Scusami Composer(s): O. Ferrari; G. Malgoni; A. Perrone Performer(s): Dalida; Raymond Lefevre & His Orch.
Oublie ta peine dans mes bras puisqu'elle te vient de moi Un peu d'amour l'effacera Scusami, scusami encore Mon seul bonheur est fait de toi et tu le sais déjà Mais si j'ai fait pleurer ta joie Scusami pardonne-moi
Parle-moi j'ai besoin d'écouter ta voix Si tu savais ce que j'ai de regret
Oublie les jours oublie les heures Et vient m'ouvrir ton cur Puisque aujourd'hui l'amour là Scusami pardonne-moi
Je donnerai le monde Pour voir tes yeux sourire une seconde Et pour que tu répondes à ma prière Je donnerai le ciel et sa lumière
Oublie ta peine dans mes bras puisqu' elle te vient de moi Un peu d'amour l'effacera Scusami, scusami encore Mon seul bonheur est fait de toi et tu le sais déjà Mais si j'ai fait pleurer ta joie Scusami pardonne-moi
Parle-moi j'ai besoin d'écouter ta voix Le ciel est bleu au soleil de tes yeux
Oublie ta peine dans mes mains n'attendons pas demain Puisque aujourd'hui l'amour est là Scusami pardonne-moi Scusami pardonne-moi

Screw You, We're From Texas Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
I got on my cowboy boots, jeans And Hawaiian shirt, mirrored sunglasses And a mobile phone I guess I look like some Port Aransas Dope dealer that's out on bail Just trying to get home Well I ain't in jail and I got me a guitar Got a little band that's hotter than a rocket Sometimes we're sloppy We're always loud, tonight we're just ornery And locked in the pocket
So screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas baby, so screw you
Now I love the USA And the other states Ahh, they're OK Texas is the place I wanna be And I don't care if I ever go to Delaware anyway Cause we got Stubbs, and Gruene Hall and Antone's, and John T's Country Store We've got Willie and Jacky Jack, Robert Earl, Pat, Cory, Charlie and me And so many more
So screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas, screw you
Sing it with me Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas, screw you!
Now Texas has gotten a bad reputation Because of what happened in Dallas and Waco And our corporations well they are corrupt And the politicians are swindlers and loco But when it comes to music my friend I believe these words are as true as St. John the Revelator's Our Mr. Vaughan was the best that there ever was And no band was cooler than the 13th Floor Elevators
So screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas, screw you!
Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas Screw you
Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas Screw you, we're from Texas We're from Texas Screw you
Santa Claus (I Still Believe In You) Composer(s): Greg Fowler; Linda Gentry; Teddy Gentry; John Jarrard; Randy Owen Performer(s): Alabama
You always come around this time of year With your big ol' bag that's full of Christmas cheer And when it starts to snow the little boys and girls all know Soon they'll hear the sounds of your reindeer
Now sometimes grownups grow up to believe That you don't really come on Christmas Eve But I don't think that's true 'cause I know I've seen you In sparking little eyes around the tree
Oh Santa Claus, I still believe in you There's still a kid inside of me that still believes you're true Oh Santa Claus, the kids are tucked in tight The hour has arrived, it's time to play ol' Santa Clause tonight
Well I don't see how anybody could ever doubt that there really is a Santa Clause Especially if they've ever seen a little boy who's just got his very first bike Or if they've ever seen a little girl with her arms wrapped around her baby doll so tight And both of 'em waking up Mama and Daddy way before daylight And Grandma and Grandpa just lookin' young and lovin' life 'Cause they know that their grandkids gonna be alright And Mama and Daddy, they'll be waitin' up to answer ol' Santa's call 'Cause tonight they're not worried about payin' bills Lord, they're just lovin' it all!
Oh Santa Claus, I still believe in you There's still a kid in all of us that still believes you're true Oh Santa Claus, the kids are sleepin' tight We're turnin' out the lights and I'll be waiting up for you tonight
Oh Santa Claus, the kids are tucked in tight Santa Claus, turnin' out the lights Oh Santa Claus, ummmmmmmmmmmm I still believe in you

Je vends des pommes, des poires Et des scoubidoubi-ou ah ... Pommes?... (pommes) Poires?... (poires) Et des Scoubidoubi-ou Ah Scoubidoubi-ou
On a dansé toute la nuit Puis au jour, on est partis Chez moi... discuter de l'amour De l'amour... et des fruits...

Santa Can't Stay Composer(s): Dwight Yoakam Performer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Cold tears fall from his eyes As he turns into the night and walks away Lucille runs outside Just to see if there might be a sleigh Little Bobby stares down At the plate where cookies still lay And tries to understand Why momma said Santa can't stay
Momma said Santa can't stay Said she told him that twice yesterday Then a car just like Dad's Pulled out and drove away After momma said Santa couldn't stay
They both heard him coming Saw Mom run down the hall and holler wait Doug you're drunk don't come inside I'm not joking I've had all this I can take He threw a present really hard That almost hit Mom's new boyfriend Ray And yelled ho-ho lucky for you she's here And said that Santa can't stay
Momma said Santa can't stay Said she told him that twice yesterday Then a car just like Dad's Pulled out and drove away After momma said Santa couldn't stay

