Toreador Song


Toreador Song
Composer(s): Georges Bizet
Performer(s): Escamillo
and multiple other artists



Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre
Senors, senors, car avec les soldats
Oui, les toreros peuvent s'entendre
Pour plaisirs, pour plaisirs ils ont les combats!
Le cirque est plein, c'est jour de fête
Le cirque est plein du haut en bas
Les spectateurs, perdant la tete
Les spectateurs s'interpellent a grand fracas!

Apostrophes, cris et tapage
Pousses jusques a la fureur!
Car c'est la fete du courage,
C'est la fete des gens de coeuer!
Allons! en garde! Allons! Allons! ah!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!
Et songe bien, oui, songe en combattant
Qu'un oeil noir te regarde
Et que l'amour t'attend
Toreador, L'amour t'attend!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!
Et songe bien, oui, songe en combattant
Qu'un oeil noir te regarde
Et que l'amour t'attend
Toreador, L'amour t'attend!

Tout d'un coup, on fait silence...
Ah! que se passe-t-il?
Plus de cris, c'est l'instant!
Plus de cris, c'est l'instant!
le taureau s'elance
En bondissant hors du Toril!
Il s'elance! Il entre
Il frappe! un cheval roule
Entrainant un Picador
Ah! bravo! Toro! Hurle la foule!
Le taureau va, il vient
il vient et frappe encore!

En secouant ses banderilles
Plein de fureur, il court!
Le cirque est plein de sang!
On se sauve, on franchit les grilles!
C'et ton tour maintenant! allons!
En garde! allons! allons! Ah!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!
Et songe bien, oui, songe en combattant
Qu'un oeil noir te regarde
Et que l'amour t'attend
Toreador, L'amour t'attend!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!
Et songe bien, oui, songe en combattant
Qu'un oeil noir te regarde
Et que l'amour t'attend
Toreador, L'amour t'attend!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!
Et songe bien, oui, songe en combattant
Qu'un oeil noir te regarde
Et que l'amour t'attend
Toreador, L'amour t'attend!

Toreador, en garde, Toreador, Toreador!

Come Te Non C'è Nessuno


Come Te Non C'è Nessuno
Composer(s): Francesci Migliacci; E. Polito; C. Vassallo
Performer(s): Rita Pavone



Come te non c'è nessuno
tu sei l'unico al mondo
nei tuoi occhi profondi io vedo
tanta tristezza

Come te non c'è nessuno
così timido e solo
se hai paura del mondo rimani
vicino a me

Amore dimmi
cosa mai posso fare per te?
I pensieri dividi con me
Io ti voglio aiutare, amore amor

Come te non c'è nessuno
è per questo che t'amo
ed in punta di piedi entrerò
nei tuoi sogni segreti

Come te non c'è nessuno
nessuno... nessuno...

Robin Qui Boit


Robin Qui Boit
Composer(s): Michel Saillard;
Jean-Claude Cosson; Michel Héron
Performer(s): Pit et Rik



Dans la forêt de Hollywood
Comme un ver de terre
Jean qui s'enterre, le roi Poltron
Part aux champignons (Aux champignons!)
Pour lui tailler un short en fer
C'est de la rigolade
Tout le monde est prêt pour l'embuscade
On n'attend que toi
(On n'attend que toi)
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Dans les bars-tabac, tabac, tabac
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Dégrise-toi!
Que s'pastis?
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Tu as claqué ta paye du mois
Et l'embuscade, elle est pour toi!

Une p'tite dernière... pour la route et ralliez-vous à mon panaché!
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Du Coquin, quina, quina
Robin tu as la gueule de bois!

Derrière ses murs
Le roi Biture a bouclé Mirabelle
Sa ceinture de sobriété
La prive de joie (Prive de joie!)
N'entends-tu pas au fond du bois
Ce corps qui t'appelle?
Prends ton échelle, ta pioche, ta pelle et délivre-la (délivre-la!)

Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Jamais de coca, coca, coca
Jamais de soda, soda, soda
Dégrise-toi!
Que s'pastis?
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Au lieu de l'avoir dans tes bras
La Mirabelle, toi tu la bois!

Flute! Flute! Flute!
Je pars à la champagne
Et je dis pa ça pour me faire mousseux
hé hé hé hé hé

Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Du Coquin, quina, quina
Robin, tu as la gueule de bois

Un chevalier nommé William s'est payé ta poire
Vieillard magnaque, il a saoûlé ta pauvre mémé (Pauvre mémé!)
Pour la venger, il faut te lever
T'arracher du zinc
Arrête un peu la ribouldingue
Et va le taper (Va le taper!)

Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Dans les bars-tabac, tabac, tabac
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Dégrise-toi!
Que s'pastis?
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Tu ne fais plus régner ta loi
La Poire William, toi tu la bois!

