Mangos Composer(s): Dale Libby; Sid Wayne Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney and various other artists
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 cur
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 cur Un p'tit peu de joie dans le cur
{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
Mangos Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg; Julien Clerc; Martin Simon Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Petite liane tu danses au gré du vent Moi le macaque je te suis en rêvant J'aimerais mordre dans les jolies mangos Qu'tu balances là-haut
Petite liane tu danses sur le temps Et tu te bouges comme un petit serpent J'aimerais mordre dans les noix de coco Qu'tu balances là-haut
En boire le lait chaud Mango joli mango Je t'avale fruit tropical Mon joli mango J'adore la saveur végétale De ta peau
Petite liane tu danses au gré du vent Moi le macaque je vais d'arrière en avant J'aimerais mordre dans les jolies mangos Grimper tout là-haut, là-haut, tout là-haut
Mango joli mango Je t'avale fruit tropical Mon joli mango J'adore la saveur végétale De ta peau
Petite liane tu n'aimes pas les ouragans Mais moi le macaque, j'suis pas orang-outang Laisse-moi mordre dans les jolies mangos Qu'tu balances là-haut, là-haut, tout là-haut
Mango joli mango Je t'avale fruit tropical Mon joli mango J'adore la saveur végétale Des fibres de ta peau
J'veux grimper là-haut Grimper tout là-haut, là-haut Mango Mango
24 Green Street Composer(s): John Fischer Performer(s): Peter, Paul & Mary
The paint is old and peeling The shutters show some cracks There's a heavy limb on the apple tree That's got to be cut back There's some water in the cellar A little sagging in the floor But this house has weathered many storms It will weather many more
'Cause I scraped away the peeling paint And found the wood was good and strong And I found a firm foundation Had been there all along There's nothing here that a little work And time can't heal 'Cause everything underneath is real
Nerves are frayed and ragged Patience is wearing thin Words were said in fits of rage That never should have been We bruised each other badly Lost respect along the way But there's too much here worth saving To throw it all away
Can't we lay aside our fear and pride And find the good within All that we have shared before Can be restored again There's nothing here that a little work And time can't heal 'Cause everything underneath is real
Non si scherza, non è un gioco sta arrivando Mangiafuoco lui comanda e muove i fili fa ballare i burattini
State attenti tutti quanti non fa tanti complimenti chi non balla, o balla male lui lo manda all'ospedale
Ma se scopre che tu i fili non ce l'hai se si accorge che tu il ballo non lo fai allora sono guai - e te ne accorgerai attento a quel che fai - attento ragazzo che chiama i suoi gendarmi e ti dichiara pazzo!...
C'è un gran ballo, questa sera ed ognuno ha la bandiera marionette, commedianti balleranno tutti quanti
Tutti i capi di partito e su in alto Mangiafuoco Mangiafuoco fa le scelte muove i fili e si diverte
Ma se scopre....ecc.
C'è una danza molto bella tra Arlecchino e Pulcinella si riempiono di calci si spaccano le ossa Mangiafuoco sta alla cassa
Mangiafuoco fa i biglietti tiene i prezzi molto alti non c'è altro concorrente chi ci prova se ne pente!...
