A Friend Of Mine
Composer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan



Good morning Mary Ann
And how are you upon this bright
And sunny morning
I hear your brother Ted
Got caught for speeding
But was let off with a warning
I hope he's learnt his lesson
And the next time he goes out will drive with care
It doesn't pay to drive too fast
All it does is make your life last shorter

I know you won't believe this
But it happens to be true
I am a loner
My only real companion is dog I'm very fond of
His name's Homer
He follows me wherever I go
And of course I do my best to feed him
It's not the easiest of tasks
When you consider unlike cats
They're broader

Do what you want to within reason
But remember take your time
Nothing stops for those
Who can't afford to wait
The best advice that I can give you
Is to hold on to your head
And as long as you are good and kind
You'll always be a friend of mine
And it's true to say that a good friend is hard to find
But I'd like to think that you are
A friend of mine
 
Good morning Sarah Jane
And how are you today
Tell me is that your mother
She looks a lot like you
Though come to think of it
You look like one another
It's funny how with likenesses
Most people have a difference of opinion
They said that I was like my dad
Now they say that I'm just like his daughter
 
Do what you want to within reason
But remember take your time
Nothing stops for those
Who can't afford to wait
The best advice that I can give you
Is to hold on to your head
And as long as you are good and kind
You'll always be a friend of mine
 
You'll always be a friend of mine 
As long as you are good and kind 
You'll always be a friend of mine 
A friend in need is a friend indeed 
You'll always be a friend of mine 

You're Breaking My Heart
Composer(s): Pat Genaro; Sunny Skylar
Performer(s): Vic Damone;
and various other artists



You're breaking my heart 'cause you're leaving
You've fallen for somebody new
It isn't too easy believing
You'd leave after all we've been through
It's breaking my heart to remember
The dreams we depended upon
You're leaving a slow dying ember
I'll miss you, my love, when you're gone
I wish you joy, though teardrops burn
But if some day you should want to return
Please hurry back and we'll make a new start, dear
Till then you're breaking my heart

(Instrumental Interlude)

I wish you joy, though teardrops burn
But if some day you should want to return
Please hurry back and we'll make a new start, dear
Till then you're breaking my heart

A Friend I Call Desire
Composer(s): Warren Cann / Chris Cross / Billy Currie / Midge Ure)
Performer(s): Ultravox



You live for love, I long for it
You give for love, I take from it
This friend of mine, desire
This lovers crime, desire
Emotion driving all the time
A burning need for things not mine
Desire

You need your love
I walk from it
You fight for love
I run from it
My enemy desire
Caressing me, desire
The torch I carried burnt my hand
I can't control what I can't stand
Desire

You give for love, I lie for it
You give for love, I shy from it
And the pain, and the lust, and the want
And the hurt, and the lies
And the fears, and the urge, and the feel
And the touch, and it's all
A friend I call desire

You give for love, I lie for it
You give for love, I shy from it
And the pain, and the lies
And the touch, and it's all
A friend I call desire

You're Breaking My Heart
Composer(s): H.H. Melka
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; Claude King



The clothes that I wear are shabby and old
While you run around just spending my gold
Each night I’m alone, we’re drifting apart
You’re treating me wrong
You’re Breaking My Heart

You’ve shattered my hopes, my dreams are all gone
My life is so bare, how can I go on
You never will change it’s to late to start
You’re treating me wrong 
You’re Breaking My Heart

Ah Billy Bird now
Instrumentals

Now once I was free, the one of your dreams
But now that I am yours you don’t want me it seems
The things you have done, helped dive us apart
You’re treating me wrong
You’re Breaking My Heart

I could have been gay, life could have been grand
If you only you cared, if you’d understand
You never will change it’s to late to start
You’re treating me wrong
You’re Breaking My Heart

Frenchman For The Night
Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett - Roger Guth
Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett; Nadirah Shakoor



From his driftwood castle
Comes a song I've heard before
A scratchy gramophone cuts to the bone
"La Vie En Rose" arpeggios
So the dream begins
And the song is amplified
Buy the Beaujolais, on Bastille day
He dances in the tide

