Ne Vois-Tu Pas


Ne Vois-Tu Pas
Composer(s): Pierre Brenner; Roland Schweizer
First performance by: Madeleine Pascal - 1966
Ne vois-tu pas qu'à présent je ne suis plus une enfant?
Ne vois-tu pas que les années ont passé?
Depuis le temps, mon cœur aussi a grandi
Et je t'aime autrement qu'en amie
Ne vois-tu pas chaque fois que tu me prends par le bras?
Ne vois-tu pas que je m'appuie contre toi?
Quand tu m'embrasses, on dirait bien, j'en ai peur
Que l'on est, toi et moi, frère et sœur
On dit que l'amour est aveugle
Mais moi, je crois qu'il est sourd comme toi
Il est vrai je suis toute seule quand je te dis ça
Ne vois-tu pas qu'à présent je ne suis plus une enfant?
Ne vois-tu pas que les années ont passé?
Au fond de moi, l'amour aussi a grandi
Et je t'aime autrement qu'en amie
Ne vois-tu pas cette fois que je t'ai pris par le bras?
Ne vois-tu pas que tu t'appuies contre moi?
Le premier pas - j'ai dû le faire avant toi
Et tu m'aimes depuis ce jour-là
Et l'on s'aime depuis ce jour-là

Per Incanto E Per Amore


Per Incanto E Per Amore
Composer(s): Claudio Baglioni
Performer(s): Claudio Baglioni
Fa che il tempo di un uomo non sia un istante e poi via
che non lascia mai niente di sé
nella storia di tutta la povera gente
e che un semplice abbraccio non sia solo un frutto d'inverno
ma un soffio d'eterno
perché sia così
come un canto del cuore
come per incanto e per amore
fa che il senso di un uomo non sia la paura di amare
o la scia di una barca legata che non prende il mare
e che questa vecchia ribelle speranza non sia più l'assurda
distanza
tra gli occhi e le stelle
perché sia così
come un canto del cuore
come per incanto e per amore
fa che il viaggio di un uomo non sia la bugia di una meta
ma la verità della strada più lunga e segreta
e che un pugno di riso non sia solo un altro abbandono
ma almeno la via verso un altro sorriso un perdono
e che sia così
e l'incanto e l'incanto
fa che il cielo di un uomo non sia
questa notte infinita ma un'alba di vita
su tutta la terra perché un'altra guerra è finita
in un mondo senza più ingiustizia far pace
di un sogno di pace e amicizia
perché sia così
come un canto del cuore
come per incanto e per amore
fa che il tuo prossimo sia non soltanto chi già ti sta accanto
anche il prossimo che verrà qui per incanto
fa che sia così

Sing Low, Sweet Cheerio


Sing Low, Sweet Cheerio
Performer(s): Alice Cooper
Forget, remember nothing
The force came from the flame
I pass along the path inside
My light shining always
We'll get there first a name cried out
And looked back all the way
Recall falling down a lot of time was spent that way
But this story staring me has already begun
'Cuz I had some vision in my sight
On the journey to be one
Help me, help please, help me please
The screaming starts again
But the trick I find something hid
You look, you find, I win
While working while the play was on
The play was alright then
Think thoughts, big thoughts
Take off and go back again next week
Right then my story ended
And a new one had begun
'Cuz I had some vision in my sight
On the journey to be one

Per Elisa


Per Elisa
Composer(s): Alice; Franco Battiato; Giusto Pio
Performer(s): Alice;
and various other artists
Per Elisa
vuoi vedere che perderai anche me
Per Elisa
non sai più distinguere che giorno è
e poi, non è nemmeno bella
Per Elisa
paghi sempre tu e non ti lamenti
per lei ti metti in coda per le spese
e il guaio è che non te ne accorgi
Con Elisa
guardi le vetrine e non ti stanchi
lei ti lascia e ti riprende come e quando vuole
lei riesce solo a farti male
Vivere, vivere, vivere non è più vivere
lei ti ha plagiato, ti ha preso anche la dignità
Fingere, fingere, fingere non sai più fingere
senza di lei, senza di lei ti manca l'aria
Senza Elisa
non esci neanche a prendere il giornale
con me riesci solo a dire due parole
ma noi, un tempo ci amavamo
Con Elisa
guardi le vetrine e non ti stanchi
lei ti lascia e ti riprende come e quando vuole
lei riesce solo a farti male
Vivere, vivere, vivere non è più vivere
lei ti ha plagiato, ti ha preso anche la dignità
Fingere, fingere, fingere non sai più fingere
senza di lei, senza di lei ti manca l'aria
Vivere non è più vivere
Per Elisa, con Elisa!

