Looks like an angel dances like a devil
Jenny ah

Who's that movin' and a groovin' on the dance floor

Jenny
Half a woman
Half a child see her more just drives me wild
Jenny
Jenny
Dressed in jeans and too tight T-shirt
(Jenny)
You better watch out baby

(Jenny)
She knows that she turns 'em on
She don't care she'll just dance on
And on and on
When she hears Rock'n'Roll tearing her heart and soul
Jenny
Jenny
Jenny gotta dance
Give her a Rockin' Beat and she'll be on her feet
Jenny
Jenny Jenny gotta dance just look at her dance
Looks like an angel dances like a devil
Jenny ah ah
See her movin' in and out with her hips now
(Jenny)
Look at the way she can pout with her lips now
(Jenny)
Long black hair and flsahing eyes she can really hypnotise
Dance dance dance
When she hears Rock'n'Roll tearing her heart and soul ...
Dance dance dance

(Thirteen-fourteen-fifteen-sixteen-seventeen-eighteen-nineteen, go!)
Under twenty, over twelve
Somewhere in-between
Hey boys, that's the groovy age
Really great I mean
When you're older, things are rough
Younger, you're too green
But when you're in that groovy age
Oh man, it sure is keen
Not a worry, not a care
Always havin' fun
In a hurry, on the tear
Got t'get some livin' done
Rockin' rollin' with the beat
It's a crazy rage
Under twenty, over twelve
That's the groovy age
Under twenty, over twelve
Somewhere in-between
Hey boy, that's the groovy age
Really great I mean
When you're older, things are rough
Younger, you're too green
But when you're in that groovy age
Oh man, it sure is keen
Not a worry, not a care
Always havin' fun
In a hurry, on the tear
Got t'get some livin' done
Rockin' rollin' with the beat
It's a crazy rage
Under twenty, over twelve
That's the groovy age

En ganska vanlig tjej men

To See You Is To Love You
To See You Is To Love You
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
To see you is to love you
And I see you everywhere
In the sunrise in the moon glow
Any place I look you're there
To see you is to want you
And I see you all the time
On a sidewalk, in a doorway
On a lonely stairs I climb
Someday let me show you
How happy endings start
You'll find how well I know you
'cause to know you at all is to know you by heart
To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight
To see you is to love you
And you're never out of sight
And I love you and I'll see you
In the same old dream tonight

I Don't Love You Anymore
I Don't Love You Anymore
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Charlie Louvin
I don`t love you anymore
not the way I did before
and since you`ve found someone new
I think it`s best
I don`t cry and walk the floor
I don`t love you anymore
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore
for I`ve got no more love to give
you drained my heart of all its love
with every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I held you close to me one time
Kissed your lips and called you mine
But another came and thrilled you more, I guess
I cried as you walked out the door
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less
I don`t love you anymore,
For I`ve got no more love to give
You drained my heart of all its love
With every sweet caress
I keep sayin` o`er and o`er
`I don`t love you anymore`
Trouble is I don`t love you any less

Jennifer Juniper
Composer(s): Donovan Leitch
Performer(s): Donovan;
Patrick Burke; Joel Grey; Jim Horn
Jennifer Juniper lives upon the hill
Jennifer Juniper, sitting very still
Is she sleeping? I don't think so
Is she breathing? Yes, very low
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, rides a dappled mare
Jennifer Juniper, lilacs in her hair
Is she dreaming? Yes, I think so
Is she pretty? Yes, ever so
Whatcha doing, Jennifer, my love?
I'm thinking of what it would be like if she loved me
You know just lately this happy song it came along
And I like to somehow try and tell you
Jennifer Juniper, hair of golden flax
Jennifer Juniper longs for what she lacks
Do you like her? Yes, I do, Sir
Would you love her? Yes, I would, Sir
Whatcha doing Jennifer, my love?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper
Jennifer Juniper vit sur la colline
Jennifer Juniper assise très tranquille
Dort-elle? Je ne crois pas
Respire-t-elle? Oui, mais tout bas
Qu'est-ce que tu fais, Jenny mon amour?
Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper, Jennifer Juniper

The Dicky Bird Hop
The Dicky Bird Hop
Composer(s): Ronald Gourley - Leslie Sarony
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
Oh, the chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"
The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
A cheeky one this morning popped up on the sill and said
"Get out of bed!"
Hopping about, skipping about, flopping about
And nipping about the whole day through
And the funny little things they do
Oh, I know they would amuse you too
Flying a bit, doing a jig, looking for grit
Pecking a twig, their necks all screwed
And I seem to hear them say, "Get out of bed, shift your lazy head
Don't you know that Nippy want's his little piece of bread"
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah-aah-ahh-aah-aah-aah-aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
Aah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah, get out of bed!
Oh, the chirruping of the birdies in the sycamore tree
They're lucky to be so happy and free
I know that the chirruping sounds a little different to me
I hear them saying early ev'ry morn, "Get up! Get up! Get up!"
The chirruping of the birdies on the sycamore tree
It's lovely to see them having a spree
So off I went and threw a piece of bread upon the lawn
The bread was Gone! Gone! Gone! Gone!
The bread was gone!

