One Burning Desire
One Burning Desire
Composer(s): Hugh Cornwell
Performer(s): Hugh Cornwell
I'm gonna try and steal a car
Drive it off with you somewhere afar
I'll start a fire deep inside
Find a place where we can hide
And as life flashes by
You want to know the reasons why
I'll be there with words to take you higher
One burning desire
I'm gonna try to be a light
Set the world on fire day and night
We start an education here
The signs look good no need to fear
The other people come and go
Why play the scenes they only know
I'll be here to help you walk the wire
One burning desire one burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire
I want to get inside your head
Find your ma and pa and what got said
And as we get familiar too
Find every scar and small tattoo
And as we start to play the game
I'll confess and take the blame
But you're the one who poured fuel on the fire
One burning desire one burning desire one burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire
One burning desire

One Brown Mouse
One Brown Mouse
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull; Echolyn;
The Kelele Brothers; Steve Lieberman
Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile
Brush away that black cloud from your shoulder
Twitch your whiskers
Feel that you're really real
Another tea-time, another day older
Puff warm breath on your tiny hands
You wish you were a man
who every day can turn another page
Behind your glass you sit and look
at my ever-open book
One Brown Mouse sitting in a cage
Do you wonder if I really care for you
Am I just the company you keep
Which one of us exercises on the old treadmill
Who hides his head, pretending to sleep?
Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile
And every day we'll turn another page
Behind our glass we'll sit and look
at our ever-open book
One Brown Mouse sitting in a cage

One Broken Heart For Sale
One Broken Heart For Sale
Composer(s): Otis Blackwell;
Winfield Scott; Leith Stevens
Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
Otis Blackwell; Ronnie McDowell
Who wants to buy a heart
One broken lover's heart
One broken heart for sale
Well, excuse me if you see me
Crying like a baby
Since she rejected me
There's nothing left to save me
Hey Cupid, where are you?
My heart is growing sadder
That girl rejected me
Just when I thought I had her
She would not listen to
The things my heart was saying
She turned and walked away
And told me I was playing
Some guys have all the luck
And my heart hasn't any
I think I'll paint a sign
For sale for a penny
Who wants to buy a heart (Oh yeah)
One broken lover's heart
One broken heart for sale
Ooooh-ooooh-oooh-oooh-ooh
Who wants to buy a heart (My poor heart)
One broken lover's heart
One broken heart for sale

Buiten huilt de wind om 't huis
Maar de kachel staat te snorren op vier
Er hangt een lapje voor de brievenbus
En in de tochtigste kieren zit papier
Wij waren heel erg arm en niemand hield van ons
Maar we hadden thee en nog geen tv
Maar wel radio en lange vingers
We gingen nog in bad, haartjes nat
Nog even op, totdat vader zei: "Vooruit, naar bed"
Dan kregen we een kruik mee
Gezichten op 't behang
Maar niet echt van binnen bang
Toen was geluk heel gewoon
Buiten huilt de wind om 't huis
Maar moeder breit een warme sjaal
En het ganzebord op tafel
stond er de volgende moregen nog helemaal
Ook gingen wij naar 't bos
Daar zijn we toen verdwaald
Van de wag geraakt, carriere gemaakt
Heel die pannekoekensmaak vergeten
En Nederland herrees onder Drees
Fanny Blankers Koen die won vier maal goud in Londen
Als je jokte was dat zonde
De legpuzzle kwam klaar
In het derde vredesjaar
Toen was geluk heel gewoon
Die schooltas bleek het eerste teken
Dat de zaak wal was bekeken
Voor zover je zonder plechtsbesef
Je leven leed, je leven leed
Buiten huilt de wind om 't huis
Maar binnen stond de kolenkit paraat
En de stoep waarop geknikkerd werd
Was het belangrijste stukje van de straat
En Nederland was groot en niemand ging nog dood
En gezelligheid kende nauw'lijks tijd
Bij waxinelichtjes van Verkade
We gingen nog in bad, haartjes nat
Nog even op, totdat vader zei: "Vooruit, naar bed"
Dan kregen we een kruik mee
Gezichten op 't behang
Maar niet echt van binnen bang
Toen was geluk heel gewoon

Melodia De Arrabal
Melodia De Arrabal
Composer(s): Mario Battistella;
Carlos Gardel; Alfredo Le Pera
Performer(s): Carlos Gardel
Barrio plateado por la luna
rumor de milongas es toda tu fortuna
Hay un fuelle que rezonga
en la cortada mistonga
mientras que una pebeta
linda como una flor
espera coqueta
bajo la quieta
luz de un farol
Barrio, barrio
que tenés el alma inquieta
de un gorrión sentimental
¡Penas, ruegos!
Es todo el barrio malevo
melodía de arrabal
¡Viejo barrio!
¡Perdoná si a evocarte
se me pianta un lagrimón
que al rodar en tu empedrao
es un beso prolongao
que te da mi corazón
Cuna de taitas y cantores
de broncas y entreveros
de todos mis amores
En tus muros con mi acero
yo grabé nombres que quiero
Rosa, la milonguita
era rubia Margot
y en la primer cita
la paica Rita
me dio su amor

