Hand In Glove Composer(s): Johnny Marr; Morrissey Performer(s): Sandie Shaw; The Smiths
Hand in glove The sun shines out of our behinds No, it's not like any other love This one's different - because it's us
Hand in glove We can go wherever we please And everything depends upon How near you stand to me
And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care
Hand in glove The Good People laugh Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have
Hand in glove The sun shines out of our behinds Yes, we may be hidden by rags But we've something they'll never have
And if the people stare Then the people stare Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care
So, hand in glove I'll stake my claim I'll fight to the last breath
If they dare touch a hair on your head I'll fight to the last breath
For the Good Life is out there somewhere So I'll stay on your arm, 'cause you're so charming
But I know my luck too well Yes, I know my luck too well And I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again I'll probably never see you again
Han Lämnar Mig För Att Komma Till Dig Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog; Björn Ulvaeus Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Jag har sett det i hans ögon När han tittar efter dig Han vill dölja sina känslor För att inte såra mig Jag har anat det rätt länge Att det skulle bli så här
Han lämnar mig för att komma till dig Du, som är min bästa vän Det känns väl alltid svårt när lyckan vänder Ingen ska klandra dig för att det händer Han lämnar mig för att komma till dig Vi ska va' vänner, trots allt Jag önskar er all lycka, för du är ju ändå Den bästa han nånsin kan få
Du ska inte vara ledsen För att jag blir ensam här Kanske möter jag nån annan Kanske blir jag åter kär Lyckan är så svår att fånga Svårare att hålla kvar
Han lämnar mig för att komma till dig Du, som är min bästa vän Det känns väl alltid svårt när lyckan vänder Ingen ska klandra dig för att det händer Han lämnar mig för att komma till dig Vi ska va' vänner, trots allt Jag önskar er all lycka, för du är ju ändå Den bästa han nånsin kan få

Some folks tell you what to do They think they know more than you They insist that they're givin' sound advice But as sure as you're livin' It ain't sound, it ain't nice It just doesn't sound like sound advice
Some folks like to be the boss They get up on their high horse Oh they say that you're gettin, sound advice There one thing I'm bettin' It ain't wise, it ain't nice You won't like the sound of their advice
Sound advice we're given Just as sure as your as you're livin' If your smart you'll think twice When they start to sound off with advice
Sound advice we're given Just as sure as your as you're livin' If your smart you'll think twice When they start to sound off with advice Don't listen to their sound advice

Hammer To Fall Composer(s): Brian May Performer(s): Queen; and various other artists
Here we stand or here we fall History won't care at all Make the bed, light the light Lady Mercy won't be home tonight, yeah
You don't waste no time at all Don't hear the bell but you answer the call It comes to you as to us all We're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah
Oh every night and every day A little piece of you is falling away But lift your face, the Western Way Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah
Tow your line and play their game Let the anaesthetic cover it all Till one day they call your name You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous for your truth is all the same Lock your door but rain is pouring through your window pane Baby now your struggle's all in vain
For we who grew up tall and proud In the shadow of the mushroom cloud Convinced our voices can't be heard We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell we fighting for? Just surrender and it won't hurt at all You just got time to say your prayers While you're waiting for the hammer to hammer to fall It's going to fall Yeah, hammer to fall Give it to me one more time

Have you got a fine place to slip to When you're feeling down? Have you had a week or two Just to get your troubles down? Found a lot of life and laughter With a grandfather in the bowery She had a body of sixteen or seventeen She had a mind of forty I met her on a cold day in a city far away
When the world's about zero And I saw at once into her soul She's bound to call me her hero
Then like a walk in the rain or the lane I found a lot of death that day With the grandfather in the bowery 'Cause I love her like the world
She had a halo of gold Told me stories of her life And the courage was sublime 'Cause you're mine, I walk the line 'Cause you're mine, lalala
Have you got a fine place to slip to When you're feeling down? Have you had a week or two Just to get your troubles down? Found a lot of life and laughter With a grandfather in the bowery She had a body of sixteen or seventeen She had a mind of forty

Tigers and elephants' teeth Elephants climb the zoo Monkeys, beggars and thieves Little orphan Annies too Everything under the sun Could be evened out ?? But if I didn't like it that way I'd have to change it Aahaah
Minn Hinsti Dans First performance by: Paul Oscar - 1997
London, París, Róm - urðu orðin tóm Gekk þann gyllta breiða, blindaður af ást Falskir kunningjar, snerust um mig einan Fékk mér kavíar, núna er allt um seinan
Því ég stíg minn hinsta dans Og ég kveð mitt líf með glans En ég iðrast aldrei neins, iðrast aldrei
Kristals kampavín, perlur postulín Demantar í matinn, ást í eftirrétt Ef ég elsk' í dag, blöðin birta á morgun Fæ mér freyðibað, drekki mínum sorgum
Og ég stíg minn hinsta dans Og þannig kveð mitt líf með glans En samt iðrast ég aldrei neins, iðrast aldrei
Allt sem ég fæ í dag, farið burt á morgun
Svo ég stíg minn hinsta dans Og þannig kveð mitt líf með glans En samt iðrast ég aldrei neins, iðrast aldrei

Some girls need emotion Some girls just want some fun Some look for devotion Some just wanna run Some crave for affection Burnin' up inside Some need the direction For the world outside
You can dance the dance 'til the mornin' comes But I'll tell you where I'm comin' from
I wanna hear your soul' talkin' wanna hear your soul' talkin' wanna hear your soul' talkin'
It's the heart of the matter It's the root of the cause It's the still of the moment It's that heavenly pause Well I don't need a savior And I don't need a slave I just want to hear you Through that magnetic wave
What I need is a link to the inner mind If you want to know my bottom line
Hallelujah, I'm A Bum Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers Performer(s): Al Jolson; and various other artists
Rockefeller's busy giving dough away Chevrolet is busy making cars Hobo, you keep busy when they throw away Slightly used cigars Hobo, you've no time to shirk You're busy keeping far away from work
Refrain
The weather's getting fine The coffee tastes like wine You happy hobo, sing "Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!" Why work away for wealth When you can travel for your health? It' s spring, you hobo, sing "Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!" Your home is always near The moon's your chandelier Your ceiling is the sky Way up high The road is your estate The earth your little dinner plate It's spring, you hobo, sing "Hallelujah, I'm a bum again!"

Hallelujah, I Love Her So Composer(s): Ray Charles Performer(s): Ray Charles;
and various other artists
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know She is my baby and she lives next door Every mornin' 'fore the sun comes up She brings me coffee in my favorite cup That's why I know, yes, I know Hallelujah, I just love her so
When I'm in trouble and I have no friend I know she'll go with me until the end Everybody asks me how I know I smile at them and say, "She told me so" That's why I know, oh, I know Hallelujah, I just love her so
Now, if I call her on the telephone And tell her that I'm all alone By the time I count from one to four I hear her [Knock-Knock-Knock-Knock] on my door
In the evening when the sun goes down When there is nobody else around She kisses me and she holds me tight And tells me, "Daddy, everything's all right" That's why I know, yes, I know Hallelujah, I just love her so
Now, if I call her on the telephone And tell her that I'm all alone By the time I count from one to four I hear her [Knock-Knock-Knock-Knock] on my door
In the evening when the sun goes down When there is nobody else around She kisses me and she holds me tight And tells me, "Daddy, everything's all right" That's why I know, yes, I know Hallelujah, I just love her so Oh, hallelujah Don't you know, I just love her so She's my little woman, waitin' all this time Babe, I'm a little fool for you, little girl...
