Nauravat Silmät Muistetaan First performance by: Boulevard - 1988
Päivien pyörteessä, toisien joukossa helppo on kulkea yksin Ihmistenkuoria, tyhjiä kohdata vaan Outoja ilmeitä, kylmiä katseita, muutamat ilmettä aivan Kulkevat, katsovat, tuskinpa kuulevatkaan
Astutaan ulos kuoresta uuteen maisemaan Avataan korvat kuulemaan, rohkeesti vaan rentoudutaan Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
Ihmistenkuorista, vanhoista nuorista, kaikki on toisinaan yksin Kaikkien huolia ystävyys helpottaa voi Hauskoja ilmeitäa, heiliä katseita, uusia tuulia aivan Katsovat, kuulevat, naurussaan riemu jo soi
Astutaan ulos kuoresta uuteen maisemaan Avataan korvat kuulemaan, rohkeesti vaan rentoudutaan Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
Somebody Stole My Guitar Composer(s): Ian Gillan - Roger Glover - Jon Lord - Steve Morse - Ian Paice Performer(s): Deep Purple
Remind me to tell you 'bout the old silver miner name of hard rock Pete had his house built on a slope They say one of his legs lived in Calico There's a rumour going round that the other lived in hope So I walked in the room and I stopped I turned around and looked over my shoulder And a voice close beside me said You'd better watch your head the party's over
It wasn't long before the waitress came over and said Can I freshen up your drink and have you heard of these boys and if you feel included to buy some cowboy boots Well it's not that bad we can talk above the noise So I sucked on my beer Shut my eyes and tried to listen to the words I know I missed the meaning but the message was something I'd already heard
Johnny Ringo's voice is getting deeper and now he's going to put another lock on the door The night is getting later My head is getting lighter The mood is getting darker Tequila's being poured So I smile at the old gunslinger in his frame on the wall as he pushed back his hat And it's all coming back I'd cut a long story short but it's much too late for that
Somebody stole my guitar They took it from the back seat of my car
I was sleeping in Memphis in my hotel room and somebody stole my guitar
Stad I Ljus Composer(s): Py Bäckman First performance by: Tommy Körberg - 1988
Min resa var mot solen, långt bortom alla slutna rum Där allting är oändligt, och alla gränser har förevigt suddats ut Jag ville se miraklet, och höra ord som föder liv Bli buren av en styrka, som bara växer när jag anat mitt motiv
Stad i ljus, i ett land utan namn Ge mig liv, där allting föds på nytt
Och så när allt förändrats, när tiden inte längre finns Så ser jag oss untilsammans, och då är resan slut Det enda som vi minns
Stad i ljus, i ett land utan namn Ge mig liv, där allting föds på nytt Stad i ljus, i ett land utan namn Ge, ge mig liv, där allting föds på nytt
Under Pressure Composer(s): David Bowie; John Deacon; Brian May; Freddie Mercury; Roger Taylor Performer(s): Queen; David Bowie; and various other artists
Bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah bah bah Pressure pressing down on me Under pressure That burns a building down Splits a family in two Puts people on streets
Bah bah bah bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah bah bah
That's o-kay! It's the terror of knowing What this world is about Watching some good friends Screaming let me out Pray tomorrow takes me higher Pressure on people
Do do do bah bah bah bah O-kay Chippin around Kick my brains around the floor These are the days It never rains it pours People on streets People on streets
It's the terror of knowing What this world is about Watching some good friends Screaming let me out Pray tomorrow takes me higher People people on streets Turned away from it all Like a blind man Sat on fence but it don't work Keep coming up with love But it's so slashed and torn Why why why? Love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking Can't we give ourselves one more chance? Why can't we give love one more chance? Why can't we give love give love give love? Give love give love give love give love give love Cause love's such an old fashioned word And love dares you to care For people on the edge of the night And love dares you to change our way Of caring about ourselves This is our last dance This is our last dance This is ourselves under pressure Under pressure pressure
Somebody Stole My Gal Composer(s): Leo Wood Performer(s): Florence Millett and multiple other artists
Gee, but I'm lonesome, lonesome and blue I've found out something I never knew I know now what it means to be sad For I've lost the best gal I ever had She only left yesterday Somebody stole her away
Somebody stole my gal Somebody stole my pal Somebody came and took her away She didn't even say she was leavin' The kisses I love so He's getting now I know And Gee! I know that she Would come to me if she could see Her broken hearted lonesome pal Somebody stole my gal
Angels they say are only above I know that's wrong because my old love Sure is an angel, take it from me And she's all the angel I want to see Maybe she'll come back some day All I can do now is pray
Somebody stole my gal Somebody stole my pal Somebody came and took her away She didn't even say she was leavin' The kisses I love so He's getting now I know And Gee! I know that she Would come to me if she could see Her broken hearted lonesome pal Somebody stole my gal
And Gee! I know that she Would come to me if she could see Her broken hearted lonesome pal Somebody stole my Somebody stole my Somebody stole my gal!
