    The Man I Used To Be
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Hammerstein
    Performer(s): Samuel Ramey



    The man I used to be, a happy man was he
    And aimless as a leaf in a gale
    Whatever has become of that light-hearted bum
    Who thought he had the world by the tail
    The man I used to be, his life was gay and free
    And aimless as a cloud in the sky
    He thought he knew the game, then along came a dame
    Who turned him into some other guy

    I’ve got ambition now, I’ve got a mission now
    I aim to reach the top of the tree
    That other fly-by-night who looked so high by night
    Has vanished like a sail on the sea
    And I’ll never find that easy-living,
    Easy-taking, easy-giving fellow that I used to call me
    You can never find the man you used to be

    You’ve changed bub, you’ve changed a lot
    And the gang you used to go with all concur
    You’ve changed bub, you’re not yourself
    If this is yourself, you’re not the man you were

    The man I used to be would go to sleep at three
    Or four a.m. or seven or nine
    And when his weary head wasn’t near any bed
    A table or chair would be fine
    A man without a goal, a sort of friendly soul
    He liked to play the role of a host
    To any thirsty pal or a casual gal
    Who’d stay to cook his coffee and toast

    He was a ne’er-do-well who wouldn’t dare do well
    He never saw the top of a tree
    But kinda sad I was to be the cad I was
    Dissolving like a sail on the sea
    And I’ll never find that fatalistic,
    Free-and-easy egotistic optimist who used to be me
    You can never find the man you used to be

    Chicago Composer(s): Graham Nash First release by: Graham Nash - 1971



    Well your brother's bound and gagged
    And they've chained him to a chair
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    Just to sing
    In a land that's known as freedom
    How can such a thing be fair
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    Show your face

    We can change the world
    Re-arrange the world
    It's dying - to get better

    Politicians sit yourself down
    There's nothing for you here
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    For a ride

    Don't ask Jack to help you
    Cause he'll turn the other ear
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    For the help that we can bring

    We can change the world
    Re-arrange the world
    It's dying - if you believe in justice
    It's dying - if you believe in freedom
    It's dying - let a man rule his own life
    It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them
    Throw 'em out the door

    Somehow people must be free
    I hope the day comes soon
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    Show your face

    From the bottom of the ocean
    To the mountains of the moon
    Won't you please come to Chicago
    No one else can take your place

    We can change the world
    Re-arrange the world
    It's dying - if you believe in justice
    It's dying - if you believe in freedom
    It's dying - let a man rule his own life
    It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them
    Throw 'em out the door

    Composer(s): Lamont Dozier;
    Brian Holland; Eddie Holland
    Performer(s): The Four Tops



    Now if you feel that you can't go on (can't go on)
    Because all of your hope is gone (all your hope is gone)
    And your life is filled with much confusion (much confusion)
    Until happiness is just an illusion (happiness is just an illusion)
    And your world around is crumbling down, darling
    reach out come on girl reach on out for me
    reach out reach out for me
    I'll be there with a love that will shelter you
    I'll be there with a love that will see you through
    When you feel lost and about to give up (to give up)
    Cause your life just ain't good enough (just ain't good enough)
    And you feel the world has grown cold (has grown cold)
    And your drifting out all on your own (drifting out on your own)
    And you need a hand to hold, darling
    reach out come on girl reach out for me
    reach out reach out for me
    I'll be there to love and comfort you
    And I'll be there to cherish and care for you
    I'll be there to always see you through
    I'll be there to love and comfort you
    I can tell the way you hang your head (hang your head)
    You're not in love now, now your afraid (you're afraid)
    And through the tears you look around (look around)
    But there's no piece of mind to be found (no piece of mind to be found)
    I know what you're thinking,
    You're alone now, no love of your own, but darling
    reach out come on girl reach out for me
    reach out reach out.......... just look over your shoulder
    I'll be there to give you all the love you need
    And I'll be there you can always depend on me
    I'll be there to always see you through
    I'll be there to love and comfort you

    The Man I Love
    ((Dutch Version: Man Van Mijn Hart (Greetje Kauffeld) - 1997))
    Composer(s): George Gershwin - Ira Gershwin
    First performance by: Fred & Adele Astaire - 1924
    Covered by multiple other artists



    When the mellow moon begins to beam
    Every night I dream a little dream
    And of course Prince Charming is the theme
    The he, for me
    Although I realize as well as you
    It is seldom that a dream comes true
    To me it's clear
    That he'll appear

