Chicka Boom Composer(s): Bob Merrill Performer(s): Guy Mitchell; Mitch Miller, His Orch. & Chorus
Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, she's singin' Her shoes paddy-wack in front and the back And her yellow curls go swingin' Bells just rang, Bo-o-o-ing My eyes lit up and my heart went bang Her shoes paddy-wack in the front and the back Chicka-boom, chicka-racky-boom
It was way up in Alaska And the moment that I passed her In my heart a little bugle blew attack Though I knew I should resist her I walked up to her and kissed her And she didn't slap my face, she kissed me back
Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, she's singin' Her shooes paddy-wack in front and the back And her yellow curls go swingin' Bells just rang, Bo-o-o-ing My eyes lit up and my heart went bang Her shoes paddy-wack in the front and the back Chicka-boom, chicka-racky-boom
Told me she was from Seattle Where her Daddy raises cattle But she's far away from home and so forlorn Said the Yukon had her freezin' And it would be mighty pleasin' If I'd hug her once or twice to keep her warm
Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, she's singin' Her shooes paddy-wack in the front and the back And her yellow curls go swingin' Bells just rang, Bo-o-o-ing My eyes lit up and my heart went bang Her shoes paddy-wack in front and the back Chicka-boom, chicka-racky-boom
Oh, for her love I'd swim to China But I'm not a rich goldminer I can't give her things like rings an' fancy furs But I'm still not gonna back-up Gonna paint my little shack up I'll tell her if she wants it, well it's hers
Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, she's singin' Her shoes paddy-wack in the front and the back And her yellow curls go swingin' Bells just rang, Bo-o-o-ing My eyes lit up and my heart went bang Her shoes paddy-wack in the front and the back (Her shoes paddy-wack in the front and the back) Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, chicka-boom, chicka-rack (Chicka-boom, chicka-rack, chicka-boom, chicka-rack) Chicka-boom, chicka-rack Boom, chicka-rack Boom, chicka-rack Chicka-boom

Thanks For The Memory Composer(s): Ralph Rainger - Leo Robin First performance by: Bob Hope & Shirley Ross - 1938 Covered by multiple other artists
Thanks for the memory Of sentimental verse Nothing in my purse And chuckles When the preacher said For better or for worse How lovely it was
Thanks for the memory Of Schubert's Serenade Little things of jade And traffic jams And anagrams And bills we never paid How lovely it was
We who could laugh over big things Were parted by only a slight thing I wonder if we did the right thing Oh, well, that's life, I guess I love your dress
Thanks for the memory Of faults that you forgave Of rainbows on a wave And stockings in the basin When a fellow needs a shave Thank you so much
Thanks for the memory Of tinkling temple bells Alma mater yells And Cuban rum And towels from The very best hotels Oh how lovely it was
Thanks for the memory Of cushions on the floor Hash with Dinty Moore That pair of gay pajamas That you bought And never wore
We said goodbye with a highball Then I got as high as a steeple But we were intelligent people No tears, no fuss Hooray for us
Strictly entire nous Darling, how are you? And how are all Those little dreams That never did come true?
Awfully glad I met you Cheerio and toodle-oo Thank you Thank you so much
Thanks a million a million thanks to you For everything that love could bring you brought to me
How can I convey it all I dont want to bore you Oh, its so hard to say it all, standing here before you Theres so very much to say in so many ways But Ive found a different way in a current phrase Oh, thanks a million a million thanks to you For everything that love could bring you brought to me Each tender love word you happened to say Is hidden away in memorys bouquet Oh, thanks a million, for I remember, too The tenderness that your caresses taught me You made a million dreams come true And so Im saying thanks a million to you

We used to dwell in love's own palace A palace of dreams come true Now that we're through, I bear no malice Though we've called it a day, all I can say is...
Thanks for all the lovely delights I found in your embrace I'm thankful, though I know it's ending all too soon
And thanks for unforgettable nights I never can replace And memories that linger like a haunting tune
It is better to have loved you, dear, and lost Than never to have loved at all Yes, it's better, for no matter what the cost I held the world in sway, an Emperor for a day
And thanks again for taking me on the road to paradise We lost our way, but still I must convey my thanks

