Celluloid Heroes
Celluloid Heroes
Composer(s): Ray Davies
First release by: The Kinks - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are
There are stars in every city
In every house and on every street
And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Their names are written in concrete!
Don't step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the Boulevard
She looks so weak and fragile that's why she tried to be so hard
But they turned her into a princess
And they sat her on a throne
But she turned her back on stardom
Because she wanted to be alone
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive
And he looks up ladies dresses as they sadly pass him by
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi
'Cos he's liable to turn and bite
But stand close by Bette Davis
Because hers was such a lonely life
If you covered him with garbage
George Sanders would still have style
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney
He would still turn round and smile
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn
'Cos she's not very tough
She should have been made of iron or steel
But she was only made of flesh and blood
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are
And those who are successful
Be always on your guard
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along Hollywood Boulevard
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die
You can see all the stars as you walk along Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die

If every word I said

The Girl Of My Best Friend
The Girl Of My Best Friend
Composer(s): Sam Bobrick - Ruby
First release by: Elvis Presley - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists
The way she walks
The way she talks
How long can I pretend
Oh I can't help I'm in love
With the girl of my best friend
Her lovely hair
Her skin so fair
I could go on and never end
Oh, I can't help I'm in love
With the girl of my best friend
I want to tell her
How I love her so
And hold her in my arms, but then
What if she got real mad and told him so
I could never face either one again
The way they kiss
Their happiness
Will my ache-in' ever end
Or will I always be in love
With the girl of my best friend?
Never end,
Will it ever end?
Please let it end

Cello Song
Cello Song
Composer(s): Nick Drake
First release by: Nick Drake - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that came to you when so young
Told of a life
Where spring is sprung
You would seem so frail
In the cold of the night
When the armies of emotion
Go out to fight
But while the earth sinks to its grave
You sail to the sky
On the crest of a wave
So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
I'll just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud

Forever (Chicago)
Forever
Composer(s): Robert Lamm; Bill Gable
Performer(s): Chicago
Every day it seems we hear the same old story
Every day there's lovers giving up on love
People say it's just a fact of modern living
All around us, people fall in love and marry
Then we hear they're breaking up, and wonder why?
Did they mean it when they said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel
Chorus:
Forever
Is a long, long time
Longer than we ever realize
Forever
Is a long, long time
I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
Forever
Every day I spend with you, I call it lucky
Every night we touch and speak the words of love
Did I mean it when I said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel
Chorus
I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
Forever

The Girl Is Mine
The Girl Is Mine
Composer(s): Michael Jackson
First release by: Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney - 1982
(Michael)
Every night she walks right in my dreams
Since I met her from the start
I'm so proud I am the only one
Who is special in her heart
The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
I know she's mine
Because the doggone girl is mine
(Paul)
I don't understand the way you think
Saying that she's yours not mine
Sending roses and your sill dreams
Really just a waste of time
Because she's mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
I love you more than he
(Take you anywhere)
(Michael)
But I love you endlessly
(Loving we will share)
(Michael & Paul)
So come and go with me
Two on the town
(Michael)
But we both cannot have her
So it's one or the other
And one day you'll discover
That she's my girl forever and ever
(Paul)
Don't build your hopes to be let down
'Cause I really feel it's time
(Michael)
I know she'll tell you I'm the one for her
'Cause she said I blow her mind
The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
(Michael & Paul)
She's mine, she's mine
No, no, no, she's mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
(Paul)
The girl is mine, (yep) she's mine
The girl is mine, (yes) she's mine
(Michael)
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
(Paul)
Michael, we're not going to fight about this, okay
(Michael)
Paul, I think I told you, I'm a lover not a fighter
(Paul)
I've heard it all before, Michael, she told me that I'm her forever lover
You know, don't you remember
(Michael)
Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another
(Paul)
Is that what she said
(Michael)
Yes, she said it, you keep dreaming
(Paul sings)
I don't believe it
(Michael & Paul)
The girl is mine (mine, mine, mine)...
(Repeat)

