D.O.A.


D.O.A. Composer(s): Rick Cobb - Ed Grundy - Steve Hill - Lee Pickens - James Rutledge - Nick Taylor Performer(s): Bloodrock



Laying here looking at the ceiling
Someone lays a sheet
across my chest

Something warm is flowing
down my fingers

Pain is flowing all through my back

I try to move my arms and there's no feeling
And when I look I see there's nothing there
The face beside me stopped it totally bleeding
The girl I knew has such a distant stare

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Then I looked straight at the attendant
His face is pale as it can be
He bends and whispers something softly
He says there's no chance for me

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Life is flowing out my body
Pain is flowing out with my blood
The sheets are red and moist where I'm lying
God in Heaven, teach me how to die

I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air
I remember
We were flying along and hit something in the air

Terrible Operation Blues


Terrible Operation Blues
Performer(s): Georgia Tom Dorsey



Bring in the next patient, nurse

Get up on this table, pull off that gown
Raise up that right leg, let that left one down
Pull off them stockings, that silk underwear
The doctor's got to cut you, mama, don't know where
You got two or three tumors, shaped like a cube
Two or three leaks in your inner tube
Bring on that ether, bring on that gas
The doctor's got to cut you, mama, yas, yas, yas
The doctor knows to fix it, the doctor knows just what to do

Oh doctor, can I have a glass of water?
Oh, not now
Oh doctor, I'm so sick!
Sh, be quiet, doctor ain't gonna hurt you
Oh, what you gonna do
with that long knife?
Oh, that's just the doctor's tools
Oh doctor, what you gon' do with that saw?
Oh, we take off legs with that, that's all
Ooooh!
Be quiet, now, just a moment
There you are, the doctor's through!
Oh doctor, what did you take out of me?
Oh, just a minute, I'll tell you, dear

Four monkey wrenches, two horse-shay
Pair of old britches and a bale of hay
Your ribs were kinda loosened, they moved about
if I hadn't sewed you up, everything woulda fell out
I put in new tubes, tightened up the exhaust
Went into your hood and cleaned your spark plugs off
Your body's kinda weak, don't be hard
From now on you'll be careful with them there connection rods
Alright, doctor!

The doctor knows to fix it, the doctor knows just what to do
Gee, doctor, but I feel better
That so?
Yes, I feel kinda like I wanna do a little messin' 'round
Fine, go ahead!
Ooooh, my my my my
That's the way patients do that come to this doctor, they don't die

Your body's kinda weak, don't be hard
From now on you'll be careful with them there connection rods
Alright, doctor!
The doctor knows to fix it, the doctor knows just what to do

My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You


My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You
Composer(s): Lee Ross; Bob Wills
Originally performed by: Ray Price
Covered by various other artists



I must say that I don't care
Hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through my heartaches start anew
And that's when I miss you most of all

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you

No matter how much I pretend
I wish I had you back again
Oh nothing else means half as much as you
Our world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
Oh my lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to youI must say that I don't care
Hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through my heartaches start anew
And that's when I miss you most of all

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you

No matter how much I pretend
I wish I had you back again
Oh nothing else means half as much as you
Our world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
Oh my lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you

D.L.G. Composer(s): Fito Paéz Performer(s): Fito Paéz; Juan Carlos Baglietto



Y se abrirá todo el cielo No será un día normal Dspués de todo Todo llega siempre de algún modo Las profecías se dan Apocalipsis de abajo Un maremoto de amor Fiesta en la calle Un orgasmo que nunca se acabe Día de resurrección Y será y será un fuego un pantallazo un rayo luz conmovedor Una tormenta una música infinita Y será y será un fuego un pantallazo un rayo luz conmovedor Una tormenta una música infinita Negro animal de trabajo Clama la luna por vos Hijo cansado te observamos pero no te amamos Cargas con todo el dolor Gente de todos los lados Vientos amigos de Dios Carguen sus armas Aunque sea cárguenlas de ganas Y tírenle al cielo su amor Y será y será un fuego un pantallazo un rayo luz conmovedor Una tormenta una música infinita y será y será un fuego un pantallazo un rayo luz conmovedor Una tormenta una música infinita

Terrible Feeling


Terrible Feeling
Composer(s): Stellman
Performer(s): Caterina Valente



If you ever feel that you want me back
I know I’d come running to you
It may hurt my pride to do that
but what else could I do
Everyone I meet turns around and says
who’d believe it could happen to you

It’s a terrible feeling to be left alone
without a love to cling to
It’s really hurting to know that someone else will own
the love he used to bring you

There were many times when I laughed at you
How I feel you’re laughing at me
What a fool I was to doubt you
when you believed in me
If I have to face life without you
then the world holds nothing for me

It’s a terrible feeling to be left alone
without a love to cling to
It’s really hurting to know that someone else will own
the love he used to bring you

It’s a terrible feeling to be left alone
without a love to cling to

My Ship


My Ship
Composer(s): Ira Gershwin; Kurt Weill
Originally performed by: Gertrude Lawrence
Covered by various other artists



