Cenizas
Cenizas
Composer(s): Wello Rivas
Performer(s): Javier Solís
Después de tanto soportar la pena de sentir tu olvido
después que todo te lo dio mi pobre corazón herido
has vuelto a verme para que yo sepa de tu desventura
por la amargura de un amor igual al que me diste tú
Ya no podré ni perdonar ni darte lo que tú me diste
has de saber que de un cariño muerto no existe rencor
y si pretendes remover las ruinas que tú mismo hiciste
sólo cenizas hallarás de todo lo que fue mi amor

The Going Ups And The Coming Downs
The Going Ups And The Coming Downs
Composer(s): Jim Weatherly
First release by: Gladys Knight & The Pips - 1974
One day you say you love me
The next day it’s goodbye
The next you say you’re sorry
And you wanna give it one more try
Ooh, the way you change your mind
Time and time again
Well, I don’t know if I’m behind
Or just about to end, hey
Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin’ ups and the comin’ downs
Ooh, hoo
Ooh, hoo
One minute you’re warm and lovin’
The next your heart’s grown cold
The way you keep me guessin’
Is killin’ my soul
Ooh, just when my hopes run high
And I think I’ve got it made
Hey... hey... along comes a rainy day
To rain on my parade, hey, hey, hey
Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin’ ups and the comin’ downs
Oh... ho...
I don’t know just what it is about you
That keeps me from walkin’ out the door
Mmm... mmm... hmm...
Just when I think that I can get along without you
You just say something nice
And I come struttin’ back for more
One day our world’s a dream
Next it falls apart, mmm, hmm
And I don’t even think you know
What you’re doin’ to my heart
Mmm, I guess I’ll never learn
Some people never do
But when I feel like givin’ up
I just can’t give up on you, hey, hey, hey
Certain lies, smiles and frowns, huh
The goin’ ups and the comin’ downs, hey, hey, hey
Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin’ ups and the comin’ downs
Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin’ ups and the comin’ downs, hey, hey, hey, hey
Certain lies, smiles and frowns
The goin’ ups

Cemento Armato
Cemento Armato
Composer(s): Aldo Tagliapietra - Antonio Pagliuca
Performer(s): Le Orme
Cemento armato la grande città
senti la vita che se ne va
vicino a casa non si respira
è sempre buio ci si dispera
Ci son più sirene nell'aria che canti di usignoli
E meglio fuggire e non tornare più
Dolce risveglio il sole è con me
Nell'aria le note di una chitarra
la casa è lontana, gli amici di ieri
è tutto svanito , non li ricordo più
Cemento armato la grande città
senti la vita che se ne va

Forever Man
Forever Man
Composer(s): Jerry Lynn Williams
Performer(s): Eric Clapton; Beatchuggers
How many times must I tell you babe
How many bridges I’ve got to cross?
How many times must I explain myself
Before I can talk to the boss
’fore I can talk to the boss?
How many times must I say I love you
Before you finally understand?
Won’t you be my forever woman?
I’ll try to be your forever man
Try to be your forever man
Second verse
Forever man, forever man, forever man
Forever man, forever man, forever man
Try to be your forever man
Forever man, forever man, forever man
Forever man, forever man, forever man
Try to be your forever man

