Tata Yoyo


Tata Yoyo
Composer(s): Gérard Gustin - J. Mareuil
Performer(s): Annie Cordy



Tata Yoyo qu'est-ce qu'y a sous ton grand chapeau
Tata Yoyo, dans ma tête y a des tas d'oiseaux
Tata Yoyo, on m'a dit qu'y a même un grelot
Mais, moi j'aime ça quand ça fait ding ding di gue ding
Comme une samba

J'ai mon boa
Mon vieux chapeau
Ma robe à fleurs
Et mon mégot
Mon parasol
Et mes faux cils
Et une boussole
Sur mon nombril
Les Brésiliens m'ont surnommée la folle de Rio
Mais les enfants me donne un nom plus rigolo

Tata Yoyo qu'est-ce qu'y a sous ton grand chapeau
Tata Yoyo, dans ma tête y a des tas d'oiseaux
Tata Yoyo, on m'a dit qu'y a même un grelot
Mais, moi j'aime ça quand ça fait ding ding di gue ding
Comme une samba

Depuis le temps
Que je m'trimballe
Parmi les masques
Du Carnaval
Ma silhouette
Mon charme fou
Ça les embêtes
Ils sont jaloux
Je les entends sur mon passage dire: Ah! quelle est belle
Un gosse a dit: Papa, j'la veux pour mon Noël

Tata Yoyo qu'est-ce qu'y a sous ton grand chapeau
Tata Yoyo, dans ma tête y a des tas d'oiseaux
Tata Yoyo, on m'a dit qu'y a même un grelot
Mais ça n'fait rien quand je danse ça fait ding ding di gue ding
Et j'aime bien
Oui, moi j'aime ça quand ça fait ding ding di gue ding
Comme une samba

Music, Maestro, Please!


Music, Maestro, Please!
Composer(s): Herb Magidson; Allie Wrubel
Performer(s): Frankie Laine



A table near the band
A small one
Some cigarettes, a drink
Yes, a tall one
And, waiter, I could use
A chaser for my blues

Tonight I musn't think of her
Music, maestro, please!
Tonight
Tonight I must forget
How much I need her
So, Mister Leader
Play your lilting melodies
Ragtime, jazztime, swing
Any old thing
To help me ease the pain
That solitude can bring
She used to like waltzes
So please don't play a waltz
She danced divinely
And I loved her so
But there I go
Tonight I mustn't think of her
No more memories
Swing out
Tonight I must forget
Music, maestro, please!

Going Underground


Going Underground
Composer(s): Paul Weller
Performer(s): The Jam;
and various other artists



Some people might say my life is in a rut
But I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more
But I'm so happy I can't see the point

Somethings happening here today
A show of strength with your boy's brigade
and I'm so happy and you're so kind
You want more money, of course I don't mind
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
And the public gets what the public wants
But I want nothing this society's got

I'm going underground (going underground)
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout for tomorrow

Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
Me, I've enough already on my plate
People might need some tension to relax
Me, I'm too busy dodging between the flak

What you see here is what you get
You've made your bed, you better lie in it
You choose your leaders and place your trust
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
And the public wants what the public gets
But I don't get what this society wants

I'm going underground (going underground)
Well let the brass bands play and feet start to pound
Going underground (going underground)
So let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow

We talk and talk until my head explodes
I turn on the news and my body froze
These braying sheep on my TV screen
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream
Going underground, I'm going underground
I'm going underground, I'm going underground

These braying sheep on my tv screen...
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream...

Going underground (going underground)
Well let the brass band play and feet start to pound
Going underground (going underground)
Well let the boys all sing, and the boys all shout
Going underground (going underground)
Well let the brass band play and feet go pow pow pow
Going underground (going underground)
So let the boys all sing and let the boys all shout.....
.....for tomorrow

Oui mais question tutu tintin
Une voix derrière lui fait

Taste Of India


Taste Of India
Composer(s): Glen Ballard - Joe Perry - Stephen Tyler
Performer(s): Aerosmith



God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into you
Any cat man do when it's done
Yeah, she's got that kind of love incense
That lives in her back room
And when it mixes with the funk my friend
It turns into perfume
When you are born
You're afraid of the darkness
Then you're afraid of the light
But I'm not afraid
When I dance with my shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
To think of what I'll get tonight
Just lookin' for a little taste
(A Taste Of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
Her Yin and Yang
Is just the thing
She's unpredictable my friend
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into you
Any cat man do when it's done
It's like your first taste, love, of vindaloo
That sets your heart on fire
And if you let her stuff get into you
It will be all that you desire
When you make love to
A sweet tantric priestess
You drink in the bliss of delight
But I'm not afraid
When I dance with her shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
She's gonna wake my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste
(A Taste Of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
She a friend of mine
She a concubine
The sweetest wine
I gotta make her mine
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into you
Any cat man do when it's done
Just think of what I'll get tonight
She's gonna wake my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste
(A Taste Of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
Yow, yow...

