Prelude - Nothin' To Hide


Prelude - Nothin' To Hide
Composer(s): Randy California
Performer(s): Spirit



You have the world at your fingertips
No one can make it better than you
You have the world at your fingertips
But see what you've done to the rain and the sun
So many changes have all just begun, to reap
I know you're asleep
Wake Up

Swastika plug in your wear
Jealous stars in you're pants
Top turning nothing to bear
Except the view or the dare
We got nothing to hide
No we got nothing to hide
We're married to the same bride
We're married to the same bride
She eats away from inside
And we got nothing to hide
Drink down it, a jug full of beer
The bloated heads in your hands
Thats freezing the mouse trap is there
He knows he's blown his last chance
We got nothing to hide
No we got nothing to hide
We're married to the same bride
We're married to the same bride
She eats away from inside
And we got nothing to hide

We got nothing to hide
No we got nothing to hide
We're married to the same bride
We're married to the same bride
She eats away from inside
And we got nothing to hide

Well alright, well alright, well alright

Humanahum


Humanahum
Composer(s): Joe Gracy - Jean-Paul Cara
First performance by: Jean Gabilou - 1981



Sur une galaxie en l'an trois mille (En l'an trois mille)
Un vieil homme est assis sur le sol gris (Sur le sol gris)
Autour de lui, tous les enfants sont réunis
Pour écouter ce qu'il va raconter

Regardez, mes petits, là-bas, dans la nuit (Là, dans la nuit)
Cette boule qui brille était pleine de vie (Pleine de vie)
Les hommes de naguère en étaient fiers
Et l'avaient baptisée: la Terre

Humanahum, Humanahum, Humanahum, terre, terre des hommes

Il y avait de l'eau et de grands arbres (C'est quoi un arbre?)
Et des milliers d'oiseaux volant sur les vagues (C'est quoi une vague?)
Et plein de fruits dans les vallées et les prairies
Et les forêts savaient encore chanter

Il y avait des femmes et des filles en fleurs (C'est quoi une fleur?)
Les hommes les portaient autour de leurs cœurs (C'est quoi un cœur?)
Les femmes de naguère en étaient fières
L'amour était fruit de la terre

Humanahum, Humanahum, Humanahum, terre, terre des hommes

Et voilà, mes amis, l'histoire est finie (Pourquoi finie?)
Cette boule qui brille n'a plus de vie (N'a plus de vie)
Les hommes de naguère étaient tous frères
Mais ils ont inventé la guerre

Humanahum, Humanahum, Humanahum, terre, terre des hommes

Humanahum, Humanahum, Humanahum, terre, terre des hommes

Humanahum

Preguntas Por Puerto Montt
Composer(s): Victor Jara
Performer(s): Victor Jara



Muy bien voy a preguntar
por ti por ti por aquel
por ti que quedaste solo
y el que murio sin saber
Muy bien voy a preguntar
por ti por ti por aquel
por ti que quedaste solo
y el que murio sin saber

Murio sin saber por que
le acribillaban el pecho
luchando por el derecho
y un suelo para vivir
Hay que ser mas infeliz
el que mando disparar
sabiendo como evitar
una matanza tan vil
Puerto Montt, oh, Puerto Montt
Puerto Montt, oh, Puerto Montt

Usted debe responder
señor Perez Sujovic
por que al pueblo indefenso
contestaron con fusil
Señor Perez su conciencia
la enterro en un ataud
y no limpiaran sus manos
toda la lluvia del sur
toda la lluvia del sur

Murio sin saber por que
le acribillaban el pecho
luchando por el derecho
y un suelo para vivir
Hay que ser mas infeliz
el que mando disparar
sabiendo como evitar
una matanza tan vil
Puerto Montt, oh, Puerto Montt
Puerto Montt, oh, Puerto Montt

Sob Medida


Sob Medida
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Simone
and multiple other artists



Se você crê em Deus
Erga as mão para os déus
E agradeça
Quando me cobiçou
Sem querer acertou
Na cabeça
Eu sou sua alma gêmea
Sou sua fêmea
Seu par, sua irmã
Eu sou seu incesto (seu jeito, seu gesto)
Sou perfeita porque
Igualzinha a você
Eu não presto
Eu não presto

