1.
When the time gets near for me to show my love
The longer I stayed away for
Hiding from a word I need to hear now
Don't think I'll hear it again
2.
Tum paas aaye, yun muskuraaye
Tumne na jaane kya sapne dikhaaye
Tum paas aaye, yun muskuraaye
Tumne na jaane kya sapne dikhaaye
Ab to mera dil jaage na sota hai
3.
Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so… You've been waiting in the sun too long
4. "Take your mama out", Scissor Sisters (lj user="_vanillashake">)
When you grow up
Livin' like a good boy oughta
And your mama takes a shine to her best son
Something different
All the girls they seem to like you
5. "Guten Tag" (Die Reklamation)", Wir sind Helden (
mia_chan)
Meine Stimme gegen ein Mobiltelefon
Meine Fäuste gegen eure Nagelpflegelotion
Meine Zähne gegen die von Doktor Best und seinem Sohn
Meine Seele gegen eure sanfte Epilation
6.
Is it cruel or kind not to speak my mind
And to lie to you, rather than hurt you?
Well I'll confess all of my sins
After several large gins
7.
The sun came up with no conclusions
Flowers sleepin' in their beds
The city cemetery's hummin'
I'm wide awake, it's morning
8.
Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
9. "Rock me Amadeus", Falco
Er war ein Punker und er lebte in der großen Stadt
Es war in Wien, war Vienna, wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden, denn er trank, doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
10.
I need to be myself
I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic
Give me gin and tonic
You can have it all
But how much do you want it?
11. "Son of a preacher man", Dusty Springfield (
ellie172)
Billy Ray was a preacher's son
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they'd gather 'round and started talking
That's when Billy would take me walking
12.
Es regnet nicht nur in der Regenzeit
Es schüttet aus Kübeln nur so runter
Wie stellst du dir das Wetter vor in Caracas?
Das Leben in den Tropen ist viel bunter
13.
Gee, but it's hard
When one lowers one's guard to the vultures
Now, me I regard it
A torturous hardship that smoulders
Like a peppermint eaten away
Will I fight? Will I swagger, or sway?
14.
Do what I want cause I can and if I don't
Because I wanna
Be ignored by the stiff and the bored
Because I'm gonna
15. "Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen", Nina Hagen (
psychodollz)
Hoch stand der Sanddorn am Strand von Hiddensee
Micha, mein Micha, und alles tat so weh
Dass die Kaninchen scheu schauten aus dem Bau
So laut entlud sich mein Leid ins Himmelblau
16. "Ein Kompliment", Sportfreunde Stiller (
mia_chan)
Wenn man so will, bist du das Ziel einer langen Reise
Die Perfektion der besten Art und Weise
In stillen Momenten leise
Die Schaumkrone der Woge der Begeisterung
Bergauf, mein Antrieb und Schwung
17.
Stop making the eyes at me, I'll stop making the eyes at you
And what it is that surprises me, is that I don't really want you to
When your shoulders are frozen
Cold as the night
Oh but you're an explosion
You're dynamite
18.
And into the sea go pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the Dogger Bank
On the Thames to find a taxi rank
19.
Comme si je n'existais pas
Elle est passée á côté de moi
Sans un regard, reine de Saba
20.
We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels across the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more
