La Coco-Dance First performance by: Séverine Ferrer - 2006
Sous les caresses du soleil Entre ciel et mer oublie tes galères Et si la vie te mènes en bateau Laisse toi aller et viens danser Si tas lamour en mille morçeaux Et le cur à plat lbonheur à zéro Jai ce quil te faut pour te soigner Un ptit coup de rein bien balancé Bouge, bouge les mains le corps et les reins Laisse toi bercer jusquau bout de lété Bouge, bouge les mains le corps et les reins Sur la musique pour saimer
Eho coco-dance é upa upa aroha (ého coco-dance cest la musique de lamour) Eho coco-dance é ori aroha (ého coco-dance cest la danse de lamour)
Tahiti aux îles du vent Le sable doré sur ma peau bronzé On est bien plus prêt du paradis Pour aller danser le tamouret Bouge, bouge les mains le corps et les reins Laisse toi bercer jusquau bout de lété Bouge, bouge les mains le corps et les reins Sur la musique pour saimer
Eho coco-dance é upa upa aroha (ého coco-dance cest la musique de lamour) Eho coco-dance é ori aroha (ého coco-dance cest la danse de lamour)
Ta tohara ori i te (rejoingnez nous pour danser) Ta tohara ori i te (rejoingnez nous pour danser)

Can't go home if you're going by the mill 'Cause the bridge' washed out at the bottom of the hill Big Creek's up, Little Creek's level Plow my corn with a double shovel
Stay all night, stay a little longer Dance all night, dance a little longer Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner Don't see why you can't stay a little longer
Sitting in the window, singing to my love Slop bucket fell from the window up above Mule and the grasshopper eatin ice cream mule got sick, so they laid him on the green
You ought to see my Blue Eyed Sally She lives way down on Shinbone Alley Number on the gate, the number on the door The next house over is the grocery store
Grab your partner, pat her on the head If she don't like biscuits, feed her cornbread Girls around Big Creek, 'bout half grown Jump on a man like a dog on a bone
Open your box Open your box Open your trousers Open your thighs Open your legs Open, open, open, open, oooh Open, open, open, open Open your legs Open your flies Open your ears Open your nose Open your mouth Open, open, open, open, oooh Open Open your cold feet Open, open Open, open, open, let's open, let's open the cities Open the cites Open, open, open the world Open, let's open the world Open, open, oooh Open, open, ooh!

Hippo Stomp Composer(s): Larry Byrom; John Kay Performer(s): Steppenwolf
If I should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody would know me But if I don't believe I can and still say "Hear my plan" Somebody would follow just because it's free
We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slidin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the hippo stomp Hey! Hey! You should try it when you're feelin' blue
If you should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody will know you But if you don't believe you can and still say "I'm your man" Somebody will follow just because it's free
We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slindin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around You stop and watch me while you're out on your midnite romp And I can feel the silent question What the heck is the Hippo Stomp?
Let me answer you and let me tell ya true Just how I feel when I'm down Sometimes I wonder You'll see me stumblin' around But you just point and stare Come on let me hear ya Somewhere there's a voice down inside And when you find it let it teach you how to ask the question "why" Just because we live together We don't have to like each other So please don't fall asleep on me again Nobody, nobody, nobody knows for sure You just might never wake up from the dream Hey! Speak up let me hear ya Let me show you 'round the reservation I know my way around these parts I've lived here long enough Now you can have a taste, an indication Of things and times to come
If you should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody will know you But if you don't believe you can and still say "I'm your man" Somebody will follow just because it's free
Early in the morning, late at night Somebody seems to know just how this thing work's right 'Cause every time I come around the corner somebody's looking out my door He's been snoopin' like a hound I'll grab his neck and shake him on down
We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slindin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around

Hippie From Olema Composer(s): Lowell Levinger Performer(s): The Youngbloods
Well Im proud to be a hippie from Olema Where were friendly to the squares and all the straights We still take in strangers if theyre ragged We cant think of anyone to hate
We dont watch commercials in Olema We dont buy the plastic crap they sell We still wear our hair long like folks used to And we bathe often, therefore we dont smell
Well Im proud to be a hippie from Olema Where were friendly to the squares and all the straights We still take in strangers if theyre ragged We cant think of anyone to hate
We dont throw our beer cans on the highway We dont slide a man because hes black We dont spill our oil out in the ocean Cause we love birds and fish too much for that
And Im proud to be a hippie from Olema Where were friendly to the squares and all the straights We still take in strangers if theyre Haggard In Olema, California, Planet Earth

