    Lumbered
    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse - Anthony Newley
    Performer(s): Anthony Newley
    and multiple other artists



    I've been trapped, lumbered!

    I have been lumbered!
    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    But, I'm never gonna get lumbered again

    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    And I don't L-i-k-e it one small bit
    I'm too young to be a father
    There are lots of things I'd rather be
    Like working down a coal P-i-t pit!

    When I ought to be completely unencumbered
    I've been forced to buy a ring and say Amen
    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    But, I'm never gonna get lumbered again

    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    I'm completely C-h-o-k-e-d choked!
    Bang, all my lovely visions
    I've been forced to make decisions
    Wish I had a quid for ev'ry fag I've smoked

    When I think of all the birds with whom I've slumbered
    Now I'll only ever see them now and then
    At the weekends and whenever the wife's not around!
    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    But, I'm never gonna get lumbered again

    If I ever get my hands upon the idiot that wrote
    "Into ev'ry life a little rain must fall"
    I shall take his book of poems
    And I'll stuff 'em up his ... throat
    'Cause it seems to me as though I get it all!

    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    And the idea doesn't please me very much
    I was not prepared for marriage
    I would catch a boat from Harwich
    But I don't speak any D-u-t-c-h Dutch

    Though I know it's true a bachelor's days are numbered
    I think I should have the choice of saying when
    I've been L-U-M-B-E-R-E-D lumbered,
    But, I'm never gonna get lumbered again.

    I've been L-u-m-b-e-r-e-d lumbered
    It's enough to drive a fellow M-a-d!
    I am scarcely past my childhood
    I still play the games a child would
    I'm still playing mums and dads, as you can see

    When I think of all the chicks with whom I've rumba'd
    For the wedding march, I'm lumbered with a hen! (Quack, quack!)
    I've been quite unduly, well and truly lumbered
    But, I'm never gonna get
    Never gonna get, never, never
    Never gonna get, never gonna get, never never
    Never gonna get lumbered again!

    (Refrain)
    J'ai oublié le jour et l'nom d'la rue
    J'ai oublié mes bagues sur ton piano
    Mais jamais j'oublierai comme c'était beau, comme c'était chaud
    J'va toujours me rappeler qu't'as pas essayé d'm'impressionner
    T'étais pas le plus beau ni le plus doux
    Mais on a rie ensemble des autre fous
    Qui font l'amour comme on apprend des livres
    Ou dans les vues
    J'ai oublié le jour et le nom d'la rue
    J'ai oublié le jour mais jamais j'oublierai
    T'étais là quand j'ai eu besoin de toi
    T'étais pas là pour me rassurer
    T'étais pas là pour me consoler
    Mais m'écouter
    Comme j'en avais besoin

    (Refrain)
    T'étais pas là pour me consoler
    T'étais pas là pour me rassurer
    Mais m'écouter

    Lulu's Back In Town
    Composer(s): Harry Warren - Al Dubin
    First performance/First recording by: Dick Powell & Ted Fio Rito and His Orch. - 1935
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Where's that careless chambermaid?
    Where'd she put my razor blade?
    She mislaid it, I'm afraid
    It's gotta be foun'!
    Ask her when she cleaned my room
    What she did with my perfume
    I just can't lose it
    I've gotta use it
    'Cause Lulu's back in town

    Gotta get my old tuxedo pressed
    Gotta sew a button on my vest
    'Cause tonight I've gotta look my best
    Lulu's back in town
    Gotta get a half a buck somewhere
    Gotta shine my shoes and slick my hair
    Gotta get myself a boutonniere
    Lulu's back in town
    You can tell all my pets
    All my Harlem coquettes
    Mister Otis regrets
    That he won't be aroun'
    You can tell the mailman not to call
    I ain't comin' home until the fall
    And I might not get back home at all
    Lulu's back in town

    You can bet I've got it bad
    Best complaint I've ever had
    We'll be stepping out tonight
    An' struttin', an' how
    We're in for the swellest time
    Finish up without a dime
    Look here, you fellers
    I'll make you jealous
    My Lulu, she's a wow

