The Ballad Of Cat Ballou Composer(s): Mack David - Jerry Livingston Performer(s): Nat King Cole and multiple other artists
Well now friends just lend an ear For you're now about to hear The ballad of Cat Ballou It's a song that's newly made And Professus and The Shade And the Sunrise Kid are singin' it for you
Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou
It's a hangin' day in Wolf City, Wyomin' Wolf City, Wyomin', eighteen ninety four They're gonna drop Cat Ballou Through the gallows floor
She killed a man in Wolf City, Wyomin' Wolf City, Wyomin', killed a man it's true And that is why they're a-hangin' Hangin' Cat Ballou
She has the smile of an angel (Fights like the Devil) The eyes of an angel (Bites like the Devil) The face of an angel (I say she's the Devil) (She's mean and evil through and through)
Cat Ballou, Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou She's mean and evil through and through
With her outlaw band they're now tellin' a story Now tellin' a story how she rode the plain The wildest gal in the We-est Since Calamity Jane
And today's the day that she's goin' to glory She's goin' to glory for the way she sinned They'll be a-speedin' her soul On a wayward wind
She has the smile of an angel (Fights like the Devil) The eyes of an angel (Bites like the Devil) The face of an angel (I say she's the Devil) (She's mean and evil through and through)
Cat Ballou (Cat Ballou) Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou (Cat Ballou) She's mean and evil through and through
Cat Ballou, Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou She's mean and evil through and through
Cambios Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Ella hace mucho que no duerme con él y él le propone hacer las paces le trajo un paquete con comida y no sé qué y un aire de perro apaleado contó que lo hirieron en el concierto de ayer y que volvió decepcionado Y no por la bala sino por la ingenuidad de 30.000 desocupados aplaudiendo a un artista millonario
Cambios, cambios que vengan los cambios pasan los años, estamos igual Cambios, cambios empezar por adentro no te hagas daño sólo trata cambiar
Yo no tengo trabajo pero ellos tampoco llegaron nunca, jamás pisaron la Luna y te regalan profilácticos en el subte y en el tren te dicen: -Jamás pierdas el control que cuides los mares y no envuelvas nada en celofán y te prohiben usar el aerosol Para que un hijo de puta se cague en el ozono fabrique aviones y entierre los deshechos en el Sur Y en un experimento se escape un pobre mono con el maldito virus y nos apeste a todos... quiero
Cambios, cambios que vengan los cambios pasan los años, estamos igual Cambios, cambios empezar por adentro no te hagas daño sólo trata cambiar
Le regalo una foto autografiada por el Che y un video de Bugs Bunny un banderín de River Plate aunque el pibe nació en Avellaneda donde el aire mata gente en las veredas pero ella hace mucho que no duerme con él... pero esta noche, ja, ja, ja
Cambios, cambios que vengan los cambios pasan los años, estamos igual Cambios, cambios sólo trata, cambios...
