You Rhyme With Everything That's Beautiful
You Rhyme With Everything That's Beautiful
Composer(s): Bert Reisfield; Michael Stoner
Performer(s): Anne Shelton;
Tommy Dorsey; Ted Heath; Kay Kyser
You rhyme with everything that's beautiful
With angels, with moonlight, with heaven and stars
With rainbow and roses and island guitars
You are a perfect rhyme with all these things
You rhyme with everything that's beautiful
With summer, with springtime, with sunsets that glow
I'm not a great poet, but this much I know
You rhyme with everything that's beautiful
With summer, with springtime, with sunsets that glow
I'm not a great poet, but this much I know
You rhyme with everything, that's beautiful
You rhyme with everything, everything, my love

Sérdu rúmbudansinn duna nú
Dönsum thví, ég og thú
Svifum létt um gólfid til og frá
Töfrabrá, logathrá
Er thad draumur eda ert thú hér
Enn í kvöld, einn med mér
Armar thínir vekja ástarbál
Unadsmál, eld í sál
Dönsum saman uns dagurinn rís
Thótt thu dyljist thví minnist ég thin
Og thín hond leidir hond mína heim
Ut í hamingjugeim
Sérdu rúmbudansinn duna nú
Dönsum thví, ég og thú
Svifum létt um gólfid til og frá
Töfrabrá, logathrá
Er thad draumur eda ert thú hér
Enn í kvöld, einn med mér
Armar thínir vekja ástarbál
Unadsmál, eld í sál
Dönsum saman uns dagurinn rís
Thótt thu dyljist thví minnist ég thin
Og thín hond leidir hond mína heim
Ut í hamingjugeim

Swansea Town
Composer(s): John Davies
Performer(s): Max Boyce
and multiple other artists
I'm going home to Swansea town
The day is almost dawning
I'm going back to those sea port sounds
One lovely sea town morning
I'm going home to Swansea town,
To where those ways are brambled
'Neath the seatown sky, where seagulls fly
And as a boy I rambled
Long years ago I sailed away
The urge to roam came creeping
Yet somehow my heart got left behind
With a girl who stood there weeping

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up... to more than I can be

You Put Something Better Inside Of Me
You Put Something Better Inside Of Me
Composer(s): Joe Egan; Gerry Rafferty
Performer(s): Stealers Wheel;
Roger Daltrey; Ted Neeley; Gerry Rafferty
You put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
I could look out the window or stare at the wall
But really it didn't matter, no, I just didn't care at all
Could be sitting by the water, counting every stone
'Cause nothing means nothing when you're empty and on your own
But you put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
Makes me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me
Well, I knew what I was doing, I was running away
Busy going nowhere, just wasting the time of day
Walking down the road, kicking up the stones
Nothing means nothing when you're empty and on your own
But you put something better inside of me
You put something better inside of me
Makes me so much stronger
I'm amazed at the change in me

You Pull My Tongue Out
You Pull My Tongue Out
Composer(s): Carl Finch
Performer(s): Brave Combo
You make me love you
I don't want to
You make me love you
When I don't even want you around
You hold my head back
And pull my tongue out
You make me kiss you
And smile when I'd rather frown
You make me think I'm happy
But I'm much too smart
'Cause just about the time I'm into you
just about the time I'm hearing you
just about the time I can't leave you
You leave me with a broken heart
So turn your light off
don't tempt me
Turn your light off
Whenever I'm passing by
You make me love you
I don't want to
You make me love you
And smile when I'd rather cry
You make me think I'm happy
But I'm much too smart
'Cause just about the time I'm into you
just about the time I'm feeling you
just about the time I can't leave you
You leave me with a broken heart.
HEY!
So turn your light off
Don't tempt me
Turn your light off
Whenever I'm passing by
You hold my head back
And pull my tongue out
You make me kiss you
And smile when I'd rather cry
You make me think I'm happy
But I'm much too smart
'Cause just about the time I'm into you
just about the time I'm feeling you
just about the time I can't leave you
You leave me with a broken heart!
OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Yeah!

