Heartbreaker, the cutest Gal in town
You heartbreaker, boys follow you around
You think that you are having your fling
Making hearts dance just like puppets on a string
You heartbreaker
You'll be the lonely one when all your fun is through
So be careful what you do when you break a heart in two
For that heart may belong to you

Harper Valley P.T.A.
Harper Valley P.T.A.
Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
Performer(s): Jeannie C. Riley
I want to tell you all a story 'bout a Harper Valley widowed wife
Who had a teenage daughter who attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play
She said, "Mom, I got a note here from the Harper Valley P.T.A."
The note said, "Mrs. Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high
It's reported you've been drinking and a-runnin' 'round with men and going wild
And we don't believe you ought to be bringing up your little girl this way"
It was signed by the secretary, Harper Valley P.T.A.
Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon
They were sure surprised when Mrs. Johnson wore her mini-skirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard, I still recall the words she had to say
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A."
Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there and seven times he's asked me for a date
Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away
And Mr. Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep her window shades all pulled completely down?
Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here 'cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath, you'll find she's had a little nip of gin
Then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit
Well, this is just a little Peyton Place and you're all Harper Valley hypocrites
No I wouldn't put you on because it really did, it happened just this way
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.

Heartbreaker (Led Zeppelin)
Heartbreaker
Composer(s): John Bonham; John Paul Jones;
Jimmy Page; Robert Plant
Performer(s): Led Zeppelin
Hey fellows, have you heard the news
You know that Annie's back in town
It won't take long just watch an' see
How the fellows lay their money down
Her style is new but the face the same
As it was so long ago
But from her eyes, a different smile
Like that of one who knows
Well, it's been ten years and maybe more
Since I first set eyes on you
The best years of my life gone by
Here I am alone and blue
Some people cry and some people die
By the wicked ways of love
But I'll just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the Lord above
People talking all around
'Bout the way you left me flat
I don't care what the people say
I know where their jive is at
One thing I do have on my mind
If you can clarify, please do
It's the way you call me another guy's name
When I try to make love to you, yeah-uh
I try to make love, they know you
Give it to me, give it
Ooh, work so hard I couldn't unwind
Get some money saved
Abuse my love a thousand times
However hard I tried
Heartbreaker, your time has come
Can't take your evil way
Go away, heartbreaker
Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker

Harold The Frog
Harold The Frog
Performer(s): Captain Beaky
Harold, a rather lonely frog
With spotted manly chest
Lived in a wet and squelchy bog
And always looked depressed
He couldn't get a froggy date
Although he'd try each night
But when he'd squelch behind a girl
She'd just leap off in fright
A wallflower at the local hop
He'd dance 'til dawn alone
(two three four)
Quick quick slow quick
Plop plop plop
Then squelch his way back home
Reflecting in his private pool
On his unhappy fate,
He wondered why on earth it was
He couldn't get a date...
His friends all knew the reason why
But friends don't like to tell
A frog who's got and doesn't know
A wet and boggy smell
A frog who's got a wet and boggy smell

Out On My Own
Out On My Own
Composer(s): Dirk-Jan Vermeij - André Remkes
First performance by: Michelle - 2001
Closing the door, leaving behind all that has been
No turn around, life begins out on my own
Follow the sun from day to day, free as a bird
Now is the time to spread my wings out on my own
Come to the conclusion I am in control
Take it with my body and my soul
I can fly over mountains, over seas
I never felt so free in the choices of my life
I can fly over mountains, over seas
I never felt so free in the choices of my life
Closing the door, leaving behind all that has been
Now is the time to spread my wings out on my own
Come to the conclusion I am in control
Take it with my body and my soul
I can fly over mountains, over seas
I never felt so free in the choices of my life
I can fly over mountains, over seas
I never felt so free in the choices of my life
Free in the choices of my life
Free in the choices of my life

Heartbreaker
Composer(s): Mark Farner
Performer(s): Grand Funk Railroad
Once I had a little girl, sometimes I think about her
But, buddy, you know she's not really there
When memories do call, I just, I just can't live without her
But tryin' all the time is so hard to bear
Chorus:
Heartbreaker, can't take her
Heartbreaker, bringing me down
Heartbreaker, can't take her
Heartbreaker, bringing me down
I don't cry no more, I live while I'm flying
But I'll think back, and you can hear me say

