Changes (Alan Price)
Changes
Composer(s): Alan Price
Performer(s): Alan Price
Everyone is going through changes
No one knows what's going on
And everybody changes places
But the world still carries on
Love must always change to sorrow
And everyone must play the game
It's here today and gone tomorrow
But the world goes on the same
Everyone is going through changes
Now love must always change to sorrow
Everyone is going through changes
Now love must always change to sorrow
Everyone is going through changes
But the world still carries on

From His Woman To You
From His Woman To You
Composer(s): Bettye Crutcher; Larry "Ace" Snell
Performer(s): Barbara Mason
"Hello Barbara, this is Shirley
I would like you to know that the man ...
Now wait a minute Shirley
I'm a young woman
And can't aford to all the things you do for this man
I don't even have a job
And I can't buy his clothes, pay his car notes
And I surely can't keep money in his pocket
But I can give him what he needs, when he needs it
And that's all he expects from me"
I can give him love
From his woman to you
There is a thing or two I'd like to say
I don't care who claims this man
I'm gonna love him in a way ...
Woman to woman
He spent last night with me
Stayed here cause this is where he wanted to be
From his woman to you
I've got to make it
Just play as I can
Seems to me you're doing too much for the man
From his woman to you
That you begging loving
It's giving up yourself
And I feel sorry for you, I feel sorry for you
I don't mind sharing
If you don't bother me
I won't bother you
From his woman to you
I don't know what you're gonna, gonna do
But he is giving to me
What he is getting from you
Woman to woman
That's the truth
From his woman to you
Seems like you're the fool
I'm his only woman
And I love him
And I ain't about to give him up
I'm his only woman, woman to woman
I just wanna let you know
That I ain't gonna never, never let him go
Woman to woman, I'm his only woman

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
Composer(s): Mike Rutherford - Peter Gabriel - Phil Collins - Steve Hackett - Tony Banks
Performer(s): Genesis
and multiple other artists
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
Early morning Manhattan
Ocean winds blow on the land
The Movie-Palace is now undone
The all-night watchmen have had their fun
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show
It's the same old ending-time to go
Get out!
It seems they cannot leave their dream
There's something moving in the sidewalk steam
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
Nightime's flyers feel their pains
Drugstore takes down the chains
Metal motion comes in bursts
But the gas station can quench that thirst
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'
And out on the subway
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spraygun hid
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
The lamb seems right out of place
Yet the Broadway street sceng finds a focus in its face
Somehow it's lying there
Brings a stillness to the air
Though man-made light, at night is very bright
There's no whitewash victim
As the neons dim, to the coat of white
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Wipes his gun-he's forgotten what he did
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
Suzanne tired her work all done
Thinks money-honey-be on-neon
Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn
Wonder women draw your blind!
Don't look at me! I'm not your kind
I'm Rael!
Something inside me has just begun
Lord knows what I have done
And the lamb lies down on Broadway
On Broadway
They say the lights are always bright on Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air

Changement De Main, Changement De Vilain
Changement De Main, Changement De Vilain
Composer(s): J.P. "Hector" Drand
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
J'peux pas supporter le jour
J'aime la nuit qui tache
Au rouge sang et contours
Des ombres des Apaches
Quand l'état d'urgence
Me pousse de ma tanière
Ceux de la finance
Peuvent avoir quelques misères
J'peux pas dormir
J'peux pas dormir
Quand j'ferme les yeux
C'est encore pire
Déjà
L'ombre glisse sur l'acier
De mon automatique
Déjà
Je descends les escaliers
Vers le marché du vice
J'ai braqué au carrefour
Une limousine de rêve
Surchargée comme un poids lourd
En direction Genève
Kilos d'or en barres
Planqués dans les portières
Dix millions de dollars
Sous le siège arrière
Valeurs volées
Livreurs envolés
Valises enlevées
Où est le voleur?
Déjà
L'infarctus vient de frôler
Quelques costards, cravates
Déjà
Ont raccroché le combiné
Mais y a pas feu au lac
Changement de main, changement de vilain
Les passeurs c'est pas sûr
Pas franc comme l'or dur
La business-class se casse
Sans laisser de trace
La jet-society lasse
Tombe dans la mélasse
Les passeurs c'est pas sûr
Pas franc comme l'or dur
Jamais
Tu r'verras ton blé
Jamais
Faut l'oublier

