Blank Generation


Blank Generation
Composer(s): Richard Hell
Performer(s): Richard Hell & the Voidoids
and various other artists



I was sayin' let me out of here before I was
even born--it's such a gamble when you get a face
It's fascinatin to observe what the mirror does
but when I dine it's for the wall that I set a place

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

Triangles were fallin at the window as the doctor cursed
He was a cartoon long forsaken by the public eye
The nurse adjusted her garters as I breathed my first
The doctor grabbed my throat and yelled, "God's consolation prize!"

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

To hold the t.v. to my lips, the air so packed with cash
then carry it up flights of stairs and drop it in the vacant lot
To lose my train of thought and fall into your arms' tracks
and watch beneath the eyelids every passing dot

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the ______ generation but
I can take it or leave it each time top

Luglio


Luglio
Composer(s): Riccardo Del Turco - Giancarlo Bigazzi
First release by: Riccardo Del Turco - 1968

Versions In Other Languages:
1968 - Something Is Happening (by Herman's Hermits)
1968 - Le Petit Pain Au Chocolat (by Joe Dassin)



Luglio, col bene che ti voglio vedrai non finirà
Luglio m'ha fatto una promessa l'amore porterà
Anche tu, in riva al mare tempo fa, amore, amore
mi dicevi: "luglio ci porterà fortuna" poi non ti ho vista più
vieni, da me c'è tanto sole ma ho tanto freddo al cuore
se tu non sei con me

Luglio si veste di novembre se non arrivi tu
Luglio sarebbe un grosso sbaglio non rivedersi più
Ma perché in riva al mare non ci sei, amore, amore
ma perché non torni è luglio da tre giorni
e ancora non sei qui; vieni, da me c'è tanto sole
ma ho tanto freddo al cuore se tu non sei con me

Luglio, stamane al mio risveglio non ci speravo più
Luglio credevo ad un abbaglio e invece ci sei tu
Ci sei tu in riva al mare solo tu, amore, amore
e mi corri incontro ti scusi del ritardo
ma non mi importa più
Luglio ha ritrovato il sole non ho più freddo al cuore
perché tu sei con me

Something Is Happening


Something Is Happening
((Adapted from: Luglio (by Riccardo Del Turco) - 1968))
((French Version: Le Petit Pain Au Chocolat (by Joe Dassin) - 1968))
Composer(s): Riccardo Del Turco - Giancarlo Bigazzi - Jack Fishman
Performer(s): Herman's Hermits - 1968



Something is happening
And it started happening when you walked by
Something is happening
And it's changing everything do you know why?

As soon as you started to kiss me
Something new suddenly hit me
Love walked over, it's always happening
The same sort of things to others too
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Something is happening
Exiting, bewildering you must know why
Something is happening
I can't think of anything but you and I

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

What begins, these happy notions
You do things to my emotions
I can't help whatever is happening
There's nothing about it I can do
Something is happening to me
And I only hope the same thing is happening to you

Blanche


Blanche
Composer(s): John Cutrone; Chris Starpoli;
Joe Francavilla; Anthony Grochowoki
Performer(s): Three Friends



(Oooooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah-aah)
(Oooooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-aah-aah)

This is a story of a boy and a girl
How they both lived together
In there own private world
The boy's name was Billy
The girl's name was Blanche
Once it happened, one day they took a chance

I took a walk one day with Blanche
Along the avenue of love and romance
And I decided that I'd take chance
Just to see how happy life would be (Life would be)
If only Blanche and me

We strolled apart one afternoon
But our parting came a little too soon
And now I'm dreaming of Blanche by the Moon
She's the girl for me
(She's the girl for me)

Can't you see that I love her
What more can I ask from heaven above
If I lose her, I lose my own, my only love

Now there is something that you can't deny
Love is something that money cannot buy
And now I'm dreaming of Blanche by the Moon
Shes the girl for me-ee-ee-eeee

She's the girl for me
(She's the girl for me)

Le Petit Oiseau De Toutes Les Couleurs


Le Petit Oiseau De Toutes Les Couleurs
Composer(s): Maurice Vidalin - Gilbert Bécaud
Performer(s): Gilbert Bécaud



