We Can Fly
We Can Fly
Composer(s): Bill Cowsill; Steve Duboff; Artie Kornfeld
Performer(s): The Cowsills; Loveletter
See how the fluffy clouds move by us
(See how the clouds move by)
See how the morning mist can hide us away, (hide us away)
And how the day (and how it's) is so much fun!
Isn't it groovy in a daydream? (Dreaming today)
Doesn't it seem the day could never end? (Could never end)
And so, my friend, we're one
Baby, it's funny how I can feel so sunny?
When you're beside me, we can fly!
Oh, we can fly!
Hey, Mr. Wind, just keep us sailing
(Keep us sailing along)
High in the sky, there's no curtaining our fun
So everyone, come on!
Hey, you on the ground!
Take a look up, and see what we've found!
Nothing to tie us, bluebirds come up to guide us
When you're beside me, we can fly!
Oh, we can fly!
We can fly!
Hey!
Everyone on the ground, let's fly!

Abdul Abulbul Amir
Abdul Abulbul Amir (aka The Ballad Of Ivan Petrofsky Skevar)
(Adapted from: Abdulla Bulbul Ameer)
Composer(s): William Percy French
Performer(s): Frank Crumit - 1928
and multiple other artists
The sons of the Prophet are brave men and bold
And quite unaccustomed to fear
But the bravest by far in the ranks of the Shah
Was Abdul Abulbul Amir
If you wanted a man to encourage the van
Or harass the foe from the rear
Storm fort or redoubt, you had only to shout
For Abdul Abulbul Amir
Now the heroes were plenty and well known to fame
In the troops that were led by the Czar
And the bravest of these was a man by the name
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skavar
One day this bold Russian, he shouldered his gun
And donned his most truculent sneer
Downtown he did go where he trod on the toe
Of Abdul Abulbul Amir
"Young man," quoth Abdul, "Has life grown so dull
That you wish to end your career?
Vile infidel know, you have trod on the toe
Of Abdul Abulbul Amir"
"So take your last look at the sunshine and brook
And send your regrets to the Czar
For by this I imply, you are going to die
Count Ivan Skavinsky Skavar"
"My friend, your remarks in the end
Will avail you but little, I fear
For you ne'er will survive to repeat them alive
Mister Abdul Abulbul Amir"
Then this bold Mameluke drew his trusty skibouk
Singing, "Allah! Il Allah! Al-lah!"
And with murderous intent he ferociously went
For Ivan Skavinsky Skavar
They parried and thrust, they side-stepped and cussed
Of blood they spilled a great part
The philologist blokes, who seldom crack jokes
Say that hash was first made on the spot
They fought all that night neath the pale yellow moon
The din, it was heard from afar
And huge multitudes came, so great was the fame
Of Abdul and Ivan Skavar
As Abdul's long knife was extracting the life
In fact he was shouting, "Huzzah!"
He felt himself struck by that wily Calmuck
Count Ivan Skavinsky Skavar
The Sultan drove by in his red-breasted fly
Expecting the victor to cheer
But he only drew nigh to hear the last sigh
Of Abdul Abulbul Amir
Czar Petrovich, too, in his spectacles blue
Sauntered up in his gold-plated car
And arrived just in time to exchange a last line
With Ivan Skavinsky Skavar
There's a tomb rises up where the Blue Danube rolls
And engraved there in characters clear
Is, "Stranger, when passing, oh pray for the soul
Of Abdul Abulbul Amir"
A splash in the Black Sea one dark moonless night
Caused ripples to spread wide and far
It was made by a sack fitting close to the back
Of Ivan Skavinsky Skavar
A Muscovite maiden her lone vigil keeps
Neath the light of the cold northern star
And the name that she murmurs in vain as she weeps
Is Ivan Skavinsky Skavar

We Can Be Together
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
We can be together
Ah you and me
We should be together
We are all outlaws in the eyes of America
In order to survive we steal cheat lie forge Fred?
Hide and deal
We are obscene lawless hideous dangerous dirty violent and young
But we should be together
Come on all you people standing around
Our life's too fine to let it die and
We can be together

Everything they say we are we are

A new continent of earth and fire
Come on now getting higher and higher

We Call On Him
We Call On Him
Composer(s): Fred Karger; Ben Weisman; Sid Wayne
Performer(s): Elvis Presley; Allen Karl
We call on Him
Whenever storm clouds gather
We call on Him to light our darkest day
Why must it be that only when we're lonely
And hopes are dim, we call on Him
Why don't we call on Him before we lose our way
To count our blessings and thank Him while we may
We call on Him when no-one else will answer
We ask of Him a reason to go on
When our cup of joy becomes a cup of sorrow
Filled to the brim, we call on Him
Why don't we call on Him before we lose our way
To count our blessings and thank Him while we may

