Manic Depression
Manic Depression
Originally performed by: Jimi Hendrix
Performer(s): The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Manic Depression's touching my soul
I know what I want
but I just don't know how to go about getting it
Feeling, sweet feeling
drops from my finger, fingers
Manic Depression's captured my soul
Woman so willing the sweet cause in vain
you make love
you break love
it's-a all the same when it's...
when it's over
Music sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic Depression's a frustrating mess
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down
Really ain't no use me hanging around
Oh, I gotta see you

21st Century Schizoid Man
21st Century Schizoid Man
Composer(s): Robert Fripp
Performer(s): King Crimson
Cat's foot iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door
Twenty first century schizoid man
Blood rack barbed wire
Polititians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Twenty first century schizoid man
Death seed blind man's greed
Poets' starving children bleed
Nothing he's got he really needs
Twenty first century schizoid man

Maniac
Maniac
Composer(s): Dennis Matkosky; Michael Sembello
Originally performed by: Michael Sembello
Just a small town girl on a saturday night
lookin' for the fight of her life
In the real-time world no one sees her at all
they all say she's crazy
Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing woman into life
She has danced into the danger zone, when a dancer becomes a dance
It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see
It's a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can't hold it
You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by
It's a push of the world, but there's always a chance
If the hunger stays the night
There's a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat
Never stopping with her head against the wind
She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire
On a wire between will and what will be
She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

21st Century Sha La La La Girl
21st Century Sha La La La Girl
Composer(s): Joe Elliott; Phil Collen; Rick Savage
Performer(s): Def Leppard
24 hours of every day
I'd walk on glass just to hear you say
'Gettin' it on is like a drug to me
I want you baby, can't you see?'
I'm crashed, I'm crushed, and I'm stuck on you
I'd do anything that you want me to
I'd crawl on my knees just to get to you
I close my eyes and girl it's true
On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
C'mon be my
21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious
21st century babe, you got solar fire
21st century girl, sweet romancer, cosmic dancer
21st century sha la la la girl
Kiss this, you're blowin' my mind
Never say never, but I'm takin' my time
Girl to the world from the a to the z
I fall for you so easily
Catch my breath 'cause I know too well
That I just can't control myself
Realize we synchronize
It's only when I close my eyes
On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
C'mon be my
21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious
21st century babe, you got solar fire
21st century girl, sweet romancer, cosmic dancer
21st century, she's high on flying
Flying, flying
You take me up, you set me free
No time to breathe, just zero g
High, still flying, no gravity
She's flying
On a psychadelic space machine, galactic sugar high
Like a caffeinated satellite goin' way past 99
C'mon be my
21st century girl, all outrageous, quite contagious
21st century babe, you got solar fire
21st century girl, sweet romancer, cosmic dancer
21st century, high on flying
21st century, sha la la la girl
She's a 21st century, sha la la la girl
21st century, sha la la la girl
She's a 21st century sha la la la girl

Mani Bucate
Mani Bucate
Composer(s): Sergio Endrigo
Originally performed by: Sergio Endrigo
Non hai saputo
tenerti niente
neanche un sorriso sincero
e avevi il mondo
il mondo intero
nelle tue mani
Tutto hai perduto
anche l'amore
buttato via
dalle tue mani
mani bucate
Non hai saputo
tenerti niente
neanche un amico sincero
Avevi tanto
e hai sempre dato
tutto a nessuno
Tutto hai perduto
anche il mio cuore
buttato via
dalle tue mani
mani bucate
Ora lo sai
nessuno torna indietro
e io non sono più io
E' inutile che pensi a me
Adesso piangi
adesso chiedi
un po' di amore sincero
Un po' d'amore
per il tuo cuore
solo e malato
Non c'e' nessuno
che ti dia un fiore
ne' una mano
per le tue mani
mani bucate
Non c'e' nessuno
che ti dia un fiore
ne' una mano
per le tue mani
mani bucate
Non c'e' nessuno
che ti dia un fiore
ne' una mano
per le tue mani

