Squank


Squank
Composer(s): Billy Gibbons - Bill Ham - Dusty Hill
Performer(s): ZZ Top



Woman, grab your children, run and hide
Don't let it catch up with you
You gotta fight it to stay alive
and if it gets you, man, you're through

It smells so rotten and rank
Well, everybody calls it the squank

It's sick, depressin, gettin' bigger all the time
Don't help it any way you can
It's grey and brown and sometimes lime
and it's spreadin' all over the land

And soon we'll be all breathin' out of tanks
if somethin' ain't done about the squank

The meanest thing the world's ever bred
by me and you and my kinfold too
A monster can't live unless it's fed
and it's being fed by me and you
And soon it's gonna leave the world blank
and we'll all be erased by the squank

Here Comes The Flood


Here Comes The Flood
German Title: Jetzt Kommt Die Flut
Composer(s): Peter Gabriel
Performer(s): Peter Gabriel;
and various other artists



When the night shows
the signals grow on radios
All the strange things
they come and go, as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction we cannot even choose a side

I took the old track
the hollow shoulder, across the waters
On the tall cliffs
they were getting older, sons and daughters
The jaded underworld was riding high
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
and as the nail sunk in the cloud, the rain was warm and soaked the crowd

Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
and any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry

When the flood calls
You have no home, you have no walls
In the thunder crash
You're a thousand minds, within a flash
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
The act is gone, there's only you and me
And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be

Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again, the seas are silent
and any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry

The Image Of You


The Image Of You
Composer(s): Edmond Zhulali - Xhuli Teilor
First performance by: Anjeza Shahini - 2004



How strange the feeling in your soul
When love invades your very being
Another me or so I'm told
And life takes on another meaning

Day after day, I go through the motions
Stumbling my way, life is a blur
Slave of my love, of my emotions
You're in my eyes, you're in my heart

One kiss, one heart in time
A kiss, the moment is mine
I close my eyes, I breathe
I'm queen of the world of make-believe

You make me feel a little crazy
You make me see your tears are true
You make my days and nights so hazy
You make me feel the image of you

You make me feel a little crazy
You make me see your tears are true
You make my days and nights so hazy
You make me feel the image of you

(You make me feel a little crazy)
(You make me see...)

One kiss, one heart in time
A kiss, the moment is mine
I close my eyes, I breathe
I'm queen of the world of make-believe

You make me feel a little crazy
You make me see your tears are true
You make my days and nights so hazy
You make me feel the image of you

You make me feel a little crazy
You make me see your tears are true
You make my days and nights so hazy
You make me feel the image of you

(You make me feel) a little crazy
(You make me see) your tears are true
(You make me feel) image of you

I know it's just a dream
I feel I love this life
I know it's just a dream
I feel I love this life

Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again


Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again
Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenaway; Tony Macaulay
Performer(s): The Fortunes;
Lee Newman; Andy Williams



Here comes that rainy day feeling again
and soon my tears will be falling like rain...

It always seems to be a Monday
Leftover memories of Sunday always spent with you
Before the clouds appeared, and took away my sunshine

Here comes that rainy day feeling again
and I'll be dreaming of you baby in vain

Your face is always on my mind, girl
I'm hoping you're soon gonna find, girl, your way back to me
'cause if you'll say you'll stay
the rainy days will go away...

Here comes that rainy day feeling again
and soon my tears will be falling like rain

Misty morning eyes, I'm trying to disguise the way I feel
But I just can't hide it
People seem to know, the loneliness will show
I'm thinking of my pride, but breaking up inside, girl

Whoa, here comes that rainy day feeling again
And soon my tears, they will be falling like rain
It always seems to be a monday
Left over memories of sunday, always spent with you
before the clouds appeared, and took away my sunshine

Here comes that rainy day feeling again.....

Springtime Reminds Me Of You


Springtime Reminds Me Of You
Composer(s): D. Carter - Fritz Rotter - Walter Jurmann
Performer(s): Al Bowlly



The trees and the flowers bring back all those hours
And the springtime reminds me of you
The song of a bird recalls every word
And tells of the joys we knew
Though we laughed for a while, too soon we had to part
And your song and your smile are forever in my heart
For the blue of the skies is the blue of your eyes
And the springtime reminds me of you

Here Comes That Feeling


Here Comes That Feeling
Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette; Joe Osborne
Performer(s): Brenda Lee; El Perro del Mar



Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right
That lonely feeling that came to me last night
It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend
Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again

I saw you last night, in a drive-in way downtown
Locked in her arms, you didn't know I'd be around
Alone in my room, I remember where you've been
Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again

I've gotta get rid of this lonely feeling
(Lonely feeling)
That makes me feel the way I do when a day is done
(Day is done)
Someday you're gonna know what it means to be lonesome
(To be lonesome)
You're gonna want me back while I'm having fun

Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right
That lonely feeling that came to me last night
It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend
Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again

Oh, I'm so lonely
Mmm, I feel that feeling
And it's hurting me, mmm...

