Don't Ever Change (The Crickets)
Don't Ever Change
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin - Carole King
First release by: The Crickets - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists
You never wear a suit of lace
the powder's not on your face
You're always wearing jeans
except on Sunday
So please don't ever change
no don't you ever change
I kind of like you
just the way you are
You don't know the latest dance
but when it's time to make romance
your kisses let me know
you're not a tomboy
So please don't ever change
no don't you ever change
Promise you're always gonna be
as sweet as you are
I love you when you're happy
I love you when you're blue
I love you when you're mad at me
so how can I get tired of you?
A lots of other girls I've seen
they know how to treat guys mean
But you would rather die
than ever hurt me
So please don't ever change
no don't you ever change
Just promise you're always gonna be
as sweet as you are
Please don't ever change
don't you ever change
Please don't ever change
don't you ever change

Authority Song
Composer(s): John Cougar Mellencamp
First release by: John Cougar Mellencamp - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
They like to get you in a compromising position
They like to get you there and smile in your face
They think they're so cute when they got you in that condition
Well I think it's a total disgrace
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I been doing it since I was a young kid
I come out grinnin'
I fight authority, Authority always wins
So I call up my preacher
I say, "Give me strength for Round 5"
He said , "You don't need no strength, you need to grow up son"
I said, "Growing up leads to growing old and then to dying
"And dying to me don't sound like all that much fun"
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I been doing it since I was a young kid
I come out grinnin'
I fight authority, Authority always wins
Oh no oh no
I fight authority Authority always wins
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I fight authority, Authority always wins
I been doing it since I was a young kid
I come out grinnin'
I fight authority, Authority always wins

Don't Eat The Yellow Snow
Don't Eat The Yellow Snow
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa
Dreamed I was an Eskimo
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop-bop Ta-da-da)
Frozen wind began to blow
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop-bop Ta-da-da)
Under my boots 'n around my toe
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop-bop Ta-da-da)
Frost had bit the ground below
(Boop-boop aiee-ay-ah!)
Was a hundred degrees below zero
(Booh!)
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop-bop Ta-da-da)
And my momma cried
Boo-a-hoo hoo-ooo
And my momma cried
Nanook-a, no no (no no...)
Nanook-a, no no (no no...)
Don't be a naughty Eskimo-wo-oh
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop-bop Ta-da-da)
Save your money: don't go to the show
Well I turned around an' I said
Ho Ho
(Booh!)
Well I turned around an' I said
Ho Ho
(Booh!)
Well I turned around an' I said
Ho Ho
An' the Northern Lites commenced t' glow
An' she said
(Bop-bop ta-da-da bop...)
With a tear in her eye
Watch out where the huskies go
An' don't you eat that yellow snow
Watch out where the huskies go
An' don't you eat that yellow snow

Autant D'amour Autant De Fleurs
Autant D'amour Autant De Fleurs
Composer(s): Henri Bassis
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Il y a dans Harlem
À se manger des yeux
Un couple d'amoureux
Qui dansent et quand ils s'aiment
La nuit moule leurs corps
Leurs gestes et leurs phrases
Et leur rire est sonore
Comme un sanglot de jazz
Autant d'amour autant de fleurs
Y'en a de toutes les couleurs
De flamme ou d'ombre
De neige ou miel
Toutes les roses se confondent
Tous les amours qui sont au monde
Font comme une arche d'arc-en-ciel
Il y a dans mon coeur
Un cocktail d'amoureux
J'invente les aveux
Je mêle les liqueurs
Il est noir elle est blanche
Elle est jeune il est beau
La main le long des hanches
Glisse comme un oiseau
Autant d'amour autant de fleurs
Y'en a de toutes les couleurs
De flamme ou d'ombre
De neige ou miel
Toutes les roses se confondent
Tous les amours qui sont au monde
Font comme une arche d'arc-en-ciel
Qu'importent au long des rues
Les regards qui s'attardent
Qu'importent les échardes
Aux amours défendues
Il y a dans mon coeur
Libres comme les dieux
Un couple d'amoureux
Qui croise ses couleurs
Autant d'amour autant de fleurs
Y'en a de toutes les couleurs
De flamme ou d'ombre
De neige ou miel
Toutes les roses se confondent
Tous les amours qui sont au monde
Font comme une arche d'arc-en-ciel

