    Like China
    Composer(s): Phil Collins
    Performer(s): Phil Collins



    My mom and daddy both say
    I must be crazy to be this infatuated
    But I know you know
    We got something special never felt before
    You get me going just looking at you
    And the feeling's not hard to recognise so
    Alright I'll come out in the open with it
    Will you walk out with me.
    'Cause you're the first girl I've ever loved
    Tell me do you feel the same way
    Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
    Cause I know who I am
    Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars
    You're just like a picture book standing there
    But I can't go on
    No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way that I do
    I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
    I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
    You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
    'Cause I know it's your first time
    Your mum and dad don't like me
    And they tell me every time I call around to see you
    I don't know why
    Cause I always straighten my tie and comb my hair
    I know your brother thinks that
    I'm a limp wrested wimp from the other side of town
    I know he's got me wrong
    Because I'm really not like that, I'll tell you why
    You're the first girl I've ever loved
    Tell me do you feel the same way
    Well I'll show you I'm not like all the rest
    'Cause I know who I am
    I remember the very first time I held your hand
    And that was the last time you were so close to me
    But I can't go on
    No, I can't go on thinking you don't feel the same way as I do
    I'll be so careful I'll hold you like china
    I'll promise not to hurt you I'll hold you like china
    You won't feel nothing, I'll hold you like china
    'Cause I know it's your first time
    I know you know and now I want to, I want to tell everybody
    I know you know and now I want them all to see ...

    By Love Possessed
    Composer(s): Phil Lampkin; J. Joseph Leahy; Carl Sigman
    Performer(s): Della Reese



    By love possessed, by love possessed, by love possessed am I
    From the moment that we caressed, by love possessed was I
    From the moment we kissed all my plans to resist were replaced by a sigh
    Your lips were warm on mine and tender was your touch
    I tried so not to care but suddenly I care too much
    All my fears seem to come to rest, by love possessed was I
    When your arms held me tight could I question the night, could I ask myself why
    I only know I needed you so
    And whether the end be high or low
    In the valley or somewhere atop the crest
    By love possessed, by love possessed, by love possessed am I

    Like Animals
    From the musical "Doctor Dolittle"
    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse - Samantha Eggar
    Performer(s): Rex Harrison


    I do not understand the human race

    It has so little love for creatures with a different face
    Treating animals like people is no madness or disgrace
    I do not understand the human race

    I wonder
    Why do we treat animals like animals?
    Animals treat us so very well
    The devoted ways they serve us
    And protect us when we’re nervous
    Oh, they really don’t deserve us
    All we give them is hell!

    Tell me how else man repays them
    Do we ever think to praise them?
    No we don’t, and this dismays them You can tell

    We’re riddled with ingratitude
    We give no love or latitude
    In every way our attitude
    Is, well, like animals

    No, no — that’s not what I mean

    I mean
    Why do we treat animals like animals?
    How can people be so inhumane?
    Cows and chickens work to feed us
    Dogs and horses show they need us
    And though cats don’t always heed us
    Their affection is plain

    What do we do? We neglect them
    We do nothing to protect them
    We reject them, don’t expect them
    To complain
    We ignore them or we beat them
    When we’re hungry then we eat them
    It’s appalling how we treat them
    It’s insane!
    Like animals!

    We humiliate and murder and confine them
    We create their wretched status
    Then we use it to malign them

    I mean
    Why should we say, “treated like a dog”
    Why should we say, “working like a horse”
    Why should we say, “eating like a hog”
    When what we mean is “eating like a man”?
    Don’t we? Of course!

    A man of ill repute is called a “weasel” or a “rat”
    A woman you dislike becomes a “vixen” or a “cat”
    A family that is blessed
    With healthy reproductive habits
    Occasions the remark,
    "Well you know them, they “breed like rabbits”!

    “He’s as stubborn as a mule!”
    “He’s as stupid as an ox!”
    “He’s as slimy as a snake!”
    “He’s as crafty as a fox!”

