Mein Herr
Mein Herr
Composer(s): Fred Ebb; John Kander
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli
and various other artists
You have to understand the way I am, mein Herr
A tiger is a tiger, not a lamb, mein Herr
You'll never turn the vinegar to jam, mein Herr
So I do, what I do
When I'm through, then I'm through
And I'm through, toodle oo
Bye bye mein lieber Herr, farewell mein lieber Herr
It was a fine affair, but now it's over
And though I used to care, I need the open air
You're better off without me mein Herr
Don't dab your eye, mein Herr, or wonder why mein Herr
I've always said that I was a rover
You mustn't knit your brow
You should have known by now
You'd every cause to doubt me mein Herr
The continent of Europe is so wide, mein Herr
Not only up and down, but side to side, mein Herr
I couldn't ever cross it if I tried, mein Herr
But I do what I can, inch by inch, step by step, mile by mile
Man by man
Bye bye mein Herr
Bye bye mein lieber Herr
Auf wiedersehen, mein Herr
Es war sehr gut, mein Herr, und vorbei
Du kennst mich wohl, mein Herr
Ach, lebe wohl, mein Herr
Du sollst mich nie mehr sehen mein Herr
Bye bye mein lieber Herr
Farewell mein lieber Herr
It was a fine affair, but now it's over
And though I used to care, I need the open air
You're better off without me
You'll get on without me, mein Herr

Composer(s): David Byrne - Brian Eno - Chris Frantz - Jerry Harrison - Tina Weymouth
First release by: Talking Heads - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful
wife
And you may ask yourself
Well...
How did I get here?
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Water dissolving...and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway go?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right?...Am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
My God!...
What Have I Done?
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...

A Christmas Carol (Tom Lehrer)
A Christmas Carol
Composer(s): Tom Lehrer
Performer(s): Tom Lehrer
and multiple other artists
Christmas time is here, by golly
Disapproval would be folly
Deck the halls with hunks of holly
Fill the cup and don't say when
Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens
Mix the punch, drag out the Dickens
Even though the prospect sickens
Brother, here we go again
On Christmas Day you can't get sore
Your fellow man you must adore
There's time to rob him all the more
The other three hundred and sixty-four
Relations, sparing no expense
'll Send some useless old utensil
Or a matching pen and pencil
("Just the thing I need, how nice!")
It doesn't matter how sincere it is
Nor how heartfelt the spirit
Sentiment will not endear it
What's important is the price
Hark, the Herald Tribune sings
Advertising wondrous things
God rest ye merry merchants
May ye make the Yuletide pay
Angels we have heard on high
Tell us to go out and buy!
So, let the raucous sleighbells jingle
Hail our dear old friend Kris Kringle
Driving his reindeer across the sky
Don't stand underneath when they fly by

First release by: Anthony Newley - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
Just once in a lifetime
A man knows a moment
One wonderful moment
When fate takes his hand
And this is my moment
My once in a lifetime
When I can explore a new and exciting land
For once in my lifetime
I feel like a giant
I soar like an eagle
As though I had wings
For this is my moment
My destiny calls me
And though it may be just once in my lifetime
I'm gonna do great things
And this is my moment
My once in a lifetime
When I can explore a new and exciting land
For once in my lifetime
I feel like a giant
I soar like an eagle
As though I had wings
For this is my moment
My destiny calls me
And though it may be just once in my lifetime
I'm gonna do great things

A Christmas Dream
A Christmas Dream
Performer(s): Nathan Tinkham
As I was drifting off to sleep
On this Christmas eve
My thoughts turned to looking back
At how this came to be
Long ago and far away
On a night so clear
It was such a simple thing
To echo through the years
Mary rock your baby boy
As he softly cries
There will be a world of tears
Shed for him bye and bye
Soon there will be peace and hope
For all the world to know
All because a child was born
Two thousand years ago
An angel brought his tidings
Not to priests and kings
But to shepherds in their fields
Afraid and trembling
And standing in the manger
How were they to know
How the world would change around
This babe in swaddling clothes
Mary rock your baby boy
As he softly cries
There will be a world of tears
Shed for him bye and bye
Now there can be peace and hope
For all the world to know
All because a child was born
Two thousand years ago

Meia-Noite
Meia-Noite
Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Se a noite não tem fundo
O mar perde o valor
Opaco é o fim do mundo
Pra qualquer navegador
Que perde o oriente
E entra em espirais
E topa pela frente
Um contingente
Que ele já deixou pra trás
Os soluços dobram tão iguais
Seus rivais, seus irmãos
Seu navio carregado de ideais
Que foram escorrendo feito grãos
As estrelas que não voltam nunca mais
E um oceano pra lavar as mãos

Once I Was
Once I Was
Composer(s): Larry Beckett; Tim Buckley
Performer(s): Tim Buckley; Eric Andersen; Tram
Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there'll be another
To tell you I was just a lie
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me
And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me

