Batman Theme


Batman Theme Composer(s): Jan Berry - Don Altfield Performer(s): Jan & Dean



I don't know who he is behind that mask
But we need him, and we need him now

He's known as Bruce Wayne by day, wealthy socialite
(Gotham City, here they come)
But incognito in dress, he fights crime by night
(Gotham City, here they come)
Yeah it's Batman and Robin, Boy Wonder at his side
Hey now, Riddler, Penguin, Joker, better go and hide

We need the Batman (Batman)
We need the Batman (Batman)
Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot
So my disguise must be able
To strike terror into their hearts

Now as the Bat Signal sweeps across the midnight sky
(Gotham City, here they come)
Somewhere in Gotham City it'll find the Batman's eye
(Gotham City, here they come)
There's a crime wave goin' on, but not for very long
'Cause the Batman's gonna teach 'em right from wrong

They call him Batman (Batman)
They call him Batman (Batman)
They just see that strange car (no, why?)
It was shaped like a bat

So when you see the Batmobile quickly pass you by
(Gotham City, here they come)
You know they've heard the Batphone & the Commissioner's cry
(Gotham City, here they come)
Yeah that Dynamic Duo's out to prove crime doesn't pay
And from the Batcave our heroes keep evil at bay

We need the Batman (Batman)
We need the Batman (Batman)
I must be a creature of the night

Like, terrible! Um...um...
As if in answer a huge bat flies through the open window!
A bat, that's it, it's an omen; I shall become a bat!
Thus is born this weird figure of the dark, this avenger of evil, the Batman!

Batman
Batman
Batman
Batman
Batman

L'amour A Fait De Moi


L'amour A Fait De Moi
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



J'entendais de puis mon jeune âge
Mon papa qui me disait
Prends bien garde aux femmes volages
À l'amour et ses attraits
J'avais ça dans la mémoire
Je me croyais le plus fort
Mais depuis hier quelle histoire
J'ai changé mon sort

L'amour a fait de moi un amoureux madame
Madame
L'amour a fait de moi c'est merveilleux madame
Madame
Il a fait de moi tout ce qu'il a voulu
Quand j'y pense je ne me reconnais plus
Non plus

L'amour a fait de moi votre valet madame
Madame
L'amour a fait de moi un adepte de plus
Qui se promène simplement en rêvant dans les rues
L'amour a fait de moi un amoureux de plus

Je vais comme un somnambule
Répétant votre prénom
Les passants que je bouscule me disent
"Alors quoi faites attention"
Je ne sais ce qu'il se passe
Je crois vous voir à chaque pas
Et les femmes que j'embrasse
Je ne les reconnais pas

L'amour a fait de moi un amoureux madame
Madame
L'amour a fait de moi c'est merveilleux madame
Ahh... madame
Il a fait de moi tout tout tout ce qu'il a voulu
Quand j'y pense je ne me reconnais plus
Non plus
L'amour a fait de moi votre valet madame
L'amour a fait de moi un adepte de plus
Qui se promène simplement en rêvant dans les rues
L'amour a fait de moi... oui
L'amour a fait de moi... ah
L'amour a fait de moi
Un amant plein de joies

Baticum


Baticum
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Gilberto Gil



Bia falou: ah, claro que eu vou
Clara ficou até o sol raiar
Dadá também saracoteou
Didi tomou o que era pra tomar
Ainda bem que Isa me arrumou
Um barco bom pra gente chegar lá
Lelê também foi e apreciou
O baticum lá na beira do mar
Aquela noite tinha de bom e do melhor
Tô lhe contando que é pra lhe dar água na boca

Veio Mané da Consolação
Veio o Barão de lá do Ceará
Um professor falando alemão
Um avião veio do Canadá
Monsieur Dupont trouxe o dossier
E a Benetton topou patrocinar
A Sanyo garantiu o som
Do baticum lá na beira do mar
Aquela noite
Quem tava lá na praia viu
E quem não viu jamais verá
Mas se você quiser saber
A Warner gravou
E a Globo vai passar

Bia falou: ah, claro que eu vou
Clara ficou até o sol raiar
Dadá também saracoteou
Didi tomou o que era pra tomar
Isso é que é, Pepe se chegou
Pelé pintou, só que não quis ficar
O campeão da Fórmula 1
No baticum lá na beira do mar
Aquela noite
Tinha do bom e do melhor
Só tô lhe contando que é pra lhe dar água na boca

