them all make their own music
    The Priests praise my name on this night

    IV. Presentation

    ... "In the sudden silence as I finished playing
    I looked up to a circle of grim, expressionless faces
    Father Brown rose to his feet
    and his somnolent voice echoed throughout the silent Temple Hall" ...

    ... "Instead of the grateful joy that I expected
    they were words of quiet rejection!
    Instead of praise, sullen dismissal
    I watched in shock and horror
    as Father Brown ground my precious instrument to splinters beneath his feet..."

    I know it's most unusual
    To come before you so
    But I've found an ancient miracle
    I thought that you should know
    Listen to my music
    And hear what it can do
    There's something here as strong as life
    I know that it will reach you

    Yes, we know, it's nothing new
    It's just a waste of time
    We have no need for ancient ways
    Our world is doing fine
    Another toy will help destroy
    The elder race of man
    Forget about your silly whim
    It doesn't fit the plan

    I can't believe you're saying
    These things just can't be true
    Our world could use this beauty
    Just think what we might do
    Listen to my music
    And hear what it can do
    There's something here as strong as life
    I know that it will reach you

    Don't annoy us further!
    We have our work to do.
    Just think about the average
    What use have they for you?
    Another toy will help destroy
    The elder race of man
    Forget about your silly whim
    It doesn't fit the Plan!

    V. Oracle: The Dream

    ... "I guess it was a dream, but even now it all seems so vivid to me
    Clearly yet I see the beckoning hand of the oracle
    as he stood at the summit of the staircase" ...

    ... "I see still the incredible beauty of the sculptured cities
    and the pure spirit of man revealed in the lives and works of this world
    I was overwhelmed by both wonder and understanding
    as I saw a completely different way to life
    a way that had been crushed by the Federation long ago
    I saw now how meaningless life had become with the loss of all these things ..."

    I wandered home though the silent streets
    And fell into a fitful sleep
    Escape to realms beyond the night
    Dream can't you show me the light?

    I stand atop a spiral stair
    An oracle confronts me there
    He leads me on light years away
    Through astral nights, galactic days
    I see the works of gifted hands
    That grace this strange and wondrous land
    I see the hand of man arise
    With hungry mind and open eyes

    They left the planet long ago
    The elder race still learn and grow
    Their power grows with purpose strong
    To claim the home where they belong
    Home to tear the Temples down...
    Home to change!

    VI. Soliloquy

    ... "I have not left this cave for days now
    it has become my last refuge in my total despair
    I have only the music of the waterfall to comfort me now
    I can no longer live under the control of the Federation
    but there is no other place to go
    My last hope is that with my death I may pass into the world of my dream
    and know peace at last"

    The sleep is still in my eyes
    The dream is still in my head
    I heave a sigh and sadly smile
    And lie a while in bed
    I wish that it might come to pass
    Not fade like all my dreams...

    Just think of what my life might be
    In a world like I have seen!
    I don't think I can carry on
    Carry on this cold and empty life

    My spirits are low in the depths of despair
    My lifeblood...
    ...spills over...

    VII. The Grand Finale
    Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation
    Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation
    Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation
    We have assumed control
    We have assumed control
    We have assumed control

    Maniculitanteo
    Composer(s): Willy Chirino
    Performer(s): Willy Chirino



    Hay hombres que se las pasan
    Manoseando a las mujeres
    Yo no entiendo cómo pueden
    Disfrutar esos placeres
    Si bailan con una chica
    Buscan posición
    Con las manos sueltas
    Y en la confusión
    Entre todo el movimiento
    Y en el ajetreo
    Es el preciso momento ¿para qué?
    Maniculitanteo, aprovechan del meneo
    Maniculitanteo, eso yo no lo deseo
    Maniculitanteo, la fiesta está en su apogeo
    Maniculitanteo, ya me está dando mareo
    Hay hombres que se las pasan
    Manoseando a las mujeres
    Qué manera tan grosera
    La que tienen esos seres

    Buscan los lugares buenos
    Donde hay mucha gente
    Se van deslizando
    Como una serpiente
    Estudian el elemento
    Y hacen un sondeo
    Porque ya llegó el momento ¿para qué?

