Abracadabra 2000
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos



Un pueblo suburbano
un hombre a contramano
tributo al desempleado

Julio y María, sus 2 hijos
y su esposa Analia
trabaja de día
y a la noche quiere estudiar

Abracadabra 2000

Él y algunos compañeros
fueron despedidos
en el mes de enero
el asunto es desregular

Después de 20 años
ensamblando autos
46 cumplidos, difícil volver a empezar
(no papi, no!, no mami, no!)
(solo propagandas)

Harto y frustrado (habrá que resistir)
se consiguió un aliado (el miedo)
botella en mano partió
(el vicio vence a la virtud)
leyó el grafitti
(en la pared del club y con actitud)
firmó su manifiesto
abandonando el lugar...

Abracadabra 2000

"Todo esta armado para domesticar
desde el trabajo hasta la puta moral,
comprando y vendiendo
hombres, mujeres e ideas
y lo que no pueden comprar
lo hacen desaparecer...

Un pueblo suburbano
un hombre a contramano

Hoy que encontramos asesinos
en las páginas amarillas
(habrá que competir)
hoy que cualquier imbécil
es profeta arriba de una silla
(habrá que tener fe)
Hoy que el Prozac nos divide
en Jekylls y Hydes
(habrá que simular)
hoy que el mundo esta quemando aceite
y la marcha atrás parece no entrar
*(habrá que andar a pie)
hoy que el ministro dio instrucciones
para que todo siga como antes
*(habrá que resistir)

Ah! Ah! Abracada...

Que se vayan, que se vayan
que se vayan todos

Ah! Ah! Abracada...
Abracadabra 

We Made It
Composer(s): David Paich; Jeff Porcaro
Performer(s): Toto



Bad time for love - you caught me on your birthday
I could feel your heart break into a hundred pieces
We were too torn apart, now it seems so senseless
And if we're clever, we'll put it together, it may be forever

Chorus:
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again

Down on my luck, you arrived just in time, my angel
Thought you'd given me up, like a rhyme that needs no reason
I want you enough to keep my life untangled
If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever

Chorus

I want you enough to keep my life untangled
If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever

Chorus repeats 2x

If ever we'll make it, we're gonna make it girl
And I know we can take it, we got to take it, girl

If ever we can make it, we gotta make it
And I know we can take it…

I heat up, I can't cool down 
You got me spinnin' 
'Round and 'round 
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes 
Where it stops nobody knows 

Every time you call my name 
I heat up like a burnin' flame 
Burnin' flame full of desire 
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher 

Abra-abra-cadabra 
I want to reach out and grab ya 
Abra-abra-cadabra 
Abracadabra 

You make me hot, you make me sigh 
You make me laugh, you make me cry 
Keep me burnin' for your love 
With the touch of a velvet glove 

Abra-abra-cadabra 
I want to reach out and grab ya 
Abra-abra-cadabra 
Abracadabra 

I feel the magic in your caress 
I feel magic when I touch your dress 
Silk and satin, leather and lace 
Black panties with an angel's face 

I see magic in your eyes 
I hear the magic in your sighs 
Just when I think I'm gonna get away 
I hear those words that you always say 

Abra-abra-cadabra 
I want to reach out and grab ya 
Abra-abra-cadabra 
Abracadabra 

Every time you call my name 
I heat up like a burnin' flame 
Burnin' flame full of desire 
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher 

I heat up, I can't cool down 
My situation goes 'round and 'round 
I heat up, I can't cool down 
My situation goes 'round and 'round 
I heat up, I can't cool down 
My situation goes 'round and 'round 

We Love You 
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones



We don't care if you only love "we" 
We don't care if you only love "we" 
We love you. We love you, and we hope
that you will love "we" too
We love "they" 
We love "they", and we want you to love "they" too
Ah 

We don't care if you hound "we" and love is all around "we"
Love can't get our minds off
We love you, we love you 

You will never win "we"
Your uniforms don't fit "we"
We forget the place we're in
'Cause we love you
We love you 
Of course, we do 

I love you 
I love you
And I hope that you won't prove wrong too
We love you 
We do 
We love you 
We do 
Ah...