    Remarks like that really get my goat!

    Why don’t we say, “noble as a frog”?
    Or, why can’t we say, “wealthy as a hen”?
    True, we say, “devoted as a dog”
    But what we should say is
    “Chic as a giraffe,”
    “Pretty as a pig,” eh?
    That’ll be the big day
    Won’t it? But when?
    But when?
    But when?

    When will we stop treating them like animals?
    Is the human race entirely mad?
    Women see a baby goatskin
    Or a lambskin or a stoatskin
    And to them it’s just a coatskin
    Oh, it’s terribly sad!

    When you dress in suede or leather
    Or some fancy fur or feather
    Do you stop and wonder whether
    For a fad
    You have killed some beast or other
    And you’re wearing someone’s brother
    Or perhaps it’s someone’s mother
    In which you’re clad?

    Like animals! Like animals!
    Like animals

    Well, it’s true, we do not live in a zoo
    But man is an animal too
    So why can’t you
    Like me
    Like animals?
    ... animals

    By Candlelight
    Performer(s): Kay Armen



    When there’s pink champagne by candlelight
    We will bring champagne by candlelight
    While the bubbles rise, a violin will improvise
    And we’ll drink a toast by candlelight

    Then we’ll talk, but not for very long
    Then we’ll dance, but not for very long
    For when I hold you, not a word will wake the night
    And you’ll understand, by candlelight

    While the bubbles rise, a violin will improvise
    And we’ll drink a toast by candlelight

    Then we’ll talk, but not for very long
    Then we’ll dance, but not for very long
    For when I hold you, not a word will wake the night
    And you’ll understand, by candlelight

    Like An Old Time Movie
    Composer(s): John Phillips
    Performer(s): Scott McKenzie



    Every time I see you
    It's just because you're blue
    You don't really need me
    The way that I need you
    Don't come on so groovy
    You do better mean
    You're like an old time movie
    One that I already seen

    Baby, yes I need your love
    But I'm not gonna get this low
    Don't you think that I can tell
    When you've no place else to go
    Could it be you misunderstood
    When you tried to read my mind
    Cause this time you will find
    I'm gonna let you go
    Every time I see you

    You're like an old time movie
    Baby, yes I need your love
    But I'm not gonna get this low
    Don't you think that I can tell
    When you've got no place else to go
    Could it be you understood
    When you tried to read my mind
    Cause this time you will find
    I'm gonna let you go

    and various other artists



    I appreciate the simple things
    'Cause I'm awf'lly fond of getting
    Love in a natural setting
    This is what I call the simple things
    Just a winding stream
    Where I can drift and dream
    And now I'm waiting for you

    By a waterfall, I'm calling you-oo-oo-oo
    We can share it all beneath a ceiling of blue
    We'll spend a heavenly day
    Here where the whispering waters play
    There's a whippoorwill that's calling you-oo-oo-oo
    By a waterfall, he's dreaming too
    There's a magic melody
    Mother Nature sings to me
    Beside a waterfall with you

    Performer(s): The Association



    Stepping off a stone, while I'm walking alone
    Walking all alone, like always
    Got me a new car, it doesn't get me too far
    I'm all out of gas, like always

    Got to pay the rent, but all my money's spent
    All my money's spent, like always
    I wonder where my pay went
    Missed another payment
    I'm all out of bread, like always

    Girl, let the world have my money
    I don't care
    Girl, make my troubles seem funny and small
    In no time at all

    Things have got to move, I've been to long in this groove
    Hung up in this groove, like always
    Things are getting better, ever since I met her
    Oh, oh, there she goes, like always
    Like always, like always

    Mon frère éléphant s'endort tranquille
    Le grand prédateur blanc n'est pas là
    Ouwéyé Bwana
    L'animal cruel est dans la ville
    La savane est calme au vent qui va
    Iléyé Laba

    Le chant de la nuit s'élève à peine

    La saison des pluies n'est plus lointaine

    Ma sœur antilope court son rêve

    Ouwéyé Bwana
    Dans la plaine quand le jour se lève
    va couler un fleuve d'impalas
    Iléyé Laba

