People Got To Be Free
People Got To Be Free
Composer(s): Felix Cavaliere; Edward Brigati Jr.
Performer(s): The Rascals;
and various other artists
All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, please listen, that's the way it should be
Deep in the valley, people got to be free
You should see
what a lovely, lovely world this'd be
Everyone learned to live together, ah-hah-unh
Seems to me
such an itty bitty thing should be
Why can't you and me learn to love one another?
All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
I can't understand it, so simple to me
People everywhere just got to be free
If there's a man
who is down and needs a helpin' hand
All it takes is you to understand and to pull him through, ah-hah-unh
Seems to me
we got to solve it individually, ah-hah-unh
And I'll do unto you what you do to me
Shout it from the mountain on out to the sea
No two ways about it, people have to be free
Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be
Nat'ral situation for a man to be free
Git right on board now
Oh, what a feelin's just come over me
Love can move a mountain, make a blind man see
Everybody sing it now come on let's go see
Deep in the valley now, we ought to be free
See that train over there?
That's the train of freedom
It's about to 'rrive any minute, now
You know it's been'a long, long overdue
Look out 'cause it's a'comin' right on through

Die Zeiger Der Uhr
Die Zeiger Der Uhr
First performance by: Margot Eskens - 1966
Du liest noch manchmal die alten Briefe, die er dir schrieb
Worin dir jede Zeile sagte: "Ich hab dich lieb"
Du schliesst die Augen und träumst von ihm
Und vom verlornen Glück
Doch die Zeiger der Uhr drehen sich nur
Vorwärts, vorwärts und nie zurück
Du hast noch viele schöne Bilder aus jener Zeit
Um diese wunderbaren Jahre tut es dir leid
Du schliesst die Augen, träumst von ihm
Und vom verlornen Glück
Doch die Zeiger der Uhr drehen sich nur
Vorwärts, vorwärts und nie zurück
Du fühlst dich einsam und träumst von gestern
Doch du lebst heut
Einer wird kommen, der dich von deinen Träumen befreit
Du schliesst die Augen
Und dann beginnt für dich ein neues Glück
Denn die Zeiger der Uhr drehen sich nur
Vorwärts, vorwärts und nie zurück
Die Zeiger der Uhr drehen sich nur
Vorwärts, vorwärts und nie zurück

People Get Ready
People Get Ready
Composer(s): Curtis Mayfield
Performer(s): The Impressions
People get ready, there's a train comin'
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin'
You don't need no ticket you just thank the lord
People get ready, there's a train to Jordan
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them
There's hope for all among those loved the most
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner whom would hurt all
mankind
Just to save his own
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
For there is no hiding place against the kingdoms throne
People get ready there's a train comin'
You don't need no baggage, just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin'
You don't need no ticket, just thank the lord

When you feel down and out
Sing a song, it'll make your day
Here's a time to shout
Sing a song, it'll make a way

A smile so hard to bear
Sing a song, it'll make a way
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Bring your heart to believing
Sing a song, it'll make your day
Life ain't about no retrieving
Sing a song, it'll make a way
Give yourself what you need
Sing a song, it'll make your day
Smile, smile, smile and believe
Sing a song, it'll make a way
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song
Sing a song

People Are Strange
People Are Strange
Composer(s): John Densmore; Robbie Krieger;
Ray Manzarek; Jim Morrison
Performer(s): The Doors
People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange

Non À Jamais Sans Toi
Non À Jamais Sans Toi
First performance by: Yovanna - 1965
Non - par le temps perdu à n'avoir voulu que toi
Non - par le temps passé à ne plus penser qu'à toi
Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
Va, tu n'as rien compris
Va, tu vois, je ne pleure pas
Aujourd'hui je te dis
Non - par les grands chemins revenus de loin pour toi
Non - par les nuits d'été qui n'ont fait danser que toi
Va, jusqu'au bout de l'horizon
Aujourd'hui c'est non
Non - parce qu'un matin ne restera rien de toi
Non - il viendra le jour du prochain amour sans toi
Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
À jamais sans toi
Va, tu vois, c'est demain déjà
À jamais sans toi

People Are Funnier Than Anybody
People Are Funnier Than Anybody
Composer(s): Eddie Brandt; Finberg
Performer(s): Spike Jones
Everyone say to begin the beguine
but no-one she begins him, so I will tell you how
First you lift your right leg, like this
Then you lift your left leg, like this
Then you lift both your legs together, like this
There must be an easier way to do this, I think
This is our philosophy
This is our philosophy
And we're sure, that you'll agree
People are funnier that anybody
Woman needs five dollars bad
Beauty facial must be had
Husband can't spare the money, of course
But he puts ten dollars on the nose of a horse
Wife can't see well enough to drive
Car through garage-doors twelve foot wide
But on husbands suit of grey
She can spot a blond hair from a block away
This is our philosophy
This is our philosophy
And we're sure, that you'll agree
People are funnier that anybody
Husband plays poker and enjoys
Sitting up all of night with the boys
But at home with his wife he'll fight
If he has to sit ten minutes with the baby at night
Wife runs faster than any gale
When she hears of a one-cent sale
"I'm saving you money" to her husband she'll blab
But to get to the sale she takes a taxi-cab
This is our philosophy
This is our philosophy
And we're sure, that you'll agree
People are funnier that anybody
Man gets married, says it's one good deal
He waited years for a homecooked meal
When wife has nice hot dinner on plate
He comes home from the poolroom two hours late
When single man kiss his girl goodnight
He gets filled with thrilled delight
But when husband kiss his wife, to say the least
He gets his nose caught in a curler and his whole face greased

People fly

Spinning this world upside down
People sun
People toast

Wire me
House me
Bug me

Spinning the world around
People, they're the main spring
Turning this world inside out

Cežnja
Cežnja
First performance by: Vice Vukov - 1965
Šumi, šumi more pjenom bijelom dok nemirni val
Donosi svaki put odjeke sjecanja
Odjeke maštanja na ovaj žal, tihi žal
Tiho šumi, šumi more kao nekad u danima sna
Kad smo na pješcanom tlu umorni zaspali
Zaspali tu, tu na tlu vreloga juga
Oh... pricaj, more, pricaj meni ti
O svitanju jutra moje cežnje za njom
Tiho šumi, šumi more k'o da želi da isprica sad
Šapatom cutanja sve o jednoj ljubavi
Ro?enoj tu, tu na tlu vreloga juga
Oh... pricaj, more, pricaj meni ti
O svitanju jutra moje cežnje za njom
Moje duboke ?ežnje za njom

People (Barbra Streisand)
People
Composer(s): Bob Merrill; Jule Styne
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand
People
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world
We're children, needing other children
And yet letting a grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside
Acting more like children than children
Lovers are very special people
They're the luckiest people in the world
With one person one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half now you're whole
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person who needs people
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world
With one person one very special person
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person who needs people
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world …

Sing A Sad Song
Sing A Sad Song
Composer(s): Wynn Stewart
First release by: Merle Haggard - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
Sing me a song of sadness
And sing it as blue as I feel
If a tear should appear it's because she's not here
Sing a sad song and sing it for me
She's unhappy with me she told me so
I'm unhappy without her
And I still love her so
Oh sing me a song of sadness
Pretend it's the end of the world
Sing it sweet and sing it low
And then I'll have to go sing a sad song
And sing it for me
Sing it sweet and sing it low
And then I'll have to go sing a sad song
And sing it for me

Penthouse Serenade (When We're Alone)
Penthouse Serenade (When We're Alone)
Composer(s): Val Burton; Will Jason
Performer(s): Bob Hope
Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I
When we're alone
From all of society, we'll stay aloof
And live in propriety there on the roof
Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
When we're all alone
We'll use life's mad pattern
As we view old Manhattan
Then we can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are
In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the Hudson just over the drive
When we're alone

Aurinko Laskee Länteen
Aurinko Laskee Länteen
First performance by: Viktor Klimenko - 1965
Aamulla aurinko nousi taivaani kirkastaen
purppura pilvissä sousi täyttymys unelmien
Nyt aurinko laskee länteen
saapunut ilta jo on
Aurinko laskee länteen
aurinko rakkaudeton
Uskonut illan en koskaan
saapuvan äkkiä näin
kunnes näin sinisen linnun
lentävän etelää päin
Näin sen ja ymmärsin sen
poissa aika on rakkauden
kun aurinko laskee länteen
Onneni auringon luulin
taivaalle seisahtaneen
kunnes näin sammuvan välkkeen
kuohussa tulisen veen
Näin sen ja ymmärsin sen
poissa aika on rakkauden
kun aurinko laskee länteen
kun aurinko laskee länteen

Penthouse Pauper
Penthouse Pauper
Composer(s): John Fogerty
Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival; Molly Hatchet
Now, if I was a bricklayer
I wouldn't build just anything
And if I was a ball player
I wouldn't play no second string
And if I were some jew'lry, baby
Lord, I'd have to be a diamond ring
If I were a secret, Lord, I never would be told
If I were a jug of wine, Lord, my flavor would be old
I could be most anything
But it got to be twenty-four karat solid gold, oh
If I were a gambler
You know I'd never lose
And if I were a guitar player
Lord, I'd have to play the blues
If I was a hacksaw
My blade would be razor sharp
If I were a politician, I could prove that monkeys talk
You can find the tallest building
Lord, I'd have me the house on top
Oh, let's go!
All right, keep goin'!
I'm the Penthouse Pauper
I got nothin' to my name
I'm the Penthouse Pauper; baby
I got nothing to my name
I can be most anything
'Cause when you got nothin' it's all the same
Oh, let's move to this song!
Lord, look at my penthouse

And make this old world new today

Pensiero
Pensiero
Composer(s): Roby Facchinetti; Nicola Negrini
Performer(s): Pooh
Non restare chiuso qui pensiero
riempiti di sole e vai nel cielo
cerca la tua casa e poi sul muro
scrivi tutto ciò che sai, che è vero, che è vero
Sono un uomo strano ma sincero
cerca di spiegarlo a lei pensiero
quella notte giù in città non c' ero
male non le ho fatto mai davvero, davvero
Solo lei nell' anima è rimasta lo sai
questo uomo inutile troppo stanco ormai
Solo tu pensiero puoi fuggire se vuoi
la sua pelle morbida accarezzerai
C'è sulla montagna il suo sentiero
vola fin lassù da lei pensiero
dal cuscino ascolta il suo respiro
porta il suo sorriso qui vicino, vicino
Non restare chiuso qui pensiero
riempiti di sole e va nel cielo
cerca la tua casa e poi sul muro
scrivi tutto ciò che sai pensiero, pensiero
