Gesundheit!
Nosdrovia!
A Saluté!
Skol!
Lochaim!
Prosit!

Give-it me a cocktail
When I am blue and droopy
And then I'll dance a Polka
And make-it lots of whoopee

I work-it in a coal mine
Things are pretty black
But tonight the drinks on me
I cash-it my paycheck

Ev'rybody have a drink
Let's have fun together
I got plenty money
So catch-it double header

Bartender please take care my friends
Drinks for ladies and gents
I got all kinds money
Thirty-two dollars and forty-five cents

Have-it anything you like
Even rum and Coke-it
Just give glass plain whiskey
Rum and Coke it make me choke-it

Fill up your glass with vishnik
We gonna have a great big picnic
Ev'rythink she's in the pink
Ev'rybody have a drink

Ev'rybody have a drink
Don't nobody start trouble
Some smart Alec like a fight
I give it trouble double

I am peaceful citizen
Don't like too drunk or make it
When I go too fast
I pull the emergency brake-it

Dat's the way I like it
Lotsa Polkas, lotsa drinking
Pretty soon you don't watch out
Ev'rybody's stinking

Bartender, why you holler
Oh, I owe you sixteen dollar
????? the water in the sink
Ev'rybody have a drink

Tonight (The Move)


Tonight
Composer(s): Roy Wood
Performer(s): The Move



That's the road
it's over there
and leading down to nowhere
This is the age when you're allowed
to have your own care
if you will have some pride to plan
your life ahead instead of waiting
'til you're old in your bed

I'll be over tonight
if you say you might
I'll be over tonight
indeed to put you right

well I know what you wrote
on your overcoat
but don't want to take it too far
oh I think you won't
but I know that you don't
you always say that you are

I'm so used to waiting that's entirely
your affair child don't feel restricted
by the weightless views you're given

if you will have some pride to fight
and front ahead
instead of saving
'til your young heart is dead

I'll be over tonight...

Never let the riches that may ever be within you

so self concerned with all the love
that you have been through

if you will have some pride to plan
your life ahead instead of waiting
'til you're old in your bed

I'd like to run away from you
but if I were to leave you I would die
I'd like to brake the chains you put
around me
and yet I'll never try
no matter what you do you do you drive me crazy
I'd rather be alone
but then I know my life would be
so empty
as soon as you were gone
impossible to live with you
but I could never live without you
For whatever you do/For whatever you do
I never, never, never
want to be with anyone but you
you make me sad, you make me die
you make me laugh, you make me cry
you make me long for you
you make me live, you make me die
you make me laugh, you make me cry
you make me cry for me
I hate you, hten I love you, then I love you, then I hate you
then I love you more
for whatever you do
I never, never, never
want to be in love with anyone but you
you treat me wrong, you treat me right
you let me be, you make me fight with you
I could never live without you
you make me high, you bring me down
you set me free, you hold me bound to you
I hate you, then I love you
then I love you, then I hate you, then I love you more
For whatever you do/For whatever you do
I never, never, never
want to be in love with anyone but you
I never, never, never
I never, never, never
I never, never, never
want to be in love with anyone but you.....but you

Be
Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him
There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
While the Sun God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way
And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the soul
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it
While the sand
Would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
While the Sun God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way

Lonely Looking Sky
Lonely looking sky
Lonely sky, lonely looking sky
And being lonely
Makes you wonder why (2x)
Lonely looking sky (3x)
Lonely looking night
Lonely night, lonely looking night
And being lonely
Never made it right (2x)
Lonely looking night (3x)
Sleep we sleep
For we may dream
While we may
Dream we dream
for we may wake
One more day (2x)
Glory looking day
Glory day, glory looking day
And all it's glory
Told a simple way
Behold it if you may
Glory looking day (2x)
Lonely looking night

Skybird
Skybird
make your sail
and every heart will know
of the tale
Songbird
make your tune
for none may sing it
just as you do
Look at the way I glide
caught on the wind's lazy tide
sweetly how it sings
rally each heart a the sight
of your silver wings
Skybird, skybird
Nightbird
find your way
for none may know it
just as you may

À mon chagrin s'ajoutent
Tous mes doutes
Sur l'avenir de nous

Au coeur d'une avalanche
De silence
Je t'imagin' partout

Donne-moi de tes nouvelles
Vite appelle
J'en ai tellement besoin

Je prie Dieu et les Anges
Que tu changes
Que tu reviennes enfin

Je pass' des heur's,des jours, et des nuits blanches
À t'espérer plus que tout
Pourtant je l'avoue
Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore ....
Ca va me rendre fou

