Little Honda Composer(s): Brian Wilson - Mike Love First release by: The Beach Boys - 1964 Covered by multiple other artists
Go! I'm gonna wake you up early cause I'm gonna take a ride with you We're going down to the Honda shop, I'll tell you what we're gonna do Put on a ragged sweatshirt, I'll take you anywhere you want me to
First gear, it's all right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Second gear, I'll lean right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Third gear, hang on tight (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Faster, it's all right
It's not a big motorcycle Just a groovy little motorbike It's more fun than a barrel of monkeys That two-wheeled bike We'll ride on out of the town To any place I know you like
First gear, it's all right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Second gear, I'll lean right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Third gear, hang on tight (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Faster, it's all right
It climbs the hills like a Matchless 'Cause my Honda' built really light When I go in to the turns Better hang on tight I'd better turn on the lights So we can ride my Honda tonight
First gear, it's all right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Second gear, I'll lean right (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Third gear, hang on tight (Honda, Honda, go faster, faster) Faster, it's all right
Make Love Stay Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Now that we love Now that the lonely nights are over How do we make love stay? Now that we know The fire can burn bright or merely smolder How do we keep it from dying away?
Elusive as dreams Barely remembered in the morning Love like a phantom flies But held in the heart It pales like the empty smile adorning A statue with sightless eyes
Moments fleet, taste sweet within the rapture When precious flesh is greedily consumed But mystery's a thing not easily captured And once deceased not easily exhumed
Now that we love Now that the lonely nights are over How do we make love stay?
Moments fleet, taste so sweet within the rapture When precious flesh is greedily consumed But mystery's a thing not easily captured And once deceased not easily exhumed
Now that we loved Look at the moonless night and tell me How do we make love stay?

Little Green Men Composer(s): Steve Vai Performer(s): Steve Vai
We know ya come a long way We hope that your ship is o.k. We hope you're gonna stick around Maybe to save the day
Liw liw, liw liw Liw liw, liw
You look - a real keen Even though you are green With those big, large heads Something off of the movie screen

Little green men, they look so funny Funny green men I want one to have and to hold and to Silly green men Where do they come from? Should we run away, should we start to pray Or is it a movie that they're filming?
Are the people on your planet Usually in a frantic panic like they are here Most of the time? (bla...Im freakin out...) Wait a minute, you, is it true about Einstein's theory and Darwin's too? What about war, the soul, the mind Love, death, god, divine?
Little, little, little, little, little, little, little
Ladies & gentlemen of the world, it is my utmost privilege to announce to you that these little green men actually do exist, for they are part of the eternal past and venture from all regions of our galaxy to find homage in our earth's center Governments of the world have been very good at concealing these little visitors and preparing the public with loving movies and pleasant melodies (ya see, like that one - did ya hear that - yes) Controlled media as to cushion the arrival of our little friends You see, throughout history many people have claimed to see strange lights in the sky
(oh no)
Well, the truth of the matter is that these light, and beings, will only reveal themselves to those who are pure of heart, for these enlightened aliens leave permanent imprinted information on the psyche of those chosen humans, only to be revealed to our deteriorating planet at the point in which our civilization shall enter the new age of light without heat
Little green men about four foot one Maybe they want to have some fun Little green men about 4 foot two Maybe he wants to mate with you (ooh, ah, eee, etc...)(simulated alien sex sequence) Little green men about four foot three Maybe they wanna be set free
We're hoping that the human race will become part of endless time We love you all and want you to know that in your heart and in your soul there is power bigger than the world
Little green men about four foot Maybe they wanna kick some butt Mo fo Uuuu, aaaa, eeee, grrr...
Little green men, they look so funny Funny green men I want one to have and to hold and to Silly green men Where do they come from? Should we run away, should we start to pray Or is it a movie that they're filming?