J'vous ai apporté du Bourbon... hic!

Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Du Coquin, quina, quina
Robin tu as la gueule de bois!
La faute à qui
La faute à quoi
C'est la faute à Robin qui boit
Robin qui boit, qui boit, qui boit
Du Coquin, quina, quina
Robin tu as la gueule de bois!

The Top


The Top
Composer(s): Robert Smith
Performer(s): The Cure



"I don't care"
If only I could say that
And not feel so sick and scared
"I don't care"
If only I could say that
If only my eyes would close...

"It's Jesus brilliant"
You used to laugh
"Walking these gorgeous blocks...
This top is the place
Where nobody goes
You just imagine
You just imagine it all..."

Every day I lie here
And know that it's true

All I really want is you

Please come back
Please come back
Like all the other ones do

Please come back
All of you

Come Talk To Me


Come Talk To Me
Composer(s): Peter Gabriel
Performer(s): Peter Gabriel; Jacob Moon



The wretched desert takes its form, the jackal proud and tight
In search of you, I feel my way, through the slowest heaving night
Whatever fear invents, I swear it make no sense
I reach out through the border fence
Come down, come talk to me

In the swirling, curling storm of desire unuttered words hold fast
With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes towers built to last
Darkness creeps in like a thief and offers no relief
Why are you shaking like a leaf
Come on, come talk to me

Ah please talk to me
Won't you please talk to me
We can unlock this misery
Come on, come talk to me

I did not come to steal
This all is so unreal
Can't you show me how you feel now
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me, come talk to me

The earthly power sucks shadowed milk from sleepy tears undone
From nippled skin as smooth as silk the bugles blown as one
You lie there with your eyes half closed like there's no one there at all
There's a tension pulling on your face
Come on, come talk to me

Won't you please talk to me
If you'd just talk to me
Unblock this misery
If you'd only talk to me

Don't you ever change your mind
Now your future's so defined
And you act so deaf and blind
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me, come talk to me

I can imagine the moment
Breaking out through the silence
All the things that we both might say
And the heart it will not be denied
'Til we're both on the same damn side
All the barriers blown away

I said please talk to me
Won't you please come talk to me
Just like it used to be
Come on, come talk to me
I did not come to steal
This all is so unreal
Can you show me how you feel now
Come on, come talk to me
Come talk to me, come talk to me

I said please talk to me
If you'd just talk to me
Unblock this misery
If you'd only talk to me

Robin Hood


Robin Hood
Composer(s): Carl Sigman
Performer(s): Dick James;
and various other artists



Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

He called the greatest archers to a tavern on the green
They vowed to help the people of the king
They handled all the troubles on the English country scene
And still found plenty of time to sing

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

He came to Sherwood Forest with a feather in his cap
A fighter never looking for a fight
His bow was always ready, and he kept his arrows sharp
He used them to fight for what was right

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

With Friar Tuck and Little John they had a roguish look
They did the deed the others wouldn't dare.
He captured all the money that the evil sheriff took
And rescued many a lady fair

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

To cheating and corruption, he would never, never yield
And danger was his breakfast ev'ry day
The cobler in the hamlet and the farmer in the field
Were always helping him get away

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

He rode up to the palace and was cheered by ev'ryone
His Lady Marian threw him a rose
The King of England knighted him the Earl Of Huntingdon
And that's the way that the legend goes

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, Robin Hood

The Tip Of My Fingers


The Tip Of My Fingers
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
First recording/First release by: Bill Anderson - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists



(I held you right on the tips of my fingers)
I reached out my arms and I touched you
With soft words I whispered your name
I held you right on the tips of my fingers
Ah, but that was as close as I came

My eyes had a vision of sweet lips
Yielding beneath my command
I had your love on the tips of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands
But I let it slip right through my hands

Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
That it's a long, long way from the tips of my fingers
To the love hidden deep in your heart
To the love hidden deep in your heart

I had your love on the tips of my fingers
But I let you slip right through my hands
But I let you slip right through my hands

Robin Des Bois


Robin Des Bois
Composer(s): François Llenas; Francis Lopez
Performer(s): Georges Guétary; Maurice Chevalier



C'était une fille adorable
On l'appelait Marie-Suzon
Elle avait un cœur charitable
Et des yeux couleur de chansons
Un jour auprès d'un rivière
Elle aperçu un beau garçon
Et lui demanda sans manières
Bel Etranger quel est ton nom?