Without You (Re-Union)


Without You
Composer(s): Ed van Otterdijk - Angeline van Otterdijk
First performance by: Re-Union - 2004



Ooh... (ooh...)
Ooh...
Ooh... (ooh...)
Ooh... (ooh yeah)

I spent my life in search for you
Not knowing what to find
Still wonder how did I pull through
Without you on my mind

Friends tell me you're no good for me
I'll show them all they're wrong
'Cause you are everything to me
It never felt so strong

Without you...
Nothing can turn out right
I lie awake all night
Without you...
I keep calling your name
My life can never be the same

You are a miracle to me
Your face I can't forget (face I can't forget)
I just feel we are bound to be
From the moment that we met

I've been waiting for someone like you
Now you've come my way
Sometimes I can't believe it's true
I hope you're here to stay

Without you...
Nothing can turn out right
I lie awake all night
Oh yeah, without you...
I keep calling your name
My life can never be the same
Oh yeah

Listen to this heart of mine
It's filled with dear desire
For you're the kind I tried so long to find
You set my soul on fire

Without you...
Nothing can turn out right
I lie awake all night
Oh yeah, without you...
I keep calling your name
My life can never be the same
Oh yeah

Without you...
I lie awake all night
Oh, I keep calling you
Without you...
Without you

Composer(s): Jerry Keller
Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five;
and various other artists



Here comes summer
School is out, oh happy days
Here comes summer
Gonna grab my girl and run away
If she's willing
We'll go steady right away
Now let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home

Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Almost June, the sun is bright
Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Gonna see her every night
It's the greatest (here comes summer)
Lots more time to hold her tight
Oh let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home

School's not so bad but the summer is better
They give me more time to see my girl
Walk through the park beneath the shiny moon
Oh when we kiss she makes my hair curl

Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Feel her lips so close to mine
Here comes summer (here comes summer)
When we meet her eyes both shine
It's the greatest (here comes summer)
Let's have summer all the time
Oh let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home

Here comes summer (here comes summer)
School is out, oh happy days
Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Gonna grab my girl and run away
If she's willing (here comes summer)
We'll go steady right away
Oh let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home

Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Almost June, the sun is bright
Here comes summer (here comes summer)
Gonna see her every night
It's the greatest (here comes summer)
Lots more time to hold her tight
Oh let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home

Loin De Moi


Loin De Moi
((English Version: Without You (by Johnny Tillotson))
Composer(s): Johnny Tillotson - G. Aber
Performer(s): Dalida



L'ennui m'enchaîne
Je n'y peut rien
Quoi qu'il advienne
L'ennui me tient
Dans la nuit je supplie, je crie et je prie
Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi

La nuit je traîne
Comme une croix
Toute ma peine
N'entends-tu pas
C'est ma voix qui supplie, qui prie et te crie
Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi

Je crois toujours
À ton retour
Au fol espoir
De te revoir
Plus que jamais
Je veux t'aimer
Alors j'attends viendras-tu?
Mais quand?

L'ennuie me ronge
Tout doucement
Il me replonge
Dans mes tourments
C'est mon cœur qui supplie qui prie et te crie
Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi

Here Comes My Girl


Here Comes My Girl
Composer(s): Mike Campbell; Tom Petty
Performer(s): Tom Petty; Throneberry



You know , sometimes, I don't know why
But this old town just seems so hopeless
I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times
Were just a little bit more in focus

But when she puts her arms around me
I can, somehow, rise ab ove it
Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side
You know, I can tell the whole wide world, "Shove it"

Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight

Every now and then, I get down to the end of a day
I'll have to stop, ask myself, "What've I done?"
It just seems so useless to have to work so hard
And nothin' ever really seem to come from it

And then she looks m e in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, because this feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it

Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight

Yeah, every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more
I find myself havin' to reach out and grab hold of somethin'
Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin', waitin', worryin'
About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'

