Gonna Buy Me A Dog Composer(s): Tommy Boyce; Bobby Hart Performer(s): The Monkees
You know my girl just called me up And she woke me from my sleep You should have heard the things she said You know she hurt my feelings deep I'm gonna buy me a dog [A dog, a dog! Why?] 'Cause I need a friend now [Say, you need all the friends you can get] I'm gonna buy me a dog My girl, my girl, don't love me no how
She used to bring me my newspaper 'Cause she knew where it was at She used to keep me so contented But I can teach a dog to do that I'm gonna buy me a dog 'Cause I need a friend now I'm gonna buy me a dog My girl, my girl, don't love me no how
Amor, te digo amor y suena diferente Amor que pronunciado en eso se convierte Y voy más lejos... Amor que todo entiende y da a todo un sentido Amor y punto Amor ¿porqué creía que te había perdido? Amor de mis pecados dale a la tormenta Que nadie sepa Cueste lo que cueste, duela lo que sienta Pero así es la vida Me cierras tantas puertas, tantas otras me abres Y no hay salida Sea lo que quieras, pase lo que nos pase... No sé no sé no sé Cuanto sabes de mí Pero dejo que me puedas Y permito que me lleves Poco importa lo que hagas de mí No sé no sé no sé Qué es lo que quieres de mí Me cuestionas, me estremeces Que me arrastres o me eleves Lo importante es lo que hagas de mí De mí... Suave, sereno... Amor, querido amor así se dan las cosas Que no te mientan Ni todo son espinas, ni todo son rosas No te imaginas Amor de mis amores y con esto acabo Así de claro Amor, ¿dónde estuviste amor, dónde has estado? No sé no sé no sé Cuanto sabes de mí Pero dejo que me puedas Y permito que me lleves Poco importa lo que hagas de mí No sé no sé no sé Qué es lo que quieres de mí Me cuestionas, me estremeces Que me arrastres o me eleves Lo importante es lo que hagas de mí Hay añores que vienen y van No vuelven a darse en la vida (erasé una vez la historia de una herida) hay amor que se lleva la vida (erasé una vez que quise que quería)

My Back Pages Composer(s): Bob Dylan Originally performed by: Bob Dylan Covered by various other artists
Crimson flames tied through my years Rollin high and mighty trapped Countless violent flaming roads Using ideas as my map "We'll meet on edges soon" said I Proud 'neath heated brow Ah but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now
Half wracked prejudice leaped forth "Rip down all hate" I screamed Lies that life is black and white Spoke from my skull. I dreamed Romantic flanks of musketeers Foundationed deep, somehow Ah but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand At the mongrel dogs who teach Fearing not I'd become my enemy In the instant that I preach Sisters led by confusion boats Mutiny from stern to bow Ah but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now
My guard stood hard when abstract threats Too noble to neglect Deceived me into thinking I had something to protect Good and bad I define these terms Quite clear, no doubt, somehow Ah but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now
Te Debo El Amor Y La Vida Composer(s): G. Carli - A. Segura Performer(s): Raphael
Fuiste tú quien dio a mi vida una razón Tú, fuiste tú, quien puso fe en mi corazón Tú, me diste tú, esa esperanza en un amanecer Y en ese sol que ya pensé no ver Y si me siento revivir y si el amor vuelvo a sentir Vida y amor yo te los debo a ti Me has dado tú toda mi fuerza y mi valor Tú, hiciste tú, que recobrara la ilusión Tú, y yo no sé lo que quisieras tú tener de mí Más sea lo que sea, pide que esté aquí Pide mi vida o pide amor, pide mis ojos, pídelos Vida y amor yo te los debo a ti

(Listen to my story...) Well, my baby told me Saturday That she was leaving town Well, now my baby's gone away She never comes around Oh well, she left me Oh well, she's left me, she's gone She bid me goodbye Oh well, she's moving-moving along Well, she left town on Sunday With a man named Clay Well listen, oh my baby All he wanna do is play Oh well, she'll leave him Oh well, she'll leave him one day She'll get all his money And then leave him one day