By the light of the moon
He's a Frenchman for the night
By the light of the moon
It'll be all right

Well it takes him back
To the days of love and war
And the girl he knew with eyes of blue
Waiting on the shore
If he'd only known
How the years would fly on by
Such a simple crime, he's run out of time
So he reaches for the sky

Blame it on the Champs Élysees
Blame it on a tune
Blame it on the stroke of Monet
But you can't escape the moon

He sees the stars above
As the floor to heavens light
While the angels taunt "C'est une nuit blanche"
He's a Frenchman for the night

From a driftwood castle
Comes a song I've heard before
A scratchy gramophone cuts to the bone
"La Vie En Rose" arpeggios

You're Breakin' My Heart
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
Performer(s): Harry Nilsson



You're breakin' my heart
You're tearing it apart so fuck you

All I want to do is have a good time now I'm blue
You won't boogaloo,
Run down to Tramps, have a dance or two, ooohhh
You're breakin' my heart,
You're tearing it apart but fuck you

You're breakin' my heart
You're tearing it apart, boo-hoo

You stepped on my ass
You're breakin' my glasses too
You won't drive my car, might be a star
I've had enough of you
I'm goin' insane
There's no one to blame so fuck you

Instrumental break #1

You can't have your way
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to do, ooooohhh
You're breakin' my heart
You're tearing it apart so fuck you

Instrumental break #2

You gotta have your way
There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to do, ooooowww
You're breakin' my heart
You're tearing it apart but I love you

A Free Thinker
Composer(s): Laura Nyro
Performer(s): Laura Nyro



You don't have your own
You're livin' thru others
Toss and turn at night
but you play it demure
and what's more
you don't think you've got the right
to be a free thinker
You could give yourself the right
You could shine your special light

Are you a consumer
A mere number
on a supermarket line?
wear a perfect mask
and never show your feelings
maybe you can make the time
To be a free thinker
You could find your own style
You may feel more alive

Do you ever wonder
Can we save our planet
and where will it go in time?
White hawks destroy
And healers send joy
back to the starry nite line
for a free thinker
with some individuality
you may find you feel more free

You're An Old Smoothie
Composer(s): Buddy De Sylva
Richard Whiting; Nacio Herb Brown
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald;
and various other artists



You're an old smoothie
I'm an old softie
I'm just like putty
In the hands of a girl like you

You're an old meanie
I'm a big boobie
I just go nutty
In the hands of a girl like you

Poor me, you played me for a sap
Poor you, you thought you'd laid a trap
Well dear, I think it's time you knew
You've done just what I wanted you to

Silly old smoothie
Crafty old softie
I'll stick like putty
To the hand of a girl like you

A Four-Legged Friend
Composer(s): Jack Brooks
Performer(s): Roy Rogers
and multiple other artists



A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend
He'll never let you down
He's honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend

A woman's like cactus and cactus can hurt
'Cause she's just a tight-waisted winky-eyed flirt
She'll soon have your land and your pride and your gold
And bury you deep long before you grow old

A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend
He'll never let you down
He's honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend

A two legged hombre is worthless as sand
He'll smile like a saint with a gun in his hand
He'll promise to stick by your side like a pal
But he'll also promise the same to your gal

A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend
He'll never let you down
He's honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend

Who carries your burden, who carries your load
On tumbleweed land or a long dusty road
Who asks you no questions, who tells you no lies
That four-legged friend with the two honest eyes

A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend
He'll never let you down
He's honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful four-legged friend

That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend

You're An Education
Composer(s): Al Dubin; Harry Warren
Performer(s): Michael Feinstein;
Bob Crosby; Three Symphonettes



Must I memorise a book
To be considered wise
When I can look into your eyes

Literature is such a bore
And mathematics too
I'd much prefer to learn about you....

