Saturday Gigs Composer(s): Ian Hunter Performer(s): Mott the Hoople; Ian Hunter
Sixty-nine was cheapo wine Have a good time What your sign? Float up to the Roundhouse On a Sunday afternoon
In Seventy we all agreed A King's Road flat was the place to be 'Cause Chelsea girls are the best in the world for company
In Seventy-one all the people come Bust a few seats but it's just in fun Take the Mick out of Top of the Pops We play better than they do (yeah, yeah, yeah) In Seventy-two we was born to lose We slipped down snakes into yesterday's news I was ready to quit But then we went to Croydon
Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do
The tickets for the fantasy were twelve and six a time A fairy tale on sale
Oh, Seventy-three was a jambouree We were the dudes and the dudes were we (oh oh oh oh oh) Did you see the suits and the platform boots? (oh dear, oh boy, ...)
In Seventy-four on the Broadway tour We didn't much like dressing up no more Don't wanna be hip - but thanks for a great trip
Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do But now the kids pay a couple of quid 'Cause they need it just the same It's all a game A grown-up game
But you got off on those Saturday gigs And we did, we did 'Cause you got off on those Saturday gigs And we did, we did And we got off on those Saturday gigs And you did, you did And we got off on those Saturday gigs 'Cause you did, you did
Don't you ever forget us We'll never forget you We're going to sleep now You better be good, right? (ha ha ha) See you next time [...?] So long for now
A Glorious angel from heaven came unto the Virgin Maid Strange News and tidings of great joy the humble Mary had the humble Mary had
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ came down from Heaven 'Twas for our sins and wicked ways His precious blood was given His precious blood was given
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ was put to scorn He was taken to the judgement seat and crowned with the thorn and crowned with the thorn
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ our Saviour died He was crucified upon the tree With theives on either side With theives on either side
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ died on the rood 'Twas for our sins and wicked ways Christ shed his precious blood Christ shed his precious blood
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ was wrapped in clay He was taken to a sepulchre Where never man did lay Where never man did lay
God bless your house, your children too Your cattle and your store The Lord increase you day by day And give you more and more And give you more and more
Saturation Composer(s): Ian Anderson Performer(s): Jethro Tull
They left me, leaving my house on fire, me running round got out through the window. While clinging to the skirts of fate was not my idea of fun I'll jump to it gladly The town was filled with smoke and hate Came to my senses just too late to realize that all I ever owned was borrowed I thanked them for having shown me that nothing ever really belongs to anyone
They burned my books and they broke my car and gave the dog to a man who used him for breeding They felled my trees and they tramped flowers and threw the kitten into my new pool The same things done to other men had made them run away from the city This being the case, I joined them there and breathing air spent the night with these new friends
Satisfied With You Composer(s): Dave Clark; Denis Payton Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five
I can see no reason But you're acting so strange Now put your trust in me You should try for a change And I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see Now don't be too concerned About what your friends might say Cause you're with me tonight And I'm gonna make you stay Cause I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you And you'll be satisfied with me, wait and see Yes, I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see
Mr. Mistletoe everywhere you go you put mistletoe up above Every Christmas time you will alway find Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
He comes round at Christmas season he gives us all the reason To steal a kiss from someone that we know And although youll never see him you know that it must be him 'Cause everywhere you go theres mistletoe
When youre kissed below a piece of mistletoe by someone you know remember then Somewhere a little Elf is laughing to himself Mr. Mistletoe has done it again
He comes round at Christmas season...
Just like Santa Claus we love him because happiness is all hes thinking of And thats why well find every Christmas time Mr. Mistletoe and people in love Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
Satisfied Mind Composer(s): Jack Rhodes; Joe Hayes First release by: Porter Wagoner - 1956 Covered by multiple other artists
How many times have you heard someone say If I had his money I could do things my way But little they know that it's so hard to find Once rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
Once I was winning in fortune and fame Everything I could wish for to get a start in life's game Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Money won't buy back your youth when you're old A friend when yuou're lonely or a love that's grown cold The wealthiest person is a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is over, my time has run out My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt But one things for certain, when it comes muy time I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
Satin Pillows Composer(s): Bob Tubert; Sonny James First release by: Bobby Vinton - 1965
Covered by: Sandy Posey - 1966
Satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on You've got nothing else to rely on You gave up the most precious thing in life You turned from love to be a rich man's wife The man you married is colder than all his gold You're something he bought to keep from growing old
Now you've got satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows tro cry on You've got nothing else to rely on And you've got fancy dresses and big cars Diamonds that outshine the brightest stars But diamonds can't replace the love we knew They won't keep you warm like my arms used to Now you've got satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on You've got nothing else to rely on Satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on
Morgen, Kinder, Wird's Was Geben Composer(s): Philipp von Bartsch; Carl Gottlieb Hering
Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben morgen werden wir uns freun! Welch ein Jubel, welch ein Leben wird in unsrem Hause sein! Einmal werden wir noch wach heißa, dann ist Weihnachtstag!
Wie wird dann die Stube glänzen von der großen Lichterzahl! Schöner als bei frohen Tänzen ein geputzter Kronensaal Wißt ihr noch wie vor'ges Jahr es am Heil'gen Abend war?
Wißt ihr noch mein Räderpferdchen Malchens nette Schäferin Jettchens Küche mit den Herden und dem blankgeputzten Zinn? Heinrichs bunten Harlekin mit der gelben Violin?
Welch ein schöner Tag ist morgen! Viele Freunde hoffen wir uns're lieben Elternsorgen lange, lange schon dafür o gewiß wer sie nicht ehrt ist der ganzen Lust nicht wert
Satin Green Shutters Composer(s): Chris de Burgh Performer(s): Chris de Burgh
Where your love is, put your heart, guard these moments well Where your dreams are, put your hopes, you know they will not fail you When the sun rises in the morning, you will wake up and find her yawning When the wind blows strong and cold, she'll be with you until you grow old Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do if your dreams came true? I would build a lovely house with satin green shutters, it would be lovely The most lovely house in the world... And I would sing a lovely song with you in my mind, and you in my eyes The most lovely song in the world... I would write it down on the wall, just for you, just for you And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days
When you're sad and feeling low, you're on your own with nowhere to go Make believe that she is gone, play your guitar and write a song for her Write down the words about how you cried when you woke up weeping 'Cos you thought that she had died, and you heard her breathing Through your pain and you held her close and cried all over again Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do if your dreams came true?
And inside my lovely house with satin green shutters, there would be children The most lovely children in the world... And even when skies are grey, we would be happy, for we have love The most lovely love in the world I would write it down on the wind, just for you, just for you And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days

