Se Demora


Se Demora
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Me devora esta situación
me deplora tanta incomprensión
me acalora cada imposición
violenta
que posterga siempre mi ilusión
sedienta

No hay idioma para la verdad
no hay aroma como la amistad
Qué paloma sobre mi ciudad
planea
y se asoma para que mi edad
la crea

Se demora el trillo que va al cielo
se demora el día de mi vuelo
y yo me impaciento
y me sueño al viento

Se demora el pájaro cantor
se demora el verdadero amor
se demora
se demora
pero no olvidaré que hay aurora.

Me devora me deplora
me acalora se demora
mas hay aurora
mas hay

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town/Santa Man


Santa Claus Is Coming To Town/Santa Man Haven Gillespie; J. Fred Coots; Alan Paul Performer(s): The Manhattan Transfer



You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He's makin' a list
Checkin' it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake!

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town...to town

Over there
Santa Claus is comin' so be prepared
Don't you cry or worry
Go and get your stocking hung
Every little thing to do is done
Santa's list of toys is gone, the tree the cue
And don't forget to brush every little one
'Cause soon as your sleepin'
Teeth police will come checkin'
To see if every pearl is glistenin'
Don't be missin' any spot
Or they'll tattle-tale
And Santa he won't come

You're dealin' with toyland springs
When he brings the season joy
With toys and things
But if you go dancin'
Samba through the night
Be warned, beware
Or else you'll scare the hair off of Rudolph
And he'll fly from here
That's a fact and then you'll cry and rave
And wish that you'd behaved
So heed this warning
Before morning comes upon you
Go to sleep and goodnight!

All the boys and girls dream of Toyland
Wish that the snowman soon would play
And they are sure to get their wishes met
When they hear the words we say...

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town
To town!
To town!
Look out old Santa is back - yeah!

Se Contenter D'ici Bas


Se Contenter D'ici Bas
Composer(s): Carla Bruni; Julien Clerc; Hervé Brault
Performer(s): Julien Clerc



Ça ne se sait pas
Ça ne s'attend pas
Parfois même c'est malgré soi
Ça s'emmêle à nous
Ça se mêle de tout
Ça peut rendre comme fou
Ça ne s'invente pas
Ça ne se ment pas
Ça ne se contrefait pas
Ça ne se vole pas
Ça ne se veut pas
Ça se laisse venir comme ça

Et s'il ne restait que ça
Si on ne faisait plus que ça
Se contenter d'ici-bas
Et s'il ne restait que ça
S'il n'y avait rien au-delà
Etre heureux maintenant et là

Ça ne s'oublie pas
Ça s'installe en soi
Ça se suffit d'une fois
Ça ne demande pas
Ni même pourquoi
Car ça ne s'explique pas
Ça n'se regrette pas
Ça n'se recherche pas
Ça n's'abandonne pas
Ça n'se retient pas
Ça se frôle du doigt
Ça s'en va et c'est comme ça

Et s'il ne restait que ça
Si on ne faisait plus que ça
Se contenter d'ici-bas
Et s'il ne restait que ça
S'il n'y avait rien au-delà
Etre heureux maintenant et là

Et s'il ne restait que ça
Si nous n'avions pas le choix
Et si le ciel se trouvait là
S'il n'y avait rien au-delà
Si l'enfer n'existait pas

Et s'il ne restait que ça
Si nos vies se vivaient là
Si tout n'était rien que ça
Et s'il ne restait que ça
Si la réponse était là
Se contenter d'ici-bas

Scusami


Scusami
Composer(s): O. Ferrari; G. Malgoni; A. Perrone
Performer(s): Dalida; Raymond Lefevre & His Orch.



