Im Orient gibt's ein Lokal, das Cafe Oriental jeder Scheich war schon einmal, im Cafe Oriental Dies Lokal ist ein Magnet, dort gibt's Frauen ohne Zahl und wer so was sucht, der geht ins Cafe Oriental
Eine war besonders schön, im Cafe Oriental sie sah aus wie die Loren, im Cafe Oriental Herrlich war ihr Dekolleté, sie war schlank und so schmal und war braun wie der Kaffee, im Cafe Oriental
Ich ging lächelnd auf sie zu, im Cafe Oriental bat sie um ein Rendezvous, im Cafe Oriental Kaum war ich in ihrer Näh', flog ich raus aus dem Saal denn ihr Mann war der Portier, vom Cafe Oriental
Doch weil ich so gerne bin, im Cafe Oriental geh ich morgen wieder hin, ins Cafe Oriental Aber lacht mich eine an, frag ich erst sie einmal Sag'n Sie hab'n Sie einen Mann, im Cafe Oriental
As If We Never Said Goodbye Composer(s): Don Black - Christopher Hampton - Andrew Lloyd Webber - Amy Powers Performer(s): Barbra Streisand and multiple other artists
I dont know why Im frightened I know my way around here The cardboard trees, the painted scenes, the sound here Yes a world to rediscover But Im not in any hurry And I need a moment
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways The atmosphere as thrilling here as always Feel the early morning madness Feel the magic in the making Why everythings as if we never said goodbye
Ive spent so many mornings Just trying to resist you Im trembling now You cant know how Ive missed you Missed the fairy-tail adventures In this ever-spinning playground We were young together
Im coming out of make-up The lights already burning Not long until the cameras will start turning And the early morning madness And the magic in the making... Yes, everything is as if we never said goodbye
I dont want to be alone thats all in the past This worlds waited long enough Ive come home at last!
And this time will be bigger And brighter than we knew it So watch me fly, we all know I can do it... Could I stop my hand from shaking? Has there ever been a moment with so much to live for?
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways So much to say not just today but always Well have early morning madness Well have magic in the making Yes, everything is as if we never said goodbye... Oh, please dont ever ever make me say goodbye!!!
Mijn Hart Is Geen Speelgoed Performer(s): Rosita & Club 68
Mijn hart is geen speelgoed het is niet van steen Je kunt er niet mee blijven spelen Nee mijn hart is geen speelgoed laat mij maar alleen M'n smart daar kom ik wel overheen
Dacht je dat ik niet wist, dat er een ander is Zeg niet het is niet waar, dan zit je te liegen Dacht je dat ik niet wist, dat jij die ander mist Wanneer ik bij je ben, je blijft me bedriegen
Maar mijn hart is geen speelgoed het is niet van steen Je kunt er niet mee blijven spelen Nee, mijn hart is geen speelgoed, laat mij maar alleen M'n smart daar kom ik wel overheen mmm mmmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmmm
Dacht je dat ik niet zag, dat je vaak om mij lacht Zeg niet het is niet waar, je liegt met je ogen Jaren bleef jij bij mij, enkel uit medelij Als je van liefde sprak, heb jij steeds gelogen
Maar mijn hart is geen speelgoed, het is niet van steen Je kunt er niet mee blijven spelen Nee, mijn hart is geen speelgoed, laat mij maar alleen M'n smart daar kom ik wel overheen mmmmm mmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm
It was more than a matter of knowin' Or the words that were finally said It was more than the comin' or goin' Or the things that were made in your head It was more than a matter of wantin' And needin' the foolish things I gave
As if I ever cared to make you cry Could've been right to know that it was't Yet you knew I was sorry I dared to make you cry As if I would As if I could As if I tried
But the words that were finally spoken Like the thoughts that remain in my soul And hearts that were finally broken And embrace that never be hold And the words that I never told you But I told you, the foolish things I said
As if I ever cared to make you cry I could've been right to know that I wasn't Yet you knew that I was sorry I dared to make you cry As if I would As if I could As if I tried
As if I ever cared to make you cry I could've been right to know that I wasn't Yet you knew that I was sorry I dared to make you cry Could have been strong but the words didn't rhyme And the things that would come between us

As I Went Out One Morning Composer(s): Bob Dylan Performer(s): Bob Dylan
As I went out one morning To breathe the air around Tom Paine's I spied the fairest damsel That ever did walk in chains I offer'd her my hand She took me by the arm I knew that very instant She meant to do me harm
"Depart from me this moment" I told her with my voice Said she, "But I don't wish to" Said I, "But you have no choice" "I beg you, sir," she pleaded From the corners of her mouth "I will secretly accept you And together we'll fly south"
Just then Tom Paine, himself Came running from across the field Shouting at this lovely girl And commanding her to yield And as she was letting go her grip Up Tom Paine did run "I'm sorry, sir," he said to me "I'm sorry for what she's done"