Celle Qui T'a Laissé Tomber
Celle Qui T'a Laissé Tomber
Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
C'était un de ces étés chauds
Humides, collants à la peau
L'orage ne faisait que gronder
Les flics rôdaient dans l' quartier
Les gens marchaient à pas lents
Comm' pour retenir le temps
Des gosses dans le caniveau
Jouaient au pistolet à eau
C'est là que j' l'ai vue passer
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber
Elle sortait d' la bouche du métro
J'ai vu briller ton couteau
Tu as cherché à te venger
La marquer, lui faire payer
J' te cause, t'embrouille, te raisonne
Peine de cœur, y a pas mort d'homme
Et puis t'es pas assez beau
Pour faire la "une" des journaux
J' vais t'aider à l'oublier
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber
Puis tu sais, ça sert à rien
D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
Ça s'rait trop lui accorder
À cell' qui t'a laissé tomber
Oui tu sais, ça sert à rien
D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
Elle s' fout d' c' qui peut t'arriver
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber
C'était un de ces étés chauds
Où le moindr' geste est de trop
Après 2 ou 3 bières glacées
T'as fini par te calmer
T'as r'trouvé l'appartement
Avec ta mère, son amant
D'puis qu' ton père a foutu le camp
Tu disjonctes trop souvent
C'est pas tout ça, j' vais retrouver
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

Darlin', forever, forever
You can break my heart
Forever, if you want to
I'll play the part of a fool
Just to be with you forever
Forever, darling, forever
You can taunt me
Take my love for granted
But I'll always be just a fool
Just to be with you forever
I'll be your slave
For the rest of my days
Love you more in so many ways
Just to be with you thrills me through and through
And darlin', forever, forever
You can taunt me
Take my love for granted
But I'll always be just a fool
Just to be with you forever
Forever, forever, I'll love you so

Girl In The Wood
Girl In The Wood
Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson - Neal Stuart
Performer(s): Frankie Laine
(Remember me, remember me)
(Remember for the rest of your life)
Oh when I was a young boy
And drove my mother wild
I met a maiden in the woods
And she said, "Child,
Look deep into my green eyes
And at my autumn hair
When your a man you'll never see
A girl quite as fair
Remember me, oh, remember me"
(Remember for the rest of your life)
Her eyes were green as grassy pools
Lookin' right at me
Her hair was red and grown with leaves
Just like an autumn tree
She moved her tiny hands
And she made a litle turn
She swayed in the wind
Just like a graceful fern
I swore as she vanished
That when I was full grown
I'd have a girl just like her
To be my very own
And now I am a man
Would I'd marry if I could
For I can't lose the memory
Of the girl in the wood
Remember me oh remember me
(Remember)
Remember for the rest of your life
(Remember)
I wished a hundred times
That she'd never looked at me
With the first wild beauty
That only you can't see
For man cannot find it
When he's lookin for a wife
And he'll end up in bachelorhood
The rest of his life
Remember me, oh, remember me
Remember for the rest of your life
Remember me, remember me
Remember for the rest of your life

Celle Que J'oublie
Celle Que J'oublie
Composer(s): J.M. Rivat
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Il est temps que je te quitte
Notre amour s'en est allé
Couché près de toi je n'ai plus que sommeil
Mais tes yeux se font plus tendres
Tu ne sembles pas comprendre
Que tu n'as plus rien à faire dans ma vie
Aujourd'hui tu n'es que celle que j'oublie
C'est fini, je fais peau neuve
Quand je partirai demain
Tu seras une lumiere qui s'éteint
Toi qui étais mon Espagne
Toi mon pays de cocagne
Toi tu n'as plus rien à faire dans ma vie
Aujourd'hui tu n'es que celle que j'oublie

Forever (And Always)
Composer(s): Lefty Frizzell; Leslie Lyle
Performer(s): Lefty Frizzell
Forever and always my love will be true
I'd wait for a lifetime if you asked me to
You make me so happy, then leave me so blue
But I'd wait forever and always for you
Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold
Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
Forever and always to have and to hold

