Hurlevent


Hurlevent
Composer(s): M. Cywie; P. Loiseau; G. Stern
Performer(s): Dave



Sur les hauts de Hurlevent, je suis venu souvent
me promener parmi les pierres, et m'allonger dans la bruyère
pour penser à toi... penser à toi

Mais si le vent te fais peur, tu n'as plus rien à craindre
je t'appendrais à l'aimer si tu viens me rejoindre

Et nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour où chantera le vent
Nous graverons nos deux cœurs sur les vieux murs de pierres
nous ouvrirons les fenêtres envahies par le lierre
Et nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour, qui défiera le temps

Hurlevent n'attend que toi, et moi je reste là
les yeux perdus vers l'horizon, je garde encore mes illusions
tu viendras demain... tu viendras demain

Mais si le vent te fais peur, tu n'as plus rien à craindre
je t'appendrais à l'aimer si tu viens me rejoindre

Et nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour où chantera le vent
Nous graverons nos deux cœurs sur les vieux murs de pierres
nous ouvrirons les fenêtres envahies par le lierre
Et nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour, qui défiera le temps

Nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour où chantera le vent...
Nous graverons nos deux cœurs sur les vieux murs de pierres
nous ouvrirons les fenêtres envahies par le lierre
Et nous ferons des hauts de Hurlevent
un paradis d'amour, qui défiera le temps

A Primera Vista


A Primera Vista
((English & Portuguese Versions: At First Sight (by Pedro Aznar); A Primeira Vista (by Chico César))
Composer(s): Chico César - Pedro Aznar
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



Cuando no tenía nada deseé
Cuando todo era ausencia esperé
Cuando tuve frío temblé
Cuando tuve coraje llamé

Cuando llegó carta la abrí
Cuando escuché a Prince (Salif Keita) bailé
Cuando el ojo brilló entendí
Cuando me crecieron alas volé

Cuando me llamó allá fui
Cuando me di cuenta estaba ahí
Cuando te encontré me perdí
En cuanto te vi me enamoré

Hurdy Gurdy Man


Hurdy Gurdy Man
Composer(s): Donovan
Performer(s): Donovan



Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I open my eyes to take a peep
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquillity
'Twas then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love,
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity
'Tis then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Here comes the roly poly man and he's singing songs of love
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly, poly he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang?

Hunting Tigers Out In "Indiah"


Hunting Tigers Out In "Indiah"
Composer(s): Stanley Damerell; Evans; Hargreaves
Performer(s): The Bonzo Dog Band



With big, hungry tigers, table manners have no place
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no
After they have eaten you, they never say their Grace
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no

Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run

Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!

You all know how beastly tigers are
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"

They bite, they scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them and saying "puss puss puss"
Oh, hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!

They bite, they scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them and saying "puss puss puss"
Oh, hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!

"I say, J.O., it's jolly frightening out here"
"Nonsense, dear boy, you should be like me!"
"But look at you, you're shaking all over!"
"Shaking, you silly goose, I'm just doing the Watusi, that's all"

Tigers don't go out on rainy nights
They've no need to whet their appetites

Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!

How many tigers can you find with forks and serviettes?
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no
Don't care in what part of you they fix their fretwork sets
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no

Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run!
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!

At First Sight


At First Sight
((Portuguese & Spanish Versions: A Primeira Vista (by Chico César); A Primera Vista (by Pedro Aznar))
Composer(s): Chico César - Pedro Aznar
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



When I had nothing I desired
When all was absence I waited
When I was cold I trembled
When I had the courage I called

When the letter arrived I opened it
When I heard Prince (Salif Keita) I danced
When the eye sparkled I understood
When I grew wings I flew

When I was called, there I went
When I took notice I was there
When I found you I lost myself
As soon as I saw you I fell in love

Hunter


Hunter
Composer(s): Björk
Performer(s): Björk



If travel is searching
And home what's been found
I'm not stopping

I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'll bring back the goods
But don't know when

I thought I could organize freedom
How Scandinavian of me
How Scandinavian
How Scandinavian
You sussed it out, didn't you?

You could smell it
So you left me on my own
To complete the mission
Now I'm leaving it all behind

I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm going hunting
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter
I'm the hunter

A Pretty Girl Milking Her Cow


A Pretty Girl Milking Her Cow
Composer(s): Roger Edens
Performer(s): Judy Garland
and multiple other artists



Twas on a bright morning in Summer
When I first heard his voice spakin' low
As he said to a colleen beside him
"Who's that pretty girl milking her cow?"