    Gotta get my old tuxedo pressed
    Gotta sew a button on my vest
    'Cause tonight I've gotta look my best
    Lulu's back in town
    Gotta get a half a buck somewhere
    Gotta shine my shoes and slick my hair
    Gotta get myself a boutonniere
    Lulu's back in town
    You can tell all my pets
    All my blondes and brunettes
    Mister Otis regrets
    That he won't be aroun'
    You can tell the mailman not to call
    I ain't comin' home until the fall
    And I might not get back home at all
    Lulu's back in town

    Montgomery In The Rain
    Composer(s): Steve Young
    Performer(s): Steve Young; Hank Williams



    Well here I am again down in Montgomery Alabam
    My luck ain't never been up but I'm used to it down
    So all you people don't look at me and frown
    I don't want to stay here and I'm just passing through your town
    And I just came back here to see an old stained window pane
    Before you tear it all down and bring out your crane
    I did want to see Montgomery in the rain......

    Around these streets and old houses alot of changes I been through
    From the top of the town to washing cars, being down out and blue
    And I once met a woman here with ways like I never had seen
    We used to rambel between here and old New Orleans
    So I've just come back here to remember a joy and a pain
    To look back to a year through a tear in an old window pane
    And I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.....

    So you don't have to hide your baby you don't have to go get no gun
    I know I look funny to you all honey but I'm just one
    Who was once from here and now whose come back again
    And I'm not asking for nothing but my song a cemetary wind
    And if its all right with you before I get back on the train
    I want to go out by Hank's tombstone and cry up a thunder storm chain
    'cause I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.......

    Enfant de l'amour
    Portrait de Gainsbourg
    Deux cent soixante-dix jours à ce jour
    Lulu
    J'ai lu
    Dans tes grand yeux de velours
    Tant d'amour

    Entends sous ses doigts
    Vibrer le Yamaha
    C'est du Cole Porter
    Et du papa

    Tu es comme moi
    Comme moi-
    Tié chinois
    Mais tu as l'âme slave de papa

    Rends à ton papa
    L'amour que tu lui dois
    Tu peux le compter avec tes doigts

    Composer(s): Larry Beckett; Tim Buckley
    Performer(s): Tim Buckley



    Under a loop of stars in the vulgar cold
    The dead airport lay
    By the pebbles of the highway
    Through the snail clouds
    You soared to your lover
    I hurried away my darling
    With a howl in my throat

    Hiding inside the weeds
    In the orange grove
    The black rooster crowed
    Through the hollow of the midnight

    With my shot blood
    With stains on my fingers
    I run with the damned, my darling
    They have taught me to laugh

    L'orchestra suona l'ultimo refrain
    Non so se devo andarmene o restar
    Io sto cercando di convincermi che poi
    Non è cambiato niente fra noi

    L'ultimo valzer con te
    ho ritrovato l'amore
    Io ballo insieme a te
    Un valzer ch'è già finito

    Non c'è più molto tempo per parlar
    E vedo te che stai per andar
    Ma come faccio per convincerti non so
    Che sei la cosa più importante che lo

    L'ultimo valzer con te
    ho ritrovato l'amore
    Io ballo insieme a te
    Un valzer ch'è già finito

    Mentre te ne vai
    Sento che oramai
    Tu mi lasci ma non è per sempre

    La, la, la ...

    L'ultimo valzer con te
    ho ritrovato l'amore
    Io ballo insieme a te
    Un valzer ch'è già finito

    La, la, la ...

    The people came and listened
    Some of them came and played
    Others gave flowers away, yes they did
    Down in Monterey
    Down in Monterey

    Young Gods smiled upon the crowd
    Their music being born of love
    Children danced night and day
    Religion was being born
    Down in Monterey

    The birds and the airplane did fly
    Oh, Ravi Shankars music made me cry
    The Who exploded into fire and light
    Hugh Masakela's music was black as night
    The Grateful Dead blew everybodies mind
    Jimi Hendrix baby,believe me, set the world on fire, yeah
    His Majesty, Prince Jones, smiled as he moved among the crowd
    Ten thousand electric guitars were grooving real loud, yeah

    You want to find the truth in life
    Don't pass music by
    and you know I would not lie, no I would not lie
    No, I would not lie
    Down in Monterey

    Three days of understanding of moving with one another
    Even the cops grooved with us
    Do you believe me, yeah?
    Down in Monterey

    I think that maybe I'm dreaming
    Monterey
    Down in monterey
    Did you hear what I said?