Hippie Boy Composer(s): Chris Hillman; Gram Parsons Performer(s): The Flying Burrito Brothers
I was walking down the street the other day And a sight came before my eyes It was a little hippie boy, I must have been twice his size His appearence typified his strange breed Gaudy clothes, long stringy hair hanging down I'd seen perhaps a thousand in my early trips to town As he walked beside me on down the block I noticed no unpleasing smell He might have been on the weed or even LSD But if he was I couldn't tell So we walked together that way through this neighborhood Finally he turned around to me And he said friend, you know we're a million miles apart But you know something we can enjoy the sunshine and the weather So why don't we put our differences aside And just talk to each other You see this box beneath my arm To you it's plain, it has no charm But to someone dearest to my heart this box has played a tragic part This little one can't tell you himself about his life and how he died But if anyone else could speak for him I guess I'm qualified This boy was in Chicago, he didn't know why he was there He was with his family and friends and he didn't really care You might have been one of those Who saw the struggle there on your television screen The tragic thing is so much else happened That no one else could have seen A stranger handed this boy a dollar to do a simple chore To carry a package to a nearby hotel And when he returned he'd get two more But when he came back he sort of lost his way walking thru the crowd One of them things you ask yourself, how the Lord allowed But when he was found he was like he is now Dreaming sweet and still And in his little hand was a crumpled dollar bill Now you can take that dollar Get four cents on it compound it quarterly at any downtown bank So they can back some hot new tank or atom bomb Well, what I'm going to tell you now, you can stay or you can leave You kind of listened to my story so far but just one more thing It's the same for any hippie, bum or hillbilly out on the street Just remember this little boy and never carry more than you can eat Now could you help us sing this song, please There will be peace in the valley for him now we pray I will think of the little hippie boy that way
Hush Baby Hush ((Adapted from: Stay (by Maurice Williams & The Zodiacs) - 1960)) (Italian Version: Resta - 1966) Composer(s): Maurice Williams - Buju Banton Performer(s): Buju Banton - 1995

Hip To Be Square Composer(s): Bill Gibson; Sean Hopper; Huey Lewis Performer(s): Huey Lewis & The News; Barry Williams
I used to be a renegade, I used to fool around But I couldn't take the punishment, and had to settle down Now I'm playing it real straight, and yes I cut my hair You might think I'm crazy, but I don't even care Because I can tell what's going on It's hip to be square I like my bands in business suits, I watch them on TV I'm working out most everyday and watching what I eat They tell me that it's good for me, but I don't even care I know that it's crazy I know that it's nowhere But there is no denying that It's hip to be square It's not too hard to figure out, you see it everyday And those that were the farthest out have gone the other way You see them on the freeway It don't look like a lot of fun But don't you try to fight it "An idea who's time has come" Don't tell me that I'm crazy Don't tell me I'm nowhere Take it from me It's hip to be square