Och many times often ye met me
And told me that I should be
You darling, Acushla
A Lana Mavourneen, Asuilish machree

Purty girl, purty girl
With no on there to show her how
The purt, purt, purty girl is now
Milking her cow

I have not the manners or graces
Of the girls in the world where ye move
And I have not their beautiful faces
But oh, I've a heart that can love

And if it please ye, I'll dress me in satin
With jewels, jewels in me brow
But och, don't be after forgettin'
Your purty girl milking her cow

Purty girl, purty cow,
I'm sure this song would have never been wrote
If the pretty girl hadda been milking her goat
But the goat wasn't feeling well anyhow
So the pretty girl was milking her cow

Her cow, her cow...
La, la, la, la, la, la...
La, la, la la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
A purty girl milking her cow!

Hungry Planet


Hungry Planet
Composer(s): Skip Battin; Kim Fowley; Roger McGuinn
Performer(s): The Byrds



I'm a hungry planet
I had a youthful face
They were in a hurry
To go to outer space
They needed bombs and tungsten
Ore and iron too
So they climbed and they dug and they blew
Divided me right in two
I'm a hungry planet
Orbiting in the sky
The things they did to hurt me
Pass on by and by
Now here I am all alone
They never ever learn
Well I had to shake and quake
And make their houses burn
I'm a hungry planet
I had the bluest seas
Oh the people kept choppin' down
All my finest trees
Poisonin' my oxygen
Diggin' into my skin
Takin' more out of my good earth
Than they'll ever put back in
I'm a hungry planet

A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody


A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody
From the film "There's No Business Like Show Business" (1954)
Composer(s): Irving Berlin



A pretty girl is like a melody
That haunts you night and day
Just like the strain of a haunting refrain
She'll start up on a marathon
And run a-round your brain
You can't escape, she's in your memory
Bby morning night and noon
She will leave you and then
Come back again
A pretty girl is just like a pretty tune

Hungry Like The Wolf


Hungry Like The Wolf
Composer(s): Simon LeBon; Nick Rhodes;
Andy Taylor; John Taylor; Roger Taylor
Performer(s): Duran Duran



Dark in the city night is a wire
Steam in the subway earth is afire
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
Woman you want me give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you.
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
High blood Drumming on your skin it's so tight
You feel my heart I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound. I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf.
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound. I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

À Present, Tu Peux T'en Aller


À Present, Tu Peux T'en Aller
((Adapted from: I Only Want To Be With You (by Dusty Springfield - 1963))
((Spanish Version: Ahora Te Puedes Marchar (by Les Surfs) - 1971))
Composer(s): Mike Hawker - Ivor Raymonde - Gérard Bourgeois - Jean Max Rivière
Performer(s): Richard Anthony; Les Surfs - 1964



Si seulement tu m'avais dit la vérité
Nous ne serions pas sur le point de nous quitter
J'aurais toujours gardé au fond de moi
L'amour que j'ai eu peur de perdre tant de fois
Et que l'on m'a volé, à présent tu peux t'en aller

J'aurais voulu alors qu'il était encore temps
Que tu viennes vers moi un peu comme une enfant
Tout m'avouer en face j'aurais compris
Mais puisque ce sont les autres qui me l'ont dit
Moi je veux t'oublier, à présent, tu peux t'en aller

Tu peux chercher encore à reprendre de ta chance
Mais il est trop tard pour nous deux
Rien n'a plus d'importance
Je t'avais dit qu'il ne fallait pas prendre l'amour comme une jeu
Tu n'avais pas le droit, nous étions si heureux
Et toutes tes larmes ne pourront pas
Me rendre la confiance que j'avais pour toi
Je ne veux plus t'aimer, à présent, tu peux t'en aller

Pourtant je veux quand même te redonner ta chance
Il est encore temps pour nous deux
Déjà tout recommence
Et c'est pourquoi: Malgré ce que tu m'as fait
Je veux te donner
L'amour que tous les autres ont voulu te voler
Et que tu gardais au fond de toi
En sachant bien qu'un jour tu reviendras vers moi
Pour te faire pardonner
Et qu'enfin l'on pourrait s'aimer
Et qu'enfin l'on pourrait s'aimer

Hungry Heart


Hungry Heart
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen;
and various other artists



Got a wife and kids in Baltimore Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going

Chorus
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Lay down your money and you play your part
Everybody's got a hungry heart

I met her in a Kingston bar
We fell in love I knew it had to end
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Now here I am down in Kingston again