On m'appelle Robin des Bois
Je m'en vais par les champs et les bois
Et je chante ma joie par dessus les toits

Je vous aime Marie-Suzon
Le printemps nous prête le gazon
Quand on aime il n'est besoin de maison
Bel oiseau qui nous regarde gentiment
Bel oiseau ferme les yeux c'est le moment

Car on m'appelle Robin des Bois
Je m'en vais par les champs et les bois
Et je chante ma joie par dessus les toits

En revenant vers son village
L'esprit joyeux le cœur léger
Marie-Suzon sur son passage
Son amie Jeanne a rencontré
Jeanne aussi était amoureuse
Car elle aimait le beau garçon
Marie-Suzon un peu curieuse
Lui demanda quel est son nom?

On l'appelle Robin des Bois
Il s'en va par les champs et les bois
Et il chante sa joie par dessus les toits

Mais tu pleures Marie-Suzon
Si ton cœur est pris par un garçon
Dis le vite pour qu'on le jette en prison
Bel oiseau je veux savoir quel est le nom
De celui qui fait pleurer Marie-Suzon

On l'appelle Robin des Bois
Il s'en va par les champs et les bois
Il vous aime, mais il n'aime qu'une fois
Mais il n'aime qu'une fois, mais il n'aime qu'une fois...

The Times They Are A-Changin'


The Times They Are A-Changin'
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages:
1965 - Les Temps Changent (Hugues Aufray)
1965 - Er Komen Andere Tijden (Boudewijn de Groot)



Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'

Come senators, Congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'
It'Il soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'

Ooooh...

Lord, dear Lord above
God almighty

I believe that God put sun and moon up in the sky

Do unto others as you would have them do to you

And have a brighter by and by

Lord, dear Lord above

I believe God is now, was then and always will be
With God's blessing we can make it through eternity

Les Temps Changent


Les Temps Changent
((Adapted from: The Times They Are A-Changin' (Bob Dylan) - 1964))
((Dutch Version: Er Komen Andere Tijden (Boudewijn de Groot) - 1965))
Composer(s): Bob Dylan - Hugues Aufray - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Hugues Aufray - 1965



Où que vous soyez, accourez braves gens
L'eau commence à monter, soyez plus clairvoyants
Admettez que, bientôt, vous serez submergés
Et que si vous valez la peine d'être sauvés
Il est temps maintenant d'apprendre à nager
Car le monde et les temps changent

Et vous, les gens de lettres dont la plume est d'or
Ouvrez tout grands vos yeux car il est temps encore
La roue de la fortune est en train de tourner
Et nul ne sait encore où elle va s'arrêter
Les perdants d'hier vont peut-être gagner
Car le monde et les temps changent

Vous, les pères et les mères de tous les pays
Ne critiquez plus car vous n'avez pas compris
Vos enfants ne sont plus sous votre autorité
Sur vos routes anciennes, les pavés sont usés
Marchez sur les nouvelles ou bien restez cachés
Car le monde et les temps changent

Messieurs les députés, écoutez maintenant
N'encombrez plus le hall de propos dissonants
Si vous n'avancez pas, vous serez dépassés
Car les fenêtres craquent et les murs vont tomber
C'est la grande bataille qui va se livrer
Car le monde et les temps changent

Et le sort et les dés maintenant sont jetés
Car le présent bientôt sera déjà passé
Un peu plus chaque jour, l'ordre est bouleversé
Ceux qui attendent encore vont bientôt arriver
Les premiers d'aujourd'hui, demain, seront les derniers
Car le monde et les temps changent

Robert Le Diable


Robert Le Diable
Composer(s): Louis Arragon; Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat & Louis Arragon



Tu portais dans ta voix comme un chant de Nerval
Quand tu parlais du sang jeune homme singulier
Scandant la cruauté de tes vers réguliers
Le rire des bouchers t'escortait dans les Halles
Tu avais en ces jours ces accents de gageure
Que j'entends retentir à travers les années
Poète de vingt ans d'avance assassiné
Et que vengeaient déjà le blasphème et l'injure

Je pense à toi Desnos qui partis de Compiègne
Comme un soir en dormant tu nous en fis récit
Accomplir jusqu'au bout ta propre prophétie
Là-bas où le destin de notre siècle saigne

Debout sous un porche avec un cornet de frites
Te voilà par mauvais temps près de Saint-Merry
Dévisageant le monde avec effronterie
De ton regard pareil à celui d'Amphitrite
Enorme et palpitant d'une pâle buée
Et le sol à ton pied comme au sein nu l'écume
Se couvre de mégots de crachats de légumes
Dans les pas de la pluie et des prostituées

Je pense à toi Desnos qui partis de Compiègne
Comme un soir en dormant tu nous en fis récit
Accomplir jusqu'au bout ta propre prophétie
Là-bas où le destin de notre siècle saigne

Et c'est encore toi sans fin qui te promènes
Berger des longs désirs et des songes brisés
Sous les arbres obscurs dans les Champs-Elysées
Jusqu'à l'épuisement de la nuit ton domaine
O la Gare de l'Est et le premier croissant
Le café noir qu'on prend près du percolateur
Les journaux frais les boulevards pleins de senteur
Les bouches du métro qui captent les passants

