A La Orilla Del Mar


A La Orilla Del Mar
Composer(s): Ernesto Cortázar - Manuel Esperón
Performer(s): Bienvenido Granda
and multiple other artists



Vengo a cantar para ti la canción que aprendí a la orilla del mar
La llevo en el corazón como el último adiós que me diste al partir
Enamorado de ti, es mi faro tu amor y mi luz tu mirar
muero de pena al partir pues yo quisiera vivir a tu lado no más

Me voy esta noche tibia y sensual
llena de calor tropical
muy solo con mi triste pena

Si tú quieres nuestro amor recordar
busca por la orilla del mar
tu nombre que grabé en la arena

Me voy pues sin ti no puedo vivir
si ya no es posible sufrir la angustia de mi soledad
adiós a la que dejó el corazón, al amor que fue mi ilusión
aquella noche tropical: adiós

Yo-Yo


Yo-Yo
Composer(s): Joe South
Performer(s): The Osmonds;
and various other artists



Ho, ho ho, just like a yo yo
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Well it's hard for me to see
how you got such a hold on me

First I'm up, and then I'm down
Then my heart goes around and around
Well, I'll bet you five dollars I'm the only fool
who'll climb up a string for you

And need I say I can't break away
you control every little thing I do
I used to be a swinger
until you wrapped me 'round your finger....

Just like a yo yo
just like a yo yo
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Turnin', turnin' love keeps a-burnin'
like a fire in my heart
when we're apart, but when we're back together
you keep changin' like the weather
Whoops! Now up and down like a yo yo
Just like a yo yo

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Where I go, and what I do
well it all just depends on you
You build me up just to let me down
But I dare not to make a sound

'Cause I'm so afraid you will cast me away
like a beat up, worn out toy
So I hold on tight with all my might
just to be your lovin' boy
No matter what you say or do
I'm gonna bounce right back to you now
just like a yo yo
Just like a yo yo

Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo
Ho, ho, ho, just like a yo yo

Yuca de San Borja

Anda burritito anda
es demonio de borrico
que no quiere caminar
por culpa de’ste borrico
el patron me va a azota’

Y sufrieron tanto
los pobres negritos
porque al poco comen
y al mucho trabajar
hasta que del cielo
vino pa’ toitos
don Ramon Castilla
santa libertad

A la molina no voy mas
porque echan azote sin cesar
A la molina no voy mas

You've Really Got A Hold On Me
Composer(s): William Robinson
Performer(s): The Miracles;
and various other artists



I don't like you
But I love you
See that I'm always
Thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh,
You treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I don't want you,
But I need you
Don't want to kiss you
But I need you
Oh, oh, oh
You do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
Another day here
Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now
I just can quit now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me

À La Moitié De La Distance


À La Moitié De La Distance
Composer(s): Claude Lemesle - Maxime LeForestier
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



À la moitié de la distance au beau milieu
de cette vie qui danse et recommence comme elle peut
à la moitié de ma chanson qui m'a le mieux suivie
la passion ou la mélancolie?

J'ai la mémoire qui me fait des histoires
et se déforme à l'ombre du passé
un rire énorme quelquefois vient effacer
le reflet sage et bien classé

À la moitié de la distance au beau milieu
d'un fado qui balance entre une avance et un aveu
à cet entracte de la pièce
Faut-il changer de peau de lumière d'auteur ou de rideaux?

À la moitié de mes dimanches
qui m'interdit de prendre ma revanche sur la farce des lundis
à mi-chemin de mes vacances au pays de la vie
parenthèse entre deux paradis

J'ai des soupirs qui m'ont fait des sourires
des éphémères que je croyais des dieux
et des délits et des délires moins délicieux
qu'un soir tendresse au coin du feu

à la moitié de la distance au beau milieu
de cette vie qui danse et manigance mes adieux
à la moitié de ma chanson
va-t-il venir enfin, le prénom qui manque à mon refrain?

