La Bien Paga Composer(s): Juan Mostazo Performer(s): Raphael; Bebo & Cigala; Miguel De Molina
Na te debo Na te pido Me voy de tu vera, olvídame ya Que he pagao con oro tus carnes morenas No maldigas, paya, que estamos en paz No te quiero No me quieras Si to me lo diste, yo na te pedí No me eches en cara que to lo perdiste También a tu vera yo to lo perdí Bien paga Si tú eres la bien paga Porque tus besos compré Y a mí te supiste dar Por un puñao de parne Bien paga, bien paga Bien paga fuiste, mujer No te engaño Quiero a otra No creas por eso que te traicioné No cayó en mis brazos Me dio sólo un beso El único beso que yo no pagué Na te pido Na me llevo Entre esas paredes dejo sepultas Penas y alegrías, que te doy y me diste Y esas joyas que ahora pa' otro lucirás
Don't Treat Me Like A Child Composer(s): Mike Hawker - John Schroeder Performer(s): Helen Shapiro
Well, just because Im in my teens And I still go to school Dont think that I been childish dreams Im nobodys fool Dont mother me, that makes me wild And please dont treat me like a child
Its often said that youngsters Should be seen and not be heard But I want you to realise That its quite absurd Dont wanna be so meek and mild So please dont treat me like a child
Gonna be my own adviser Cause my minds my own Then I will be much the wiser My own point of view Has got to be known
The best years of my life, I know Are those when I am young And since Im sure that this is so Gotta have my fun So if I feel like running wild Well, please dont treat me like a child
Gonna be my own adviser Cause my minds my own Then I will be much the wiser My own point of view Has got to be known
The best years of my life, I know Are those when I am young And since Im sure that this is so Gotta have my fun So if I feel like running wild Well, please dont treat me like a child
La Bicyclette Composer(s): Francis Lai - Pierre Barouh First release by: Yves Montand - 1969
Quand on partait de bon matin Quand on partait sur les chemins À bicyclette Nous étions quelques bons copains Y avait Fernand y avait Firmin Y avait Francis et Sébastien Et puis Paulette
On était tous amoureux d'elle On se sentait pousser des ailes À bicyclette Sur les petits chemins de terre On a souvent vécu l'enfer Pour ne pas mettre pied à terre Devant Paulette
Faut dire qu'elle y mettait du cur C'était la fille du facteur À bicyclette Et depuis qu'elle avait huit ans Elle avait fait en le suivant Tous les chemins environnants À bicyclette
Quand on approchait la rivière On déposait dans les fougères Nos bicyclettes Puis on se roulait dans les champs Faisant naître un bouquet changeant De sauterelles, de papillons Et de rainettes
Quand le soleil à l'horizon Profilait sur tous les buissons Nos silhouettes On revenait fourbus contents Le cur un peu vague pourtant De n'être pas seul un instant Avec Paulette
Prendre furtivement sa main Oublier un peu les copains La bicyclette On se disait c'est pour demain J'oserai, j'oserai demain Quand on ira sur les chemins À bicyclette

La Bête Immonde Composer(s): Claude Lemesle - Michel Fugain Performer(s): Michel Fugain
Elle est vivante, elle a encore La haine au ventre, la rage au corps La bête immonde
Qu'elle tourne au loin comme un vautour Ou Rampe et ronge tout autour La bête immonde
Depuis le temps qu'elle a fait le trou De sa tanière grise Là-bas, ici, partout Au coeur de chacun de nous Elle est l'enfant que la bêtise A conçu avec l'ombre La bête immonde
Depuis le temps qu'on laisse faire Tous les suppôts de son enfer La bête immonde
Qu'elle a vomi des Gestapo Dans toutes les guerres, tous les ghettos La bête immonde
Que les salauts dans les salons Lui trouvent des excuses Lui trouvent des raisons Plébiscitées par les cons Elle est la fille de la rue Qui naît des décombres La bête immonde
O pleure, pleure ma mère la terre Des larmes de siècles et de sang O pleure, pleure des gouttes d'océan
Sur les chants qui montent des wagons Les camps, les tortionnaires Les frères qui clouent leurs frères Au poteau des religions
O pleure ma mère la terre Au fond de tes entrailles gronde La bête immonde
Mais qui va lui planter le pieu dans le coeur? Qui va l'amputer du goût de l'horreur?
Elle qui étrangle les ethnies Etrangle les poètes Etouffe les hommes honnêtes Au baillon des calomnies Il lui faut faire sauter la tête Avec sa propre bombe La bête immonde
Depuis qu'elle nous pollue l'histoire A coup de glaive, à coup de gloire La bête immonde
Que son crachat sur ton drapeau Dépend de la couleur de peau La bête immonde
Depuis qu'elle rôde avec sa faux Emblème de son règne Depuis qu'elle dit Je t'aime Aux cagoules, aux échafauds Il faur cribler de chrysanthèmes Jusqu'à ce qu'elle succombe La bête immonde
O pleure, pleure ma mère la terre Des larmes de siècles et de sang O pleure, pleure des gouttes d'océan
Sur les bouquins, dans les bûchers Les cris des ratonnades Sur les croix des croisades Et les continents barbelés
O pleure, ma mère la terre Au fond de tes entrailles gronde La bête immonde
Mais qui va lui planter le pieu dans le coeur? Qui va l'amputer du goût de l'horreur?
O pleure, ma mère la terre Au fond de tes entrailles gronde La bête immonde
O pleure, ma mère la terre Au fond de tes entrailles gronde La bête immonde

Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
Given you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It'll never do somehow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on
Don't think twice, it's all right
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
But don't think twice, it's all right
So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never did before
An' it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walkin' down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right
So long, honey babe
I'm walking down that long and lonesome road
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word, gal
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right
La Berlue Composer(s): Françoise Hardy Performer(s): Françoise Hardy; Etienne Daho
Pour voir l'intérieur de ma tête ses eaux-plates, ses tempêtes et ses idées reçues pour voir l'intérieur de mon âme ses minuscules drames ses états mal vécus pour voir l'intérieur de mon cur ses films et ses erreurs et son peu d'étendue pour voir l'intérieur de ma tête il te faut des lunettes car tu as la berlue
Don't The Girls All Get Prettier At Closing Time Composer(s): Baker Knight Performer(s): Mickey Gilley; Ralph Emery
The girls all get prettier at closing time They all begin to look like movie stars The girls all get prettier at closing time When the change starts taking place It puts a glow on every face Of the falling angels of the back street bars
If I could rate'em on a scale from 1 to 10 I'm lookin' for a 9 but 8 would slip right in A few more drinks and I might slip to a 5 or even a 4 But when tomorrow morning comes And I wake up with a number 1 I swear I'll never do it anymore
The girls all get prettier at closing time They all begin to look like movie stars The girls all get prettier at closing time When the change starts taking place It puts a glow on every face Of the falling angels of the back street bars
Now, I don't mean to criticize the girls at all I know Robert Redford, even overhauls We all picture in our minds a girl that looks just right Ain't it funny, ain't it strange The way a man's opinion changes When he starts to face that lonely night
The girls all get prettier at closing time They all begin to look like movie stars The girls all get prettier at closing time When the change starts taking place It puts a glow on every face Of the falling angels of the back street bars
La Belleza Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute; Miguel Bosé
Enemigo de la guerra Y su reverso, la medalla no propuse otra batalla que librar al corazón De ponerse cuerpo a tierra bajo el paso de una historia Que iba a alzar hasta la gloria el poder de la razón Y ahora que ya no hay trincheras el combate es la escalera Y el que trepe a lo mas alto pondrá a salvo su cabeza Aunque se hunda en el asfalto la belleza... Míralos, como reptiles al acecho de la presa negociando en cada mesa maquillajes de ocasión siguen todos los raíles Que conduzcan a la cumbre locos por que nos deslumbre su parásita ambición Antes iban de profetas Y ahora el éxito es su meta mercaderes, traficantes mas que nausea dan tristeza no rozaron ni un instante la belleza... Y me hablaron de futuros fraternales, solidarios donde todo lo falsario acabaría en el pilón Y ahora que se cae el muro ya no somos tan iguales tanto vendes, tanto vales ¡viva la revolución! Reivindico el espejismo De intentar ser uno mismo ese viaje hacia la nada que consiste en la certeza de encontrar en tu mirada la belleza...
(Don't That Take The) Rag Off'n The Bush Composer(s): Johnny Mercer - Gene De Paul Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney; Frank Comstock
Just remember, your Government is spending one million dollars on one bomb just to blow your homes off the face of the Earth So show your 'preciation... Don't that take the rag off'n the bush? Don't that take the tassel off'n the corn? Of all the very ordinary most unloved unneccesary Places on this earth they settled on your'n They settled on your'n As sho' as you're born They settled on your'n Don't that take the cake At the church social bake Don't that take the huckleberry pie? Think of all the rest Thinkin' we is the best, It clear makes you bust right down and cry Don't that take the tail off'n the bear? Don't that take the heffer out of the barn? Of all the very ordinary, most unloved, unnecessary Places on this earth, the fav'rite is our'n The fav'rite is our'n Not anyplace fur'eign The fav'rite is our'n! Dogpatch! Don't that take the beard off'n a goat? Don't that take the nap off'n the yarn? Of all the very ordinary, most unloved, unneccesary Places on this earth, the fav'rite is our'n Don't that take the rag off'n the bush? Don't that take the tassel off'n the corn? Of all the very ordinary, most unloved, unneccesary Places on this earth, the fav'rite is our'n... Dog Patch!

