    The Lady Loves Me
    Composer(s): Sid Tepper - Roy C. Bennett
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley & Ann-Margret



    EP:
    She loves me, she loves me not
    She loves me, she loves me not
    She loves me, she loves me, she loves me
    The lady loves me and it shows
    In spite of the way she turns up her nose
    I'm her ideal, her heart's desire
    Under that ice she's burning like fire
    She'd like to cuddle up to me
    She's playing hard to get
    The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

    AM:
    The gentleman has savoir-faire
    As much as an elephant or a bear
    I'd like to take him for a spin
    Back to the zoo to visit his kin
    He's got about as much appeal as a soggy cigarette
    The lady loathes him but he doesn't know it yet

    EP: The lady's got a crush on me
    AM: The gentleman's crazy obviously
    EP: The lady's dying to be kissed
    AM: The gentleman needs a psychiatrist
    I'd rather kiss a rattlesnake
    Or play Russian roulette
    EP: The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

    EP: She's falling fast she's on the skids
    AM: Both of his heads are flipping their lids
    EP: Tonight she'll hold me in her arms
    AM: I'd rather be holding hydrogen bombs
    Will someone tell this Romeo
    I'm not his Juliette
    EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

    EP: She wants me
    AM: Like poison ivy
    EP: Needs me
    AM: Like a hole in the head
    EP: Anyone can see she's got it bad
    AM: Ha, he's mad!

    AM: The gentleman is an egotist
    EP: I'm simply aware I'm hard to resist
    AM: He's one man I could learn to hate
    EP: How's about having dinner at eight
    AM: I'd rather dine with Frankenstein
    In a moonlight tete-a-tete
    EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

    EP: Ah yes she loves me
    AM: Dig that shrinking violet
    EP: Oh she really loves me
    AM: Here's one gal you'll never get
    EP: She lo-lo-loves me
    AM: Would you like to make a bet
    EP: I said the lady loves me
    AM; The gentleman's all wet

    Change The Name
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Michelle Shocked



    Well, of course, this actually happened
    In the reconstruction days of the South it got to be pretty serious
    when the carpet-baggers came down and started running the whole show down here
    And things were especially rough up in the state of Arkansas
    when it was very seriously proposed to change the name of the state
    And this is taken down on the Legislative rolls which can now be found
    I think, under the date of July the 23rd, 1867
    And this is what the hometown boy had to say
    I think first he pulled out his horse-pistol and laid it across his desk so he wouldn't be interrupted

    Mr Speaker, god-damn your soul, for more than thirty minutes I've been trying to get your attention
    but every time I caught your eye you squirmed like a damn dog with a flea in his ass

    I guess you know who I am Sir
    My name is Cassius M. Johnson from Jackson County, Arkansas
    where a man can't stick his ass out the window and shit without it getting riddled with bullets
    Why Sir, I was fourteen years old before I had my first pair of pants and they was of buckskin
    But at the age of seventeen Mr Speaker, I had a jock on me the size of a roasting ear and it was the pride of Jackson County
    And you propose to change the name of Arkansas
    Never, by God Sir, never!

    I'm out of order?
    How can I be out of order when I can piss clear across the Mississippi River?

    Where was Andrew Jackson when the battle of New Orleans was fought?
    He was right thar Sir, up to his ass in blood
    And you change the name of Arkansas?
    Never, when I can defend her

    You may shit on the grave of George Washington
    Piss on the monument of Thomas Jefferson
    You may desecrate the sacred remains of the immortal General Robert E. Lee
    You may rape the Goddess of Liberty and wipe your ass on the Stars and Stripes
    And your crime, your crime Sir will no more compare to this hellish design
    than the glow of a lightning-bug's ass to the glare of the noon days sun
    And you propose to change the name of Arkansas
    Never, by God Sir, never!

    You may compare the lily of the valley to the glorious sunflower
    Or the sun-kissed peaks of the highest mountains to the smokin' turd of a dunghill
    Or the classic strains of Mozart to the fart of a Mexican burrow
    You may compare the puny penis of a Peruvian prince to the ponderous buttocks of the Roman gladiator
    But change the name of Arkansas?
    Never, by God Sir, never!

    From Hank To Hendrix
    Composer(s): Neil Young
    Performer(s): Neil Young



    From Hank to Hendrix
    I walked these streets with you
    Here I am with this old guitar
    Doin' what I do

    I always expected
    That you should see me through
    I never believed in much
    But I believed in you

    Can we get it together
    Can we still stand side by side
    Can we make it last
    Like a musical ride?

    From Marilyn to Madonna
    I always loved your smile
    Now we're headed for the big divorce
    California-style

    I found myself singin'
    Like a long-lost friend
    The same thing that makes you live
    Can kill you in the end

    Can we get it together
    Can we still stand side by side
    Can we make it last
    Like a musical ride?

