    The Bug
    Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
    First release by: Dire Straits - 1991



    Well it's a strange old game - you learn it slow
    One step forward and it's back to go
    You're standing on the throttle
    You're standing on the brakes
    In the groove 'til you make a mistake

    Sometimes you're the windshield
    Sometimes you're the bug
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes you're a fool in love
    Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger
    Sometimes you're the ball
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes your're going to lose it all

    You gotta know happy - you gotta know sad
    Because you're gonna know lonely
    And you're gonna know bad
    When you're rippin' and a ridin', and
    You're comin' on strong
    You start slippin' and a slidin', and
    It all goes wrong, because

    Sometimes you're the windshield
    Sometimes you're the bug
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes you're a fool in love
    Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger
    Sometimes you're the ball
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes your're going to lose it all

    One day you got the glory
    Then you got none
    One day you're a diamond
    Then you're a stone
    Everything can change
    In the blink of an eye
    So let the good times roll
    Before we say goodbye, because

    Sometimes you're the windshield
    Sometimes you're the bug
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes you're a fool in love
    Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger
    Sometimes you're the ball
    Sometimes it all comes together baby
    Sometimes you're going to lose it all

    Can't Stop Rockin' Composer(s): Frank Beard - Billy Gibbons - Dusty Hill Performer(s): ZZ Top



    I heard about the rock for sometime, I know
    It's easy to do when you feel the roll
    Makes you want to get up, makes you wanna move your feet
    No matter how it's done you know it can't be beat
    'Cause I can't stop rockin'
    no, I can't stop rockin'
    Well, I can't stop rockin'
    baby, till I lose my mind

    Somebody said it's wrong but I know it's all right
    then it really hits you like a shot in the night
    I'm never gonna stop as long as I can stay
    Listen to me now, can't you hear me say
    I can't stop rockin'
    no, I can't stop rockin'
    Well, I can't stop rockin'
    baby, till I lose my mind

    I like to work it down low, I like to work it to the top
    And when it starts rockin' I ain't never gonna stop
    Get yourself loose, get yourself high
    I love to feel the motion and I'm tellin' you why
    'Cause I can't stop rockin'
    no, I can't stop rockin'
    No, I can't stop rockin'
    no matter what they do do do do do or say
    No matter what you do do do do do or say, no no

    Figlio, Figlio, Figlio
    Composer(s): Roberto Vecchioni
    Performer(s): Roberto Vecchioni



    Figlio chi t'insegnerà le stelle
    se da questa nave non potrai vederle?
    Chi t'indicherà le luci dalla riva?
    Figlio, quante volte non si arriva!
    Chi t'insegnerà a guardare il cielo
    fino a rimanere senza respiro?
    A guardare un quadro per ore e ore
    fino a avere i brividi dentro il cuore?
    Che al di là del torto e la ragione
    contano soltanto le persone?
    Che non basta premere un bottone
    per un' emozione?
    Figlio, figlio, figlio
    disperato giglio, giglio, giglio
    luce di purissimo smeriglio
    corro nel tuo cuore e non ti piglio
    dimmi dove ti assomiglio
    figlio, figlio, figlio
    soffocato giglio, giglio, giglio
    figlio della rabbia e dell' imbroglio
    figlio della noia e lo sbadiglio
    disperato figlio, figlio, figlio
    Figlio, chi si è preso il tuo domani?
    Quelli che hanno il mondo nelle mani
    Figlio, chi ha cambiato il tuo sorriso?
    Quelli che oggi vanno in Paradiso
    Chi ti ha messo questo freddo in cuore?
    Una madre col suo poco amore
    Chi t' ha mantenuto questo freddo in cuore?
    Una madre col suo troppo amore
    Figlio, chi ti ha tolto il sentimento?
    Non so di che parli, non lo sento
    Cosa sta passando per la tua mente?
    Che non credo a niente
    Figlio, figlio, figlio
    disperato giglio, giglio, giglio
    luce di purissimo smeriglio
    corro nel tuo cuore e non ti piglio
    dimmi dove ti assomiglio
    figlio, figlio, figlio
    spaventato giglio, giglio, giglio
    figlio della rabbia e dell' imbroglio
    figlio della noia e lo sbadiglio
    disperato figlio, figlio, figlio
    Figlio, qui la notte è molto scura
    non sei mica il primo ad aver paura
    non sei mica il solo a nuotare sotto
    tutt'e due ci abbiamo il culo rotto
    non ci sono regole molto chiare
    tiro quasi sempre ad indovinare
    figlio, questo nodo ci lega al mondo
    devo dirti no e tu andarmi contro
    tu che hai l' infinito nella mano
    io che rendo nobile il primo piano
    figlio, so che devi colpirmi a morte
    e colpire forte
    Figlio, figlio, figlio
    disperato giglio, giglio, giglio
    luce di purissimo smeriglio
    corro nel tuo cuore e non ti piglio
    dimmi dove ti assomiglio
    figlio, figlio, figlio
    calpestato giglio, giglio, giglio
    figlio della rabbia e dell' imbroglio
    figlio della noia e lo sbadiglio
    adorato figlio,figlio, figlio
    Dimmi, dimmi, dimmi
    cosa ne sarà di te?
    Dimmi, dimmi, dimmi
    cosa ne sarà di te?
    Dimmi, dimmi, dimmi
    cosa ne sarà di me?