Oublie ta peine dans mes bras puisqu'elle te vient de moi
Un peu d'amour l'effacera
Scusami, scusami encore
Mon seul bonheur est fait de toi et tu le sais déjà
Mais si j'ai fait pleurer ta joie
Scusami pardonne-moi

Parle-moi j'ai besoin d'écouter ta voix
Si tu savais ce que j'ai de regret

Oublie les jours oublie les heures
Et vient m'ouvrir ton cœur
Puisque aujourd'hui l'amour là
Scusami pardonne-moi

Je donnerai le monde
Pour voir tes yeux sourire une seconde
Et pour que tu répondes à ma prière
Je donnerai le ciel et sa lumière

Oublie ta peine dans mes bras puisqu' elle te vient de moi
Un peu d'amour l'effacera
Scusami, scusami encore
Mon seul bonheur est fait de toi et tu le sais déjà
Mais si j'ai fait pleurer ta joie
Scusami pardonne-moi

Parle-moi j'ai besoin d'écouter ta voix
Le ciel est bleu au soleil de tes yeux

Oublie ta peine dans mes mains n'attendons pas demain
Puisque aujourd'hui l'amour est là
Scusami pardonne-moi
Scusami pardonne-moi

Screw You, We're From Texas


Screw You, We're From Texas
Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard



I got on my cowboy boots, jeans
And Hawaiian shirt, mirrored sunglasses
And a mobile phone
I guess I look like some Port Aransas
Dope dealer that's out on bail
Just trying to get home
Well I ain't in jail and I got me a guitar
Got a little band that's hotter than a rocket
Sometimes we're sloppy
We're always loud, tonight we're just ornery
And locked in the pocket

So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas baby, so screw you

Now I love the USA
And the other states
Ahh, they're OK
Texas is the place I wanna be
And I don't care if I ever go to Delaware anyway
Cause we got Stubbs, and Gruene Hall and Antone's, and John T's
Country Store
We've got Willie and Jacky Jack, Robert Earl, Pat, Cory, Charlie and me
And so many more

So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you

Sing it with me
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you!

Now Texas has gotten a bad reputation
Because of what happened in Dallas and Waco
And our corporations well they are corrupt
And the politicians are swindlers and loco
But when it comes to music my friend
I believe these words are as true as St. John the Revelator's
Our Mr. Vaughan was the best that there ever was
And no band was cooler than the 13th Floor Elevators

So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you!

Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas Screw you

Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas Screw you

We're from Texas Screw you...

Santa Claus (I Still Believe In You)


Santa Claus (I Still Believe In You)
Composer(s): Greg Fowler; Linda Gentry;
Teddy Gentry; John Jarrard; Randy Owen
Performer(s): Alabama


You always come around this time of year
With your big ol' bag that's full of Christmas cheer
And when it starts to snow the little boys and girls all know
Soon they'll hear the sounds of your reindeer

Now sometimes grownups grow up to believe
That you don't really come on Christmas Eve
But I don't think that's true 'cause I know I've seen you
In sparking little eyes around the tree

Oh Santa Claus, I still believe in you
There's still a kid inside of me that still believes you're true
Oh Santa Claus, the kids are tucked in tight
The hour has arrived, it's time to play ol' Santa Clause tonight

Well I don't see how anybody could ever doubt that there really is a Santa Clause
Especially if they've ever seen a little boy who's just got his very first bike
Or if they've ever seen a little girl with her arms wrapped around her baby doll so tight
And both of 'em waking up Mama and Daddy way before daylight
And Grandma and Grandpa just lookin' young and lovin' life
'Cause they know that their grandkids gonna be alright
And Mama and Daddy, they'll be waitin' up to answer ol' Santa's call
'Cause tonight they're not worried about payin' bills
Lord, they're just lovin' it all!