The Girl In The Little Green Hat
The Girl In The Little Green Hat
Composer(s): Jack Scholl - Bradford Browne - Max Rich
Performer(s): Rudy Vallée & His Connecticut Yankees
and multiple other artists
There's a lake in the park
There's a house by the lake
There's a girl in the house in the park by the lake
And the girl in the house by the lake in the park
Is the girl in the little green hat
And tonight after eight
That's when I've got a date
When the moon's riding high and the stars light the sky
With the girl in the house by the lake in the park
The girl in the little green hat
There's no water in the lake
there's no roof upon the house
No treesies in the park at all
But she'll wait beside the lake
I'll be welcome at the house
I'll meet her by the garden wall
There's a ship on the lake
There's a sailor on the shore
There's a girl in his arms, she's the girl I adore
So goodbye to the house by the lake in the park
And the girl in the little green hat
There's a storm on the lake
There's a ship in the storm
There's a girl on the ship in the storm on the lake
And the girl in the lake on the ship in the storm
Is the girl in the little green hat
As the ship starts to dip
She is losing her grip
Every dip makes a tip, not the girl, but the ship
But the girl on the ship has the pip from the trip
The girl in the little green hat
She's been sailing quite enough
She's been clinging to the rails
She's been dying to be home once more
'Cause the lake is rather rough
And the girl is rather pale
She's glad to get her feet on shore
Ah, she gave up the ship
And the captain and his men
Bought a round ticket trip to my arms once again
Now I'm back in the park at the house by the lake
With the girl in the little green hat

Cell Of Fame
Composer(s): Andy Powell - Laurie Wisefield - Mervyn Spence - Steve Upton
Performer(s): Wishbone Ash
Isadora
Dancing
Can you see her?
Che guavara
Marching beside her
Valentino
Loving every minute?
Don’t you see them looking
Looking down on you?
Pictures on the walls of your room
Gonna help you play the parts
Of your ever changing mood
Lying low
The cast is set around your bones
When all you ever wanted to be
Was plain Mister Jones
Cell of fame
It’s gonna trap you forever
Self confessions
And your back’s against the wall
Idolized by the hands that hold the key
Not even time will set you free
When it’s your turn to leave
Hung at dawn
Then you will join up
With the faces looking on
That’s where you belong
Cell of fame
It’s gonna trap you forever
Self confessions
And your back’s against the wall

Forest For The Trees
Forest For The Trees
Composer(s): Jerome Fletcher;
Bill Gibson; Huey Lewis; Loggins
Performer(s): Huey Lewis & The News
When you're a young man, down and out
You really need someone to help you out
It looks like life or death is your only choice
It's really hard to see
The forest for the trees
The forest for the trees
And when you get angry and everything's black or white
You should know that it isn't that simple, no one's always right
You know that your life is worth living
You gotta start taking if no one else is giving
And if you're not afraid to open your eyes
You may be pleasantly surprised
Things are never as bad as they seem
You just gotta learn to see
The forest for the trees
So if you need somebody, tell them please
If you want someone, get up off your knees
Things are never as bad as they seem
You just gotta learn to see
The forest for the trees

When she goes out walking
She has the town talking
The girl in the bonnet of blue

One day we'll meet
And maybe I'll talk with
And maybe I'll walk with
The girl in the bonnet of blue
A lady of quality
Gracious and sweet
If fate is kind to me
One day we'll meet
And maybe I'll talk with
And maybe I'll walk with
The girl in the bonnet of blue

So I came home this one day
And I am reAlly irritated
And looking for a little sympathy
And there's Bernie layin' on the couch
Drinkin' a beer and chewin'
No, not chewin'... Poppin'
So, I said to him
I said, "You pop that gum one more time..."
And he did.
So I took the shotgun off the wAll
And I fired two warning shots... into his head!
All:
He had it coming

