Mind Games Composer(s): John Lennon Originally performed by: John Lennon Covered by various other artists
We're playing those mind games together Pushing the barriers planting seeds Playing the mind guerrilla Chanting the Mantra peace on earth We all been playing those mind games forever some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil Doing the mind guerrilla Some call it magic the search for the grail
Love is the answer and you know that for sure Love is a flower you got to let it, you got to let it grow
So keep on playing those mind games together Faith in the future outta the now You just can't beat on those mind guerrillas Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind Yeah we're playing those mind games forever Projecting our images in space and in time
Yes is the answer and you know and you know that for sure Yes is surrender you got to let it, you got to let it go
So keep on playing those mind games together Doing the ritual dance in the sun Millions of mind guerrillas Putting their soul power to the Karmic wheel Keep on playing those mind games forever Raising the spirit of peace and love
(I want you to make love, not war I know you've heard it before)
Out In The Country Composer(s): Paul Williams; Roger Nichols Performer(s): Three Dog Night; and various other artists
Whenever I need to leave it all behind Or feel the need to get away-ay-ay I find a quiet place, far from the human race Out in the country
Before the breathin' air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the night-time Out where the rivers like to run I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
Whenever I feel them closing in on me Or need a bit of room to move When life becomes too fast, I find relief at last Out in the country
Before the breathin' air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the night-time Out where the rivers like to run I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
Before the breathin' air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the night-time Out where the rivers like to run I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
Before the breathin' air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the night-time Out where the rivers like to run I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'
Before the breathin' air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the night-time
Mind Demons Composer(s): Suzi Quatro; Lennie Tuckey Performer(s): Suzi Quatro
I couldn't sleep last night Too much emptiness It made me so uptight I needed your caress Whoo You were across the hall And I was too proud to call Instead I fantasized I guess that wasn't wise Whoo - Mind Demons Whoo - In my brain Whoo - Mind Demons Whoo - Drivin' me crazy I turned on the light Another sleepless night I grabbed a magazine You know the kind I mean Whoo - Mind Demons Whoo - In my brain Whoo - Mind Demons Whoo - Drivin' me crazy
Out In The Cold Again Composer(s): Rube Bloom; Ted Koehler Performer(s): Dean Martin; and various other artists
(Out in the cold) The song that you sang so sweetly You called it our love refrain It's gone and I'm left completely Out in the cold again
I dreamed that our love would linger But just memories remain As I gaze at that ringless finger Out in the cold again
True it hurts my pride to step aside for somebody new But deep down inside my whole world depended on you I wanted your arms around me To shelter me from the rain But now I'm back where you found me Out in the cold again
(True it hurts my pride to step aside for somebody new) (But deep down inside my whole world depended on you) I wanted your arms around me To shelter me from the rain But now I'm back where you found me Out in the cold again Out in the cold
Mind Blowing Decisions Composer(s): Johnnie Wilder Jr. Originally performed by: Heatwave
Mind...... blow.....ing Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions
So I talk to myself, I give plenty time To all these decisions lying in my mind Holding hands or put my arms around her waist Neither one of these two will I try in haste Taking my time to work the problem out Yet trying to convince her that there is no need for doubt
Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions
So I tell myself again to dig deep within And remember when we first met we were only friends Throw a kiss or try to taste her tender lips Will these be the factors that will make our lives a trip But just in case things don't settle well with her I'll say that I'm sorry and keep hoping for the best
Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions
Must decide how to go. Is she mine I want to know (Well if you think long you think wrong So don't think too long)
-sing over chorus- Must decide how to go Is she mine I want to know Must decide how to go Is she mine I want to know
Marriage or shacking, which way do we go One of us must let the other know By taking our time we will work our problems out 'Til death do we part or as friends we'll begin...
