See-Saw Composer(s): Richard Wright Performer(s): Pink Floyd
Marigolds are very much in love, but he doesn't mind Picking up his sister, he makes his way into the seas or land All the way she smiles She goes up while he goes down, down Sits on a stick in the river Laughter in his sleep Sister's throwing stones, hoping for a hit He doesn't know so then She goes up while he goes down, down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day
She'll be selling plastic flowers on a sunday afternoon
Picking up weeds, she hasn't got the time to care All can see he's not there She grows up for another man, and he's down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day Another time, another day A brother's way to leave
Qualquer Amor Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime
Qualquer amor Me satisfaz Qualquer calor Qualquer rapaz Qualquer favor É só chamar Pousar a mão Qualquer lugar Qualquer verão É só chamar É tudo, é do primeiro Qualquer hora, qualquer cheiro Qualquer boca, qualquer peito Qualquer jeito de prazer Qualquer prazer é pouco Qualquer éter, qualquer louco Que o meu corpo de criança Não se cansa de querer
Qualquer amor Eu corro atrás Qualquer calor Eu quero mais Qualquer amor Qual nada
Seems Like Old Times Composer(s): Carmen Lombardo; John Jacob Loeb First release by: Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians - 1945 and multiple other artists
Remember all the things we did together All the fun we had on New Year's Eve How we danced till dawn Then darling you were gone Now it's almost too good to believe
Seems like old times, having you to walk with It seems like old times, having you to talk with And it's still a thrill just to have my arms around you Its still the thrill that it was the day I found you Its just like old times, dinner dates and flowers Its just like old times, staying up for hours Making dreams come true, doing things we used to do It seems like old times, being here with you
Seems like old times, dinner dates and flowers Seems like old times, staying up for hours Making dreams come true, and doing things we used to do It seems like old times, being here with you

Esse papo já tá qualquer coisa Você já tá prá lá de Marraquesh
Mexe qualquer coisa dentro doida Já qualquer coisa doida dentro mexe
Não se avexe não, baião de dois, deixe de manha, deixe de manha Pois sem essa aranha, sem essa aranha, sem essa aranha Nem a sanha arranha o carro, nem o sarro arranha a Espanha Nessa tamanha, nessa tamanha, esse papo seu já tá de manhã
Berro pelo aterro, pelo desterro Berro por seu berro, pelo seu erro Quero que você ganhe, que você me apanhe Sou o seu bezerro gritando mamãe
Esse papo seu tá qualquer coisa E você tá prá lá de Teerã Qualquer coisa...

Quand Elle Chante Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Gaby Wagenheim Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi
Ah oui! c'est vraiment la plus belle Celle dont je suis amoureux Elle n'a pas de soeur jumelle Et c'est tant pis pour vous messieurs En elle tout n'est qu'harmonie On ne peut rien lui reprocher Elle est le souffle de ma vie Pourquoi? Vous pouvez en juger
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi
Elle marche comme en un rêve Auréolée d'un arc-en-ciel Et semble perdue sur la terre Tant elle paraît irréelle Je l'aime tant je peux le dire Que prés d'elle je ne vis plus J'ai même peur quand elle respire Qu'elle ne s'envole dans la rue
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi

Quand Et Puis Pourquoi Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand avons été nous-mêmes La dernière fois? Quand nous sommes-nous dit je taime La dernière fois? Quand avons nous été sincères Sans problème, sans mystère? Quand avons-nous eu linsouciance De lenfance La dernière fois?
Quand avons-nous gâché la chance Qui soffrait à nous Et brisé lamoureuse alliance Qui vivait en nous? Alors que déjà loubli se pose Et sétend sur toutes choses Sitôt que tu en aurais saisi la cause Dis-moi quand et puis pourquoi
Quand avons-nous fait fausse route La première fois? Quand avons-nous connu le doute La première fois? Quand avons-nous cherché chez dautres Dautres ivresses que les nôtres Quand avons-nous oublié dêtre Un seul être La première fois?
Quand avons-nous cessé de rire Pour un oui, un non Et trouvé bête de se dire Que nous nous aimions? Afin que nulle ombre ne demeure En mes rêves qui se meurent Ne citant que le jour et lheure Dis-moi quand et puis pourquoi
See You In September Composer(s): Sid Wayne; Sherman Edwards; Donald Meyer First release by: The Tempos - 1959 Covered by multiple other artists
I'll be alone each and every night While you're away, don't forget to write Bye-bye, so long, farewell Bye-bye, so long

