Lookout Composer(s): Rick Nielsen Performer(s): Cheap Trick
There is somewhere some place in this world I want to take you, look out, look out, look out I am one boy, one boy in a thousand that wants to make you Look out, little girl, little girl, little girl look out Ahhh
If you're hiding and I'm hiding From some bum that wants to get you Look out, look out, look out If you're lonely and I'm lonely And I'm near you I can hear you Look out little girl, little girl, little girl look out Ahhh
Sea over yonder when the rights are read your name, ah You search for the riddle to the clue to the river she came Look out on the land to the south, to the east three said, ah Cancel colorado in the march by request Don't go on the lookout of a whim, aye she said
There is somewhere some place in this world I want to take you, look out, look out, look out I am one boy, one boy in a thousand that wants to make you Look out, little girl, little girl, little girl look out Ahhh
Little girl, little girl, little girl Little girl!
Lookin' For A Reason Composer(s): John C. Fogerty Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival
I'm looking for a reason to stay I'm all wound up and tied in knots today I'm looking for a reason not to go When the morning comes, I'll be on my way
Every night I ask myself again Just what it was that made our dream begin It seemed like a good idea way back then But I'm wondering now what daydream took me in
I'm looking for a reason to stay I'm all wound up and tied in knots today I'm looking for a reason not to go When the morning comes, I'll be on my way
Yesterday I tried once more to find A way to share the trouble on my mind It seems like you turn away every time I used to like it here, I can't remember why

Looking Glass Girl Composer(s): Robert Smith - Steven Severin Performer(s): The Glove
Like a looking glass girl in a minature world saw you dance like dice and tumble to the floor like a looking glass girl in a minature world whirl your disney arms and jump the merry-go-round The Umbrella man is shouting we shake his paper hands there's mirrors down beneath our feet so:-"Lets skate down the street" the Casino man is laughing he wears a shivering hat we peel away like tinsel stick like splinters to the wall like a looking glass girl in a minature world she saw you dressed in rags in-and-out of a jack-in-the-box because she's a looking glass girl in a minature world whirl your see-saw arms and ride the catherine wheel (foot, foot)

Zeit Composer(s): Ralph Siegel - Bernd Meinunger First performance by: Bianca Shomburg - 1997
Manchmal lief die Zeit mir durch die Hände Manchmal wollt sie einfach nicht vergehn Doch die Zeit heilt viele Wunden Und in manchen schweren Stunden Träumte ich die Zeit zurückzudrehn - denn
Zeit, Zeit Wo bleibt nur die Zeit Zeit, Zeit Wann ist es soweit Wer weiss was noch passiert Wer weiss wohin der Weg mich führt Sag wo bist du Zeit Zeit Was kommt in dieser Zeit Noch auf mich zu
Ich hab um ein bisschen Glück gebetet Und um die verlor'ne Zeit geweint Doch es konnt' auf eine Frage Mir keiner hier die Antwort sagen Können wir in Frieden glücklich sein - nein
Zeit, Zeit Wo bleibt nur die Zeit Zeit, Zeit Wann ist es soweit Wo werd ich morgen sein Bin ich am Ende doch allein Und wo bist du
Zeit, Zeit (Wie schnell die Zeit vergeht) Wo bleibt nur die Zeit Zeit, Zeit (Wie schnell der Wind sich dreht) Wann ist es soweit Wer weiss was noch passiert Wer weiss wohin der Weg uns führt Sag wo bist du Zeit, Zeit Ist der Weg auch weit Ich brauch dazu Nur ein wenig Zeit
Through The Eyes Of Love Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch - Carole Bayer Sager
First release by: Melissa Manchester - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
Please, don't let this feeling end
It's ev'rything I am
Ev'rything I wanna be
I can see what's mine now
Finding out what's true
Since I found you
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Now I can take the time
I can see my life
As it comes up shining now
Reaching out to touch you
I can feel so much
Since I found you
Lookin' through the eyes of love
And now I do believe
That even in a storm, we'll find some light
Knowing you're beside me
I'm alright
Please, don't let this feelin' end
It might not come again
And I want to remember
How it feels to touch you
How I feel so much
Since I found you
Lookin' through the eyes of love
And now I do believe
That even in a storm, we'll find some light
Knowing you're beside me
I'm alright
Now I can take the time
I can see my life
As it comes up shining now
Reaching out to touch you
I can feel so much
Since I've found you
Lookin' through the eyes of love
Looking For A Lady Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg; Blake C; Lil' Cease
