    Sing A Song
    Composer(s): Maurice White; Al McKay
    Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire



    When you feel down and out
    Sing a song, it'll make your day
    Here's a time to shout
    Sing a song, it'll make a way
    Sometimes it's hard to care
    Sing a song, it'll make your day
    A smile so hard to bear
    Sing a song, it'll make a way

    Sing a song
    Sing a song
    Sing a song
    Sing a song

    Bring your heart to believing
    Sing a song, it'll make your day
    Life ain't about no retrieving
    Sing a song, it'll make a way
    Give yourself what you need
    Sing a song, it'll make your day
    Smile, smile, smile and believe
    Sing a song, it'll make a way

    Sing a song
    Sing a song
    Sing a song
    Sing a song

    People Are Strange
    Composer(s): John Densmore; Robbie Krieger;
    Ray Manzarek; Jim Morrison
    Performer(s): The Doors



    People are strange when you're a stranger
    Faces look ugly when you're alone
    Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
    Streets are uneven when you're down

    When you're strange
    Faces come out of the rain
    When you're strange
    No one remembers your name
    When you're strange
    When you're strange
    When you're strange

    People are strange when you're a stranger
    Faces look ugly when you're alone
    Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
    Streets are uneven when you're down

    When you're strange
    Faces come out of the rain
    When you're strange
    No one remembers your name
    When you're strange
    When you're strange
    When you're strange

    When you're strange
    Faces come out of the rain
    When you're strange
    No one remembers your name
    When you're strange
    When you're strange
    When you're strange

    Non À Jamais Sans Toi
    First performance by: Yovanna - 1965



    Non - par le temps perdu à n'avoir voulu que toi
    Non - par le temps passé à ne plus penser qu'à toi
    Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
    Va, tu n'as rien compris
    Va, tu vois, je ne pleure pas
    Aujourd'hui je te dis

    Non - par les grands chemins revenus de loin pour toi
    Non - par les nuits d'été qui n'ont fait danser que toi
    Va, jusqu'au bout de l'horizon
    Aujourd'hui c'est non

    Non - parce qu'un matin ne restera rien de toi
    Non - il viendra le jour du prochain amour sans toi
    Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
    À jamais sans toi
    Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
    À jamais sans toi

    People Are Funnier Than Anybody
    Composer(s): Eddie Brandt; Finberg
    Performer(s): Spike Jones



    Everyone say to begin the beguine
    but no-one she begins him, so I will tell you how
    First you lift your right leg, like this
    Then you lift your left leg, like this
    Then you lift both your legs together, like this
    There must be an easier way to do this, I think

    This is our philosophy
    This is our philosophy
    And we're sure, that you'll agree
    People are funnier that anybody

    Woman needs five dollars bad
    Beauty facial must be had
    Husband can't spare the money, of course
    But he puts ten dollars on the nose of a horse

    Wife can't see well enough to drive
    Car through garage-doors twelve foot wide
    But on husbands suit of grey
    She can spot a blond hair from a block away

    This is our philosophy
    This is our philosophy
    And we're sure, that you'll agree
    People are funnier that anybody

    Husband plays poker and enjoys
    Sitting up all of night with the boys
    But at home with his wife he'll fight
    If he has to sit ten minutes with the baby at night

    Wife runs faster than any gale
    When she hears of a one-cent sale
    "I'm saving you money" to her husband she'll blab
    But to get to the sale she takes a taxi-cab

    This is our philosophy
    This is our philosophy
    And we're sure, that you'll agree
    People are funnier that anybody

    Man gets married, says it's one good deal
    He waited years for a homecooked meal
    When wife has nice hot dinner on plate
    He comes home from the poolroom two hours late

    When single man kiss his girl goodnight
    He gets filled with thrilled delight
    But when husband kiss his wife, to say the least
    He gets his nose caught in a curler and his whole face greased

    People fly
    People flee
    People clam and say "it wasn't me"
    People fish

    People arm to teeth
    Yes, you've got people on the tube
    Walking on the moon
    People at the bottom of the sea
    People in tombs
    People in igloos
    Even a tribe of pygmies