One Boy, Two Little Girls
One Boy, Two Little Girls
Composer(s): Bill Giant; Bernie Baum; Florence Kaye
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
One boy, two little girls
Three hearts yearning for love
Although it's hard to explain
I know it may sound insane
But this one boy loves two little girls
Folks say three is a crowd
To each boy, one girl's allowed
But right now I'm having such fun
I just can't give up either one
'Cos this one boy loves two little girls
There will come a time I'll have to settle down
But until that time I love two girls hanging around
Now one day I must decide
Which one I'll choose for my bride
But till we three must part
I've twice as much love in my heart
'Cos this one boy loves two little girls

As performed by George Thorogood:
Wanna tell you a story
About the house-man blues
I come home one Friday
Had to tell the landlady I'd-a lost my job
She said that don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday
Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent
And out the door I went
So I goes to the landlady
I said, "You let me slide?"
I'll have the rent for you in a month
Next I don't know
So said let me slide it on you know people
I notice when I come home in the evening

But for five year she was so nice
Loh' she was lovy-dovy
I come home one particular evening
The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?"
I said, "No, can't find no job"
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent
She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job"
Said "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner
Leaning up against a post"
I said "But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day"
She said "That don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday"
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent
And out the door I went
So I go down the streets
Down to my good friend's house
I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know
Can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"
He said "Let me go and ask my wife"
He come out of the house
I could see it in his face
I know that was no
He said "I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, you know"
I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too"
So I go back home
I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent
She said "Yeah?" I said "Oh yeah"
And then she was so nice
Loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go
I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go
She a-howlin' about the front rent, she'll be lucky to get any back rent
She ain't gonna get none of it
So I stop in the local bar you know people
I go to the bar, I ring my coat, I call the bartender
Said "Look man, come down here", he got down there
So what you want?
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when
I've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin
Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose
Need me a triple shot of that juice
Gonna get drunk don't you have no fear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
But I'm sitting now at the bar
I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow
I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer
Looked down the bar, here come the bartender
I said "Look man, come down here"
So what you want?
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Performer(s): The Osmonds;
and various other artists
I can tell you've been hurt
by that look on your face, girl
Some guy brought sad into your happy world
You need love, but you're afraid that if you give in
someone else will come along
and sock it to ya again
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try before you give up on love
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Oh, I don't care what they say
I don't care what you heard
I could make you happy, baby
satisfy you, too
But how can I if you won't give me a chance
to prove my love to you?
Won't you just give me one chance?
I'll give you my guarantee that you won't be hurt again
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
before you give up on love
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, I don't care what they say
I don't care what you heard now
I've been noticing you, baby
for a long, long time
And I'm not ashamed to tell the world
that you really messed up my mind
Girl, to me you're like a dream come true
I'd rather hurt myself than to ever hurt you
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, give it one more try
before you give up on love, girl
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl
Oh, I don't care what they say
I don't care what you heard now
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch, girl....

Every time I see you, girl, it makes me feel so sad
Knowing you've been seeing some other guy
that treats you bad
Did you know I'm burning deep inside for you?
Just give me the chance now
and we can see it through
If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man
Gonna take you with me
far away from hearts of stone
We'll live in the country and raise some children of our own
I will be your lover, I will be your friend
I'll give you my loving, on that you can depend
If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man
And there'll be no more crying, I'll make your dreams come true
You know I'll never turn my back on you
Take you to the city, girl, we're gonna buy some clothes
Dress you up so pretty and then we'll take in all the shows
Find a place that's jumping, where the music's tight
And we'll keep on dancing 'til the morning light
If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man, oh yeah
If you'll be my woman, I'll be your man
Know I'm gonna give you everything I can
If you'll be my woman, I'll be your man,
There'll be no more running, gonna make a stand

Melk En Honing
Melk En Honing
Composer(s): Rob Chrispijn; Henk Temming
Performer(s): Herman Van Veen
Op de dag van jouw ontstaan
Had je moeder juist haar C & A'tje aan
En je vader droeg een grijze suede jasje
Samen zijn ze op die zondag Artis in gegaan
Verbaasd dat 't zo zacht was voor de tijd van 't jaar
Ze keken naar de dieren in de kooi en naar elkaar
Verlegen schoof je moeder dichterbij
Waar zij geen naam voor kon bedenken, dat werd jij
Je vader was die dag de prins, je moeder een prinses
Gezegend door een zonnekoning
Werd jij de bekroning op per ongeluk-expres
Op de dag van jouw ontstaan waren alle bomen net begonnen
Zich op te maken voor een nieuwe lente
Die al weken in de lucht hing, maar toen van start kon gaan
Je vader was een zwijger maar hij praatte honderduit
Je moeder, in de schaduw, genoot van zijn geluid
En 't vreemd geluksgevoel daarbij
Waar zij geen naam voor kon bedenken, dat werd jij
Jouw vader was die dag de prins, je moeder een prinses
In een land van melk en honing werd jij
De beloning, per ongeluk-expres
En al hebben ze dan later, volgens jou
Elke fout gemaakt die mensen ook maar maken
Die eerste keer schreeuwden mussen 't van de daken
En was de hemel van 't allerDelftste blauw
Op de dag van jouw ontstaan
Stonden ze, als bij afspraak, op
En in een omgebouwde zolderkamer
Die 't daglicht nog verdragen kon
Heeft ze haar jurk toen uitgedaan
De hartstocht en de aandacht waar 't later aan ontbrak
Gaf hen vleugels, en ze vlogen hoog boven het dak
Getekend voor 't leven, allebei
't Beste dat ze konden geven dat werd jij
Jouw vader was die dag een prins, je moeder de prinses
Aanbeden op een bovenwoning
Jij werd de bekroning op per ongeluk-expres
Jouw vader was die dag een prins, je moeder de prinses
Aanbeden op een bovenwoning
Jij werd de bekroning op per ongeluk-expres

