193. Vertiges de l’amour (Alain Bashung)
J'ai crevé l'oreiller… J’ai du rêver trop fort
Ça m'prend les jours fériés
Quand Gisèle clap' dehors
J'aurais pas du ouvrir… à la rouquine carmélite
La mère sup' m'a vu venir
Dieu avait mis un kilt
Y a du avoir une fuite
Vertige de l'amour
Mes circuits sont niqués
Et y a un truc qui fait masse
L'courant peut plus passer
Non mais t'as vu c'qui passe
J'veux l'feuilleton à la place
Vertige de l'amour
Tu t'chop' des suées à Saïgon
J'm'écris des cartes postales du front
Si ça continue j'vais m'découper
Suivant les pointillés-hé !
Vertige de l'amour
Désir fou que rien ne chasse
Cœur transi reste sourd
Aux cris du marchand d'glaces
Non mais t'as vu c'qui s'passe
J'veux l'feuill'ton à la place
Vertige de l'amour.
Mon légionnaire attend qu'on l'chunte
Et la tranchée vient d'être repeinte, écoute
Si ça continue j'vais m'découper
Suivant les pointillés-hé !
Vertige de l'amour… J'ai du rêver trop fort
Ça m'prend les jours fériés
Quand Gisèle clap' dehors
J'ai crevé l'oreiller… J'ai du rêver trop fort
Ça m'prend les jours fériés
Quand Gisèle clap' dehors
J'ai crevé l'oreiller… J'ai du rêver trop fort.
194. Walk on the wild side (Lou Reed)
Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
Candy came from out on the island,
In the backroom she was everybody's darling,
But she never lost her head
Even when she was giving head
She sayes, hey baby, take a walk on the wild side
Said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
And the colored girls go, doo doo doo…
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City is the place where they said:
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Lookin' for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo
You should have seen him go, go, go
They said, hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side, alright, huh
Jackie is just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
And the colored girls say doo, doo, doo…
195. Waterloo (Abba)
My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny
in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
Waterloo I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo Finally facing my Waterloo
My my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems
my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo Finally facing my Waterloo
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo Finally facing my Waterloo
196. What A Wonderful World (Louis Amstrong)
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people goin' by
I see friends shaking hands, saying "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world
197. While my guitar gently weeps (The Beatles)
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
Solo
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps
198. With a little help from my friends (The Beatles)
What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away?
Does it worry you to be alone?
How do I feel by the end of the day?
Are you sad because you're on your own?
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love
Would you believe in a love at first sight?
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light?
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody?
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody?
I want somebody to love
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

You're everything I hope for
You're everything I need
You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful
To me

200. You can’t always get what you want (The Rolling Stones)
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was footloose man
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
I said to him
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
Instru
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