    Le rhinocéros, blanc de poussière
    Wowo Bwana
    sait que le ciel porte des rivières
    Ne Reviens Pas

    Venez frères et dansez

    L'animal cruel est dans la ville
    La savane est calme au vent qui va
    Iléyé Laba

    Les 4X4 ont filé comme des hyènes
    Wowo Bwana
    Laissant des carcasses par centaines
    Ne Reviens Pas

    Venez frères et dansez
    Bwana dort

    I made it through the wilderness

    Buzzin' Fly
    Composer(s): Tim Buckley
    Originally performed by: Tim Buckley
    Covered by: Dredd Foole; Keith Sykes; Kathryn Williams



    Just like a buzzin' fly
    I come into your life
    Now I float away
    Like honey in the sun
    Was it right or wrong
    I couldn't sing that song anyway

    Oh, but darlin'
    Now I remember
    How the sun shown down
    And how it warmed your prayin' smile
    When all the love was there

    You're the one I talk about
    You're the one I think about
    Everywhere I go
    And sometimes honey
    In the mornin'
    Lord, I miss you so

    That's how I know I found a home
    That's how I know I found a home

    Oh, hear the mountains singing
    Lord, I can hear them ringing, darlin'
    Out your name
    And tell me if you know
    Just how the river flows
    Down to the sea

    Now I wanna know
    Everything about you
    I wanna know
    Everything about you

    What makes ya smile
    What makes ya wild
    What makes ya love me this way
    Darlin' I wanna know
    Darlin' I wanna know

    You're the one I talk about
    You're the one I think about
    Everywhere I go
    And sometimes honey
    In the mornin'
    Lord, I miss you so

    That's how I know I found a home
    That's how I know I found a home

    A-walkin' hand in hand
    And all along the sand
    A seabird knew your name
    He knew your love was growin'
    Lord, I think it knows it's flowin'
    Thru you and me

    Ah, tell me darlin'
    When I should leave you,
    Ah, tell me darlin'
    I don't want to grieve you....

    Just like a buzzin' fly
    I come into your life
    Now I float away
    Like honey in the sun
    Was it right or wrong
    I couldn't sing that song anyway

    Oh, but darlin'
    Now I remember
    How the sun shown down

    Like A Sunday Morning
    Composer(s): Joel Diamond - Allan Kenneth
    Performer(s): Maureen McGovern



    You're just like a Sunday morning
    Quiet and warm and moving slow
    Put your hand in my hand
    Let me dream while I can
    Oh, how I love you so

    Life is made of milk and honey
    I always thought that line was a lie
    But it turns out it's true
    'Cause the sweetness of you is so real
    That it makes me want to cry

    Oh, you're a holiday weekend
    The key that unlocks the door
    You're my friend and my lover
    The dream I've been looking for
    And you're much more, you're so much more

    You're just like a Sunday morning
    Feeling so comfortable and right
    Be the wind, be the sea
    Be whatever you please, but
    Just be here on Sunday night

    Well buzz, buzz, buzz goes the bumble bee

    Seen the beauty when the skies are blue

    Composer(s): John Denver

    and multiple other artists



    Usually in the morning I'm filled with sweet belonging
    And everything is beautiful to see
    Even when it's raining, the sound of heaven singing
    Is simply joyful music to me

    Sometimes I feel like a sad song
    Like I'm all alone without you

    So many different places, a million smiling faces
    Life is so incredible to me
    Especially to be near you and how it is to touch you
    Oh paradise was made for you and me

    I know that life goes on just perfectly
    And everything is just the way that it should be
    Still there are times when my heart feels like breaking
    And anywhere is where I'd rather be

    Oh and in the night time I know that it's the right time
    To hold you close and say I love you so
    To have someone to share with
    And someone I can care with
    And that is why I wanted you to know