I Don't Like To Sleep Alone
I Don't Like To Sleep Alone
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Paul Anka
I don't like to sleep alone
Stay with me
Don't go
Talk with me for just a while
So much of you to get to know
Reaching out touching you
Leaving all the worries behind
Loving you
My mouth on yours and yours on mine
Marry me
Let me live with you
Nothing's wrong and love is right
Like a man says in his song
Help me make it through the night
Loneliness can get you down
When you get to thinking no one cares
Lean on me
And I'll lean on you
Together we will see it through
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?
No, I don't like to sleep alone
It's sad to think some folks do
No I don't like to sleep alone
No one does
Do you?

Jennifer Jennings
Jennifer Jennings
First performance by: Louis Neefs - 1969
Londen-Stad lag stil te dromen in de zon
Van zee te dromen in de zon, rondom mij
Waar ik ging, langsheen de zomen van 't gazon
Stonden de bomen in de zon, er zalig bij
En toen kwam jij, Jennifer Jennings
En danste lief als de lente voorbij
Jij kwam, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachten naar mij
Naar mij, alleen naar mij
Jij hebt mij toen meegenomen door de stad
Langsheen de dromen die je had, zacht als zij
En sindsdien keren m'n dromen telkens weer
Naar al die dromen van weleer, van jou en mij
En dan kom jij, Jenniffer Jennings
Zo fris en speels als de liefde zo blij
Want jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je bent precies wat ik droomde voor mij
Ja dan kom jij, Jennifer Jennings
En blauwe ogen die lachen naar mij
Maar jij, Jennifer Jennings
Je danste telkens en telkens voorbij
Voorbij, altijd voorbij
Steeds weer voorbij
Hopeloos voorbij

To Say I Love You
To Say I Love You
Composer(s): Harvey Averne - Raphael Pagan
Performer(s): Ralfi Pagan
To say I love you
It's a beautiful sound
Oh, the heavens must have sent you
And my love has been found
When you're near me
I feel so much joy
But when you're gone
I'm a sad and lonely boy
I think of you
When we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you
Is all that I can do
I think of you when we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love you is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you is all that I can do
To say I love you is all that I can say
But to show you how much I love you
That's something I try to do each and every day
When you're in my arms, my body comes to life
And when we love, oh when we love
It's so nice
You know how much I love you, don't you honey
Without you, life is barely night and day
All work and no play
But that ain't the way
No it isn't
I said no it isn't, little girl
Oh little girl I love you
I love you 'cause you're fine

I Don't Like Mondays
I Don't Like Mondays
Composer(s): Bob Geldof
First release by: The Boomtown Rats - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean
And it types to a waiting world
And Mother feels so shocked
Father's world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen
No it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need oh oh oh oh
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down, down, down
Shoot it all down
And now the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the how's and why's
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die, oh oh oh
And the silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown

I don't like, I don't like
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like, I don't like

White chalk written on red brick
our love told in a heart
It's there, drawn in the playground
love, kiss, hate or adore
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
La la, la la la la la

I used to carry her satchels
she used to walk by my side
But when we got to her doorstep
her dad wouldn't let me inside
One Monday morning
found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinkin'
"Have she done the same?"
La la, la la la la la

Jennie, Jennie
Composer(s): Lars Berghagen
Performer(s): Lars Berghagen
Jag vet att du sitter i kväll
På ditt rum med ett brev i din hand
Du vill blunda och drömma
Men kan inte glömma att allt känns så hopplöst ibland
Du spelar en skiva och minns
Några bilden du har i ett skrin
Jag vet att du gråter kanske aldrig förlåter
Att tiden förändrat melodin
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Världen väntar på ditt svar
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Livet har så mycket kvar att ge dig
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Melodin bestämmer du
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Lev ditt liv och lev det nu
Du vill vända tillbaka i kväll
Till den värld du levt i förut
Men din dagbok i handen
Är som tecken i sanden
Som havet nästan suddat ut
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....

To Morrow
To Morrow
Composer(s): Bob Gibson
Performer(s): Bob Gibson; The Kingson Trio
I started on a journey, about a year ago
To a little town called Morrow I was going from Glasgow
I've never been much of a traveller, so I really didn't know
That Morrow was the hardest place I'd ever try to go!
I went down to the station for my ticket and applied
For tips regarding Morrow not expecting to be guyed (means fooled)
Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow and return
No later than tomorrow, for I haven't time to burn"
Said he to me, "now let me see if I have heard you right
You'd like to go to Morrow and return tomorrow night"
"You should have gone to Morrow yesterday and back today
For the train today to Morrow is a mile upon its way...
"If you had gone to Morrow yesterday now don't you see
You could have gone to Morrow and returned today at three
For the train today to Morrow, if the schedule is right
Today it goes to Morrow and returns tomorrow night
Said I," My friend, it seems to me you're talking through your hat
There is a town called Morrow on the line, now tell me that!"
"There is," said he, "but take from me a quiet little tip
To go from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour trip
"The train today to Morrow leaves today at 8:35
At half-past ten tomorrow is the time it should arrive
So if from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour jump
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back today, you chump?"
"Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow, so can I go today
And get to Morrow by tonight if there is no delay?"
"Well, well", said he to me, "and I've got no more to say
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back again today?"
Said I,"I guess you know it all, but kindly let me say
How can I get to Morrow if I leave this town today?"
Said he,"You cannot get to Morrow anymore today
For the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way!"
I was so disappointed I was mad enough to swear
The train had gone to Morrow and it left me standing there
The man was right in tellin' me that I was a howlin' jay
I could not go to Morrow, so I guess in town I'll stay
