Louis Armstrong - Sugar

Tekst :

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear
And he shows em, pearly white
Just a jack knife has Macheath dear
And he keeps it way out of sight

When that shark bites with his teeth, dear
Scarlet billows they begin to spread
Fancy white gloves has Macheath dear
So there s never, never a trace of red

On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning
Lies a body, oozin life
Someone s sneaking round the corner
Could that someone perhaps, per chance be Mack the Knife

From a tugboat, on the river going slow
A cement bag is dropping down
You know that cement is for the weight dear
You can make a large bet Macheath s in town

My man Louis Miller, he split the scene babe
After drawing out all the bread from his stash
Now Macheath spends like a sailor
Do you suppose this guy, he did something rash

Old Satchmo, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Darrin
They did this song nice, Lady Ella too
They all sang it, with so much feeling
That Old Blue Eyes, he ain t gonna add nothing new

But with this big, fat band, jumping behind me
Swinging hard, Jack, I know I can t lose
When I tell you, all about Mack the Knife babe
It s an offer, you can never refuse

We got Patrick Williams, Bill Miller playing that piano
And this wonderful, great big band, bringing up the rear
All these bad cats, in this band now
They make the greatest sounds, you re ever gonna hear

Oh Sookie Taudry, Jenny Diver, Polly Peachum, Old Miss Lulu Brown

Hey the line forms, on the right dear
Now that Macheath,that bum is back in town
You d better lock your doors, and call the law
Because Mackie s back in town

    La fanette

    Nous étions deux amis et Fanette m aimait
    La plage était déserte et dormait sous juillet
    Si elles s en souviennent les vagues vous diront
    Combien pour la Fanette j ai chanté de chansons

    Faut dire
    Faut dire qu elle était belle
    Comme une perle d eau
    Faut dire qu elle était belle
    Et je ne suis pas...

    Le nouveau monde

    L amérique assissine, détruit la souche
    Et la voix du Bien, doucement se bouche
    On aimerait tenir bon, jsqu à demain
    Mais ils veulent se faire la peau sans jamais tenir compte
    De nos voix
    On fait marche rrière de 100000 ans
    Le son des rières me glace le sang...

    Nie chcę nie umiem

    I
    Nie chcę , może nie umiem
    Chować się w tłumie
    W bezpieczny mrok

    Nie chcę , po prostu nie chcę
    Lubię powietrze
    Otwartych łąk

    II
    Wolna , czuję się wolna
    I niepokorna
    Lubiłabym

    Z ciszy ciasnej i gęstej
    Budzić się częściej
    Wolałabym

    Ref.:
    Wiem ,...

    He said love

    There once was a man
    Who was born to be king
    He changed all our lives
    And he made my heart sing
    He turned water into wine
    And called his fishermen
    He cured the sick
    The lame could walk
    The blind could see again
    He told us of the shepherds
    And the flowers in the field
    The story of the farmer...

    Hear me

    A bloody rusted nail
    piercing through my veins
    no light to change eternal night to day
    here human life has no worth

    I never found what I was looking for
    do you hear me when I cry
    I never know what to search...
