The Needle And The Damage Done
Composer(s): Neil Young
First release by: Neil Young - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



I caught you knocking at my cellar door
I love you, baby, can I have some more?
Oh the damage done
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done

I sing the song because I love the man
I know that some of you don't understand
milk-blood to keep from runnin' out

I've seen The Needle And The Damage Done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin' sun

Ciao Come Stai
((French Version: Ne Lui Dis Pas (Dalida))
Composer(s): Lana Sebastian - Paul Sebastian - R. Arnaldi
Performer(s): Dalida



Ciao come stai 
Non sei cambiato sai 
Dal giorno che non so 
Perchè ti dissi no 

Da una do io 
No vivo più con lui 
Fra il suo corpo e il mio 
Il mio respiro e il suo 
Bruciavi sempre tu 

Ciao come stai 
Ma parlami di te 
Ciao come stai 
Di te senza di me 
Ciao come stai 
Come ti va che fai, come si chiama lei 

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Ma lasciati guardar 
Mi sembra di sognar 

Ciao come stai 
Non ti ho scordato mai 
E adesso che sei qui 
ll tempo fermerei 

Toccarti e poi 
Chiudere gli occhi e poi 
Sentirti ancora in me 
Che mi rifugio in te 
Cercando solo noi 

Ciao come stai 
Ma che pazza io 
Ciao come stai 
Averti detto addio 
Ciao come stai 
Che cosa non darei 
Per tornar con te 

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Ma lasciati guardar 
Mi sembra di sognar 

"Ma si che lo so , ora esiste lei 
no temere, non faccio storie la tua vita adesso è accanto a lei"

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Che cosa importa ormai 
Visto che te ne vai 

Ciao come stai 
Ma parlami di te 
Ciao come stai 
Di te senza di me 
Ciao come stai 
Che cosa non darei 

Ciao come...

The Nearness Of You
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Ned Washington
First performance: Gladys Swarthout - 1938
Covered by multiple other artists



It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams came true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

Mille violons chantent leur mélodie
Un arc-en-ciel dans le ciel se déplie
Mais il me semble être encore sous la pluie
Si malheureuse quand il m'a dit

Tchao Tchao Bambina
Dis-moi je t'aime
Pour la dernière, dernière fois
Bientôt petite
Je vais te perdre
J'ai de la peine
Embrasse-moi
Tchao Tchao Bambina
Un jour on s'aime
Et l'on se quitte
L'amour c'est ça...
Dans tes yeux tristes
Tout le ciel pleure
Et moi je pleure
Pleure avec toi!

Tchao Tchao Bambina
Dis-moi je t'aime
Pour la dernière, dernière fois
Bientôt petite
Je vais te perdre
J'ai de la peine
Embrasse-moi

Qui sait, ma route
Crois'ra la tienne
Peut-être un jour
Mais le ciel même
Ce soir en douce
Il pleure pleure
Sur notre amour!

The Navy Gets The Gravy, But The Army Gets The Beans
Composer(s): Jerry Livingston - Mack David
Performer(s): Jerry Lewis



