Somewhere Over The Rainbow
(Arlen/Harburg)

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh why can't I

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why, oh why can't I

Winchester Cathedral
(Geoff Stephens)

Winchester Cathedral
You're bringin' me down
You stood there and watched as
My baby left town

You could've done something
But you didn't try
You didn't do nothing
You let her walk by

Now everyone knows just how much I need her, that girl (are you that girl)
She wouldn't have gone far away if only you'd started ringing your bell

Winchester Cathedral
You're bringin' me down
You stood there and watched as
My baby left town

La chambre separée (A media luz)
(E. Donato/John David Parker-Tanja/Werner Lang/Taco Ockerse)

Contessa, of Tridessa
Frequented clubs of bad taste
In disguise she mine the hunter (???)
Only to play with her brain

Her husband at home without a notion
Led a dull, secluded life
Tell the night he ???
Now he hunts her night and day

Trivialities and fate, with a pinch of spice and vice
Has changed the lives of small and great

La chambre separée, that lusty hideaway
Has many little secrets who tell of yesterday
Some trivial, some trite, some oo-la-la's in white
Some rendezvous made history or ended in a fight

Napolean Bonaparte
Was fooled, went out on a spree
Girls amused him in the chamber
There was no way he could flee

His generals, ??? conspired
France was ready for a little break
They dethroned their ruler
Locked in the gwudarufay (???)

Trivialities and fate, with a pinch of spice and vice
Has changed the lives of small and great

La chambre separée, that lusty hideaway
Has many little secrets who tell of yesterday
Some trivial, some trite, some oo-la-la's in white
Some rendezvous made history or ended in a fight

Livin' in My Dreamworld
(John David Parker-Tanja/Werner Lang/Taco Ockerse)

Livin' in my dreamworld, mem'ries of yesteryear
Visions of Garbo, that old piano
Those golden years are right here (I love 'em)
Livin' in my dreamworld, don't you dare wake me up
I'm hooked on Charleston, I sing a long song
Don't let 'em disappear

Come fly with me, there's room within my fantasy
In dreams, there'll be a shooting star for you and me
I'm not nuts now honey, so take a chance
We'll dance on the Milky Way (you'll love it)

Livin' in a dreamworld, moonlight serenade
Two lovers spending time, never-ending
Honeymoon escapade (you gather)
Livin' in my dreamworld, twilight twa nu mua
Conquer the dance floor, 'til we can't take more
Na per des ear un wah

Come fly with me, there's room within my fantasy
In dreams, there'll be a shooting star for you and me
I'm not nuts so honey, come take your chance
Romancing, dancing here (it's magic)

Livin' in a dreamworld, programmed on way back then
You'll be my Harlow, I'm Valentino
Tear up the town like them (they'll love us)
Livin' in my dreamworld, destined for the past
Don't like the eighties, livin' on maybe's
Big brother's watching you (don't trust him)
(Living in my dreamworld, where did things go wrong)
(Computerizing and analyzing)
(Destroying my favorite song)

You Are My Lucky Star
(Nacio Herb Brown/Arthur Freed)

You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
Two lovely eyes, at me they were beamin', gleamin'
I was star-struck

You're all my lucky charms
I'm lucky in your arms
You've opened heaven's portal here on earth for this poor mortal
You are my lucky star

In my imagination, I saw a star-lit sky so bright
In my imagination, there I saw you in the light
And then one day I found you, but I could not realize
My lucky star shining, right before my very eyes, oh

You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
If God was a glamorous creature
You're a four-star feature

Though you are never seen
Up on some movie screen
You are my Scheer (???), Crawford, Hepburn, Harlow, and my Garbo
You are my lucky star

You are my lucky star
You know I saw you, baby, from afar
Two lovely eyes, at me they were beamin', gleamin', you know
I was star-struck

Though you are never seen
Up on some movie screen
You've opened heaven's portal here on earth for this poor mortal
You are my lucky star

Let's Face the Music and Dance
(Irving Berlin)

(What we're gonna do?)
(Gonna do what?)
(Hey - what we're gonna do, c'mon)
(C'mon, c'mon, what we're gonna do)

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill and while you still have the chance
Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune, and then

There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance (dance - dance - dance)

Taco's Charleston (Medley)
- Original Charleston
(C. Mack/J. Johnson)
- An Oldies Trip
(John David Parker-Tanja/Werner Lang/Taco Ockerse)
- Yes Sir, That's My Baby
(Walter Donaldson/Gus Kahn)

Charleston, Charleston
???....

Yes sir, that's my baby
No sir, I don't mean maybe
Yes sir, that's my baby now

Yes now, we've decided
No no, we won't hide it
Yes now, you're invited now

Hey by the way, by the way
When we reach the preacher, I'll say

Yes sir, that's my baby
No sir, I don't mean maybe
Yes sir, that's my baby now
