Bébé Soleil


Bébé Soleil Composer(s): Yves Duteil Performer(s): Yves Duteil



J'ai un Bébé Soleil Dans le creux de mes nuits Qui berce mon sommeil Et qui luit Frimousse ébouriffée Qui monte à pas feutrés L'escalier de la chambre l'été J'ai un Bébé Soleil Dans le ciel de ma vie Qui vient dès qu'elle s'éveille Dans mon lit Me raconter ses rêves Et chanter des chansons Blottie contre mon cœur et s'est bon Petit câlin Dès le matin Pour bien entamer la journée Petit bonheur Mon cœur voudrait éclater À l'heure où les enfants Se sont tous endormis Un orage éclatait Dans la nuit Et mon Bébé Soleil Cœur battant sous la pluie Est venue me rejoindre sans bruit Des larmes de frayeur coulaient Sur ses joues sans arrêt C'est fou comme elle tremblait Je lui ai conté les bagarres De ces nuages noirs Quand ils se rencontraient Le jour était levé Quand l'orage a cessé Croissants crème de marrons Pain grillé Le ciel était tout clair Au petit déjeuner Il y avait des éclairs au café Petit plongeon Dans le savon Les crèmes et la mousse à raser Petit bonheur La peur est vite oubliée Petit bonheur Mon cœur voudrait éclater Il me manquait trois mots Pour finir un couplet Tout seul à mon piano Je cherchais J'ai senti qu'elle entrait Sur la pointe des pieds C'est alors qu'elle s'est mise à danser Ses pas volaient sur le tapis Elle éclatait de vie J'étais au Paradis Elle connaissait déjà par cœur Cette chanson d'une heure Et la chantait aussi ... C'est un Bébé Soleil Dans le creux de mes nuits Qui berce mon sommeil Et qui luit Frimousse ébouriffée Qui monte à pas feutrés L'escalier de la chambre l'été ...

Las Llaves De La Casa


Las Llaves De La Casa
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez



No te quiero mirar cuando te vayas
no quiero oir los pasos del olvido
cuando sientas que no soy nada
vete sin despedir yo te lo pido

Quiero tocar la puerta y que no me habras
preguntarle al vecino a donde fuiste
quiero llegar pensando que estas loca
y abajo de la cama te escondiste

Quiero buscarte en todos los rincones
en el cuarto olvidar donde estan mis canciones
en la sala detras de la cortina
en el baño tal vez en al cocina

Y cuando vea que ya no estás conmigo
voy a aventar las llaves de esta casa
encerrado por dentro sin testigos
envuelto entre tu amor y mi desgracia.

Quiero buscarte en todos los rincones
en el cuarto olvidar donde estan mis canciones
en la sala detras de la cortina
en el baño tal vez en al cocina

Y cuando vea que ya no estás conmigo
voy a aventar las llaves de esta casa
encerrado por dentro sin testigos
envuelto entre tu amor y mi desgracia

Las Hojas Verdes


Las Hojas Verdes
((Adapted from: The Green Leaves of Summer (by The Brothers Four) - 1960))
Composer(s): Paul Francis Webster - Dimitri Tiomkin
Performer(s): Dúo Dinámico



La voz de los campos llegó nuevamente
Sentí su llamada, oí su cantar
La canción del verano el hogar me recuerda
Y el verdor de las hojas tu dulce mirar

Llegó la abundancia
Nació la alegría
Y el sol resplandece
Igual mi querer

Nacerán hojas verdes
Nacerán otra vez
Y al cubrir la campiña
Contigo estaré

Llegó la abundancia
Nació la alegría
Y el sol resplandece
Igual mi querer

Nacerán hojas verdes
Nacerán otra vez
Y al cubrir la campiña
Contigo estaré
Contigo estaré

Beauty School Dropout


Beauty School Dropout Composer(s): Warren Casey - Jim Jacobs First release by: Frankie Avalon - 1978 Covered by multiple other artists



