She Was Born To Be My Unicorn
She Was Born To Be My Unicorn
Composer(s): Marc Bolan
Performer(s): T. Rex
She was born to be my Unicorn
Robed head of ferns
Cat child tutored by the learned
Darkly ghostish host
Haggard vizier of the moats
Seeks the sandled shores of Gods
Baby of the moors
The night-mare's mauve mashed mind
Sights the visions of the blinds
Shoreside stream of steam
Cooking kings in cream of scream
Jackdaw winter head
Cleans his chalcedony bed
A silken word of kind
Was returned from Nijinsky Hind
Giant of Inca hill
Loosed his boar to gorely kill
The dancing one horned waife
In doublet of puffin-bill
The beast in feast of sound
Kittened lamb on God's ground
Ridden by the born of horn
Jigged like a muse on life's lawn

She Wandered Through The Garden Fence
She Wandered Through The Garden Fence
Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid
Performer(s): Procol Harum
She wandered through the garden fence
and said 'I've brought at great expense
a potion guaranteed to bring
relief from all your suffering'
And though I said 'You don't exist'
she grasped me firmly by the wrist
and threw me down upon my back
and strapped me to her torture rack
And, without further argument
I found my mind was also bent
upon a course so devious
it only made my torment worse
She said, 'I see you cannot speak
is it your voice that is too weak?
Is it your tongue that is to blame?
Maybe you cannot speak for shame
Or has your brain been idle too
and now it will not think for you?'
I hastened to make my reply
but found that I could only lie
And like a fool I believed myself
and thought I was somebody else
But she could see what I was then
and left me on my own again

She Thinks That She'll Marry
She Thinks That She'll Marry
Composer(s): Judy Rodman; Duane Orender
Performer(s): Judy Rodman
He keeps her in diamonds, he brightens her days
He flies her in style to the cities he plays
But she's not aware that in every town
Others warm to his favours when she's not around
He took her to Paris, he took her to Spain
He took her for granted, wouldn't give her his name
She lives all alone in a house on a hill
An' thinks that she'll marry, but she never will
He told her that someday, he'd make her his own
They'd take a vacation together in Rome
Then she spoke these words, though they tore her apart:
"I'm tired of you playing these games with my heart"
"Oh, I've given you the best years of my life
You've given nothin', but maybe some lies
I've lived all alone in a house on a hill
Thinkin' we'd marry, but we never will"
So time brought it's wisdom, now clearly she sees
She's learned to be happy an' she loves bein' free
That he longs to hold her an' make her his wife
'Cause there was no happiness left in his life
She lives all alone in a house on a hill
With good friends an' good times, her life is filled
In his lonely mansion, he longs for her still
An' he thinks that she'll marry, but she never will
No, she never will

Quinta Del Sordo
Quinta Del Sordo
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Soñando que soñaba me encontré
al lado de un extraño personaje
un viejo entre el Capricho y el Desastre
fundido a una paleta y a un pincel
Pintaba, ensimismado, en la pared
un fresco con los locos más infames
revueltos en un sórdido aquelarre
o acaso un esperpéntico burdel
Quinta del sordo
casa de locos
el Sueño de la Razón
produce monstruos
En medio de la insólita reunión
batíase el de la Triste Figura
en duelo contra un órgano que Schumann
tocaba con la oreja de Van Gogh
Bailaba junto al fuego Maldoror
un vals con Luis II de Baviera
debajo de los pétalos que Ofelia
regaba desde un éxtasis de Artaud
Quinta del sordo
casa de locos
el Sueño de la Razón
produce montruos
Sufría una iluminación Rimbaud
y en ella se le aparecía Hamlet
montado a lomos del Marqués de Sade
tirado por Calígula y Nerón
Atada por el Capitán Ahab
dejábase violar Juana la Loca
por Hölderlin y Nietzche en plena euforia
un poco más allá del bien y el mal
Quinta del sordo
casa de locos
el Sueño de la Razón
produce monstruos
Transido por aquella bacanal
de reyes, criminales y poetas
caí desvanecido en aquella quimera
del otro lado de la realidad
De pronto aquella orgía se esfumó
y al despertar me vi mirando a Goya
dormido bajo el Reino de las Sombras
del sueño que soñaba mi razón
Quinta del sordo
casa de locos
el Sueño de la Razón
produce monstruos