Zeca pensou: antes que era bom
Mano cortou: brother, o que é que há
Foi a G.E. quem iluminou
E a MacIntosh entrou com o vatapá
O JB fez a crítica
E o cardeal deu ordem pra fechar
O Carrefour, digo, o baticum
Da Benetton, não, da beira do mar

L'amour


L'amour
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Il est la réponse aux questions
De nos âmes inquiètes
Et le maître des sensations
Qui blanchissent nos nuits
Terre de force et de faiblesse
Semée de haine et de tendresse
L'amour
Il est le pôle d'attraction
Qui fait tourner les têtes
Et parfois selon l'occasion
Le chat et la souris
Mais conscient de ses privilèges
En fin de compte il est le piège
L'amour, l'amour

L'amour, l'amour, l'amour
L'amour, l'amour
Mon amour

On ne sait comment il fleurit
Ni soudain pourquoi il s'achève
Souvent il prolonge les rêves
Parfois il écourte la vie
Il est la folle incarnation
De nos idées abstraites
Le chef-d'œuvre de perfection
D'un auteur de génie
Il est fait d'ombre et de lumière
Ce mal qui nous est nécessaire
L'amour, l'amour

L'amour, l'amour, l'amour
L'amour, l'amour
Mon amour

Batgirl Theme
Composer(s): Billy May
Performer(s): Yvonne Craig



Batgirrrl, Batgirl!
Batgirrrl, Batgirl!
Where do you come from, where do you go?
What is your scene, baby, we just gotta know
Batgirrrl, Batgirl!
Batgirrrl, Batgirl!
Are you a chick who fell in from outer space?
Or are you real with a tender warm embrace?
Yaaa, whose baby are you?
Batgirrrl, Batgirl!
Yaaa, whose baby are you?
Batgirl!

L'amore E La Guerra


L'amore E La Guerra
((French Version: L'amour Et La Guerre (by Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Mogol - Gall
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Perché io dovrei ritornare alla guerra
Dopo quello che fu, dopo quello che so
Dove sono finiti gli eroi della guerra
Separati da noi, cercando verità
Primavera verrà lungo ali distese
Che passano nel ciel, alte sopra di noi
E destano per me i sogni d'altri tempi
Illusioni che ormai non importano più
Ogni sogno crollo sulle armi dei padri
E la morte passò, seminata da noi
Ho capito oramai cosa resta da fare
Non contate su me se ricomincerà
Tutto il bene che può una donna che ama
Non il ferro né il fuoco cambiare potrà
E il bene che tu hai per me che ti amo
Contro tutti per noi io lo difenderò
E perché offrire la mia giovane vita
Se la felicità è a due passi da noi
Per amarti vivrò, per amarti per sempre
Finché il sole verrà a brillare per noi

Bat Out Of Hell


Bat Out Of Hell Composer(s): Jim Steinman Performer(s): Meat Loaf



The sirens are screaming, and the fires are howling Way down in the valley tonight There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye And a blade shining oh so bright There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky And a killer's on the bloodshot streets And down in the tunnels where the deadly are rising Oh, I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter He was starting to foam in the heat Oh, baby you're the only thing in this whole world That's pure and good and right And wherever you are and wherever you go There's always gonna be some light But I gotta get out, I gotta break out now Before the final crack of dawn So we gotta make the most of our one night together When it's over, you know We'll both be so alone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes When the night is over, like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone, gone, gone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes But when the day is done and the sun goes down and the moonlight's shining through Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven I'll come crawling on back to you I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram On a silver-black phantom bike When the metal is hot, and the engine is hungry And we're all about to see the light Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole And everything is stunted and lost And nothing really rocks, and nothing really rolls And nothing's ever worth the cost Well I know that I'm damned if I never get out And maybe I'm damned if I do But with every other beat I've got left in my heart You know I wanna be damned with you If I gotta be damned, you know I wanna be damned Dancing through the night with you Well if I gotta be damned, you know I wanna be damned Gotta be damned, you know I wanna be damned Gotta be damned, you know I wanna be damned Dancing through the night Dancing through the night Dancing through the night with you Oh, baby you're the only thing in this whole world That's pure and good and right And wherever you are and wherever you go There's always gonna be some light But I gotta get out, I gotta break out now Before the final crack of dawn So we gotta make the most of our one night together When it's over, you know We'll both be so alone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes When the night is over, like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone, gone, gone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes But when the day is done and the sun goes down and the moonlight's shining through Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven I'll come crawling on back to you Well I can see myself tearing up the road Faster than any other boy has ever gone And my skin is raw, but my soul is ripe And no one's gonna stop me now, I'm gonna make my escape But I can't stop thinking of you And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late Then I'm down in the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell And the last thing I see is my heart, still beating Breaking out of my body and flying away Like a bat out of hell Then I'm down in the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell And the last thing I see is my heart Still beating..still beating... Breaking out of my body, and flying away Like a bat out of hell Like a bat out of hell Like a bat out of hell ... Like a bat out of hell Like a bat out of hell Like a bat out of hell ...

