    The Crystal Ship
    Composer(s): Jim Morrison - John Densmore - Robby Krieger - Ray Manzarek
    First release by: The Doors - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Before you slip into unconsciousness
    I'd like to have another kiss
    Another flashing chance at bliss
    Another kiss, another kiss

    The days are bright and filled with pain
    Enclose me in your gentle rain
    The time you ran was too insane
    We'll meet again, we'll meet again

    Oh tell me where your freedom lies
    The streets are fields that never die
    Deliver me from reasons why
    You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

    The crystal ship is being filled
    A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
    A million ways to spend your time
    When we get back, I'll drop a line

    Carefree Highway
    Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
    Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot; John Carrington



    Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream
    I wonder how the old folks are tonight
    Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face
    She left me not knowin' what to do
    Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best
    I wonder if she'll ever do the same
    Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied
    With knowin' I got no one left to blame
    Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Searchin' through the fragments of my dream-shattered sleep
    I wonder if the years have closed her mind
    I guess it must be wanderlust or tryin' to get free
    From the good old faithful feelin' we once knew
    Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you
    Let me slip away on you
    Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
    Carefree highway, you seen better days
    The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes
    Carefree highway, let me slip away
    Slip away on you

    First Quarrel

    Both: We had our first quarrel today
    Paula : I threw your picture away
    Paul: I'm sorry I made you cry
    Paula : Forgive me, so am I
    Both: We had our first quarrel today

    Paul: I thought I saw you with Jim
    Paula : I was just talking with him
    Paul: Well, I guess I had it wrong
    Paula : I should have been at home

    Both: We had our first quarrel today

    What may seem wrong at the time isn't always true
    Our love will go on as long as there's me and you

    Paul: What was it all about?
    Paula : I don't remember now
    Both: We had our first quarrel today

    What may seem wrong at the time isn't always true

    The Crystal Gazer
    Composer(s): Frank Petch
    Performer(s): Reggie Goff



    There's a crystal gazer down at the fair
    She's a lady with a rose in her hair
    If you're feeling romantic
    She'll be your guide

    She can look into the crystal and see
    What your fortune and your future will be
    And they tell me the crystal
    Has never lied

    It seems that this weaver of dreams
    Deals in romance all the day through
    But her life's not the romance it seems
    (Her own dreams never come true)

    She can soon arrange a stranger's affairs
    But she tries to hide the worries and cares
    Of the one broken romance
    She'll never mend
    (She'll never mend)

    (It seems that this weaver of dreams
    Deals in romance all the day through)
    But her life's not the romance it seems
    (Her own dreams never come true)

    She can soon arrange a stranger's affairs
    But she tries to hide the worries and cares
    Of the one broken romance
    She'll never mend
    (Of the broken romance)
    (All)
    She'll never mend

    Career Opportunities Composer(s): Topper Headon - Mick Jones - Paul Simonon - Joe Strummer First release by: The Clash - 1977 Covered by multiple other artists



    They offered me the office, offered me the shop
    They said I'd better take anything they'd got
    Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?
    Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?

    Career opportunities are the ones that never knock
    Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
    Career opportunity, the ones that never knock

    I hate the army an' I hate the R.A.F.
    I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat
    I hate the civil service rules
    And I won't open letter bombs for you

    Bus driver....ambulance man....ticket inspector
    They're gonna have to introduce conscription
    They're gonna have to take away my prescription
    If they wanna get me making toys
    If they wanna get me, well, I got no choice

    When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
    we used to love while others used to play
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
    someone else moved in from far away

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
    and you don't ask the time of day
    But you and I, our love will never die
    but guess we'll cry come first of May

    The apple tree that grew for you and me
    I watched the apples falling one by one
    And I recall the moment of them all
    the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone

    Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small
    and you don't ask the time of day
    But you and I, our love will never die
    but guess we'll cry come first of May

    When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall
    do do do do do do do do do...
    Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by
    someone else moved in from far away

    First release by: Dave Berry - 1964
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I know all there is to know about the crying game
    I've had my share of the crying game

    First there are kisses, then there are sighs
    And then before you know where you are
    You're sayin' goodbye

    One day soon I'm gonna tell the moon about the crying game
    And if he knows maybe he'll explain

    Why there are heartaches, why there are tears
    And what to do to stop feeling blue
    When love disappears

    I know all there is to know about the crying game
    I've had my share of the crying game

    First there are kisses, then there are sighs
    And then before you know where you are
    You're sayin' goodbye

    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game
    Don't want no more of the crying game

    Good morning to you I hope you're feeling better baby
    Thinking of me while you are far away
    Counting the days until they set you free again
    Writing this letter hoping you're okay

    Saved you the room you used to stay in every Sunday
    The one that is warmed by sunshine every day
    And we'll get to know each other for a second time
    And then you can tell me 'bout your prison stay...

