L'uomo
L'uomo
Performer(s): Francesco Guccini
Senza l'ultima parola
frase saggia da citarsi
piegò il capo sul cuscino
quasi per addormentarsi
senza un grido, senza un nome
senza motti, senza un suono
né rumori di battaglie era morto un altro uomo
Restò solo qualcosa che volò
nell'aria calma e poi svanì
per dove non sapremo mai
C'era buio nella stanza
di malato un greve odore
e una lieve pazza danza di mosconi in amore
Lievi ronzan le preghiere
poi qualcuno se n'è accorto
si alzò atroce nella sera
solo un chiaro grido "E' morto!"
Restò solo qualcosa che volò
nell'aria calma e poi svanì
per dove non sapremo mai
Svelti accorrono gli astanti
"Com'è morto? Com'è andata?"
sfrigolava ormai sui pianti
la candela già bruciata
Gli composero le braccia
si riavviò la rada chioma
ondeggiava sulla faccia
del rosario la corona
Restò solo qualcosa che volò
nell'aria calma e poi svanì
per dove non sapremo mai
Si frugò dentro ai ricordi
di una vita ormai finita
si guardò dentro ai cassetti
colmi di carta ingiallita
Questa foto è per la figlia
l'orologio qui a chi tocca?
meglio gli chiudiate gli occhi
meglio chiudergli la bocca
Restò solo qualcosa che volò
nell'aria calma e poi svanì
per dove non sapremo mai
Si riuniscono i parenti
si rincorrono i ricordi
già si parla delle spese
già si senton pianti sordi
Qualche spicciolo lasciato
provocò parole accese
che volarono sul letto
e copriron le candele
Restò solo qualcosa che volò
nell'aria calma e poi svanì
per dove non sapremo mai
Uno schiaffo fa tacere
anche i giochi dei bambini
sono calate le serrande
neri sfilano i vicini
Le ghirlande hanno gettato
la tristezza sulle scale
fra i parenti addolorati
se ne scende il funerale
Restò ...
Una vita, quante cose
dice il prete in due parole
Lo ringraziano gli astanti
via l'inverno, c'è già il sole
Chiacchiere, risate lievi
vanno per il cimitero
restan fiori con le scritte
resta al vento un drappo nero
Restò ...

Moonchild
Moonchild
Composer(s): Robert Fripp; Michael Giles;
Greg Lake; Ian McDonald; Peter Sinfield
Performer(s): King Crimson
Call her moonchild
Dancing in the shallows of a river
Lonely moonchild
Dreaming in the shadow
of the willow
Talking to the trees of the
cobweb strange
Sleeping on the steps of a fountain
Waving silver wands to the
night-birds song
Waiting for the sun on the mountain
She's a moonchild
Gathering the flowers in a garden
Lovely moonchild
Drifting on the echoes of the hours
Sailling on the wind
in a milk white gown
Dropping circle stones on a sun dial
Playing hide and seek
with the ghosts of dawn
Waiting for a smile from a sun child

Lune Rouge
Lune Rouge
Composer(s): J.P. Blanc - H. Grant
Performer(s): Nicoletta
Dans ton ventre arrondi, tu m'as appris
À ne pas m'effrayer dans le noir
Tu murmurais des mélodies
Des berceuses prémonitoires
Plus personne ne venait sur tes genoux
À la maison, même les chats filaient doux
Avec mon père, vous dormiez serrés ensemble
Afin que je grandisse et que je lui ressemble
Tu mangeais du poisson de rivière
Pour que je puisse me glisser
Avec vivacité
De l'eau vers la lumière
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Ma naissance a eu lieu à la pointe du jour
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Petits pieds nus langés d'argile, langés d'amour
Mes frères ont attendu chez les voisins
Mon père caressait doucement ton ventre
Mammie conjurait l'incertain
La sage femme était patiente
Aussi tendue qu'un cheval sauvage
Des mains tentaient de te maintenir sage
Comme un rubis qui, de sa gangue, jaillit
Je suis venue au monde en poussant un long cri
Avec un canif à faire les flûtes
T'as coupé, en ancienne
Pour que je sois musicienne
Le cordon d'un coup brut
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Ma naissance a eu lieu à la pointe du jour
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Petits pieds nus langés d'argile, langés d'amour
Quoiqu'il arrive, enroulé dans mon cœur
Un grand chemin d'amertume, en douceur
M'amènera toujours vers la même maison
Où le ciel et la terre sont le sang de ton nom
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Ma naissance a eu lieu à la pointe du jour
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Petits pieds nus langés d'argile, langés d'amour
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Ma naissance a eu lieu à la pointe du jour
Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge, Lune Rouge
Petits pieds nus langés d'argile, langés d'amour