From Here To Shanghai
From Here To Shanghai
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
I've often wandered down to dreamy Chinatown
The home of Chingaling
It's fine! I must declare
But now I'm going where I can see the real, real thing
I'll have them teaching me to speak their language, gee!
When I can talk Chinese, I'll come home on the run
Then have a barr'll of fun
Calling people what I please
I'll soon be there
In a bamboo chair
For I've got my fare, from here to Shanghai
Just picture me
Sipping Oolong, tea
Served by a Chinaman, who speaks away up high
("Hock-a-my, Hock-a-my")
I'll eat the way they do, with a pair of wooden sticks
And I'll have Ching Ling Foo
Doing all his magic tricks
I'll get my mail from a pale pigtail
For I mean to sail
From here to Shanghai

The Lady With The Big Umbrella
The Lady With The Big Umbrella
Composer(s): David Nelson - Danny Goodman
Performer(s): Dean Martin
The lady with the big umbrella
Her name is Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
And her pink and yella umbrella
She isn't much for fancy dancing
But this girl sure loves romancing
She's the lady with the big umbrella
And her name is Rosabella
With her umbrella in her hand
She's never shy and that's the reason why
She has a guy that's why
For love's a thing she really knows, there is no doubt
For what it's all about she has found out
So plan a trip to Venezuela
You must see Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
And a pink and yella umbrella
(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)
(La la la la la la la la...)
With her umbrella in her hand
She's never shy and that's the reason why
She has a guy that's why
For love's a thing she really knows there is no doubt
For what it's all about she has found out
So plan a trip to Venezuela
You must see Rosabella
You'll always see her with a fella
'Cause some say that her umbrella
Is the way she gets a fella
But is it her umbrella
Or Rosabella

From Here To Eternity
From Here To Eternity
Composer(s): Freddie Karger; Robert Wells
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
You vowed your love from here to eternity
A love so true, it never would die
You gave your lips, gave them so willingly
How could I know your kiss meant good-bye?
Now I'm alone, with only a memory
My empty arms will never know why
Though you are gone, this love that you left with me
Will live from here to eternity
Now I'm alone, with only a memory
My empty arms will never know why
Though you are gone, this love that you left with me
This endless desire, will live from here to eternity

The Lady On The Cameo
The Lady On The Cameo
Composer(s): Hoffman - Kent - Kurtz
Performer(s): Sam Browne
Once I stopped at a little shop
And a girl on a lovely cameo
Caught my eye and my heart leaped high
Seemed I heard her say hello
Just one look overtook my heart
I was part of a world I didn’t know
Taken there by the sweet and fair
Lady on the cameo
We were strolling in a garden
When a chansonette
Softly drifted through
She confided as we glided in a minuet
I love you
Moments rare were the moments there
Drifting back to the lovely long ago
Side by side with the dreamy eyed
Lady on the cameo

Change The World
Change The World
Composer(s): Tommy Sims - Gordon Kenney - Wayne Kirkpatrick
First release by: Eric Clapton - 1996
If I can reach the stars
Pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems
But for now I find
It's only in my dreams
And I can change the world
I will be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
And if I could be king
Even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have it no other way
And our love would rule
This kingdom we had made
Till then I'd be a fool
Wishing for the day...
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
I could change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world

