Devil Woman
By Cliff Richard

I've had nothing but bad luck
Since the day I saw the cat at my door
So I came into you sweet lady
Answering your mystical call
Crystal ball on the table
Showing the future,the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
And I knew itwas a spell she cast

She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you from behind

Give me the ring on your finger
Let me see the lines on your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
Giving you what you hadn't planned
I drank the potion she offered me
I found myself on the floor
Then I looked into those big green eyes
And I wondered what I'd come there for

She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you from behind

If you're out on a moonlit night
Be careful of them neighbourhood strays
Of a lady with long black hair
Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways
Crystal ball on the table
Showing the future,the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
You'd better get out of there fast

She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you...

Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Blinded by the light
[Originally by Bruce Springsteen]

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night

Madman drummers bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin’ kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin’, sneezin’ and wheezin, the calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night

Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I got what it takes
She said “I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong, play the song with the funky break”
And go-cart Mozart was checkin’ out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside
And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride

But she was...
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light

She got down but she never got tired
She’s gonna make it through the night
She’s gonna make it through the night

(Guitar solo)

But mama, that’s where the fun is
But mama, that’s where the fun is
Mama always told me not to look into the eye’s of the sun
But mama, that’s where the fun is

Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
Says, “Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it’s funny bone, that’s where they expect it least”
And some new-mown chaperone was standin’ in the corner, watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin’ with his frozen zone, reminding him of romance
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night

~ Now Scott with a slingshot finially found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand

~ Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what it takes
~ She said “I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong”

Seth, can you read minds ?

I've been on a concert of Manfred Mann's Earth Band last Sunday here in Leverkusen !

High Hopes
By Pink Floyd

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our troughts strayed constandly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begin

Along the long road and on down the causeway
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The night of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfuried
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Eneumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many time

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever

I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing
by the Hillside Singers

I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow white turtle doves
I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company.

I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land
(I'd like to teach the world to sing)
Like the world to sing today
(In perfect harmony)
A song of peace that echoes on
And never goes away.


Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

@Tsel
Lol... bright song. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I would never have thought of it.
Is this kinda gospel, folk, almost religious turn becouse of the new pope? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

The Clash - Should I stay or should I go

Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I’ll be here ‘til the end of time
So you got to let know
Should I stay or should I go?

Always tease tease tease
Siempre - coqetiando y enganyando
You’re happy when I’m on my knees
Me arrodilla y estas feliz
One day is fine, next is black
Un dias bien el otro negro
So if you want me off your back
Al rededar en tu espalda
Well come on and let me know
Me tienes que desir
Should I Stay or should I go?
Me debo ir o que darme

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An’ if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know

This indecision’s bugging me
Esta undecision me molesta
If you don’t want me, set me free
Si no me quieres, librame
Exactly who’m I’m supposed to be
Diga me que tengo ser
Don’t you know which clothes even fit me?
¨Saves que robas me querda?
Come on and let me know
Me tienes que desir
Should I cool it or should I blow?
¨Me debo ir o quedarme?

Should I stay or should I go now?
¨Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
If I go there will be trouble
Si me voi - va ver peligro
And if I stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go?
¨Yo me frio o lo sophlo?

I was wondering if anyone would say anything. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />

Specially not in Europe. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

Bye bye


Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.

Où t'étais ?

Invité par des pots à une tefê
On s'amusait bien, j'n'ai pas vu l'heure qu'il était.

Ah ouais!

C'est vrai

J'te connais par cœur,
J'aimerais savoir pourquoi tu agis comme un voleur.

Tu t'fais des films,
Je ne voulais pas te réveiller c'est tout.
Arrête avec tes questions.
Dis-moi plutôt à quoi tu joues.

Je joue à la fille qui en a marre de te voir rentrer tard
Tout ça parc'que tu préfère traîner avec tes lascars.

Il est tard chérie.
Ecoute baisse le ton tu fais trop de bruit.
Ce ne sont pas des lascars, ce sont mes amis.

Amis ?
Et pourquoi m'appellent-ils quand tu n'es pas là ?
Sans doute par respect et déférence envers toi.

Les bâtards!

Ah bon! Tu ne le savais pas.
Tes pots ne se gênent pas pour me narrer tes exploits.
Aussitôt le dos tourné, au téléphone ils me draguent.
Ne fais pas l'innocent, tu as surpris le gars en flag.


Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool guy sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.

C'est bon, c'est bon, tu peux prendre toutes tes affaires. [ Quoi ? ]

Ah ouais! Et tu crois qu'j'tai attendu pour le faire.
Toi et ta horde de serpents
Je vous souhaite bien du bon temps.
J'suis parti à présent,
Ce sera l'orgie à plein temps .
Tu souris encore ?
Même pas l'once d'un remord.
Change d'attitude,
Ou je sculpte un nouveau décor.

Allez Bye Bye,
Tu prends tes clics, tes clacs
Et tu te tailles.
Ta mère avait raison [Ma mère],
Laisse-moi donc
Et ma bataille.
Tient parlons d'elle, [Quoi ?]
As-tu trouvé sa muselière ?

Qu'a-t-elle à voir dans cette affaire ?
Ne touches pas à ma mère.

Qui le voudrait ?
C'est vrai, c'est un vrai supplice de la voir.
D'autant plus qu'elle s'invite ici à dîner tous les soirs.

