We Are The Children Of The World
We Are The Children Of The World
Composer(s): P. Castro; M.A. Kelly
Performer(s): Diana Ross
Waiting on the wings
On the wings of time
Wonder what´s to come
And what we will find
Dancing on a dream
In the magic of our mind
Reaching for the sun
As long as it shines
Living day to day
While we´re on our way
We´ll find we´re already there
We are the children
We are the children
We are the children of the world
Underneath the blue
In a solitary light
Guiding by a star
A star in the night
The enemy we see
Is the enemy inside
Knowing we can win
Without knowing why
We´d be lost in hope
While we search for more
We find we´re already there
We are the children
We are the children
We are the children of the world
We are the children
We are the children
We are the children of the world
How many times do we look to the sky
Knowing we´ve nothing to lose
We are the children who wanted to fly
Now we can fly to the moon
We are the children
We are the children
We are the children of the world
We are the children
We are the children
We are the children of the world

Abandono
Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Leila Pinheiro; Marcia Lopes
O que será ser só
Quando outro dia amanhecer
Será recomeçar
Será ser livre sem querer
O que será ser essa moça
E ter vergonha de viver
Ter corpo pra dançar
E não ter onde me esconder
Tentar cobrir meus olhos
Pra minh'alma ninguém ver
Eu toda a minha vida
Soube só lhe pertencer
O que será ser sua sem você
Como será nua em noite de luar
Ser aluada, louca
Até você voltar
Pra que
O que será ser só
Quando outro dia amanhecer
Será recomeçar
Será ser livre sem querer
Quem vai secar meu pranto
Eu gosto tanto de você

We Are The Champions
We Are The Champions
Composer(s): Freddie Mercury
Performer(s): Queen
I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through
We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
and everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose
Won and won and won
We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world
We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions

Abandoned Love
Abandoned Love
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1985
Covered by multiple other artists
I can hear the turning of the key
I've been deceived by the clown inside of me
I thought that he was righteous but he's vain
Oh, something's a-telling me I wear the ball and chain
My patron saint is a-fighting with a ghost
He's always off somewhere when I need him most
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
But my heart is a-tellin' me I love ya still
I come back to the town from the flaming moon
I see you in the streets, I begin to swoon
I love to see you dress before the mirror
Won't you let me in your room one time 'fore I finally disappear?
Everybody's wearing a disguise
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
But me, I can't cover what I am
Wherever the children go I'll follow them
I march in the parade of liberty
But as long as I love you I'm not free
How long must I suffer such abuse
Won't you let me see you smile one time before I turn you loose?
I've given up the game, I've got to leave
The pot of gold is only make-believe
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Whose gods are dead and whose queens are in the church
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list
My head tells me it's time to make a change
But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're strange
One more time at midnight, near the wall
Take off your heavy make-up and your shawl
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Let me feel your love one more time before I abandon it

We Are In Love
We Are In Love
Composer(s): Chris Andrews
Performer(s): Adam Faith
Just the way she smiles and says hello
I can't help but let my feelings show
I'll hold her hand and tell her things I know she wants to know
(La, da, da) I will never make her blue
(La, da, da) I will never be untrue
We are in love, and we'll keep it this way
Never been so much in love before
Now I am, I want it more and more
And that Shavian love
I know we'll have for ever more
(La, da, da) I will never make her blue
(La, da, da) I will never be untrue
We are in love, and we'll keep it this way
Love, love, love, has made all my dreams come true
Love, love, love, it's strange what you can do
I'm in heaven when she kisses me
I hear angels singing happily
And with this love of mine
I'm as happy as I'll ever be
(La, da, da) I will never make her blue
(La, da, da) I will never be untrue
We are in love, and we'll keep it this way
We are in love, and we'll keep it this way

Abacab
Abacab
Composer(s): Tony Banks - Phil Collins - Mike Rutherford
Performer(s): Genesis; Charles Sheinman
Look up on the wall, there on the floor
Under the pillow, behind the door
There's a crack in the mirror
Somewhere there's a hole in a window-pane
Do you think I'm to blame?
Tell me do you think I'm to blame?
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab he's in anywhere
Abacab
If you're wrapping up the world
'Cos you've taken someone else's girl
When they turn on the pillow
Even when they answer the telephone
Don't you think that by now
Tell me, don't you think that by now
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab He's in anywhere
Abacab Doesn't really care
You want it, you got it, you gotta go
You want it, you got it, now you know
It's an illusion, it's a game
Or reflection of someone else's name
When you wake in the morning
Wake and find you're covered in cellophane
Well, there's a hole in there somewhere
Yeah, there's a hole in there somewhere
Baby, there's a hole in there somewhere
Now there's a hole in there somewhere
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab he's in anywhere

