Driving Me Backwards
Driving Me Backwards
Composer(s): Brian Eno
Performer(s): Brian Eno
and multiple other artists
Ohohohohohohoh oh
Doo doo doo doo doo doo dah
I'll be there
Oh driving me backwards
Kids like me gotta be crazy
Moving me forwards
Perhaps you think that I'm lazy
Meet my relations
All of them grinning like facepacks
Such sweet inspiration
Curl me up, a flag in an icecap
Now I've found a sweetheart
Treats me good, just like an armchair
I try to think about nothing
Difficult, I'm most temperamental
I gave up my good living
Typical I'm most sentimental
Ah Luana's black reptiles
Sliding round make chemical choices
And she responds as expected
To the only sound, hysterical voices
And you are driving me backwards
Kids like me gotta be crazzzzzy i-i-i-i-i-i-i
doo doo doo dodoo dodah I'll be there

La Giostra (The-Merry-Go-Round)
Composer(s): Ellstein - Manning
Performer(s): Dean Martin
(La giostra d'amore
La giostra d'amore
La giostra (?)
So, merry-go-round of love)
When I want your carress
And your eyes tell me yes
But your lips tell me no
Round in circles I go, on love's la giostra
(The merry-go-round)
With my feet off the ground
On that merry-go-round
I go nowhere, but fast
Oh, how long will I last, on love's la giostra ?
When my head's in a spin
You give out, you give in
And your kisses are sweet
Then my heart's at your feet, just as before
Being in love is like taking a ride on a giostra
La giostra (?)
So, merry-go-round of love
(La giostra d'amore
La giostra d'amore
La giostra (?)
So, merry-go-round of love)
When my head's in a spin
You give out, you give in
And your kisses are sweet
When my heart's at your feet, just as before
Being in love is like taking a ride on la giostra
La giostra (?)
So, merry-go-round of love
(La giostra d'amore
La giostra d'amore)
La giostra (?)
So, merry-go-round of love …

Driving In My Car
Driving In My Car
Composer(s): Mike Barson
Performer(s): Madness
I’ve been driving in my car, it’s not quite a Jaguar
I bought it in Primrose Hill from a bloke from Brazil
It was made in Fifty-Nine in a factory by the Tyne
It says Morris on the door, the G.P.O. owned it before
I drive in it for my job, the Governor calls me a slob
But I don’t really care, give me some gas and the open air
It’s a bit old but it’s mine, I mend it in my spare time
Just last week I changed the oil, the rocker valves and the coil
Just last week I changed the oil
Last week it went round the clock, I also had a little knock
I dented somebody’s fender, he learnt not to park on a bender, ha ha ha
I’ve been driving in my car, it don’t look much but I’ve been far
I drive up to Muswell Hill, I’ve even been to Selsey Bill
I drove along the A45, I had her up to 58
This copper stopped me the other day, you’re mistaken what could I say
The tyres were a little worn, they were o.k., I could have sworn
I like driving in my car, I’m satisfied I’ve got this far
I like driving in my car, it don’t look much but I’ve been far
I like driving in my car, even with a flat tyre
I like driving in my car, it’s not quite a Jaguar
I like driving in my car, I’m satisfied I’ve got this far

La Gente
La Gente
Composer(s): Lucio Milena
Performer(s): Javier Solís
La gente, te encuentro solitaria entre la gente
perdida entre la burla que es hiriente
la gente, la gente que murmura y que no siente
lo intenso de mi amor apasionado
que es llama de dolor y no pecado
pues nace desde el propio corazón
La gente, y tú estás junto a mí frente a la gente
luchando ante la ley ardientemente
la gente, la gente que te arrastra nuevamente
tratando de arrancarte de mi lado
no entiende que yo estoy desesperado
no quiero perderte otra vez entre la gente
La gente, y tú estás junto a mí frente a la gente
luchando ante la ley ardientemente
la gente, la gente que te arrastra nuevamente
tratando de arrancarte de mi lado
no entiende que yo estoy desesperado
no quiero perderte otra vez entre la gente

First release by: T-Bone Burnett - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
All I want is a love that's hot
Can't be sold and it can't be bought
Love don't try to be something it's not
All I need is a love that's real
Love won't rob and love won't steal
Love that moves like a drivin' wheel
Well, all I want is a drivin' wheel
Well, all I want is a drivin' wheel
All round up, is my ideal
Jump!
All I want is a love that's right
To hold on to with all my might
Early in the morning and late at night
All I need is a love that's real
Love won't rob and love won't steal
Love that moves like a drivin' wheel
Well, all I want is a drivin' wheel
All I want is a drivin' wheel
All round up, is my ideal