Harmony Constant
Harmony Constant
Composer(s): Fred Myrow; Michael Nesmith
Performer(s): Michael Nesmith
Quietly perusing my state of affairs
With nothing apparently wrong
A silent and quiet restoration occurs
Of emotions forgotten and gone
Then, slowly my eyes start an effortless rise
Exposing the past to review
And the Harmony Constant in all of these things
Is the thought of the future with you
Unlimited joy, unlimited time
And the beauty of infinite light
Unlimited freedom that's rightfully mine
And is yours is unlimited life
The concept of love has ultimate might
The power of peace and truth
And the Harmony Constant in all of these things
Is the thought of the future with you
Unlimited joy, unlimited time
And the beauty of infinite light
Unlimited freedom that's rightfully mine
And is yours is unlimited life
The concept of loving has ultimate might
The power of peace and truth
And the Harmony Constant in all of these things
Is the thought of the future with you

Spanish Flea
Spanish Flea
((Adapted from: Spanish Flea (by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass) - 1965))
Composer(s): Julius Wechter
Performer(s): Allan Sherman
It's good to be a Spanish flea
The Spanish dogs all scratch at me
I make my home in a spaniel
Called Jose or Manuel
Or Juan
And I wouldn't put you on
My summer place is some great dane
In Barcelona, northern Spain
And though it rains in July
I keep dry way up high
'Cause the rain
Falls mainly in the plain
Ah, but in the wintertime
I find a cozy Saint Bernard
Up the Spanish Alps we climb
Complete with anti-freeze
More brandy, please
I've got a sweetheart flea, cute kid
Lives on a beagle near Madrid
If she can sublet her beagle
I'll make her my legal
First wife
And we'll live a dog's life
But if she refuses me
I'm gonna shout, "Who cares!"
And move somewheres
Perchance I'll fly to southern France
Where any flea can find romance
I'll pack my kit and caboodle
And find me a poodle
And dance
'Scuse me, Rover, which way's France?

Heartbreaker (Dionne Warwick)
Heartbreaker
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
I got to say it and it’s hard for me
You got me cryin’ like I thought I would never be
Love is believin’, but you let me down
How can I love you when you ain’t around
And I get to the morning and you never call
Love should be everything or not at all
And it don’t matter what ever you do
I made a life out of lovin’ you
Only to find any dream that I follow is dying
I’m cryin’ in the rain
I could be searchin’ my world for a love everlasting
Feeling no pain
When will we meet again
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is it a lesson that I never knew
Gotta get out of the spell that I’m under
My love for you
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
When I was bein’ what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted has passed me by
This world may end, not you and I
My love is stronger than the universe
My soul is cryin’ for you and that cannot be reversed
You made the rules and you could not see
You made a life out of hurtin’ me
Out of my mind, I am held by the power of you, love
Tell me when do we try
Or should we say goodbye
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
When I was bein’ what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
Has passed me by
Oh...oh...oh...
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is it a lesson that I never knew
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
My love for you, oh, oh, oh
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
When I was bein’ what you want me to be
Suddenly everything I ever wanted
Has passed me by, tell me
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker
Is it a lesson that I never knew

The time has come, let us begin
With all our voices joining in
To sing of love and brotherhood
People doing what they should to
Help there fellow man decree
And fill this land with harmony

Making sounds, never heard before

Sing away the hurt and fear
A great new dream will soon be here
Like the shepherd guards his sheep
Watch your children as they sleep
Like the potter turns his clay
Help to shape a better day, and
Let us sing a song of love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Love will fill the hearts of men
Peace will come on earth once again

A great new dream will soon be here
Harmony! Harmony!

Sing of love, and brotherhood
And people doing what they should

All To You
All To You
Composer(s): Dave Moskin
First performance by: The Rounder Girls - 2000
I never was the one to carry on
But everything is different since you came along
In the middle of something special, I never felt this way before
Now I need a little time to understand a little more
I can't explain the way you made me feel (Made me feel)
Or the moment that my heart began to reel (Reel)
You took me in a new direction, you're showin' me a different way (Different way)
Now I'm in a situation, I will be the one to say
Why don't you take me, my baby
Hold me for all time and never leave me, believe me
Let me be your one and only
Love me like you do and let me give my lovin' all to you
Oh yeah...
Now I know it's love, and that's a fact (That's a fact)
No return, there is no goin' back (No, no, no, no)
It might be the way you make me crazy, you always take my breath away
And now there's only one thing, baby, that there's left for me to say
Why don't you take me, my baby
Hold me for all time and never leave me, believe me
I will always be by your side
Always on my mind, my baby, take me
And everything I feel is from the bottom of my heart (Yeah...)
I'll give you everything I have, I'll give you what you never had
Why don't you take me, my baby
Hold me for all time and never leave me, believe me
I will always be by your side
Always on my mind, you take what's wrong and make it right
I really need you, to feel you
Wrap me in your arms, surround me sweetly, completely
Let me be your one and only
Love me like you do, just let me give my lovin' all to you
Let me give my lovin' all to you

