Per Averti


Per Averti
Composer(s): Gianni Bella; Mogol
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano



Girasoli a testa in giù
avviliti come me
come posso immaginare
tutta la vita senza te

per averti
farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso
e se è questo
che tu mi chiedi
io ti perdo ma stavolta resto in piedi
anche se qui dentro me qualcosa muore

si per averti - per averti
farei di tutto
ma rinuncio con dolore
si per averti - farei di tutto
ma non ti voglio, non ti voglio
senza amore

Tu due cuori non li hai
e a me non basta la metà
se tu scegliere non sai
scelgo io che male fa...

Ma senza voglia
e senza futuro
vado incontro tutto solo a un cielo nero

Io non mi vendo
ma sto morendo
morsicato da un serpente e senza siero
disperato ma però un uomo vero

Si per averti farei di tutto
ma non voglio avere un animo più brutto
si per averti farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso

per averti
farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso
e se è questo
che tu mi chiedi
io ti perdo ma stavolta resto in piedi
anche se qui dentro me qualcosa muore

si per averti - per averti
farei di tutto
ma rinuncio con dolore
si per averti - farei di tutto
ma non ti voglio, non ti voglio
senza amore

coro:
si per averti farei di tutto

Nygammal Vals (Hip Man Svinaherde)


Nygammal Vals (Hip Man Svinaherde)
First performance by: Lill Lindfors & Svante Thuresson - 1966



För länge sedan i världen fanns
En svinaherde, en stenhipp man
Och en prinsessa, stolt jungfru hon var
En dag möttes de och han steg fram och sa

Kors i karamellen, vilken schysst mam'sell du verkar vara
Titta vilken klänning, jätteklämmig
Är det maskerad, va?
Stick iväg från stigen, du var mig en osedvanlig lurk
Jag är prinsessa, ganska så sipp
Jag heter kunnigunda, konungens gull
Du, simma långsamt, var lite hipp
Hör när jag trummelummar på min kastrull

Digga digga pop...

Tjong i medaljongen, en så'n festlig sång du trumma' nyss, va?
Lär du bara mig att trummelumma får du mun min kyssa
Mun har varje jänta, kan man inte tänka sig en slant?
Dricker ur bäcken, lever av mull
Har man en slant på fickan kan man stå lull
Du var en fräck en, får inget gull
Men jag vill trummelumma på din kastrull

Digga digga pop...

Klang i kantarellen, det var väldans, bruden har visst bråttom
Vad i hela friden ser du i den? Grytor finns det gott om
Grytan där den låter skönt, den ljuder grönt, en lajbans klang
Vi gör ett avtal, ta't eller stick
Jag blir hipp svinaherde, du kungens gull
Jag som prinsessa? Visst man är hipp
Ta då min trummelumma, ta min kastrull

Han som prinsessa, hipp man i clips
Hivades ut från hovet av en patrull
Hon svinaherde, sipp brud i slips
Gjorde var männ'ska galen, spelte kastrull
Döden i grytan byta bort sin kastrull

Cada vez que hay luna llena
Tú, te vuelves cándida

Tintarella di luna
Que te has vuelto delicada
Como flor de invernadero
De la noche enamorada
Cada vez que hay luna llena
Tu te vuelves cándida

Tin, tin, tin baños de luna
Tin, tin, tin mágica luz
No existe ninguna cándida como tú

Tintarella di luna
Paliducha te has quedado
Porque siempre estás de noche
Como gato en el tejado
Cada vez que hay luna llena
Tú te vuelves cándida

Tin, tin, tin baños de luna

Sing It Pretty, Sue


Sing It Pretty, Sue
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash



So you gave up all between us
For a glamourous career
And with all your talent you should be
The big star of the year
Then you'll be public property
So I release my claim to you
Go on and give 'em all you've got
Sing it pretty, Sue

I can't take just part of you
And give the world a half
So smile for all the papers
And give 'em autographs
Go on to all the cities
So your public can see you
But I'll watch on television
So sing it pretty, Sue