Ce matin je sors de chez moi
Il m'attendait, il était là
Il sautillait sur le trottoir
Mon Dieu, qu'il était drôle à voir
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs

Ça f'sait longtemps que j'n'avais pas vu
Un petit oiseau dans ma rue
Je ne sais pas ce qui m'a pris
Il faisait beau, je l'ai suivi
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs

Où tu m'emmènes, dis
Où tu m'entraînes, dis
Va pas si vite, dis
Attends-moi!
Comm' t'es pressé, dis
T'as rendez-vous, dis
Là où tu vas, dis
J'vais avec toi

On passe devant chez Loucho
Qui me fait Hé! qui me fait Ho!
Je ne me suis pas arrêté
Pardon, l'ami, je cours après
Un p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs
Un p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs

Sur l'avenue, je l'ai plus vu
J'ai cru que je l'avais perdu
Mais je l'ai entendu siffler
Et c'était lui qui me cherchait
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs

Où tu m'emmènes, dis
Où tu m'entraînes, dis
Va pas si vite, dis
Attends-moi!
Comm' t'es pressé, dis
T'as rendez-vous, dis
Là où tu vas, dis
J'vais avec toi

On est arrivé sur le port
Il chantait de plus en plus fort
S'est retourné, m'a regardé
Au bout d'la mer s'est envolé

J'peux pas voler, dis
J'peux pas nager, dis
J'suis prisonnier, dis
M'en veux pas
Et bon voyage, dis
Reviens-moi vite, dis
Le p'tit oiseau de toutes les couleurs

Bon voyage!
Reviens vite, dis!
Bon voyage!

Blame The Weather


Blame The Weather
Composer(s): Colin Moulding
Performer(s): XTC



When your love's flown out the window
And the pain comes through the door
Once again you've missed the boat
And you're stranded on the shore
And you find out that what you had
Was never yours at all
Friends and lovers that you knew so well
Will never take your calls

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?
You're turning creases into lines

If you play the game
You've got to be prepared to take a knock
You get put down so many times
But you keep on getting up
So put your tears away
And don't forget to worry is a crime
Nothing bears thinking about too much
You'll be old before your time

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?
You're turning creases into lines

The pool of tears you left to drown in
The helping hands that never came
The years you lost out to another
All up in flames

So
You blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Blame the weather
Oh-oh
Can't you see you're in your prime?

Le Petit Nicolas


Le Petit Nicolas
Composer(s): Michael Jourdan - Michel Fugain
Performer(s): Michel Fugain



Le petit Nicolas vient de s'endormir en classe
C'est la énième fois que le sommeil le terrasse
Pendant ce temps le professeur d'histoire
Parle de nos plus glorieuses victoires

Le petit Nicolas est très loin dans son beau rêve
Ce petit garçon là est le plus mauvais élève
Mais il est seul en ballon dirigeable
D'en haut son école est un grain de sable

Maintenant le voilà qui tourne sur un manège
Et son cheval de bois l'emporte vers la Norvège
Il voit des fleurs grandes comme des arbres
Des sucres d'orge et des palais de marbre

Le petit Nicolas est maintenant chef d'orchestre
Il est à l'opéra et dirige à la baguette
Son professeur joue de la contrebasse
Et ça fait rire les copains de sa classe

Nicolas

Mais une grosse voix soudain le réveille en sursaut
Pour la énième fois Nicolas vient d'avoir un zéro

Blame It On The Sun


Blame It On The Sun
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder; Syreeta Wright
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder
and various other artists



Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away

Where is my spirit?
I’m nowhere near it
Oh yes, my love has gone astray

But I’ll blame it on the sun
The sun that didn’t shine
I’ll blame it on the wind and the trees

I’ll blame it on the time that never was enough
I’ll blame it on the tide and the sea
But, my heart blames it on me

Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?

