    Life's Too Short
    Performer(s): The Lafayettes



    Well life's too short
    And you're too sweet
    Every day of your life, child
    You've got to spend with me

    Now let me tell you 'bout Sally
    She's a-really tough
    And girl you know about Emmy
    She's cool enough

    Oh, but life's too short to mess around
    Don't you give me no stuff, child
    And don't you put me down

    A-no no, a-no no, a-no no, a-no
    I, I keep a-tellin' you, I, I keep a-tellin' you
    I, I keep a-tellin' you, aah

    I, I said I told a-you baby
    I said I told-a you all
    I said, bah, oh-hoh-hoh-hoh-hooooh
    And you're too wild
    To pass me by, baby
    With just a kiss and a smile
    We gotta up and get married
    Before my hair turns gray
    I need you for real, baby
    I've had my time to play

    Now c'mon, a-c'mon
    A-c'mon, don't make me so blue
    (C'mon, c'mon)
    A-hey-hey, a-hey-hey
    (C'mon, c'mon)
    A-hey-hey, a-hey-hey ...

    Niks Voor Mij
    English Title: But Not For Me
    Composer(s): George Gershwin; Ira Gershwin;
    Chef van Dijk; Max Tak
    Performer(s): Greetje Kauffeld



    Al wil ik nog zo graag, ik maak geen kans
    Als ik een dansje waag, 'k heb nooit eens sjans
    Ik maak me steeds weer druk, maar ik hoor eigenlijk
    Thuis in zo'n treurig stuk van Heyermans
    Ik lijk wel gek, dat ik het nog probeer
    Maar ik ben niet gek, ik pik het ook niet meer
    Het is voorgoed voorbij, weg met de dromerij liefde is niks voor mij

    Al wil ik nog zo graag, ik maak geen kans
    Als ik een dansje waag, 'k heb nooit eens sjans

    Ik lijk wel gek, dat ik het nog probeer
    Maar ik ben niet gek, ik pik het ook niet meer

    Liefde is niks voor mij...

    Life's Little Ups And Downs
    Composer(s): Margaret Ann Rich
    First recording/First release by: Charlie Rich - 1969
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I don't know how to tell her I didn't get that raise in pay today
    And I know how much she wanted the dress in Baker's window
    And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait
    And cancel all the plans she made to celebrate
    But I can count on her to take it with a smile and not a frown

    She knows that life has it's little ups and downs
    Like ponies on a merry-go-round
    And no one grabs the brass ring everytime
    But she don't mind
    She wears a gold ring on her finger
    And I'm so glad that it's mine

    The new house plans we've had so long
    I guess will gather dust another year
    And the daffodils are bloomin' that she planted way last fall
    Up on the hill, over by the gate
    Lord knows I hate to say again, we'll have to wait
    But you can bet she'll just take it with a smile and not a frown

    She knows that life has it's little ups and downs
    Like ponies on a merry-go-round
    And no one grabs the brass ring everytime
    But she don't mind
    She wears a gold ring on her finger
    And I'm so glad that it's mine
    She wears a gold ring on her finger
    And I'm so glad that it's mine

    Composer(s): Ira Gershwin; George Gershwin
    Originally performed by: Ginger Rogers & Willie Howard
    Covered by various other artists



    They're writing songs of love, but not for me
    A lucky star's above, but not for me
    With love to lead the way
    I found more clouds are gray
    Than any rainy day, could guarantee

    I was a fool to fall, and get that way
    I should have known the price, I'd have to pay
    Although I can't dismiss
    The memory of his kiss
    I guess he's not, for me

    Just to possess you my life’s desire

    Just to be near to protect and revere you

    Life's Been Good
    Composer(s): Joe Walsh
    Performer(s): Joe Walsh; Eagles



    I have a mansion but forget the price
    Ain't never been there, they tell me its nice
    I live in hotels, tear out the walls
    I have accountants pay for it all

    They say I'm crazy but I have a have a good time
    I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
    Life's been good to me so far