Una mujer
por despecho -o por placer-
enterró en un jardín
un coco seco mojado en carmín
Luego un rival
narcotraficando el mal
escupía con ron
y alfilereaba un feliz corazón

Yo no se
cómo hay quien malversa la vida
cómo hay quien invoca una hérida
como pueden gastar el amor
Yo no se
(Como si no faltaran las penas
como si nos sobraran las cenas
como si diera dicha el dolor)
Yo no se
si el mal tiempo trae mala fe
si la desesperación hace blanco
y se cierran los laicos colegios
si se vuelve al sortilegio
y aprendices de delfín
creen llegar a Merlín
Yo no se
si el mal tiempo trae mala fe
pero a mí lo que me embruja es volar
y hechizarme con tus sortilegios
soy brillante en tu colegio
subo nota en el amor
vuelo allí
como al sol
un colibrí

Abracadabra
curandera mi palabra
todo mal pone bien
sana del odio y vacuna también
Abracadabra
siga la pata en su cabra
girasol, alhelí
la mariposa besó al colibrí

We Love Us
Composer(s): Ted Bluechel
Performer(s): The Association



I wake her, I hold her
I tell her I love her
And she smiles and says the same
She makes me feel like sunshine when she says my name
Her laughing, her crying
Her caring, her sharing
Of my life means more to me
Than all the wealth and fame that fortune brings to me
Turn your head around
Are you sure love's the feeling that surrounds you?
Does the question count when you feel good
As good inside as I do, do you?
The sun sets, the gulls fly
We love us, she and I

Bang, You're Dead 
Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson
Performer(s): Bette Midler



"Oh god, oh god 
Dumping so early in the evening
I really didn't mean that
I really didn't mean that"

Above the ground, I'm lifted to the sky
And down like a tumbling weed I found myself stranded high and dry
A circus ride, oh, it only costs a dime
But if you wanna see the fireworks you might have to pay a lifetime

'Cause love is a carnival
With lots of laughs, wonderful rides and danger
But it feels so good
With rockets shootin' in your head
'round and 'round and 'round you go
Bang, you're dead, baby
Bang, you're dead, baby

Like a boomerang keeps twisting, twisting in your heart
You know the funny part of it is, you always end up where you start
You're headed for big clouds 
Got the silver lining
But you're in for a big surprise
There's a river of tears behind it

'Cause love is a carnival
With lots of baubles, bangles and beads
Beware, beware, beware
It feels so good, feels so good
With rockets shootin' in your head
'round and 'round and 'round you go
Bang, you're dead, baby 
Bang, you're dead, baby

Above the ground I'm lifted 
Spinning, spinning, spinning out of control
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher!
Above the ground I'm lifted, yeah, to the sky
And down like a tumbling weed I found myself stranded high and dry
A circus ride, you know it, it only costs a dime
but if you wanna see the fireworks you might have to pay
Hey, yeah, yeah, to the sky, high 
And down like a tumbling weed
I found myself stranded, stranded
Bang, you're dead! 

We Live For Love
Composer(s): Neil Geraldo
Performer(s): Pat Benatar



Your love's contagious, one kiss is dangerous
But I have more to risk, than you to lose
I feel passion growing
I know that love is only just one inch away
from striking us
We Live For Love
We Live For Love

When we get tired, and watch the summer fade away
Will you think of romance, what will we do?
Is there a place where we can go?
Where time stands still for those who know?
Till eternity we'll fulfill our desires

We Live For Love
We Live For Love
We Live For Love
We Live For Love

Above The Clouds
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
First release by: Electric Light Orchestra - 1976



I came along to see your face
But the only thing I got from you
Was telling me it's fantasy
That you would always be with me
I can tell you that it's true
I'm waiting here
But it's alright
It's alright with me
You better believe me now
I guess it's like a mountain side
You gotta climb it to the top
Floating in a sea of dreams
The only thing that you can see
Is the view above the clouds
I'm waiting here
But it's alright
Still it's alright with me
You better believe me now

We Just Disagree
Composer(s): Jim Krueger
Performer(s): Dave Mason;
and various other artists



Been away, haven't seen you in a while
How've you been?, have you changed your style?
And do you think that we've grown up differently?
Don't seem the same, seems you've lost your feel for me

Chorus
So let's leave it alone 'cause we can't see eye-to-eye
There ain't no good guys, there ain't no bad guys
There's only you and me and we just disagree

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh

I'm goin' back to a place that's far away, how 'bout you?
Have you got a place to stay? Why should I care?
When I'm just tryin' to get along, we were friends
But now it's "depend upon a love song"

Chorus x2

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Above And Beyond
Composer(s): Maurice Gibb - Barry Gibb - Robin Gibb
Performer(s): Bee Gees



