He said he's comin' back again to raise the dead
Are ya gonna be among the chosen few?
Or will you make it through?

A stick, a stone
It's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump
It's a little alone

It's a sliver of glass
It is life, it's the sun
It is night, it is death
It's a trap, it's a gun

The oak when it blooms
A fox in the brush
A knot in the wood
The song of a thrush

The wood of the wind
A cliff, a fall
A scratch, a lump
It is nothing at all

It's the wind blowing free
It's the end of the slope
It's a beam, it's a void
It's a hunch, it's a hope

And the river bank talks
of the waters of March
It's the end of the strain
The joy in your heart

The foot, the ground
The flesh and the bone
The beat of the road
A slingshot's stone

A fish, a flash
A silvery glow
A fight, a bet
The range of a bow

The bed of the well
The end of the line
The dismay in the face
It's a loss, it's a find

A spear, a spike
A point, a nail
A drip, a drop
The end of the tale

A truckload of bricks
in the soft morning light
The shot of a gun
in the dead of the night

A mile, a must
A thrust, a bump
It's a girl, it's a rhyme
It's a cold, it's the mumps

The plan of the house
The body in bed
And the car that got stuck
It's the mud, it's the mud

Afloat, adrift
A flight, a wing
A hawk, a quail
The promise of spring

And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March
It's the promise of life
It's the joy in your heart

A stick, a stone
It's the end of the road
It's the rest of a stump
It's a little alone

A snake, a stick
It is John, it is Joe
It's a thorn in your hand
and a cut in your toe

A point, a grain
A bee, a bite
A blink, a buzzard
A sudden stroke of night

A pin, a needle
A sting, a pain
A snail, a riddle
A wasp, a stain

A pass in the mountains
A horse and a mule
In the distance the shelves
rode three shadows of blue

And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March
It's the promise of life
in your heart, in your heart

A stick, a stone
The end of the road
The rest of a stump
A lonesome road

A sliver of glass
A life, the sun
A knife, a death
The end of the run

And the riverbank talks
of the waters of March
It's the end of all strain
It's the joy in your heart

A Wonderful Day In A One Day World
Performer(s): Peter Gabriel



A Wonderful Day In A One Day World 
Saturday is shopping day and I drive my car but there's no place to park it
No respect for supermen in the supermarket
I guess there must be trouble but I've not been alerted
Looking round the store, it was all deserted
And I'm stranded here with my empty basket
So full of questions but nowhere to ask it

By the one way out, strange voice shouts
"Don't let that good man out!"
"Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
One way, one day
Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
One way, one day
One-way man, one-way mind, get along with mankind"

There's an old man on the floor so I summon my charm
I say, "Hey scumbag, has there been an alarm?"
He says "Yeah, I been selling off eternal youth
They all got afraid, 'cos I'm the living proof
My name is Einstein, do you know time is a curve?"
I said, "Stop, old man! You've got a nerve
'cos there's only one rule that I observe
Time is money, and money I serve"

By the one way out, strange voice shouts
"Don't let that good man out!"
"Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
One way, one day
Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
One way, one day
One-way man, one-way mind, get along with mankind"

Watermelon Man

Hey - Watermelon Man
Hey - Watermelon Man
Bring me one that rattles when you lug it
One that's erd and juicy when you plug it
Do you understand - Watermelon Man
Hey - Watermelon Man
Hey - Watermelon Man
Hot and bothered need a little cooling
When I hear your call I start to drooling
Do you understand - Watermelon Man

A Wonder Like You
Composer(s): Jerry Fuller
Performer(s): Ricky Nelson; Jerry Fuller



I've seen the snow-white mountains of Alaska
I've sailed along the rivers of Peru
I've seen the world and all its seven wonders
But I've never seen a wonder like you
I've stood upon the pyramids of Egypt
Far away across the ocean blue
I've seen the island beauties of Hawaii
But I've never seen a beauty like you

I've gazed at the White Cliffs of Dover
There's not a place I didn't see
Now that my travels are over
I wish you had been there with me