    Some day he'll come along, the man I love
    And he'll be big and strong, the man I love
    And when he comes my way
    I'll do my best to make him stay

    He'll look at me and smile, I'll understand
    And in a little while, he'll take my hand
    And though it seems absurd
    I know we both won't say a word

    Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
    Maybe Monday, maybe not
    Still I'm sure to meet him one day
    Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

    He'll build a little home just meant for two
    From which I'll never roam, who would? would you?
    And so, all else above
    I'm waiting for the man I love

    First release by: The Bar Harbor Society Orchestra - 1922
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I got the surprise, the surprise of my life
    I had to stop and stare
    I saw a man dancing with his own wife
    And you'll never guess where...

    Chicago, Chicago -- that toddlin' town, that toddlin' town
    Chicago, Chicago -- I'll show you around -- I love it
    Betcha bottom dollar you'll lose your blues
    In Chicago, Chicago
    The town that Billy Sunday could not shut down

    On State Street, that great street
    I just want to stay, I just want to stay
    They do things they don't do on Broadway, say
    They have the time, the time of their life
    I saw a man who danced with his wife
    In Chicago ... Chicago ... Chicago, Chicago
    Free and easy town, brassy, breezy town
    Chicago ... Chicago
    Let me cool my heels right down at Marshall Field
    Come and walk with
    Along the lake, to the drake
    Hollar and hoot, all through the loop
    Shout out now to Mrs. O'Leary's cow
    No she-she, life is peachy
    Chicago ... we'll meet at the Pump Room Ambassador East
    To say the least
    On shishkabob and breast of squab we will feed and get free
    Don't tell me sin is rampid and right
    Think of that man who danced with his wife
    In Chicago ... Chicago ...
    I feel sympathy for that wonderful, windy town!

    and various other artists



    Reach for tomorrow
    today belongs to the past
    the golden hopes of you yesterdays
    can all be yours at last

    Reach for tomorrow
    and keep your head in the sky
    you may get hurt
    in a thousand ways
    but give it one more try

    Have no regret about
    forget about
    the chances you missed
    in days to come
    I know there's something
    better than this

    Reach for tomorrow
    and keep your dreams ever new
    no matter how many times it seems
    that dreams are not for you

    Reach for tomorrow
    And make them all come...true

    Man From Snowy River
    Composer(s): A.B. Paterson
    Performer(s): Slim Dusty



    There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around
    That the colt from old Regret had got away
    And had joined the wild bush horses -- he was worth a thousand pound
    So all the cracks had gathered to the fray
    All the tried and noted riders from the stations near and far
    Had mustered at the homestead overnight
    For the bushmen love hard riding where the wild bush horses are
    And the stock-horse snuffs the battle with delight

    There was Harrison, who made his pile when Pardon won the cup
    The old man with his hair as white as snow
    But few could ride beside him when his blood was fairly up
    He would go wherever horse and man could go
    And Clancy of the Overflow came down to lend a hand
    No better horseman ever held the reins
    For never horse could throw him while the saddle-girths would stand
    He learnt to ride while droving on the plains

    And one was there, a stripling on a small and weedy beast
    He was something like a racehorse undersized
    With a touch of Timor pony -- three parts thoroughbred at least
    And such as are by mountain horsemen prized
    He was hard and tough and wiry -- just the sort that won't say die
    There was courage in his quick impatient tread
    And he bore the badge of gameness in his bright and fiery eye
    And the proud and lofty carriage of his head

    But still so slight and weedy, one would doubt his power to stay
    And the old man said, `That horse will never do
    For a long and tiring gallop -- lad, you'd better stop away
    Those hills are far too rough for such as you'
    So he waited sad and wistful -- only Clancy stood his friend
    `I think we ought to let him come,' he said
    `I warrant he'll be with us when he's wanted at the end
    For both his horse and he are mountain bred

    `He hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko's side
    Where the hills are twice as steep and twice as rough
    Where a horse's hoofs strike firelight from the flint stones every stride
    The man that holds his own is good enough
    And the Snowy River riders on the mountains make their home
    Where the river runs those giant hills between
    I have seen full many horsemen since I first commenced to roam
    But nowhere yet such horsemen have I seen'

    So he went -- they found the horses by the big mimosa clump
    They raced away towards the mountain's brow
    And the old man gave his orders, `Boys, go at them from the jump
    No use to try for fancy riding now
    And, Clancy, you must wheel them, try and wheel them to the right
    Ride boldly, lad, and never fear the spills
    For never yet was rider that could keep the mob in sight
    If once they gain the shelter of those hills'

