Femme Objet


Femme Objet
Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



Quand je te vois passer, ma belle indépendante
Au son de la musique qui se joue des bas-fonds
Suspendant ta démarche voluptueuse et lente
Pour promener l'ennui de ton regard profond
Je t'attends comme un fauve, ma tigresse d'alcôve
Dans le jeu de miroirs de tes sous-entendus
Je n'ai que la mémoire d'un triangle entrevu

Attention! La passion
Se nourrit d'obsessions
N'oublie pas l'obsession
N'admet que l'apparence
Ton imagination
Carbure à des pulsions
Dont jamais la raison
Ne connaît l'existence

Je sais qu'il est des yeux des plus mélancoliques
Qui ne recèlent point de secrets sulfureux
Des écrins sans diamants, des rythmes sans musique
Plus vides et plus profonds que l'absence de feu
Je t'attends comme un fauve, ma tigresse d'alcôve
Dans le jeu de miroirs d'un triangle entrevu
Je n'ai que la mémoire de tes sous-entendus

Attention ! La passion
Se nourrit d'obsessions
N'oublie pas l'obsession
N'admet que l'apparence
Ton imagination
Carbure à des pulsions
Dont jamais la raison
Ne connaît l'existence

Quand je te vois danser, magnifique indolente
Les hanches insolentes et la crinière mouillée
Je me dis qu'il suffit que tu sois l'apparence
Pour faire monter en moi quelques grandes marées
Qu'importe ton absence et ton indifférence
Tu n'es qu'un simulacre et j'adore ta beauté

The Boa Constrictor Ate My Wife Last Night


The Boa Constrictor Ate My Wife Last Night
Simon Stokes & The Black Whip Thrill Band



This week at the pet store I bought a snake
I brought him home with me and I called him Jake
Last night I woke up from an awful dream
The last thing that I heard was my wife scream

Wow the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
The Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
Ate my wife and ate her sister
I love that Boa Constrictor
Well the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night

He slithered from the house out to the street
And then he spied a cop upon his beat
And I have just one question
Did Jake get indigestion
Oh the Boa Constrictor ate the heat last night

Wow the Boa Constrictor ate the heat last night
The Boa Constrictor ate the heat last night
And I have just one question
Did Jake get indigestion
Oh the Boa Constrictor ate the heat last night
Take it away Thrill Band

Oh Jake returned to me late tonight
And once again I woke up in a fright
Cuz he's looking strange at me
And I can tell that he's hungry
Oh the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night

Wow the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
The Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
Ate my wife and ate her sister
I love that Boa Constrictor
Oh the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night

The Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
The Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
Ate my wife and ate her sister
I love that Boa Constrictor
Oh the Boa Constrictor ate my wife last night
Alright

Candy Store Blues


Candy Store Blues Composer(s): Eddie Beal - Nick Castle - Herb Jefferies Performer(s): Toni Harper; Maria Muldaur



Last night I dreamt that I owned a candy store
Last night I dreamt that I owned a candy store
Woke up this mornin' just like the day before

Got five pennies and I don't know what to do
Got five pennies and I don't know what to do
I need another nickel for the bubblegum I chew

There's a little wagon passin'
Every afternoon at four
And the bells they start to ringin'
Every time they pass my door

Yes, I love him
I love that good, good humour man
He's got lots of frozen custard
That's how this love began

He said, "Hey, little baby
If you didn't get enough
Don't you worry 'bout no money
You can put it on the cuff"

Yes, I love him
I love that good, good humour man
He's got lots of tutti-frutti
I could eat it by the can

Femme Sous Influence


Femme Sous Influence
Composer(s): J.M. Moreau; R. Musumarra
Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan



D'un mot d'un regard
Tu me renverses et changes l'histoire
Tu planes sur ma vie
Immobile
Comme un aigle sur le Nil
Un jour de chaleur
Tu as planté ta force et ton cœur
Sur ma terre d'argile
Trop fragile
Comme un drapeau sur une île

{Refrain:}
Les yeux fermés je t'aime à l'avance
Quand tu es loin j't'écoute à distance
Je suis toujours et sans défaillance
Une femme sous influence
Et je te suis dans tes rêves immenses
Même dans le noir je te fais confiance
Je suis au fil de ton existence
Une femme sous influence