Maintenant je ne recommence pas à moitié
mon cœur est en partance, tout enfance, tout entier
à la moitié de ma romance je lance un grand défi
à la plage blanche de ma vie

You've Made Me So Very Happy


You've Made Me So Very Happy
Composer(s): Berry Gordy Jr.;
Brenda Holloway; Frank Wilson
Performer(s): Blood, Sweat & Tears;
and various other artists



I lost at love before
Got mad and closed the door
But you said "try, just once more"
I chose you for the one
Now we're having so much fun
You treated me so kind
I'm about to lose my mind
You made me so very happy

The others were untrue
But when it came to loving you
I'd spend my whole life with you
Cause you came and you took control
You touched my very soul
You always showed me that
Loving you was where it's at
You made me so very happy
I'm so glad you came into my life yeah

I love you so much you see
You're even in my dreams
I can hear you, I can hear you calling me
I'm so in love with you
All I ever want to do is
Thank you baby, thank you baby

You made me so very happy
I'm so glad you came into my life
You made me so very happy
You made me so, so very happy baby
I'm so glad you came
Into my life
I want to thank you girl
Every day of my life
I want to thank you
You made me so very happy

A La Luz Del Día


A La Luz Del Día
Performer(s): León Gieco



A la luz del día
le hace falta un guardian
muchas cosas ocurren sin ser vistas
vagabundo tambaleante
maniaticos en los parques
manchas que quedan para siempre
y la vieja que durmio anoche
en el umbral de mi puerta

A la luz del día
le hace falta un guardian
muchas cosas ocurren sin ser vistas
corazon adormecido
de sentir siempre lo mismo
mucha gente que se la pasa
esperando a alguien para regresar
acompañado a su casa

You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'
Composer(s): Phil Spector; Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Cilla Black;
and various other artists



You never close your eyes any more when I kiss your lips
And there's no tenderness like before in your fingertips
Mmm, you're trying hard not to show it, baby
But baby, baby I know it

You've lost that loving feeling
Ohh that loving feeling
You've lost that loving feeling,
Now its gone, gone, gone whoaohoh

Now there's no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you
Baby you've started to criticise every every every little thing that I do
It makes me just feel like crying, baby
Cause baby, something beautiful is dying

You've lost that loving feeling
Ohh that loving feeling.
You've lost that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone , gone, whoaohoh
Baby baby, I'd get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me, love me like you used to do
You know that,
We had a love , a love, a love you don't find every day,
No no, no no, no no no no no no no
So don't, don't, don't, don't, baby don't throw it away
Na na, don't throw it away, don't throw it away
Now baby, oh baby, I beg you baby, oh baby
I beg you please, I need your love
So bring it on back, bring it back
Bring it back, bring it, bring it, bring it back

Bring back that loving feeling, o-o-oh that loving feeling
Bring back that loving feeling
Cause its gone, gone, gone
And I can't go on no more

Oh baby, yeah baby
Oh bring it on back now, hey baby
I beg you baby, oh baby
Bring it on back, bring it on back
Bring it, bring it, bring it back

Bring back that loving feeling
Ohh that loving feeling......

You've Let Yourself Go


You've Let Yourself Go
((Adapted from: Tu T'laisses Aller (Charles Aznavour) - 1960)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Marcel Stellman) Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1965 and multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages: 1962 - Mijn Ideaal (Corry Brokken) 1970 - Ti Lasci Andare (Charles Aznavour) 1982 - Du Lässt Dich Geh'n (Charles Aznavour) 2004 - Je Laat Je Gaan (Koen Crucke)



It's funny, when I look at you
While not a single word is said
I know, I had a drink or two
But that's not what's gone to my head
I laugh and I recall our youth
Perhaps you'll say that I'm uncouth
But it's high time you knew the truth
About the way you make me feel
And what the future holds in store
For I can't stand it anymore

Why should I even try and hide
Whatever I may feel inside
You lie, you curse and you provoke
And then you treat it as a joke
You know, at times you go too far
Even in front of all my friends
How could we hope to make amends
You know that you've let yourself go

You look a sight, sure you look great
Your stocking seams, not even straight
And that old faded dressing gown
Your hair in curlers hanging down
What could I have been thinking of
Was it with you I fell in love
Are you the girl that could inspire
A heart with passion and desire
I gaze at you in sheer despair
And see your Mother standing there