The Gnu Song
The Gnu Song
Composer(s): Michael Flanders - Donald Swann
Performer(s): Flanders & Swann; John Lithgow
A year ago, last Thursday
I was strolling in the zoo
when I met a man who though he knew the lot
He was laying down the law about the habits of baboons
And how many spines a porcupine has got
So I asked him
"What's that creature there?"
He answered, "Oh, it's a h'Elk"
I might of gone on thinking that was true
If the animal in question hadn't put that chap to shame
And remarked, "I h'aint a h'Elk, I'm a Gnu"
"I'm a Gnu
I'm a Gnu
The g-nicest work of g-nature in the zoo
I'm a Gnu
How do you do
You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho's
I'm a Gnu
Spelt G-n-u
I'm g-not a Camel or a Kangaroo
So let me introduce
I'm g-neither man or moose
Oh g-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu"
I had taken furnished lodgings down at Rustington-on-Sea
Whence I travelled on to Ashton-under-Lyne it was actually
And the second night I stayed there I was woken from a dream
That I'll tell you all about some other time
Among the hunting trophies on the wall above my bed
Stuffed and mounted, was a face I thought I knew
A Bison? No, it's not a Bison.
An Okapi? Unlikely
Really
A Hartebeest?
When I though I heard a voice...
"I'm a Gnu
I'm a Gnu
A g-nother gnu
I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you
I'm a Gnu
How do you do
You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho's
I'm a Gnu
Spelt G-n-u
Call me Bison or Okapi and I'll sue
G-nor am I the least like that dreadful Hartebeest
Oh, g-no, g-no, g-no
G-no g-no g-no, I'm a Gnu
G-no g-no g-no, I'm a Gnu"

Forever In Blue Jeans
Composer(s): Richard Bennett; Neil Diamond
Performer(s): Neil Diamond;
and various other artists
Money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it don't walk
And long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans.
Honey's sweet
But it ain't nothin' next to baby's treat
And if you pardon me
I'd like to say
We'll do okay
Forever in blue jeans
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight, you and I
All alone by the fire
Nothing around
But the sound of my heart
And your sighs.
Money talks
But it don't sing and dance
And it don't walk
And long as I can have you here with me
I'd much rather be
Forever in blue jeans, babe

The Gnome
The Gnome
Composer(s): Syd Barrett
First release by: Pink Floyd - 1967
I want to tell you a story
'Bout a little man
If I can
A gnome named Grimble Gromble
And little gnomes stay in their homes
Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine
He wore a scarlet tunic
A blue-green hood, it looked quite good
He had a big adventure
Amidst the grass, fresh air at last
Wining, dining, biding his time
And then one day
Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
Oooh, my...
Look at the sky
Look at the river
Isn't it good?
Look at the sky
Look at the river
Isn't it good?
Winding, finding places to go
And then one day
Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
Oooh, my...
Oooh, my...

Taka Takata (La Femme Du Toréro)
Taka Takata (La Femme Du Toréro)
Composer(s): Claude Lemesle
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Taka takata kata kata kata
J'entends mon cœur qui bat
Taka takata kata kata kata
Au rythme de ses pas
La sangria coulait
À la feria de Tolède
La fille qui dansait
M'était montée à la tête
Quand un banderillo
Me dit "l'ami, reste calme
Prends garde au torero
Si tu regardes sa femme"
Mais elle s'avance vers moi
Et laisse tomber sa rose
Avec un billet qui propose
Un rendez-vous à l'hacienda
On s'était enlacés sous l'oranger
Mais la dueña dont c'était le métier
Criait "vengeance, aux arènes!"
Le matador trompé
Surgit de l'ombre et s'avance
Moi, sur mon oranger
J'essaie de faire l'orange
Taka takata kata kata kata
J'entends mon cœur qui bat
Taka takata kata kata kata
Au rythme de ses pas
"L'homme, tu vas payer"
Dit-il, "voici l'estocade
Mes picadors sont prêts
Et mon œil noir te regarde"
Et c'est depuis ce jour
Qu'un toréro me condamme
A balayer sa cour
Pour l'avoir faite à sa femme
Taka takata kata kata kata
J'entends mon cœur qui bat
Taka takata kata kata kata
Au rythme de ses pas

Forever For You
Forever For You
Composer(s): Paul Barry;
John Oates; Mark Taylor; Steve Torch
Performer(s): Darryl Hall & John Oates
Does anyone know what love can cost
It'll take you so high then leave you lost
Is it a mystery
that runs too deep
for such a simple heart
Can anyone stop the hands of time
and put back the loving in your eyes
Though it's his name I hear when you are sleeping
I'll pretend it's mine
(chorus)
When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
A rose is a rose by any name
but a thorn will still cut you just the same
I'm losing your love I know
so sad the feeling
I can tell somebody's stealing
Stealing away your heart
When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
I don't know if I should tell you
how you live in my heart
There's no room for another
If you leave me now
my heart would not recover
When they ask me how long I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand right there beside you
and they don't see you and me the way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you

