Thou Swell Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart First performance/First release by: William Gaxton & Costance Carpenter - 1927/Broadway Nitelites - 1928 Covered by multiple other artists
Thou swell, thou witty, thou sweet, thou grand Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand? Both thine eyes are cute too, what they do to me Hear me holler, I choose a sweet lollapaloosa in thee
I'd feel so rich in a hut for two Two rooms and kitchen I'm sure would do Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand
I lost my own true love today She packed her bags and went away She ran to another guy So, cry
Here come them tear drops They're falling from my eyes So, cry (Cry, cry) Come on, now (Cry, cry, cry) But there's nothing else to do (Everybody cry)
It happens to every heart Somebody tears it all apart One day you gotta say goodbye So, cry
Someone else is tasting Lips that once were mine So (Cry, cry, cry) Come on, now (Cry, cry, cry) I'm feeling sad and blue (Everybody cry, cry)
(One, two, three, four, five) Tears are falling from my eyes (Six, seven, eight, nine, ten) How I'll miss my lady friend
One day my crying will end And I'll fall in love again But till that day arrives I gotta cry
If you cry too Then maybe I won't feel so blue So, cry (Cry, cry) Everybody (Cry, cry, cry)
I want some pity from you (Everbody cry, cry, cry) Everbody cry now Come on and cry now Don't you know you gotta cry (That you gotta cry) Oh-ooh Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Thou Shalt Not Steal Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk Performer(s): Dick & Dee Dee; John D. Loudermilk; The Newbeats
Thou shalt not steal Thou shalt not steal That's what the Good Book says Ya, ya, ya, ya Thou shalt not steal Thou shalt not steal But somebody is a stealing You away from me
I wonder if he really don't know That he'll reap exactly what he sows If he don't he'll find out someday When somebody steals you from him
He'll be crying that thou shalt not steal Thou shalt not steal That's what the Good Book says Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down I think you only live to see the lights of town I wasted all my time when I would try, try, try When the lights have lost their glow you're gonna cry, cry, cry
I lie awake at night and wait 'til you come in You stay a little while and then you're gone again Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own You're gonna cry, cry, cry
Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone You call to me but I'm gonna tell you: "Bye, bye, bye" When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry
When your fickle heart gets old, no one will care for you You'll come back to me for a little love that's true I'll tell you "no" and you're gonna ask me why, why, why? When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry
You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own you're gonna cry, cry, cry
You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want me then it'll hurt when you think of th
Those Were The Days Composer(s): Ginger Baker - Mike Taylor Performer(s): Cream
When the city of Atlantis stood serene above the sea Long time before our time when the world was free Those were the days Golden cymbals flying on ocarina sounds Before wild Medusa's serpents gave birth to hell Disguised as heaven Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now? They're gone Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days Tie your painted shoes and dance, blue daylight in your hair Overhead a noiseless eagle fans a flame Wonder everywhere Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now? They're gone Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days
Cry Cry Cry Composer(s): Deadric Malone Performer(s): Bobby "Blue" Bland and multiple other artists
Cry, cry, cry, cry That's what I want you to do Then think about the lonely nights I sat alone and cried for you Cry, cry, cry years
You said you didn't want me to go it's hard to say goodbye But I won't believe a word you say until you hang your head and cry, cry, cry, cry, cry Let your tears fall like rain and then I'll know my love for you wasn't in vain
Come on and cry me an ocean then I want you to cry me a sea Somebody's hurt you, just like you hurt me cry me a river, cry me a sea

C'est commod' d'épater Quand on est argenté Et que, surtout on n'a pas à compter Je cherche un millionnaire Qui chez moi pourrait sans retard Placer ses dollars! Ah! Je cherche un millionnaire Qui viendrait à passer sur l'boul'vard!

Quand ton horoscope Est dans le rouge Quand t'as pas envie De te lever, Quand mes rêves galopent Que rien ne bouge Quand tu m'dis: "J'vais pas y arriver..."
Il faut s'aimer plus fort Pour conjurer le sort Pour échapper à la mélancolie Il faut s'aimer plus fort Et se dire corps à corps Qu'on peut changer D'un seul coup toute sa vie
Nananana Nana Nananana Nana Nanana Nananananana
Je suis accrochée A ma planète Toi, tu m'dis souvent "Faut pas rêver!" Qu'on est des poupées Des marionnettes Et qu'on ne change pas Sa destinée...
Il faut s'aimer plus fort Pour conjurer le sort Pour échapper à la morosité Il faut s'aimer plus fort Et rêver corps à corps Au bonheur fou Qui va nous arriver...
Y a toujours un soir Une seconde Où la chance s'arrête Juste à tes pieds Mais tous les pouvoirs Tout l'or du monde Ne valent pas un seul De tes baisers
Il faut s'aimer plus fort Pour conjurer le sort Pour échapper à la mélancolie Il faut s'aimer plus fort Et se dire corps à corps Qu'on peut changer D'un seul coup toute sa vie