Gone Too Far Composer(s): David Malloy; Eddie Rabbitt; Even Stevens Performer(s): Eddie Rabbitt
I was heading home I hadn't planned on you I shouldn't be here now but tell me what can I do The way you're looking in my eyes Well I'm beginning to realize it's true It's you, and baby we've...
Gone too far, I'm gonna wake Gone too far, But I can't help
The way you look at me The way I look at you The way you're touching me The way I'm touching you
You're pulling all the right strings baby You're saying all the right things baby to me, to me and don't you know we've Gone too far, I'm gonna wake
Gone too far, but I can't Gone too far feels too good to turn back Gone too far But I can't help it I'm fall-alling
Te Contro Me ((French Version: Toi Contre Moi (Charles Aznavour)) Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Te contro me, che figura da idioti Quella dei genitori feriti Te contro me, due carri armati Vuoti e telecomandati,da uno stuolo di avvocati Te contro me, contro tutti si va' Senza avere rispetto e pieta' Muore l'amore, e ciascuno per se E i figli in mezzo perche'... Cos'hanno fatto mai di male, e perche' dovran pagare Questo bel capolavoro, perche' loro Che cos'e' che ne sanno dei problemi Loro e' il poco di buono si e' fatto io e te...
Te contro me, e risposta non c'e' Al perche' dei bambini smarriti So' che vorresti a me negarli Io dovrei come affittarli, ritirarli e riportarli Te contro me, questo gioco e' incosciente Non avra' vincitori ne' vinti Tiriamo i conti, sono loro i bambini Che perderanno di piu' No, alle uscite comandate Allegrie cronometrate, che la legge accordera' No, non mi va', ed i tuoi alla noia farmi guerra Buon pero' cielo e terra, ma da me non li avrai...
Te contro me, e' l'inferno e pazzia E pensare che era poesia... Te contro me, per la vita la tua favola infinita Nel mio letto accanto a te Te contro me, ci accomuna un passato Da salvare per quel che ci ha dato Noi faccia a faccia, un giorno in tribunale Fara' soltanto del male Vieni, mettiamoci d'accordo Non facciamo a chi e' piu' sordo Evitiamo il punto di... Non ritorno Perche' un giorno superato questo scoglio Ci ritorni il desiderio di te contro me...
My Baby's Arms Composer(s): Joseph McCarthy; Harry Tierney Original Dixieland Jazz Band and various other artists
I call my sweetheart "Baby" She calls me "Baby" too When there's anyone near us We never let them hear us But for embraces I know just where my place is
It seems my own sweet baby Just loves to baby me Tho' we both are grown up We refuse to own up She's like a mother How we do love each other
My baby's arms Hold all my charms My baby's eyes of blue Just seem to thrill me And fill me with a new sensation My baby's smile There all the while And if she'd tell me to stay I'd like to snuggle away And dream forever In my baby's arms
Feel the pressure rise Hear the whistle blow Found a ticket of her own accord Yeah I don't know Packed ya heart in her travelling bag And never said bye bye Something missing in the neighbourhood All the cryin' eyes I stirred my coffee with the same spoon To her favourite tune Gone shootin' My baby's gone shootin' Wrap herself around Like a second skin Backed her favourite nag But she could never win I took her number in another town She took another pill She was 'runnin' in' on overdrive A victim of overkill She never made it past the bedroom door What was she aiming for? Gone shootin' She's gone, gone gone gone (solo)
Toi Contre Moi ((Italian Version: Te Contro Me (Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Jaques Plante Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Toi contre moi, il est bête à pleurer cet orgueil des parents déchirés Toi contre moi c'est un combat, on se déchire on se bat aidés par nos avocat! Toi contre moi, contre le monde entier sans répit, sans merci, sans pitié Quand l'amour meurt, ça devient chacun pour soi mais les enfants dans tout ça? Quel est leur tort, quel est leur crime pourquoi seraient-ils victimes de notre échec à nous deux, pourquoi eux? Qu'ont-ils fait pour souffrir de nos problèmes eux qui sont ce que quand même nous avons fait de mieux?! Toi contre moi, quelle raison donner au pourquoi des enfants étonnés? Toi tu voudrais me les ôter, je devrais les emprunter les prendre et les rapporter! Toi contre moi, à ce jeu sans issue il ne sort ni vainqueur ni vaincu Au bout du compte, il n'y a que les enfants qui pour finir sont perdants! Non aux sorties à la sauvette, aux dimanches et jours de fêtes que peut accorder la loi chaque mois! Tes amis auront beau dire et beau faire Je remuerai ciel et terre tu ne les auras pas! Toi contre moi, c'est l'enfer, c'est l'horreur et pourtant hier, c'était le bonheur! Toi contre moi, c'était la vie, ses merveilles et ses folies dans tes bras et dans ton lit! Toi contre moi, ce passé qui nous lie il faudrait le garder à tout prix Se retrouver face à face au Tribunal ne nous ferait que du mal! Viens! Faisons amende honorable, évitons l'irréparable et le point de non retour, pour qu'un jour affleurant de ce drame pitoyable il ne reste plus que toi contre moi, mon amour!
My Baby Said Yes (Yip Yip De Hootie) Composer(s): Robin; Walters Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Louis Jourdan
I feel so happy, I wanna shout (Well, tell me Bing Tell me what its all about?) I found my one idea And this time Im sure its real
Yip yip de hootie Got me a beauty She sure is a dream My baby said yes She said yes, she said yes She didnt say no
(Cock cock-a-doodle Youre off your noodle Youre way off the beam Cause baby said yes She said yes, she said yes She couldnt say no)
Knock me a daisy (Now what would I do with a daisy, old thing?) You wear it and bear it (There, you sound kinda crazy) Im happy that way
Hi diddle diddle March down the middle And now were a team Cause baby said yes She said yes, she said yes Yes, she couldnt say no
Yip yip yip de hootie Got me a beauty She sure is a dream My baby said yes She said yes, she said yes She didnt say no
Cock-a-doodle off my noodle Off the beam Cause baby said yes She said yes, she said yes She didnt say no
Knock me a daisy That sure was a daisy That one was hazy But Im happy that way
Hi diddle-diddle March down the middle And now were a team Cause baby said yes She said yes, she said yes Yes, she couldnt say no She couldnt say no No, no