Composer(s): Lilla Cayley Robinson - Heinz Bolton-Baeckers - Paul Lincke
Performer(s): May Naudain - 1907
and multiple other artists
Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer
Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer
Lead us lest too far we wander
Love's sweet voice is calling yonder
Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer
Hey, there don't get dimmer, dimmer
Light the path below, above
And lead us on to love!
Glow little glow-worm, fly of fire
Glow like an incandescent wire
Glow for the female of the species
Turn on the AC and the DC
This night could use a little brightnin'
Light up you little ol' bug of lightnin'
When you gotta glow, you gotta glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow and glimmer
Swim through the sea of night, little swimmer
Thou aeronautical boll weevil
Illuminate yon woods primeval
See how the shadows deep and darken
You and your chick should get to sparkin'
I got a gal that I love so
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, turn the key on
You are equipped with taillight neon
You got a cute vest-pocket *Mazda*
Which you can make both slow and *fazda*
I don't know who you took a shine to
Or who you're out to make a sign to
I got a gal that I love so
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow!!

Celui Qui Ne Savait Pas Pleurer
Celui Qui Ne Savait Pas Pleurer
Composer(s): Henri Contet - Jean-Claude Normant
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
C'est l'histoire d'un type moyen
Qui n'avait jamais pu pleurer
Il en avait pas les moyens
Pourtant, il aurait bien aimé
Car de pleurer, ça vous soulage
Et ça vous met du baume dans l'cœur
Mais lui, il avait passé l'âge
D'apprendre le chagrin par cœur
Il essayait de se concentrer
Pour s'émouvoir à l'improviste
Mais non : il savait pas pleurer
Et c'est ça qui le rendait triste
Pour se payer ce petit instant
Où l'on est vraiment malheureux
Y s'fabriquait des embêtements
Inventait des ennuis sérieux
Et pour ça, il savait s'y prendre
À en juger par son passé
Il avait même tenté de se pendre
Preuve qu'il aimait pas rigoler
Quand s'présentait un beau malheur
Tout de suite il lui faisait du charme
Mais il avait beau s'crever l'cœur
Il pouvait pas trouver une larme
Ça lui a passé subitement
Rencontrant près d'une fontaine
Où se débarbouillait l'printemps
Une gosse qui avait de la peine
Dans son petit tablier de toile
Elle pleurait comme une enfant
Il a vu ses yeux pleins d'étoiles
Alors il en a fait autant
Un type comme ça, c'est pas commun
Car il était pas comme nous autres
Puisque, pour qu'il ait du chagrin
Il lui fallait l'chagrin des autres
La gosse était toute seule au monde
Tout' seule le jour, tout' seule la nuit
Et puis surtout, elle était blonde
Alors il l'a prise avec lui
Il est content puisque c'est elle
Qui lui a appris à pleurer
Mais la leçon était trop belle
La fille aussi... tout a raté
Il est devenu bien malheureux
Trompé plus qu'il ne le mérite
Et tous les jours, il pleure un peu
Maintenant qu'il sait, il en profite

Forever Faithful
Composer(s): Robert Bateman; J. Wicker
Performer(s): Florence Ballard
Memories of the love we had are still a part of me
I pushed your love away and knew that one day
I would yearn for your return
Chorus:
Forever Faithful, yes I am
I guess my love will live for you
Just wishin' and hopin' for your return
Now I'm all alone, it hurts to be alone
Won't you please come see about me?
This time I'll do right, need you to hold me tight
Darling, you, you control my destiny
Oh oh oh
(chorus)
On and on, deep down inside, I have no one but myself to blame
I have but one wish, that you return, conquer the love that remains
Oh oh oh
(chorus x2)
Forever faithful ...

