Wann Kommt Das Glück Auch Zu Mir


Wann Kommt Das Glück Auch Zu Mir
Composer(s): Max Colpet - Lotar Olias
Performer(s): Freddy Quinn



So ist nun einmal das Leben
Dem einen dem geht es zu gut
Dem an´dren geht alles daneben
Manchmal verliert man den Mut

Doch was man heut nicht gefunden
Morgen vielleicht ist es hier
Schlaflos lieg ich und denke
Wann kommt das Glück auch zu mir?

Oft gehe ich durch die Strassen
Stundenlang ohne ein Ziel
Könnte die ganze Welt hassen
Weil ich verlassen mich fühl

Klein und verraucht ist die Kneipe
Wo ich ne Runde spendier
Nur um dann jeden zu fragen
Wann kommt das Glück auch zu mir?

Plötzlich ich kann es kaum fassen
Tritt jemand leis auf mich zu
Sagt "Man muss lieben nicht hassen"
Küsst mich und sagt zu mir "Du"

Führt mich hinaus in den Garten
Während ich tanze mit Ihr
Weiss ich ich muss nicht mehr warten
Jetzt kommt das Glück auch zu mir

Composer(s): Artie Shaw
Performer(s): Billie Holiday
and multiple other artists



Any old time you want me I am yours
For just the asking darling
Any old time you need me I'll be there
With love that's lasting darling
All through the years we'll stand together
Sharing the tears and stormy weather
And the sunshine
Will be yours and mine
Any old time your blue you'll have our love
To chase away the blues
And any old thing you do
I'll see you through
So just remember that I am waiting dear
If ever you want me I'll be here
Any old time and any place
Where you may be

Demolition Man


Demolition Man Composer(s): Vivian Campbell - Phil Collen - Joe Elliott Performer(s): Def Leppard



Let me loose, I just got back
I was pushed and I got dragged
I tasted mud, I tasted wine
I've kissed the life I've left behind
So say I choose to stick around
I've got news for this here town
I kick the ball, I catch the bus
And raise the roof for all of us

Destination anywhere
So far gone, I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire

Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be
Here I am, your demolition man

Steal your car and leave a wreck
Kiss your bride, I cash your check
And Tyson plus I'm ripped and torn
Been on the edge since I was born
I kick the jukebox, change the tune
I break the bank and jump the moon
I sink the fleet to catch a buzz
And raise a glass for all of us

Destination anywhere
So far gone, I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire

Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be
Here I am, your demolition man

I'm a beast in space, I'm an acid taste
I'm a primitive gong stuffed in your face
It's enough to bring you to your knees

Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything, everyone and all the things I ought to be
Here I am, your demolition man
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to be
Here I am, your demolition man

Überall Auf Der Welt


Überall Auf Der Welt
Performer(s): Freddy Breck



Überall auf der Welt scheint die Sonne
Und das Leben erwacht von ihren Strahlen
Überall suchen Menschen die Liebe
Und sie glauben und hoffen für sich und für die Welt

Jede Nacht gehen Träume verloren
Jeden Tag werden Wünsche neu geboren
Überall auf der Welt blüh'n die Rosen
Und die Wunder der Liebe gescheh'n Tag für Tag

Und auch dir und auch mir sind diese Wunder gemacht
Sie gescheh'n wenn wir zwei uns begegnen
Darum geh ich den Weg führt er durch Licht oder nicht
Darum geh ich den Weg bis zu dir

Scheint die Zeit dir bis dahin noch weit
Geh nicht traurig und leer durch das Leben

Überall auf der Welt scheint die Sonne
Alle Schatten vergeh'n wenn wir uns wiederseh'n
Glaube mir für uns zwei bleibt die Welt so schön
Glaube mir für uns zwei bleibt die Welt so schön
So schön so schön

Every morning I’m broken
Every day I die
Every night I weaken
And every night I cry
Standing in the rain
In the street outside
Running down my face
Tears in my eyes

Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon
Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon

Don’t know why I wake up
Don’t know why I try
Was that me the cool one
Or some other guy
standing in the shadows
Of the sky above
No one knows I’m crying
Beaten by my love

Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon
Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon

Cada manaña
Estoy quebrado
Y por las noches
Me despierto
Lacrimas en mi cara
Abajo de la lluvia
Lonely with my pride
Holding in my pain

Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon
Demasiado Corazon (Demasiado Corazon)
Demasiado Corazon