22 Acacia Avenue
22 Acacia Avenue
Composer(s): Steve Harris; Smith
Performer(s): Iron Maiden
If you're feeling down depressed and lonely
I know a place where we can go
22 Acacia Avenue meet a lady that I know
So if you're looking for a good time
And you're prepared to pay the price
Fifteen quid is all she asks for
Everybody's got their vice
If you're waiting for a long time for the rest to do their piece
You can tell her that you know me and you might even get it free
So any time you're down the East End don't you hesitate to go
You can take my honest word for it she'll teach you more than you can know
Charlotte can't you get out from all this madness
Can't you see it only brings you sadness
When you entertain your men don't know the risk of getting disease
Some day when you're reaching the age of forty
I bet you'll regret the days when you were laying
Nobody then will want to know
You won't have any beautiful wares to show any more
22, the avenue that's the place where we all go
You will find it's warm inside the red light's burning bright tonight
Charlotte isn't it time you stopped this mad life
Don't you ever think about the bad times
Why do you have to live this way
Do you enjoy your lay or is it the pay
Sometimes when your strolling down the avenue
The way you walk it make men think of having you
When you're walking down the street
Everybody stops and turns to stare at you
Beat her mistreat her do anything that you please
Bite her excite her make her get down on her knees
Abuse her misuse her she can take all that you've got
Caress her molest her she always does what you want
You're running away don't you know what you're doing
Can't you see it'll lead you to ruin
Charlotte you've taken your life and you've thrown it away
You believe that because what you're earning
Your life's good don't you know that you're hurting
All the people that love you don't cast them aside
All the men that are constantly drooling
It's no life for you stop all that screwing
You're packing your bags and you're coming with me

Manhattan Downbeat
Manhattan Downbeat
Composer(s): Harry Warren; Ira Gershwin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
Tempo, you know that good old tempo
Just give me that Manhattan Downbeat
That beats a tempo of its own
You've got to shout, "This is it!"
The day you visit
The jumpinest town has ever been known
Keep your Paree and London town beat
Up with your 'bockers stands alone
Drive up any avenue, swing down any street
No beat has Manhattan Downbeat beat!
Manhattan has a beat that's all its own
Manhattan has a beat to call its own
So, Mister Leader, when you give the band the downbeat
A one, two, three
And give 'em that Manhattan Downbeat
That beats a tempo of its own;
You've got to shout, "This is it!"
The day you visit
The jumpinest town has ever been known
Keep your Paree and London town beat
Up with your 'bockers stands alone
Drive up any avenue, swing down any street
No beat has Manhattan Downbeat
No beat has Manhattan Downbeat
No beat has Manhattan Downbeat beat!

I'm in love with the girl who lives at
Two twenty-one East Maple
And ev'ry time she comes my way
My poor heart seems to say

And I won't rest until she marries me
Dum de dum dum

So I knocked at the door of the pretty little house at
Two twenty-one East Maple

Now I'm as happy as I can be
'Cause I'm in love with the girl who lives at
Two twenty-one East Maple
And I won't rest until she marries me
Dum de dum dum

Her eyes are baby blue
And she drives a Jaguar too
If she'd just be my girl
It'd be a wonderful world for me
'Cause I'm in love with the girl who lives at
Two twenty-one East Maple
And I won't rest until she marries...

She just said she'd marry me

Manhattan
Manhattan
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald
and various other artists
Summer journeys to Niag'ra
And to other places aggra
Vate all our cares
We'll save our fares!
I've a cozy little flat in
What is known as old Manhattan
We'll settle down
Right here in town!
We'll have Manhattan
The Bronx and Staten
Island too
It's lovely going through
The zoo!
It's very fancy
On old Delancey
Street you know
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro
And tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street
In July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by
The great big city's a wonderous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy!
We'll go to Yonkers
Where true love conquers
In the wilds
And starve together dear, in Child's
We'll go to Coney
And eat baloney on a roll
In Central Park we'll stroll
Where our first kiss we stole
Soul to soul
And "My Fair Lady"
Is a terrific show they say
We both may see it close
Some day
The city's glamour can never spoil
The dreams of a boy and goil
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy!

