Ich Bin Von Kopf Bis Fuss Auf Liebe Eingestellt


Ich Bin Von Kopf Bis Fuss Auf Liebe Eingestellt
English Title: Falling In Love Again - 1930
Composer(s): Friedrich Holländer
First recording/First release by: Marlene Dietrich - 1929/1930
Covered by multiple other artists



Ein rätselhafter Schimmer
Ein "je ne sais-pas-quoi"
Liegt in den Augen immer
Bei einer schönen Frau
Doch wenn sich meine Augen
Bei einem vis-à-vis
Ganz tief in seine saugen
Was sprechen dann sie?

Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine Welt
Und sonst gar nichts
Das ist, was soll ich machen
Meine Natur
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts

Männer umschwirr'n mich
Wie Motten um das Licht
Und wenn sie verbrennen,
Ja dafür kann ich nicht
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts

Was bebt in meinen Händen
In ihrem heißen Druck?
Sie möchten sich verschwenden
Sie haben nie genug
Ihr werdet mir verzeihen
Ihr müßt' es halt versteh'n
Es lockt mich stets von neuem
Ich find' es so schön!

Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine Welt
Und sonst gar nichts
Das ist, was soll ich machen
Meine Natur
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts

Männer umschwirr'n mich
Wie Motten um das Licht
Und wenn sie verbrennen
Ja dafür kann ich nichts
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts

Two Girls


Two Girls
Composer(s): Townes Van Zandt
First release: Townes Van Zandt - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists



Well, the clouds didn't look like cotton
they didn't even look like clouds
I was underneath the weather
my friends looked a crowd
The swimmin' hole was full of rum
I tried to find out why
All I learned was this my friend
you got to swim before you fly

I got two girls
one's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
and one I do not know

Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse
Passed by not long ago
They asked me where the action was
I said I did not know
As they disappeared into the brush
I heard the driver say
He's a little slow between the ears
He's always been that way

Jolly Jane just lays around
and listens with her mouth
she's had about a dozen husbands
but the last one pulled out
Now, who's gonna bring her dinner
through the weary years ahead
all she'll get from me is sympathy
got no time to see she's fed

It's cold down on the bayou
they say it's in your mind
but the moccasins are treadin' ice
and leavin strange designs
Cajuns say the last time
that this happend they weren't here
All Beaumont's full of penguins
and I'm a-playin' it by ear

I'll be clickin' by your house about two forty-five
Sidewalk sundae strawberry surprise,
I got a cherry popsicle right on time
A big stick, mamma, that'll blow your mind

'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band (yeah)
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you

Baby, missed me in the alley, baby, don't you fret
Come back around and don't forget
When you're tired and you're hungry and you want something cool
Got something better than a swimming pool

'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band

See me coming, you ain't got no change
Don't worry baby, it can be arranged
Show me you can smile, baby just for me
Fix you with a drumstick, I'll do it for free

'Cause I'm the ice cream man, I'm a one-man band
I'm the ice cream man, honey, I'll be good to you
Be good to you, be good to you
Good to you yeah, good to you yeah, good to you yeah, good to you yeah
Good to you yeah, good to you, I'll be good to you, I'll be good to you...

Kiosque À Journeaux


Kiosque À Journeaux
Composer(s): Michel Rivgauche; Claude Léveillée
Performer(s): Edith Piaf



L'Humanité! Le Figaro! France-soir!
Les travailleurs ont le droit de savoir?
Carreaux, lorets, phosphate, rio, dicto
La princesse portait un nouveau chapeau
Zizi place dix-sept, gagnant vingt-deux...

Venez chercher les mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...

On précisait hier dans les couloirs
Que l'Eminence grise serait pas noire
La France bat la Pologne par trois-zéro
Grâce à Lopez, Kobarsky et Aszlo
La Princesse va faire couper ses cheveux

Venez chercher des mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...

