Aimer Vivre
Composer(s): Michel Berger
Johnny Hallyday
Aimer vivre
C'est écrit dans tes yeux
Quand tu parles de ta vie
C'est écrit dans tes rêves
Dans tes moindres envie
Cette force qui te porte
J'en ai besoin aussi
C'est écrit quand tu danses
Quand tu fermes les yeux
Rien n'a plus d'importance
Rien de ce qu'on avoue
Si c'est ton corps qui bouge
C'est ton cœur qui fait tout
Je veux te voir changer
Je veux te voir bouger
Je veux te voir crier ton plaisir
Je veux te voir vibrer
Et te voir te lever
je veux te voir crier tes désirs
Aimer vivre
Aimer vivre
C'est écrit dans tes mains
Quand elles suivent ma voix
C'est écrit sur ta bouche
Quand je vois ton sourire
Comme tu peux partir loin
Quand la musique est là
Tu peux mourir demain
Quand la musique est là
Je veux te voir changer
Je veux te voir bouger
Je veux te voir crier ton plaisir
Je veux te voir vibrer
Et te voir te lever
Je veux te voir crier tes désirs
Aimer vivre

Je veux te voir te lever
Je veux te voir vibrer

When I Marry Mr. Snow
When I Marry Mr. Snow (aka Mr. Snow)
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
Performer(s): Barbara Ruick;
and various other artists
Carrie:
Julie, I've been bustin' to tell you somethin' lately
Julie:
You have?
Carrie:
The reason I didn't care to tell you before is
'cause you didn't have a fella of your own
Hmm hmm...
But now that you got one, I can tell you about mine!
Julie:
I'm glad you gotta fella, Carrie!
Carrie:
His name is Mister Snow
And an upstandin' man is he
He comes home ev'ry night in his round-bottomed boat
With a net full of herring from the sea
An almost perfect beau
As refined as a girl could wish
But he spends so much time in his round-bottomed boat
That he can't seem to lose the smell of fish
The fust time he kissed me, the whiff from his clo'es
Knocked me flat on the floor of the room
But now that I love him, my heart's in my nose
And fish is my fav'rite perfume
Last night he spoke quite low
And a fair-spoken man is he
And he said, "Miss Pipperidge, I'd like it fine
If I could be wed with a wife
And, indeed, Miss Pipperidge, if you'll be mine
I'll be yours fer the rest of my life"
Next moment we were promised
And now my mind's in a maze
Fer all I ken do is look forward to
That wonderful day of days...
When I marry Mister Snow
The flowers'll be buzzin' with the hum of bees
The birds'll make racket in the churchyard trees
When I marry Mister Snow
Then it's off to home we'll go
And both of us'll look a little dreamy-eyed
A drivin' to a cottage by the oceanside
Where the salty breezes blow
He'll carry me 'cross the threshold
And I'll be as meek as a lamb
Then he'll set me on my feet
And I'll say kinda sweet, "Well, Mister Snow, here I am!"
Then I'll kiss him so he'll know
That evry'thin'll be as right as right ken be
A-livin' in a cottage by the sea with me
For I love that Mister Snow
That young seafarin',
Bold and darin',
Big bewhiskered, overbearin'
Darling, Mister Snow!
Reprise:
Girls:
When you walk down the isle all the heads will turn
What a rustlin' of bonnets there'll be
And you'll try to smile, but your cheeks will burn
And your eyes'll get so dim you can hardly see
With your orange blossoms quiverin' in your hand
And you'll stumble to the spot where the parson is
Then your finger will be ringed with a golden band
And you'll know the feller's yours, and you are his
Carrie:
When I marry Mister Snow
The flowers'll be humming with the hum of bees
The birds'll make a racket in the churchyard trees
When I marry Mister Snow
Then it's off to home we'll go
And both of us'll look a little dreamy-eyed
A drivin' to a cottage by the oceanside
Where the salty breezes blow
He'll carry me across the threshold
And I'll be as meek as a lamb
Then he'll set me on my feet
And I'll say kind of sweet, "Well Mister Snow, here I am!"
Enoch Snow:
Then I'll kiss her so she'll know
That ev'rything'll be as right as right can be
A livin' in a cottage by the sea with me
Where the salty breezes blow
I love Miss Pipperidge
And I aim to Make Miss Pipperidge
Change her name to
Missus Enoch Snow

Neapolitan Nights
Neapolitan Nights
Composer(s): John Stepan Zamecnik - Harry D. Kerr
Performer(s): Harry Reser
and multiple other artists
Twilight is falling in fair Italy stars kiss the sky
Night stealing near like a soft melody bids day good bye
There as I lingered long, entered my heart this song
Nights of romance in a world made of dreams
Always 'tis June, nights that entrance
And for ever it seems, hearts are in tune
Softly my reverie whispers this melody
Oh, nights of splendor, your charms so tender
Make love surrender till stars are gone
Oh, nights of laughter, tho' tears come after
Love's regrets, love forgets when comes the dawn
Fair Naples sleeping, a vigil keeping
While stars are weeping as they depart
Dawn bells are pealing, while night is stealing
To its nest, lulled to rest within my heart

