Envoyez Le Générique
Envoyez Le Générique
((Adapted from: Thank You For The Music (ABBA) - 1977))
Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus - Alain Boublil - Daniel Boublil
Performer(s): Maurice Barrier & Marie Framboise - 1983
Je vous aimais bien, vous tous qui suiviez mes cours
Et je ne vais pas vous ennuyer d'un long discours
Promis je vais faire court
Vous dire sans détour
Que j'ai rencontré un monsieur charmant
Et pas prince pour autant
Je vous quitte, c'est la faute à l'amour
C'est parti...
Envoyez le générique, l'histoire est finie
La géographie... nie aussi
Décraquez les cancres, les tocards et les costauds
Plus besoin
On va tous lever l'ancre, à bientôt
C'est parti, envoyez le générique
Quatre, trois, deux, un, rideau !
Vous n'aviez pas tous la bosse des mathématiques
Oui mais quand on bosse, il faut avoir l'esprit logique
Et si je n'm'abuse
Aucune science infuse
Ne donne le carré de l'hypothénuse
Alors promettez-moi
De faire mieux quand je ne s'rai plus là
On fait des voyages ensemble dans les livres d'images
On se sépare à la dernière page
C'est magique
Fantastique
En musique
C'est parti, envoyez le générique
C'est lui qui a l'dernier mot

Thank You For Being A Friend
Thank You For Being A Friend
Composer(s): Andrew Gold
First release by: Andrew Gold - 1978
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down a road and back again
Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say
Thank you for being a friend
If it's a car you lack
I'd surely buy you a Cadillac
Whatever you need any time of the day or night
I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow
And when we both get older
With walking canes and hair of gray
Have no fear even though it's hard to hear
I will stand real close and say
Thank you for being a friend
And when we die
And float away
Into the night
The milky way
You'll hear me call
As we ascend
I'll say your name
Then once again
Thank you for being a friend

Me a wonderful time

I never felt this way before
After a very first date
I never knew what
One kiss could do
Gee, but the feeling is great
Baby, it's getting late
And I've gotta go
Here's something that
You ought to know
I've had the time of my life
(Time of my life)
Thank you and good night

Thank You (Led Zeppelin)
Thank You
Composer(s): Jimmy Page - Robert Plant
Performer(s): Led Zeppelin - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me
Kind woman, I give you my all
Kind woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain
Tears of loves lost in the days gone by
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong
Together we shall go until we die, my, my, my
Inspiration is what you are to me
Inspiration, look see
And so today, my world it smiles
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles
But thanks to you it will be done
For you to me are the only one, ah, ah yeah
Happiness, no more be sad
Happiness, I'm glad
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
Mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me

Lookin' at the devil, grinnin' at his gun
Fingers start shakin', I begin to run
Bullets start chasin', I begin to stop
We begin to wrestle I was on the top

Thank The Nurse
Thank The Nurse
Performer(s): Country Joe McDonald
Doctors and Physicians diagnose and prescribe
Surgeons can operate but they don't save your life
For when the fever's burning, who helps you through the night
Gives you medication and checks your vital signs?
When you wake up in recovery who's right there by your side?
With a smile and reassurance, restoring your self-pride.
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
The one that nursed you through
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
For saving your life... for saving your life...
For Saving Your Life!
Oh, the Doctor is important of that we can't deny
But when you get down to it, the Nurse keeps you alive
The one who cleans your body and bandages your wounds
The one who makes your bed, gives you medicine and food
Helps you through contractions, until the pain subsides
Encourage you to make it 'till you hear your baby cry!
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
The one that nursed you through
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
For saving your life... for saving your life...
For Saving Your Life!
When you're sick and convalescing you're seldom in the mood
To pay attention to the one attending you
So full of rack and worry you think you'll lose your mind
You survived the accident but all your friends have died
When the orderly is sleeping and physician can't be found
No need for apprehension a nurse is making rounds!
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
The one that nursed you through
Thank the Nurse that's nursing you
For saving your life... for saving your life...
For Saving Your Life!