J'n'ai jamais compris
pourquoi tu affiches
Tant de mépris
Envers ma famille
Spécialement ceux qui t'apprécient.

Elle m'apprécie ?
Moi, ou mon porte-monnaie ?
Peut-être les deux qui sait ?
Arrête s'te plaît !

Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool guy sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.

[Non mais hé ! Franchement,
y a quelqu'chose qui va pas là ]

[Ah ! T'as l'chic pour tout gâcher,]
[Arrête, arrête, arrête, non non non]
[C'est vrai qu'j'suis un peu éméché mais bon !
Oh la la la la]
[ Quoi oh la la ?]

Franchement !
Est-ce vraiment une heure pour rentrer chez soi ?
Tu t'inquiètes du bruit,
Occupes-toi de ce qui se passe chez toi.

Chez moi,
Ça allais jusqu'à une certaine prise de tête.
Ce qui me contrarie
C'est d'avoir trouvé la femme parfaite.

Pas d'amis,
Pas de sorties, [Eh eh eh eh eh eh eh]
Pas de fille au lit,
Pas d'envie
Et accessoirement
Pas de sexe aussi. [Quoi ?] [Ah Ah]

Le bonheur !
Mais j'rajoutrais sur la notice,
Il faudrait pouvoir dégonfler après service.

C'est un coup bas.

OK ! Excuse-moi,
Mais je t'en prie,
Prends-moi donc dans tes bras. [C'est trop facile ! ]
Excuse-moi !

Je n'ai pas fini

Arrêtons ! [Non]
On va y passer le reste de la nuit.

Je me suis lassée,
Je suis cassée
J'en ai plus qu'assez.
L'ardoise est chargée,
Fissa, tu ferais bien de l'effacer.

Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es la seule qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool bébé sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.
Tu es le seul qui m'aille, je te le dis sans faille
Reste cool guy sinon j'te dirai Bye Bye.

More French:

Visage - Fade to grey

Devenir gris

One man on a lonely platform
One case sitting by his side
Two eyes staring cold and silent
Show fear as he turns to hide

We fade to Grey

Un homme dans une gare isolée
Une valise a ses cotés
Deux yeux fixes et froids
Montre de la peur lorsqu’il
Se tourne pour se cacher

We Fade to Grey

Sent la pluie comme un été anglais
Entends les notes d’une chanson lointaine
Sortant de derrière un poster
Espérant que la vie ne fut aussi longue

Feel the rain like an English summer
Feel the notes from a distant song
Stepping out from a back shop poster
Wishing life wouldn’t be so dull

We Fade to Grey

Fighter
by Christina Aguilera

After all you put me through
You'd think I'd despise you
But in the end I want to thank you
Because you made me that much stronger

When i, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess i, I couldn't trust
Called your bluff, time is up
'cause I've had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
'cause your greed sold me out of shame, mmhmm

After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wanna know just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you

'cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohhhh, ohh-yeah ah uhhhuh

Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I realized your game
I heard, you're going around
Playing the victim now
But don't, even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'cause you dug your own grave

After all of the fights and the lies
Yes you wanted to harm me but that won't work anymore
Uh, no more, oh no, it's over
'cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now, and never back down
So I wanna say thank you

'cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

How could this man I thought I knew
Turn out to be unjust so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretended not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies, disguise yourself
Through living in dnial
But in the end you'll see
You-won't-stop-me

I am a fighter and i
I ain't goin'; stop
There is no turning back
I've had enough

'cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

'cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
It makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter


EDIT to add lyrics

And now, somethign totally different:

Susan by Leonard Choen

Susan takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half-crazy and thaqt's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges that comes all the way from China
And just when you're ment to tell he that you have no love to give her
She gets you on her wave-lenght and she lets the river answer that you've allways been her lover

And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For you've toched her perfect body with your mind

And Jeasus was a salior when he walked upon the water
And he spend a long time watching from his lonelly wooden tower
And when he knew for sertain only drowning men could seee him
He said all men shall be salior then until the sea shall free them
But he himself was broken long before the sky would open
Forsaken, allmost human, he sank beneath our wisdom like a stone

And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think that you can trust him
For he's totched your perfect body with his mind

Now Susan takes your hand and she leads you to the river
She's wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army countries
And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor
And she shows you where to look among the garbages and the flowers
There are hereos in the sea-bed, there are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever
While Susan holds me mirror

And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's totched your perfect body with your mind

@Tsel
How about this one? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Where everybody knows your name


Making your way in the world today
Takes ev'rything you've got
Taking a break from all your worries sure would help a lot
Wouldn't you like to get away
Sometimes you wanna go:

Where ev'rybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You wanna be where you can see
People are all the same
You wanna be where ev'rybody knows your name

All those nights when you've got no lights
The check is in the mail
And your little angel hung the cat up by its tail
And your third fiancee didn't show
Sometimes you wanna go:

Where ev'rybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You wanna be where you can see
People are all the same
You wanna be where ev'rybody knows your name

Roll out of bed Mr. Coffee's dead
The morning's looking bright
And your shrink ran off to Europe and didn't even write
And your husband wants to be a girl
Sometimes you wanna go:

Where ev'rybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You wanna be where you can see
People are all the same
You wanna be where ev'rybody knows your name
