Come What May (Patti Page)
Come What May
Composer(s): Vaughn Horton
Performer(s): Patti Page
A gypsy with a crystal ball to gaze in
Can look into the future, so they say
But I am so afraid of fortune tellers
To know the truth might cast my world away
Now, just suppose I called upon a gypsy
To find you're gonna break my heart some day
So, Darlin', I'm confessin', not knowin' is a blessin'
So you can keep me guessin', come what may
A gypsy with a crystal ball to gaze in
Can look into the future, so they say
But I am so afraid of fortune tellers
To know the truth might cast my world away
Now, just suppose I called upon a gypsy
To find you're gonna break my heart some day
So, Darlin', I'm confessin', not knowin' is a blessin'
So you can keep me guessin', come what may
(Darling, come what may)

Come What May (Air Supply)
Come What May
Composer(s): Tom Snow; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Air Supply
When she looks at me
I know the girl sees things
Nobody else can see
All of the secret fears inside
All of the craziness I hide
She looks into my soul
And reads me like nobody can
And she doesn't judge the man
She just takes me as I am
Come what may, she believes
And that faith is something
I've never known before
Come what may, she loves me
And that love has helped me open a door
Making me love myself a little more
When I turn away
She knows those are the times
There's nothing left to say
Nothing that anyone can do
And so she lets me live it through
And when I'm in my darkest hours of uncertainty
She just simply lets me be
And goes right on loving me
Come what may, she believes
And that faith is something
I've never known before
Come what may, she loves me
And that love has helped me open a door
Making me love myself a little more
And when it seems my dreams
Have all slipped through my fingers
When they just can't be found
I turn around and there they are
Shining in her eyes
Come what may, she believes
And that faith is something
I've never known before
Come what may, she loves me
And that love has helped me open a door
Making me love myself a little more

Jack Douglas; Steven Tyler
Performer(s): Aerosmith; Puny Human
It was a take it or leave it kinda Saturday night
I wish I could love you till the cows come home, make it right
If it's a make believe I say it ain't, tell ya then
Cause if it's a dream I'm in please wake me up and start it again
Ooo, close your eyes and what do you see
Ooo, look over how you could do with your only belief
She was a real tight manner
Lies in over navver
Hard core biloozy
Late nine t'fiver
Her second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat
Said it was in and out and up and down the urchin moon
Baby a certain situation on a sea I'm who
Wasn't a ring around the roses pull a daisy chain
Not with your head could tell me you ain't from there and back again
Ooh close your eyes and what do you see
Ooh another but how what they did with your only belief in me
She was a real tight manner
Lies in over navver
Hard core biloozy
Late nine t'fiver
Her second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat
Give a good one, I want to be or not to be tonight
Why should I hold her down in bed when you should ride me right?
Why should you give it all you got, now mid's a make amends
Boy you'll never mind your marker and drive the bends
Ooh close your eyes and what do you see
Ooh another but look what they do with your only belief in me
She was a real tight manner
Lies in over navver
Hard core biloozy
Late nine to fiver
Her second hand clothes
Smilin' like a Cheshire Cat
A real time manner
Lies in off a laugher
Hard core floozy
Late nine driver
Smilin' like a Cheshire Cat

Come Vorrei
Come Vorrei
Composer(s): Dario Farina; Christiano Minellono
Performer(s): Ricchi E Poveri
Ci sono giorni in
cui non dormo e
penso a te
sto chiuso in casa
col silenzio
per amico
mentre la neve
dietro ai vetri
scende giù
e aspetto qui
vicino al fuoco
in quest'inverno
c'è qualcosa
che non va
non è natale da una
volta nella vita
eppure è stato
solamente un anno fa
speriamo che
non sia finita
come vorrei come
vorrei amore mio
come vorrei che tu
mi amassi a modo mio
che questa sera
troppo triste
troppo uguale
non fosse più
senza di te
come vorrei come
vorrei amore mio
come vorrei che
questo amore
che va via
non si sciogliesse
come fa la neve al
sole senza parole
dovrei capirti
quando vedo
che vai via
e non amarti quando
non vuoi farti amare
senza cadere in una
nuova gelosia
che solo tu
mi fai provare
come vorrei come
vorrei amore mio
come vorrei che tu
mi amassi a modo mio
che questa sera
troppo triste
troppo uguale
non fosse più
senza di te
come vorrei come
vorrei amore mio
come vorrei che
questo amore
che va via
non si sciogliesse
come fa la neve al
sole senza parole
e questa volta
un'altra donna
non verrà
a cancellare la
tua impronta
sul cuscino
anche alla luna
glie l'ho chiesto e
non ci sta
non vuole più
starmi vicino