Your story's sad to tell
A teenage ne'er do well
Most mixed up young delinquent on the block
Your futures so unclear now
What's left of your career now
Can't even get a trade in on your smile

Beauty school dropout
No graduation day for you
Beauty school dropout
Missed your mid-terms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time to wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to have the doctor fix you nose up

Baby get moving (Better get movin)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive
What are you proving (What are you provin)
You've got the dream but not the drive

If you go for your diploma you will join a steno pool
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to high school

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Hanging around the corner store
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
It's about time you knew the score

Well they couldn't teach you anything you think you're such a looker
But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker

Baby don't sweat it (Don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold a job
Better forget it (Forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob?

Now your bangs are curled your lashes whirled but still the
world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school

Baby don't blow it
Don't put my good advice to shame
Baby you know it
Even Dear Abby'd say the same

Now I've called the shot, get off the block, I really gotta fly
Gotta be going to that malt shop on the sky

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school

The Green Leaves Of Summer


The Green Leaves Of Summer
((Spanish Version: Las Hojas Verdes (by Dúo Dinámico))
Composer(s): Paul Francis Webster - Dimitri Tiomkin
Performer(s): The Brothers Four - 1960
and multiple other artists



A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home
'Twas so good to be young then, in a season of plenty
When the catfish were jumpin' as high as the sky

A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'
A time to be courtin' a girl of your own
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
And to stand by your wife at the moment of birth

A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home
'Twas so good to be young then, with the sweet smell of apples
And the owl in the pine tree a-winkin' his eye

A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'
A time just for livin', a place for to die
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home

'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home

Beauty Is Under The Skin


Beauty Is Under The Skin
Composer(s): Tom Fogerty
Performer(s): Tom Fogerty
and multiple other artists



There's a place where lovers go
To cry their troubles away
And they call it
Lonesome Town
Where the broken hearts stay

You can buy a dream or two
To last you all through the years
And the only price you pay
Is a heart full of tears

Goin' down to Lonesome Town
Where the broken hearts stay
Goin' down to Lonesome Town
To cry my troubles away

In the town of broken dreams
The streets are filled with regret
Maybe down in
Lonesome Town
I can learn to forget
Maybe down in
Lonesome Town
I can learn to forget



Beauty is under the skin, I say
Beauty is under the skin
Don't wanna hear it, but I know it's true
Beauty is under the skin

Cover is holdin' the book, I say
Cover is holdin' the book
Don't wanna hear it, but I know it's true
Cover is holdin' the book

A pretty face is gone in space
A beautiful lady has got my place

Beauty is under the skin, I say
Beauty is under the skin
Don't wanna hear it, but I know it's true
Beauty is under the skin

A pretty face is gone in space
A beautiful lady has got my place

Beauty is under the skin, I say
Beauty is under the skin
Don't wanna hear it, but I know it's true
Beauty is under the skin

Beauty is under the skin
Beauty is under the skin
Beauty is under the skin
Beauty is under the skin

Las Cuatro Y Diez


Las Cuatro Y Diez
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez; Luis Eduardo Aute



Fue en ese cine, te acuerdas
en una mañana al este de Edén
James Dean tiraba piedras
a una casa blanca, entonces te besé
Aquélla fue la primera vez
tus labios parecían de papel
y a la salida en la puerta
nos pidió un triste inspector nuestros carnets
Luego volví a la academia
para no faltar a clase de francés
tú me esperaste hora y media
en esta misma mesa, yo me retrasé

Quieres helado de fresa
o prefieres que te pida ya el café
Cuéntame como te encuentras
aunque sé que me responderás: muy bien
Ten, esta foto es muy fea
el más pequeño acababa de nacer
Oiga, me trae la cuenta
calla, que fui yo quien te invitó a comer
No te demores, no sea
que no llegues a la hora al almacén
Llámame el día que puedas
date prisa que ya son las cuatro y diez

Beauty Is Only Skin Deep


Beauty Is Only Skin Deep Composer(s): Eddie Holland - Norman Whitfield First release by: The Temptations - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists



So in love, sad as could be
'Cause a pretty face got the best of me
Suddenly you came into my life
And gave it meaning and thrill and delight
Now good looks I've learned to do without
'Cause now I know it's love that really counts
'Cause I know
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
I know that beauty's only skin deep
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)

Now you speak your words warm and sincere
It lets me know that your love is dear
A pretty face you may not possess
But what I like about you is your tenderness
A pretty face may sometimes taste
But I'll take lovin' in it's place
'Cause I know
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
I know that beauty's only skin deep
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)

(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)

My friends ask what do I see in you
But it goes deeper than the eye can view
You have a pleasing personality
And that's an ever-livin' rare quality
Now, show me a girl, a girl who looks fine
And I'd choose the one with true lovin' every time
'Cause I know
(Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah)
And I believe you know that beauty's only skin deep
(Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)

So if you're lookin' for a lover
Don't judge a book by its cover
She may be fine on the outside
But so untrue on the inside...

Las Cosas Tienen Movimiento


Las Cosas Tienen Movimiento
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Muchas veces me pregunto
que estamos haciendo aca
dejo de pensar y ve- o que al final
siempre estaras
siempre estaras
en mi
He llegado a no escucharte tocar fondo
tanta inmensidad, perdidos de verdar aqui
y es que siempre estaras
siempre estaras, en mi

Una voz, como un sentimiento
o una cancion
algo mas
que me ayude a despertar
a seguir, a no bajar la guardia
siempre a seguir
no esperes no te enseñaré a vivir

Movimiento, las cosas tienen movimiento
la oportunidad de estar en libertad
es que siempre estaras
siempre estaras en mi
Como un soplo como una lluvia
como un rayo una luna
oxigenaras, mi vida hasta estallar
es que siempre estaras
siempre estaras en mi
Una voz …

Beauty And The Beast


Beauty And The Beast Composer(s): Howard Ashman - Alan Menken First release by: Angela Lansbury - 1991 Covered by multiple other artists Versions In Other Languages: 1991 - La Belle Et La Bête (by Charles Aznavour et Liane Foly) 1998 - Belle En Het Beest (by Sandra Kim & Frank Galan)



Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Oh oh oh ooh

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Oh oh oh

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bitter sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
(certain as the sun)
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast

Beautiful, Unhappy Home


Beautiful, Unhappy Home Composer(s): Teddy Wilburn - Johnny Russell Performer(s): Ernest Tubb & Loretta Lynn



We were proud of this house that we found
On a street in a nice part of town
Had it furnished with care we were once happy here
Now it's a beautiful unhappy home

Planted red sweet hard roses for you
Painted our room your favorite blue
Now, the colors remain but our love's not the same
Oh it's a beautiful unhappy home

What a beautiful unhappy home
It's so hard to believe it's our own
But we're both held here by a child we love dear
In this beautiful unhappy home

Yes we're both held here by a child we love dear
In this beautiful unhappy home
In our beautiful unhappy home

Are My Ears On Straight?


Are My Ears On Straight?
Performer(s): Gayla Peevey



I'm a little doll who was dropped and broken
Falling off my Mommy's knee
I'm a little doll who has just been mended
Now won't you tell me please

Are my ears on straight, is my nose in place
Have I got a cute expression on my face
Are my blue eyes bright, do I look all right
To be taken home Christmas Day

When I first came here, just a month ago
Brought in by a little girl who loved me so
She began to cry, 'til they told her I
Could be taken home Christmas Day

Christmas Eve is drawing nearer, and I'm getting scared
Wish I could see in a mirror, how I've been repaired
I'll be called for soon, but I'm worried so
Will she love me like she did a month ago

Are My Ears On Straight, I can hardly wait
To be taken home Christmas Day

Beautiful Zelda


Beautiful Zelda
Composer(s): Neil Innes
Performer(s): The Bonzo Dog Band



She's broken all the super hearts of the
Super Heroes of the galaxy
So why does she wanna mess around with me?
yeah...