From Here On It Got Rough
From Here On It Got Rough
German Title: Von Nun An Ging's Bergab
Composer(s): Hans Hammerschmid;
Hildegard Knef; David Cameron
Performer(s): Hildegard Knef
I came to the world on a cold winter's day
Sneezed three times, it must have been hay
My Father was livid, he wanted a son
I took a look round and said to the Nun
"From here on it gets rough"
At first I found I had little to do
They allowed me to grow, a room with a view
But after awhile, they hit on a plan
It's time to start learning, the trouble began
From here on it got rough
At fifteen I'd a dream which I found very clever
I wanted to act, Mama said, "No, never!"
My Father said, "Out!", I was already gone
And followed the call, 'The show must go on!'
From here on it got rough
My talents got spotted, Producers helped out
And gave me those parts where you stand in the crowd
When the star became ill, I stepped in like a shot
And someone from films signed me up on the spot
From here on it got rough
I played all the good parts and sometimes the bad
And sometimes a figleaf was all that I had
And Hollywood said it would certainly die
If I didn't come soon, so I went, aye-aye-aye
From here on it got rough
But now I was famous, I had made it at last
Went happily back to the scene of my past
I received a big prize, had my name in 'Who's Who'
But after a flop, that name was taboo
From here on it got rough
At first I was hurt, I thought it was wrong
Then somebody heard me singing a song
I told him I couldn't, but he said, "Yes, you can!"
So that's how this latest torment began
A change was overdue......
From here it's tough on you"

The Lady Loves Me
The Lady Loves Me
Composer(s): Sid Tepper - Roy C. Bennett
Performer(s): Elvis Presley & Ann-Margret
EP:
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me, she loves me
The lady loves me and it shows
In spite of the way she turns up her nose
I'm her ideal, her heart's desire
Under that ice she's burning like fire
She'd like to cuddle up to me
She's playing hard to get
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
AM:
The gentleman has savoir-faire
As much as an elephant or a bear
I'd like to take him for a spin
Back to the zoo to visit his kin
He's got about as much appeal as a soggy cigarette
The lady loathes him but he doesn't know it yet
EP: The lady's got a crush on me
AM: The gentleman's crazy obviously
EP: The lady's dying to be kissed
AM: The gentleman needs a psychiatrist
I'd rather kiss a rattlesnake
Or play Russian roulette
EP: The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
EP: She's falling fast she's on the skids
AM: Both of his heads are flipping their lids
EP: Tonight she'll hold me in her arms
AM: I'd rather be holding hydrogen bombs
Will someone tell this Romeo
I'm not his Juliette
EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
EP: She wants me
AM: Like poison ivy
EP: Needs me
AM: Like a hole in the head
EP: Anyone can see she's got it bad
AM: Ha, he's mad!
AM: The gentleman is an egotist
EP: I'm simply aware I'm hard to resist
AM: He's one man I could learn to hate
EP: How's about having dinner at eight
AM: I'd rather dine with Frankenstein
In a moonlight tete-a-tete
EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
EP: Ah yes she loves me
AM: Dig that shrinking violet
EP: Oh she really loves me
AM: Here's one gal you'll never get
EP: She lo-lo-loves me
AM: Would you like to make a bet
EP: I said the lady loves me
AM; The gentleman's all wet

Change The Name
Change The Name
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Michelle Shocked
Well, of course, this actually happened
In the reconstruction days of the South it got to be pretty serious
when the carpet-baggers came down and started running the whole show down here
And things were especially rough up in the state of Arkansas
when it was very seriously proposed to change the name of the state
And this is taken down on the Legislative rolls which can now be found
I think, under the date of July the 23rd, 1867
And this is what the hometown boy had to say
I think first he pulled out his horse-pistol and laid it across his desk so he wouldn't be interrupted
Mr Speaker, god-damn your soul, for more than thirty minutes I've been trying to get your attention
but every time I caught your eye you squirmed like a damn dog with a flea in his ass
I guess you know who I am Sir
My name is Cassius M. Johnson from Jackson County, Arkansas
where a man can't stick his ass out the window and shit without it getting riddled with bullets
Why Sir, I was fourteen years old before I had my first pair of pants and they was of buckskin
But at the age of seventeen Mr Speaker, I had a jock on me the size of a roasting ear and it was the pride of Jackson County
And you propose to change the name of Arkansas
Never, by God Sir, never!
I'm out of order?
How can I be out of order when I can piss clear across the Mississippi River?
Where was Andrew Jackson when the battle of New Orleans was fought?
He was right thar Sir, up to his ass in blood
And you change the name of Arkansas?
Never, when I can defend her
You may shit on the grave of George Washington
Piss on the monument of Thomas Jefferson
You may desecrate the sacred remains of the immortal General Robert E. Lee
You may rape the Goddess of Liberty and wipe your ass on the Stars and Stripes
And your crime, your crime Sir will no more compare to this hellish design
than the glow of a lightning-bug's ass to the glare of the noon days sun
And you propose to change the name of Arkansas
Never, by God Sir, never!
You may compare the lily of the valley to the glorious sunflower
Or the sun-kissed peaks of the highest mountains to the smokin' turd of a dunghill
Or the classic strains of Mozart to the fart of a Mexican burrow
You may compare the puny penis of a Peruvian prince to the ponderous buttocks of the Roman gladiator
But change the name of Arkansas?
Never, by God Sir, never!