Woman in a million to me 
I never loved so much 
Is it any wonder I'm alive 
No one ever knows what makes a 
Virtue or a vice 
Let it be the spell I'm under 
(These naked eyes) 
Let it be the rain and thunder comes 

I go above and beyond the sun 
Some love never dies 
Story of our lives, ohh, 
Swear by the stars above 
And late at night I pray to myself 
That you and I got everything we need 
I'd give it all for you and me 

Love is the earth and the wind 
And the fire and the soul 
Love is above and beyond any eye to behold 
Love is the key and the cause 
And it's makin' us whole 

Made me a little crazy, but I 
Soon realize my fate 
Every little touch I'm paralyzed 
No one ever know what makes 
An angel in disguise 
Let me be the one to taste you 
Those naked eyes 
No pity if the city ever crumbles down 

I go above and beyond the sun 
Some love never dies 
Story of our lives, ohh
Swear by the stars above 
And late at night I pray to myself 
That you and I got everything we need 
I'd give it all for you and me 

Love is the earth and the wind 
And the fire and we share 
Love is the force and the edge 
And it's ready for those who dare 
Love is above and beyond 
And I'm taking you there 
(And baby, I'll take you there) 

I go above and beyond the sun 
Some love never dies 
Story of our lives, ohh 
Swear by the stars above 
And late at night I pray to myself 
That you and I got everything we need 
I'd give it all for you and me 

Love is the earth and the wind 
And the fire and the soul 
Love is the key and the cause 
And it's makin' us whole 
Love is the force and the edge 
And it's yours if you dare 
Love is above and beyond 
And I'm taking you there 
(Baby, I'll take you there) 

I go above and beyond the sun 
Some love never dies 
Story of our lives, ohh
Swear by the stars above 
And late at night I pray to myself 
That you and I got everything we need 
I'd give it all for you and me

We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye
Composer(s): Harry Woods
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo;
and various other artists



We thought that love was over
That we were really through
I said I didn't love him
That we'd begin anew
And you can all believe me
We sure intended to
But we just couldn't say goodbye

The chair and then the sofa
They broke right down and cried
The curtains started waving
For me to come inside
I tell you confidentially
The tears were hard to hide
And we just couldn't say goodbye

The clock was striking twelve o'clock
It smiled on us below
With folded hands it seemed to say
"We'll miss you if you go"

So I went back and kissed him
And when I looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we're both so happy
Because at last we've found
That we just couldn't say goodbye

People in love are funny
They’re mighty hard to explain
One minute they quarrel
Then they’re back together again
Take my case for instance
We had a little fuss
Now listen, ladies and gentlemen
Here’s what happened to us

I said I didn't love him
That we'd begin anew

But we just couldn’t say goodbye
The chair and then the sofa
They broke right down and cried

I tell you confidentially
The tears were hard to hide
And we just couldn't say goodbye

So I went back and kissed him
And when I looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we're both so happy
Because at last we've found
That we just couldn't say goodbye

Above All
Composer(s): Lenny LeBlanc - Paul Baloche
Performer(s): Michael W. Smith



Above all powers 
Above all things 
Above all nature and all created things 
Above all wisdom and all the ways of man 
You were here before the world began 

Above all kingdoms 
Above all thrones 
Above all wonders the world has ever known 
Above all wealth and treasures of the earth 
There's no way to measure what You're worth 

Crucified 
Laid behind the stone 
You lived to die 
Rejected and alone 
Like a rose trampled on the ground 
You took the fall 
And thought of me 
Above all 

We Have No Secrets
Composer(s): Carly Simon
Performer(s): Carly Simon



We have no secrets
We tell each other everything
About the lovers in our past 
And why they didn't last
We share a cast of characters 
From A to Z
We know each other's fantasies 
And though we know each other better 
When we explore
Sometimes I wish, often I wish
That I never knew 
Some of those secrets of yours

The water was cold
The beach was empty but for one
Now you were lying in the sun
Wanting and needing no one
Then some child came
You never asked for her to come
She drank a pint of your rum
And later when you told me
You said she was a bore
Sometimes I wish, oft times I wish
That I never, never knew
Some of those secrets of yours

In the name of honesty, 
In the name of what is fair
You always answer my questions
But they don't always answer my prayers
And though I know you say 
That it's me that you adore
Sometimes I wish, often I wish
That I never, never, never knew
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
Some of those secrets of yours
We have no secrets
Telling each other most everything now

