Extranjera Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Se fue de su pueblo un día hace tiempo ya, pensando volver llevaba una maleta vieja y en el corazón, toda su niñez Igual que un ave viajera ella tuvo que emigrar buscando una vida nueva... Extranjera Llegó a un país lejano que le dio calor, y porvenir se enamoró de un muchacho que le dio su amor, y fue feliz Pero al pensar en su tierra siente ganas de llorar y quiere volver a ella... Extrajera Extranjera, extranjera aún te grita el corazón cuando suena una guitarra o alguien canta una canción, de tu país no lo puedes evitar... Extranjera Después llegaron los hijos y hubo que luchar, y hacerlos crecer y así pasaron los años sin dejarla ya, poder volver Pero va al mar y aunque calle su alma vuelve a recordar cuando era niña en su playa... Extranjera Extranjera, extranjera aún te sientes en la piel cuando te hablan de la tierra que una vez te vio nacer, lejos de aquí no lo puedes evitar... Extranjera Extranjera, extranjera aún te grita el corazón cuando suena una guitarra o alguien canta una canción, de tu país no lo puedes evitar... Extranjera Se fue de su pueblo un día hace tiempo ya, pensando volver
I'm Still Not Through Missing You Composer(s): Larry Stock; Mann Curtis Performer(s): Andy Russell
I'm still not through missing you I'm still not through feeling blue I thought that time would ease the ache Make it easier to take But each day it starts anew That yearning, burning, need for you I said goodbye with a smile And now, I cry all the while I go to sleep, you're on my mind When I wake, I wake to find I'm still not through missing you
Extrañame Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez Performer(s): Alberto Vazquez; and various other artists
Extrañame aunque maldigas mi cariño extrañame aunque no entiendas mi destino que me vas a recordar por siempre y para siempre no me podrás olvidar me tienes que adorar eternamente
Extrañame cuando te ofrezcan una copa extrañame cuando te besen en la boca cuando te digan como yo las cosas más bonitas de la vida cuando te sientas muy feliz con ansias de vivir extrañame
I'm Still Here Composer(s): Tom Waits; Kathleen Brennan Performer(s): Tom Waits
You haven't looked at me that way in years You dreamed me up and left me here How long was I dreaming for What was it you wanted me for
You haven't looked at me that way in years Your watch has stopped and the pond is clear Someone turn the lights back off I'll love you til all time is gone
You haven't looked at me that way in years But I'm still here
Extra, Extra Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Puedo escribir con rouge te amo en el espejo puedo romper el diario de hoy nos dicen que el futuro es de nuestros hijos entonces vos y yo, que hacemos vos y yo Puedo sentir tu mano en mi broche los Sex Pistols tocan gratis esta noche puedo acabar con el machismo argentino ya lo vas a ver, ya lo vas a ver
Extra, extra no puedo verte mal nada es real, todo es ficción viviendo con la cola entre las piernas en el callejón Extra, extra no puedo verte mal seguridad para crear y no tengo dinero para un mísero café en la popular
Tengo un pase, puedo invitarte a Obras en este tiempo nos han echo olvidar que en este país se puede ser feliz puedo pedirle una limosna al presidente puedo morirme de hambre con la gente darte asilo en mi propio baño puedo darte más, quiero darte más
Extra, extra no puedo verte mal nada es real, todo es ficción viviendo con la cola entre las piernas en el callejón Extra, extra no puedo verte mal seguridad para crear y no tengo dinero para un mísero café en la popular
I'm Sticking With You Composer(s): Lou Reed First recording/First release by: The Velvet Underground - 1969/1985 Covered by multiple other artists
I'm sticking with you 'Cos I'm made out of glue Anything that you might do I'm gonna do too
You held up a stage coach in the rain And I'm doing the same Saw you're hanging from a tree And I made believe it was me
I'm sticking with you 'Cos I'm made out of glue Anything that you might do I'm gonna do too
Some people go into the stratosphere Soldiers fighting with the Cong
But with you by my side I can do anything When we swing We hang past right or wrong
I'll do anything for you Anything you want me too I'll do anything for you Oohoh I'm sticking with you Oohoh I'm sticking with you Oohoh I'm sticking with you