My ship has sails that are made of silk
The decks are trimmed with gold
And of jam and spice there's a paradise in the hold

My ship's aglow with a million pearls
And rubies fill each bin
The sun sits high in a sapphire sky when my ship comes in

I can wait the years
Till it appears
One fine day one spring
But the pearls and such
They won't mean much if there's missing just one thing

I do not care if that day arrives
That dream need never be
If the ship I sing doesn't also bring
My own true love to me
If the ship I sing doesn't also bring my own true love to me

Terre Nouvelle


Terre Nouvelle
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



On vient de découvrir une terre nouvelle
À des millions d'années-lumière dans le ciel
Là-bas au delà des montagnes de demain
Son ciel nouveau nous bâtira des lendemains
À coup de rêves
De pelletées de bonheur
Une aube neuve qui se lève
Pour nous bâtir des jours meilleurs
Et nous faire enfin voir la vie
Comme nul ne l'avait osé
Ces merveilles à l'infini
Par les yeux de la liberté
Sans souci de l'avenir de notre planète
Qui pourrait ce désagréger, tomber en miettes
Nous partirons le coeur libre et les bras ouvert
Les yeux perdus dans tout le bleu de l'univers
Notre vieux monde
Dans l'épaisseur de la nuit
Tournera une folle ronde
Seul, avec nos millions d'ennuis
Seul, avec toutes les misères
Et le poids de tout les tourments
Que nous laisserons sur la terre
Pour nous enfuir plus librement
Et tous les hommes partiront main dans la main
Avec l'espoir de se créer des lendemains
Aux coeurs desquels vivront jusqu'à l'éternité
En paix tout les hommes de bonne volonté

Nous partirons avec aux lèvres une chansons
Prêt à bâtir une autre civilisation
Dans laquelle vivront jusqu'à l'éternité
En paix tout les hommes de bonne volonté

Ensemble (Mireille Mathieu)


Ensemble
Composer(s): J. Bouquet - J. Mason - L. Reed Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



Mon coeur en est sûr et certain
Il aime un coeur et c'est le tien
Tout seul ton coeur est triste
Tout seul mon coeur s'attriste
Un seul remède laissons-les laissons-les

Ensemble tous les deux
Ensemble ils sont heureux
Rien n'existe pour eux
Que de parler d'amour
Ensemble tous les deux
Ensemble ils ont pour eux
Un monde merveilleux
Un monde fait d'amour

Tu vois ils savent se parler
Trouver les mots les inventer
Ton coeur laisse-le faire
Puisque je sais lui plaire
Il ne te reste qu'à m'aimer à m'aimer

Ensemble tous les deux
Ensemble tout est bleu
La vie me semble un jeu
Où se gagne l'amour
Ensemble tous les deux
Ensemble si tu veux
Nous vivrons tous les deux
Un merveilleux amour
Mon amour mon amour

It's time you walked away and set me free I must move away, 'n' leave you be It has been good to us my friend Wait, and see how it will end We come and go as we please (Grace: We come and go as we please) (Paul: That's how it has to be) Here in this ocean, the near and holy Too many days I've left unstoned If you don't mind, happiness Purple pleasure-fields in the sun Ah don't you know I'm runnin' home (Grace: Don't you know I'm runnin' home) (Paul: To a place, for you unknown) I take great peace in your sitting there Searching for myself, I find a place there I see the people of the world Where they are and what they could be I can but dance behind your smile (Grace: I can but dance behind your smile) (Paul: You were the world to me for a while)

Terre De France


Terre De France
Composer(s): Étienne Roda-Gil - Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc



Nous sommes des gens
Parfois gais
Quand on est triste
Il fait mauvais
Ce sont les choses du temps
Qui ont fait nos tempéraments

Tu peux bien changer de nom
Le visage de tes régions, de nos frontières
Accrocher des fleurs fanées sur nos calvaires
Sur nos calvaires

Tu es ma terre
Mon désert qui s'en va
Tu es ma terre, ma mère et mon hiver...

Nous sommes des oiseaux géants
Nous ne voyageons pas souvent
Nous avons l'amour du nid
Que certains appellent patrie

Tu peux bien changer de nom
Et le cours de tes saisons, de nos rivières
Parsemer de tâches bleues le blé qui lève
Le blé qui lève
Tu es ma terre, mon désert qui s'en va
Tu es ma terre, ma mère et mon combat

Tu peux bien changer de nom
Inventer des religions et des chimères
J'ai dessiné sur ton dos comme un étang
Où flotte mes rèves

Tu es ma terre, mon désert qui s'en va
Tu es ma terre, ma mère qui est là...

Nous sommes des gens
Parfois gais
Quand on est triste
Il fait mauvais
Ce sont les choses du temps
Qui ont fait nos tempéraments

Comme Des Connards


Comme Des Connards
English Title: My Sharona
Composer(s): Michaël Youn
Performer(s): Les Conards
(Originally performed by: The Knack)



Est-ce que vous voulez du rock fort?
Hein? Quoi??
Euh nan... Est-ce que vous voulez du Hard Rock?
Ah ouais!

