Squank Composer(s): Billy Gibbons - Bill Ham - Dusty Hill Performer(s): ZZ Top
Woman, grab your children, run and hide Don't let it catch up with you You gotta fight it to stay alive and if it gets you, man, you're through
It smells so rotten and rank Well, everybody calls it the squank
It's sick, depressin, gettin' bigger all the time Don't help it any way you can It's grey and brown and sometimes lime and it's spreadin' all over the land
And soon we'll be all breathin' out of tanks if somethin' ain't done about the squank
The meanest thing the world's ever bred by me and you and my kinfold too A monster can't live unless it's fed and it's being fed by me and you And soon it's gonna leave the world blank and we'll all be erased by the squank
Here Comes The Flood German Title: Jetzt Kommt Die Flut Composer(s): Peter Gabriel Performer(s): Peter Gabriel; and various other artists
When the night shows the signals grow on radios All the strange things they come and go, as early warnings Stranded starfish have no place to hide still waiting for the swollen Easter tide There's no point in direction we cannot even choose a side
I took the old track the hollow shoulder, across the waters On the tall cliffs they were getting older, sons and daughters The jaded underworld was riding high Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky and as the nail sunk in the cloud, the rain was warm and soaked the crowd
Lord, here comes the flood We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood If again the seas are silent and any still alive It'll be those who gave their island to survive Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry
When the flood calls You have no home, you have no walls In the thunder crash You're a thousand minds, within a flash Don't be afraid to cry at what you see The act is gone, there's only you and me And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be
Lord, here comes the flood We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood If again, the seas are silent and any still alive It'll be those who gave their island to survive Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry
Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenaway; Tony Macaulay Performer(s): The Fortunes; Lee Newman; Andy Williams
Here comes that rainy day feeling again and soon my tears will be falling like rain...
It always seems to be a Monday Leftover memories of Sunday always spent with you Before the clouds appeared, and took away my sunshine
Here comes that rainy day feeling again and I'll be dreaming of you baby in vain
Your face is always on my mind, girl I'm hoping you're soon gonna find, girl, your way back to me 'cause if you'll say you'll stay the rainy days will go away...
Here comes that rainy day feeling again and soon my tears will be falling like rain
Misty morning eyes, I'm trying to disguise the way I feel But I just can't hide it People seem to know, the loneliness will show I'm thinking of my pride, but breaking up inside, girl
Whoa, here comes that rainy day feeling again And soon my tears, they will be falling like rain It always seems to be a monday Left over memories of sunday, always spent with you before the clouds appeared, and took away my sunshine
Springtime Reminds Me Of You Composer(s): D. Carter - Fritz Rotter - Walter Jurmann Performer(s): Al Bowlly
The trees and the flowers bring back all those hours And the springtime reminds me of you The song of a bird recalls every word And tells of the joys we knew Though we laughed for a while, too soon we had to part And your song and your smile are forever in my heart For the blue of the skies is the blue of your eyes And the springtime reminds me of you
Here Comes That Feeling Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette; Joe Osborne Performer(s): Brenda Lee; El Perro del Mar
Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right That lonely feeling that came to me last night It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again
I saw you last night, in a drive-in way downtown Locked in her arms, you didn't know I'd be around Alone in my room, I remember where you've been Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again
I've gotta get rid of this lonely feeling (Lonely feeling) That makes me feel the way I do when a day is done (Day is done) Someday you're gonna know what it means to be lonesome (To be lonesome) You're gonna want me back while I'm having fun
Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right That lonely feeling that came to me last night It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again