In front of strangers you're the same
You don't mind putting me to shame
You contradict each word I say
Why, you would turn night into day
You like to hurt me when you can
I'm just a rug and not your man
I hit the jackpot, yes, I know
You've let yourself go

At times you're cruel, beyond control
Have you no heart, have you no soul
And as I take a look at life
I realise that you're my Wife
A little effort, not much more
And things could be just as before
You know, you'ld lose a little weight
If you would watch all that you ate
A little style, a little grace
And try to show a smiling face

I couldn't hate you if I tried
I really want you by my side
So try, try and be the girl I knew
Let's really start our love anew
I want to hold you in my arms
And then surrender to your charms
Let there be fire, not just a glow
Come close to me, let yourself go

----------


Alternate Version:



It's funny, when I look at you
And see that sour and solemn face
`Cause you're a very special case
Who's driven me to drink a few
A couple more, and I feel strong
Enough to have the guts to say
That I can't stand your spiteful tongue
Nor suffer all your nasty ways
Your body, though somehow still young
Throws all my dreams and hopes away

It grabs me here, now hear me right
I'm tired of being the underdog
Tired of being pushed and shoved
With all the love-lust in my heart
I had it all, you know it now
At times I'd like to wring your neck
You've changed, you really look a wreck
Let's face it, you've let yourself go

You're such a let-down to your sex
Your stockings twisted `round your legs
That same old faded dressing gown
Your hair in curlers, hanging down
What could I have been thinking of
Was it with you I fell in love
Are you the girl that could inspire
A heart with passion and desire
I gaze at you in sheer despair
And see your Mother standing there

In front of strangers you're the same
You don't mind putting me to shame
You contradict each word I say
Ah, you can turn night into day
I hit the jackpot, what a blow
The first time that I took you out
If you had learned to shut your mouth
But God knows, you've let yourself go

At times you're cruel beyond control
You have no heart, you have no soul
But as I take a look at life
I realise that, you're my Wife
A little effort, not much more
And things could be, just as before
You know, you'd lose a little weight
If you cut out the junk you ate
A little style, a little grace
And try to show a smiling face

I couldn't hate you if I tried
If I could just have by my side
The little girl that once I knew
To make me start our love anew
I want to hold you in my arms
And then surrender to your charms
Let there be fire, not just a glow
Come close to me, let yourself go
Come close to me, let yourself go

As sung by Liza Minnelli:



So we're alone again tonight
I read a book, you watch the fight
A stifled yawn, a can of beer
What an enthralling atmosphere
And yet the sight of us this way
Helps me to say what I must say
It helps me to think a thought or two
And pass it right along to you
And just for starters you should know
I think you've let yourself go

Down through the years each sage repeats
Grass never grows on busy streets
Which might explain that balding spot
Where you would think, or wish, or not
And where's that slender youth I knew
I fear he's grown an inch or two
Not up and down my joy and pride
But more precisely side to side

When at a party, now and then
You tell the same old jokes again
Or wear a lampshade for a hat
Who could be wittier than that
With one too many you just might
Pick some unnecessary fight
Though in the morning with the Sun
You can't remember what you've done
If there's regret, it doesn't show
You know, you've let yourself go

You never care the way you dress
You stay unshaven, you look a mess
The smallest thing is too much to do
I even hold the door for you
And every rose upon the shelf
Is one that I've supplied myself
It's not the same, I'm well aware
Yet I need to see them there

I don't know why I say it now
Why I don't hold my tongue somehow
But I've this need to tell it all
No matter where the chips may fall
For as I sit and reminisce
There are so many things I miss
The reassurance of your touch
The gentle smile that said so much
You were my tender, thoughtful beau, and now

I couldn't hate you if I tried
And I still want you by my side
We'll lay things on the line
Perhaps the fault is really mine
And if it is, please tell me so
A seed replanted still can grow
Maybe that's all we need to know
Come close to me and let yourself go

A La Hora Que Se Duermen Los Trenes


A La Hora Que Se Duermen Los Trenes
Composer(s): Pedro Aznar - Jorge Lencina
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



