Brillantin' Brutal'
Brillantin' Brutal'
Composer(s): Falco; Robert Ponger
Performer(s): Falco
We are talking ‘bout inside outside
Zeichen der Zeit verschont uns bloß
Wo wir sind ist vorne, sind wir hinten
dann ist hinten vorne, schonungslos
Und was hier jeder weiß, dazu ist es immer noch zu heiß
No plastic money an der Bar, was seh ich oh lala - wunderbar
Nehmen sie hoch das Bein, treten sie ein
Unser Tanz, er muß der nächste sein
Play again, Sam, mach’s nochmal
Wir tanzen wieder Brillantin’ Brutal’
Still talking ‘bout software, hardware
Going nowhere hatten wir doch schon
Heiß von Pelz umkleidet, jeder Herz erleidet Schmerz
Ist das der Liebe Lohn
Und was hier jeder weiß, Lust und Luxus nehmen ihren Preis
Accept no credit cards an der Bar, was seh ich oh lala - wunderbar
Nehmen sie hoch das Bein, treten sie ein
Unser Tanz, er muß der nächste sein
Play again, Sam, mach’s nochmal
Willst du der Schüsse hall im Club Fatal
Get it up, don’t give it up
Ich seh deutlich einen neuen Fall
Get it up, don’t give it up
Im Fall der Fälle Brillantin’ Brutal’
Ancora coca co - ancora cora coca - ancora coca co - coca
Ancora coca co - ancora cora coca - What’s the last word they said, man?
allright
Hoch das Bein ...
Play again - C’mon Sam
Let us hear that tune
do it again
play
Brutal’
Brutal’

Let Us Take You For A Ride
Let Us Take You For A Ride
Composer(s): Myers - Cass
Performer(s): Cliff Richard & The Michael Sammes Singers
Cliff:
The bush upon the rotor pump
Is pushed into the floater sump
It's wearing out the grunion teeth
By bearing on the cog beneath
Which means in terms of tension swings
The seams of your suspension springs
In cyclic thirds, are set apart
In very simple words, dear ladies
Your car won't start
All:
So we're making this offer
Ride with us, come ride with us
Through the countryside with us
For our bus has every comfort inside
We are pleading
Please let us take you for a ride
Cliff:
To try to wrench the gyro sphere
Without a bench would take all year
Don't risk it like this on the road
The brisket feed light might explode
Cyril, Steve & Ed:
The ball valve's past the hydro trend
There's something nasty round the bend
The loafer tank is running slow
All:
To put it very frankly
Ladies, your car won't go
So ride with us
Come ride with us
Better be alive with us
Here's an offer
That is quite bona fide
We are pleading
Please let us take you for a ride
Cliff:
You know I wouldn't be surprised
That gasket hood looks pulverised
The shock recoil is now reversed
At first you’d boil and then you’d burst
Compression seep will soon distend
The leak that leaks in your big end
The lousy coke has got a hitch
Around the choke adjustment switch
Your piston spout is dynamite
In cutting out the parking light
And, from its shake, your outside brake
Is needing a new drum!
All:
In fact make no mistake
You've really had it chum
Cliff: (with others singing different words at the same time)
So ride with us
Come ride with us
You’ll be satisfied with us
Past the forest
And the riverside
Take a tour with us
That's really nation-wide
For as guys we're really qualified
There's no need to look terrified
For when you have tried
You will say - wide-eyed!
We are just what the doctor specified
We are pleading, please let us take you for a
Ride with us, ride with us…
…Please let us take you for a ride!

Brighton Rock (Queen)
Brighton Rock
Composer(s): Brian May
Performer(s): Queen; Fastbacks
Happy little day Jimmy went away
Met his little Jenny on a public holiday
A happy pair they made so decorously laid
'Neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade
It's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air
I'll weave my spell
Jenny will you stay tarry with me pray
Nothing 'ere need come between us
Tell me love what do you say?
Oh no I must away to my mum in disarray
If my mother should discover how I spent my holiday
It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air
I'll say farewell
Oh rock of ages do not crumble
Love is breathing still
Oh lady moon shine down
A little people magic if you will
Jenny pines away writes a letter ev'ry day
We must ever be together
Nothing can my love erase
Oh no I'm compromised
I must apologize if my lady should discover
How I spent my holidays

Brighton Rock
Composer(s): Elastica; Justine Frischmann
Performer(s): Elastica
We were sauced right there on Brighton beach
You a goth and I was such a peach
I sought to be the best at it
PC Plod he still arrested it
We're getting over it
We're sweating over it
That makes you happy
I'm happy too
You're game in spite of everything
and then she'll be some things
Your name carved on my Brighton rock
My name can be your mental block
We're getting over it
We're sweating over it
That makes you happy
I'm happy too

Brighton Hill
Brighton Hill
Composer(s): Jackie DeShannon; Jimmy Holiday; Randy Myers
Performer(s): Jackie DeShannon
Brighton Hill, where the sky changes its color
Hopes are high, there's no other place I'd rather be
Find your dream by a tree out in the meadow
Where the flowers are yellow, life is what it seems
Brighton Hill is a feelin' within me
Anybody goin' that way?
Brighton Hill is a friend & will be
Till my dying day
Till my dying day
I've got a lot of livin' to do
I've got a lot of livin' to do
Brighton Hill, with its green fields of clover
That's where kindness reigns over everything around
& livin' good on a bicycle Sunday
You can have such a fun day up on Brighton Hill
Brighton Hill is a feelin' within me
Anybody goin' that way?
Brighton Hill is a friend & will be
Till my dying day
Anybody goin' that way?
Brighton Hill, a feelin' within me
Anybody goin' that way? ...