I've seen the pretty dancing girls of Siam
The happy Polynesian people too
But they're not as happy as I am
'Cause they haven't got a wonder like you

I've gazed at the White Cliffs of Dover
There's not a place I didn't see
Now that my travels are over
I wish you had been there with me

I've seen the pretty dancing girls of Siam
The happy Polynesian people too
But they're not as happy as I am
'Cause they haven't got a wonder like you
'Cause they haven't got a wonder like you
No they haven't got a wonder like you
No they haven't got a wonder like you

Waterloo Sunset
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks;
and various other artists



Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night
People so busy, makes me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright
But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine

Terry meets julie, waterloo station
Every friday night
But I am so lazy, don't want to wander
I stay at home at night
But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine

Millions of people swarming like flies 'round waterloo underground
But terry and julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound
And the don't need no friends
As long as they gaze on waterloo sunset
They are in paradise

Waterloo sunset's fine

A Woman's Work Is Never Done
Composer(s): Lesley Nelson-Burns



Come all who roam, both old and young
And listen to my song
I'll tell you of a circumstance
That will not keep you long
I saw a man the other day
As savage as a Turk
And he was grumbling at his wife
And said she did no work

So men, if you would happy be
Don't grumble at your wife so
For no man can imagine
What a woman has to do

He said: You lazy huzzy!
Indeed you must confess
For I'm a-tired of keeping you
In all your idleness
The woman she made answer
I work as hard as you
And I will just run through the list
What a woman has to do

So men, if you would happy be
Don't grumble at your wife so
For no man can imagine
What a woman has to do

At six o'clock each morning
Off to your work you go
At eight I rise to light the fire
And the bellows for to blow
I have to set the tea things'
And get the kettle boiled
Besides, you know, I have to wash
And dress the youngest child

So men, if you would happy be
Don't grumble at your wife so
For no man can imagine
What a woman has to do

I have to shake and make the bed
And sweep the room also
I have to knit, I have to spin
I have to sit and sew
Besides, and this you well do know
I always make a rule
To wash and dress the little ones
And send them off to school

So men if you would happy be
Don't grumble at your wife so
But think of your poor mother
How she put up with you

(Every puppy has its day)

Now old Adam was the first in history
With an apple he was tempted and deceived
Just for spite the Devil made him take a bite
And that's when old Adam met his Waterloo

(Where will you meet your Waterloo?)
(Every puppy has its day)
(Everybody has to pay)

Little General Napoleon of France
Tried to conquer the world but lost his pants
Met defeat, known as Bonaparte's retreat
And that's where Napoleon met his Waterloo

{Waterloo, Waterloo)
(Where will you meet your Waterloo?)
(Every puppy has its day)
(Everybody has to pay)

Now a fellah whose darling proved untrue
Took her life, but he lost his too
Now he swings where the little birdie sings
And that's where Tom Dooley met his Waterloo

A Woman's Touch
From the film "Calamity Jane" (1953)
Composer(s): Sammy Fain - Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): Doris Day & Allyn McLerie
and multiple other artists



Katie: 
A woman's touch

Calamity: 
A woman's touch

Katie: 
The magic of Aladdin couldn't do as much

Katie: 
She's a wizard, she's a champ

Calamity: 
And she doesn't need a lamp

Katie:
A woman's touch can weave a spell
The kind of hocus pocus that she does so well

Calamity:
With the magic of a broom
She can mesmerize a room

Katie:
With a whisk whisk here and a whisk whisk there
And a dustpan for the cinders

Calamity:
With a rub rub here and a rub rub there
She can polish up the winders
Then presto chango
Suddenly, the sun comes shining through

Katie:
And what does Mr Sunshine say to you?

Calamity: 
Howdy-do!