On vivait l'un pour l'autre
De tell'sorte
Qu'on n'se quittait jamais

On dit que les épreuves
Sont la preuve
Qu'y a rien d'plus fort qu'aimer

Je pass' des heur's,des jours, et des nuits blanches
À t'espérer plus que tout
Pourtant je l'avoue
Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore ....
Ca va me rendre fou

Je t'en supplie
Entends ce cri
Et même si tu vas refair' ta vie

Je m'en remets
À ta pitié
Je suis l'esclave et toi ma vie brisée

Je t'aime et je t'en veux et j'ai si mal que je pardonne tout
Le coeur à genoux
Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore ....
Ca va me rendre fou

Je t'aime et je t'en veux et j'ai si mal que je pardonne tout
Le coeur à genoux
Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore ....
Ca va me rendre fou

Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore ....
Ca va me rendre fou

Va-t-en dire au vent qui t'amène
Que le monde n'est rien sans toi
Il n'y a que l'amour qui t'entraîne
À monter plus haut chaque fois

Et caché derrière ton épaule
Il y a le regard si doux
D'une femme qui sait ton rôle
Et qui t'aide à tenir debout

C'est le vent qui sonne à ta porte
Mais le destin n'existe pas
Il sera ce que tu apportes
Tout ce que tu aimes est en toi

Tu fabriques une route neuve
Que bien d'autres suivront un jour
C'est pour mieux te mettre à l'épreuve
Qu'une étoile te suit toujours

Un bonheur quand il te traverse
N'est déjà plus qu'un souvenir
Il faut du courage à l'inverse
Pour ne pas trop le retenir

L'horizon s'éloigne à mesure
Qu'on avance pour le toucher
Il nous montre une vie plus dure
Moins facile à apprivoiser

Jonathan ouvre-moi les ailes
Le vent souffle vers l'avenir
Et le temps m'emporte vers celle
Qui m'apprend à m'appartenir

Va-t-en dire au vent qui m'appelle
Que j'irai jusqu'au bout du temps
Pour revivre une vie près d'elle
Entourés de tous nos enfants

Va-t-dire au vent qui t'amène
Que le monde n'est rien sans toi
Qu'il n'y a que l'amour qui t'entraîne
À voler plus haut chaque fois

Et caché derrière mon épaule
Il y a le regard si doux
De la femme qui sait mon rôle
Et que j'aime au-delà de tout

Jonathan ouvre-moi les ailes
L'univers n'est pas assez grand
Et les mots seraient infidèles
À décrire ce qui nous attend

La beauté des mondes invisibles
Qu'on dévouvre en fermant les yeux
Et l'amour des choses impossibles
Qui sont vraies quand on est heureux...

Va-t-en dire au vent qui t'amène
Que le monde n'est rien sans toi
Il n'y a que l'amour qui t'entraîne
À monter plus haut chaque fois

Et caché derrière mon épaule
Il y a le regard si doux
De la femme qui sait mon rôle
Et qui m'aide à tenir debout...

Le vent faisait l'amour avec le sable
Dans un château d'étoiles
La lune promenait le long des vagues
Sa flamme douce et pâle

Et nous avions le coeur à marée haute
Le coeur prêt à chanter
On se sentait si bien l'un contre l'autre
Qu'on s'est mis à danser

On a dansé tout seuls sur cette plage
Et je garde cette image...
Jusqu'au lever du jour
Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits
Et danseras toujours

Il n'y avait ni piste ni musique
Au bal de l'océan
Mais j'entendais des pages symphoniques
Dans les violons du vent

On s'est aimés nous deux sur cette plage
Dans un long, très long voyage...
La peine est de retour...
Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits
Et danseras toujours

Mes souvenirs
Nos souvenirs sont des photos
Des mots sans avenir
Tu es si loin
Tu est trop loin
Tu ne pourras
Jamais me revenir

Je t'aime et te déteste
Puis je t'aime et te déteste, puis je t'aime...
Toi la haine et l'amour...
Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits
Et danseras toujours