Swanee Blues
Swanee Blues
Composer(s): J. Milton Decamp - Frank Goodman
Performer(s): J. Milton Decamp
I've seen the Swanee River flow along
I've heard a Swanee bird sing out it's song
To you that may be just a melody
But its beautiful music to me
The Swanee Moon that's shining up above
Just seems to bless my Swanee home with love
My Swanee friends were always true
The name of Swanee makes me blue
I've been away so very long it seems
But I'm in Swanee every night in dreams
Why must I be wandering all around
Down in Swanee there's happiness found
I've longed to breathe that Swanee atmosphere
Where smiling faces filled my heart with cheer
More fragrant is the Swanee Rose
Than any other flow'r that grows
I always seem to get the Swanee Blues
When my Mammy sends me Southern news
My heart beats so fast I find
Dixie scenes are on my mind
I can't stay longer, something stronger
Calls me to that Swanee shore
there's a "Bay of Sunshine" whom I long to see
She has made the Swanee, Paradise to me
So there is no more time to lost
And I'll shake my wand'ring shoes
for I am going back to cure my Swanee Blues

Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart
Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart
Composer(s): James F. Hanley
Performer(s): Judy Garland;
and various other artists
(Intro)
Never could carry a tune, never knew where to start
You came along when everything was wrong and put a song in my heart
Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody
It haunted me from the start
Something inside of me started a symphony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
Your eyes made skies seem blue again
What else could I do again
But keep repeating through and through
"I love you, love you"
I still recall the thrill, guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody devine
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
(instrumental)
Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody
It haunted me from the start
Something inside of me started a symphony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart
Your eyes made skies seem blue again
What else could I do again?
But keep repeating through and through
"I love you, love you"
I still recall the thrill, I guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody devine
Zing! Oh, Oh, Oh went the strings of my heart

I've been away from you a long time
I never thought I'd miss you so
Somehow I feel, your love was real

Among the folks in D-I-X-I even know my
Mammy's waitin' for me prayin' for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up North will see me no more
When I go to the Swanee shore
Swanee, Swanee I am coming back to Swanee
Mammy, Mammy, I love the old folks at home
Swanee how I love ya, how I love ya
My dear old Swanee
I'd give the world to be among the folks in

Zoum, Zoum, Zoum
Italian & Spanish Title:
Zum, Zum, Zum
Composer(s):
Antonio Amurri; Armand Canfora
Performer(s): Dalida
Déjà il vous est arrivé
D'entendre comme
un air de fête
Ce refrain qui dans votre tête
Fait du tintamarre
comme une fanfare
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
C'est une chanson qui trotte dans la tête
On ne sait où elle commence où elle s'arrête
Mais sans fin elle revient
Et vous poursuit soir et matin
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Je sais bien que mes amis la trouvent bête
Et pourtant chacun leur tour ils la répètent
Au téléphone ou dans la rue
Allo bonjour comment vas-tu
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Cela devient une obsession
Qui dès le matin me dévore
Et chaque nuit c'est pire encore
Car je dis je t'aime en chantant quand même
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
C'est une chanson qui trotte dans ma tête
Je ne sait où elle commence où elle s'arrête
Mais sans fin elle revient et me poursuit soir et matin
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Je ne sais d'où elle vient mais quand j'y pense
Je revois les marronniers de mon enfance
Et dans la rue un cœur d'enfant
Sortant de l'école en chantant
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
{Instrumental}
Quand une chanson vous trotte dans la tête
On ne sait où ça commence où ça s'arrête
Je crois bien que dès demain
Chacun reprendra mon refrain
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum, zoum, zoum
Zoum, zoum

Zoveel mooier
Altijd mooier
Steeds maar weer (steeds maar weer)

Mooi kan nog veel mooier zijn
Voor wie de pracht ervan wil zien
Te goed kan zoveel beter zijn
Alleen moet jij dit willen zien
Oeh, rood kan nog veel rooier
Geef zelf de glans aan iedere kleur
Met een beetje goed humeur

Loop door 't leven met een groot penseel
Voeg er hier en daar wat vreugde bij
Als jij je kaarten dan goed speelt
Dan kan mooi nog zoveel mooier voor je zijn
Zoveel mooier
Altijd mooier
Steeds maar weer (steeds maar weer)
Oeh, steeds maar weer (steeds maar weer)
Mooi kan zoveel mooier zijn
Als jij er zelf ook wat voor doet
Jij kan ook gelukkig zijn
Maar ga, ga geluk dan tegemoet
Oh, ga tot leven als een tovenaar
Die de dingen altijd mooier maakt
Wees een vriend voor al die van je houdt
En mooi zal zoveel mooier
Mooi zal nog veel mooier
Mooi zal zoveel mooier voor je zijn
Zoveel mooier
Altijd mooier
Altijd mooier
Altijd mooier
