I'll Make A Man Out Of You (by Donny Osmond)


A Girl Worth Fighting For (by Harvey Fierstein, James Hong, Lea Salonga, Jerry Tondo, Matthew Wilder)

For a long time we've been
marching off to battle
In our thundering herd
We feel a lot like cattle
Like the pounding beat
Our aching feet aren't
easy to ignore
Hey, think of instead
A girl worth fighting for
Huh?
That's what I said
A girl worth fighting for

I want her paler than the
moon with eyes that
shine like stars
My girl will marvel at
my strength, adore my
battle scars
I couldn't care less what she'll
wear or what she looks like
It all depends on what
she cooks like
Beef, pork, chicken
Mmm

Bet the local girls thought
you were quite the charmer
And I'll bet the ladies love
a man in armor
You can guess what we
have missed the most
Since we went off to war
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for

My girl will think I have no faults
That I'm a major find
How 'bout a girl who's got a brain
Who always speaks her mind?
Nah!
My manly ways and turn of
phrase are sure to thrill her
He thinks he's such a lady killer

I've a girl back home who's
unlike any other
Yeah, the only girl who'd
love him is his mother
But when we come home
in victory they'll line up
at the door
What do we want?
A girl worth fighting for
Wish that I had
A girl worth fighting for
A girl worth fighting.

And the birds will sing,
And wedding bells will ring.

Bridge Over Troubled Water (1970) (by Simon & Garfunkel)

When you’re weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all.
I’m on your side, oh, when times get rough,
And friends just can’t be found.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you’re down and out;
When you’re on the street;
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I’ll take your part,
Oh, when darkness comes,
And pain is all around.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will lay me down.

Sail on, silver girl;
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
Oh, if you need a friend
I’m sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will ease your mind,
Like a bridge over troubled water,
I will ease your mind.

The Sound of Silence (1964) (by Simon & Garfunkel)

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I’ve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
‘Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

“Fools” said I, “You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach out to you.”
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence.

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisper’d in the sounds of silence.”

April Come She Will (1965) (by Simon & Garfunkel)

April, come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;

May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again.

June, she’ll change her tune,
In restless walks she’ll prowl the night;

July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight.

August, die she must,
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold;

September, I’ll remember
A love once new has now grown old.

Scarborough Fair (1966)

Scarborough Fair (Canticle)(by Simon & Garfunkel)


Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt.
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no seams, nor needlework
(Blankets and bedclothes a child of the mountains)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine.
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)

Tell her to find me an acre of land
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
(Washed is the ground with so many tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strand
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine.

Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
(And to fight for a cause they’ve long ago forgotten)
Then she’ll be a true love of mine.

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree (1973)

Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree (by Tony Orlando & Dawn)


I’m comin’ home, I’ve done my time.
Now I’ve got to know what is and isn’t mine.
If you received my letter telling you I’d soon be free
Then you’ll know just what to do
If you still want me,
If you still want me.

Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon ’round the old oak tree
It’s been three long years
Do ya still want me?

If I don’t see a ribbon round the old oak tree
I’ll stay on the bus,
Forget about us,
Put the blame on me,

If I don’t see a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree.

Bus driver, please look for me
’Cause I couldn’t bear to see what I might see.
I’m really still in prison
And my love, she holds the key.
A simple yellow ribbon’s what I need to set me free.
I wrote and told her, "Please.

Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
It’s been three long years.
Do ya still want me?
If I don’t see a ribbon round the old oak tree,
I’ll stay on the bus,
Forget about us,
Put the blame on me,
If I don’t see a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree.

Now the whole damned bus is cheerin’,
And I can’t believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons round the old oak tree.

I’m comin’ home.

How Much Does A Miracle Cost?

Tess was a precocious eight years old when she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor bills and our house. Only a very costly surgery could save him now and it was looking like there was no-one to loan them the money.She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle can save him now.”

Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall’s Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too intently talking to another man to be bothered by an eight year old at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!

“And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages,” he said without waiting for a reply to his question.

“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “He’s really, really sick … and I want to buy a miracle.”

“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist, giving her a surprised look.

“His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”

“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you.” the pharmacist said, softening a little.

”Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn’t enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs, ” Tess begged.

The pharmacist’s brother was a well dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does you brother need?”

“I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up. “I just know he’s really sick and Mommy says he needs a operation. But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money. “How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago.

“One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered barely audibly. “And it’s all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.”

“Well, what a coincidence,” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents — the exact price of a miracle for little brothers.” He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

That well dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place. “That surgery,” her mom whispered. “was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?”

Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost… one dollar and eleven cents….plus the faith of a little child.

Que Será, Será / Whatever Will Be, Will Be (1956)

Que Será, Será / Whatever Will Be, Will Be (by Doris Day)


When I was just a little girl,
I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me,

"Que Sera Sera,
Whatever will be will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que Sera Sera
What will be will be."

When I grew up, and fell in love,
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows, day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said,

"Que Sera Sera,
Whatever will be will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que Sera Sera
What will be will be."

Now I have children of my own.
They ask their mother, "What will I be?
Will I be handsome? Will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly,

"Que Sera Sera,
Whatever will be will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que Sera Sera
What will be will be."

I’d rather be a hammer than a nail.
Yes, I would. If I only could, I surely would.

Away, I’d rather sail away
Like a swan that’s here and gone.
A man gets tied up to the ground.
He gives the world its saddest sound
Its saddest sound.

I’d rather be a forest than a street.
Yes, I would. If I could, I surely would.
I’d rather feel the earth beneath my feet.
Yes I would. If I only could, I surely would.
