You Can Depend On Me


You Can Depend On Me
Composer(s): Charles Carpenter;
Louis Dunlap; Earl Hines
Performer(s): Brenda Lee



Though you say we're through
I'll always love you
And you can depend on me
Though someone that you've met
Has made you forget
Honey, you know you can count on me

When I wish, I wish you success
And loads, loads of happiness
But baby, I gotta confess
I'll be lonely
If you ever, if you ever need a friend
I'll be yours until the end
And you can depend on me

I wish you success
And loads of happiness
But, darling, I gotta confess
I'm gonna be lonely

Oh if you ever, if you ever need a friend
I'll be right by your side 'til the end
And you can depend on me
You can depend on me...

Composer(s): Lincoln Chase
First release by: The Drifters & Clyde McPhatter - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists



'T was a night mmmmm, what a night it was
It really was such a night
The moon was bright, Oh how bright it was
It really was such a night
The night was alive, with the stars above mmmm
When she kissed me, I had to fall in love
It was a kiss mmmm, what a kiss it was
It really was such a kiss
How she could kiss, Oh what a kiss it was
It really was such a kiss
Just part of her lips, could set me afire
I I I reminice, and I feel desire
I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember
Oh that night, Oh what a night it was
It really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and my love
And the night was gone
But I'll never forget that kiss in the moonlight
Such a kiss oh such a night
I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I'll always remember
Oh what a night, Oh what a night it was
It really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I know I'll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Such a kiss oh oh such a night
Now she's gone, gone, gone
Yes she's gone, gone, gone
Came the dawn, dawn, dawn
And the night was gone
And my heart was gone
And her love was gone
And before that morn
Oh oh oh oh such a night

Let's talk it over, let's get get it straight
Don't let th' situation escalate

You know that night life ain't such fun
Now don't wait up for me 'cause I know you need your rest, sweetheart
But don't you worry baby you can count on me to do my part

Such A Groovy Guy


Such A Groovy Guy
Composer(s): Weird Al Yankovic
Performer(s): Weird Al Yankovic



I got my alligator boots, I wear my pants skin tight
I wear my dark sunglasses in the middle of the night
And when I look in the mirror, oh it's such an awesome sight
It makes me want to kneel down and pray

I'm so adorable and charming
I'm sure that you can see
And everybody's always tryin' to hang around with me
They tell me I'm the greatest, and it's hard to disagree
'Cause I'm so perfect in every way

And I'm so cute
I can hardly stand it
And I'm so handsome, honey, I could just die
I know you'll never be as wonderful as me
But at least you can try

‘Cause I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy

Baby, are you in the mood for a little romance
Well, for starters I could pour some chocolate pudding down your pants
And then attach electrodes to your brain and watch you dance
Well, golly, wouldn't that be fun

Oh, and then I might decide to tie you up with dental floss
I'll make you wear a harness, and I'll show you who's the boss
Of course, if you refuse, well honey, it's your loss
I mean, I don't do this with just anyone

So baby, how can you say its all over
So how can you tell me goodbye
So now you tell me that you're leavin' me for good
And all I wanna know is why
I mean, after all

I'm really such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy

I mean you could do worse

I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm just such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)

Baby, I tell you I'm such a groovy guy, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy, such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Such a groovy guy, such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm such a groovy guy, such a groovy, groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Yeah, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
I'm really such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Such a groovy guy, I'm such a groovy guy (such a groovy guy)
Such a groovy guy (whoo)
Yeah

You can cling to me

Claire:
As the cling film told the pie
You can cling to me

Ozzie:
When through a lot of foolery
You lost your last red cent

I'd pawn my mothers jewellery
I'd steal my sister rent
It's all for you kid
You can milk me dry

All:
You can milk me dry
You can milk me dry

Ozzie:
as the cow to the farmer said

We bothe would be in paradise indeed
If rescue cam you only shout at them

Honey In The Honeycomb


Honey In The Honeycomb
Composer(s): Vernon Duke - John LaTouche
Performer(s): Katherine Dunham
and multiple other artists



What have I got
That the others ain't
That always seems to please
Take my perfume, or my fancy pants
But when I charm
The men all swarm
Just like they was bees

There's Honey in the honeycomb
There's sugar in the cane
There's oysters and there real oysters, too
and bubbles in sweet champaigne

There's jelly in the jelly roll
and sap in every tree
There's honey in honeycomb
and honey, there is love in me

Oh, there's honey in the honeycomb
then honey, there is love in me

You Can Close Your Eyes


You Can Close Your Eyes
Composer(s): James Taylor
Performer(s): James Taylor;
and various other artists



