Well I'm a hog for you baby I can't get enough of your love I'm a hog for you baby I can't get enough of your love When I go to sleep at night You're the only thing I'm dreaming of

Yes, I'm a hit again Made it back in your top ten Thought for a long, long while I'd just gone out o' style Folks wondered where I had been Now, I'm a hit again
Yes, I can see by the chart I made it back in your heart I wanna be number one Have an award-winning run I'm back in the top ten Yes, I'm a hit again
I hope that it's in the cards For me to win an award And when the countin' is through I'll be a standard with you
Yes, I'm a hit again I'm back in the top ten The very latest trim I'm a hit again
Estoy hablando solo Estoy hablando solo Y sin embargo ciento que estás conmigo No puedo acostumbrarme No puedo acostumbrarme Y sin embargo es cierto que te has ido Estoy llorando hoy por ti Después de tanto tiempo Que a veces te maldigo sin querer Y luego me arrepiento Estoy llorando hoy por ti Ya ves qué tontería Pasaron tantos años y otra vez Volví a pensar en ti Recuerdo aquella tarde La lluvia se durmió serenamente Detrás de la ventana Hacía tanto frío que al filo de la noche Se quedaron heladas las miradas Nacía por primera vez La palabra silencio Creímos en el sueño del amor Y luego no era cierto
I'm A Gigolo Composer(s): Cole Porter First release by: Leslie Hutchinson - 1929
I should like you all to know I'm a famous gigolo And of lavender, my nature's got just a dash in it As I'm slightly undersexed You will always find me next To some dowager who's wealthy rather than passionate Go to one of those night club places And you'll find me stretching my braces Pushing ladies with lifted faces 'round the floor But I must confess to you There are moments when I'm blue And I ask myself whatever I do it for
I'm a flower that blooms in the winter Sinking deeper and deeper in snow I'm a baby who has No mother but jazz I'm a gigolo Ev'ry morning, when labor is over To my sweet-scented lodgings I go Take the glass from the shelf And look at myself I'm a gigolo I get stocks and bonds From faded blondes Ev'ry twenty-fifth of December Still I'm just a pet That men forget And only tailors remember Yet when I see the way all the ladies Treat their husbands who put up the dough You cannot think me odd If then I thank God I'm a gigolo
Estoy Ciego Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Nena, estoy ciego por mas que quiera no te veo no veo el sol, no veo el mar me pierdo en la ciudad yo amo la oscuridad hasta el aire que respiro me esta haciendo mal la comida que como sabe artificial tu amor en cápsulas sigámonos amando en la oscuridad en la oscuridad
Nena, estoy ciego por mas que quiera no te veo Polución, mutación, contaminación nos ciegan el corazón Talan todo el Amazonas y yo no lo veo hay un agujero en cielo y yo no lo veo el mar lleno de gas-oil sigámonos amando en la oscuridad en la oscuridad
C.I.A., F.B.I. todo lo que dicen es bullshit hay que patear, gritar, esto se va acabar porque sino la bomba va a estallar
hasta el aire que respiro me esta haciendo mal la comida que como sabe artificial tu amor en cápsulas sigámonos amando en la oscuridad en la oscuridad
Baby, I'm blind I want to tell you who I am Baby, I'm blind I want to tell you who I am Baby, I'm blind por mas que quiera no te veo
I'm A Fool To Want You Composer(s): Joel Herron; Frank Sinatra; Jack Wolf First release by: Frank Sinatra - 1951 Covered by multiple other artists
I'm a fool to want you I'm a fool to want you To want a love that can't be true A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you Such a fool to hold you To seek a kiss not mine alone To share a kiss the Devil has known
Time and time again I said I'd leave you Time and time again I went away But then would come the time when I would need you And once again these words I'd have to say
I'm a fool to want you Pity me, I need you I know it's wrong, it must be wrong But right or wrong I can't get along Without you
Time and time again I said I'd leave you Time and time again I went away But then would come the time when I would need you And once again these words I'd have to say
Take me back, I love you Pity me, I need you I know it's wrong, it must be wrong But right or wrong I can't get along