    So Clancy rode to wheel them -- he was racing on the wing
    Where the best and boldest riders take their place
    And he raced his stock-horse past them, and he made the ranges ring
    With the stockwhip, as he met them face to face
    Then they halted for a moment, while he swung the dreaded lash
    But they saw their well-loved mountain full in view
    And they charged beneath the stockwhip with a sharp and sudden dash
    And off into the mountain scrub they flew

    Then fast the horsemen followed, where the gorges deep and black
    Resounded to the thunder of their tread
    And the stockwhips woke the echoes, and they fiercely answered back
    From cliffs and crags that beetled overhead
    And upward, ever upward, the wild horses held their way
    Where mountain ash and kurrajong grew wide
    And the old man muttered fiercely, `We may bid the mob good day
    NO man can hold them down the other side'

    When they reached the mountain's summit, even Clancy took a pull
    It well might make the boldest hold their breath
    The wild hop scrub grew thickly, and the hidden ground was full
    Of wombat holes, and any slip was death
    But the man from Snowy River let the pony have his head
    And he swung his stockwhip round and gave a cheer
    And he raced him down the mountain like a torrent down its bed
    While the others stood and watched in very fear

    He sent the flint stones flying, but the pony kept his feet
    He cleared the fallen timber in his stride
    And the man from Snowy River never shifted in his seat
    It was grand to see that mountain horseman ride
    Through the stringy barks and saplings, on the rough and broken ground
    Down the hillside at a racing pace he went
    And he never drew the bridle till he landed safe and sound
    At the bottom of that terrible descent

    He was right among the horses as they climbed the further hill
    And the watchers on the mountain standing mute
    Saw him ply the stockwhip fiercely, he was right among them still
    As he raced across the clearing in pursuit
    Then they lost him for a moment, where two mountain gullies met
    In the ranges, but a final glimpse reveals
    On a dim and distant hillside the wild horses racing yet
    With the man from Snowy River at their heels

    And he ran them single-handed till their sides were white with foam
    He followed like a bloodhound on their track
    Till they halted cowed and beaten, then he turned their heads for home
    And alone and unassisted brought them back
    But his hardy mountain pony he could scarcely raise a trot
    He was blood from hip to shoulder from the spur
    But his pluck was still undaunted, and his courage fiery hot
    For never yet was mountain horse a cur

    And down by Kosciusko, where the pine-clad ridges raise
    Their torn and rugged battlements on high
    Where the air is clear as crystal, and the white stars fairly blaze
    At midnight in the cold and frosty sky
    And where around the Overflow the reedbeds sweep and sway
    To the breezes, and the rolling plains are wide
    The man from Snowy River is a household word to-day
    And the stockmen tell the story of his ride

    Chi ti aprira' le labbra
    E nel possederti ti sorprendera'
    Perche' ti rinnovi
    E con lui tu trovi
    Orizzonti nuovi di felicita'?

    Chi rubera' il mio posto
    Pur nel piu' nascosto
    Sogno che tu fai
    Quando, dominata
    Nuovamente amata
    Con una risata
    Mi distruggerai?

    Chi tendera' la mano
    In cui mi annullero'?
    Chi ti stara' vicino
    Quando non ci saro'?
    Chi della tua dolcezza
    Con una carezza approfittera'
    E con un addio coprira' l'oblio
    Quello che fu mio
    Quando me ne andro'?

    E' sempre viva tra di noi
    Un'assurda felicita'
    Nonostante lo scarto fra
    Le nostre eta'
    Ma fino a quando me ne andro'
    E un altro ti contemplera'
    Una domanda i miei pensieri
    Assillera'

    Chi senza che protesti
    Rifara' quei gesti
    Riservati a me
    Quando tu mi attendi
    Quando tu mi prendi
    Palpiti e ti tendi nell'offriti a me?

    Chi scoprira' le risa
    La follia improvvisa
    E la serieta'
    E berra' l'essenza
    Della tua presenza
    Che la mia partenza
    Gli concedera'?