Tu étais encore dans mes bras hier Aujourd'hui t'es dans mon sac à bandoulière C'est en été, qu'on s'est connu On s'embrassait sous les étoiles Du feu d'artifice Que j'aimais tes yeux couleur azur Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus De nos amours, de nos délices Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Souviens-toi juste avant notre rupture Je te tenais contre moi grandeur nature Les pieds dans l'eau, à demi nus On pêchait les petits poissons en s'offrant des réglisses Tu avais un joli teint de métisse Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus De nos amours, de nos délices Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Mais au mois d'août on est un peu fous Tous les baigneur font les fous C'est tous les jours dimanche, on fait la planche On avait les cheveux couleur maïs Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus De nos amours, de nos délices Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Je pleure aujourd'hui devant la photo Je nous revois on s'aimait en pédalo On s'est connus, perdus de vue Je vois déjà sur le papier que nos amours jaunissent Je n'vois plus tes yeux couleur azur Et je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus De nos amours, de nos délices Rien qu'une photo en 24/36

24000 Baisers Italian Title: 24 Mila Baci Composer(s): F. Bonifay Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Aime-moi Comme je t'aime
Si tu veux bien me laisser faire Pendant une journée entière Je suis capable pour te plaire De te donner 24000 baisers
Je prends des paris à la ronde Sans perdre plus de dix secondes Je promets devant tout le monde De te donner 24000 baisers
Je ne sais pas ce qui ce passe Vois-tu chérie plus je t'embrasse Plus j'ai envie de t'embrasser
J'aime assez ça quand tu m'enlace Et comme je ne suis pas de glace Je ne laisserais pas ma place Quand je te donne 24000 baisers
Je fais un trait toutes les demi-heures J'en suis au moins à huit cent mille Et je ne peux pas m'arrêter
Je prends des paris à la ronde Sans perdre plus de dix secondes Je promets devant tout le monde De te donner 24000 baisers
Et lorsqu'une fois centenaire Il me faudra quitter la terre Sans même faire une prière Je suis bien certain que Saint-Pierre En me voyant toujours sincère Me permettra de t'embrasser Tout le temps de l'éternité
Mandy Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Eddie Cantor and various other artists
I was strolling out one evening by the silvery moon I could hear somebody singing a familiar tune So I stopped awhile to listen, not a word I wanted to miss It was just somebody serenading, something like this
My pretty Mandy, there's a Minister handy And it sure would be dandy if we let him make a fee (If we let him make a fee) So don't you linger, here's a ring for your finger Isn't it a little humdinger Come along and let the wedding chimes Bring a happy times for Mandy and me
My pretty Mandy, there's a Minister handy And it sure would be dandy if he made a fee Oh, don't you linger, here's a ring for your finger Isn't it a humdinger Come along and let the wedding chimes Bring happy times for Mandy and me
Oh Mandy, there's a Minister handy Come along and let the wedding chimes Bring happy times for Mandy, Mandy Ding dong, ding dong The wedding chimes ring out For Mandy, Mandy, Mandy and me
2-4-6-8 Motorway Composer(s): Tom Robinson Performer(s): Tom Robinson
Drive my truck midway to the motorway station Fairlane cruiser coming up on the left hand side Headlight shining, driving rain on the window frame Little young Lady Stardust hitching a ride... and it's
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night 3-5-7-9 on a double white line Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Whizzkid sitting pretty on your two-wheel stallion This ol' ten-ton lorry got a bead on you Ain't no use setting up with a bad companion Ain't nobody get the better of you-know-who
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night 3-5-7-9 on a double white line Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Well there ain't no route you could choose to lose the two of us Ain't nobody know when you're acting right or wrong No-one knows if a roadway's leading nowhere Gonna keep on driving home on the road I'm on...
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night 3-5-7-9 on a double white line Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Mandy Composer(s): Scott English; Richard Kerr Performer(s): Barry Manilow
I remember all my life Raining down as cold as ice Shadows of a man A face through a window Crying in the night The night goes into Morning, just another day Happy people pass my way Looking' in their eyes I see a memory I never realised How happy you made me, oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking But I sent you away, oh Mandy Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you today, oh Mandy
Standing on the edge of time Walked away when love was mine Caught up in a world of uphill climbing The tears are in my mind And nothing is rhyming, oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking But I sent you away, oh Mandy Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you today, oh Mandy
Yesterday's a dream I face the morning Crying on a breeze The pain is calling, oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without taking But I sent you away, oh Mandy Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you today, oh Mandy
You came and you gave without taking But I sent you away, oh Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you
25 Or 6 To 4 Composer(s): Robert Lamm Performer(s): Chicago
Waiting for the break of day Searching for something to say Dancing lights against the sky Giving up I close my eyes Sitting cross-legged on the floor 25 or 6 to 4
Staring blindly into space Getting up to splash my face Wanting just to stay awake Wondering how much I can take Should have tried to do some more 25 or 6 to 4
Feeling like I ought to sleep Spinning room is sinking deep Searching for something to say Waiting for the break of day 25 or 6 to 4 25 or 6 to 4
Mandolins In The Moonlight Composer(s): George Weiss; Aaron Schroeder Performer(s): Perry Como; Helmut Lotti
Mandolins in the moonlight, beautiful music of love!