L'amour Et La Guerre


L'amour Et La Guerre
((Italian Version: L'amore E La Guerra (by Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Bernard Dimey
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Pourquoi donc irais-je encore à la guerre
Après ce que j'ai vu, avec ce que je sais?
Où sont-ils à présent les héros de naguère?
Ils sont allés trop loin chercher la vérité

Quel que soit le printemps, les cigognes reviennent
Que de fois, le cœur gros, je les ai vues passer
Elles berçaient pour moi des rêveries anciennes
Illusions d'un enfant dont il n'est rien resté

Toutes les fleurs sont mortes aux fusils de nos pères
Bleuets, coquelicots, d'un jardin dévasté
J'ai compris maintenant ce qu'il me reste à faire
Ne comptez pas sur moi, si vous recommencez

Tout ce que l'on apprend dans le regard des femmes
Ni le feu, ni le fer n'y pourront jamais rien
Car l'amour - et lui seul - survit parmi les flammes
Je ferai ce qu'il faut pour défendre le mien

Pourquoi donc irais-je offrir ma jeunesse
Alors que le bonheur est peut-être à deux pas?
Je suis là pour t'aimer, je veux t'aimer sans cesse
Afin que le soleil se lève sur nos pas

Bat Masterson


Bat Masterson Composer(s): Havens Wray - Bart Cordin Performer(s): Jimmy McPartland - Marian McPartland



Back when the West was very young
There lived a man named Masterson
He wore a cane and Derby hat
They called him Bat, Bat Masterson

A man of steel the stories say
But women's eyes all glanced his way
A gambler's game he always won
His name was Bat, Bat Masterson

The trail that he blazed is still there
No one has come since to replace his name
And those with too ready a trigger
Forgot to figure on his lightning cane

Now, in the legend of the West
One name stands out of all the rest
The man who had the fastest gun
His name was Bat, Bat Masterson

L'amore E' Come Un Giorno

((English Version: Tomorrow Is My Turn (by Charles Aznavour) - 1960))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Yves Stephane - Sergio Bardotti
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1962



L'amore e' come un giorno
Se ne va', se ne va'
L'amore e' come un giorno
Abbagliato dal sole
Tormentato dal vento
Ubriaco di pioggia

L'amore e' come un giorno
Se ne va', se ne va'
L'amore e' come un giorno
Che sempre ti sorride
Che porta la dolcezza
Di una lunga carezza
L'amore e' come un giorno
Se ne va', se ne va'...

L'amour c'est comme un jour
Çà s'en va, ça s'en va l'amour
C'est comme un jour de soleil en ripaille
Et de lune en chamaille
Et de pluie en bataille
L'amour c'est comme un jour
Çà s'en va, ça s'en va l'amour

C'est comme un jour d'un infini sourire
Une infinie tendresse
Une infinie caresse
L'amour c'est comme un jour
Çà s'en va mon amour

Basura Floreada


Basura Floreada
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Basura florada
mentira cochina
cochina saciada
con paja muy fina
Palabras, palabras
recuentos y cifras
discursos, programas
qué gasto en saliva

Nosotros, los parias
morimos de risa
por vuestras patrañas
de poca inventiva
Nosotros, chatarra
de vuestras alquimias
amamos las vacas
con ubres bonitas

Vendemos chorradas
y bolsas de pipas
pelitos de rata
y medio turista
Comemos entrañas
asadas o fritas
de tontos sin gracia
de clase exquisita

Nosotros, la sarna
sin gusto que pica
picamos las nalgas
de excelsos puristas
Cantamos arañas
bacterias y espinas
concretas-abstractas
y leche maligna

No damos la lata
que está prohibida
Las cosas bien claras
no sea que digan
Y aquesto se acaba
echemos cortina
mal rayo nos parta
y a usted lo bendiga