Looking for a lady I'm looking for a lady To change my night to day Looking for a lady I'm looking for a lady To chase my blues away
Well, I have a few in mind but none in particular I have had them before but nothing that was for sure And I'm in no position to barter And I'm in no condition to play the martyr And I'm sadder certainly but I'm smarter And I find myself
Looking for a lady I'm looking for a lady To share my empty bed Looking for a lady I'm looking for a lady To soothe my aching head
And my feelings have grown rigid like a wooden post And my love is like a curtain that has been drawn closed And my life just isn't going the way I thought it was supposed to And I'm crying and I find myself
Looking for a lady I'm looking for a lady To change my night to day
Soul Kitchen Composer(s): Jim Morrison - John Densmore - Robby Krieger - Ray Manzarek First release by: The Doors - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Well, the clock says it's time to close - now I guess I'd better go - now; I'd really like to stay here all - night The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes street lights shed their hollow glow your brain seems bruised with numb surprise Still one place to go still one place to go
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out and I'll wander, baby stumbling in the neon groves
Your fingers weave quick mi-na-rets speaking in secret al-pha-bets I light another ci-ga-rette learn to forget learn to forget learn to forget learn to forget
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out and stumbling in the neon groves
Well the clock says it's time to close - now I know I'll have to go now I really want to stay here all night All - night All night
Sodome Et Gomorrhe Composer(s): Nino Ferrer - A. Lecocq Performer(s): Nino Ferrer
Depuis quelque temps des bruits courent Des signes apparaissent Dans les faubourgs de Gomorrhe On ressent l'angoisse Dans les palais de Sodome Les escaliers glissent Les murs suintent des limaces Et l'air sent la pisse
Bientôt Sodome et Gomorrhe S'écrouleront dans le feu Dans le fatras dans l'ordure Fuyons, tant que fuir se peut
On s'enfuit par un dédale De tunnels gluants Des milliers de rats détalent Sous nos pas tremblants L'un de nous glisse et s'étale Dans un trou béant Et tous les autres s'affolent Vers l'évacuation
Fuyons Sodome et Gomorrhe Leurs futiles dépravations Avant que l'horreur s'écroule Et qu'on reste pris dedans
Voilà Sodome et Gomorrhe Au moment de l'éruption Où tout s'écrase et dégueule On reste deux compagnons
On a marché comme des bêtes Et mangé des rats Poursuivis par la tempête On s'est cachés là Une concession à perpète Un tombeau de roi On s'est cachés, bien tranquilles Et soudain voilà
L'il de Sodome et Gomorrhe Est dans la tombe avec moi L'il de Sodome et Gomorrhe Qui me regarde tout bas
Lookin' Out My Back Door Composer(s): John Fogerty Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival; Euro Grass; The Traveling Band
Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin'
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn A dinosaur Victrola list'ning to Buck Owens
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo, doo Wondrous apparition provided by a magician
Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door
Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo, doo Bother me tommorrow, today I'll buy no sorrows
Doo, doo, doo lookin' out my back door
Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn Bother me tommorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows
Looking Back To See Composer(s): Jim Ed Brown - Maxine Brown First recording/First release by: Jim Edward Brown & Maxine Brown - 1954 Covered by multiple other artists
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
One Sunday afternoon as I was ridin' down the street I met a cute little girl all dressed up so neat And the way that she was stacked I wish I'd've had a Cadillac For who would notice me just drivin' this model T
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
Now listen baby it don't matter to me Even in your model T you're as cute as you can be If you'll take me for a ride I will set close by your side And I will guarantee that we'll have fun on man alive
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
Oh gee oh me perhaps you'd notice me If I wadn't drivin' this model T
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
Antes Do Adeus Composer(s): Rosa Maria de Bettencourt - Rodrigues Faria - Thilo Krassman First performance by: Célia Lawson - 1997
Antes do adeus, a aventura Antes do adeus, a loucura Antes do adeus, a ternura Juras ao luar, e a canção do mar, porque...