(I'm Sorry) I'll Be Busy All Next Week
Composer(s): John Gilroy; Harry Linton
An ebony tinted maid of affectation is loved by a gent of tawny hue
She gave to him a standing invitation, saying "Call and I'll be always in for you"
After she had spent most of his money, he said
"Don't leave me in this world alone, could I call to see you once next week, my honey?"
This excuse she offered in regretful tone
He easily hid from her occupation, till into jail they threw this maiden dear
For counterfeit coins of this great nation, as the money that she took from him was queer
She was tried in court by judge and jury, she thought the tawny gent would come to speak
But he sent this note that drove her in a fury
"Goodbye, my gal, I'm busy all next week"
Monday I'll be busy all the day
Tuesday I'm going far away
Wednesday is the day that I study my French
Thursday is for music you would in trench
Friday I must paint a little bit
Saturday in the dentist's chair I'll sit
Sunday is for church, salvation I must seek
I'm sorry, I'll be busy all next week

Acudo a tu templo de carne como quien va a misa dispuesto a oficiar la ceremonia de la Consagración Y me acerco a tu altar de transubstanciaciones divino alimento humano donde bebo tu sangre cual vampiro donde como tu cuerpo cuál gusano practicando, en un éxtasis de ángeles caídos la comunión original

Experiment IV Composer(s): Kate Bush Performer(s): Kate Bush
We were working secretly for the military Our experiment in sound was nearly ready to begin We only know in theory what we are doing Music made for pleasure, music made to thrill It was music we were making here until...
* They told us all they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone from a distance So we go ahead And the meters are over in the red It's a mistake in the making
From the painful cries of mothers To the terrifying screams We recorded it And put it into our machine, but...
Repeat *
It could feel like falling in love It could feel so bad But it could feel so good It could sing you to sleep But that dream is your enemy
We won't be there to be blamed We won't be there to snitch I just pray that someone there Can hit the switch, but...

Men: Because we fellows like Nanette
Nanette: Oh, did I hear my name?
Men: Please let her go
Tommy: Please let her go
Women: No, no, Nanette
Chorus: No, no, no, no!
Nanette: No, no, Nanette that's all I hear! I get it the whole day through No, no, Nanette regales my ear no matter what I may do Sometime, perhaps I'll have my way when I am old and turning grey But just as yet it's always no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Nanette!
Experiment Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Gertrude Lawrence; and various other artists
Before you leave these portals To meet less fortunate mortals There's just one final message I would give to you You all have learned reliance On the sacred teachings of science So I hope, through life you never will decline In spite of philistine Defiance To do what all good scientists do
Experiment Make it your motto day and night Experiment And it will lead you to the light The apple on the top of the tree Is never too high to achieve So take an example from Eve Experiment Be curious Though interfering friends may frown, Get furious Aat each attempt to hold you down If this advice you'll only employ The future can offer you infinite joy And merriment Experiment And you'll see
I'm Sorry Composer(s): John Denver First release by: John Denver - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists
Its cold here in the city It always seems that way And Ive been thinking about you almost everyday Thinking about the good times Thinking about the rain Thinking about how bad it feels alone again
Im sorry for the way things are in China Im sorry things aint what they used to be But more than anything else Im sorry for myself 'Cause youre not here with me
Our friends ask all about you I say youre doing fine And I expect to hear from you almost anytime But they all know Im crying I cant sleep at night They all know Im dying down deep inside
Im sorry for all the lies I told you Im sorry for the things I didnt say But more than anything else Im sorry for myself I cant believe you went away
Im sorry if I took some things for granted Im sorry for the chains I put on you But more than anything else Im sorry for myself For living without you
Viajamos entre la tormenta después de la explosión de Dios Cada relámpago nos muestra fantasmagóricos de amor A cada paso se hunde el lodo salta un reptil, acechan diez Cada segundo es como el cobro de lo que resultamos ser
A bordo de esta expedición va un loco, un albañil un nigromante, un ruiseñor y un beso espadachín Nos falta un día, un niño, un don para sobrevivir
Primero fuimos los heraldos llevando buenas del Señor pero excedimos su mandato cargando el peso del dolor Hoy somos ángeles caídos junto al que fuimos a curar Temen que a nuestros propios hijos les enseñemos a volar
A bordo de esta expedición va un loco, un albañil un nigromante, un ruiseñor y un beso espadachín Nos falta un día, un niño, un don para sobrevivir