Australia Land Of Today
Australia Land Of Today
Composer(s): Judith Durham
Performer(s): Judith Durham
Australia land of today, every way
We'll sing your praise as a country far and wide
We'll sing of loving and living here each day
We'll tell the world of endless beauty
And the sun that warms our way
Australia land of today, every way
We'll take the cares of the world within our stride
When there are troubles we'll always lend a hand
And we will love you because you are our land
And in days of strife and woe
There's no better way to show
That Australia is great among them all
Than to care for everyone
Every colour, we're all one
We're Australian - so never let them fall
Australia land of today, we will pray
That there could always be peace within your shores
The Aussie spirit's riding high and our voices fill the sky
That Australia's a great place to be
And Australian are we, you and me

Don't Drop Inn/Workin' On My Attitude
Don't Drop Inn/Workin' On My Attitude
Composer(s): Judy Freudberg - Tony Geiss - Van Dyke Parks
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap
"Meanwhile everyone from Sesame Street
was trying to find Big Bird
Even me; I love a wild goose chase
One night we ate at a real grunge café
with grunge food and grunge..."
Here I really feel great
When I sing the blues and make you cry
Bye bye
Guess I was born to be
A dark cloud in a sunny sky
...
If I can't make it rain on your parade
I shouldn't be so rude
And I'm workin' on my attitude
Anti-sociable, unemotional, insensitive
Right down to the bone
My personality has possibility
Only a flaw or two
So I'm workin' on my attitude
There's nothing like a friend
Who'll... for hours on end and never smiles
... affection
... and disrespect in style
Say, life's a piece of cake
And I don't watch my weight at all
Lessee
I approach you somewhat rude
But I'm workin' on my attitude
Anti-sociable, unemotional, insensitive
Right down to the bone
My personality has possibility
Only a flaw or two
And I'm workin' on my attitude

Australia
Australia
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): Steve Howe
Play the halls
See the stalls tonight
Open roads the like
Across the dateline change will never strike
Australia lies ahead
Australia, we head for the mainland
Clutching our gifts from the East
Only to find out
Planes and the highways
Strain the paths and the by-ways
Remain, still it's leading me
Closer to you
Australia, we're leaving you behind
Australia, we're taking the easy way out
From now on
"Come to," can't get away from ya still
"Come to, we'll take good care of ya"
Australia, you save your face while fashions slip
Australia, you're balanaced between
The powers' tightening grip
I've been to, it's a long way for ya still
"Go via, they'll take care of ya"

Don't Do Me Like That
Composer(s): Tom Petty
First release by: Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - 1979
I was talkin' with a friend of mine
Said a woman done hurt his pride
Told him that she loved him so, then
Turned around and let him go
Then he said "you'd better watch your step"
Or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size...
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Girl I love you baby
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Someday I'll need ya baby
Don't do me like that
Listen honey can you see, baby you'll bury me
You're in the public eye, give someone else a try
And you know you'd better watch your step, or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size...
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Girl I love you baby
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
'Cause somewhere deep down inside, someone is sayin'
Love doesn't last that long...
I have the feeling inside, Lord I don't need it
I know I can't take it no more....
Someday I'll need ya baby
Don't do me like that
Listen honey can you see, baby you'll bury me
You're in the public eye, give someone else a try
And you know you'd better watch your step, or you're gonna get hurt yourself
Someone's gonna tell you lies
Cut you down to size...
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Girl I love you baby
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that
Don't do me like that