    The Buffalo, The Beetle, The Bouncing Kangaroo And The Bufo Marinus Cane Toad
    Composer(s): Howard L. Kaplan



    To understand the impact of the creature that says "moo"
    Upon the island continent, one must consider too
    The buffalo, the beetle, the bouncing kangaroo
    And the Bufo marinus cane toad

    For purpose of discussion, we will say this story starts
    When a buffalo in Africa lifts up its tail and farts
    The whiff of gas that passes lets some scarabs know an ung
    Ulate has likely stopped a moment to release a pile of dung
    The beetles set their windward course before the ground is hit
    By the pungent, fresh constituents of several pounds of shit
    The leavings, rich in cellulose, of what the beast once ate
    Provide the food and space to brood, so beetles start to mate

    The rollers and the dwellers and the tunnelers invade
    Continuing a cycle that Egyptian art portrayed
    The rollers push their dung away to gain a bit of space
    The tunnellers drag theirs beneath; the dwellers nest in place
    Though individually small, they transport ton by ton
    And bury dung that otherwise would bake hard in the sun
    While mites that hitch a ride on beetles' bodies start to eat
    The eggs of flies that otherwise would for the dung compete

    If you're a biophysicist, then you can calculate
    That beasts can't move efficiently above a certain weight
    By hopping on their hind legs, and the mass this rule allows
    Means kangaroos cannot evolve to be the size of cows
    In consequence, the dung they leave is golf-ball sized, or less
    And so Australia's coprophagous fauna could address
    Itself to handlng the smaller forms of pre-digested leaf
    But not the kind that's left behind by half-ton hunks of beef

    The settlers who brought cattle to Australia many years
    Ago did not consider just how cow dung disappears
    And so the growing, lowing herds left calling cards around
    Which, sun-baked and inedible, were occupying ground
    Until eroded by the weather, trampled under hoof
    Or taken by the termites to form floor and wall and roof
    Eventually, despite the fact that Murphy tends to win
    When people meddle, hexapedal livestock was brought in

    Not all the coprophagous species introduced so far
    Are forming useful colonies, among the ones that are
    Onthophagus gazella, found in Queensland, flies at night
    When cane toads lurk at dung pads to consume those who alight
    These toads, of course, have been of not much use protecting canes
    While threatening survival of some beneficial strains
    Perhaps a daylight flyer should assume gazella's role
    Or else one tough and fierce enough to fight when swallowed whole!

    Night turns for us so soon, workin' our dream Right through the afternoon, oh I know if I wake, I'll find that you're gone But it's only myself that I'm tryin' to deceive Everyone knows it's nothin' but make believe The girl that I have to play The cross that I have to bear, 'cause I ... Can't stop loving you now, don't even know how It's just a fantasy Oh I can't stop loving you now Don't even know how, oh girl, why can't you see? It's too late, I can't stop loving you now They just make me feel blue, things people say Always make me think of you Day after day, time after time For only a time she once threw away I close my eyes, it seems just like yesterday How could you changed your mind I never could change mine, oh I ...

