Falter im Wind
Falter im Wind
Composer(s): Richard Schönherz; Manuel Rigoni; Heinz Unger
First performance by: Milestones - 1972
Bleib' nicht im Wald, Schmetterling und verflieg' dich nicht bei Nacht
Falsch ist der Mond, sein Schattenspiel, in der Dämmerung ist kein Halt
Bleib' nicht in den Wäldern
Bleib' nicht in den Wäldern
Bleib' nicht in den Wäldern
Tanz um die Lichter, Schmetterling - deine Farben flammen auf
Tot ist die Nacht, in deinem Tanz, ist das Leben hell wie Tag
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Falter im Wind, wie Zeit, die verrinnt
Wie Sand in der Hand, verweht, verbrannt
Hörst du es nicht? - Ein Flügel zerbricht
Ein Flüstern verspricht Licht
Hell ist dein Tag, darum tanze schnell, er währt einen Flügelschlag
Tanz um die Lichter, Schmetterling, bald fällt Abendnebel ein
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Fall nicht in die Sonne
Falter im Wind, wie Zeit, die verrinnt
Wie Sand in der Hand, verweht, verbrannt
Hörst du es nicht? - Ein Flügel zerbricht
Ein Flüstern verspricht Licht
Falter im Wind, wie Zeit, die verrinnt
Wie Sand in der Hand, verweht, verbrannt
Hörst du es nicht? - Ein Flügel zerbricht
Ein Flüstern verspricht Licht

Pinky
Pinky
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John
I don't want to wake you
But I'd like to tell you that I love you
That the candlelight fell like a crescent
Upon your feather pillow
For there's more ways than one
And the ways of the world are a blessing
For when Pinky's dreaming
She owes the world nothing
And her silence keeps us guessing
Pinky's as perfect as the Fourth of July
Quilted and timeless, seldom denied
The trial and the error of my master plan
Now she rolls like the dice in a poor gambler's hands
You don't want to tell me
But somehow you've guessed that I know
Oh when dawn came this morning
You discovered a feeling that burned like a flame in your soul
For there's toast and honey
And there's breakfast in bed on a tray
Oh it's ten below zero
And we're about to abandon our plans for the day

Skip To My Lou
(Traditional)
Lost my partner what'll I do...
I'll get another one prettier than you...
Skip, skip, skip to my lou...
Skip to my lou my darling
Flies in the buttermilk, two by two...
Files in the sugar bowl, shoo, shoo, shoo...
Skip, skip, skip to my lou...
Skip to my lou my darling
Little red wagon painted blue...
Going to Texas, two by two...

Pinksterdaghotel
Pinksterdaghotel
Composer(s): A. Spyropoulos; C. Nooteboom; P. Campbell-Lyons
Performer(s): Liesbeth List
Onder de oceaan der stilte op de maan
rijst het Pinksterdaghotel op aard zijn spinrag
De sterren staan in brand, de golven goud gevlamd
en alle gasten baden in het vuurwerk
En in de lobby zorgt godin Aphrodite
voor alle gasten met het paspoort van de waanzin
En 7 nimfen zweven rond door de gangen
van het Pinksterdaghotel
De nacht wordt zwaar en loom
je brengt me naar een droom
en kroont me daar tot koningin der zeeën
Vanuit mijn droompaleis wordt d'aarde doods en grijs
maar 't Pinksterdaghotel rijst uit het spinrag
En in de lobby zorgt godin Aphrodite
voor alle gasten met het paspoort van de waanzin
En 7 nimfen zweven rond door de gangen
van het Pinksterdaghotel
van het Pinksterdaghotel

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

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

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
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

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

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

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