When I Loved Her
When I Loved Her
Composer(s): Kris Kristofferson
Performer(s): Roy Drusky
and multiple other artists
Well, she didn't look as pretty as some others I have known
And she wasn't good at conversation when we were alone
But she had a way of making me believe that I belonged
And it felt like coming home, when I found her
She seemed to be so proud of me just walking holding hands
And she didn't think that money was the measure of a man
And we seemed to fit together when I held her in my arms
And it left me feelin' warm, when I loved her
'Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun
And she made what I was doin' seem worth while
It's the closest thing to living that I guess I've ever known
And it made me wanna smile, when I loved her
I know some of us were born to cast our fortunes to the winds
And I guess I'm bound to travel down a road that never ends
But I know I'll never look upon the likes of her again
And I'll never understand why I lost her
'Cause she brightened up the day like the early morning sun
And she made what I was doin' seem worth while
It's the closest thing to living that I guess I've ever known
And it made me wanna smile, when I loved her

and multiple other artists
A secret, I know a secret
A story I'll never tell
About two sweethearts
Who love each other
He is my best friend
She is his girl
The first time I saw her
I couldn't resist her
Her beauty gave me a thrill
She was so lovely
And I adored her
I fell in love with
My best friend's girl
The first time I saw her
I couldn't resist her
Her beauty gave me a thrill
She was so lovely
And I adored her
I fell in love with
My best friend's girl
And that's my secret
Yes, it's my secret
Nobody knows it
No one but I
And I will love her
Yes, I will love her
And it's my secret
Until I die

When I Lost You

Performer(s): The Mills Brothers;
and various other artists
I lost the sunshine and roses
I lost the heavens so blue

Face To Face (Gordon MacRae)
Face To Face
Composer(s): Sammy Fain
Performer(s): Gordon MacRae
The lightning seems to fly, across the summer sky
And shooting stars begin to fall around you
The most amazing things take place
Each time that we come face to face
And simply cause you're there
There's music everywhere
The melodies I hear would just astound you
And they invite us to embrace
Each time that we come face to face
And when you aren't near
The world's a wintry thing
But then when you appear
It's spring again, it's spring
The first time that we kissed
I heard my heart insist
Don't ever let him go now that he's found you
And if the skies be gray or blue
He'll face it face to face with you

When I Leave The World Behind
When I Leave The World Behind
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Al Jolson;
and various other artists
I know a millionaire
Who’s burdened down with care
A load is on his mind
He’s thinking of the day
When he must pass away
And leave his wealth behind
I haven’t any gold
To leave when I grow old
Somehow it passed me by
I’m very poor, but still
I’ll leave a precious will
When I must say goodbye
I’ll leave the sunshine to the flowers
I’ll leave the springtime to the trees
And to the old folks I’ll leave the mem’ries
Of a baby upon their knees
I’ll leave the nighttime to the dreamers
I’ll leave the songbirds to the blind
I’ll leave the moon above
To those in love
When I leave the world behind
When I leave the world behind
To ev’ry wrinkled face
I’ll leave a fireplace
To paint their fav’rite scene
Within the golden rays
Scenes of their childhood days
When they were sweet sixteen
I’ll leave them each a song
To sing the whole day long
As toward the end they plod
To ev’ry broken heart
With sorrow torn apart
I’ll leave the love of God
I’ll leave the sunshine to the flowers
I’ll leave the springtime to the trees
And to the old folks I’ll leave the mem’ries
Of a baby upon their knees
I’ll leave the nighttime to the dreamers
I’ll leave the songbirds to the blind
I’ll leave the moon above
To those in love
When I leave the world behind
When I leave the world behind

Ik hou van jou, vier woorden maar
Soms licht maar soms ook zwaar
Want geluk en verdriet en houden van
Liggen vaak dicht bij elkaar
Een hart weet nooit wat wijsheid is
Want een hart ziet maar één doel
Soms goed, soms fout omdat een hart
Niet denken kan, maar voelt
O zo lang kan de weg naar geluk soms zijn
Vaak ben je de richting kwijt
Maar hoe groot is de vreugde aan het eind
Waar de liefde naar je reikt
Ik hou van jou, vier woorden maar
Soms licht maar soms ook zwaar
Want geluk en verdriet en houden van
Liggen vaak dicht bij elkaar
Ik ben die lange weg gegaan
Tot de grens van verdriet voorbij
Als ik viel ben ik altijd opgestaan
Want aan het eind wachtte jij op mij
Ik hou van jou, vier woorden maar
Soms licht maar soms ook zwaar
Want geluk en verdriet en houden van
Liggen vaak dicht bij elkaar
Maar jij en ik en houden van
Horen voor altijd bij elkaar