    Maniculitanteo, se aprovechan del meneo
    Maniculitanteo, ten cuidado con Doroteo
    Maniculitanteo, esto se está poniendo feo
    Maniculitanteo, se puede formar un peo'

    21st Century Man
    Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
    Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra



    A penny in your pocket
    Suitcase in your hand
    They won't get you very far
    Now you're a 21st century man

    Fly across the city
    Rise above the land
    You can do 'most anything
    Now you're a 21st century man

    Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow (tomorrow)
    You still wander the fields of your sorrow
    What will it bring?

    One day you're a hero
    Next day you're a clown
    There's nothing that is in between
    Now you're a 21st century man

    You should be so happy
    You should be so glad
    So why are you so lonely
    You 21st century man?

    You stepped out of a dream
    Believing everything was gone
    Return with what you've learned
    They'll kiss the ground you walk upon

    Things ain't how you thought they were
    Nothing have you planned
    So pick up your penny and your suitcase
    You're not a 21st century man

    Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow
    You still wander the fields of your sorrow (sorrow)
    Tomorrow, 21st century man
    21st century man
    21st century man…

    Manic Depression's touching my soul
    I know what I want
    but I just don't know how to go about getting it

    Feeling, sweet feeling
    drops from my finger, fingers
    Manic Depression's captured my soul

    Woman so willing the sweet cause in vain
    you make love
    you break love
    it's-a all the same when it's...
    when it's over

    Music sweet music
    I wish I could caress, caress, caress
    Manic Depression's a frustrating mess
    Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down

    Really ain't no use me hanging around
    Oh, I gotta see you

    Maniac
    Composer(s): Dennis Matkosky; Michael Sembello
    Originally performed by: Michael Sembello



    Just a small town girl on a saturday night
    lookin' for the fight of her life
    In the real-time world no one sees her at all
    they all say she's crazy

    Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing woman into life
    She has danced into the danger zone, when a dancer becomes a dance

    It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
    On a wire between will and what will be

    She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
    And she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
    And she's dancing like she's never danced before

    On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see
    It's a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can't hold it
    You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by
    It's a push of the world, but there's always a chance
    If the hunger stays the night

    There's a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat
    Never stopping with her head against the wind

    She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
    And she's dancing like she's never danced before
    She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
    And she's dancing like she's never danced before

    It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
    On a wire between will and what will be

    She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
    And she's dancing like she's never danced before

    24 hours of every day
    I'd walk on glass just to hear you say
    'Gettin' it on is like a drug to me
    I want you baby, can't you see?'

    I'm crashed, I'm crushed, and I'm stuck on you
    I'd do anything that you want me to
    I'd crawl on my knees just to get to you
    I close my eyes and girl it's true

    On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
    Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
    C'mon be my

    21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious
    21st century babe, you got solar fire
    21st century girl, sweet romancer, cosmic dancer
    21st century sha la la la girl

    Kiss this, you're blowin' my mind
    Never say never, but I'm takin' my time
    Girl to the world from the a to the z
    I fall for you so easily

    Catch my breath 'cause I know too well
    That I just can't control myself
    Realize we synchronize
    It's only when I close my eyes

    On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
    Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
    C'mon be my

    21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious
    21st century babe, you got solar fire
    21st century girl, sweet romancer, cosmic dancer
    21st century, she's high on flying

    Flying, flying
    You take me up, you set me free
    No time to breathe, just zero g
    High, still flying, no gravity
    She's flying

    On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
    Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
    C'mon be my

    21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious

    Mani Bucate

    Originally performed by: Sergio Endrigo



    Non hai saputo
    tenerti niente
    neanche un sorriso sincero
    e avevi il mondo
    il mondo intero
    nelle tue mani
    Tutto hai perduto
    anche l'amore
    buttato via
    dalle tue mani
    mani bucate

