Once Upon A Dream (Mary Costa & Bill Shirley)
Once Upon A Dream
Composer(s): Pyotr Ilych Tchaikovsky - Sammy Fain - Jack Lawrence
First performance by: Mary Costa & Bill Shirley
Covered by multiple other artists
[Princess Aurora]
I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you
The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
Yet I know its true
That visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you
I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
The way you did once
Upon a dream
But if I know you
I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
[Princess Aurora and Prince]
The way you did once
[Prince]
Upon a dream
[Prince]
I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you
The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
And I know its true
That visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you
I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
The way I did once
Upon a dream

Carnival In Kenora
Carnival In Kenora
Performer(s): Joni Mitchell
Twinkle, twinkle, what a pity
Alone alone on such a pretty night
With enchantment on your side
Popcorn, popcorn, cotton candy
Soft voice whispered, "This all can be right
If you come and share a ride"
Carnival in Kenora
I let him take me for a ride
On a giant Ferris wheel
Up in the neon sky
Or far from the barker's cry
One kiss can sometimes make you feel
Like a spinning Ferris wheel
All the tents are taken down now
All that's left is scuffled ground now
Still the magic echoes in the sand
Popcorn, popcorn, cotton candy
Now a stranger takes my hand; we smile
And the magic understands
Carnival in Kenora
I let him take me for a ride
On a giant Ferris wheel
Up in the neon sky
Or far from the barker's cry
One kiss can sometimes make you feel
Like a spinning Ferris wheel

Love my girl
She lookin' good, lookin' real good
Love ya, c'mon

The Day That Curly Billy Shot Down Crazy Sam McGee
The Day That Curly Billy Shot Down Crazy Sam McGee
Composer(s): Allan Clarke
Performer(s): The Hollies
Big tall man standing in the street
Gun hanging by his side
Just one man that he'd like to meet
That's when I began to hide
I recognised him from the face of his son
The hate in his eye didn't lie
Oh what I did can't be undone
Borrowed time there's none to buy
Well I hid round the back of a derelict shack
Ain't looking for a mad showdown
But he was smart, he'd already checked
A week in advance I'd paid down
Well the hotel clerk was a fun-loving man
The job he had it didn't pay
He told all about what happened that night
There he is, that's the one's all he'd say
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down
Big tall man standing in the street
Now a hand hovering waiting to slide
Drew out his gun it wasn't for fun
Let me in there's nowhere to hide
Well I made my play but it wasn't my day
I felt the ripping lead
That's when I knew my time was through
Rest in peace were the last words he said
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down

Five Short Minutes
Five Short Minutes
Composer(s): Jim Croce
Performer(s): Jim Croce; The Ventures
Well, she was standing by my dressing room
after the show
Asking for my autograph and asked if she could go
Back to my motel room. But the rest is just a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Well, like a fool in a hurry I took her to my room
She casted me in plaster while I sang her a tune
Then I said, "Ooh, ooee!" Sure was a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Well, then a judge and a jury sat me in a room
They say that robbin' the cradle is worse than robbin' the tomb
Then I said "Ooh, ooee!" Sure was a tragic tale
(Wasn't worth it, wasn't worth it!)
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
And when I get out of this prison gonna be forty-five
I'll know I used to like to do it but I won't remember why
(Wasn't worth it, wasn't worth it!)
I'll say "Ooh, ooee! Sure was a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail

Day Of Jubilo
Day Of Jubilo
Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson
Performer(s): Guy Mitchell
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Oh the Devil, he makes it thunder
Every time he hollers loud
The sun draws up the water
And it rains right through the clouds
The eagle’s wings, they fly so high
They cause the wind to blow
Now the only thing that bogs my mind
I wonder what makes it snow
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Oh, the sun sits up above me
The Heavens are all aglow
The Devil, he don’t love me
Got a place that we all know
The closer to the sun you climb
The hotter it’s gonna grow
Now the only thing that bogs my mind
How did it get hot below
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
I got my share of troubles
Trouble runnin’ everywhere
Blowin’ up like a bubble
Gonna bust itself a fare
Now I’ve got troubles of every kind
Brother that ain’t the half
The only thing that bogs my mind
I wonder what makes me laugh
(Tell it to the preacher, and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Till the day... of... Ju...bi...lo

Five Salted Peanuts
Five Salted Peanuts
Composer(s): Charlie Abbott
Performer(s): Tony Pastor
I put a penny in the slot
And all I ever got
Was five salted peanuts
I put all my money in
But I don't ever win

Those darn machines know how to count
I always get the same amount
I put a penny in the slot
And all I ever got
Was five salted peanuts

En zo blijve ‘k ik in Gent, en is mijn vrèwe ook content

Carnevale
Carnevale
Composer(s): M. Luberti - Riccardo Cocciante
Riccardo Cocciante
Un sorriso di più
O una lacrima in più
Mentre il tempo vola
Prima il bene e poi il male
Poi lo zucchero e il sale
Seccano la gola
Carnevale
E comincia cosi la mia recita
Salto fuori di questa mia scatola
E la mia faccia ride già
Carnevale
Basterà che io suoni un'armonica
Per riempire ogni cosa di musica
E tutto quando passerà
Oggi è festa se vuoi per consolarci
E festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realtà
Un giorno di più
E anche un giorno di meno
Perché il tempo vola
Il silenzio fa male
Ma anche troppe parole
Seccano la gola
Carnevale
Se la vita mi sembra un po' stupida
Tolgo un asso da questa mia manica
E tutto quanto cambierà
Carnevale
Se ogni giorno mi sembra più inutile
Ballo fino a stancarmi anche l'anima
Che poi domani si vedrà
Oggi è festa se vuoi per consolarci
È festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realtà
Carnevale
Per ognuno di noi c'è una maschera
Se nasconde un sorriso o una lacrima
Io non lo dico ma lo so