Ballad Of Bonnie And Clyde Composer(s): Mitch Murray - Peter Callander Performer(s): Georgie Fame
Bonnie and Clyde were pretty lookin' people But I can tell you people they were the devil's children Bonnie and Clyde began their evil doin' One lazy afternoon down Savannah way They robbed a store, and high-tailed outa that town Got clean away in a stolen car And waited till the heat died down
Bonnie and Clyde advanced their reputation And made the graduation Into the banking business "Reach for the sky" sweet-talking Clyde would holler As Bonnie loaded dollars in the dewlap bag Now one brave man, he tried to take 'em alone They left him Iyin' in a pool of blood And laughed about it all the way home
Bonnie and Clyde got to be public enemy number one Running and hiding from ev'ry American lawman's gun They used to laugh about dyin' But deep inside 'em they knew That pretty soon they'd be lyin' Beneath the ground together Pushing up daisies to welcome the sun And the morning dew
Acting upon reliable information A fed'ral deputation laid a deadly ambush When Bonnie and Clyde came walking in the sunshine A half a dozen carbines opened up on them
Bonnie and Clyde, they lived a lot together And finally together they died
Cambios Composer(s): Adrian Abonizio Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
No hay un cambio si fueron disueltos y dejaron los estados desiertos la tecnologia europea se rompe en la cordillera y conejitos de indias somos por suerte no hay otra vida como nos promete el cura
No hay un mango en las arcas del cielo se robaron los diez mandamientos un video clip neoyorquino vale menos que un vaso ser de esta tierra es pecado y ser fieles al pasado nos convierte en esclavos
Cuanto duras, cuanto deseas el deseo de desear el deseo de cambiar esta tierra colombina te embriaga pero te quita un poco de alegria por que todavia te duelen las heridas
Disculpame no quiero cantarte mas los soldados se pintan como tu mamá y hay un señor elegido que a todos pide permiso Menos a vos que viste la vida por una consigna y hoy no vale cinco guitas marihuana entre rejas hoy corres la coneja como el ciego del subte que canta villancicos aunque no sea navidad

The Ballad Of Billy The Kid Composer(s): Billy Joel Performer(s): Billy Joel
From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand And his daring life of crime Made him a legend in his time East and West of the Rio Grande Well he started with a bank in Colorado In the pocket of hist vest a Colt he hid And his age and his size Took the teller by surprise And the words spread of Billy the Kid Well he never travelled heavy Yes, he always rode alone And he soon put many older guns to shame Well he never had a sweetheart And he never had a home But the cowboys and the ranchers knew his name Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma And the law just couldn't seem to track him down And it served his legend well For the folks they love to tell 'Bout when Billy the Kid was in town One cold day a posse captured Billy And the judge said string 'im up for what he did And the cowboys and their kin Like the sea came pourin' in To watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid Well he never travelled heavy Yes, he always rode alone And he soon put many older guns to shame Well he never had a sweetheart Tho' he finally found a home Underneath the Boot Hill grave that bears his name From a town known as Oyster Bay, Long Island Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand And his daring life of crime Made him a legend in his time East and West of the Rio Grande
Cambió
((Adapted from: You've Changed (by Dick Haymes & Harry James and His Orch.) - 1941))
Composer(s): Carl Fischer - Bill Carey
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar
Cambió aquel destello en tu mirar Tu risa ya no huele a mar No puedo creer cambió
Cambió Tu beso ya no es de pasión Tu boca canta otra canción No puedo entender cambió
Me encerraste junto a tus sombras las que quisieras borrar Tu estrella ya no me nombra ¿A quién le podrá importar?
Cambió Se ha ido el ángel que había en ti y aunque no atines a partir ya no estás aquí cambió
Fantasy Flight Composer(s): Michael Pinder Performer(s): Michael Pinder
It's time to turn off the light I'm half asleep and I keep on yawning It's time to cuddle up tight We'll see the dawn if we stay here talking
Let's dream the rest of the night As dreamers do when they contemplating We'll take a fantasy flight The fare is free and the ship is waiting
All aboard, the silver chord The tour's about to start See the famous asteroids And a thousand, million stars See the planets as they fly Never falling from their path Through our solar system's sky Rock of ages is their map Rock of ages is their map
Universal delight The air is clear and the view breath-taking It's such a wonderful sight A solar flare and a moonbeam mating
Let's dream the rest of the night As dreamers do when they come to play We'll take a fantasy flight The fare is free and the ship is waiting
All aboard, the silver chord The tour's about to start See the famous asteroids And a thousand, million stars See the planets as they fly Never falling from their path Through our solar system's sky Rock of ages is their map Rock of ages is their map
