Personality Crisis


Personality Crisis
Composer(s): David Johansen; Johnny Thunders
Performer(s): New York Dolls



Well we can't take it this week
And her friends don't want another speach
Hoping for a better day to hear what she's got to say

All about that
Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
(That's why they talk about Personality)

But now your tryin to be some no you got to do some
Wanna be someone who cow wow wows
But you think about the times you did they took every ounce
When it sure got to be a shame when you start to scream and shout
You got to contradict all those times you were butterflyin' about

(You were butterflyin')
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got

And your a prima ballerina on a spring afternoon
Change on into the wolfman howlin at the moon hooowww

All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got

Now with all the crossin fingers that mother nature says
Your mirrors get jammed up with all your friends

That personality everything starts to blend
Personality when your mind starts to blend
Personality impression of a friend,
Of a friend, of a friend, of a friend, of a friend
Personality wonderin how celebrities ever met
(Look and find out on television)

Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
Frustration and heartache is all you got, don't you worry
Personality Crisis please don't cry
It's just a Personality Crisis, please don't stop

Because you walk a Personality
Talk a Personality

Ik Heb Zorgen
Composer(s): Paul Quintens; Phil Van Cauwenbergh
First performance by: Louis Neefs - 1967



Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Zij was zo mooi, mooi als een lentelied
Mooier kon ze niet zijn
Zij was zo mooi, mooi als men zelden ziet
En er was maneschijn

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Haar eerste zoen, zoen die kwam net op tijd
Oh oh oh, wat een zoen
En ik dacht toen: "Laat ons die heerlijkheid"
Nog maar eens overdoen

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Ergens heel ver, ver in een denneboom
Zong toen die nachtegaal
En hij bracht mij de allerliefste droom
En die werd mij fataal

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen
En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues
'cause I never thought that I'd ever lose
Your love dear, why'd you do me this way?

Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night
'cause everythin's wrong, and nothin' ain't right
Without you, you got me singin' the blues

The moon and stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothin' left for me to do
But cry-y-y-y over you (cry over you)

Well, I never felt more like runnin' away
But why should I go 'cause I couldn't stay
Without you, you got me singin' the blues

Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues

Your love dear, why'd you do me this way?

Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night

Without you, you got me singin' the blues

Oh, the moon and stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothin' left for me to do
But cry-y-y-y over you (cry over you)

Well, I never felt more like runnin' away
But why should I go 'cause I couldn't stay
Without you, you got me singin' the blues

Personality (Johnny Mercer)


Personality
Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Johnny Mercer;
and various other artists



When Madam Pompadour was on a ballroom floor
Said all the gentlemen "Obviously,"
"The madam has the cutest personality"

And think of all the books about Du Barry's looks
What was it made her the toast of Paree?
She had a well-developed personality

(What did Romeo see in Juliet?)
(Or Figaro in Figarette?)
(Or Jupiter in Juno?)
You know!

And when Salome danced and had the boys entranced
No doubt it must have been easy to see
That she knew how to use her personality

(A girl can learn to spell and take dictation well)
(And never sit on the boss's left knee)
(Unless she's got a perfect personality)

(A girl can get somewhere in spite of stringy hair)
(Or even just a bit bowed at the knee)
(If she can show a faultless personality)

Why are certain girls offered certain things
Like sable coats and wedding rings?
By men who wear their spats right?
(That's right!)

(So don'tcha say "I'm smart and have the kindest heart"
(Or "what a wonderful sister I'd be")
Just tell me how you like my
Mercer> "Rufff!!
(Personality)

Baby, you've got the cutest
Personality!!

Anouschka


Anouschka
First performance by: Inge Brück - 1967



Musst nicht weinen, kleine Anouschka
Er kommt wieder, kleine Anouschka
Wenn der Frühling kommt, wenn die Blumen blühn
Ist er wieder bei dir

Deine Augen, kleine Anouschka
Sind voll Tränen, kleine Anouschka
Doch die Welt ist weit, es verrinnt die Zeit
Tränen trocknet der Wind

Wenn es die wahre Liebe ist
Wird alles wieder gut
Dann kommt er auch zurück
Denn er denkt an dich, immer zu an dich

Anouschka
Soviel Freude, kleine Anouschka
Wirst du haben, kleine Anouschka
Wenn der Frühling kommt, wenn die Blumen blühn
Euer Leben beginnt

Lalalala lalalala...
Lalala lalala...
Dann kommt er auch zurück
Denn er denkt an dich, immer zu an dich
An dich

Persona No Grata


Persona No Grata
Composer(s): Mario Pupparo
Performer(s): Raphael



Tú nunca cambias de música
Sólo cambias de instrumento
No hablo por boca de otros
Lo he aprendido sufriendo
Esperando a que abrieras la puerta
Y mirando tu pelo revuelto
Y tú siempre esquivando mis ojos
Y el adentro escondido en silencio
Tú engañando, yo sufriendo
Te declaro
Persona no grata
Te retiro
Mi amor por estafa
Y no voy a escuchar tus disculpas
No te creo ni media palabra
Que perdona y perdona
Aquí no hay perdón que valga
No, no, no, no
Tú nunca cambias de música
Sólo cambias de instrumento
No hablo por boca de otros
Lo he aprendido sufriendo
Esperando en la calle desierta
Y mordiendo mis uñas y el tiempo
Y tú siempre inventando pretextos
Y yo siempre callando y creyendo
Tú engañando y yo sufriendo
Te declaro
Persona no grata
Te retiro
Mi amor por estafa

Singing In The Rain


Singing In The Rain
Composer(s): Arthur Freed; Nacio Herb Brown
Performer(s): Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards
and multiple other artists



I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again!
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love!
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with your rain
I've got a smile on my face!
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin', singin' in the rain!