23
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Tengo 23 rostros para verte
tengo 23 manos que te tocan
tengo 23 sueños reunidos
en fila india
Tengo 23 años de distancia
tengo 23 años de tamaño
tengo 23 años de momentos
de melodías y reloj
Ahora tengo 23 caracoles
23 buenos pretextos
para hacerte compañía
23 caminatas
sin saber dónde ir
23 voces mías
diciendo "vivo cerca"
23 alegrías
nuestra complicidad
23 llaves verdes
abriéndonos la puerta
-y mi casa que queda
en la calle 23
tiene 23 siglos
distintos que vivir-
23 divisiones
de estrellas desfilando
23 sensaciones
rompiendo las ventanas
23 pasadizos
abiertos al delirio
23 mil pasiones
en una sola cama
23 espejismos
23 agonías
23 deserciones
23 veces mía
(si es posible
por supuesto
si es posible)
Las cábalas dirán
horrores de mi número
pero de pronto el 23 se me antoja de suerte
para quien lleva 23 tiempos sobre sí
(quien sabe si es acaso
mi número de muerte)
23 es pedazos
de piedras del amor
23 es el polvo
que hay en las ventanas
23 un cristal bien ahumado
para mirar al sol
23 es un rostro
al espejo una mañana
23 sale el día
23 va la noche
23

Memories of growing up
And working hard
Our childhood passed us by
Mom and dad
They sacrificed their wants and needs
So we could reach the light
Although the times were tough for us
We knew they both worked hard
They gave us all their hearts could give
And still made room for love
We’re all united
And standing strong
And still today
We’re one big family
(chorus)
2300 jackson street
Always home
2300 jackson street
Always home
Oooooo
In harmony, together we’ll
Join hands and sing
Our love across the land
Remember we always said, if we got a chance
We’ll plan our work
And work our master plan
Although the road of life is tough
It has it’s ups and downs
We are the one and all
If we stay together
We can conquer all
We are united
And standing strong
And still today
We’re one big family
Oooooooh
(chorus)
Mother and father
They raised us to be
The best that we could be
Now the stage is set
The curtain’s up
The crowd applauds your name
Then give a smile
Lets do you’re best
No matter how far we go

Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire
In my house of straw, I have so much more
Pie from the pidgeon, I fix in the kitchen

Now if you like the way I cook
And if you like the way I look
Then step inside my shady nook
And you'll find mangos and papayas
Anything your heart desires
Mangos, papayas, chestnuts from the fire
The food is so good you will wanna stay
Eat up and drink up
And maybe you'll
Think of the day
When we say, preacher man, okay
(Okay)

Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan
Chaque soir tu vas chanter
Pourtant tu n'es pas vraiment loin de moi
Je n'suis pas tout à fait abandonnée
Si je m'ennuie je peux retrouver ta voix
J'écoute un disque de toi
Ça fait 2'35 de bonheur
Et ça me donne quand tu n'es pas là
Un petit peu de joie dans le cœur
Je peux m'imaginer
Que je fais tout ce que je veux de toi
Je te ferai dire ce qu'il me plaît
Et tu me dis 100 fois :
"Oh ! Je n'aime que toi".
Le disque est un peu rayé
Je l'ai fait jouer tant et tant de fois
Les paroles se sont effacées
Mais je devine encore ta voix
{voix homme:}
Chaque soir, je peux chanter
Pourtant je ne suis pas vraiment loin de toi
Tu n'es pas tout à fait abandonnée
Et tu sais que je n'aime que toi

Et tu me dis 100 fois :
"Oh ! Je n'aime que toi".
J'écoute un disque de toi
Ça fait 2'35 de bonheur
Et ça me donne quand tu n'es pas là
Un tout petit peu de joie dans le cœur
Un p'tit peu de joie dans le cœur
{voix homme:}
Chaque soir, je veux chanter
Pourtant je ne suis pas vraiment loin de toi
Tu n'es pas tout à fait abandonnée
Et tu sais bien que je n'aime que toi
Un p'tit peu de joie dans le cœur