    Feels so good...
    You're coming home soon!

    It's gonna to be good to have you back again with me
    Watching the laughter play around your eyes
    Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
    Kiss and make up and it will be so nice...

    Feels so good...
    You're coming home soon!

    Walking the way we used to walk
    And it could be so nice...
    We're talking the way we used to talk
    And it could be so nice...

    It's gonna be good to have you back again with me
    Watching the laughter play around your eyes
    Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
    Kiss and make up and it will be so nice...

    Feels so good...
    You're coming home soon!

    Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson

    and multiple other artists



    My heart knows what the wild goose knows
    And I must go where the wild goose goes
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    Tonight I heard the wild goose cry
    Wingin' north in the lonely sky
    I tried to sleep, it wern't no use
    'Cause I am a brother to the old wild goose

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best)
    (A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest)

    My woman was kind and true to me
    She thinks she loves me, the more fool she
    She's gotta learn that ain't no use
    To love the brother of the old wild goose

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best)
    (A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest)

    (Oh, you wild goose)

    The cabin is warm and the snow is deep
    And I've got a woman who lies asleep
    When she wakes up tomorrow's dawn
    She'll find, poor critter, that her man is gone

    My heart knows what the wild goose knows
    And I must go where the wild goose goes
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly away

    Spring is comin' and the ice will break
    And I can't linger for a woman's sake
    She'll see a shadow pass overhead
    She'll find a feather beside my bed

    (My heart knows what the wild goose knows)
    (And I must go where the wild goose goes)
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best
    A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest

    (Wild goose, wild goose, wild goose, wild goose)
    (Wild goose, wild goose...)

    Cardboard Cutout Sundown
    Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
    Performer(s): Captain Beefheart & the Magic Band



    You hardly know a day goes by
    In the cardboard cutout sundown
    The moon popped up like a gallery duck
    Sipped up gold from the sunny cup
    And longhorns sawed the buggy grass
    And a cowboy blew a harp sitting on his chapped ass
    And the prairie flowers didn't look a bit queer
    And the stars struck the sand cartwheeled
    And poked in the prairie
    A cactus juice stand the only place the crows couldn't land
    The bluebottle flies were as big as a cowboy's eyes
    And their buzz was as loud as rattlers
    A fire engine red whistle blows raspberries
    In a cloud of whipped steam
    A tungle weed ran out black patent yarn stinkbug hoops
    From above a living mail thriving dot
    In perfect sympathy with the cardboard cutout sundown

    You hardly know a day goes by
    In the cardboard cutout sundown

    The Cascades; Jerry Fuller; The Volebeats



    All at once I miss you
    So long since I've kissed you
    How I love to look into your eyes

    Yes I still dream about you
    My world is lost without you
    For you are my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    Whenever I feel lonely
    I'm thinking of you only
    One last kiss and then we said goodbye

    The love I left behind me
    Comes back to remind me
    That you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    The love I left behind me
    Comes back to remind me
    That you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    And if you're thinking of me
    And you find that you still love me
    There's no use to go on living lies

    Let's hurry to each other
    For there could be no other
    Yes, you were my first love, and
    First love never ever dies

    First love never ever dies

    The cruel war is raging; Johnny has to fight
    I want to be with him from morning till night
    I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day
    That your captain will call you and you must obey
    Your captain will call you, it grieves my heart so
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    I'll tie back my hair; men's clothing I'll put on
    I'll pass as your comrade as we march along
    I'll pass as your comrade, no one will ever know
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "No, my love no"

    Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind
    I love you far better than all of mankind
    I love you far better than words can e'er express
    "Won't you let me go with you?" "Yes, my love yes"