Hino De Duran Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Se tu falas muitas palavras sutis E gostas de senhas, sussurros, ardis A lei tem ouvidos pra te delatar Nas pedras do teu próprio lar
Se trazes no bolso a contravenção Muambas, baganas e nem um tostão A lei te vigia, bandido infeliz Com seus olhos de raio-x
Se vives nas sombras, frequentas porões Se tramas assaltos ou revoluções A lei te procura amanhaã de manhã Com seu faro de dobermann
E se definitivamente a sociedade só se tem Desprezo e horror E mesmo nas galeras és nocivo És um estorvo, és um tumor A lei fecha o livro, te pregam na cruz E depois chamam os urubus
Se pensas que burlas as normas penais Insuflas, agitas e gritas demais A lei logo vai te abraçar, infrator Com seus braços de estivador Se pensas que pensas (etc.)
Through My Window Composer(s): Alar Kotkas - Ilmar Laisaar - Pearu Paulus - Jana Hallas First performance by: Sandra Oxenryd - 2006
When life is a road goin' nowhere I'm alone, though you're gonna be right here You're my baby When life is a road goin' somewhere All alone, I have to hold on to go on
I'm lookin' through my window What about the sun you made shine? What about the rain you cried on my pillow?
I'm lookin' through my window What about us? Tell me why I still can't see where's the rainbow
And maybe somebody someday Turns back home, but it's gonna be a long way It's been a long day And maybe somebody someway Highs and lows, it's always the same thing anyway
I'm lookin' through my window What about the sun you made shine? What about the rain you cried on my pillow?
I'm lookin' through my window What about us? Tell me why I still can't see where's the rainbow
I can't find the words, lose my nerve And grass just turns to stone (Grass just turns to stone) When all hopes are high, I have my pride Show you what I'm really like inside
(I'm lookin' through my window) What about the sun you made shine? What about the rain you cried on my pillow?
I'm lookin' through my window What about us? Tell me why I still can't see where's the rainbow
I'm lookin' through my window What about us? Tell me why I still can't see where's the rainbow I still can't see where's the rainbow
Se atiras mendigos No imundo xadrez Com teus inimigos E amigos, talvez A lei tem motivos Pra te confinar Nas grades do teu próprio lar
Se no teu distrito Tem farta sessão De afogamento, chicote Garrote e punção A lei tem caprichos O que hoje é banal Um dia vai dar no jornal
Se manchas as praças Com teus esquadrões Sangrando ativistas Cambistas, turistas, peões A lei abre os olhos A lei tem pudor E espeta o seu próprio inspetor
E se definitivamente a sociedade só te tem desprezo e horror E mesmo nas galeras és nocivo, és um estorvo, és um tumor Que Deus te proteja És preso comum Na cela faltava esse um
Station To Station Composer(s): David Bowie First release by: David Bowie - 1976
The return of the Thin White Duke Throwing darts in lovers' eyes Here are we, one magical moment, such is the stuff From where dreams are woven Bending sound, dredging the ocean, lost in my circle Here am I, flashing no colour Tall in this room overlooking the ocean
Here are we, one magical movement from Kether to Malkuth There are you, you drive like a demon from station to station The return of the Thin White Duke, throwing darts in lovers' eyes The return of the Thin White Duke, throwing darts in lovers' eyes The return of the Thin White Duke, making sure white stains
Once there were mountains on mountains And once there were sunbirds to soar with And once I could never be down Got to keep searching and searching Oh, what will I be believing and who will connect me with love? Wonder *who*, wonder who, wonder when Have you sought fortune, evasive and shy? Drink to the men who protect you and I Drink, drink, drain your glass, raise your glass high
Two Times: It's not the side-effects of the cocaine I'm thinking that it must be love It's too late - to be grateful It's too late - to be late again It's too late - to be hateful The European cannon is here
I must be only one in a million I won't let the day pass without her It's too late - to be grateful It's too late - to be late again It's too late - to be hateful The European cannon is here
Should I believe that I've been stricken? Does my face show some kind of glow? It's too late - to be grateful It's too late - to be late again It's too late - to be hateful The European cannon is here, yes it's here It's too late
It's too late, it's too late, it's too late, it's too late The European cannon is here
Hindustan Composer(s): Oliver G. Wallace; Harold Weeks
Camel trappings jingle, harp strings sweetly tingle with a sweet voice mingle, underneath the stars singing memories are bringing
temple bells are ringing calling me a far
Shades of night are falling, nightingales are calling every heart enthralling, underneath the stars Sighing, like the night wind dying, soft my heart is crying for my love afar
Hindustan, where we stopped to rest our tired caravan Hindustan, where the painted peacock spread his fan Hindustan, where the purple sunbird flashed across the sand, Hindustan, where I met her and the world began
Why Angels Cry Composer(s): Peter Yiannakis First performance by: Annet Artani - 2006
When I'm feeling down in this world of madness You comfort all my sadness, you soothe away my pain 'Cause these are trying times, filled with so much sorrow I wonder if tomorrow will bring a brighter day
Why do the angels cry? Why doesn't love survive? Why do we all just pretend? Why do the angels cry? Innocent children die When will it all ever end? Ever end?
Close your eyes and dream, and visualise a rainbow Oh... a place where you can pray for peace and harmony
Search your heart and find a higher meaning Let this be the start, a brand new beginning
Oh... talking 'bout peace and harmony Oh...
(Why do the angels cry?) Why do they cry? (Why doesn't love survive?) (Why do we all) just pretend? Why do the angels cry? Innocent children die When will it all ever end? Ever end?