Traiçoeira e vulgar
Sou sem nome e sem lar
Sou aquela
Eu sou filha da rua
Eu sou cria da sua
Costela
Sou bandida
Sou solta na vida
E sob medida
Pros carinhos seus
Meu amigo
Se ajeite comigo
E dê graças a Deus

Se você crê em Deus
Encaminhe pros céus
Uma prece
E agraceça ao Senhor
Você tem o amor
Que merece

Preguntas que de dónde vengo
Cuando llego tarde
Preguntas... preguntas
Preguntas que por qué de noche
Mi piel ya no arde
Preguntas... preguntas
Y mi respuesta es la misma de ayer
¡Ay! cariño mío
Es privilegio muy mío, mujer
Llegar tarde y además con frío
Preguntas que por qué mis ropas
Huelen tan distinto
Preguntas... preguntas
Preguntas que por qué los labios
Ya no te despinto
Preguntas... preguntas
Y mi respuesta es la misma de ayer
Estoy seguro
Es privilegio muy mío, mujer
Cambiar de olor sin más apuro
Preguntas que si no te quiero
Lo mismo que antes
Preguntas... pa' qué preguntas
Preguntas que si tengo una
Dos o tres amantes
Preguntas... preguntas
Y mi respuesta es la misma de ayer
A ti ya ni te extraña
Es privilegio muy mío, mujer
Engañar a quien... a quien me engaña
Preguntas... preguntas
Preguntas... pa' qué preguntas
Y me preguntas, preguntas, preguntas...

Reggae O.K.
Ja jos ei kaikille viel tuttu silti koko ajan paalla

Tata biittia pitaa jo omanaan

Ja mantti joka sanoo kiitti mulle riitti

Taa rytmi menee tajuntaan se soundi on kuin pommi
Reggae O.K.
Sen opit kylla tosta vaan se tuttu on kuin rommi
Reggae O.K.

Ja jos kiinnostaa taa meno nyt
Niin nauti siita kunnes menehdyt
Ja kohta sakin sanot taa biitti mulle kiitti
Reggae O.K.

Pregunta A Pregunta
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael



Dime papá, ¿Por qué se secan las flores?
¿De dónde vienen las lluvias?
¿Y por qué sale la luna
Cuando me voy a acostar?
Dime papá, ¿Dónde va el sol por la noche?
Y esas estrellas que brillan
¿Dónde se esconden de día?
Que no las veo jamás
Y así, pregunta a pregunta
Y así sin fin preguntando
Se fue quedando dormido en mis brazos
Dime papá, ¿Por qué sale el arco iris?
¿Y por qué ladran los perros?
¿Por qué esa furia del viento
Que no deja de silbar?
Dime papá, ¿Quién pinta blanca la nieve?
¿Quién hizo así la mañana?
¿Por qué los pájaros cantan
Y no paran de cantar?

So Young


So Young
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones



I met her in a movie house, she was playin' the arcades
And posing with her hang hair down, lookin' a little bit unmade
She spoke in broken English, I replied in broken French
'Come and share my popcorn, it's not a federal offense

She's so young, God help me, she's so young

Her skin was kind of pudgy, got spots all on her face
From wearin' too much makeup, and she wasn't walkin' straight
She drove her daddy's car, she got a genuine teenage drag
She always find a popper, to be hidden in her stash

She's so young, God help me, she's so young
So young, so young
So young, so young

She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back!
She's so young

Well I took her down to Barney's, bought her a brand new set of boots
She tried 'em in my arms, and's lookin' terminally cute
I tried to take it easy, put my dick back on a leash
If I see big trouble comin', I'm gonna beat a quick retreat

She's so young, God help me, she's so young
So young, so young
So young, so young

She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back
She's so young, yeah
So young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never gonna steal my heart away
I might not get it back
Yeah, she's so young

So young, so young
So young
I ain't never gonna give my heart away
I might not get it back
She's so young, so young
So young
I ain't never gonna give my heart away
I might not get it back

Krøller Eller Ej


Krøller Eller Ej
Composer(s): Tommy Seebach - Keld Heick
First performance by: Debbie Cameron & Tommy Seebach - 1981



Jeg har en søn
På to
Med store lyse krøller
Jeg har en dreng
På tre
Med store brune øjne
Jamen, jeg har bare én mer' end du har
Okay, måske, men igen er bedre end min
For han er bare helt speciel
Hvis jeg må si' det selv

