Are You Sincere? Composer(s): Alfred Bryan - Albert Gumble Performer(s): Elise Stevenson
A youth and a maiden were tripping along, skipping along, singing a song The youth said "linger near me, chee me, hear me I like you much better sweetheart, every day, in every way, don't you think May 'Twould sound more romantic if I called you "dear" The maiden just answered "Look here, now, look here"
It's leap year, you know, "said the maid, all aglow "I want to know, why you're so slow Now what's the use, to tarry, marry, Harry If you are too bashful, put me to the test, answer me "yes" I'll do the rest, I like you, I love you, I want you, I do Now answer the question that I put to you"
Are you sincere? If you're sincere, I'll let you call me your dearie Say what you mean, mean what you say And you can always be near me If I give my heart to you I'll have none and you'll have two If you're sincere, call me your Dear Answer me: Are you sincere?

Nel cielo passano le nuvole che vanno verso il mare sembrano fazzoletti bianchi che salutano il nostro amore
Dio come ti amo non è possibile avere fra le braccia tanta felicità baciare le tue labbra che odorano di vento noi due innamorati come nessuno al mondo
Dio come ti amo mi vien da piangere in tutta la mia vita non ho provato mai un bene così caro un bene così vero chi può fermare il fiume che corre verso il mare le rondini nel cielo che vanno verso il sole chi può cambiar l'amore l'amore mio per te

Dio Mio No
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol
First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1971
Io sto già tremando d'amore lei viene qui questa sera è solo una questione di ore spero di non morire vedendola entrare potremo restare soli Ho messo il vino nel frigo cuoce sul fuoco il sugo il macellaio dovrebbe arrivare dovrebbe portare bistecche e caviale ma un dubbio mi assale
Lei verrà o non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà non verrà Dio mio no Dio mio no dimmi solo che verrà
le voglio sfiorare i capelli col respiro del mio cuore le voglio accarezzare le mani con sguardi leggeri con frasi d'amore d'amore d'amore
Il campanello grida "ti amo" apro e stringo già la sua mano poi la guardo mentre cammina mentre siede vicina intanto che mangia di gusto la carne il caviale e il resto Dopo aver mangiato la frutta si alza e chiede dove c'è il letto poi scompare dietro la porta la sento mi chiama la vedo in pigiama e lei si avvicina e lei si avvicina vicina vicina vicina vicina vicina Dio mio no Dio mio no cosa fai che cosa fai
You tell me that you love me And you tell me that you want me And you even wear my graduation ring
(Doo-wah) It's too wonderful (Doo-wah) It's too beautiful (Doo-wah) It's a fantastic thing
Are you really really mine (really mine) Really mine (really mine) Really mine Will my lucky little star (little star) Really shine (really shine) Really shine Kiss me with feeling Make my heart go reeling Make me know that you are really really really mine
You call me every morning And you see me every evening And you swear that I'm the only one for you
(Doo-wah) Here's the funny part (Doo-wah) Though you cross your heart (Doo-wah) I can't believe it's true
Are you really really mine (really mine) Really mine (really mine) Really mine Will my lucky little star (little star) Really shine (really shine) Really shine Kiss me with feeling Make my heart go reeling Make me know that you are really really really mine
Dio È Morto
Composer(s): Karin de Ponti - Francesco Guccini
First release by: I Nomadi - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Ho visto la gente della mia età andare via lungo le strade che non portano mai a niente cercare il sogno che conduce alla pazzia nella ricerca di qualcosa che non trovano nel mondo che hanno già dentro le notti che dal vino son bagnate dentro le stanze da pastiglie trasformate dentro le nuvole di fumo nel mondo fatto di città essendo contro ed ingoiare la nostra stanca civiltà È un Dio che è morto ai bordi delle strade, Dio è morto nelle auto prese a rate, Dio è morto nei miti dell'estate, Dio è morto
M'han detto che questa mia generazione ormai non crede in ciò che spesso han mascherato con la fede nei miti eterni della patria e dell'eroe perché è venuto ormai il momento di negare tutto ciò che è falsità le fedi fatti di abitudini e paura una politica che è solo far carriera il perbenismo interessato la dignità fatta di vuoto l'ipocrisia di chi sta sempre con la ragione e mai col torto È un Dio che è morto nei campi di sterminio, Dio è morto coi miti della razza, Dio è morto con gli odi di partito, Dio è morto
Io penso che questa mia generazione è preparata a un mondo nuovo e a una speranza appena nata ad un futuro che ha già in mano a una rivolta senza armi perché noi tutti ormai sappiamo che se Dio muore è per tre giorni e poi risorge In ciò che noi crediamo Dio è risorto in ciò che noi vogliamo Dio è risorto nel mondo che faremo Dio è risorto!