Thank The Lord For The Night Time
Thank The Lord For The Night Time
Composer(s): Neil Diamond
Performer(s): Neil Diamond
Daytime turns me off, and I don't mean maybe
Nine-to-five ain't taking me where I'm bound
When it's done, I run out to see my baby
We get groovin' when the sun goes down
I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day of up, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation
It's a time to groove
I thank the Lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you
I'll talk about plans now, baby
I got plenty
Nothing ever seems turn out the the way it should
Talk about money, girl, I ain't got any
Seems like just one time I'm feeling' good
I thank the Lord for the night time
To forget the day of up, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxation
It's a time to groove
I thank the lord for the night time
I thank the Lord for you

Thank Heaven For Little Girls
Thank Heaven For Little Girls
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Frederick Loewe
First performance/First recording by: Maurice Chevalier - 1958/Hank Jones - 1958
Covered by multiple other artists
Now for example here we find
Exhibit A, the married kind
These ladies stood their ground and won
And I salute them, every one
Here are some others to behold
For whom the bells have never tolled
Oh what a poor defenseless pair
In those pathetic rags they wear
Each time I see a little girl
Of five or six or seven
I can't resist a joyous urge
To smile and say
Thank heaven for little girls
For little girls get
Bigger every day
Thank heaven for little girls
They grow up in
The most delightful way
Those little eyes
So helpless and appealing
When they were flashing
Send you crashing
Through the ceiling
Thank heaven for little girls
Thank heaven for them all
No matter where
No matter who
Without them
What would little boys do
Thank heaven
Thank heaven
Thank heaven for little girls

Chewin' Mama Blues
Chewin' Mama Blues
Composer(s): John Henry
Performer(s): Dinah Washington; Lucky Thompson
I'm in love with a man
Who's not in love with me
Yes, I'm in love with a man
Who's not in love with me
If I can't get that man
I'd just as soon be down deep in the sea
Yes, he's got everything I've wanted
And I'm not speaking of his gold
He's got everything I ever wanted
And I'm not speaking of his gold
He's got that certain somethin'
That really satisfies my soul
I'm telling you right now Baby
I'm gonna get you if I can
Yes, I'm telling you right now Baby
I'm going to get you if I can
How could you want another woman
When you know I can't use another man

Hey put a smile on your face
Things are coming your way out there
Somewhere tonight it is the right time and place
I saw you baby for the very first time
Couldn't take my eyes off you girl
You just had to be mine
You're the kind that people long for
It just had to be you girl
I know this time I'll make all my dreams come ture
Hey see the stars in his eyes
And the music in you tells you how
You can find your way to paradise
Hey put a smile on your face
Things are coming your way out there
Somewhere tonight it is the right time and place
Hey see the stars in his eyes
Does he value my love

Thank God I'm A Country Boy
Thank God I'm A Country Boy
Composer(s): John Sommers - John Martin Sommers
Performer(s): John Denver
Well, life on the farm is kind of laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
It's early to rise, early in the sack
Thank God, I'm A Country Boy
Well a simple kind of life never did me no harm
raisin' me a family and working on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I'm a country boy
When the work's all done and the sun's setting low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin' up the bow
The kids are asleep so I keep it kind of low
Thank God I'm a country boy
I'd play "Sally Goodin'" all day if I could
But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can, work when I should
Thank God, I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm A country boy
Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farming tools
Thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, city folk driving in a black limousine
A lot of sad people thinking that's mighty keen
Son, let me tell you now exactly what I mean
I thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me an old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
He said... 'Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
And thank God you're a country boy
"My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
Taught me how to love and how to give just a little
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy

Thank God I Found You
Thank God I Found You
Composer(s): James Harris - Mariah Carey - Terry Lewis
Performer(s): Joe Henderson, Mariah Carey, 98 Degrees
(Mariah)
I would give up everything
Before I'd separate myself from you
After so much suffering
I've finally found a man that's true
I was all by myself for the longest time
So cold inside
And the hurt from the heart it would not subside
I felt like dying
Until you saved my life
(All)
Thank God I found you
I was lost without you
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
'Cause baby I'm so thankful
I found you
(Joe)
I would give you everything
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do
To ensure your happiness
I'll cherish every part of you
Because without you beside me I can't survive
I don't wanna try
If you're keeping me warm each and every night
I'll be all right
'Cause I need you in my life
(All)
Thank God I found you (I'm begging you)
I was lost without you (so lost without you)
My every wish and every dream (every dream, every dream)
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight (brought the sunlight)
Completed my whole life
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
'Cause baby I'm so thankful
I found you
(Mariah & Joe)
See I was so desolate
Before you came to me
Looking back I guess it shows
that we were destined to shine
After the rain to appreciate
And care for what we have
And I'd go through it all over again
To be able to feel this way
(All)
Thank God I found you
I was lost without you (lost without you baby)
My every wish and every dream
Somehow became reality
When you brought the sunlight
Completed my whole life (whole life)
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
Sweet baby I'm so thankful
I found you
(All)
Thank God I found you
I was lost without you
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
My baby I'm so thankful
I found you
(Mariah)
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude
My baby I'm so thankful I found you