We Built This City
We Built This City
Composer(s): Dennis Lambert; Martin Page;
Bernie Taupin; Peter Wolf
Performer(s): Jefferson Starship
Chorus
We built this city we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city we built this city on rock an' roll
Say you don't know me or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night
Marconi plays the mamba listen to the radio
Don't you remember
We built this city we built this city on rock an' roll
Repeat Chorus
Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible write us off the page
Repeat Chorus
It's just another Sunday in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold oh and we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars
Don't tell us you need us 'cos we're just simple fools
Looking for America crawling through your schools
(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge
Out on a gorgeous sunny Saturday I've seen that bumper-to-bumper traffic)
Don't you remember (remember)
(Here's your favorite radio station in your favorite radio city
The city by the bay the city that rocks the city that never sleeps)
Repeat Chorus twice
(We built we built this city) built this city (we built we built this city)
Repeat

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Performer(s): Sesame Street
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
It's the most remarkable word I've ever seen
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
I wish I knew exactly what I mean
It starts out like an A-word
As anyone can see
But somewhere in the middle
It gets awfully QR to me
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
If I ever find out just what this word can mean
I'll be the smartest bird the world has ever seen
It might be kind of an elephant
Or a funny kind of kazoo
Or a strange exotic turtle
You never see in a zoo
Or maybe a kind of a doggie
A particular shade of blue
Or maybe a pretty flower
Naah, not with a name like that...uh, uh!

We Both Walk
We Both Walk
Composer(s): Tom Shapiro; Chris Waters
Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan
Here you are on the porch again
With your hat in your hand and a guilty grin
Well baby I ain't gonna fall for that just because I always have
And I'm not the only one who won't be taken in
Don't you try to come through my door
I can't watch you leave anymore
When you go we both walk
When you go we both walk
You walk away and I walk alone
Whenever you get that itch to go
You think I just sit and wait at home
But I've walked miles behind these walls without getting anywhere at all
And I think I've had enough of going down that road
Don't you try to come through my door
I can't watch you leave anymore
When you go we both walk
When you go we both walk
You walk away and I walk alone
Don't you try to come through my door
I can't watch you leave anymore
When you go we both walk
When you go we both walk
You walk away and I walk alone
You walk away and I walk alone

A B C Boogie
A B C Boogie
Composer(s): Al Russell - Max Spickel
Performer(s): Bill Haley & His Comets
Down around the corner in a little school
Children learn their lessons and the golden rule
'Cause they got a teacher up from Basin Street
And she does her teaching with a boogie beat
Teaching the ABC with rhythm and E
Every single morning, it's the same old thing
All the kids are waiting for the bell to ring
When they hear it ringing, they all jump in line
Walking to the classroom, feeling mighty fine
They learn their ABC with rhythm and E
Well, a-reading, writing, arithmetic
Taught to the tune of a liquorice stick
No education is ever complete
Without a boogie-woogie-woogie beat, well all reet
When the day is over and it's time to go
The children get their books and stand right at the door
Teacher is so happy, because she's done her bit
To educate the kids and make 'em really fit
To say their ABC with rhythm and E
Well, a-reading, writing, arithmetic
Taught to the tune of a liquorice stick
No education is ever complete
Without a boogie-woogie-woogie beat, well all reet
When the day is over and it's time to go
The children get their books and stand right at the door
Teacher is so happy, because she's done her bit
To educate the kids and make 'em really fit
To say their ABC with rhythm and E

We Belong To The Night
We Belong To The Night
Composer(s): Ellen Foley
Performer(s): Ellen Foley
The burning sun hangs over the city
You and me baby, we don't feel nothing at all
From nine to five we're lost
This life ain't so pretty
But when the sun goes down
We know that we can stay and talk
I just can't wait
For the night to come
Cause when the shadows cover the light
We're the only ones
Cause baby, we
We belong to the night
Yes, baby, we
We belong to the night
By day we just survive
But after dark, we come alive
Cause baby, we
We belong to the night
Dancing' on the street
In the heat of the neon
The quiet in the cool night air
Makes it easy to breathe
The music that we hear in our heats
Gives us something to dream of
Cause when that lonely soul that calls
It's those dreams that we'll need
To keep us strong
To take us far
Far away from the pain of the days
Cause that's a cruel mental start
But baby, we
We belong to the night
Yes baby, we
We belong to the night
By day we just survive
But after dark, we come alive
Cause baby, we
We belong to the night
Ahh ahh-ahh-ahh
We belong to the night
Yes, yes baby, we
We belong to the night
By day we just survive
But after dark, we come alive
Cause baby, we
We belong to the night
We belong to the night
We belong to the night

Waarom al die nijdige stoerdoenerij
Wie jaagt ze op de kast

Zij zijn de grootste, keer op keer
Maar geen ministerpostje en zoiets dat doet zeer

Veel miljoenen voor de weerstandskas
Die brengen heel wat euro's op
En die komen af en toe van pas
Helemaal legaal (ja, dat is legaal)
Al dat geld is wit (zilverachtig wit)

Weg met 't patronaat en 't groot kapitaal

We Are The World
Composer(s): Michael Jackson; Lionel Richie
Performer(s): Michael Jackson
There comes a time when we hear a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
and its time to lend a hand to life
There greatest gift of all
We cant go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of Gods great big family
And the truth, you know,
Love is all we need
Chorus:
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So lets start giving
Theres a choice we're making
We're saving out own lives
its true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stones to brend
So we all must lend a helping hand
Chorus:
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So lets start giving
Theres a choice we're making
We're saving out own lives
its true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe theres no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
Chorus:
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So lets start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving out own lives
its true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
