Ton Nom (Fud Leclerc)


Ton Nom
First performance by: Fud Leclerc - 1962



Ton nom qui joue avec mon nom
Pour lui donner le mien
Et effacer le lien
Ta joie qui chante avec ma joie
Pour qu'ells se fondent ensemble
Ton coeur qui joue avec mon coeur
À grands coups de bonheur
De bonheur éperdu
Et puis la main qui garde la mienne
Et me guide dans l'ombre
Jusqu'au soleil

Nous n'avons pas besion
Des amours compliquées
Des amants de cinéma
Nous n'avons pas besoin
De nous faire du ciné
Le bonheur c'est lorsque le vois...

Ton nom qui joue avec mon nom
Pour lui donner le mien
Et effacer le lien
Ta joie qui chante avec ma joie
Pour qu'elles se fondent ensemble
Ton coeur qui joue avec mon coeur
À grands coups de bonheur
De bonheur éperdu
Et puis la main qui garde la mienne
Et me guide dans l'ombre
Jusqu'au soleil

Jusqu'au soleil

Je Ne Suis Pas Guéri De Mes Années D'enfance


Je Ne Suis Pas Guéri De Mes Années D'enfance
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Je ne suis pas guéri de mes années d'enfance
Qui viennent me hanter chaque jour un peu plus
Quand revivent en moi des voix qui se sont tues
Et me serrent la gorge et blessent mes silences

Je ne suis pas guéri de mes années d'enfance
Et je n'ai pas trouvé de remède à ce mal
Dont ma mémoire exsangue est le lit d'hôpital
Sur lequel mon passé cherche sa survivance

Et je perçois au coeur le poignard de l'absence
Revoyant mes parents en me tenant la main
Tous les hommes sont nés pour rester orphelins
Hier à peine est vécu, que déjà c'est demain

Je ne suis pas guéri de mes années d'enfance
Au jardin de mon coeur il est des coins secrets
Dont les roses d'hier ne se fanent jamais
Où l'ai est si doux que j'y prends mes vacances

J'ai le mal du passé, mal du temps qui avance
Les chemins de ma vie sont jalonnés de croix
Et lorsque je regarde ému derrière moi
Les images se figent et s'estompent parfois

Je ne suis pas guéri de mes années d'enfance
D'ailleurs je le pourrais que je ne le veux pas
Tant j'aime, les yeux clos, revenir sur mes pas
Et remonter le cours fou de mon existence
Jusqu'aux années d'enfance

Silver Dagger


Silver Dagger
Composer(s): Traditional; Joan Baez
Performer(s): Joan Baez
and multiple other artists



Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
She's sleeping here right by my side
And in her right hand a silver dagger
She says that I can't be your bride

All men are false, says my mother
They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies
The very next evening, they'll court another
Leave you alone to pine and sigh

My daddy is a handsome devil
He's got a chain five miles long
And on every link a heart does dangle
Of another maid he's loved and wronged

Go court another tender maiden
And hope that she will be your wife
For I've been warned, and I've decided
To sleep alone all of my life

Pas De Chance


Pas De Chance
Composer(s): Francis Lopez; Raymond Vincy
Performer(s): André Bourvil



Dès ma naissance
Dans l'existence
Je n'ai jamais été gâté

Je me souviens même
Que à mon baptême
Marraine m'a laissé tomber

Et j'ai failli me noyer tout petiot
Au fond des fonds baptismaux

En premier communiant
J'étais très élégant
Mais j'avais mal au dents
Pas d'chance

Si bien que sur mon piano
Il y a toujours cette photo
Où j'ai l'air d'un idiot
Pas d'chance

A mon certificat
J'ai copié sur un gars
qui se trompait déjà
Pas d'chance

Plus tard au régiment
J'ai fait le mur en sautant
Sur le dos de l'Adjudant
Pas d'chance

Au ministère
Comme secrétaire
Le jour où j'ai débuté
Pas très à l'aise
J'offris une chaise
A la femme du Député

C'était la chaise qui avait un pied cassé
C'est moi que l'on a remplacé

On me pris par faveur
Comme garçon d'ascenseur
Mais cela me donnait mal au cœur
Pas d'chance

Comme chauffeur de taxi
J'aurais bien réussi
Mais j'étais trop poli
Pas d'chance

Des malheurs de ma vie
J'ai fait une poésie
Mais tout le monde en a rit
Pas d'chance