Oh Santa Claus, I still believe in you
There's still a kid in all of us that still believes you're true
Oh Santa Claus, the kids are sleepin' tight
We're turnin' out the lights and I'll be waiting up for you tonight

Oh Santa Claus, the kids are tucked in tight
Santa Claus, turnin' out the lights
Oh Santa Claus, ummmmmmmmmmmm
I still believe in you

Santa Can't Stay


Santa Can't Stay
Composer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Performer(s): Dwight Yoakam


Cold tears fall from his eyes
As he turns into the night and walks away
Lucille runs outside
Just to see if there might be a sleigh
Little Bobby stares down
At the plate where cookies still lay
And tries to understand
Why momma said Santa can't stay

Momma said Santa can't stay
Said she told him that twice yesterday
Then a car just like Dad's
Pulled out and drove away
After momma said Santa couldn't stay

They both heard him coming
Saw Mom run down the hall and holler wait
Doug you're drunk don't come inside
I'm not joking I've had all this I can take
He threw a present really hard
That almost hit Mom's new boyfriend Ray
And yelled ho-ho lucky for you she's here
And said that Santa can't stay

Momma said Santa can't stay
Said she told him that twice yesterday
Then a car just like Dad's
Pulled out and drove away
After momma said Santa couldn't stay

Io l'incontrai ad un cocktail
Lui mi chiese Mademoiselle
Che cosa fa per vivere
E cosi' riposi allor
'Io vendo pere e mele' e poi scoubidou bi ou a
Pere mele e poi scoubidou bi ou a
Scoubidou bi ou
Danzammo insieme al cabaret
E fino all'alba delle tre
Parlando sempre con calor di frutta e dell'amor
Con lui assai bene mi trovai
Ed in casa mi installai
Ma pranzo cena e a desinar gli davo da mangiar
La pere le mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a
Pere mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a scoubidou bi ou
Qualunque cosa a esagerar
Finirebbe per stancar
Le frutta rendon con l'amor più deboli di cuor
Mi disse alfine di partir
Ed io finsi di svenir
Ma lui grido' non son per me i tipi come te
La pere le mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a
Pere mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a scoubidou bi ou
scoubidou bi ou a scoubidou bi ou a
Adamo ed Eva al mondo inter
Han svelato già il mister
E meglio sempre soli star piuttosto che mangiar
La pere le mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a
Pere mele e dei scoubidou bi ou a scoubidou bi ou a
Scoubidou bi ou a scoubidou bi ou a

(Santa, bring my Baby back to me)
(Santa, bring my Baby back to me)

I don't need a lot of presents
To make my Christmas bright
I just need my baby's arms
Wound around me tight
Uh-ho, Santa hear my plea
Santa bring my baby back to me

(Santa, bring my Baby back to me)

The Christmas tree is ready
The candles all aglow
But with my Baby far away
What good is mistletoe
Uh-ho, Santa, hear my plea
Santa bring my baby back to me

(Santa, bring my Baby back to me)

Please make these reindeer hurry
Well the time is drawing near
It sure won't seem like Christmas
Unless my Baby's here
Don't fill my sock with candy
Or no bright and shiny toy
You wanna make me happy
And fill my heart with joy
Then Santa, hear my plea
Santa bring my baby back to me

(Santa, bring my Baby back to me)

Please make these reindeer hurry
Well the time is drawing near
It sure won't seem like Christmas
Unless my Baby's here
Don't you fill my sock with candy
Or no bright and shiny toy
You wanna make me happy and fill my heart with joy
Then Santa, hear my plea
Santa bring my baby back to me

Am rond-point sprach ein mann mich an
Als ich mein Büro verliess
Und fragt ob ich ihm sagen kann
Was isst man in Paris

Am liebsten Äpfel und Birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a
Äpfel Äpfel birnen birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a scoubidoubidou

Der Vorschlag schien ihm originell
Und hat ihn so interessiert
Dass er mich darauf ganz formell
Am abend ausgeführt

In einem netten restaurant
Hat er mein menü erprobt
Das er ganz ausgezeichnet fand
Und nun begeistert lobt

Wie schön sind Äpfel und Birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a
Äpfel Äpfel Birnen Birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a scoubidoubidou

Und weil es ihm so herrlich schmeckt
Macht er täglich diese kur
Bis er dann voller schreck entdeckt
Es schadet der figur

