Saturday Gigs
Saturday Gigs
Composer(s): Ian Hunter
Performer(s): Mott the Hoople; Ian Hunter
Sixty-nine was cheapo wine
Have a good time
What your sign?
Float up to the Roundhouse
On a Sunday afternoon
In Seventy we all agreed
A King's Road flat was the place to be
'Cause Chelsea girls are the best in the world for company
In Seventy-one all the people come
Bust a few seats but it's just in fun
Take the Mick out of Top of the Pops
We play better than they do
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
In Seventy-two we was born to lose
We slipped down snakes into yesterday's news
I was ready to quit
But then we went to Croydon
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
The tickets for the fantasy were twelve and six a time
A fairy tale on sale
Oh, Seventy-three was a jambouree
We were the dudes and the dudes were we
(oh oh oh oh oh)
Did you see the suits and the platform boots?
(oh dear, oh boy, ...)
In Seventy-four on the Broadway tour
We didn't much like dressing up no more
Don't wanna be hip - but thanks for a great trip
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
But now the kids pay a couple of quid
'Cause they need it just the same
It's all a game
A grown-up game
But you got off on those Saturday gigs
And we did, we did
'Cause you got off on those Saturday gigs
And we did, we did
And we got off on those Saturday gigs
And you did, you did
And we got off on those Saturday gigs
'Cause you did, you did
Don't you ever forget us
We'll never forget you
We're going to sleep now
You better be good, right? (ha ha ha)
See you next time [...?]
So long for now

Mummer's Carol
Mummer's Carol
A Glorious angel from heaven came unto the Virgin Maid
Strange News and tidings of great joy
the humble Mary had
the humble Mary had
Each mortal man remembers well
When Christ came down from Heaven
'Twas for our sins and wicked ways
His precious blood was given
His precious blood was given
Each mortal man remembers well
When Christ was put to scorn
He was taken to the judgement seat
and crowned with the thorn
and crowned with the thorn
Each mortal man remembers well
When Christ our Saviour died
He was crucified upon the tree
With theives on either side
With theives on either side
Each mortal man remembers well
When Christ died on the rood
'Twas for our sins and wicked ways
Christ shed his precious blood
Christ shed his precious blood
Each mortal man remembers well
When Christ was wrapped in clay
He was taken to a sepulchre
Where never man did lay
Where never man did lay
God bless your house, your children too
Your cattle and your store
The Lord increase you day by day
And give you more and more
And give you more and more

Saturation
Saturation
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
They left me, leaving my house on fire, me running round
got out through the window.
While clinging to the skirts of fate
was not my idea of fun
I'll jump to it gladly
The town was filled with smoke and hate
Came to my senses just too late
to realize that all I ever owned was borrowed
I thanked them for having shown
me that nothing ever really belongs to anyone
They burned my books and they broke my car
and gave the dog to a man who used him for breeding
They felled my trees and they tramped flowers and threw
the kitten into my new pool
The same things done to other men had made them run away from the city
This being the case, I joined them there and breathing air spent
the night with these new friends

Mrs. Santa Claus
Mrs. Santa Claus
Composer(s): Jack Fulton; Harple; Lindsay Steele
Performer(s): Nat King Cole;
and various other artists
Who feeds the reindeer all their hay
Who wraps the gifts and packs the sleigh
Who's helping Santa every day
Mrs. Santa Claus
Who keeps his red suit looking nice
Who does he turn to for advice
Who gives the brownies all their spice
Mrs. Santa Claus
She pitter-patters all around the workshop
The whole year long
Amid the happy clatter of the workshop
She sings a very merry Christmas song
Who reads the notes from girls and boys
Turns in the order for their toys
Who fills every wondrous heart with joys
Mrs. Santa Claus
She pitter-patters all around the workshop
The whole year long
Amid the happy clatter of the workshop
She sings a very merry Christmas song
Who reads the notes from girls and boys
Turns in the order for their toys
Who fills every wondrous heart with joys

Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five
I can see no reason
But you're acting so strange
Now put your trust in me
You should try for a change
And I'll be satisfied with you, girl
I'll be satisfied with you
You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see
Now don't be too concerned
About what your friends might say
Cause you're with me tonight
And I'm gonna make you stay
Cause I'll be satisfied with you, girl
I'll be satisfied with you
And you'll be satisfied with me, wait and see
Yes, I'll be satisfied with you, girl
I'll be satisfied with you
You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see

