Sympati For Djævlen
Sympati For Djævlen
((Adapted from: Sympathy For The Devil (The Rolling Stones) - 1968))
((German Version: Der Teufel In Euch (Peter Schleicher) - 1979))
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards - Lars Lilholt
Performer(s): Lars Lilholt Band - 2008
Tillad mig at præsentere mig selv
jeg er en rig og stilfuld mand
jeg har hængt ud her i årevis
at stjæle sjælefred og tro er det jeg kan
jeg var her da Jesus fik
sin smertefulde tvivl på Golghata
jeg ville sikre mig Pilatus
beseglede den skæbne Jesus skulle ha’
Godt at se dig
gætter du mit navn
blir du forvirret af
mit spil, min leg, mit savn
Jeg hang ud i Sct. Petersborg
da tiden den var inde til et skift
Dræbte Zaren og ministrene
Anastasias skrig gav et pift
jeg kørte tank og var general af rang
Da blitzkrigen rasede og ligene stank
Godt at se dig…
Fornøjet så jeg jeres konger slå
ihjel i tusind år for guder de opfandt
jeg råbte ”Hvem dræbte Kennedy”
det var vel dig og mig ikke sandt
tillad mig at præsentere mig selv
jeg er en rig og stilfuld mand
der lagde fælder ud for musikerne
så de junked’ sig ihjel i ukendt land
Godt at se dig…
Som hver en strømer er forbryder
og en synder en hellig mand
som plat er krone kald mig Lucifer
jeg har behov for det som den begrænsning kan
hvis du møder mig vis belevenhed
vis lidt sympati det er mit bedste bud
benyt din tillærte høflighed
eller jeg lar din sjæl gå planken ud
Godt at se dig…
Sig mig skat hvad er mit navn
jeg siger det kun en gang

'Cause there's so much, girl, I have yet to learn

'Cause when I found you, I found a new inspiration

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long years
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
(woo woo, woo woo)
I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
(who who, who who)
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
(woo woo, who who)
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
(who who)
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
(who who, who who)
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
(woo woo, who who)
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
(who who, who who)
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
(woo woo)
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
(who who)
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
(woo woo, woo woo)
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
(woo woo)
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Oh, who
woo, woo
Woo, who
Woo, woo
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah
Woo woo

Your Other Love
Your Other Love
Composer(s): Doc Pomus; Mort Shuman
Performer(s): Dean Martin; The Flamingos
Your other love may be handsome
And when he smiles he's got a twinkle in his eye
Your other love may be bolder
And when he holds you in his arms you wanna die
He says he loves you from the very start
But your other love, but your other love
Is gonna someday break your heart.
Your other love says he needs you
Just like a flower needs the burning summer sun
Your other love says he wants you
Oh, how he swears to you
That you're the only one
He claims his future just depends on you
But your other love, but your other love
Is gonna someday prove untrue
He's just tellin' lies
Got you hypnotized
Soon you'll realize
Your other love is unfaithful
When you're not there, another girl is in his arms
Your other love is a lover
Makin' love to any girl who's in his arms
My love is true
Not for just a day
But your other love
But your other love
Is gonna someday fly away
But your other love
But your other love
Is gonna someday fly away

Seid's freundlich, seid's fidel

I have to mow the lawn
And I have to wash the car
And I'd just like to know
Just who you think you are
I'm gettin' tired of wagging
That old heavy garbage can
Your woman's gettin' tired
Of being your ole handy man
I have to run your water
And I have to wash your back
And I have to scrub the tub
After you have had your bath
You're as helpless as a baby
But I love you, understand
I'm just gettin' tired
Of being your ole handy man
Your woman's gettin' tired of being your ole handy man
Now I know you've got ten fingers
But where's your helpin' hand
I've just made a decision
I've stood all I'm gonna stand
Your woman's gettin' tired of being your ole handy man
I do everything for you
You never help yourself
An' I think I'd die from shock
If you raised a hand to help
Well, I'm not gonna keep it up
That's what you got planned
Your woman's gettin' tired of being your ole handy man
Your woman's gettin' tired of being your ole handy man
Now I know you got ten fingers
But where's that helpin' hand
I've just made a decision
I've stood all I'm gonna stand
Your woman's gettin' tired of being your ole handy man