Wish I could tell you
But, words won’t come for me to speak

But I’ll blame it on the sun
That didn’t fill the sky
I’ll blame it on the birds and the trees

I’ll blame it on the day that ended once too soon
I’ll blame it on the nights that could not be
But, my heart blames it on me

yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh
Your heart blames it on you this time

Le Petit Monsieur Triste


Le Petit Monsieur Triste
Composer(s): Raymond Asso - Marguerite Monnot
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
and multiple other artists



Le petit monsieur triste
Qui ne sort que la nuit
A de très gros ennuis
Mais c'est un égoïste
Il les garde pour lui
Et tous les gros ennuis
Du petit monsieur triste
Le suivent dans la nuit
Courent derrière lui
Galopent sur la piste
Du petit monsieur triste
Qui a des tas d'ennuis

Le petit monsieur triste
A beaucoup de chagrin
Sa femme aimait Chopin
Lui n'était pas pianiste
Et le regrettait bien
Or, sa femme, un matin
Suivit un grand pianiste
Qui jouait du Chopin
Pour faire du chagrin
Au petit monsieur triste
Qui n'était pas pianiste
Et le regrettait bien

Alors, mélancolique
Et le cœur tout meurtri
Il ramena chez lui
Un piano mécanique
Pour calmer ses ennuis
Et puis il revendit
Cette boîte à musique
Qui faisait trop de bruit
Et jouait dans la nuit
Comme une mécanique
Des airs mélancoliques
Qui doublaient ses ennuis

Le petit monsieur triste
Qui ne sort que la nuit
Car le sommeil le fuit
Boit seul, en égoïste
Pour noyer ses ennuis
Il boit toute la nuit
Le petit monsieur triste
Puis il rentre chez lui
Et, seul, dans son grand lit
Le petit monsieur triste
Rêve qu'il est pianiste
Et qu'il n'a plus d'ennuis

Il rêve d'un joli piano
Sur lequel il ferait des gammes
De belles gammes pour sa femme
Do Ré Mi Fa Sol La Si Do
Dodo

Blame It On The Stones


Blame It On The Stones
Composer(s): Kris Kristofferson
Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson



Mister Marvin Middle Class is really in a stew
Wond'rin' what the younger generation's coming to
And the taste of his martini doesn't please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Mother tells the ladies at the bridge club every day
Of the rising price of tranquilizers she must pay
And she wonders why the children never seem to stay at home
Blame it on the Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better, knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; save the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Father's at the office, nightly working all the time
Trying to make the secretary change her little mind
And it bothers him to read about so many broken homes
Blame it on those Rolling Stones

Blame it on the Stones; Blame it on the Stones
You'll feel so much better knowing you don't stand alone
Join the accusation; same the bleeding nation
Get it off your shoulders; blame it on the Stones

Blame it on the stones, blame it on the stones

Petit Lascar


Petit Lascar
Composer(s): Whipper Snapper - Leiberm Stopper
Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan



Franck
C'est un drôle de petit lascar
Il a toujours les yeux hagards
C'est un drôle de petit loustic
Il a toujours les doigts pleins de tics
C'est un gars très sympa mais voilà
Ses voisins ne l'aiment pas

Il a un drôles de falzar
Il porte un vieux blouson noiraud
Au juke-box il donne tout son fric
Il s'agite comme un moustique
C'est un gars très sympa mais voilà
Ses voisins ne l'aiment pas

Car il aime le rock
C'est ça qui les choque
C'est ce qui met en rage
Tous les gens du voisinage

C'est un drôle de petit lascar
Il a toujours les yeux hagards
C'est un gars très sympa mais voilà
Ses voisins ne l'aiment pas

Les gens disent qu'il a l'air louche
Mais y'ferait pas de mal à une mouche
Et si il tape sur des casseroles
C'est parce qu'il aime le rock'n roll
C'est un gars très sympa mais voilà
Ses voisins ne l'aiment pas

Blame It On The Pony Express


Blame It On The Pony Express
Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenaway; Tony Macaulay
Performer(s): Johnny Johnson & The Bandwagon;
Bobby Sherman



It's been a while since you left St. Joe and still
I tell myself you gotta feel the same way
I'll get a letter very soon I know
so I call in each day and ask about the relay, and they say...

There's nothin' I can do if it don't get through
Just blame it on the pony express
There's nothin' I can say if it goes astray
Blame it on the pony express

I only pray that the long delay doesn't mean
I've lost the heart I had a claim on
But if they stay on a homeward trail
I know there's gonna be a letter with my name on
How can I go on?