I hope you'll soon be on the top
Of every hit parade
I'll try to be excited
'Bout the progress that you've made
I'll collect your pictures
Like any fan would do
And I'll buy all your records
So sing it pretty, Sue

But I won't ever tell a soul
That we have ever met
I'll just be one of millions
Who'll give the praise you get
And maybe every year or so
I'll drop a card to you
To tell you I'm still listening
So sing it pretty, Sue

Pequeñas Cosas


Pequeñas Cosas
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



Pequeña estrella, gota de luz
como es la paz, dímelo tú
vuela paloma, sin descansar
tus alas llevan, la libertad
A veces me pregunto
porque guardamos todos
oculta tras un velo la verdad
si ella nace con el sol
crece junto a cada flor
y madura alrededor
de pequeñas cosas
Navega el río, muere en el mar
como a mi vida, te veo pasar
A veces me pregunto
porque guardamos todos
oculta tras un velo la verdad
si ella nace con el sol
crece junto a cada flor
y madura alrededor
de pequeñas cosas
De pequeñas cosas

Sing For Your Supper


Sing For Your Supper
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Lorenz Hart
Performer(s): The Mamas & The Papas
and multiple other artists



Hawks and crows do lots of things
but the canary only sings
She is a courtesan on wings
So I've heard
Eagles and storks are twice as strong
All the canary knows is song
But the canary gets along
Guilded bird!

Sing for your supper
And you'll get breakfast
Songbirds always eat
If their song is sweet to hear

Sing for your luncheon
And you'll get dinner
Dine with wine of choice
If romance is in your voice

I heard from a wise canary
Trilling makes a fellow willing
So, little swallow, swallow now
Now is the time to

Sing for your supper
And you'll get breakfast
Songbirds are not dumb
They don't buy a crumb
Of bread
It's said
So sing and you'll be fed

Pequeña Serenata Diurna
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez;
and various other artists



Vivo en un país libre
cual solamente puede ser libre
en esta tierra, en este instante
y soy feliz porque soy gigante
Amo a una mujer clara
que amo y me ama
sin pedir nada
o casi nada
que no es lo mismo
pero es igual
Y si esto fuera poco
tengo mis cantos
que poco a poco
muelo y rehago
habitando el tiempo
como le cuadra
a un hombre despierto
Soy feliz
soy un hombre feliz
y quiero que me perdonen
por este día
los muertos de mi felicidad

Sing For The Song


Sing For The Song
Composer(s): Bob Gibson
Performer(s): Harry Belafonte



Oh sometimes you sing for the money
Sometimes you sing for the show
Sometimes you sing for those dewy eyed darlings
It still makes them cry don't you know

One time you sang for the glory
But the glory didn't last very long
From the haze to the stage back to the days
When you used to sing for the song

Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul

Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul

Comes the time when you don't make much money
And you don't put on much of a show
And those dewy eyed darlings
Next week will be crying
For somebody else don't you know
Now your tune is becoming your burden
Words are all twisted and wrong
And the song that you sell
Don't taste quite as well
As when you used to sing for the song

Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul

Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul

Pépito


Pépito
Composer(s): T. Taylor; Jonathon Truscott
Performer(s): André Bourvil



Pépito est malheureux, il traîne un cœur douloureux
Il y a des larmes, des milliers de larmes dans ses yeux
Pépito est amoureux, mais aucun de ses aveux
Ne touche la belle, à l'âme cruelle
C'est un miséreux qui s'en va
Portant dans ses bras, son amie: sa guitare

Pépito est malheureux, mais quand pour les amoureux
Chaque soir il chante, les mots qu'il invente, st joyeux
Pour 4 pièces d'argent, la sérénade est donnée
Pour remplacer Don Juan qui voudra se faire aimer
Et ce soir il chantera
Pour celle qui l'oublie dans d'autres bras