It's time to turn off the light I'm half asleep and I keep on yawning It's time to cuddle up tight We'll see the dawn if we stay here talking
Let's dream the rest of the night As dreamers do when they contemplating We'll take a fantasy flight The fare is free and the ship is waiting
All aboard, the silver chord The tour's about to start See the famous asteroids And a thousand, million stars
See the planets as they fly Never falling from their path Through our solar system's sky Rock of ages is their map Rock of ages is their map
Cambiada Composer(s): Guillermo De Anda Performer(s): Javier Solís
Te noto cambiada en tus sentimientos ya no eres la misma que tuve en mis brazos mi dulce tormento
Sé que la distancia bien pudo cambiarnos pero el juramento que juntos hicimos no puedo olvidarlo Acaso tus besos me los han robado con una traición y ahora que regreso tan ilusionado tienes otro amor
Te noto cambiada y así más prefiero que me desengañes a vivir creyendo en un falso te quiero
Acaso tus besos me los han robado con una traición y ahora que regreso tan ilusionado tienes otro amor
Te noto cambiada y así más prefiero que me desengañes a vivir creyendo en un falso te quiero Que me desengañes a vivir creyendo en un falso te quiero

Every man has a place In his heart there's a space And the world can't erase his fantasies Take a ride in the sky On our ship fantasise All your dreams will come true right away
And we will live together Until the twelfth of never Our voices will ring forever as one
Every thought is a dream Rushing by in a stream Bringing life to your kingdom of doing Take a ride in the sky On our ship fantasise All your dreams will come true miles away
Our voices will ring together Until the twelfth of never We all will love together as one
Come to see victory In a land called fantasy Loving life a new degree Bring your mind to everlasting liberty
As one
Come to see victory In a land called fantasy Loving life for you and me To behold to your soul is ecstasy You will find other kind That has been in search of you Many lives have brought you to Recognise it's your life now in review
As you stay for the play Fantasy has in store for you A glowing light will see you through It's your day shining day All your dreams come true
As you glide in your stride With the wind as you fly away Give a smile from your lips and say Are you free yes I'm free And I'm on my way
The Badger And The Rabbit Composer(s): Ian Dury - Russell Hardy Performer(s): Kilburn & the High Roads
The squirrel gather nuts in May And he shuts his nuts away There's a quick brown fox In the hollyhocks A vixen in the mood to play
Well The badger don't care Rabbit got his share Smile on the face of the fox The squirrel and the bear Just stand and stare Old Red's standing up on his hocks
The weres and the bear don't bite His nose in the air tonight He's beating like a rabbit Don't wanna feed his habit His lady-rabbit's out of sight
Well The badger don't care Rabbit's got his share Smile on the face of the fox The squirrel and the bear Just stand and stare Old Red's standing up on his hocks
The stag can be sincere at last A pretty little deer goes past The badger on the run Can have a little fun He doesn't find the pace too fast
Well The badger don't care Rabbit got his share Smile on the face of the fox The squirrel and the bear Just stand and stare Old Red's standing up on his hocks
Cambalache Composer(s): Enrique Santos Discépolo Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Que el mundo fue y sera una porqueria ya lo se en el quinientos diez y en el dosmil también que siempre ha habido chorros maquiavelos y estafados contentos y amargados varones y doblés pero que el siglo xx es un despliege de maldad insolente ya no hay quien lo niegue vivimos revolcados en un merengue y en el mismo lodo todos manoseados
Hoy resulta que es lo mismo ser derecho que traidor ignorante sabio chorro generoso estafador Todo es igual nada es mejor lo mismo un burro que un gran profesor no hay aplaza'os ni escalafón los inmorales nos han iguala'o si uno vive en la impostura y otro afana en su ambición da lo mismo que sea cura colchonero, rey de basto caradura o polizón
Que falta de respeto que atropello a la razon cualquiera es un señor cualquiera es un ladrón mezclado con Stavinsky va Don Bosco y Napoleón Don Chcho y Lamignón Carnera y San Martín igual que la vidriera irrespetuosa de los cambalaches se ha mezclado la vida y herida por un sable sin remache ves llorar la biblia junto a un calefón
Siglo xx cambalache problematico y febríl el que no llora no mama y el que no afana es un gil Dale nomás dale que va que alla en el horno se va'mo a encontrar no pienses mas sentate a un la'o que a nadie importa si naciste honrra'o si es lo mismo el que labura noche un dia como un buey que el que vive de las minas que el que mata, que el que cura o esta fuera de la ley
Fantastisch
English Title: You Did It
Performer(s): Wim Sonneveld
Pickering: Ach man, je bent fantastisch fantastisch, fantastisch! Dat Higgins een fantast is dat is fan-ta-sie! En daarom zeg ik drastisch Fantastisch! Fantastisch! Dat Higgins geen fantast is maar een groot genie! Jij moest een medaille hebben Dat staat voor mij vast!