In the Navy they get steak, caviar and whipped cream cake
They have fancy cooks who know what cooking means
In the Army we get mess, and it really is a mess
Oh, the Navy gets the gravy, but the Army gets the beans
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Send a salami, to your boy in the army
Yes, the Navy gets the gravy, but the Army gets the beans
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans beans
beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Nothing but beans
Navy service is ideal, printed menus ev'ry meal
And they decorate your plate with parsley greens
In the Army we get chow that you wouldn't feed a Chow
Oh, the Navy gets the gravy, but the Army gets the
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Beautiful beans, gorgeous beans, succulent beans
Send a baloney `cause I'm skinny and boney
Yes, the Navy gets the gravy, but the Army gets the
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, nothing but beans)
Loving those beans, loving those beans, liking those beans
Know what I mean, mammy I love you
Nothing but beans
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Oh, I was born at the age of three, as might' as I could be
Sure it takes a great mentality to dish out all the
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Oh, it seems bell bottomed pants are conducive to romance
They are wined and dined and loved by movie queens
But you wear a khaki frame and you get a wacky dame
Oh, the Navy gets the, the Army gets the
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
I hit the jackpot, but it's always a crackpot
Yes, the Navy gets the gravy, but the Army gets the beans
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)
Did you know that the Navy gets all of the gravy
Did you know that the Army gets all of the beans
Oh, a soldier's a coward if he doesn't lick the platter clean
Oh, a soldier's a coward if he leaves a solitary bean
Oh, it isn't the fighting that will make a soldier cross and mean
It is only the beans!
You can grab a marine and you show him a bean
He says: "what does it mean, that I never have seen"
So you grab a civilian, and one in a million can identify
So I say to you: "why do we got to have beans?"
Multiple beans, ??? beans, succulent beans
Nothing but beans
(beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans
beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans, beans)

La solita strada 
Bianca come il sale 
Il grano da crescere 
I campi da anane 
Guardare ogui giorno 
Se piove o c'è il sole 
Per saper se domani 
Si vive o si innore 
E un bel giorno dire basta e andare via 

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 

Andare via lontano 
Cercare un altro mondo 
Dire addio al cortile 
Andarsene sognando 

E poi mille strade 
Grige come il fumo 
In un mondo di luci 
Sentirsi nessuno 
In un giorno solo 
Soltare cent'anni 
Dai carri dei campi 
Agli aerei del cielo 
E sentirsi soli e ner voglia di tornare da te 

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore 

Non saper fare niente in un mondo che sa tutto 
E non avere un soldo nemmeno per tornare 

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao

Sag ich geh nie fort von dir

Where did the naughty little flea go
Nobody know, nobody know
Where did the naughty little flea go
Nobody know, nobody know

A naughty flea he came to town
Started searching up and down
Looking for a place to nest
Where he can get some food and rest

He saw a lady round and fat
He smiled a smile and tipped his hat
He said oh yes I’m goin’ have a ball
Man look at all that cholesterol

The naughty flea went to the beach
He saw such tasties in his reach
He said hurrah and thank you Lord
That’s what I call a small guest bug

The naughty flea went to the zoo
Saw a skunk and bit him too
He bit him in the usual place
And said Holy Macro what a taste

Sum up friends well can you see
The big advantage of being a flea
Just remember what ever you do
That what you bite is what you chew

Ein tag voller sonne 
So hat es begonnen 
Die nacht war voll tränen 
Das glück ist zerronnen 
Ich wollte ja bleiben 
Ich lebe so gerne 
Doch der Zug fahrt weiter 
In die dunkle ferne 
Und ich will leben, leben, leben 
Schön ist die Liebe 

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 

Einsam fliehen die tage 
Ein traum verweht im winde 
Einsam bleibt meine frage 
Ob ich dich wiederfinde 

Die glücklichen lieder 
Die einst wir gesungen 
Erklingen nie wieder 
Das glas ist zersprungen 

Ich suche vergebens 
Wohin ich mich wende 
Und der zug fahrt weiter 
Ohne ziel, ohne ende 
Doch ich will leben, leben, leben 
Schön ist die liebe 

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao 

Einsam fliehen die tage 
Ein traum verweht im winde

Naughty Lady Of Shady Lane
Composer(s): Sid Tepper - Roy C. Bennett
Performer(s): The Ames Brothers; Dean Martin; Alma Cogan



The naughty lady of Shady Lane
Has hit the town like a bomb
The back-fence gossip ain't been this good
Since Mabel ran off with Tom
Our town was peaceful and quiet
Before she came on the scene
The lady has started a riot
Disturbin' the suburban routine

The naughty lady of Shady Lane has the town in a whirl
The naughty lady of Shady Lane
Me-oh, my-oh, what a girl