    Sometime it's distorted
    Not clear to you
    Sometimes the beauty of love
    Just comes ringin' through

    New glass in the window
    New leaf on the tree
    New distance between us
    You and me

    Can we get it together
    Can we still walk side by side
    Can we make it last
    Like a musical ride?

    The Lady Is A Tramp
    Composer(s): Richard Rogers - Lorenz Hart
    First performance: Mitzi Green - 1937
    Covered by multiple other artists



    She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
    She likes the theatre and never comes late
    She never bothers with people she'd hate
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    Doesn't like crap games with barons or earls
    Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
    Won't dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    She likes the free, fresh wind in her hair
    Life without care
    She's broke, and it's *"ok"*

    Hates California, it's cold and it's damp
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    She gets too hungry to wait for dinner at eight
    She loves the theatre but never comes late
    She'd never bother with people she'd hate
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    She'll have no crap games with sharpies and frauds
    And she won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords
    And she won't dish the dirt with the rest of the broads
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    She'd love the free, fresh wind in her hair
    Life without care
    She's broke, but it's *"ok"*

    Hates California, it's so cold and so damp
    That's why the lady
    That's why the lady
    That's why the lady is a tramp

    Change Pas De Look Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



    Te change pas pour moi
    J'te trouve très bien comme ça
    Inutile de lutter
    T'es très bien maquillée
    Change pas de look
    Change pas de look
    Change pas de look
    Ou tu vas me retrouver raide devant la télé

    J't'aime naturelle
    C'est pas compliqué
    J' veux t' reconnaître
    J't'aime pas déguisée

    Samson sans Dalila
    C'est l' bide au cinéma
    Billy Kid sans Garret
    C'est du théâtre grec
    Change pas de look
    Change pas de look
    Change pas de look
    Ou je vais m' momifier pour le restant de la soirée

    J't'aime naturelle
    C'est pas compliqué
    J' veux t' reconnaître
    J't'aime pas déguisée

    Nemo sans sous-marin
    C'est de Gaulle sans Pétain
    Les Robins sans les bois
    Plus de biche aux abois

    Sherlock Holmes sans Watson
    N'intéresse plus personne
    D'façon moi y a pas de doute
    Ne change pas de look

    Laurel sans Hardy
    C'est Paul sans Virginie
    Franckie sans son Johnny
    C'est feuilleton Monoprix

    Change pas de look
    Change pas de look
    Ou tu vas me retrouver raide devant la télé

    J't'aime naturelle
    C'est pas compliqué
    J' veux t' reconnaître
    J't'aime pas déguisée

    Milou sans son Tintin
    C'est Blanche-Neige sans sept nains
    La télé sans l'État
    C'est du space-opera
    La sardine est à l'huile
    Le maquereau au vin blanc
    Cherche pas à La Redoute
    Ce que tu trouves au Printemps
    D'façon moi y a pas de doute

    From A Window
    Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
    Performer(s): Billy J. Kramer;
    and various other artists



    Late yesterday night
    I saw a light shine from a window
    And as I looked again
    Your face came into sight

    I couldn't walk on
    Until you'd gone from your window
    I had to make you mine
    I knew you were the one

    Oh, I would be so glad
    Just to have a love like that
    Oh, I would be so true
    And I'd live my life for you

    So meet me tonight
    Just where the light shines from a window
    And as I take your hand
    Say that you'll be mine tonight

    Oh, I would be so glad
    Just to have a love like that
    Oh, I would be true
    And I'd give my life for you

    So meet me tonight
    Just where the light shines from a window
    And as I take your hand
    Say that you'll be mine tonight

    Lady Came From Baltimore ((aka Sussy Moore (Lollipops) - 1967))
    Composer(s): Tim Hardin
    First recording/First release by: Bobby Darin - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Lady came from Baltimore
    All she wore was lace
    She didn't know that I was poor
    She never saw my place

    I was there to steal her money
    Take her rings and run
    Then I fell in love with the lady
    Got away with none

    The lady's name was Susan Moore
    Her daddy read the law
    She didn't know that I was poor
    And lived outside the law

    Her daddy said, I was a thief
    And didn't marry her for love
    I was Susan's true belief
    Married her for love

    I was there to steal her money
    To take her rings and run
    Then I fell in love with the lady
    Got away with none

    The house she lived in had a wall
    To keep the robbers out
    She'd never stop to think at all
    If that's what I'm about

    I was there to steal her money
    Take her rings and run
    Then I fell in love with the lady
    Got away with none

    Change Partners Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Fred Astaire and multiple other artists



    Must you dance every dance
    With the same fortunate man?
    You have danced with him since the music began
    Won't you change partners and dance with me?

    Must you dance quite so close
    With your lips touching his face?
    Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place?
    Won't you change partners and dance with me?