From Hank To Hendrix
From Hank To Hendrix
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Neil Young
From Hank to Hendrix
I walked these streets with you
Here I am with this old guitar
Doin' what I do
I always expected
That you should see me through
I never believed in much
But I believed in you
Can we get it together
Can we still stand side by side
Can we make it last
Like a musical ride?
From Marilyn to Madonna
I always loved your smile
Now we're headed for the big divorce
California-style
I found myself singin'
Like a long-lost friend
The same thing that makes you live
Can kill you in the end
Can we get it together
Can we still stand side by side
Can we make it last
Like a musical ride?
Sometime it's distorted
Not clear to you
Sometimes the beauty of love
Just comes ringin' through
New glass in the window
New leaf on the tree
New distance between us
You and me
Can we get it together
Can we still walk side by side
Can we make it last
Like a musical ride?

The Lady Is A Tramp
The Lady Is A Tramp
Composer(s): Richard Rogers - Lorenz Hart
First performance: Mitzi Green - 1937
Covered by multiple other artists
She gets too hungry for dinner at eight
She likes the theatre and never comes late
She never bothers with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
Doesn't like crap games with barons or earls
Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp
She likes the free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, and it's *"ok"*
Hates California, it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp
She gets too hungry to wait for dinner at eight
She loves the theatre but never comes late
She'd never bother with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp
She'll have no crap games with sharpies and frauds
And she won't go to Harlem in Lincolns or Fords
And she won't dish the dirt with the rest of the broads
That's why the lady is a tramp
She'd love the free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but it's *"ok"*
Hates California, it's so cold and so damp
That's why the lady
That's why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp

From A Window
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): Billy J. Kramer;
and various other artists
Late yesterday night
I saw a light shine from a window
And as I looked again
Your face came into sight
I couldn't walk on
Until you'd gone from your window
I had to make you mine
I knew you were the one
Oh, I would be so glad
Just to have a love like that
Oh, I would be so true
And I'd live my life for you
So meet me tonight
Just where the light shines from a window
And as I take your hand
Say that you'll be mine tonight
Oh, I would be so glad
Just to have a love like that
Oh, I would be true
And I'd give my life for you
So meet me tonight
Just where the light shines from a window
And as I take your hand
Say that you'll be mine tonight

Lady Came From Baltimore
Lady Came From Baltimore ((aka Sussy Moore (Lollipops) - 1967))
Composer(s): Tim Hardin
First recording/First release by: Bobby Darin - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Lady came from Baltimore
All she wore was lace
She didn't know that I was poor
She never saw my place
I was there to steal her money
Take her rings and run
Then I fell in love with the lady
Got away with none
The lady's name was Susan Moore
Her daddy read the law
She didn't know that I was poor
And lived outside the law
Her daddy said, I was a thief
And didn't marry her for love
I was Susan's true belief
Married her for love
I was there to steal her money
To take her rings and run
Then I fell in love with the lady
Got away with none
The house she lived in had a wall
To keep the robbers out
She'd never stop to think at all
If that's what I'm about
I was there to steal her money
Take her rings and run
Then I fell in love with the lady
Got away with none
