No Hacen Falta Alas


No Hacen Falta Alas
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



No hacen falta alas
para hacer un sueño
basta con las manos
basta con el pecho
basta con las piernas
y con el empeño

No hacen falta alas
para ser más bellos
basta el buen sentido
del amor inmenso
no hacen falta alas
para alzar el vuelo

Si...
Recojo fondos para pobres de amistad y de sonrisa
recojo cuanto haya de bien en lo que esconde tu camisa
acepto cuanto pueda ser útil al coro que compongo
siempre que quieras compartir un sueño ancho, largo y hondo
Oh...

Recojo el hielo a la deriva de los poros congelados
luego con buena voluntad y mucha miel haré un helado
no le daré, no le daré al mentiroso y al cobarde
repartiré, repartiré sólo al que ama y al que arde
Oh...

No hacen falta alas
para hacer un sueño
basta con las manos
basta con el pecho
basta con las piernas
y con el empeño

No hacen falta alas
para ser más bellos
basta el buen sentido
del amor inmenso
no hacen falta alas
para alzar el vuelo

Recojo fondos para pobres de amistad y de sonrisa
recojo cuanto haya de bien en lo que esconde tu camisa
acepto cuanto pueda ser útil al coro que compongo
siempre que quieras compartir un sueño ancho, largo y hondo
Oh...

Recojo el hielo a la deriva de los poros congelados
luego con buena voluntad y mucha miel haré un helado
no le daré, no le daré al mentiroso y al cobarde
repartiré, repartiré sólo al que ama y al que arde
Oh...

¡Vengan los buenos a comer de este helado gigante!

Goodbye Dear, I'll Be Back In A Year


Goodbye Dear, I'll Be Back In A Year
Composer(s): Mack Kay
Performer(s): Horace Heidt
and multiple other artists



(male):
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
'cause I'm in the army now
They took my number right out of a hat
And there's nothing a guy can do about that

(female):
But when you get back you'll be all tan and brown
Say couldn't we buy that cottage right up out of town

(male):
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I love you

(female):
Don't fear dear I'll be here in a year
'Cause I'm true to the army now

(male):
Ah, what a soldier, you wait and see
Why, I'll be a big gun in the artillery

(female):
Now honey be sure and keep cozy and warm
Gee, you look cute in the new uniform

(male):
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I love you

(male):
Goodbye dear, well I'm here for a year
I'm in the army now
But don't you worry, the general and I
are the greatest of pals

(female):
Now [?], don't you lie

(male):
Now he fixed it up so I could have breakfast in bed

(female):
Well, why are you peeling potatoes instead?

(male):
Oh, he's just kidding me
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I

(female:
Don't forget that I

(duet):
Don't forget that I love you

No Hace Falta Que Lo Digas


No Hace Falta Que Lo Digas
Composer(s): Alejandro Lerner
Performer(s): Alejandro Lerner;
Dulce; Mijares



No hace falta que me mires
No hace falta que lo digas
No hace falta que me expliques
cuando lloras o te ríes
No hace falta decir
que me quiero morir a tu lado
Te amo…

No hace falta que te quedes
No hace falta que te insista
No hace falta que te llore
Si nos veremos arriba

No hace falta decir
que me quiero morir a tu lado
Te amo…

No hace falta que soñemos
que es mentira que no existe la muerte
cuando hay amor

Esta misma historia continúa
sólo cambia el escenario
en la escena del amor…

No hace falta que te mienta
No hace falta que lo pidas
No hace falta que me extrañes
si te encontraré algún día

No hace falta decir
que me quiero morir a tu lado
Te amo…

No hace falta que soñemos
que es mentira
que no existe la muerte
cuando hay amor

Esta misma historia continúa
sólo cambia el escenario
en la escena del amor…

No hace falta que te insista
No hace falta que te llore
Si nos veremos arriba

No hace falta decir
que me quiero morir a tu lado
Te amo…

It Doesn't Matter


It Doesn't Matter
Composer(s): Chris Hillman; Stephen Stills
First release by: Stephen Stills - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



She was just lookin'
Wonderin' if you might notice her smile
She was just watchin'
Hopin' you might want to stay for a while
Let her be by your side
You don't have to say why
You don't have to say why
It doesn't matter
She was just lookin' at you