Chorus

Everybody needs a place to rest
Everybody wants to have a home
Don't make no difference what nobody says
Ain't nobody like to be alone

Chorus

((French Version: À Present, Tu Peux T'en Aller (by Richard Anthony) - 1964))
Composer(s): Mike Hawker - Ivor Raymonde
Performer(s): Les Surfs - 1971



Si siempre tu me hubieras dicho la verdad
no habría un motivo para regañar
y hubiera guardado dentro de mí

la llama del amor que siempre te pedí
y no me quisiste dar
Ahora te puedes marchar

Hubieramos podido llegar a fundir
el ritmo de dos corazones al latir
por que no quisiste oir mi voz

ya es tarde para darle una solución
yo te quiero olvidar
Ahora te puedes marchar

Tu llanto ya no puede
mi decisión cambiar
porque aun sufre mi corazón
por culpa de aquel amor

Pues no te diste cuenta
que es malo jugar
con el cariño que otro
te ha podido dar

Si tu has decidido volver a mí
y que te entregue
lo que antes te ofrecí
comprende es tarde ya
ahora te puedes marchar

Tu llanto ya no puede
mi decisión cambiar
porque aun sufre mi corazón
por culpa de aquel amor

Pues no te diste cuenta
que es malo jugar
con el cariño que otro
te ha podido dar

Si tu has decidido volver a mí
y que te entregue
lo que antes te ofrecí
comprende es tarde ya
ahora te puedes marchar

Comprende es tarde ya
ahora te puedes marchar

Hungry Freaks, Daddy


Hungry Freaks, Daddy
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa



Mr. America, walk on by your schools that do not teach
Mr. America, walk on by the minds that won't be reached
Mr. America try to hide the emptiness that's you inside
But once you find that the way you lied
And all the corny tricks you tried
Will not forestall the rising tide of hungry freaks, daddy!

They won't go on four no more
Great mid-western hardware store
Philosophy that turns away
From those who aren't afraid to say what's on their minds
The left behinds of the great society

Hungry freaks, daddy!

Mr. America, walk on by your supermarket dream
Mr. America, walk on by the liquor store supreme
Mr. America try to hide the product of your savage pride
The useful minds that it denied
The day you shrugged and stepped aside
You saw their clothes, and then you cried
"Those hungry freaks, daddy!"

They won't go on four no more
Great mid-western hardware store
Philosophy that turns away
From those who aren't afraid to say what's on their minds
The left behinds of the great society

A Present For Bob


A Present For Bob
Composer(s): Bob Chrystal - Bob DeJohn - Dux DeJohn
Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band; De John Sisters



I’ve got a present for Bo-ob
An old fashioned present for Bo-ob
I don’t have a reason
It isn’t the season
For giving a present for Bob
It isn’t a present for Jack
It couldn’t be given to Jim
A lifetime of pleasure
With something he’ll treasure
All wrapped up in lace just for Jim

It’s not a car that he can drive through town
It’s not a plane that he can fly up and down
It’s not a boat that he would like to steer
It’s something I know he’d like to have near

I’ve got a present for Bo-ob
And soon I’ll present it to Bo-ob
Our days‘ll be sunny
He’ll say “Thank you Honey”
The present for Robert is…….

Not a car that he can drive through town
Not a plane that he can fly up and down
Not a boat that he would like to steer
It’s something I know he’d like to have near

I’ve got a present for Bo-ob
And soon I’ll present it to Bo-ob
My day’s’ll be sunny
He’ll say “Thank you Honey”
And he’ll be so happy to see
That the present for Robert is Me

Hungry For Love


Hungry For Love
Composer(s): Mills
Performer(s): Johnny Kidd & The Pirates



I’m so hungry, so hungry for love
I’m so hungry, so hungry for love

What’s the use of worrying
You don’t care about the mood I’m in
I just wanna spend every week, every day, every hour with you
Oh, won’t you change your mind and be a little kind
I’m so hungry for love

Just remember, and you’ll feel so glad
There were times when you made me feel bad

What’s the use of worrying
You don’t care about the mood I’m in
I just wanna spend every week, every day, every hour with you
Oh, won’t you change your mind and be a little kind
I’m so hungry for love

What’s the use of worrying
You don’t care about the mood I’m in
I just wanna spend every week, every day, every hour with you
Oh, won’t you change your mind and be a little kind
I’m so hungry for love

So hungry for love

A Precious Little Thing Called Love


A Precious Little Thing Called Love
Composer(s): Lou Davis - J. Fred Coots
Performer(s): George Olsen
and multiple other artists



