Plastic Man
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks
A man lives at the corner of the street
And his neighbors think he's helpful and he's sweet
'Cause he never swears and he always shakes you by the hand
But no one knows he really is a plastic man
He's got a plastic heart, plastic teeth and toes
(Yeah, he's plastic man)
He's got plastic knees and a perfect plastic nose
(Yeah, he's plastic man)
He's got plastic lips that hide his plastic teeth and gums
And plastic legs that reach up to his plastic bum (Plastic bum)
Plastic man got no brain
Plastic man don't feel no pain
Plastic people look the same
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kick his shin or tread on his face
Pull his nose all over the place
You can't disfigure or disgrace
Plastic man (Plastic man)
He's got plastic flowers growing up the wall
He eats plastic food with a plastic knife and fork
He likes plastic cups and saucers 'cause they never break
And he likes to lick his gravy off a plastic plate
Plastic man got no brain
Plastic man don't feel no pain
Plastic people look the same
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Kick his shin or tread on his face
Pull his nose all over the place
You can't disfigure or disgrace
Plastic man (Plastic man)
He's got a plastic wife who wears a plastic mac
(Yeah, he's plastic man)
And his children wanna be plastic like their Dad
(Yeah, he's plastic man)
He's got a phony smile that makes you think he understands
But no one ever gets the truth from plastic man (Plastic man)
Plastic man (Plastic man, plastic man)

Chi Sarà Con Te
Chi Sarà Con Te
Composer(s): Enrico Polito - Giancarlo Bigazzi - T. Savio
First performance by: Massimo Ranieri - 1973
Come al nostro primo appuntamento un anno fa
Oggi aspetto un'altra e tutto si ripeterà
Camminiamo un poco e mentre prendo la sua mano
Il cuore mi domanda piano
Chi sarà con te, forse la sua mano, stringerà la tua
Chi sarà, sarà, magari è emozionato come io con lei
Non parliamo più, io m'avvicino e sfioro le sue labbra ma
Penso a chi sarà con te
Lucide vetrine, specchi per gli innamorati
Cinema da pochi soldi, strade sconosciute
Lei che ti assomiglia un poco e il fuoco si riaccende
Ma un po' di nostalgia mi prende
Chi sarà con te, chi ti stringerà forte come me
Chi sarà, sarà, cosa importa ormai, se l'ho voluto io
Caro amore mio, mentre io ti penso, chi sarà con te

Plastic Fantastic Lover
Plastic Fantastic Lover
Composer(s): Marty Balin
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
Her neon mouth with a bleeding talk smile
Is nothing but electric sign
You could say she has an individual style
She's a part of a colorful time
Super-sealed lady, chrome-color clothes
You wear 'cause you have no other
But I suppose no one knows
You're my plastic fantastic lover
Your rattlin' cough never shuts off
Is nothing but a used machine
Your aluminum finish, slightly diminished
Is the best I've ever seen
Cosmetic baby, plug into me
And never, ever find another
And I realize no one's wise
To my plastic fantastic lover
The electrical dust is starting to rust
Her trapezoid thermometer taste
All the red tape is mechanical rape
Of the TV program waste
Data control and IBM
Science is mankind's brother
But all I see is draining me
On my plastic fantastic lover

Sleepwalk
Sleepwalk
Composer(s): Santo Farina; Johnny Farina; Ann Farina
First release by: Santo & Johnny - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
Sleep walk
Instead of dreaming
I sleep walk
'Cause I lost you
And now what am I to do
What to do
Can't believe that we're through
I don't care how much you tell me
Sleep talk
'Cause I miss you
I sleep talk
While the memory of you
Lingers like a song
Darling, I was so wrong
But I'll be right someday
The night
Fills my lonely place
I see your face
Spinning through my brain
I know
I miss you so
I still love you
And it drives me insane
Sleep walk
Every night
I just sleep walk
And when you
Walk inside the door
I will sleep walk no more
Sleep walk
Every night
I just sleep walk
And when you
Walk inside the door
I will sleep walk no more
I will sleep walk no more
I will sleep walk no more

Plantation Rock
Plantation Rock
Composer(s): Bill Giant; Bernie Baum; Florence Kaye
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Now come along with me
We'll do the plantation rock
It's easy as can be
You'll wanna dance round the clock
Well, it became a sensation
Rockin' on the plantation
Dancin' in the fields down to each dock
They do the plantation rock
So come on, bend your knees, twist with ease
Side to side like the swaying trees keep in rhythm
Now have some pep, double step
Shake right there like a rockin' chair and stay with 'em
Well now you're right at home
Doin' the plantation rock
Just do it as you were shown
You'll wanna dance round the clock
Well just like on the plantation
Folks all over the nation
Started rockin' on each street and block
They do the plantation rock
They do the plantation rock
They do the plantation rock
They do the plantation rock