We're not in Venice in a gondola beneath skies of blue And yet it seems we're there, signorina, when I'm close to you 'Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight Mandolins in the moonlight See what magic you start A song of Italy sings in perfect tune with the strings of my heart
We won't be tossing coins in the fountain down in Rome tonight And yet my dreams come true, signorina, when you hold me tight 'Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight Mandolins in the moonlight See what magic you start A song of Italy sings in perfect tune with the strings of my heart
Now here's the way they whisper, "I love you", down in Napoli Ti voglio bene, mia signorina, and that goes for me 'Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight Mandolins in the moonlight See what magic you start A song of Italy sings in perfect tune with the strings of my heart
Mandolins in the moonlight, beautiful music of love

Mandolin Wind Composer(s): Rod Stewart Performer(s): Rod Stewart and various other artists
When the rain came I thought you'd leave 'cause I knew how much you loved the sun But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm through the darkest nights I've ever known If the mandolin wind couldn't change a thing then I know I love ya
Oh the snow fell without a break Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years I couldn't believe you kept a smile Now I can rest assured knowing that we've seen the worst And I know I love ya
Oh I never was good with romantic words so the next few lines come really hard Don't have much but what I've got is yours except of course my steel guitar Ha, 'cause I know you don't play but I'll teach you one day because I love ya
I recall the night we knelt and prayed Noticing your face was thin and pale I found it hard to hide my tears I felt ashamed I felt I'd let you down No mandolin wind couldn't change a thing Couldn't change a thing no, no
The coldest winter in almost fourteen years could never, never change your mind
And I love ya Yes indeed and I love ya And I love ya Lordy I love ya
26 Miles (Santa Catalina) Composer(s): Glen Larson; Bruce Belland Performer(s): The Four Preps
Twenty-six miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance, romance, romance, romance
Water all around it everywhere Tropical trees and the salty air But for me the thing that's a-waitin' there-romance
It seems so distant, twenty-six miles away Restin' in the water serene I'd work for anyone, even the Navy Who would float me to my island dream
Twenty-six miles, so near yet far I'd swim with just some water-wings and my guitar I could leave the wings but I'll need the guitar for romance romance, romance, romance
Twenty-six miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance
A tropical heaven out in the ocean Covered with trees and girls If I have to swim, I'll do it forever Till I'm gazin' on those island pearls
Forty kilometers in a leaky old boat Any old thing that'll stay afloat When we arrive we'll all promote romance, romance, romance, romance
Twenty-six miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me Santa Catalina, the island of romance, romance, romance, romance
Fade
Twenty-six miles across the sea Santa Catalina is a-waitin' for me
Mandarme Rosas Composer(s): R. de León Performer(s): Raphael
No me ha dejado tu pasion, vida mia Ningun mensaje de dolor ni alegria Y en el silencio de tu casa vacia No hay una cancion
No me ha dejado tu querer ni una huella Ni un arco iris, ni una flor, ni una estrella Pues tu romance sin final no hizo mella En mi corazon
Mandarme rosas a millares Que me distraigan con su olor Mandarme versos y cantares Mandarme amor Me siento diferente Y quiero alegremente En otros brazos despertar
Me encuentro nuevo y ya curado De tu cariño sin verdad Mandarme rosas que he logrado La libertad
Ya no me acuerdo del color de tu pelo De si tus ojos era el mar o era el cielo Como tampoco ya por ti siento celos ¡con lo que te ame!
Ayer llamarte nuevamente he querido Pero tu nombre de mi frente se ha ido Y aunque lo quise recordar no he podido Porque lo olvide