Desde hoy quisiera discutir Ya sabes que tienes plena libertad Lo ves, tengo yo siempre que decir Esto sí, esto no, por amor Oye mujer elige ahora tú Que quiero someterme alguna vez Me tocan a mí las cosas siempre más difíciles Esto sí, esto no, por amor Pero no, ahora tienes que elegir Si esto sigue o lo dejamos así El destino no soy sólo yo Lo tenemos que hacer entre dos Ahora siéntate y di sin temor Esto sí, esto no, esto sí, por amor Ya ves, es imposible Me toca a mí de nuevo disponer Y temo equivocarme sin tu decisión Esto sí, esto no, esto sí, esto no Esto sí, esto no, esto sí, esto no Esto no
Tú me recuerdas el prado de los soñadores El muro que nos separa del mar, si es de noche Tú me recuerdas sentada, ciertos sentimientos Qué nunca se sabe que traen en las alas Si vivos o muertos, si vivos o muertos
Me quito el rostro y lo doblo encima del pantalón Si no he de decir tu nombre, si ajeno se esconde No quiero expresión Suelen mis ojos tener como impresos sus sueños, risueños
Tú me recuerdas las calles de La Habana Vieja La Catedral sumergida en su baño de tejas Tú me recuerdas las cosas, no se, las ventanas Donde los cantores nocturnos cantaban Amor a La Habana, amor a La Habana
Esto no es una elegía, ni es un romance, ni un verso Más bien una acción de gracias Por darle a mis ansias razón para un beso Una modesta corona encontrada en la aurora
Tú me recuerdas el mundo de un adolescente Un seminiño asustado, mirando a la gente Un ángel interrogado, un sueño acostado La maldición, la blasfemia de un continente Y un poco de muerte, y un poco de muerte
I'm A Drifter Composer(s): Dolly Parton First release by: Dolly Parton - 1976
I'm a drifter, a driftin' drifter Got no place to call my home no more I'm a wanderer, a wandering wanderer Got no one to call my own no more Got no strings to tie me down Got no cause to hang around What difference does it make which way i go Got an empty feelin' down inside Still i need to stay alive And who can tell what waits beyond this road I'm a drifter, a driftin' drifter Got no one to call my own no more
Got no strings to tie me down Got no cause to hang around What difference does it make which way i go Got an empty feelin' deep inside Still i need to stay alive Who can tell what waits beyond this road I'm a drifter, a driftin' drifter Got no one to call my own no more
Esto ya pasó Está pasando Pasará Y no pasó nunca (Aquí va un mensaje al futuro) Esto lo estoy tocando mañana
Soñadores sueñen hoy Que escuchan este grito del pasado Esto lo estoy tocando mañana
Narración: Julio Cortázar
Que a un señor lo sientan en una silla en un estudio de grabación y hay un gran silencio y luego sale una voz así como de la nada una voz que parece ya muerta y del otro lado habrá un día un señor que comprará el disco y lo escuchará en su casa y será un poco, también, como si él estuviera muerto cuando lo escucha
Todo es distante y diferente y parece inconciliable, y a la vez todo se da simultáneamente en este momento, que todavía no existe para mí y que es, sin embargo, el momento en que usted escucha estas palabras que yo grabé en el pasado, es decir en un tiempo que para mí, ahora, es el futuro Juegos de la imaginación, dirá el señor sensato que nunca falta entre los locos Como si eso fuera a decir algo
I'm A Drifter Composer(s): Bobby Goldsboro Performer(s): Bobby Goldsboro
You knew I could not stay for long when you asked me to come over in the wee hours of the mornin'
I said I could not let the sunrise catch me sleepin' and that is why I've givin' you fair warnin'
And though you might have loved me like I never ever have been loved before your front door is open and I've got to keep on movin'
So I will stay with you a while and then I'll let my hitch hike thumb take me to where I wanna
Because I've got to keep on searchin' for the dream that I've been seekin' since I left my home in Oklahoma
And who's to say but that I might not be back tomorrow if I find there's only sorrow you may see me from your windowsill next mornin'
I'm a drifter and I've seen the rain I'm a drifter and I've felt the pain, the pain that comes with loneliness So I drift from town to town searchin' all around Lookin' for the answer to my sorrow And if the answer is you then I'll be back tomorrow
Let's make the most of time before the break of day but don't try to make me stay if I don't want to
Because I've got to keep on searchin' for that dream and you can't bind me with the simple words I love you
But if I realize the dream that I've been searchin' for is waitin' here behind your door then I'll come back to stay if you still want me to
I'm a drifter and I've seen the rain I'm a drifter and I've felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness So I drift from town to town searchin' all around Lookin for the answer to my sorrow And if the answer is you then I'll be back tomorrow
I'm a drifter and I've seen the rain I'm a drifter and I've felt the pain the pain that comes with loneliness So I drift from town to town searchin' all around Lookin for the answer to my sorrow And if the answer is you then I'll be back tomorrow
I'm A Dreamer That's Chasing Bubbles Composer(s): George A. Little; Frank Magine
Dreams of my heart you're a wonderful dream Although you never come true But still I cherish in fond memory The hours I spent with you
Dream of my heart if you would but come true I'd see the sunshine again But dear it seems I'll forever be blue My heart's always filled with pain
I'm a dreamer that's chasing Bubbles and the world knows that I'm in love I have wandered along still I drift alone While I look at the sky above And I beg every star just to guide me Where each one in love should go But I dream and the world's like a bubble When it breaks, no one knows where it goes
Este Mundo Va Composer(s): Miguel Bosé - M. Grilli
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
El tiempo pasa y no de largo y hay quien no se entera que somos los mismos envueltos en novedad Me dices: "Cambias.. sin embargo tu entusiasmo sigue ahí no me has preguntado si me da igual o no Oh! No
Amor, te escribo y soy testigo de lo que se pierde y voy a acostumbrarme aunque me cueste...
Dáme al menos tiempo y que respire no es un arte fácil prometer dáme al menos tiempo de despedirme
Porque en un mundo que va a la velocidad del rayo aguanto el vuelo más si me agarro de tu mano acompáñame hasta donde pueda llegar en este mundo que va como la luz del pensamiento el mérito está en no quedarme en el intento y aunque no lo quiera ¿Que duda cabe ya? Que este mundo va
Me primavero y me otoño me estío y me invierno me adapto con seriedad... Dáme al menos dos oportunidades y tus ojos me verán crecer dáme al menos un par de posibilidades...

I'm A Caterpillar Of Society (Not A Social Butterfly)
I'm A Caterpillar Of Society (Not A Social Butterfly) From "Who Killed Cock Robin?" (1979) Composer(s): Peter Wesley-Smith; Martin Wesley-Smith
I'm a Caterpillar of Society Not a Social Butterfly I can run, jump, fight, wheel a barrow, ride a bike Let me explain the reason why I have a very healthy appetite And I eat up all my greens Such as cabbage, lettuce, peas and celery Cucumbers and beans Here I go: Munch, crunch, ah, delicious! Chomp chomp and so nutritious! Munch crunch Here's a bean about to be a has-been In you go! You see, it's succulently juicy, ah, magnifico! See the dribble - it only takes a nibble I'm red, black and yellow A fine-looking fellow All because I eat my greens
I'm a Caterpillar of Variety I can juggle and sing and joke As well as run, jump, fight, wheel a barrow, ride a bike I am a clever kind of bloke As a dancer I am dynamite When I don my dancing shoes I can disco, tango, jive and rock'n'roll Just read my reviews Here I go It's a beautiful waltz on tippy-toe! It's beautiful schmaltz, what a show! I can do somersaults, magnifico! I can tap, I'm a clever kind of chap! I'm red, black and yellow A fine-looking fellow All because I eat my greens
I'm a Caterpillar of Anxiety For I am hunted like a thief Though I can run, jump, fight, wheel a barrow, ride a bike I have to hide beneath a leaf It's because I'm so delectable All the birds want me to eat I have to watch out - Slurp!!
In fact he was a Caterpillar of Adversity He was getting iller ev'ry day No longer could he run, jump, fight, wheel a barrow, ride a bike For him the skies were always grey It was because of all the pesticides That were sprayed on all his greens Such as DDE, DDA, DDD, and DDT ...
