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

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

Mangiafuoco
Composer(s): Edoardo Bennato
Performer(s): Edoardo Bennato



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!...

Performer(s): France Gall



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 Is Two
Composer(s): Fulton McGrath; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Billie Holiday
and various other artists



Mandy is two
You ought to see her eyes of cornflower blue
They really look as it they actually knew
That she's a big girl now

Mandy is two
You ought to see how many things she can do
She knows her alphabet
And ties her own shoes
And no one showed her how

If you could see her majesty
With braids in her hair
Almost as though her Sunday beau
Came around and brought her an orchid to wear

Mummy is blue
Because her little girl is going on three
But Miss Amanda she's as proud as can be
'Cause she's a big girl now

If you could see her majesty
With braids in her hair
Almost as though her Sunday beau
Came around and brought her an orchid to wear

Mummy is blue
Because her little girl is going on three
But Miss Amanda she's as proud as can be
'Cause she's a big girl now

2401
Composer(s): John Mayall
Performer(s): John Mayall



There's a hero living at 2401 and all around
A family circus in the sun
Got his Mothers working
While you're having fun

Trying to change the system
Many things that must be done
Where did Moon go?
Better call at GTO

In the red room
Pam is planning where to go
Gail and Pauline
Who is prowling round your door?

A maniac, The Raven
Could he have his gun back?
No! 2401, got myself a place to stay
On the railroad, Kansas nearer every day

Miss Christine cooking
Looking very gay
How do you say a Thank You?
How do you ever tear yourself away?

Mandy

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

2nd Thought
Composer(s): Andy McCluskey
Performer(s): Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark



although the order in our lives
left some time ago
along the way
we are the ones who never cry
like we don't care
today
me at home and you out there
and on your way
it's gone so far and now it seems
it's only me
who cares
I know it helps the times you asked
though never gave
a little hope to set you free
thus you stray
although the order in our lives
left some time ago
we are the ones who never cry
or so we're told
it's gone so far and now it seems
it's only me
me at home and you out there
along the way
me at home and you out there
along the way
me at home and you out there
along the way

29 Ways
Composer(s): Willie Dixon
Performer(s): Willie Dixon;
and various other artists



I got 29 ways to make it to my baby's door
I got 29 ways to make it to my baby's door
And if she needs me bad 
I can find about two or three more 

I got one through the basement 
Two down the hall 
And when the going gets tough 
I got a hole in the wall 

Chorus:
I can come through the chimney like Santa Claus
Go through the window and that ain't all 
A lot of good ways I don't want you to know 
I even got a hole in the bedroom floor 

Chorus

I got a way through the closet behind her clothes
A way through the attic that no one knows 
A master key that fits every lock 
A hidden door behind the grandfather clock 

Chorus