Je pense à toi Desnos qui partis de Compiègne
Comme un soir en dormant tu nous en fis récit
Accomplir jusqu'au bout ta propre prophétie
Là-bas où le destin de notre siècle saigne

La ville un peu partout garde de ton passage
Une ombre de couleur à ses frontons salis
Et quand le jour se lève au Sacré-Coeur pâli
Quand sur le Panthéon comme un équarissage
Le crépuscule met ses lambeaux écorchés
Quand le vent hurle aux loups dessous le Pont-au-Change
Quand le soleil au Bois roule avec les oranges
Quand la lune s'assied de clocher en clocher

Je pense à toi Desnos qui partis de Compiègne
Comme un soir en dormant tu nous en fis récit
Accomplir jusqu'au bout ta propre prophétie
Là-bas où le destin de notre siècle saigne

Dolly's Lullaby
Performer(s): Toni Harper



Just close your eyes and dream away
It's time to rest
You've had your day, my sweet
So tiny and sweet

This lullaby I sing to you
May all your dreams
Come smiling through
The angels will see that they do

Tomorrow the sunlight
Will shine on your hair
And all of the heavens
Will sing 'cause you're there

So close your eyes and have no fear
I'll be around
To dry your tears, my sweet
So tiny and sweet

Tomorrow the sunlight
Will shine on your hair
And all of the heavens
Will sing 'cause you're there

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ohh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I'll be around
To dry your tears, my sweet
So tiny and sweet
So tiny and sweet

Io sogno d'esserti vicino
e di baciarti
e poi svanire
in questo sogno irreale
lassù sento gli angeli
che cantano per noi
dolcemente, dolcemente
è un canto fatto di feliccità

Ascolto e ti vedo ancora
più vicina
la musica che sento
è come sinfonia
il coro degli angeli
mi fa sognare ancora
io vorrei, io vorrei
che questo sogno
fosse realtà

Robbin' The Cradle


Robbin' The Cradle
Composer(s): Anthony J. Bellusci
Performer(s): Tony Bellus



A broken heart is why
I sing this song to you
So you and all the world would know
Why I have let you go

They say I'm robbin' the cradle, little darlin'
Because I've fallen in love with you
They say I'm robbin' the cradle, little darlin'
Is it strange for true love to be so young?

Well, everybody says that you've got blue eyes
But your eyes are really brown like mine
Well, everybody says that you're unhappy
But, with me, you really look so fine

They say I'm robbin' the cradle, little darling
Because I've fallen in love with you
They say Im robbin' the cradle, little darlin'
Is it strange for true love to be so young?

Well, they all say that I'm outta line
'Cause I want to make you mine
But what very few people know
That we planned everything just so

They say I'm robbin' the cradle, little darlin'
Because I've fallen in love with you
They say I'm robbin' the cradle, little darlin'
Is it strange for true love to be so young?
Is it strange for true love to be so young?

The Time Will Come


The Time Will Come
Composer(s): M.J. Gunsky - Lester E. Stevens



You've grown weary of me dearie and you're going away
but you'll soon find you'll change your mind, and want me back some day

Every day dear you're away dear you'll be thinking of me
you'll be sighing, may be crying, dear you just wait and see

The time will come, you'll be feeling kind of blue
the time will come when you'll want me close to you
you'll miss my kiss, when the weary day is through
I know you'll miss, all the love I gave you
you won't forget, you'll be writing in everyday
how you regret, that you ever went away
you'll want me only, you'll want me, honey mine
I know the time will come

Come See About Me


Come See About Me
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Edward Holland Jr.
First recording/First release by: The Supremes - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists



I've been crying
'Cause I'm lonely (for you)
Smiles have all turned to tears
But tears won't wash away the fears
That you're never ever gonna return
To ease the fire that within me burns

It keeps me crying baby for you
Keeps me sighin' baby for you
So won't you hurry?
Come on boy, see about me
(Come see about me)
See about you baby

I've given up my friends just for you
My friends are gone
And you have too
No peace shall I find
Until you come back
And be mine
No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you anyway

Keep on crying baby for you
I'm gonna keep sighin' baby for you
So come on hurry
Come on and see about me
(Come see about me)
See about you baby

Sometime's up
Sometime's down
My life's so uncertain
With you not around
From my arms you maybe out of reach
But my heart says you're here to keep

Keeps me crying baby for you
Keep on, keep on crying baby for you
So won't you hurry
Come on boy, see about me (Come see about me)
See about you baby (Come see about me)
You know I'm so lonely (Come see about me)
I love you only (Come see about me)
See about your baby (Come see about me)
Hurry, hurry