    My Maseratti does one-eighty-five
    I lost my license, now I dont drive
    I have a limo, ride in the back
    I lock the doors in case I'm attacked

    I'm making records, my fans they can't wait
    They write me letters, tell me I'm great
    So I got me an office, gold records on the wall
    Just leave a message, maybe I'll call

    Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through
    I cant complain but sometimes I still do
    Life's been good to me so far

    I go to parties sometimes until four
    It's hard to leave when you can't find the door
    It's tough to handle this fortune and fame
    Everybody's so different, I haven't changed

    They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time
    I keep on goin' guess I'll never know why
    Life's been good to me so far

    I could have loved you girl
    Like a planet
    I could have chained your heart
    To a star
    But it really doesn't matter at all
    No it really doesn't matter at all
    Life's a gas,
    I hope it's gonna last

    I could have built a house
    On the ocean
    I could have placed your love
    In the sky
    I could have turned you
    Into a priestess
    I could have burned
    Your fate in the sand

    First release by: Clarence "Frogman" Henry - 1960
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I don't know why I love you but I do
    I don't know why I cry so but I do
    I only know I'm lonely and that I want you only
    I don't know why I love you but I do

    I can't sleep nights because I feel so restless
    I don't know what to do, I feel so helpless
    And since you've been away, I cry both night and day
    I don't know why I love you but I do

    My days have been so lonely
    My nights have been so blue
    I don't know how I manage, but I do

    Each night I sit alone and tell myself
    That I will fall in love with someone else
    I guess I'm wastin' time but I've got to clear my mind
    I don't know why I love you but I do

    Life Upon The Wicked Stage
    Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II - Jerome Kern
    Performer(s): Judy Garland
    and multiple other artists



    Why do stage struck maidens clamor
    To be actin' in the drammer?

    We've heard say
    You are gay
    Night and day

    Oh, go 'way!

    We drink water from a dipper
    You drink champagne from a slipper

    Tho' it seems cruel to bust
    All your dreams
    Still I must
    Here's the truth I tell you
    Life upon the wicked stage
    Ain't ever what a girl supposes
    Stage door Johnnies aren't raging
    Over you with gems and roses
    When you let a feller hold your hand (which means an extra beer or sandwich)
    Ev'rybody whispers: "Ain't her life a whirl?"
    Though you're warned against a "roué"
    Ruining your reputation
    I have played around
    The one night trade around
    A great big nation
    Wild old men who give you jewels and sables
    Only live in Aesop's Fables
    Life upon the wicked stage
    Ain't nothin' for a girl

    Though we've listened to you moan and grieve, you
    Must pardon us if we do not believe you
    There is no doubt
    You're crazy about
    Your awful stage!

    I admit it's fun
    To smear my face with paint
    Causing ev'ryone
    To think I'm what I ain't
    And I like to play a demi-mondy role
    With soul!
    Ask the hero does he
    Like the way I lure
    When I play a hussy
    Or a paramour
    Yet when once the curtain's down
    My life is pure
    And how I dread it!

    Life upon the wicked stage
    Ain't ever what a girl supposes
    Stage door Johnnies aren't raging
    Over you with gems and roses

    If some gentleman would talk with reason
    I would cancel all next season
    Life upon the wicked stage
    Ain't nothin' for a girl!

    You'd be back the season after!

    Love is funny or it's sad
    Or it's quiet or it's mad
    It's a good thing or it's bad
    But beautiful!
    Beautiful to take a chance
    And if you fall, you fall
    And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all
    Love is tearful or it's gay
    It's a problem or it's play
    It's a heartache either way
    But beautiful!
    And I'm thinking if you were mine
    I'd never let you go
    And that would be but beautiful I know

    Life Still Goes On (I'm Lonely)
    Composer(s): C.F. Turner
    Performer(s): Bachman-Turner Overdrive