Petite liane tu danses au gré du vent
Moi le macaque je te suis en rêvant
J'aimerais mordre dans les jolies mangos
Qu'tu balances là-haut
Petite liane tu danses sur le temps
Et tu te bouges comme un petit serpent
J'aimerais mordre dans les noix de coco
Qu'tu balances là-haut
En boire le lait chaud
Mango joli mango
Je t'avale fruit tropical
Mon joli mango
J'adore la saveur végétale
De ta peau
Petite liane tu danses au gré du vent
Moi le macaque je vais d'arrière en avant
J'aimerais mordre dans les jolies mangos
Grimper tout là-haut, là-haut, tout là-haut
Mango joli mango
Je t'avale fruit tropical
Mon joli mango
J'adore la saveur végétale
De ta peau
Petite liane tu n'aimes pas les ouragans
Mais moi le macaque, j'suis pas orang-outang
Laisse-moi mordre dans les jolies mangos
Qu'tu balances là-haut, là-haut, tout là-haut
Mango joli mango
Je t'avale fruit tropical
Mon joli mango
J'adore la saveur végétale
Des fibres de ta peau
J'veux grimper là-haut
Grimper tout là-haut, là-haut

24 Green Street
24 Green Street
Composer(s): John Fischer
Performer(s): Peter, Paul & Mary
The paint is old and peeling
The shutters show some cracks
There's a heavy limb on the apple tree
That's got to be cut back
There's some water in the cellar
A little sagging in the floor
But this house has weathered many storms
It will weather many more
'Cause I scraped away the peeling paint
And found the wood was good and strong
And I found a firm foundation
Had been there all along
There's nothing here that a little work
And time can't heal
'Cause everything underneath is real
Nerves are frayed and ragged
Patience is wearing thin
Words were said in fits of rage
That never should have been
We bruised each other badly
Lost respect along the way
But there's too much here worth saving
To throw it all away
Can't we lay aside our fear and pride
And find the good within
All that we have shared before
Can be restored again
There's nothing here that a little work
And time can't heal
'Cause everything underneath is real

Mangiafuoco
Composer(s): Edoardo Bennato
Performer(s): Edoardo Bennato
Non si scherza, non è un gioco
sta arrivando Mangiafuoco
lui comanda e muove i fili
fa ballare i burattini
State attenti tutti quanti
non fa tanti complimenti
chi non balla, o balla male
lui lo manda all'ospedale
Ma se scopre che tu i fili non ce l'hai
se si accorge che tu il ballo non lo fai
allora sono guai - e te ne accorgerai
attento a quel che fai - attento ragazzo
che chiama i suoi gendarmi
e ti dichiara pazzo!...
C'è un gran ballo, questa sera
ed ognuno ha la bandiera
marionette, commedianti
balleranno tutti quanti
Tutti i capi di partito
e su in alto Mangiafuoco
Mangiafuoco fa le scelte
muove i fili e si diverte
Ma se scopre....ecc.
C'è una danza molto bella
tra Arlecchino e Pulcinella
si riempiono di calci
si spaccano le ossa
Mangiafuoco sta alla cassa
Mangiafuoco fa i biglietti
tiene i prezzi molto alti
non c'è altro concorrente
chi ci prova se ne pente!...

Performer(s): France Gall
Tu étais encore dans mes bras hier
Aujourd'hui t'es dans mon sac à bandoulière
C'est en été, qu'on s'est connu
On s'embrassait sous les étoiles
Du feu d'artifice
Que j'aimais tes yeux couleur azur
Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus
De nos amours, de nos délices
Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Souviens-toi juste avant notre rupture
Je te tenais contre moi grandeur nature
Les pieds dans l'eau, à demi nus
On pêchait les petits poissons en s'offrant des réglisses
Tu avais un joli teint de métisse
Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus
De nos amours, de nos délices
Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Mais au mois d'août on est un peu fous
Tous les baigneur font les fous
C'est tous les jours dimanche, on fait la planche
On avait les cheveux couleur maïs
Mais je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus
De nos amours, de nos délices
Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
Je pleure aujourd'hui devant la photo
Je nous revois on s'aimait en pédalo
On s'est connus, perdus de vue
Je vois déjà sur le papier que nos amours jaunissent
Je n'vois plus tes yeux couleur azur
Et je suis seule à présent il ne reste plus
De nos amours, de nos délices
Rien qu'une photo en 24/36