Am rond-point sprach ein mann mich an Als ich mein Büro verliess Und fragt ob ich ihm sagen kann Was isst man in Paris
Am liebsten Äpfel und Birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a Äpfel Äpfel birnen birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a scoubidoubidou
Der Vorschlag schien ihm originell Und hat ihn so interessiert Dass er mich darauf ganz formell Am abend ausgeführt
In einem netten restaurant Hat er mein menü erprobt Das er ganz ausgezeichnet fand Und nun begeistert lobt
Wie schön sind Äpfel und Birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a Äpfel Äpfel Birnen Birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a scoubidoubidou
Und weil es ihm so herrlich schmeckt Macht er täglich diese kur Bis er dann voller schreck entdeckt Es schadet der figur
Es sei ja ab und zu ganz schön Wenn man süss früchte hat Doch müsse er mir eingestehn Auch früchte machen satt
Nicht immer Äpfel und Birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a Äpfel Äpfel Birnen Birnen Und dann scoubidoubidou-a Scoubidoubidou-a, scoubidoubidou-a Scoubidoubidou - aha

Paris Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
J'adore le ciel de Paris J'adore cette fille de bandit Qui se balade en guêpière Quand je retourne en enfer
Mon capital de bas noirs Tu changes de fille tous les soirs Et dans les bulles de cristal Me balances les fleurs du mal
Tu me manques terriblement Tu me manques passionnément Tu me manques, c'est fascinant Paris, t'es si belle encore Paris, tu changes de décor Paris, tu ressembles à personne
Ma capitale de douleur Vienne la nuit, sonne l'heure Un rouge baiser, un miroir Tout redevient provisoire
Paris, t'as des yeux gris-bleus T'es plutôt brune à mes yeux Entre Desnos et Prévert Tu choisis Apollinaire
Tu me manques terriblement Tu me manques passionnément Tu me manques, c'est fascinant Paris, t'es si belle encore Paris, tu changes de décor Paris, tu ressembles à personne
Je t'aime, ma fille de faubourg Avec tes chansons d'amour Je t'aime, vipère du trottoir Plumant le micheton dans le noir
Mon ange exterminateur T'es dure avec le malheur Tu fais de cadeaux à personne Et là, Paris, tu déconnes
Tu me manques terriblement Tu me manques passionnément Tu me manques, c'est fascinant Paris, t'es si belle encore Paris, tu changes de décor Paris, tu ressembles à personne
Paris, j'veux pas qu'on t'épouse Reste infidèle et jalouse Paris, tu ressembles à personne

Scorn Not His Simplicity Composer(s): Phil Coulter; Bill Martin Performer(s): Phil Coulter and multiple other artists
See the child With the golden hair Yet eyes that show the emptiness inside Do we know Can we understand just how he feels Or have we really tried
See him now As he stands alone And watches children play a children's game Simple child He looks almost like the others Yet they know he's not the same
Scorn not his simplicity But rather try to love him all the more Scorn not his simplicity Oh no Oh no
See him stare Not recognizing the kind face That only yesterday he loved The loving face Of a mother who can't understand what she's been guilty of
How she cried, tears of happiness the day the doctor told her it's a boy Now she cries tears of helplessness and thinks of all the things he can't enjoy
Scorn not his simplicity But rather try to love him all the more Scorn not his simplicity Oh no Oh no
Only he knows how to face the future hopefully Surrounded by despair He won't ask for your pity or your sympathy But surely you should care
Scorn not his simplicity But rather try to love him all the more Scorn not his simplicity Oh no Oh no Oh no
Santa And The Doodle-Li-Boop Composer(s): Alan Abel Performer(s): Art Carney
Once upon a time there was a little boy named Tommy one day he wrote a letter to Santa Claus up in the North Pole and said:"Dear Santa I've been a good little boy all year so I am writing you now to say
All I want for Christmas is a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop All I want for Christmas is a Doodle-li-Boop, Doop billy-bee-ala, Doodle-li-Boop"
When Santa read the letter he was very much surprised because he hadn't had anyone asking for a Doodle-li-Boop in a long time It was the day before Christmas, so he went to the toy factory and went looking for a Doodle-li-Boop, he looked high and he looked low but there was no single Doodle-li-Boop in sight Santa went through the toy factory singing
"Has anybody seen a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop? Has anybody seen a Doodle-li-Boop, Doop billy-bee-ala, Doodle-li-Boop?"
When none of his helpers know where there might be a Doodle-li-Boop in sight so Santa went home slowly and sadly, singing
"Oh, where, oh where is a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop? Oh, where, oh where is a Doodle-li-Boop, Doop billy-bee-ala, Doodle-li-Boop?"
When Santa came home, Mrs. Santa Claus opened the door and said to him "Santa you look so tired and unhappy What's wrong?"
Santa said "Little Tommy asked for a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop Little Tommy asked for a Doodle-li-Boop, Doop billy-bee-ala, Doodle-li-Boop"
"But there's none in sight anywhere and it's almost time for delivering my Christmas toys" Why don't you look into the closet? Said Mrs. Santa Claus With a start Santa jumped up and ran over to the closet, opened the door and out came hundreds of Doodle-li-Boops picking one up and putting it quickly in his bag Santa went on his way to deliver his Christmas toys, singing
"Little Tommy is gonna get a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop Little Tommy is gonna get a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop, a Doodle-li-Boop

Scissor Man Composer(s): Andy Partridge First release by: XTC - 1979 Covered by: Primus - 1998
Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man Putting end to evil doers games Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man Maybe you are in his book of names Maybe you are in his book of names
So be kind and helpful to your mother Just think twice before you try and steal When he cuts with sticky silver snippers You may find the wounds will never heal
All self made bad boys If you refuse to believe he exist You won't be frightened when you find out You're on his list You're on his list You're on his list
So be good and never poison people Just think twice before the deed is done When you wake up guilty in the morning You may find important pieces gone