    Ask him to sit this one out
    And while you're alone
    I'll tell the waiter to tell him
    He's wanted on the telephone

    You've been locked in his arms
    Ever since heaven-knows-when
    Won't you change partners and then
    You may never want to change partners again

    Ask him to sit this one out
    And while you're alone
    I'll tell the waiter to tell him
    He's wanted on the telephone

    You've been locked in his arms
    Ever since heaven-knows-when
    Won't you change partners and then
    You may never have to change partners again

    From A Whisper To A Scream
    Composer(s): Allen Toussaint
    Performer(s): Robert Palmer;
    Esther Phillips; Allen Toussaint



    From a whisper in the wind
    To a loud scream
    The message came
    That I'd lost you
    To the warmth of another man

    I've seen more tears fall from your eyes
    Than all the showers of April
    I took kindness for granted
    As if it came with the wallpaper

    So inconsiderate of how much you cared
    For some stupid reason, I just thought you had to be there
    Oh my love
    Oh my love
    Oh my love
    Oh my love

    I simply must have been crazy
    Or I must have been out of my mind
    For me to overlook the need in you
    Tell me, how could I have been so blind

    Never giving thoughts to your wants and needs
    Now I'm begging you please
    Oh my love
    Oh my love

    So inconsiderate of how much you cared
    For some stupid reason, I just thought you had to be there
    Oh my love
    Oh my love
    Oh my love

    The Ladies Who Lunch
    Composer(s): Stephen Sondheim
    Performer(s): Ute Lemper
    and multiple other artists



    I'd like to propose a toast

    Here's to the ladies who lunch
    Everybody laugh.
    Lounging in their caftans
    And planning a brunch
    On their own behalf
    Off to the gym
    Then to a fitting
    Claiming they're fat
    And looking grim
    'Cause they've been sitting
    Choosing a hat
    Does anyone still wear a hat?
    I'll drink to that
    And here's to the girls who play smart
    Aren't they a gas?
    Rushing to their classes
    In optical art
    Wishing it would pass
    Another long exhausting day
    Another thousand dollars
    A matinee, a Pinter play
    Perhaps a piece of Mahler's
    I'll drink to that
    And one for Mahler!
    And here's to the girls who play wife
    Aren't they too much?
    Keeping house but clutching
    A copy of "Life"
    Just to keep in touch
    The ones who follow the rules
    And meet themselves at the schools
    Too busy to know that they're fools
    Aren't they a gem?
    I'll drink to them!
    Let us all drink to them!
    And here's to the girls who just watch
    Aren't they the best?
    When they get depressed
    It's a bottle of Scotch
    Plus a little jest
    Another chance to disapprove
    Another brilliant zinger
    Another reason not to move
    Another vodka stinger
    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!
    I'll drink to that
    So here's to the girls on the go
    Everybody tries
    Look into their eyes
    And you'll see what they know
    Everybody dies
    A toast to that invincible bunch
    The dinosaurs surviving the crunch
    Let's hear it for the ladies who lunch
    Everybody rise!
    Rise!
    Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise!
    Rise!

    Change Of The Guard Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen Performer(s): Steely Dan



    If you listen you can hear it
    It's the laughter in the street
    It's the motion in the music
    And the fire beneath your feet
    All the signs are right this time
    You don't have to try so very hard
    If you live in this world
    You're feelin' the change of the guard

    All the cowboys and your neighbors
    Can you swallow up your pride
    Take your guns off if you're willin'
    And you know we're on your side
    If you wanna get thru the years
    It's high time you played your card
    If you live in this world
    You're feelin' the change of the guard

    What's the use in half a story, half a dream

    It just takes a beat
    To turn it around
    Yes I'm waiting for your change of heart
    At the edge of my seat
    Please turn it around

    Days go by
    Leaving me with a hunger
    I could fly
    Back to when we were younger
    When adventures like cars we would ride
    And the years lied ahead still untried
    While I stand here

    Waiting for your change of heart...

    Blind leading blind
    Never hear the laughter
    Search through time
    Nothing reveals the answer
    If it's truth that you're looking to find
    It is nowhere outside of your mind
    I bide my time
    Waiting for your change of heart...