Under The Bamboo Tree From "Sally In Our Alley"; "Nancy Brown";
"Meet Me In St. Louis" Composer(s): John Rosamond Johnson; Bob Cole Performer(s): Judy Garland; Margaret O'Brien; and various other artists
Down in the jungles lived a maid Of royal blood though dusky shade A marked impression once she made Upon a Zulu from Matabooloo And ev'ry morning he would be Down underneath the bamboo tree Awaiting there his love to see And then to her he'd sing
If you lak-a-me lak I lak-a-you And we lak-a-both the same I lak-a-say This very day I lak-a change your name 'Cause I love-a-you and love-a you true And if you-a love-a me One live as two, two live as one Under the bamboo tree
And in this simple jungle way He wooed the maiden ev'ry day By singing what he had to say One day he seized her And gently squeezed her And then beneath the bamboo green He begged her to become his queen The dusky maiden blushed unseen And joined him in his song
If you lak-a-me lak I lak-a-you And we lak-a-both the same I lak-a-say This very day I lak-a change your name 'Cause I love-a-you and love-a you true And if you-a love-a me One live as two, two live as one Under the bamboo tree
This little story strange but true Is often told in Mataboo Of how this Zulu tried to woo His jungle lady In tropics shady Although the scene was miles away Right here at home I dare to say You'll hear some Zulu ev'ry day Gush out this soft refrain
If you lak-a-me lak I lak-a-you And we lak-a-both the same I lak-a-say This very day I lak-a change your name 'Cause I love-a-you and love-a you true And if you-a love-a me One live as two, two live as one Under the bamboo tree
Under The Boardwalk Spanish Title: Fue En Un Cafe Composer(s): Arthur Resnick; Kenny Young Performer(s): The Drifters; and various other artists
Oh, when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire-proof Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be
(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun (Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun (Under the boardwalk) people walking above (Under the boardwalk) we'll be making love Under the board-walk (board-walk!)
From the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and French fries they sell Under the boardwalk, down by the sea On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be
(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun (Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun (Under the boardwalk) people walking above (Under the boardwalk) we'll be making love Under the board-walk (board-walk!)

Somebody Nobody Loves Composer(s): Seymour Miller Performer(s): Claud Thornhill and multiple other artists
I'm somebody nobody loves Oh me, oh my, my, my I'm somebody nobody loves I wonder why, why, why
Although I know it's most alarmin' I've prayed on bended knee For that certain gay prince charmin' Who was meant for me
I've got to find me a somebody soon Or else I'll die, die, die I'd take the man in the moon If he'd give me a try I'm just a lonesome Cinderella That romance passes by I'm somebody nobody loves, oh me oh my
Under The Falling Sky Composer(s): Jackson Browne Performer(s): Jackson Browne; Bob Meighan; Bonnie Raitt
Warm and lovely mystery, fire smiling through Before this moment fades away I want to know you I've got lightening in my pocket, thunder in my shoe Have no fear I've got something here I want to show you
Low, under the falling sky Easily we will lie While I bring it to you
It's a low road, a high wire going from me to you And in your eyes the distance left is closing I've got a feeling in my oceans Blood underneath my skin That into your bright fields this prison is opening
Low, under the falling sky Easily we will lie While I bring it to you
Our shadows wake each day though they don't know why They hope and try -- live and die So leave them in their frozen world Come and be my lover If only for one stolen moment We will live forever
Warm and lovely mystery, can you hear the choir? Voices can no longer hold my desire Abandon your sad history and meet me in the fire Our angels wait to take us higher and higher Higher and higher
Low, under the falling sky Easily we will lie While I bring it to you
Moitié-Moitié First performance by: Carol Rich - 1987
Le monde est une balançoire interdite aux enfants Plus tu fais monter d'un côté et plus l'autre descend En haut c'est la vie an bleu En bas c'est les larmes aux yeux Ni beaucoup ni trop peu Faudrait le juste milieu
Le monde est comme un sablier implacable et stupide Plus tu le remplis d'un côté et plus l'autre se vide En bas c'est plein à craquer En haut plus rien à donner Tant de choses à changer Faudra faire moitié moitié
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Bonheur qu'on partage Met le malheur en cage
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Tout le bien que l'on donne C'est le mal qu'on emprisonne
Mais quelque part un avion fou s'écrase en plein désert Et c'est le livre d'une vie qui redevient poussière L'ange du hasard a frappé Le génie s'est envolé Son message est resté On va faire moitié moitié