    People are the main spring
    Turning the world around
    People, they're the main spring
    Spinning this world upside down

    People sun
    People toast
    People tire Chile
    Other people smoke
    People bowl
    People rock
    people pay to see two people box

    Watch me
    Face me
    Dress me
    Baby me
    Phone me

    House me
    Bug me
    Fire me

    People are the main spring

    People, they're the main spring
    Turning this world inside out

    Cežnja
    First performance by: Vice Vukov - 1965



    Šumi, šumi more pjenom bijelom dok nemirni val
    Donosi svaki put odjeke sjecanja
    Odjeke maštanja na ovaj žal, tihi žal

    Tiho šumi, šumi more kao nekad u danima sna
    Kad smo na pješcanom tlu umorni zaspali
    Zaspali tu, tu na tlu vreloga juga

    Oh... pricaj, more, pricaj meni ti
    O svitanju jutra moje cežnje za njom

    Tiho šumi, šumi more k'o da želi da isprica sad
    Šapatom cutanja sve o jednoj ljubavi
    Ro?enoj tu, tu na tlu vreloga juga

    Oh... pricaj, more, pricaj meni ti
    O svitanju jutra moje cežnje za njom
    Moje duboke ?ežnje za njom

    People
    People who need people
    Are the luckiest people in the world
    We're children, needing other children
    And yet letting a grown-up pride
    Hide all the need inside
    Acting more like children than children
    Lovers are very special people
    They're the luckiest people in the world
    With one person one very special person
    A feeling deep in your soul
    Says you were half now you're whole
    No more hunger and thirst
    But first be a person who needs people
    People who need people
    Are the luckiest people in the world
    With one person one very special person
    No more hunger and thirst
    But first be a person who needs people
    People who need people
    Are the luckiest people in the world …

    Sing me a song of sadness
    And sing it as blue as I feel
    If a tear should appear it's because she's not here
    Sing a sad song and sing it for me

    She's unhappy with me she told me so
    I'm unhappy without her
    And I still love her so
    Oh sing me a song of sadness
    Pretend it's the end of the world
    Sing it sweet and sing it low
    And then I'll have to go sing a sad song
    And sing it for me

    Sing it sweet and sing it low
    And then I'll have to go sing a sad song
    And sing it for me

    Penthouse Serenade (When We're Alone)
    Composer(s): Val Burton; Will Jason
    Performer(s): Bob Hope



    Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
    With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
    A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I
    When we're alone

    From all of society, we'll stay aloof
    And live in propriety there on the roof
    Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
    When we're all alone

    We'll use life's mad pattern
    As we view old Manhattan
    Then we can thank our lucky stars
    That we're living as we are

    In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
    To keep love and romance forever alive
    In view of the Hudson just over the drive
    When we're alone

    Aamulla aurinko nousi taivaani kirkastaen

    Nyt aurinko laskee länteen

    aurinko rakkaudeton

    Uskonut illan en koskaan
    saapuvan äkkiä näin
    kunnes näin sinisen linnun
    lentävän etelää päin

    Näin sen ja ymmärsin sen
    poissa aika on rakkauden
    kun aurinko laskee länteen

    Onneni auringon luulin
    taivaalle seisahtaneen
    kunnes näin sammuvan välkkeen
    kuohussa tulisen veen

    Näin sen ja ymmärsin sen

    Penthouse Pauper
    Composer(s): John Fogerty
    Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival; Molly Hatchet



    Now, if I was a bricklayer
    I wouldn't build just anything
    And if I was a ball player
    I wouldn't play no second string
    And if I were some jew'lry, baby
    Lord, I'd have to be a diamond ring

    If I were a secret, Lord, I never would be told
    If I were a jug of wine, Lord, my flavor would be old
    I could be most anything
    But it got to be twenty-four karat solid gold, oh

    If I were a gambler
    You know I'd never lose
    And if I were a guitar player
    Lord, I'd have to play the blues

    If I was a hacksaw
    My blade would be razor sharp
    If I were a politician, I could prove that monkeys talk
    You can find the tallest building
    Lord, I'd have me the house on top

    Oh, let's go!
    All right, keep goin'!

