Seabirds
Seabirds
Composer(s): Roger Waters
Performer(s): Ken Langford & Crystal Kerr
Mighty waves come crashing down
The spray is lashing high into the eagle's eye
Shrieking as it cuts the devil wind
is calling sailors to the deep
But I can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
Surf is high an' the sea is awash
An' a haze of candy floss, glitter and beads
Rock that we sat on and watched in the sun
That was hot to touch
And the sea was emerald green
I can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
And I can see you smile
Surf comes rushing up the beach
Now will it reach the castle wall and will it fall
Catfish dappled silver flashing
Dogfish puffing bubbles in my deep

Step Into Christmas
Step Into Christmas
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1973
Welcome to my Christmas song
I'd like to thank you for the year
So I'm sending you this Christmas card
To say it's nice to have you here
I'd like to sing about all the things
Your eyes and mind can see
So hop aboard the turntable
Oh step into Christmas with me
Step into Christmas
Let's join together
We can watch the snow fall forever and ever
Eat, drink and be merry
Come along with me
Step into Christmas
The admission's free
Take care in all you do next year
And keep smiling through the days
If we can help to entertain you
Oh we will find the ways
So merry Christmas one and all
There's no place I'd rather be
Than asking you if you'd oblige
Stepping into Christmas with me

Souviens-Toi Des Noëls De Là-Bas
Souviens-Toi Des Noëls De Là-Bas
Composer(s): Enrico Macias; A. Canfora
Performer(s): Enrico Macias
Souviens-toi des Noëls de là-bas
Toi ce soir qui est loin comme moi
Loin de notre pays brûlé par le soleil
Je suis triste ce soir loin de tout
J'ai envie de pleurer je l'avoue
Pourtant les gens d'ici
Heureux chantent Noël.
Que sont-ils devenus ce soir
Mes amis d'autrefois, qui sait
Le monde est bien trop grand
Sans eux, bien trop grand.
Peut-être bien qu'un jour, enfin
Nous nous retrouverons, qui sait!
Pour fêter à nouveau nos rêves l'an prochain
Souviens-toi des Noëls de là-bas
Ils sonnaient tant d'amour, tant de joie
Il brûlait dans nos cœurs
Ce feu qui s'est éteint
Souviens-toi des Noëls de là-bas, de chez nous
Ils sonnaient, ils chantaient tant d'amour
Tant d'espoir et de joie
Ils brûlaient comme un feu dans nos cœurs
Souviens-toi des Noëls de chez nous
Des Noëls de là-bas

Sea, Sex And Sun
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Sea sex and sun
Excuse me
I am a french man
And I am afraid
I don't speak very well english
But
I think
That you are
The most pretty little girl
I ever knew
Sea sex and sun
And I would like
To make love with you
Sea sex and sun
For a french man
It's very difficult to explain
But
What can I do
I like your body your eyes
Baby blue
Sea sex and sun
So
I would like
To make love with you
Sea sex and sun
I am a french man
And I am used to saying
Je t'aime
How old are you
You look sixteen
But your smile
Twenty two
Sea sex and sun
Any way
I would like
To make love
With you
Sea sex and sun....

Someday At Christmas
Someday At Christmas
Composer(s): Ron Miller; Bryan Wells
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder
and multiple other artists
Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free
Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas we'll see a Man
No hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
Our world where people care
Someday at Christmas there'll be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
One shinning moment my heart ran away
From our world today
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmas man will not fail
Take hope because your love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart
Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmastime

Sea, Dreams & Fairytales
Sea, Dreams & Fairytales
Composer(s): Toy Caldwell
Performer(s): The Marshall Tucker Band
Many people in life seem to set their sails
For dream worlds just filled with fairytales
Life comes and goes like the changing tide
Keeping the real world that they live in out of their mind
Life is like the blackness of the sea
And no one will ever understand this mystery
And heaven has a way to try and warn
The poor fool that sets his ship towards the storm
And as they head their ship into the raging wind
That's the place where most dreams usually end
(Instrumental Break)
Life is like the blackness of the sea
And no one will ever understand this mystery
Unto the steps I hope I never descend
It's too far to the top to start all over again
So set your course and be careful you're not harmed
Not like us, the sea, the dreams and fairytales
Will always live on

Some Children See Him
Some Children See Him
Composer(s): Alfred Burt; Wihla Hutson
Some children see Him lily white
The baby Jesus born this night
Some children see Him lily white
With tresses soft and fair
Some children see Him bronzed and brown
The Lord of heaven to earth come down
Some children see Him bronzed and brown
With dark and heavy hair
Some children see Him almond-eyed
This Savior whom we kneel beside
Some children see Him almond-eyed
With skin of yellow hue
Some children see Him dark as they
Sweet Mary's Son, to Whom we pray
Some children see Him dark as they
And ah! they love Him, too!
The children in each different place
Will see the baby Jesus' face
Like theirs, but bright and heavenly grace
And filled with holy light
O lay aside each early thing
And with thy heart as offering
Come worship now the infant King
'Tis love that's born tonight!

