"Everything Must Change"

"Everything Must Change"



Everything must change
nothing stays the same
everyone must change
no one stays the same
the young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
cause that's the way of time
nothing and no one goes unchanged
there are not many things in life
you can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and hummingbirds do fly
winter turns to spring
a wounded heart will heal
but never much too soon
yes
everything must change
the young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
cause that's the way of time
nothing and no one goes unchanged
there are not many things in life
you can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and butterflies do fly
rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
and music
and music
makes me cry

"Faure: Apres Un Reve"

"Faure: Apres Un Reve"



Dans un sommeil que charmait ton image
Je revais le bonheur, ardent message;
Tes yeux etaient plus doux, ta voix pure et sonore
Tu rayonnais comme un ciel eclaire par l'aurore;
Tu m'appelais, et je quittais la terre
Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumiere;
Les cieux pour nous entr'ouvraient leurs nues;
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entrevues...
Helas, helas, triste reveil des songes !
Je t'apelle, o nuit, rends-moi tes mensonges;
Reviens, reviens radieuse
Reviens, o nuit mysterieuse

"Finale: With One More Look At You / Watch Closely Now"
(duet with Kris Kristofferson)

"Finale: With One More Look At You / Watch Closely Now"
(duet with Kris Kristofferson)



With one more look at you
I could learn to tame the clouds and let the sun shine through
Leave a troubled past and I might start anew
I'll solve the mysteries if you're the prize
Refresh these tired eyes
With one more look or you I might overcome the anger
That I've learned to know
Find a peace of mind I lost so long ago
Your gentle touch has made me strong again
And I belong again
For when you look or me,
I'm everything and more that I had dreamed I'd be
My spirit feels a promise
I won't be alone
We'll love and live more, love and live forever
With one more look at you
I'd learn to change the stars
And change our fortunes too
I'd have the constellations point your portrait too
So all the world might share this wondrous sight
The world could end each night
With one more look at you
With one more look at you
I want one more look at you
Are you watching me now?
Watch closely now
Your eyes ore like fingers
Touching my body
Arousing me so
I'm riding the passion arising inside me
How high can I go?
You're comin' with me: I'm gonna show you how
And when it's scary, I won't look down
Are you watching me now?
Watch closely now
I see the hunger arise in your eyes
And it's urging me on
Higher and harder and it's faster and farther
Than I've ever gone
Your pleasure is part of the secret
Of flight that I found
When I feel like on eagle
My soul has no place on the ground
Born out of madness
I'll double the danger with no net at all,
If you don't look away I'm secure
In the fact that you won't let me fall
Watch closely now
Are you watching me now
I'm the master magician
Who'll help you escape
From the lies you've been hold
When they're breaking your back
Bring the last straw to me
I turn straw into gold
I break chains made of boredom
That others have lived with for years
I leave good news on doorsteps
And laughs where there used to be tears
I'm gonna need you later
When you're not around
But I can take it
I won't look down
Watch closely now
Are you watching me now
Watch me now
Are you watching me now
Are you watching me now

You're demented.

Find yourself a man--
[Mrs. Brice:]
That's just what I need.

You'll see what a difference it makes ev'ry day.
[Mrs. Brice:]
Send me a letter,
You'll write me a resume
[Mrs. Strakosh:]
Just take me and Dave--
[Mrs. Brice:]
Romeo and Juliet--
[Eddie:]
Dave is still her slave.
[Mrs. Brice:]
Send the slave my regards!
[Eddie and Mrs. Strakosh:]
Open your heart and from out of the skies
A prince on a horse will materialize.

Boy, is some lucky prince
Gonna get a surprise!

Hear a voice talk back.
[Mrs. Brice:]
I hear voices now.
[Mrs. Strakosh:]
Money you don't lack--

Are rules to obey,
Not toy with your morals
And lead you astray.