    Figli Delle Stelle
    Composer(s): Alan Sorrenti
    Performer(s): Alan Sorrenti; Claudio Baglioni



    Come le stelle noi
    soli nella notte ci incontriamo
    come due stelle noi
    silenziosamente insieme
    ci sentiamo
    Non c'è tempo di fermare
    questa corsa senza fiato
    che ci sta portando via
    e il vento spegnerà
    il fuoco che si accende
    quando sono in te, quando tu sei in me
    Noi siamo figli delle stelle
    figli della notte che ci gira intorno
    noi siamo figli delle stelle
    non ci fermeremo mai per niente al mondo
    noi siamo figli delle stelle
    senza storia senza età eroi di un sogno
    noi stanotte figli delle stelle
    ci incontriamo per poi perderci nel tempo
    Come due stelle noi
    riflessi sulle onde scivoliamo
    come due stelle noi
    avvolti dalle ombre noi ci amiamo
    io non cerco di cambiarti
    so che non potrò fermarti
    tu per la tua strada vai
    addio ragazza ciao
    io non ti cercherò
    dovunque tu sarai
    dovunque io sarò
    Noi siamo figli delle stelle
    figli della notte che ci gira intorno
    noi siamo figli delle stelle
    non ci fermeremo mai per niente al mondo
    noi siamo figli delle stelle
    senza storia senza età eroi di un sogno
    noi stanotte figli delle stelle
    ci incontriamo per poi perderci nel tempo

    The Budgie Song
    Composer(s): John Williamson
    Performer(s): John Williamson



    Well it cost me thirty bucks to fix my budgie
    When the little blighter only cost me five
    The veterinary surgeon saw me coming
    But I had to keep my feathered friend alive

    He was shaking on his perch, the kids were crying
    The family gathered round his little cage
    I said I think it's time we got a new one
    That's when the family went into a rage

    Oh, the waiting room ponged like a rat house
    With heartworms and lungworms and lice
    And a Persian had her eye on the shoebox
    I suppose she thought our budgie might be nice

    Well the bird shit on the veterinary surgeon
    I heard him say the dirty little chick
    Guess he wondered why I didn't use my brains
    And hit him over the head with a brick

    Oh antibiotics for his colour
    Two drops a day on his beak
    Some powder on the nose for his feathers
    And clean out his cage twice a week

    Well it cost me thirty bucks to fix my budgie
    When the little blighter only cost me five
    And the bludger wakes me early in the morning
    It's got me puzzled how he survives

    One night I'll feed him to the tom cat
    Instead of worrying about him when we go away
    No-one wants to feed a shitty budgie
    When everyone's on holiday

    Oh antibiotics for his colour
    Two drops a day on his beak
    Some powder on the nose for his feathers
    And clean out his cage twice a week

    Can't Stop Lovin' You Composer(s): Michael Anthony - Sammy Hagar - Alex Van Halen - Eddie Van Halen First release by: Van Halen - 1995



    There's a time and place for everything, for everyone
    We can push with all our might, but nothin's gonna come
    Oh no, nothin's gonna change
    And if I asked you not to try
    Oh could you let it be
    I wanna hold you and say
    We can't throw this all away
    Tell me you won't go, you won't go
    Do you have to hear me say

    I can't stop lovin' you
    And no matter what I say or do
    You know my heart is true, oh
    I can't stop loving you

    You change your friends, your place in life
    You can change your mind, we can change the way we say
    And do anytime
    Oh no, but I think you'll find
    That when you look inside your heart
    Oh baby, I'll be there, yeah

    Hold on
    I'm holding on
    Baby, just come on, come on, cdome on
    I just wanna hear you say

    I can't stop lovin' you
    And no matter what you say or do
    You know my heart is true, oh
    I can't stop lovin' you

    Oh, I'm so twisted and tied
    And all I remember
    Was how hard we tried
    Only to surrender

