Rabbit

Rabbit
Composer(s): Chas Hodges; Dave Peacock
Performer(s): Chas & Dave



Rabbit, rabbit .....
Rabbit, rabbit .....

You got a beatiful chin
You got beautiful skin
You got a beautiful face
You got taste

You got beautiful eyes
You got beautiful thighs
You got a lot, without a doubt
But I'm thinkin' bout blowin you out

Cos, you won't stop talking
Why don't you give it a rest?
You got more rabbit than Sainsbury's
It's time you got it off your chest
Now you was just the kind of girl to break my heart in two

Chorus
I knew right off when I first met my eyes on you
But how was I to know you'd break my ear holes too
With your excessive talking,
You're becoming a pest

Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit .....
Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit .....

Now you're a wonderful girl
You got a wonderful smell
You got wonderful arms
You got charms

You got wonderful hair
We make a wonderful pair
No I don't mind havin' a chat ....
But, you have to keep givin' it that

Chorus

Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit
Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit

R&B (Rouge Baiser)

R&B (Rouge Baiser)
Composer(s):
Bernard Lavilliers; S. Santa Maria

Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



Je vais te chanter
C'que je peux pas te dire
Encore
Je vais murmurer
C'que j'voulais t'écrire
Alors
Je viens d'arriver
Perdu seul ici
J'peux rien expliquer
Juste caresser la mélodie
De ma voix cassée

Somehow I need you
Love me love me tender
Somehow I loose you
I loose you remember

Un soleil rouillé
Sur ta peau métisse
S'endort
Nos deux sangs mêlés
Tes reins élastiques
Alors
Tout peut arriver
Ailleurs loin d'ici
Je veux plus y penser
Quelques mots d'amour au fond du lit
De ma voix cassée

Somehow I need you
Love me love me tender
Somehow I loose you
I loose you remember

Je vais te chanter
C'que j'voulais te dire
Alors
De ma voix cassée

Remember remember ...

First release by: John Fred & His Playboy Band - 1959



Shirley
Shirley, I love you so
I'm never gonna let you go
Shirley where are you goin' tonight?

Shirley
Shirley will you be my girl?
I'll take you all around the world
Shirley where are you goin' tonight?

Oh Shirley
Shirley, I'd buy you anything
Would you like a diamond ring?
Shirley where are you going tonight?

I called Shirley's mama on the phone
She said Shirley's not at home
She said my little girl won't be back soon
She's gone on a honeymoon.

Oh Shirley
Shirley you've done me wrong
That's why I sing this song
Shirley where are you going tonight?

I called Shirley's mama on the phone
She said Shirley's not at home
She said my little girl won't be back soon
She's gone on a honeymoon.

Oh Shirley
Shirley you've done me wrong
That's why I sing this song
Shirley where are you going tonight?

Oh Shirley
Shirley I love you so
I'm never gonna let you go
Shirley where are you going tonight?

Ships In The Night


Ships In The Night
Composer(s): Jack Bruce; Pete Brown
Performer(s): Jack Bruce



Ships in the night
Searching for day
Beckoning lips
So far away
Shadows adrift
Hiding from light
Ships in the night

Sometimes you feel
Then again you can't
Morning comes down
Soon after the dance
Time slowly drowns
Streets so unreal
Needing to heal

Harbours of love
Shining so calm
For beyond pain
Outside of harm
Why must we move
Into the rain
Again...

Ships in the night
Riding the waves
Yesterday slips
Into the haze
Memories ripped
Sliding from sight
Ships in the night

Maybe you win
Maybe you lose
Future seems like
Just another ruse
Sirens invite
Us to begin
Come right on in

Harbours of love
Shining so calm
Far beyond pain
Outside of harm
Why must we move
Out of the sun
Into the rain
Again...

Shipoopi


Shipoopi
Composer(s): Meredith Willson
Performer(s): Jimmy Giuffre
and multiple other artists



Well, a woman who'll kiss on the very first date
Is usually a hussy
And a woman who'll kiss on the second time out
Is anything but fussy
But a woman who'll wait till the third time around
Head in the clouds, feet on the ground
She's the girl he's glad he's found
She's his Shipoopi

Shipoopi! Shipoopi, Shipoopi
The girl who's hard to get!
Shipoopi. Shipoopi, Shipoopi
But you can win her yet.