Let There Be Music
Let There Be Music
Composer(s): Johanna Hall - Larry Hoppen
Performer(s): Orleans
When the world was in trouble
and it looked like there was hell to pay
Fire, Fire everywhere!
and the news got worse each day
Well, people really wondered
just how long they could hold out
God looked down from heaven above
and He began to shout
Let there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to have some fun
It's so hard to keep on smilin'
when people try to make you frown
But, we're all in this together
So why run one another down
You know we can't expect our problems
to grow wings and fly away
So fight the fight just as hard as you can
when it's time for you to play
Let there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to have some fun
Let there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to
Everybody's got to have some fun
Let there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to have some fun

Brightest
Brightest
Composer(s): Aaron Marsh
Performer(s): Copeland
If you find yourself here on my side of town
I pray that you’d come to my door
And talk to me like you don’t know what we ever fought about
Because I don’t remember anymore
I just know that she warms my heart
And knows what all my imperfections are
And she said that I was the brightest little firefly in her jar
And I just know that she warms my heart
And knows what all my imperfections are
And she said that I was the brightest little firefly in her jar

Let There Be More Light
Let There Be More Light
Composer(s): Roger Waters
First release by: Pink Floyd - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
Far far far away way
people heard him say say
I will find a way way
there will come a day day
something will be done
Then at last the mighty ship
descending at a point of flame
made contact with the human race at no time
Now now now is the time time
time to be be be aware
Not as far the solar bear
in human role revealed to him
a living soul of heavenward forever
Sunlight, something in my eye
something in the sky
waiting there for me
The antelope grows hurling back
the servicemen would like to sigh
the memory wentflowing rounds
as Lucy in the sky
Oh oh did you ever know
no never ever will they ascend
Summoning in his cosmic powers
and flowing slightly from his toes
psychedelic nations fly

Brighter Day
Composer(s): Roger Steen
Performer(s): The Tubes
Come on baby, I'm in love with you
I can't get it off my mind
I've been thinking I've been dreamin'
'Bout this heart of mine
In a day we'll know, oh we'll know, yes we'll know
'Bout a heart that's strong
and a mind that is wrong
Take my hand and see
all the things you can be
doodn doo doo doo doodn doo doodn doo
doodn doo doo doo
Come on baby I'm in love with you
I can't get it off my mind
Mind's been foggy since I first spied that baby
I can't get it off my mind
First the sun will shine
see how bright the day
Then the rains will come
wash away, wash away
All the blues will go
oh we'll know, yes we'll know
doodn doo doo doo doodn doo doodn doo
doodn doo doo doo
Brighter day
Come on baby

Bright White
Bright White
Composer(s): Shawn Phillips
Performer(s): Shawn Phillips
Now I told you a long time ago
that I'd hold you
never let you go behind me
anywhere I might flow
And I know you believe in me
And I hope you are seeing my dream
A whole lot of people in this world
Just running around
And it's a long way in the face of fear
and there's a lot of men left without any tears anymore
and money is the name in the game of fame
but the music don't come out quite the same anymore
It's all about a bright white light
shining through your mind and guiding your way
Mama put your arms around me
fill me with your joy and rock me all night
I told you a long time ago
that I'd hold you
never let you go behind me
anywhere I might flow
And I'll hold you in winter and spring
and behold you in everything I sing
Being in your arms is just like coming home
And it's a long way in the face of fear
and there's a lot of men left without any tears anymore
and money is the name in the game of fame
but the music don't come out quite the same anymore
It's all about a bright white light
shining through your mind and guiding your way
Mama put your arms around me
fill me with your joy and rock me all night

Let The Worry Bird Worry For You
Let The Worry Bird Worry For You
Composer(s): Leo Robin - Jule Styne
Performer(s): Nellie Lutcher & Her Rhythm
Everyone has his share of care and woe
Even in Lovers Lane there’s rain and snow
We all have to pay the piper
So why be a gloomy griper
Forget regret, don’t let it get you low, no
Let the worry bird worry for you
Let the worry bird fuss and stew
He’s a wonderful pet
And when you get the jitters, he twitters
Let the worry bird worry his head
Have the time of your life instead
What’s a tumble or two
As long as you can keep well, sleep well
Every cloud is silver-lined, bear that in mind
When old man trouble gets tough
And the going gets rough
Let the worry bird worry for you
It’s remarkable what he’ll do
He’ll consider it fun to be your understudy
So buddy, why should you be blue?
Let the worry bird sing the blues for you

Baby, baby, you & I will be seein'...
Bright shiny colors so strange and new

Bright shiny colors run through my head
(Sha la la la la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la la la la)
People's faces painted just like clowns

Let The Wind Carry Me
Let The Wind Carry Me
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
Performer(s): Joni Mitchell
Papa's faith is people
Mama she believes in cleaning
Papa's faith is in people
Mama she's always cleaning
Papa brought home the sugar
Mama taught me the deeper meaning
She don't like my kick pleat skirt
She don't like my eyelids painted green
She don't like me staying up late
In my high-heeled shoes
Living for that rock'n'roll dancing scene
Papa says leave the girl alone, mother
She's looking like a movie queen
Mama thinks she spoilt me
Papa knows somehow he set me free
Mama thinks she spoilt me rotten
She blames herself
But papa he blesses me
It's a rough road to travel
Mama let go now
It's always called for me
Sometimes I get that feeling
And I want to settle
And raise a child up with somebody
I get that strong longing
And I want to settle
And raise a child up with somebody
But it passes like the summer
I'm a wild seed again
Let the wind carry me