    And when it's over
    I know how it's gonna be
    And true love will never die
    No, not fade away

    And I can't stop lovin' you
    No matter what I say or do
    You know my heart is true, oh
    I can't stop lovin' you

    And I know what I got to do
    Hey Ray, what you said is true
    I can't stop lovin' you, oh

    Time is truly wastin'
    There's no guarantee
    Smile's in the makin'
    You gotta fight the powers that be
    Got so many forces
    Stayin' on the scene
    Givin' up all around me
    Faces full a' pain
    I can't play my music
    They say my music's too loud
    I kept talkin about it
    I got the big run around
    When I rolled with the punches
    I got knocked on the ground
    With all this bullshit going down

    Time is truly wastin'
    There's no guarantee
    Smile's in the makin'
    You gotta fight the powers that be
    I don't understand it
    People wanna see, ya
    Those that got the answers
    Red tape in the way
    I could take you in easy
    That's just half the fun, oh boy
    Seeking satisfaction
    Keeps me on the run
    I can't play my music
    They say my music's too loud
    I kept talkin about it
    I got the big run around
    When I rolled with the punches
    I got knocked on the ground
    With all this bullshit going down
    Time is truly wastin'
    There's no guarantee
    Smile's in the makin'
    You gotta fight the powers that be

    If you & I can - we got the power
    Fight it, got the power fight it........baby, baby

    Time flies
    When you're having fun
    I heard somebody say
    But if all I've been is fun
    Then baby let me go
    Don't wanna be in your way
    And I don't wanna be your second choice
    Don't wanna be just your friend
    You keep telling me that you're not in love
    You wanna throw it all away

    But I can't stay away form you
    I don't wanna let you go
    And though it's killing me that's true
    There's just some things I can't control

    Your love is slipping through my hands
    And though I've heard it all before
    I know you're telling me the truth
    I know it's just no use
    But I can't stay away from you

    Hold on to every bit of hope, that's all I ever do
    Hoping you might change your mind
    And call me up to say how much you need me too
    And though you're leaving me no other choice
    Than to turn and walk away
    Look over your shoulder, I'll be there
    You can count on me to stay ...

    'Cause I can't stay away from you
    I don't wanna let you go
    And though it's killing me that's true
    There's just some things I can't control
    Your love slipping through my hands
    And though I've heard it all before

    I know you're telling me the truth
    I know it's just no use
    But I can't stay away from you

    I know you're telling me the truth

    Every morning when sun is dawning

    The Brightest Smile In Town
    Composer(s): Ray Charles - Barry DeVorzon - Bob Sherman
    Performer(s): Ray Charles
    and multiple other artists



    Some people cry the blues, I never could
    I had no time for tears, life was too good
    I had the brightest smile in town, oh yeah
    Till you came along, and you turned it upside down

    Everything went my way, life was a ball
    But then you came along and changed it all
    You took the brightest smile in town
    Yeah you took it baby, and you turned it upside down

    You brought me love, oh tender love
    That made my whole world glow
    And then you took it all away
    Just why, I'll never know

    I'll soon forget in time, And smile again
    But I can never smile as I did then
    You took the brightest smile in town, oh Yeah
    You took it baby, and you turned it upside down

    Baby, woooh, yeah baby, you turned it upside down

    50 Ways To Leave Your Lover
    Composer(s): Paul Simon First release: Paul Simon - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages: 1976 - Gute Gründe, Um Zu Gehen (Daliah Lavi) 1979 - Trente Manières De Quitter Une Fille (Michel Delpech) 2005 - 50 Plus (Tom Van Stiphout en Paul Poelmans)



    The problem is all inside your head she said to me
    The answer is easy if you take it logically
    I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

    She said it's really not my habit to intrude
    Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
    But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
    Fifty ways to leave your lover

    You just slip out the back, Jack
    Make a new plan, Stan
    You don't need to be coy, Roy
    Just get yourself free
    Hop on the bus, Gus
    You don't need to discuss much
    Just drop off the key, Lee
    And get yourself free

    She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
    I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
    I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
    About the fifty ways

    She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
    And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
    And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
    There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
    Fifty ways to leave your lover