Mr. Mistletoe
Mr. Mistletoe
Performer(s): Lynn Anderson
Mr. Mistletoe everywhere you go
you put mistletoe up above
Every Christmas time you will alway find
Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
He comes round at Christmas season
he gives us all the reason
To steal a kiss from someone that we know
And although you’ll never see him
you know that it must be him
'Cause everywhere you go there’s mistletoe
When you’re kissed below a piece of mistletoe
by someone you know remember then
Somewhere a little Elf is laughing to himself
Mr. Mistletoe has done it again
He comes round at Christmas season...
Just like Santa Claus we love him
because happiness is all he’s thinking of
And that’s why we’ll find every Christmas time
Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
Mr. Mistletoe and people in love

Satisfied Mind
Satisfied Mind
Composer(s): Jack Rhodes; Joe Hayes
First release by: Porter Wagoner - 1956
Covered by multiple other artists
How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I could do things my way
But little they know that it's so hard to find
Once rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
Once I was winning in fortune and fame
Everything I could wish for to get a start in life's game
Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Money won't buy back your youth when you're old
A friend when yuou're lonely or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is over, my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt
But one things for certain, when it comes muy time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind

Satin Pillows
Satin Pillows
Composer(s): Bob Tubert; Sonny James
First release by: Bobby Vinton - 1965
Covered by: Sandy Posey - 1966
Satin pillows to cry on
Satin pillows to cry on
You've got nothing else to rely on
You gave up the most precious thing in life
You turned from love to be a rich man's wife
The man you married is colder than all his gold
You're something he bought to keep from growing old
Now you've got satin pillows to cry on
Satin pillows tro cry on
You've got nothing else to rely on
And you've got fancy dresses and big cars
Diamonds that outshine the brightest stars
But diamonds can't replace the love we knew
They won't keep you warm like my arms used to
Now you've got satin pillows to cry on
Satin pillows to cry on
You've got nothing else to rely on
Satin pillows to cry on
Satin pillows to cry on

Morgen, Kinder, Wird's Was Geben
Morgen, Kinder, Wird's Was Geben
Composer(s): Philipp von Bartsch; Carl Gottlieb Hering
Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben
Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben
morgen werden wir uns freun!
Welch ein Jubel, welch ein Leben
wird in unsrem Hause sein!
Einmal werden wir noch wach
heißa, dann ist Weihnachtstag!
Wie wird dann die Stube glänzen
von der großen Lichterzahl!
Schöner als bei frohen Tänzen
ein geputzter Kronensaal
Wißt ihr noch wie vor'ges Jahr
es am Heil'gen Abend war?
Wißt ihr noch mein Räderpferdchen
Malchens nette Schäferin
Jettchens Küche mit den Herden
und dem blankgeputzten Zinn?
Heinrichs bunten Harlekin
mit der gelben Violin?
Welch ein schöner Tag ist morgen!
Viele Freunde hoffen wir
uns're lieben Elternsorgen
lange, lange schon dafür
o gewiß wer sie nicht ehrt
ist der ganzen Lust nicht wert

Satin Green Shutters
Satin Green Shutters
Composer(s): Chris de Burgh
Performer(s): Chris de Burgh
Where your love is, put your heart, guard these moments well
Where your dreams are, put your hopes, you know they will not fail you
When the sun rises in the morning, you will wake up and find her yawning
When the wind blows strong and cold, she'll be with you until you grow old
Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do if your dreams came true?
I would build a lovely house with satin green shutters, it would be lovely
The most lovely house in the world...
And I would sing a lovely song with you in my mind, and you in my eyes
The most lovely song in the world...
I would write it down on the wall, just for you, just for you
And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days
When you're sad and feeling low, you're on your own with nowhere to go
Make believe that she is gone, play your guitar and write a song for her
Write down the words about how you cried when you woke up weeping
'Cos you thought that she had died, and you heard her breathing
Through your pain and you held her close and cried all over again
Where your love is, put your heart, oh what would you do if your dreams came true?
And inside my lovely house with satin green shutters, there would be children
The most lovely children in the world...
And even when skies are grey, we would be happy, for we have love
The most lovely love in the world
I would write it down on the wind, just for you, just for you
And I would hold you in my arms for the rest of my days

Morgen Kommt Der Weihnachtsmann
Morgen Kommt Der Weihnachtsmann
Composer(s): Hoffmann von Fallersleben
Morgen kommt der Weihnachtsmann, kommt mit seinen Gaben
Trommel, Pfeifen und Gewehr, Fahn und Säbel und noch mehr
Ja ein ganzes Kriegesheer möcht ich gerne haben
Bring uns, lieber Weihnachtsmann, bring auch morgen, bringe
Musketier und Grenadier, Zottelbär und Panthertier
Roß und Esel, Schaf und Stier, lauter schöne Dinge
Doch du weißt ja unsern Wunsch, kennst ja unsre Herzen
Kinder, Vater und Mama, auch sogar der Großpapa
Alle, alle sind wir da, warten dein mit Schmerzen