There's nothin' I can do if it don't get through
I'm gonna blame it on the pony express
There's nothin' I can say if it goes astray
Why don't you blame it on the pony express?

Honey if you're lonely, blame it on the pony express

Cherokee, Pawnee, Navajo Indian
It's such along way from St. Joe to Sacramento
I'm tryin' not to worry, but my heart is in a hurry
So write just as fast as you can

There's nothin' I can do if it don't get through
Blame it on the pony express
There's nothin' I can say if it goes astray
Just blame it on the pony express

Well, there's nothin' I can do if it don't get through
Why don'tcha blame it on the pony express
I said there's nothin' I can say if it goes astray
Why don't I blame it on the pony express

Well, there's nothin' I can do if it don't get through
Just blame it on the pony express
I said there's nothin' I can say if it goes astray
I'm gonna blame it on the pony express

Le Petit Joueur De Flûteau


Le Petit Joueur De Flûteau
((Italian Version: Il Menestrello (by Nanni Svampa) - 2004))
Composer(s): Georges Brassens
First release by: Georges Brassens - 1963



Le petit joueur de flûteau
Menait la musique au château
Pour la grâce de ses chansons
Le roi lui offrit un blason
Je ne veux pas être noble
Répondit le croque-note
Avec un blason à la clé
Mon la se mettrait à gonfler
On dirait par tout le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi

Et mon pauvre petit clocher
Me semblerait trop bas perché
Je ne plierais plus les genoux
Devant le bon Dieu de chez nous
Il faudrait à ma grande âme
Tous les saints de Notre-Dame
Avec un évêque à la clé
Mon la se mettrait à gonfler
On dirait par tout le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi

Et la chambre où j'ai vu la jour
Me serait un triste séjour
Je quitterai mon lit mesquin
Pour une couche à baldaquin
Je changerais ma chaumière
Pour une gentilhommière
Avec un manoir à la clé
Mon la se mettrait à gonfler
On dirait par tout le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi

Je serai honteux de mon sang
Des aïeux de qui je descends
On me verrait bouder dessus
La branche dont je suis issu
Je voudrais un magnifique
Arbre généalogique
Avec du sang bleu a la clé
Mon la se mettrait à gonfler
On dirait par tout le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi

Je ne voudrais plus épouser
Ma promise, ma fiancée
Je ne donnerais pas mon nom
À une quelconque Ninon
Il me faudrait pour compagne
La fille d'un grand d'Espagne
Avec un' princesse à la clé
Mon la se mettrait à gonfler
On dirait par tout le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi

Le petit joueur de flûteau
Fit la révérence au château
Sans armoiries, sans parchemin
Sans gloire il se mit en chemin
Vers son clocher, sa chaumine
Ses parents et sa promise
Nul ne dise dans le pays
Le joueur de flûte a trahi
Et Dieu reconnaisse pour sien
Le brave petit musicien

Blame It On The Bossa Nova


Blame It On The Bossa Nova
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Annette Funicello and various other artists



I was at a dance when she caught my eyes
Standin' all alone lookin' sad and shy
We began to dance swayin' to and from
And soon I knew I'd never let her go

Blame it on the bossa nova
With its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova
That she did so well
Oh it all began with just one little dance
But soon it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love

Now was it the moon
No,no, the bossa nova
Or the stars above
No,no, the bossa nova
Now was it the time
Yeh,yeh, the bossa nova
The dance of love

Now that little girl is my bride to be
And we're gonna raise a family
And when our kids ask how it came about
I'm gonna say to them without a doubt

Blame it on the bossa nova
With its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova
That she did so well
Oh it all began with just one little dance
But soon it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love.....