Heartbreak In Silhouette
Heartbreak In Silhouette
Composer(s): Carey Fraley; Peggy Ann Manson; Allen McCoy
Performer(s): Jim Reeves
I listened to an old friend describe the girl he'd met
In memory I could see her, heartbreak in silhouette
He said her hair was golden, her eyes were violet
It surely had to be her, heartbreak in silhouette
He said that when he kissed her, her kisses were like wine
And suddenly I wondered if she'd break his heart like mine
But I sat there in silence and smoked my cigarette
His heart would soon discover heartbreak in silhouette
With shining eyes he told me about the night they'd met
My own heart kept remembering heartbreak in silhouette
Outside the rain kept falling, recalling old regrets
Then she stood in the doorway, heartbreak in silhouette
At first she didn't see us, because the lights were dim
As she chatted with her new love, she had eyes for only him
My friend sat that there in silence and not one word was said
Two broken hearts were sharing heartbreak in silhouette
Heartbreak in silhouette

Harmony (Anne Murray)
Harmony
Composer(s): Mark Spiro; Tony Marty; Jack White
Performer(s): Anne Murray
I never thought we would end up together, my love
I always thought I'd be lonely forever, my love
Every song was just a melody
Until you came singin' what you sang to me
Chorus:
Harmony, two part love
You and me just one on one
Harmony, you do the sweetest things
You took me up to heaven
Now I can hear the angels sing
No way around it
We had to be one of a kind
My love
Just look at the way that we shine
My love
We turned a love into a symphony
I can hear it everytime that you look at me
Chorus
Sweet and tenderly
Whispering in my ear
Voices of love start talking to me
When you're near
And all I can hear
Is your
Chorus

Well since my baby left me
Well I found a new place to dwell
Well it's down at the end of Lonely Street
That Heartbreak Hotel, where I'll be...
I'll be just so lonely baby
Well I'm so lonely
I'll be so lonely I could die
Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom, and be so...
They'll be just so lonely baby
They'll be just so lonely
Well they're so lonely they could die
Now, the bell hop's tears keep flowin'
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well they've been so long on Lonely Street
They'll never, never look back, and they'll be...
They'll be just so lonely, baby
Well they're so lonely
Well they're so lonely they could die
Well now, if your baby leaves you
You've got a tale to tell
Well just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel, where you will be...
You'll be so lonely baby
Well you'll be lonely
You'll be so lonely you could die
Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom, and be so...
They'll be just so lonely baby
Well they're so lonely
Well they're so lonely they could die

Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je n'reconnais plus personne
En Harley Davidson
J'appuie sur le starter
Et voici que je quitte la terre
J'irai peut-être au Paradis
Mais dans un train d'enfer
Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je ne reconnais plus personne
En Harley Davidson
Et si je meurs demain
C'est que tel était mon destin
Je tiens bien moins à la vie
Qu'à mon terrible engin
Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je ne reconnais plus personne
En Harley Davidson
Quand je sens en chemin
Les trépidations de ma machine
Il me monte des désirs
Dans le creux de mes reins
Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je ne reconnais plus personne
En Harley Davidson
Je vais à plus de cent
Et je me sens à feu et à sang
Que m'importe de mourir

Millennium Of Love
Millennium Of Love
Composer(s): Gerry Simpson - Raymond J. Smyth
First performance by: Eamonn Toal - 2000
Nature's child lays beside a mother's broken heart
We stand denied the power and glory
Bitterness can't feed the hungry, hate just leaves us cold
It's time to change it
I lit a candle in a dream I thought I heard
Liberated voices crying freedom
Open hearts, open doors in truth and honesty
Let wisdom be the guiding light
Celebrate the new millennium of love
Where our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe we all have the answer
A cloud can hide a mountain
And a face can hide the pain
Search until you find the answer
There is no reason
Who can understand man's inhumanity to man?
Celebrate the new millennium of love
Where our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe in you
(Celebrate the new millennium of love)
Let our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe we all have the answer
I believe we all have the answer