Le soleil brille à pleins feux
Mais je ne vois que tes yeux
La blancheur de ton corps nu
Devant mes mains éperdues
Viens, ne laisse pas s'enfuir
Les matins brodés d'amour
Viens, ne laisse pas mourir
Les printemps, nos plaisirs

Ça s'en va mon amour

Notre été s'en est allé

Te souviens-tu de ces jours
Où nos cœurs parlaient d'amour
Nous n'avons pu retenir
Que des lambeaux de bonheur
S'il n'y a plus d'avenir
Il nous reste un souvenir

Bastidores


Bastidores Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque and multiple other artists



Chorei, chorei
Até ficar com dó de mim
E me tranquei no camarim
Tomei o calmante, o excitante
E um bocado de gim

Amaldiçoei
O dia em que te conheci
Com muitos brilhos me vesti
Depois me pintei, me pintei
Me pintei, me pintei

Cantei, cantei
Como é cruel cantar assim
E num instante de ilusão
Te vi pelo salão
A caçoar de mim

Não me troquei
Voltei correndo ao nosso lar
Voltei pra me certificar
Que tu nunca mais vais voltar
Vais voltar, vais voltar

Cantei, cantei
Nem sei como eu cantava assim
Só sei que todo o cabaré
Me aplaudiu de pé
Quando cheguei ao fim

Mas não bisei
Voltei correndo ao nosso lar
Voltei pra me certificar
Que nunca mais vais voltar

Cantei, cantei
Jamais cantei tão lindo assim
E os homens lá pedindo bis
Bêbados e febris
A se rasgar por mim

Chorei, chorei
Até ficar com dó de mim

Tomorrow Is My Turn


Tomorrow Is My Turn
((Adapted from: L'amour C'est Comme Un Jour (Charles Aznavour) - 1960))
((Italian Version: L'amore E' Come Un Giorno (Charles Aznavour) - 1962))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Yves Stephane - Marcel Stellman
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1960



Though some may reach for the stars
Others will end behind bars
What the future has in store no one ever knows before
Yet we would all like the right to find the key to success
That elusive ray of light that will lead to happiness

Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn
When my luck is returning
All these years I’ve been learning to save fingers from burning
Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn to receive without giving
Make life worth living
Now it’s my life I’m living
My only concern for tomorrow is my turn

Now the summer is gone, there’s another to come
You can’t stop years from drifting by even if you want to try
Though time may help you forget all that has happened before
But honey it’s too late to regret what is gone will be no more

Tomorrow is my turn
When my luck is returning
All these years I’ve been learning to save fingers from burning
Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn to receive without giving
Make life worth living
Now it’s my life I’m living
My only concern for tomorrow is my turn

Basta Um Dia


Basta Um Dia
((Italian Version: Che Lui Mi Dia (Mina))
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
and multiple other artists



Pra mim
Basta um dia
Não mais que um dia
Um meio dia
Me dá
Só um dia
E eu faço desatar
A minha fantasia
Só um
Belo dia
Pois se jura, se esconjura
Se ama e se tortura
Se tritura, se atura e se cura
A dor
Na orgia
Da luz do dia
É só
O que eu pedia
Um dia pra aplacar
Minha agonia
Toda a sangria
Todo o veneno
De um pequeno dia

Só um
Santo dia
Pois se beija, se maltrata
Se como e se mata
Se arremata, se acata e se trata
A dor
Na orgia
Da luz do dia
É só
O que eu pedia, viu
Um dia pra aplacar
Minha agonia
Toda a sangria
Todo o veneno
De um pequeno dia

L'amore


L'amore
Composer(s): Giorgio Calabrese - Charles Aznavour - Georges Garvarentz
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



E' la risposta all'ansietà
Di ogni anima inquieta
Signore dei tuoi giorni
Senza un vero perché
Terra di forza e di dolcezza
Campo di odio e tenerezza
L'amore
E' il punto fermo intorno a cui
Vanno ruotando tutti
Nemico o amico non lo saiu
Che fugge o insegue te
Er privilegi che fa suoi
È l'imboscata in cui cadrai
L'amor, l'amor, l'amor
Questo amor
Non si sa come mnascerà
Nè perché di colpo si spegne
A volte prolunga i tuoi sogni
O abbrevia la vita, chissà
E' questa folle incarnazione
Di un ideale illusorio
Capolavoro e anatomia
Del genio senza età
È piena luce o oscurità
È male ed è necessità
L'amor, l'amor, l'amor
L'amor, l'amor, l'amor
Questo amor