Higgins: Doe geen moeite, doe geen moeite
Pickering: Lid zijn van 't Hogerhuis is iets wat bij jou past
Higgins: Schei uit! Schei uit! Ach man, wat klets je nou? Dat het gelukt is, komt door jou!
Pickering: Maar jij bent toch fantastisch fantastisch, fantastisch! Wat sprong je vastberaden over elke barricade lenig en elastisch! Fan ... tastisch!
Goddank is deze nacht voorbij Dat bal werd haast teveel voor mij met al die angst, die zorg en al dat gedraai
Higgins: We kwamen binnen en al gauw begreep ik dat het lukken zou en eig'lijk was het toen ontzettend saai
Pickering: En toen ze schreed door 't middenpad fluisterde ieder: "Wie is dat!?"
Higgins: Misschien had men nog nooit een "lady" gezien!
Pickering: En toen de Prins van Transylvanië haar ten dans vroeg en grapjes met haar maakte bovendien ...! Toen zei ik: "je bent fantastisch fantastisch, fantastisch!" Want hoor haar nu eens praten 't is een ras-aristocrate och m'n beste man 't Is fantastisch!
Higgins: Die Zoltan Karpathy was een geschenk van de hemel Als hij er niet geweest was, had ik mij doodverveeld Maar hij was er gelukkig - met al zijn oude truucjes!
Mrs. Pearce: Karpathy? Die afschuwelijke Hongaar? Was die er ook?
Higgins: Ja Die afschuwelijke schurk, die z'n taalkennis toch alleen maar gebruikt voor list en bedrog Hij stelde zich weldra de duivelse taak "opheldering in de Miss-Doolittle-Zaak" Elke keer zag ik hem weer steeds die ongelikte beer uit Boedapest Niemand die zo vuil en vals niemand die zo mis'lijk als dit loeder pest! Toen had hij er dan tenslotte toch voor mijn gevoel wel iets te lang gestaan Dus ik knikte en hij is zijn gang gegaan Zo vet als hij die handkus gaf! Wat droop de charme van 'm af! Hij weekte in Hongaarse stijl haar masker los met z'n gekwijl En na niet al te lange tijd toen stond hij bol van zekerheid En tot de gastvrouw zei hij na afloop van de wals: "Vergis u niet in deze dame want haar naam is vals!!!"
Mrs. Pearce: ... O!
Higgins: Jawohl! Ze komt hier niet vandaan - zei hij Ze komt - wat ik u zeg - uit verre streken Als ze zelf echt Engels was, dan zou ze zeker niet de taal zo keurig spreken en nadat hij dit gezegd had, hield hij even op en zei toen zonder aarzeling dat het hier beslist om een Hongaarse ging!
En niet alleen een Hongaarse, maar een koningsdochter!
Bedienden: Hiep, hiep, hoera voor Professor Higgins die triomf en victorie viert! Hiep, hiep, hoera voor Professor Higgins die nu Engeland's historie siert
Bediende in livrei Meneer, u bent fantastisch fantastisch, fantastisch dat Higgins een fantast is dat is fantasie! Wij zeggen daarom drastisch! fantastisch, fantastisch! een woord, dat wel bombastisch toch gepast is; 't was fantastisch wat u deed! Hiep, hiep, hoera!
