Ride me, ride you
We do anything we wanna do
Speed you, speed me, you're my machine

Hang in, hang on, turn me on

He's my D-d-daytona demon, my machine
He's my Daytona demon
He's my fast lovin' sin soaked heathen
He's my D-d-daytona demon, my machine

Feel good, oh feel free
And I know he always feels like me
He drives fast, drives hard, drives with me

Like a man made machine, he's so mean

Ride...ride...ride...ride
Daytona demon, Daytona demon
Daytona demon...wow

He's my Daytona demon...

Angry Eyes


Angry Eyes
Composer(s): Jim Messina - Kenny Loggins
First release by: Loggins & Messina - 1972



Time, time and again I see you staring down at me
Now, then and again I wonder what it is that you see
with those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes

You want to believe that I am not the same as you
And now I can't conceive, oh Lord, of what it is you're trying to do
with those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes
What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me
with those Angry Eyes

You and I must start to realize
Blindness binds us in a false disguise
Can you see me through those Angry Eyes?

You try to defend that you are not the one to blame
But I'm finding it hard, my friend, when I 'm in the deadly aim
of those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes
What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me
with those Angry Eyes

Dayton, Ohio 1903


Dayton, Ohio 1903
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Originally performed by: Randy Newman
Covered by various other artists



Sing a song of long ago
When things were green and movin' slow
And people'd stop to say hello
Or they'd say "hi" to you
"Would you like to come over for tea
With the missus and me?"
It's a real nice way
To spend the day
In Dayton, Ohio
On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903

Sing a song of long ago
When things could grow
And days flowed quietly
The air was clean and you could see
And folks were nice to you
"Would you like to come over for tea
With the missus and me?"
It's a real nice way
To spend the day
In Dayton, Ohio
On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903

Angry


Angry
Composer(s): Henry Brunies - Jules Cassard - Dudley Mecum
Performer(s): Dudley Mecum's Wolverines
and multiple other artists



True love never does run smooth
At least that's what I'm told
If that is true then our love
Surely must be good as gold
How we battle ev'ry day
And when I want a kiss
I have to start explaining
And it sounds about like this

Dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you
I wouldn't even let you think of leavin'
Don't you know I love you true

Just because I took a look at somebody else
That's no reason you should put poor me on the shelf
Dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you

Don't believe a thing you hear, just wait 'till you see
Then you'll find no cause to show that you're jealous of me
Oh! Angry, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you

Daytime Friends


Daytime Friends
Composer(s): Ben Peters
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers; Ted Hawkins



And he'll tell her - He's working late again
But she knows to well there's something goin' on
She's been neglected - and she needs a friend
So her trembling fingers dial the telephone

And Lord, it hurts her - doin' this again
He's the best friend that her husband ever knew
When she's lonely - he's more than just a friend
He's the one she loans her body to

Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
Hoping no one else discovers
Where they go - What they do
In their secret hideaway

Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
They don't want to hurt the others
So they love - In the nighttime
And shake hands in the light of day

And when it's over - there's no peace of mind
Just a longin' for the way things should have been
And she wonders - Why some men never find
That a woman needs a lover and a friend

Daytime friends and nighttime lovers ...

Änglamark


Änglamark
Composer(s): Evert Taube
Performer(s): Sven Bertil Taube; Lisa Ekdahl; Anders Lundin



Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna

Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm
Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar
Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm
Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar

Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur
Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa
Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur
Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur

Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna

Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm
Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar
Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm
Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar

Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur
Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa
Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur
Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur

Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna

Days That Used To Be


Days That Used To Be
Composer(s): Neil Young
Originally performed by: Neil Young
Covered by: Ad Vanderveen



People say don't rock the boat, let things go their own way
Ideas that once seemed so right, now have gotten hard to say
I wish I could talk to you, you could talk to me
'Cause there very few of us left my friend
From the days that used to be

Seem like such a simple thing to follow one's own dream
But possessions and concession are not often what they seem
They drag you down and load you down in disguise of security
But we never had to make those deals
In the days that used to be

Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are
Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car
Does it get you where you wanna go, with a seven year warranty
Or just another hundred thousand miles away
From days that used to be

Days Of Wine And Roses


Days Of Wine And Roses
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Henry Mancini
Performer(s): Andy Williams



The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a child at play
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before

The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you

(The lonely night discloses) just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you-oo-oo

Badlands


Badlands
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1978



Lights out tonight
trouble in the heartland
Got a head-on collision
smashin' in my guts, man
I'm caught in a cross fire
that I don't understand
But there's one thing I know for sure girl
I don't give a damn
For the same old played out scenes
I don't give a damn
For just the in betweens
Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul
I want control right now
you better listen to me baby
talk about a dream
Try to make it real
you wake up in the night
With a fear so real
spend your life waiting
for a moment that just don't come
Well, don't waste your time waiting

Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
and these badlands start treating us good

Workin' in the fields
till you get your back burned
Workin' 'neath the wheels
till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich
rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight
I wanna find out what I got

Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these

Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
and these badlands start treating us good

mmmmmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm

For the ones who had a notion
a notion deep inside
That it ain't no sin
to be glad you're alive
I wanna find one face
that ain't looking through me
I wanna find one place
I wanna spit in the face of these badlands

Days Like These


Days Like These
Performer(s): Saga



I thought that passed this way again
I feel the changes in my heart
I still have questions that I've asked myself a million times
I know the answers can't be that far behind
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
I know that dawn will take away the distant day
Tomorrow always finds a way
'Cause we're just passing through on our way to another stage
And thoughts that linger will be those of today
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
Thoughts that linger will always be the same
There will never be days like these again
There'll never be days like these again
You know we'll always be the same
There'll never be days like these again
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again

Angkor Wat


Angkor Wat
Composer(s): Jon Anderson - Jonathan Elias - Rick Wakeman
Performer(s): Yes



Out of the brightest tree the moon became the morning sun
And there again reflected on the dreams of everyone
Out of the starlight night the telling of all our lives
And racing faster than the Northwestern World
Starpoint to signal our endlessness
Starpoint to signal this evermore
Starpoint to compass: We look to the North
To return to the centre: Angkor Wat

Daylight Stranger


Daylight Stranger
Composer(s): Jerry Fuller; Gary Puckett
Performer(s): Gary Puckett



(Ah ah ah)

If we meet by chance today, pretend that you don't see me
I love you, but if she knew I know she'd never free me
Long as I am tied to her we care not for the danger
So be discreet and meet me later, daylight stranger

She believes that I go out on real important business
She's so right 'cause every night I taste your tender kisses
That's what happens when a home is filled with pain & anger
So be discreet and meet me later, daylight stranger

For a while just be my lover
With the darkness as our cover
So that she may not discover you

(Ah ah ah, ah ah ah)

Soon enough she'll realize that we were both mistaken
Walk & talk 'cause in my hand, one day I'll soon awaken
Turn the sunlight in your eyes without the thrill of danger
So be discreet and meet me later, daylight stranger

(repeat)
Meet me later, daylight stranger

Angie (The Rolling Stones)


Angie
((German Version: Angie (by Jasmine Bonnin) - 1973))
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists



Oh, Angie, Angie
When will those dark clouds disappear?
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say were satisfied
But, Angie, Angie,
You can't say we never tried

Angie, you're beautiful but ain't it time we say goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those nights we cried

All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie where will it lead us from here?

Oh Angie don't you weep, ah your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie ain't it time we say goobye

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say were satisfied
But, Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried

But Angie, I still love baby
Ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie, they can't say we never tried

Daylight Katy


Daylight Katy
Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot



She walks by the sea where the sea world is
and she waits for the man to come
She lives in town with her high-heeled friends
and she knows it's a long way down
But she doesn't have to get up in the morning with her hair so soft and long

Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home
Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home

She walks to the sea where the seaweed is
where the rust and the dirt runs deep
She lives nine lives in her midnight world while her old man's fast asleep
And she doesn't have to get up in the morning with her hair so soft and long

Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home
Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home

She lives by the sea when the summer wind comes and the sea don't mind at all
She talks to the sea when the sea runs wild and the waves run steep and tall
And she doesn't have to get up in the morning with her hair so soft and long

Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home
Daylight Katy come on
Daylight Katy come on
If you can't follow me down
Daylight Katy, go home

Angie (Jasmine Bonnin)


Angie
((Adapted from: Angie (by The Rolling Stones) - 1973))
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards - Christian Heilburg
Performer(s): Jasmine Bonnin - 1973



Angie, Angie, was hast du aus dir gemacht?
Angie, Angie, wer hat dich dazu gebracht?
Dein Gesicht hast du geschminkt
dass man dich kaum noch erkennt
Und dein Blick sieht müde aus
Angie, Angie, komm’ mit mir
komm mit nach Haus

Angie, du bist noch jung
ein ganzes Leben liegt vor dir
Angie, doch sei nicht dumm
gib was du hast nicht einfach her
Jeder Rockband läufst du nach
und bist stolz auf jede Nacht
die du nicht allein bleibst
Angie, Angie, irgendwann tut dir das leid

Oh, Angie, denk’ daran
dass man so nicht leben kann
ein paar Jahre noch vielleicht
Angie, Angie, doch was hast du dann erreicht?