Standing alone while she tells you goodbye
She still wishes you'd stay
Wanting to tell you the way that she feels
She can't think what to say
Except don't walk away
You might need her some day
You might need her some day

It doesn't matter
She was just lookin' at you

She was just watchin'
As you walked away without turnin' around
She was jut cryin'
Her head in her hands and her eyes on the ground
Without making a sound
Oh but don't turn around
Leave her behind
She'll be around
If you change your mind baby

It doesn't matter
She was just lookin' at you

No Habrá Más Serenatas


No Habrá Más Serenatas
Composer(s): Alfonso Valencia; Marino Valencia
Performer(s): Javier Solis



Mis amigos cancioneros
ya no habrá más serenatas
que le demos a esa ingrata
Porque anoche me ha pagado
el amor que yo le daba
con una infame traición

A las doce sale el tren
que me ha de llevar muy lejos
y no volveré jamás
Pero si algún día la encuentran
le dicen que me he marchado
ciego de tanto llorar

Si el destino me ha escogido
para descargar en mi alma
el dolor y la crueldad
No protesto sólo pido
que me dé pronto el olvido
con la muerte y nada más

Mis amigos cancioneros
cántenme la que me gusta
que me quiero emborrachar
En la vida escrito está
que los que amaron sufrieron
y los que aman sufrirán

Ya no habrá más serenatas

Get Your Biscuits In The Oven And Your Buns In The Bed


Get Your Biscuits In The Oven And Your Buns In The Bed
Composer(s): Kinky Friedman
Performer(s): Kinky Friedman



You uppity women I dont understand
Why you gotta go and try to act like a man
But before you make your weekly visit to the shrink
You'd better occupy the kitchen, liberate the sink

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said
Women's liberation is a-going to your head
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

Early every morning you're out on the street
Passing out pamphlets to everyone you meet
You gave up your maiden form for Lent
And now the front of your dress has an air scoop vent

Every single brakeman that's ever come along
Had a little woman always tellin' him that he's wrong
Eve said to Adam, "Here's an apple, you horse"
And Delilah defoliated Samson's moss

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said
Women's liberation is a-going to your head
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

Mean-hearted harpies are breaking all the laws
Tearing up their girdles and a-burning up their bras
Now the air is dirty and the sex is clean
And your coffee makes my hair turn green

So damn emancipated in your mind and your body
Gonna have to cancel all your lessons in karate
If you can't love a male chauvinist
You'd better cross me off your shopping list

Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed
That's what I to my baby said
Women's liberation is a-going to your head
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed

No Fun


No Fun
Composer(s): David Alexander; Ron Asheton; Iggy Pop
Performer(s): The Sex Pistols;
and various other artists



No fun, my babe no fun
No fun, my babe no fun
No fun to hang around
Feeling that same old way
No fun to hang around
Freaked out for another day

No fun, my babe no fun
No fun, my babe no fun
No fun to be alone
Walking by my self
No fun to be alone
In love with nobody else

Well, maybe go out, maybe stay home
Maybe call Mom on the telephone
Well, come on, well, come on
Well, come on, well, come on
Well, come on, well, come on
Well, come on, well, come on
No fun to be alone
No fun to be alone
Hang on, don´t let me go
No fun to be alone

It Couldn't Have Been Any Better


It Couldn't Have Been Any Better
Composer(s): Ray Griff
Performer(s): Johnny Duncan; Janie Fricke



She just sat there and she brushed her hair
Lord, it sure was dark and long
I got up and drank a half-warm beer
Found my boots and put them on

She was not sure where she stood with me
As she straightened out her clothes
So I kissed her warm red lips again
And I whispered soft and low

It couldn't have been any better
It couldn't have been any sweeter
We couldn't have climbed any higher
If we'd been to the top of the World

We couldn't have got any closer
We couldn't have gone any farther
It couldn't have been any better
And you're my best friend's girl

With a tender look she said Goodnight
And I turned and walked away
Just before I closed that door and left
I could hear her softly say

It couldn't have been any better
It couldn't have been any sweeter
We couldn't have climbed any higher
If we'd been to the top of the World