Why am I smiling and why do I sing?
Why does December seem sunny as Spring?
Why do I get up each morning to start
Happy and head-up with joy in my heart?
Why is each new task a trifle to do?
Because I am living a life full of you!

Hey, I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again!
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love!
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with your rain
I've got a smile on my face!
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin', singin' in the rain!

Person To Person


Person To Person
Composer(s): The Average White Band; Alan Gorrie; Hamish Stuart
Performer(s): The Average White Band



Telephone line, bad connection
And I'm half asleep
Makin' conversation with you should be easy
But it ain't
Wish you could be with me
There would be no problem
Our communication's bad
And I want to see you again

Person to person, face to face
Person to person, one to one
Person to person, touching hands
Person to person, that's what love demands

Six weeks, long time to be without you sugar
But what can I do
Working hard on the other side of the world
Might as well be on the moon
Wish that I could write it all down
And put it in a letter to you
Feelin' like I do right now
Won't make it any better to you
Just got to be

Person to person, face to face
Person to person, one to one
Person to person, we can't replace
Person to person, that's just how it gets done

Person to person, line to line
Person to person, just keepin' time

Varjoon-Suojaan


Varjoon-Suojaan
First performance by: Fredi - 1967



Varjoon alta polttavan auringon
varjoon tieltä tuskien päästävä on
Suojaan alta hehkuvan taivahan
suojaan luokse vihreän keitahan

Yllä auringon hohde
alla on polttava maa
mielessä varjoisa kohde
jonne yksin kulkea saan

Varjoon alta polttavan auringon
varjoon pian pois minun päästävä on
Suojaan alta hehkuvan taivahan
suojaan alle lehmuston tuuhean

Varjoon valokeilojen julkeain
varjoon tahdon seurasta kuuluisain
Suojaan luota polttavan rakkauden
suojaan luokse kaipauksen hiljaisen

Rauhaton eloni on vain
kaiken nyt kestää mä saan
Jo mainetta kylliksi sain
rauhaa mä kaipailen vaan

Varjoon valokeiloista tahdon pois
varjoon yksinäistä vain siellä ois
Suojaan tahdon viimeinkin rauhaisaan
silloin vasta onneni vihdoin saan

Singing A Happy Song


Singing A Happy Song
Performer(s): Dorsey Brothers Orch.



Any wonder I’m happy, any wonder I smile
If you follow my advice, you’ll never go wrong
Anyone can be happy, making living worthwhile
If you open up your heart and sing a song

The sun’s shining, there’s no hiding
Your hat’s lined with a silver lining
And you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song
You hear the birds singing and bells ringing
And you’ll find what a joy they’re bringing
‘Cause you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song
Are, are you ready now – come on and sing
Doh, ray, me, fah, soh, lah, te, it’s just the easiest thing
The sun’s shining, there’s no hiding
Your hat’s lined with a silver lining
And you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song

Perrine Était Servante


Perrine Était Servante
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Les Compagnons de la Chanson; Annie Cordy



Perrine était servante
Perrine était servante
Chez Monsieur le Curé, digue donda dondaine
Chez Monsieur le Curé, digue donda dondé!

Son amant vint la vouère
Son amant vint la vouère
Un soir après l'dîner...

Perrine, ô ma Perrine
Perrine, ô ma Perrine
J'voudrais bien t'embrasser...

Oh! grand nigaud qu't'es bête
Oh! grand nigaud qu't'es bête
Ça s'fait sans s'demander!...

V'la M'sieur l'curé qu'arrive
V'la M'sieur l'curé qu'arrive
Où j'va t'y bien m'cacher? ...

Cache-toi dedans la huche!
Cache-toi dedans la huche!
I' n'saura pas t'trouver! ...

Il y resta six s'maines
Il y resta six s'maines
Elle l'avait oublié! ...

Au bout de six semaines
Au bout de six semaines
Les rats l'avaient bouffé! ...

Ils avaient rongé son crâne
Ils avaient rongé son crâne
Et puis tous les doigts de pied ...

On fit creuser son crâne
On fit creuser son crâne
Pour faire un bénitier...

On fit monter ses jambes
On fit monter ses jambes
Pour faire deux chandeliers...

Voilà la triste histoire
Voilà la triste histoire
D'un jeune homme à marier...

Qu'allait trop voir les filles
Qu'allait trop voir les filles
Le soir après l'dîner! ...