Any Old Iron


Any Old Iron
Composer(s): Charlie Collins - Terry Shepherd
Performer(s): Peter Sellers
and multiple other artists



Just a week or two ago my dear old Uncle Bill
He went and kicked the bucket and he left me in his will
So I went around the road to see my Auntie Jane
She said, "your Uncle Bill has left you a watch and chain"
So I put it on right across my derby kell
The sun was shining on it and it made me look a swell
I went out, strolling round about
A crowd of kiddies followed me and they began to shout

"Any old iron? Any old iron?
Any, any, any old iron?
You look neat. Talk about a treat!
You look so dapper from your napper to your feet
Dressed in style, brand-new tile
And your father's old green tie on
But I wouldn't give you tuppence for your old watch and chain
Old iron, old iron"

I won't forget the day I went to London on the spree
I saw the mayor of London there
That's who I went to see
He came along in a carriage and a pair
I shouted, "come on, boys! All throw your hats up in the air"
Just then the mayor, he began to smile
Pointed to my face and said, "Lor Lummy, what a dial!"
Started Lord-a-mayoring, and then to my dismay
He pointed to my watch and chain and shouted to me
"Hey Any old iron? ..."

I shan't forget the day I married Miss Elisa Brown
The way the people laughed at me, it made me feel a clown
I arrived in a carriage called a hack
When I suddenly discovered I'd my trousers front to back
So I walked down the aisle, dressed in style
The vicar took a look at me and then began to smile
The organ started playing
The bells began to ring
The people started laughing and the choir began to sing
"Any old iron? ..."

Demain L'on Se Marie


Demain L'on Se Marie
Composer(s): Jacques Brel
Performer(s): Jacques Brel



Puisque demain l'on se marie
Apprenons la même chanson
Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie
Dis-moi ce que nous chanterons

Nous forcerons l'amour
A bercer notre vie
D'une chanson jolie
Qu'à deux nous chanterons
Nous forcerons l'amour
Si tu le veux, ma mie
A n'être de nos vies
Que l'humble forgeron

Puisque demain l'on se marie
Apprenons la même chanson
Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie
Dis-moi ce que nous y verrons

Nous forcerons nos yeux
A ne jamais rien voir
Que la chose jolie
Qui vit en chaque chose
Nous forcerons nos yeux
A n'être qu'un espoir
A deux nous offrirons
Comme on offre une rose

Puisque demain l'on se marie
Apprenons la même chanson
Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie
Dis-moi encore où nous irons

Nous forcerons les portes
Des pays d'orient
A s'ouvrir devant nous
Devant notre sourire
Nous forcerons, ma mie
Le sourire des gens
A n'être plus jamais
Une joie qui soupire

Puisque demain s'ouvre la vie
Ouvrons la porte à ces chansons
Puisque demain l'on se marie
Apprenons la même chanson

Du Sollst Nicht Weinen


Du Sollst Nicht Weinen
Performer(s): Heintje



Du sollst nicht weinen
Wenn ich einmal von dir gehen muß
Oh, denk nicht dran, noch ist der Tag so weit
Auch morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen
Für dich und mich, genau so schön wie heut

Du sollst nicht weinen
Weil die Jahre viel zu schnell vergehen
Und weil dein Junge einmal groß sein wird
Denk an die Jahre, die noch vor uns liegen
Vergiß den Tag, der mich einst von dir führt

La-la-la-laa la-la-la-la-la-la-la-laa-la la-la-la-laa la-la-la-la-la-laa

Du sollst nicht weinen
Wenn ich einmal von dir gehen muß
Oh, denk nicht dran, ich bin ja noch bei Dir
Auch morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen
Und Rosen blühen noch lang vor deiner Tür
Und Rosen blühen noch lang vor deiner Tür

Demain Je Recommence


Demain Je Recommence
Composer(s): Guy Béart
Performer(s): Guy Béart



Petit à petit tout s'effiloche
Tout finit
Je ne reçois plus que des taloches
De la vie
J'ai le cœur qui fait la gueule
Mais je pédale encor tout seul
Je me retrouve au fond de l'eau
A vélo

J'ai sonné portes et portes
Téléphones
Pour moi les saisons sont mortes
Plus personne
Quand je fais la queue je suis tranquille
Je choisis la mauvaise file
Comme ça j'ai à faire j'attends
J'ai tout le temps

Mais demain je recommence
Mais demain
Je vais retrouver ma chance
C'est certain
J'ai gardé comme une flamme
Qui éclaire un peu mon âme
J'ai craqué une allumette
Dans ma tête

Adieu ma chance
Adieu destin
Je recommence
Et demain reviendra le matin

Je ne suis plus depuis une paye
Dans le coup
Toutes ces pubs quand je me réveille
Ça me rend fou
Je ne sais plus ce qui se trafique
En politique en musique
Les nouvelles en mal en bien
Ça me dit rien

Je n'ai plus de pièces de rechange
Pour rouler
Maintenant tout le temps ça change
C'est le progrès
Je l'ai cassée ma courroie
Mon klaxon reste sans voix
Je n'ai même plus ma voie de garage
Au chômage

Mais demain je recommence
Mais demain
Je repars en ambulance
A Cochin
Ils vont me guérir bien vite
Après quoi je prendrais la lutte
A pied à cheval à bécane
A Sainte Anne

Adieu ma chance
Adieu destin
Je recommence
Et demain reviendra le matin

Je ne vous entends plus mes proches
Mes copains
Vous avez vos femmes vos mioches
Je le sais bien
Je ne vous entends plus les gars
Dans ma tête y a du dégât
Vous ne me reconnaissez plus
C'est bien vu

Où es-tu ma douce ma belle
Reviens-moi
Toi qui me donnais des ailes
Autrefois
Mon cœur est cuit désormais
Après toi je peux plus aimer
Je vais tirer un coup en l'air
C'est moins cher

Mais demain je recommence
Mais demain
Je retrouverai la romance
Les câlins
Il fera chaud en plein décembre
Une fille dans ma chambre
Un lit à deux jamais froid
Bien étroit

Bonjour ma chance
Bonjour destin
Je recommence
Et demain reviendra le matin

Mais demain je recommence
Mais demain
Je vais retrouver ma chance
C'est certain
J'ai gardé comme une flamme
Qui éclaire un peu mon âme
J'ai craqué une allumette
Dans ma tête
Aimer encore, souffrir encore
Toujours...
Demain il fera jour
Demain...

Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen
First release by: Steely Dan - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists



I never seen you looking so bad my funky one
You tell me that your superfine mind has come undone

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won’t be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

Have you ever seen a squonk’s tears? well, look at mine
The people on the street have all seen better times

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won’t be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

I can tell you all I know, the where to go, the what to do
You can try to run but you can’t hide from what’s inside of you

Any major dude with half a heart surely will tell you my friend
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again
When the demon is at your door
In the morning it won’t be there no more
Any major dude will tell you

Demain il fera jour
C'est quand tout est perdu
Que tout commence
Demain il fera jour
Après l'amour
Un autre amour commence
Un petit gars viendra en sifflotant

Les cloches sonneront dans votre ciel
Demain...
Tu verras la lune de miel briller
Demain...
Car demain
Tu vas sourire encore
Aimer encore, souffrir encore
Toujours...
Demain il fera jour

Dans ton cœur brisé pour toujours
Il reste encore de l'amour
Tu crois ta douleur si profonde
Que ta vie va s'arrêter là...
La plus belle fille du monde
Peut toujours donner plus qu'elle a...

Demain il fera jour
C'est quand tout est perdu
Que tout commence
Demain il fera jour
Après l'amour
Un autre amour commence

From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again on the
Bright side of the road

Little darlin', come with me
Won't you help me share my load
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road

Into this life we're born
Baby sometimes we don't know why
And time seems to go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye

Let's enjoy it while we can
Won't you help me sing my song
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road

From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again on the bright side of the road

Any Love


Any Love
Composer(s): Marcus Miller - Luther Vandross
Performer(s): Luther Vandross



I speak to myself sometimes, and I say, "Oh my
In a lot of ways, you're a lucky guy
Now all you need is a chance to try
Any love"

In my heart there's a need to shout
Dyin', screamin', cryin' let me out
Are all those feelings that want to touch
Any love?

What a world for the lonely guy
Sometimes I feel I'm gonna lose my mind
Can anybody tell me just where to find
Any love, any love?

Everyone needs a love no doubt
Any love, Any love
Everybody feels alone without
Any love, any love

I know there's a love waiting
To enter my life, enter my life

Every day as I live
I try to think positive
I pray for someone good to come
Any love

Love is sweet and so divine
And I can't wait for my love life to shine
Can anybody tell me where I can find
Any love, any love?

Everyone needs a love no doubt
Any love, Any love
Everybody feels alone without
Any love, any love

I know there's someone waiting for me
To enter my life, Come into my life

Suddenly I'm up in clear blue skies
Lonely tears start to fill my eyes
I can weep, but I refuse to cry
I've got to keep holding on

To think love is strong
To keep holding on

Everyone needs a love no doubt
Any love, Any love
Everybody feels alone without
Any love, any love

And I know I know I know I know she'll come into my life
Come into my life

Everyone needs a love no doubt
Any love, Any love
Everybody feels alone without
Any love, any love

Delta Lady


Delta Lady Composer(s): Leon Russell First release by: Joe Cocker - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists



Woman of the country now that I found you
Longing for your soft and fertile delta
And I whisper sighs to satisfy your longing
For the warm and tender shelter of your body
Oh, Delta Lady

Your mine, yes your mine, Delta Lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta Lady

Please don´t ask how many times I found you
Standing wet and naked in the garden
And I think of the days
And the different ways I held you
We were closely touching, yes our heart was beating

Your mine, yes your mine, Delta Lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta Lady

Oh, when I'm home again in England
I think of you my love
'Cause, I love you, love

There are concrete mountains in the city
And pretty city women live inside them
Oh, but yet it seems the city scene is lacking
I'm so glad your waiting for me the country

Your mine, yes your mine, Delta Lady
Your mine, be all mine
Delta Lady

Any Kind Of Pain


Any Kind Of Pain
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa



You are the girl
Somebody invented
In a grim little office
On Madison ave.

They were specific
They made you terrific
Red lips
Blue eyes
Blonde hair
Un-wise
You're all-American
And, darling, they said so

You'd take any kind of pain from me
Wouldn't you, baby?
You'd take any kind of pain from me
Wouldn't you, baby?
Since you haven't got a brain
Let me just explain
Any kind of pain
Is never a maybe

Her head's full of bubbles
Her nose is petite!
She looks like she never
Gets nothin' to eat!

She dines with actors
'n wall street characters
Dull talk
Nice clothes
See her?
She blows
She's so important
'cause he gets to do talk shows

And she'd take any kind of pain from me
Wouldn't you, bobby?
She'd take any kind of pain from me
Wouldn't you, bobby?
Since you haven't got a name
Let me just explain
Any kind of pain
Is probably her hobby

She has moves up now
She's come a long way
They give her bunches
Of words she can say!

When she's in a bold mood
'confinement loaf' sounds good
That's right
She's wrong!
Let's end
Her song

(it seems she's everywhere
We just can't escape her
Is this a miracle of pure evolution?
And all the yuppie boys, they dream they will rape her
She brings the 80's
To a thrilling conclusion!)

Yes, she's every bit as tame as me
Isn't she tender?
Yes, she's every bit as lame as me
Let us remember
She gets only half the blame
Only half the blame
Only half the blame
Unless we extend her

Della And The Dealer


Della And The Dealer Composer(s): Hoyt Axton Performer(s): Hoyt Axton; King's Singers; Krüger Brothers



It was Della and the Dealer and a dog named Jake And a cat named Kalamazoo Left the city in a pick up truck Gonna make some dreams come true Yea,they rolled out west where the wild sun sets And the coyote bays at the moon Della and the Dealer and a dog named Jake and a cat named Kalamazoo If that cat could talk what tales he'd tell About Della and the Dealer and the dog as well But the cat was cool, and he never said a mumblin word Down Tucson way there's a small cafe Where they play a little cowboy tune And the guitar picker was a friend of mine By the name of Randy Boone Yea, Randy played her a sweet love song And Della got a fire in her eye The Dealer had a knife and the dog had a gun and the cat had a shot of Rye If that cat could talk what tales he'd tell About Della and the Dealer and the dog as well But the cat was cool, and he never said a mumblin word Yea, the dealer was a killer He was evil and mean And he was jealous of the fire in her eyes He snorted his coke through a century note And swore that Boone would die The stage was set when the lights went out There was death in Tucson town Two shadows ran for the bar back door And one stayed on the ground If that cat could talk what tales he'd tell About Della and the Dealer and the dog as well But the cat was cool, and he never said a mumblin word Two shadows ran from the bar that night And dog and cat ran too And the tires got hot on the pick up truck As down the road they flew It was Della and her lover and a dog named Jake And a cat named Kalamazoo Left Tucson in a pick-up truck Gonna make some dreams come true
