At My Window
At My Window
Composer(s): Brian Wilson - Al Jardine
Performer(s): The Beach Boys
Birds fly up
And down spinnin' round
Flyin' all around
From my window
A little brown sparraw came
Flutterin' down
Le moineau est venu
Se poser ma fenjtre
He came to my window
And as I watched him
I found myself reelin' and turnin' around
And the faster I ran
I ran out of breath and I fell to the ground
(Poof)
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
He came to my window
He came to my window
He came to my window
From their eyes
The people must look like miniature toys
Do do do do do
Do do do do do do
Fly away
Fly away
Fly away

Are You With Me Baby
Are You With Me Baby
Composer(s): Billy Burnette - Rafe Van Hoy
Performer(s): Billy Burnette
Life's too short to go too long like this
Forget where you came from or came here with
Let's talk some serious business
Like just one kiss from your sweet lips
Are you with me baby
We're waistin' precous time
Are you with me baby
Then put your little hand in mine
We're burning moonlight baby
Please don't let me down
Are you with me now
Don't wanna make a scene,
Don't wanna cause a big fuss
I got a little feeling 'bout the two of us
My heart's beatin' hard and it's about to bust
Let's leave this party in a cloud of dust?
Are you with me baby
We're waistin' precous time
Are you with me baby
Then put your little hand in mine
We're burning moonlight baby
Please don't let me down
Are you with me now
As far as I can see we got an open road
It can go on forever if we choose to go
It's not a dream if you believe it's so
There's just one thing that I need to know?

Does Your Heart Beat For Me?
Composer(s): Arnold Johnson - Russ Morgan - Mitchell Parish
Performer(s): Russ Morgan
and multiple other artists
Tho` we said goodbye
When the moon was high
Does your heart beat for me
I wonder if I still linger
In your memory
When you hear my name
Is the thrill the same
As it once used to be
When you`re lonesome, my sweetheart
Does your heart beat for me
When you hear my name
Hear my name
Is the thrill the same
Thrill the same
As it once used to be
When you`re lonesome, my sweetheart
Does your heart beat for me

At My Time Of Life
At My Time Of Life
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
Who would have thought
What I would find
At my time of life
Quiet days
And peace of mind
At my time of life
Puffin' my pipe
And watching the smoke rings fly
I'm just doing my best
And as for the rest
Just letting the world go by
Calmer somehow
Than ever before
At my time of life
Happiness now
In finally knowing
Just how it's gonna be
Contented, I
That's the word
Contented, as you can see
And at my time of life
That's good enough for me
Contented, I
That's the word
Contented, as you can see
And at my time of life
That's good enough
At my time of life
Quite good enough
At my time of life
That's good enough for me

Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight?
Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight?

Composer(s): Marty Bloom - Ernest Breuer - Billy Rose
Performer(s): Lonnie Donegan - 1958
and multiple other artists
Oh me oh my oh you
Whatever shall I do?
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
I'd give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question
Is it yes or is it no?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Here comes a blushing bride
The groom is by her side
Up to the altar, just as steady as Gibraltar
The groom has got the ring
And it's such a pretty thing
But as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to sing
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Now the nation rise as one
To send their wanted son
Up to the White House, yes, the nation's only White House
To voice their discontent
Unto the Pres-I-dent
The bonny burning question, What has swept this continent?
If tin whistles are made of tin, what do they make fog horns out of?
(Boom! Boom!)
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch it on your tonsils, can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
On the bedpost overnight
(Hello there, I love you and the one who holds you tight!)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night!
On the bedpost overnight
(A dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime!)
He'd sing another chorus but he hasn't got the time!
On the bedpost overnight, yeah!

Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door door door
Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
Woke up this morning with a feeling of despair lookin for my baby and she wasn't there
Heard someone knocking and much to my surprise
There stood my baby looking in my eyes
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
If you got a little mama and ya want to keep her neat

Same thing will happen like it did before
She'll come knock, knock, knocking atmy door

She'll come knock, knock, knocking atmy door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door door door
Crazy little mama come knocking, knocking at my front door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
If you got a little mama and ya want to keep her neat

She'll come knock, knock, knocking atmy door
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before
Yi yi yi yi yi yi
Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking, just like she did before

