Ibiza Bar


Ibiza Bar
Composer(s): Roger Waters; David Gilmour; Richard Wright; Nick Mason
First release by: Pink Floyd - 1969
I'm so afraid of mistakes that I made
Taking every time that I wake
I feel like a hard-boiled butter man
So give me a time when the countries will lie
on the storyline if kind
Our days are made since the first page
I've lived every line that you wrote
Take me down, take me down,
from the shelf above your head
So give me a time when the countries will lie
on the storyline if kind
And if I live on the shelf like the rest
And if love bleeds like a sad song
Please pick-up your camera and use me again
So give me a time when the countries will lie on the storyline if kind
Yea
It's alright now darlin'

Kiss Me Deadly


Kiss Me Deadly
Composer(s): Billy Idol; Tony James
Performer(s): Generation X;
Billy Idol; Mutant Monster Beach Party
The Greyhound's rocking out tonight
To maximum rockabilly
When two punks chose to risk the subway
For a tube to Picadilly
The Zephrys stir fast gangs for glory
Another dumb casualty
Having fun
In South West six
Hidden flick knife flicks
Kiss me deadly, tonight
Another battle was won and lost
Down The Bishops End last night
Spotlights pick the kids in triumph
With a thousand scarves in flight, see how they run
Spring from the terraces in black and white
Young and old into the fight
Having fun
In South West Six
With violence for a fix
Kiss me deadly, tonight
Seven o'clock they stand in rank
For the thirty bus uptown
And later in a downstairs room
She pulls her lover down
In ecstacy but they can't make a sound
Case her mother might come down
Having fun
In South West Six
Discovers teenage sex
Kiss me deadly, tonight
(Instrumental Break)
The Snooker Hall is empty
Cause they're all out playing pool
Hustling down the Fulham Road
Doing deals with Mr.Cool
Well They're on the waterfront now instead of being at school
Too old now, even to dig pinball
Having fun
In South West Six
Having fun
When a hidden flick knife flicks
With violence for a fix
Discovers teenage sex
Tried shooting up for kicks
Kiss me deadly
Kiss me deadly
Kiss me deadly
Kiss me
Kiss me tonight

Two Divided By Love


Two Divided By Love
Composer(s): Brian Potter - Dennis Lambert
Performer(s): The Ventures; The Grass Roots
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another
Every night your tears come down
And I know how you're feelin' inside
Loneliness is no one's friend
I've been takin' the same kind of ride
And that just shouldn't be
If you're still lovin' me
Come on baby
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another
I'd by lyin' to myself
If I said I was gettin' along
All I do is think of you and I know
That it's here you belong
Come on girl make your way
We can start from today
Puttin' it back together 'cause
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another
Take away the rain from a flower
And the flower just can't grow
Take away you from me girl
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only be broken hearted
Two divided and blue
Should take what they had
And go back to where they started
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another

Iba Yo Para Una Fiesta


Iba Yo Para Una Fiesta
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Victor Jara
Iba yo para una fiesta
cuando me paso esta mano
procuro sacar temprano
el boleto es lo que cuenta.
El ruletero protesta
cuando el boleto me dio
diciendome de que yo
me lo pase de inocente
porque en el medio e’ la gente
una niña se aflojo
La niña muy asusta’
hallo a quien echarle culpa
y hallo muy buena disculpa
dandome a mi una mirada
se puso muy colorada
cuando yo le dije asi
señorita por aqui
que sera lo que ha pasado
algo se le ha refalado
del atracon que le di
La niña puso querella
y a justicia me llevo
ella dice que fui yo
y yo digo que fue ella
para una niña tan bella
claro que eso era una ofensa
el publico bien lo piensa
y el fiscal me pregunto
entonces le dije yo
ella fue la sinverguenza
Un hermano que tenia
se dio por muy ofendido
y como era merecido
me mando la policia
despues a mi me decia
porque te culpan a ti?
dicen señor que yo fui
por eso me traen preso
ella fue la del suceso
y me echa la culpa a mi
Al fin la niña despues
vino y me dio un reempujon
y yo con justa razon
otro empujon le pege
ahi se vino otra vez
me pego una de patadas
le aporre’ una bofetada
y se armo una pelotera
dijo el juez
todos pa’ fuera
a aflojarse por alla

We choose it, win or lose it
Love is never quite the same

Don't feel bad, you're not to blame
So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry
All the tears in the world won't change your mind
There's someone new and she's waiting for you
Soon your heart will be leaving me behind
Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile
Like a friend who just happened to call
For the last time pretend your are mine
My darling, kiss me goodbye
I know now I must go now
Though my heart wants me to stay
That girl is your tomorrow
I belong to yesterday
So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry
All the tears in the world won't change your mind
There's someone new and she's waiting for you
Soon your heart will be leaving me behind
Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile
Like a friend who just happened to call
For the last time pretend your are mine
My darling, kiss me goodbye
My darling, kiss me goodbye

Two Brothers


Two Brothers
Composer(s): Irving Gordon
Performer(s): Kay Starr
and multiple other artists
Two brothers on their way
Two brothers on their way
Two brothers on their way
One wore blue, and one wore grey
One wore blue and one wore grey
As they marched along the way
A fife and drum began to play
All on a beautiful morning
One was gentle, one was kind
One was gentle, one was kind
One came home, one stayed behind
A cannonball don't pay no mind
A cannonball don't pay no mind
Though you're gentle or you're kind
It don't think of the folks behind
All on a beautiful morning
Two girls waiting by the railroad track
Two girls waiting by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
One wore blue, and one wore black
One wore blue, and one wore black
Waiting by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
All on a beautiful morning
One wore blue, and one wore black
Waiting by the railroad track
For their darlings to come back
All on a beautiful morning
All on a beautiful morning

I.O.U.