    Cardboard California Composer(s): Howard Greenfield - Neil Sedaka Performer(s): Neil Sedaka



    Nothing is real in cardboard California
    Just waking up brings you down
    One lousy deal is cardboard California
    You just can't survive in a make believe town

    Lost in a city of little tin gods
    Cold plastic people with phoney facades
    How can you win when you look at the odds

    You're running down a one way street
    Nobody cares if you survive
    Sometimes you beg or you don't eat
    You gotta fight to stay alive
    Hey, you're never gonna get away

    Where 's the world you used to know
    Where did all the good times go
    Look around your hopes and dreams are gone
    But like a fool you still keep hanging on

    Come and be a movie star
    Come and drive a fancy car
    Come and see, what you really are

    Look in the mirror, mirrors don't lie
    You're getting older, your time's past you by
    You lost your shot to some younger guy

    You're running down a one way street
    Nobody cares if you survive
    Sometimes you beg or you don't eat
    You gotta fight to stay alive
    Hey, you're never gonna get away

    Nothing is real in cardboard California
    Just waking up brings you down
    One lousy deal is cardboard California
    You just can't survive in a make believe town

    When they gave out eyes like diamonds
    That would shame the stars that shine
    My darlin' my darlin'
    You were the first in line
    When they gave out lips like honey
    That hold a new thrill every time
    My darlin' my darlin'
    You were the first in line

    There may be others
    That know you longer
    Who pledge their hearts to you
    But there's no other
    Could love you stronger
    Any stronger than I do
    Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
    I'm yours, oh please be mine
    My darlin' say I’m your darlin'
    The first, and the last in line

    The Crowd
    Composer(s): Roy Orbison - Joe Melson
    Performer(s): Roy Orbison



    I go out with the crowd, I play the game
    Pretending out loud but it don't seem the same
    For the heart of the crowd is gone from sight
    My part of the crowd is not with me tonight

    I remember the prom, every dance with you
    All the crazy things that we used to do
    Sometimes we'd wait for a chance
    And then we'd steal away
    From the crowd and the dance to our hideaway

    Aww, but you're gone and it's not the same old game
    I fall apart each time I hear your name
    Guess I'll go along with the crowd,
    I'll make believe
    That you'll come back to me, run back to me
    Hurry back to the crowd a-and me-e-e-e-e

    Il avait toujours dans la tête
    Le manège d'anciens tourments
    De la fenêtre par moment
    Parvenaient des bouffées de fête

    Où sont les lumières lointaines
    Voici fermés les yeux éteints
    Ce chant des lilas au matin
    De Montmartre à Mortefontaine

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Tu meurs sans avoir vu le drame
    Carco qui ne sus que chanter
    Te souviens-tu de cet été
    De Nice où nous nous rencontrâmes

    On faisait semblant d'être heureux
    Le ciel ressemblait à la mer
    Même l'aurore était amère
    C'était en l'an quarante-deux

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Excuse-moi que je le dise
    Dans ce Paris où tu n'es plus
    Comme Guillaume l'a voulu
    Qu'un nom qui se mélancolise

    Que l'avenir du moins n'oublie
    Ce qui fut le charme de l'air
    Le bonheur d'être et le vin clair
    La Seine douce dans son lit

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    Ce coeur que l'homme avec lui porte
    Ne change pas avec le vent
    Nous mettrons demain comme avant
    Des coquelicots à nos portes

    Les mots que nous avons cueillis
    Les voici pour celui qui meurt
    Passent les gens et tu demeures
    O poète de mon pays

    Dis qu'as-tu fait des jours enfuis
    De ta jeunesse et de toi-même
    De tes mains pleines de poèmes
    Qui tremblaient au bout de ta nuit

    First I Look At The Purse
    Composer(s): Smokey Robinson; Robert Rodgers
    Performer(s): The Contours;
    and various other artists



    Some fellas look at the eyes
    Some fellas look at the nose
    Some fellas look at the size
    Some fellas look at the clothes
    I don't care if her eyes are red
    I don't care if her nose is long
    I don't care if she's underfed
    I don't care if her clothes are worn
    First I look at the purse!
    Some fellas like the smiles they wear
    Some fellas like the legs that's all
    Some fellas like the style of their hair
    Want their waist to be small.
    I don't care if their legs are thin
    I don't care if their teeth are big
    I don't care if their hair's a wig
    Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
    First I look at the purse!
    A woman can be fat as can be
    kisses sweet as honey
    But that don't mean a thing to me
    If you ain't got no money
    If the purse is fat....that's where it's at
    Some fellas like the way they walk
    The way they swing and sway
    Some fellas like the way they talk
    Dig the things they say.
    I don't care if they wobble like a...
    or talk with a lisp
    I still think I'm a good lover
    if the dollar bills are crisp
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!
    I don't care if you got yourself a wrap
    all I want is your pretty green cash
    Bought me a suit, bought me a car
    Want me to look like a hollywood star
    Money, (Money!) I want money (Money!)
    Baby, ain't no "why", baby (Money!)
    I need money!
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!
    First I look at the purse!

    Crow On The Cradle
    Composer(s): Sidney Lee Carter
    Performer(s): Jackson Browne
    and multiple other artists



    The sheep's in the meadow
    The cow's in the corn
    Now is the time for a child to be born
    He'll laugh at the moon
    And cry for the sun
    And if it's a boy he'll carry a gun
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    And if it should be that this baby's a girl
    Never you mind if her hair doesn't curl
    With rings on her fingers
    And bells on her toes
    And a bomber above her wherever she goes
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    The crow on the cradle
    The black and the white
    Somebody's baby is born for a fight
    The crow on the cradle
    The white and the black
    Somebody's baby is not coming back
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    Your mother and father will sweat and they'll slave
    To build you a coffin and dig you a grave
    Hush-a-bye little one, never you weep
    For we've got a toy that can put you to sleep
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    Bring me my gun, and I'll shoot that bird dead
    That's what your mother and father once said
    The crow on the cradle, what can we do
    Ah, this is a thing that I'll leave up to you
    Sang the crow on the cradle
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    father once said
    A crow on the cradle what can we do
    This is the thing I must leave up to you
    Sang the crow on the cradle

    Carcassonne Composer(s): Georges Brassens - G. Nadaud Performer(s): Georges Brassens



    "Je me fais vieux, j'ai soixante ans
    J'ai travaillé toute ma vie
    Sans avoir, durant tout ce temps
    Pu satisfaire mon envie
    Je vois bien qu'il n'est ici-bas
    De bonheur complet pour personne
    Mon vœu ne s'accomplira pas
    Je n'ai jamais vu Carcassonne!"

    "On voit la ville de la-haut
    Derrière les montagnes bleues
    Mais, pour y parvenir, il faut
    Il faut faire cinq grandes lieues
    En faire autant pour revenir!
    Ah ! si la vendange était bonne!
    Le raisin ne veut pas jaunir
    Je ne verrai pas Carcassonne!"

    "On dit qu'on y voit tous les jours
    Ni plus ni moins que les dimanches
    Des gens s'en aller sur le cours
    En habits neufs, en robes blanches
    On dit qu'on y voit des châteaux
    Grands comme ceux de Babylone
    Un évêque et deux généraux!
    Je ne connais pas Carcassonne!"

    "Le vicaire a cent fois raison
    C'est des imprudents que nous sommes
    Il disait dans son oraison
    Que l'ambition perd les hommes
    Si je pouvais trouver pourtant
    Deux jours sur la fin de l'automne...
    Mon Dieu ! que je mourrais content
    Après avoir vu Carcassonne!"

    "Mon Dieu! mon Dieu! pardonnez-moi
    Si ma prière vous offense
    On voit toujours plus haut que soi
    En vieillesse comme en enfance
    Ma femme, avec mon fils Aignan
    A voyagé jusqu'à Narbonne
    Mon filleul a vu Perpignan
    Et je n'ai pas vu Carcassonne!"

    Ainsi chantait, près de Limoux
    Un paysan courbé par l'âge
    Je lui dis: "Ami, levez-vous
    Nous allons faire le voyage"
    Nous partîmes le lendemain
    Mais (que le bon Dieu lui pardonne!
    Il mourut à moitié chemin
    Il n'a jamais vu Carcassonne!