Jeder Rockband läufst du nach
und bist stolz auf jede Nacht
die du nicht allein bleibst
Angie, du willst deine Freiheit
und du rauchst und trinkst soviel dabei
Und aus Gewohnheit, sagst du niemals nein
Soll das deine Freiheit sein?

Angie, Angie, doch du siehst so müde aus
Angie, Angie, komm’ mit mir
komm’ mit nach Haus

Daylight
Composer(s): Harold Payne; Bobby Womack
Performer(s): Bobby Womack



Well, looks like I'm going again
I can't seem to believe myself
Here I go again here I go again
here I go again listen to me now
It's five o'clock am and the party
is still going strong, there's a
conversation going in the corner
Big Ed is all on the lawn
and the fm music is groovin'
folks getting down getting down
in their stocking feet
sleepy eyes are peeping
from the window across the street

(chorus)
and it looks like daylight's
gonna catch me up again
most people like getting up
when I'm just getting in
oh it's the only only time
it seems to be the only time
when I can unwind

Swore to myself, time and time
and time again that I would give
up the night life and start layin' in
but it ain't easy no no
sayin' no to my friends
'cause the real cause the real
set don't get started till everyone else is in

(chorus)

Anger


Anger
Composer(s): Marvin Gaye - Delta Ashby - Ed Townsend
Performer(s): Marvin Gaye



Up and down my back, my spine, in my brain
It injures me, babe....

Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger, can make you sick, children... oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Rage, there's no room for rage in there
There's no room for rage in here
line up some place to go to be mad
It's a sin to treat your body bad

When anger really gets the best of us
We've really lost our heads
We often say a lof of things, oh darlin'
Wish we'd never said
Oh, reason is beyond control
And the things we do spite
Makes me ashamed
And I mean this, baby, makes me want to the things right

Someday soon I hope and pray like Jesus
I'll reach that wiser age
Hope I will learn I really never never profit
>From things I do in rage

One more time-anger, more ager
When it's flaming hot
Anger burns to the bitter end
Know what i'm talkin' 'bout
When it cools I find out too late
I have lost at love, love, love, dear friend
I said, anger will make you sick
Children, oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul

I ain't gonna let you get the best of me, babe
I'm gonna go somewhere and cool
This is not the way my head's supposed to be, babe
You've got me feelin' like some silly fool
But I know a real nice place where I can go
And feel the way i'm supposed to feel

I don't want to be mad at nobody
I don't want to be feelin' bad
Up and down my back, my spine, in my brain
It injures me, babe

Anger, can make you old, yes it can
I said anger will make you sick, children, oh Jesus
Anger destroys your soul
Anger

Day-In Day-Out


Day-In Day-Out
Composer(s): David Bowie
Originally performed by: David Bowie



Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out

Day-In Oo Oo
Day-Out Oo Oo Oo

She was born in a handbag
love left on a doorstep
What she lacks is a backup
nothing seems to make a dent
Gonna find her some money honey
try to pay her rent
That's the kind of protection everyone is shouting about

Chorus:
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out

Day-In Oo Oo
Day-Out Oo Oo Oo

First thing she learns is she's a citizen,
some things they turn out right
When you're under the USA
something rings a bell and it's all over
She's going out her way
stealing for that one good rush

Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out

She could use a little money
she's hangin' on his arms like a cheap suit
she's got no money, honey
she's the other side
Oh come on little baby
late night, big town, police, shake down

Oo Oo
Oo Oo
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
Oo Oo
Oo Oo
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out

She's got a ticket to nowhere
she's gonna take a train ride
Nobody knows her, or knows her name
she's in the pocket of a home boy
Oo she's gonna take her a shotgun Pow
spin the grail spin the drug
She's gonna make them well aware
she's an angry gal

Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out

Suddenly there's angels everywhere
Angels in a ton of sound
And they shootin' her down
Shootin her with video-drugs-bullets and promises

Angelus (Luis Eduardo Aute)


Angelus
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Desciendan de la Gloria
legiones de arcángeles armados
de cólera divina fieramente resueltos
a expulsarnos del Paraíso
Traspasen sus espadas de fuego
nuestra sed de Conocimiento
fruto creado para la profanación
del mandato de quien los envía
Desaten sus iras, alados ejércitos
sin sexo ni cerebro, cobardes
hermanos de quien osó
Luzbel
imitando al Creador, ser
humano
Ataquen inmaculadamente atacados
por la envidia de no estar hechos
a imagen y semejanza del Amo
como tú
hembra dulce de víboras manzanas
como yo, tu fiel esclavo
Qué si por castigo, compañera
de pecado, debo amarte
con sangre y con dolor
hágase su Voluntad
que aquí en la tierra como en el cielo
de nuevo profanaremos
el arcano de nuestra culpa carnívora
sacralizando la humana pasión
en las cloacas más infectas
del destierro