Make It Good Composer(s): Dennis Wilson; Darryl Dragon Performer(s): The Beach Boys
Look at me Funny face That's not you A wrinkled nose A tear You're crying
Oh Rest your head Cry on me Don't be afraid I'll stay with you I know you'll make it And you'll make it good And you'll make it good And you'll make it good
All of my life I haven't known much All I know Is what I feel And what I feel And what I feel Love I'm in love Love Love
Little Green Apples Composer(s): Bobby Russell First release by: Roger Miller - 1968 Covered by multiple other artists
And I wake up in the mornin' With my hair down in my eyes and she says "Hi" And I stumble to the breakfast table While the kids are goin' off to school goodbye And she reaches out 'n' takes my hand And squeezes it 'n' says "How ya feelin', hon?" And I look across at smilin' lips That warm my heart and see my mornin' sun
And if that's not lovin' me Then all I've got to say God didn't make little green apples And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime And there's no such thing as Doctor Seuss Or Disneyland, and Mother Goose, no nursery rhyme God didn't make little green apples And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime And when my self is feelin' low I think about her face aglow and ease my mind
Sometimes I call her up at home knowin' she's busy And ask her if she could get away and meet me And maybe we could grab a bite to eat And she drops what she's doin' and she hurries down to meet me And I'm always late But she sits waitin' patiently and smiles when she first sees me 'cause she's made that way
And if that ain't lovin' me Then all I've got to say God didn't make little green apples And it don't snow in Minneapolis when the winter comes And there's no such thing as make-believe Puppy dogs, autumn leaves 'n' BB guns
God didn't make little green apples And it don't rain in Indianapolis
Little Green Composer(s): Joni Mitchell Performer(s): Joni Mitchell; Lesley Olsher
Born with the moon in Cancer Choose her a name she will answer to Call her green and the winters cannot fade her Call her green for the children who've made her Little green, be a gypsy dancer
He went to California Hearing that everything's warmer there So you write him a letter and say, "Her eyes are blue" He sends you a poem and she's lost to you Little green, he's a non-conformer
Just a little green Like the color when the spring is born There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow Just a little green Like the nights when the Northern lights perform There'll be icicles and birthday clothes And sometimes there'll be sorrow
Child with a child pretending Weary of lies you are sending home So you sign all the papers in the family name You're sad and you're sorry, but you're not ashamed Little green, have a happy ending
Just a little green Like the color when the spring is born There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow Just a little green Like the nights when the Northern lights perform There'll be icicles and birthday clothes And sometimes there'll be sorrow
Make It Another Old-Fashioned, Please Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Ethel Merman and various other artists
Since I went on the wagon, I'm certain drink is a major crime For when you lay off the liquor, you feel so much slicker Well that is, most of the time But there are moments, sooner or later When it's tough, I got to say, love to say ... Waiter
Make it another old-fashioned, please Make it another, double, old-fashioned, please Make it for one who's due to join the disillusion crew Make it for one of love's new refugees
Once high in my castle, I ran to you And oh what a castle, built on a heavenly dream Then quick as a lightning flash, that castle began to crash So, make it another old-fashioned, please
Leave out the cherry Leave out the orange Leave out the bitters Just make it straight, right
Little Girl So Fine Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen - Steve Van zandt Performer(s): Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes; The Drifters
After the music had stopped I still heard it playing I moved a little closer to hear The words she was saying She said I'll never break your heart I'll never try to fake it My love is here for you All you have to do is take it Kisses sweeter than wine My little girl so fine
The night seemed to say it was right But could I believe her My heart said, it's time to go But my eyes wouldn't leave her There's always somebody trying to break your heart Somebody trying to take it My little girl tried so hard To help me make it Kisses sweeter than wine My little girl so fine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la Oh, oh, sha la la So fine Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la Oh, oh, sha la la So fine
When we danced I forgot everything and whispered Hold me tight Take a chance On what tomorrow brings Won't you be mine, be mine Be mine tonight
We walked away laughing together Into the night for ever and ever and ever Now I know I'll never break me baby's heart I'll never try to fake it I'll give her all my love All she has to do is take it Kisses sweeter than wine My little girl so fine Kisses sweeter than wine My little girl so fine Oh, oh, oh, oh Kisses sweeter than wine My little girl so fine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sha la la Oh, oh, sha la la So fine
Make It Composer(s): Steven Tyler Originally performed by: Aerosmith
Good evening people welcome to the show Got something here I want you all to know When life and people bring on primal screams You've got to think of what it's gonna take to make your dreams
Make it Don't break it I said make it Don't break it...... if ya do Then ya feel like the world's coming down on you
You know that history repeats itself What you just done so has somebody else You know you do you gotta think the past You gotta think of what it's gonna take to make it last
Make it Don't fake it Said make it Don't break it..... if ya do Bad weather pull yourself together Don't be catchin' the blues Bad weather pull yourself together What have you got to lose You're only payin' your dues
Yeaaaa.... dues is the price that you gotta pay If you don't it gets you anyway Although you know what you've been goin' through You're on the brink so think what it takes to.....
Make it Don't break it I said make it Don't fake it..... if ya do Bad weather pull yourself together Don't be catchin' the blues Bad weather pull yourself together What have you got to lose

Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh Don't you know all the world wants to laugh, aha! My dad said be an actor my son but be a comical one! They'll be standing in lines For those old honky tonk monkey shines!

Make... make em laugh Don't you know everyone wants to laugh My grandpa said go out and tell em a joke But give it plenty of hope!
Make em roar, make em scream Take a fall but a Walsh would it seem It's not of by pretending you're a dancer with grace You wiggle till they giggle and all over the place And then you get a great big custard pie in the face Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh!