Téléphone de la cabine
J'te présenterai ma frangine cocaïne
Viens becqueter dans ma cuisine
Tu goûteras à ma copine protéine
Si tu swing dans le timing
T'auras droit aux multivitamines
New York, New York, New York...
Si tu es dans la détresse
J'te présenterai une gonzesse qui caresse
Qui t'fait cracher tes dollars
A peu près comme un tubard ses kleenex
Si t'es pas dans le tempo
Elle t'éponge, et puis ciao, ça presse
New York, New York, New York...
Si t'es venu pour la frime
J'te prêterai ma limousine avec piscine
Cheminée, bar et mousseline
Avec un bas de soie noir d'Marilyn
Le dentier du président
Le Watergate du précédent, en sourdine
New York, New York, New York...
Si tu veux du sentiment
On n'en a plus pour l'instant dans le stock
On peut t'vendre quelques missiles
Vietnamiens avec leurs cibles d'un seul bloc
Tu ne veux pas t'emmerder
Même tout seul, dans la cité du Rock
New York, New York, New York...
Téléphone de la cabine
J'te présenterai ma frangine cocaïne
Viens becqueter dans ma cuisine
Tu goûteras à ma copine protéine
Si tu swing dans le timing
T'auras le droit aux multivitamines

J'te téléphone de la détresse
Il n'y avait plus de gonzesse dans le stock
Hamburger dans la cabine
J'peux pas m'payer la frangine cocaïne
On m'a jeté d'la limousine
J'ai pas droit aux multivitamines
New York, New York, New York...

The Tuck Shop
The Tuck Shop
Composer(s): Harry Hemsley
Performer(s): Harry Hemsley
There are draper shops, and dairies
There are chemists, one or two
There are butcher shops, and fish shops
And green grocers quite new
But of all the shops there in the town
Although it is very small
The nicest shop is the old tuck shop
And I like it best of all
It's quite jolly in the grocers
'Cept when they're selling cheese
And the florists sell sweet flowers
Red roses, and sweet peas
I like the scent of roses
And the scent of wild woodbine
But the nicest scent is the old tuck shop
And I wish that shop were mine
We get castor oil from chemists
The oil shop, paraffin
The toy shop, trains and trumpets
But they're mostly made of tin
I often dream of the tuck shop
And I know just what I'd do
If I were alone in the old tuck shop
Then my dreams would all come true

Come Up The Years
Come Up The Years
Composer(s): Marty Balin; Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
I oughta get goin'
I shouldn't stay here and love you
More than I do
'Cause you're so much younger than I am
Come up the years
Come up the years
And love me, love me, love me
A younger girl keeps hangin' around
One of the loveliest I've ever found
Blowin' my mind, stealin' my heart
Somebody help me 'fore I fall apart
I oughta get goin'
I shouldn't stay here and love you
More than I do
'Cause you're so much younger than I am
Come up the years
Come up the years
And love me, love me, love me
The things she's doin' keep turnin' me on
And I've been happy to go right along
I know it's time that I said good-bye
I know I can't leave no matter how hard I try
I oughta get goin'
I shouldn't stay here and love you
More than I do
'Cause you're so much younger than I am
Come up the years
Come up the years
And love me, love me, love me.......

Rock Brigade
Rock Brigade
Composer(s): Steve Clark; Joe Elliott; Rick Savage
Performer(s): Def Leppard;
Bang Tango; Tracii Guns; Joe Lesté
Well, in the middle of the night
and the early morning light
You can hear them a million miles away
They'll be bangin' on their drums bangin' on your door
Waving their flags telling you to score
Watch out for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Oh no, it's the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Look out for the rock brigade
Leading you away, away
So when they hit your town you'd better get down
I'm telling no lies to you mister
Cause they live for rock'n'roll they'll try to steal your soul
Might even try to steal your sister
Watch out for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Oh no it's the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Look out for the rock brigade
Leading you away, away, away
So in the middle of the night or the early morning light
If you hear them comin' your way
Well you'd better watch your step don't step out of line
Cause here they come one more time
Watch out for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Oh no it's the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Look out for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
You better watch for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
I say watch out for the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Keep your eyes on the rock brigade (rock brigade)
Don't let your eyes off the rock brigade (rock brigade)
They'll be leading you away, away, away

The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
The kind that keeps hanging around
It always comes on the double
And trouble will soon get you down
Everything I ever plan always turned out wrong
If good luck ever came my way it was on a day when I was gone
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
It’s followed me all my life
My dreams all fade just like bubbles
I’ve never known nothing but strife
I was stranded on an isle ten thousand miles from home
A rescue ship would pass and think I wanted to be there alone
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
Because fate has been so mean to me
It always comes on the double
From trouble I’ll never be free
If it was raining dollar bills and people were in line
Although I was out there first I bet I wouldn’t get a dime
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down