You're the only kind of knowledge
They don't teach at any college
You're an education in yourself

There are poems and romances
In the glamour of your glances
You're an education in yourself

Of all the famous dates in hist'ry
I recall but a few
The fourth of July
And my dates with you

You've a kiss that's scientific
Tho' it's tender, it's terrific
You're an education in yourself

You're the kind of mental training
I could take without complaining
You're an education in yourself

Intricate as economics
Simple as the Sunday comics
You're an education in yourself

And there are geometric figures
In your beautiful curves
They're good on the eyes
But bad on the nerves

You are my encycloped'yuh
Let me take you home and read yuh
You're an education in yourself

A Foto Da Capa
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque



O retrato do artista quando moço
Não é promissora, cândida pintura
É a figura do larápio rastaqüera
Numa foto que não era para capa
Uma pose para câmera tão dura
Cujo foco toda lírica solapa

Era rala a luz naquele calabouço
Do talento a clarabóia se tampara
E o poeta que ele sempre se soubera
Claramente não mirava algum futuro
Via o tira da sinistra que rosnara
E o fotógrafo frontal batendo a chapa

É uma foto que não era para capa
Era a mera contracara, a face obscura
O retrato da paúra quando o cara
Se prepara para dar a cara a tapa

You're All Woman
Composer(s): Clarke; Vale; Hicks
Performer(s): The Hollies



I'm uptight, gotta give a little
slow down, take my time
Ease up, learn to relax a little
So close, so close
I'm shakin', shakin' with expectation
Breathless, outta time
Lips dry, feels like my heart is burstin'
So close, so close

Smooth as silk but sharp as a knife
Hotter than hell but cooler than ice
Hard as steel but soft with your touch
Take luck to the limit but don't ask too much
You're all woman, you're all woman
You're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my mind

Panic, I'm on the verge of breakdown
Half crazed, lost control, need you to kill my affection
So close, so close
Helpless, holding out for rescue
Gunned down, one more time
Breakthrough, gotta try to reach you
So close, so close

chorus

Woman, woman

Hard as steel but soft with your touch
Take luck to the limit but don't ask too much
You're all woman, you're all woman
You're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my woman
Woman, you're all woman
So close, so close
To losing my woman
You're all woman, you're all woman

A Fool's Fantasy
Composer(s): Goldy McJohn
Performer(s): Steppenwolf



Slip away with me
Let our ears be free
Live a life of love
There's no need to care
Sharin' it together
Whatcha got to lose?
In love and life, it's all you get
It's easy to choose

There's a way for love
We can make it work
There's a way for love
A fool's fantasy
Is that so much to ask for?
Everything we're dreamed about
Could be ours forevermore

Take a chance on freedom
Come take a chance on me
We'll drown ourselves in pleasure
Just happy to be
Without inhibitions and nothing to fear
We'll while away the summer sun
Nibblin' on an ear

You're All Too Ugly Tonight
Composer(s): Buzz Cason; Dan Penn
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis



Yeah you're all too ugly tonight
Why there ain't a decent one in sight
You won't win no ribbon 
You can't win no prize
You're all too ugly tonight
You're all as ugly you can't believe
Go ahead, get up off your old rusty knees
The answer is no I gotta better place to go
You're all too ugly tonight
So mama put on another pot of coffee
Put those little babies to bed
You know the crazies and the freaks
You won't believe whats on the streets
I'm comming on home to you instead!
'Cause the're all too ugly tonight
Why there ain't a decent one in sight
You can't win no ribbon
No way to win no prize
You're all too ugly tonight
So put on another pot of coffee
Put those precious babies to bed
Why the crazies and the freaks
Girl you won't believe whats on the streets
I'm comming on home mama to you instead!
'Cause the're all as ugly as sin
Why even dracula wouldn't be caught with on them!
Outstanding in the field
Of things that are unreal
It's all too ugly tonight
It's all too ugly tonight!