Have dome the same
Annie:
I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake city
About two years ago
And he told me he was single
And we hit it off right away
So, we started living together
He'd go to work, he'd come home
I'd fix him a drink, we'd have dinner
And then I found out
"Single" he told me?
Single, my ass!
Not only was he married
Oh, no, he had six wives!
One of those Mormons, you know
So that night, when he came home
I fixed him his drink as usual
You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic!
All:
He had it coming
He had it coming
He took a flower
In its prime
And then he used it
And he abused it
It was a murder
But not a crime!
June:
Now, I'm standing in the kitchen
Carvin' up the chicken for dinner
Minding my own business
And in storms my husband Wilbur
In a jealous rage
"You been screwin' the milkman!" he says
He was crazy and he kept screamin'
"You been screwin the milkman!"
And then he ran into my knife
He ran into my knife ten times!
All:
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same

Hunyak:
Uh uh! Not guilty!
Velma:
My sister, Veronica and I did this double act
And my husband, Charlie, used to travel round with us
Now, for the last number in our act
we did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row
One, two, three, four, five... splits, spread-eagles
Back flips, flip flops, one right after the other
So this one night before the show
We're down at the hotel Cicero, the three of us, boozin'
Havin' a few laughs and we ran out of ice
So I go out to get some
I come back, open the door, and there's Veronica and Charlie
Doing Number Seventeen, the spread-eagle
Well, I was in such a state of shock
I completely blacked out, I can't remember a thing
It wasn't until later when I was washing the blood off my hands
I even knew they were dead.
Velma: They had it coming

Mona:
I loved Al Lipschitz more than I can possibly say
He was a real artistic guy... sensitive... a painter
But he was always trying to find himself
He'd go out every night looking for himself
And on the way he found Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary and Irving
I guess you can say we broke up because of artistic differences
He saw himself as alive and I saw him dead!
All:

Forest Fire
Forest Fire
Composer(s): Dead Kennedys
Performer(s): Dead Kennedys
No junk food, just earthly goods
I ate weird berries in the woods
Now I'm seeing colors
I'm getting higher
I think I'll start a forest fire
There's a forest fire climbin' the hill
Burnin' wealthy California homes
Better run run run run run
From the fire
But some of us stay and watch
And we think of your insurance cost
And we laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh
At your lives
Windows covered with bars
Security guards
Is that a house or a fortress
Against the world
Windows covered with bars
Security guards
Is that a house or a prison
How you gonna get out?
Electric bull and your tennis courts
Pink sports cars and your boat
Getting fried fried fried fried fried fried
By the fire
Windows covered by bars
Floodlights for the yard
It's a pleasure to watch you
Watch it all melt
But hey!
What about the cocaine
Stockpiled in the basement
Be a hero and save it
You know you're gonna need it
Where's your brand new pretty wife
She might still be inside
Either save her or your cocaine from the fire
But the gates and doors are locked
Cause the burglar alarms went off
Ever wonder why we laugh laugh
At your lives
Windows covered with bars
Fences spiked with barbed wire
Never looked so helpless
Engulfed in flames
Cameras watchin' the walls
Don't forget the dogs
Now you're trapped in your prison
How you gonna get out
See the gerbil
Run run run run run run run run
Run run run run run run run run
Run run run run run run run run
From the fire

Girl In The Blue Velvet Band
Girl In The Blue Velvet Band
Composer(s): Cliff Carlisle - Mel Foree
Performer(s): Bill Monroe
and multiple other artists
One evening while out for a ramble
The hour was just about nine
I met a young maiden in 'Frisco
On the corner of Cherry and Pine
On her face there was beauty of nature
And her eyes seem to expand
Her hair was so rich and so brilliant
Entwined in a blue velvet band
We strolled down the long street together
In my pocket she placed a small hand
She Planted the evidence on me
A diamond that was worth ten grand
Then I heard the wild scream of the sirens
And the girl in the blue velvet band
She left me to face all the troubles
With a diamond that was worth ten grand
They sent me to San Quenton for stealin'
God knows I'm an innocent man
For the guilty one now she lies dyin'
That girl in the blue velvet band
Last night while bedtime was ringin'
I was standin' close to the bars
I fancied I could hear her voice callin'
From far out on the ocean of stars
I'll be out in a week then I'm leavin'
But I'll carry the name of a man
Who spent ten years in this prison
For the girl in the blue velvet band
Last night while bedtime was ringin'
I was standin' close to the bars
I fancied I could hear her voice callin'
From far out on the ocean of stars