Sing Joy Spring


Sing Joy Spring
Composer(s): Clifford Brown; Jon Hendricks
Performer(s): The Manhattan Transfer
We sing a spring
(Sing joy spring)
A rare and most mysterious spring
(This most occult thing)
Is buried deep in the soul
(It's story never has been told)
The joy spring, the fountain of pleasure
Is deep inside you whether you're diggin' it or not
Once you're aware of this spring
You'll know that it's the greatest
Treasure you've got
And furthermore
The joy spring, the bounteous treasure
Cannot be bartered away and never
Can be sold
Nothing can take it from you
It's yours and yours alone to have
And to hold
And something more
It never is lost to fire or theft
It's always around
When trouble is gone the pleasure
Is left I've always found
It's burglar-proof same as the treasure
Man lays up in heaven worth a
Price no one can measure
that says a lot
So joy spring this fountain of pleasure
That's deep inside you let me inform
You in all truth *(to Coda second time)
Ponce de Leon sought this
When he was searchin' for the fountain of youth
Ol' Ponce de Leon laughed so much he
Never did find the magic fountain
But many people with a well-adjusted
Spirit they could hear it when y'told
'em it was there tellin' them was
Like tellin' it on the mountain
It's quite a lift havin' the gift of
laughter I'm a man who knows in a
minute I can tell y'just exactly how the story goes
It involves a firm conviction in another
previous life givin' your mind a chance to fly
Fly aroun' the universe investigatin' other
galaxies n' certain other subtle
types o'life tryin' t'dig it gettin'
pretty well-acquainted with a lot of
other strife an' pretty much acquirin'
yourself plenty of education
pretty soon here comes earth birth
'n then y'ready t'put it all t'work
but soon as you're finished bein' born
you start forgettin' what you knew
'Cause you're another kinda you - a
reincarnation manifestation
of spirit in sensation
Y'really got that right
The average person isn't bright
not so bright that they recall the fatal fall
down here t' this earth
their minds disguise their death to spirit
life and call it birth
that's their reason for forgetting and they
find it very upsetting when reminded
tell 'em they've lived before
They'll show y' the nearest open door
Gotta have feelin' while dealin' with
walkers in their sleep
they can't imagine somethin' as deep
Here they come - here they come - there they are
Unimaginative and ignorant of falling from a star
Here they come - there they are - there they go
Life is over in a minute an' they never dug
it in it or enjoy a minute of it
'cause they put too much above it
that was gross
somethin' that was worth a couple bucks
at mos'
So there is the reason that the maker of man
included there in his plan
A certain fountain deep within'
where there was laughter, youth 'n gold
for human beings t'have 'n hold
'n share the memory of where we've all been
Brothers called Grimm knew chances were slim'
Anybody would dig that the human soul
was Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs were seven tempers
in man
whose digging out the gold completes
the plan
An Bacon was hip that Shakespeare
couldn't read
and so he gave him all the rhymes
that have lasted through the years
and kept eternal truths alive through
several centuries
That's how we know them now
they lasted 'cause they're true
What was it from "MacBeth?"
"Life's but a walking shadow
a player poor
that struts and frets upon the stage
and's seen no more
A tale that truly has an idiotic ring
That's full of lotsa sound and fury
signifying nothing..."
That's right signifying nothing
I'll repeat it! Nothing
Don't forget it - Nothing
And that's the reason for that spring
of joy
That the Father put inside of every
single girl and boy
Show time! Everyone's on
let's hit the stage
It's show time everyone an' proceed
to act your age
Whatever you're frownin' at is funny
enough f'laughin'
so you're wastin' all your humor on a frown
While you're bringin' your spirit down
You gotta book yourself a comic in your act
without some laughter life's a maudlin
farce 'n that's a fact
Once you know about the spring you always can smile
It becomes your one expression
and you're always wearin' it like the
Buddhas do
(Repeat Intro to *)
(Coda)
Ponce de Leon sought this
When he was searchin'
for the fountain of youth
I say in truth he
sought a magical thing
For he was searchin'
for the joy spring

Per Averti


Per Averti
Composer(s): Gianni Bella; Mogol
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano
Girasoli a testa in giù
avviliti come me
come posso immaginare
tutta la vita senza te
per averti
farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso
e se è questo
che tu mi chiedi
io ti perdo ma stavolta resto in piedi
anche se qui dentro me qualcosa muore
si per averti - per averti
farei di tutto
ma rinuncio con dolore
si per averti - farei di tutto
ma non ti voglio, non ti voglio
senza amore
Tu due cuori non li hai
e a me non basta la metà
se tu scegliere non sai
scelgo io che male fa...
Ma senza voglia
e senza futuro
vado incontro tutto solo a un cielo nero
Io non mi vendo
ma sto morendo
morsicato da un serpente e senza siero
disperato ma però un uomo vero
Si per averti farei di tutto
ma non voglio avere un animo più brutto
si per averti farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso
per averti
farei di tutto
tranne perdere la stima di me stesso
e se è questo
che tu mi chiedi
io ti perdo ma stavolta resto in piedi
anche se qui dentro me qualcosa muore
si per averti - per averti
farei di tutto
ma rinuncio con dolore
si per averti - farei di tutto
ma non ti voglio, non ti voglio
senza amore
coro:
si per averti farei di tutto