Sous le signe de toi
Je suis née un matin dans tes bras
Et j'ai vu le jour
Pour toujours sous influence d'amour
Ascendance heureuse
Pour toi je nage en eaux dangereuses
Même quand tu as tort
Je t'aime encore
Comme un volcan dans mon corps
{au Refrain}

Tu traces les couleurs
Les lignes de mon bonheur
Entre tes mains
Court mon destin
Sans fin
{au Refrain}

The Blues Is All I Ever Had


The Blues Is All I Ever Had
Composer(s): Bobby Troup
Performer(s): Julie London



Some folks always seem to find the good things
Other folks get mixed up with the bad
Don't ask me what I know about the good things
The blues is all I ever had

To some, the earth's a world of friendly faces
For those lucky few, I'm awful glad
My world's been a string of second places
The blues is all I ever had

When I first met him, I thought that maybe
He could change this lonely life I led
When he smiled and said, "I love you, baby"
Silly girl, I b'lieved each word he said

Guess it's time for me to say "good bye" now
Didn't mean to leave you feelin' sad
Since he's gone, what is there left to try now?
The blues is all I ever had

Candy Says


Candy Says Composer(s): Lou Reed First release by: The Velvet Underground - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists



Candy says I've come to hate my body
and all that it requires in this world
Candy says I'd like to know completely
what others so discretely talk about

Candy says I hate the quiet places
that cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says I hate the big decisions
that cause endless revisions in my mind

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
If I could walk away from me

Femme Fatale


Femme Fatale
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): The Velvet Underground;
and various other artists



Here she comes, you better watch your step
She’s going to break your heart in two, it’s true
It’s not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She builds you up to just put you down, what a clown

’cause everybody knows (she’s a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she’s a femme fatale)
She’s just a little tease (she’s a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks

You’re written in her book
You’re number 37, have a look
She’s going to smile to make you frown, what a clown
Little boy, she’s from the street
Before you start, you’re already beat
She’s gonna play you for a fool, yes it’s true

’cause everybody knows (she’s a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she’s a femme fatale)
She’s just a little tease (she’s a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks

The Blues Don't Bother Me


The Blues Don't Bother Me
Performer(s): The Blues Brothers Band



If you're wonderin'
What's all the noise
I'm in the backroom
With the girls and boys
Were' discussing the blues
And they don't seem to see
The blues is all I play
The blues don't bother me

When I was a little boy
Sittin' on my papa's knee
I couldn't a been no older than two or three
He said I am a blues man
You're gonna take after me
After me
The blues is my companion
The blues don't bother me
They don't bother me
No they don't

When I go to bed at night
I'll throw on a record or two
If I didn't have these blues
I wouldn't know what to do
I need them to soothe me
To ease my misery
The blues is my companion
They don't bother me
They don't bother me
The blues don't bother me
They don't bother me
keeps me company
I got the blues
Relieves my misery
Keeps me company
The blues don't bother me
I got the blues

Candy Man (Grateful Dead)


Candy Man Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter Performer(s): Grateful Dead



Come all you pretty women
with your hair hanging down
Open up your windows 'cause
the Candyman's in town
Come on boys and gamble
Roll those laughing bones
Seven come eleven boys
I'll take your money home

Look out
Look out
The Candyman
Here he come
and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't
got no friend
till the Candyman
come round again

I come in from Memphis
where I learned to talk the jive
When I get back to Memphis
be one less man alive
Good Mornin Mr. Benson
I see you're doin well
If I had me a shotgun
I'd blow you straight to Hell

Look out
Look out
The Candyman
Here he come
and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't
got no friend
till the Candyman
come round again

Come on boys and wager
if you have got the mind
If you got a dollar boys
lay it on the line
Hand me my old guitar
Pass the whiskey round
Want you to tell everybody you meet
the Candyman's in town

Look out
Look out
The Candyman
Here he come
and he's gone again
Pretty lady ain't
got no friend
till the Candyman
come round again

Femme F.M.