Eclaircie passagère et temps couvert
Trois pièces : cuisine, moquette, très bonne affaire
Et la poitrine sera plus haute au printemps
Mon linge a vraiment la blancheur du blanc
Ma foi, ce sera un événement heureux...

Venez chercher des mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...

Two For The Road


Two For The Road
Composer(s): Henry Mancini - Leslie Bricusse
Performer(s): Henry Mancini



If you're feeling fancy free
come wonder through the world with me
And any place we chance to be
will be our rendezvous

Two for the road we'll travel down the years
collecting precious memories
Selecting souvenirs
and living life the way we please

In summer time the sun will shine
in winter we'll drink summer wine
And every day that you are mine
will be a lovely day

As long as love still wears a smile
I know that we'll be two for the road
and that's a long, long while

As long as love still wears a smile
I know that we'll be two for the road
and that's a long, long while

This is the night that I planned on
Darling, these are the stars that I've had in mind

Two Faces Have I


Two Faces Have I
Composer(s): Lou Christie - Twyla Herbert
Performer(s): Lou Christie



I don't want the world to know
I don't want my heart to show
Two faces have I
I pretend that I'm happy
But I'm Mr. blue
I pretend that I'm happy
Since I lost you
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Will I ever laugh again
She'll never see me cry
Will I walk with a smile on my face
Knowing I live a lie
I pretend that I'm carefree
But what am I
I pretend that I'm carefree
But I'm living a lie
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry

Kiss An Angel Good Morning


Kiss An Angel Good Morning
Composer(s): Ben Peters
Performer(s): Charley Pride;
and various other artists



When ever I chance to meet
some old friends on the street
They wonder how does a man get to feel this way
I've always got a smiling face
anytime & any place
And every time they ask me why I just smile & say

You've got to kiss an angel good morning
And let her know you think about her when you're gone
Kiss an angel good morning
And love her like the devil when you get back home

Well people may try to guess, the secret of my happiness
But some of them never learn it's a simple thing
The secret that I'm speaking of, is a woman & a man in love
And the answer is in this song that I always sing

Two Eyes


Two Eyes
Composer(s): Steele - Bart - Pratt
Performer(s): Tommy Steele and The Steelmen



I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!

Tantalizing, hypnotizing
Looking through me, speeking to me
Fascinating, captivating
Peepers keep me waiting

I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!

Dig those linkers, dig those winkers
Such expression, this impression
That you're making's got me shaking
I'm yours for the taking

I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!

Ice Cream For Crow


Ice Cream For Crow
Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
First release by: Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band - 1982



It's so hot
Looks like you have three beaks, crow
The moon's so full
White hat on a pumpkin
You know there's something
The moon was a stone's throw
Stop the show
I need to say hello to the crow
Light the fire piano
The moon showed up
And it started to show
Tonight there would be ice cream
Ice cream for crow
Ice cream by night
Sun cream by day

Ice cream for crow
Ice cream by night
Sun cream by day

The sun ain't stable
Ice cream for crow
Crow pants the scarecrow
Crow dance ah ho ho
Crow dance
A panther
Scarecrow you answer
You can hee and haw
Maugh and scratch
Ha ha ha
Ha ha ha
Boss and toss
Don't shake my hand
Give me your claw
Two tears in a haystack
Scarecrow get back
Tonight there will be
A feather treatment
Beneath the symbol
We'll all assemble
Oh how we'll fly
Oh how we'll tremble
Cut the cake
We'll all get well
Turn up the speakers
Hop flop squawk
It's a keeper
Ice cream for show
Oh ice cream for crow
Now now that's it
Now you can go

Kiss And Say Goodbye


Kiss And Say Goodbye
Composer(s): Winfred Lovett
Performer(s): The Manhattans;
and various other artists