Dinner With Drac Composer(s): Cory - Hayden Performer(s): John Zacherle
A dinner was served for three At Dracula's house by the sea The hors dourvres were fine But I choked on my wine When I learned that the main course was me
The waitress, a vampire named Perkins Was so very fond of small gherkins While serving tea She ate forty-three Which pickled her internal workings
Igor the scalpels go on the left With the pitchforks, Igor, Igor!
What a swimmer is Dracula's daughter But they use her pool less than they oughtta When her guests dive in there, they just disappear The blood stains the boats, but its easy to float Because blood is much thicker than water
Dracula, old friend, how are things in Transylvania
For dessert there was batwing confetti And the veins of a mummy named Betty I first frowned upon it But with ketchup on it It tasted very much like spaghetti
Ave, Maria, ave, Maria Chi ha, sofferto, viene da te Da, te che sai cos'e', la miseria e il dolore Dei giorni umani, maria le mani Ave, (ave) Maria, ave (ave) Maria Tu che hai dato, il figlio che hai Per, riscattere noi Sai, capire chi piange, chi ha sempre meno Maria il tuo seno
Ave, (ave) Maria, (ave) ave, (ave) Maria C'e', la notte, negli occhi miei Maria, rischiara il mio cammino E, portami lontano Ave, Maria Ave Maria, ave Maria Ave Maria, ave Maria Ave Maria, ave Maria Ave Maria, ave Maria Ave

Pobre Diablo Composer(s): Ramón Arcusa - Manuel de la Calva - Julio Iglesias - Fred Jorge Performer(s): Julio Iglesias; Alexandre Pires
Hoy pasaste por mi lado sin fijarte, sin mirarme de otros brazos
No quisiera ni pensarlo pero sigo como un tonto enamorado
Quien pudiera estar contigo y ser el otro Yo sabría retenerte poco a poco Y es que a fuerza de ignorarme has conseguido Que te quiera como a nadie yo he querido
Tú no sabes que se siente cuando alguien que tú quieres no te quiere
Quién diría que a mis años por tu culpa yo me siento un pobre diablo
Quien pudiera estar contigo y ser el otro Yo sabría retenerte poco a poco Y es que a fuerza de ignorarme has conseguido Que te quiera como a nadie yo he querido
Tú no sabes que se siente cuando alguien que tú quieres no te quiere
Quién diría que a mis años por tu culpa yo me siento un pobre diablo
Dingue
Composer(s): Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Pour faire ma pub' Descends ton slip J'te f'rai un tube Avec mon clip Image de fesse À bout portant Il pleut à verse Sur mon écran Ouvre les cuisses Que je te mate Mon audimat Est au beau fixe Les idées-chocs Le poids du fric Je baisse mon froc Sur cette éthique
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue
Au faire savoir Succède le voir À défaut d'être Il faut paraître J'ai la moutarde Qui m'monte au nez Passe la rhubarbe Voila l'séné À toi l'Oscar À moi l'Sept d'or À toi l'César À nous l'veau d'or Tu s'ras au Hit Je s'rai au Top J'te félicite Bravo mon pote
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue
Faut des gagneurs Faut des perdants Mort aux losers Place aux battants Vole une pomme Et tu es cuit Descends un homme T'as du sursis Un flic tabasse Un jeune en loques Ça laisse pas d'traces Justice en toc Un flic qui casse Comme un canaque Putain d'ta race Un beur qui claque
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue
La France qui gagne Les p'tits boulots Les années bagne Métro dodo La France qui trinque Dans les banlieues Passe-moi la s'ringue À être heureux Si t'as des fois Mal aux magouilles L'état de droit Qui part en couilles Si ça te ronge Aux entournures Prends donc l'éponge Aux fausses factures
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue
T'as pas 100 balles Pour le cancer T'as pas 100 balles Pour le SIDA T'as pas 100 balles Pour la misère T'as pas 100 balles Pendant c'temps-là 500 milliards Partent en fumée 500 milliards Partent en fusées 500 milliards Aux militaires 500 milliards Foutus en l'air
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue
Maman bobo J'ai mal au coeur Papa Rambo Fait un malheur Avec sa guerre En vidéo Qui rassérène Le populo Avec ses bombes Aseptisées Ses hécatombes Banalisées Il fait la r'tape Au consensus Sa force de frappe J'l'ai dans l'anus
La vie débloque À tout berzingue Dans mon époque Je deviens dingue

Slipping and sliding and playing domino Lefting and then Righting; it's not a crime you know You gotta tell your story boy, before it's time to go Are you ready for the country because it's time to go?
I was talkin' to the preacher - said God was on my side Then I ran to the hangman - he said "it's time to die" You gotta tell your story boy You know the reason why
Are you ready for the Country Because it's time to go?