Come Up And See Me Sometime
Come Up And See Me Sometime
Performer(s): Elsie Carlisle
Here am I, I’m laying all my cards upon the table
I’ll be on the level just as far as I am able
Open up the goods and I will let you see the label
I’m strictly on the up and up
I’ve got a lot, a lot of what I’ve got
And what I’ve got’s all mine
I could spare a little share of what I’ve got, for you
Come up and see me sometime
You’ll get a break, a lot o’ give and take
I’ve got a brand new line
Maybe you would like me to explain it all to you
Come up and see me sometime
Come up tonight
I think the papers say the moon will be bright
They should’ve had it in the columns and all
Letters, that’s all
That you’ll be falling for me
‘Cause I am free and you appeal to me
How could it be a crime?
If you don’t have my number
Well, my number’s in the book
Come up and see me sometime
I’ve got a lot, a lot of what I’ve got
And what I’ve got’s all mine
I could spare a little share of what I’ve got, for you
Come up and see me sometime
You’ll get a break, a lot o’ give and take
I’ve got a brand new line
Maybe you would like me to explain it all to you
Come up and see me sometime
Come up tonight
I think the papers say the moon will be bright
They should’ve had it in the columns and all
Letters, that’s all
That you’ll be falling for me
‘Cause I am free and you appeal to me
How could it be a crime?
If you don’t have my number
Well, my number’s in the book
Come up and see me sometime
Come up and see me sometime

Trolley Song
Trolley Song
Composer(s): Ralph Blane - Hugh Martin
First performance by: Judy Garland - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists
With her high starched collar and her high topped shoes
And her hair piled high upon her head
She went to find a jolly hour on the trolley
And she found my heart instead
With my light brown derby and my bright green tie
I was quite the lonesomest of men
I started to yen so I counted to ten
Then I counted to ten again
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
Ding, ding, ding went the bell
Zing, zing, zing went my heart strings
For the moment I saw her I fell
Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Thump, thump, thump went the brake
Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings
When she smiled I could feel the car shake
I tipped my hat, I took a seat
I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
"Say, what's your name?", I lost my breath
She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death
Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As she started to go then I started to know how it feels
When the universe reels
I tipped my hat, I took a seat
I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet
I asked her name, then lost my breath
She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death
Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Pop, pop, pop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings
As she started to leave I took hold of her sleeve with my hand
And as if it were planned
She stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand
With her hand holding mine to the end of the line
End of the line
The end of the line

Come Uno Stupido
Come Uno Stupido
French Title: Me Voilà Seul
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
E sono qui, senza di te
Da un giorno all'altro l'ho aspettato
Per non saper colmare il vuoto
Che avevo aperto tra di noi
Forse era gia', scritto cosi'
Se stanno insieme tuo malgrado
Volevo vivere a mio modo
E' giusto se non ci sei piu'
Come uno stupido sto qui
E guardo queste quattro mura
Come un bambino che ha paura
E piu' che piangere non sa'
Eccomi solo a dire che
La colpa e' mia siamo d'accordo
E' il mio carattere balordo
Che guasta sempre quel che ho
Le donne non capiscono
Bevevo un po', non molto, un poco
E a lei non piaceva
Avevo i miei amici, è vero
Non sono sempre fini i miei amici
Ma mi ci trovavo con loro, e a lei non piaceva
E sono qui, da solo si
E tutto sembra che mi accusi
Basta soltanto che io posi
Lo sguardo attorno e vedo te
La verita', e' tutta qui
Un grande amore non perdona
Quando lo ignori ti abbandona
Se soffri poi peggio per te
Come uno stupido sto qui
Con i miei sogni andati in fumo
Il grande amante il super uomo
Convinto d'esser chissa' chi
Come uno stupido son qui
E con l'inutile speranza
Ti lascio aperta la mia stanza
Ma so che non ritornerai...

The Tricche Tracche
The Tricche Tracche
Composer(s): Tuminello
Performer(s): Dean Martin
(The tricche tracche
The tricche tracche
Antonino he can play the tricche tracche)
Cross the sea in Italy, there's somethin' cookin'
Antonino's all the rage-a, he's-a good lookin'
When he plays his tricche tracche Italiano
All the people start to bop Americano
He's the rhythm man and everybody's idol
At amoré he would surely win-a the title
He gets all the signorini prima classé
And a-just-a because he plays a tricche tracche
(Antonino he can play the mandolino
And he also plays the sweetest violino
On his instrument he plays the roll `n rocky)
E com'è si bello when he plays the tricche tracche
(The tricche tracche)
Everybody gathers round this happy fellah
You should see them when they rock the tarantella
If you wonder why this Antonin' is cocky
He's the only one that has a tricche tracche
Antonino he can play the mandolino
And he also plays the sweetest violino
On his instrument he plays the roll `n rocky
E com'è si bello when he plays the tricche tracche
(The tricche tracche))
He's the reason why there's always sunny weather
Antonino plays the bouncy hits together
Even though they like to crazy roll 'n rocky
He's the only one that plays
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
How they love him when he plays
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
He's the only one that plays the tricche tracche