If your sweetheart sends a letter of goodbye It's no secret you'll feel better if you cry When waking from a bad dream Don't you sometimes think it's real? But it's only false emotions that you feel
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long And your blues keep getting bluer with each song Remember sunshine can be found behind a cloudy sky So let your hair down and go on and cry
Je Cherche Toujours Demain Composer(s): J. Barnell; B. Liamis; C. François; G. Sinoué Performer(s): Claude François
C'était un amour banal Comme il en est des milliers Un voyage dans les étoiles Oui, quelques rêves échangés Comme les mots d'une page Que l'on efface d'un seul trait J'étais sûr de t'oublier Sans un regret
{Refrain:} Et pourtant Je cherche toujours demain Je ne trouve qu'aujourd'hui Je cherche d'autres chemins Je ne trouve pas l'oubli Et sur tous les visages Au bout de tous mes voyages Partout je vois ton image Tout te ressemble
Je m'accroche à tous les trains Qui s'en vont vers l'avenir Toutes les pendules du monde Marquent l'heure du souvenir Et comme un radeau sur la mer Je me laisse dériver Pour mieux m'éloigner de toi Et du passé {au Refrain}
Et pourtant Je cherche toujours demain Je ne trouve qu'aujourd'hui J'ai beau m'en aller plus loin Je ne trouve qu'aujourd'hui Désormais ce soir je sais Rien ne pourra plus changer Notre amour sera gravé Dans ma mémoire

Als je horoskoop je in de steek laat En je hebt geen zin om op te staan Je hebt het gevoel dat alles fout gaat En in je hoofd daar rommelt een vulkaan...

Ooit zal het gebeuren op een ochtend Je voelt de tinteling al in je bloed Dit wordt mijn dag, vandaag word ik verwend 't Geluk komt je van ver al tegemoet...
Dit is vast weer zo'n dag Waarop je alles mag Niets gaat er mis Met alles wat je doet... Dit is vast weer zo'n dag En als bij toverslag Sta je dan op Want alles gaat dan goed...
Als je mij dus ooit eens wilt verleiden Kies dan de juiste dag uit van de week Ja dat is het beste voor ons beiden Een andere dag die brengt me vast van streek...
Dit is vast weer zo'n dag Waarop je alles mag Niets gaat er mis Met alles wat je doet... Dit is vast weer zo'n dag En als bij toverslag Sta je dan op Want alles gaat dan goed...

sei proprio giusta ma se ci penso giusta non sei Ma stavolta sento che - finira - tra di noi perche forse, un altro mondo, ci sara E allora guarda... guarda lui che sia uguale a me altrimenti... potresti rimpiangermi un po' E allora guarda... guarda lui che sia uguale a me altrimenti... potresti rimpiangermi un po'
Je Cherche Mon Amour Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Prenez ma main guidez-moi sur la terre Aveuglement, j'irai où vous irez Portez mon coeur avide de lumière Où le soleil rejoint l'éternité Comme un pêcheur dont les filets sont vides Désespéré à la tombée du jour Cherche en son coeur un espoir qui le guide Moi dans vos yeux je cherche mon amour
Mon amour Mon amour
Menez ma vie sur la route éternelle Où les amants sont baignés de clarté Mon âme en vain espère une étincelle Pour entrevoir le fond de vos pensées Comme un berger par une nuit glaciale Désorienté à l'heure du retour Fouille le ciel pour chercher une étoile Moi dans vos yeux je cherche mon amour

Viene dal cielo Va! La sua, meschinità! Sgualdrina! Prima dolce E poi, assassina! La sua tattica E i suoi artigli, conosco, già! Ma, perché La sgualdrina, doveva, toccare a me? Come, può La sgualdrina assediarmi anche se non vorrò Chiudo porte e finestre Giuro! Non le aprirò! Sgualdrina! Sarai la mia rovina Abituarmi a te, questo proprio no! Uh!!!
Che farò, la sgualdrina mi rapina tutto il meglio che ho Che dirò Sarò forte, abbastanza Da gridarle, va' via! Dovrò scegliere in fretta Fra sgualdrina, o follia! Ma perché La sgualdrina, doveva Toccare a me! Come può La sgualdrina assediarmi Anche se non vorrò! Chiudo porte e finestre Giuro! Non le aprirò! Guardami! Sei ancora in tempo e allora Salvati! Non ho più braccia per Difendermi! Vorrei tornare, alla mia Anima! Sempre Sempre Sempre Sempre, più! Non puoi nascondermi la luna Dietro i tuoi occhi da sgualdrina! Morirò morirò! Se lo vuoi, sparirò! Sgualdrina! È nata una sgualdrina Fra le pareti azzurre di casa mia È la tua fine! Sgualdrina! Rapina e repentina sgualdrina e non ridi più E' il tuo girotondo Ultimo! Giro, giro, tondo, la sgualdrina è il meno del mondo!
