Somebodys thinking of you tonight Somebodys thoughts are blue tonight Somebodys thinking they made a mistake Oh what a difference a parting can make

Una Zebra A Pois Composer(s): Marcello Ciorciolini; Lelio Luttazzi; D. Verde Performer(s): Mina
Per comporre una canzone commovente devi pensare a chi ti fa vibrare il cuore io l' ho scritta ed e' davvero sorprendente pur non essendo una canzone d'amore. Dante s'ispiro' a Beatrice... chi sarà la nostra ispiratrice! Mah!!... Una zebra a pois me l' ha data tempo fa uno strano maraja vecchio amico di papà Una zebra a pois (beh, che c'e'!) a pois, a pois, a pois! Una zebra a pois e' una grande novità: assomiglia a un sofà non a strisce ma a pois Una zebra a pois (beh, che c!e'!) a pois, a pois, a pois! La chiederanno certo alla televisione e le vorranno dedicare una canzone (credo questa qua!) Una zebra a pois fortunato chi ce l' ha! Poverina, lei non sa d'esser piena di pois Una zebra a pois (beh, che c'e'?) a pois, a pois, a pois! Pois, pois, pois, pois! Pois, pois, pois, pois! Pois, pois, pois, pois! Abracadabra e' bella la mia zebra! Pois, pois, pois, pois! Pois, pois, pois, pois! pois, pois, pois, pois! Ora vi canto la canzon: una zebra a pois fortunato chi ce l' ha! Poverina, lei non sa d'esser piena di pois Una zebra a pois (beh, che c'e'!) a pois, a pois, a pois! Una zebra... una zebra a pois... e tutto qua!
Lied Für Einen Freund First performance by: Maxi & Chris Garden - 1988
Hier ist ein Lied für dich, hör einfach zu Denn diese Melodie ist so wie du Hör zu Ehrlich und gradheraus, zärtlich und klug Fröhlich und still zugleich und stark genug Denn so bist du, wie dieses Lied für einen Freund Ein Lied wie du, so wie du lebst und wie du träumst Wenn du es hörst irgendwo - du fehlst mir so Freunde geh'n nie zu früh, sie enttäuschen dich nie Freunde bleiben wenn niemand sonst bleibt Teilen Glück und auch Leid Für dich ist dieses Lied, das ist nicht viel Doch wenn das Lied verklingt, bleibt ein Gefühl Denn so bist du, wie dieses Lied für einen Freund Ein Lied wie du, so wie du lebst und wie du träumst Wenn du es hörst irgendwo - du fehlst mir so
Un' Altra Vita Composer(s): Umberto Tozzi Performer(s): Umberto Tozzi
Quanti anni hai - perchè sei qui Quante promesse ti hanno fatto per finir così Bussi a una porta per non morire Quando nel buoi riesci solo a piangere vicino a un Dio Forse hai toccato già il fondo Ora rinasci davvero - non sono io che ti parlo Io sono in parte straniero Comincia qui un'altra vita E' primavera e tornerà tra le tue dita Finchè vivrai per i suoi occhi Solo un domani ci sarà - per l'eternità Accanto a te - ci sarò io Non esitare se vuoi ritornare caro amico mio Capita a volte davvero - è la magia che ho di te Che accende il fuoco più vero E brucia tutti i perchè Comincia qui non è finita E' primavera e tornerai nella mia vita Finchè vivrò - dentro ai tuoi occhi Solo un domani ci sarà - sarà per l'eternità
Somebody's Tearin' The Flag Composer(s): Eddy Raven Performer(s): Eddy Raven
Somebody's tearin' the Flag Rippin' the thread from the stars Pullin' this Country apart Somebody's tearin' the Flag
Lord, I've been thinkin' Sittin' out here on the front porch all by myself I realize I need to talk to somebody I'm just too mixed up to talk to anybody else
I've been in there looking at the television And I've been reading that newspaper every night Lord there's somethin' going on out there And the best I can figure, there ain't nobody right
Somebody's tearin' the Flag Rippin' the thread from the stars Pullin' this Country apart Somebody's tearin' the Flag
You know I went into town to pay the light bill today And to pick up just a few things down at the store Ah the prices have gone up so much this year The working man don't stand much of a chance no more
Why he's over taxed, he's under paid Can't buy the things for his kids a decent home And with the drugs and the maniacs runnin' loose on the streets It ain't safe to be out alone
Somebody's tearin' the Flag Rippin' the thread from the stars Pullin' this Country apart Somebody's tearin' the Flag
Why I can't even tell if the bad guys are after the good guys Or the good guys are after the bad And I really got to watch what I say around my friends `Cause one of them's liable to get mad
Lord, you know me and I ain't give up yet Maybe I'm just tired and all worn out But it kinda looks like to me That this One Nation Under God Gonna need God to straighten it out
Somebody's tearin' the Flag Rippin' the thread from the stars Pullin' this Country apart Somebody's burnin' the Flag
Un' Avventura Composer(s): Lucio Battisti; Mogol Performer(s): Lucio Battisti; Rick Crom; Formula 3; Marvel; Mietta; Mogol; Massimo Ranieri
Non sarà un'avventura non può essere soltanto una primavera questo amore non à una stella che al mattino se ne va
Non sarà un'avventura questo amore è fatto solo di poesia tu sei mia tu sei mia fino a quando gli occhi miei avran luce per guardare gli occhi tuoi
Innamorato sempre di più in fondo all'anima per sempre tu. Perché non è una promessa ma è quel che sarà domani e sempre sempre vivrà sempre vivrà sempre vivrà sempre vivrà
No, non sarà un'avventura non è un fuoco che col vento può morire ma vivrà quanto il mondo fino a quando gli occhi miei avran luce per guardare gli occhi tuoi
Innamorato sempre di più in fondo all'anima per sempre tu. Perché non è una promessa ma è quel che sarà domani e sempre sempre vivrà Perché non è una promessa ma è quel che sarà...
Take Him Home Composer(s): Peter Eades First performance by: Jump The Gun - 1988
So much to do, so little time You ask me, can I change the world? And then, for everybody's sake What are the changes I would make? And you can dream, dream on, my friend You have the right There is something we can do Something we can do, it's so easy
If I light a candle for everybody I know I could see forever down that long, long road
So if you meet somebody, it might be someone I know Brother, if he needs you, take him home
You can look him in the eye and hold out your hand Tell him you're a brother and he'll understand
So if you meet somebody, it might be someone I know Brother, if he needs you... Brother, if he needs you, take him home
So if you meet somebody, it might be someone I know Brother, if he needs you... Brother, if he needs you... Brother, if he needs you, take him home
Ich war schwanger, mir ging's zum Kotzen Ich wollt's nicht haben, brauchste gar nicht erst zu fragen! Ich fress' Tabletten und überhaupt Mann! Ich schaff' mir keine kleinen Kinder an
Warum soll ich meine Pflicht als Frau erfüllen? Für wen? Für die? Für dich? Für mich? Ich hab' keine Lust meine Pflicht zu erfüllen! Für dich nicht, für mich nicht Ich hab' keine Pflicht!
Als es vorbei war, ging's mir zum Kotzen Jetzt ist es Zeit endlich mal aufzumotzen Ich fress' Tabletten und überhaupt Mann! Ich schaff' mir keine kleinen Kinder an!
Warum soll ich meine Pflicht als Frau erfüllen? Für wen? Für die? Für dich? Für mich? Ich hab' keine Lust meine Pflicht zu erfüllen! Für dich nicht, für mich nicht Ich hab' keine Pflicht!
Marlene hatte andere Pläne Simone Beauvoir sagt: "Gott bewahr!" Und vor dem ersten Kinderschreien Muss ich mich erstmal selbst befreien Und augenblicklich fühl' ich mich Unbeschreiblich weiblich - WEIBLICH

