La petite presqu'île Où jadis, bien tranquille Moi je suis né natif Soit dit sans couillonnade Avait le nom d'un ad- jectif démonstratif
Moi, personnellement Que je meur' si je mens Ça m'était bien égal J'étais pas chatouillé J'étais pas humilié Dans mon honneur local
Mais voyant d' l'infamie Dans cette homonymie Des bougres s'en sont plaints Tellement que bientôt On a changé l'ortho- graph' du nom du pat'lin
Et j'eus ma première tristesse d'Olympio Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut Attendez un peu Messieurs les édiles Que l'on soit passé Pour débaptiser Nos petites villes
La chère vieille rue Où mon père avait cru On ne peut plus propice D'aller construire sa Petite maison s'a- ppelait rue de l'Hospice
Se mettre en quête d'un Nom d' rue plus opportun Ne se concevait pas On n' pouvait trouver mieux Vu qu'un asile de vieux Florissait dans le bas
Les anciens combattants Tous comme un seul, sortant De leurs vieux trous d'obus Firent tant qu'à la fin La rue d' l'Hospic' devint La rue Henri Barbusse
Et j'eus ma deuxième tristesse d'Olympio Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut Attendez un peu Héros incongrus Que l'on soit passé Pour débaptiser Nos petites rues
Moi, la première à qui Mon cur fut tout acquis S'app'lait Jeanne Martin Patronyme qui fait Pas tellement d'effet Dans le bottin mondain
Mais moi j'aimais comme un Fou ce nom si commun N'en déplaise aux minus D'ailleurs, de parti pris Celle que je chéris S'appell' toujours Vénus
Hélas un béotien A la place du sien Lui proposa son blase Fameux dans l'épicerie Et cette renchérie Refusa pas, hélas!
Et j'eus ma troisième tristesse d'Olympio Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut Attendez un peu Cinq minutes, non? Gentes fiancées Que l'on soit passé Pour changer de nom
Stop Leading Me On Composer(s): Parker - Wright Performer(s): The Precisions
You're leading me on Oh, why must this be You're leading me on Don't play with my heart this way If you don't love me, then tell me so And stop leading me on, and let me go, oh-oh-ooh
All my dreams are not the same You're leading me on It fills my heart with pain If you don't love me, then tell me so And this leading me on will be no more
I thought my love meant something to you (doo-be-doo-be-doo) And that our love was pure and true (aah-aah-aah-aah-aah) I made a foolish mistake And I was falling so deeply over you
So, look in my eyes and tell me (I love you so) This is something I must know (I must know) If you don't love me anymore Stop leading me on and let me go, woh-oh-oh
Límites Composer(s): Pablo Guerrero - Pedro Navarrete Performer(s): Luz Casal
En la ciudad el pulso de la soledad Detrás de tí la noche larga de abril Puedes tocar cometas en la oscuridad Alrededor siempre es presente en el reloj Amanecer tu luz al nacer Allá en el sur el cielo añade laminas de azul
Y ésta claridad te hace pensar que no tiene límites tu cuerpo ni orillas el mar Todo está aquí con ritmo y Música feliz Aquí la unión de lo creado con la creación Sombras se van sentidos a la libertad Fuego y metal aire que gira sobre el mar Amanecer tu luz al nacer Allá en le sur el cielo añade láminas de luz
Y esta claridad te hace pensar que no tiene límites tu cuerpo ni orillas el mar
Jeanne Composer(s): Georges Brassens Performer(s): Georges Brassens; Renaud
Chez Jeanne, la Jeanne Son auberge est ouverte aux gens sans feu ni lieu On pourrait l'appeler l'auberge de Bon Dieu S'il n'en existait déjà une La dernière où l'on peut entrer Sans frapper, sans montrer patte blanche
Chez Jeanne, la Jeanne On est n'importe qui, on vient n'importe quand Et, comme par miracle, par enchantement On fait partie de la famille Dans son cur, en s'poussant un peu Reste encore une petite place
La Jeanne, la Jeanne Elle est pauvre et sa table est souvent mal servie Mais le peu qu'on y trouve assouvit pour la vie Par la façon qu'elle le donne Son pain ressemble à du gâteau Et son eau à du vin comme deux gouttes d'eau
La Jeanne, la Jeanne On la paie quand on peut des prix mirobolants Un baiser sur son front ou sur ses cheveux blancs Un semblant d'accord de guitare L'adresse d'un chat échaudé Ou d'un chien tout crotté comm' pourboire
La Jeanne, la Jeanne Dans ses ros's et ses choux n'a pas trouvé d'enfant Qu'on aime et qu'on défend contre les quatre vents Et qu'on accroche à son corsage Et qu'on arrose avec son lait D'autres qu'elle en seraient tout's chagrines
Mais Jeanne, la Jeanne Ne s'en soucie pas plus que de colin-tampon Etre mère de trois poulpiquets, à quoi bon Quand elle est mère universelle Quand tous les enfants de la terre De la mer et du ciel sont à elle