Femme F.M.
Composer(s): Claude Moine; M. Gaucher
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



Je bois jusqu'à l'aube les moindres mots
D'un oiseau de nuit "Star Radio"
Qui m'emmène goûter sur ses ondes F.M.
Son "sirop" micro
Solitaire, j'attends en solo
Un sommeil noyé dans peu d'eau
Au réveil, sa voix n'est plus qu'un écho
J'éteins la radio
J'aime une femme F.M., déesse stéréo
J'aime une femme F.M., disc-jockey de nuit
Star radio, star radio
Parfois, j'suis en planque, j'la surveille
Je l'attends, elle sort du studio
Elle ignore que je suis là, je l'observe
Vivre dans mon rétro
Elle court vers un homme, ça m'énerve
Je démarre, car pour moi c'est trop
Un voyeur, c'est tout c'que j'suis bon à faire
J'allume la radio
J'aime une femme F.M., déesse stéréo
J'aime une femme F.M., disc-jockey de nuit
Star radio, star radio
J'aime une femme F.M., déesse stéréo
J'aime une femme F.M., disc-jockey de nuit
Star radio, star radio

The Bluebells Of Scotland


The Bluebells Of Scotland
(Traditional)



Oh where, tell me where is your highland laddie gone?
Oh where, tell me where is your highland laddie gone?
He's gone with streaming banners where noble deeds are done
And it's oh! in my heart I wish him safe at home
Oh where, tell me where did your highland laddie dwell?
Oh where, tell me where did your highland laddie dwell?
He dwelt in bonnie Scotland where bloom the sweet bluebells
And it's oh! in my heart I rue my laddie well

Oh what, tell me what if your highland lad be slain?
Oh what, tell me what if your highland lad be slain?
Oh no, true love will be his guide and bring him safe again
For it's oh! my heart would break if my highland lad were slain

C'est une femme la nuit qui aime autant qu elle oublie
Et qui s'y perd chaque fois je lui ressemble je crois

Amour que l'on n'attend pas
Ou bien qui s'en va

Pour chanter tous à la fois

The Blue Velvet Band


The Blue Velvet Band
Composer(s): Hank Snow
Performer(s): Hank Snow



If you listen a story I'll tell you
Of a girl who once lived in this land
A girl who was once my sweetheart
She was know as The Blue Velvet Band

On her cheeks was the first flush of nature
Her beauty, it seemed to expand
Her hair hung down in long tresses
Tied back with a blue velvet band

I can still see those tears as we parted
Of my heart broken Blue Velvet Band
As I left I told her I'd never
Come back to my old home again

Five years on the wide open spaces
Was all that my poor heart could stand
every night as I lay on my pillow
I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band

Then one night as I lay down dreaming
Of home and poor mother and dad
Like a flash by my bedside was standing
The form of my Blue Velvet Band

I started next day for my darling
Just to go back and make her my bride
But as I reached the old country depot
They told my my sweet heart has died

They laid her to rest in the churchyard
Midst the sweet summer flowers of the land
On her finger the ring I had bought her
On her head was a blue velvet band

Femme - 1983 (Ton Sourire Est Dans Mon Coeur - 1955) (Adapted from: Smile - 1936) (Italian Version: Se Mai Ti Parlassero Di Me - 2008) Composer(s): Charlie Chaplin; J. Barnel; G. Sinoué Performer(s): Dalida - 1983



Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Pour des riens mon cœur s'enflamme
Quand je suis amoureuse
Je deviens femme heureuse
Prête à toutes les folies
Tout quitter en pleine nuit
Pour aller suivre à tout prix
Ma chance

Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Mélodie ou mélodrame
Quelquefois indocile mais souvent femme fragile
Si parfois mon cœur s'ennuie
Entre ses bras je revis
Alors simplement je suis
Sa femme à lui

Avec lui je suis femme, femme

Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Pour des riens mon cœur s'enflamme
Quand je suis amoureuse
Je deviens femme heureuse
Si parfois mon cœur s'ennuie
Entre ses bras je revis
Alors simplement je suis
Sa femme

Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Même joie et même larme
Faire semblant de partir
Pour mieux le retenir
Et tant pis si ça fait mal
Tout cela m'est bien égal
Je deviens sentimentale
Et femme, sa femme à lui