Sleepless Nights
Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant; Felice Bryant
First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists
Through the sleepless nights I cry for you
And wonder who is kissing you
Oh these sleepless nights will break my heart in two
Somehow through the days I don`t give in
I hide the tears that wait within
Oh but then through sleepless nights I cry again
Why did you go? Why did you go?
Don`t you know, don`t you know
I need you?
I keep hoping you`ll come back to me
Oh let it be, please let it be
Oh my love, please end these sleepless nights for me

Planetas Y Personajes
Planetas Y Personajes
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
A un planeta llegué
donde había un contador
que contaba las estrellas
para ser un gran señor
"Una y una son tres"
Apenas me pudo ver
"Dos y cinco son seis"
millonario quiere ser
A otro planeta llegué
a un vanidoso encontré
que me hizo aplaudir
y orgulloso dijo así
"Para mí en cada ser
existe un admirador
que debe reconocer
lo hermoso que yo soy"
Y volé a otro planeta
donde había un bebedor
y entre todas sus botellas
me dio esta explicación
"Beberé para olvidar
que yo soy un bebedor
Viviré para beber
y olvidar este dolor"

Je Vais Me Marier, Marie
Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë; Patrick Juvet
First performance by: Patrick Juvet - 1973
Mes amis, mes bons amis, je vous ai réunis
Nous allons nous noyer dans le champagne et le whisky
Allez youpi
On va rire et chanter pendant toute la nuit
Et puis demain matin je me rendrai à la mairie
Allez youpi, allez youpi
Je vais me marier, Marie
Et vous quitter Sophie, Marianne et Virginie
Oh… ne pleure pas, Marie
Pas plus que toi, Véronica et Rebecca
Je renonce à vos caresses, à votre amour, à ma douce vie
Je vais me marier, Roger
Et vous quitter, toi Frédéric et toi Didier
Ne te moque pas, Lucas
Pas plus que toi, Napoléon, ni toi, Colas
Je renonce à nos prouesses, à nos nuits de folie
Et à notre jeunesse qui finit aujourd'hui
Puisque je me marie
Demain il sera bien temps
De penser à la vie, de faire des enfants, de placer mes économies
Allez youpi
Demain je serai bouclé
Vous ne me verrez plus, buvons à ma santé et à la liberté perdue
Vive la mariée, vive la mariée
Je vais me marier, Marie
Et vous quitter Sophie, Marianne et Virginie
Oh… ne pleure pas, Marie
Pas plus que toi, Véronica et Rébécca
Je renonce à vos caresses, à votre amour, à ma douce vie
Je vais me marier, Roger
Et vous quitter, toi Frédéric et toi Didier
Ne te moque pas, Lucas
Pas plus que toi, Napoléon, ni toi, Colas
Il faut qu'on s'en souvienne jusqu'au bout de la vie
Et que quoiqu'il advienne, nous restions des amis
Même si je me marie
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na…

Planeta Agua
Planeta Agua
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Planeta agua, en el cielo
flotando en la inmensidad
trae sonidos el viento
que hablan de tu enfermedad
Mueren los peces del río
mueren también los del mar
Lloran los ojos de un niño
en medio de la ciudad
Cómo ha cambiado el planeta
como ha cambiado el hogar
Silencio en todas las selvas
risas en la gran ciudad
Hay que salvar el planeta
Hay que salvar nuestro hogar
Hay que cuidar nuestra aldea
por los niños que vendrán
Flores, hormigas, ballenas
todos perdiendo el hogar
hombres, industrias, banderas
todos sin ver más allá
Hay que salvar el planeta
Hay que salvar nuestro hogar
hay que cuidar nuestra aldea
por los que niños que vendrán

Planet Schmanet
Planet Schmanet
Composer(s): Richard O'Brien
Dr. Frank-N-Furter:
I'll tell you once, I won't tell you twice
You'd better wise up, Janet Weiss
Your apple pie don't taste too nice
You'd better wise up, Janet Weiss
I've laid the seed, it should be all you need
You're as sensual as a pencil
Wound up like an 'E' or first string
When we made it, did you hear a bell ring?
You got a block, well take my advice
You'd better wise up, Janet Weiss
The Transducer will seduce ya
Janet: My feet! I can't move my feet!
Dr. Von Scott: My wheels! My God, I can't move my wheels!
Brad: It's as if we're glued to the spot!
Dr. Frank-N-Furter: You are! So quake with fear, you tiny fools!
Janet: Oh, we're trapped!
Dr. Frank-N-Furter: It's something you'll get used to
A mental mind-fuck can be nice
Dr. Van Scott: You won't find Earth people quite the easy mark you imagine
This sonic transducer - it is, I suppose, some kind of
Audio-vibratory, physiomolecular transport device
Brad: You mean...
Dr. Van Scott: Yes, Brad
It's something we ourselves have been working on for quite some time
But it seems our friend here has found a means of perfecting it
A device which is capable of breaking down solid matter and then
Projecting it through space, and who knows, perhaps even time itself
Janet: You mean, he's gonna send us to another planet?
Dr. Frank-N-Furter:
Planet, schmanet, Janet!
You'd better wise up, Janet Weiss
You'd better wise up
Build your thighs up
You'd better wise up