Le Petit Jardin


Le Petit Jardin
Composer(s): Jacques Dutronc - Jacques Lanzmann
Performer(s): Jacques Dutronc; Jesse Garon



C'était un petit jardin
Qui sentait bon le Métropolitain
Qui sentait bon le bassin parisien
C'était un petit jardin
Avec une table et une chaise de jardin
Avec deux arbres, un pommier et un sapin
Au fond d'une cour à la Chaussée-d'Antin

Mais un jour près du jardin
Passa un homme qui au revers de son veston
Portait une fleur de béton
Dans le jardin une voix chanta

De grâce, de grâce, monsieur le promoteur
De grâce, de grâce, préservez cette grâce
De grâce, de grâce, monsieur le promoteur
Ne coupez pas mes fleurs

C'était un petit jardin
Qui sentait bon le Métropolitain
Qui sentait bon le bassin parisien
C'était un petit jardin
Avec un rouge-gorge dans son sapin
Avec un homme qui faisait son jardin
Au fond d'une cour à la Chaussée-d'Antin

Mais un jour près du jardin
Passa un homme qui au revers de son veston
Portait une fleur de béton
Dans le jardin une voix chanta

De grâce, de grâce, monsieur le promoteur
De grâce, de grâce, préservez cette grâce
De grâce, de grâce, monsieur le promoteur
Ne coupez pas mes fleurs

C'était un petit jardin
Qui sentait bon le Métropolitain
À la place du joli petit jardin
Il y a l'entrée d'un souterrain
Où sont rangées comme des parpaings
Les automobiles du centre urbain

C'était un petit jardin
Au fond d'une cour à la Chaussée-d'Antin
C'était un petit jardin
Au fond d'une cour à la Chaussée-d'Antin

Blame It On The Boogie


Blame It On The Boogie
Composer(s): M. Jackson; D. Jackson; E. Krohn
Performer(s): The Jacksons
and various other artists



My baby's always dancing
And it wouldn't be a bad thing
But I don't get no loving
And that's no lie

We spent the night in Frisco
At every kind of disco
From that night I kissed
Our love goodbye

Don't blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

Don't you blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

That nasty boogie bugs me
But somehow it has drugged me
Spellbound rhythm get me
On my feet

I've changed my life completely
I've seen the lightning leave me
My baby just can't take
Her eyes off me

Don't blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

Don't you blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

I just can't
I just can't
I just can't control myself

I just can't
I just can't
I just can't control myself...

Don't blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

Don't you blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

This magic music grooves me
That dirty rhythm moves me
The devil's gotten to me
Through this dance

I'm full of funky fever
A fire burns inside me
Boogie's got me in a
Super trance

Don't blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

Don't you blame it on sunshine
Don't blame it on moonlight
Don't blame it on good times
Blame it on the boogie

Sunshine
Moonlight
Good times
Boogie

Sunshine
Moonlight
Good times
Boogie

Don't you blame it
You just got to
You just want to
Yea

Blame it on yourself
Ain't nobody's fault
But yours and that boogie
Dancing all night long

Yours and that boogie
Ain't nobody's fault
But yours
Dancing all night long

Le Petit Homme Et Le Grand Homme


Le Petit Homme Et Le Grand Homme
Composer(s): Georges Moustaki
Performer(s): Georges Moustaki



Le petit homme
Portait un uniforme
Et des souliers vernis

Le grand homme allait les pieds nus

Le petit homme
Serrait dans ses poings
La crosse d'un fusil

Le grand homme avait les mains nues

Le petit homme
Portait dans son sac
Les oiseaux qu'il avait tués

Le grand homme ramassait des fruits

Le petit homme
Marchait sur l'asphalte
Des routes bien tracées

Le grand homme allait à travers champs

Ils auraient pu ne jamais se rencontrer
Pourtant, un jour les deux routes se croisèrent

Le petit homme prit peur et recula
Il arma son fusil

Le grand homme en souriant tendit les mains vers lui...

Et le coup partit

Blame It On My Youth


Blame It On My Youth
Composer(s): Edward Heyman; Oscar Levant
Originally performed by: Nat King Cole
Covered by various other artists



You were my adored one
Then you became the bored one
I was like a toy
That brought you joy one day
A broken toy
That you preferred to throw away
If I expected love
When we first kissed
Blame it on my youth
If only just for you I did exist
Blame it on my youth
I believed in everything
Like a child of three
You meant more than anything
All the world to me
If you were on my mind
All night and day
Blame it on my youth
If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray
Blame it on my youth
If I cried a little bit
When first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on the stars
Don't blame it on your smile
Don't blame it on my eyes
Blame it on my youth