Your Old Standby
Composer(s): Janie Bradford; Smokey Robinson
Performer(s): Mary Wells; Gladys Knight & The Pips
She left you last night
And today you called me on the phone
Asked me if you could come over
'Cause you didn't want to be alone
So you want me to stand in for her
And be the love of your next act
But this time I play the part so well
There'll be no need for her coming back, 'cause...
Chorus
You know that I'm your old stand-by
You know that you can call on me
I know the part so well that you can hardly tell
That she's left you in misery
I know you only called me 'cause you needed company
'Cause once again she's left you and your heart's in misery, but...
(chorus)
(instrumental)
(repeat and fade)
I don't wanna be your old stand-by
I wanna be with you permanently
I'm gonna play the part from the depths of my heart
And you won't need nobody but me

And sympathy is what we need my friends
'Cause there's not enough love to go 'round
No there's not enough love to go 'round
Now half the world hates the other half
And half the world has all the food
And half the world lies down and quietly starves
'Cause there's not enough love to go 'round
And sympathy is what we need my friends
And sympathy is what we need
And sympathy is what we need my friends
'Cause there's not enough love to go 'round
No there's not enough love to go 'round

You carry my books
You give me looks that say "I love you"
You send me flowers
I spend my hours thinking of you
But I saw you late last night
You were holding another girl tight
Go ahead, explain
But remember, if you lie
The bogeyman will get you
And your nose is gonna grow
So remember, if you lie
Ev'ryone will know
Remember, if you lie
Your nose is gonna grow-oh-oh-oh-oh
And ev'ryone will know
You're holding my hand
Making plans to stay together
Promising me
That our love will be forever
If everything you say is true
Well, who's the girl I saw with you
Go ahead, explain
But remember, if you lie
The bogeyman will get you
And your nose is gonna grow-oh-oh-oh-oh
So remember, if you lie
Ev'ryone will know, ooh-oh-oh
The bogeyman will get you
Your nose is gonna grow-oh-oh-oh-oh
The bogeyman will ...

kisses your cheek, whispers sleep tight
Your mother and mine

Ask your heart to tell you her worth
your heart must say heaven on earth
Another word for divine

Now when you climb
Into your bed tonight
And when you lock
And bolt the door
Just think of those
Out in the cold and dark
'Cause there is not enough love to go round
Now when you climb ...
And when you lock ...
Just think of those
Out in the cold and dark
'Cause there is not enough love to go round
[Maxi Jazz]
Until you wake up
You people need a shake up
You take up so much time
Worrying, Scurrying
Here, there
Losing your hair
No money to spare
No love to share
No wonder you appear under pressure from here
You look fresh, yeah
But all I got is dirt in my hair
My nightmares manifest,
But I can escape
Yours is in your chest
With no form or shape
The tape is running
I push the button to send
Upon each other we all depend
Message end
Whoever asks my name
Or where I came from
People fear contamination
If they chary too long
I carry a strong
Sin of despair
It's in the air
I'm broken and hard to repair
I may mistaken be
But I patiently wait
On the path to humanity
I sit at the gates
Now when you climb
Into your bed tonight
And when you lock
And bolt the door
Just think of those
Out in the cold and dark
'Cause there is not enough love to go round
Now when you climb
Into your bed tonight
And when you lock
And bolt the door
Just think of those
Out in the cold and dark
'Cause there is not enough love to go round
[Maxi Jazz]
Dirty, Cold, Hurting, Soul
Down the river
My liver in bad condition
Like my skin
Rain falling, once again
I'm in my bed
Hurt the time in
I'm gonna struggle for air
There's hair in my food
When I get it usually someone already half ate it
Touch it, not to let it
Get me down
But my head starting to pound
People go round, and round and round
From one I get a cigarette
A little more love found
But the ground is still wet
My teeth are chattering
And there's a spattering of seeds
Sometimes I lose all feeling in my feet
When I sleep I'll do my deep in the mainstream
But unaccountably my heart was growing
Small and mean
A hurry past
Wretched people I pretend I haven't seen
But there's money in my pocket
And my clothes are clean?
[Maxi Jazz 4x]
I said money in my pocket
But I just can't give no love
Money in my pocket
But I just can't give no love
Now when you climb
Into your bed tonight
And when you lock
And bolt the door
Just think of those
Out in the cold and dark
'Cause there is not enough love to go round
'Cause there is not enough love to go round