Pépito est malheureux, mais il doit jouer le jeu
Il chante quand même en cachant la peine de ses yeux
Pépito est amoureux, ce qu'il fait est dangereux
Car sa ritournelle sera pour la belle un dernier adieux
Mais demain, pour d'autres refrains, il prendra sa guitare
Pépito sur ton chemin, une fille te tend la main
Encore bien plus belle, déjà tu l'appel ton destin

Pepito mi corazon, pepito de mis amores
Cantame a mi, cantame a mi con amor
Pepito eres mi vida, mi carinio mi querido
Nunca he comprendido... porque intereso ti
Quiere me, quiere me, mese me, entre tus brazos
Pepito mi corazon, dame mas de tu carinio
Cantame asi, cantame asi, con amor

Ele E Ela


Ele E Ela
Composer(s): Carlos Canelhas - Filipe Bx - João Luís First performance by: Madalena Iglésias - 1966



Sei quem ele é
ele é bom rapaz
um pouco tímido até
vivia no sonho de encontrar o amor
pois seu coração pedia mais
mais calor

Ela apareceu
e a beleza dela
desde logo o prendeu
gostam um do outro e agora ele diz
que alcançou na vida o maior bem
é feliz

Só pensa nela
a toda a hora
jonha com ela
p'la noite fora
chora por ela
se ela não vem

Só fala nela
cada momento
vive com ela
no pensamento
ele sem ela
não é ninguém

Sei quem ele é
ele é bom rapaz
um pouco tímido até
vivia no sonho de encontrar o amor
pois seu coração pedia mais
mais calor

Ela apareceu
e a beleza dela
desde logo o prendeu
gostam um do outro
e agora ele diz
que alcançou na vida o maior bem
é feliz

Só pensa nela
a toda a hora
sonha com ela
p'la noite fora
chora por ela
se ela não vem

Só fala nela
cada momento
vive com ela
no pensamento
ele sem ela não é ninguém
ele sem ela não é ninguém
ele sem ela não é ninguém

Pepino The Italian Mouse


Pepino The Italian Mouse
French Title: Minnie Petite Souris
Composer(s): Ray Allen; Wandra Merrell
Performer(s): Lou Monte



Signore e signori, io mi chiamo Pepino Suracilla
[Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Pepino the Mouse]
And, what a mulaniana!

Pepino, oh, you little mouse
Oh, won't you go away
Find yourself another house to run around and play
You scare my girl, you eat my cheese, you even drink my wine
I try so hard to catch you but you trick me all the time

Ce sta una suracilla basci’ u’ “cellar” mezzo mure
Ogni sera ella esce quando la casa é scura
Ella do indo la cucina balla sula-sula
Appara ‘nu malandrina, pura la gata s’a paura

[There’s a mouse down in the cellar between the walls
Every evening it comes out when the house is dark
She comes up in the kitchen and dances all alone
She seems like such a rascal, even the cat is terrified]

Pepino suracilla, m’a fatta scumbati
Managia suracilla!
Di casa n’andai
Stasera illa cucina ‘nu poco di vino en c’e lascia
E quando s’embriaga, ah Pepino é c’encappa

[Pepino the mouse, you’ve embarassed me
The heck with this mouse
Get out of my house
This evening in the kitchen a little wine will be left
And when he’s good and drunk, ah, Pepino will be caught!]

The other night I called my girl
I asked her could we meet
I said let's go to my house
We could have a bite to eat
And as we walked in through the door
she screamed at what she saw
There was little Pepino
Doin' the cha-cha on the floor

Pepino suracilla, m’a fatta scumbati
Managia suracilla! Di casa n’andai
Stasera illa cucina ‘nu poco di vino en c’e lascia
E quando s’embriaga a Pepino e c’encappa

A essa non si piace formaggio American’
Ella va trovando ‘nu poca Parmegian’
S’e fatto ghiata ghiata usce stegga da pur
Quando qu’ella camina apara nu propia calendola

[It doesn’t like American cheese
It goes around finding Parmesan
Then it’ll get really big and fat
And when it walks it’ll look like a calendola [a fat, wobbly herb]