Nygammal Vals (Hip Man Svinaherde)


Nygammal Vals (Hip Man Svinaherde)
First performance by: Lill Lindfors & Svante Thuresson - 1966
För länge sedan i världen fanns
En svinaherde, en stenhipp man
Och en prinsessa, stolt jungfru hon var
En dag möttes de och han steg fram och sa
Kors i karamellen, vilken schysst mam'sell du verkar vara
Titta vilken klänning, jätteklämmig
Är det maskerad, va?
Stick iväg från stigen, du var mig en osedvanlig lurk
Jag är prinsessa, ganska så sipp
Jag heter kunnigunda, konungens gull
Du, simma långsamt, var lite hipp
Hör när jag trummelummar på min kastrull
Digga digga pop...
Tjong i medaljongen, en så'n festlig sång du trumma' nyss, va?
Lär du bara mig att trummelumma får du mun min kyssa
Mun har varje jänta, kan man inte tänka sig en slant?
Dricker ur bäcken, lever av mull
Har man en slant på fickan kan man stå lull
Du var en fräck en, får inget gull
Men jag vill trummelumma på din kastrull
Digga digga pop...
Klang i kantarellen, det var väldans, bruden har visst bråttom
Vad i hela friden ser du i den? Grytor finns det gott om
Grytan där den låter skönt, den ljuder grönt, en lajbans klang
Vi gör ett avtal, ta't eller stick
Jag blir hipp svinaherde, du kungens gull
Jag som prinsessa? Visst man är hipp
Ta då min trummelumma, ta min kastrull
Han som prinsessa, hipp man i clips
Hivades ut från hovet av en patrull
Hon svinaherde, sipp brud i slips
Gjorde var männ'ska galen, spelte kastrull
Döden i grytan byta bort sin kastrull

Tu te vuelves cándida

No existe ninguna cándida como tú
Tintarella di luna

Sing It Pretty, Sue


Sing It Pretty, Sue
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash
So you gave up all between us
For a glamourous career
And with all your talent you should be
The big star of the year
Then you'll be public property
So I release my claim to you
Go on and give 'em all you've got
Sing it pretty, Sue
I can't take just part of you
And give the world a half
So smile for all the papers
And give 'em autographs
Go on to all the cities
So your public can see you
But I'll watch on television
So sing it pretty, Sue
I hope you'll soon be on the top
Of every hit parade
I'll try to be excited
'Bout the progress that you've made
I'll collect your pictures
Like any fan would do
And I'll buy all your records
So sing it pretty, Sue
But I won't ever tell a soul
That we have ever met
I'll just be one of millions
Who'll give the praise you get
And maybe every year or so
I'll drop a card to you
To tell you I'm still listening
So sing it pretty, Sue

Pequeñas Cosas
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Pequeña estrella, gota de luz
como es la paz, dímelo tú
vuela paloma, sin descansar
tus alas llevan, la libertad
A veces me pregunto
porque guardamos todos
oculta tras un velo la verdad
si ella nace con el sol
crece junto a cada flor
y madura alrededor
de pequeñas cosas
Navega el río, muere en el mar
como a mi vida, te veo pasar
A veces me pregunto
porque guardamos todos
oculta tras un velo la verdad
si ella nace con el sol
crece junto a cada flor
y madura alrededor
de pequeñas cosas
De pequeñas cosas

Sing For Your Supper
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Lorenz Hart
Performer(s): The Mamas & The Papas
and multiple other artists
Hawks and crows do lots of things
but the canary only sings
She is a courtesan on wings
So I've heard
Eagles and storks are twice as strong
All the canary knows is song
But the canary gets along
Guilded bird!
Sing for your supper
And you'll get breakfast
Songbirds always eat
If their song is sweet to hear
Sing for your luncheon
And you'll get dinner
Dine with wine of choice
If romance is in your voice
I heard from a wise canary
Trilling makes a fellow willing
So, little swallow, swallow now
Now is the time to
Sing for your supper
And you'll get breakfast
Songbirds are not dumb
They don't buy a crumb
Of bread
It's said
So sing and you'll be fed

and various other artists
Vivo en un país libre
cual solamente puede ser libre
en esta tierra, en este instante
y soy feliz porque soy gigante
Amo a una mujer clara
que amo y me ama
sin pedir nada
o casi nada
que no es lo mismo
pero es igual
Y si esto fuera poco
tengo mis cantos
que poco a poco
muelo y rehago
habitando el tiempo
como le cuadra
a un hombre despierto
Soy feliz
soy un hombre feliz
y quiero que me perdonen
por este día
los muertos de mi felicidad