Mind blowing (...again) decisions causes head on collisions Mind blowing decisions causes head on collisions
Mind Baby Composer(s): John Palumbo Performer(s): Crack the Sky
Oh, Mama, baby's a queen in her costumes and cars Oh, Mama, baby's a sweetie at the fashion show bars Hey, baby, the lady's a woman and the woman's a child Oh, Mama, the child's a toy, and the toy has gone wild
And she's over, I mean she thinks she is And she's over, I mean she looks like she is And she's over, I mean she still hasn't found her mind, baby
Her mind baby
Oh, Mama, she lives in a house with no lock on the door Oh, Mama, there's no one upstairs, but there's a great bottom floor Hey, baby, you throw her a look and she'll comfort your day Oh, Mama, you throw her a book and she'll throw it away
And she's over, I mean she thinks she is And she's over, I mean she looks like she is And she's over, I mean she still hasn't found her mind, baby
Mind baby Mind baby Mind baby
And she's over, I mean she thinks she is And she's over, I mean she looks like she is And she's over, I mean she still hasn't found her mind, baby
Mina Ögon Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog; Björn Ulvaeus; Bosse Carlgren Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Mina ögon, blå i glädje Som fick se dig le av lycka, min vän Mina ögon, grå i vrede Som du kysste blå och mjuka igen Får inte längre liv av elden inom mig Som brann när jag var nära dig Mina ögon fylls av frusen eld som liknar tårar
Minns du mina ögon där du såg hur stark du var Och hur jag brann, hur elden brann? Mina ögon fylls av frusen eld som liknar tårar
Mina ögon, som jag frågar När jag undrar om jag drömt att du fanns Mina ögon, som jag plågar Varje gång jag ser din bild någonstans Får inte längre kraft av elden inom mig Som brann när du var här hos mig Mina ögon fylls av frusen eld som liknar tårar
Minns du mina ögon där du såg hur stark du var Och hur jag brann, hur elden brann? Mina ögon fylls av frusen eld som liknar tårar Mina ögon fylls av frusen eld som liknar tårar
Out And About Composer(s): Tommy Boyce; Bobby Hart Performer(s): Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart
Nothing going on around here That hasn't gone on all year Stayin' in day out and day in Wishin' I was outside playin'
Out and about, I got a little thing going for me Out and about, free from all the things that bore me Out and about, riding all around the city Out and about, all the girls they look so pretty
I'm fine, when I'm, when I'm out and about
Things I want, I can't afford 'em Nothing in this house but boredom Magazines are torn and tattered Running out of reading matter
I gotta run outside and see what's happening
Out and about, where the sun is always shining Out and about, look at all the fun I'm finding Out and about, bumping into friends and laughing Out and about, what a groovy time we're having
We'll have a good time
When I'm out and about, out and about When I'm out and about, out and about
Min Soldat Composer(s): Jokern Performer(s): Ulla Billqvist
Min fästman han var modelejon, dandy, charmör kan hända för min skull, jag är svag just därför men nu är den tiden länges'en förbi jag såg på hans fotografi
Hans skor är för stora och hans mössa för trång hans byxor för smala och hans rock är för lång men det gör det samma för han är min soldat någonstans i Sverige
Jag har sett på hans kort att han är oklippt och dann han rakar sej ej på flera veckor ibland Men det gör det samma för han är min soldat någonstans i Sverige
I givakt vi måste stå vi kvinnor små för våra gossar blå som ligga här och där, i skogar och på skär
Han sa: "Den är ganska knapp den lönen vi får så vi kan nog inte ha något bröllop i år" Men det gör det samma för han är min soldat någonstans i Sverige
I går, jag vid station min älskling mötte han fått permission Vi åkte hem i bil han klädde sej civil Se'n Cecil med dans, ett bord för två i alkov han sa inte mycke', nej, han nicka och sov Men det gör det samma, för han är min soldat Någonstans i Sverige
Oural Ouralou Composer(s): Jean Ferrat Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
C'est dans l'aube chère à Verlaine Que tu courais notre domaine Humant l'air des quatre saisons Odeurs de thym et de bruyère Sous tes pattes fraîches légères S'élevaient comme une oraison Berger des landes familières Tu vivais digne et solitaire Animal doué de raison J'écris ce jour anniversaire Où tu reposes sous la terre A deux pas de notre maison
Hourrah oural ouralou Oural ouralou
Hourrah oural ouralou Oural ouralou