You should see how she carries on
With her admirers galore
She must be givin' them quite a thrill
The way they flock to her door
She throws those come-hither glances
At every Tom, Dick, and Joe
When offered some liquid refreshment
The lady never never says "no"

The naughty lady of Shady Lane has the town in a whirl
The naughty lady of Shady Lane
Me-oh, my-oh, what a girl

The things they're trying to pin on her
Won't hold much water, for sure
Beneath the powder and fancy lace
There beats a heart sweet and pure
She just needs someone to change her
And she'll be nice as can be
If you're in the neighborhood, stranger
You're welcome to drop in and see

The naughty lady of Shady Lane
So delightful to hold
The naughty lady of Shady Lane
So delectable
Quite respectable
And she's only Nine Days Old!!!

Nous sommes deux ombres
Et deux solitudes
Un grand amour sombre
Dans les habitudes
Et l'on ose à peine
Rompre le silence
Mieux vaudrait la haine
Que l'indifférence
Mais je veux vivre vivre
Je veux qu'on m'aime

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao

Nous vivons dans du rose
Dans du gris monotone
J'ai besoin d'autre chose
Que d'un chat qui ronronne

Je veux voir le monde
Qu'il soit gai ou triste
Qu'il chante ou qu'il gronde
Pourvu qu'il existe
Je veux voir des villes
Qu'elles soient blanches ou rouges
Et des yeux qui brillent
Et des gens qui bougent
Moi je veux vivre vivre
Comme ceux qui s'aiment

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao

Je te laisse tes livres
La cloche de l'église
La tiédeur de vivre
Dans cette maison grise

Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao
Ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao amore, ciao

Ciao amore...

Regarde-Toi Paname
Composer(s): Pierre Frachet; Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat



Ne crâne donc pas tant Paname
Je n'voudrais pas te faire de peine
Mais on peut voir couler la Seine
Ailleurs qu'au pied de Notre-Dame

De Châtillon à l'estuaire
Elle baigne bien d'autres lieux
Grâce en soit rendue au Bon Dieu
Y'a pas que Paris sur la terre

Paname si tu te crois belle
C'est que tu n't'es pas regardée
Du côté du quai de Grenelle
Ou de Maubert/Mutualité

Paris le soir Paris la nuit
Tu bois tu gambilles tu t'empiffres
Et tu noies dans le son des fifres
Ta solitude et ton ennui

Paris tu vas paumer ta ligne
A force de mordre au gâteau
Tu prends du ventre à Rambuteau
T'es moins jeune et tu te résignes

Paname tu te crois mariolle
Mais tu ne t'es pas regardée
Sur le vieux pont des Batignolles
Y'a longtemps qu'on n'va plus danser

Tu trouves la misère importune
Mais tu portes tes beaux quartiers
Comme leurs bagues et leurs colliers
Les vieilles cocottes sans fortune

Mais à trois pas de tes beaux marbres
En face du quai de Passy
Y'a des mômes de par ici
Qui n'ont jamais grimpé aux arbres

Va rhabiller tes faux poètes
Paname t'as perdu la main
T'es plus bonne qu'aux Américains
Qui viennent se soûler à tes fêtes

Troupeau de toi fleuve tranquille
Ciel généreux pavé têtu
Grande gueule et petite vertu
Paname t'es quand même ma ville

Y'a des revers à tes médailles
Des rimes pauvres à tes poèmes
Pour cent palais pour cent ripailles
Combien de taudis de carêmes

Et pourtant je n'ai pas l'envie
De traîner ailleurs mes souliers
C'est là qu'j'ai commencé ma vie
C'est là que je la finirai

The Narrow Way
Composer(s): David Gilmour
Performer(s): Pink Floyd



Following the path
As it leads towards the Darkness in the North
Weary strangers' faces show their sympathy
They've seen that hope before
And if you want to stay
For a little bit
Rest your aching limbs
For a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aging eyes
Be on your way

Mist is swelling
Creatures crawling
Hear the roar get louder in your ears
You know the folly was your own
But the force behind can't conquer all your fears
And if you want to stay
For a little bit
Rest your aching limbs
For a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aging eyes
Be on your way

Throw your thoughts back many years
To the time when there was life in every morning
Perhaps a day will come
When the nights will be as on that morning
And if you want to stay
For a little bit
Rest your aching limbs
For a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aging eyes
Be on your way

Ciao

C’è stato come un lampo lì proprio in mezzo al cielo
che era blu cobalto liscio, liscio senza un pelo
la città sotto era un presepio, le luci del tramonto
la scia di un aereo, facevano più bello il mondo
dello sforzo dei poeti, dei mezzi giornalisti
puttane e kossovari, poi altri tipi misti
contavano le stelle, le prime ad arrivare
poi la voce di una vecchia
che salutava tutti quanti dicendo ciao

Ciao
E’ la colpa di non so di chi

Ciao
E’ la colpa di non so di chi

Ciao

La spiaggia di Riccione, milioni di persone
le pance sotto il sole, il gelato e l’ombrellone
abbronzati un coglione, non l’hai capito ancora
che siamo stati sempre in guerra
anche il 15 a Viserba
in guerra con noi stessi, tra video e giornali
e noi sempre più lessi a farci abbindolare
con la nostra indifferenza, la passione per le cose
che non possiamo stare senza
anche le pericolose
come ad esempio una canzone
mentre la stai cantando
di là qualcuno muore
qualcun altro sta nascendo
è il gioco della vita
la dobbiamo preparare
che non ci sfugga dalle dita
come la sabbia in riva al mare

Ciao
E’ la colpa di non so di chi

Ciao
E’ la colpa di non so di chi

Ciao

Dis pourquoi
Tu baisses tes beaux yeux comme ça
Allons regarde-toi
Et ton miroir lui-même te le dira
Regarde-toi
Tu verras si tu es jolie
Dis pourquoi
Tes mains ne servent qu'à servir
Allons regarde-toi
Ces mains sont dessinées pour le plaisir
Si j'étais roi
Tout mon empire pour ces mains-là

Si tu pars
Tu m'enlèves le soleil de l'Italie
La vie, l'espoir
Et l'espoir de vivre mieux que ma vie

Regarde-toi
C'est pas bientôt fini ces violons
Si j'étais toi
Je regarderais les beaux garçons
Dis pour toi
Je viendrais ici à genoux
Allons regarde-moi, regarde-moi
Est-ce que tu veux me rendre fou

Si tu pars
Tu m'enlèves le soleil de l'Italie
La vie, l'espoir
Et l'espoir de vivre mieux que ma vie

The Name Of The Game
Composer(s): Stig Anderson - Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus
First release by: ABBA - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists



I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know...

What's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know...

The name of the game

I have no friends, no-one to see
And I am never invited
Now I am here, talking to you
No wonder I get excited

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know...

What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice)
(But it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know...
Oh yes I wanna know...

The name of the game
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your face)
(That it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice)
(But it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?

Ci Vorrebbe Un Amico
Composer(s): Antonello Venditti
First release by: Antonello Venditti - 1984



Stare insieme a te, è stata una partita
va bene hai vinto tu, e tutto il resto è vita
ma se penso che l'amore è darsi tutto nel profondo
in questa nostra storia sono io che vado a fondo

Ci vorrebbe un amico, per poterti dimenticare
ci vorrebbe un amico per dimenticare il mare
ci vorrebbe un amico
qui per sempre al mio fianco
ci vorrebbe un amico nel dolore e nel rimpianto

Amore, amore illogico, amore disperato
lo vedi sto piangendo, ma io ti ho perdonato
e se amor che nullo amato, amore, amore mio perdona
in questa notte fredda mi basta una parola

Vivere con te, è stata una partita
il gioco è stato duro comunque sia è finita
ma sarà la notte magica o forse l'emozione
io mi ritrovo solo davanti al tuo portone