She Thinks I Still Care
She Thinks I Still Care
Composer(s): Dickey Lee
First release by: George Jones - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists
Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I dialled her number by mistake today
She thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the memory of her lingers everywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be,
She thinks I still care
Oh if she's happy thinkin' I still need her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
Oh how could she ever be so foolish
And where would she get such an idea?
Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I saw her, then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care
She thinks I still caaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaare

Quinto Patio
Composer(s): Luis Arcaraz; M. Molina Montes
Performer(s): Javier Solis;
and various other artists
Por vivir en quinto patio
desprecian mis besos
un cariño verdadero
sin mentiras, ni maldad
El amor cuando es sincero
se encuentra lo mismo
en las torres de un castillo
que en humilde vecindad
Nada me importa
que critiquen la humildad de mi cariño
el dinero no es la vida
es tan sólo vanidad
Y aunque ahora no me quieras
yo sé que algún día
me darás con tu cariño
toda la felicidad
Nada me importa
que critiquen la humildad de mi cariño
el dinero no es la vida
es tan sólo vanidad
Y aunque ahora no me quieras
yo sé que algún día
me darás con tu cariño
toda la felicidad

Quisiera
Quisiera
Composer(s): R. de León; M. Baratas; A. Areta
Performer(s): Raphael
En el jardin deshabitado
Sin el calor de tu presencia
El viento gris llora a mi lado
La melodia de tu ausencia
Quisiera sentir de nuevo la alegria
De ver tus ojos noche y dia
Apasionados por la espera
Quisiera estar presente entre tus cosas
Suspiros, pajaros y rosas
En tu jardin y en primavera
Cambiar presente por pasado
Y darte en todo la razon
Y ver mi amor alborotado
Mi solitario corazon
Quisiera contar contigo una por una
Todas las manchas de la luna
Como soliamos hacer
Quisiera volver de nuevo a tu querer

Maria's Kind
Maria's Kind
(Adapted from: Mary's Boy Child - 1956)
(Danish Version: Der Var Engang En Julenat - 1957)
Composer(s): Jester Hairston; Will Ferdy; Ernst van Altena
Performer(s): Jo Leemans - 1969
and multiple other artists
Heel lang geleden in Bethlehem
Zoals de Bijbel zegt
Werd Maria’s kind daar in een kribbe neergelegd
Luister toe wat God u zegt
Door een engelenstem
Opdat de mens voor eeuwig leve
Daarom komt Jezus voor
Hoor nu komt de nieuwe Koning
Zong een engelenkoor
Opdat de mens vooreeuwig leve
Daar komt Jezus
Daar hielden herders in de buurt
Bij hun schaapjes trouw de wacht
Zij zagen plots een nieuwe ster
Schitteren in de nacht
Toen kwam Jozef en Maria
Ook naar Bethlehem
Maar er was in heel de stad
Geen enkele plaats voor hen
Hoor nu komt de nieuwe Koning
Zong een engelenkoor
Opdat de mens vooreeuwig leve
Daar komt Jezus
En eindelijk vonden zij een stal
Waar het eenzaam was en stil
Daar werd Maria’s kind gelegd
In een kribbe hard en kil
Heel lang geeden in Bethlehem
Zoals de Bijbel zegt
Werd Maria’s kind daar in een kribbe gelegd

Quisiera ser el viento

la voz de los lamentos
que brotan de la humanidad

She Shall Have Music
She Shall Have Music
Composer(s): Al Goodhart; Al Hoffman; Maurice Sigler
Performer(s): Jack Hylton
and multiple other artists
She shall have music wherever she goes
With plenty of rhythm to tickle her toes
Wherever she goes, she shall have music
She shall have songbirds to sing her to sleep
With plenty of dream birds to count up her sheep
Awake or asleep, she shall have music
And while she's dreaming
I'll write a dream song
And I'll be hoping that
It will be our theme song
She shall have church bells to ring out in rhyme
So we can go marching in honeymoon time
She shall have music wherever she goes