Hello Joe, whatta you know?
(We need a hit, so here I go)
(Ball one, Yea!)
(Ball two, Yea!)
(Strike one, Booo!)
(Strike two, Kill that umpire!)
(Yea! A case of Wheaties)

He started baseball's famous streak
That's got us all aglow
He's just a man and not a freak

He tied the mark at forty-four
July the 1st, you know
Since then he's hit a good twelve more

From coast to coast that's all you'll hear
Of Joe the one man show
He's glorified the horsehide sphere

(We want you on our side)

He'll live in baseball's Hall of Fame
He got there blow by blow
Our kids will tell their kids his name

(We dream of Joey with the light brown bat)
(Joe, Joe DiMaggio)
We want you on our side

And now they speak in whispers low
Of how they stopped our Joe
One night in Cleveland
Oh, Oh, Oh
Goodbye streak DiMaggio

I've been watching you now for a long long time
I've been thinking to myself I'd like to make you mine
Too many nights I've been alone alone on my bed
I've been thinking to myself now we should be wed

Oh oh baby
Please now baby
Come on baby say you'll be mine tonight
Oh oh tonight

I heard the waves rushing in I made a resolution
That living together must be the only solution
I don't care what your people say about me
I only know we'll rock rock the family tree

Oh oh baby
Please now baby
Come on baby say you'll be mine tonight
Oh oh tonight

Soms wil ik wel eens van je af
Gewoon m'n leven leven zonder jou
Maar denk ik daar dan over na
Weet ik niet hoe ik mij dan voelen zou
Soms heb ik echt genoeg van jou
Maar dat zegt niet dat ik niet van je hou
Al iriteert mij soms ineens ook alles wat je zegt
Of wat je doet

Je stem, je lach, je voetstap of je zwijgen
Kan ik zo genoeg van krijgen
Dat probleem doet me pijn
Want waarom, waarom, waarom
Kan ik zonder jou niet echt gelukkig zijn

Soms kan ik hele nachten lang niet slapen
Omdat ik 't niet meer weet
Toch ben ik bang om weg te gaan
Omdat ik jou toch zeker nooit vergeet

Je stem, je lach, maar ook je ergernissen
Zou ik heel gauw toch wel missen
Dat probleem doet me pijn
Want waarom, waarom, waarom
Kan ik zonder jou niet echt gelukkig zijn

Vandaag verdriet, maar morgen niet
Steeds altijd weer 't zelfde lied met jou
Ineens soms, op een blijde dag
Krijg ik van jou een lach
En niet een snauw

Zo haat of liefde, haat of liefde
Zegevieren in m'n verd're leven
Dat probleem doet me pijn
Want waarom, waarom, waarom
Kan ik zonder jou niet echt gelukkig zijn

Zo haat of liefde, haat of liefde
Zegevieren in m'n verd're leven
Dat probleem doet me pijn
Want waarom, waarom, waarom
Kan ik zonder jou niet echt gelukkig zijn

Zo haat of liefde, haat of liefde
Zegevieren in m'n verd're leven
Dat probleem doet me pijn
Want waarom, waarom, waarom
Kan ik zonder jou niet echt gelukkig zijn...

Jolly Roger


Jolly Roger
Composer(s): Adam Ant; Marco Pirroni
Performer(s): Adam & The Ants



In days of old, when ships were bold
Just like the men who sailed them
And if they showed us disrespect
We'd tie them up and flail them
Often men of low degree
And often men of steel
Who'd make you walk the plank alone
Or haul you 'round the keel

Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
It's your money that we want
And your money we shall have!

Of all the pirates on the seas
The worst of them was Blackbeard
So damnable a fiend from hell
He was the one they most feared
Any man who sailed with him
Was taking quite a chance
He'd hang them from the gallows
Just to see if they could dance (ha! ha!)