You’ve got to give a little, take a little

And when the world is through with you
You’ve got each other’s arms

Lose a little

Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Jamais, jamais
On ne tiendra ma vie
Comme toi, tu vois
Je suis pris
Toujours, l'amour
C'est près de toi
Que mon cœur la désiré
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer

Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Il n'a pas su t'aimer
Te prouver un jour
Son amour en retour
Te voyant souffrir
Mon cœur t'a prise
À lui, c'est vrai
Sans regrets
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Avant
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Il tenait ton amour
Enfermé dans ses bras
Sans savoir que c'était toi
Mais, c'est trop tard
Oui, tu vois
Il peut pleurer
A présent, tu es à moi
Qu'il revienne
Qu'il revienne
Celui qui t'a fait pleurer
Avant

Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes;
and various other artists
There you were
Standing there
As your eyes reached out to me
Something warm in your eyes
Touched my heart right then and there
All the love I never knew

My world stood still
My life was then fulfilled
As you gently touched my hand
I knew that we had laid a plan
For everlasting love
That I been forever dreaming of
At last
Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life)
And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)
It came today
Forever came today
As we were standing there
You didn't speak a single word
But your eyes
Your eyes said you wanted me
Your touch said you needed me
And my heart said tenderly
Darling
Ooh, my darling
Make me yours
Let your kiss touch my face
And tell me love has led me
To this place to your warm embrace
Hello happiness
Thanks to you my search has ended
And I want the world to see
How gently love has shined on me
With everlasting love
That I been forever dreaming of

And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)

When you walked into my life (When you walked into my life)
And made my lonely life
A paradise (A paradise)
Oh, it came today
Forever came today

Ooh, at last
My forever came today (My forever came today)
When you walked into my life..

Glass Bottom Boat
Glass Bottom Boat
Composer(s): Ben Raleigh - Joe Lubin - Mark Barkan
Performer(s): Doris Day
All aboard, all aboard
On the glass bottom boat
It's the greatest show that was ever afloat
Take a ride on the tide with the guide and see
The way out wonders of the deep blue sea
The deep blue sea, the deep blue sea
There's a lot to see, in the deep blue sea
The sailfish sail and the blowfish blow
Cockles & mussels alive-alive-o
The hermit crab, he lives alone
You can't even get him on the telephone
The halibut's eyes turn up and in
He don't know where he's going, but he knows where he's been
The deep blue sea, the deep blue sea
There's a lot to see in the deep blue sea
The glass bottom boat, you will agree
Can show you the magic of the deep blue sea
Spiney crabs and white fish too
Will all be there, what a hullabaloo
With so many fish upon the sea
There's hardly room for a fat sardine
The deep blue sea, the deap blue sea
There's a lot goin' on in the deep blue sea
Oh life on the glass bottom boat is great
(I'm the captain) You could use a mate
(Now the girl is slow, but not so dumb
He has his own condominium)
A bluebird oyster was caught with "foyle"
He "swoyre" he didn't even know the "goyle"
The deep blue sea, the deep blue sea
There's a lot to see in the deep blue sea
The glass bottom boat, you will agree
Can show you the magic of the deep blue sea
The flyin' fish was an awful ham
Made a three-point landing in a fryin' pan
The porpoise has the most hutzpah
But the whales are ones with the built-in showers
Starfish, starfish, two-pence all
Abelone in the casserole
Winding, binding, joining up
Is growing, growing, growing up
Ahhh...
All aboard, all aboard
On the glass bottom boat
It's the greatest show that was ever afloat
Take a ride on the tide with the guide and see
The way out wonders of the deep blue sea
All aboard, all aboard
On the glass bottom boat
It's the greatest show that was ever afloat
Take a ride on the tide with the guide and see
The way out wonders of the deep blue sea