Walk her once just to raise the curtain
Then you walk around twice and make for certain
Once more in the flower garden
She will never get sore if you beg her pardon

Do re me fa so la si
Do si la sol fa mi re do

Squeeze her once, when she isn't lookin'
If you get a squeeze back that's fancy cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
She will never get sore on her way to supper

Do re me fa sol la si
Do si do

Now little ol' Sal was a no-gal
As anyone could see
Lookit her now, she's a go-gal
Who only goes for me

Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'
If you get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
She will never get sore on her way to supper

Do re me fa sol la si
Do si do

Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
The girl who's hard to get
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
But you can win her yet

Shipoopi

Ship To Shore


Ship To Shore
Composer(s): Chris de Burgh
Performer(s): Chris de Burgh



Ship to shore, do you read me anymore
This line is bad, and fading
Ship to shore, answer my call
Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home

I have been to see the world
Tasted life at every turn
And all the time
Your face came back to haunt me

Day by day the feeling grew
I know I'm still in love with you
The further that I go
The more I know it, I wanna show it

Ship to shore, do you read me anymore
This line is bad, and fading
Ship to shore, answer my call
Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home

Moving fast, all systems go
You and I had time to grow
Before there was a breakdown in transmission

How I wish that we could turn
The clock back to the days when
We were lovers in the true sense
of the meaning, you must believe me

Ship to shore, do you read me anymore
This line is bad, I'm drowning
Ship to shore, answer my call
Send me a signal, a beacon to bring me home

Ship to shore,ship to shore, ship to shore ...

I cannot believe my eyes
But I think I see a light
You are everything I've always
Wanted in my life

The human race was dyin' out
Noone left to scream and shout
People walking on the moon
Smog will get you pretty soon

Everyone was hanging out
Hanging up and hanging down
Hanging in and holding fast
Hope our little world will last

Yeah, along came Mr. Goodtrips
Looking for a new a ship
Come on, people better climb on board
Come on, baby, now we're going home
Ship of fools, ship of fools

The human race was dyin' out
Noone left to scream and shout
People walking on the moon
Smog will get you pretty soon
Ship of fools, ship of fools
Ship of fools, ship of fools
Ship of fools, ship of fools ...

Shining Star


Shining Star
Composer(s): Masami Kurumada



When you look back through the time
What did you find in your life
What do you see, through your heart
Is there still a strength in you
or are you
falling apart

Come let me hold you in my arms
I'll always be here for you
Close your eyes and rest your soul
Let me wipe away your tears
I'll kiss away your fears
So you can fly again
spread your wings up high and touch that one endless sky

Shining star, sparkling in the sky
Like a diamond shining in your special way
I see you twinkling light night and day
Shining star, shining way up high
In the dark sky, you are the guiding light forever
shining bright out there in the night

There's light inside your eyes
Is it for tomorrows dreams
That you believe, light of hope
Could it be the tears you cry from those sad memories

Come let me hold you in my arms I'll always be here for you
Close your eyes and rest your soul
There's so many dreams to see, just let your heart go free
Sail on the winds of time
Keep on searching cause your dream are just a touch away

Shining star, sparkling in the sky
I feel you so close to me, you are my light
I see your twinkling light rain or shine
Shining star, shining way up high
Keep on shining even on stormy nights
you're always shining right here in my heart

Shining star, sparkling in the sky
Like a diamond shining in your special way
I see you twinkling light night and day
Shining star, shining way up high
In the dark sky, you are the guiding light forever
shining bright out there in the night

Shine, Shine, Shine


Shine, Shine, Shine
Composer(s): Ken Bell; Bud McGuire
Performer(s): Eddy Raven; Jim Yeomans



Go ahead with what you’re doing, you don’t have to pay me any mind
Don’t think I won’t get to it, I got plans for her tonight
You can watch her dance forever, you won’t hold her in your arms tonight
When it’s all said and done, I will be the one to hold her tight

So let her shine, shine, shine
Sit back and let that little girl shine, shine, shine
When the night is over she’ll be mine, mine, mine
Sit back and let that little girl shine

She’s like a brand new penny, even though she never had a dime
See her sparkle see her glisten, no one holds a candle when she shines
She turns a mile a minute, see her twirl just like spinning top
But one thing that you’ll find, it’s me who’s on her mind when the music stops

So let her shine, shine, shine
Sit back and let that little girl shine, shine, shine
When the night is over she’ll be mine, mine, mine
Sit back and let that little girl shine

You can watch her dance forever, you won’t hold her in your arms tonight
When it’s all said and done, I will be the one to hold her tight

So let her shine, shine, shine
Sit back and let that little girl shine, shine, shine
When the night is over she’ll be mine, mine, mine
Sit back and let that little girl shine

Let her shine
Sit back and let that little girl shine, shine, shine
Sit back and let that little girl shine, shine, shine
When the night is over she’ll be mine, mine, mine
Sit back and let that little girl shine

Shine Shine
Composer(s): George Bitzer; Maurice Gibb; Barry Gibb
Performer(s): Bee Gees



I've never been sorry for the way I was raised

The enemy fewer and the love that I made was the symbol on the times

A celebration of the wine I made a memory in you
I'll still be the reader of the letters you write

I've never been lonely for the rest of my life
there's a corner in my heart

Oh
we can never be apart
no
we can never be apart
Look tomorrow
you be gone tomorrow
we can dance the night away

I can bestow to you all my love on your wedding day
Shine
shine
for how much longer you'll be mine

There'll be no words to be broken.
You mean no world to me someone else that we both call love in your eyes

I believe together you'll shine
I was born to be with you on the day you were born

A beautiful angel with her face in the sun

She was searchin' for the moon in ev'ry sparkle in the spoon
You haven't changed.
I'll still be the face in ev'rybody you see a light in the night

If you need me to be in ev'ry corner of the world

If any smile becomes a tear I will shelter you from the rain

Look tomorrow
you be gone tomorrow
we can dance the night away

Shine
shine
for how much longer you'll be mine

And now I love you
there's no one I place above you
life is a road before you

While he can show the way for you
my darling
I will pray for you
Slune
shine
For how much longer you'll be mine ...

