Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show A Couple More Years Lyrics:
I've got a couple more years on you, babe, and that's all.
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall.
And it ain't that I'm wiser, it's only that I've spent,
More time with my back to the wall.
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, babe, that's all.

I've walked a couple more roads than you, babe, that's all.
And I'm tired of runnin' while you're only learnin' to crawl.
And you're headin' somewhere, but I've been to somewhere,
And found it was nowhere at all.
And I've picked up a couple more years on you. babe, that's all.

[Instrumental break.]

Now, saying goodbye girl, don't never come easy at all.
But you've gotta fly 'cause you're hearin' them young eagles call.
And someday when you're older you'll smile at a man strong and tall,
And you'll say I've got a couple more years on you, babe, that's all.

You'll say, I've got a couple more years on you, babe, and that's all.

Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show If not you Lyrics:
Who's gonna water my plants?
Who's gonna patch my pants?
And who's gonna give me the chance to feel brand new?

Who's gonna iron my shirts?
Who's gonna kiss where it hurts?
And who needs a man when he flirts the way I do?

(Who-ooo-ooo) if not you?
(Who-ooo-ooo) if not you?

[Instrumental break featuring steel guitar.]

(Who-ooo-ooo) if not you?
Tell me (who-ooo-ooo) if not you?

Who's gonna wake me on time? (Who?)
Who'll smile and say I look fine?
And who's gonna stay on my mind the whole day through?
Yeah,

Who's gonna see that I'm fed? (Who?)
Who's gonna want me in bed?
But who'll watch T.V. instead because I do?

(Who-ooo-ooo) if not you?
Tell me (who-ooo-ooo) if not you?
[Fade.]

"Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
Floating in the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams,
and a window that looks out on Corcovado oh how lovely!
This is where i want to be here, with you so close to me,
Untill the final flicker of lifes ember.
I who was lost and lonely, believing life was only
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you
The meaning of existence oh, my love."

Samba Italiano - Adoniran Barbosa

"gioconda, pitina mia,
Vai brincar alí no mareí no fundo,
Mas atencione co os tubarone, ouvisto
Capito meu san benedito".

Piove, piove,
Fa tempo que piove qua, gigi,
E io, sempre io,
Sotto la tua finestra
E vuoi senza me sentire
Ridere, ridere, ridere
Di questo infelice qui

Ti ricordi, gioconda,
Di quella sera in Guarujá
Quando il mare ti portava via
E me chiamaste
Aiuto, marcello!
La tua gioconda a paura di quest'onda

In English

Gioconda, my little
Go frolicking there, deep into the sea
But pay attention to the sharks, do you hear
Understood, my Saint Benedict

It rains, it rains
It has rained for a long time here, Gigi
And I, always I
Under your window
And you, without hearing me
Laughs, laughs and laughs
Of this unhappy one here

Do you remember, Gioconda
That afternoon in Guarujá
When the sea took you away
And you called for me:
Help, Marcello!
Your Gioconda is afraid of this wave

:rofl: :rofl:

Genius!

WARSONG

With a downwind blast from his doughy ass,
Like a lance of fire he shot up the mast.
As he mumbled blasphemous epitaphs,
"I am the sailor."
And the captain cried with a mighty heave-ho
"Enemy sighted on the starboard bow.
Load your cannons, let 'em go.
For God is on our side, boys."

In the dust and sand of a foreign land.
With hands afire he buried his friend.
He beat his brow and cursing foul he said:
"I am the soldier"
And the private laughed as he reached the bluff,
His gun barrel smoking, "Enough's enough.
We've done more damage than old Macduff.
And God is full of pride, boys."

He flew through the flak on the first attack,
The bomb bay open on a missiles back.
Here's the payload, he crudely spat,
"I am the airman."
And the General sighed "This is our last stand,
Let every man say 'Amen',
For we'll not see daylight again.
And tonight we'll meet our God, boys."

Well the airman plunged into the pine,
And the sailor drowned in the briny brine,
And the soldier in haste put his foot on a mine.

