    How To Get Depressed
    Composer(s): Bob Lind
    Performer(s): Bob Lind



    Beginning with the basics, you sit right down
    And give a lot of thought to yourself
    If any higher value should cross your mind
    Consider the state of your health
    Think of what that strange little cough could mean
    And what you should have said to that jerk
    Start with the assumption that something's wrong
    And anything you think of will work
    Make a list of who's slighted you
    And all the things it's too late to do
    Think of all your mistakes
    And how little difference you make
    You're halfway there

    Don't be like the amateurs who waste their time
    Counting up the bad breaks they've known
    Use your time efficiently and call to mind
    All of the good breaks you've blown
    Think of all those chances for happiness
    Chances that only knock once
    Watch the clock and remind yourself
    How the days keep turning to months
    Judge people that you never met
    Watch the news every chance you get
    Spend your mornings inside
    Keep defending your pride
    You're almost there

    Think about those sneaky middle-eastern creeps
    Think about your backstabbing friends
    Sit around remembering the good old days
    Life was so much simpler then
    If right now someone's heart is reaching out to you
    Shut it hard away from your mind
    You know you're prob'ly too cool for her
    He's gonna suck up your time
    Think of Hemingway, Monroe and van Gogh
    Remind yourself of how the great ones go
    Geniuses don't ask for help
    You're kind of brilliant yourself
    There you are

    A New Love
    Composer(s): Dave Loggins
    Performer(s): Reba McEntire



    Love’s the only thing I know in this life
    That’s cut me deeper than the sharpest knife
    And once again here I am and I’m paying the price for a new love
    I still hurt the one I lost
    Standing here on a bridge that I can’t get across
    And I can’t burn but I will when I walk with a new love

    I believe
    It’s gonna be better then ever before
    Thats why I’m looking for
    A new love
    For this old heart
    A new love
    And I just can’t wait to start
    I wanna feel that way again
    Oh when I find a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Say I’m looking for a new love
    Somebody tell me where I find a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Love’s the only thing that’s ever made me cry
    Nothing’s ever made me feel more alive
    Thats why once again here I am
    Looking for the eyes of a new love

    I know that somewhere in this world tonight
    There’s a guy (she goes high on this part and I have no clue what she says)
    I’d even look if I thought I might find a new love

    I believe
    It’s gonna be better then ever before
    Thats why I’m looking for
    A new love
    For this old heart
    A new love
    And I just can’t wait to start
    I wanna feel that way again
    Oh when I find a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    I believe
    It’s gonna be better then ever before
    Thats why I’m looking for
    A new love
    For this old heart
    A new love
    And I just can’t wait to start
    I wanna feel that way again
    Oh when I find a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Oh I’m looking for a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Oh I’m looking for a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Say I need a new love
    For this old heart of mine

    Oh I’m looking for a new love
    Somebody tell me where I’ll find
    For this old heart of mine

    How To Catch A Man
    Composer(s): Cy Coben; Minnie Pearl
    Performer(s): Minnie Pearl



    Now, when a handsome feller smiles at you
    What harm can a little flirtin' do?
    And if he steals a kiss, now don't get sore
    Remember, you've got plenty more!

    How to catch a man, how to catch a man
    Girls are always askin' me
    "How do you catch a man?"
    Catch him while you can
    With the Minnie Pearl plan
    Here's a little tip on how to catch a man

    Hog-tie him!

    Tell him this and keep a straight face, hon
    Tell him two can live as cheap as one!
    Promise him anything, and you will find
    That after you are married, you can change your mind!

    How to catch a man, how to catch a man
    Girls are always askin' me
    "How do you catch a man?"
    Catch him while you can
    With the Minnie Pearl plan
    Here's a little tip on how to catch a man

    Get a Bear trap!

    A New Fangled Tango
    Composer(s): Matt Dubey - Harold Karr
    Performer(s): Ethel Merman
    and multiple other artists



    Everybody's mambo crazy
    Cha-cha happy, but I'm lazy
    I don't dig that frantic turpsichord

    When I trip the light fantastic
    I don't wanna be gymnastic
    That's not what a dancing floor is for

    What I got in mind is a big improvement
    With a very minimum amount of movement
    Let the other couples push and shove
    What I got in mind I think you're gonna love

    I got a new-fangled tango
    And there's nothing to it
    You just sort of stand there
    And just sort of do it

    You stand close together
    There's no wasted motion
    A new fangled tango
    An old fashioned motion

    The floor may be crowded
    But that doesn't matter
    It's not necessary to move
    Don't move, why move

    It may be crowded
    But that's all the better
    It's just like romancing, while dancing
    Who's dancin'

    You start off with one step
    And cling to each other
    And you know how one step
    Can lead to another