Does The Spearmint Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight?
Composer(s): Marty Bloom - Ernest Breur - Billy Rose
Performer(s): Ernest Hare & Billy Jones
and multiple other artists
Oh me, oh my, oh you, I don't know what to do
Hallelujah, the question is peculiar
It's got me on the go, I'd give a lot of dough
If someone here would tell me, is it yes or is it no?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If you chew it in the morning, will it be too hard to bite?
Can't you see I'm going crazy, won't somebody put me right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
The nation rose as one and sent its favourite son
To the White House, this mighty country's lighthouse
Before the President, he said that "I've been sent
To solve the burning question that involves the continenet"
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Would you use it on your collar when your button's not in sight?
Put your hand beneath your feet and you will find it there alright
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
If your teacher tells you not to chew it, swallow it for spite
Could you grab it with your tonsils and then swing it left and right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Here comes a blushing bride, the groom right by her side
To the altar, as steady as Gibraltar
The bridegroom has the ring, it's such a pretty thing
He puts it on her finger and the choir begins to sing
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Always place it on your napkin if you want to be polite
Could you get a job as typist if you couldn't do it right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Well, it'd make a fellow shut up when he's trying to recite
Would you give it to your parrot if he isn't cursing right?
Does the spearmint lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?

At Long Last Love
At Long Last Love
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance/First release by: Clifton Webb/Larry Clinton & His Orch. - 1938
Covered by multiple other artists
I'm so in love, and though it gives me joy intense
I can't decipher, if I'm a lifer
Or if it's just a first offense
I'm so in love, I've no sense of values at all
Is this a playtime affair of Maytime
Or is it a windfall?
Is it an earthquake or simply a shock?
Is it the good turtle soup or merely the mock?
Is it a cocktail this feeling of joy
Or is what I feel the real McCoy?
Is it for all time, or simply a lark?
Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?
Is it a fancy not worth thinking of
Or is it at long last love?

Does My Ring Hurt Your Finger?
Does My Ring Hurt Your Finger?
Composer(s): Jan Crutchfield
First recording/First release by: Country Charley Pride - 1967
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?
When I bought it for you, darlin'
It seemed to be just right
Should I take it to the jeweller
So it won't fit so tight?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?
Did you enjoy yourself last night, dear?
How was the show?
You know that I don't mind it, when you go
I understand some times we all need time alone
But why do you always leave your ring at home?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When your away from me?
I'm so proud when you wear it
For all the world to see
Should I take it to the jeweller
So it won't fit so tight?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?
Does my ring hurt your finger
When you go out at night?

At Last! I'm In First With You
At Last! I'm In First With You
Composer(s): Country Washburne
Performer(s): Spike Jones
Oh I'm first at last, I've always been behind before
You never used to have me on your mind before
I thought I'd always be just a lonely little me
But at last I'm first with you
Well I guess I must have waited `bout a hundred years
And I was aggravated by a thousand fears
I really never felt that your little heart would melt
But at last I'm first with you
Well I was sorta scared that you wouldn't be prepared
That you weren't through runnin' round
Just imagine my surprise when I looked into your eyes
And you promised me that we would settle down
And though we're over newly-wed as spooners go
Way out in some suburban honeymooners' glow
Where I can hold you tight every mornin', noon and night
`Cos at last I'm first with you
And though we're over newly-wed as spooners go
Way out in some suburban honeymooners' glow
Where I can hold you tight every mornin', noon and night
`Cos at last I'm first with you
At last I'm first
I'm first at last
At last I'm first with you

Does It Really Happen?
Does It Really Happen?
Composer(s): Geoffrey Downes - Trevor Horn - Steve Howe - Chris Squire - Alan White
Performer(s): Yes
That's what you say
Does it really happen to you
Does that explain
This is the season for this display
To take a look
In time to move together
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything
Could this be true
Does it ever happen to you
And can you prove
That wheels go 'round in reason
You take a step
In time
To move together
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything
You walk, the way
You take, the path
To be, assured
You make, a graph
The scale, you use
Is all, on black
Be brave, the weight
Will make, the heat
There is, no way
To take-it back
Time is the measure before it's begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for son and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything

You ask me if I love you
Do I? Don't I?

I swear by stars above you...
Do I? Don't I?
You're not convinced?

Does an elephant love peanuts?

His head's down in a sandpile?
Does a hotdog love a roll?
Does a bumblebee love honey?

When it comes to table manners
Does a monkey love bananas?
If he does, then, baby, I love you
Does a horsefly love the horses?
Does he?
Does a squirrel love a nut?
Does a bold gorilla thrill a
Shy romantic miss gorilla?
Does a hobo love a mutt?
Does a tomcat love a back fence?
Does he?
Does a cow just love to moo?
Does a rooster's cock-a-doodle
Make a hen go off her noodle?
If he does, then baby, I love you
Do mosquitos love a fat man?
Do they?
Does a piggy love to squeal?
Does a goose love to meander
When she's found a proper gander?
Has an eel got sex appeal?
Does a big giraffe love necking?
Does he?
Does a dove just love to coo?
Does a herring feel quite tickled
Just as soon as he gets pickled?
If he does, then baby, I love you!