    You just slip out the back, Jack
    Make a new plan, Stan
    You don't need to be coy, Roy
    Just get yourself free
    Hop on the bus, Gus
    You don't need to discuss much
    Just drop off the key, Lee
    And get yourself free

    The Bridge Washed Out
    Composer(s): Jimmy Louis - Mel Melshee - Sandra Smith
    Performer(s): Rick Nelson
    and multiple other artists



    The bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    When I awoke this a morning the rain was a pouring down
    I was gonna wed the little river girl just over the bridge across town
    Now I'm a runnin' up and down the river and my nerves are drivin' me wild
    Because the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    Rain oh rain stop a fallin' dark clouds hurry from the sky
    The preacher and my bride are waitin' and the weddin' bells are startin' to chime
    I can't kiss and hold her and it's drivin' me out of my mind
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

    Now I got one foot in the river one foot solid on the ground
    I try to swim that ragin' old river but I know if I try I'd drown
    There's not a boat around me they walked on out with the tide
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side
    'Cause the bridge washed out I can't swim and my baby's on the other side

    Can't Smile Without You Composer(s): Chris Arnold - David Martin - Geoff Morrow First release by: David Martin - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists



    You know I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see I feel sad when you're sad
    I feel glad when you're glad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you

    You came along just like a song
    And brightened my day
    Who'd believed that you were part of a dream?
    Now it all seems light years away

    And now you know I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see, I feel sad when you're sad
    I feel glad when you're glad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you

    Now some people say happiness takes so very long to find
    Well I'm finding it hard leaving' your love behind me

    And you see I can't smile without you
    I can't smile without you
    I can't laugh and I can't sing
    I'm finding' it hard to do anything

    You see I feel glad when you're glad
    I feel sad when you're sad
    If you only knew what I'm going through
    I just can't smile without you...

    Fifty Percent
    Composer(s): Billy Goldenberg;
    Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman
    Performer(s): Helen Reddy;
    and various other artists



    I don't iron his shirts
    I don't sew on his buttons
    I don't know all the jokes he tells
    Or the songs he hums
    Though I may hold him all through the night
    He may not be here when the morning comes

    I don't pick out his ties
    Or expect his tomorrows
    But I feel when he's in my arms
    He's where he wants to be

    We have no memories
    Bittersweet with time
    And I doubt if he'll spend New Year's Eve with me

    I don't share his name
    I don't wear his ring
    There's no piece of paper saying that he's mine
    But he says he loves me, and I believe it's true
    Doesn't that make someone belong to you

    So I don't share his name
    So I don't wear his ring
    So there's no piece of paper saying that he's mine
    So we have don't have the memories
    I have enough memories
    I've watched enough mornings
    I've cried enough evenings
    I've had enough birthdays to know what I want

    Like there's anyone's guess
    It's a constant surprise
    Though you don't plan to fall in love
    When you fall you fall

    I'd rather have fifty percent of him
    Or any percent of him
    Than all of anybody else at all

    The Breeze And I
    ((Adapted from: Andalucía (Ernesto Lecuona) - 1928))
    Composer(s): Ernesto Lecuona - Al Stillman
    First release by: Jimmy Dorsey & His Orch. - 1940
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The breeze and I are saying with a sigh
    That you no longer care
    The breeze and I are whispering goodbye
    To dreams we used to share

    Ours was a love song that seemed constant as the moon
    Ending in a strange, mournful tune
    And all about me, they know you have departed without me
    And we wonder why, the breeze and I
    The breeze and I

    Can't Shake The Sands Of Texas From My Shoes Composer(s): Gene Autry - Diane Johnston - Kenneth Pitts Performer(s): Gene Autry; Don Edwards; Riders in the Sky



    I'm sad, I got the blues
    Can't shake the sands of Texas from my shoes

    I sigh, and don't know why
    I guess I got those dear old Texas blues

    The smell of the rain, the roll of the plain
    The feel of my seat in the saddle
    I'd give all I own if I could be home
    Back on the range punchin' cattle

    I guess I got the blues
    Can't shake the sands of Texas from my shoes