    I wondered should I go or should I stay
    The band had only one more song to play
    And then I saw you out the corner of my eyes
    A little girl alone and so shy
    I had the last waltz with you
    Two lonely people together
    I fell in love with you
    The last waltz should last forever
    But the love we had was goin' strong
    Through the good and bad we'd get along
    And then the flame of love died in your eye
    My heart was broke in two when you said goodbye
    I had the last waltz with you
    Two lonely people together
    I fell in love with you
    The last waltz should last forever
    It's all over now
    Nothing left to say
    Just my tears and the orchestra playing
    La la la la la la la la la la
    La la la la la la la la la la
    I had the last waltz with you

    Avec leurs gniards
    Mignons mignards
    Leur beau matou
    Leur gros toutou
    Les pharisiens
    Les béotiens
    Les aoûtiens
    Dans leur auto
    Roulent presto
    Tombeau ouvert
    Descendant vers
    La grande mare
    En passant par
    Montélimar

    Dites d'urgence
    À ces engeances
    De malheur
    Et à leurs
    Gniards
    Que chiens, chats
    N'aiment
    Pas l'nougat
    Même
    Même celui
    D'Montélimar

    Hélas bientôt
    Le mal d'auto
    Va déranger
    Les passagers
    Le beau matou
    Le gros toutou
    Pas fiers du tout
    - Ça fait frémir -
    S'en vont vomir
    Et même pis
    Sur les tapis
    Et les coussins
    A beaux dessins
    C'est très malsain

    C'est très fâcheux
    C'est plus du jeu
    Et cetera
    Et alors à
    Montélimar
    On en a marre
    Du cauchemar
    Boutant presto
    Hors de l'auto
    Le beau matou
    Le gros toutou
    Ces handicaps
    Sur Digne, Gap
    On met le cap

    Alors tous ces
    Petits poucets
    Ces beaux matous
    Ces gros toutous
    En ribambelle
    Ont sans appel
    Droit au scalpel
    Les aoûtiens
    Les béotiens
    Qui font ça n'ont
    Pas d'âme, non
    Que leur auto
    Bute presto
    Contre un poteau!

    L'ultimo Romantico
    Composer(s): Vito Pallavicini - Pino Donaggio
    Performer(s): Pino Donaggio; Lara Saint Paul



    L’ultimo
    Sono io l’ultimo romantico
    Sono io quello che ti può
    Donare un fiore
    E capire da questo
    Dall’espressione del viso
    Dal tremore di una mano
    Se mi ami ...

    L’ultimo
    L’ultimo romantico di un mondo
    Che si può commuovere
    Guardando due colombi
    Baciarsi su una piazza
    Incuranti della gente
    E li può calpestare
    per la fretta d’arrivare

    Perché ...
    se una rosa è una rosa
    Da quando c’è il mondo

    Io devo cambiare ...
    Perché..
    se il mare e il cielo, il sole e il vento
    Non cambiano mai ...
    Perché ...

    se l’amore è l’amore
    Da quando c’è il mondo
    Io devo cambiare ...

    Perché ...
    ci son già tante cose
    Che stanno cambiando
    L’amore non può ...

    L’ultimo
    L’ultimo romantico di un mondo
    Che si può commuovere
    Guardando due ragazzi
    Baciarsi su una piazza
    Incuranti della gente
    Come facciamo adesso
    Come facciamo noi due

    I might be movin' to Montana soon
    Just to raise me up a crop of
    Dental Floss

    Raisin' it up
    Waxen it down
    In a little white box
    That I can sell uptown

    By myself I wouldn't
    Have no boss,
    But I'd be raisin' my lonely
    Dental Floss

    Raisin' my lonely
    Dental Floss

    Well I just might grow me some bees
    But I'd leave the sweet stuff
    To somebody else . . . but then, on the other hand I would

    Keep the wax
    'N melt it down
    Pluck some Floss
    'N swish it aroun'

    I'd have me a crop
    An' it'd be on top (that's why I'm movin' to Montana)

    Movin' to Montana soon
    Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon (yes I am)
    Movin' to Montana soon
    Gonna be a mennil-toss flykune

    I'm pluckin' the ol'
    Dennil Floss
    That's growin' on the prairie
    Pluckin' the floss!
    I plucked all day an' all nite an' all
    Afternoon . . .

