Scatterbrain 
Composer(s): Khan Keene; Carl Bean; Frankie Masters; Johnny Burke
Performer(s): Frankie Masters
and multiple other artists



Everyone who sees you says, fascinating face
Heavens, what a figure and, goodness me, what grace
Everyone who meets you must lose his heart, I find
Then he's sure to lose his mind

You're as pleasant as the morning
And refreshing as the rain
Isn't it a pity that you're such a scatterbrain
When you smile it's so delightful
When you talk it's so insane
Still it's charming chatter, scatterbrain

I know I'll end up apoplectic
But there's nothing I can do
It's just the same as being in a hurricane
And though my life will be too hectic
I'm so much in love with you
Nothing else can matter
You're my darling scatterbrain

You're as gay as New Year parties
You're as sweet as sugarcane
But when you get serious, you're such a scatterbrain
When we dance I think it's heaven
Till about the third refrain
Then you start your patter, scatterbrain

Perhaps I'm much too analytic
But I'm up the well-known tree
I've tried to understand your double-talk in vain
Yet, won't you please forgive your critic
'Cause you mean so much to me
Nothing else can matter
You're my darling scatterbrain

Pretty Snow Flakes
Composer(s): Luigi Creatore; Hugo Peretti; David Plattner
Performer(s): Patti Page


It's winter, it's winter the snow fell last night
It fell on the tree tops and painted them white
The children are playing their faces are bright
Oh what a wonderful sight

Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
How I wonder where you come from as you flutter by
Did winter's magic hand send you down to bless the land

Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye

The pond by the old mill is covered with ice
The fires are glowing and everything's nice
The whole world is smiling and bundled up tight
Oh what a wonderful sight

Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
How I wonder where you come from as you flutter by
Did winter's magic hand send you down to bless the land

Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
Pretty snow flakes 
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye

Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye

She's Gonna Win Your Heart
Composer(s): Billy Burnette; Hank Williams
Performer(s): Eddy Raven



I know just how you feel
When you see my baby dance across the floor
And I know you'd like to steal her love
I know I've been there before

I can see the way she's lookin' at you
I'm runnin' out of time
I used to feel the same way too
When I was tryin' to make her mine

She's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart

She can be so very nice
Melt you down like ice
With all her charms
Pick you up to paradise
I've been there once or twice in her arms

When my baby's running free
Takes a stronger man than me
To hold her down
Maybe you've got what she needs
So it's your turn to try and stop her runnin' round

She's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart

If I thought the time was right
I would try with all my might
To make her stay
But I won't put up a fight
'Cause I know she don't love me anyway

And I know ...

And I know she's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart

Yes I know she's gonna win your heart
She knows just what to say

She knew right from the start
How to play her part

Scary Voices
Composer(s): Andy Summers
Performer(s): Andy Summers



I have tried
to succeed
everything I do
is scaring me
To possess
to have won
everything that's
underneath the sun
Scary voices
echo
in my head
I can see
I am blind
everyone I love
I leave behind
Hold on and take control
hold on and save your soul
be sure before you rise
hold on it's in your eyes
I have tried
to succeed
everything I do
is scaring me

Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)
Composer(s): David Bowie
First release by: David Bowie - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



She had an horror of rooms
she was tired
you can't hide beat
When I looked in her eyes they were blue but nobody home

She could've been a killer
if she didn't walk the way she do
and she do
She opened strange doors
that we'd never close again

She began to wail jealousies scream
Waiting at the light know what I mean

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

She asked me to stay
and I stole her room
She asked for my love
and I gave her a dangerous mind
Now she's stupid in the street
and she can't socialise
Well I love the little girl
and I'll love her till the day she dies

She wails
Jimmy's guitar sound
jealousies scream
Waiting at the light know what I mean

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

Scary monsters, super creeps
Keep me running, running scared

Run, Run, Run [ad lib]

Please Daddy (Don't Get Drunk This Christmas)
Composer(s): Bill Danoff; Taffy Nivert
Performer(s): John Denver; Alan Jackson; Redneck Party Band



Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry
Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry

Just last year when I was only seven
And now I’m almost eight as you can see
You came home at a quarter past eleven
Fell down underneath our Christmas tree

Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry
Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry

Mumma smiled and looked outside the window
She told me son, you better go upstairs
Then you laughed and hollered Merry Christmas
I turned around and saw my Mumma’s tears

Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry
Please Daddy, don’t get drunk this Christmas
I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry
No, I don’t wanna see my Mumma cry

Scarlet Ribbons (For Her Hair)
Composer(s): Evelyn Danzig; Jack Segal
First release by: Juanita Hall - 1949
Covered by multiple other artists



I peeped in to say Goodnight
and then I heard my child in prayer
And for me, some scarlet ribbons
scarlet ribbons for my hair

All the stores were locked and shuttered
All the streets were dark and bare
In our town no scarlet ribbons
not one ribbon for her hair

Through the night my heart was aching
Just before the dawn was breaking
I peeped in and on her bed
in gay profusion lying there

Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair

If I live to be two hundred
I will never know from where
came those lovely scarlet ribbons
scarlet ribbons for her hair!