I got a get away where we can go girl Just you and I no more bothering days Yes it's the perfect place to be alone girl Just you and I how can we lose let's get away I'm ready let's leave today To get away girl just for one day
I Do It For Your Love Composer(s): Paul Simon Performer(s): Paul Simon and multiple other artists
We were married on a rainy day The sky was yellow And the grass was grey We signed the papers And we drove away I do it for your love
The rooms were musty And the pipes were old All that winter we shared a cold Drank all the orange juice That we could hold I do it for your love
Found a rug In an old junk shop And I brought it home to you Along the way the colours ran The orange bled the blue
The sting of reason The splash of tears The northern and the southern hemisphere Love emerges and it disappears I do it for your love I do it for your love

To ev'ry girl, to ev'ry boy Whose empty heart has known no joy This emptiness is part of your love story Till you know the meaning of love To ev'ry one who feels afraid It's only Life that's on parade And Life may bring you tears, in place of glory Till you know the meaning of love There may be pain There may be misery All this may be Along with ecstacy Don't think these things are far above you It's always so, when someone loves you Your day will come, Your eyes will shine And you will cry, "This love is mine!" And suddenly your heart will tell you You know the meaning of love!

Staying Young Composer(s): Bob Merrill Performer(s): Walter Pidgeon and multiple other artists
Damn, damn, damn!
A man is a fool to lose his temper He plays right into the hand of his opponent If a man perturbs the nerves that should be placid Only stodges turn to acid
As they say in Christian Science, "Rise above it!" Should an elephant be panicked by an ant That's why a man's a fool to lose his temper Over a miserable son-of-a-..., like that
Imagine that, that squeeky little rat What an evil mind a man must have to make him so suspicious His little angel with her turned up spout I'll bet a lump of butter wouldn't melt in her mouth My son Richard doesn't know the score yet I'll bet Richard doesn't even know what girls are for yet
I should have taken that Macomber by the neck Wiped up the porch with him Dumped him in the grass Punched him in the nose
I'm glad I'm not yet an old like that And wind up losin' my hold like that Should the truth be known He's resentful of the young 'Cause he's over the hill, lookin' back And his hindsight's all out o' wack
I'm glad I'm not yet an old like that And wind up losin' my hold like that
The moon has a few new wrinkles It shines a bit more silver now than gold I'm stayin' young, I'm stayin' young But everyone around me's growin' old
When life only rains in sprinkles You've got to gather all your hands can hold I'm stayin' young, I'm stayin' young But everyone around me's growin' old
While love is still my jewel of recollection No Valentine too 'fraid and frail to fold So I'll go my heart's direction My story's in the telling, not the told I'm stayin' young, I'm stayin' young It's wonderful the way I hold my own When everything surrounding me has grown so old
Reprise:
The Moon has a few new wrinkles It shines a bit more silver now than gold I'm stayin' young, I'm stayin' young But everything around me's growin' old
The house has the creaks and trembles And winter leaves her shiverin' from cold I'm stayin' young, I'm stayin' young It's wonderful the way I hold my own When everything surrounding me has grown so old
My Wife, she's gettin' old I watch her when she walks and I feel a little ache It really is amazing all the changes time can make She asks me every day, "Is my hair getting grey?" And I look, but just a bit beyond And I say, "Hah, not grey, Dear, it's blonde"
I seek not for praise, but I have some days When I look so young and sporty I get looks from girls, from sweet things in curls Some of them as young as forty
When I meet some friend or neighbour I say it out of common decency I always say, "Why, you ain't changed a day" And then I have to laugh if they agree 'Cause everybody else is growin' old... like me!
Jeanie Composer(s): Mike Chapman; Nicky Chinn Performer(s): Sweet
The nights in this lonely world Makes this life for me Seem like an empty shell But I'll wait 'till time arrives Then we'll be together and I'll realize
The time I spend Just feeling blue Is all worth while Now I'm with you, Jeanie
The sails on the open sea Try to take the thought of you Away from me The blue visions in my eyes Constantly remain And make me realize
The dreams I spend Just looking through Seem all worth while Now I'm with you, Jeanie
And now through the morning light Traces of your voice That echo warm me night You appear and the sun will rise Reaching out through me And then I'll realize
The time I spend Just feeling blue Is all worth while Now I'm with you, Jeanie
The time I spend Just feeling blue Is all worth while Now I'm with you, Jeanie
Yeah, the time I spend Just feeling blue Is all worth while Now I'm with you, Jeanie
I Dig Rock And Roll Music Composer(s): Dave Dixon; James Mason; Noel Paul Stookey Performer(s): Peter, Paul and Mary and multiple other artists
I dig Rock and Roll music and I love to get the chance to play (and sing it) I figure it's about the happiest sound goin' down today The message may not move me or mean a great deal to me But hey! it feels so groovy to say
I dig the Mamas and the Papas at "The Trip" Sunset Strip in L.A. And they got a good thing goin' when the words don't get in the way And when they're really wailing, Michelle and Cass are sailin' Hey! they really nail me to the wall
I dig Donovan in a dream-like, tripped out way His crystal images tell you 'bout a brighter day And when the Beatles tell you They've got a word "love" to sell you They mean exactly what they say
I dig Rock and Roll music I could really get it on in that scene. I think I could say somethin' if you know what I mean But if I really say it, the radio won't play it Unless I lay it between the lines!