Tonada De Un Viejo Amor
Composer(s): Falu - Davalos
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Y nunca te he de olvidar
en la arena me escribias
el viento lo fue borrando
y estoy mas solo mirando el mar

Que lindo cuando una vez
bajo el sol del mediodia
se abrio tu boca en el beso
como el damasco lleno de miel

Herida la de tu boca
que lastima sin dolor
no tengo miedo al invierno
como tu recuerdo lleno de sol

Quisiera volverte a ver
sonreir junto a la espuma
tu pelo selto en el viento
como un torrente de trigo y luz

Yo se que no vuelve mas
el verano en que me amabas
que es ancho y negro el olvido
y entra el otoño en mi corazón

Something bad is happening to me
And it has to do with all of you I see
Such a change I have never knew before
But it seems that I have pushed love out the door

I hate people
I hate people
I hate people
I hate people

In a bad mood in a good mood
I never know which one to show
You always want what you don't have

I hate people
I hate people

Jolly Mon Sing


Jolly Mon Sing
Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett
Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett; Chuck St. Troy;
W.O. Smith Music School Singers



There is a tale that the Island people tell
Don't care if it is true 'cause I love it so well
Jolly Mon sing for his supper every night
The people fed him well 'cause he treated them so right
Oh oh oh oh Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh make Orion ring

And they wanted him to sing on the island near and far
He always found his way by Orion lucky star
He'd tell them of their joys, he'd tell them of their woes
They loved to see him come, they'd hate to see him go
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the music ring

He was makin' his way home on a dark and stormy night
When he heard a cry for help, he saw a flashin' light
When he reached the other boat and offered them a hand
They said, "Give us all your cargo" as the took a pirate stand
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, give 'em everything

"Jolly Mon it's over sing your last song very well"
They tossed him in the ocean 'cause their hearts were made in Hell
Came along a dolphin, he said, "Jolly Mon hello!
I've always loved your singing, climb aboard, don't let go"
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the oceans ring

The night was filled with magic, they bid the sea goodbye
They swam into the heavens, they stayed up in the sky
And all the Island people when they wish upon a star
See the Dolphin and the Jolly Mon who tell them where they are
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the heavens ring

Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the magic ring!

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh Jolly Mon sing

Tonada De La Muerte


Tonada De La Muerte
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Desde el día que me alumbra
hijo me llama la muerte
y así repite mi suerte
entre penumbra y penumbra
Pero la luz me deslumbra
y siento afán de guardarla
verle nacer y sembrarla
para que nazcan ventanas
y salgo a fundar mañanas
pese a la muerte y su charla

La muerte ronda conmigo
hasta muy tarde en la noche
yo voy a pie y ella en coche
silenciosa, de testigo
Sabe que soy su enemigo
su hijo desobediente
por eso silba entre dientes
una tonada de aviso
y yo aún sin permiso
sueño más resplandeciente

La muerte madre y consejo
rompe afilar la guadaña
me alza la voz, me regaña
porque no espero a ser viejo
Traspasando su entrecejo
llego al fondo del secreto
y con crecido respeto
veo como se deslizan
dos lágrimas por las lisas
mejillas de su esqueleto

I Hate Everything


I Hate Everything
Composer(s): Gary Harrison; Keith Stegall
Performer(s): George Strait; The Country Dance Kings



He was sittin' there beside me
Throwin' doubles down
When he ordered up his third one
He looked around
Than he looked at me
Said I do believe
I'll have one more
He said I hate this bar
And I hate to drink
But on second thought
Tonight I think
I hate everything

Than he opened up his billfold
And threw a twenty down
And a faded photograph fell out
And hit the ground
And I picked it up
He said thank you bud
I put it in his hand
He said I probably outa' throw this one away
Cause she's the reason I feel this way
Why I hate everything

Well, I hate my job
And I hate my life
And If it weren't for my two kids
I'd hate my ex-wife
I know I should move on
And try to start again
But I just cant get over her
Leavin' me for him
Then he shook his head
And looked down at his ring
And he said I hate everything

Said that one bedroom apartment
Where I get my mail
Is really not a home
It's more like a jail
With a swimmin' pool
And a parkin' lot view
Man its just great
I hate summer, winter, fall and spring
Red and yellow, purple, blue and green
I hate everything

I hate my job
And I hate my life
And If it weren't for my two kids
I'd hate my ex-wife
I know I should move on
And try to start again
But I just can't get over her
Leavin' me for him
Then he shook his head
And looked down at his ring
And he said I hate everything

So I pulled out my phone
And I called my house
I said Babe I'm commin' home
We're gonna work this out
I paid for his drinks
And I told him thanks
Thanks for everything

Jolly Holiday


Jolly Holiday
Composer(s): Richard M. Sherman; Robert B. Sherman
Performer(s): Julie Andrews;
and various other artists



Bert:
Ain't it a glorious day?
Right as a mornin' in May
I feel like I could fly
'Ave you ever seen the grass so green?
Or a bluer sky?