    Standin' in the street, shaved, I'm washed and neat
    And the time is mine
    But I don't even know where I'm goin'
    Been too long in town, just workin' right tied down
    But I got my pay
    And I'm willin' to spend what I'm earnin'
    Maybe over town, where the say love can be found anytime of day
    I'll be lookin' you know I've been wishin'
    Need a lovin' face, nice hair, some fancy lace
    Someone soft and warm
    Then those nights spent alone won't seem wasted

    Get me on down, get me into the place
    Where the beat of the street, and the people that meet
    Take the blues far away
    'Cause I'm lonely, ya baby I'm lonely
    And life still goes on where I'm goin'

    Listen
    Can you hear me now
    Can you hear me I'm callin' for lovin'
    Hear me
    Won't you listen now
    Can you hear me I'm callin' for lovin'

    Are you busy
    Baby are you busy tonight
    Are you busy
    Baby are you busy tonight
    Are you busy
    Please don't be busy tonight

    I've been waiting while the whole world gets to you
    I've been patient got my place in line
    I know you love me but you don't know you do
    How can you tell if you won't give it some time

    Let me make your mind up
    Hold you till my time's up
    Baby don't you tell me that you're busy tonight
    Say you've got a fever
    Say you need a breather
    But baby please don't be busy tonight

    Can you forget all the others you've known
    We'll make this turn out right
    We'll close the door on a world of our own
    And the heat of our love will light up the night

    Let my love surround you
    Now that I have found you
    Baby don't you tell me that you're busy tonight
    Give them any reason
    Say you're out of season
    But baby please don't be busy tonight, tonight

    When you're around I feel you watching me
    Your eyes are saying you're still unsure
    Why be afraid of something that's just got to be
    Give me a chance to make you feel secure

    Let me make your mind up
    Hold me till my time's up
    Baby don't you tell me that you're busy tonight
    Say you've got a fever
    Say you need a breather
    But baby please don't be busy tonight (tonight) tonight

    The heat of our love will light up the night

    Let my love surround you
    Now that I have found you
    Baby don't you tell me that you're busy tonight
    Give them any reason
    Say you're out of season
    Oh baby please say you're busy
    Busy with me tonight
    Oh tonight
    Oh tonight

    Are you busy
    Baby are you busy tonight
    Are you busy
    Baby are you busy tonight

    Jag Har Tänkt På Dej
    ((Adapted from: Mama, You Been On My Mind (by Bob Dylan) - 1964; Baby You've Been On My Mind (by Linda Ronstadt) - 1969))
    Composer(s): Bob Dylan - Mikael Wiehe
    Performer(s): Mikael Wiehe - 2004



    Det kan va solen när den sänker sej
    över fjärden. Eller vägskälet där jag står
    Kanske är det vädret eller nåt med hur jag mår
    som gör att jag har tänkt på dej

    Jag vill inte bråka, få nu inte spel, bli inte sur
    Jag kräver inget. Eller säger det finns bara du
    Jag vankar inte heller av och an i nån sorts bur
    Jag har bara tänkt på dej

    Fast jag kanske kan va inskränkt och min värld kan verka trång
    så har jag aldrig brytt mej om var du har kommit från
    Och det rör mej inte heller vem du vaknar med imorgon
    fastän jag har tänkt på dej

    Jag menar, jag står inte här och vill ha svar som ”ja” och ”nej”
    Du måste fatta. Du går din egen väg
    Jag bara mumlar för mej själv som om det inte fanns ett skäl
    dom gånger jag har tänkt på dej

    Så när du vaknar upp på morgonen så titta dej i spegeln
    Jag finns där inte bredvid dej. Mej har du inte kvar
    Jag bara undrar för mej själv om du kan se dej lika klart
    som nån som har tänkt på dej

    Busy Line
    Composer(s): Semos; Frank Stanton; Francis Hayward
    Performer(s): Rose Murphy
    and various other artists



    I put a nickel in the telephone, dialled my baby’s number
    Got a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
    Each time I tried I got a busy tone
    Not my baby’s number
    Just a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line

