Come To The Supermarket In Old Peking
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand;
Loretta Devine; Gregory Jbara; Patti LuPone



If you want a fancy fan
Or a turkey born in Turkey-stan
Or a slave that's awf'lly African
Or a Teapot early Ming
Come to the supermarket in old Peking
If you want to buy a kite
Or a pup to keep you up at night
Or a dwarf who used to know Snow White
Or a frog who loves to sing
Come to the supermarket in old Peking
They have
Sunflow'r cakes, moonbeam cakes
Gizzard cakes, lizard cakes
Pickled eels, pickle snakes
Fit for any king
If you want a bust of jade
Or an egg that's more or less decayed
Or in case you care to meet a maid
For a nice but naughty fling
Come to the supermarket
If you come on an ostrich, you can park it
So come to the supermarket
And see Peking
If you want a gong to beat
Or a rickshaw with a sassy seat
Or a painting slightly indiscreet
That is simply riveting
Come to the supermarket and see Peking
Well, If you want some calico
Or a gentle water buffalo
Glow worm guaranteed to glow
Or a cloak inclined to cling,
Come to the supermarket in old Peking
They have bird's-nest soup, seaweed soup
Noodle soup, poodle soup
Talking crows with the croup
Almost anything
If you want to buy a saw
Or a fish delicious when it's raw
Or a pill to kill your moth'r-in-law
Or a bee without a sting
Come to the supermarket
If you come on a turtle, you can park it
So come to the supermarket
If you come on a goose, you can park it
So come to the supermarket
And see Peking!

Rock And Roll Band

New Duncan Imperials; Smokin'



Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
Everybody'd listen

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
Drove a Cadillac car
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight
Sign a record company contract
You know I've got great expectations
When I hear you on the car radio
You're goin' to be a sensation!"

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

The Toymaker's Dream
Composer(s): Ernie Golden
Performer(s): Vaughn DeLeath



A jolly little workman was making toys all day
So children could be happy when they were all at play
One night when all was quiet, his daily work was done
In the shadows deep he fell fast asleep as the toys woke one by one

Though it's just in dreams, still to him it seems that his toys have come to life
There's a bugler boy blowing notes of joy and a toy that blows a fife
Hear that big bass drum going "rum tum tum" to the sound of tramping feet
See the toyman smile as the rank and file come a-marching up the street

There's lions, camels, tigers, an elephant or two
Just hear that great big rooster sing "cock-a-doo-dle-doo"
And dear old Mother Hubbard who found her cupboard bare
And Santa Claus who's here because he has some toys to share
There's battleships and cruisers and big electric trains
The skyway up above him is filled with aeroplanes
Right in his little workshop he made them all it's true
Attention! Attention! Get ready for review

A jolly little workman was making toys all day
So children could be happy when they were all at play
One night when all was quiet, his daily work was done
In the shadows deep he fell fast asleep as the toys woke one by one

All the toys play on till the break of dawn, though they're made of wood and clay
Ev'ry one is there and they do their share to make whoopee and be gay
When the clock strikes five they can't be alive, so they scramble for themselves
And the toyman wakes and shivers and shakes as he sees them on the shelves

There's lions, camels, tigers, an elephant or two
Just hear that great big rooster sing "cock-a-doo-dle-doo"
And dear old Mother Hubbard who found her cupboard bare
And Santa Claus who's here because he has some toys to share
There's battleships and cruisers and big electric trains
The skyway up above him is filled with aeroplanes
Right in his little workshop he made them all himself
Attention! Attention! March back upon the shelf

Performer(s): Minnie Ripperton



Come to my garden let the stars fill your eyes
Come to my garden and walk with me
Come to my garden no more dreams filled with cries
Come to my garden please

I'll take your breath and give you mine
I'll take your hand and lead you where the truth lies
I'll take you with me now

You know you've lived here all your nights; all your days
You know you've lived here inside my mind
You know you'll stay here for this you've lived all your life
You know you'll stay right here