    I'm the Penthouse Pauper
    I got nothin' to my name
    I'm the Penthouse Pauper; baby
    I got nothing to my name
    I can be most anything
    'Cause when you got nothin' it's all the same

    Oh, let's move to this song!
    Lord, look at my penthouse

    Non restare chiuso qui pensiero
    riempiti di sole e vai nel cielo
    cerca la tua casa e poi sul muro
    scrivi tutto ciò che sai, che è vero, che è vero

    Sono un uomo strano ma sincero
    cerca di spiegarlo a lei pensiero
    quella notte giù in città non c' ero
    male non le ho fatto mai davvero, davvero

    Solo lei nell' anima è rimasta lo sai
    questo uomo inutile troppo stanco ormai
    Solo tu pensiero puoi fuggire se vuoi
    la sua pelle morbida accarezzerai

    C'è sulla montagna il suo sentiero
    vola fin lassù da lei pensiero
    dal cuscino ascolta il suo respiro
    porta il suo sorriso qui vicino, vicino

    Non restare chiuso qui pensiero
    riempiti di sole e va nel cielo
    cerca la tua casa e poi sul muro
    scrivi tutto ciò che sai pensiero, pensiero

    and various other artists



    Che ne sai di un bambino che rubava
    e soltanto nel buio giocava
    e del sole che trafigge i solai, che ne sai
    e di un mondo tutto chiuso in una via
    e di un cinema di periferia
    che ne sai della nostra ferrovia, che ne sai
    Conosci me la mia lealtà
    tu sai che oggi morirei per onestà
    Conosci me il nome mio
    tu sola sai se è vero o no che credo in Dio

    Che ne sai tu di un campo di grano
    poesia di un amore profano
    la paura d'esser preso per mano, che ne sai
    (l'amore mio) che ne sai di un ragazzo perbene
    (è roccia ormai) che mostrava tutte quante le sue pene
    (e sfida il tempo e sfida il vento e tu lo sai)
    la mia sincerità per rubare la sua verginità
    (sì tu lo sai) che ne sai

    Davanti a me c'è un'altra vita
    la nostra è già finita
    e nuove notti e nuovi giorni
    cara vai o torni con me
    Davanti a te ci sono io (dammi forza mio Dio)
    o un altro uomo (chiedo adesso perdono)
    e nuove notti e nuovi giorni
    cara non odiarmi se puoi

    (Conosci me) che ne sai di un viaggio in Inghilterra
    (quel che darei) che ne sai di un amore israelita
    (perché negli altri ritrovassi gli occhi miei)
    di due occhi sbarrati che mi han detto bugiardo è finita
    Che ne sai di un ragazzo che ti amava
    che parlava e niente sapeva
    eppur quel che diceva chissà perché chissà adesso è verità

    First performance by: Birgit Brüel - 1965



    For din skyld bru'r jeg brusende skørter
    For din skyld er jeg pigelig, sart og koket
    For din skyld skal jeg hver gang erobres
    For din drøm er at tæmme mig, svage og bly
    Mens jeg tappert gør modstand

    Hver gang skal det være som dengang
    Hver gang jeg vil gi', vil du hellere ta'
    Men min drøm er at elske i venskab
    Jeg er træt af min kvindelighed
    For den bli'r du så bredskuldret af
    Jeg syn's ikke om mænd, der er mænd
    Men om mænd, der er menn'sker

    For din skyld er det slut med komedien
    For din skyld er det tid at ta' maskerne af
    For din skyld gør din elskede oprør
    Jeg er ikke dit bytte, men ligemand
    Menn'ske, jeg si'r det for din skyld

    For ellers glider jeg

    French Title: Rendez-Vous Chaque Soir
    Composer(s): G. Boncompagni;
    Jimmy Fontana; C. Pes; I. Greco
    Performer(s): Dalida



    Pensiamoci ogni sera al tramontar del sole
    Sarà l'appuntamento che uniti ci terrà
    Tu sei, partito e di te
    Mi è rimasta una sola promessa
    Pensiamoci ogni sera al tramontar del sole