    Sometimes I feel like a sad song
    Like I'm all alone without you, without you

    Performer(s): Kenny Rogers
    and various other artists



    He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
    A three car garage, her own credit cards
    He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss good night
    If he could only read her mind, she'd say

    Buy me a rose, call me from work
    Open a door for me, what would it hurt
    Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
    These are the little things I need the most in my life

    Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone
    And she can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong
    'Cause lately she'd try anything to turn his head
    Would it make a difference if she said

    Buy me a rose, call me from work
    Open a door for me, what would it hurt
    Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
    These are the little things I need the most in my life

    And the more that he lives the less that he tries
    To show her the love that he hold inside
    And the more that she gives the more that he sees
    This is a story of you and me

    So I bought you a rose on the way home from work
    Opened the door to a heart that I hurt
    And I hope you notice this look in my eyes
    Cause I'm gonna make things right
    I'm gonna hold you tonight
    Do all those little things
    For the rest of your life

    Once upon a time you dressed so fine
    You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
    People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
    You thought they were all kiddin' you
    You used to laugh about
    Everybody that was hangin' out
    Now you don't talk so loud
    Now you don't seem so proud
    About having to be scrounging for your next meal

    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be without a home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?

    You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
    But you know you only used to get juiced in it
    And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
    And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
    You said you'd never compromise
    With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
    He's not selling any alibis
    As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
    And ask him do you want to make a deal?

    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?

    You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
    When they all come down and did tricks for you
    You never understood that it ain't no good
    You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
    You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
    Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
    Ain't it hard when you discover that
    He really wasn't where it's at
    After he took from you everything he could steal

    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?

    Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
    They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
    Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
    But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
    You used to be so amused
    At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
    Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
    When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
    You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal

    How does it feel
    How does it feel
    To be on your own
    With no direction home
    Like a complete unknown
    Like a rolling stone?

    Buttons And Bows
    Composer(s): Jay Livingston; Ray Evans
    Performer(s): Bob Hope
    and various other artists



    East is east and west is west
    And the wrong one I have chose
    Let's go where they keep on wearin'
    Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
    Rings and things and buttons and bows.

    Don't bury me in this prairie
    Take me where the cement grows
    Let's move down to some big town
    Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes
    And you'll stand out, in buttons and bows

    I'll love you in buckskin
    Or skirts that you've homespun
    But I'll love ya' longer, stronger
    Where yer friends don't tote a gun

    My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
    And the cactus hurts my toes
    Let's vamoose where gals keep a-usin'
    Those silks and satins and linen that shows
    And I'm all yours in buttons and bows

    Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women
    In high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
    And French perfume that rocks the room
    And I'm all yours in buttons and bows.

    Buttons and bows, buttons and bows.....

    Like A Rock
    ((French Version: Comme Un Roc (by Johnny Hallyday) - 1996))
    Composer(s): Bob Seger
    First release by: Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band - 1986
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Stood there boldly
    Sweatin' in the sun
    Felt like a million
    Felt like number one
    The height of summer
    I'd never felt that strong
    Like a rock

    I was eighteen
    Didn't have a care
    Working for peanuts
    Not a dime to spare
    But I was lean and
    Solid everywhere
    Like a rock

    My hands were steady
    My eyes were clear and bright
    My walk had purpose
    My steps were quick and light
    And I held firmly
    To what I felt was right
    Like a rock

    Like a rock, I was strong as I could be
    Like a rock, nothin' ever got to me
    Like a rock, I was something to see
    Like a rock

    And I stood arrow straight
    Unencumbered by the weight
    Of all these hustlers and their schemes
    I stood proud, I stood tall
    High above it all
    I still believed in my dreams

    Twenty years now
    Where'd they go?
    twenty years
    I don't know
    sit and I wonder sometimes
    Where they've gone

    And sometimes late at night
    When I'm bathed in the firelight
    The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
    And I recall
    recall

    Like a rock. standin' arrow straight
    Like a rock, chargin' from the gate
    Like a rock, carryin' the weight
    Like a rock

    Lihe a rock, the sun upon my skin
    Like a rock, hard against the wind
    Like a rock, I see myself again
    Like a rock

    Made famous by: Helen Kane
    Covered by various other artists



    Listen, big boy
    Now that you got me made
    Goodness, but I'm afraid
    Somethin's gonna happen to you!
    Listen, big boy
    You gotta be hooked, and how
    I would die if I should lose you now!