Why does my heart miss a beat
At the footsteps on the street
It's a precious little thing called love

Why am I content alone
When I know someone will phone
It's a precious little thing called love

I see a day in June, a wedding tune
A honeymoon cruise
Friends I know, who will throw
Some rice and old shoes

What's the one thing makes me say
Heaven's just across the way
It's a precious little thing called love

Hungry Eyes (Sad Café)


Hungry Eyes
Composer(s): Vic Emerson; Paul Young
Performer(s): Sad Café



I'm a traveller, I'm a tinker
I make my money and I move around
It's kind of funny how you tied me down
With those hungry eyes
You're a lady but you messed up
I need your trouble like a hole in the head
It's kind of funny how you shoot me dead
With those hungry eyes
Hungry eyes keep looking at me
Hungry eyes tell me what do they see
No there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Need those hungry eyes looking at me
It's no joke 'cause I'm a no-hope
I wish I wasn't 'cause I wanted to be
The kind of lover who'd always be
With those hungry eyes
You're a lady, you're so messed up
I seen you hanging round with some of your friends
It's kind of funny how they make amends
With those hungry eyes
Hungry eyes keep looking at me
Hungry eyes tell me what do they see
No there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Need those hungry eyes looking at me
Another time another place
Another empty space
I need to be alive, I need to be
You are to me a fire to keep me warm
You keep me free from harm
If it could only be
But there's no chance
No chance of romance
I want to see you but you've disappeared
And I don't ever get to soothe the tears
From those hungry eyes
You're a lady but it's no good
You wanna burn me when you're feeling down
Don't understand it, you make me a clown
With those hungry eyes
Hungry eyes keep looking at me
Hungry eyes tell me what do they see
No there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Need those hungry eyes looking at me
I need those hungry eyes, I need those
Hungry eyes keep looking at me
Hungry eyes tell me what do they see
No there ain't no place that I'd rather be
Need those hungry eyes looking at me

Todos: :
Vamos tratar uma hospedagem
Pra descansar e seguir viagem

Gata:
Olha que linda aquela pensão
Se chama ``Pousada do bom barão''

Jumento:
Para mim, esse nome, não sei não

Galinha:
Já tou por aqui de tanto barão

Gata:
Mas vamos, mas vamos, não custa tentar
É só pruma noite e depois se mandar

Cachorro:
Ai, ai, ali tem uma placa
Que cheira a uma bruta urucubaca

Todos:
Proibida a entrada
Exijo gravata e dados pessoais
Proibido aos mendigos e aos animais
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Jumento:
Puxa, puxa, que desacato
Eu, afinal, sou Jumento: ou rato?

Cachorro:
Poxa, poxa, que desrespeito
Se duvidar, eu entro no peito

Galinha:
Cacilda, cacilda, que bela tramóia
Já tava pensando numa bóia

Gata:
Que bode, que bode, mas isso é o fim
Parece que Todos: estão contra mim

Crianças:
Tentem olhar ali pela janela
Quem sabe não tem ninguém dentro dela
E se for assim vocês podem entrar
Fazer uma boca e se arrancar

Jumento:
Puxa, puxa, o que é que estou vendo?
Vivendo e aprendendo, vivendo e aprendendo
Tem quatro pessoas naquele salão
E uma das quatro é o meu patrão

Cachorro:
Poxa, poxa, vejam vocês
É o meu patrão já com os outros três

Gata:
Que grilo, que grilo, não é uma boa
Aquela coroa é a minha patroa

Cacilda, cacilda, coisa de maluco
É o meu patrão que tá com o trabuco

Crianças:
Caramba, caramba, como é que é
Eu acho que é hora de dar no pé
Pra quem não quiser entrar de gaiato
O melhor negócio é dormir no mato

Todos:
Caramba, caramba, como é que é
Eu acho que é hora de dar no pé
Pra quem não quiser entrar de gaiato
O melhor negócio é dormir no mato

Jumento:
Porém, porém, já tou fulo da vida
Ter toda a razão e nenhuma comida

Cachorro:
A minha barriga não se acostuma
A ter toda razão e comida nenhuma

Galinha:
Porém, porém, já me sinto aflita
Me sinto assada, acho que tou frita

Gata:
É já, é já, vamos sentar a pua
Botar os safados no meio da rua

Todos:
Quatro juntos braços dados
Damos o fora nesses safados
Braços dados juntos quatro
Chutar os safados pra fora do teatro
Dados juntos quatro braços
E esses safados já tão no bagaço
Quatro braços dados juntos
E esses safados vão virar presunto