And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever"
And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
No, because this feels so good and so free and so right
I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it

Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl
Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight

Springtime Promises


Springtime Promises
Composer(s): Terry Cox - Bert Jansch - Jacqui McShee - John Renbourn - Danny Thompson
Performer(s): Pentangle



Summertime is with us once again
Flowers blooming everywhere again
And the cold days of winter are behind us now
And the springtime promises all come true

Trees and grass and bushes green again
The sky's so blue, I don't remember when
The cold days of winter took the sun away
But the spring time promises all came true
It's summertime now, so please don't throw it away

Winter world will be with us once again
Flowers dying everywhere again
And the warm days of summer will they far behind
And the springtime promises soon forgot

Grass and bushes withered, and the trees are bare
Dark and cloudy skies and people in despair
And the warm days of summer seem so far away
And the springtime promises still forgot
It's wintertime so you've got to wait a while
For the spring time promises to come true

Now the new born year has come once more
Gentle showers are with us as before
It's the time when all promises are now made true
And the springtime sun returns anew

Someday all will turn to green again
Flowers will burst of seeds to bloom again
The warm days of springtime tell us all is past
Can you feel your promises will be true
It's springtime now, be happy again

Here comes more tears to cry
Here comes more heartaches by
Here comes my baby back again!

She's sorry once again
Once more I'll understand
Here comes my baby back again!

My arms are open wide
To let more hurt inside
Here comes my baby back again!

She's sorry once again
Once more I'll understand
Here comes my baby back again!

On Again ... Off Again


On Again ... Off Again
Composer(s): Philip Vella - Gerard James Borg
First performance by: Julie & Ludwig - 2004



Look at me, I need some attention
I'm a girl of serious intention
Just like a butterfly
My wings can take me high
To touch your piece of sky

Though I can fly away
Play cool, or run away
I choose to hold your love
More than one night

You're everything and nothing in one
(What do you mean?)
Our love goes from the north to the south
(I disagree)
I just can't understand anymore
What we have in common

On again, off again
Like the rhythm of rain
We need to decide
Find an end to this game
Such wonderful times
Many natural highs
Love is a flame that we can never tame
On again, off again

Why, oh why can't I live without you?
How, oh how do I reach inside you?
My love is justified
I simply had enough
I want you by my side

Am I your fantasy?
Mystery? Or destiny?
Do you take me for a ride?
Please, tell me now

You're the air, you're the love that I breathe
(That sounds so good)
You're the magic that flows from within
(I feel that too)
We come close, then we move far away
Can't we stay together?

On again, off again
Like the rhythm of rain
We need to decide
Find an end to this game
Such wonderful times
Many natural highs
Love is a flame that we can never tame
On again, off again

There's a river between us
And I need you to come across
Reach out for my heart
Keep this feeling so alive
Love grows, we survive

On again, off again
Like the rhythm of rain
We need to decide
Find an end to this game
Such wonderful times
Many natural highs
Love is a flame that we can never tame
On again, off again

Off again, on again
Like a flickering flame
That dies in the wind
And lights up again
Such wonderful times
Many natural highs
Love is a flame we can never tame
On again, off again

On again, off again

Here Comes My Baby
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): The Tremeloes



In the midnight, moonlight hour
she is walking along that lovely mile
and everytime I do
I Keep seeing this picture of you

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
and it comes as no surprise for me
with another guy
Well here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with her love, with her love, that's oh-so fine
never to be mine, no matter how I try

You never walk alone
and your forever talking on the phone
I tryed to call you names
but everytime it comes out the same

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
and it comes as no surprise for me
with another guy
Well here comes my baby, here she comes now
walking with her love, with her love, that's oh-so fine
never to be mine, no matter how I try

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
and it comes as no surprise for me
with another guy
Well here comes my baby, here she comes now
walking with her love, with her love, that's oh-so fine
never to be mine, no matter how I try

Springtime Mama


Springtime Mama
Composer(s): Henry Gross
Performer(s): Henry Gross



Springtime Mama, with my lady
Let me know that I've been lazy
Let your smile that gets me crazy
Like the moon is shining through

Springtime Mama, roll it over
To the road side little cover
Hold me down now take me over
`Till that feeling's back again

Wanna have a simple moonshine
Wanna sing along on a song or two
Said, "Gonna make it for the old times
Wanna hold your hand and kiss the whole night through