Sing For The Song


Sing For The Song
Composer(s): Bob Gibson
Performer(s): Harry Belafonte
Oh sometimes you sing for the money
Sometimes you sing for the show
Sometimes you sing for those dewy eyed darlings
It still makes them cry don't you know
One time you sang for the glory
But the glory didn't last very long
From the haze to the stage back to the days
When you used to sing for the song
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul
Comes the time when you don't make much money
And you don't put on much of a show
And those dewy eyed darlings
Next week will be crying
For somebody else don't you know
Now your tune is becoming your burden
Words are all twisted and wrong
And the song that you sell
Don't taste quite as well
As when you used to sing for the song
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did when you stood on that corner
and didn't even feel the cold
Sing for the song boys
Just like you did before all of the cocaine
And flash bulbs and bright painted ladies
that haunted your soul

Pépito
Pépito
Composer(s): T. Taylor; Jonathon Truscott
Performer(s): André Bourvil
Pépito est malheureux, il traîne un cœur douloureux
Il y a des larmes, des milliers de larmes dans ses yeux
Pépito est amoureux, mais aucun de ses aveux
Ne touche la belle, à l'âme cruelle
C'est un miséreux qui s'en va
Portant dans ses bras, son amie: sa guitare
Pépito est malheureux, mais quand pour les amoureux
Chaque soir il chante, les mots qu'il invente, st joyeux
Pour 4 pièces d'argent, la sérénade est donnée
Pour remplacer Don Juan qui voudra se faire aimer
Et ce soir il chantera
Pour celle qui l'oublie dans d'autres bras
Pépito est malheureux, mais il doit jouer le jeu
Il chante quand même en cachant la peine de ses yeux
Pépito est amoureux, ce qu'il fait est dangereux
Car sa ritournelle sera pour la belle un dernier adieux
Mais demain, pour d'autres refrains, il prendra sa guitare
Pépito sur ton chemin, une fille te tend la main
Encore bien plus belle, déjà tu l'appel ton destin
Pepito mi corazon, pepito de mis amores
Cantame a mi, cantame a mi con amor
Pepito eres mi vida, mi carinio mi querido
Nunca he comprendido... porque intereso ti
Quiere me, quiere me, mese me, entre tus brazos
Pepito mi corazon, dame mas de tu carinio
Cantame asi, cantame asi, con amor

Pepino The Italian Mouse


Pepino The Italian Mouse
French Title: Minnie Petite Souris
Composer(s): Ray Allen; Wandra Merrell
Performer(s): Lou Monte
Signore e signori, io mi chiamo Pepino Suracilla
[Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Pepino the Mouse]
And, what a mulaniana!
Pepino, oh, you little mouse
Oh, won't you go away
Find yourself another house to run around and play
You scare my girl, you eat my cheese, you even drink my wine
I try so hard to catch you but you trick me all the time
Ce sta una suracilla basci’ u’ “cellar” mezzo mure
Ogni sera ella esce quando la casa é scura
Ella do indo la cucina balla sula-sula
Appara ‘nu malandrina, pura la gata s’a paura
[There’s a mouse down in the cellar between the walls
Every evening it comes out when the house is dark
She comes up in the kitchen and dances all alone
She seems like such a rascal, even the cat is terrified]
Pepino suracilla, m’a fatta scumbati
Managia suracilla!
Di casa n’andai
Stasera illa cucina ‘nu poco di vino en c’e lascia
E quando s’embriaga, ah Pepino é c’encappa
[Pepino the mouse, you’ve embarassed me
The heck with this mouse
Get out of my house
This evening in the kitchen a little wine will be left
And when he’s good and drunk, ah, Pepino will be caught!]
The other night I called my girl
I asked her could we meet
I said let's go to my house
We could have a bite to eat
And as we walked in through the door
she screamed at what she saw
There was little Pepino
Doin' the cha-cha on the floor
Pepino suracilla, m’a fatta scumbati
Managia suracilla! Di casa n’andai
Stasera illa cucina ‘nu poco di vino en c’e lascia
E quando s’embriaga a Pepino e c’encappa
A essa non si piace formaggio American’
Ella va trovando ‘nu poca Parmegian’
S’e fatto ghiata ghiata usce stegga da pur
Quando qu’ella camina apara nu propia calendola
[It doesn’t like American cheese
It goes around finding Parmesan
Then it’ll get really big and fat
And when it walks it’ll look like a calendola [a fat, wobbly herb]