Ô la belle vie Sans amour Sans soucis Sans problème Hum la belle vie On est seul On est libre Et l'on s'aime On s'amuse à passer avec tous ses copains Des nuits blanches Qui se penchent Sur les petits matins Mais la belle vie Sans amour Sans soucis Sans problème
Oui la belle vie On s'enlace On est triste Et l'on traîne Alors pense que moi je t'aime Et quand tu auras compris Réveille-toi Je serai là Pour toi
Don't That Beat All Composer(s): Les Vandyke Performer(s): Adam Faith
Don't that beat all I ever heard, dear Don't that beat every single word You say you've changed your mind Oh Baby, that's unkind They say that love is blind The more I look, the more I find
Don't that beat all I ever saw, dear Don't that beat all and that's for sure More fool that other guy He's gonna get the old go-by Well, well, don't that beat all
Play the sad, sad, story
You change your lovers fast So our affair is past But now the die is cast And he lasts longest who lasts last
There's one thing more I wanna say, dear When you come begging back one day I'll take one look at you And then I'll tell you what you can do Well, well, ha-ha Don't that beat all
The Good Life ((Adapted from: La Belle Vie (by Sacha Distel) - 1963/1964)) Composer(s): Sacha Distel - Jack Reardon Performer(s): Tony Bennett - 1963 and multiple other artists
Oh, the good life, full of fun Seems to be the ideal Yes, the good life let's you hide All the sadness you feel
You won't really fall in love For you can't take the chance So be honest with yourself Don't try to fake romance
It's the good life To be free and explore the unknown Like the heartaches When you learn you must face them alone
Please remember, I still love you And in case you don't know Well, just wake up Kiss the good life "hel-lo"

La Belle Histoire D'amour Composer(s): Edith Piaf - Charles Dumont Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Elaine Paige
Quand un homme vient vers moi Je vais toujours vers lui Je vais vers je-ne-sais-quoi Je marche dans la nuit Je cherche à t'oublier Et c'est plus fort que moi Je me fais déchirer Je n'appartiens qu'à toi...
Je n'oublierai jamais Nous deux, comme on s'aimait Toutes les nuits, tous les jours ...La belle histoire d'amour... ...La belle histoire d'amour... Pourquoi m'as-tu laissée? Je suis seule à pleurer Toute seule à chercher... Un jour où j'attendais J'ai longtemps attendu. J'espérais... J'espérais... Tu n'es pas revenu Je me suis révoltée Je me suis résignée J'ai crié, j'ai pleuré J'ai nié, j'ai prié...

C'est vrai que je suis né d'accouplements immondes Entre une veuve noire et un crapaud Toi ta mère est blonde et ton père te couvre de cadeaux Autre monde autres façons La belle et la bête c'est un conte de fées Qui te distrayait quand tu lisais tes illustrés Moi la bête je pleurais Moi la bête je souffrais Toi la belle tu riais, tu riais, tu riais La démarche d'un ours et la vertu d'un singe Je n'étais pas un homme ou presque pas Toute la province pourchassait le terrible animal Mais tu m'as tendu la main La belle et la bête on s'était retrouvés Et plus je saignais, plus je mourrais, plus je vivais Moi la bête je rêvais Moi la bête j'espérais Toi la belle tu soignais, tu calmais, tu aimais Les abracadabras de la fée Carabosse Se sont désintégrés devant l'amour Viens dans mon carrosse Je t'emmène au grand bal de la cour Je suis jeune et je suis beau La belle et la bête il faut les oublier Morts et enterrés sous la poussière du passé Moi la bête je suis là Moi la bête je suis là Toi la belle tu es là Tu es là, on est là!

La Belle Est Arrivée Composer(s): Étienne Roda-Gil - Julien Clerc Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Pour que la belle arrive Il faut avoir gagné Dans un excès de confiance Avoir perdu après Adieu le téléphone Les rendez-vous plombés Adieu toutes les autres La belle est arrivée
Adieu la vie des hommes Les Saints du calendrier Pour le temps qui me reste La belle est arrivée...
Pour que la belle arrive Il faut avoir perdu Dans un dernier coup de reins Avoir gagné après Il va falloir se battre Il va falloir gagner Adieu toutes les autres La belle est arrivée