Five O'Clock World
Five O'Clock World
Composer(s): Allen Reynolds
Performer(s): The Vogues;
and various other artists
Up every mornin' just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain (yeah, yeah)
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
(Scat: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc ...)
Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
I've been goin' tryin' to make my way
While I live for the end of the day (yeah, yeah)
Cuz it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
There's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
(Scat: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc ...)
In the shelter of her arms everything's OK
When she talks then the world goes slippin' away
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other reason is gone, (yeah, yeah)
In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothing else matters at all
Cuz every time my baby smiles at me
I know that's it's all worthwhile, yeah

Carne De Cañón
Carne De Cañón
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Me confiesas tus dudas
me dices que no sabes de qué va el Invento
que esta broma pesada
es obra más de la Locura que del Genio
porque, cómo se explica
estar aquí matando poco a poco el tiempo
mientras él va matando
al mismo tiempo y poco a poco nuestros sueños
Y así es
ya lo ves
nada está al derecho todo está al revés
la pasión
la razón
al final son sólo carne de cañón
Carne de cañón...
Me hablas del ser humano
de Mr. Hyde y Dr. Jekyll cuerpo a cuerpo
dando paso a la ciencia
capaz de separar lo malo de lo bueno
casi como los dioses
que en él se miran como si fuera un espejo...
pero a veces los mata
y acaba convirtiendo el ciclo en un infierno
Y así es...
Dices que el semejante
es como otra manera de ser uno mismo
que lo que nos separa
es algo tan endeble como lo distinto
tan sutil diferencia
no es causa para que yo sea tu asesino
Qué maldito pecado
merece la condena de tanto castigo
Y así es...

Five O'Clock Whistle
Five O'Clock Whistle
Composer(s): Kim Gannon; Gene Irwin; Josef Myrow
Performer(s): Glenn Miller
The five o'clock whistle's on the blink
The whistle won't blow and whadd'ya think?
My pop is still in the factory 'cause he don't know
What time it happens to be
The five o'clock whistle didn't blow
The whistle is broke and whadda'ya know?
If somebody don't find out what's wrong
Oh, my pop'll be workin' all night long
Oh! Who's gonna fix the whistle?
Won't somebody fix the whistle?
Oh! Who's gonna fix the whistle?
So my poor old pop will know
It's time for him to stop
Ya ought to hear what my mommy said
When papa came home and sneaked into bed
And told her he worked till half past two
'Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew

The Day I Met Marie
The Day I Met Marie
Composer(s): Hank Marvin
Performer(s): Cliff Richard
Imaging a still summer's day
When nothing is moving
Least Of All Me
I lay on my back in the hay
The warm sun was soothing.
It made me feel good
The day I met Marie
The Sound of her whisper hello
Came tiptoing softly into my head
I opened my eyes kinda slow
And there she was smiling
It made me feel good
The day I met Marie
With the laughing eyes
She'd toss her hair and tantalize
She came to touch me then she's gone
Just like a summer breeze
I remember her kiss
So soft on my brow
And the way that she said
Baby go to sleep now
Baby go to sleep now
I woke with the chill in the air
The warm sun no longer hung in the sky
I reached out but she was not there
She'd gone where she came from
But I still feel good
To think i've known Marie
With the laughing eyes
She'd toss her hair and tantalize
She came to touch me then she's gone
Just like a summer breeze

Carnations On The Roof
Carnations On The Roof
Composer(s): Pete Atkin - Clive James
Performer(s): Pete Atkin
He worked setting tools for a multi-purpose punch
In a shop that made holes in steel plates
He could hear himself think through a fifty minute lunch
Of the kids, gas and stoppages, the upkeep and the rates
While he talked about Everton and Chelsea with his mates
With gauge and micrometer, with level and with rule
While chuck and punch were pulsing like a drum
He checked the finished product like a master after school
The slugs looked like money and the cutting-oil like scum
And to talk with a machinist he made signals like the dumb
Though he had no great gifts of personality or mind
He was generally respected, and the proof
Was a line of hired Humbers tagging quietly behind
A fat Austin Princess with carnations on the roof
Forty years of metal tend to get into your skin
The surest coin you take home from your wage
The green cleaning-jelly only goes to rub it in
And that glitter in the wrinkle of your knuckle shows your age
Began when the dignity of work was still the rage
He was used and discarded in a game he didn't own
But when the moment of destruction came
He showed that a working man is more than flesh and bone
The hands on his chest flared more brightly than his name
For a technicolor second as he rolled into the flame
Though he had no great gifts of personality or mind
He was generally respected, and the proof
Was a line of hired Humbers tagging quietly behind
A fat Austin Princess with carnations on the roof

Five More Miles To Folsom
Five More Miles To Folsom
Performer(s): Lee Hazlewood
Five more miles to Folsom
This train can't move too slow
Ninety-nine years at Folsom
Then they'll let me go
Shot a man in Dallas
He made a fool of me
Thought they never catched me
How wrong can one guy be
Five more miles to Folsom
This train can' t move too slow
Ninety-nine years at Folsom
Then they'll let me go
Let my love at the station
Cryin' in the rain
Broke her heart at the station
'Cause I couldn't explain
Five more miles to Folsom
This train can' t move too slow
Ninety-nine years at Folsom
Then they'll let me go
Sit and stare out my window
At someone else's moon
And ask why was I born
Ninety-nine years too soon