    From A Jack To A King
    Composer(s): Ned Miller
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
    and various other artists



    From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding ring
    I've played a ace and I won the queen
    I walked away with your heart
    From a jack to a king
    With no regrets I stacked, I stacked the cards, I stacked the cards last night
    And lady luck played her hand just right
    You made me king of your heart
    Oh for just a little while I thought that I might lose the game
    Oh but just in time I saw that twinkle in your eyes
    From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
    I played an ace and I won the queen
    You made me king of your heart
    For just a little while I thought that I might lose the game
    Oh but just in time I saw, I saw that twinkle in your eyes
    From a jack to a king from loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
    I played an ace and I won the queen
    You made me king of your heart

    The Lad Searches The Night For His Newts
    Performer(s): Frank Zappa



    Dew
    On the newts we got
    Newt money dew
    It's a payment on the rental for the dewy little
    Newts we got
    We got 'em dewy
    Left 'em in the yard all night
    Hope they didn't get uptight
    The little vixens
    The saucy little vixens
    I hope they didn't get pissed off
    I hope
    That they did not
    Did not
    I hope
    That they did not
    Dash off
    Into the night

    Change Of Habit Composer(s): Buddy Kaye - Bernie Weisman First recording/First release by: Elvis Presley - 1969/1970



    If you're in old habits
    Set in your old ways
    Changes are a-comin'
    For these are changing days
    And if your head is in the sand
    While things are goin' on
    What you need, what you need,
    What you need is a change of habit

    Now if you're in the habit
    To let your temper fly
    When you talk with people
    Who don't see eye to eye
    And if you don't believe it
    There's a newer world ahead
    What you need, what you need,
    What you need is a change of habit

    A change of habit, a change of outlook
    A change of heart, you'll be all right
    The halls of darkness
    Have doors that open
    It's never too late
    To see the light

    So if you're in the habit
    Of putting people down
    Just because they're different
    From the wrong side of town
    Well, don't count on any medals son
    They're pinning none on you
    What you need, what you need,
    What you need is a change of habit

    From A Distance
    Composer(s): Julie Gold
    Performer(s): Bette Midler



    From a distance, the world looks blue and green
    And the snow-capped mountains white
    From a distance, the ocean meets the stream
    And the eagle takes to flight
    From a distance, there is harmony
    And it echoes through the land
    It's the voice of hope
    It's the voice of peace
    It's the voice of every man

    From a distance, we all have enough

    And no one is in need
    There are no guns, no bombs, no diseases
    No hungry mouths to feed
    From a distance, we are instruments
    Marching in a common band
    Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
    They're the songs of every man
    From a distance, you look like my friend

    Even though we are at war
    From a distance I just cannot comprehend
    What all this fighting is for
    From a distance there is harmony
    And it echoes through the land
    It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
    It's the heart of every man

    The Knife Feels Like Justice
    Composer(s): Brian Setzer
    Performer(s): Brian Setzer



    So you think that you have found
    A better life that you should live
    And you're through givin' it all away
    I wish there's something I could say
    Like the time you looked into the mirror
    And saw someone else lookin' back
    I wish I could find the words
    But there's nothing that even comes close

    'Cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right through me
    There ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right by me
    And you can't go when the knife feels like justice

    When the sun dies down, the air grows cold
    And the moon plays tricks in the night
    Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight
    Your guide is the northern light
    You wanna laugh say I'm insane
    Don't have the sense to come in from the rain
    I know how to keep myself between the drops

    There ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right through me
    There ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right by me
    And you can't go when the knife feels like justice
    slip away
    slip away
    slip away
    slip away

    So you think that you have won me over
    By settin' me on fire
    With the sound of your beating heart
    And you're burnin' hot desire
    Like the time I looked at your reflections
    And saw someone else lookin' back
    It's a shame things happen that way
    'Cause there's no one that even comes close

    And there ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right through me
    There ain't nobody ever looked at me
    Without lookin' right by me
    And you can't go when the knife feels like justice
    I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you
    You can't go on when the knife feels like justice

    Change In The Weather Composer(s): John Fogerty First release by: John Fogerty - 1986



    Aaah!

    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    Somethin's happenin' here
    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    People walkin' round in fear

    Uh huh, you better duck and run
    Get under cover 'cause the change has come
    Storm warning, and it looks like rain
    Be nothin' left after the hurricance
    This here's a jungle, ain't no lie
    Look at the people, terror in their eyes
    Bad business comin', can't be denied
    They're running with the dogs, afraid to die

    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    Somethin's happenin' here
    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    People walkin' round in fear

    Uh huh, you best believe it's true
    The levee's busted, badness comin' through
    Oh no, there ain't no place to hide
    Reach out and pluck you, take you for a ride
    Sea of frustration, take everything in sight
    Won't be no blessing if we make it through the night
    Down on your knees, go ahead and pray
    But every demon has to have his day

    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    Somethin's happenin' here
    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    People walkin' round in fear

    Well! Oh, God!

    High noon, I can't believe my eyes
    Wind is ragin', there's a fire in the sky
    Ground shakin', everything comin' loose
    Run like a coward but it ain't no use
    Edge of the river, it's an ugly scene
    People gettin' pushed, people gettin' mean
    The change is comin' and it's gettin' late
    Ain't no survivin', and there ain't no escape

    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    Somethin's happenin' here
    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    People walkin' round in fear

    Oh!

    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    Somethin's happenin' here
    Change in the weather, change in the weather
    People walkin' round in fear

    Well! Oh, no!