    Non hai saputo
    tenerti niente
    neanche un amico sincero
    Avevi tanto
    e hai sempre dato
    tutto a nessuno
    Tutto hai perduto
    anche il mio cuore
    buttato via
    dalle tue mani
    mani bucate

    Ora lo sai
    nessuno torna indietro
    e io non sono più io
    E' inutile che pensi a me

    Adesso piangi
    adesso chiedi
    un po' di amore sincero
    Un po' d'amore
    per il tuo cuore
    solo e malato
    Non c'e' nessuno
    che ti dia un fiore
    ne' una mano
    per le tue mani
    mani bucate

    Non c'e' nessuno
    che ti dia un fiore
    ne' una mano
    per le tue mani
    mani bucate

    Non c'e' nessuno
    che ti dia un fiore
    ne' una mano
    per le tue mani
    mani bucate

    22 Acacia Avenue
    Composer(s): Steve Harris; Smith
    Performer(s): Iron Maiden



    If you're feeling down depressed and lonely
    I know a place where we can go
    22 Acacia Avenue meet a lady that I know
    So if you're looking for a good time
    And you're prepared to pay the price
    Fifteen quid is all she asks for
    Everybody's got their vice

    If you're waiting for a long time for the rest to do their piece
    You can tell her that you know me and you might even get it free
    So any time you're down the East End don't you hesitate to go
    You can take my honest word for it she'll teach you more than you can know

    Charlotte can't you get out from all this madness
    Can't you see it only brings you sadness
    When you entertain your men don't know the risk of getting disease

    Some day when you're reaching the age of forty
    I bet you'll regret the days when you were laying
    Nobody then will want to know
    You won't have any beautiful wares to show any more

    22, the avenue that's the place where we all go
    You will find it's warm inside the red light's burning bright tonight

    Charlotte isn't it time you stopped this mad life
    Don't you ever think about the bad times
    Why do you have to live this way
    Do you enjoy your lay or is it the pay

    Sometimes when your strolling down the avenue
    The way you walk it make men think of having you
    When you're walking down the street
    Everybody stops and turns to stare at you

    Beat her mistreat her do anything that you please
    Bite her excite her make her get down on her knees
    Abuse her misuse her she can take all that you've got
    Caress her molest her she always does what you want

    You're running away don't you know what you're doing
    Can't you see it'll lead you to ruin
    Charlotte you've taken your life and you've thrown it away
    You believe that because what you're earning
    Your life's good don't you know that you're hurting
    All the people that love you don't cast them aside
    All the men that are constantly drooling
    It's no life for you stop all that screwing
    You're packing your bags and you're coming with me

    Composer(s): John Curulewski

    Lord, she's my heart and soul
    I don't even have to tell ya
    she knows how to rock and roll

    well this crazy lovin' mama
    makin' everything all right
    I don't even have to tell ya
    she makes things seem outta sight
    all right

    whenever I'm down
    and nothings going right at all
    I just think about my baby
    and all I've got to do is call

    when the evening's looking pretty
    and the day's hanging out too long
    I know my baby cares about me
    right or wrong

    it took a long time to find her
    it took a lot of laughs and tears
    it took a long time to find her
    it took me 22 years

    I've got a crazy little mama
    said, Lord, she's my heart and soul
    yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
    I don't even have to tell ya
    she know's how to rock and roll

    well this crazy lovin' mama
    makin' everything all right
    yeah
    I don't even have to tell ya
    she makes things seem outta sight
    all right

    it took a long time to find her
    it took a lot of laughs and tears
    it took a long time to find her
    it took me 22 years

    Manhattan Downbeat
    Composer(s): Harry Warren; Ira Gershwin
    Performer(s): Fred Astaire



    Tempo, you know that good old tempo

    Just give me that Manhattan Downbeat
    That beats a tempo of its own
    You've got to shout, "This is it!"
    The day you visit
    The jumpinest town has ever been known
    Keep your Paree and London town beat
    Up with your 'bockers stands alone
    Drive up any avenue, swing down any street
    No beat has Manhattan Downbeat beat!

