"Autumn Leaves"

"Autumn Leaves"



Et les vents du Nord, les emportant
Dans la nuit blanche de n'oubli
Que moi, je n'ai pas oublie
La chanson que tu me chantais
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When the autumn leaves start to fall...

"Avinu Malkeinu"


[Translation]

Hear our prayer
We have sinned before Thee
Have compassion upon us and upon our children
Help us bring an end to pestilence, war, and famine
Cause all hate and oppression to vanish from the earth
Inscribe us for blessing in the Book Of Life
Let the new year be a good year for us

"Baby Me Baby"

"Baby Me Baby"



Well I'm stacking up skirts and things
Packing up and fixing to go
For some little reason that I can't remember
And this leaving is a-grieving me so
But just one little kiss
Could put all of this leaving behind
Yeah, baby me baby
And maybe I might change my mind
Baby me baby
Everyday
Baby me baby
And make all my blues go away
Baby me baby
Everyday
Baby me baby
And I'll baby you the same way
Sometimes the times are good times
And sometimes the times
Are not quite so good as the good times should be
And that's when leaving starts to enter my mind
But just one word from you
And I'd put all of my suitcases down
Yeah, baby me, baby
And maybe I might stick around
Baby me baby
Everyday
Baby me baby
And make all my blues go away
Baby me baby
Everyday
Oh, Baby me baby
And I'll baby you the same way
Baby me baby
Baby me baby
Baby me baby

"Back To Work"

"Back To Work"


[CHORUS:]
Hey here comes Joe now running down the street, hey Joe!
He must have news the way he moves his feet, hey Joe!
He's coming from the meeting with the boss, hey Joe!
I hope they didn't throw him for a loss, hey Joe!
He must have news about the strike, I wonder what it's like.
Hey Joe! Hey Joe! Hey Joe, don't be so slow!
Tell us, Joe! Spill it, Joe! Joe, what do you know?

[JOE:]
What do I know?
I ain't heard as good news since Lord knows when,
For the strike is over, boys,
Back to work again!

[CHORUS:]
Yeah!

[JOE:]
The fighting's through now,
There's no more fuss
For the strike is over, boys,
Back to work for us!

[CHORUS:]
Yeah!

[JOE:]
We gave a little, and we took a little.
It was quite a fight but things came out all right!
Shout to the rafters, let yourselves go.
For the striking all is done, let's have fun,
The day is won, back to work we go!

[CHORUS:]
Yeah!
Back to work again!
Back to work for us! JOE:
We gave a little, and we took a little. We gave and we took-
It was quite a fight It was quite a fight

[JOE:]
But things came out all right!
Shout to the rafters, let yourselves go.
For the striking all is done,

[JOE and CHORUS:]
Let's have fun,
The day is won, back to work we go!
Back to work, Joe!
Back to work, Joe!
Back to work we go!

"Beautiful"

"Beautiful"



You've gotta get up every morning
Put a smile on your face
And show the world
All the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find,
Yes you will
That you're beautiful as you feel
Waiting at the station
With the work day wind a-blowing
I've got nothing to do
But watch the passers by
Mirrored in their faces
I see frustration growing
And they don't see a-showing
Why do I?
You've gotta get up every morning
Put a smile on your face
And show the world
All the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find,
Yes you will
That you're beautiful as you feel
I have often asked myself
The reason for the sadness
In the world
But tears are just a lullaby
If there's any answer
May be love kind
And the madness may be not
Oh, but we can only try
You've gotta get up every morning
Put a smile on your face
And show the world
All the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find,
Oh, yes, you will
That you're beautiful...
Yes, you're beautiful...
Yeah, beautiful as you feel!

"Before The Parade Passes By"

"Before The Parade Passes By"


[Dolly:]
Before the parade passes by
Before it goes on, and only I'm left
Before the parade passes by
I've gotta get in step while there's still time left
I'm ready to move out in front
Life without life has no reason or rhyme left
With the rest of them
With the best of them
I wanna hold my head up high
I need got a goal again
I need got a drive again
I wanna feel my heart coming alive again
Before the parade passes by...
Before the parade passes by
I've gotta go and taste Saturday's high life
Before the parade passes by
I've gotta get some life back into my life
I'm ready to move out in front
I've had enough of just passing by life
With the rest of them
With the best of them
I can hold my head up high
For I've got a goal again
I've got a drive again
I wanna feel my heart coming alive again
Before the parade passes by

[Interlude]

[All:]
When the parade passes by
Listen and hear that brass harmony growing
When the parade passes by
Pardon me if my old spirit is showing
All of those lights over there
Seem to be telling me where I'm going

[Dolly:]
When the whistles blow
And the cymbals crash
And the sparklers light the sky
I'm gonna raise the roof
I'm gonna carry on
Give me an old trombone
Give me an old baton
Before the parade passes by!

"Being Alive"

"Being Alive"



Someone to hold you too close
Someone to hurt you too deep
Someone to sit in your chair
And ruin your sleep
And make you aware of being alive

Someone to need you too much
Someone to know you too well
Someone to pull you up short
And put you through hell
And give you support for being alive-being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive!

Somebody hold me too close
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you of being alive,
Being alive, being alive!

Someone you have to let in
Someone whose feelings you spare
Someone who, like it or not
Will want you to share a little, a lot of being alive
Make me alive, make me confused
Mock me with praise, let me be used
Vary my days, but alone is alone, not alive!

Somebody crowd me with love
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you to help us survive,
Being alive, being alive, being alive, being alive

"Being At War With Each Other"

"Being At War With Each Other"



Everyone comes from
One father one mother
So why do we complicate
Our lives so much
By being at war with each other
Mmm...maybe I'm crazy
But I don't understand it
Why do we seem to vote
To dig more holes
It's such a waste of a planet
There must be a reason
That I can't see
Maybe somebody else now
Knows better than me
All I know is
Everyone else is
A sister or a brother
So we've got to look around
Again and stop
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other
Oh. . .
Maybe I'm crazy
But I don't
No, I don't understand it
(There must be a reason)
There must be a reason
(There must be a reason)
There must be a reason
That I can't see
Somebody else must be
Better than me
AII I know is
Everyone else is
A sister or brothers
So we've got to look around
Again and stop
Being at war with each other
Being at war with each other...

"Being Good Isn't Good Enough"

"Being Good Isn't Good Enough"



Being good isn't good enough
Being good won't be good enough
When I fly, I must fly extra high
And I'll need special wings so far to go
From so far below

Should I try?
Am I strong enough?
Is there time, have I long enough?
Gotta fly and if I fall
That's the way it's gotta be
There's no other way for me
Being good just won't be good enough
I'll be the best or nothing at all

I'll try, am I strong enough?
Is there time, have I long enough?
Gotta fly and if I fall
That's the way it's gotta be
There's no other way for me
Being good just won't be good enough
I'll be the best or nothing at all