(repeat): See you (bye-bye, so long, farewell) In September (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
See What The Boys In The Backroom Will Have Composer(s): Frederick Hollander; Frank Loesser Performer(s): Marlene Dietrich and multiple other artists
See what the boys in the backroom will have And tell them I'm having the same Go see what the boys in the backroom will have And give them the poison they name
And when I die don't spend my money On flowers and my picture in a frame
Chorus: Just see what the boys in the backroom will have And tell them I sighed and tell them I cried And tell them I died of the same
And when I die don't buy a casket of silver With the candles all aflame
Just see what the boys in the backroom will have And tell them I sighed and tell them I cried And tell them I died of the same
And when I die don't pay the preacher For speaking of my glory and my fame
Just see what the boys in the backroom will have And tell them I sighed and tell them I cried And tell them I died of the same
Quand Il S'Agit De Toi Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Je ne me suis jamais acharné À visiter tous les musées Monuments et lieux historiques Einstein et sa relativité N'a rien gravé dans mes pensées Je ne retiens rien, c'est tragique Mais J'ai retenu du premier coup Ton prénom et ta date de naissance J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Je n'ai pas eu besoin que tu me donnes Deux fois ton numéro de téléphone J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi
Je sens encore le parfum de tes lèvres Qui m'a donné une poussée de fièvre J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Tu m'as mordu par passion ou par vice J'en ai depuis gardé la cicatrice J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi
Ce premier jour où l'on s'est rencontré Je m'en souviens très bien Tu ne savais pas sur quel pied danser Alors t'as dansé sur les miens Et ce soir là j'ai trempé dans l'eau froide Mes pauvres pieds qu'étaient en marmelade J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Le lendemain c'est le pied je le jure Qu'on m'a plâtré avec double fracture J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi
Je ne sais si c'est Victor Hugo Qu'a fait le Cid ou Othello J'étais pas né à cette époque Et je sais si c'est Galilée Qu'a dit: "Eurêka, j'ai trouvé Le secret de l'oeuf à la coque" Je n'oublie jamais ton anniversaire T'as eu un chèque en blanc l'année dernière J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Tu t'es acheté un diamant splendide Et depuis lors mon compte en banque est vide J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi
T'as des secrets culinaires incroyables Qui font qu'après avoir quitté la table J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Je te souris sauvant les apparences Cachant ainsi mes affreuses souffrances J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Je connais le nom de tous mes amis Avec les quels tu m'as trompé J'en connais l'heure, le jour ou la nuit Et l'endroit où ça s'est passé
Je t'ai surprise un soir ce fut tragique On m'a placé en maison psychiatrique J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi On a tout fait pour qu'enfin je te chasse De mes pensées mais quoi qu'on dise ou fasse J'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi Je sais que tu es un rêve impossible Et que nos humeur sont incompatibles Mais Tu es mon livre de lois et ma bible Crois-moi Et j'ai de la mémoire quand il s'agit de toi
Do It The Hard Way
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart
Performer(s): Jack Durant & June Havoc
and multiple other artists
Fred Astaire once worked so hard he often lost his breath And now he taps all other chaps to death Working hard did not retard the young Cab Calloway Now hear him blow his vo-de-o-do today
Do it the hard way and it's easy sailing Do it the hard way and it's hard to lose Only the soft way has a chance of failing You have to choose
I took the hard way when I tried to get you You took the soft way when you said, "We'll see" Darling, now I'll let you do it the hard way Now that you want me
Do it the hard way and it's easy sailing Do it the hard way and it's hard to lose Only the soft way has a chance of failing You have to choose

Quand Je Chanterai Une Chanson D'Amour Composer(s): Claude François; Vline Buggy; Sklerov; Molinary Performer(s): Claude François
Il faut que tu comprennes J'aurais tellement voulu rester C'est dur pour moi aussi Mais l'amour doit pas m'arrêter Car vois-tu je ne suis pas Un amoureux mais un chanteur Et demain il faut que je sois ailleurs
Je sais que je me trompe Et c'est vraiment plus fort que moi Et je vais regretter toute ma vie de t'avoir quittée Jamais je ne retrouverai un bonheur comme celui-là Mais aussi loin que le temps m'emportera
{Refrain:} Quand je chanterai une chanson d'amour Je la chanterai pour toi Quand j'écrirai une chanson d'amour Elle ne parlera que de toi Des milliers de curs vont m'entendre Dans tant de villes et tant de fois Et des milliers d'yeux vont me voir Mais ils ne verront que toi
N'écoutes pas les gens qui te parleront de moi De ce malheureux fou qui aime la musique plus que toi Je ne supporterai pas même si tu ne m'aimes plus Que tu regrettes un jour de m'avoir connu