    Chi lo potrebbe dire?
    Chi mai lo scoprira'?
    E io devo soffrire
    Per chi ti prendera'
    Con un nuovo "ti amo"
    E con quel "ti amo"
    Che ti stordira'
    Nel dormirti accanto
    Dopo che avrai pianto di felicita'
    Mi riseppellira'

    I reach for the stars when I reach for your love
    For so far above me you always will be
    Like a clown longs to be a king in a play
    I long for the things that are so far away

    I reach for the stars when I reach for your hand
    But stars tumble down from the clouds to the land
    When you come to my arms in that moment divine
    all the stars in the sky are mine... are mine

    I reach for the stars when I reach for your hand
    But stars tumble down from the clouds to the land
    When you come to my arms in that moment divine
    all the stars in the sky are mine... are mine

    First release by: Eddie Howell - 1976



    Hey little lady do you love me
    As much as you tell me you do
    Oh I'm not them man you think I am
    The game I've been playing is through

    Hey little girl do you trust me
    Oh I'm gonna tell you no lies
    I'm gonna come clean, don't make a scene
    I've been hiding behind a disguise

    Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole
    The man with a price on his head (lots of money)
    The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
    But the lining is laden with lead

    Oh I've been a fugitive too long
    Running away with my fame
    My enemies flee at the sight of me
    They shake at the sound of my name

    Cause I'm the man from Mahnattan, ole
    The man with a price on his head (go and get the deputy)
    The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
    But the lining is laden with lead

    Don't be afraid, it's only a dream (I'm only dreaming)
    An imaginary hero, a vision
    I've seen (ah ah ah ah ah) Cuckoo

    Oh I know my true destination
    The day will eventaully come
    I tell you my friend I know my end (will be)
    When I'm standing alone in the sight of a gun

    Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole
    The man with a price on his head (lots of money)
    The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin
    But the lining is laden with lead

    Chi Non Lavora Non Fa L'amore Composer(s): Adriano Celentano - Mike DelPrete Performer(s): Adriano Celentano



    "Chi non lavora non fa l'amore!"
    Questo mi ha detto ieri mia moglie!
    Questo mi ha detto ieri mia moglie!
    A casa stanco ieri ritornai
    mi son seduto...niente c'era in tavola
    arrabbiata lei mi grida che ho scioperato due giorni su tre...
    Coi soldi che le dò non ce la fa più
    ed ha deciso che, lei fa lo sciopero contro di me!
    "Chi non lavora non fa l'amore!"
    Questo mi ha detto ieri mia moglie!
    Allora andai a lavorare
    mentre eran tutti a scioperare!
    E un grosso pugno in faccia mi arrivò
    andai a piedi alla guardia medica!
    C'era lo sciopero anche dei tranvai...
    Arrivo lì, ma il dottore non c'è!
    E' in sciopero anche lui!
    Che gioco è!
    Ma?!
    Ma come finirà...c'è il caos nella città
    Non so più cosa far! Se non sciopero mi picchiano
    Se sciopero mia moglie dice
    "Chi non lavora non fa l'amore!"
    Dammi l'aumento signor padrone
    così vedrai che in casa tua
    e in ogni casa entra l'amore

    Razzle In My Pocket
    Composer(s): Ian Dury; Chas Jankel
    Performer(s): Ian Dury & The Blockheads



    In my yellow jersey, I went out on the nick
    South Street Romford, shopping arcade
    Got a Razzle magazine, I never paid
    Inside my jacket and away double quick
    Good sense told me, once was enough
    But I had a cocky eye on more of this stuff
    With the Razzle in my pocket, back to have another peek

    Instead of being sneeky I strolled inside
    I put my thieving hand on something rude
    I walked right out with a silhouette of nudes
    'Hold on sonny' said a voice at my side
    'I think you've taken one of my books'
    Passers by gave me dirty looks
    'Not me mister' I bravely lied

    We stopped by the window of a jeweller's shop
    'If it's money for your lunch, I'd have given you a loan
    Have you got any form, were you on your own?
    Round to the station and we'll tell the cops'
    'I'm ever so ashamed, it was wicked and rash
    Here's the book back, and here's the cash
    I never stole before, I promise I'll stop'

    'Crime doesn't pay, you've got honest eyes
    If we go to the law another thief is born
    And I'll get the book back, creased and torn
    So return what you've taken and apologise'
    I gave him back his nudie book
    I said I was sorry, I slung my hook
    With the Razzle in my pocket as the second prize

    The Man From Laramie
    Composer(s): Lester Lee - Ned Washington
    Performer(s): Jimmy Young
    and multiple other artists