El invierno vaga
como un perro que no encuentra hogar
Ciego se despierta
corre en los pasillos para husmear

Y entra en la noche y la apuñala sin piedad
y el silencio es su único puñal

Sabe el sitio exacto
en que los gatos van a conspirar
Camina de a ratos
ve a los charcos la luna imitar

Entonces se asoma y en calma empieza a llorar
y vestido de agua va a espiar
A la hora que se duermen los trenes
no hay secretos que le puedan guardar

You've Gotta Eat Your Spinach, Baby


You've Gotta Eat Your Spinach, Baby
Composer(s): Harry Revel; Mack Gordon
Performer(s): Shirley Temple; Alice Faye; Jack Haley;
Bunny Berigan; Tommy Dorsey; Maria Muldaur



(Jack Haley)
I want your cheeks to be rosey
Your lips like the color of wine
Darling the way that people will say that
My but you're looking so fine
Oooooooh

(Alice Faye)
I want you strong as Apollo
A sturdy and masculine sheek
Darling the way that people will say that
My what a gorgeous physique
If you want to be like I want you to be
follow this carefully:

You've gotta eat your spinach baby
That's the proper thing to do
It'll keep you kind of healthy too
And what it did for Popeye it'll do for you

You've gotta eat your spinach baby
It'll give you lots of TNT
For whenever you're caressing me
Cause you'll need lots of vitamins from A-Z
Please take my advice
Kissing is dangerous doctors all agree

(Jack Haley)
I'll take your advice
But don't ever kiss anybody but me

(Alice Faye)
You've gotta eat your spinach baby
If you do you can't go wrong
'Cause it's gonna make you nice and strong
And the stronger you are the longer you'll live
And the longer I'll have to love you

(Shirley Temple)
Pardon me did I hear you say Spinach - Spinach
I represent all the kids of the nation
Who sent me to see you about it
I bring a message from the kids of the nation
To tell you we can do without it

Kindly listen to me
I'm not alone in my plea
There are dozens and dozens and dozens of us
Nephews and nieces and cousins of us
They want me to say - Hallelujah Hallelujah

No Spinach, take away that awful greenery
No Spinach, give us lots of jelly beanery
We positively refuse to budge
We'd like lollipops, we like fudge
But no Spinach Hosanna

You've got to eat your Spinach baby
No No No No, I'm singing to you
No No No No Hallelujah
Spinach stay away from my door

We'll tell the bogey man
The big big bad bad bogey bogey man
Oh that's just a bluff
You know we don't believe that stuff

You gotta eat your Spinach baby
Children have to do as they are told
Yes Sir, yes Ma'am
Children shouldn't be so very bold
Yes Sir, yes Ma'am
Or you'll grow up to be a meanie when your old
Yes Sir, yes Ma'am

I've want to tell all the kids of the nation
Who sent me to see you about it
Children have to do as they are told
Children shouldn't be so very bold
Or you will be a meanie when you're old
So okay - Spinach

À La Campagne


À La Campagne
Composer(s): René Laquier - Étienne Lorin
Performer(s): André Bourvil



On chante tout le temps Paris, la plac' Pigalle
Les îles des tam-tam, ou les beautés fatales
Moi, j'vais chanter mes champs
Et, d'une voix trés ferme, ouvrant ma bouche en grand
Je vais chanter la ferme
La ferm' de mon pays, ses bois et ses prairies
La si jolie Julie, et mêm'sa laiterie

À la campagne, avec ma compagne
On vit bien tranquill's comm' deux in...souciants
À la campagne, avec ma compagne
On est bien heureux près de nos deux boeufs
Quand il faut semer, tous les jours on sème
Et l'soir quand on a semé, alors on s'aime
Car vous comprenez, c'est bon de s'aimer
Avec ma compagne
À la campagne

On fête aux moissons, quand les oiseaux gazouillent
Lorsqu'on tue le cochon, quell' joie de faire l'endouille
Moi j'me plais au grand air, car j'y travaille à l'aise
Et j'vis bien sur mes terres, où toujours n'vous déplaise
Des mûres muriront, des becs bécoteront
Des cri-cri crisseront, des épis ... pousseront