Loin De Moi ((English Version: Without You (by Johnny Tillotson)) Composer(s): Johnny Tillotson - G. Aber Performer(s): Dalida
L'ennui m'enchaîne Je n'y peut rien Quoi qu'il advienne L'ennui me tient Dans la nuit je supplie, je crie et je prie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
La nuit je traîne Comme une croix Toute ma peine N'entends-tu pas C'est ma voix qui supplie, qui prie et te crie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
Je crois toujours À ton retour Au fol espoir De te revoir Plus que jamais Je veux t'aimer Alors j'attends viendras-tu? Mais quand?
L'ennuie me ronge Tout doucement Il me replonge Dans mes tourments C'est mon cur qui supplie qui prie et te crie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
Here Comes My Girl Composer(s): Mike Campbell; Tom Petty Performer(s): Tom Petty; Throneberry
You know , sometimes, I don't know why But this old town just seems so hopeless I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times Were just a little bit more in focus
But when she puts her arms around me I can, somehow, rise ab ove it Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side You know, I can tell the whole wide world, "Shove it"
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Every now and then, I get down to the end of a day I'll have to stop, ask myself, "What've I done?" It just seems so useless to have to work so hard And nothin' ever really seem to come from it
And then she looks m e in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever" And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it No, because this feels so good and so free and so right I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Yeah, every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more I find myself havin' to reach out and grab hold of somethin' Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin', waitin', worryin' About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'
And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever" And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it No, because this feels so good and so free and so right I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Springtime Promises Composer(s): Terry Cox - Bert Jansch - Jacqui McShee - John Renbourn - Danny Thompson Performer(s): Pentangle
Summertime is with us once again Flowers blooming everywhere again And the cold days of winter are behind us now And the springtime promises all come true
Trees and grass and bushes green again The sky's so blue, I don't remember when The cold days of winter took the sun away But the spring time promises all came true It's summertime now, so please don't throw it away
Winter world will be with us once again Flowers dying everywhere again And the warm days of summer will they far behind And the springtime promises soon forgot
Grass and bushes withered, and the trees are bare Dark and cloudy skies and people in despair And the warm days of summer seem so far away And the springtime promises still forgot It's wintertime so you've got to wait a while For the spring time promises to come true
Now the new born year has come once more Gentle showers are with us as before It's the time when all promises are now made true And the springtime sun returns anew
Someday all will turn to green again Flowers will burst of seeds to bloom again The warm days of springtime tell us all is past Can you feel your promises will be true It's springtime now, be happy again
On Again ... Off Again Composer(s): Philip Vella - Gerard James Borg First performance by: Julie & Ludwig - 2004
Look at me, I need some attention I'm a girl of serious intention Just like a butterfly My wings can take me high To touch your piece of sky
Though I can fly away Play cool, or run away I choose to hold your love More than one night
You're everything and nothing in one (What do you mean?) Our love goes from the north to the south (I disagree) I just can't understand anymore What we have in common
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
Why, oh why can't I live without you? How, oh how do I reach inside you? My love is justified I simply had enough I want you by my side
Am I your fantasy? Mystery? Or destiny? Do you take me for a ride? Please, tell me now
You're the air, you're the love that I breathe (That sounds so good) You're the magic that flows from within (I feel that too) We come close, then we move far away Can't we stay together?
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
There's a river between us And I need you to come across Reach out for my heart Keep this feeling so alive Love grows, we survive
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
Off again, on again Like a flickering flame That dies in the wind And lights up again Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame we can never tame On again, off again

Springtime Mama, roll it over To the road side little cover Hold me down now take me over `Till that feeling's back again

Here Comes A Man Composer(s): Jim Capaldi; Steve Winwood Performer(s): Traffic
I've heard it said people's souls chase the night Hoping for times that went before when their hearts were flying No, don't you be blue when you hear the wild birds call Oh, hold on, love, 'cause I'll never let you fall Here comes a man who'll give you all the love he can Far from the rain where you'll never feel the pain Don't cry, we'll come alive, oh, if you'll wait for me Out of my head a vision flows bathed in light Borne by the tide along the shore where the wind is sighing No, don't you be blue when you hear the music play Just hold on, love, 'cause we're gonna sail away
(refrain)
I've been coming to set you free 'cause your love belongs to me Yes, I'm going to make you mine 'till the end of time Hoping to get through and that the hailstones don't fall So hold on, love, like you never did before