Socko The Smallest Snowball
Socko The Smallest Snowball
Composer(s): Freddie Morgan; Dave Myers
Performer(s): The Bell Sisters
You've all heard of Alice
In Wonderland
Well, we have a little story
We hope you'll understand
It's about a little snowball
We met the other day
He actually spoke to us!
And this is what he had to say
I'm Socko the smallest snowball
But I never get a chance to play
What fun for the other snowballs
To be thrown back and forth all day
The kids all built a great big fort
With snowballs big and round
But when the battle finished
I was still there on the ground
Oh, if they would only try me
I'm small but I'm so fully packed
I'm sure if I hit a window
That window would be all cracked
The sun will soon be here they say
And then I guess I'll melt away
So please somebody come and play
With Socko the smallest snowball
Oh, how I wish that I could be
On top of some big hill
Then I would roll right off and start
To roll and roll until
I'd get so big that all the kids
Would point at me and stare
And say I was the biggest, biggest
Snowball anywhere
But, I'm, Socko the smallest snowball
And it seems I never have much fun
I'll bet if somebody would throw me
I could make all the other kids run
One day a man chased all the kids
He was so big and fat
Oh, how the children laughed
When I knocked off his big silk hat
Oh, why must I be so little?
I wish I was real big instead
Then if they built a snowman
I might even be the head
With two big eyes
A great big smile
I'd make the kiddies
Laugh all the while
Please somebody, give a trial
To Socko the smallest snowball

Sea Of Love (Paul Brady)
Sea Of Love
Composer(s): Paul Brady
Performer(s): Paul Brady
Something in this mad town thrills me so
Just one taste, and the juices flow
Sure, I'd get crazy here before too long
But right now, girl, I feel the tap is turned on
Lately I've been fading away
Like a old torn photograph, fingered and grey
Losing myself inside this thing we share
(Boom! Boom!)Babe, I'm coming up for air!
Dancing to the beat of the city at night
No use in pretending that it won't feel right
The power, the passion, the hunger in the eyes
Something in this child's still in love with those lies
We're together and you know it's true
All I ever wanted was to be with you
But sometimes I wonder how this dream can last
When the best part of me keeps sinking so fast (feels like)
Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, Baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down
And I'm praying to the stars above
`Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
Cos I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Now, I know darlin' it's a weakness in me
Nothing that you do says I can't be free
I dip in my foot till the toe gets wet
Then I run home crying `Is this all I get?'
Frightened to go, frightened to stay
Frightened that our lovelight's fading away
Somebody tell me how a man survives
With his body and soul livin' separate lives (cos I'm)
Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, Baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down
And I'm praying to the stars above
`Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
Cos I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down

Sea Of Joy
(Italian Version: Al Ristorante - 1970)
Composer(s): Steve Winwood
First release by: Blind Faith - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Following the shadows of the skies
Or are they only figments of my eyes?
And I'm feeling close to when the race is run
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Once the door swings open into space
And I'm already waiting in disguise
Is it just a thorn between my eyes?
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Having trouble coming through
Through this concrete blocks my view
And it's all because of you
Oh, is it just a thorn between my eyes?
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Sea of joy
Sea of joy
Sailing free
Sea of joy

Snow
Snow
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow
Snow, snow, I wanna wash my hands
my face and hair with snow
Snow...I long to clear a path, and lift a spade of snow
Snow, oh, to see a great big man entirely made of snow
Snow, where it's snowing all winter through
That's where I want to be
Snowball throwing, that's what I'll do
How I'm longing to ski through the
Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
Those glist'ning houses that seem to be built of snow
Snow, oh, to see a mountain covered with a quilt of snow
What is Christmas with no snow?
No white Christmas with no snow
Snow...
I'll soon be there with snow, I'll wash my hair with snow
And with a spade of snow, I'll build a man that's made of snow
I'd like to stay up with you, but I recommend a little shut-eye
Go to sleep, and dream of snow, snow, snow, snow

Composer(s): Paul Hamilton; Hal David
First release by: Don Gibson - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
The lights in the harbour, don't shine for me
I'm like a lost ship, adrift on the sea
The sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
How did I lose you?
Oh, where did I fail?
Why did you leave me?
Always to sail
This sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
Oh, what I'd give to sail back to shore
Back to your arms once more
Come to my rescue
Come here to me
Take me and keep me
Away from the sea
The sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on the sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
Sea of heartbreak
Sea of heartbreak

Snoopy's Christmas
Snoopy's Christmas
Composer(s): Luigi Creatore; Hugo Peretti; George David Weiss
Performer(s): The Royal Guardsmen; Mike Andes
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
[Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree]
du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
[Of all the trees most lovely]
The news had come out in the First World War
The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
The Allied command ignored all of its men
And called on Snoopy to do it again
Twas the night before Christmas, 40 below
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought
With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ring out from the land
Asking peace of all the world
And good will to man
The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights
He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
Or was it the bells from the village below
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man
The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
Snoopy was certain that this was the end
When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend"
The Baron then offered a holiday toast
And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host
And then with a roar they were both on their way
Each knowing they'd meet on some other day
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man

All The Way From America
All The Way From America
Composer(s): Joan Armatrading
Performer(s): Joan Armatrading
You called all the way from America and said
"Hang on to love, Girl"
But the weeks and the months and the tears passed by
And my eyes couldn't stand the strain
Of that promised love
All the way from America
You called all the way from America and said
"I'll soon be home, Girl"
But the years and the tears and the fears passed by
And my heart couldn't stand the pain
Of that promised love
All the way from America
All the way from America
I stayed all alone and I waited `round
For you to knock at my door
But the knock never came, and no ring at all
And now I sit and wonder why
You made that first call
All the way from America
I don't believe I'll stay here
I don't think I want to wait here anymore
And if you search for me, Baby
Better bring some more love
Than you declared
All the way from America