Katie: 
It makes you blink, to stop and think

Calamity: 
A woman and a whisk-broom can accomplish so darn much

Both: 
So never underestimate a woman's touch

Calamity:
A woman's touch can quickly fill
The empty flower boxes on a winder sill

Katie:
One smile from her and zoom
Little buds begin to bloom

Katie: 
A touch of paint

Calamity: 
A magic nail

Both: 
Can turn a kitchen chair into a Chippendale

Calamity:
Even make the lamp appear
Like a crystal chandelier

Katie:
With a tack tack here and a tack tack there
And a hand around a hammer
With a mop mop here and a mop mop there
You can give a cabin glamour

Calamity:
Then gosh almighty, all at once
The cabin that we knew
Becomes a shining castle built for two

Both: 
Me and you

Katie:
The pies and cakes a woman bakes
Can make a fella tell her
That he loves her very much

Calamity: 
It can?

Both: 
So never underestimate a woman's touch

Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

(Woman, woman, woman)
(Woman, woman, woman)
(Woman, woman, woman)
(Woman, woman, woman)

If she didn't roll her eyes
Tease you, feed you, tell you lies
Always act contrarywise
A woman wouldn't be a woman

If she didn't take your dough
Kiss you, coax you, make you blow
Always keep you on the go
A woman wouldn't be a woman

Well, you can't live with 'em, or without 'em
You never really know a thing about 'em
It's hard to believe that all that there is
Rag and bone and a hank o' hair

If she didn't make you sigh
Make you laugh and make you cry
Taunt you till the day you die
A woman wouldn't be a woman

Well, you can't live with 'em, or without 'em
You never really know a thing about 'em
It's hard to believe that all that there is
Rag and bone and a hank o' hair

If she didn't make you sigh
Make you laugh and make you cry
Taunt you till the day you die
A woman wouldn't be a woman

(No, a woman wouldn't be a woman)
(But since the World began)
If you didn't love 'em and want more of 'em
A man wouldn't be a man

Waterdrager

Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot



De zee valt, de zee daalt en brandend rijst de zon omhoog 
De bange waterdrager haalt mee water want de zee valt droog 
De zee rijst, de zee stijgt en langzaam daalt de zon omlaag 
De waterdrager zwoegt en denkt misschien dat hij het redt vandaag 
Want de zee moet gered van de zon 
Want de zee moet gered van de zon

refr.: 
Waterdrager draag 't water naar de zee 
Waterdrager draag 't water naar de zee

De zee kust, de zee blust en dooft de hete avondzon 
De waterdrager slaapt en rust, tevreden dat hij 't halen kon 
En de zee heeft gered van de zon 
En de zee heeft gered van de zon

refr. 

De zee vlamt, de zee brandt, de waterdrager schroeit z'n rug 
De zon stijgt aan de achterkant, de waterdrager haast zich vlug 
Want de zee moet gered van de zon 
Want de zee moet gered van de zon

refr. 

Draag 't water naar de zee
Draag 't water naar de zee
Draag 't water naar de zee

Don't put her off, don't make her wait
Don't try to give her that worn out excuse [Ooh, ooh]
About being tired and workin' late

Early from work [Home from work]
Open up the door
And get your feelings hurt

Because she needs it, yeah [Just like you do, hoo]

You better take out some insurance and be sure she won't

Give her the love, mmm [Just like you do, hoo], yeah
That sweet, sweet love, she wants it just like you
`Cause she can fool around [Just like you do, hoo] just like she will fool around

Well, it's water, water ev'rywhere
And not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down and think

Think about his girl
Think about the times we had
Together, boy
On Friday we'd paint the town
But now she ain't around

There's only water, water ev'rywhere
Not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down and think

Think about some tea
Even if I wanted to be
A tee-totaller
It's only the salty sea
Between the drink and me

It's drives you mad, water, water ev'rywhere
Not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down and think

Think about roast beef
Think about some fish and chips
In newspaper
These galley meals are okay
But sausage ev'ry day

Is as bad as water, water ev'rywhere
Not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down and think

Think about those girls
In the pin-up photographs
Huh, around your bunk
They're standing within arm's reach
And ev'ry one a peach

It's just like water, water ev'rywhere
Not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down, on the deck, and think

A Woman Loves A Man
Composer(s): Dan Hartman - Charlie Midnight
Performer(s): Joe Cocker



Sometimes love can't explain
Each and every rule of the game
Still remains a mystery to me
By any other name