À la campagne, avec ma compagne
On rit j'le confess' comm' un' pair'... de fous
À la campagne avec ma compagne
On mang' à gogo, comm' deux sa.....tisfaits
Du travail aux champs, jamais on s'en lasse
Et l'soir, null'ment lassés, vite on s'enlace
Car vous comprenez, c'est bon d's'enlacer
Avec ma compagne
À la campagne

Pendant les mois creux, l'on chasse et l'on pêche
Et l'soir, quand on a pêché, alors on pêche
C'est ainsi qu'est né, né un nouveau né
Avec ma compagne
À la campagne

You've Got Your Troubles


You've Got Your Troubles
Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenway
Performer(s): The Fortunes;
and various other artists



I see that worried look upon your face
You've got your troubles, I got mine
She's found somebody else to take your place
You've got your troubles, I got mine
I too have lost my love today
All of my dreams have flown away
Now just like you I sit and wonder why
You've got your troubles, I got mine
You need some sympathy, well so do I
You've got your troubles, I got mine
She used to love me, that I know
And it don't seem so long ago
That we were walking, that we were talking
The way that lovers do
And so forgive me if I seem unkind
You've got your troubles, I got mine

(Counter: And it must seem to you, my friend
That I ain't got no pity for you
Well, that ain't true
You see I love that little girl, little girl, little girl)
I'd help another place, another time
You've got your troubles, I got mine
You've got your troubles, I got mine
You've got your troubles, I got mine

Moi, bon nègre tout noir, tout noir
De la tête aux pieds, si vous voulez voir
Venu à Paris, pensant rigoler
Mais moi bien trompé, toujours m'ennuyer
Aussi, gros chagrin, moi le dire à vous
Vouloir retourner chez nous

À la cabane bambou bambou
À la cabane bambou you!

Moi mis à la mode française
Parce que moi forcé, mais pas être à l'aise
Avec pantalon et tout le fourbi
Bretelles, faux-col et souliers vernis
Moi aime bien mieux la mode de chez nous
Avec pas de costume du tout

À la cabane bambou bambou
À la cabane bambou you!

Moi pour faire partir mon ennui
Eté Moulin-Rouge, Casino de Paris
Avoir vu petite femme chahuter beaucoup
Mais moi préférer danseuse de chez nous
Qui remuent leur bedon sens dessus dessous
Et leur gros derrière itou

À la cabane bambou bambou
À la cabane bambou you!

Pourtant emmené en m'en retournant
Jolie petite femme avec corps blanc
Moi ferai avec elle famille au complet
Petits enfants couleur café au lait
Moi, pour bien remplir mes devoirs d'époux
Lui donnerai baisers bien doux!

À la cabane bambou bambou
À la cabane bambou you!

You've Got What I Like
Composer(s): Les Chadwick;
Les Maguire; Freddie Marsden; Gerry Marsden
Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers



Your smile can make the darkness turn to light
Your eyes make gold & silver not so bright
Your hair's as soft as a summer night
You've got what I like

You say the things I always wanted to
You walk just like an angel out of the blue
And when you hold me, my life starts anew
You've got what I like

You've got the kind of lips I long to kiss
And when we go on dates now, endless bliss
You make a desert island come to life
You make the whole wide world seem free from strife
You are the one I'm gonna make my wife
You've got what I like
You've got what I like
You've got what I like

You've got the kind of lips I long to kiss
And when we go on dates now, endless bliss
You make a desert island come to life
You make the whole wide world seem free from strife
You are the one I'm gonna make my wife
You've got what I like
You've got what I like
You've got what I like

À la brigade des stups
J'suis tombé sur des cops
Ils ont cherché mon spliff
Ils ont trouvé mon paf

Y'a un ancien mataf
Qu'est complètement louf
Toujours à moitié paf

À la brigade des stups
Idée fixe la chnouf
J'ai les moules je flippe
C'est pas mon genre de trip

À la brigade des stups
C'qu'ils voulaient c'est un scoop
V'la que l'ancien mataf
M'demande un autographe