Bells will be ringing the glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas to end the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me greetings, ooh, once again

Choirs will be singing Silent Night
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas, by New Year's night

Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
This is Christmas, yeah, Christmas my dear 
The time of year to be with the one you love 

So won't you tell me you'll never more roam 
Christmas and New Years will find you home
Please come home for Christmas 
Please come home for Christmas 
If not for Christmas by New Year's night 

There'll be no more sorrow no grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy once again

Pine Cones And Holly Berries
Composer(s): Meredith Willson
Performer(s): Hank Jones; The Osmonds



Pine cones and Holly Berries
Popcorn for you, apples for me
Red striped candy, nut cracker handy
Kettle a-bubbleing hot as can be
Snow clouds hang low and threatening
Maybe it won't, praying it may
The brightest fireplace glows in every face
Waiting for Christmas day

There'll be walk-a-round songs 
And talk-a-round songs
Songs of the inn and stable
There'll be morning time songs 
And evening time songs
And grace at every table
And Jingle bells will jingle all the way all day

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart

Scarecrow's Dream
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
First release by: Dan Fogelberg - 1977



Seldom seen
A scarecrow's dream
I hang in the hopes of replacement
Castles tall
I built them all
But I dream that I'm trapped in the basement

And if you ever hear me calling out
And if you've been by paupers crowned
Between the worlds of men and make-believe
I can be found

Plans I've made
A masquerade
Fading in fear of the coming day
Heroes' tales
Like nightingales
Wrestle the wind as they run away

And if you ever hear them calling out
And if you've been by paupers crowned
Between the worlds of men and make-believe
I can be found

Garden gate
An empty plate
Waiting for someone to come and fill
Scarecrow's dreams
Like frozen streams
Thirst for the fall
But they're running still

And if you ever hear me calling out
And if you've been by paupers crowned
Between the worlds of men and make-believe
I can be found

Petite Étoile De Noël
Composer(s): Raymond Legrand; J. Daniel Norman; G. Diamant
Performer(s): Tino Rossi



Au pas lent de leurs chevaux
Qui sont chargés de cadeaux
Quittant leurs palais et les rois mages
Vont dans un tout petit village
Perdu dans la nuit bleue
Qui leur a dit? 
Qui les conduit?
En cette nuit

Petite étoile de Noël
Tu luis d'un éclat surnaturel
Eclairant la petite étable
Où l'enfant Dieu est né pour nous
Petite étoile de Noël
Montre-nous dans le bleu du ciel
L'humble toit, la petite étable
Où l'enfant Roi est venu jusqu'à nous
Marie au regard si doux
Et les bergers à genoux
Le regardent sourire aux anges
Le gros bœuf taché de roux
L'agneau blanc, l'âne debout
Nous attendent au rendez-vous
Entend dans la nuit de Noël
Jésus ton grand amour éternel
Et suivons la petite étoile
Petite étoile de Noël

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt

(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no seams nor needlework
(Blankets and bedclothes a child of the mountains)
Then she'll be a true love of mine
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Tell her to find me an acre of land

(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, & thyme
(Washed is the ground with so many tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strand
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
Then she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather

(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)
Then she'll be a true love of mine

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Petit Pasqua Noël
Composer(s): Martiney; Girardot
Performer(s): Chanson Plus Bifluorée



C'est la belle nuit de Noël
Dans le fourgon, c'est l'allégresse
Les casques pointés vers le ciel
Emus les petits CRS
Avant de fermer leurs visières
Font une dernière prière

Petit Pasqua Noël
Quand tu descendras du ciel
Avec des matraques dorées
N'oublie pas ton traîneau blindé
Car avant de partir
Il faudra bien te couvrir
Les gens sont si durs
Avec toi
Oh mon pauvre petit Pasqua

Il me tarde tant que le jour se lève
Pour voir si nous pouvons charger
Et puis matraquer tous ces jeunes en grève
Que nous t'avions commandés

Petit Pasqua Noël
Quand tu descendras du ciel
Avec des matraques dorées
N'oublie pas ton traîneau blindé