    I'm ridin' a small tiny hoss
    (His name is Mighty Little)
    He's a good hoss
    Even though
    He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
    Blanket on anyway
    He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
    Blanket on anyway
    Any way

    I'm pluckin' the ol'
    Dennil Floss
    Even if you think it is a little silly, folks
    I don't care if you think it's silly, folks
    I don't care if you think it's silly, folks

    I'm gonna find me a horse
    Just about this big,
    An' ride him all along the border line

    With a
    Pair of heavy-duty
    Zircon-encrusted tweezers in my hand
    Every other wrangler would say
    I was mighty grand

    By myself I wouldn't
    Have no boss,
    But I'd be raisin' my lonely
    Dental Floss

    Raisin' my lonely
    Dental Floss
    Raisin' my lonely
    Dental Floss

    Well I might
    Ride along the border
    With my tweezers gleamin'
    In the moon-lighty night

    And then I'd
    Get a cuppa cawfee
    'N give my foot a push . . .
    Just me 'n the pygmy pony
    Over by the Dennil Floss Bush

    'N then I might just
    Jump back on
    An' ride
    Like a cowboy
    Into the dawn to Montana

    Movin' to Montana soon
    (Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
    Movin' to Montana soon
    (Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
    Movin' to Montana soon
    (Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)
    Movin' to Montana soon
    (Yippy-Ty-O-Ty-Ay)....

    Lullaby To A Little Jitterbug
    Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Saul Chaplin
    Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters



    Do-do-do, do-do-do-do
    Little jitterbug don’t cry
    You’ll be swingin’ by and by
    You are just a tiny tot
    And until you’ve grown a lot
    Your rattle will have to do

    Little jitterbug go slow
    You’ll be rockin’ ‘fore you know
    Daddy won’t be home ‘til dawn
    When he left, he took his horn
    Someday you will have one too

    If you’re like your Pa,
    Sonny, you’ll go far
    My you’ll look grand
    Leadin’ a band
    Foolish it may be
    But this dream’s on me
    And it’s for you
    Make it come true

    Little jitterbug it’s dawn
    Why dream a dream of Daddy’s horn
    If you’re good and go to sleep
    He will give you one to keep
    Little jitterbug go sleep

    Sonny, go to sleep
    Swing will always keep
    When you’re of age
    You’ll top the page
    Listen to your Ma
    ‘Cos she taught your Pa
    His swing is true
    Yours will be too

    Little jitterbug it’s dawn, ah-ha-ha
    Dream a dream of Daddy’s horn
    If you’re good and go to sleep
    He will give you one to keep
    Little jitterbug, go sleep
    Little jitterbug, go sleep

    Montana
    Composer(s): Ruth Byrd; Harold Weeks



    For many a year, from the land I hold dear
    I've wandered unhappy, alone
    and now at the end, I haven't a friend
    and never a place to call home
    but often I see, in dreams dear to me
    that long ago land that I knew
    the Queen of the earth, the land of my birth
    Montana, Montana, it's you

    I try to recall and to picture it all
    the wonders I knew as a child
    the sweep of the plain, the gold of the grain
    the ridges brush tangled and wild
    and oft times I try to understand why I bartered the old for the new
    a prodigal son, my wandering done
    Montana, I'm coming to you

    Oh I long, how I long for Montana
    and the sweet scent of pine in the air
    where the lark every evening sings melodies rare
    to the sage brush and sweet prickly pear
    Oh I long, how I long for Montana
    when the sinking sun sets all aglow
    in the heart of the Rockies, the land of my dreams
    it is there that my heart longs to go

    Lullaby Of The Leaves
    Composer(s): Bernice Petkere - Joe Young
    Performer(s): Ina Hayward
    and multiple other artists



    Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby
    In the sunny South when I was a tot so high
    And now that I have grown
    And myself alone

    Cradle me where Southern skies
    Can watch me with a million eyes
    Sing me to sleep
    Lullaby of the leaves