Listen to my story
It's sad but it's true
Please don't laugh, it could happen to you
Beautiful Zelda from Galaxy Four (oh no)
Suddenly walked through my door

Beautiful Zelda, leave me alone
Just get on back to the Twilight Zone
Don't try your jive on a poor Earth boy
'Cause your kind of love don't bring me no joy
(oh no!)

A fourth dimensional space warp brought her to me
Oh yeah
The most beautiful girl I ever did see
Oh yeah
She gave me her hand but when I held her
Oh yeah
I was fooled by the beautiful Zelda

Beautiful Zelda, tell me the truth
I'm just a clean livin' all-Earth youth
Don't try your jive on a poor Earth boy
'Cause your kind of love don't bring me no joy

Beautiful Zelda
Beautiful Zelda

Las Cosas Que Uno Quiere


Las Cosas Que Uno Quiere
Composer(s): Rubén Goldin
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Yo tengo para mis amigos
la libertad
de dejarlos solos cuando quieran
matarse en un recuerdo
Yo quiero para mis amigos
la mejor tierra
un mate calentito en el invierno
y una triguena que les quite el sueño

Y en las tardes mansas
una nueva cancion que hable de ellos
de la gente que uno quiere
de la gente que uno quiere
de la gente que uno quiere
No puedo ver esos muchachos
en la derrota
parados en el medio de la vida
sin saber que hacer

Yo quiero que juntemos nuestras fuerzas
y mueran los miedos
creciendo para arriba sin veneno
como crece el maiz
Esto no es un juego, lo sabemos muy bien
la vida no es una novela
levantamos los brazos hacia el sol
Y en las tardes mansas
una nueva cancion que hable de ellas
de las cosas que uno quiere

Beautiful World


Beautiful World Composer(s): Paul Carrack - T-Bone Wolk Performer(s): Paul Carrack



Beautiful World, you taught me to remember
All the feelings, I lost along the way
I was afraid, alone in my confusion
Running and hiding `stead of living from day to day
When we were walking, we touched the summer flowers
And I saw the wonder, oh in a young child`s eye
Well I looked around and saw how truly grateful
That I should be for all the love I`ve found

Beautiful World well you shook me to my senses
And opened my eyes to the love inside of me
It`s up to me, if I can always believe
In the way I see it now, what a Beautiful World
It would always be

Las Cosas Del Amor


Las Cosas Del Amor
((French & Italian Versions: Les Choses De L'amour (by Dalida); Credo Nell'amore (by Dalida))
Composer(s): Chris Michaelessi - Paul de Senneville - Gefingal
Performer(s): Dalida



Una cita en abril, entre nubes y sol
Esperando feliz, pendiente del reloj
Y juntos otra vez, tratar de descubrir
el cómo y el porqué, me quieres e yo a ti
Mirarnos nada mas, que con el corazón
Andando sin notar, que cae un chaparrón
Volver a recordar, la dulce sensación
Del beso sin final, de aquel primer adiós

Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos
Con gestos y palabras
Las cosas del amor

El sabor del café, que hay que recalentar
Tu sabes bien porqué, en cada despertar
El tren donde te vas, por la primera vez
Que nos horas llenar, de besos el andén
Darte celos por ver, tu desesperación
Abrazarnos después, riéndonos los dos
Reñir sin mas ni mas, sabiendo que otra vez
Podremos disfrutar, la dicha de volver

Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos
Con gestos y palabras
Las cosa del amor

Una cita en Octubre, con el ultimo sol
Del verano que ya, el otoño enfrió
Amarnos otra vez, sintiéndonos tú y yo
Distintos desde ayer, iguales desde hoy
Ver sin ningún temor, el tiempo que se va
Muy juntos al calor, de la felicidad
El niño que a los dos, se nos parecerá
Nos guía con su vez, hacia la eternidad

Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos
Con gestos y palabras
Las cosas del amor