Aamunkoittoon et oottanutkaan
lilja, ruusu, kirsikkapuu
Vain muiston talteen talvelta saan
paljon jää ja pois unohtuu
Kerroitko kaikkea minkä mä näin
lilja, ruusu, kirsikkapuu
Niin monta kertaa sanoitta jäin
polku luokses' nyt sammaltuu
Kerroinko onnesta minkä mä sain
lilja, ruusu, kirsikkapuu
Niin paljon kannoit mun huolistain
Raidat kirkkaat nyt haalistuu
Kertoa kuinka nyt sinulle voin
lilja, ruusu, kirsikkapuu
Kun lähdit niin kaiken jäätyvän koin
Laulu linnun pois vaientuu
Aamunkoittoon et oottanutkaan
lilja, ruusu, kirsikkapuu
Vain muiston talteen talvelta saan
paljon jää ja pois unohtuu

At the wrong end of the highway
When the long night has no end
When there's no one there beside me
'Til I hold you once again
Thank God for the radio when I'm on the road
When I'm far from home and feelin' blue
Thank God for the radio playin' all night long
Playin' all the songs that mean so much to me and you
There's a song that we first danced to
There's a song that played the night we met
There's a song we fell in love to
That's a song I'll never forget
Thank God for the radio when I'm on the road
When I'm far from home and feelin' blue
Thank God for the radio playin' all night long
Playin' all the songs that mean so much to me and you
Thank God for the radio when I'm on the road
When I'm far from home and feelin' blue
Thank God for the radio playin' all night long

Thank God For Kids
Thank God For Kids
Composer(s): Eddy Raven
Performer(s): The Oakridge Boys
and multiple other artists
If it weren't for kids
have you ever thought
There wouldn't be no Santa Claus?
Or look what the stork just brought
Thank God for kids.
And we'd all live in a quiet house
Without Big Bird or a Mickey Mouse
Or Kool-aid on the couch
Thank God for kids
Thank God for kids
there's magic for awhile
A special kind of sunshine in a smile
Do you ever stop to think or wonder why?
The nearest thing to heaven is a child
Daddy how does this thing fly?
And a hundred other where's and why's
I really don't know but I try
Thank God for kids
When I look down
in those trusting eyes
That look to me I realize
There's a love that I can't buy
Thank God for kids
When you get down on your knees tonight
And thank the Lord for His guiding light
And pray they'll turn out right
Thank God for kids
Thank God for kids

Thank God And Greyhound
Thank God And Greyhound
Composer(s): Larry Kingston - Earl Nix
Performer(s): Roy Clark; Ray Pillow
I've made a small fortune, and you've squandered it all
You've shamed me till I feel about one inch tall
But I thought I loved you, and I hoped you would change
so I gritted my teeth and didn't complain
Now you've come to me with a simple goodbye
You tell me you're leaving, but you won't tell me why
We're here at the station and you're getting on
And all I can think of is...
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
I didn't know how much longer I could go on
watching you take the respect out of me
watching you make a total wreck out of me
That big diesel motor is a playing my song
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
That load on my mind got lighter when you got on
That shiney old bus is a beautiful sight
with the black smoke rolling up around the tail lights
It may sound kinda cruel, but I've been silent too long
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

I'm singing love's old song
The one that when things go wrong, makes you happy
Makes you feel fine

It's heaven loving with you
La la la lalalala

I'm singing love's old song
Together we'll sing along
It's heaven loving with you
It's heaven loving with you