Shine On, Harvest Moon


Shine On, Harvest Moon
Composer(s): Nora Bayes; Jack Norworth
First performance by: Nora Bayes & Jack Norworth - 1908
Covered by multiple other artists



The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see
And the moon refused to shine
Couple sittin' underneath the willow tree; for love they pined
The little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness, so
She said, "I guess I'll go"
The boy began to sigh, looked up in the sky
And told the moon his little tale of woe

"Shine on, shine on, harvest moon up in the sky
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July
Snow time ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on, harvest moon, for me and my gal"

I can't see why a boy should cry when by his side
Is a girl he loves so true
All he has to say is "Won't you be my bride, for I love you"
But why should I be telling you this secret when
I know that you can guess?
Harvest moon will smile, shine on all the while
If the little girl should answer "Yes"!

"Shine on, shine on, harvest moon up in the sky
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July
Snow time ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on, harvest moon, for me and my gal"

Shine On You Crazy Diamond


Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Composer(s): Roger Waters; Richard Wright; David Gilmour
First release by: Pink Floyd - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists



Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom
blown on the steel breeze
Come on you target for faraway laughter
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision
rode on the steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far
Shine on you crazy diamond
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there
Shine on you crazy diamond
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph
sail on the steel breeze
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine

Shine On Brightly


Shine On Brightly
Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid
Performer(s): Procol Harum



My Prussian-blue electric clock's
alarm bell rings, it will not stop
and I can see no end in sight
and search in vain by candlelight
for some long road that goes nowhere
for some signpost that is not there
And even my befuddled brain
is shining brightly, quite insane
The chandelier is in full swing
as gifts for me the three kings bring
of myrrh and frankincense, I'm told
and fat old Buddhas carved in gold
And though it seems they smile with glee
I know in truth they envy me
and watch as my befuddled brain
shines on brightly quite insane
Above all else confusion reigns
And though I ask no-one explains
My eunuch friend has been and gone
He said that I must soldier on
And though the Ferris wheel spins round
my tongue it seems has run aground
and croaks as my befuddled brain
shines on brightly, quite insane

Shine A Little Love


Shine A Little Love
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
Electric Light Orchestra; Meanstreet Boys; Jason Prince



Although the things you've done I wouldn't criticize
I guess you had your way
You see I gotta make you understand
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say
But it don't matter baby 'cos' today's another day

You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see

Remember,tonight we're gonna run till dawn
Remember,tonight we're gonna say
We'll never stop we got a good thing goin' on
I know you've heard it all before
But I really need you darlin' every day I need you more

You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see

Can you understand (Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I'll do it all again)

It's been a year now and it's getting so much better
You came home without a word
Though everybody said you'll soon forget her
Thay couldn't see and they just didn't understand
And lookin' in the mirror there were fools at either hand

Can you understand (Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right (I know it is)
Will you be the same (I'll do it all again)

How many days had I been waiting there to tell you
I really can't believe
We're walkin' out into the world tonight
We'll do it all again until the break of light
And the feelin' in your heart will soon be shinin' in your eyes

You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see

Shine (Ella Fitzgerald)


Shine
Composer(s): Lew Brown - Ford Dabney - Cecil Mack
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald
and multiple other artists



'Cause my hair is curly
Just because my teeth are pearly
Just because I always wear a smile
Like to dress up in the latest style

'Cause I'm glad I'm livin'
I take these troubles all with a smile
Just because my color's shady,
That's the difference, maybe, why they call me

Shine, sway your blues'ies.
Why don't you shine?
Start with your shoes'ies.
Shine each place up, make it look like new.
Shine your face up, I want to see you wear a smile or two.

Why don't you shine your these and thoseies?
You'll find everything gonna turn out right fine
Folks will shine up to ya'
Everybody's gonna howdy doody do-ya'
You'll make the whole world shine

Oh chocolate drop, that's me...

'Cause my hair is curly, (man's got curly hair)
Now just because my teeth are pearly, (also got pearly teeth)
Just because I always wear a smile, (oh keep on smiling)
Like to dress us, babe, in the latest style.

'Cause I'm glad I'm livin'
I take these troubles all with a smile
Now just because my color's shady (you's a shady baby)
That's the difference, maybe, why they call me...

Shine away your blues'ies
Shine, start with your shoes'ies
You'll make the whole world shine