A Fool Says
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): Pete Townshend



Hogarth:
A fool
Says love is like a melody
Or something like a symphony
But this is cacophony
Never changing key

We
We can't fool our audience
We put up such a poor pretense
Don't hide a shred of evidence
We have no defense

Woodland Creatures:
A fool says
Love is foolproof

Hogarth:
A fool says . . . .
We
We can't fool our audience
We put up such a poor pretense
Don't hide a shred of evidence
We have no defense

Woodland Creatures:
A fool says
Love is foolproof 

You're All The World To Me
Composer(s): Burton Lane; Alan Jay Lerner
Performer(s): Fred Astaire;
and various other artists



Everywhere that beauty glows, you are
Everywhere an orchid grows, you are
Everything that's young and gay, brighter than a holiday
Everywhere the angels fly, you are

You're like Paris in April and May
You're New York on a silvery day
A Swiss alp as the sun grows fainter
You're Loch Lomond when Autumn is the painter

You're moonlight on a night in Capri
And Cape Cod looking out at the sea
You're all places that leave me breathless
And no wonder you're all the world to me

You're Lake Como when dawn is a glow
You're Sun Valley right after a snow
A museum, a Persian palace
You're my shining Aurora Borealis

You're like Christmas at home by a tree
The blue calm of a tropical sea
You're all places that leave me breathless
And no wonder, you're all the world to me

A Fool No More
Composer(s): Peter Green
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac; Kim Lembo



Yes, I've packed up my clothes
I'm moving away from your door
Lord, I've packed up my clothes
Said, I'm moving away from your door
I've been your fool for so long
Babe, I won't play that fool no more

I gave you all my money
I work as hard as I can
I came home early one morning
I found you with another man
Babe, I've packed up my clothes
I'm moving away from your door
Said, I've been your fool for so long
And Lord, I won't play that fool no more

So good-bye baby
you don't even care
Yes, I had a love so strong for you
but you treat me so unfair
Said, I've packed up my clothes
I'm moving away from your door
You know, I've been your fool for so long
And babe, I won't play that fool no more

You're All I've Got Tonight
Composer(s): Ric Ocasek
Performer(s): The Cars;
The New Cars; The Smashing Pumpkins



I don't care if you hurt me some more
I don't care if you even the score
You can knock me and I don't care
You can mock me and I don't care
You can rock me just about anywhere
It's alright
'Cus you're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
You're all I've got tonight
I need you tonight
I don't care if you use me again
I don't care if you abuse me again
You can make me I don't care
You can fake me I don't care
You can love me just about anywhere
It's alright
I don't want to feel sorry for you
You don't have to make believe it's you
You can pump me I don't care
You can bump me I don't care
You can love me just about anywhere
It's alright

A Fool In Love
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Performer(s): Randy Newman



Look at the light coming over me
Show me a man who's gentle and kind
And I’ll show you a loser
Now, show me a man who takes what he wants
Ohhhhhhhhh how exciting
Ohhhhhhhhh how exciting
So the poet sings

When you’re a fool in love
And nothing goes the way you plan
And no one cares and no one understands
That you’re a fool and you’re in love
Never another spring for you,
Never a robin to sing for you,
You’re out there on your own
When you’re a fool in love

When you’re a fool in love
Seems like the skies are always grey
You turn around there's someone in your way
And it’s you, and you’re in love
Sometimes you think that your luck has changed
And a rainbow explodes ’cross the sky
But when you’re a fool in love
You’ll be a fool ’til the day you die

You're All I Need To Get By
Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford
Performer(s): Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell;
and various other artists



You're all I need to get by
Like the sweet morning dew, I took one look at you
And it was plain to see
you were my destiny 
With my arms open wide
I threw away my pride
I'll sacrifice for you
Dedicate my life for you
I will go where you lead
Always there in time of need
And when I lose my will
You'll be there to push me up the hill
There's no, no looking back for us
We got love sure 'nough, that's enough
You're all 
You're
All I need to get by
All, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one
You're all
You're all I need to get by

You're all I need to get by
Like an eagle protects his nest, for you I'll do my best
Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me
Darling in you I found
Strength where I was torn down
Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door
Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher
I know you can make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goal
Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination
You're all
You're All I need to get by
All, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one
You're all
You're all I need to get by