Please, darling, let the man do things his way.
Mrs. Strakosh and [Eddie:]
Find a man--
[Mrs. Brice:]
I'm a grandmother!
[Mrs. Strakosh:]
Find a man--
[Mrs. Brice:]
You got somebody in mind?
[All:]
Find yourself
A man.

"Fine And Dandy"

"Fine And Dandy"



Please forgive this platitude
But I like your attitude
You are just the kind I've had in mind,
Never could find
Honey, I'm so keen on you
I could come to lean on you
On a random bay
Give you your way
Do what you say
Gee, it's all fine and dandy
Sugar candy,
When I've got you
Then I only see the sunny side
Even trouble has its funny side
When you're gone, my sugar candy
I get so lonesome, I get so blue
But when you're handy
It's fine and dandy
But when you're gone
What can I do?

"Folk Monologue / Value"

"Folk Monologue / Value"


Can I get my glass of tea? Mmm, nothing like it!
At this time I would like very much to do a Folksong. Since Folksongs,
I think are still popular today. Uhm, this one is in Latvian and it's
from Latvia. And it's about this Tahitian girl who uhm, had this lover.
And then one day this lover decides that he doesn't like her anymore
and likes her sister better. So she decided that the only thing to do
naturally was to kill herself, see. So one day, oh, was very nice out
about 75 degrees, and she was taking this walk down to the river to
drown when she, she tripped over this rock see. And uhm, oh it was
awful I mean, she broke her glasses, she scrapped her knees. And uhm,
just at this minute the lover and the sister happen to come by in a
taxicab. So, see they saw her on the floor and she, having an
astigmatism in her left eye, she thought that it was a wild bore. So,
she figured oh boy I'd better get down to the river fast to drown so
she runs down there and what do you know the river was frozen. So I
mean she just stood there you know and she went tchhh, like that. Tch,
and uhm, because, I mean, she couldn't do it that day. See, it was a
small town they only had one river, so. Anyway than she figured, oh
it's getting late, better get home cause her mamma would be worried
and would kill her if she was late for supper you know. So, I mean,
she gets up and she starts walking around home and she bumps in to
this guy, and what do you know, he turns out to be an optometrist.
And just happens to happen to have her "suscription". So, anyway, uh?
Oh, I'm sorry "suBscription".So anyway, I mean, she's I don't want
you to think that this is one of those Hollywood-like stories: She
gets the glasses and sees happily ever after. I mean, this is, you
know, no like that. I mean she had to pay for the glasses just like
you and me, she ... well, oh well, I mean, I don't want you to think
that I'm lying but she did get about a dollar fifty off, dollar
sixty-five? So anyway, uhm... this guy (Oh) turned out to be very
nice and he even told her where she could find another river.
So, I'll tell you the truth, this girl was a real creep. I mean,
you know who would wanna sing a song about her? I mean, her sister
was really much nicer. And uhm, I mean, I, I think she came from
a better family.

[Singing]
Call me a boob
Call me a schlemiel
Call me a brain with a missing wheel
Call me what you will
But nonetheless I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
It's not because he has a car
Arnie Fleisher has a car
And a car is just a car
But if Harold didn't have a car too his name
I guess I'd love him just the same
Call me what you will
But nonetheless I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
And it's not because he has a wealthy family
Arnie Fleischer has a wealthy family
But money isn't everything
And if Harold didn't have a car too his name
I know I'd love him just the same
But sometimes I ask myself why than
Do I than love Harold Mingert
Harold isn't handsome or clever or smart
And I don't find romance and a dance in his heart
The only answers I can think about
Harold Mingert's money and Harold Mingert's car
Call me what you will
But non the less I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
Also Arnie Fleisher!