We couldn't have got any closer
We couldn't have gone any farther
It couldn't have been any better
And you're my best friend's girl

No Fair At All


No Fair At All
Composer(s): Jim Yester
Performer(s): The Association; The Racket Squad



I've never seen this side of you before
Till now
Never knew that you could feel this way
Till now

After all the time
we spent together
Just doesn't seem fair at all
No fair at all

Never seen the moonlight in your hair
Till now
Never heard the sweet things you could say
Till now

After all the time
we spent together
Just doesn't seem fair at all
No fair at all

After all the time
we spent together
Just doesn't seem fair at all
No fair at all

No fair at all
(Repeat and fade)

Gay Love


Gay Love
From the film "The Delightful Rogue" (1929)
Composer(s): Oscar Levant; Sidney Clare
Performer(s): Bing Crosby; Matty Malneck



The silv'ry moon finds me alone tonight
With only thoughts of you
The little stars are twinkling, oh, so bright
No wonder I am blue

Like a ray of sun with flaring light
You have brought the love that's burning
The happy spell of you now holds me tight
For you I keep on yearning

Gay love, with your heart I will play, love
Until you come my way, love
I'll be waiting for you

Your love, is the kind I adore, love
Something worth living for, love
Every word, dear, is true

Your magic arms are always haunting
Wanting you near to me
Your fiery eyes are so entrancing
Glancing, romancing

Gay love, won't you promise and say, love
You will be mine someday, love
And that you love me true

Your magic arms are always haunting
Wanting you near to me
Your fiery eyes are so entrancing
Glancing, romancing

Gay love, won't you promise and say, love
You will be mine someday, love
And that you love me true

No Expense Spared


No Expense Spared
Composer(s): Rick Wakeman; Adam Wakeman
Performer(s): Wakeman With Wakeman



You say you won´t believe me
When I tell you that I´m scared
And the way you walk you walk towards me
Only shows that you once cared
Now there´s no, no expense spared
No expense spared (2x)
No expense, no, no

No, no, no
Everybody knows
Everybody´s singing in the one man show of life
My life, some life
Some life (5x)
Life (3x)

Cheap, so cheap, a bargain
Buy it at the shop, at the store with a cheque or card
Tell me now, what should I be doing here?
No expense is spared
So any little deal will do, I give it no regard
Hanging around, that´s all I seem to do when you´re around
Buy, buy, buy our product
Well below the recommended price, it´s not so hard
Absolutely stunning
That´ll do nicely, slap it on the card today
Oh I can´t see, what you want from me
No expense is spared
I haven´t any money so American Express will pay
No commitment, no financial guarantee

I should own the bank, then
Take it all away to play the town
The price is down
And there´s no expense spared for me

It Could Happen To You


It Could Happen To You
Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen
First performance by: Fred MacMurray & Dorothy Lamour - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists



Hide your heart from sight
Lock your dreams at night
It could happen to you
Don't count stars
Or you might stumble
Someone drops a sigh
And down you tumble
Keep an eye on spring
Run when church bells ring
It could happen to you
All I did was wonder
How your arms would be
And it happened to me

No Existe Fuerza En El Mundo


No Existe Fuerza En El Mundo
Composer(s): Gustavo Santaolalla
Performer(s): León Gieco



No existe fuerza en el mundo
que pueda parar la voz
No hay vitamina que alcance
cuando del alma es la tos

Cuando sabemos lo que tenemos
y transparente todo lo vemos

No existe bota o zapato
que pueda pisarnos hoy
ni rascacielos que rasquen
cuando pica el corazón

Cuando paramos de darnos cuerda
como si nada se abren las puertas

No existe ciudad en el globo
que pueda atraparme hoy
que pueda atraparme hoy

No hay suficientes misiles
para bajarme la voz
Ni reacciones en cadena
sino juego de eslabón

Cuando los locos se están matando
entre las balas me voy silbando

No existe sable en el mundo
que pueda partirme en dos
que pueda partirme en dos

From Me To You (Al Bowlly)


From Me To You
Composer(s): Wayne King; F. Andre; Nat Conney
Performer(s): Al Bowlly



I’ve got the birds all singing
A little love song that is new
And in the evening they’ll be bringing
A song from me to you