    Called his uncle in Jamaica
    Left a message with the baker
    Even checked the number in the telephone book
    Got so awfully, awfully worried
    To my baby’s house I hurried
    When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook

    And as I walked up to my baby - then
    I got my baby’s number
    He was busy in the parlour doing fine
    Busy kissing someone else
    While I was keeping busy
    Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line

    ....busy line

    Just brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line

    Just biz-biz-biz-biz busy line

    Biz-biz busy line
    I put my nickel in the telephone
    Dialled my baby’s number
    Got a brrr, brrr, brrr, ... line
    Each time I tried I got a busy tone
    Not my baby’s number
    Just a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line

    In Jamaica, left a message with the baker
    Even checked his number in the telephone book
    Got so awfully, awfully worried
    To my baby’s house I hurried
    When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook, hook, hook

    Walked up to my baby - then
    I got my baby’s number
    He was busy in the parlour doing fine
    Busy kissing someone else
    While I was keeping busy
    Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line

    Life On Mars?
    ((Adapted from: Life On Mars (by David Bowie) - 1971))
    ((Swedish Version: Liv På Mars (by Frida) - 1975))
    Composer(s): David Bowie - Seu Jorge
    Performer(s): Seu Jorge - 2004



    Quando as coisas do coracao
    Nao consegue compreender
    O que a mente nao faz questao
    E nem tem forcas para obedecer
    Quantos sonhos ja destrui
    E deixei escapar das maos
    E se o futuro assim permitir
    Nao pretendo viver em vao
    Meu amor nao estamos sos
    Tem um mundo a esperar por nos
    Do infinito do ceu azul
    Pode ter vida em marte
    Entao vem ca
    Me da a sua lingua
    Entao vem
    Eu quero abracar voce
    Seu poder vem do sol
    Minha medida
    Entao vem
    Vamos viver a vida
    Entao vem
    Se nao eu vou perder quem sou
    Vou querer me mudar
    Para uma Life on Mars

    Busy Doing Nothing
    Composer(s): Jimmy Van Heusen; Johnny Burke
    Performer(s): Bing Crosby
    and various other artists



    La-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

    We're busy doin' nothin'
    Workin' the whole day through
    Tryin' to find lots of things not to do
    We're busy goin' nowhere
    Isn't it just a crime
    We'd like to be unhappy, but
    We never do have the time

    I have to watch the river
    To see that it doesn't stop
    And stick around the rosebuds
    So they'll know when to pop
    And keep the crickets cheerful
    They're really a solemn bunch
    Hustle, bustle
    And only an hour for lunch

    La-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la
    La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

    We're busy doin' nothin'
    Workin' the whole day through
    Tryin' to find lots of things not to do
    We're busy goin' nowhere
    Isn't it just a crime
    We'd like to be unhappy, but
    We never do have the time

    I have to wake the Sun up
    He's liable to sleep all day
    And then inspect the rainbows
    So they'll be bright and gay
    I must rehearse the songbirds
    To see that they sing in key
    Hustle, bustle
    And never a moment free

    We're busy doin' nothin'
    Workin' the whole day through
    Tryin' to find lots of things not to do
    We're busy going nowhere
    Isn't it just a crime
    We'd like to be unhappy, but
    We never do have the time

    I have to meet a turtle
    I'm teachin' him how to swim
    Then I have to shine the dewdrops
    You know they're looking rather dim
    I told my friend, the robin
    I'd buy him a brand new vest
    Hustle, bustle
    We never do have
    We never do have
    We never do, never do
    Never do, never do, never do have the time
    Never do have the time

    Life On Mars
    Composer(s): David Bowie
    First release by: David Bowie - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages:
    1975 - Liv På Mars (by Frida)
    2004 - Life On Mars? (by Seu Jorge)



    It's a god-awful small affair
    To the girl with the mousy hair
    But her mummy is yelling "No"
    And her daddy has told her to go
    But her friend is nowhere to be seen
    Now she walks through her sunken dream
    To the seat with the clearest view
    And she's hooked to the silver screen
    But the film is a saddening bore
    For she's lived it ten times or more
    She could spit in the eyes of fools
    As they ask her to focus on

    Sailors fighting in the dance hall
    Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
    It's the freakiest show
    Take a look at the Lawman
    Beating up the wrong guy
    Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
    He's in the best selling show
    Is there life on Mars?

    It's on Amerikas tortured brow
    That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
    Now the workers have struck for fame
    'Cause Lennon's on sale again
    See the mice in their million hordes
    From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
    Rule Britannia is out of bounds
    To my mother, my dog, and clowns
    But the film is a saddening bore
    'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
    It's about to be writ again
    As I ask you to focus on

    Sailors fighting in the dance hall
    Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
    It's the freakiest show
    Take a look at the Lawman
    Beating up the wrong guy
    Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
    He's in the best selling show
    Is there life on Mars?

    Sono Un Fallito
    English & French Titles: Busted; Fauché
    Composer(s): Don Backy; Mike DelPrete; Harlan Howard
    Performer(s): Adriano Celentano



    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    Coro: nessuno crede in te

    Non ho più nessuno, mi sento davvero un fallito
    senza soldi, senza casa, senza te
    Io spero soltanto che questa sfortuna
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    mi debba lasciare, dovrà pur finire
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    e cerco qualcuno che possa prestarmi dei soldi
    Coro: nessuno crede in te

    Per giunta fra poco sarà l'onomastico suo
    e per farmi perdonare vorrei...
    vorrei regalarti una bella pelliccia
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    ma non ho il coraggio di farmi vedere
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    io sono un fallito, mi spiace e non posso cambiare
    Coro: nessuno crede in te

    Nessuno mi aiuta, nessuno mi tende la mano
    e un'idea sta giungendo piano
    Io sono un fallito, un fallito d'onore
    per questo ho vergogna di farmi vedere
    un treno io prendo e non mi farò più sentire
    Coro: nessuno crede in te

    No, no, nessuno!
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    No, no, nessuno!
    Coro: nessuno crede in te
    No, no, nessuno!
    Coro: nessuno crede in te

    Liv På Mars
    ((Adapted from: Life On Mars (by David Bowie) - 1971))
    ((Portuguese Version: Life On Mars? (by Seu Jorge) - 2004))
    Composer(s): David Bowie - Owe Junsjö
    Performer(s): Frida - 1975



    Det är grått, det är sent och tyst
    För en flicka som ingen kysst
    Sen en gryning för länge sen
    Ingen vet när det händer igen
    Nu går hon genom stan, stannar så
    Och hon köper biljett, en blå
    Till det landet där drömmar väcks
    Ljuset på biografen släcks

    Men den filmen är seg och trist
    Som den var när hon såg den sist
    Hon kan varje sen utantill
    Ser hjältinnan som kysser sin hjälte

    Tårarna som rinner
    Stelnar i en stumps sista bild
    En sån fruktansvärd film
    Hon går genom staden
    Tittar upp mot rymden
    Raden utav bleka stjärnors ljus
    Som står högt över mörka hus
    Finns det liv på mars?

    Och från ett glömskans kalejdoskop
    Helt utan saknad och enslig gråt
    Går hon sakta, så sakta hem
    Till sin vardag, nio till fem
    Som en skepnad bland många fler
    Men blir det aldrig nånting mer
    Någonting riktigt rart och snällt
    Som i den dröm som gavs i kväll

    Men den filmen är seg och trist
    Som den var när hon såg den sist
    Hon kan varje sen utantill
    Ser hjältinnan som kysser sin hjälte

    Tårarna som rinner
    Stelnar i en stumps sista bild
    En sån fruktansvärd film
    Hon går genom staden
    Tittar upp mot rymden
    Raden utav bleka stjärnors ljus
    Som står högt över mörka hus
    Finns det liv på mars?