The Blue Danube


The Blue Danube
Composer(s): Johann Strauss II - Sol Meyer - Del Porter - Spike Jones
Performer(s): Spike Jones



All the years have come, and the years have gone
but the oft told tale is not true
for of all the things the Danube is
the Danube is not blue
The Danube is green
what's more it ain't clean
It's green as a bean
It ain't not serene
And though the blueberry looks a little purple
And though your maple syrup looks a little murple
Don't believe what you have heard or you have saw
Oh the Danube isn't blue, it's green
Oh, the Danube is green as the grass in the spring
It's as green as the dollar you spend on a fling
It's as green as the paint that you put on the screen
Oh the blue of the Danube is greener than green
The Danube isn't blue (Am I blue? No!)
The Danube has another hue (Who? Me? You!)
It's time we all came clean, (B.O.)
'Cause the Danube isn't blue, it's green

Candy Kisses (Neil Sedaka)


Candy Kisses Composer(s): Neil Sedaka - Phil Cody Performer(s): Neil Sedaka



My old lady she's so sweet and fine
I can't help wanting her kisses all the time
I run to meet her like a kid with a dollar
To the corner candy store
It's what I'm livin' for
But I want mooore...than your candy kisses

She starts movin' I say "Honey please"
("I don't want your kisses")
I ain't foolin', you know it isn't right to tease
("I don't need your kisses")
I tell her "Sugar you're a true fine lover"
"You're as sweet as cherry pie"
But no matter how I try
I can't get high
On your candy kisses

I don't want our love to stop
("Don't stop it")
If it should stop
("Don't stop it")
My heart would break
If the sun should get to hot
("Don't stop it")
It's gonna melt away the icing on our cake

Candy kisses knock me off my feet
("I don't want your kisses")
Fill me up but leave me feelin' incomplete
("I don't need your kisses")
Fancy wrappin's and well-made trappin's
Will lead me to your door
What I'm hungry for
Is so much mooore...than your candy kisses

("Candy kisses, candy candy kisses")
("Candy kisses, candy candy kisses")

Candy kisses knock me off my feet
Fill me up but leave me incomplete
Since your wrappin's lead me to your door
It's not the only kind of love that I'm lookin' for
Candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your lovin' if you're gonna stay with me

("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")

Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me

("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")

Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me

("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")

Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me ...

Feliz


Feliz
Composer(s): Gonzaguinha
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Para quem bem viveu o amor
Duas vidas que abrem
Não acabam com a luz
São pequenas estrelas
Que correm no céu
Trajetórias opostas
Sem jamais deixar de se olhar

É um carinho guardado no cofre
De um coração que voou
É um afeto deixado nas veias
De um coração que ficou
É a certeza da eterna presença
Da vida que foi
Na vida que vai
É a saudade da boa
Feliz cantar

Que foi foi foi
Foi bom e pra sempre será
Mais mais mais
Maravilhosamente amar

The Bloke Who Invented Beer


The Bloke Who Invented Beer
Performer(s): Rolf Harris



Okay you lot, all right, all right, you fellahs, now
you're all drinking up and havin' a good time
How about a round of applause for the gent who made all this possible...
... The bloke who invented beer
Are you gonna join me in a musical tribute to this noble benefactor? (Too right!)

How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
He gave this tired old world a spark
They should have his statue in ev'ry park
Life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer

Yes, us fellahs know that the invention of beer was the greatest thing that ever happened to mankind
Ahead of electricity and airplanes and all that other stuff
But did the bloke who invented beer get the credit and recognition he deserves...
No!
No, he don't
But we don't forget him
Just look at our pub motto
Caesar was great and so was Nero, but the bloke who invented beer's a hero!
So c'mon, loosen up your tonsils and let's give it another burst
Are you ready? Well, let's go then...

Oh, how about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
We'd all be shakin' and quakin' flops
If we couldn't gargle our throats with hops
He was the first to defeat the old demon thirst
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer

How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
Though not one hist'ry book gives his name
We say he will stay in the hall of fame
Man's joys were few, till our hero brought out his brew
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer

Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer

Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer...