    The man from Laramie
    He was a man with a peaceful turn of mind
    He was kind of sociable and friendly
    Friendly as any man could be
    But you never saw a man out-draw
    The man from Laramie

    The man from Laramie
    He was a man with a warm and gentle heart
    But when they'd start the arguing and fightin'
    Frightenin' and lightning fast was he
    There was no coyote who could outshoot
    The man from Laramie

    He had a flair for ladies
    The ladies loved his air of mystery

    The west will never see
    A man with so many notches on his gun
    Everyone admired the fearless stranger
    Danger was this man's speciality
    So they never bossed or double crossed
    The man from Laramie

    He had a flair for ladies
    Now the ladies loved his air of mystery

    The west will never see
    A man with so many notches on his gun
    Everyone admired the fearless stranger
    Danger was this man's speciality
    So they never bossed or double crossed
    The man from Laramie

    Chez Moi Composer(s): Jean Féline - Paul Misraki Performer(s): Lucienne Boyer and multiple other artists



    Tout en haut de la ville
    Depuis trois ans déjà je vis
    Il n'est pas grand mon domicile
    Mais de ma fenêtre on voit Paris
    Et le soir lorsque tout s'éclaire
    On n'a pas besoin de bougies
    Il fait comme ça bien assez clair
    Et ça fait des économies...

    Venez donc chez moi je vous invite
    Y a d'la joie chez moi c'est merveilleux
    À côté des étoiles j'habite à deux pas du ciel toujours bleu
    J'attendrai chez moi votre visite
    Là haut sous les toits dans mon logis
    Tous les jours je reçois venez, venez vite
    C'est gentil chez moi, venez-y...

    Ce serait préférable
    Si en hiver c'était chauffé
    Et vraiment bien plus agréable
    Si c'était plus frais en été...
    Pour entrer faut baisser la tête
    Il faut s'asseoir à l'intérieur
    Mais on peut s'y conter fleurette
    Et ça suffit à mon bonheur...

    Venez donc chez moi je vous invite
    Y a d'la joie chez moi c'est merveilleux
    Il ne faut surtout pas qu'on hésite
    L'escalier n'est pas dangereux
    Le tapis est beau jusqu'au deuxième
    Si on monte plus haut plus de tapis
    Mais allez tout droit montez au sixième
    C'est gentil chez moi, montez-y...

    Il faut que je ramène
    Un jour bientôt l'amour chez moi
    Car j'ai là-haut bien trop de peine
    À vivre tout seul sous mon toit
    Je lui dirai "viens voir la vue
    De ma fenêtre elle est bien mieux"
    Quand il (elle) aura bien vu la rue
    Je lui ferai fermer les yeux...

    C'est gentil chez moi je vous invite
    Vous serez pour moi le seul ami
    Nous n'aurons plus jamais de visite
    À la porte tous les ennuis
    Nous serons heureux dans mon sixième
    Il y a place pour deux dans mon logis
    On comptera les fois où nous dirons "je t'aime"
    Es-tu bien chez moi! Restons-y ...

    Performer(s): Chicago



    Bailiff:
    Mr. Flynn, his honor is here

    Billy:
    Thank you. Just a moment. You ready?

    Roxie:
    Oh Billy, I'm so scared!

    Billy:
    Roxie. You got nothing to worry about. It's all a circus, kid.
    A three ring circus. These trial - the whole world - all show
    business. But kid, you're working with a star, the biggest!

    Give 'em the old razzle dazzle
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    Give 'em act with lots of flash in it
    And the reaction will be passionate
    Give 'em the old hocus pocus
    Bread and feather 'em
    How can they see with sequins in their eyes?

    What if your hinges all are rusting?
    What if, in fact, you're just disgusting ?

    Razzle dazzle 'em
    And they'll never catch wise!
    Eh Eh Eh Eh
    Ah! Ah! Ah!
    Give 'em the old razzle dazzle

    Billy and Company:
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    Give 'em a show that's so splendiferous

    Billy:
    Row after row will grow vociferous

    Billy and Company:
    Give 'em the old flim flam flummox
    Fool and fracture 'em

    Billy:
    How can they hear the truth above the roar?

    Billy and Company:
    Throw 'em a fake and a finagle
    They'll never know you're just a bagel,

    Billy:
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    And they'll beg you for more!