Music To Watch Girls By


Music To Watch Girls By
Composer(s): Sid Ramin; Tony Velona
Performer(s): Andy Williams
and various other artists



The boys watch the girls
while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye, they solemnly convene to make the scene
Which is the name of the game, watch a guy watch a dame on any street in town
Up and down and over and across, romance is boss

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere
Eyes watch girls walk with tender lovin' care

It's keepin' track of the fact watching them watching back
That makes the world go 'round
"What's that sound?" each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere
Eyes watch girls walk with tender lovin' care

It's keepin' track of the fact watching them watching back
That makes the world go 'round
"What's that sound?" each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by

The boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye, they solemnly convene to make the scene

La la la la la la la la la

T'as Perdu Ton Temps


T'as Perdu Ton Temps
Performer(s): Aïda Aznavour



T'as perdu ton temps
Follement, bêtement
À chercher le grand amour
T'en as fait ton deuil
Où sont tes vingt ans
Tes printemps triomphants
Ils sont enfuis pour toujours
Près de ton orgueil
Les hommes à tes pieds
Venaient jeter
Leur coeur et leur fortune
Mais tu restais glacée
Pauvre insensée
Il te fallait la lune
T'as perdu ton temps
Et pourtant conviens-en
Tu as eu plus d'occasions
Que n'importe qui
À tous tes galants
Espérant coeur battant
Si tu n'as jamais dit non
Tu n'as pas dit oui
Et le temps a passé
Ils se sont tous lassés
En amour c'est donnant donnant
T'as perdu ton temps

T'as perdu ton temps
En rêvant d'un romain
Qui n'a jamais existé
Qu'on fond de tes nuits
Et seule à présent
Tu vis en regrettant
L'ambition démesurée
Qui ruina ta vie
Mais pour connaître un jour
Ce grand amour
Qui fut ton problème
Il te fallait livrer
Abandonner
Le meilleur de toi même
T'as perdu ton temps
C'est navrant mais pourtant
Tu ne peux en vérité
Que t'en prendre à toi
Égoïstement
Calmement, froidement
Tu as cru tout diriger
À présent tu vois
Les années t'ont roulée
T'ont privée de passé
Et toi irrémédiablement
T'as perdu ton temps

T'as perdu ton temps
À chercher le grand amour
Où sont tes vingt ans?
Ils sont enfuis pour toujours
T'as perdu ton temps
À chercher le grand amour

Music Time


Music Time
Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung
Performer(s): Styx



I like music
The rhythm really gets to me
I can't control it
My feet move automatically
And I like hot licks
The kind I wish that I could play
And when I hear them
I crank the volume all the way

Turn it on
Turn it up
Turn it loud
All the way

I like strangers
Their kindness means a lot to me
They don't ask questions
Don't care about my history
And I like fast girls
I don't know what's come over me
They make me do things
I would not ordinarily

Turn it on
Turn it up
Turn it loud
All the way

Hear it, feel it, like it
Do it, do it, do it to me
Want it, need it, love it
Can't get enough of it
Try it do it
Go ahead and go for it
All the way

And I like daydreams
I've had enough reality
My job is boring
I'm overworked and underpaid
I like TV
It stirs up all my fantasies
Girls in tight jeans
Acting so outrageously

Turn it on
Turn it up
Turn it loud
All the way

Hear it, feel it, like it
Do it, do it, do it to me
Want it, need it, love it
Can't get enough of it
Try it do it
Go ahead and go for it
All the way

Turn it loose, loose
I like big things
The size of them impresses me
Just give me plenty
Forget about the quality
And I like fast food
The burgers always taste the same
The snotty waiters
Ask highball or boubiley

Performer(s): Fats Domino;

I'm going to the river
Gonna go overboard and drown
I'm going to the river
Gonna jump overboard and drown
Because the gal I love
She just has left this town

When she left me
I bowed my head and cried
When she left me
I bowed my head and cried
I never thought
I would be
I would be the one to cry

Wah wah wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah wah, wah wah wah

Well, if you see my mama tell her
Goodbye for me
If you see my mama tell her
Goodbye for me
I'm tired of living
Living in misery

Leave everything behind you
Come and join me
Won't be sorry
It's easy to survive

Jungle life

All alone like Tarzan Boy

Monkey business on a sunny afternoon

Music Must Change


Music Must Change
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): The Who



Deep in the back of my mind is an unrealized sound
Every feeling I get from the street says it soon could be found
When I hear the cold lies of the pusher, I know it exists
It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids, emphasized with their fists

But the high has to rise from the low
Like volcanoes explode through the snow
The mosquito's sting brings a dream
But the poisons derange

The music must change
For we're chewing a bone
We soared like the sparrow hawk flied
Then we dropped like a stone
Like the tide and the waves
Growing slowly in range
Crushing mountains as old as the Earth
So the music must change

Sometimes at night, I wake up and my body's like ice
The sound of the running wild stallion, the noise of the mice
And I wondered if then I could hear into all of your dreams
I realize now it was really the sound of your screams

But death always leads into life
But the street fighter swallows the knife
Am I so crazy to feel that it's here prearranged?