Se tu vai alla fiera del perdono
Giu' al paese torroni e collane
Se incontri chi e' stato il mio amore
Dille che ora non posso venire
Dille ricami su un pezzo di seta
Due gabbiani fra nuvole rosa
Ma non con filo di tanti colori
Ma con il crine dei suoi capelli
Dille che trovi un pezzo di terra
Fra gli ulivi e i ruscelli di vetro
Allora potro' tornare da lei
E la vendemmia ci trovera' insieme
La montagna ride col vento
Giu' al paese torroni e collane
E quando grido il tuo nome di neve
Fugge un cerbiatto lungo il sentiero
Se tu vai alla fiera del perdono
Giu' al paese torroni e collane
Se incontri chi e' stato il mio amore
Dille che ora non posso venire

Petit Papa Noël
(Dutch Version: O Zoete Lieve Heer- 1978)
Composer(s): Raymond Vincy; Henri Martinet; John Boylan
Performer(s): Tino Rossi - 1946



C'est la belle nuit de Noël
La neige étend son manteau blanc
Et les yeux levés vers le ciel
À genoux, les petits enfants
Avant de fermer les paupières
Font une dernière prière

Petit Papa Noël
Quand tu descendras du ciel
Avec des jouets par milliers
N'oublie pas mon petit soulier
Mais avant de partir
Il faudra bien te couvrir
Dehors tu dois avoir si froid
C'est un peu à cause de moi

Il me tarde tant que le jour se lève
Pour voir si tu m'as apporté
Tous les beaux joujoux que je vois en rêves
Et que je t'ai commandés

Petit Papa Noël
When you sail down from the sky
Bringing toys, so shiny and so bright
Please don't pass my little stocking by
Before you leave your home
Wear your bright red coat so warm
Understand it still a winter night
How I'd wait you see my candlelight

Petit Papa Noël 
Quand tu descendras du ciel 
Apportant des jouets, si brillants et si éclatants 
S'il-te-plaît, ne passes pas à côté de mon petit bas 
Avant de partir de chez-toi 
Mets ton manteau rouge vif si chaud 
Comprends que c'est une autre nuit d'hiver 
J'attendrai tellement que tu vois la lumière de ma chandelle

I can't hardly sleep
Cause my heart is singing
Listening to a new Christmas song
I can't wait to see
What the morning's bringing
Oh I can't wait so long

J'ai de la difficulté à m'endormir 
Parce que mon coeur chante 
En écoutant une nouvelle chanson de Noël 
Je ne peux attendre pour voir 
Ce que le matin apporte 
Oh je ne peux attendre si longtemps

Petit Papa Noël
Quand tu descendras du ciel
Avec des jouets par milliers
N'oublies pas mon petit soulier

First release by: Shirley Collins - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists



Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
For once she was a true love of mine
Have her make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without a seam or fine needle work
And then she'll be a true love of mine
Have her wash it in yonder dry well
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Where ne'er a drop of water e'er fell
And then she'll be a true love of mine
Have her find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the sea and over the sand
And then she'll be a true love of mine
Plow the land with the horn of a lamb
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Then sow some seeds from north of the dam
And then she'll be a true love of mine
If she tells me she can't, I'll reply
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Let me know that at least she will try
And then she'll be a true love of mine
Love imposes impossible tasks
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Though not more than any heart asks
And I must know she's a true love of mine
Dear, when thou has finished thy task
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Come to me, my hand for to ask
For thou then art a true love of mine

Dans son manteau rouge et blanc
Sur un traîneau porté par le vent
Il descendra par la cheminée
Petit garçon, il est l'heure d'aller se coucher

Tes yeux se voilent
Ecoute les étoiles
Tout est calme, reposé
Entends-tu les clochettes tintinnabuler?

Et demain matin petit garçon
Tu trouveras dans tes chaussons
Tous les jouets dont tu as rêvé

Percy The Puny Pointsettia
Hanging his gloom in dismay
If they had just kept him wetta
He'd be a houseplant today
Homes like the other pointsettias
Now he's alone on the shelf
Even a plant with no uncles or aunts
Shouldn't spend Christmas day by himself!!

Holiday shoppers who stop at the counter
And picked out a plant to take home
One at a time all of his friends
Where adopted til'
Percy was left all alone!

Percy the Puny Pointsettia
Hanging his gloom in dismay
If they had just kept him wetta
He'd be a housplant today
Homes like the other pointsettias
Now he's alone on the shelf
Even a houseplant with no uncles or aunts
Shouldn't spend Christmas day by himself!!

Then into the shop on the day before Christmas
Came a poor little girl who was crying
But when she saw Percy
Her eyes opened wide and she said
"Can I please make him mine?"

Now Percy The Puny Pointsettia
Is standing beside Mr. Tree
His leaves have never been redda
He's as proud as a flower can be
Somebody made him feel betta
Rescued him off the shelf

Even a plant with no uncles or aunts
Should spend Christmas day by himself!!
Even a plant with no uncles or aunts
Should spend Christmas day by himself!!