    Oh, there's nothing wrong with
    A waltz or fandango
    But oh, what can come from
    A new fangled tango

    You cling to your partner
    And sway to the rhythm
    You can't lose your partner
    'Cause you're right there with him

    You don't have to be worry
    About fast or slow steps
    The nice part about it
    In this dance, you don't need steps

    You don't have to worry
    If your dancing won't do
    It's not what you do do
    It's more what you don't do

    You don't need a waltz
    Or a fancy fandango
    You just need a man
    And a new fangled tango

    Forget the fandango
    Give up the mambo
    Do the tango

    How The Time Flies
    Composer(s): Tommy Coe
    Performer(s): Jerry Wallace



    dickey-doo-oo-oo-oo) (dickey-doo-oo-oo-oo)
    (dickey-doo-oo-oo) (locka-day-ay)

    How the time flies
    When I'm near you
    When I'm near you
    How the time flies

    Seems like heaven
    When I'm near you
    When I'm near you
    How the time flies

    Wonder why when we're alone
    The hours always pass so fast
    A kiss or two and then you're gone
    Gee, the time just doesn't last

    If the night would never pass
    And the sun would never rise
    Not one moment would we waste
    But, darling, how the time, it flies

    How the time flies
    When I'm near you
    When I'm near you
    How the ti-i-i-ime flies

    (dickey-doo-oo-oo-oo) (dickey-doo-oo-oo-oo)
    (dickey-doo-oo-oo) (locka-day-ay)

    How the time flies
    When I'm near you
    When I'm near you
    How the ti-i-i-ime flies

    (How the ti-ime flies)

    A New England
    Composer(s): Billy Bragg
    First release by: Billy Bragg - 1983
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song
    I'm twenty-two now, but I won't be for long
    People ask me when will I grow up to understand
    Why the girls I knew at school are already pushing prams

    I loved you then as I love you still
    Though I put you on a pedestal, you put me on the pill
    I don't feel bad about letting you go
    I just feel sad about letting you know

    I don't want to change the world
    I'm not looking for a new england
    Are you looking for another girl

    I loved the words you wrote to me
    But that was bloody yesterday
    I can't survive on what you send
    Every time you need a friend

    I saw two shooting stars last night
    I wished on them, but they were only satellites
    It's wrong to wish on space hardware
    I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care

    I don't want to change the world
    I'm not looking for a new england
    Are you looking for another girl

    My dreams were full of strange ideas
    My mind was set despite the fears
    But other things got in the way
    I never asked that boy to stay

    Once upon a time at home
    I sat beside the telephone
    Waiting for someone to pull me through
    When at last it didn't ring, I knew it wasn't you

    I don't want to change the world
    I'm not looking for a new england
    Are you looking for another girl

    How sweet you are
    How sweet you are
    How dear your tenderly smiling face
    Through days all bitter and gray and grim
    Through nights when even the stars are dim
    How sweet to know my heart can glow
    From just the warmth of our first embrace
    The world’s a lovelier place by far
    When I remember how sweet you are

    How sweet to know my heart can glow
    From just the warmth of our first embrace

    Composer(s): Ian Anderson
    Performer(s): Jethro Tull



    My first and last time with you
    and we had some fun
    Went walking through the trees, yeah!
    And then I kissed you once
    Oh I want to see you soon
    but I wonder how
    It was a new day yesterday
    but it's an old day now

    Spent a long time looking
    for a game to play
    My luck should be so bad now
    to turn out this way
    Oh I had to leave today
    just when I thought I'd found you
    It was a new day yesterday
    But it's an old day now

    How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)
    Composer(s): Lamont Dozier; B. Holland; Eddie Holland
    Performer(s): James Taylor



    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
    I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
    With sweet love and devotion
    Deeply touching my emotion
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I just want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    I close my eyes at night
    Wondering where would I be without you in my life
    Everything I did was just a bore
    Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
    But you brighten up for me all of my days
    With a love so sweet in so many ways
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I just want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    You were better for me than I was for myself
    For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
    I want to stop and thank you baby
    I just want to stop and thank you baby

    How sweet it is to be loved by you
    How sweet it is to be loved by you

    Marion Michael Morrison
    Composer(s): C.W. Kalb Jr.
    Performer(s): Ray Stevens



    He was born in the little farming town of Winterset
    On The New Frontier, a mid-west native son
    But his star would shine as bright as any star can ever get
    And he would Cast A Giant Shadow before he was done

    Tall In The Saddle, he went to Reap The Wild Wind
    In Old California and across the Rio Grande
    From Stagecoach on The Big Trail to Rio Bravo and back again
    He rode on Wings Of Eagles, this Quiet Man

    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison
    Here's to you for all our battles that you fought and won
    A true American hero, a straight-shootin' son-of-a-gun
    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison

    Singin' Sandy, Sergeant Stryker, McLintock and McQ
    Katie's Elder Son and Big Jim McLean
    Brannigan and Rooster, Hondo and Big Jake
    Yeah, we knew him by a hundred different names

    On the Sands Of Iwo Jima, Back To Bataan
    The Flying Tigers and The Green Berets
    He was with The Fighting Seabees and ev'ry American fighting man
    At The Alamo and on that Longest Day

    And here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison
    Here's to you for all our battles that you fought and won
    A true American hero, a straight-shootin' son-of-a-gun
    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison

    There might be a few who would dare to say
    The star you hung might fade away
    But I can hear you tell 'em
    "Pilgrim, that'll be the day"

    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison
    Here's to you for all our battles that you fought and won
    A true American hero, a straight-shootin' son-of-a-gun
    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison

    Here's to you, Marion Michael Morrison

    How soon will I be seeing you?
    How soon?
    I wish I really knew
    And when will you be saying words I want to hear?
    Tender little love words story old, meaning clear

    How soon will I be close to you?
    And dance the way we used to do
    I see your star eyes gleaming
    Don't mind me if I'm dreaming
    Tell me, darling, now
    How soon?

    A New Day
    Composer(s): Killing Joke
    Performer(s): Killing Joke



    You
    You wake up to a new day
    Forwards
    We move towards a new way oh
    Come with me
    Gather with your torches
    Singing
    Dance by night we all are strong

    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new way...oh, a new way
    Somewhere the sun shines in the east
    A new day....oh, a new day

    Touch me
    Tell me I'm still human
    And wild
    We'll run until we run ??run long??
    Our bodies talk, words are lost
    Hand in hand we follow
    All around
    A man becomes the people

    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new way...oh, a new way
    Somewhere the sun shines in the east
    A new day....oh, a new day

    You
    You caught me in your spell
    Hypnotized
    You touched me and now I'm ??gone??
    Conflict
    Every day the same
    Wishing
    Wishing we could see the way

    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new way...oh, a new way
    Somewhere the sun shines in the east
    A new day....oh, a new day

    We watch the sun rise in the east
    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new day....oh, a new day
    A new day....oh, a new day

    How soon the flame of love can die
    How soon "goodnight" becomes "goodbye"

    You're gone now, and life goes on now
    And ev'rything seems out of tune
    But time can bring a change of heart
    And love can make another start
    Someday, you may come back to me to stay
    But who can say how soon?

    A Needle In A Haystack
    Composer(s): Con Conrad - Herb Magidson
    Performer(s): Fred Astaire



    It's just like looking for a needle in a haystack
    Searching for a moonbeam in the blue
    Still I've got to find you

    It's just like looking for a raindrop in the ocean
    Searching for a dewdrop in the dew
    Still I've got to find you

    I'll roam the town in hope that we'll meet
    Look at each face I pass on the street
    Sometimes I feel the beat of your feet
    But it's just my imagination

    Though it's like looking for a needle in a haystack
    Still I'll follow everything you do
    'Cause I've got to find you

    How Sad Venice Can Be ((aka Venice In Blue (Bobby Darin) - 1965)) ((Adapted from: Que C'est Triste Venise (Charles Aznavour) - 1964)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Françoise Dorin Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1965

    Versions In Other Languages: 1965 - Venedig In Grau (Corry Brokken) 1965 - Venecia Sin Ti (Charles Aznavour) 1965 - É Tão Triste Veneza (Agnaldo Timóteo) 1970 - Com'è Triste Venezia (Charles Aznavour)



    How sad Venice can be
    When you return alone
    A fond memory
    In every paving stone

    I walk among the birds
    That fill San Marco's Square
    With echoes of her words
    Around me in the air

    How sad Venice can be
    When mandolins play
    A song she sung for me
    One unforgotten day

    Like images of sleep
    The gondoliers go by
    But when I try to weep
    I find my tears are dry

    How sad Venice can be
    When mist is in your eyes
    And you can hardly see
    As pigeons fill the skies

    I find the little street
    And then the old cafe
    Where we would always meet
    To dream away the day

    How sad Venice can be
    Beneath the silent moon
    That rises from the sea
    And silvers the lagoon

    I hear the vespers chime
    And cross the Bridge of Sighs
    I know that it is time
    To bid my last goodbye

    There's nothing more to say
    I pass beneath the light
    And then I turn away
    From Venice in the night

    How sad Venice can be
    It's too lonely to bear
    When you have lost the love
    That you discovered there

    (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman
    Composer(s): Carole King - Gerald Wexler - Gerry Goffin
    First release by: Aretha Franklin - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Looking out on the morning rain
    I used to feel uninspired
    And when I knew I had to face another day
    Lord, it made me feel so tired
    Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
    But your love was the key to peace my mind

    'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel, you make me feel like
    A natural woman

    When my soul was in the lost-and-found
    You came along to claim it
    I didn't know just what was wrong with me
    Till your kiss helped me name it
    Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for
    'Cause if I make you happy I don't need no more

    Oh, baby, what you've done to me
    You make me feel so good inside
    And I just want to be close to you
    You make me feel so alive

    How Much Tequila (Did I Drink Last Night?)
    Composer(s): Steve Goodman; John Prine
    Performer(s): Steve Goodman



    How much tequila did I drink last night?
    It's really anybody's guess
    I poured them so fast, I couldn't keep them in the glass
    But this morning I sure am a mess
    My head is four or five times its normal size
    And I got this big old cactus stuck between my eyes
    I can't recall a single thing I did or said
    Or the names of all these people sleeping in this bed
    Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
    Tell me how much tequila did I drink last night?

    How did I get these cuts and bruises all over my body?
    I must have fallen down somehow
    I believe it had something to do with karate
    It's all coming back to me now
    I was standing in a bar with King Kong's cousin
    He must have been seven foot three
    His elbow gave me a bump, and so I said "Hey, chump
    Would you like to step outside with me?"
    Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
    Tell me how much tequila did I drink last night?

    My mouth is filled with cotton and my brain is sore
    I left last night's dinner on this morning's floor
    My stomach is swollen and my eyeballs shrunk
    I drank so much that my hair got drunk

    I see a big old worm about ten feet long
    Hallucinating purple cows
    Somebody moved the furniture while I was gone
    Uh oh, this is not my house
    I could call us a taxi on the telephone
    If I only knew where we are
    I guess I'm gonna have to drive myself back home
    As soon as I can find the car
    Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
    Tell me how much tequila did I drink last night?

    A Natural Man
    Composer(s): Sandy Baron - Bobby Hebb
    Performer(s): Lou Rawls



    You know, there was a time when, if someone told you to do somethin', you did it
    Bam! Right on!
    No questions asked
    It was "Yes, sir" and "Yes, mam"
    You never said no
    You know? Huh
    But, you know, things are changing nowadays
    It's a new day, babies
    Folks want to take their own lives into their hands and make their own choices
    No longer do they wanna go along with the program 'cause everybody say it's right
    You know what I mean?
    Let me tell ya what I'm talkin' about, ya see, 'cause...

    I don't want no gold watch for workin' fifty years from nine till five
    A-while the boss is guzzling champagne and I'm beltin' beer in some dive

    'Cause I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and loving for me
    I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and lovin' for me
    Like a natural man (like a natural man)
    A natural man (like a natural man)

    Well now, I refuse to listen to people's thinkin' that I live too high
    I'm gonna taste it now before my one life streaks on by

    'Cause I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and lovin' for me
    I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and lovin' for me
    Just like a natural man (like a natural man)
    I said a natural man (just like a natural man)

    Well now, I tried to do what others say that I should do
    They say that I should fit in, fool 'em, fake it, well
    Those kinda dues just make me crazy and blue
    Man, I just can't take it

    So when ya see me walkin', won't ya notice that proud look in my eyes
    My feet are on the ground and my soul is searchin' for the sky

    'Cause I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and lovin' for me
    I want to be happy and free
    Livin' and lovin' for me
    Just like a natural man (just like a natural man)
    A natural man (just like a natural man)
    Just like a natural man (just like a natural man)
    My feet are on the ground (just like a natural man)
    My soul is searchin' for the sky (just like a natural man)
    Like a natural man (just like a natural man)
    No more "Yes, sir" (just like a natural man)
    No more "Yes, mam" (just like a natural man)
    Huh, 'cause I'm a natural man (just like a natural man)
    I'm a natural man (just like a natural man)

    How Much I've Lied
    Composer(s): Gram Parsons; Pam Rifkin
    Performer(s): Elvis Costello;
    and various other artists



    Darling, there is one thing I must tell you, you must know
    It's so hard to say the words I feel
    This fancy that I'm on's been going on too long
    It's time to stop pretending things are real
    'Cause I've been living deep in sin, I've been living blind
    And I just don't know what's right or wrong
    To take a chance on losing you is such a silly thing to do
    A chance I might wake up and find you gone

    Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue
    Any private flame could be a lie
    Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you
    But I know I'll only make you cry

    A thief can only steal from you
    He cannot break your heart
    He can never touch the precious things inside
    Someone like you should surely be
    Miles and miles away from me
    Then you'd never care how much I've lied
    So try to understand the pain
    It takes so long when I explain
    Please don't you forget how much I've lied
    How much I've lied