    Billy and Company:
    Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
    Give 'em the old razzle dazzle
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    Back since the days of old Methuselah
    Everyone loves the big bambooz-a-ler

    Give 'em the old three ring circus
    Stun and stagger 'em
    When you're in trouble, go into your dance
    Though you are stiffer than a girder
    They let ya get away with a murder
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    And you've got a romance

    Give 'em the old
    Razzle dazzle

    Billy:
    Razzle dazzle 'em
    Give 'em an act that's unassailable
    They'll wait a year 'til your available!

    Billy and Company:
    Give 'em the old
    Double whammy

    Billy:
    Daze and dizzy 'em
    Show 'em the first rate sorcerer you are

    Billy and Company:
    Long as you keep 'em way off balance
    How can they spot you got no talents?

    Billy:
    Razzle dazzle 'em

    Company:
    Razzle dazzle 'em

    Billy:
    Razzle dazzle 'em

    Billy and Company:
    And they'll make you a star!

    The Man Comes Around
    Composer(s): Johnny Cash
    First release by: Johnny Cash - 2002
    Covered by multiple other artists



    There's a man going around taking names
    And he decides who to free and who to blame
    Everybody won't be treated all the same
    There'll be a golden ladder reaching down
    When the Man comes around

    The hairs on your arm will stand up
    At the terror in each sip and in each sup
    Will you partake of that last offered cup?
    Or disappear into the potter's ground
    When the Man comes around

    Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
    One hundred million angels singing
    Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
    Voices calling, voices crying
    Some are born and some are dying
    It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come

    And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
    The virgins are all trimming their wicks
    The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
    It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

    Till Armageddon no shalam, no shalom
    Then the father hen will call his chickens home
    The wise man will bow down before the thrown
    And at His feet they'll cast their golden crowns
    When the Man comes around

    Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
    Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
    Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
    Listen to the words long written down
    When the Man comes around

    Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
    One hundred million angels singing
    Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
    Voices calling and voices crying
    Some are born and some are dying
    It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come

    And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
    The virgins are all trimming their wicks
    The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
    It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

    In measured hundred weight and penny pound
    When the Man comes around

    Chez moi oh oh oh
    Chez moi
    Y avait le ciel bleu sur la mer
    Le pain blanc comme le sable
    Et le soleil rouge du désert
    Oh oh oh le jasmin
    Dans les branches
    Ami de mes jeunes désirs
    Mais je ne crois plus au retour
    Car chez moi n'est qu'un souvenir

    Y avait là l'odeur de la terre
    Le vent chaud de notre plage
    Ou tes lèvres avaient un goût amer

    Je voudrais m'en aller
    Loin des villes
    Chez moi je voudrais revenir
    Mais je ne crois plus au retour
    Car je le sais
    Qu'à tout jamais
    Chez moi
    N'est plus qu'un souvenir

    The Mama Doll Song
    Composer(s): Nat Simon - Charles Tobias
    Performer(s): Patti Page



    I once had a doll
    That was all dressed in white
    I called her my baby
    And I'd hold her tight

    Her eyes were so blue
    And her cheeks were so red
    But I loved her most of all
    Each time she said...

    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    One little word she knew
    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    To me it meant, I love you

    My dolly was waiting
    When I'd want to play
    And I always knew
    What she wanted each day

    I'd wash her and feed her
    And put her to bed
    But I'd never leave her
    Until she said...

    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    One little word she knew
    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    To me it meant, I love you

    Then came the time
    I remember the day
    I wrapped her in paper
    And put her away

    Now I've got a secret
    Sometimes when I'm blue
    I still get a thrill again
    Listening to...

    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    One little word she knew
    Mama, mama, mama, mama
    To me it meant, I love you

    Chez Max Coiffeur Pour Hommes
    Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
    Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg



    Chez Max coiffeur pour hommes
    Où un jour j'entrais comme
    Par hasard me faire raser la couenne
    Et rafraîchir les douilles
    Je tombe sur cette chienne
    Shampouineuse
    Qui aussitôt m'aveugle par sa beauté païenne
    Et ses mains savonneuses
    Elle se penche et voilà ses doudounes
    Comme deux rahat-loukoums
    À la rose qui rebondissent sur ma nuque boum boum
    Je pense à la fille du Calife
    De la mille et deuxième nuit
    Et sens la pointe d'un canif
    Me percer le cœur je luis dis
    "Petite je te sors ce soir ok"
    Elle a d'abord un petit rire comme un hoquet
    Puis sous le sirocco du séchoir
    Dans mes cheveux
    La petite garce laisse choir
    "Je veux"