Well the sun is surely sinking down
But the moon is slowly rising
So this old world must still be spinning 'round
And I still love you

(Chorus)
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's all right
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone

It won't be long before another day
We gonna have a good time
And no one's gonna take that time away
You can stay as long as you like

(Chorus)

Sucedio En La Barranca


Sucedio En La Barranca
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): Grupo Laberinto
and multiple other artists



Voy a cantar un corrido
que traigo prendido
en el fondo de mi alma
es la desgracia de un hombre
que fue muy mi amigo
y murió en la barranca

Era rival en amores
de un hombre muy macho
que siempre ganó
se disputaban a Rosa
la niña más chula
de aquella región

Se citaron la noche más negra
y al barranco acudieron los dos
eran las diez de la noche
en la vieja capilla que está en el panteón
cuando sonaron dos tiros
y un hombre sin vida
a barranco cayó

Hoy han pasado dos años
y aquel buen amigo ya nadie recuerda
hoy adornaron la iglesia
se casa Rosita, estamos de fiesta

Sale vestida de blanco
más linda que nunca camino al altar
mientras yo sé que en la cárcel
un hombre muy macho se piensa matar

Yo por eso lecanto a la vida
yo por eso no creo en el amor

Eran las diez de la noche
en la vieja capilla que está en el panteón
cuando en la cárcel del pueblo
sonaron dos tiros y un hombre murió

You Can Call Me Al


You Can Call Me Al
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Paul Simon;
and various other artists



A man walks down the street
He says why am I soft in the middle now
Why am I soft in the middle
The rest of my life is so hard
I need a photo-opportunity
I want a shot at redemption
Don't want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard
Bonedigger Bonedigger
Dogs in the moonlight
Far away my well-lit door
Mr. Beerbelly Beerbelly
Get these mutts away from me
You know I don't find this stuff amusing anymore
If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al

A man walks down the street
He says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention
And wo my nights are so long
Where's my wife and family
What if I die here
Who'll be my role-model
Now that my role-model is
Gone Gone
He ducked back down the alley
With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl
All along along
There were incidents and accidents
There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al
Call me Al

A man walks down the street
It's a street in a strange world
Maybe it's the Third World
Maybe it's his first time around
He doesn't speak the language
He holds no currency
He is a foreign man
He is surrounded by the sound
The sound
Cattle in the marketplace
Scatterlings and orphanages
He looks around, around
He sees angels in the architecture
Spinning in infinity
He says Amen! and Hallelujah!

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al
Call me Al

Succès Fou


Succès Fou
Composer(s): Christophe
Performer(s): Christophe



Elle reviendra à la tombée du jour
J'mettrais mes gants blancs
C'est mon style, différent
De tous les autres
Elle ça lui plaît
Et nous danserons cha-cha-cha

Avec les filles j'ai un succès fou
Le charme ça fait vraiment tout
Un p'tit clin d'œil pour un rendez-vous

Elle reviendra ou peut-être qu'elle me téléphonera
Pour me dire qu'elle ne m'oublie pas
Qu'elle n'oublie pas cette soirée dans mes bras
Les mots d'amour ça lui plaît

Avec les filles j'ai un succès fou
Le charme ça fait vraiment tout
Un p'tit clin d'œil pour un rendez-vous

Avec les filles j'ai un succès fou
Le charme ça fait vraiment tout
Un p'tit clin d'œil pour un rendez-vous

You Can Be Sure


You Can Be Sure
Composer(s): Peter Frampton; Kevin Savigar
Performer(s): Peter Frampton



You don't have to be a dreamer
To see a better day
You have to be a believer
Just to find a better way
Don't sit in your seclusion
Safely watching from afar

I, don't know why (ooh)
We don't learn from what's gone by
You can be sure
I'll be with you till the end
You take my word
More than this I can promise you (yeah, yeah)

You know, when you feel defenceless
And it brings you to your knees
Don't keep on retreating
What can I do to make you see?

I, don't know why
We don't learn from what's gone by
You can be sure
I'll be with you till the end
You take my word
More than this I can promise you (yeah)

I, don't know why
We don't learn from what's gone by
You can be sure
I'll be with you till the end
You take my word
More than this I can promise you

You can be sure
I'll be with you till the end
Please take my word
Don't you know, you can count on me?
I will always be
there for you

Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
Tonight was meant to be
Hold me in your arms, thrill me with your charms
Your lips were meant for me
Never let me go, suddenly I know

With every kiss my head is spinning
This is the moment I've waited for
Tonight is only the beginning
Hold me in your arms forevermore

Hold me in your arms
Tonight was meant to be

You Can All Join In


You Can All Join In
Composer(s): Dave Mason
Performer(s): Traffic; Dave Mason



Here's a little song you can all join in with
It's very simple and I hope it's new
Make your own words up if you want to
Any old words that you think will do

Yellow, blue, what'll I do?
Maybe I'll just sit here thinking
Black, white, stop the fight
Does one of these colours ever bother you?