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Bonheur qu'on partage Met le malheur en cage
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Tout le bien que l'on donne C'est le mal qu'on emprisonne
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Bonheur qu'on partage Met le malheur en cage
L'amour c'est moitié moitié Toujours faire moitié moitié Tout le bien que l'on donne C'est le mal qu'on emprisonne
Tout le bien que l'on donne C'est le mal qu'on emprisonne
Under The Influence Of Love Composer(s): Barry White; Paul Leo Politi Performer(s): Barry White & Love Unlimited; Kylie Minogue; Felice Taylor
Walking on a cloud Feeling high It happens every time Whenever I'm with my guy
Tripping on love And it feels so good I can't help myself And I wouldn't think I could
Plus he's got that certain drive That I'm a victim to Love's really got a hold on me And there's nothing that I'd rather do
Oh, I'm right under the influence of love And, I know there ain't no doubt about it I'm under the influence of love And I know I just can't live without it
Need another dose Can't get enough I've just got to have All of my baby's love
And, when I'm alone Feeling sad and blue He gives me a shot of love And I'm as good as new
Helpless as I am Ask me, I don't care His tenderness is what I miss Whenever he's not here
Oh, I'm under the influence of love And, I know there ain't no doubt about it I'm under the influence of love And I know I just can't live without it
There just ain't no one else Who can bring out the love in me So many guys have tried They've tried to catch my eye But he's the only one I see
Oh, I'm under the influence of love And, I know there ain't no doubt about it I'm under the influence of love And I know I just can't live without it
(Fades to End)
Oh, I'm under the influence of love And, I know there ain't no doubt about it

Under The Mellow Arabian Moon Composer(s): Caspar Nathan; J. Walter Leopold Performer(s): The New Leviathan Oriental Foxtrot Orch.
My heart's in Arabia tonight Where stars shine bright on desert sand Where the moon sends blessings with its light From far above, oh, land, of love
When the oriole high in the trees Goes to its nest in search of rest Then my fancy journey o'er the seas Thro' desert sand to Arab land
Under the mellow Arabian moon With an Arabian maid in the desert shade Humming a sweet Arabian tune Turkish melodies floating on the breeze Holding someone by the hand In that far off desert land Let me tell you that's the way to spoon Just get an Arab sweetheart Under the the mellow Arabian moon Tell her pretty things, do your wanderings Where cold December seems like June You will be content in the Orient You'll find lots of pleasure there, love and music in the air Under the mellow Arabian moon
Somebody Loves Me Composer(s): Buddy DaSilva - George Gershwin - Ballard MacDonald First performance by: Winnie Lightner - 1924 Covered by multiple other artists
Somebody loves me, I wonder who I wonder who he can be Somebody loves me, I wish I knew Who can he be worries me
For every boy who passes me, I shout Hey, maybe You were meant to be my loving baby, baby, oh Somebody loves me, I wonder who Maybe its you
For every boy who passes me, I shout Hey, maybe You were meant to be my loving baby, baby
Somebody loves me, I wonder who Maybe, its Baby, its Maybe, baby, that somebody is you
Under The Rainbow Composer(s): B. Bergman; Claude Moine; P. Papadianmandis Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
La maison vide, l'frigo à l'abandon Faut dire qu'elle enterre sa vie de glaçon J'aurais plus à m'demander c'qu'il lui faut Il l'emmène où il fait moins chaud J'amenais son plateau, le journal, chaque soir J'avais droit à deux minutes comme au parloir Au pas de sa porte j'entendais juste son "bonsoir"
Un mot Me projetait "under the rainbow"
Under the rainbow Dessous, dans le noir Fidèle serviteur L'ombre de la star Son homme de couleur Blanc de peau Noir de cur Under the rainbow
Ils ont décollé une nuit sans raison Sans même couper la climatisation J'ai les clés, les papiers de la maison A vendre à la fin d'la saison Pour prouver mon dévouement au labeur M'a signe un certificat de travailleur... De l'argent dans une enveloppe... son odeur C'est trop C'est too much "under the rainbow"
Under the rainbow Dessous dans le noir Fidèle serviteur L'ombre de la star Son homme de couleur Blanc de peau Noir de cur Under the rainbow

Underbart Är Kort Composer(s): Povel Ramel Performer(s): Povel Ramel; Björn Skifs; Monica Zetterlund
Bara en enda ros på ett evigt klänge så är livet trist varar länge men underbart är kort, alldeles för kort
Följer du ödets stig genom dunkla gränder når dig solen en glimt i sänder ty underbart är kort, alldeles för kort
På var sommaräng du finner bara en lyckoklöver någonstans och likaså en enda gång du möter just den vän du behöver så tag din chans men fort, innan den flyr bort underbart är kort alldeles för kort
