Skinny Minnie


Skinny Minnie
Composer(s): Bill Haley; Rusty Keefer; Catherine Williamson; Milt Gabler
First release by: Bill Haley & His Comets - 1958
Covered by multiple other artists



My skinny Minnie is a crazy chick
Six foot high and one foot thick
Do I love her
Does a boy love pie
She is the apple of my eye
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Though her shadow doesn't take much ground
What there is sure gets around
What there ain't that's what she be
'N' even that's too much for me
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Slightly slimmer than a fishing pole
One half rock and one half roll
Dig that chick from either side
Man, you'll yell "Where did she hide"
Skinny Minnie
She ain't skinny, she's tall, that's all

Pink Panther Theme Song


Pink Panther Theme Song
Composer(s): Doug Goodwin; Walter Greene; William Lava



Think of all the animals you ever heard about
Like rhinoceroses and tigers, cats and mink
There are lots of funny animals in all this world
But have you ever seen a panther that is pink?
Think!
A panther that is positively pink!

Well here he is, the Pink Panther
The Pink Panther
Ev'rybody loves a panther that's pink
He really is a groovy cat
And he's a gentleman, a scholar, he's a acrobat

He's in the pink, the Pink Panther
The rinky-dink panther
And it's as plain as your nose
That he's the one and only, truly original
Panther pink from head to toe
That he's the one and only, truly original
Panther Pink Panther from head to toe!

A Festa Da Vida


A Festa Da Vida Composer(s): José Calvário - José Niza First performance by: Carlos Mendes - 1972



Que venha o sol o vinho e as flores
Marés, canções de todas as cores
Guerras esquecidas por amores

Que venham já trazendo abraços
Vistam sorrisos de palhaços
Esqueçam tristezas e cansaços

Que tragam todos os festejos
E ninguém se esqueça de beijos
Que tragam pendas de alegria
E a festa dure até ser dia

Que não se privem nas despesas
Afastem todas as tristezas
Pão vinho e rosas sobre as mesas
Que tragam cobertores ou mantas
E o vinho escorra p'las gargantas
E a festa dure até às tantas

Que venham todos de vontade
Sem se lembrarem de saudade
Venham os novos e os velhos
Mas que nenhum me dê conselhos!

Que venham todos de vontade
Sem se lembrarem de saudade
Venham os novos e os velhos
Mas que nenhum me dê conselhos!

Skinny Man


Skinny Man
Composer(s): Mikhael Kollander
Performer(s): The 5th Dimension



Hey and around and around he goes
Hey and around and around he goes

There was a skinny man who lived on a hill
Hey and around and around
And if I'm not mistaken he lives there still
Hey and around and around
He's got a carrot patch and a roof of thatch
And two little pots in a yard
(He)Don't go to school or work like a fool because he knows it's too hard

He gets up in the morning and walks through the green
Hey and around and around
He knows of places where you've never been
Hey and around and around
(I)Can understand why he feels that way 'cause I've felt that way too
I like to walk in the woods all day with nothing else to do

Hey and around and around he goes
Look at what he's found
And the leaves run through his toes
Hey and around and around

The skinny man who lives on the hill
Hey and around and around
He lives all alone and does what he will
Hey and around and around
There is no one to tell him what or how or why or where
He sometimes waits up late at night for the girl who isn't there

Hey and around and around he goes
Look at what he's found
And the leaves run through his toes
Hey and around and around

Hey and around and around he goes
Hey and around and around he goes

Pink Houses


Pink Houses
Composer(s): John Mellencamp
Performer(s): John Cougar Mellencamp;
and various other artists



There's a black man with a black cat livin' in a black neighborhood
He's got an interstate runnin' through his front yard
You know he thinks that he's got it so good
And there's a woman in the kitchen cleanin' up the evenin' slop
And he looks at her and says, "Hey darlin', I can remember when
you could stop a clock"

Chorus:
Oh but ain't that America for you and me
Ain't that America somethin' to see baby
Ain't that America home of the free
Little pink houses for you and me

There's a young man in a t-shirt
Listenin' to a rockin' rollin' station
He's got greasy hair, greasy smile
He says, "Lord this must be my destination"
'Cause they told me when I was younger
"Boy you're gonna be president"
But just like everything else those old crazy dreams
Just kinda came and went

Chorus

Well there's people and more people
What do they know know know
Go to work in some high rise
And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico
Ooh yeah
And ther's winners and there's losers
But they ain't no big deal
'Cause the simple man baby pays for the thrills, the bills
the pills that kill

Chorus

Skinny Legs And All
Composer(s): Joe Tex
Performer(s): Joe Tex; Wee Willie & The Winks; Tony Joe White



(night club)
Say man, don't walk ahead of that woman like she don't belong to you!
Just 'cause hers got them little skinny legs
You know, that ain't no way to do
You didn't act like that when you had it home behind closed doors!
Alright...
Now you act like you're 'shamed or somethin'
or you don't want nobody to know she's yours
That's alright,you just walk on baby...

And don't you worry about a doggone thing a'tall, because there's
some man, somewhere, who'll take you baby, skinny legs and all

Now, Who'll take the woman with the skinny legs?
C'mon somebody please take the lady with the skinny legs
Now, you all know the lady with the skinny legs got to have somebody too, now
Will somebody please take the lady with the skinny legs, please?

(asking)
"Hey, Joe".. (Joe answers)
"Yeah Bobby? Why don't you take her?
(response)
You-a-fool?
I don't want no woman with no skinny legs
Look here,I thought I might give this woman to Clyde
But, no, I know the kinda woman Clyde likes!
So Leroy'll take her
Say Leroy?
You got her!!

Say, Miss? Right here?
Now why you wanna act like that man ain't yours?
Just cause he's walkin with you, with them raggedy clothes
Man just forgot to get his suit out a the cleaners, that's all
Alright...alright...
Act like that man don't belong to ya!
Go on over there and kiss him and hold his hand
Go on..say you ain't gonna do What?
That's alright
You just walk on Mister

and don't you worry about a doggone thing, a'tall
because there's some woman somewhere who'll take
you, "Mr. Raggedy" clothes and all!

Pink House


Pink House
Composer(s): Astrud Gilberto
Performer(s): Astrud Gilberto



I wanna pink house at the shore
I wanna love that lasts forever more
I wanna cat and a dog, and a fireplace too
I want the music playing at a barbecue
I wanna house full of friends and a jacuzzi for two
But most of all, I want you

I know I want a king-size bed
A tub that's large enough for a bubble-bath
I wanna a white picket fence, and a garden, too
An apple tree would be nice, to sit under with you
Some quiet nights for romance and cozy dinners for two
But most of all, I want you

'Cause you're the cherry that sits on top of the cream
You are the lover that stepped right out of my dream
You are the one my one needs to be two
And make a "we" of me and you

I wanna pink house at the shore
I wanna love that lasts forever more
I wanna cat and a dog, and a fireplace too
I want the music playing at a barbecue
I wanna house full of friends and a jacuzzi for two
But most of all, I want you

Amanece


Amanece
First performance by: Jaime Morey - 1972



Amanece, la lluvia moja lentamente mi despertar
La gente camina cerca de mi soledad sin parar
Amanece
Parece que el cielo se nubló para nosotros
Desde el momento triste en que escuché tu adiós

Yo sé de un lugar, a través del mar
Donde el día brilla más cuando amanece
Nuestra nave irá rumbo hacia esa luz
Por el mar de tu confianza
Con viento de esperanza en el mañana

Escucha, tratemos de empezar hoy otra vez, ¿por qué no?
Si quieres será nuestra bandera la amistad y el amor
Amanece
Busquemos, busquemos en el cielo azules nuevos
Ganemos la batalla a nuestra incomprensión

Yo sé de un lugar, a través del mar
Donde el día brilla más cuando amanece
Nuestra nave irá rumbo hacia esa luz
Por el mar de tu confianza
Con viento de esperanza en el mañana

Yo sé de un lugar, a través del mar
Donde el día brilla más cuando amanece
Yo sé de un lugar, a través del mar
Donde el día brilla más cuando amanece

Pink Cadillac


Pink Cadillac
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen



You may think I'm fooling
For the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves like you do
Well baby, you know you bug me
There ain't no secret about that
Well come on over here and hug me
And, baby, I'll spill the facts
Well, honey it ain't your money
Cause baby I got plenty of that

I love you for your pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what you do there in back of your pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

Well now way back in the Bible, temptations always come along
There's always somebody tempting you
Somebody into doing something they know is wrong
Well they tempt you man with silver and they tempt you sir with gold
And they tempt you with the pleasures that the flesh does surely hold
They say Eve tempted Adam with an apple
Man I ain't going for that

I know it was her pink Cadillac
Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls
Feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what you do there in back of your pink Cadillac

Now some folks say it's too big and uses too much gas
Some folks say it's too old and that it goes too fast
But my love is bigger than a Honda, it's bigger than a Subaru
Hey man there's only one thing and one car that will do
Anyway we don't have to drive it honey, we can park it out in back
And have a party in your pink Cadillac

Pink


Pink
Composer(s): Steven Tyler; Glen Ballard; Richie Supa
Performer(s): Aerosmith



Pink- it's my new obsession
Pink it's not even a question
Pink, on the lips of your lover, 'cause
Pink is the love you discover

Pink as the bing on your cherry
Pink 'cause you are so very
Pink it's the color of passion
'Cause today it just goes with the fashion

Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do...

Tonight you could be my flamingo
'Coz pink is the new kinda of lingo
Pink like a deco umbrella
It's kink - but you don't ever tell her

Pink it was love at first sight, and
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight

I want to be your lover
I wanna wrap you in rubber
As pink as the sheets that we lay on
Pink it's my favorite crayon, yeah

Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink it's like red but not quite
And I think, everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight

Performer(s): Annette Funicello;
Nã Leo Pilimehana; Wiki Waki Woo



Chorus

Pineapple Princess
he calls me Pineapple Princess
All day as he plays his ukulele
On the hill above the bay
Pineapple Princess
I love you
Your the sweetest girl I've seen
Someday we're going to marry
And you'll be my Pineapple Queen

I saw a boy on O'ahu Isle
Floating down the bay
On a crocodile
He waved at me and
He swam ashore
And I knew he'd be mine
Forever more

Chorus

He sings his song
From banan trees
He even sings to me
On his waterskis
We went skindivin'
Beneth the blue
He sang and playes
His ukulele too

Pineapple Princess
I love you
Your the sweetest girl I've seen
Someday we're going to marry
And you'll be my Pineapple Queen

We'll settle down in a bambo hut
And he will be my little coconut
Then we'll be beachcombing royalty
On Wiki Wiki Waki Waikiki

Comé Comédie


Comé Comédie
Composer(s): Frédéric Botton
First performance by: Betty Mars - 1972



Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
En amour c'est toujours comme ça
Come come comédie
Une chanson qu'on oublie
Mais un jour il reviendra
Quelques pages d'une vie
Qu'on effeuille et c'est ainsi
Que la Terre tournera
Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
Quand on s'aime toi et moi

Notre histoire s'écrit en deux mots
Je t'aime, tu m'aimes
Quoi de plus beau?
Pourquoi faut-il s'en défendre?
Pourquoi chercher à comprendre?
Puisqu'on chante aussitôt

Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
Le bonheur n'est jamais si simple
Come come comédie
Les faits faux aujourd'hui
Pourraient être vrais demain
Le temps d'orage ou bien la pluie
Les chagrins et les soucis
Après tout cela n'est rien
Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
Ces trois notes à mon refrain
Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
En amour c'est toujours comme ça
Come come comédie
L'on dit non puis on dit oui
En regardant quelquefois
Quelque part je dis la vie
Qu'on effeuille et c'est ainsi
Que la Terre tournera
Come come comédie
Comme comme comme on dit
Autant que l'on s'aimera
Come come comédie
Comme comme on dit

Pineapple Face


Pineapple Face
Composer(s): Hicks; Peter Hook; Chris Jones
Performer(s): Revenge



Peace, in peace
Always live in peace
We live in peace, in peace
Always, always

I'm trying and I see a form of love
Even though I fight it, I can't hide
With all the feelings in my head
and all the times that I have tried

Will anybody give me what I need?
Put all my faith in God above
This time I'm falling just for you
I guess I'm hungry for that love

I want you
I need you
And all the things you're asking for
"I'll try," she goes
Up and down like every man around

I'm only preaching what you knew
The awful feeling when you lie
It takes the joy out of my soul
and puts the hate back in my eye

Will anybody give me what I want?
Put all my faith in God up high
This time I'm working just for love
It's the only [weeping] that I'll try

Now you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
I live in fear of the dark

Skin I'm In


Skin I'm In
Composer(s): Larry Blackmon
Performer(s): Cameo



Who's the face in the mirror
That I see sometimes confused
By the double-standards of society
And maybe I'm wrong about the way I feel
But then, will somebody tell me
What is really real

Now, I respect myself, I respect you too
But in the end it's got to be
Do unto me as I do to you
Now I'm trying to tell you it's time
Somewhere and I walk to my design
Somewhere in the truth from my life
To live like people so inspired

As the waters out to sea
Let's simply respect humanity
One time seem to be
We're getting it together, it's for real
If we have truth we can't survive
And for that our forefathers have died
It should be immoral or a sin
If it is according to the skin I'm in
Skin I'm in

Tell me how many times
How many times can I adjust my attitude
To reach and touch the sky
Is it love or decree by which I live
But then sometimes I wonder
Just how much a man can give

Truth and justice that's around me
From the highest levels of power
And you think these are the people
I depend on for my survival
Is this for real
Or am I seeing shadows in the dark
I let you tell me, tell me
Can you tell me brother

Peaceful waters out to see
And simply respect humanity
I'm just trying to be realistic
But now I'm becoming pessimistic
At least I know we can survive
A damn good reason to stay alive
Is it immortal or a sin
It shouldn't be according to the skin I'm in

World.....Love.....People
World.....Love.....People

It's the waters out to sea
Basic respect to humanity
I'm just trying to be for real
In a world with less appeal
At first they seem to fluster
At what's happening to justice
Is it immoral or a sin
If it is according to the skin I'm in
Skin I'm in

Pince-Moi, J'hallucine


Pince-Moi, J'hallucine
Composer(s): F. Laumont; P. Besombes;
C. Creuset; X. Thibault
Performer(s): Annie Cordy



Entrée par erreur
Au musée des horreurs
Je m'fais des frayeurs
J'entends battre mon cœur
Les esprits frappeurs
Sont-ils à l'intérieur
Et s'ils sont ailleurs
Qu'ils cognent comme un boxeur

Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas, y a quelque chose qui m'turlupine
Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas, je nage dans l'hémoglobine
Ahhhhhh! y a des fantômes
Y a des sorcières
Y a de l'Halloween dans l'air

Salle des étrangleurs
D'où vient donc cette odeur?
Je sens qu'j'ai mes vapeurs
Je m'éclipse en douceur
Deux trois embaumeurs
M'regardent inquisiteurs
Tu parles d'une demeure
Si j'en sors pas... je meurs
Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas,
Y a quelque chose qui m'turlupine
Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas, je nage dans l'hémoglobine
Y a des fantômes!
Y a des sorcières!
Y a de l'Halloween dans l'air!
Et tous ces sque-squelettes
Qui cli-cli-quettent
Je m'demande c'qui ont dans la tê-tête
Y a des fantômes!
Y a des sorcières!
Y a de l'Halloween dans l'air!

Un rire massacreur
Résonne avec ardeur
Comble de terreur
Minuit sonne, quel malheur
Je crois qu'c'est l'éventreur
Ah ! sacré farceur
Je change de couleur
J'te dis pas... ça fait peur!

Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas...
Y a quelque chose qui m'turlupine
Pince-moi, j'hallucine
J'rêve pas, je nage dans l'hémoglobine
Pince-moi... ad lib