The music must change
It's gets higher and higher
Smouldering like leaves in the sun
Then it bursts into fire
Its rhythm grows strong
It's so new and so strange
Like bells in the clouds, then again
The music must change

But is this song so different?
Am I doing it all again?
It may have been done before
But then music's an open door

Deep in the back of my is an unrealized sound
Every feeling I get from the street says it soon could be found
When I hear the cold lies of the pusher, I know it exists
It's confirmed in the eyes of the kids, emphasized with their fists

But the high has to rise from the low
Like volcanoes explode through the snow
The mosquito's sting brings a dream
But the poison's derange

The music must change
For we're chewing a bone
We soared like the sparrow hawk flied
Then we dropped like a stone
Like the tide and the waves
Growing slowly in range
Crushing mountains as old as the Earth
So the music must change

Music Makin' Mama From Memphis


Music Makin' Mama From Memphis
Composer(s): Hank Snow
Performer(s): Hank Snow;
R.D. Henden; Charlie Waller



Listen to a story about a gal I know
She's my music makin' mama, I'm her hillbilly beau
She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans
She's my music makin' mama from Memphis, Tennessee

She'll play a little rhythm, do the boogie up right
A Tennessee polka, maybe blues in the night
Ever'body travels from near and far
To hear her when she picks it on that old guitar
My music makin' mama from Memphis, Tennessee

You can hear her in the ev'nin', when the sun sinks low
A-singin' and a-pickin on that old banjo
You wanta jive when the words roll out of her mouth
Ever'body's callin' her the Queen of the South
She's my fiddle playin' mama from Memphis, Tennessee

You gotta start dancin' when she gets in the groove
Picks a big bass fiddle or yodels the blues
Plays a downbeat, offbeat, any old beat
A breakdown, a hoedown and does it up neat
She's my bass pickin' baby from Memphis, Tennessee

You'll know when my baby is a-comin' to town
All the jive-jumpin' jitterbugs, they gather around
They keep a-yellin' to my queenie, now, honey, let's go
My baby starts pickin' and a pickin' down low
My music makin' mama from Memphis, Tennessee

She'll play a little rhythm, do the boogie up right
A Tennessee polka, maybe blues in the night
Ever'body travels from near and far
To hear her when she picks it on that old guitar
My music makin' mama from Memphis, Tennessee

You gonna need some bodies on your bond

Baby person told a Dixie Sue
Listen to me baby
Mice in the razors, clay in the heaters
Mice in the razors, clay in the heaters

You gonna need somebody on your bond
You gonna need some bodies on your bond
Just you bear this in mind
True friends is hard to find
You gonna need some bodies on your bond

Automatic Sam told Everready Betty told Prestone Milly
With the long black wavey mane
Oh listen little girl don`t you understand?
Oh, you ain`t too old
No you ain`t too old
Well you ain`t too lold
As long as you can boogie you ain`t too old
Little girl, little girl
Little girl, little girl
Gonna take you for a ride in my Tarotplane
Gonna take you for a ride in my Tarotplane
You goin` flyin`
You goin` flyin`

Come on little girl
Gonna take you for a ride in my Tarotplane
Come on little girl
Gonna take you for a ride in my Tarotplane
Come on little girl
Gonna take you for a ride in my Tarotplane
In my Tarotplane
In my Tarotplane

In my Tarotplane
In my Tarotplane
In my Tarotplane

You gonna need somebody on your bond
You gonna need some bodies on your bond
Just you bear this in mind
True friends is hard to find
You gonna need some bodies on your bond

Music Makes Me


Music Makes Me
Composer(s): Gus Kahn; Edward Eliscu; Vincent Youmans
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
and various other artists



In me you see a sinner
And dancing is my crime
It seems a sin I've gotta give in
To syncopated time

It makes me lose my dignity
It makes me lose my poise
And some folks call it music
But my folks call it noise

I like music, old or new
But music makes me do the things I never should do
I like music, sweet or blue
But music makes me do the things I never should do

My self control was something to brag about
Now it's a gag about town
The things I do are never forgiven
For just when I'm livin' 'em down
I hear music, then I'm through
For music makes me do the things I never should do

I like music old or new
But music makes me.........
I like music sweet or blue
But music makes me.........

My self control was something
But now it's a gag about town
The things I do are never forgiven
But just when I'm livin' 'em down
I hear music then I'm through
For music makes me do the things I never should do