Rock & Roll (I Gave You The Best Years Of My Life)
Composer(s): Kevin Johnson
Performer(s): Mac Davis



I can still remember
When I bought my first guitar
Remember just how good the feeling
To put it proudly in my car
And my fam'ly listened fifty times
To my two song repertoire
I told my mom
Her only son was gonna be a star
Bought all the Beatles records
I sounded just like Paul
I bought all the old Chuck Berry's - 78's and all
I sat by my record player
Playing ev'ry note they played
I watched them all on TV
Making ev'ry move they made

Rock and roll, I gave you all
The best years of my life
All the dreamy sunny Sundays 
All the moonlit summer nights
I was so busy in the backroom
Writing love songs to you
While you were changing your direction
And you never even knew
That I was always just one step behind you

Sixty-six seemed like the year
I was really going somewhere
We were living in San Francisco
With flowers in our hair
Singing songs of kindness
So the world would understand
To the guys and me you were something more
Than just another band
 
And then sixty-nine in L.A.
Came around so soon
We were really making headway 
And writing lots of tunes
And we must have played
The wildest stuff that we had ever played
And the way the crowds cried out for us
We thought we had it made

Rock and roll, I gave you all
The best years of my life
All the crazy, lazy, young days 
All the magic moon at night
I was so busy on the road
Singing love songs to you
While you were changing your direction
And you never even knew
That I was always just one step behind you

Seventy-one and so alone 
When I met Susanne
I was trying to go it solo
With someone else's band
She came up to me later
And I took her by the hand
And I told her all my troubles
And she seemed to understand

And she followed me to London 
Through a hundred hotel rooms
Through a hundred record companies 
Who didn't like my tunes
She followed me when finally 
I sold my old guitar
She tried to help me
Understand I'd never be a star

Rock and roll, I gave you
All the best years of my life
All the dreamy, sunny Sundays
All the moonlit summer nights
And though I never knew
The magic of making it with you
That I thank the Lord for giving me
The little bit I knew
And I was always just one step behind you

Tootin' low
Tootin' high
He's a new tooter in
With the Tin pan parade
There they go

Jenny said, when she was just five years old
There was nothin' happening at all
Every time she puts on the radio
There was nothin' goin' down at all, not at all
Then, one fine mornin', she puts on a New York station
You know, she couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started shakin' to that fine, fine music
You know, her life was saved by rock 'n'roll

Despite all the imputations
You know, you could just go out
And dance to a rock'n'roll station
And it was all right, hey baby

The Town I Loved So Well
Composer(s): Phil Coulter - B. Martin
Performer(s): Phil Coulter



In my memory I will always see
The town that I have loved so well
Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall
And we laughed through the smoke and smell
Going home in the rain running up the dark lane
Past the jail and down beside the fountain
Those were happy days in so many many ways
In the town I loved so well

In the early morn the shirt factory horn
Called women from Creggan, the Moor and the Bog
While the men on the dole played a mothers role
Fed the children and then trained the dog
And when times got tough, there was just about enough
But they saw it through without complaining
For deep inside was a burning pride
In the town I loved so well

There was music there in the Derry air
Like a language that we could all understand
I remember the day when I earned my first pay
as I played in a small pickup band
There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth
I was sad to leave it all behind me
For I'd learned about life and I'd found a wife
In the town I loved so well

But when I returned how my eyes were burned
To see how a town could be brought to it's knees
By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze
Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall
And the damned barbed wire
gets higher and higher
With their tanks and guns
Oh my God, what have they done
To the town I loved so well

Come To Me
Composer(s): Bobby Caldwell; S. Kari
Performer(s): Bobby Caldwell

Holding you tight
Come to me
Come to me
All your cares will be history
Come to me
Come to me
I would never mistreat you
I would always, always be around
In this world you'll need someone
I will never let you down
Come to me
Let me love you honey
In my arms
Darling tonight
Come to me
Come to me
All your cares will be history
When you come to me