This has got to be the saddest day of my life
I called you here today for a bit of bad news
I won’t be able to see you anymore
Because of my obligations and the ties that you have
We’ve been meeting here every day
And since this is our last day together
I wanna hold you just one more time
When you turn and walk away don’t look back
I want to remember you just like this
Let’s just kiss and say goodbye

I had to meet you here today
There’s just so many things to say
Please don’t stop me till I’m through
This is something I hate to do

We’ve been meeting here so long
I guess what begun, oh, is wrong
Please, darling, don’t you cry
Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye)

Many months have passed us by (I’m gonna miss you)
I’m gonna miss you, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
I’ve got ties and so do you
I just think this is the thing to do

It’s gonna hurt me, I can’t lie
Maybe you’ll meet, you’ll meet another guy
Understand me, won’t you try, try, try, try, try, try, try
Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Goodbye)

Mmm…mmm…mmm… (I’m gonna miss you)

I’m gonna miss you, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
Understand me, won’t you try (I’m gonna miss you)
It’s gonna hurt me, I can’t lie (I’m gonna miss you)
Take my handkerchief and wipe your eyes (I’m gonna miss you)

Maybe you will find, you’ll find another guy (I’m gonna miss you)
Let’s kiss and say goodbye, pretty baby (I’m gonna miss you)
Please, don’t you cry (I’m gonna miss you)
Understand me, won’t you try (I’m gonna miss you)

Let’s just kiss and say goodbye (Bye)

Two Dreams Met


Two Dreams Met
Performer(s): Mitchell Ayres & Perry Como



Two dreams met
They knew of two hearts that were lonely
That could be so happy
If only they found romance
Two dreams met
They said we must go out and find them
And then as we tiptoe behind them
We'll make them dance
A band was softly playing
Sweet music filled the air
"Turn around," my dream kept saying
I did, and you were there
Then two hearts met
A beautiful love affair started
The dreams winked their eyes and departed
They knew that their work was done
For two lonely hearts were one

Two Dollars In The Jukebox


Two Dollars In The Jukebox
Composer(s): Eddie Rabbitt
Performer(s): Eddie Rabbitt



I've got two dollars in the jukebox
Five dollars in a bottle
Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
With heartaches by the dozen
And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

Why do I, why do I
Need to see those blue eyes
Lookin' at me that way again
After the way she did me, it's a sin

How could she, how could she
Just walk out and leave me
After all these nights in her arms
Look where I am

And I've got two dollars in the jukebox
Five dollars in a bottle
Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
With heartaches by the dozen
And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

I've got two dollars in the jukebox
Five dollars in a bottle
Ten more just in case that don't do the trick

And I'll be dead broke tomorrow mornin'
With heartaches by the dozen
And a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

I've got a lady on my mind that's drivin' me crazy

Ice Cream
Composer(s): Howard Johnson; Billy Moll; Robert A.K. King
Performer(s): Harry Reser's Six Jumping Jacks (vocal: Tom Stacks)
and multiple other artists



Oh!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

In the land of ice and snows
Up among the Eskimos
There's a college known as Ogiwawa!
You should hear those college boys
Gee, they make an awful noise
When they sing an Eskimo tra-la-la!

They've got a leader, big cheer leader
Oh, what a guy!
He's got a frozen face just like an Eskimo Pie!
When he says, "Come on, let's go!"
Though it's forty-five below
This is what the Eskimos all holler

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Tuesdays, Mondays, we all scream for sundaes
Sis-boom-bah!
Boola-boola, sarsaparoolla
If you got chocolate, we'll take vanoola!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Frosts and malts that are peppered and salted
Sis-boom-bah!
Oh, spumoni, oh, cartoni
And confidentially, we'll take baloney
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Rah! Rah! Rah!

Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Sweet summer breeze
Whispering Trees
Stars shining softly above

Roses in bloom
Wafted perfume
Sleepy birds dreaming of love

Safe in your arms
Far from alarms
Daylight shall come but in vain...

Tenderly pressed
Close to my breast
Kiss me
Kiss Me Again