    Cover me with heaven's blue
    And let me dream a dream or two
    Sing me to sleep
    Lullaby of the leaves

    I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
    I'm hearing a song, a song thru the trees
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    That fine melody caressing the shore
    Familiar to me, I've heard it before
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, that's Southland

    Don't I feel it in my soul
    And don't I know I've reached my goal
    Sing me to sleep
    Lullaby of the Leaves

    Montagne Verdi
    Composer(s): Gianni Bella; A. Bella; Giampiero Bigazzi
    Performer(s): Marcella Bella



    Mi ricordo montagne verdi
    e le corse di una bambina
    con l'amico mio più sincero
    un coniglio dal muso nero
    Poi un giorno mi prese il treno
    l'erba il prato e quello che era mio
    scomparivano piano piano
    e piangendo parlai con Dio
    Quante volte ho cercato il sole
    quante volte ho mangiato sale
    la città aveva mille sguardi
    io sognavo montagne verdi
    Il mio destino è di stare accanto a te
    con te vicino più paura non avrò
    e un po' bambina tornerò
    Mi ricordo montagne verdi
    quella sera negli occhi tuoi
    quando hai detto s'è fatto tardi
    t'accompagno se tu lo vuoi
    Quella nebbia le tue parole
    la tua storia è la mia storia
    poi nel buio senza parlare
    ho dormito con te sul cuore
    Io ti amo mio grande amore
    io ti amo mio primo amore
    quante volte ho cercato il sole
    quante volte ho cercato il sole
    la la la...
    Il mio destino è di stare accanto a te
    con te vicino più paura non avrò
    e un po' più donna io sarò
    Montagne verdi nei tuoi occhi rivedrò

    Hear the breeze, in the trees
    Hear the birds, softly singing
    And the song that they sing
    Is our lullabye of love

    Hear the breeze' sweet refrain
    Every raindrop is singing
    And the song that they sing
    Is a lullabye of love

    Forever, and 'ever
    Our love will be true
    Forever, and 'ever
    I'll always love you

    Every beat of my heart
    Says "I love you,
    I love you, I love you"
    And the song in my heart
    Is a lullabye of love

    Forever, and 'ever
    Our love will be true
    Forever, and 'ever
    I'll always love you

    Forever, and 'ever
    Our love will be true

    Monster Mash
    Composer(s): Leonard Capizzi; Bobby "Boris" Pickett
    Originally performed by: Bobby "Boris" Pickett



    I was working in the lab late one night
    When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
    For my monster, from his slab began to rise
    And suddenly, to my surprise
    he did the mash
    He did the monster mash
    the monster mash
    it was a graveyard smash
    he did the mash
    it caught on in a flash
    he did the mash
    He did the monster mash

    From my laboratory in the castle east
    To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
    The ghouls all came from their humble abode
    To get a jolt from my electrode

    They did the mash
    They did the monster mash
    the monster mash
    It was a graveyard smash
    they did the mash
    It caught on in a flash
    they did the mash
    They did the monster mash

    The zombies were having fun
    the party had just begun
    The guests included Wolfman
    Dracula and his son

    The scene was rocking, all were digging the sound
    Igor on chains backed by his baying hounds
    The Coffin Baggers were about to arrive
    With their vocal group, The Cryptkicker Five

    They played the mash
    They played the monster mash
    the monster the mash
    It was a graveyard smash
    they played the mash
    It caught on in a flash
    they played the mash
    They played the monster mash

    Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
    Seems he was troubled by just one thing
    Opened the lid and shook his fist, and said
    "Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

    It's now the mash
    It's now the monster mash
    the monster mash
    And it's a graveyard smash
    it's now the mash
    It caught on in a flash
    it's now the mash
    It's now the monster mash

    Now everything's cool
    Drac's a part of the band
    And my monster mash is the hit of the land
    For you, the living
    this mash was meant, too
    When you get to my door
    tell them Boris sent you

    Then you can mash
    Then you can monster mash
    the monster mash
    And do my graveyard smash
    then you can mash
    You'll catch on in a flash
    then you can mash
    Then you can monster mash

    Grrrr... mash....
    Easy Igor, you impetuous vampire
