Jupiter Child Composer(s): Jerry Edmonton; John Kay; Michael Monarch Performer(s): Steppenwolf
The one who reads the stars has told me Why you're not like everyone Your father is a fiery wizard He travels all around the sun No one ever knew just where you came from Orphan girl, you grew up wild Your father left you on the way home Yes, girl, you're a Jupiter's child
Wish I knew the way back Back to where you came Gladly I would leave here Take another name I can tell by you, it must be true It's up on Jupiter's face They don't embrace our own disgrace Somebody, help me off this place
You really quite belonged Like a pearl among the swine You tried to live the way we do Hoping you would learn in time But, mankind, with all it's virtue Will soon make you lose your smile On this earth, with all it's madness Heaven help a Jupiter's child
Wish I knew the way back Back to where you came Gladly I would leave here Take another name I can tell by you, it must be true It's up on Jupiter's face They don't embrace our own disgrace Somebody, get me off this place
Totor T'as Tort Composer(s): Jean Boyer - René Mercier Performer(s): Georges Milton
Dans l'quartier d'la gare du Nord Tout le monde connaît Victor Ce garçon fait un métier Très particulier! Il passe les rails de chemin d'fer Chaque jour au papier d'verre Et comme il n'est pas feignant Chacun s'écrie en le plaignant
Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Vas-y doucement Presse pas l'mouvement C'est pas normal Tu t'feras du mal Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Sois moins pressé Rien n'est cassé Fais ton boulot Piano Piano! Tu perds toutes tes vitamines Regarde un peu ta bobine! T'as pas bonne mine Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? variante pour les deux dernières lignes T'as tout un tas de tics et tu t'éteins Tu t'attaques à ton teint
En amour c'est bien kif kif Totor est très excessif! Il n'est jamais à zéro C'est un brasero! Mais quand elle est dans ses bras Sa moitié ne s'en plaint pas! Il la serre tellement fort Qu'elle soupire en perdant le nord:
Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Vas-y doucement Presse pas l'mouvement C'est pas normal Tu t'feras du mal Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Sois moins pressé Rien n'est cassé Fais ton boulot Piano Piano! Tu perds toutes tes vitamines Regarde un peu ta bobine! T'as pas bonne mine Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? variante pour les deux dernières lignes T'as tout un tas de tics et tu t'éteins Tu t'attaques à ton teint
Est-c' les rails ou bien l'amour Mais Totor maigrit chaque jour Il a dû l'autre matin Voir un grand médecin L'docteur a pris sa tension Sa fièvre et ses pulsations Il a pris cent francs aussi Simplement pour lui dire ceci
Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Vas-y doucement Presse pas l'mouvement C'est pas normal Tu t'feras du mal Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? Sois moins pressé Rien n'est cassé Fais ton boulot Piano Piano! Tu perds toutes tes vitamines Regarde un peu ta bobine! T'as pas bonne mine Totor t'as tort tu t'uses et tu te tues Pourquoi t'entêtes-tu? variante pour les deux dernières lignes T'as tout un tas de tics et tu t'éteins Tu t'attaques à ton teint
Jupiter Composer(s): Maurice White; Verdine White; Larry Dunn; Philip Bailey Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire; Al McKay Allstars
Searching in the sky one night, while looking for the moon I viewed a mighty light approching in a zoom Need was there to tell someone of my discovery Fifteen seconds later, a light appeared in front of me To my surprise, there stood a man with age and mystery His name was Jupiter and came to visit me
The name is Jupiter, from the galaxy I came to meet you, to make you free Deliver to you a flower from A distant planet, from where I come
Keep your eye on Jupiter, such beauty in the sky We will wait for your return in the by & by Keep your eye on Jupiter, memories we shall fulfill Just to view a brighter day, and do a righteous will
Watching and considering my visual state of mind The flower fragrance help reveal to me the sign The sigh of love, I had confessed to live and really know The sign of love which I had failed my fellowman to show
The name is Jupiter, from the galaxy I came to meet you, to make you free Deliver to you a flower from A distant planet, from where I come
The name is Jupiter, from the galaxy I came to meet you, to make you free Deliver to you a flower from A distant planet, from where I come