1977 - Toen Ik De Leraar Kuste (Ann Christy))

Everybody screamed when I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed when I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush, he looked like a fool
Nearly petrified 'cos he was taken by surprise
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn't quite believe his eyes, when I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still, but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher
One of these days
Gonna tell him I dream of him every night
One of these days
Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright
I was in a trance when I kissed the teacher
Suddenly I took the chance when I kissed the teacher
Leaning over me, he was trying to explain the laws of geometry
And I couldn't help it, I just had to kiss the teacher
One of these days
Gonna tell him I dream of him every night
One of these days
Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright
What a crazy day, when I kissed the teacher
All my sense had flown away when I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still, but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)

Pour aimer ceux que l'on blesse
Et consoler
J'ai si peu de temps
Pour tout donner

Que je veux bercer

But now am found
Was blind but now I see

When I Kissed That Girl Good-Bye
When I Kissed That Girl Good-Bye
Composer(s): Little Jack Little
Performer(s): Leon Redbone
Now Little Willie Hubble, well he had a lot of trouble
In breaking off a certain love affair
Well he fin'ly did it, and I must admit it
Was a laugh when I heard him declare
I kissed her in the merry month of May
And I kissed her in the middle of July
Well I kissed her in the Fall but the best kiss of them all
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her on the road to Mandalay
And I kissed her in the streets of old Shanghai
But I got the biggest thrill in the town of old Seville
On the day when I kissed that gal good-bye
I kissed her in a rented Chevrolet
And I kissed her in a car she made me buy
Well I kissed her in a Ford but the day I thanked the lord
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
Well I kissed her where they sing old fashioned songs
And I kissed her where they hi dee hi dee hi!
I could never sing a tune but the day I learned to croon
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her where the sea is deep and blue
And I kissed her where the rivers all run dry
I kissed her on the lake but the day I got my break
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye
I kissed her where the roses kiss the ground
And I kissed her where the mountains kiss the sky
Well I kissed her in the west but the kiss that I like best
Was the day when I kissed that girl good-bye

Ahab, The Arab
Ahab, The Arab
Composer(s): Ray Stevens
Performer(s): Ray Stevens;; Kinky Friedman; Phil Vassar
Let me tell you about Ahab, The Arab
The sheik of the burning sands!
He had emeralds and rubies just a-drippin' off 'a him
And a ring on every finger of his hand!
He wore a big ol' turban wrapped around his head
And a scimitar by his side
And every evenin', about midnight
He'd jump on his camel named Clyde...
And ride, silently through the night to the sultan's tent
Where he would secretly meet up with Fatima of The Seven Veils
The swingingest number one choice dancer
In The Sultan's whole harem!
'Cause, like him and her had a thing goin', you know
And they'd been carryin' on for some time now behind The Sultan's back!
And you could hear him talk to his camel
As he rode out across the dunes
His voice would cut through the still night desert air,
And he'd say... (imitate Arabic speech)
Which is Arabic for, "Whoa, babies!"
And Clyde'd say... (imitate camel braying)
Well, he brought his camel to a screechin' halt (imitate screech)
In the rear of Fatima's tent
Jumped off Clyde, snuck around the corner
And into the tent he went
There he saw Fatima layin' on a zebra skin rug
With rings on her fingers
And bells on her toes and a bone in her nose, ho ho!
There she was, friends and neighbors, layin' there in all her radiant beauty
Eating on a raisin, and a grape, and an apricot, and a pomegranate
A bowl of chitterlings, two bananas, three Hershey bars
And sipping on an R-O-C-coke-cola, listenin' to her transistor
Watchin' The Grand Ole Opry
And readin' Mad Magazine while she sung "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor?"!
And Ahab walked up to her and he say (imitate Arabic speech)
Which is Arabic for, "Let's twist again like we did last summer, baby!"
And she say, "ha ha ha...crazy, baby!"
('Round and around and around and around
And around and around and around!)
All of a sudden, The Sultan walked in!!
Ahab knew that this was the end!!
Him and Fatima was caught by surprise
And the sultan had fire flashin' out of his eyes!!
Well, The Sultan charged at Ahab
Intending to make a dent
In his head, but he fled with Fatima
And out of the tent they went!
They jumped on Clyde and started to ride
Cuttin' out across the sand!
With The Sultan's whole army in a hot pursuit
On and on they ran!
Well, to make a long story short
They got away, 'cause there weren't no animal alive
What could keep up with Clyde once he got started
'Cause he was the swiftest steed on the whole desert babies!
And they made it across the border
Where he half-hocked all his rubies and emeralds
And he bought 'em a swanky little split-level pad
And lived happi'y ever after!
Yeah, and that's the story 'bout Ahab, The Arab
The sheik of the burnin' sands!
Ahab The Arab, the swingin' sheik of the burnin' sands! ...