A Christmas Letter
A Christmas Letter
Composer(s): Gene Nelson - John Greenebaum - Paul Nelson
Performer(s): Reba McEntire
At an antique desk an old man sits alone
Oh, it's Christmas Eve and it's almost time to go
He signs his name to a letter he just wrote
Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow
I want peace on Earth for Christmas
In a world where there's not one hungry child
A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love
Then he walks outside and climbs upon his sleigh
And calls out to his reindeer, then off they fly away
Oh, tonight he'll make a million dreams appear
While he wishes that his own dreams could come true this year
I want peace on Earth for Christmas
In a world where there's not one hungry child
A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love
A day when hope and faith just conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love

Meglio Per Te Se Piangi
Meglio Per Te Se Piangi
French Title: Rentre Chez Toi Et Pleure
Composer(s): Calabrese; Charles Aznavour; Gilbert Bécaud
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Meglio per te se piangi
Io ho pianto già per te
Non sai per quante ore
Ho portato con me
Il ricordo di te
Meglio per te se piangi
Il pianto ti calmerà
Attenuerà il dolore
E lo cancellerà
Pena d'amore è breve
Ombra sottile e lieve
Che si allontanerà da te
Meglio per te se piangi
Il pianto ti calmerà
E dopo tanto dolore
Da me ti guiderà
Meglio per te spiangi
Piangi, piangi...

Once BittenTwice Shy
Once Bitten Twice Shy
Composer(s): Ian Hunter
Performer(s): Ian Hunter;
and various other artists
Well the time's gettin' hard for you little girl
I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world
you don't remember when you got your last meal
and you forgot just how a woman feels
you didn't know what rock n' roll was
until you met a drummer on a Greyhound bus
I got there in the nick of time
before he got his hands across your state line
well in the middle of the night
on the open road
and the heater don't work and it's oh-so cold
you're gettin' tired, you're lookin' kinda beat
the music of the street, drive you off your feet
you didn't know how rock n' roll looked
until you caught your sister with a guy from the group
half-way home in the parking lot
by the look in her eyes she was givin' what she got
Once bitten twice shy, babe
Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep
all the blood on my hand and my Les Paul heat
I can't leave you home cos you're runnin' around
my best friend told me you're the best trick in town
You didn't know that rock n' roll burned
so you bought a candle and you loved and you learned
you got the rhythm, you got the speed
mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet
Once bitten twice shy, babe
I didn't know ya got a rock n' roll record
until a saw your picture on another guy's jacket
you told me I was the only one
and look at you now, well it's dark as it's dumb
Once bitten twice shy, babe

Performer(s): Bill Anderson;
and various other artists
When you found somebody new
I thought I never would
Forget you, for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until now, I'm down to hurtin' once a day
Once a day, all day long
And once a night, from dusk 'til dawn
The ony time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, everyday, all day long
I'm so glad that I'm not like a friend I knew one time
He(she)lost the one he(she)loved, then slowly lost her mind
He(she) sat around and cried his (her) life away
Lucky me, I'm only crying once a day
Once a day, all day long
And once a night, from dusk 'til dawn
The only time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long
The only time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, everyday, all day long

and multiple other artists
All I want for Christmas is you
You're the gift that's made my dreams all come true
All I need for Christmas is here
Finding every sweet surprise wrapped up in your eyes
Waiting there for me
Underneath the tree
We'll spend the day
Exchanging kisses
Smile and say
"What a Christmas this is"
Long before the snowflakes appear
Without bells and mistletoe
Or the tinsel's silver glow
You just look at me and oh - Christmas is here
Long before the snowflakes appear
Without bells and mistletoe
Or the tinsel's silver glow
You just look at me and oh - Christmas is here

Meet The Family
Meet The Family
From the Show: The Crooked Mile, 1959
Composer(s): Greenwell; Wildeblood
Performer(s): Millicent Martin & Elisabeth Welch
If a man gets the idea that you’re flippety-jibbedy
And starts gettin’ ready to take a diabolical liberty
If he gives you a line you’re not keen on swallowing
Give him an old-fashioned look
And repeat the following
(Chorus)
Ta, ever so, ever so ta
That was a lovely compliment
But please remember, I’m a lady
And you’re supposed to be a gent
No, we cannot make it a date
I’m too young to stop out late
But please, tomorrow come to tea
And meet the family
Dear ol’ dad’s an all-in wrestler
Weighing-in at nineteen stones
Brother Bill’s a bonnie builder
And his hobby’s breaking bones
Sister Mona tears a phone book
Into little tiny shreds
Come along and meet ‘em
Come along and greet ‘em
They’re a family of thoroughbreds
(Chorus)
There’s a bloodhound in the kitchen
Hasn’t had a bite all day
Uncle Arthur’s back in Dartmoor
Auntie’s with the I.R.A
Grandma’s digging in the cellar
No-one knows where grandpa is
They’re a lot of smasher
Bruisers, boozers, bashers
They’re a family of savages
(Chorus)
Come along and meet ‘em
Come along and greet ‘em
Meet the family
