I Don't Know (Ozzy Osbourne)


I Don't Know
Composer(s): Ozzy Osbourne; Randy Rhoads; Bob Daisley
First release by: Ozzy Osbourne - 1980



People look to me and say
Is the end near, when is the final day
What's the future of mankind
How do I know, I got left behind
Everyone goes through changes
Looking to find the truth
Don't look at me for answers
Don't ask me - I don't know
How am I supposed to know
Hidden meanings that will never show
Fools and prophets from the past
Life's a stage and we're all in the cast
Ya gotta believe in someone asking me who is right
Asking me who to follow, don't ask me, I don't know
I don't know - I don't know - I don't know
Nobody ever told me I found out for myself
Ya gotta believe in foolish miracles
It's not how you play the game
It's if you win or lose you can choose
Don't confuse win or lose, it's up to you
It's up to you - it's up to you - it's up to you

People look to me and say
Is the end near, when is the final day
What's the future of mankind
How do I know, I got left behind
Everyone goes through changes
Looking to find the truth
Don't look at me for answers
Don't ask me - I don't know
How am I supposed to know
Hidden meanings that will never show
Fools and prophets from the past
Life's a stage and we're all in the cast
Ya gotta believe in someone asking me who is right
Asking me who to follow, don't ask me, I don't know
I don't know - I don't know - I don't know

J'En Ai Marre


J'En Ai Marre
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



Il paraît qu'aux dernières nouvelles
Ouais, presque au journal officiel
Je suis mort au moins trois fois
Et je ne le savais pas

Il fallait m'inviter
Je me serais fait un plaisir de venir pleurer
Comme j'suis en pleine santé
Je crois que j'ai du réssuscité

Hé, il paraît que mes amours
Ne font que trois petits tours
Que je suis milliardaire ou fauché
Ouh, oui, faut qu'j'en parle à mon banquier

Ça dépend des journaux
Je suis laid, je suis beau ou même idiot
Je ne veux plus d'écriteau
Sur ma tête, sur mon dos sur ma peau

J'en ai marre que l'on invente ma vie
Et que l'on me dis qui je suis
J'en ai marre que l'on invente mes nuits
J'en ai marre surtout quand on est pas avec moi dans mon lit

Ouais, arrêtez de me faire passer
Pour c'que j'n'ai jamais été
Être fiché catalogué
Comme vous l'avez rêvé

Je suis fou, j'suis voyou
J'suis drogué, j'suis cinglé, choisissez
Je porte tous les chapeaux
Ça dépend des télé des radios

J'en ai marre que l'on invente ma vie
Et que l'on me dis qui je suis
J'en ai marre d'être le dernier à savoir
Qui était avec moi dans ma baignoire

J'en ai marre de tous ceux qui m'ont connu
Que de ma vie je n'ai jamais vu
J'en ai marre que l'on invente mes nuits
J'en ai marre surtout quand on est pas avec moi dans mon lit

Je suis fou, j'suis voyou
J'suis drogué, j'suis cinglé, choisissez
Je porte tous les chapeaux
Ça dépend des télé des radios

J'en ai marre que l'on invente ma vie
Et que l'on me dis qui je suis
J'en ai marre d'être le dernier à savoir
Qui était avec moi dans ma baignoire

J'en ai marre de tous ceux qui m'ont connu
Que de ma vie je n'ai jamais vu
J'en ai marre que l'on invente mes nuits
J'en ai marre surtout quand on est pas avec moi dans mon lit

J'en ai marre
J'en ai marre...

To Love Somebody


To Love Somebody
Composer(s): Robin Gibb - Barry Gibb
First release by: Bee Gees - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages:
1967 - Si J'avais Le Courage (Herbert Léonard)
1968 - Così Ti Amo (I Califfi)
1992 - Como Tú Sabes (Pandora)



There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you
Lived with you
There's a way everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got?
You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so very blind
I'm a man, can't you see
What I am
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got?