Sing C'est La Vie (Dutch Version)

Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie

Er woonde een man op t' vierde bij ons in't gebouw
Hij had daar gezelschap, 'n poes, twintig honden, een pauw
Van al dat lawaai werd de slager beneden zo zot
Heel stiekem verdwenen die beesten voorgoed in de pot

But he said when things go wrong
Just sing this song
The birds in the trees
Will sing harmony

Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie

Er was een concierge bij ons, die had een idool
Hij kweelde haar na en speelde daarbij nog viool
Een drama was het voor ieder daar in de buurt
k' heb toen maar een "killer" gezocht, die naar hem toegestuurd

But she said when things go wrong
Just sing this song
The birds in the trees
Will sing harmony

Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie

Den bakker bij ons, den dikke, was al jaren getrouwd
Zijn vrouwkje, ochgodtoch, heeft zich, dat altijd berouwd
Hij ging ervandoor en bouwde zich helemaal om
Hij woont nu in't stad en noemt zich madame Duromme

But she said when things go wrong
Just sing this song
The birds in the trees
Will sing harmony

Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie

C'est La Vie

Pépée


Pépée
Composer(s): Léo Ferré
Performer(s): Léo Ferré



T'avais les mains comm' des raquettes
Pépée
Et quand j'te f'sais les ongles
J'voyais des fleurs dans ta barbiche
T'avais les oreill's de Gainsbourg
Mais toi t'avais pas besoin d'scotch
Pour les r'plier la nuit
Tandis que lui... ben oui!
Pépée

T'avais les yeux comm' des lucarnes
Pépée
Comme on en voit dans l'port d'Anvers
Quand les matins ont l'âme verte
Et qu'il leur faut des yeux d'rechange
Pour regarder la nuit des autres
Comme on r'gardait un chimpanzé
Chez les Ferré
Pépée

T'avais le cœur comme un tambour
Pépée
De ceux qu'on voil' le vendredi saint
Vers les trois heures après midi
Pour regarder Jésus-machin
Souffler sur ses trent'-trois bougies
Tandis que toi t'en avais qu'huit
Le sept avril
De soixante-huit
Pépée

J'voudrais avoir les mains d'la mort
Pépée
Et puis les yeux et puis le cœur
Et m'en venir coucher chez toi
Ça chang'rait rien à mon décor
On couch' toujours avec des morts
On couch' toujours avec des morts
On couch' toujours avec des morts
Pépée

Sing C'est La Vie (English Version)


Sing C'est La Vie ((Dutch Version: Sing C'est La Vie (by Willy Sommers, Lisa Del Bo, Luc Steeno) - 2003)) (Swedisch Version: Sjung Denna Sång - 1968) Composer(s): Sonny Bono; Charles Greene; Brian Stone First release by: Sonny & Cher - 1965 Covered by multiple other artists



Sing c'est la vie and soon you will see
Your cares will be free; just sing c'est la vie

I once knew a man who owned a butcher shop (ah!)
He also had apartments to rent up on top
But he didn't include on the sign that he painted "No pets"
And the tenant who rented had 6 hungry dogs, he regrets
(But he said...)

When things go wrong, just sing a song
The birds in the trees will sing harmony
Sing c'est la vie and soon you will see
Your cares will be free; just sing c'est la vie

If you think the old woman who lived in the shoe had it bad
The story of Mrs. Pierre is 10 times as sad (ah, poor woman!)
With 22 children, a duck and 2 goats in the bins
She was gaily informed by a doctor that she's having twins
(But she said...)

When things go wrong, just sing a song
The birds in the trees will sing harmony
Sing c'est la vie and soon you will see
Your cares will be free; just sing c'est la vie

And have I mentioned to you the worst one of all?
The night Amer & his wife had their annual ball (ah, I remember that!)
The speeches he makes after dinner became quite renowned
But this time he sneezed when he spoke, and his pants, they fell down
(But they said...)