    Button up your overcoat
    When the wind is free
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Eat an apple every day
    Get to bed by three
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Be careful crossing streets, ooh-ooh
    Cut out sweets, ooh-ooh
    Lay off meat, ooh-ooh
    You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!

    Wear your flannel underwear
    When you climb a tree
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Button up your overcoat
    When the wind is free
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    When you sass a traffic cop
    Use diplomacy
    Just take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Beware of frozen funds, ooh-ooh
    Stocks and bonds, ooh-ooh
    Dockside thugs, ooh-ooh
    You'll get a pain and ruin your bankroll!

    Keep the spoon out of your cup
    When you're drinking tea
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Don't sit on hornet's tails, ooh-ooh!
    Or on nails, ooh-ooh!
    Or third rails, ooh-ooh!
    You'll get a pain and ruin your tum-tum!

    Keep away from bootleg hooch
    When you're on a spree
    Oh, take good care of yourself
    You belong to me!

    Comme Un Roc
    ((Adapted from: Like A Rock (by Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band) - 1986))
    Composer(s): Bob Seger - Philippe Labro
    Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1996



    J'étais jeune
    J'avais pas 20 ans
    J'étais increvable
    J'avais tout mon temps
    J'avais toute ma force
    On ne pouvait pas me bouger
    Comme un roc

    J'avais 20 ans
    Les choses étaient claires
    J'ai trouvé une femme
    Une femme que j'aimais
    Y avait pas de mystère
    Un amour très fort
    Comme roc

    Les deux mains valides
    Tranquilles et solides
    J'avais tout construit
    Dans ma vie
    Y avait toi et moi
    Je me tenais tout droit
    Comme un roc

    Comme un roc
    J'avais confiance en la vie
    Comme un roc
    Il pouvait rien m'arriver
    Comme un roc
    C'était parti pour durer
    Comme un roc

    Et je criais mon espoir de réussir
    Ne pas mentir ni tromper ni blesser
    J'étais fier j'étais fort
    Je défiais la mort
    Comme un roc
    Oh, je croyais à tous mes rêves

    Comme un roc

    J'avais 20 ans
    Les choses étaient claires
    J'ai trouvé une femme
    Une femme que j'aimais
    Y avait pas de mystère
    Un amour très fort
    Comme un roc

    Comme un roc
    J'avais confiance en la vie
    Comme un roc
    Il pouvait rien m'arriver
    Comme un roc
    C'était parti pour durer
    Comme un roc

    Comme un roc
    Je criais mon espoir
    Comme un roc
    Je défiais la mort
    Oh, comme un roc
    Je croyais à tous mes rêves
    Comme un roc

    Comme un roc
    J'avais confiance en la vie
    Comme un roc
    Il pouvait rien m'arriver
    Comme un roc
    C'était parti pour durer
    Comme un roc

    Comme un roc...

    Butterscotch Candy And Strawberry Pie
    Composer(s): Roberts
    Performer(s): Jack Lewis & The Americans



    Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
    Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
    'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
    Well I met my baby in a goodies shop
    Sellin' butterscotch candy and soda pop and strawberry pie
    Now I said, pretty baby I love your eyes
    But in the back of my mind were those strawberry pies
    So I said, pretty baby won't you please be mine
    Butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
    Gonna love my baby till the day that I die
    'Cause of butterscotch candy and strawberry pie
    Now she said yes and we were wed
    In a butterscotch church on a strawberry bed
    In the middle of May on the sunniest day of all
    Now I'll eat my fill of strawberry pie
    And butterscotch candy till the day that I die
    My baby and I gonna have ourselves a ball