I Don't Hurt Anymore


I Don't Hurt Anymore
Composer(s): Don Robertson; Jack Rollins
First release by: Hank Snow - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists



It don't hurt anymore
All my teardrops are dried
No more walkin' the floor
With that burnin' inside
Just to think it could be
Time has opened the door
And at last I am free
I Don't Hurt Anymore

No use to deny I wanted to die
The day you said we were through
But now that I find you're out of my mind
I can't believe that it's true
I've forgotten somehow
That I cared so before
And it's wonderful now
I Don't Hurt Anymore

No use to deny I wanted to die
The day you said we were through
But now that I find you're out of my mind
I can't believe that it's true
I've forgotten somehow
That I cared so before
And it's wonderful now
I Don't Hurt Anymore

J'Embrasse Les Filles


J'Embrasse Les Filles
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



J'embrasse les filles et je ne les revois pas
Certains me disent que ça ne se fait pas
Mais dès que je les vois mon cœur brûle de joie
J'embrasse les filles après tout moi j'aime ça

J'embrasse les filles et chaque fois je crois
Trouver la fille qu'on aimerait qu'une fois
En la raccompagnant je m'aperçois déjà
Qu'une autre fille est déjà dans mes bras

J'embrasse les filles à part celles des copains
Elles sont gentilles et je les aime bien
Quand elles ont de la peine souvent je les promène
J'embrasse les filles qui n'ont pas eu de veine

J'embrasse les filles et pour ma liberté
J'attends la fille que je pourrai aimer
En attendant qu'elle vienne je peux bien m'amuser
J'embrasse les filles et vive la liberté
Ouais j'embrasse les filles et vive la liberté

I Don't Have The Heart


I Don't Have The Heart
Composer(s): Jud Friedman; Alan Rich
First release by: James Ingram - 1989



Your face is beaming
You say it's 'cause you're dreaming
Of how good it's going to be
You say you've been around
And now you've finally found
Everything you wanted and needed in me

I don't have the heart to hurt you
It's the last thing I wanna do
But I don't have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to

Inside I'm dying
Seeing you crying
How can I make you understand
I care about you
So much about you
I'm trying to say this, as gently as I can

I don't have the heart to hurt you
It's the last thing I wanna do
But I don't have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to

You're so trusting
And Open
Hoping that love will start
But I don't have the heart
Oh no, I don't have the heart

I don't have the heart to hurt you
It's the last thing I wanna do
But I don't have the heart to love you
Not the way you want me to

To Love And Be Loved


To Love And Be Loved
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



To love - and be loved
That's what life's - all about
Keeps the stars - coming out
What makes a sad heart sing - the birds take wing

To love - and be loved
That's what living - is for
Makes me want you the more - the more we cling

Let others race - to the moon
Through time and space - to the moon
My goal is greater than this
To reach your lips - to share your kiss

To stay - in your arms
Is the dream - I pursue
To be sheltered - and safe - from the storm
To be cosy - and ever - so warm

And for always - to love
And be loved - by you

I Don't Eat Animals


I Don't Eat Animals
Composer(s): Melanie Safka
Performer(s): Melanie Safka



I was just thinking about the way it's supposed to be
I'll eat the plants and the fruit from the trees
And I'll live on vegetables and I'll grow on seeds
But I don't eat animals and they don't eat me
Oh no, I don't eat animals 'cause I love them, you see
I don't eat animals, I want nothing dead in me

I don't eat white flour, white sugar makes you rot
Oh, white could be beautiful but mostly it's not
A little bit of whole meal, some raisins and cheese
But I don't eat animals and they don't eat me
Oh no, I don't eat animals 'cause I love them, you see
I don't eat animals, I want nothing dead in me

A little bit of whole meal, some raisins and cheese
I'll eat the plants and the fruit from the trees
And I'll live on vegetables and I'll grow on seeds
But I won't eat animals and they won't eat me
Oh no, I'll live on life, I want nothing dead in me
You know I'll become life and my life will become me
You know I'll live on life and my life will live on me

I wrote this song in Columbus, Missouri
I was... had a day off, so I, I wanted to go to the country
and that wasn't very difficult because the country was...
Columbus, Missouri is the country
And I walked outside my door and I saw a big cow and I said
"Oh, moo, you know, don't you, you know that I don't eat cows?"
And the cow didn't say anything except: "Mmmm, Melanie"
And so, and so I wrote him this song
and I wrote it really for all the cows

Thank You For The Roses


Thank You For The Roses
Composer(s): Jim Anglin
Performer(s): Kitty Wells



Oh, I thank you for the roses
They're just like a breath of spring
Oh, I thank you for the roses
And the memories that the roses bring

At my door, one dozen roses
On the card there was no name
My life revolves around the sender
Only memories, they still remain

Oh, I thank you for the roses
They're just like a breath of spring
Oh, I thank you for the roses
And the memories that the roses bring

How careless love shines so brightly
Can burn out like a flame
Those happy times we remember
There was sunshine and now the rain

Oh, I thank you for the roses
They're just like a breath of spring
Oh, I thank you for the roses
And the memories that the roses bring

I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine


I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine
Composer(s): Mack David
First recording/First release by: Tony Martin - 1949/1950
Covered by multiple other artists



The sun contains a ray
They label Vitamin D
If you like Vitamin D
It's quite alright with me
But I am here to say
That I like vitamin love
But I can't get vitamin love
With that doggone sun above....

I don't care if the sun don't shine
I get my lovin' in the evening time
When I'm with my baby

It's no fun with the sun around
But I get going when the sun goes down
And I meet my baby

That's when we kiss and kiss and kiss
And then we kiss some more
Don't ask how many times we kiss
At a time like this, who keeps score?

So I don't care if the sun don't shine
I get my lovin' in the evening time
When I'm with my baby

That's when we kiss and kiss and kiss
And then we kiss some more
Don't ask how many times we kiss
At a time like this, who keeps score?

So I don't care if the sun don't shine
I get my lovin' in the evening time
When I'm with my baby

Jehan L'Advenu


Jehan L'Advenu
Performer(s): Georges Brassens



Puis il revint comme il était parti
Bon pied, bon œil, personne d'averti
Aux dents, toujours la vive marguerite
Aux yeux, toujours la flamme qui crépite

Mit sur ta lèvre, Aline, un long baiser
Mit sur la table un peu d'or étranger
Chanta, chanta deux chansons de marine
S'alla dormir dans la chambre enfantine

Puis il revint comme il était parti
Bon pied, bon œil, personne d'averti
Aux dents, toujours la vive marguerite
Aux yeux, toujours la flamme qui crépite

Rêva tout haut d'écume et de cavale
S'entortilla dans d'étranges rafales
Puis au réveil, quand l'aube se devine
Chanta, chanta deux chansons de marine

Puis il revint comme il était parti
Bon pied, bon œil, personne d'averti
Aux dents, toujours la vive marguerite
Aux yeux, toujours la flamme qui crépite

Fit au pays son adieu saugrenu
Et s'en alla comme il était venu
Fit au pays son adieu saugrenu
Et s'en alla comme il était venu

To Love Again


To Love Again
Composer(s): George Sidney - Morris W. Stoloff - Ned Washington
Performer(s): Jerry Vale



No heart should refuse love
How lucky are the ones
Who choose love
And if we should lose love
We have the right to love again...

In a world full of faces
So few ever find their places
In many cases
Hearts have lost their way...

Don't live in the past dear
For you and me the die
Is cast dear
But if love won't last dear
We have the right to love again...

Don't live in the past dear
For you and me the die
Is cast dear
But if love won't last dear
We have the right to love again!

