Ho lavorato tutto il giorno però quando arriva la notte, nel cielo restano sempre le stelle Nel fiume vedo galleggiare una foglia portata via dalla vita, ma so che naviga verso le stelle Sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei dare a te sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei io da te Nel fiume vedo galleggiare una foglia Portata via dalla vita, ma so che naviga verso le stelle Ho perso tutto lavorando però ritorno nella tua vita, nel cielo restano sempre le stelle Sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei dare a te sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei io da te Ho perso tutto lavorando però ritorno nella tua vita, nel cielo restano sempre le stelle Vorrei poterti dare tutto di me i giorni e tutte le notti polvere,sogni e luci di stelle Sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei dare a te sincerit , questo è il nome che vorrei io da te
Penny Serenade Composer(s): Melle Weersma; Arthur William Hallifax Performer(s): Al Bowlly; and various other artists
Once I strayed neath the window Of a lovely, lovely lady And she smiled while I softly played My penny serenade
Si si si, you can hear it for a penny Si si si, just a penny serenade
In her eyes shone the tender dawn of love And sweet surrender As for me, in my heart I played a lovers serenade
Si si si, hear my love song for a penny Si si si, just a penny serenade
In a dream so divine, she was mine No word had been spoken When I woke from my dreams, she was gone No word had been spoken
Still I pray that wherever she may be She will remember In her heart, she will always hear My penny serenade
(Si si si) Si si si (You can hear it for a penny) You can hear it for a penny (Si si si} Si si si (Just a penny serenade) Just a penny serenade Just a penny serenade
Sol De Inverno First performance by: Simone de Oliveira - 1965
Sabe deus que eu quis Contigo ser feliz Viver ao sol do teu olhar Mais terno Morto o teu desejo Vivo o meu desejo Primavera em flor Ao sol de inverno Sonhos que sonhei Onde estão Horas que vivi Quem as tem De que serve ter coração E não ter o amor de ninguém Beijos que te dei Onde estão A quem foste dar O que é meu Vale mais não ter coração Do que ter e não ter, como eu Eu em troca de nada Dei tudo na vida Bandeira vencida Rasgada no chão Sou a data esquecida A coisa perdida Que vai a leilão. Sonhos que sonhei Onde estão Horas que vivi Quem as tem De que serve ter coração E não ter o amor de ninguém Vivo de saudades, amor A vida perdeu fulgor Como o sol de inverno Não tenho calor

Penny Lane Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney Performer(s): The Beatles
Penny Lane there in a barber showing photographs Of every head he's had the pleasure to know And all the people that come and go Stop and say "Hello" On the corner is a banker with a motorcar And little children laugh at him behind his back And the banker never wears a mac In the pouring rain - very strange Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and meanwhile back In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen He likes to keep his fire engine clean It's a clean machine Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes A four of fish and finger pies in summer Meanwhile back behind the shelter in the middle of the roundabout The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray And though she feels as if she's in a play She is anyway In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim And then the fireman rushes in From the pouring rain - very strange Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and meanwhile back Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes There beneath the blue suburban skies... Penny Lane!
Since You've Asked Composer(s): Judy Collins First release by: Judy Collins - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
What I'll give you since you asked Is all my time together Take the rugged sunny days The warm and Rocky weather Take the roads that I have walked along Looking for tomorrows time Peace of mind
As my life spills into yours Changing with the hours Filling up the world with time Turning time to flowers I can show you all the songs That I never sang to one man before
We have seen a million stones lying by the water You have climbed the hills with me To the mountain shelter Taken off the days one by one Setting them to breathe in the sun
Take the lilies and the lace From the days of childhood All the willow winding paths Leading up and outward This is what I give This is what I ask you for Nothing more
Penny Arcade Composer(s): Sammy King Performer(s): Roy Orbison
A light shown in the night some way ahead Blue turned into green then it was red And stirring the night love music played the light I saw in the night was a penny arcade
Hey step up and play each machine seemed to say As I walked round and round the penny arcade Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle And youll make all those colored lights cascade And music played at the penny arcade Yes it played and it played, played all the time Roll up and spend your last dime
At first I thought it a dream that I was in Lost, lost in a sea of glass and tin But no, so dipping my hand in the back of my jeans I grabbed a handful of coins to feed the machine
Repeat chorus
Oh! (repeat chorus)
Roll up and spend your last Roll up and spend your last Roll up and spend your last dime
Absent Friends
First performance by: Ingvar Wixell - 1965
A night of spring is a lovely thing But I feel sad in this night of spring For this is the time the sloe gets bright And this is a most bewitching night And I am lonely and you are far And you can't hear what I sing
I wish I knew where you are tonight I wish you're thinking of me tonight Where are you tonight? I wish you feel how I long for you And I wish you're missing me too And I wish I knew where to go Knowing you Knowing you
We ought to walk where the cowslips grow Behind the hedge of candescent sloe And you ought to smile and look at me And I ought to kiss you tenderly But I don't know if you still are mine This lovely evening of spring
I wish I knew where you are tonight I wish you're thinking of me tonight Where are you tonight?
I wish you feel how I long for you And I wish you're missing me too And I wish I knew where to go Knowing you Knowing you

