Living My Life Just For You - 7th Wonder

(Tony Miller; Keith Echol; Alice Sanderson) 1979

I'm living my life just for you 
To give you all that you ask of me 
I'm living my life just for you 
And you're living your life just for me 

Too many years have gone by
Yes, that I've been watching and waiting for the day 
When someone like you would come along
Too many, many, many tears have clouded my eyes 
Till I found that you brought joy to my world 
It seems you saved my life 

And I'll be living my life just for you 
To give you all that you ask of me 
I'm living my life just for you 
And you're living your life just for me 

You're bringing me overdo laughter
Oh yeah 
So many smiles I had locked inside 
And no other love could set free 

(Well darling)
(I'm so glad you feel that way)
(Cause I've been giving love) 
(But now we see the love)
(So glad you're in my life) 
(So please, keep loving me)
I will baby 
And give you all that you ask of me 

I'm living my life just for you 
And you're living your life just for me 
It seems to save my life 
(I've been loving you, you' been loving me)
(I'm so thankful yes) 
You free me from my past and
I keep living my life just for you 
To give you all that you ask of me 
Baby, I'm living my life just for you 
Just want to give you all that you ask of me
Baby I'm living my life just for you 
To give you all that you ask of me 
I'm living my life just for you 
Anything you ask I'm willing to do
Oh I'm living my life just for you 
Anything you ask I'm willing to do
Oh I'm living my life just for you 
Anything you ask I'm willing to do






 

Melô do Tagarela - Miele

(Bernard Edwards; Nile Rodgers; Versão Arnaud Rodrigues; Miele)

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
Saio com a menina
Tá tão caro a gasolina
Levo um tiro na esquina
E te manda já daqui

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
No supermercado a oferta da semana
Tudo a preço de banana
O anuncio é um colosso
Vou comprar alguma coisa
Tô vidrado no almoço
Mil cruzeiros pela carne
Pago um quilo, levo um osso
Levo um carro de dinheiro
Trago as compras no meu bolso

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
A praça é do povo
Que ouve de novo
Na face tão crítica
A frase política
E o MDB? Terminou, é arena
Tem mesmo PTB?
Tem a esquerda de Ipanema
Continua a coisa preta
Tanta sigla, tanta letra
Que o povo esperançoso
Que só quer voto direto
vai vivendo de teimoso
Cotinua analfabeto

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
E sobe outro edíficio
E tome apartamento
Falta grana e sobra gente
Sobra lixo
Falta vento
Ai, ai eu não posso respirar
Meu pulmão virou um tanque de olho diesel invés de ar

Lar doce lar
Mas quem mora no suburbio
Perto do bar toda noite tem disturbio
Já tá todo mundo alto
Se arranca que é um assalto
mas levaram a minha grana e sou eu que vou em cana

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
Lar doce lar
Tão pequeno eu nunca vi
Para o sol entrar em casa um dos dois tem que sair
É moderna a construção o tijolo é tão fininho 
Que eu ouço quando sobe o aluguel do meu vizinho

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
Quando eu lembro os velhos tempos
Que o Brasil tinha o Pelé
Quando a gente tinha time, tinha o gol e tinha olé
Quando fala em João, eu só lembro do Mané
O Mané foi pra saudade e o Pelé pra outra cidade
Foi fazer em Nova Iorque propaganda do café
O café já tá em crise, o cruzeiro nem pensar
Todo dia sobe o dolar, não consigo viajar
Mas, também pensando bem
Eu não troco com ninguém
Minha vida nessa terra
No meu céu que é cor de anil
Como diz o Jorge Ben, cujo lema eu levo em conta
Se o amigo for do contra
Não gostar do meu Brasil
Não tem nada, não tem bronca
Vai pra p... Vai pra onde malandro?
Quer moleza? Vai se queixar pro bispo
Se bem, que não tão livrando a cara nem de bispo
Meu Brasil eu te amo tanto que você fica aqui e eu vou pra...
Oi leva eu, eu também quero ir

É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui
É sim de morrer de rir
Quando a gente leva a sério o que se passa por aqui

It's Good To Be The King - Mel Brooks

(Lyrics: Mel Brooks. Music: Pete Wingfield) 1982

[Aaaah... Oooh, Aaaah... Oooh]
[Aaaah... Oooh, Aaaah... Oooh]