Performer(s): Sister Sledge
(Chorus:)
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up ev'rybody and sing
Ev'ryone can see we're together
As we walk on by
(Fly!) and we fly just like birds of a feather
I won't tell no lie
(All!) all of the people around us they say
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We're giving love in a family dose
(Chorus x2)
Living life is fun and we've just begun
To get our share of the world's delights
(High!) high hopes we have for the future
And our goal's in sight
(We!) no we don't get depressed
Here's what we call our golden rule
Have faith in you and the things you do
You won't go wrong
This is our family Jewel

Aba Daba Honeymoon
Aba Daba Honeymoon
((Dutch Version: Sinjorentram (by De Strangers) - 1964))
Composer(s): Arthur Fields - Walter Donovan
First release by: Arthur Collins & Byron Harlan - 1914
Covered by multiple other artists
Way down in the Congoland
Lived a happy chimpanzee
She loved a monkey with a long tail
(Lordy, how she loved him!)
Each night he would find her there
Swinging in the cocoanut tree
And the monkey gay, at the break of day
Loved to hear his Chimpie say...
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp
All night long they'd chatter away
All day long they were happy and gay
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Means "Monk, I love but you"
"Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
Then the big baboon one night in June
He married them and very soon
They went upon their aba daba honeymoon
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp
All night long they'd chatter away
All day long they were happy and gay
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Means "Monk, I love but you"
"Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
One night they were made man and wife
And now they cry, "This is the life
Since they came from their aba daba honeymoon
Well, you should have heard that band
Play upon their wedding day
Each Chimp and Monkey had nutshells
(Lordy, how they played them)
And now it is every night
High up in the cocoanut tree
It's the same old thing, with the same old swing,
When the Monk and Chimpie sing...
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp
All night long they'd chatter away
All day long they were happy and gay
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Means "Monk, I love but you"
"Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
Then the big baboon one night in June
He married them and very soon
They went upon their aba daba honeymoon
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp
All night long they'd chatter away
All day long they were happy and gay
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"

We Are Detective
We Are Detective
Composer(s): Tom Bailey; Alannah Currie; Joe Leeway
Performer(s): Thompson Twins
Somebody's watching me
and now I'm nervous and I shouldn't be
Somebody's got their eye on me
perhaps i should invite him up for tea?
We saw him smoking by the newspaper stand
there's something odd about his gloved left hand
Saw him again inside the old cafe
he makes us tense we wish he'd go away
(chorus)
We are detective
we are select
We are detective
come to collect
Somebody's after me
he left his footprints by the garden tree
Last night when I got home
I got the feeling I was not alone!
Someone is on our tail
we think they're opening up our morning mail
And now each time the telephone rings
we think of frightening things
(repeat chorus)
We dress up in disguise
to get away from all those prying eyes
Our friends all think we're mad
but we know better cos the spy is bad
(repeat chorus x2)

One day you're up and the next day you're down
You can't face the world with your head to the ground

So don't worry, boys, life will be sweet some day
Oh, oh, oh, oh

We made enough mistakes
But you know we got what it takes
Oh, we ain't got nothin' yet
No, we ain't got nothin' yet
Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down
And someday our names will be spread all over town
We can get in while the getting is good
So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
We got to make the break
'Cause we got too much at stake
We made enough mistakes
But you know we got what it takes

Wat als het duister blijft
En nooit meer zon
Wat als de regen
Nooit meer op ons vallen kon
Wat met de oorlogsstrijd
Gaat het voorbij
Wat over alles al
Dat van jou is en van mij
Weet je nog de groene weiden
En de kinderen in de klas
Weet je nog wat we toen zeiden
Toen alles nog veel beter was
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Wat is er met ons gebeurd
De wereld en ons
Alles is grauw gekleurd
En ons hart lijkt een gebons
Wat als geen bloem ontluikt
Geen vogel meer zingt
De bronnen zijn opgebruikt
En de aarde gans verminkt
Hoor het schreeuwen van de kudde
En hun angst vlak voor de dood
Heel de wereld lijkt te schudden
Eindigend in ademnood
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ik droom nog vaak
Van alles wat ik zag als kind
Maar ik kijk omhoog en rond mij
Is alles zwart, is dit het eind
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Ahahahah
Oehoehoehoeh
Heyyehe
Wat nu met gisteren
Wat met vandaag
Wat met de toekomst
En de ozonlaag
Met het concentratiekamp
Wat met politiek
Wat als heel de wereld brandt
Wat met tiranie
Wat met het laatste woord
Dat nooit werd gezegd
Wat met het toevluchtsoord
Wie kan daar terecht
Wat met de ziekte aids
Wat met het bedrog
Wat met zo heel veel wreeds
Zijt gij er nog
Wat met wat jij nog wou
Wat met ons verdriet
Vluchtelingen in het nauw
Hindoe of semiet
Wat met dieren in 't asiel
Wat met hongersnood
Wat met schrijvers in exil
Wat met 'hij moet dood'
Wat met al die kindersex
Wat met slavernij
En de prostitutie in de maatschappij
Wat met nergens leven meer
Wat met al ons geld
Wat met de stratosfeer
Zijn wij uitgeteld
Nee Nee Nee Nee
Nee Nee Nee Nee
Nee Nee Nee Nee

Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
We just as time began
Two friends reaching for a hand
We took our love to heart
Somewhere in the dark holding on for life
We speaking without lies
No words needed - feeling wise
One have holded out of two
With the love for we with just me and you
We kissed away the tease
As time took us through the eve
Smiles are letting worlds behind
Mountains we could climb never feeling rain
We tasted all the joy
Sweet dreams no one can destroy
Fools are kissing love away
Are blind to signs only we can see
We can see

A.V.H.
Composer(s): Ozzy Osbourne - Zakk Wylde - Randy Castillo
Performer(s): Ozzy Osbourne
I get up and I get down
I don't know how to take it
All the pain makes me scream and shout
I wonder if I'll make it
I love the feeling when the magic is just right
There's no revealing what is hidden in the night
Riding on a train I can't control
No one else to blame I can't let go
In the darkness I can feel
The things tht makes me crazy
Hands of madness cold as steel
I find it quite amazing
Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
Rules meant for breaking and the seeds I have to sow
Riding on a train that I can't control
No one else to blame but I can't let go
It's calling me, it's calling me
It's calling me, it's calling me
I'm riding on a train that I can't control
See no evil, fear no fright
Never lose the feeling
Keep the targets in your sight
Know the cards you're dealing
Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
Rules meant for breaking and I gotta let, I gotta let go
Riding on a train that I can't control
No one else to blame but I can't let go
It's calling me, it's calling me
It's calling me, it's calling me
I'm riding on a train that I can't control

We're gonna take a trip, girl
So slip into somethin' slinky & smooth
Just wave the world goodbye, let's fly
'Cause girl, I've got a whole lot to prove
I need to show you I know you and me
Were meant to go the whole route
If you stick with me, girl
You'll see what the game of love's all about
I'm gonna put a smile upon your face
Get ready now, you'd better brace yourself
We're gonna take a trip in outer space
Fly now, we'll be back later, girl
Come on and go with me
And you'll see what the game of love's all about
It's way way out, way way out
Way way out, way way out
Time to pack your bag, just grab my hand
And let me show you the way
I've nominated you the girl who
I would like to lead me astray
I'm gonna prove to you that love is groovy
So you'd better watch out
I'm gonna hold you, kiss you
Teach you what the game of love's all about
The moment that I saw you in the crowd
I planned to take you into orbit, girl
I'm gonna get us lost inside a cloud
'Cause that's the only way to fly
So put your trust in me
And you'll see what the game of love's all about
It's...

Way way out, way way out

Composer(s): Phil Ochs
Performer(s): Phil Ochs
We are the nation's physicians
Yes, we give to our lobbies every day
We will fight against disease when the money comes with ease
And when we get together we say
Hooray for A.M.A.
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
We've divided up the sections of the body
Every day we specialize more and more
But we really love to stitch the diseases of the rich
We are sure there is a clinic for the poor
Hooray for the A.M.A
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
And our waiting rooms are getting pretty crowded
It is sad to see our patients sit and bleed
But if you must use our ointment then you must have an appointment
Or who'll pay for those magazines you read
Hooray for the A.M.A
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay, higher pay
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
'Cause that's the free enterprise way
And now the government is getting too ambitious
Yes, we know they want to socialize us all
Well our oath was hippocratic but with money we're fanatic
So we'll see you in Canada in the fall
Hooray for the A.M.A.
And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
'Cause that's the free enterprise way

Way To Blue
Composer(s): Nick Drake
Performer(s): Nick Drake;
Raoul Graf; Elton John
Don't you have a word to show what may be done
Have you never heard a way to find the sun
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Won't you come and say
If you know the way to blue?
Have you seen the land living by the breeze
Can you understand a light among the trees
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Tell us all today
If you know the way to blue?
Look through time and find your rhyme
Tell us what you find
We will wait at your gate
Hoping like the blind
Can you now recall all that you have known?
Will you never fall
When the light has flown?
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Won't you come and say
If you know the way to blue?