Since You Broke My Heart Composer(s): Don Everly First recording/First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1959/1960 Covered by multiple other artists
They say the blues went out of style To cry is to act just like a child Smile each day that we're apart But I kind of feel I never will Since you broke me heart
They say the best way's not to care Just play a few hands of solitaire Read a book or study art All the remedies don't work for me Since you broke my heart
They say the blues went out of style To cry is to act just like a child Smile each day that we're apart But I kind of feel I never will Since you broke me heart
Pennies From Heaven Composer(s): Arthur Johnston; Johnny Burke Performer(s): Bing Crosby; and various other artists
Every time it rains, it rains, pennies from heaven Don't you know each cloud contains pennies from heaven? You'll find your fortune's fallin' all over the town Make sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers If you want the things you love, you must have showers So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me
Every time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven Don't you know each cloud contains pennies from heaven? You'll find your fortune's fallin' all over the town Make sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers If you want the things you love, you must have showers So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me
So take a big deep breath of the clean fresh air Put a smile on your face be a millionaire The streets outside Are paved with gold There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me
Toi l'épouse modèle Le grillon du foyer Toi qui n'a point d'accrocs Dans ta robe de mariée Toi l'intraitable Pénélope En suivant ton petit Bonhomme de bonheur Ne berces-tu jamais En tout bien tout honneur De jolies pensées interlopes De jolies pensées interlopes...
Derrière tes rideaux Dans ton juste milieu En attendant l'retour D'un Ulysse de banlieue Penchée sur tes travaux de toile Les soirs de vague à l'âme Et de mélancolie N'as tu jamais en rêve Au ciel d'un autre lit Compté de nouvelles étoiles Compté de nouvelles étoiles...
N'as-tu jamais encore Appelé de tes vux L'amourette qui passe Qui vous prend aux cheveux Qui vous compte des bagatelles Qui met la marguerite Au jardin potager La pomme défendue Aux branches du verger Et le désordre à vos dentelles Et le désordre à vos dentelles...
N'as-tu jamais souhaité De revoir en chemin Cet ange, ce démon Qui son arc à la main Décoche des flèches malignes Qui rend leur chair de femme Aux plus froides statues Les bascul' de leur socle Bouscule leur vertu Arrache leur feuille de vigne Arrache leur feuille de vigne...
N'aie crainte que le ciel Ne t'en tienne rigueur Il n'y a vraiment pas là De quoi fouetter un cur Qui bat la campagne et galope C'est la faute commune Et le péché véniel C'est la face cachée De la lune de miel Et la rançon de Pénélope Et la rançon de Pénélope...
Since I've Used My Bible For A Roadmap Composer(s): Don Reno; Charles Schroeder Performer(s): Reno & Smiley; Allan McHale "Mac" & The Old Time Radio Gang
Since I've used my bible for a road map I've been traveling toward the promised land There has been no worry or obstruction No rough pavement and no sinking sand
I'm on the right road to glory Jesus leads me by the hand Since I've used my bible for a road map All my earthly travels have been grand
Since I've used my bible for a road map I'm insured by Jesus day and night And if I take the wrong direction My bible will always steer me right

Ik spaar de druppels van de dauw als het weer lente is Ik koop voor jou net wat je wou als het jou feestdag is Ik zal voor altijd op je blijven wachten En in gedachten ben ik bij jou Ik tel de sterren van april die aan de hemel staan Ik wou zo graag met jou gelukkig door het leven gaan Ik spaar voor jou de parels van de dauw Als het waar lente is voor jou Ik zal elke avond de deuren gaan sluiten Ik zal elke avond de lichten uit doen Wij zullen des zomers picknicken gaan buiten En voor elke hap, krijg jij ook een zoen Ik spaar de druppels van de dauw als het weer lente is Ik koop voor jou net wat je wou als het jou feestdag is Ik zal voor altijd op je blijven wachten En in gedachten ben ik bij jou Ik tel de sterren van april die aan de hemel staan Ik wou zo graag met jou gelukkig door het leven gaan Ik spaar voor jou de parels van de dauw Als het weer lente is voor jou

Pencil Neck Geek Composer(s): Pete Cicero; Martin Margulies Performer(s): Fred Blassie
Back when I was a kid, life was going swell Till something happened, blew every thing to hell That night my daddy stumbled in, all pale and weak Said "A woman up the block just gave birth to a geek"
Mom said, "Sell it to the circus, what the heck" Dad said, "Nope, this one's a pencil neck And if there's one thing lower than a side show freak It's a grit eatin', scum suckin', pencil neck geek"
You see if you take a pencil that won't hold lead Looks like a pipe cleaner attached to a head Add a buggy whip body with a brain that leaks You got yourself a grit eatin', pencil neck geek
(chorus) Pencil neck geek, grit eatin' freak scum suckin', pea head with a lousy physique He's a one man, no gut, loosing streak Nothin' but a pencil neck geek
Soon the geeks were poppin' up all over town You couldn't hardly sneeze without knockin' one down After a nice juicy steak, if you need a toothpick Just reach for a geek, they'll do the trick
One day we cut one up for fish bait Learned our lesson just a little bit late Soon as the geek hit the drink, the water turned red Next day, sure enough, all the fish were dead
chorus
Most any night you know where I can be found Yeah, stomping some geek's head into the ground So keep the faith 'cause in Blassie you can trust I won't give up 'til the last geek bites the dust
chorus
They say, "these geeks come a dime a dozen" I'm lookin' for the guy who's supplin' the dimes Its gonna be real hard times for all of these grit eatin' scum suckin' boot lickin' drop kickin' gut grindin' nail bitin' glue sniffin' scab pickin' butt scratchin' egg hatchin' sleezy smelly pepper bellied dirty, lousy, rotten, stinkin', freaks Nothing but a pencil neck geek