Now get down people and listen to me
Gonna tell you how I made history
You can call me Louie, I'm the king of France
Check out my story while you do your dance
Now in seventeen hundred and eighty nine
The peasants were starving but I was fine
We were hangin out down in old Versailles
That's the weekend pad of my queen and I
In the alleys of Paris they was eatin rats
But it was Filet Mignon for the aristocrats
There was dukes and counts and barons and earls
I gave 'em the titles but I kept the girls
Blonde, redhead, white, brunette
Ladies in wait, I didn't wait to get
There was truffles for breakfast, tarts for brunch
The lions of the Folies Bergères for lunch

[Ooh yes, it's good to be the king]
[Ooh la la. Gee but it's good to be the king]
Say it girls
[You can be sure about one thing]
[Ooh la la, mais oui]
[It's good to be the king]

It's good to be the king

[Aaah... Oooh, Aaah... Oooh]

Well the palace was rocking, we were doin' it good
When we heard there was some trouble in the neighborhood
I wasn't too worried, no big deal
You step out of line Jack, you're on the Bastille
The party kept swingin all day and all night
The champagne was flowin', we was feelin' all right
They were screamin' for bread, things started to shake
But Marie Antoinette said "Well let 'em eat cake"
Now the rabble wouldn't have it, they was angry and mean
They built a big old raise, they called the guillotine
Then the people all shouted "We'll have our day"
Down with dirty water give us Perrier!"
I said, "The way that you walk, things might get screwy"
But they never laid a finger on good king Louie
Just keep your cool, don't fret don't freak
Say hey [Say what?]
C'est magnifique!

[Ooh yes, it's good to be the king]
[Ooh la la. Gee but it's good to be the king]
Your fantasy is my reality
[You can be sure about one thing]
[Ooh la la, mais oui]
[It's good to be the king]

It's good to be the king
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ra ba]

[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ra ba boo]

[Aaah... Ooh] Night and day comme vous voulez
[Aaah... Ooh]

Well they broke down the gate in one massive assault
And the party came to a grinding halt
They took the midgets and the freakies with the girls in tow
And a voice said "Louis, it's time to go"
They put my neck on the block, they took off my wig
And it occurred to me this was the end of the gig
They asked me did I have any last words to say
Well I raised my head and I hollered, "Hey!"

[Ooh yes, it's good to be the king]
[Ooh la la. Gee but it's good to be the king]
Well "c'est la vie" make death "la mort"
[You can be sure about one thing]
[Ooh la la, mais oui]
[It's good to be the king]

It's good to be the king
[Mon Dieu, it's good to be the king]
[Ooh la la]
[Ooh, yes it's good to be the king]
[Mais oui, it's good to be the king]
Well it was good while it lasted
[You can be sure about one thing]
[Ooh la la, mais oui]
[It's good to be the king]
C'est bon d'être le roi!

C'mon you do it
You know you do it
Everybody does it
I just did it
I'm ready to do it again

[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ra ba]

[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ba boo, ba ree ra ba boo]
[Ba ree ra ba boo]

You got me going again
You got my body moving in boogie motion
Ah ha

Baby it feels so good
You got me going again
You got my body moving in boogie motion
Ah ha

Come with me I wish you would
Baby it feels so good
Ah ha ha, ha ha

Ah ha ha, ha ha
I see you're sad cause you're missing
Missing loving, kissing
Come with me
Would you join me in my show

Ah and have you know, you're meant for me
Just one look and I'm high to let it go

You got me going again
You got my body moving in boogie motion
Ah ha

Baby it feels so good
You got me going again
You got my body moving in boogie motion
Ah ha

Come with me I wish you would
Baby it feels so good
So good

Love is crazy

Hurry up you got to start
Listening to your heartbeat
Dancing is easy
Teasing and pleasing
Follow me I'll show you
How to move your feet
Baby, you're spacin' me
You don't stop, amazing man
You mix up all my emotions
Got me in a boogie motion
Dancing is easy
Teasing and pleasing
Just follow me I'll show you
How to move your feet

You got me going again
You got my body moving in boogie motion
Ah ha

Come with me I wish you would
Baby it feels so good
So good

Ah boogie motion
Ah boogie motion
Ah boogie motion
Ah boogie motion...