On voit souvent des souveraines A la place des rois qui règnent Rien qu'en posant leurs yeux dessus Il faut se méfier du paraître De nous deux qui était le maître Nous ne l'avons jamais bien su Tu vécus la vie parisienne La nuit sur les quais de la Seine Les music-halls et les tournées Et cette vie qui fût la mienne Il me semble que tu l'entraînes A la semelle de tes souliers
Hourrah oural ouralou Oural ouralou
Hourrah oural ouralou Oural ouralou
Jour après jour il faut l'admettre Voir ceux qu'on aime disparaître C'est ce qui fait vieillir trop tôt Au paradis des chiens peut-être Ton long museau à la fenêtre Tu nous accueilleras bientôt Au triple galop caracole Je vois tes pattes qui s'envolent Chevauchant l'herbe et les nuées Le vent siffle dans ton pelage Vole vole mon loup sauvage Comme au temps des vertes années
Min Farbror Jonathan Composer(s): Agnetha Faltskog; D. Zimmerman Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Min farbror Jonathan Han är en riktig man Han tjusar flickorna Och gör nåt, oh la la Som ingen annan kan Min farbror Jonathan Här har ni tidens man Om ni får honom se Så ska ni bara le Mot denne gamle man
Han kommer ibland Med käppen i hand Att han är en snobb det ser man Han är sjuttiotvå Han har inget hår Och tänder det har han inga
När tjejerna ser Att han går och ler Då skakar de först på huvudet Men efter en stund De vänder sig om Oj oj, vilken gullig gubbe
Min farbror Jonathan Han är en riktig man Han tjusar flickorna Och gör nåt, oh la la Som ingen annan kan Min farbror Jonathan Här har ni tidens man Om ni får honom se Så ska ni bara le Mot denne gamle man
Jag minns än idag En gång när han sa Om jag skulle ta och fria Till bruden jag såg På stranden igår Jag tror hon heter Fia
Jag skrattade och sa Nej, skäms gamle karl Hon vill inte ha nån gubbe Då log han och sa Men mig vill hon ha För jag är en riktig snubbe
Min farbror Jonathan Han är en riktig man Han tjusar flickorna Och gör nåt, oh la la Som ingen annan kan Min farbror Jonathan Här har ni tidens man Om ni får honom se Så ska ni bara le Mot denne gamle man
Ouragan Composer(s): Michel Rivgauche; Claude Leveille Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Toi... Rien que toi... Oui, que toi... Encore toi... Toujours toi... Partout toi... Tout pour toi... Tout par toi... Tout de toi... Tout en toi... Tout à toi... Avec toi... Rien que toi... Oui, que toi... Encore toi... Toujours toi...
Un ouragan de toi Se déchaîne sur moi Et moi, pleurant de joie Baignée de soleil Je vois un arc-en-ciel... Ciel tout semé d'étoiles... Toile entre terre et ciel... Mais ton souffle se lève Balayant le temps Et, jettée sous le rêve Moi je crie d'amour Mon amour... Aaaah!...Les vagues de toi Qui déferlent sur moi Aaaah!...L'océan de joie Qui m'emporte avec toi...
Mimile (Un Gars De Ménilmontant) Composer(s): Jean Boyer; Georges Van Parys Performer(s): Maurice Chevalier
Une casquette sur l'il Marchant avec orgueil En bombant le thorax C'est le dénommé Mimile Bien plus bouillant qu'Achille Et bien plus beau qu'Ajax C'est pourquoi tout lui est dû Dans toutes les rues du vingtième arrondissement Mais sous son air de terreur Se cache un bon petit cur Plein d'jolis sentiments
C'est un gars d'Ménilmontant Un vrai p'tit Parigot, un gavroche Un titi, un marrant, Mimile Il est toujours content C'est fou c'qu'il est complaisant Avez-vous besoin d'lui? Appelez le simplement en faisant "Mimile" Mimile répond "Présent!" On peut dire que c'est lui la coqueluche De toutes les petites femmes de Ménilmuche Dans ses bras, une à une, elles trébuchent Il ne leur fait jamais Des vux d'fidélité, oui mais... Le p'tit gars d'Ménilmontant Est un coq si vaillant Que les poules disent en le quittant "Mimile... Il met toujours dans l'mille... Mimile est épatant!"
Il joue au mauvais garçon Il imite leurs façons Il trouve que ça fait chic Mais c'est pas un méchant loup Il traverse dans les clous Et il salue les flics Y n'fait pas "bosser" les dames Pour lui le macadam C'est un vilain bis'ness Il vote, il paie son loyer Faudrait pas l'supplier Pour qu'il aille à la mess'...
C'est un gars d'Ménilmontant Un vrai p'tit Parigot, un gavroche Un titi, un marrant, Mimile Il est toujours content C'est fou c'qu'il est complaisant Avez-vous besoin d'lui? Appelez le simplement en faisant "Mimile" Mimile répond "Présent!" Comme danseur on ne fait pas plus chouette Il vous danse la valse dans une assiette Et quand il arrive dans un musette Il faut qu'le mastroquet Distribue aux dames des tickets... Le p'tit gars d'Ménilmontant Est un coq si vaillant Que les poules disent en le quittant "Mimile... Il met toujours dans l'mille... Mimile est épatant!"