Quel Coeur Vas-Tu Briser


Quel Coeur Vas-Tu Briser
First performance by: Géraldine - 1967



Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Maintenant que le mien
A cessé de battre pour toi?
Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Puisque je n'ai plus rien
Rien de toi que des mots sans voix?

Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Et lui donnant l'espoir
D'une vie de rêve pour deux?
Quel coeur vas-tu briser
En lui donnat à croire
Que toi seul peux le rendre heureux', heureux'

C'est si facile de faire croire
À des chemins semés de fleurs
Surtout lorsqu'on parle à un coeur
Qui ne demande qu'à y croire

Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Maintenant que le mien
Ne croit plus en rien, ni en toi'
Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Pour le seul plaisir, vain
De sentir qu'il vit sous ta loi?

Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Pour suivant ton chemin
En croyant que tu vis ta vie?
Quel coeur vas-tu briser
Tout le long de ta vie
Le tien, le tien, le tien

Permiteme Vida


Permiteme Vida
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco



Baila y baila la ilusion
de que mañana todo ira mejor
pisan los charcos
de mi corazon cargado
de ausencia y de soledad, ahh ahhh ahhh

Salta y salta la esperanza
de que que pasado todo habra cambiando
eso digo yo que soy
uno cualquiera que vive
del lado que desespera

Juega y juega torturando
esta historia macabra que nunca termina
permitime vida
tomar tu fantasia
en torno a tu melancolia

Singin' A Country Song


Singin' A Country Song
Composer(s): Don Devaney
Performer(s): Dick Curless



When I go out at night I know it won't be very long
Till I find a bar where the jukebox plays a country music song
I'll get a roll of quarters and pick out my favorite song
And I'll sit there drinkin' a beer, singin' along, singin' along with

Hey Mister Fiddle Man, strike up that fiddle band
And anything Hank Thompson sings, 'cause he's my number one man
And Jim Ed Brown reminds me time to Pop A Top again
Then Haggard sings about Carolyn, I wish I could sing like him
Then Jerry Lee and Bobby McGee, till that roll of quarters is gone
Drinkin' a beer, singin' a country song

When I stay home at night, I turn the record player on
I never watch the TV set unless Hee Haw is on
Well I get to hear Buck Owens and then Roy Clark sing a song
And I sit there drinkin' a beer, singin' along, singin' along with

Hey Mr Fiddle Man, strike up that fiddle band
And there's nothin' like old Charley Pride to bring a country song
alive
Then Jim Ed Brown reminds me time to Pop A Top again
And that lucky Conway Twitty gets to sing with Loretta Lynn
Then Jerry Lee and Bobby McGee and me singin' along
Drinkin' a beer, singin' a country song
Let's keep it country
Singin' a beer and drinkin' a country song
Ain't nothin' like it
Drinkin' a beer singin' a country song

Permissive Twit


Permissive Twit
Composer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan: Big Jim Sullivan



Oh Heaven help our Linda
She's really done it now
What's more it's all so obvious
I mean her stomachs sticking out
If father tells me' mother
She's bound to have a fit
Followed by a neat convulsion
Thanks to our permissive twit
She thinks his name was Ronald
Or was it Sid or Len
The only thing that's certain
Is that it wasn't Bill or Ben
Our parish priest God bless him
The very reverend Father Pitt
Will no doubt be preaching sermons
To our dear Permissive Twit
By now the word
Will no doubt have been heard
By almost every bleeding nosy parker in our alley
all except that is
Our own great aunt Liz
Who I hear's been deaf since the day our Grace
recorded Sally, Sally, Sally

Unless we raise the money
She'll have to let it out
What I mean is she will have to
Have it the right way wrong way about
In other words let nature
Take its course and do its bit
For the sake of those concerned with
Own dear permissive
Dear permissive twit

Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps


Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
Composer(s): Joe Davis; Osvaldo Farrés
Performer(s): Doris Day - 1965;
and various other artists



You won't admit you love me
And so how am I ever to know?
You always tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

A million times I've asked you,
And then I ask you over again
You only answer
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna wind up
Being parted, broken-hearted

So if you really love me
Say yes, but if you don't dear, confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna wind up
Being parted, broken-hearted

So if you really love me
Say yes, but if you don't dear, confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps, perhaps, (giggle) perhaps

O Vento Mudou


O Vento Mudou
Composer(s): Nuno Nazareth Fernandes; João Magalhães Pereira
First performance by: Eduardo Nascimento - 1967



Ouçam
Ouçam
E o vento mudou
Ela não voltou
As aves partiram
As folhas caíram

Ela quis viver
E o mundo correr
Prometeu voltar
Se o vento mudar

E o vento mudou
E ela não voltou
Sei que ela mentiu
P'ra sempre fugiu
Vento por favor
Traz-me o seu amor
Vê que eu vou morrer
Sem não mais a ter

Nuvens tenham dó
Que eu estou tão só
Batam-lhe à janela
Chorem sobre ela
E as nuvens choraram
E quando voltaram
Soube que mentira
P'ra sempre fugira
Nuvens por favor
Cubram minha dor
Já que eu vou morrer
Sem não mais a ter

Ouçam Ouçam ouçam Ouçam ouçam