Krøller eller ej - vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej - vi elsker jeres børn
For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

Længe leve alle børn
Lyse krøller eller ej - vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej - vi elsker jeres børn
For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

Preghiera In Gennaio


Preghiera In Gennaio
Composer(s): Fabrizio de André
Performer(s): Fabrizio de André



Lascia che sia fiorito
Signore, il suo sentiero
quando a te la sua anima
e al mondo la sua pelle
dovrà riconsegnare
quando verrà al tuo cielo
là dove in pieno giorno
risplendono le stelle

Quando attraverserà
l'ultimo vecchio ponte
ai suicidi dirà
baciandoli alla fronte
venite in Paradiso
là dove vado anch'io
perché non c'è l'inferno
nel mondo del buon Dio

Fate che giunga a Voi
con le sue ossa stanche
seguito da migliaia
di quelle facce bianche
fate che a voi ritorni
fra i morti per oltraggio
che al cielo ed alla terra
mostrarono il coraggio

Signori benpensanti
spero non vi dispiaccia
se in cielo, in mezzo ai Santi
Dio, fra le sue braccia
soffocherà il singhiozzo
di quelle labbra smorte
che all'odio e all'ignoranza
preferirono la morte

Dio di misericordia
il tuo bel Paradiso
lo hai fatto soprattutto
per chi non ha sorriso
per quelli che han vissuto
con la coscienza pura
l'inferno esiste solo
per chi ne ha paura

Meglio di lui nessuno
mai ti potrà indicare
gli errori di noi tutti
che puoi e vuoi salvare

Ascolta la sua voce
che ormai canta nel vento
Dio di misericordia
vedrai, sarai contento
Dio di misericordia
vedrai, sarai contento

So You Win Again


So You Win Again
Composer(s): Russ Ballard
Performer(s): Hot Chocolate



Just to admit one mistake
That can be hard to take
I know we've made them fall
But only fools come back for more
Being the fool I am
I figured in all your plans, darling
Your perfumed letters didn't say
That you'd be leaving any day

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

And I'm not proud to say
I let love slip away
Now I'm the one who's crying
I'm a fool there's no denying
When will my heartache end
Will my whole life depend on fading memories
You took the game this time with ease

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

When will my heartache end
Will my whole life depend on fading memories
You took the game this time with ease

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

Pregherò


Pregherò (Adapted from: Stand By Me Father - 1960) Composer(s): Sam Cooke - James Alexander - Don Backy Performer(s): Adriano Celentano - 1965 Titles In Other Languages: 1961 - Stand By Me 1963 - Tu Croiras 1983 - Reste Ici 1984 - Jää Mun Luo 1989 - Op De Hoek Van De Straa



Pregherò
per te
che hai la notte nel cuor
e se tu lo vorrai crederai
Io lo so
perché
tu la fede non hai
ma se tu lo vorrai crederai
Non devi odiare il sole
perché
tu non puoi vederlo ma c'é
ora splende
su di noi, su di noi
Dal castello
del silenzio
egli vede anche te
e già sento
che anche tu lo vedrai
E chissà se lo vedrai
solo con gli occhi miei
ed il mondo la sua luce riavrà
Io t'amo, t'amo, t'amo
questo é il primo segno
che da la tua fede
nel Signor, nel Signor

Prefiero Amar


Prefiero Amar
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Me dice el corazón
que no soy de este planeta
que caí de algún cometa
fuera de circulación
O acaso sea un clon
de algo así como un salvaje
que articula algún lenguaje
de una extraña dimensión
Porque sucede
que entro la fe y la felonía
la herencia y la herejía
la jaula y la jauría
entra morir o matar
prefiero, amor, amar
prefiero amar, prefiero amar
prefiero amor, amar
También pudiera ser
que me esté volviendo loco
porque me pegó el siroco
de la levedad del ser
Y qué le voy a hacer
si me falla alguna pieza
por creer que la Belleza
no se rindo ante el poder
Porque sucede...
Y puestos a elegir
entro el oro y el Parnaso
yo me pido ser payaso
mago, acróbata o faquir
O acaso un elixir
con orgiásticas burbujas
o la bola de las brujas
donde sueña el porvenir
Porque sucede...