Robinson Crusoe
Composer(s): D. Zimmerman; G. Moroder; F. Jay
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Ich war noch ein Kind
Da gab es für mich nur einen Mann
Ich träumte von ihm
Und sah ihn als einen Helden an

Und das war Robinson Crusoe
Auf seiner Insel ganz allein
Robinson Crusoe
Ich dachte, "Herrlich, könnte ich nur bei ihm sein"

Mit siebzehn kam dann ein Freund
Und den fand ich wunderbar
Weil er so wie ich romantisch
Und voller Träume war

Wir spielten Robinson Crusoe
Abends im kleinen Park zu zwei'n
Robinson Crusoe
Und das war herrlich denn ich durfte bei ihm sein

Eines Abends hat er mich dann geküsst
Was doch gar nicht im Buch geschrieben ist
Doch dann begann erst die schönste Zeit
Denn wir lieben uns noch heut'

Dank unser'm Robinson Crusoe
Auf seiner Insel ganz allein
Robinson Crusoe
Sind wir zusammen und wir werden's immer sein
Robinson Crusoe
Sind wir zusammen und wir werden's immer sein

The Torture Never Stops
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa



Flies all green and buzzin'
in this dungeon of despair
Prisoners grumble and piss their clothes
and scratch their matted hair
A tiny light, from a window hole
a hundred yards away
is all they ever gets to know
about the regular light in the day

And it stinks so bad, the stones been chokin'
and weepin' greenish drops
In the room where the giant fire puffer works
and the torture never stops

The torture never stops

Slime and rot, rats and snot
and vomit on the floor
Fifty yoogly soldiers, man
holdin' spears by the iron door
Knives and spikes, and guns and the likes
of every tool of pain
And a sinister midget, with a bucket and a mop
where the blood goes down the drain

And it stinks so bad, the stones been chokin'
and weepin' greenish drops.
In the room where the giant fire puffer works
and the torture never stops

The torture never stops
The torture... the torture...
The torture never stops

Flies all green and buzzin'
in this dungeon of despair
An evil prince eats a steaming pig
in a chamber right near there
He eats the snouts and the trotters first
The loins and the groins is soon dispersed
His carvin' style is well rehearsed
He stands and shouts

All men be cursed!
All men be cursed!
All men be cursed!
All men be cursed!

And disagree?
Well, no one durst

He's the best, of course, of all the worst
Some wrong been done, he done it first

And it stinks so bad, his bones been chokin'
and weepin' greenish drops
In the night of the iron sausage
where the torture never stops

The torture never stops
The torture... the torture...
The torture never stops

Flies all green and buzzin'
in this dungeon of despair
Who are all those people
that he's locked away down there?
Are they crazy?
Are they sainted?
Are they zeroes
someone painted?

And it's never been explained
since it first it was created
But a dungeon, like a sin
requires not but lockin' in
of everything that's ever been
Look at her
Look at him

That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in
That's what's the deal we're dealin' in 

Come The Day
Composer(s): Bruce Woodley
Performer(s): The Seekers; Judith Durham



I know that one day soon a song shall rise
You'll hear it with the sleep still in your eyes
You'll waken to a brand new day
Can you hear bells ringin'
Voices singin'
Far away?

A time when every man will be as one
A time to reach right out and touch the sun
Come the day
Freedom's still a thought within your mind
The fleeting thing that some may never find
It may be still a million miles away
Can you hear bells ringin'
Voices singin'
Far away?

A time to live without doubt or fear
Welcome to the happy world that will be here
Come the day
The trumpets of war will cease to blow
The sound I hope that we may never know
We're waiting for the day
Can you hear bells ringin'
Voices singin'
Far away?

Lift up your voices and sing this song
Let the whole world hear it loud and strong
Can you hear bells ringin'
Voices singin'
Far away?