"Four Little Angels Of Peace"

"Four Little Angels Of Peace"



Four little angels of peace are we
Loving our neighbors so peacefully
There's really no harm if we do not disarm
For we always in close harmony
Four little angels of peace are we
There is one thing on which we agree
With fall or with friend
We will fight to the end
Just for peace, peace, peace...
Though we butchered the boss
And I've own made the choice
And slaughter the Irish no end
Though I'm injured and poor
Slaying hoard upon hoard
We're but playing the part of a friend
Yes, our arms we ain't twist
But we'll be elected for peace
Except in the case of the crook
We conquered both spears
Now we're up to our ears
Just trying to keep what we took
Three little angels of peace are we
Living together so blissfully
Oh, we never fight unless
We're on the right
But we're always in the right, you see?
Three little angels of peace are we
There is one thing on which we agree
Until we are wrecks
We'll break each other's necks
Just for peace, peace, peace...
In Japan we've the right
In a generous night
But the Emperor knows peace is finer
It isn't our fault it's a case of absurd
We're picked down and buried by China
Oh, how we're deplored
I glad did it for the world
We're a nation of poets and thinkers
Also, though we bound without pity
And lay west to his city
It's because all the Chinese are stinkers
Two little angels of peace are we
Living together in amity
We'll sign any pack saying we won't attack
But it's just a mere formality
Two little angels of peace are we
There is one thing on which we agree
We try to keep calm
When we gas, we bump
Just for peace, peace, peace...
Now I know that our war
Is a thing to have horror
And that peaceful fill out
When we hope we have
With our love from the start
I atrocious did all my part
To civilize nearly the hope we have
Though you call me sadistic
Imperialistic
My armies required a quarry
And though we may slave
What's a splendid day today
After all that we'll say that we're sorry
Though I fall for the urge
Of a nice bloody purge
And living my way I was carrying on
Though I clean up my Schmutz
Would I hear Nazi putz
It is all for the sake of the Aryan
My ambitions are small
I want nothing at all
My plans wouldn't be any littler
Now that Austria's Nazi
It will be hazy-gazy
To put the whole world under Hitler
Four little angels of peace are we
Drinking with older of saintity
Though we slaughter the meek
We confirm every week
And we talk it over peacefully
Four little angels of peace are we
There is one thing on which we agree
We'll shout and we'll shell
We'll get each other's hell
Just for peace, peace, peace...

"Free Again"

"Free Again"



Back to being free again
Back to being me again
With all my precious freedom, my precious, precious freedom
On my own
Back to being on my own
Back to live the life I'd known
Before I ever knew him, before I ever knew him
Free again, independent me , free again
Time to call up all the crowd
Raise the roof and shout out loud
Time to have a party, a party
Lucky me, take a look at lucky, lucky me
Take a look and you can see
How much I love my freedom, my precious, precious freedom
Simple me, complicated, simple me
Back to where I used to be before I ever knew him
Before I ever knew him...
Free again, lucky, lucky me
Free again
Back in circulation, now,
Time for celebration, now
Time to have a party, a party...
Free again, independent me free again
Time to call up all the crowd
Raise the roof and shout out loud
Time to have a party!
Lucky me, take a look at lucky, lucky me
Back to where I used to be! Back to where I used to be !
Free again... Free again...
Free...

"Free The People"

"Free The People"



Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
I saw the lives from the streets
As I passed by the other day
I was scared
My knees were weak
I forgot what I had came to say
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil
He's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
Saw a man walk on water
And everybody looking on
I didn't know
I was his daughter
Till both of us
Had come and gone
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil
He's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
If you see me in the alley
Looking like I don't belong
You can put me in your deepest valley
I'll still be singing the same old song
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
I said free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me

"Gentle Rain"

"Gentle Rain"



We both are lost
And alone in the world
Walk with me
In the gentle rain
Don't be afraid, I've a hand
For your hand and I
Will be your love for a while

I feel your tears as they fall
On my cheek
They are warm like gentle rain
Come little one you have me in the
World and our love will be sweet
Very sweet

Our love will
Be sweet very sad
Very sweet like gentle rain
Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain
