    The Virgin
    Composer(s): Gene Clark
    Performer(s): Gene Clark



    She went off to the city
    To find what she was looking for
    To identify, to really try
    To find herself some hope
    With the summer sun for laughing
    And the winter rain did pour
    She was lovelier from learning
    And from living, loving more
    From her dancing love and young soul
    And the gypsies in her dream
    To the pulse of stark acceptance
    When the winds began to freeze
    With no curfews left to hold her
    And no walls to shield her pain
    Finding out that facts were older
    And that life forms are insane
    The presence of protection seemed
    To fade, as did her doubt
    That she now was no exception
    Nor was the love who pushed her out

    Though the streets cried out
    Go, homesick
    Virtues strength of mind would ring
    In the maladies of meaning
    The sad song she learned to sing
    Now, her teachers and philosophers
    And the poet`s silver throat
    Are the vessels which on wisdom`s karmic ocean she will float
    Was this her revolution
    Just a child in love`s crusade
    With the question in her innocence
    Through the lies her eyes betrayed?

    Comme À Ostende
    Composer(s): Jean-Roger Caussimon; Léo Ferré
    First release: Léo Ferré



    On voyait les chevaux d'la mer
    Qui fonçaient la têt' la première
    Et qui fracassaient leur crinière
    Devant le casino désert
    La barmaid avait dix-huit ans
    Et moi qui suis vieux comm' l'hiver
    Au lieu d'me noyer dans un verr'
    Je m'suis baladé dans l'printemps
    De ses yeux taillés en amande

    Ni gris ni verts, ni gris ni verts
    Comme à Ostende et comm' partout
    Quand sur la ville tombe la pluie
    Et qu'on s'demande si c'est utile
    Et puis surtout si ça vaut l'coup
    Si ça vaut l'coup d'vivre sa vie

    J'suis parti vers ma destinée
    Mais voilà qu'une odeur de bière
    De frites et de moul's marinières
    M'attir' dans un estaminet
    Là y avait des typ's qui buvaient
    Des rigolos des tout rougeauds
    Qui s'esclaffaient qui parlaient haut
    Et la bière on vous la servait
    Bien avant qu'on en redemande

    Oui ça pleuvait, oui ça pleuvait
    Comme à Ostende et comm' partout
    Quand sur la ville tombe la pluie
    Et qu'on s'demande si c'est utile
    Et puis surtout si ça vaut l'coup
    Si ça vaut l'coup d'vivre sa vie

    On est allé, bras d'ssus, bras d'ssous
    Dans l'quartier où y a des vitrines
    Remplies de présenc's féminines
    Qu'on veut s'payer quand on est sôul
    Mais voilà que tout au bout d'la rue
    Est arrivé un limonair'
    Avec un vieil air du tonnerr'
    À vous fair' chialer tant et plus
    Si bien que tous les gars d'la bande

    Se sont perdus, se sont perdus
    Comme à Ostende et comm' partout
    Quand sur la ville tombe la pluie
    Et qu'on s'demande si c'est utile
    Et puis surtout si ça vaut l'coup
    Si ça vaut l'coup d'vivre sa vie

    Rock Steady
    Composer(s): Sting
    Performer(s): Sting



    Saw an ad in the newspaper that caught my eye
    I said to my baby this sounds like the ticket for you and I
    It said volunteers wanted for a very special trip
    To commune with Mother Nature on a big wooden ship
    We took a taxi to the river in case any places were free
    There was an old guy with a beard
    And every kind of creature as far as the eye could see

    This old guy was the boss he said "I won't tell you no lie
    But there's more to this journey than is apparent to the eye"
    He said he'd heard God's message on the radio
    It was going to rain forever and he'd told him to go
    "I'll protect you all don't worry I'll be father to you all
    I'll save two of every animal, no matter how small
    But I'll need some assistants to look after the zoo
    I can't see nobody better so you'll just have to do"
    I said, "Just tell me something before it's too late and we're gone
    I mean just how safe is this boat we'll be on?"

    "It's Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady"

    It rained for forty days and forty long nights
    I'd never seen rain like it and it looked like our old friend
    Was being proved right
    We had no time to worry though there was just too much to do
    Between the signified monkey and the kangaroo
    We had to wash all the animals we had to feed them too
    We were merely human slaves in a big floating zoo
    She said, "Hey baby I don't mean to be flip
    But it seems this old man is on some power trip"
    I said, "No, no sugar you must be wrong
    I mean look at the size of this boat we're on
    We're as safe as houses, as safe as mother's milk
    He's as cool as November and as smooth as China silk
    He's God's best friend, he's got a seat on the board
    And life may be tough but we're sailing with the lord"

    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady

    Woke up this morning and something had changed
    Like a room in my house had just been rearranged
    She said, "It's stopped raining and I know the guy's kind
    But if we stay here much longer I'm gonna lose my mind"
    So we said we had a mission for his favorite dove
    To see if there was any mercy from this great God above
    So to find dry land, away the white bird flew
    We didn't need no country just a rock would do
    When the dove came back to us he threw down a twig
    It was manna from heaven and meant we could blow this gig
    "But the rock's too small," he said, "can't you see?"
    I said, "It's just perfect for her, it's perfect for me"

    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady
    Rock steady / Rock steady

    The Violet The Rose And You
    Composer(s): Joe Hiller - Geo. F. Olcott



    The shades of night were falling and the sun had gone to rest
    In dreams I seemed to see the one I've always loved the best
    She stood among the roses where perfume filled the air
    'Twas the love light from her eyes so bright that put me in despair

    The roses lose their splendor and they droop when you're away
    The stars don't shine so brightly and I miss you more each day
    You've made the world a garden of roses filled with love
    You are all to me in this wide world, you're mine by the stars above

    The Violet, the rose and You, dear, that I met in the garden of love
    The moonlight, the sunshine, all came with you, you brighten the heavens above
    Each rose seemed to tell a story of your love so fond and true
    I need you, I want you, I love you forever
    the Violet, the Rose and You

    and various other artists



    Voici, contée sur une valse musette
    L'histoire en quelques mots
    Du beau roman d'une jeune midinette
    Et d'un p'tit Parigot
    Tous les refrains d'amour sont un peu bêtes
    Celui là l'est aussi
    Mais si vous r'prenez en chœur ma chansonnette
    Je vous dirai: Merci!

    Elle était jeune et belle
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il eut l'béguin pour elle
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Elle était demoiselle
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il se débrouilla pour qu'elle ne le soit plus!
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Ils se mirent en ménage
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Elle avait du courage
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il était au chômage
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Ça lui f'sait déjà un gentil p'tit rev'nu...
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Voulant faire un' folie
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il offrit à sa mie
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Un billet d'la lot'rie
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Ça n'lui fit jamais que cent ball's de perdues ...
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Mais il se mit à boire
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Ell' ne fit pas d'histoires
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Mais pour n'pas être un' poire
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Ell' se consola en le faisant cocu
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Il la trouva mauvaise
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Mais elle ram'nait du pèze
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Au lieu de ram'ner sa fraise
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il se contenta d'lui foutr' son pied au cul
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Et, depuis, l'on raconte
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Qu'il y trouve son compte
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Et, quand chez lui, on monte
    Comm' de bien entendu!
    Il s'en va faire un p'tit tour au P.M.U....
    Comm' de bien entendu!

    Hey kids rock and roll
    Rock on, ooh my soul
    Hey kids boogey too, did ya

    Hey shout, summertime blues
    Jump up and down in my blue suede shoes
    Hey kids rock and roll, rock on

    And where do we go from here?
    Which is the way that's clear

    Still looking for that blue jean, baby queen
    Prettiest girl I've ever seen
    See her shake on the movie screen, Jimmy Dean

    Composer(s): Eula Parker
    Performer(s): Andy Williams; Jack Jones; Vera Lynn



    I've travelled far, the land and the sea
    Beautiful places I happened to be
    One little town I'll never forget
    Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

    Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
    Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia

    There, like a dream, this wonderful night
    I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
    A feeling divine swept over me there
    I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

    Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
    Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia

    Now I am home, I'm happy to be
    Telling of places I've travelled to see
    One little town I'll never forget
    Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

    Performer(s): John Wetton



    Sanctuary
    When all hope deserted me
    This will forever, always be
    Something so close to me

    My Rock of Faith

    Pulling me
    Like the heat of the sun
    Calling to Mercury
    Now till eternity
    Before my eye

    I’ll never stand alone, for I
    Have the foundation stone I knew
    So as my spirits rise anew
    Then with all speed
    To the path
    That will lead
    Surely back to You……

    Strangely now
    How the air’s getting cold
    Shadows appear on the wall
    The feeling of old
    Lifting me up again

    My Rock of Faith

    And if I start to fall
    I fear nothing at all…

    ((French Version: Obsession (Julien Clerc) - 2003))
    Composer(s): Ray Noble
    First release by: Ray Noble and His Orch. - 1934
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The very thought of you and I forget to do
    The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
    I'm living in a kind of daydream
    I'm happy as a king
    And foolish though it may seem
    To me that's everything

    The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
    You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
    I see your face in every flower
    Your eyes in stars above
    It's just the thought of you
    The very thought of you, my love

    The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
    You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
    I see your face in every flower
    Your eyes in stars above
    It's just the thought of you
    The very thought of you, my love

    I get my kicks from rock and roll
    A 12 bar boogie gonna bless my soul
    Wanna dance to that rhythm
    Get down to that rockin' beat
    I don't wanna play no heavy jazz
    With high class music
    And its stuffed shirt nights
    'Cos I wanna be a rock 'n roll star
    And make my money out of playin' guitar

    *'Cos I'm a rock and roller
    I'm gonna rock it, gonna roll all over
    I'm gonna shake it to the midnight stroller
    And rock the night away
    *repeat

    I don't wanna play no Memphis soul
    I don't want funk - just rock and roll
    Gonna dance to the rhythm get down to that rockin' beat
    Make my name in the headline news
    There I'm busted singin' the blues
    I must find myself a rock 'n roll band
    I'll play my music just as fast as I can

    *chorus
    Okay people
    Get your rockin' shoes on
    Stroll us with the

    Yes I'm a rock and roller

    The Vegetarian

    Dolittle:
    The Day That I Became A Vet'rinarian
    I Had A Sudden Overwhelming Wish
    To Be A Pure And Simple Vegetarian
    And Give Up Eating All That Meat And Fish

    Tommy
    I Think That's Marvellous!

    Matthew
    Meat's Very Unhealthy For You!

    Dolittle
    Yes...

    So Now I Live On Healthy Food Instead!
    Like Apple Cores
    And Parsnip Juice
    And Chunks Of Plain Brown Bread!

    When I See My Fellow Men
    Consuming Sirloin Steak
    And I Find Myself Enjoying Tea And Dundee Cake
    There Is Really Only One Conclusion I Can Make
    I'm A Devoted Vegetarian!

    No, You Don't, You Little Pig! You've Had Yours! Oh All Right, Then - But Only
    A Little! You See What I Mean? This Is His Tenth Meal Today!

    When My Host At Dinner Offers
    Succulent Roast Beef
    Proudly I Refuse It
    People Stare In Disbelief
    Lost In Admiration As I Nibble On A Leaf
    A Very Noted Vegetarian!

    I Don't Even Eat Horseradish, In Case I Upset The Horses!

    I Stay Away From Devilled Ham On Principle!
    I Wouldn't Eat Roast Duckling If I Could!
    Will Power Has Made Me Invincible!...
    My Word, Those Sausages Do Look Good!

    Turnip Pie And Peanuts
    That's The Sort Of Filth I Eat!
    Any Sort Of Rubbish
    That Is Wholesome And Discreet!
    Why Don't I Admit That My Hypocrisy's Complete?
    If I Should Live To Be A Centenarian
    Become Our Most Adored Humanitarian
    I'll Never Make A Decent Vegetarian!
    I'm A Cheat!
    I Love Meat
    I'm A Cheat
    Yes, I Am!
    I Love Red-Blooded Juicy Chunks Of Meat!
    Legs Of Lamb!
    Sides Of Beef 'N' Chops 'N' Steak 'N' Veal!
    And Pork, Of Course! - My Favourite Meal!

    And Then I Hear Poor Gub-Gub Squeal!
    Oh Me! Oh My!
    A Reluctant But Sincere Vegetarian
    Am I!

    I'm comin' home, I'm comin'
    I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

    Home, I'm comin' home
    Comin' home from across the sea
    Home, I'm comin' home

    No purple heart do I wear on my chest

    Has been waitin' patiently
    She said she didn't mind
    'Cause I was helping to keep our land free

    I am a soldier, a comin' home soldier
    No purple heart do I wear on my chest
    I'm just a soldier, a comin' home soldier
    I know that I, I've done my best

    I'm comin' home, I'm comin'
    I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

    The Vegetable Song (The Barnyard Dance)
    Composer(s): Carl Martin
    Performer(s): Steve Goodman



    It was late one nite by the pale moonlight
    all the vegetables gave a spree
    they put out a sign that said the dancing's at nine
    and all the admission was free
    there was peas and greens and cabbage and beans
    it was the biggest crowd you ever did see
    and when mister cucumber struck up that number
    you should have heard those vegetables screams
    Oh little turnip top was doin' the backwards flop
    the cabbage is doin' the shimmy, she couldn't stop
    the little red beet shook its feet
    and the watermelon died of the cockeyed heat
    little tomato, agitator, shook the shimmy with the sweet potato
    and old man garlic dropped dead of the colic
    down at the barnyard dance
    late this morning
    down at the barnyard dance

    Oh little turnip top was doin' the backwards flop
    the cabbage is doin' the shimmy, she couldn't stop
    the little red beet shook its feet
    and the watermelon died of the cockeyed heat

    Little tomato, agitator, shook the shimmy with the sweet potato
    and old man garlic dropped dead of the colic
    down at the barnyard dance
    late this morning
    down at the barnyard...
    late this morning
    down at the barnyard dance

    Rock 'N' Roll Suicide
    Composer(s): David Bowie
    Performer(s): David Bowie;
    and various other artists



    Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
    You pull on your finger then another finger, then your cigarette
    The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
    Ohhh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide

    You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
    And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
    You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
    Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suciide

    Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
    But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
    Don't let the sun blast your shadow
    Don't let the milk float ride your mind
    They're so natural - religiously unkind

    Oh no love! you're not alone
    You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
    You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care
    Oh no love! you're not alone
    No matter what or who you've been
    No matter when or where you've seen
    All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
    I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
    You're not alone

    Just turn on with me and you're not alone
    Let's turn on with me and you're not alone
    Let's turn on and be not alone
    Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
    Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
    Oh gimme your hands

    The Vegetable Song
    Composer(s): Bob Mitchell



    Ladies and gentleman
    as far as I know there’s never been a love song written for those courageous hard working tillers of the soil that feed our Nation
    To those down to earth beings this song is dedicated

    I’ve a got a garden in my heart
    That Mushrooms with love
    Whenever you Turnip

    So nothing maters to me
    If it’s Okra with you
    Lettuce never Squash our love

    And how I Radish
    The thought of Beans with you
    And how my Artichoke skips a beet

    Nothing maters to me
    If it’s Okra with you
    Lettuce never Squash our love

    It’s just an old fashioned Vegetable Song folks comin’ down in two beet harmony

    It takes Parsley you and Parsley me
    To make Asparagus
    So if Cucumber to me my Melon Collard baby
    I’ll Carrot your heart

    And how I’ll Radish
    The thought of beans with you
    And how my Artichoke skips a beet

    Nothing Maters to me
    If it’s Okra with you
    Lettuce never Squash our love
    Lettuce never Squash our love

    Comin' Back To Me
    Composer(s): Marty Balin
    First release by: Jefferson Airplane



    The summer had inhaled
    And held its breath too long
    The winter looked the same
    As if it had never gone
    And through an open window
    Where no curtain hung
    I saw you, I saw you
    Coming back to me

    One begins to read between
    The pages of a look
    The sound of sleepy music
    And suddenly, you're hooked
    I saw you, I saw you
    Coming back to me

    You came to stay and live my way
    Scatter my love like leaves in the wind
    You always say that you won't go away
    But I know what it always has been
    It always has been

    A transparent dream
    Beneath an occasional sigh...
    Most of the time
    I just let it go by
    Now I wish it hadn't begun
    I saw you, I saw you
    Coming back to me

    Strolling the hill
    Overlooking the shore
    I realize I've been here before
    The shadow in the mist
    Could have been anyone
    I saw you, I saw you
    Coming back to me

    Small things like reasons
    Are put in a jar
    Whatever happened to wishes
    Wished on a star?
    Was it just something
    That I made up for fun?
    I saw you, I saw you
    Coming back to me