Aussi Vivant
Aussi Vivant
Composer(s): Carla Bruni - Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Sans vouloir vraiment
Sans intention
Sans poser l'ombre d'une question
Comme en passant
Sans qu'il soit trop tard
Sans déraison
Sans s'inquiéter de n'pas savoir
Sans se dire non
Se laisser glisser très tendrement
Se chavirer tout simplement
Le corps brûlant
Rien de la vie
Rien ne me laisse
Aussi vivant
Aussi vivant
Sans se dire pourquoi
Et sans comment
Sans s'envelopper de faux-semblants
Et sans contrat
Se laisser aimer très doucement
Et s'emmêler obstinément
À leurs tourments
Rien de la vie
Rien ne me laisse
Aussi vivant
Aussi vivant
Se laisser glisser très tendrement
Se chavirer tout simplement
Se laisser aimer très doucement
Et s'emmêler obstinément
Sans vouloir toujours tellement frémir
Sans se convaincre de l'amour sans s'éblouir
Se serrer tout contre cet instant
Se laisser jouer tout simplement
Comme des enfants
Rien de la vie
Rien ne me laisse
Aussi vivant
Aussi vivant
Rien de la vie
Vaut qu'on se lasse
D'être vivant
Se laisser glisser très tendrement
Se chavirer tout simplement
Se laisser aimer très doucement
Et s'emmêler obstinément

Don't Do It
Don't Do It
Composer(s): Johnny Burnette
Performer(s): Johnny Burnette
If I had a girl that loved me
Just as much as she loves you
I'd stay in her arms every doggone day
And never would be untrue
You can't win (you can't win)
Don't do it, my friend
Well you told her lies and alibis
You tried to make her think you care
But when she wants the little bit of love you promised
She can't find it anywhere
You can't win (you can't win)
Don't do it, my friend
One of these days you're gonna find yourself
All alone and oh so blue
Don't come to me for sympathy
'Cause it'll be too late
There won't be a thing I can do for you
Well you'd better take her in your lovin' arms
And tell her that you're so ashamed
Don't try to be smart and break her heart
'Cause you're gonna play a loser's game
You can't win (you can't win)
Don't do it, my friend
One of these days you're gonna find yourself
All alone and oh so blue
Don't come to me for sympathy
'Cause it'll be too late
There won't be a thing I can do for you
Well you'd better take her in your lovin' arms
And tell her that you're so ashamed
Don't try to be smart and break her heart
'Cause you're gonna play a loser's game
You can't win (you can't win)
Don't do it, my friend
(repeat):
You can't win (you can't win)
Don't do it, my friend

Aussi Dur Que Du Bois
Aussi Dur Que Du Bois
((Adapted from: Knock On Wood (by Eddie Floyd) - 1966))
Composer(s): Eddie Floyd - Steve Cropper - Georges Aber
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1967
Quand j'étais enfant on disait
Que j'étais un vaurien
Et je traînais
Dans les rues tout le temps
Avec les mêmes copains
Oui, je m'en souviens
On se cognait, frappait
J'avais la tête aussi dure
Aussi dure que du bois
Je crois
Plus tard dans la vie
J'ai donné
Mon amour aux filles
Quel temps perdu
À les aimer pour rien
Tous mes ennuis, chagrins
Oui, je m'en souviens
Et j'ai souffert l'enfer
Et j'ai le cœur aussi dur
Aussi dur que du bois
Je crois
Je cherche encore un amour
Qui peux tout sauver
Amour d'un jour
J'en ai plus qu'assez
Ils m'ont fait du mal
Le voilà mon secret
Ne cherchez pas pourquoi
Si j'ai le cœur aussi dur
Aussi dur que du bois
C'est ça
Aussi dur que du bois
C'est ça
Aussi dur que du bois
Aussi dur, dur, dur que du bois
Aussi dur que du bois...