Oh, it's a jolly 'oliday with Mary
Mary makes your 'eart so light!
When the day is gray and ordinary
Mary makes the sun shine bright!
Oh, 'appiness is bloomin' all around 'er
The daffodils are smilin' at the dove
When Mary 'olds your 'and you feel so grand
Your 'eart starts beatin' like a big brass band
It's a jolly 'oliday with Mary
No wonder that it's Mary that we love!

Chorus
Oh, it's a jolly 'oliday with Mary
Mary makes your 'eart so light!
When the day is gray and ordinary
Mary makes the sun shine bright!
Oh, 'appiness is bloomin' all around 'er
The daffodils are smilin' at the dove
When Mary 'olds your 'and you feel so grand
Your 'eart starts beatin' like a big brass band
It's a jolly 'oliday with Mary
No wonder that it's Mary that we love!

Mary Poppins:
Now then what'd be nice
We'll start with raspberry ice
And then some cakes and tea
Order what you will
There'll be no bill
It's complimentary

Oh, it's a jolly holiday with you, Bert
Gentlemen like you are few
Though your just a diamond in the rough, Bert
Underneath your blood is blue!
You'd never think of pressing your advantage
Forbearance is the hallmark of your creed
A lady needn't fear when you are near
Your sweet gentility is crystal clear!
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with you, Bert
A jolly, jolly holiday with you!

Bert and Chorus:
It's true that Mavis and Sybil 'ave ways that are winning
And Prudence and Gwendolyn set your 'eart spinning
Phoebe's delightful, Maude is disarming
Janice, Felicia, Lydia - charming
Cynthia's dashing, Vivian's sweet
Stephanie's smashing, Priscilla a treat
Veronica, Millicent, Agnes, and Jane
Convival company, time and again
Drocas and Phyllis and Glynis are sorts
I'll agree are three jolly good sports
But cream of the crop, tip of the top
It's Mary Poppins, and there we stop!

Ton Style


Ton Style
Composer(s): Léo Ferré
Performer(s): Léo Ferré



Tous ces cris de la rue ces mecs ces magasins
Où je te vois dans les rayons comme une offense
Aux bijoux de trois sous aux lingeries de rien
Ces ombres dans les yeux des femmes quand tu passes
Tous ces bruits tous ces chants et ces parfums passants
Quand tu t'y mets dedans ou quand je t'y exile
Pour t'aimer de plus loin comme ça en passant
Tous ces trucs un peu dingues tout cela c'est ton style

Ton style c'est ton cul c'est ton cul c'est ton cul
Ton style c'est ma loi quand tu t'y plies salope!
C'est mon sang à ta plaie c'est ton feu à mes clopes
C'est l'amour à genoux et qui n'en finit plus
Ton style c'est ton cul c'est ton cul c'est ton cul

Tous ces ports de la nuit ce môme qu'on voudrait bien
Et puis qu'on ne veut plus dès que tu me fais signe
Au coin d'une réplique enfoncée dans ton bien
Par le sang de ma grappe et le vin de ta vigne
Tout cela se mêlant en mémoire de nous
Dans ces mondes perdus de l'an quatre-vingt mille
Quand nous n'y serons plus et quand nous renaîtrons
Tous ces trucs un peu fous tout cela c'est ton style

Ton style c'est ton cul c'est ton cul c'est ton cul
Ton style c'est ton droit quand j'ai droit à ton style
C'est ce jeu de l'enfer de face et puis de pile
C'est l'amour qui se tait quand tu ne chantes plus
Ton style c'est ton cul c'est ton cul c'est ton cul

A tant vouloir connaître on ne connaît plus rien
Ce qui me plaît chez toi c'est ce que j'imagine
A la pointe d'un geste au secours de ma main
A ta bouche inventée au-delà de l'indigne
Dans ces rues de la nuit avec mes yeux masqués
Quand tu ne reconnais de moi qu'un certain style
Quand je fais de moi-même un autre imaginé
Tous ces trucs imprudents tout cela c'est ton style

Ton style c'est ton cul c'est ton cul c'est ton cul
Ton style c'est ta loi quand je m'y plie salope!
C'est ta plaie c'est mon sang c'est ma cendre à tes clopes
Quand la nuit a jeté ses feux et qu'elle meurt
Ton style c'est ton cœur c'est ton cœur c'est ton cœur