Antes do adeus (Tuas trovas, teus lamentos) Improviso (Ouvia-se em toda a rua) Antes do adeus (Na outra esquina do vento) No sorriso (Na outra face da lua)
Antes do adeus (Os teus sonhos eram meus) Paraíso (A minha videira tua) Lemos os sinais (Antes de dizer adeus) E até fomos imortais
E à noite um rio, onde o sol se pôs Meu corpo, um navio na maré da tua voz Sons ao desafio, a vibrar por nós E a luz da manhã era mágica
Antes do adeus (Devolveste os meus poetas) A desfeita (Nos teus olhos vi rancor) Antes do adeus (Houve palavras secretas) A suspeita (No avesso do amor)
Antes do adeus (Onde escondeste, maldosa) Imperfeita (Um livro de Saramago) A partilha a dois (E um disco do Abrunhosa) P'ra lembrar depois, mas...
O azul do céu deixou de ser verdade Em cinzas morreu a magia da cidade No meu olhar nasceu a sombra da ansiedade E a dor silenciou toda a música
O azul do céu deixou de ser verdade Em cinzas morreu a magia da cidade No meu olhar nasceu a sombra da ansiedade E a dor silenciou toda a música
Making Your Mind Up Composer(s): John Danter - Andy Hill First release by: Bucks Fizz - 1981
You gotta speed it up And then you gotta slow it down 'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top You gotta play around But soon you will find that there comes a time For making your mind up
You gotta turn it on And then you gotta put it out You gotta be sure that it's something Everybody's gonna talk about Before you decide that the time's arrived For making your mind up
Don't let your indecision Take you from behind Trust your inner vision Don't let others change your mind
And now you really gotta burn it up And make another fly by night Get a run for your money And take a chance and it'll turn out right But when you can see how it's gotta be You're making your mind up
And try to look as if you don't care less But if you wanna see some more Bending the rules of the game Will let you find the one you're looking for And then you can show that you think you know You're making your mind up
Don't let your indecision Take you from behind Trust your inner vision Don't let others change your mind
And now you really gotta speed it up And then you gotta slow it down 'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top You gotta play around But soon you will find that there comes a time For making your mind up
And now you really gotta speed it up And then you gotta slow it down 'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top You gotta play around But soon you will find that there comes a time For making your mind up For making your mind up For making your mind up For making your mind up
You Don't Need A License For That Composer(s): Fred E. Cliffe - George Formby Performer(s): George Formby
If you've a pub or a small hotel You need a license for all you sell! Huh, you may think I'm romancin' But they even tax you for singin' and dancin'!
You need a license, whatever you do One or two things they've exempted, it's true Lumbago, the gout, or a touch o' the 'flu You don't need a license for that!
Now I've got a license for chickens to lay One of them sat on a brick yesterday And then started cluckin', as much as to say "He-he! You won't need a license for that!"
We've had a good time A "wines in the wood" time if it were duty free We'd cut the taxes With our battleaxes Then roll out the barrel for me!
There is much license, you bet on your life If you keep a cow, then there's trouble and strife! As farmer Dean said when he looked at his wife "By gum, I'll not need a license for that!"
You need a license for shootin' down game But I'd rather flirt with a beautiful dame 'Cause I get the sport with the birds just the same And I don't need a license for that!
We sit in the pictures, as warm as a glove In the back row of the circle above Two bobs' worth of dark and a basin of love And I don't need a license for that!
We've had a good time A "wines in the wood" time if it were duty free We'd cut the taxes With our battleaxes Then roll out the barrel for me!
Fishing at Richmond is licensed by law A chap to his girl said, "Now you hold your jaw! He-he! You know exactly what I'm fishing for And I don't need a license for that, no sir! And I don't need a license for that!