When things go wrong, just sing a song
The birds in the trees will sing harmony
Sing c'est la vie and soon you will see
Your cares will be free; just sing c'est la vie

(C'est la vie!)

Pepe Rodríguez, El De La Barba En Flor
Composer(s): Pablo Guerrero
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
cuando cae la tarde coge el metro hasta Sol
sube las escaleras silbando una canción
mirada en ristre, llega a la Plaza Mayor
Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
es celta y árabe, ibero y español
romántico y torero, guitarrero y cantor
de mujeres y vinos muy buen catador
Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
del "American Pie" es gran degustador
Arco de Cuchilleros baja con tal primor
que extranjeras y "guiris" le demandan amor
Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
sabe inglés que aprendió de noche en un mesón
Llega pues y sonríe, un vino y ya ligó
!Oh! mío Pepe, el de la barba en flor
Les habla de Unamuno, de Goya y de Colón
de Segovia y Toledo, de playas y de sol
y de Pablo Guerrero, por aquello del folk
Bueno esto último me lo he inventado yo
Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
lleva a sus "guiris" a un piso coquetón
y después de unas copas lo que allí sucedió
ni lo cuentas las crónicas, ni lo contaré yo
Pepe Rodríguez, el de la barba en flor
se porta como lo que es, un legítimo español
y les regala un sombrero cordobés, cómo no
y unas cuantas postales de Madrid con amor
!Oh! mío Pepe, el de la barba en flor
tus amigos te envidian por tu liberación
vives como en Europa y salvas la tradición
que los siglos te canten, como te canto yo

Autot tulipunaiset

Pépé


Pépé
Composer(s): Hans Wittstatt
Performer(s): Dalida



Dans toute la ville on le nomme Pépé
C'est un curieux petit bonhomme Pépé
Pantalon en accordéon, moustache noire en tire-bouchon
Quand on l'appelle hop!
il ne fait qu'un bond
Dîtes-moi donc

Sous le chapeau cocasse de Pépé
Qui aurait plus de grâce que Pépé
Qui fait l'été quand il sourit
A qui toujours tout réussi dans la vie
Pépé, Pépé c'est lui

Sa chemise est trouée comme une dentelle
Mais il y fait des reprises avec des morceaux de ciel

Son cerveau bat la campagne et bien qu'il soit tout petit
Son cœur est une montagne qu'il donne à tous ces amis

Dans toute la ville on le nomme Pépé
C'est un curieux petit bonhomme Pépé
Pantalon en accordéon, moustache noire en tire bouchon
Quand on l'appelle, hop!
il ne fait qu'un bond
Dîtes-moi donc

Qui a moins dans les poches que Pépé
Et moins dans la caboche que Pépé
Mais qui est heureux comme il vit
Et qui cent fois redit merci à la vie
Pépé, Pépé, Pépé
Oh Pépé, c'est lui

Sing Boy Sing
Composer(s): Tommy Sands; Rod McKuen
Performer(s): Tommy Sands



Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away
Whenever I get lonely, sing boy sing
When life goes kind of sadly, sing boy sing
When I start to open my mouth and sing a little song
Makes everything right that once seemed wrong
Even the cuckoo in the clock on the wall
Is just a-having himself a natural ball
Sing boy sing, things are better
Sing boy sing, yeah better
Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away

Now, a girl can make you happy, sing boy sing
But might just make me lonely, sing boy sing
When I start to open my mouth and sing a little song
Makes it easy to forget what she done wrong
I thought I couldn't do it, but I set out to try
Sang a little song and forgot how to cry
Sing boy sing, things are better
Sing boy sing, yeah better
Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away

Well, I done a lot of travelling, sing boy sing
Just like ball of twine unravelling, sing boy sing
When you start to open your mouth and sing a little song
Hop on a choo-choo, let it chug all along
It makes no difference if I get bad news
I just sing this song and say so long blues
Sing boy sing (sing boy)
Sing boy sing (sing boy)
Sing boy sing (sing all your blues away)