    Manhattan has a beat that's all its own
    Manhattan has a beat to call its own
    So, Mister Leader, when you give the band the downbeat
    A one, two, three

    And give 'em that Manhattan Downbeat
    That beats a tempo of its own;
    You've got to shout, "This is it!"
    The day you visit
    The jumpinest town has ever been known
    Keep your Paree and London town beat
    Up with your 'bockers stands alone
    Drive up any avenue, swing down any street
    No beat has Manhattan Downbeat
    No beat has Manhattan Downbeat
    No beat has Manhattan Downbeat beat!

    221 East Maple
    Composer(s): N. Levenson
    Performer(s): Ron Dante



    Dum de dum dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum de dum dum
    Dum dum dum

    I'm in love with the girl who lives at
    Two twenty-one East Maple
    And ev'ry time she comes my way
    My poor heart seems to say

    I'm in love with the girl who lives at
    Two twenty-one East Maple
    And I won't rest until she marries me

    Dum de dum dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum de dum dum
    Dum dum dum

    So I knocked at the door of the pretty little house at
    Two twenty-one East Maple
    And Mary Lou said "hi" to me
    Now I'm as happy as I can be

    'Cause I'm in love with the girl who lives at
    Two twenty-one East Maple
    And I won't rest until she marries me

    Dum de dum dum
    Dum de dum de dum

    Her eyes are baby blue
    And she drives a Jaguar too
    If she'd just be my girl
    It'd be a wonderful world for me

    'Cause I'm in love with the girl who lives at
    Two twenty-one East Maple
    And I won't rest until she marries...

    {wedding bells}

    She just said she'd marry me

    Dum de dum dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum dum dum

    Dum de dum dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum de dum de dum
    Dum dum dum ... (fade)

    Manhattan
    Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
    Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald
    and various other artists



    Summer journeys to Niag'ra
    And to other places aggra
    Vate all our cares
    We'll save our fares!

    I've a cozy little flat in
    What is known as old Manhattan
    We'll settle down
    Right here in town!

    We'll have Manhattan
    The Bronx and Staten
    Island too
    It's lovely going through
    The zoo!

    It's very fancy
    On old Delancey
    Street you know
    The subway charms us so
    When balmy breezes blow
    To and fro

    And tell me what street
    Compares with Mott Street
    In July?
    Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by

    The great big city's a wonderous toy
    Just made for a girl and boy
    We'll turn Manhattan
    Into an isle of joy!

    We'll go to Yonkers
    Where true love conquers
    In the wilds
    And starve together dear, in Child's

    We'll go to Coney
    And eat baloney on a roll
    In Central Park we'll stroll
    Where our first kiss we stole
    Soul to soul

    And "My Fair Lady"
    Is a terrific show they say
    We both may see it close
    Some day

    The city's glamour can never spoil
    The dreams of a boy and goil
    We'll turn Manhattan
    Into an isle of joy!

    23
    Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



    Tengo 23 rostros para verte
    tengo 23 manos que te tocan
    tengo 23 sueños reunidos
    en fila india
    Tengo 23 años de distancia
    tengo 23 años de tamaño
    tengo 23 años de momentos
    de melodías y reloj

    Ahora tengo 23 caracoles
    23 buenos pretextos
    para hacerte compañía
    23 caminatas
    sin saber dónde ir
    23 voces mías
    diciendo "vivo cerca"
    23 alegrías
    nuestra complicidad
    23 llaves verdes
    abriéndonos la puerta
    -y mi casa que queda
    en la calle 23
    tiene 23 siglos
    distintos que vivir-
    23 divisiones
    de estrellas desfilando
    23 sensaciones
    rompiendo las ventanas
    23 pasadizos
    abiertos al delirio
    23 mil pasiones
    en una sola cama
    23 espejismos
    23 agonías
    23 deserciones
    23 veces mía
    (si es posible
    por supuesto
    si es posible)