Thank You Very Much (Anton Rodgers & Albert Finney)
Thank You Very Much Composer(s): Charles Dickens - Leslie Bricusse Performer(s): Anton Rodgers & Albert Finney
On behalf of all the people who have assembled here I would merely like to mention, if I may That our unanimous attitude Is one of lasting gratitude For what our friend has done for us today And therefore I would simply like to say
Thank you very much Thank you very much That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me I may sound double Dutch But my delight is such I feel as if a losing war's been won for me
And if I had a flag, I'd hang me flag out To let us all the final victory touch But since I left me flag at home I simply have to say Thank you very, very, very much Thank you very, very, very much
Thank you very much Thank you very much That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me It sounds a bit bizarre The things the way they are I feel as if another life's begun for me And if I had a canon I would fire it To let us all see the grace of touch But since I left me canon at home I simply have to say Thank you very, very, very much Thank you very, very, very much
For he's a jolly good fellow For he's a jolly good fellow For he's a jolly good fellow And so say all of us
Thank you very much Thank you very much That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me It isn't every day Good fortune comes me way I never thought the future would be fun for me And if I had a bugle I would blow it To add a sort o' how's your father's touch But since I left me bugle at home I simply have to say Thank you very, very, very much Thank you very, very, very much
No, no, dear friends, it is I who should thank you
Thank you very much Thank you very much That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me The future looks alright In fact it looks so bright I feel as if they probably sing this song for me And if I had a drum, I'd have to bang it To add a sort o' rumpty tumpty touch But since I left me drummer at home I simply have to say
Thank you very, very, very much Thank you very, very, very much
Thank You So Much Missus Lowsborough Goodby Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Fred Astaire
Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby gives weekends and her weekends are not a success but she asks you so often you finally soften and end by answering "Yes" When I left Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby's The letter I wrote was polite But it would have been bliss Had I dared write her this The letter I wanted to write
Thank you so much, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby Thank you so much Thank you so much for that infinite weekend with you Thank you a lot, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby Thank you a lot
And don't be surprised if you suddenly should be quietly shot For the clinging perfume And that damp little room For those cocktails so hot And the bath that was not For those guests so amusing and mentally bracing Who talked about racing and racing and racing For the ptomaine I got from your famous tin salmon For the fortune I lost when you taught me backgammon For those mornings I spent with your dear but deaf mother For those evenings I passed with that bounder, your brother And for making me swear to myself there and then Never to go for a weekend again Thank you so much, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby Thank you, thank you so much
Thank You Satan Composer(s): Léo Ferré First release by: Léo Ferré - 1961
Pour la flamme que tu allumes Au creux d'un lit pauvre ou rupin Pour le plaisir qui s'y consume Dans la toile ou dans le satin Pour les enfants que tu ranimes Au fond des dortoirs chérubins Pour leurs pétales anonymes Comme la rose du matin
Thank you Satan
Pour le voleur que tu recouvres De ton chandail tendre et rouquin Pour les portes que tu lui ouvres Sur la tanière des rupins Pour le condamné que tu veilles À l'Abbaye du monte en l'air Pour le rhum que tu lui conseilles Et le mégot que tu lui sers
Thank you Satan
Pour les étoiles que tu sèmes Dans le remords des assassins Et pour ce cur qui bat quand même Dans la poitrine des putains Pour les idées que tu maquilles Dans la tête des citoyens Pour la prise de la Bastille Même si ça ne sert à rien
Thank you Satan
Pour le prêtre qui s'exaspère À retrouver le doux agneau Pour le pinard élémentaire Qu'il prend pour du Château Margaux Pour l'anarchiste à qui tu donnes Les deux couleurs de ton pays Le rouge pour naître à Barcelone Le noir pour mourir à Paris
Thank you Satan
Pour la sépulture anonyme Que tu fis à Monsieur Mozart Sans croix ni rien sauf pour la frime Un chien, croque-mort du hasard Pour les poètes que tu glisses Au chevet des adolescents Quand poussent dans l'ombre complice Des fleurs du mal de dix-sept ans
Thank you Satan
Pour le péché que tu fais naître Au sein des plus raides vertus Et pour l'ennui qui va paraître Au coin des lits où tu n'es plus Pour les ballots que tu fais paître Dans le pré comme des moutons Pour ton honneur à ne paraître Jamais à la télévision
Thank you Satan
Pour tout cela et plus encor Pour la solitude des rois Le rire des têtes de morts Le moyen de tourner la loi Et qu'on ne me fasse point taire Et que je chante pour ton bien Dans ce monde où les muselières Ne sont plus faites pour les chiens...
Thank You For The Use Of The Hall From the film "Little Miss Broadway" (1938) Composer(s): Walter Bullock - Harold Spina Performer(s): Shirley Temple
Your honor I lay my case before you With the show, you're invited now to see with me It's a wow and I hope that you'll agree with me Their business, Show business Just comes to no business without backing That's all they're lacking All they need is a chance A chance to smile, to laugh, to sing to dance And that is that, and that is all So, thank you for the use of the hall
Thank You For The Music ((French Version: Envoyez Le Générique (Maurice Barrier & Marie Framboise) - 1983)) Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus First release by: ABBA - 1977 Covered by multiple other artists
I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before But I have a talent, a wonderful thing 'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing I'm so grateful and proud All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk She says I began to sing long before I could talk And I've often wondered, how did it all start? Who found out that nothing can capture a heart Like a melody can? Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan
So I say Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me
I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair I wanna sing it out to everybody What a joy, what a life, what a chance!
So I say Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me
Envoyez Le Générique ((Adapted from: Thank You For The Music (ABBA) - 1977)) Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus - Alain Boublil - Daniel Boublil Performer(s): Maurice Barrier & Marie Framboise - 1983
Je vous aimais bien, vous tous qui suiviez mes cours Et je ne vais pas vous ennuyer d'un long discours
Promis je vais faire court Vous dire sans détour Que j'ai rencontré un monsieur charmant Et pas prince pour autant Je vous quitte, c'est la faute à l'amour
C'est parti... Envoyez le générique, l'histoire est finie La géographie... nie aussi Décraquez les cancres, les tocards et les costauds Plus besoin On va tous lever l'ancre, à bientôt C'est parti, envoyez le générique Quatre, trois, deux, un, rideau !
Vous n'aviez pas tous la bosse des mathématiques Oui mais quand on bosse, il faut avoir l'esprit logique
Et si je n'm'abuse Aucune science infuse Ne donne le carré de l'hypothénuse Alors promettez-moi De faire mieux quand je ne s'rai plus là
On fait des voyages ensemble dans les livres d'images On se sépare à la dernière page C'est magique Fantastique En musique
Thank You Darling Composer(s): Fini Busch - Werner Scharfenberger Performer(s): The Supremes

If the sun refused to shine I would still be loving you When mountains crumble to the sea There will still be you and me
Kind woman, I give you my all Kind woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain Tears of loves lost in the days gone by My love is strong, with you there is no wrong Together we shall go until we die, my, my, my Inspiration is what you are to me Inspiration, look see
And so today, my world it smiles Your hand in mine, we walk the miles But thanks to you it will be done For you to me are the only one, ah, ah yeah Happiness, no more be sad Happiness, I'm glad
If the sun refused to shine I would still be loving you Mountains crumble to the sea There will still be you and me