I like 'em, they like me, its crazy, I like them all
Junkie Composer(s): Allen Collins; Ronnie Van Zant Performer(s): Lynyrd Skynyrd; Havana Black
Disillusions fillin' my head Never happy, I wished I was dead Can't remember things I used to know Take another hit Lord, let the four winds blow Junkie, junkie man Feel so lonely, I wish I could cry Suicidal, not man enough to die Can't remember ever feelin' this low Take another hit babe, here I go Junkie, junkie man
Yonder come a man, Lord he's got my snow Help me out babe, get down low But I can't remember things I used to know The Lord knows I'm to blame Take another hit Lord, and let the four winds blow Junkie, junkie man

Je tourne en rond Tu sais que quelques fois je me sens seule et perdue Est ce que tu me reviendras Je tourne en rond Tu sais que quelque fois je me sens loin de toi Dis est ce que tu te souviendras de moi Je tourne en rond Sur la terre entière je me sens abandonnée Dis est ce que tout ça va changer Je tourne en rond Pour habiter ma solitude de mon mieux Moi qui ne sais qu'être deux Je tourne en rond sans toi Tu sais que quelque fois j'ai peur de toi Je tourne en rond sans toi Tu sais que quelque fois j'ai peur de moi Turn around Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild Turn around Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms Turn around Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry Turn around Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Je tourne en rond sans toi Tu sais que quelques fois j'ai peur de toi Je tourne en rond sans toi Tu sais que quelques fois j'ai peur de moi
Et j'ai tant besoin de toi Et j'ai tant besoin de ta voix Je veux tomber dans tes bras Je voudrais marcher dans tes pas On invente les règles du jeu Quand on est tous les deux Ensemble nous irons jusqu'au bout du chemin Je tiendrai dans ton ombre Si tu me prends la main Retiens moi si je sombre je suis ta prisonnière Si loin de notre monde j'ai la tête à l'envers J'ai vraiment besoin de toi Si demain commençait ce soir Si demain commençait ce soir Il était une fois une femme amoureuse Peut-être un p'tit peu trop rêveuse Tant pis si j'en pleure tu as tous les droits sur mon cur Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart A total eclipse of the heart Et j'ai tant besoin de toi Et j'ai tant besoin de ta voix Je veux tomber dans tes bras Je voudrais marcher dans tes pas On invente les règles du jeu Quand on est tous les deux
Together we can take it to the end of the line Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
Retiens moi si je sombre je suis ta prisonnière Si loin de notre monde j'ai la tête à l'envers
I really need you tonight Forever's gonna start tonight Si demain commençait ce soir
Il était une fois une femme amoureuse Peut être un p'tit peu trop rêveuse Tant pis si j'en pleure regarde moi droit dans le cur
Total eclipse of the heart Si demain commençait ce soir Regarde moi droit dans le cur

Mírame De vez en cuando siento que me estas olvidando Y que no regresaras Mírame De vez en cuando pienso que ya estoy muy cansada De estar sola y de escucharme llorar Mírame De vez en cuando miro atrás y veo con miedo Lo mejor de nuestro años correr Mírame De vez en cuando quiero escaparme y tu mirada Me envuelve y me vuelvo a perder Mira mis ojos De vez en cuando siento enloquecer Mira mis ojos De vez en cuando siento enloquecer
Mírame De vez en cuando sueño con alguna locura Y no quiero despertar Mírame De vez en cuando miento cuando buscas mis ojos Y preguntas ¿cómo estas? Mírame De vez en cuando muero de rabia y de celos Pero nunca te lo dejo saber Mírame De vez en cuando quiero escaparme y tu mirada Me envuelve y me vuelvo a perder Mira mis ojos De vez en cuando siento enloquecer Mira mis ojos De vez en cuando siento enloquecer
Y esta noche quiero más Que me abraces fuertemente En tus brazos soñare Que el amor es para siempre Que penumbres un rayo de luz Nos envuelva a los dos Vivimos atrapados en juego de azar Tu amor es una sombra Para mi libertad (mi libertad) Ya nada puedo hacer Y no logro escapar De un juego sobre pólvora Que puede estallar
Y así te tengo que amar El tiempo acaba de empezar El tiempo no termina...
Erase una vez una historia feliz Y ahora solo un cuento de horror
No hay nada que decir Eclipse total del amor