Here's a little dance you can all join in with
It's very simple and I hope it's new
Make your own steps up if you want to
Any old steps that you think will do

Left, right, don't get uptight
Keep in line and you'll be alright
Clap hands, move around
Make sure no one puts you down

Here's a little world you can all join in with
It's very simple and I hope it's new
Make your own life up if you want to
Any old life that you think will do

Love you, it's nothing new
There's someone much worse off than you are
Help me set them free
Just be what you want to be

You Came A Long Way From St. Louis
Composer(s): Bob Russell; John Benson Brooks
Performer(s): Peggy Lee;
and various other artists



You came a long way from St. Louis
you climbed the ladder of success
I've seen the town and country cars
that were parked out in front of your fancy address

You came a long way from St. Louis
you broke a lotta hearts between
I've seen a gang of gloomy gals
who were doing alright till you came on the scene

You came here from the middle west
and certainly impressed the population hereabouts
Well, baby, I got news for you
I'm from Missouri too

So natcherly I got my doubts
you got `em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
but baby, you still got a long way to go

Suburbano Coraçáo


Suburbano Coraçáo
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Cida Moreyra



Quem vem lá
Que horas são
Isso não são horas, que horas são
É você, é o ladrão
Isso não são horas, que horas são
Quem vem lá
Blim blem blão
Isso não são horas, que horas são

A casa está bonita
A dona está demais
A última visita
Quanto tempo faz
Balançam os cabides
Lustres se acenderão
O amor vai pôr os pés
No conjugado coração
Será que o amor se sente em casa
Vai sentar no chão Será que vai deixar cair
A brasa no tapete coração

Quando aumentar a fita
As línguas vão falar
Que a dona tem visita
E nunca vai casar
Se enroscam persianas
Louças se partirão
O amor está tocando
O suburbano coração
Será que o amor não tem programa
Ou ama com paixão
Mulher virando no sofá
Sofá virando cama coração
O amor já vai embora
Ou perde a condução
Será que não repara
A desarrumação
Que tanta cerimônia
Se a dona já não tem
Vergonha do seu coração

I can't forget the night I met you
That's all I'm thinking of
And now you call it madness
But I call it love
You made a promise to be faithful
By all the stars above
And now you call it madness
I still call it love
My heart is beating,It keeps on repeating
For you constantly
You're all I'm needing
And so I'm pleading
"Please come back to me!"
You made a plaything out of romance!
What do you know of love?
That's why you call it madness
But I call it love

Suburban Dream


Suburban Dream
Composer(s): Mark Gane
Performer(s): Martha & The Muffins



Strolling through the plaza in the coal twilight
Sucking on a synthic shake
Hidden in the ambient, florescent night
High school boys are on the make

Muscle cars are floating down the treeless streets
Blaring heavy-metal radio
Slimy Burger chateaux everywhere I turn
Basking in a neon glow

Faraway the CN Tower silhouette Flashing through the downtown haze
Thinking 'bout pollution puts me in a sweat
The price the city-dweller pays!

Suburban Dream -- You won't get mugged
Suburban Dream -- No cockroach bugs
Suburban Dream -- It's really true Suburban Dream -- Everybody's like you!

The Smiths have bought a swimming pool for twenty grand
The Jones' eldest son has caught the flu
Cindy, in a search for love got pregnant and
Her parents are discussing what to do

Talking 'bout the weather to the guy next door
Hanging out in modern bars
Hockey Night in Canada is such a bore
Since the old man bought a brand new car

Who needs the city's rotting culture, rising crime?
Here the air is squeaky clean
Television living takes up all my time
Making the suburban dream

Suburban Dream -- It's really nice
Suburban Dream -- Take my advice
Suburban Dream -- The only way
Suburban Dream -- C'mon over today

You Call Everybody Darling Composer(s): Sam Martin - Ben Trace - Clem Watts First recording/First release by: Jack Smith - 1947 Covered by multiple other artists



Though you're always waxing sentimental Your sweet words are all I ever hear You don't really give a Continental And deep down in your heart you're not sincere You call everybody Darlin' And everybody calls you Darlin', too You don't mean what you're sayin' It's just a game you're playin' But you'll find someone else can play The game as well as you If you call everybody Darlin' Then love won't come a-knockin' at your door And as the years go by You'll sit and wonder why Nobody calls you Darlin' anymore