À la brigade des stups
Je leur dis j'fume que les troupes
Je suis la Betty Boop

You've Got To Learn


You've Got To Learn ((Adapted from: Il Faut Savoir (Charles Aznavour) - 1961)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Marcel Stellman Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 2005

Versions In Other Languages: 1962 - Mijn Hart Bemint Teveel (Conny Vandenbos) 1962 - Devi Sapere (Gino Paoli) 2007 - Debes Saber (Charles Aznavour)



You've got to learn to show a happy face
Although you're full of misery
You mustn't show a trace of sadness
And never look for sympathy

You've got to learn, although it's very hard
The way of pocketing your pride
And sometimes face humiliation
While you are burning up inside

Facing reality is awful hard to do
When it seems happiness is gone
You've got to learn, to hide your tears
And tell your heart life must go on

You've got to learn, to leave the table
When love is no longer being served
Just show them all that you are able
To leave without saying a word

You've got to learn, to hide your sorrow
And go on living as before
What good is thinking of tomorrow
Who knows what it may have in store?

You've got to learn, to be much stronger
At times your head should rule your heart
You've got to learn, from hard experience
And listen to the voice and sometimes pay the price

But I won't learn to live
With a broken heart

And you showed me everything there was to know of love
Time will not betray the truth
And for all the years we’ve shared I celebrate with you
For you...

Josh:
Un giorno t’ incontrai

Barbra:
And me...

Josh:
Pensai, adesso lei

Barbra:
Will be...

Josh:
D’ allora insieme noi

Both:
Forever

Both:
You are all I know of love
How could I ask for more
You’re everything I’m dreaming of
You’re all I need from love
And every star above
Spells out your name
I swear I’ll always feel the same
You’re all I want...

Barbra:
From love...

Josh:
All I want from love...

Josh:
Dimmi

Barbra:
Hmm...

Josh:
Che è per l’ eternità

Barbra:
Like a memory

Josh:
’mi terrai ad abitare nei pensieri tuoi’
Con te

Barbra:
You are my only heart

Josh:
In te

Barbra:
I loved you from the start

Josh:
Noi due

Barbra:
Together not apart

Both:
Forever...

Both:
You are all I know of love
How could I ask for more
You’re everything I’m dreaming of
You’re all I need from love
And every star above
Spells out your name
I swear I’ll always feel the same
You’re all I want...

Josh:
From love...

Both:
You’re all I want from love

Josh:
Pensami

Barbra:
I think of him

Josh:
Perche` io sogno te

Barbra:
You’ll be with me

Josh:
Due cuori ed un anima

Barbra:
My love flows free through you

Josh:
Guariti e liberi

Barbra:
I live my whole life

Josh:
I’ll live my life

Both:
To be with you
You’ll always be the one who taught me everything
My heart knows to be sure
My heart knows you
You’re all I know of love
How could I ask for more
You’re everything I’m dreaming of
You’re all I need from love

Barbra:
And every star above

Josh:
Every star above

Both:
Spells out your name
I swear I’ll always feel the same
You’re all I want...

Josh:
From love…

Barbra:
You’re all I want from love…

Both:
You’re all I know of love…

Kookie Little Paradise


Kookie Little Paradise
Composer(s): Lee Pockriss - Bob Hilliard
Performer(s): Jo Ann Campbell



Jukebox playing in the jungle
No charge, absolutely free
Soft drinks bubbling down the mountain
To the Caribbean Sea

What a kookie little paradise
What a kookie little paradise
Never was an island half as nice
As my kookie little paradise

Sports cars, one for everybody
No speed limit on the beach
But there's lots of education
Making love is what they teach

What a kookie little paradise
What a kookie little paradise
Never was an island half as nice
As my kookie little paradise

Boyfriends, any girl can have one
Girldfriends, one for every guy
Ice cream loaded with bananas
And there's always pizza pie

What a kookie little paradise
What a kookie little paradise
Never was an island half as nice
As my kookie little paradise

That's my kookie little paradise
I love my kookie little paradise
What a kookie little paradise