Cigarette holder which wigs me
Over her shoulder, she digs me

Careful, amigo, you're flippin'

She's nobody's fool so I'm playing it cool as can be
I'll give it a whirl but I ain't for no girl catching me
Switch-a-rooney!
Telephone numbers well you know
Doin' my rhumbas with uno
And that 'in my Satin Doll

Monster's Holiday
Monster's Holiday
Composer(s): Charles Underwood
Performer(s): Bobby 'Boris' Pickett
'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the castle
My monsters were having a Yuletide hassle
The tree was all trimmed in ghoulish things
Like werewolf fangs and vampire wings
(It was a monster's holiday)
But they were up to no good
(It was a monster's holiday)
Didn't act like good monsters should
(It was a monster's holiday)
They found themselves a new play
(It was a monster's holiday)
They planned to rob Santa's sleigh
They were making a list and checking it twice
Frankenstein wanted a shiny new trike
A new chain for Yarnush
A brace for Igor's back
A speed shaver for Wolfman
A new cape for Drac
(It was a monster's holiday)
They were up to no good
(It was a monster's holiday)
Didn't act like good monster's should
(It was a monster's holiday)
They found themselves a new play
(It was a monster's holiday)
They planned to rob Santa's sleigh
The Mummy was to signal from the castle roof
At the very first sound of a reindeer hoof
As Santa slid down the chimney wall
The zombies were to make off with sleigh and all
From beyond the moat there arose such a clatter
I jumped to the window to see what was the matter
Like a bolt of lightning it happened so quick
And there in our midst stood old Saint Nick
He began to dig down deep in his sack
And came up with the traction for Igor's back
Drac got his cape
Franky's trike made him behave
Even Wolfman was happy now he can shave
(It was a monster's holiday)
And all ended well
(It was a monster's holiday)
And Santa was really swell
(It was a monster's holiday)
No need to rob Santa's sleigh
(It was a monster's holiday)
Maybe next year he'll come back
So the children everywhere were spared the grief
Of losing their presents to a monster sleigh thief
Now the monsters love Santa and say they'll behave
And never again rob sleighs or graves
(Repeat "it was a monster's holiday" in background with the following)
Igor, what do you think of Santa now?
"Arrrrrr...Santa good!"
And Santa said as he drove out of sight
(Dracula accent):"Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
Merry Christmas to all
And to all a good night - blaaaa!"
Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
Where is that reindeer with the red nose, blaaaa
On Donner, on Blitzen, on Dancer ...

Satin
Satin
Composer(s): Lee Morris; Bernie Wayne
Performer(s): Bobby Vinton
(Satin)
(Satin)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Her name is Satin, she's so fine
Her lips are satin, soft on mine
And when my Satin holds me tight
She can light the darkest night
I go with Satin to the dance
And all the guys give her a glance
But they don't even stand a chance
'Cause Satin is my romance
She doesn't have to be dressed for places
In velvet or laces
She could go in cotton
For once you have seen her
She's not forgotten
Her name is Satin, she's so fine
Her lips are satin, soft on mine
And when my Satin holds me tight
She can light the darkest night
She could go in cotton
For once you have seen her
She's not forgotten
Her name is Satin, she's so fine
Her lips are satin, soft on mine
And when my Satin holds me tight
She can light the darkest night
Satin is my heart's delight

Mistletoe And Wine
Composer(s): Jeremy Paul; Leslie Stewart; Keith Strachan
Performer(s): Cliff Richard
The child is a King, the Carollers sing
The old has passed, there's a new beginning
Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow
Fingers numb, faces aglow
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time for rejoicing in all that we see
A time for living, a time for believing
A time for trusting, not deceiving
Love and laughter and joy ever after
Ours for the taking, just follow the master
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time for rejoicing in all that we see
A time for giving, a time for getting
A time for forgiving and for forgetting
Christmas is love, Christmas is peace
A time for hating and fighting to cease
Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time for rejoicing in all that we see
(Repeat)

Satan's Jeweled Crown
Satan's Jeweled Crown
Composer(s): Edgar L. Eden
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
Now if I were a queen and a ruler of nations
With diamonds and jewels profound
Well, I'd rather know that I had salvation
Than to know my reward
Would be Satan's jewel crown
I've worm it so long but God for my
Soul has reached down
His love set me free
He made me His own, and helped me cast off
Satan's jewel crown
Oh, the life that I live so sinful and needless
Drinkin' and runnin' around
All the things that I do for the love of the devil
I know my reward
Will be Satan's jewel crown
Satan's jewel crown
I've worn it so long
But God for my soul has reached down
His love set me free
He made me His own, and helped me cast off
Satan's jewel crown
