Tant De Temps Composer(s): Philippe Soupault Performer(s): Michael Mantler
Le temps qui passe Le temps qui ne passe pas Le temps qu'on tue Le temps de compter jusqu'a dix Le temps qu'on n'a pas Le temps qu'il fait Le temps de s'ennuyer Le temps de rêver Le temps de l'agonie Le temps qu'on perd Le temps d'aimer Le temps des cerises Le mauvais temps Et le bon et le beau Et le froid et le temps chaud Le temps de se retourner Le temps des adieux Le temps qu'il est bien temps Le temps qui n'est même pas Le temps de cligner de l'oeil Le temps relatif Le temps de boire un coup Le temps d'attendre Le temps du bon bout Le temps de mourir Le temps qui ne se mesure pas Le temps de crier gare Le temps mort Et puis l'éternité
Muchas Veces Me Pregunto Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro Performer(s): Raphael
Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena Trabajar toda una vida por un pedazo de tierra Por un pedazo de tierra que te dan aunque no quieras Para que tu cuerpo no estorbe, para que tus huesos no muelan Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena Amasar tanto en la vida si estamos de paso en ella Si no será más feliz el pobre con su miseria Que Dios le guarda una aguja para que pase por ella Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena Intentar darle a la vida lo que el hombre justo sueña Si todo sucede igual pero con distintas fechas Y el hombre sigue ladrando y sigue las mismas guerras Muchas veces me pregunto que si merecerá la pena
God Give Me Strength Composer(s): Elvis Costello; Burt Bacharach Performer(s): Elvis Costello; and various other artists
Now I have nothing, so God give me strength 'Cause I'm weak in her wake And if I'm strong I might still break And I don't have anything to share That I won't throw away into the air That song is sung out This bell is rung out She was the light that I'd bless She took my last chance at happiness So God give me strength, God give me strength I can't hold onto her, God give me strength When the phone doesn't ring And I'm lost in imagining Everything that kind of love is worth As I tumble back down to the earth That song is sung out This bell is rung out She was the light that I'd bless She took my last chance at happiness So God give me strength God if she'd grant me her indulgence and decline I might as well wipe her from my memory Fracture the spell as she becomes my enemy Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on his shirt See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt I want him I want him to hurt
Since I lost the power to pretend That there could ever be a happy ending That song is sung out This bell is rung out She was the light that I'd bless She took my last chance at happiness So God give me strength, God give me strength
Tant De Monnaie Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Pierre Roche Performer(s): Charles Aznavour and multiple other artists
Je suis releveur d'appareils automatiques À toutes les heures j'ai des pièces métalliques Je les entends qui sonnent, écoutez-les sonner Quand elles s'entre choquent c'est moi qui suis choqué Je dois vous avouer ce que j'ai Tant de monnaie que cela m'exaspère Tant de menu monnaie avouez que c'est une mauvaise affaire Tant de monnaie m'alourdit m'aigrit le caractère Voyez Tant de monnaie dit le commerçant qu'a le sourire Tant de menu monnaie, vous avez cassé votre tirelire Tant de monnaie et je ne sais pas quoi lui dire Avouez Chez moi J'en ai rempli trente six bouteilles Parfois Ça bourdonne dans mes oreilles Je crie: assez! J'en suis obsédé Tant de monnaie a déréglé ma vie tranquille Tant de menu monnaie que j'entends teinter m'horripie Tant de menu monnaie m'enverra un jour à l'asile Dans un asile d'aliénés
J'ai changé de métier car je me faisais trop de bile Et j'ai accepté celui de livreur à domicile On me donne des pourboires ça fait plaisir je l'avoue Mais quand vient le soir je crois devenir fou Car tout comme avant J'ai tant
Tant de monnaie que cela m'exaspère Tant de menu monnaie avouez que c'est une mauvaise affaire Tant de monnaie m'alourdit m'aigrit le caractère Voyez Tant de monnaie dit le commerçant qu'a le sourire Tant de menu monnaie, vous avez cassé votre tirelire Tant de monnaie et je ne sais pas quoi lui dire Avouez Oh! non Ce n'est pas moi qui ai de la chance Ce sont Ceux qui ont de la banque de France De beaux billets Tandis que moi Tant de monnaie que les gens m'en font le reproche Tant de menu monnaie me dit-on abîme les poches Tant de monnaie Fait que mon complet paraît moche Mon complet paraît tout usé Et ça me rend fou Toutes ces pièces de dix sous Ces petites pièces de vingt sous Venues de n'importe ou Et je vous le dis entre nous Toutes mes poches ont des trous De minuscules trous Et même d'immenses trous
Tant de monnaie que les gens m'en font le reproche Tant de menu monnaie me dit-on abîme les poches Tant de monnaie Fait que mon complet paraît moche Mon complet paraît tout usé Tout usé

Siempre vuelve a amanecer y al ayer sigue un nuevo día de luz como al vendaval y a la tempestad le sigue la quietud Siempre vuelve a amanecer y después de unas lágrimas de amor detrás de un adiós, tras la soledad de nuevo brilla el sol Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, que la vida no se acaba y haz que brote la sonrisa, nuevamente de tu cara Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes que la vida no se acaba, deja de llorar Siempre vuelve a amanecer siempre hay algo nuevo que alcanzar y en tu corazón, duerme un nuevo amor dispuesto a despertar Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, y que estalle tu alegría con la fuerza de la vida, como nace un nuevo día Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes que la vida no se acaba, deja de llorar Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, que la vida no se acaba y haz que brote la sonrisa, nuevamente de tu cara Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes que la vida no se acaba, sólo por amor

Tant d'amour du printemps Meurt en hiver Que j'ai peur de moi Que j'ai peur de tout Tant d'amour du printemps Meurt en hiver Que j'ai peur de moi et de nous

God Blessed America For Me Composer(s): Woody Guthrie
This land is your land, this land is my land From the Californias to the Staten Island From the Redwood Forest, to the Gulf stream waters God blessed America for me
As I went walking that ribbon of highway And saw above me that endless skyway And saw below me the golden valley, I said God blessed America for me
I roamed and rambled and followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me, a voice was sounding God blessed America for me
Was a high wall there that tried to stop me A sign was painted said: Private Property But on the back side it didn't say nothing God blessed America for me
When the sun come shining, then I was strolling In wheat fields waving and dust clouds rolling The voice was chanting as the fog was lifting God blessed America for me
One bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple By the Relief Office I saw my people As they stood hungry, I stood there wondering if God blessed America for me
God Bless The Child Composer(s): Arthur Herzog Jr.; Billie Holiday Performer(s): Billie Holiday; and various other artists
Them that's got shall have Them that's not shall lose So the Bible said and it still is news Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own
Yes, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends Crowding round the door When you're gone, spending ends They don't come no more Rich relations give Crust of bread and such You can help yourself But don't take too much Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own (Repeat)
Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own He just worry 'bout nothin' Cause he's got his own Yes he's got his own

I got a girl with a little rubber head Rinse her out every night just before I go to bed She never talk back like a lady might do An' she looks like she loves it every time I get through
And her name is P-i-n-k-y P-i-n, no lie K-y, me-oh-my She's $69.95 Give her a try
P-i-n-k-y P-i-n, I cry K-y don't be shy $69.95, boy Give her a try
Her eyes is all shut in an ecstasy face You can cram it down her throat, people, any old place Throw the little switch on her battery pack You can poot it, you can shoot it till your wife gets back