Si Mimile vous est sympa Surtout n'le cherchez pas Il a quitté l'quartier Son départ s'est fait sans bruit On avait besoin d'lui Pour un autre métier Alors rangeant sa gapett' Ses ch'mises en satinette Couleur de rhatloukoum Il rejoignit l'premier jour Mais en blaguant toujours "J'm'en vais au badaboum..."
C'est un gars d'Ménilmontant Un vrai p'tit Parigot, un gavroche Un titi, un marrant, Mimile Il est au front maintenant Il a l'moral et comment Faut-il un volontaire? Qui donc se présente immédiatement? Mimile, c'est l'as du régiment Il a déjà gagné la croix d'guerre Il attend la médaille militaire Il s'ra bientôt sous-off, il l'espère Il peut tout obtenir Gam'lin n'a qu'a bien se tenir... C'est un gars d'Ménilmontant Un brav' petit bonhomme Comme chez nous aujourd'hui y'en a tant Mimile... Y'en a comm' ça des mille... Chez tous nos combattants
Our World Composer(s): Herbie Flowers; Pickett Performer(s): Blue Mink
Suddenly I woke this morning The light was dawning on me Tumbling from my bed And scratching my head I looked up to see Bright new day here to stay
People all around Not making a sound But taking the air Trying not to choke Breathing the smoke They leave everywhere Bright new day
Chorus: The world is ours The place we all share together And all together there's such a lot to share Let's keep our world a fair place for people to live in And we can live in a world for which we care
Why does everybody try to rule everything That really matters in the world today Don't they know that this is our world And this is our world And this is our world Everbody's joking And the kids are busy smoking People really must be joking If they think it doesn't happen here Yes it happens in our world
Suddenly it seems the ocean has lost its motion for me Troubled water gently gliding, a black cloud sliding by me Wish I knew what to do Take a look ahead Don't bury your head Like an ostrich below Everybody stop blowing the top Up a wonderful world Everyone having fun
Chorus
Na na na na na na Na na na na na na It's our world This is our world

Our Winter Love Composer(s): Johnny Cowell; Bob Tubert Performer(s): The Lettermen; Bill Purcell
Love warm in wintertime warms This heart of mine with dancing fires Of sweet desires We've found our winter love
Eyes cold as fallen tears grow Bechilling fears of loneliness How could I guess We've found our winter love
Now armed, the world is warm, warm Through cold and storm, we've found a fire Of sweet desire We've found our winter love We've found our winter love We've found our winter love
Milord Composer(s): Marguerite Monnot; Georges Moustaki; G.C. Testoni Performer(s): Dalida and various other artists (Originally performed by: Édith Piaf)
Venite qui Milord accanto a me Milord Se hai freddo il cuor io ti riscalderò Ti streghero Milord t'incanterò Milord Tu non pensare a lei ma prendi i baci miei Io so chi sei Milord i tipi come te Si trovan prima o poi coi tipi come me
Ti ho visto un dì passar tu stavi stretto a lei Ma il volto ti arrossì sentendotti guardar Tu non vedesti in me che un 'ombra della via Ma mi piacesti tu negli occhi ti guardai
Ed ora senza lei ti ho visto ritornar Non devi pianger più se lei ti vuol lasciar
Venite qui Milord accanto a me Milord Se hai freddo il cuor io ti riscalderò Ti stregherò Milord t'incanterò Milord Tu non pensare a lei ma prendi i baci miei Io so chi sei Milord i tipi come te Si trovan prima o poi coi tipi come me
Non domandare a me perché ti voglio qui Ti posso consolar se dici solo un sì E non pensare no a chi ti fa soffrir Ti posso ben capir gentil con te sarò Se tu con me verrai la vita cambierà Perchè d'amore mai nessuno morirà
Venite qui Milord accanto a me Milord Se hai freddo il cuor io ti riscaldero Ti streghero Milord t'incantero Milord Tu non pensare a lei ma prendi i baci miei Io so chi sei Milord i tipi come te Si trovan prima o poi coi tipi come me
Accanto a me Milord se hai freddo il cuor Io ti riscaldero ti streghero Milord t'incanterò Milord Tu non pensare a lei ma prendi i baci miei Io so chi sei Milord i tipi come te Si trovan prima o poi coi tipi come me La, La, La, La, La, La La...