Somebody's knockin', should I let him in Lord, it's the Devil, would you look at him I've heard about him, but I never dreamed He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans
Well, somebody's talkin', he's whisperin' to me Your place or my place, well, which will it be I'm gettin' weaker and he's comin' on strong But I don't wanna go wrong
He must have tapped my telephone line He must have known I was spendin' my time alone He says we'll have one heavenly night My fever's burnin', so he oughta be right at home
Somebody's knockin', should I let him in Lord, it's the Devil, would you look at him I've heard about him, but I never dreamed He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans

Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love, I need your love God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea To the open arms of the sea Lonely rivers sigh "Wait for me, wait for me" "I'll be coming home, wait for me!"
Are you still mine? I need your love, I need your love God speed your love to me
Uncle Bernie's Farm Composer(s): Frank Zappa Performer(s): The Mothers Of Invention
I'm dreaming (Oh no-o-o!)
There's a bomb to blow yo mommy up A bomb for your daddy too (Ouch!) A baby doll that burps and pees A case of airplane glue A hungry plastic troll To scarf yo buddy's arm A box of ugly plastic things marked Uncle Bernie's Farm!
There's a little plastic congress There's a nation you can buy (I'll take two) There's a doll that looks like mommy She'll do anything but cry (I seen her) There's a doll that looks like daddy He's a funny little man Push a button and ask for money There's a dollar in his hand (Check his wallet)
We gotta send Santa Claus back to the Rescue Mission Christmas don't make it no more Don't you know that murder and destruction Scream the toys in every store (Think this'll sell in New York?)
There's a man who runs the country There's a man who tried to think And they're all made out of plastic When they melt they start to stink There's a book with smiling children Nearly dead with Christmas joys! And smiling in his office Is the creep who makes the toys
Frank Zappa: We got this car, when it hits the wall you see the guy dying. Got the little plastic puddles of blood by the car. I'm dreaming!
Ray Collins: He has intestines, he has plastic intestines you can stuff back into his stomach.
Frank Zappa: There's this other thing, I've got bombs. I've got rockets, I've got a, I've got a stilson wrench and plastic brass knuckles.
Ray Collins: And it comes with a tape recorder with sound effects