Well you can tell ev'ryone I'm a down disgrace
Drag my name all over the place
I don't care anymore
You can tell ev'rybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore

I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play

'Cos I've been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to and end
They don't care anymore
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind
I don't care anymore I don't care no more

I don't care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway

I won't be there anymore
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore

Well, I don't care now what you say
'Cos ev'ry day I'm feeling fine with myself
And I don't care now what you say
Hey I'll do alright by myself
'Cos I know

'Cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face 'cos you held all the cards
I don't care anymore
And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'Cos all I want of you is just a let me be
I don't care anymore
D'you hear?

I don't care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway

I won't be there no more
So get out of my way
Let me by

D'you hear?
I don't care anymore
I don't care no more
You listening?

Jefke


Jefke
Performer(s): Della Bossiers



Gestruikeld over wolfijzers en schietgeweren
Legde Magda er het bijltje toen bij neer
Zo moe van het vergaad’ren en tele-foneren
Liet z’ alles achter om weer anders te gaan leven
Maar vliegt den Aelvoet, dan is ’t storm op zee

Want al haar vrienden en collega’s
Waren in hele diepe rouw
Omdat er geen alternatief was
Voor zo een sterke, dapp’re vrouw

Want wie moest haar nu toch vervangen
In zulk een aartsmoeilijke baan?
En net toen ze zich aan een touw wilden verhangen
Kwam hij er aan

En toen kwam jefke, jefke, jefke, je-ef-ke

Hij kwam en zag en overwon zijn angst voor dassen
En ging in een kostuum naar het paleis
De koning gaf hem daar een doos vol paperassen
En zei ‘Voilà dat is voor u, ’t gaat over Nepal
Ons Magdake geraakt er niet uit wijs’

Jefke sloeg toen aan ‘t studeren
En leerde snel in een twee drie
dat automatische geweren
bijdragen tot democratie

Hij riep toen: ‘veni vidi vici!’
En op ‘t ministerkabinet
Heeft hij met onverschrokken moed de coalitie
En ‘t land gered

’t Was dankzij Jefke, Jefke, Jefke, Je-ef-ke

Tout doux, doux, doucement
Il a pris mon cœur d'enfant
Et il m'a donné
Ce dont je rêvais

Tout doux, doux, doucement
Il a pris mon cœur d'enfant
Et je l'aime, oui, je l'aime
Oui, je l'aime

Quand il vient vers moi
Je ne sais pourquoi
J'ai l'impression que tout va bien
Et qu'il ne me manque vraiment plus rien

Oui, oui, tout doucement
Il a pris mon cœur d'enfant
Et je l'aime, oui je l'aime
Oui, je l'aime

Et si la chance
Ne me quitte pas
Un jour, il sera pour moi,
Rien que pour moi
Ah, ah !

Tout doux, doux, doucement
Il a pris mon cœur d'enfant
Car il m'a donné
Ce dont je rêvais

Tout doux, doux, doucement
Il a pris mon cœur d'enfant
Et je l'aime, oui, je l'aime
Oui, je l'aime

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine

J'Effacerai De Ma Mémoire


J'Effacerai De Ma Mémoire
Composer(s): P. Groscolas; G. Thibaut
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



J'effacerai de ma mémoire
Tout mes souvenirs d'enfant
Depuis couper le cordon
Jusqu'à ma première dent

J'effacerai de ma mémoire
Mes souvenirs de jeunesse
Depuis mes derniers boutons
Jusqu'à ma première caresse

J'effacerai de ma memoire
Depuis mon premier jour
Jusqu'à la nuit qui vient
Et dans le livre de mon histoire
Les pages deviendront blanches
Du début jusqu'au mot fin

J'effacerai de ma mémoire
Tous me souvenirs d'amour
Depuis mon dernier "je t'aime"
Jusqu'à mon premier "toujours"

J'effacerai de ma mémoire
Tous mes souvenirs d'hier
Depuis mon premier poême
Jusqu'à ma dernière guerre

J'effacerai de ma memoire
Mes souvenirs de demain
Et ma tête se videra
Je serai fou, enfin

J'effacerai même ma mémoire
Et le néant s'ouvrira
Mais je ne t'oublierai pas
J'y plongerai avec toi
