What A World Composer(s): Benny Hill Performer(s): Benny Hill
Now it was Christmas Day in the jailhouse The old man sat in his cell "Put out your pudding, for treacle" He heard the warden yell "If you want treacle on your pudding Put it out without delay" The old man put out his pudding And the warden took it away
Chorus What a world, (what a world) what a place, (what a place) Ain't you glad you're a member of the human race
Now the folksinger came from America To sing at the Albert Hall He sang his songs of protest And fairer shares for all He sang how the poor were much too poor And the rich too rich by far Then he drove back to his penthouse In his brand new Rolls Royce car
[chorus]
Now Annie's a shorthand typist Working for the B.B.C. Her brother Jackie's in prison d Doing three years for forgery Her sister Josie's in Holloway In Dartmoor is her Uncle Jim And her dad runs a pirate radio ship But she never talks about him
[chorus]
Now three old maids had a she-cat Kept her indoors night and day Kept her away from the he-cats Thought she'd like it better that way Then one old maid went and got married The next morning she hastened to write A note to the others which simply said "Let kitty out tonight"
[chorus]
Now the button was pressed, the world destroyed Leaving just one solitary man And at the top of the Empire State Building His lonely existance began But his loneliness was too much so he jumped And he fell like a bird with one wing And as he passed the seventh floor He heard the telephone ring
Adiós Juventud No puedo esconder las canas Adiós Juventud las ganas De volver a salir A marcha camión A grapa y limón Me queda un verso por decir Antes de partir Adiós Corazón Adiós Carnaval (Adiós Barrio Sur) El tiempo no pasa en vano Adiós Barrio Sur la mano De unos cuantos fue cruel No les convenció El borocotó Un nuevo cementerio ven Les parece bien Adiós a Cuareim Adiós al talud (Adiós Corazón) El cuerpo ya no responde Adiós Juventud adónde Voy a ir si no estás Parezco un Pierrot Que triste quedó Con el recuerdo de un disfraz Que no sirve más Adiós Marabú Adiós Carnaval (Adiós Juventud) Prometo volver entero Adiós Carnaval espero Recorrerte otra vez Cantarle al rigor Un nuevo cuplé Hasta que el rulo del tambor Marque otro final Adiós Carnaval
Parece mentira las cosas que veo Por las calles de Montevideo

C'est fini Miss Molly Vous m'avez épuisé C'est fini Miss Molly Oui tous vos baisers mon saoulé Ça doit bien faire une semaine Que l'on ne s'est pas rhabillé
Pour vivre j'ai besoin d'autre chose que de vous faire l'amour Au sinon je vais mourir avant d'avoir revu le jour
C'est fini Miss Molly Je perds par abandon Si l'amour devient une course Avec vous, c'est un marathon
J'étais venu pour réparer votre télévision Et je me retrouve au lit sur un volcan en éruption
C'est fini Miss Molly Vous allez me tuer J'ai besoin d'un an de vacances Et je vais changer de métier
C'est fini Miss Molly Ou j'appelle au secours C'est fini Miss Molly Ou je saute dans la cour Il faut me rendre mes affaires Cachées depuis le premier jour
J'étais venu ici pour réparer votre télévision Et je me retrouve au lit sur un volcan en éruption
C'est fini Miss Molly Vous allez me tuer J'ai besoin d'un an de vacances Et je vais changer de métier

All right (Yes indeed, it's him I need) (Yes indeed, it's him I need)
I wanna say that man of mine is determined as can be To make a good life for him and make a good life for me Works every day grindin' the ax But I know what to give him when it's time to relax Pretty good lovin' (pretty good lovin') Pretty good kissin' (pretty good kissin') Days that he's mean I've seldom seen They're far and few between Let this girl tell the world Oh what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is) Wanna tell the world about my baby (oh what a good man he is)
Wo wo wo wo wo what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is) Got a whole lot of other (oh what a good man he is) Don't worry I'll love another, no (oh what a good man he is) Let this girl tell the world

Adieu To My Island Composer(s): Travis Edmonson Performer(s): The Kingston Trio
I must bid adieu to my island Leave the nights by the sea My heart is heavy inside me Bow down just like a palm tree The nights may be warm in Hawaii and the sun may shine on Rome But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad and my heart tells me that's home
I must bid adieu to my island Leave the nights by the sea My heart is heavy inside me Bow down just like a palm tree The nights may be warm in Hawaii and the sun may shine on Rome But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad and my heart tells me that's home
The sun's comin' out of the ocean, now and in an hour I'll be gone. Watch from the mountain when the ships sail in for the one that I'll be on.
I must bid adieu to my island Leave the nights by the sea My heart is heavy inside me Bow down just like a palm tree The nights may be warm in Hawaii and the sun may shine on Rome But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad and my heart tells me that's home
What A Diff'rence A Day Made Adapted from: Cuando Vuelva A Tu Lado - 1924 Composer(s): Stanley Adams; María Grever Performer(s): The Dorsey Brothers Orch. (Vocal: Bob Crosby) - 1934 Covered by multiple other artists
What a diff'rence a day made Twenty four little hours Brought the sun and the flowers where there used to be rain
My yesterday was blue dear Today I'm part of you dear My lonely nights are through dear Since you said you were mine
What a diff'rence a day made There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy Since that moment of bliss That thrilling kiss It's heaven when you Find romance on menu
What a diff'rence a day made And the diff'rence is you
Adieu Paris Composer(s): André Hornez - Sauvage - Senamaud Performer(s): Berthe Sylva
Adieu Paris, je me retire à la campagne L'ennui me gagne, assez d'champagne J'en ai soupé d'aller souper avec les poules Et de rentrer comme si l'pavé faisait d'la houle Adieu Paris, car j'en ai par-dessus la tête Faire la fête, oh, qu'ça m'embête Je vais me mettre au vert, vivre comme les bêtes Me coucher tôt et ne plus boire que d'l'eau Oui mais Avant que je te quitte Que je vive en ermite Tout là-bas loin de toi Oh! Ville des merveilles Encore une fois Vidons une bouteille Et puis deux, et puis trois Oh! La drôle de chose Lorsqu'un bouchon explose Je vois la vie en rose Profitons-en, garçon! Apportez-moi la carte On doit, sans façon Faire avant que je parte Un bon gueuleton Adieu Paris, ville de rêve et d'épouvante Ville méchante, ville charmante Tu fais payer bien cher le bonheur que tu donnes Mais en mourant, on t'aime tant qu'on te pardonne Adieu Paris, adieu Montmartre et Notre-dame Et jolie femme, et vilain drame Toute l'éternité nous te donnons nos âmes Leur paradis, c'est le ciel de Paris!