Won't you come and go with me

Where all them characters from the First street they meet

Now ain't you glad you went with me
On down that Mississippi
We took a boat to the land of dreams
Heaven on earth...they call it Basin Street

L'amitié


L'amitié
Composer(s): Jean-Max Rivière - Gérard Bourgeois
First release by: Françoise Hardy - 1965



Beaucoup de mes amis sont venus des nuages
Avec soleil et pluie comme simples bagages
Ils ont fait la saison des amitiés sincères
La plus belle saison des quatre de la terre

Ils ont cette douceur des plus beaux paysages
Et la fidélité des oiseaux de passage
Dans leurs cœurs est gravée une infinie tendresse
Mais parfois dans leurs yeux se glisse la tristesse
Alors, ils viennent se chauffer chez moi
Et toi aussi tu viendras

Tu pourras repartir au fin fond des nuages
Et de nouveau sourire à bien d'autres visages
Donner autour de toi un peu de ta tendresse
Lorsqu'un autre voudra te cacher sa tristesse

Comme l'on ne sait pas ce que la vie nous donne
Il se peut qu'à mon tour je ne sois plus personne
S'il me reste un ami qui vraiment me comprenne
J'oublierai à la fois mes larmes et mes peines
Alors, peut-être je viendrai chez toi
Chauffer mon cœur à ton bois

Basic Protest Song


Basic Protest Song Performer(s): Harry Chapin



Chorus: So you're 13 and there's a silent scream out there And you can hear it Just your basic protest song Now you're 16 and there's a danger in the air And you can see it Just your basic protest song Turnin' 20 and it's around you everywhere And you can feel it Just your basic protest song Now you're 30 and it's too late now to care And you can taste it Just your basic protest song Well, I just turned 13 don't know what I wanna be I don't have much experience but I'll tell you what I see When I hear the record sing and baby, baby I love you It seems to me we all got so much loving left to do And at 16 I don't know too much but I'll tell you what I do know If you do not give a damn I'll tell you where to go There is something truly crazy with our patriotic song We know to wave the flag round the week begins a strong Chorus Oh now that I am 20 got my first full time job My boss, upstanding citizen, finds legal ways to rob They say forget what you believe forget what you have seen But I know I lost the best of me when I forgot my dreams I'm passin' on through 30 got two kids of my own Got a wife, house, a car, and dog but still I am alone And I'm tired of only selling 'cause it's myself that I sell I'm glad of always buying 'cause I can't buy it ourselves I know none of us is perfect I can see myself too well If we can't push for paradise we're settled in for hell Chorus

L'amiral


L'amiral
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



L'Amiral veut couler la flotte
L'Amiral veut tout foutre à l'eau
Depuis qu'il sait que la culotte
De sa femme est comme un drapeau
Qui flotte au vent, qui flotte haut
Au lit de bien des matelots
Tandis qu'il rédige des notes
Assis derrière un grand bureau

Amiral où est la marine?
Dans les dossiers de ton bureau
Les bars du Cap et d'Indochine
L'argent triché dans les tripots
L'alcool de grain
Tout ça, c'est loin
Mais c'était beau
Amiral où est ton bateau

L'Amiral a perdu la tête
L'Amiral a perdu le nord
Il est loin le temps des conquêtes
D'une fille dans chaque port
A quelques nœuds de la retraite
Il a voulu lier son sort
Au sort d'une tendre nymphette
Qui hélas ! a le diable au corps

Amiral la terre était ronde
La tienne est plate et sans grandeur
Il y a tant de femme au monde
Qui pourraient réchauffer ton cœur
Et le remplir
Et de désirs
Et de plaisirs
Et de rumeurs
Amiral où est ton bonheur

L'Amiral a beaucoup de peine
L'Amiral est comme un enfant
Il fait soudain des gestes obscènes
Et dit des mot incohérents
Il rit et pleure à tous moments
Le ministère est sur les dents
Faudrait pas que la presse apprenne
Le sujet est trop important

Amiral largue les amarres
Et joue ta vie comme au poker
Il vaut mieux mourir à la barre
Debout et face à l'univers
Comme un défi
Droit comme un I
Que dans un lit
Froid et désert
Amiral n'oublie pas la mer