Moest Dat Nou? Composer(s): Jos Brink Performer(s): Hommy & Emmy
Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Moest jij mij verlaten na die ruzie tussen ons Of wilde jij een ander en gaf jij me toen de bons Ik denk toch nog zo vaak aan jou Want jij bent voor mij de vrouw Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Alleen omdat hij rijker was liet jij mij in de steek Het heeft mijn hart zo'n pijn gedaan Nu voel ik mij zo week Ik weet niet wat ik doen moet Het is allemaal zijn schuld Die vraag blijft steeds in mij gehuld
Vanaf het moment dat ik jou kende Wist ik dat er nooit meer iemand anders in mijn leven komen zou Ik weet dat er voor mij geen andere vrouw van waarde is Je moet begrijpen ik kan niet meer zonder jou
Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Je bent met hem vertrokken en nu zie ik jou nooit weer Als ik naar jouw foto kijk gaat mijn hart zo te keer Ik zal het nooit vergeten dat jij me toen verliet Maar als ik aan je denk heb ik verdriet Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Moest je met die ander gaan die rijker was dan ik Het heeft mijn hart zo'n pijn gedaan Nog steeds komt er een snik Ik moet zo dikwijls denken aan die tijd van jou en mij En 's nachts woel ik van zij op zij
Vanaf het moment dat ik jou kende Wist ik dat er nooit meer iemand anders in mijn leven komen zou Ik weet dat er voor mij geen andere vrouw van waarde is Je moet begrijpen ik kan niet meer zonder jou
Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Moest jij mij verlaten na die ruzie tussen ons Of wilde jij een ander en gaf jij me toen de bons Ik denk toch nog zo vaak aan jou Want jij bent voor mij de vrouw Moest dat nou? Lieveling moest dat nou? Alleen omdat hij rijker was liet jij mij in de steek Het heeft mijn hart zo'n pijn gedaan Nu voel ik mij zo week Ik weet niet wat ik doen moet Het is allemaal zijn schuld Die vraag blijft steeds in mij gehuld...
Do It Yourself
Composer(s): Jule Styne - Betty Comden - Adolph Green
Performer(s): Dean Martin
You've gotta do it, you've gotta do it Gotta do it all alone No one else will do it for you You're on your own
Do it It may be love or war or mopping up the floor, but just do it Don't send a friend who's true to pitch your woo for you or you'll rue it Do it yourself
Don't fake it If you're a fake, you won't make it Wait for your break, and then take it For time and tide they wait for no man, go, go, go, man
Do it To prove the point at hand just look at old Miles Standish who blew it He said "John Alden, will you go and ask Priscilla to do it?" Miles got the heaveho
"Man," Priscilla said, "Now that Miles is gone Speak for yourself, dear John" He blew it, so do it, do it Do it yourself
Do It Or Die
Composer(s): Buddy Buie - J.R. Cobb - Ronnie Hammond
Performer(s): Atlanta Rhythm Section
Don't let your troubles make you cry Don't waste a moment wonderin' why When ev'rything goes wrong You have to go on And do it or die Do it or die now Stand your ground
Don't let your bad breaks go gettin' you down Even when times get rough And you've had enough You still gotta try Do it no matter what the people say They don't even know you
Die before you let them stand in your way (Don't you know that) You should know that life is a gamble all along Winners or losers you keep rollin' on So go on and roll the dice You only live twice So do it or die

Do It Again
Composer(s): Brian Wilson - Mike Love
First release by: The Beach Boys - 1969
It's automatic when I Talk with old friends The conversation turns to Girls we knew when their Hair was soft and long and the Beach was the place to go Suntanned bodies and Waves of sunshine the California girls and a Beautiful coastline Warmed up weather Let's get together and Do it again
With a girl the lonely sea looks good Makes your nighttimes warm and out of sight
Been so long (Hey now hey now hey now hey now hey now) (Hey now hey now hey now hey now hey now)
Well I've been thinking 'bout All the places we've surfed and danced and All the faces we've missed so let's get Back together and do it again
As Far As I'm Concerned Performer(s): Nat King Cole
As far as I'm concerned That amber moon that can make the tides return Won't match the light within my eyes The night I learned that I'm the one you'll always love
As far as I'm concerned The mid day sun that can make the planets turn Is cold as ice compared with how your kisses burn And show my heart the warmth of love
Long, long ago days were empty life was oh such a slow caravan But now that you're here how the hours tumble by and the days disappear They say we live and learn but what care I If I never ever learn why robins fly away As long as they return and I love you and you love me For that's as far as I'm concerned
They say we live and learn but what care I If I never ever learn why robins fly away As long as they return and I love you and you love me For that's as far as I'm concerned
Do It Again
Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen
First release by: Steely Dan - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists
In the mornin you go gunnin'
For the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in
But they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin'
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn't hangin'
And they put you on the street
You go back Jack do it again
Wheel turnin' 'round and 'round
You go back Jack do it again
When you know she's no high climber
Then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer
And you're sure you're near the end
Then you love a little wild one
And she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know she's smilin'
You'll be on your knees tomorrow
You go back Jack do it again
Wheel turnin' 'round and 'round
You go back Jack do it again
Now you swear and kick and beg us
That you're not a gamblin' man
Then you find you're back in Vegas
With a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money
So you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey
You must put them on the table
You go back Jack do it again
Wheel turnin' 'round and 'round
You go back Jack do it again