Monster's Holiday
Composer(s): Charles Underwood
Performer(s): Bobby 'Boris' Pickett
'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the castle My monsters were having a Yuletide hassle The tree was all trimmed in ghoulish things Like werewolf fangs and vampire wings
(It was a monster's holiday) But they were up to no good (It was a monster's holiday) Didn't act like good monsters should (It was a monster's holiday) They found themselves a new play (It was a monster's holiday) They planned to rob Santa's sleigh
They were making a list and checking it twice Frankenstein wanted a shiny new trike A new chain for Yarnush A brace for Igor's back A speed shaver for Wolfman A new cape for Drac
(It was a monster's holiday) They were up to no good (It was a monster's holiday) Didn't act like good monster's should (It was a monster's holiday) They found themselves a new play (It was a monster's holiday) They planned to rob Santa's sleigh
The Mummy was to signal from the castle roof At the very first sound of a reindeer hoof As Santa slid down the chimney wall The zombies were to make off with sleigh and all
From beyond the moat there arose such a clatter I jumped to the window to see what was the matter Like a bolt of lightning it happened so quick And there in our midst stood old Saint Nick
He began to dig down deep in his sack And came up with the traction for Igor's back Drac got his cape Franky's trike made him behave Even Wolfman was happy now he can shave
(It was a monster's holiday) And all ended well (It was a monster's holiday) And Santa was really swell (It was a monster's holiday) No need to rob Santa's sleigh (It was a monster's holiday) Maybe next year he'll come back
So the children everywhere were spared the grief Of losing their presents to a monster sleigh thief Now the monsters love Santa and say they'll behave And never again rob sleighs or graves
(Repeat "it was a monster's holiday" in background with the following) Igor, what do you think of Santa now? "Arrrrrr...Santa good!" And Santa said as he drove out of sight
(Dracula accent):"Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho Merry Christmas to all And to all a good night - blaaaa!"
Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh Dashing through the snow Where is that reindeer with the red nose, blaaaa On Donner, on Blitzen, on Dancer ...

Mon beau sapin, roi des forêts
Que j'aime ta verdure!
Quand par l'hiver, bois et guérets
Sont dépouillés de leurs attraits

Mistletoe And Wine Composer(s): Jeremy Paul; Leslie Stewart; Keith Strachan Performer(s): Cliff Richard
The child is a King, the Carollers sing The old has passed, there's a new beginning Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow Fingers numb, faces aglow
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine Children singing Christian rhyme With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree A time for rejoicing in all that we see
A time for living, a time for believing A time for trusting, not deceiving Love and laughter and joy ever after Ours for the taking, just follow the master
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine Children singing Christian rhyme With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree A time for rejoicing in all that we see
A time for giving, a time for getting A time for forgiving and for forgetting Christmas is love, Christmas is peace A time for hating and fighting to cease
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine Children singing Christian rhyme With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree A time for rejoicing in all that we see
Satan's Jeweled Crown Composer(s): Edgar L. Eden Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
Now if I were a queen and a ruler of nations With diamonds and jewels profound Well, I'd rather know that I had salvation Than to know my reward Would be Satan's jewel crown
I've worm it so long but God for my Soul has reached down His love set me free He made me His own, and helped me cast off Satan's jewel crown
Oh, the life that I live so sinful and needless Drinkin' and runnin' around All the things that I do for the love of the devil I know my reward Will be Satan's jewel crown
Satan's jewel crown I've worn it so long But God for my soul has reached down His love set me free He made me His own, and helped me cast off Satan's jewel crown