Quit Hollerin' At Me
Quit Hollerin' At Me
Composer(s): John Prine; Gary Nicholson
Performer(s): John Prine
I don't want your big French Fry
I don't want your car
I don't want to buy no soap
From no washed-up movie star
You are so much louder
Than the show I wanna hear
With your sugarless gum
Gee, but I'm dumb
Non-alcoholic beer
It's enough to make a grown man
Blow up his own TV
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
I heard you the first time
I heard myself say
Seems like the little woman
Is getting bigger every day
You don't have to tell the neighbors
A little silence ain't no sin
They already think my name is
Where in the hell you been?
Louder, louder, louder, louder, louder
Constantly
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Whoa oh whoa oh
Sweet Serenity
Whoa oh whoa oh
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Ain't it great at the end of the day
When there ain't no sound around
Just me and the fence post
Staring each other down
Nothing but a big bunch of nothing
Driving me insane
Cause there ain't no voice that's louder
Than the one inside my brain
Hey you go on
Go on and let me be
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Whoa oh whoa oh
Sweet Serenity
Whoa oh whoa oh
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me
Quit hollerin' at me

She Sang Amazing Grace
She Sang Amazing Grace
Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis
I was hard to handle the day we said, I do
She was just like some fine wine
And I was old home brew
I took her to the smoky joints
Where she was out of place
While I played those old honky tonk songs
She sang Amazing Grace
But somehow hymns and honky tonks
Don't go together long
But I kept on raising hell
And she kept holding on
I'm Faded Love and Cheating Heart
And she's still silk and lace
While I played those honky tonk songs
She sings Amazing Grace
I left for a drinking night
Found at any old bar
I'll dance and I'll flirt
But it's alright, cause she knows where we are
She's Sunday morning, Sunday school
While I'm at home sleeping late
Dreaming of those old honky tonk songs
While she sings Amazing Grace
But somehow hymns and the honky tonks
Don't go together long
But I kept on raising hell
And she kept holding on
I'm Faded Love and Cheating Heart
And she's still silk and lace
While I play those honky tonk songs
She sings Amazing Grace

Quite Rightly So
Quite Rightly So
Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid
Performer(s): Procol Harum
For you (whose eyes were opened wide
whilst mine refused to see)
I'm sore in need of saving grace
Be kind and humour me
I'm lost amidst a sea of wheat
Where people speak but seldom meet
And grief and laughter, strange but true
Although they die, they seldom cry
An ode by any other name I know might read more sweet
Perhaps the sun will never shine upon my field of wheat
But still in closing, let me say
For those too sick, too sick to see
Though nothing shows, yes, someone knows
I wish that one was me

She Never Spoke Spanish To Me
She Never Spoke Spanish To Me
Composer(s): Butch Hancock
First release by: Joe Ely - 1977
Covered by:
Texas Tornados - 1990
Bill and Bonnie Hearne - 2000
I met her in old Mexico
She would live in sad and young
This smokey room where no one could see
Her favorite poets all agree
Spanish is a lovin' tongue
But she never spoke Spanish to me
She was born in Monterey
And all the Christmas songs were sung
Padres knew what she would grow up to be
Saints and sinners all agree
Spanish is a lovin' tongue
But she never spoke Spanish to me
Like a lion screamin' in the jungle low
She'd never fool with things she couldn't see
She spoke to all the shadows in her bungalow
But she never spoke Spanish to me
She siad if you're from Texas, so
Where's your boots and where's your gun
Well, I got guns that no one can see
Well, after that we both agreed
Spanish is a lovin' tongue
But she never spoke Spanish to me
Well, she never spoke Spanish to me

Quits
Quits
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Bill Anderson
We couldn't call it love
'cause it really wasn't love anymore
Yet we couldn't call it hate cause there's no way to hate
Someone you've loved so much before
We couldn't call it livin' cause it wasn't still alive
We couldn't call it dead cause it refused to die
We ran out of anything to call it so we called it quits
Quits quits we called it quits it sounds like the easy way out but oh when it hits
The longer you live with someone you can't live with the harder it gets
We called it magic then we called it tragic finally we called it quits
It's always been harder to fall out of love than fall in
I don't know where I'm goin' but I doubt if I'll ever forget where I've been
We couldn't call it happy though it was for a while
We couldn't call it sad cause it taught us both to smile
For luck for a better word to call it we called it quits
Quits quits we called it quits it sounds like the easy way out but oh when it hits
The longer you live with someone you can't live with the harder it gets
We called it lovely then we called it lonely finally we called it quits
We called it magic then we called it tragic finally we called it quits