About To Die
Composer(s): Keith Reid - Robin Trower
Performer(s): Procol Harum



About to die - the crowds applaud you 
About to die - they'll resurrect you 
Light a candle up in kingdom come 
Light the way for the saviour's son 
A candle burning bright enough to tear the city down 

About to die - the crowds reward you 
About to die - their cheers ignore you 
Light a candle up in kingdom come 
Light the way for the chosen one 
No candle burned with fire enough to tear that city down 

About to die - the crowds applaud me 
About to die - they'll resurrect me 
Light a candle up in kingdom come 
Light the way for the saviour's son 

We Have A Date
Composer(s): Al Hoffman; Alexander P. Kaeck; Dick Manning
Performer(s): Andy Williams



We have a date to meet again remember
It's been so wonderful to be with you
Till we meet again please think of me 
'Cause I will be thinking of you

We have a date to dream again remember
We have a date to dream all through the night
There's so much more that I have to tell you 
Next time I hold you tight

I'll call you every day my darling 
And I'll get through the week somehow
Hate to break away my darling 
So long for now, so long for now

We have a date to love again remember
It's been so wonderful to be with you
Counting the moments until I see you 
That's what my heart and I will do

Counting the moments until I see you 
That's what my heart and I will do

About The Weather
Composer(s): Howard Devoto - Dave Formula
Performer(s): Magazine



The weather’s variable - so are you
Changes, changes
But I can’t do a thing about the weather
Do you have your ticket!
Can you foresee
Changes, changes

Another time when we might be together!
You have a broken window
Through which the rain pours in my ear
This week’s been all ears and edges
It’s getting like a career

A chain of events
A change of heart
A chain of events
A change of heart
I will study your change of heart in depth

The weather’s variable ...

Now you’re leaning on a fountain
With the sunshine on your shoes
You dislike the climate but you like the place
I hope you learn to live with what you choose

A chain of events ...

I’m so changeable - it’s so frightening

We Gotta Stop
Composer(s): J. Graffagnino; Eric Franssen
Performer(s): Liliane Saint-Pierre



We gotta stop
Denk er eens over
Voor dat je zegt 'ik hou van jou'
Horen wij wel bij elkander
Ben je zo zeker van je trouw

We gotta stop
Denk er eens over
Voor dat w' elkaar veel pijn gaan doen
Zo dat we eens kunnen zeggen
Het is nog altijd net als toen

Ohohoh, al zo vaak heb ik gezien
Anderen begingen ook die fout
Net als wij waren zij te jong
Na het jawoord kwam het berouw

We gotta stop
Denk er eens over
Voor dat je zegt 'ik hou van jou'
Horen wij wel bij elkander
Ben je zo zeker van je trouw
Ben je zo zeker van je trouw
Ben je zo zeker van je trouw
Ben je zo zeker van je trouw

About Insomnia
Composer(s): Mark Gane - Martha Ladly
Performer(s): Martha and the Muffins



Waiting for the dawn for a dream 
A chance to lie down
That confused imitation of life 
Eludes me now
All routes of resistance impaired by your face
Oh fugitive hope will I see you today?

In a tunnel, on a bridge or a viaduct 
We'll meet just by chance
And in a moment or maybe just an hour or so 
Renew our romance

And if the charms of foreign places call 
For changing tableaux
We will auction all our paintings 
And our furniture
And take to the road ...
Do you suppose?

The patterns on the wall never change but shadows grow long
Vous n'assassinez de la realité 
C'est malheuresement
As daylight disperses the spectres of night
My nocturnal musings don wings 
And take flight

We Gotta Get You A Woman
Composer(s): Todd Rundgren
Performer(s): Todd Rundgren; Joe Walsh



Leroy, boy, is that you?
I thought your post-hangin' days were through
Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs
Tell no lies, you get wise
I tell you now we're gonna pull you through
There's only one thing left that we can do

We gotta get you a woman
It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive
We gotta get you a woman
We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now

Leroy, boy, you're my friend
You say how and I'll say when
Come and meet me down the street
Take a seat, it's my treat
You may not ever get this chance again
That empty feeling's just about to end

Talkin' 'bout life and what it means to you
It don't mean nothin' if it don't run through
I got one thing to say, you know it's true
You got to find some time to get this thing together

Talkin' 'bout things about that special one
They may be stupid but they sure are fun
I'll give it to you while we're on the run
Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause we
Got to get together with a woman who has been around
One who knows better than to let you down
Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town
And that she'll take some time to get this thing together

We gotta get you a woman
And when we're through with you
We'll get me one too