Es sei ja ab und zu ganz schön
Wenn man süss früchte hat
Doch müsse er mir eingestehn
Auch früchte machen satt

Nicht immer Äpfel und Birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a
Äpfel Äpfel Birnen Birnen
Und dann scoubidoubidou-a
Scoubidoubidou-a, scoubidoubidou-a

Santa Baby Composer(s): Joan Javits; Tony Springer; Philip Springer First release by: Eartha Kitt - 1953 Covered by multiple other artists



Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight

Give me lovin', baby

Paris (Bernard Lavilliers)


Paris
Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



J'adore le ciel de Paris
J'adore cette fille de bandit
Qui se balade en guêpière
Quand je retourne en enfer

Mon capital de bas noirs
Tu changes de fille tous les soirs
Et dans les bulles de cristal
Me balances les fleurs du mal

Tu me manques terriblement
Tu me manques passionnément
Tu me manques, c'est fascinant
Paris, t'es si belle encore
Paris, tu changes de décor
Paris, tu ressembles à personne

Ma capitale de douleur
Vienne la nuit, sonne l'heure
Un rouge baiser, un miroir
Tout redevient provisoire

Paris, t'as des yeux gris-bleus
T'es plutôt brune à mes yeux
Entre Desnos et Prévert
Tu choisis Apollinaire

Tu me manques terriblement
Tu me manques passionnément
Tu me manques, c'est fascinant
Paris, t'es si belle encore
Paris, tu changes de décor
Paris, tu ressembles à personne

Je t'aime, ma fille de faubourg
Avec tes chansons d'amour
Je t'aime, vipère du trottoir
Plumant le micheton dans le noir

Mon ange exterminateur
T'es dure avec le malheur
Tu fais de cadeaux à personne
Et là, Paris, tu déconnes

Tu me manques terriblement
Tu me manques passionnément
Tu me manques, c'est fascinant
Paris, t'es si belle encore
Paris, tu changes de décor
Paris, tu ressembles à personne

Paris, j'veux pas qu'on t'épouse
Reste infidèle et jalouse
Paris, tu ressembles à personne

Santa's On His Way


Santa's On His Way
Composer(s): Dave Anthony; Bill Phillips
Performer(s): George Strait;
Kitty Wells; Bob Wills


Christmas is always my favorite time of year
Sleighbell’s ringin’ jingle lingin’
Christmas time is near
Can’t wait to build a snowman
And play outside all day
Nothing could be better
I gotta write a letter
Santa’s on his way

Christmas time is always
A special time of year
A time for joy and happiness
And lots of Christmas cheer

Can’t wait to decorate the tree
That we brought home today
Nothin’ could be better
I gotta write a letter
Santa’s on his way

Christmas time is always
A special time of year
A time for joy and happiness
And lots of Christmas cheer

So have a very Merry Christmas
And a jolly happy day
Nothin’ could be better
I gotta write a letter
Santa’s on his way

Santa’s on his way
Santa’s on his way

Scorn Not His Simplicity


Scorn Not His Simplicity
Composer(s): Phil Coulter; Bill Martin
Performer(s): Phil Coulter
and multiple other artists



See the child
With the golden hair
Yet eyes that show the emptiness inside
Do we know
Can we understand just how he feels
Or have we really tried

See him now
As he stands alone
And watches children play a children's game
Simple child
He looks almost like the others
Yet they know he's not the same

Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh no

See him stare
Not recognizing the kind face
That only yesterday he loved
The loving face
Of a mother who can't understand what she's been guilty of

How she cried, tears of happiness
the day the doctor told her it's a boy
Now she cries tears of helplessness
and thinks of all the things he can't enjoy

Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh no

Only he knows how to face the future hopefully
Surrounded by despair
He won't ask for your pity or your sympathy
But surely you should care

Scorn not his simplicity
But rather try to love him all the more
Scorn not his simplicity
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