I.O.U.
Composer(s): Jimmy Dean; Larry Markes
Performer(s): Jimmy Dean
Many people look through their wallet or their pocket books and, way down at the bottom
past the credit cards and baby pictures and so on
you usually find a little 'ol piece of dog-eared poetry
I was cleaning out my wallet the other day and ran across a whole bunch of I.O.U's, some of 'em thirty-five years overdue
And you know the funny thing, all these I.O.U's are owed to one person
and I kinda felt like that maybe now would be a pretty good time for an accountin'
Mom, I sure hope you're listenin'
Sweet lady, I.O.U. for so many things.....
A lot of services, like nightwatchman for instance.....
Lyin' awake nights, listenin' for coughs and cries and creakin'
floorboards.....hah-hah, and me comin' in too late
Boy, you had the eye of an eagle and the roar of a lion
But you always had a heart as big as a house
I.O.U. for services like, uh, short order cook, chef, baker.....
For makin' sirloin out o' hamburger an' turkey out o' tuna fish
And big ol' strappin' boys out of leftovers
I.O.U. for cleanin' services
The daily scrubbing of face and ears....all work done by hand
And for the frequent dustin' of a small boy's pants
To try to make sure that you led a spotless life
And for washin' and ironin' that no laundry could ever do
Foy dryin' the tears of childhood
And ironin' out the problems of growin' up
I.O.U. for services as a bodyguard
For protectin' me from the terrors of thunderstorms and nightmares
Hah, And too many green apples
And Lord knows, I.O.U. for medical attention
For nursing me through measles, mumps, bruises
Bumps, splinters and spring fever
Oh-oh, let's not forget medical advice....important things like
"If you keep on scratching that, it'll never get well" or
"If you cross your eyes, they're gonna stick like that"
And probably the most important advice of all
"Boy, you be sure you got on clean underwear, in case you're in an accident"
And I.O.U. for veterinarian services
For feeding every lost dog that I dragged home at the end of the rope
And for healing the pains of puppy love
And I.O.U. for entertainment.....
Entertainment that kept the household goin' through some pretty rough times.....
And for wonderful productions at Christmas, the Fourth of July, Birthdays.....
And for making make-believe come true.....
And you did it all on such a limited budget
I.O.U. for construction work, for building kites and confidence, hopes and dreams an'.....
Somehow you made them all touch the sky.....
And for cementin' together a family
So it would stand the worst kind of shocks and blows.....
And for layin' down a good strong foundation to build a life on
I.O.U. for carrier charges.....
For carryin' me on your books for the necessities of life
That a growin' boy somehow, well, they just gotta have
Things like, hah-hah, a pair of high top boots
With a little pocket on the side for a jack-knife
And one thing, Mom, I'll never forget....
When there were two pieces of pie and three hungry people.....
You were always the one who decided, well, I'm not really that hungry anyhow
These are just a few of the things for which payment is long overdue..
The person that I owe 'em to worked very, very cheap....
She managed by simply doin' without a whole lot o' things that she needed herself....
My I.O.U's add up to more than I could ever hope to repay
But you know the nicest thing about it all....
That I know, that she had marked the entire bill 'Paid In Full'
For just one kiss and four little words....Mom, I Love You!

Kiss Me Goodnight, Sergeant-Major
Composer(s): Art Noell; Don Pelosi
Performer(s): Arthur Askey;
Alan Breeze; Vera Lynn; George Formby;
Len Luscombe; Elsie Carlisle; Chas & Dave
Private Jones came in one night
Full of cheer and very bright
He'd been out all day upon the spree
He bumped into Sergeant Smeck
Put his arms around his neck
And in his ear he whispered tenderly.....
Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
Tuck me in my little wooden bed
We all love you, Sergeant-Major
When we hear you bawling, "Show a leg!"
Don't forget to wake me in the morning
And bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea
Kiss me goodnight Sergeant-Major
Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me
Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
Tuck me in my little wooden bed
We all love you, Sergeant-Major
Even when your neck grows rather red
Don't forget to wake me in the morning
And bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea
Kiss me goodnight, Sergeant-Major
Sergeant-Major, be a mother to me

