Two Sparrows In A Hurricane
Two Sparrows In A Hurricane
Composer(s): Mark Alan Springer
Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
She's fifteen and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the keys to her heart
It's just matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will
There's a baby crying and one more on the way
There's a wolf at the door with a big stack of bills
They can't pay
The clouds are dark and the wind is high
But they can see the other side
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will
She's eighty-three and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the key to her heart
It's just a matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will

I'd Love To Change The World
I'd Love To Change The World
Composer(s): Alvin Lee
Performer(s): Ten Years After
and multiple other artists
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more?
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money, Monopoly
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

Killer On The Loose
Killer On The Loose
Composer(s): Phil Lynott
Performer(s): Thin Lizzy; Paul Di'Anno
Some people they call me Jack
Some people they call me insane
I'm looking for somebody
And I don't even know her name
I might be looking for you
Wherever you may be
For there is something I've got to do to you honey
And it's between you and me
Now you might think it's funny
Or maybe it's a joke
But you've got plenty of reason to worry honey
`Cause you wouldn't stand a hope
There's a killer on the loose again
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
A ladykiller on the loose
Now I'm not trying to be nasty
Or I'm not trying to make you scared
But there's a killer on the loose
Or haven't you heard
He'll be walking around this town
Just about midnight
Yes, that's Chinatown
That's right
That's right
Now you might think I'm messing
Or he don't exist
But honey I'm confessing
I'm a mad sexual rapist
There's a killer on the loose again
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
A ladykiller on the loose
"I'll be standing in the shadows of love
Waiting for you
Don't unzip your zipper
`Cause you know I'm Jack the Ripper
Now don't wail, don't..."
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadows
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Coming to get you
A ladykiller on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadows of love
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
That's right Jack
A ladykiller on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadow
A killer on the loose again, of love
There's a killer on the loose again
Oooh
You better watch out
A killer on the loose
Play that back
Check it back

Two Sleepy People
Two Sleepy People
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Frank Loesser
Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Marilyn Maxwell
and multiple other artists
Here we are, out of cigarettes
Holding hands and yawning; look how late it gets
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
Too much in love to say good-night
Say, here we are, in this cozy chair
Picking on a wishbone from the Frigidaire
Two sleepy people, with nothing to say
Much to much in love to break away
Do you the remember the nights we used to linger in the hall?
Papa didn't like you at all
But I was crazy 'bout you, baby!
Do you remember the reason why we married in the Fall?
To rent this little nest, and get a bit of rest!
Well, here we are, just about the same
Gawky little fellow, dizzy little dame
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
Much to much in love to say good-night
Good-night!

I'd Love To Build A Love-Nest For You
I'd Love To Build A Love-Nest For You
Composer(s): W.R. Williams
I was blue till I met you for everything was wrong
Now the world seems wonderful and gaily rolls along
And I'm mighty happy since you came my way
Glad I met you, can't forget you, and I'm here to say
Our lovenest will be the best for rest that can be found
Just like castles in the air but built right on the ground
Roses in the garden for our happiness
Birds a singing, bells a ringing, if you'll just say yes
You are my star and little rainbow
Just like the sunshine from above
With your winning smile, you make things worth while
just say "yes," for I'll confess 'twill complete our happiness
For you are the star that leads to Love-land
You're the sweetest girl I ever knew
And you make me forget every other girl I've met
I'd love to build a love nest for you

Killer Queen
Killer Queen
Composer(s): Freddie Mercury
Performer(s): Queen;
and various other artists
She keeps Moet et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Kruschev and Kennedy
At anytime an invitation
You can't decline
Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
(chorus)
She's a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you're that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise
(chorus)
Drop of a hat she's as willing as
Playful as a pussy cat
Then momentarily out of action
Temporarily out of gas
To absolutely drive you wild, wild..
She's all out to get you
(chorus)
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
You wanna try...

When I came in you were out and gone

Well I waited up till after two, then I went downtown to look for you
So how's about tellin' me where you were at
Porter:
Well me and the boys stopped off for a drink or two
(Dolly: Now ain't you a pretty thang)
Well we got to drinkin' and I guess the time just flew

But that's awful late for you to be out and gone
Dolly:
Now look who's talkin' bout 'bein' late, I wasn't about to sit and wait
While you were out there with it ain't no tellin' who
Both:

We can straighten this out, it will take time
Two sides to every story
You tell yours and I'll tell mine
There's always two sides to every story
We can straighten this out, it will take time

All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land

Killing Me Softly With His Song
Killing Me Softly With His Song
Composer(s): Charles Fox; Norman Gimble
Performer(s): Roberta Flack;
and various other artists
Strumming my pain with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song
killing me softly with his song
telling my whole life with his words
killing me softly with his song
I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him to listen for a while
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on
He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair
and then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there
But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong

Two Ships That Passed In The Moonlight
Two Ships That Passed In The Moonlight
Performer(s): Michael Johnson
He was chasing fame and fortune, glory bound
He was too much in a hurry to slow down
And she was running from some devils that she had inside of her
I'd like to say it was romantic but the truth is that they were
Two ships that passed in the moonlight
Two stars that crossed around midnight
Without a chance either one might ever turn back
Two ships that passed in the moonlight
Two hearts that flashed on a hot night
And then sailed on till they lost sight
And never looked back
There the story might have ended but you see
On that cross was born a child and that child was me
And darling now I must be going even though this might be love
I'd like to stay a little longer but I'm just a product of
Two ships that passed in the moonlight
Two stars that crossed around midnight
Without a chance either one might ever turn back
Two ships that passed in the moonlight
Two hearts that flashed on a hot night
And then sailed on till they lost sight
And never looked back

I'd like to teach the world to sing (Sing with me)
In perfect harmony (Perfect harmony)
I'd like to buy the world a Coke
And keep it company (That's the real thing)
I'd like to teach the world to sing
(What the world wants today)
In perfect harmony (Perfect harmony)
And I'd like to buy the world a Coke

Kind Hearted Woman
Kind Hearted Woman
Composer(s): Robert Johnson
Performer(s): Muddy Waters;
and various other artists
I've got a kind hearted woman
she studies evil all the time
I've got a kind hearted woman
she studies evil all the time
You would do to quit me just to have it on your mind
I've got a kind hearted woman, do anything in this world for me
I've got a kind hearted woman, do anything in this world for me
But these evil hearted women, Lord, and they will not let me be
Now it ain't but one thing makes Mr. Clapton drink
I swear about how you treat me baby, I begin to think
Oh baby, my life don't feel the same
It breaks my heart when you call Mr. So-and-So's name
She's a kind hearted woman, she studies evil all the time
She's a kind hearted woman, she studies evil all the time
You're best to quit me baby as just to have it on your mind

Two Purple Shadows
Two Purple Shadows
Composer(s): Dick Sanford - Sammy Mysels
Performer(s): Bobby Vinton; Jerry Vale; Franklin Bruno
Two purple shadows on the snow
Shone from her window to the street below
And I was so surprised, I stood there hypnotized
I never realized I loved her so
Two purple shadows on the snow
So close together, they were kissing, I know
That date she had with me, she broke so easily
That it was plain to see, I'd better go
What would you do in my place
What would you do
What would you do in my case
If it happened to you
The wind blew the fire from my heart
Somehow I found the courage to depart
And as I tore up two tickets for a show
They turned to two purple shadows on the snow
What would you do in my place
What would you do
What would you do in my case
If it happened to you
The wind blew the fire from my heart
Somehow I found the courage to depart
And as I tore up two tickets for a show
They turned to two purple shadows on the snow

I'd Like To Know What Happened To Mary
I'd Like To Know What Happened To Mary
Composer(s): Brandon Walsh; Ernest Breuer
Simple Mary Brown, left her own home town
For to see the Great White Way
She was sweet and shy when she said "good-bye"
And she came back home to day
At the railroad station, all the population waited for the two fifteen
Her stylish dressing, had the rubes all guessing
For they didn't know their village queen
Said Mary's Ma, to Mary's Pa
Mary's Turkey Trots and her new Gavottes
Had her home town dancing mad
But the old barn dance, didn't have a chance
With the loving Tango fad
Hesitation was the big sensation
They all tried to do it night and day
The crops were flopping while the rubes were hopping
To some brand new dance from gay Broadway
Said Mary's Pa, to Mary's Ma
"I'd like to know what happened to Mary
Since she went to New York Town
It surely don't seem like the same old Mary
Who dressed in a ging ham gown
She came back wearing seven kinds of hair
Does the Tango to the Maiden's Pray'r
I'd like to know what happened to Mary
Since Mary left the old home town"

When your baby don't love you

When you know she's been untrue

Girl, I still love you
I'll always love you
Anyway, anyway, anyway
Kind of a drag
When your baby says goodbye
Kind of a drag
When you feel like you want to cry
Girl, even though you make me feel blue
I still love you
I'll always love you
Anyway, Anyway, Anyway
Oh, listen to what I've gotta say
Girl, I still love you
I'll always love you
Anyway, anyway, anyway

I'd Do It All Over Again
I'd Do It All Over Again
Composer(s): W. Holyfield; B. McDill
Performer(s): Crystal Gayle
Was I right, was I wrong?
A little too weak, a little too strong?
Was it him, was it me?
Oh, I guess I'll never know
Well, you're up then you're down
Oh, but the world keeps turnin' around
Ain't it hard to find
Somethin' to hang on to?
But I know that my heart will mend
And I know that I'll smile again
I'll get back on my feet and then
I'll do it all over again
Some you lose, some you win
They say that's the way it's always been
First you laugh, then you cry
Oh, but I guess that's life
So you live and you learn
And never look back at the bridges you burned
And you change somehow
Oh, I'm a little bit wiser now
But I know that my heart will mend
And I know that I'll smile again
I'll get back on my feet and then
I'll do it all over again
But I know that my heart will mend
And I know that I'll smile again
I'll get back on my feet and then
I'll do it all over again