Sleeping Bag
Sleeping Bag
Composer(s): Billy Gibbons; Dusty Hill; Frank Beard
First release by: ZZ Top - 1985
When it's cold outside and you want to sleep in
go for a pallet that's so nice and thin
Zip it on around while it's on the ground
spread it out and lay it on down
Slip inside my sleeping bag
slip inside my sleeping bag
You're afraid of the dark, baby, no need to be shy
We'll talk about some lovin' while we look at the sky
Don't be hesitating, it'll be alright
we'll tuck it in until it's clean out of sight
Slip inside my sleeping bag
slip inside my sleeping bag
Let's go out to Egypt 'cause it's in the plan
sleep beside the pharoahs in the shifting sand
We'll look at some pyramids and check out some heads
Oh, we'll whip out our mattress 'cause there ain't no beds
Slip inside my sleeping bag
slip inside my sleeping bag

Dragon head
Machine of lead
Cadillac King
Dancer in the midnight

like a revolver
The world's the same
Well it's all right
Love is what you want

Un Train Qui Part
Un Train Qui Part
Composer(s): Boris Bergman; Bernard Liamis
First performance by: Marie - 1973
Un billet de train froissé dans une poche
Avec dans une main un livre de poche
Elle n'a que dix-huit ans, une grande valise
Des yeux bleus sur un train qui s'approche
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme une maison
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui n'a jamais connu de maison
Un train qui part
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme une chanson
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui n'entend pas chanter de chansons
À son départ
Le train bat la campagne l'emmenant vers Paris
Que pourra-t-elle y faire pour gagner sa vie?
Elle ne sait pas grand-chose, elle n'a jamais rien fait
Sinon de quitter ceux qu'elle aimait
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme une maison
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui n'a jamais connu de maison
Un train qui part
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme une chanson
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui n'entend pas chanter de chansons
À son départ
Un train qui part, c'est aussi le train de l'espoir
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui va trouver l'autre
Qui l'attend devant la gare
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme leur chanson
Un train qui part
Où tout finit et commence, comme la romance
Dans une gare
Un train qui part, c'est aussi le train de l'espoir
Un train qui part
Pour celui qui va trouver l'autre
Qui l'attend devant la gare
Un train qui part, c'est un peu comme leur chanson
Un train qui part

Performer(s): ZZ Top;
Doogie White; The Winters Brothers Band
What can I do, I'm a nervous wreck?
There's girls everywhere, I better go and check
Check it out
I can't tell a diamond from a hole in the ground
They all got my head spinning round and round
Planet of women, oh yeah
The planet of women, oh yeah
It's driving me insane
They start by acting just a little discreet
Then they're in the skies and they're in the streets
You can find them in cars or a hotel lobby
they're easy to find, just look for a body
Planet of women, oh yeah
Just a planet of women, oh yeah
It's driving me insane
If you have the answer, drop me a line today
or send a straight jacket something in a shade of gray
I think I've sprained my brain 'cause it won't unwind
Every day it's man against man on the planet of women, oh yeah
Just a planet of women, oh yeah
It's driving me insane
it's driving me insane

Sleep, My Little Jesus
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald
Sleep, my little Jesus
On Thy bed of hay
While the shepherds homeward
Journey on their way
Mother is Thy shepherd
And will her vigil keep
Did the voices wake Thee?
O sleep, my Jesus, sleep!
Softly sleep, sweetly sleep
My Jesus, sleep!
Sleep, my little Jesus
While Thou art my own!
Ox and ass Thy neighbors
Shalt Thou have a throne?
Will they call me bless?
Shall I stand and weep?
Be it far, Jehovah!
O sleep, my Jesus, sleep!
Softly sleep, sweetly sleep
My Jesus, sleep!
Sleep, my little Jesus
Wonder-baby mine!
Well the singing angels
Greet Thee as divine
Through my heart, as heaven
Low the echoes sweep
Of glory to Jehovah!
O sleep, my Jesus, sleep!
Softly sleep, sweetly sleep
My Jesus, sleep!