Twixt Twelve And Twenty


Twixt Twelve And Twenty
Composer(s): Aaron Schroeder - Wally Gold
Performer(s): Pat Boone; Vincent Lopez
They say the years twixt twelve and twenty
Are the years of confusion and doubt
We all have fears twixt twelve and twenty
But through love we'll learn what life is all about
Are we old enough to feel such deep devotion?
Don't they know love is ageless when it's true?
There'll be no tears twixt twelve and twenty
If you just have faith and trust in my love for you
There'll be no tears twixt twelve and twenty
If you just have faith and trust in my love for you

I.G.Y.
Composer(s): Donald Jay Fagen
First release by: Donald Fagen - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists
Standing tough under stars and stripes
We can tell
This dream's in sight
You've got to admit it
At this point in time that it's clear
The future looks bright
On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
Well by seventy-six we'll be A.O.K
What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free
Get your ticket to that wheel in Space
While there's time
The fix is in
You'll be a witness to that game of chance in the sky
You know we've got to win
Here at home we'll play in the city
Powered by the sun
Perfect weather for a streamlined world
There'll be spandex jackets one for everyone
What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free
On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
(More leisure for artists everywhere)
A just machine no make big decisions
Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision
We'll be clean when their work is done
We'll be eternally free and eternally young
What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free

Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
Performer(s): Dire Straits
We're going on a holiday now
Gonna take a villa, a small chalet
On the Costa del Magnifico
Where the cost of living is so low
Yeah, we're gonna be so neat
Dance to the Eurobeat
Yeah, we're gonna be so cool
Twisting by the pool
Sitting in a small cafe now
Swing, swing, swingin to the cabaret
You wanna see a movie, take in a show now
Meet new people at the disco
Yeah, we're gonna be so neat
Dance to the Eurobeat
Yeah, we're gonna be so cool
Twisting by the pool
And we can still get information
Reading all about inflation
And you're never gonna be out of reach
There's a call-box on the beach
Mmm, you're gonna look so cute
Sunglasses and bathing suites
Be the baby of my dreams
Like the ladies in the magazine
Yeah, we're gonna be so neat
Dance to the Eurobeat
Yeah, we're gonna be so cool
Twisting by the pool
I'm a twisting fool
Just twisting, yeah twisting
Twisting by the pool

Venus, My Shining Love


Venus, My Shining Love
Composer(s): George M. Cohan
Performer(s): Harry Leighton
Most ev'ryone has a sweetheart
With beautiful eyes that shine
I'm not acquainted with your love
But you're well acquainted with mine
Excelling all other ladles
Fairer than any by far
You must admit that the brightest of all
Is Venus, my shining star
Venus, beautiful Venus, how bright you shine
None shall e'er come between us, sweet Venus mine
None as bright as my darling so far up above
Venus, my beautiful Venus, my shining love
Some say true love ne'er runs smoothly
But with them I disagree
Not a cross word has been uttered
'Twixt Venus, my loved one, and me
Leading my star to the altar
Was my most beautiful dream
When I compare her with Saturn or Mars
Like darkness to her they seem
Venus, beautiful Venus, how bright you shine
None shall e'er come between us, sweet Venus mine
None as bright as my darling so far up above
Venus, my beautiful Venus, my shining love

Kiss me quick, while we still have this feeling
Hold me close and never let me go
'Cause tomorrows can be so uncertain
Love can fly and leave just hurting
Kiss me quick because I love you so
Kiss me quick and make my heart go crazy
Sigh that sigh and whisper oh so low
Tell me that tonight will last forever
Say that you will leave me never
Kiss me quick because I love you so
Let the band keep playing while we are swaying
Let's keep on praying that we'll never stop
Kiss me quick just can't stand this waiting
'Cause your lips are lips I long to know
Oh that kiss will open heaven's door
And we'll stay there forevermore
Kiss me quick because I love you so

I've been alive forever, and I wrote the very first song

I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs
My home lies deep within you
And I've got my own place in your soul
Now, when I look out through your eyes
I'm young again, even though I'm very old
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs
Oh my music makes you dance
And gives you spirit to take a chance
And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move
Music fills your heart
Well, that's a real fine place to start
It's from me it's for you
It's from you, it's for me
It's a worldwide symphony
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things

Kiss Me Sweet
Performer(s): Butterbeans & Susie
Instrumental Intro
I was so blue, and lonely too
You went away, I longed you'd stay
To hold you, dear, and
Press your lovin' lips to mine
I thought I'd die
I don't know why
But seems to me
In certainty
That waitin' for you
Mama, was a waste of time
Lordy, just sing that thing
I'm gonna kiss you sweet
And fill you with sensation
Honey, kiss me swett
I need some inspiration
Now put your arms around me
Look me straight in my eye
Lordy, if this gonna kill me
Lay a sweet body down
Kiss me now
I can't wait no longer
Need some arms
My love is growin' stronger
You goin' on
I've known you for years
I can feel the caring here
Without shiftin' a gear
My love ain't complete
Honey, till you kiss me sweet
-Instrumental Break-
Kiss me now
I can't wait no longer
Seems somehow
My love is growin' stronger
With your arms up around me tight
Mama, lookin' in your eyes so bright
My love ain't complete
Honey, till you kiss me sweet