So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star


So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star
Composer(s): Chris Hillman - Jim McGuinn
Performer(s): The Byrds
and multiple other artists



So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star?
Then listen now to what I say
Just get an electric guitar
Then take some time
and learn how to play
And with your hair swung right
And your pants too tight
It's gonna be all right
Then it's time to go downtown
Where the agent man won't let you down
Sell your soul to the company
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware
And in a week or two
If you make the charts
The girls'll tear you apart

The price you paid for your riches and fame
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane
The money, the fame, the public acclaim
Don't forget what you are
You're a rock 'n' roll star!

Predictable


Predictable
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks



Don't know why I'm even bothering
(Predictable)
Yeah, that's the mood I'm in
Go out for a walk then I come back in
(Predictable)
Yeah, the mood that I'm in
(Predictable)
Every day of my life
Can't even communicate with my wife
(Predictable)
That's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear

Go to my office, sit at my desk
Predictably just like all of the rest
I sit and I dream about far away places
Away from the people with frowns on their faces
All of my life is monotony
I'd go out for a walk but I know it would be
(Predictable)
Sure as the nose on my face
(Predictable)
Same for the whole human race

Once we (once we) had so many options
Once we (once we) had dignity and grace
Now we (now we) have got nothing but our own time to waste

(Predictable)
Yeah, that's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear
Why can't it be like never before?
(Predictable)
Yeah, ain't life a bore
(Predictable)
Life gets more and more...
Just like I've heard it all somewhere before
(Predictable)
Sure as the nose on my face
(Predictable)
Same for the whole human race

One day (one day) it's gonna get better some way (some way)
I wish it would get worse any way (any way)
What can I lose, it might turn into something better

It gets harder and harder the harder I try
(Predictable)
Feels like a good time to die
I kiss you hello then I kiss you good-bye
(Predictable)
Just like the stain on my tie
(Predictable)
Just like the jacket I wear
(Predictable)
The way that I'm combing my hair
Turn on the TV, just sit and stare
(Predictable)
There's nothing happening there

Yeah, that's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear

C'est Peut-Être Pas L'Amérique


C'est Peut-Être Pas L'Amérique Performer(s): Jean-Claude Pascal



C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Elle vient du nord ou de Provence
Elle est tramontane ou mistral
Elle est le violon pour la danse
Ou le chœur dans la cathédrale

Elle chante dans mes soirs de fête
Elle berce mes nuits de cafard
Elle est ballade ou chansonnette
Elle est piano, elle est guitare

C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Elle vient du fond de nos mémoires
Elle vient d'avant que l'on soit né
Elle nous raconte notre histoire
Nos racines et notre passé

Si l'univers est à l'orage
Si la terre tremble sous nos pieds
Nous continuerons le voyage
Pour qu'elle n'arrête pas de chanter

C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

(C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique)
(Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout)
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Predicción De La Fiesta


Predicción De La Fiesta
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



Enciende amigo tu alegría y tu hoguera
que se acerca el tiempo de la vida
Quemad, quememos las palabras antiguas
las palabras del miedo y de la muerte

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven
Sobre los muros, los estanques, las plazas
sobre el viento y la roca escribiremos
la poesía que asalte con payasos y pólvora
la ciudad del agobio y la costumbre

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven
Instituciones alambradas y leyes
hombres de estado y otras antigüedades
serán recuerdos, pesadillas lejanas
que estudiará algún sabio bajo los árboles

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven

So You Think You've Got Troubles


So You Think You've Got Troubles
Composer(s): Marvin Rainwater
Performer(s): Marvin Rainwater



So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

My car sounds like an old tin can
My wife went off with another man
And I strained a muscle of my fishing hand
My income tax is due

Now I lost my money in a poker game
And I think my left leg is a-goin' lame
My brother asked if I'd change my name
And that's what I think I'll do

My doctor told me not to smoke
Drink nothing stronger than a coke
I'm not even supposed to hear dirty jokes
For I'd laugh and strain my heart
I had every ailment known to man
From the African mumps to a dishpan hands
I lost every race that I ever ran

I didn't even get a start

So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

Now some people call me a pessimist
They say that I oughta make the best of this
Well, maybe I am a pessimist
That's something that I wouldn't know
But one thing I do know, I'll tell you right now

I'm a-milkin' the wrong end of this old cow
There's to many wrinkles in this boy's brow
That stuff has got to go

So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

So I put me a bar in the back of my car
And drive myself to drink!