All the things I do
Show my love and I'm making it clear
One and one is two

What am I to do
Now that I'm in love with you

Don't you love me too?

From wanting you

What am I to do
Now that I'm in love with you
I'm hoping every day
I'm gonna hear you say
You really make my dreams come true
If you say that you're gonna be mine

Mélissa, métisse d'Ibiza
Vit toujours dévêtue
Dites jamais que je vous ai dit ça
Ou Mélissa me tue...
Le matin derrière ses canisses
alors qu'elle est moitié-nue
Sur les murs devant chez Mélissa
Y a tout plein d'inconnus
"Descendez, ça, c'est défendu!
Oh! c'est indécent!"
Elle crie mais bien entendu
Personne ne descend...
Sous la soie de sa jupe fendue
En zoom en gros-plans
Tout un tas d'individus
Filment, Noirs et Blancs...
Mélissa, métisse d'Ibiza
A des seins tout pointus
Dites jamais que je vous ai dit ça
Ou Mélissa me tue...
"Descendez, ça c'est défendu
Mater chez les gens!"
Elle crie mais bien entendu
Y a jamais d'agent...
Elle crie, c'est du temps perdu
Personne ne l'entend...
La police c'est tous des vendus
Dix ans qu'elle attend
Mélissa, métisse d'Ibiza
A toujours sa vertu
Dites jamais que je vous ai dit ça
Ou Mélissa me tue...
Ouh! Matez ma métisse
Ouh! Ma métisse est nue
Ouh! Matez ma métisse
Ouh! Ma métisse est nue
Mélissa, métisse d'Ibiza
Vit toujours dévêtue
Dites jamais que je vous ai dit ça
Je vous ai jamais vu
Le matin derrière ses canisses
alors je vends des longues-vues
Mais si jamais Mélissa sait ça
Là, c'est moi qui vous tue...
Ouh! Matez ma métisse
Ouh! Ma métisse est nue
Ouh! Matez ma métisse
Ouh! Ma métisse est nue...

Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah
The gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing many, loving none
Bearing sorrow, having fun
But, back home he'll always run
To sweet Melissa
Mmmm-hmmm
Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same
And no one knows the gypsy's name
And no one hears his lonely sighs
There are no blankets where he lies
Lord, in his deepest dreams the gypsy flies
With sweet Melissa
Mmmm-hmmm
Again, the mornin's come
Again, he's on the run
A sunbeam's shinin through his hair
Fear not to have a care
Well, pick up your gear and gypsy roll on
Roll on
Crossroads, will you ever let him go?
Lord, Lord
Or will you hide the dead man's ghost?
Or will he lie, beneath the clay?
Or will his spirit float away?
But, I know that he won't stay
Without Melissa
Yes, I know that he won't stay, yeah
Without Melissa

Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
I have heard all you've been saying
Yet I will love in my own way
Lonely as a desert breeze
I may wonder where I please
Yet I keep on longing
Just to rest a while
Where a sweetheart's tender eyes
Take the place of sand and skies
All the World forgotten
In one Woman's smile
One alone, to be my own
I alone, to know her caresses
One to be, eternally
The one my worshipping soul possesses
At her call, I'd give my all
All my life and all my love enduring
This would be a magic World to me
If she were mine alone
One alone, to be my own
I alone, to know her caresses
One to be, eternally
The one my worshipping soul possesses

Composer(s): Sonja Kristina Linwood
Performer(s): Curved Air; Sonja Kristina
Lovely lady, falling, laughing down the glory of a rainbow
Lovely lady, reaching, crying for the comfort of the day-glow
Melinda, more or less, Melinda, more or less, in dreams
But if and when she wakes again she knows it all begins again
Sleeping, waking, rising, falling, dumb but calling out to deafened friends
That's how it ends, Melinda, more or less, in dreams
Melinda, more or less, Melinda, more or less, in dreams
Fade, Melinda, fade into fantasy
Tell them you won't be played like any other instrument of fate
Fade, Melinda, fade into your fantasy
Tell them you're not prepared to wait for your dream of the end
Melinda, more or less, in dreams
Lovely lady, falling, laughing down the glory of a rainbow
Lovely lady, reaching, screaming for the comfort of the day-glow
Melinda, more or less, Melinda, more or less, in dreams