Why she can't make up her mind
While he decides to stay
While one surrenders
And the other one's away
But it's too much to understand
Still a man loves a woman; and

When a woman loves a man
A woman loves a man
She does what she can do
He does the best he can

When a woman loves a man
A woman loves a man
She does what she can do
He does the best he can

And I look into her eyes
When the world is out of hand
And I'm so happy

When a woman loves a man
When a woman loves a man
A woman loves a man.....
A woman loves a man

No moon tonight
No nothing to guide me
Still I will find her
Standing beside me

No moon tonight
There's nothing to guide me
But still I will find her
Standing beside me

There's darkness everywhere
Still I'll find her
Standing beside me
Standing beside me

She's a woman of strength
He's a man of conviction
But sometimes the truth
Is stronger than fiction

When a woman loves a man
A woman loves a man
She does what she can do
He does the best he can

When a woman loves a man
When that woman loves a man
She does what she can do
He does the best he can

No moon tonight
No nothing to guide me
Still I will find her
Standing beside me

No moon tonight
No nothing to guide me
Still I will find her
Standing beside me

No moon tonight
Nothing to guide me
Still I will find her
Standing beside me

When a woman loves a man
A woman loves a man
She does what she can do
But I do all I can...

When a woman loves a man ...

Water Of Love
Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
Performer(s): Dire Straits;
and various other artists



High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely in every way
Got the flats all around me sky up above
I need a little water of love

I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
I need a little water of love

Water of love deep in the ground
No water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It'll carry that water of love to me

There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Waiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon

Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman now my woman is gone
Once there was a river now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone

A Woman Is A Sometime Thing

Listen to yo’ daddy warn you
‘Fore you start a-traveling
Woman may born you, love you and mourn you

Then she’ll tie you to her apron string
Then she’ll shame you and she’ll blame you
Till yo’ woman comes to claim you
‘Cause a woman is a sometime thing
Yes a woman is a sometime thing

Don’t you never let a woman grieve you
Jus’ ‘cause she got yo’ weddin’ ring
She’ll love you and deceive you
Then she’ll take yo’ clothes and leave you
“cause a woman is a sometime thing
Yes a woman is a sometime thing

Drip! Drip! Drip! (Achoo)

Water Lou, she lives up the river
Water Lou, she makes my heart quiver
A pearl diver's daughter
And she's nuts about the water
Water Lou, drip, drip, drip

Water Lou, she swims all the channels
Water Lou, she swims in red flannels
She dives like an otter
Takes to water like a blotter
Water Lou, drip, drip, drip

I paddle up to see her every Sunday mornin'
In my old canoe
And when I paddle home again on Sunday evenin'
I know I've met my Waterloo

Water Lou, she lives with the fishes
Water Lou, her kiss is delicious
I love her with passion
But she's always busy splashin'
Waterloo, drip, drip, drip

I paddle up to see her every Sunday mornin'
In my old canoe
And when I paddle back again on Sunday evenin'
I know I've met my Waterloo

Oh Water Lou, she drinks only water
Water Lou, that other stuff got `er
Her knees started saggin'
Now she's on the water wagon
Water Lou, drip, drip, drip

Drip! Drip! Drip! (Achoo)

A Woman In Love
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
Performer(s): The Four Aces



Your eyes are the eyes of a woman in love
And oh, how they give you away
Why try to deny you're a woman in love
When I know very well what I say
I say no moon in the sky
Ever lent such a glow
some flame deep within made them shine
Those eyes are the eyes of a woman in love
And may they gaze ever more into mine
Crazily gaze ever more into mine

Water From A Stone
Performer(s): Jack Casady



Fooling the horizon
By learning how to dance
Outside every circle
'Cause it's your life
Learn to take a chance
Ah-ah
Squeezing water from a stone
Ah-ah
Any path can lead you home
Ah-ah
Any bridge can get you high
Ah-ah
All my love will keep you dry
Squeezing water from a stone
Making love at midnight
With tears as large as rain
Hiding under covers
Lonely as the cold
Staring down your main