Oh maman dis-moi pourquoi, oh oui pourquoi, je suis né en levant l' doigt..
Comme un connard
Après dans la cours d' récré, oui enloosé, je vendais mes crottes de nez
Comme un connard
Depuis cette époque, avec mes potes, dans les soirées on finit tous en short
et dans les chiottes on vomit nos entrailles...
Comme des connards

Quand on voit une caisse de keufs, ah juste devant, on la double sans clignotant
Comme des connards
Si on couche avec des filles, avec des meufs, on s'endort en 2 secondes 9
Comme des connards
Non pas monogames, ni polygames, on aime lécher les vitrines d'Amsterdam,
Vive les putes, une turlute et on s' taille....
Comme des connards

On prend le métro sans tickets, au tourniquet, on pique la place des mémés
Ouais, comme des connards!
De toute façon on s'en fout, on est des fous, on ne sera jamais vieux
Parce qu'on est des jeunes!
Comme des connards
Les déclarations d'impositions on les paye pas, on attend comme des cons,
De se prendre les 10% de majoration

J'aimerais être un oiseau
Faire cui-cui
Voler super haut
Être libre
Comme le vent

Et chier sur les passants!
1, 2, 3, 4!
C'est notre vraie nature
C'est d'avoir 14 ans
C'est conduire une voiture
Sans toucher au volant
C'est aller droit dans le mur
Mais y aller en s'marrant
Mais y aller en s'marrant!!
Motherf*****

Comme des connards

(Down At) Papa Joe's


(Down At) Papa Joe's Composer(s): Jerry Smith Performer(s): Dixie Belles; The Coasters; Jo Ann Castle



Say, there's a place in New Orleans
That serves fried chicken with turnip greens
Crawfish bisque that'll treat you right
And Papa Joe plays there ev'ry night

A little dark haired beauty says "Step right in"
And you can bet a full dollar she's be yo' friend
And ev'rybody there has a toler'ble time
Down at Papa Joe's

Papa Joe's got a swingin' band
You can rock and roll to Dixieland
The customers knows it's the place to go
Down at Papa Joe's

A little waitress comes to set you down
She's got the best frog legs in town
There's a welcome sign hangin' on the door
So don't you be afraid to ask for more

Now the only time Joe's closed at night
Is when the Police come and turns out the light
They get a little mad 'cause they don't fight
Down at Papa Joe's

It's thicker than fleas on a monkey's back
But the folks down there, they like it like that
They live it up and they all come back
Down at Papa Joe's

Terrapin Station


Terrapin Station
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter
Performer(s): Grateful Dead; Joe Gallant & Illuminati



Inspiration, move me brightly
Light the song with sense of colour
Hold away despair
More than this I will not ask
Faced with mysteries deep and vast
Statements just seem vain at last
Some rise, some fall, some climb
To get to Terrapin

Counting stars by candlelight
Some are dim but one is bright
The spiral light on Venus
Rising first and shining best
Oh, from the north-west corner
Of a brand new crescent moon
Where crickets and cicadas sing
A rare and different tune
Terrapin Station
In the shadow of the moon
Terrapin Station
And I know we'll be there soon

(Terrapin)
I can't figure out
(Terrapin)
If it's the end or beginning
(Terrapin)
But the train's put it brakes on
(Terrapin)
And the whistle is screaming
Terrapin

I really love you and I mean you

My September Love
Composer(s): Tolchard Evans; Richard Mullan
Performer(s): David Whitfield;
Robert Earl; Spike Milligan



I remember my September love
In my heart I keep the memory of
Lazy autumn days in all their glory
Nights that saw the start of our love story

I see once more the leaves that match her golden hair
In my dreams I find her standing there
And in December, still glows the embers
Of my September love

I see once more the leaves that match her golden hair
In my dreams I find her standing there
And in December, still glows the embers
Of my September love

Terra Amata


Terra Amata
Composer(s): Brice Homs - Michel Fugain
Performer(s): Michel Fugain



Les yeux dans l'eau
La mer à boire
Chante l'homme au cœur de sanglots
Avec deux accords de guitare
et dessus quelques mots
Sodade si, sodade no

Dans la prison
De ma mémoire
Y a trop d'amis partis trop tôt
S'il faut fermer les yeux pour voir
J'en ai déjà vu trop
Sodade si, sodade no

ô ma terra amata
Brise mes chaînes ou brise mes os
L'exil est comme une île à terre
Fais de ta rage mon radeau

Démocratie, mon amie
Fille à peau noire
Viens danser sur mes pays chauds
Un tiers du monde abandonné
C'est bien trop cher payé
Sodade aqui, sodade alèm

ô ma terra amata
Brise mes chaînes ou brise mes os
L'exil est comme une île à terre
Fais de ta rage mon bateau

O ma terra amata
Brise mes chaînes ou brise ma voix
L'exil est comme une île à terre
Fais de ta rage mon combat