Wanna hear about your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"

Springtime Mama, I've been rolling
With the flow of old wind's blowing
Always hoping, never knowing
If I'd get with you again

Springtime Mama, with my lady
Let me know that I've been lazy
Let your smile that gets me crazy
Like the moon is shining through

Wanna hear about your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"

Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama
Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout…

Here Comes A Man


Here Comes A Man
Composer(s): Jim Capaldi; Steve Winwood
Performer(s): Traffic



I've heard it said people's souls chase the night
Hoping for times that went before when their hearts were flying
No, don't you be blue when you hear the wild birds call
Oh, hold on, love, 'cause I'll never let you fall
Here comes a man who'll give you all the love he can
Far from the rain where you'll never feel the pain
Don't cry, we'll come alive, oh, if you'll wait for me
Out of my head a vision flows bathed in light
Borne by the tide along the shore where the wind is sighing
No, don't you be blue when you hear the music play
Just hold on, love, 'cause we're gonna sail away

(refrain)

I've been coming to set you free 'cause your love belongs to me
Yes, I'm going to make you mine 'till the end of time
Hoping to get through and that the hailstones don't fall
So hold on, love, like you never did before

(refrain)

À Chaque Pas


À Chaque Pas Composer(s): Ben "Jammin" Robbins - Jonatan Cerrada - Steve Balsamo First performance by: Jonatan Cerrada - 2004



Il y a des blessures
Qu'on devra oublier
Tellement de ratures
Qu'il faudra effacer

Souffler très fort pour que s'envole de nos coeurs la rancune
Et puis faire tomber les barrières une à une...

À chaque pas que l'on fera
À chaque geste qu'on offrira
Ce sera le début d'un autre demain
Dans chaque mot que l'on dira
Dans ce futur qu'on construira
C'est l'Amour que dessineront nos mains

Il y a des injures
Qu'il faudra pardonner
Des cris contre des murs
Qui les feront tomber

Déposons les armes à nos pieds, délaissons nos armures
Pour que nos conflits ne soient plus que murmures

À chaque pas que l'on fera
À chaque geste qu'on offrira
Ce sera le début d'un autre demain
Dans chaque mot que l'on dira
Dans ce futur qu'on construira
C'est l'Amour que dessineront nos mains

La bataille sera longue
Mais tu sais elle en vaut la peine
L'enfant en nous trouvera le chemin

Il y a des fêlures
Qui resteront brisées
Des coups un peu durs
À jamais marqués

À chaque pas que l'on fera
À chaque geste qu'on offrira
Se que al final lograras encontrar
La paz y la felicitad
En tu camino hallaras
Todo lo que deseas alcanzar

C'est l'amour que dessineront nos mains. ....

Here Come Those Tears Again


Here Come Those Tears Again
Composer(s): Jackson Browne; Nancy Farnsworth
Performer(s): Jackson Browne



Here come those tears again
Just when I was getting over you
Just when I was going to make it through
Another night without missing you
Thinking I might just be strong enough after all
When I hear your footsteps echoing in the hall
Baby here we stand again
Like we've been so many times before
Even though you looked so sure
As I was watching you walking out my door
But you always walk back in like you did today
Acting like you never even went away
Well I don't know if I can
Open up and let you in baby
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
I can hear you telling me
How you needed to be free
And you had some things to work out alone
Now you're standing here telling me
How you have grown
Here come those tears again
Now you'll tell me how to hold them in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Some other time baby
When I'm strong and feeling fine maybe
When I can look at you without crying
You might look like a friend of mine
But I don't know if I can
Open up enough to let you in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Just walk away
I'm going back inside and turning out those light
And I'll be in the dark but you'll be out of sight

The Springtime For Hitler


The Springtime For Hitler
Composer(s): Mel Brooks
Performer(s): Mel Brooks
and multiple other artists



Germany was having trouble, what a sad, sad story
Needed a new leader to restore its former glory
Where, Oh where was he?
Where could that man be?
We looked around and then we found
The man for you and me
And now it's..

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Deutschland is happy and gay
We're marching to a faster pace
Look out, here comes the master race

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Winter for Poland and France
Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Come on, Germans, go into your dance

I was born in Dusseldorf, and that is why they call me Rolf
Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Goosestep's the new step today
bombs falling from the skies again
Deutschland is on the rise again

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Uboats are sailing once more

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Means that soon we'll be going
We've got to be going
You know we'll be going to War!