Mes peintures sans efforts
Se vendront à prix d'or
Mais quand je serai mort
Pas d'chance

Au fond je me plains comme cela
Puis je devrais être heureux
Parce que je suis amoureux
Mais seulement, il faudrait l'être à deux
Pas d'chance

Oh, puis après tout
Quand on a tout raté
A quoi bon insister
Il n'y a plus que à se répéter
Pas d'chance

Je m'en fiche pas mal, moi

Comme je suis poète
Parfois dans ma tête
J'imagine le train du bonheur
Qui passe à toute vapeur

Avec ses voyageurs qui dansent
Seulement ce petit train si joli
Il ne s'arrête jamais ici
C'est peut être un oubli
Tant pis
Pas d'chance, hein...

Tipi-Tii


Tipi-Tii
First performance by: Marion Rung - 1962



Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, kevät on vallaton
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, lintunen kertoi sen
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, etsimään riennetään
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, armahin kummankin

Kuorolaulu kun lauletaan, tässä kumpikin oksallaan
Saame kauemmas kuulumaan, kutsun rakkauden

Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, pesänkin rakensin
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, tule vain armahain

Kevät siivin iloisin, liihoittelee meillekin
Pyöritellen tullessaan, aurinkoista vannettaan

La la la... la la la...
La la la... la la la la...
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii

Kuorolaulu kun lauletaan, tässä kumpikin oksallaan
Saame kauemmas kuulumaan, kutsun rakkauden

Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, pesänkin rakensin
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, tule vain armahain
Kevät on vallaton, tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Tule vain mun armahain
Tipi-tii

Pas De Boogie Woogie


Pas De Boogie Woogie
Composer(s): Martine Layng Jr.; Claude Moine
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell; Florent Pagny



Le pape a dit que l'acte d'amour
Sans être marié, est un péché
Cette nouvelle il me faut l'annoncer
À ma paroisse: je suis curé

J'ai pris une dose de whisky
Afin de préparer mon sermon.
Je n'ai pas fermé l'œil de la nuit
Je me posais bien trop de questions

Au petit matin, Dieu m'est apparu
Et il m'a donné la solution
Aussitôt, vers l'église, j'ai couru
Parler à mes fidèles sur ce ton

"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères sœurs
Reprenez avec moi tous en cœur

Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel
Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel
Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"

Puis j'ai réclamé le silence
Afin d'observer les réactions
Sur certains visages de l'assistance
Se reflétait surtout l'indignation

Quant aux autres, visiblement obtus
Sachant qu'ils n'avaient rien compris
Ils me demandèrent de faire à nouveau
Le sermon du boogie woogie

"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères sœurs
Reprenez avec moi tous en cœur

Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel
Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel
Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"

Maintenant, tout est fait, tout est dit
Mais mes fidèles sont partis
Dieu, je reste seul dans ta maison
J'en ai l'air, mais le dire, à quoi bon?

Si ton pape m'a fait perdre l'affaire
J'irais tout droit, tout droit en enfer
Mais j'essaierai encore à la messe de midi
Le sermon du boogie woogie

"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères sœurs
Reprenez avec moi tous en cœur

Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir
{boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie}
Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel
Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel
Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"

Silver Bird


Silver Bird
Performer(s): Mark Lindsay



Get aboard the silver bird, departing gate 19
Satisfy your Walter Mitty mind, tryin' out a dream
Your sign is capricorn and every corner of your mind
Says you'll remain my friend, my friend until you're mine

Silver bird, fly my lady away
Silver bird, take her over the bay
Silver bird, give my lady a ride
And let her go see what's on the other side
Silver bird, fly my lady away
Pretty bird, today is the day

Lone rangers and strangers will knock at her door
But I know my babys' no baby no more
Silver bird, fly my lady away
Pretty bird, today is the day

When you come home my crazy heart will greet those silver wings
Your pet dog will remember you, and I'll carry your things
We'll catch a runnin' make-up, and you will look just fine
And you'll remain my friend, my friend until you're mine

Silver bird, fly my lady away
Silver bird, take her over the bay
Silver bird, give my lady a ride
And let her go see what's on the other side
Silver bird, fly my lady away
Pretty bird, today is the day

Party With No Name


Party With No Name
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Maurice Gibb; Robin Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees



Let's get started
Move in for the kill
So sincere
I'm here to bend your will
A man without a face
I give you love you've never known
We can hold each other, sight unseen
Touchin' on our darkest dream
You can wish for something bad
Lovers' lips you never had

All she wants is your love
All she wants is your love

(chorus)
We're the party with no name
And we go from flame to flame
We've got one claim to fame
We're the party with no name
Make those footsteps to the floor
You can't see us anymore
Ain't no time for the shame
For the party with no name

Easy money
Get yourself a job
It's my invitation
Been alone too long
A soul without a space
A party with no mane
Truth is there, but she don't see
Her life is just a mystery
I'd give her more than I could give
I'd even die that she could live

All she wants is your love
All she wants is your love

(chorus)
We're the party with no name
And we go from flame to flame
We've got one claim to fame
We're the party with no name

All she wants is your love
All she wants is your love

Repeat chorus

Non credevo possibile

Party Till The Cows Come Home


Party Till The Cows Come Home
Composer(s): Elvin Bishop; Steve Miller
Performer(s): Elvin Bishop; Albert Castiglia



Kick out the windows bust down the doors
We're drinkin' half gallons and shoutin' for more
Take off your shoes and let yourself go
We're never gonna let these good times go
We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows
We're gonna party till the cows come home
Let it roll ... Well, let it roll ...

We got all the chicken and ribs you can eat
We got good time music and dancin' feet
We're gonna turn up the music as loud as we please
We'll be so high we can hardly see
We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows
We're gonna party till the cows come home
Let it roll ... Ah, let it roll ...

Kick out the windows bust down the doors
We're drinking half gallons like never before
You gotta take off your shoes Mama let yourself go
Tonight we're gonna let these good times roll
We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows
We're gonna party till the cows come home
Let it roll ... Well, let it roll ... Let it roll ... Let it roll ...

Al Di La


Al Di La
(Italian Version: Al Di Là - 1961)
Composer(s): Mogol; Carlo Donida Labati; Ervin Drake
Performer(s): Connie Francis - 1962
and multiple other artists



Al di la, means you are far above me, very far
Al di la, as distant as the lovely evening star
Where you walk flowers bloom
When you smile all the gloom turns to sunshine
And my heart opens wide
When you're gone it fades inside and seems to have died

Al di la, I wondered as I drifted where you were
Al di la, the fog around me lifted, there you were
In the kiss that I gave was the love I had saved for a lifetime
Then I knew all of you was completely mine

Party Party


Party Party
Composer(s): Elvis Costello
Performer(s): Elvis Costello



We're gonna drink enough tonight to drown the average army
By New Year's Day the next door neighbour will be goin' barmy
(yep, that's how it's spelled)
The milkman arrives at midday with his usual wisecrack
Who knows a girl with Wednesday legs so when's they gonna snap?

Chorus:
Why does everybody have to be so hale and hearty
Can't they see we're tryin' to have a party party party party

The last thing I remember I was talkin' to some fellas
Then she said she'd have a word for me with her good-looking mate
And handed me a pint-pot filled with Advocaat and Tizer
And I woke up in the flowerbed fearing fertilizer

Chorus

So shift yourself and shake your bod
You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God
You got to learn from your mistakes
When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes

The doors and the window frames are by Pablo Picasso
The party decorations owned by Michelangelo
The fine music that you hear is by Stravinsky
with overall design by Leonardo daVinci

Chorus

So shift yourself and shake your bod
You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God
You got to learn from your mistakes
When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes

Two boys are upstairs in your bed
Three girls are downstairs cryin'
The Alka Seltzer in the glass is roarin' like a lion
You think you've aged 10 years tonight and still never been kissed
So you overdose on aftershave and try to slash your wrist

Chorus

Silly Thing


Silly Thing
Composer(s): Paul Cook; Steve Jones
Performer(s): The Sex Pistols



What you see, you can get
Nothing's free, nothing's said
Don't be fooled by the signs
Don't read in between the lines

What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You really gone and done it now

Trouble here, trouble there
People stop just to stare
What's the use of wasting time
Just move on, leave 'em all behind

What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now

Can't you ever depend
On someone you call a friend
When you see the naked eyes
You don't even ask 'em why
You don't even ask 'em why

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now

Party Line


Party Line
Composer(s): Ray Davies; Dave Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks



(Hello, who’s that speaking, please?)

I’m on a party line
Wonderin’ all the time
Who’s on the other end?
Is she big, is she small?
Is she a she at all?
Who’s on my party line?

Wish I had a more direct connection
This party line was here when I arrived
And I’m not voting in the next election
If they don’t do something about finding out
The person who is on my party line

I’m on a party line
I’m on a party line

I can’t speak without an interception
This is private, please get off my line
Please tell me when I can have my privacy
I’d like to meet the girl who’s always talking
When I’m speaking on my party line

Wish I had a more direct connection
This party line was here when I arrived
And I’m not voting in the next election
If they don’t do something about finding out
The person who is on my party line

Are You Sure?


Are You Sure?
Composer(s): Bob Allison; John Allison
First performance by: The Allisons - 1961



Goodbye, goodbye
farewell, farewell
I'm not sure what to do
So long, so long
Au revoir, au revoir
it's hard but I'll pull through

Are you sure you won't be sorry?
Comes tomorrow, you won't want me
Back again to hold you tightly?

Now are you sure
it's not your foolish heart?
That you won't grieve
if we're to be apart?
You will see, as time goes by
We'll grow lonely, you and I
Dreaming of each other
And we'll cry

Goodbye, goodbye
Farewell, farewell
I'm not sure what to do

So long, so long
Au revoir, au revoir
It's hard but I'll pull through

Are you sure you won't be sorry?
Comes tomorrow, you won't want me
Back again to hold you tightly?

Just stop and think
It's your decision now
For you're the one
Who went and broke the vow
You'll be sorry, wait and see
Spend your life in misery
Wishing that
You had returned to me

Goodbye, goodbye
Farewell, farewell
What is there to live for?

Before you go
just think now, are you sure?

Are you sure you won't be sorry?
Comes tomorrow, you won't want me
Back again to hold you tightly
In my arms?

Silly Me


Silly Me
Composer(s): Ben Weisman; Roberts Etoll
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



Funny how love comes and goes
With the tears that fill my life, does it show
So listen to my heart beat once again
Because of you I hope this feeling never ends

Silly me, I fell in love again
We started out as friends
You'd think I would have learned
From the hurt before
Foolish me, should I have closed the door
Promised, even swore
To never love this way
Oh, foolish me

They say that love's a chance you take
You know I've had my share
But when the nights get oh, so cold
I need you there

They say that love's a chance you take
You know I've had my share
But when the nights get oh, so cold
I need you there

Silly me, I fell in love again
We started out as friends
You'd think I would have learned
Oh, foolish me
Silly me

Nous Les Amoureux


Nous Les Amoureux
Composer(s): Maurice Vidalin; Jacques Datin
First performance by: Jean-Claude Pascal - 1961



Nous les amoureux
On voudrait nous séparer
On voudrait nous empêcher
D'être heureux
Nous les amoureux
Il paraît que c'est l'enfer
Qui nous guette
Ou bien le fer
Et le feu
C'est vrai, les imbéciles et les méchants
Nous font du mal, nous jouent des tours
Pourtant rien n'est plus évident
Que l'amour
Nous les amoureux
Nous ne pouvons rien contre eux
Ils sont mille et l'on est deux
Les amoureux

Mais l'heure va sonner
Des nuits moins difficiles
Et je pourrai t'aimer
Sans qu'on en parle en ville
C'est promis
C'est écrit

Nous les amoureux
Le soleil brille pour nous
Et l'on dort sur les genoux
Du bon Dieu
Nous les amoureux
Il nous a donné le droit
Au bonheur et à la joie
D'être deux
Alors, les sans-amour, les mal-aimés,
Il faudra bien nous acquitter
Vous qui n'avez jamais été
Condamnés
Nous les amoureux
Nous allons vivre sans vous
Car le ciel est avec nous
Les amoureux

Party Heart


Party Heart
Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant
Performer(s): Roy Orbison



You've got a party heart, a gay time party heart
You're only happy when the party's going on
And it makes me sad because I know that party's have to end
And when this party's over, you'll be gone

I love your party heart your playful party heart
But though you make me laugh you also make me cry
Cause I know you only think of me as just a party friend
And when the party's done you'll say goodbye

A playtime girl like you plays lots of thrills in life it seems
But oh, what I'd ever give to be the playboy of your dreams
I'd tame your party heart, your fickle party heart
And someday that's just what some party boy will do

But I love you so, I guess that I'll cry just as much as you
When someone breaks your party heart in two (3x)