La Génération Perdue
La Génération Perdue
Composer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Les mains tendues, tu réclames ta liberté
À ton père qui ne peut pas et ne veux pas comprendre
Il voudrait te voir derrière son établi
Un marteau en main toute ta vie
Samedi soir la sortie est obligatoire
Et s'arrête au cinéma
Et dans les froids moments de l'incertitude
Il y a au plus profond de ta solitude
Derrière les murs de l'incompréhension
Un espoir rempli de passion
Tu prendras l'avenir comme il te viendra
Si tu veux il sera pour toi
Et dans les rues mouillées aux couleurs de l'ennui
Et ce chien qui hurle au silence de la nuit
Ton cœur trop serré à envie d'exploser
À la face d'un monde résigné
Tes yeux aveuglés par l'enfance trompée
S'ouvriront sur la vérité
Ta génération en veux à la terre entière
Le long des routes il ne trouve que la misère
Mais tes doigts sont en or et sur ta guitare
Tu joueras pour sortir du noir
Devant les lumières de la célébrité
Tu pourras faire briller le nom
Que ton père t'as donné
Que ton père t'as donné
Ouais, que ton père t'as donné

Drivin' Nails In My Coffin
Drivin' Nails In My Coffin
Composer(s): Jerry Irby
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and multiple other artists
My sweetheart has gone and I am so lonely
She said that she and I are through
So I started out drinking for past time
Driving nails in my coffin over you
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Lord, drivin’ those nails over you
Now ever since the day that we parted
Well I’ve been so lonely and so blue
And I’m always thinking of you only
And I just can’t quit drinking that old booze
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Lord, drivin’ those nails over you
Now you turned me down’ you don’t want me
There’s nothing now I can loose
I’m just driving those nails in my coffin
And worrying my darling over you
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
I’m just driving nails in my coffin
Lord, drivin’ those nails over you

La Gelosia
La Gelosia
Composer(s): Gianni Bella - Mogol Audio 2
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano
Non ho nessuno a parte te
che mi ha tradito come sai
io mi sento un'auto che non ha
non ha più il motore
e mi sento un uomo che vivrà
nel suo dolore
nel dolore
solo nel suo dolore ormai
Eppur mi sento forte, sai
sarà perché non odio mai
di certo non dovrei soffrir così
così inutilmente
solamente perché hai detto un si
stupidamente
stupidamente
con il cervello assente
Amica mia
quanto costa una bugia
un dolore che dividiamo in due
tra noi la gelosia
quando arriva non va più via
col silenzio tu mi rispondi che
col tuo pianto tu mi rispondi che
coi tuoi occhi tu mi rispondi che lo sai
La gelosia più la scacci
e più l'avrai
tu eri mia
di chi sei più no lo sai
complicità
ma che gran valore ha
sincerità
che fortuna chi ce l'ha
E' qui il serpente
è arrivato
è qui seduto in mezzo a noi
lui ti mangia il cuore come fosse
un pomodoro
così diventi pazzo tu
o come un toro
come un toro
purtroppo non ragioni più
Amica mia
quanto costa una bugia
un dolore che dividiamo In due
tra noi la gelosia
quando arriva non va più via
col silenzio tu mi rispondi che
col tuo pianto tu mi rispondi che
coi tuoi occhi tu mi rispondi che lo sai
La gelosia più la scacci e più l'avrai
tu eri mia
di chi sei più non lo sai
complicità
ma che gran valore ha
sincerità
che fortuna chi ce l'ha

Drivin'
Drivin'
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks
It seems like all the world is fighting
They're even talking of a war
Let all the Russians and the Chinese
And the Spanish do their fighting
The sun is shining
We're going drivin', drivin'
Drop all your work
Leave it behind
Forget all your problems
And get in my car
And take a drive with me
The sandwiches are packed
The tea is in the flask
We've plenty of beer
And gooseberry tarts
So take a drive with me
We'll take your mother if you want to
We'll have a picnic on the grass
Forget your nephews
And your cousins and your brothers and your sisters
They'll never miss us
'Cos we'll be drivin', drivin', drivin', drivin'
Thousands of trees
Hundreds of fields
Millions of birds
So why don't you come
And take a drive with me
We'll talk to the cows
And laugh at the sheep
We'll lie in a field
And we'll have a sleep
So take a drive with me
And all the troubled world around us
Seems an eternity away
And all the debt collectors
Rent collectors
All will be behind us
But they'll never find us
'Cos we'll be drivin', drivin', drivin', drivin'
Passed Barnet Church
Up to Potters Bar
We won't be home late
It's not very far
So take a drive with me, take a drive with me
Drivin', drivin', drivin', drivin'

La Gaviota (Silvio Rodíguez)
La Gaviota
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Corrían los días de fines de guerra
y había un soldado regresando intacto
intacto del frío mortal de la tierra
intacto de flores de horror en su cuarto
Elevó los ojos, respiró profundo
la palabra cielo se hizo en su boca
y como si no hubiera más en el mundo
por el firmamento pasó una gaviota
Gaviota, gaviota, vals del equilibrio
cadencia increíble, llamada en el hombro
Gaviota, gaviota, blancura del lirio
aire y bailarina, gaviota de asombro
¿A dónde te marchas, canción de la brisa
tan rápida, tan detenida
disparo en la sien y metralla en la risa
gaviota que pasa y se lleva la vida?
Corrían los días de fines de guerra
pasó una gaviota volando, volando
lento, como un tiempo de amor que se cierra
imperio de ala, de cielo y de cuándo
Gaviota, gaviota, vals del equilibrio
cadencia increíble, llamada en el hombro
Gaviota, gaviota, blancura del lirio
aire y bailarina, gaviota de asombro
Corrían los días de fines de guerra
pasó una gaviota volando
y el que anduvo intacto rodó por la tierra
huérfano, desnudo, herido, sangrando

Ma parole dès ce soir
Ses fringues sur le trottoir
Y a pas d'comment, d'pourquoi
Ça n'vous regarde pas
C'est du entre elle et moi
C'est not' putain not' putain d'histoire
Ma parole dès ce soir ou demain on verra
La garce

Virer une fille comme elle

Même des anges bien élevés
La garce

Si au jeux j'la perdait
J'm'en fous je n'payerai pas

Mais la perdre je ne veux pas
Même si Dieux m'la prenait
J'ferai sauter la planète
La garce
La garce
Oh c'est vrai j'ai pleuré
J'en ai les yeux ridés
Oh je sais j'ai rampé
J'en ai le ventre usé
Mais monsieur faut bien l'dire
Faut quand même bien avouer
Que c'est pas tous les jours
Qu'on a la chance d'aimer
Une garce
La garce
La garce
La garce

Oh
La garce
Mais quelle garce
Mais elle est belle la garce
Oh ! La garce
Oh
La garce
Mais quelle garce

La Gadoue
La Gadoue
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
First release by: Petula Clark
Du mois de septembre au mois d'août
foudrait des bottes de caoutchouc
pour patauger dans la gadoue
une à une les gouttes d'eau
me dégoulinent dans le dos
nous pataugeons dans la gadoue
vivons un peu sous le ciel gris-bleu
d'amour et d'eau de pluie
et puis mettons en marche les essuie-glaces
et rentrons à Paris
ça nous changera pas d'ici
nous garderons nos parapluies
nous retrouverons la gadoue
il fait un temps abominable
Heureusement tu as ton imperméable
et ça n'empêche pas la gadoue
il fallait venir jusqu'ici
pour jouer les amoureux transis
et patauger dans la gadoue
vivons un peu sous le ciel gris-bleu
d'amour et d'eau de pluie
et puis mettons en marche les essuie-glaces
et rentrons à Paris
L'année prochaine nous irons
dans un pays où il fait beau
et nous oublierons la gadoue

Who's gonna tell you when
It's too late
Who's gonna tell you things
Aren't so great

When you fall
Who's gonna hang it up
When you call
Who's gonna pay attention
To your dreams
Who's gonna plug their ears
When you scream
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight
Who's gonna hold you down
When you shake
Who's gonna come around
When you break
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight
Oh you know you can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight

La France De Mon Enfance
La France De Mon Enfance
Composer(s): Didier Barbelivien - Enrico Macias
Performer(s): Enrico Macias
La France de mon enfance
N'était pas en territoire de France
Perdue au soleil du côté d'Alger
C'est elle la France où je suis né
La France de mon enfance
Juste avant son rêve d'indépendance
Elle était fragile comme la liberté
La France celle où je suis né
Le soleil n'était pas celui de Marseille
Ma province n'était pas ta Provence
Je savais déjà que rien n'était pareil
Et pourtant mon cœur était en France
La France de mon enfance
Mon pays ma terre ma préférence
Avait une frontière Méditerranée
C'est elle la France où je suis né
La France de mon enfance
N'avait pas tous ces murs de silence
Elle vivait en paix sous les oliviers
La France, celle où je suis né
On avait l'accent d'une région lointaine
On était perdu comme en Lorraine
A l'école on apprenait la différence
Mais c'était la même histoire de France
La France de mon enfance
Par amour, par désobéissance
Son prénom était un nom étranger
C'est elle la France où je suis né
La France de mon enfance
Moi je pleure encore de son absence
Elle était française on l'a oublié
La France, celle où je suis né