The setting sun that’s making
A bed of gold upon the blue
Can’t say goodnight until it’s taken
A kiss from me to you

Love words I’m not able
To whisper in your ear
All this world I’ll label
Faithfully yours, my dear

At night when we’re apart, love
You’ll get a rose that’s wrapped in dew
And deep inside you’ll find my heart, love
A gift from me to you

No Estés Así


No Estés Así
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



No estés así mi amiga
mi amiga no estés así

Como si se encarnasen
en tus ojos la niebla
y el vacío del mundo
no estés así mi amiga
mi amiga no estés así

Aunque siempre nos viertan
intentando mancharnos
vasos de whisky y napalm
no estés así mi amiga
mi amiga no estés así

No dejes que te monden
como una fruta vieja
tu esperanza de nieve
No estés así mi amiga
mi amiga no estés así

It Could Be You


It Could Be You
Composer(s): Joseph Elliott; Peter Andrew Willis
First release by: Def Leppard - 1980



Who's the one to knock me over
Who's the one to take me by surprise
Who's the one who's out to get me
Who will share my fantasy tonight
It could be you
It could be me
It could be anyone
It could be you
It could be me
It could be you
It could be anyone
Do you really know the story?
Have you really come to see the band?
Can you reach out for the glory?
Can you feel the nearness of my hand?
It could be you
It could be me
It could be anyone
If you look a little harder
You can see we're really all the same
And if you look a little deeper
Can't you see it's really all a game?
It could be you
It could be me
It could be anyone
It could be you
It could be me
It could be you
It could be anyone

No Estamos A Salvo


No Estamos A Salvo
Composer(s): Sergio Sáenz
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Cuando un corazón se derrumba
dale de beber algo fuerte mañana
como un pedazo de acantilado que se cae
como un pedazo de acantilado que se cae
Quiero detenerlo y vuelvo
a equivocarme otra vez
cuando la razón es un juego
cada habitación es un círculo de fuego
la mesa servida espera en el centro
la mesa servida espera en el centro
Y las paredes en llamas
se acercan cada minuto más
no estamos a salvo en las pasiones
ellas hechan raíces en las cornisas
y un apasionado solo hace canciones
y nunca sabe muy bien
y nunca sabe muy bien
y nunca sabe muy bien
y nunca sabe muy bien, donde pisa
Cuando un corazón toma vuelo
nunca mirará si esta lejos del suelo
puede no resistir la proxima tormenta
puede no resistir la proxima tormenta
no traten de detenerlo
el solo volvera a empezar

No estamos a salvo de las ...

For The Want Of You


For The Want Of You
Composer(s): Eddie Cherkose; Jule Styne
Performer(s): George Melachrino



For the want of a dream a night was lost
For the want of a night a star was lost
For the want of a star the sky was lost

As I am lost for the want of you
For the want of a note a tune was lost
For the want of a tune a song was lost
For the want of a song a dream was lost
As I am lost for the want of you

For I can only reminisce
And watch the dreams go by
It takes two to share a kiss
Only one for a sigh

For the want of a kiss two lips were lost
For the want of two lips a heart was lost
Darling just like my heart I'm completely lost
For the want of you

Deja ya de jurar que te vas a marchar
Pués yo sé qu tu amor sabe bien que no es el adios
Ese adios no es verdad
No te vas ni te iras
Puede màs nuestro amor
Que el rencor y a mi lado seguiras
Nuestros digustos de amores tendran pronto fin
Como cortas tormentas y lluvias de abril

La la la...

Deja ya de jurar que te vas a marchar

Nuestros digustos de amores tendran pronto fin

It Costs So Little


It Costs So Little
Composer(s): Alf Ritter; J. Lester Smith; Horatio Nicholls
Performer(s): The Organ Dance Band



Wherever you may go, whatever you may do
Spread happiness on your way
The seeds of rough may blow
The skies may lose their blue
But keep on smiling day to day

It costs so little, but it means so much
When you greet a friend with a smile
A few kind words go a long, long way
They make this world worthwhile
A pat on the shoulder may keep away a tear
It brings consolation when troubles may be near
It costs so little and it means so much
A handshake and a word of cheer

It costs so little and it means so much
A handshake and a word of cheer