I Like Mountain Music Composer(s): Frank Weldon; James Cavanaugh Performer(s): Hoosier Hot Shots and multiple other artists
When the Sun goes down and the chores are through There ain't nothin' better I like to do Than sit around the house when the folks ain't home And listen to the music on a gramophone
I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em I think the melodies are grand
I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki But I must say you can't beat "Turkey in the straw", by cracky! I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band
To the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee Came a hula girl from over the sea With sparkling eyes, lips so red She looked at me and then she said
I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em I think the melodies are grand
I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki But I must say you can't beat "Turkey in the straw", by cracky! I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band
Her flashy clothes are really neat Flowing hair and dancing feet When she does the hula, she can drive you wild Swingin' and swayin' in the mountain style
I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em I think the melodies are grand
I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki But I must say you can't beat "Turkey in the straw", by cracky! I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band
While the fiddles play and the guitars ring The people laugh, you can hear them sing This hula girl can swing and sway You can hear her shout to the break of day
I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em I think the melodies are grand
I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki But I must say you can't beat "Turkey in the straw", by cracky! I like mountain music, good old mountain music Played by a real hillbilly band

I Like Men! Composer(s): Peggy Lee; Jack Marshall Performer(s): Peggy Lee
Maybe he has sandy hair Or maybe his eyes are brown or blue Maybe he has a fault or two But I like men
Maybe he's a millionaire or maybe he's poor I just don't care Why he can even lose his hair 'Cause I like men
I like the masculine I like the mind I like any other kind that I can find
So the way I feel It's not hard to decide I'll take Southern hospitality or Northern Pride And if has a gentle way Then maybe he'll make me feel so frail Well that's my favorite kind of male 'Cause I like men
Ridin' down a highway in my ragged Greyhound bus Wanted to buy me some food
but my money didn't have enough No time for foolin' around I had to go an' do a show So I edged it off the highway at a 7-11 store
I bought junk food I bought me some junk food I bought some junk food I bought some junk food I bought me some junk food, junk food Lord, Lord, Lord
I bought a long hot dog Wasn't no steak dinner but I ate just the same Wasn't no hamburger, I didn't stop at Burger King It wasn't no Fat Mac, and it wasn't no barbecue It wasn't no collard greens, I tell ya but plain old junk food
I was eatin' junk food I was eatin' this junk food I was eatin' some junk food I was eatin' this junk food I was eatin' junk food, junk food Lord, Lord, Lord
I ate a foot long dog
I hate this junk food It's bad for my health But I'm playin' these lousy blues An' I can't afford nothin' else Never made too much money So that's all I've got to eat Them Polish hot dog and I buy 'em on Maxwell Street1
Got to eat junk food I got to eat junk food I got to eat junk food I got to eat junk food I got to eat junk food, junk food Woo Woo Wee
Tôt ou tard s'en aller Par les ruisseaux devant nous Jusqu'au milieu d'une mer quelconque Sur le pont brisé d'une jonque On va tôt ou tard s'en aller Quelques vestes froissées Quelques cartons en morceaux Dans les brouillards huileux de la nuit Juste nos corps frileux endormis Sur quelques vestes froissées J'avais des rêves pourtant J'avais des rêves J'avais des rêves pourtant Voir les trains s'éloigner Les plafonds chargés de bijoux Et tous ces gens attablés, heureux Et nous, sur les bas-côtés, fiévreux De voir les trains s'éloigner Quelquefois les enfants demandent Comment fait-on pour finir ici Sans doute, je dormais sur une feuille Et l'automne m'a surpris! J'avais des rêves pourtant J'avais des rêves J'avais des rêves pourtant Mais tôt ou tard s'en aller Par les ruisseaux devant nous Jusqu'au milieu d'une mer quelconque Sur le pont brisé d'une jonque On va tôt ou tard s'en aller Tôt ou tard s'en aller Tôt ou tard s'en aller