Your Mind Has Left Your Body
Your Mind Has Left Your Body
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Paul Kantner
You have left your body
Be aware if you care
Your mind has left your body
And for this one moment you are
Under the polar ice cap
In a place we call home
How is it there white bear
Like that
Where you grow...
Now all of you come back to here and now
Elsewhen to there
Move on out the other way
Where...
Do you find yourself
Floating, growing, there
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow, let it grow
You can exercise your mind
On where you want to go
And you can see the city lights flashin'
Two thousand miles below you
You can feel the sands of Zanzibar
Or pierce the nearest sun
Find out what and who you are
And if you need to run
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow, let it grow
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow, let it grow
There is one moment in your life
And it can come at any time
And you remember all of what went on
From the instant you were born
Through your early years
And if you can fasten on that moment
And expand through the afterglow
You can reverse your mind in time
And travel back to when
The earth was formed
The sky was born
And the universe began
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow, let it grow
You have left your body
Return when you may
Save it for another day, beyond you

Di notte tu
A letto te ne vai
Ma penso che
Non dormiresti piu'
Pensando a chi
Giu' nella strada sta
Ed e' solo nell'oscurita'
L'umanita'
Pensa soltanto a se'
L'umanita'
Non sa pregare piu'
La verita'
E' che mi devi amare
Se nel mondo l'amore non c'e'
Se nel mondo l'amore non c'e'
Tu vedi che
C'e' chi non muore mai
E invece c'e'
Chi lotta per vivere
Meta' del mondo
Sa cosa son le stelle
Mentre gli altri non le vedono mai
L'umanita' pensa soltanto a se'
L'umanita' non sa pregare piu'
La verita' e' che mi devi amare
Se nel mondo l'amore non c'e'
Se nel mondo l'amore non c'e'

Performer(s): Joe Dassin
C'était un soir, un matin peut-être, Sylvie
T'en souviens-tu, Sylvie, je ne sais plus, Sylvie
C'était l'été, l'automne peut-être, Sylvie
Je n'en sais rien, Sylvie, c'est déjà loin, Sylvie
On perd jusqu'à la mémoire
D'un air que l'on a chanté
Et ton image nous sépare
Des paysages familiers
D'une rivière, d'un banc de square
Et d'une chambre où tu venais
Qui se souvient de nous, Sylvie
Qui peut penser à nous
Qui sait encore qu'il y a longtemps
On s'aimait fort, on s'aimait tant
Mais tout s'efface, tout se remplace, Sylvie
Rêves d'enfants, Sylvie, rêves de grands aussi
Et le bonheur lui-même passe, Sylvie
Comme le temps, Sylvie, comme le vent, Sylvie
On perd jusqu'à la mémoire
D'un air que l'on a chanté
Et cet instant et ce visage
Que l'on voudrait se rappeler
Ne sont que des châteaux de sable
Bientôt la mer va remonter
Qui se souvient de nous, Sylvie
Qui peut penser à nous,
Qui sait encore qu'il y a longtemps
On s'aimait fort, on s'aimait tant
Mais on s'est sans doute fait des promesses, Sylvie
T'en souviens-tu, Sylvie, je ne sais plus, Sylvie
Amour d'un jour, amour de jeunesse, Sylvie
Se sont perdus, Sylvie, et tu n'es plus qu'un oubli

Your Love Is Stranger Than Mine
Composer(s): Colin Bass;
Andy Latimer; Jan Schelhaas; Andy Ward
Performer(s): Camel; Colin Bass
Can't you see?
All of the things that I'm trying to say
Are inside of me
I never thought I'd be feeling this way
But I think you've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine
Seeing you
I can't believe in a love that won't leave
I don't want you to
Be anyone that you don't wanna be
But I think you've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine
If you are the one
To make it, to break it
If you are the one
Won't you stay with me?
One more time
Getting a feeling afraid that I might be
Out of line
Telling myself there's a chance that you
could be someone I've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine
