Muistathan


Muistathan
Composer(s): Juha Flinck; Nacke Johansson
First performance by: Päivi Paunu & Kim Floor - 1972



Muistathan sä yöistä tuon suloisimman
päivän ihanan sekä kauniin illan
hetken jolloin käteeni ensi kerran otit omaasi lämpimään
Kävelimme kahden vain hetken verran
läpi puistikon poikki vanhan sillan
Tuokio tuo pieni meille riitti silloin onnen antamaan

Kohtasimme keskellä ihmisten
Sattumako, ei mä tiedän sen
Kohtalo toi eteemme rakkauden ja onnen maan
On onnea surukin osaltaan
Se vain elämänä täytyy oivaltaa
Miksi ihmisellä muuten oliskaan taito naurahtaa

Kävelimme kahden vain hetken verran
Läpi puistikon poikki vanhan sillan
Tuokio tuo pieni meille riitti silloin onnen antamaan

Unessako kenties mä näin jo sun
Siitä varmaan johtui tää tunne mun
Elänyt oon ennenkin hetkisen mä pienoisen

Unta varmaan se kaikki on vieläkin
puisto, silta sekä kätes lämpimin
Sekunnissa elin elämän melkein ikuisen

La la la la laa...

Pink Shoelaces


Pink Shoelaces
Composer(s): Mark Grant
Performer(s): Dodie Stevens; The Chordettes



Now I got a guy and his name is Dooley
He's my guy and I love him truly!
He's not good lookin', heaven knows!
But I'm wild about his crazy clothes!

He wears tan shoes with pink shoelaces
A polka-dot vest, and man, oh man!
He wears tan shoes with pink shoelaces
And a big panama with a purple hat band!

He takes me deep sea diving in a submarine!
We go to drive in moves in a limousine!
He's got a whirly birdy and a twelve foot yacht!
Ah, but that's a-not all he's got...

He's got tan shoes with pink shoelaces
A polka-dot vest, and man, oh man!
He's got tan shoes with pink shoelaces
And a big panama with a purple hat band!

Now Dooley had a feelin' we were goin' to war
So he went out and enlisted in a fightin corps!
But he landed in the brig for raisin' such a storm
When they tried to put him in a uniform!

He wanted tan shoes with pink shoelaces
A polka-dot vest, and man, oh man!
He wanted tan shoes with pink shoelaces
And a big panama with a purple hat band!

How one day Dooley started feelin' sick
So he figured that he ought to make his will out quick!
He said, "Just before the angels come to carry me
I want it down and right in how to burry me!"

A-wearin tan shoes with pink shoelaces
A polka-dot vest, and man, oh man!
Give me tan shoes with pink shoelaces
And a big panama with a purple hat band!

And a big panama with a purple hat band!

Skip A Rope


Skip A Rope
Composer(s): Jack Moran; Glenn Tubb
First release by: Henson Cargill - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



Skip a rope skip a rope
Oh listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

Daddy hates mommy mommy hates dad
Last night you should've heard the fight they had
It gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with a terrible scream

Skip a rope skip a rope...

Cheat on your taxes don't be a fool
Now what was that they said about the golden rule
Never mind the rule just play to win
And hate your neighbor for the shade of his skin

Skip a rope skip a rope...

Stub 'em in the back that's the name of the game
And mommy and daddy are who's to blame

Skip a rope skip a rope
Just listen to your children while they play
It's really not very funny what the children say
Skip a rope skip a rope
Skip a rope skip a rope

Pink Peg Slacks


Pink Peg Slacks
Composer(s): Jerry Capehart; Eddie Cochran; Hank Cochran
Performer(s): Eddie Cochran



I went downtown last night, gonna dig a show
Walked past the display window of a big department store
When I looked inside this window, hangin' off of the racks
Down there near the bottom was a great pair of pink peg slacks
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash and wear crazy pink peg slacks

Well, I walked up to a salesman and said
"Mister, I'm flat broke
But I gotta have them pink slacks"
He said, "What is this, man, a joke?"
Well, I asked him how much money;
He said, "add 4 and 8"
I said, "Man, them pants is crazy; them's pink pair of acetate!"
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash and wear crazy pink peg slacks

I went to see my baby, asked her for some dough
She said, "Well, you know, I love you, honey, but what you need this money for?"
Well, I talked about them baggers I saw across downtown
She got a sawbuck from her daddy and I turned my Ford around
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash and wear crazy pink peg slacks

Brought the Ford to a stop, rushed into the store
Said, "Man, I got a sawbuck"
He said, "No, you need 2 bucks more"
I said, "What's the matter, can't I charge you?"
He said, "You don't get these things for free"
I said, "But Mister, you just don't know what those pink peggers mean to me!"
I gotta have 'em; yeah, what I need for 'em is cash
Well well, have a lot of cash and wear crazy pink peg slacks

C'est La Chanson De Mon Amour


C'est La Chanson De Mon Amour Composer(s): Catherine Desage - Véronique Muller First performance by: Véronique Müller - 1972



Des mots sauvages et tendres - c'est la chanson de mon amour
Mon cœur s'est laissé prendre à la chanson de mon amour
Mon amour

Elle est là tout au long de ma vie
Elle m'attend dans le vent et sous la pluie
Dans le bleu d'un ciel bleu en plein midi
Dans ma nuit qui s'ennuie si loin de lui

Un jour, c'était décembre, je m'en allais seule sous la pluie
On s'est trouvé ensemble à partager le même abri

Sa main a pris la mienne, on s'est aimé le même jour
Le temps, l'espoir, la peine - c'est la chanson de mon amour
Mon amour

Elle est là tout au long de ma vie
Elle m'attend dans le vent et sous la pluie
Dans le bleu d'un ciel bleu en plein midi
Dans ma nuit qui s'ennuie si loin de lui

Des mots sauvages et tendres - c'est la chanson de mon amour
Mon cœur s'est laissé prendre à la chanson de mon amour

Di di di da da... di di da da da di da da...
Mon cœur s'est laissé prendre à la chanson de mon amour
Mon amour

Pink Pedal Pushers


Pink Pedal Pushers
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
Performer(s): Carl Perkins;
Jerry Lee Lewis; '68 Comeback



Well, she goes struttin' down the street
In her sofisticated style

The way she's dressed was a knocking 'em wild
The cats started gazing till they called her out
Her pink pedal pushers was a-knocking 'em out

She wears a-pink pedal pushers, pink pedal pushers
Her pink pedal pushers has made her the queen of them all

She goes drivin' down the street in her brand new car
The cats started gazin' from near and far

She don't cause commotion till she steps outside

The cats get hep and holler, ooh-ooh man alive!
She's wearin' pink pedal pushers, pink pedal pushers
Pink pedal pushers has made her the queen of them all

(Ooh wop a do)
Pink pedal pushers has made her the queen of the mall

She got the number one phones to high school hop
The older folks said she got to favour the mob
She's got more than I've ever had
She's a rock 'n' roll ditty with a brand new fad
She wears a-pink pedal pushers, pink pedal pushers
Pink pedal pushers has made her the queen of them all

Well, they gave her a part in a high school play
They all chose her to play the old may
Curtain call had the crowd off the floor
Her pink pedal pusher, they stole the show
She wears a-pink pedal pushers, pink pedal pushers
Pink pedal pushers has made her the queen of them all

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

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

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- 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