Rest van het personeel Hiep, hiep, hoera voor Professor Higgins die triomf en victorie viert!
Hiep, hiep, hoera voor Professor Higgins! Roep "Bravo"! en Halleluja! Alles was fantastisch Wat u deed! Hiep, hiep hoera!
The Bad And The Beautiful Composer(s): David Raskin
Love is wrong It sings a hopeless song It longs for bitter disappointment and tears... and tears It calls to all that used to be And it yearns for someone who was tender... but untrue
Love is blind Its helplessly inclined To bind itself to discontentment and fears and fears It dwells on nights that might have been Love needs nothing more to do
My darling...
So, I hold each little token... we knew... we knew Endlessly I unfold, each word weve spoken We two... we two
Love is mad Its beautiful but bad It gladly weeps when disillusion appears... appears And so I cling to yesterdays While Im hopelessly in love While Im hopelessly in love With you
Camarines Composer(s): Adrian Abonizio Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Cara de mujer enamorada un vacio de rubór no dice nada estas como un reflejo, un torbellino como un lapiz de escribir la dirección para el angel que no encuentra la casita la ciudad, donde nunca mas se sufre
Me serviste un tinto y un jazmín del aire me manche en el camarín con rouge el traje estabas reflejada y enmarcada en una luz de festival que no culmina y la luz voltaica te debora y son horas de partir lejos de este perro mundo
La luz se fue, y empeze a sonar y yo cante hasta no dar más una vez mas, pedian mas y los odie, y odie el lugar y cuando abri los ojos y cuando abri los ojos ya no estabas más
The Baby Tree Composer(s): Rosalie Sorrells Performer(s): Jefferson Starship
There's an island way out in the sea Where the babies they all grow on trees And its jolly good fun To swing in the sun But you gotta watch out if you sneeze-sneeze You gotta watch out if you sneeze
Yeah you gotta watch out if you sneeze For swingin' up there in the breeze You're liable to cough You might very well fall off And tumble down flop on your knees-knees Tumble down flop on your knees
And when the stormy winds wail And the breezes blow high in a gale There's a curious dropping and flopping and plopping And fat little babies just hail-hail Fat little babies just hail
And the babies lie there in a pile And the adults they come after awhile And they always pass by All the babies that cry And take only babies that smile-smile They take only babies that smile... Even triplets and twins if they'll smile
Camarillo Brillo Composer(s): Frank Zappa Performer(s): Frank Zappa
She had that Camarillo brillo Flamin' out along her head I mean her Mendocino bean-o By where some bugs had made it red
She ruled the Toads of the Short Forest And every newt in Idaho And every cricket who had chorused By the bush in Buffalo
She said she was A Magic Mama And she could throw a mean Tarot And carried on without a comma That she was someone I should know
She had a snake for a pet And an amulet And she was breeding a dwarf But she wasn't done yet She had gray-green skin A doll with a pin I told her she was awright But I couldn't come in (I couldn't come in right then ...)
And so she wandered Through the door-way Just like a shadow from the tomb She said her stereo was four-way An' I'd just love it in her room
Well, I was born To have adventure So I just followed up the steps Right past her fuming incense stencher To where she hung her castanets
She stripped away Her rancid poncho An' laid out naked by the door We did it till we were un-concho An' it was useless any more
She had a snake for a pet And an amulet And she was breeding a dwarf But she wasn't done yet She had gray-green skin A doll with a pin I told her she was awright But I couldn't come in (actually, I was very busy then)
And so she wandered Through the door-way Just like a shadow from the tomb She said her stereo was four-way An' I'd just love it in her room
Well, I was born To have adventure So I just followed up the steps Right past her fuming incense stencher To where she hung her castanets
She said she was A Magic Mama And she could throw a mean Tarot And carried on without a comma That she was someone I should know
(Is that a real poncho ... I mean Is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho? Hmmm ... no foolin' ...)