Don't Dilly Dally On The Way
Don't Dilly Dally On The Way ((aka My Old Man (Said Follow The Van))
Composer(s): Charles Collins - Fred W. Leigh
Performer(s): Mary Lloyd
We had to move away
'Cos the rent we couldn't pay
The moving van came round just after dark
There was me and my old man
Shoving things inside the van
Which we'd often done before, let me remark
We packed all that could be packed
In the van, and that's a fact
And we got inside all that we could get inside
Then we packed all we could pack
On the tailboard at the back
Till there wasn't any room for me to ride
My old man said: "Foller the van
And don't dilly-dally on the way"
Off went the van wiv me 'ome packed in it
I walked be'ind wiv me old cock linnet
But I dillied and dallied
Dallied and dillied
Lost me way and don't know where to roam
And you can't trust a "Special"
Like the old-time copper
When you can't find your way home
I gave a helping hand
With the marble wash hand-stand
And straight, we wasn't getting on so bad
All at once, the car-man bloke
Had an accident and broke
Well, the nicest bit of china that we had
You'll understand, of course
I was cross about the loss
Same as any other human woman would
But I soon got over that
What with "two out" and a chat
'Cos it's little things like that what does you good
My old man said: "Foller the van
And don't dilly-dally on the way"
Off went the van wiv me 'ome packed in it
I walked be'ind wiv me old cock linnet
But I dillied and dallied
Dallied and dillied
Lost me way and don't know where to roam
Oh! I'm in such a mess
I don't know the new address
Don't even know the blessed neighbourhood
And I feel as if I might
Have to stay out here all night
And that ain't a goin' to do me any good
I don't make no complaint
But I'm coming over faint
What I want now's a good substantial feed
And I sort 'o kind 'o feel
If I don't soon have a meal
I shall have to rob the linnet of its seed!
My old man said: "Foller the van
And don't dilly-dally on the way"
Off went the van wiv me 'ome packed in it
I walked be'ind wiv me old cock linnet
But I dillied and dallied
Dallied and dillied
Lost me way and don't know where to roam

Don't Cry Wolf
Don't Cry Wolf
Composer(s): Brian James
Performer(s): The Damned
You don't have to listen
To what your parents say
They don't understand us
Their laws we don't obey
You can wear what you want
There ain't no uniform
Go where you want to go
Don't stay locked at home
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf
You stand stand around now
Looking like fools
But there's a lot you could do
There ain't no rules
No point in getting bored
That won't help if you fail
So come and have some fun now
Help us smash it all
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf
It's no good for you kids
Being told what to do
There's a lot of kicks for you
If you find something new
You don't have to listen
To what your parents say
They don't understand us
Their laws we don't obey
You can wear what you want
And there ain't no uniform
Go where you want to go
Don't stay at home
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf
Don't be a fool
Don't cry wolf

Aurore
Aurore
Composer(s): Pierre Rapsat
First release by: Pierre Rapsat - 1992
Il y a dans les yeux d'Aurore
À l'encre des années écrites sur un livre d'or
Toute une histoire qui brille
C'est tout simplement sa vie
Et les souvenirs
Que je peux lire
Vous emmène danser
Dans son passé
Danse, danse, dansait Aurore
Avec ton fiancé
Danse, danse, dansait Aurore
Et vive les mariés
Mais il y a dans les yeux d'Aurore
Elle et ses enfants qui fuirent l'Espagne à l'aurore
Ils sont venus lui prendre
Celui qu'elle aime, Franco
Sombre souvenir
Que je peux lire
Gravé dans le passé
Dans son passé
Danse, danse, dansait l'Aurore
C'est la fin de l'été
Danse, danse, dansait l'Aurore
Elle n'a plus jamais dansé
L'histoire est souvent cruelle
Elle a quitté le soleil
Pour arriver dans ce plat pays
Pour que ses enfants grandissent ici
Pour que les siens survivent
Pour qu'un jour je puisse lui dire
En 1900 est né quelqu'un d'épatant
Et même si longtemps elle est restée belle
Elle est à jamais fidèle
Aux souvenirs
Qui l'emmènent danser dans son passé
Danse, danse, danse Aurore
Avec ton fiancé
Danse, danse, danse Aurore
Et vive les mariés
Danse, danse, danse Aurore
Et vive les mariés

Don't Cry Out Loud
Don't Cry Out Loud
Composer(s): Peter Allen - Carole Bayer Sager
First release by: Peter Allen - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'Cause she didn't want parades just passin' by her
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire
I know a lot about 'er 'cause, you see
Baby is an awful lot like me
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside, learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
They left behind her dreams among the litter
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
But baby can't be broken 'cause you see
She had the finest teacher-that was me-I told 'er
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost made it
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all

Aurora Borie Alice
Aurora Borie Alice
Composer(s): Walter Peirson Jr. - Samuel K. Stinger Jr.
Little Eskimo, in your house of snow
Way up by the Polar Sea
Yet there is no light the long Artic night
And I must soon go away
Sweet Aurora Borie Alice
In your snowy crystal palace
There's no girl in all the world compares to you
And although your skin is yellow
Yet I want to be your fellow
Underneath I know your heart is true
