I'm ready, ready as anybody can be 
I'm ready, ready as anybody can be 
Now I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me 

I got an axe handle pistol on a graveyard frame 
That shoot tombstone bullets, wearin' balls and chain 
I'm drinkin' TNT, I'm smokin' dynamite 
I hope some screwball start a fight 
'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be 
I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me 

All you pretty little chicks with your pretty little hair 
I know you feels like I ain't nowhere 
But stop what your doin' baby come overhere 
I'll prove to you baby, that I ain't no square 
Because I'm ready, ready as anybody can be 
Now I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me

I feel so good, I want you to know 
One more drink, I wish you would 
I takes a whole lotta lovin' to make me feel good 
'Cause I'm ready, ready as anybody can be 
Now I'm ready for you, I hope you're ready for me

Evolution
Composer(s): Ronnie Lane
Performer(s): Pete Townshend



Well, once I was a stone, many years ago
Into a pool was thrown, many years ago
Time went by and the pool ran dry
Excavated was I, and tempered and beat in the fiery heat
By the hand of a man, whose name was Dan, Dan the blacksmith

Well once I was a sword, many years ago
And my blade was broad, many years ago
Wore it with pride, and into battle I'd ride, on a warrior side
And cut my tail, their was loss of my tail
and soon did rust ,corrode to dust, oh my

Well once I was a daisy, many years ago
In pastures green and lazy, many years ago
But I was et by a goat who fell in a moat
And forgetting to float he sunk like a lead and stayed until dead
And was relieved to find just how kind it all was

Well once I was a grub, many years ago
And I lived among that mud , many years ago
But I'm a reckless mood, and I gave it a Coo
That was it with a prune, and when the good Lord was done
I walked with the sun, I shed my skins
And tried my wings and flew away

Well, once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival
And once I was a carp and lived in waters on the meadow
And once I was a mynah bird, quoting verses from the Bible
I said pretty boy, pretty boy, Saint Luke

Well once I was a mule, many years ago
and my master treat me cruel, many years ago
By by was sick, so I moved to a kick, 
So I took out a stick , laid it back across my back
To an almighty crack to my dismay
I cast away into the blue

Then I was born a human baby, many years ago
I remember I was born unto a lady, many years ago
All our hopes were piled on the back of a child
Who turned out to be wild, sent the devil a prayer
Caused the parson to swear so I took my leave
To lie and thieve, on my way to jail

Well, I've been a tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor
Known good times and disaster
But now I have a teacher and my teacher has a master
And the master is perfection, so he'll help us get there faster
Don't need no proof, 'cause that's the truth, and I'll drink to that!

I'm Putting All My Eggs In One Basket 
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers



Fred: 
I've been a roaming Romeo
My Juliet's have been many
But now my roaming days have gone
Too many irons in the fire
Is worse than not having any
I've had my share and from now on...
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you
I'm giving all my love to one baby
Heaven help me if my baby don't come through
I've got a great big amount saved up in my love account
Honey, and I've decided, love divided in two won't do
So I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you

Ginger:
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you
I'm giving all my love to one baby
Heaven help me if my baby don't come through
I've tried to love more than one, finding it just can't be done
Honey, there's one I lie to when I try to be true to two
So I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you

Evita
Performer(s): Madonna



Peron:
Dice are rolling, the knives are out
Would be presidents are all around
I don't say they mean harm, but they'd each give an arm
To see us six feet under ground

Eva:
It doesn't matter what those morons say
Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew
There's only twenty of them anyway
What is twenty next to millions who
Are looking to you?

All you have to do is sit and wait
Keeping out of everybody's way
We'll--you'll be handed power on a plate
When the ones who matter have their say
And with chaos instAll:ed
You can reluctantly agree to be cAll:ed

Peron:
There again we could be foolish
Not to quit while we're ahead
For distance lends enchantment
And that is why
All exiles are distinguished
More important they're not dead
I could find job satisfaction
In Paraguay

Eva:
This is crazy defeatist talk
Why commit political suicide?
There's no risk; there's no call
for any action at all
when you have unions on your side

Workers' Voices:
Peron! Peron!

Che:
A new Argentina!
The chains of the masses untied!
A new Argentina!
The voice of the people cannot be denied!

Eva:
There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime
He lives for your problems, he shares your ideals and your dreams
He supports you for he loves you, understands you, is one of you
If not--how could he love me?

Mob:
A new Argentina!
The workers' battle song!
A new Argentina!
The voice of the people rings out loud and long!

Eva:
Now I am a worker I've suffered the way that you do
I've been unemployed and I've starved and I hated it too
But I found my salvation in Peron--may the nation
Let him save them as he saved me

Che:
A new Argentina!
A new age about to begin!

Che and Secret Police:
A new Argentina!
We face the world together and no dissent within

(The Secret Police lay into Che)

Individual Workers:
Nationalisation of the industries that the foreigners control
Participation in the profits that we make
Shorter hours
Higher wages
Votes for women
Larger dole
More public spending
A bigger slice of every cake

Peron:
It's annoying that we have to fight elections for our cause
The inconvenience--having to get a majority
If normal methods of persuasion fail to win us applause
There are other ways of establishing authority

Secret Police:
We have ways of making you vote for us, or at least of making you abstain

Eva:
Peron: has resigned from the army and this we avow
The descamisados are those he is marching with now!
He supports you for he loves you, understands you, is one of you
If not--how could he love me?

All:
A new Argentina!
The chains of the masses untied!
A new Argentina!
The voice of the people cannot be, and will not be, and must not be, denied!

Peron:
There again we could be foolish
Not to quit while we're ahead
I can see me many miles away
Inactive
Sipping cocktails on a terrace
Taking breakfast in bed
Sleeping easy, doing crosswords
It's attractive

Eva:
Don't think I don't think like you, I often get those nightmares too
They always take some swallowing
Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum if
It's you that you are following
Don't close doors
Keep an escape clause
Because we might lose
The Big Apple
But--would I have done, what I did
If I hadn't thought, if I hadn't known
We would take the country?

All:
A new Argentina!
The chains of the masses untied!
A new Argentina!
The voice of the people cannot be, and will not be, and must not be, denied!

Evil Ways
Composer(s): Sonny Henry; Joe Zack
Performer(s): Santana



You've got to change your evil ways, baby
Before I stop lovin' you
You've got to change, baby
And every word that I say is true
You've got me runnin' and hidin'
All over town
You've got me sneakin' and a peepin'
And runnin' you down
This can't go on
Lord knows you've got to change
Baby, baby


When I come home, baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You're hanging around, baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
I'll find somebody who won't 
Make me feel like a clown 
This can't go on
Lord knows you've got to change 

I'm Past My Prime
Composer(s): Gene de Paul; Johnny Mercer
Emily Skinner & Alice Ripley



Daisy Mae
Marryin' Sam    
I'm past my prime 
What a shame
And I'm losin' time
Guess the old clock's run down
Seventeen last spring                             
My, what a wasted life
Still without a ring
When will you be a wife?
I'm past my peak
You're an early antique
Look at this physique
Just hear the old bones creak
Where there was a glow
There ain't a glow no more
Now the wrinkles show
Where art Thou Romeo?

Who'd think of marryin' an octogenarian,
Oh, me, oh, my
Eighty-seven year old hag
When you're in this position you'll lose your disposition
Oh, me, oh, my
All the time it's nag, nag, nag

Life's like a song
And the happiest thing
When you're young and strong
Most everyday is spring
But it's just a crime
You can't get off the time
When you're past your prime

You's past your prime
Gettin' grumpy and grey
You's on over time
Ain't making take-home pay
Every sun that sets
All through the day I frets
Brings ya more regrets
And larger silhouettes
You's climb the heights
I is over the hill
Of romantic nights
My hand has lost it's skill
Comes the cruel dawn
I's feelin' pale and drawn
Lover boy has gone
Dog gone!

I ask you who's elated when you's Methusilated
Oh, me, oh, my
Like a mummy underground
When you is antiquated ors/and dejectaquated
Oh, me, oh, my
They'd prefers you in the round

Life's just like pie
Huckleberry or peach?
When you're young and spry
Heaven's within your reach
But it's just a crime
How can it be sublime
When you're past your prime?
When you're past your prime?
When you're past your prime?

Evil Love Chain
Composer(s): Barry Hay; George Kooymans
Performer(s): Golden Earring



She took my money
She stole my car
Broke my heart
And smashed my guitar
She slandered my name
And laughed in my face
And on Saturday night
She went and trashed the whole place

She's driving me crazy
Beyond insane
She plays with my mind
As if it's a game
And most of all
Stranger than strange
I come begging for more
Again and again

I can't break away
From the circle of pain
I can't break away
This evil love-chain

She's mean when she's happy
Cruel when she's sad
She finds something good
And she turns it to bad
She's young and good-looking
And shakes the whole bed
While black magic voodoo
Lives inside her head

The girl is a menace
A danger,a threat
Can't get no worse
She's as bad as it gets
She looks like a princess
But I know instead
She's Dracula's daughter
And the angel of death

When I wake up early in the morning 
Lift my head, I'm still yawning 
When I'm in the middle of a dream 
Stay in bed, float upstream (float upstream) 
Please don't wake me, no, don't shake me 
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping 

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy 
I don't mind I think they're crazy 
Running everywhere at such a speed 
Till they find there's no need (there's no need) 

Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away 
And after all I'm only sleeping 
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window 
Taking my time, lying there and staring at the ceiling 
Waiting for a sleepy feeling 

Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away 
And after all I'm only sleeping 
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window 
Taking my time 

When I wake up early in the morning 
Lift my head, I'm still yawning 
When I'm in the middle of a dream 
Stay in bed, float upstream (float upstream) 
Please don't wake me, no, don't shake me 
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping

Now I don't even care
If my baby leaves me flat
'Cause I got forty-seven others
If it comes to that

If it rains from now on
An' if the girl that I love
Ain't never been bo'n
Because l'm evil, evil hearted me

It's a long way from home
Can't sleep at night
Call on your telephone
Something just ain't right
That's evil, evil is going on wrong
I want to warn you brother
You better watch your happy home

You make it to your house
Knock on the front door
Run 'round to the back 
You'll catch him just before he goes
That's evil, evil is going on
I have warned you brother
You better watch your happy home

If you call on the telephone 
And she answers long and slow
Grab the first thing smoking 
And you have to haul her home
That's evil, evil is going on wrong
I have warned you brother
You better watch your happy home

I'm On My Way To Mandalay
Composer(s): Al. Bryan; Fred Fisher



One I love, far away, far away, far away
Land of Love, Mandalay Mandalay, Mandalay
Where the waving trees kiss the ocean breeze 
In a garden fair, 'mid the roses there
I'm goin' to find someone who waits for me across the sea

All night long, by the sea, by the sea, by the sea
Her love song Rings for me, rings for me, rings for me
All the world will seem just a lovely dream
And I'll never stray far from Mandalay
I'll live for one who lives alone for me in days to be

I'm on my way to Mandalay
Beneath the shelt'ring palms I want to stray
Oh, let me live and love for aye
On that Island far away
I'm sentimental for my Oriental love, so sweet and gentle
That's why I'm on my way to Mandalay
I've come to say "Good-bye"

Evidence Of Love
Composer(s): Steve Diamond; Chris Farron
Performer(s): Gregg Allman



When I look for the love in your eyes
You turn away
And there's nothing as loud as the words
We never say
Look at us now, standing on the edge again
Look at us now, it's not too late to try again
I need some...

Evidence of love, to keep me going on
Please show me some
Evidence of love, and I'll be here
I still believe we can see it through
There's just so much, that I can do
It doesn't make sense, without some evidence of love

There's a cold, cold look on your face
Is it saying good-bye?
'Cause there's nothing as cold as the ashes
When the fire has died
Talk to me now, tell me what you're missing
Talk to me now, I'll try and find your heart again
I need some...

Evidence of love, to keep me going on
Please show me some
Evidence of love, and I'll be here
I still believe we can see it through
There's just so much, that I can do
It doesn't make sense, without some evidence of love

Stand and fight
Try to say what's on your mind, baby
So much is on the line
There's a chance we'll make it right

Look at us now, standing on the edge again
Look at us now, it's not too late to try again
I need some...

Evidence of love, to keep me going on
Please show me some
Evidence of love, and I'll be here