    Mi manca la tua voce mi mancano i tuoi baci
    Piccole e grandi cose che mi han legato a te
    Ma è bello sapere che noi
    C'incontriamo nel cielo ogni sera
    Vicino all'orizzonte dove tramonta il sole
    Chissà, quando tu tornerai
    E chissà, se mi ritroverai
    So soltanto che ora io, io, io conto i giorni
    Fino a che
    Tu sarai qui con me, oh qui con me

    Chissà, quando tu tornerai
    E chissà, se mi ritroverai
    So soltanto che ora io, io, io conto i giorni
    Fino a che
    Tu sarai qui con me, oh qui con me

    Pensiamoci ogni sera al tramontar del sole
    Sarà l'appuntamento che uniti ci terrà ...

    Sing A Little Song About Anything
    Composer(s): Smiley Burnette
    Performer(s): Roy Rogers



    Just sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy
    Words should rhyme but who’s got time
    Just sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy

    I know lots of things worth knowing
    But you won’t have a need of an education where you’re going
    I am haunted
    You mean wanted
    Sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy

    What do you think of a crazy geek who feels so cheerful
    And he a guy who’s never cried “Oh how fearful!”
    Sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy

    Would you ever think the fellow knows the meaning of worry
    One of you who’s never blue or in a hurry
    Sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy

    I’ll be singing
    You mean swinging
    Sing a little song about anything
    I wonder why I feel so happy

    Pensée Des Morts
    Composer(s): Alphonse De Lamartine; Georges Brassens
    Performer(s): Georges Brassens



    Voilà les feuilles sans sève
    qui tombent sur le gazon
    voilà le vent qui s'élève
    et gémit dans le vallon
    voilà l'errante hirondelle
    qui rase du bout de l'aile
    l'eau dormante des marais
    voilà l'enfant des chaumières
    qui glane sur les bruyères
    le bois tombé des forêts

    C'est la saison où tout tombe
    aux coups redoublés des vents
    un vent qui vient de la tombe
    moissonne aussi les vivants
    ils tombent alors par mille
    comme la plume inutile
    que l'aigle abandonne aux airs
    lorsque des plumes nouvelles
    viennent réchauffer ses ailes
    à l'approche des hivers

    C'est alors que ma paupière
    vous vit palir et mourir
    tendres fruits qu'à la lumière
    dieu n'a pas laissé murir
    quoique jeune sur la terre
    je suis dejà solitaire
    parmi ceux de ma saison
    et quand je dis en moi-même
    "où sont ceux que ton cœur aime?"
    je regarde le gazon

    C'est un ami de l'enfance
    qu'aux jours sombres du malheur
    nous preta la providence
    pour appuyer notre cœur
    il n'est plus: notre âme est veuve
    il nous suit dans notre épreuve
    et nous dit avec pitié
    "Ami si ton âme est pleine
    de ta joie ou de ta peine
    qui portera la moitié?"

    C'est une jeune fiancée
    qui, le front ceint du bandeau
    n'emporta qu'une pensée
    de sa jeunesse au tombeau
    Triste, hélas! dans le ciel même
    pour revoir celui qu'elle aime
    elle revient sur ses pas
    et lui dit: "ma tombe est verte!
    sur cette terre déserte
    qu'attends-tu? je n'y suis pas!"

    C'est l'ombre pâle d'un père
    qui mourut en nous nommant
    c'est une sœur, c'est un frère
    qui nous devance un moment
    tous ceux enfin dont la vie
    un jour ou l'autre ravie
    enporte une part de nous
    murmurent sous la pierre
    "vous qui voyez la lumière
    de nous vous souvenez vous?"

    Voilà les feuilles sans sève
    qui tombent sur le gazon
    voilà le vent qui s'élève
    et gémit dans le vallon
    voilà l'errante hirondelle
    qui rase du bout de l'aile
    l'eau dormante des marais
    voilà l'enfant des chaumières
    qui glane sur les bruyères
    le bois tombé des forêts