And it comes to all in time, boys
For on the day they died, boys
God was on the other side, boys

LAMENT FOR BRENDAN BEHAN

Word has come from Dublin City
She's lost her sweet angry voice
Born with a spirit his flesh could not contain
Brendan Behan is dead

No stranger to life
He lived bright enough
No stranger to the glass in his hand
No stranger to the cause
He fought for all his life
Brendan Behan is dead

A hungry feeling
Came over me stealing
While the mice were feeding
In my prison cell
And the auld triangle
Went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

On a fine spring evening
As I lay dreaming
And the lag was weeping
For his gal, Sal
And the auld triangle
Went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

And the wind was sighing
As the day was dying
And the lag still crying
In his prison cell
And the auld triangle
Went jingle bloody jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

In the women's prison
There were seventy women
And I wish it was with them
That I did dwell
And that old auld triangle
Could go jingle bloody jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

Ireland has lost her sweet angry voice
No longer his poems of fine design
Will ring out in Gaelic
Or sound through the Main
Brendan Behan is dead

"I cannot stay
Not even a minute more with you
I'm so sorry, my love, but it can't be
I live in Jaçanã
If I miss the next train,
Departing now at eleven o'clock,
Only tomorrow can I leave.
Furthermore, woman,
There is one more thing:
My mother won't sleep till I arrive
I am her only son
And I have my home to look after
I cannot stay"

You're talking to me from the back of my car
And i can't get nothing right
And then you wonder why stand at the bar
Day and night
Chorus

I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no
I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no

You stand behind me with a watch in your hand
And i can't get nothing done
Well, people tell me you're punctual man
But come on

I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no
I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no

I earn the money and you take it away
When i don't know where you're from
I should be worried but they say
It'll pay for a bomb


I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no
I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no

Baby you know sometimes you get a little weary
But if it ever happens honey
You just come along to me
Because you know

I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no
I've had enough
I can't put up with any more
No no no no no no no

I've had enough
Put a puppet on it.

Sometimes I feel like I can't even sing (say, say, the light)
I'm very scared for this world
I'm very scared for me (say, say, the light)
Eviscerate your memory
Here's a scene
You're in the back seat laying down (say, say, the light)
The windows wrap around
To sound of the treble and the engine (say, say, the light)
All you hear is time stand still in treble
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn't end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The stars are the greatest thing you've ever seen
And they're there for you
For you alone you are the everything

I think about this world a lot and I cry (say, say, the light)
And I've seen the films and the eyes
But I'm in this kitchen (say, say, the light)
Everything is beautiful
And she is so beautiful (say, say, the light)
She is so young and old
I look at her and I see the beauty (say, say, the light)
Of the light of music
The voices talking somewhere in the house
Late spring and you're drifting off to sleep
With your teeth in your mouth
You are here with me
You are here with me
You have been here and you are everything

Sometimes I feel like I can't even sing (say, say, the light)
I'm very scared for this world
I'm very scared for me (say, say, the light)
Eviscerate your memory
Here's a scene
You're in the back seat laying down (say, say, the light)
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine (say, say, the light)
All you hear is time stand still in travel
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn't end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The greatest thing you've ever seen
And they're there for you
For you alone you are the everything
For you alone you are the everything

My life is brilliant, Your life's a joke
You're just pathetic, You're always broke
Your home-made Star Trek uniform really ain't impressing me
You're suffering from delusions of adequacy

You're pitiful, you're pitiful
You're pitiful, it's true
Never had a date that you couldn't inflate
And you smell repulsive too, what a bummer being you!

Well you just can't dance, and forget romance
Everybody you know still calls you farty-pants
But you'll always have a job, well I mean
as long as you can still work that Slurpee machine

You're pitiful, you're pitiful
You're pitiful, it's true
You're half undressed eating chips off your chest
while you're playing Halo 2, no-one's classier than you

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la loser!

You're pitiful, you're pitiful
You're pitiful, it's true
Your dog would much rather play fetch by itself
You still live with your mom and you're forty two!

Guess you'll never grow a clue
Well it just sucks to be you

happy.

I Want That Man


I want a piece of heaven before i die.
I wanna pair of pink high heels that catch the lights up on the ferris wheel, but what i really want i just can't buy.
Here comes the twenty-first century.
It's gonna be much better for a girl like me, cuz i want everything i can, but most of all i want that man.
I want that man.

I wanna move like what's his name.
I'll keep the money, you can have the fame.
Everything that's yours will soon be mine.

Yeah, i wanna be the queen of the usa.
You could send me roses every other day, but what i really want i just can't buy.

Here comes the twenty first century.
It's gonna be much better for a girl like me, cuz i want everything i can, but most of all i want that man.
I want that man.

Hey!

I wanna be kissed from head to toe by that man in the very back row but he won't even look me in the eye.
Ah, i want his love to rain right down on me.
I want him to be king of all my dreams, but what i really want i just can't hide.

Here comes the twenty first century.
It's gonna be much better for a girl like me, cuz i want everything i can, but most of all i want that man.
I want that man.