Moonburn
Moonburn
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Edward Heyman
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and various other artists
Now, if you're thinkin' that I'm lookin' somewhat tanner
Don't go blamin' it on the sun
It's the moonlight and the sweetness in your manner
That's makin' me the healthy one
When the moon hangs low, I begin to glow
And my day has just begun
I'm gonna get a moonburn when I'm with you tonight
So very soon, I'll moonburn when you hold me tight
I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
What your lips will impart
And when they flash the word that you love me
You know it's gonna warm my heart
I'll get a brand new moonburn with every kiss from you
And if I have my way, get my say, you'll get a moonburn, too
Oh, I'm catchin' me some moonburn, when I getcha alone with me tonight
So very soon, I'll moonburn when you hold me tight
I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
Tell, me what your lips will impart
And when they flash the word that you love me
Ooh, it'll warm my heart
I'm get me a brand new kind of a moonburn
With ev'ry kiss I get from you
And if I get my way, get my say, you'll get a moonburn, too
Keep under cover, you'll get a moonburn, too

Lunch Break: Peak Hour
Lunch Break: Peak Hour
Composer(s): John Lodge - Peter Knight
Performer(s): The Moody Blues; London Festival Orch.; Peter Knight
I see it all through my window it seems
Never failing, like millions of bees
Pull out the drawer, no time to be won
Only to do, what can be done?
Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour
Minds are subject to what should be done
Problem solved, time cannot be won
One hour a day, one hour a night
She's trying to be, ooh
Home, in full flight
Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour
It makes me want to run out
And tell them, they've got time
Take a step back out and look in
I've found out, I've got time
Minds are subject to what should be done
Problem solved, time cannot be won
One hour a day, one hour a night
She's trying to be, ooh
Home, in full flight
Peak hour, peak hour, peak hour

Moon Song
Moon Song
Composer(s): Sam Coslow; Arthur Johnston
Originally performed by: Kate Smith
Covered by various other artists
It came from nowhere the night that we met
Was like a melodious plea
Sweet moon song
That wasn’t meant for me
Why is it always reminding me of
A love dream that never could be
Sweet moon song
That wasn’t meant for me
It came gliding into my heart riding
on a moon beam from above
Sorrow ended and the whole world blended
In a rhapsody of love; then
I heard her singing to somebody else
What I thought was my melody
Sweet moon song
That wasn’t meant for me

Lunatic Asylum
Lunatic Asylum
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Le petit lapin de Playboy ronge mon crâne végétal
Shoe shine boy
Oh Marilou petit chou
Qui me roulait entre ses doigts comme du caporal
Me suçotait comme un cachou
Et savait le dialecte chou
Poupoupidou
Tu sais ma Lou
Dans cette blanche clinique
Neuropsychiatrique
A force de patience et d'inaction
J'ai pu dresser un hanneton
Sur ma tête héliport
L'hélicoléoptère
De ses élytres d'or
Refermant l'habitacle
Incline ses antennes
Porteuses d'sos
Mais merde les phalènes
Frémissantes de stress
Interceptent en vol ...
Mes signaux de détresse
Manque de bol
Les parasites de Radio Pou
On brouillé mes messages fou
Que j'étais de toi Marilou

Originally performed by: Cat Stevens
Covered by various other artists
Yes I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
And if I ever lose my hands
Lose my plough, lose my land
Oh if I ever lose my hands
Oh if
I won't have to work no more
And if I ever lose my eyes
If my colors all run dry
Yes if I ever lose my eyes
Oh if
I won't have to cry no more
Yes I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
And if I ever lose my legs
I won't moan and I won't beg
Oh if I ever lose my legs
Oh if
I won't have to walk no more
And if I ever lose my mouth
All my teeth, North and South
Oh if I ever lose my mouth
Oh if
I won't have to talk
"Did it take long to find me?"
I asked the faithful light
"Did it take long to find me?
And are you gonna stay the night?"
I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow

Yo quisiera contar una historia de amor
la historia de la luna que nos hace soñar
Luna, luna, luna mi compañera fiel

Piensa que tú en el olvido
también has sufrido
desdenes del sol

Mira lunita querida mi vida no es vida
si está sin amor
Piensa que tú en el olvido
también has sufrido
desdenes del sol
Luna, luna, luna en donde está mi amor

Luna Tucumana
Composer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui
Performer(s): Mercedes Sosa
and multiple other artists
Yo no le canto a la luna
porque alumbra y nada más
le canto porque ella sabe
de mi largo caminar
Ay lunita tucumana!
tamborcito calchaquí
compañera de los gauchos
en las sendas de Tafí
Perdido en las cerrazones
¿quién sabe, vidita, por dónde andaré?
Mas cuando salga la luna
cantaré, cantaré
a mi Tucumán querido
cantaré, cantaré, cantaré
Con esperanza o con pena
en los campos de Acheral
yo he visto a la luna buena
besando el cañaveral
En algo nos parecemos
luna de la soledad
yo voy andando y cantando
que es mi modo de alumbrar
Perdido en las cerrazones ...

Originally performed by: Henry Mancini
Covered by various other artists
Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossin' you in style someday
Old dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waitin' round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon River and me

Luna Rossa (Blushing Moon)
Composer(s): Kermit Goell
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
Oh luna rossa, you're out tonight
A moon of red in a sky of white
Because I'm selling a lie tonight
And blushing moon, you know of it
Oh luna rossa, you're smart at love
You know I'm playing the part of love
I try my hand in the art of love
Just for the thrill and glow of it
Luna rossa, forgive me, luna rossa
For the vows I made tonight that are untrue
What else am I to do?
But blushing moon, there's a reason why
The love I longed for has passed me by
And so I play at the game but I
I am lonely, luna rossa
Luna rossa, forgive me, luna rossa
For the vows I made tonight that are untrue
What else am I to do?
But blushing moon, there's a reason why
The love I longed for has passed me by
And so I play at the game but I
I am lonely, luna rossa
I am lonely, luna rossa

Moon Over Miami
Composer(s): Edgar Leslie; Joe Burke
Performer(s): Eddy Duchin
and various other artists
Moon over Miami
Shine on my love and me
So we can stroll beside the roll
Of the rolling sea
Moon over Miami
Shine on as we begin
A dream or two that may come true
When the tide comes in
Hark to the song of the smiling troubadours
Hark to the throbbing guitars
Hear how the waves offer thunderous applause
After each song to the stars
Moon over Miami
You know we're waiting for
A little love, a little kiss
On Miami shore

Moon Over Bourbon Street
Moon Over Bourbon Street
Composer(s): Sting
Performer(s): Sting
and various other artists
There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight
I've no choice but to follow that call
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all
I pray everyday to be strong
For I know what I do must be wrong
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street
It was many years ago that I became what I am
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb
Now I can never show my face at noon
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street
She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans
She's innocent and young from a family of means
I have stood many times outside her window at night
To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight
How could I be this way when I pray to god above
I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Ça f' sait bien trois cent soixante cinq jours de long
Que j' vissais toujours le même sacré petIt boulon
Mais celà ne m' empêche pas de chanter

Je vais tout droit à Luna Park
Dans le jour cru des lampes à arcs
Sur la chenille
Je vois des filles
Je vois les filles et leurs dessous
En soie en fil ou en pilou
Et le pick-up chante comme moi
HidIele hidlele hideledele hey!
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Le travail c' est ahurissant
Pour le corps c' est bien salissant
Quand je touche ma paye vers la fin du mois
Je sais qu' à Puteaux y' a des gars plus riches que moi
Mais celà ne m' empêche pas de chanter
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Luna-Park est ma réserve de gaité
Hidlete hidlele hideledele
À tous les stands je suis salué

Garçons et filles
C' est ma famille
Partout ailleurs je n' suis rien
À Luna Park je suis quelqu' un
Vive Luna Park et vive la joie