First performance by: Glenn Miller and His Orch. - 1942
Covered by multiple other artists
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Ohh yeah yeah
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh yeah yeah
You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last
I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh yeah yeah
You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

Doe Iets
Doe Iets
((Adapted from: Show Me (Julie Andrews & John Michael King) - 1956))
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Frederick Loewe - Seth Gaaikema
Performer(s): Margriet de Groot & Richard Prince
Freddy:
Jij bent een roos, die staat te geuren
vol van kleuren
ongerept en pril...
Jij bent het fluiten van een merel
En op de wereld is geen mooier...
Eliza:
Stil!
Stil! Stil! Stil! Wees in Godsnaam stil!
Ik hoor aldoor maar woorden
van hem en van jou!
Begrijp je dan niets van een vrouw?
Altijd maar weer
bloemen in knop
Ach, hou toch op!
Doe iets!
Altijd opnieuw
een merel die fluit
Ach! Schei toch uit!
Doe iets!
Fluiten soms de merels zo maar midden in de nacht?
Je hebt veel te lang met alles gewacht
Al dat mooie praten is zo vrees'lijk ouderwets
Er is geen tijd voor geklets!
Is dan je mond
alleen voor de show?
Sta daar niet zo!
Doe iets! Doe iets!
Denk nou maar niet, dat je me ooit
met praten en zingen ontdooit
nu of nooit!
Altijd die lach
altijd dat lied!
Wil je dan niet?
Doe iets!
Zet nou niet weer
zo'n zonnig gezicht
En geen gedicht!!
Doe iets!
Heb je dan geen lippen die verlangen naar een kus?
We zijn nu alleen, wat aarzel je dus?
Mag ik soms es weten, wat je eig'lijk van me wil!
Stil, of ik geef nog een gil!
Zeg niet hoeveel
zeg niet waarom!
Kijk niet zo dom!
Doe iets! Doe iets!
Wacht niet te lang
Straks is opeens m'n voorhoofd in rimpels geplooid
Nu of nooit!

Stop And Smell The Roses
Composer(s): Doc Severinsen - Mac Davis
Performer(s): Mac Davis
and multiple other artists
Hey Mister
Where you going in such a hurry
Don't you think it's time you realized
There's a whole lot more to life than work and worry
The sweetest things in life are free
And there right before your eyes
You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way
Before you went to work this morning in the city
Did you spent some time with your family
Did you kiss your wife and tell her that she's pretty
Did you take your children to your breast and love them tenderly
You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way
Did you ever take a walk through the forest
Stop and dream a while among the trees
Well you can look up through the leaves right straight to heaven
You can almost hear the voice of God
In each any every breeze
You got to Stop and Smell the Roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the Roses along the way
You got to Stop and Smell the roses
You've got to count your many blessings everyday
You're gonna find your way to heaven is a rough and rocky road
If you don't Stop and Smell the roses along the way

Hello?
Hiya honey
It's me I want to see the doctor today
"Cos ever since you've been gone
I've had a pain deep down inside
He said there's nothing really wrong with me
I'm just missing my man, so honey
Please come on home as soon as you can
Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He prescribed a potion full of warm emotion every day
A lovin' spoonful to be taken
It's the only way to stop this empty
Heart of mine from breakin
Won't get better till you're back again he told me
Doctor's orders need your loving arms to hold me
Darling now I know there ain't no doubt about it
I'm so hooked on your love I can't live without it
You're away but please don't treat me like a stranger
Doctor's orders say one kiss from you and I am out of danger
Please say you understand how I feel honey
I know you've got a lot of things on your mind
Oh but I'm missing you so bad
Please oh please come on home
Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He prescribed a potion full of warm emotion
Won't get better till you're back again he told me

At A Perfume Counter
Composer(s): Joe Burke - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): The Dorsey Brothers
Delightful was the day
In gay Paris
I gave my heart away
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix
The flowers set an air
In gay Paris
Encouraged me to care
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix
The conversation was blended
With romance in May
But your vacation soon ended
And you went away
If you remember this
Come back to me
And say it with a kiss
Oui, oui, Chérie
At a perfume counter
On the Rue de la Paix