    Las cábalas dirán
    horrores de mi número
    pero de pronto el 23 se me antoja de suerte
    para quien lleva 23 tiempos sobre sí
    (quien sabe si es acaso
    mi número de muerte)

    23 es pedazos
    de piedras del amor
    23 es el polvo
    que hay en las ventanas
    23 un cristal bien ahumado
    para mirar al sol
    23 es un rostro
    al espejo una mañana
    23 sale el día
    23 va la noche
    23
    23
    23...

    Performer(s): The Jacksons



    2300 jackson street
    2300 jackson street
    2300 jackson street

    Memories of growing up
    And working hard
    Our childhood passed us by

    Mom and dad
    They sacrificed their wants and needs
    So we could reach the light

    Although the times were tough for us
    We knew they both worked hard
    They gave us all their hearts could give

    And still made room for love
    We’re all united
    And standing strong
    And still today
    We’re one big family

    (chorus)
    2300 jackson street
    Always home
    2300 jackson street
    Always home

    Oooooo
    In harmony, together we’ll
    Join hands and sing
    Our love across the land

    Remember we always said, if we got a chance
    We’ll plan our work
    And work our master plan

    Although the road of life is tough
    It has it’s ups and downs
    We are the one and all
    If we stay together
    We can conquer all

    We are united
    And standing strong
    And still today
    We’re one big family
    Oooooooh

    (chorus)

    Mother and father
    They raised us to be
    The best that we could be

    Now the stage is set
    The curtain’s up
    The crowd applauds your name

    Then give a smile
    Lets do you’re best
    No matter how far we go

    (chorus)

    Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire
    In my house of straw, I have so much more
    Pie from the pidgeon, I fix in the kitchen
    Each bite is just right for your appetite

    Now if you like the way I cook
    And if you like the way I look
    Then step inside my shady nook
    And you'll find mangos and papayas
    Anything your heart desires

    Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire
    The food is so good you will wanna stay

    Eat up and drink up
    And maybe you'll
    Think of the day
    When we say, preacher man, okay
    (Okay)

    2'35 De Bonheur
    Composer(s): J.M. Rivat; F. Thomas; J. Renard
    Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan



    Chaque soir tu vas chanter
    Pourtant tu n'es pas vraiment loin de moi
    Je n'suis pas tout à fait abandonnée
    Si je m'ennuie je peux retrouver ta voix

    J'écoute un disque de toi
    Ça fait 2'35 de bonheur
    Et ça me donne quand tu n'es pas là
    Un petit peu de joie dans le cœur

    Je peux m'imaginer
    Que je fais tout ce que je veux de toi
    Je te ferai dire ce qu'il me plaît
    Et tu me dis 100 fois :
    "Oh ! Je n'aime que toi".

    Le disque est un peu rayé
    Je l'ai fait jouer tant et tant de fois
    Les paroles se sont effacées
    Mais je devine encore ta voix

    {voix homme:}
    Chaque soir, je peux chanter
    Pourtant je ne suis pas vraiment loin de toi
    Tu n'es pas tout à fait abandonnée
    Et tu sais que je n'aime que toi

    Je peux m'imaginer
    Que je fais tout ce que je veux de toi
    Je te ferai dire ce qu'il me plaît
    Et tu me dis 100 fois :
    "Oh ! Je n'aime que toi".
    J'écoute un disque de toi
    Ça fait 2'35 de bonheur
    Et ça me donne quand tu n'es pas là
    Un tout petit peu de joie dans le cœur
    Un p'tit peu de joie dans le cœur

    {voix homme:}
    Chaque soir, je veux chanter
    Pourtant je ne suis pas vraiment loin de toi
    Tu n'es pas tout à fait abandonnée
    Et tu sais bien que je n'aime que toi

    Un p'tit peu de joie dans le cœur
