5.Dancing on the ceiling

Lyrics:Lionel Richie
Music:Lionel Richie

What is happening here
Something's going on
That's not quite clear
Somebody turn on the lights
We're gonna have a party
It's starting tonight

Oh, what a feeling
When we're dancing on the ceiling
Oh, what a feeling
When we're dancing on the ceiling

The room is hot and that's good
Some of my friends came by
From the neighbourhood
The people stating to climb the walls
Ooh, it looks like everybody
Is having a ball

Come on
Wooh, every body
Everybody starts to lose control
When the music is right
If you see somebody hanging around
Don't get uptight
The only thing we want to do tonight
Is go ground and ground
And turn upside down
Come on let's get down
So come on let's get loose
Don't hold back
Cause it ain't no use
Hard to keep your
Feet on the ground
Cause when we like to party
We only want to get down

Woah
Say what? Can't stop now
Just getting started
Everybody clap your hands
Come on
Everybody let's dance







































6.The Lady Is A Tramp

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

She gets too hungry, for dinner at eight
She loves the theater, but doesn't come late
She'd never bother, with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

Doesn't like crap games, with barons and earls
Won't go to Harlem, in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of those girls
That's why the lady is a tramp

She loves the free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but it's o'k
She hates California, it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp

Doesn't like dice games, with sharpies and frauds
Won't go to Harlem, in Lincolns or Fords
Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of those broads
That's why the lady is a tramp


7.With A Song In My Heart


8.Manhattan


9.Johnny One Note

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

Johnny could only sing one note
And the note he sings was this
Ah!

Poor Johnny one-note
sang out with 'gusto'
And just overlorded the place
Poor Johnny one-note
yelled willy nilly
Until he was bleu in the face
For holding one note was his ace

Couldn't hear the brass
Couldn't hear the drum
He was in a class
By himself, by gum!

Poor Johnny one-note
Got in Aida
Indeed a great chance to be brave
He took his one note
Howled like the North Wind
Brought forth wind that made critics rave,
While Verdi turned round in his grave!

Couldn't hear the flute
Or the big trombone
Ev'ry one was mute
Johnny stood alone.

Cats and dogs stopped yapping
Lions in the zoo
All were jealous of Johnny's big trill
Thunder claps stopped clapping,
Traffic ceased its roar,
And they tell us Niag'ra stood still.
He stopped the train whistles,
Boat whistles,
steam whistles,
Cop whistles,
all whistles bowed to his skill

Sing Johnny One-Note,
Sing out with 'gusto' and
Just overwhelm all the crowd
Ah!
So sing Johnny One-Note, out loud!!
Sing Johnny One-Note
Sing Johnny One-Note out loud!


10.I Wish I Were In Love Again

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

The sleepless nights, the daily fights
The quick toboggan when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses and I miss the bites
I wish I were in love again

The broken dates, the endless waits
The lovely loving and the hateful hates
The conversation with the flying plates
I wish I were in love again

No more pain, no more strain
Now I'm sane, but I would rather be punch-drunk

The pulled out fur of cat and cur
The fine mis-mating of a him and her
I've learned my lesson but I wish I were in love again

The furtive sigh, the blackened eye
The words: 'I'll love you 'til the day I die'
The self-deception that believes the lie
I wish I were in love again

When love congeals it soon reveals
The faint aroma of performing seals
The double-crossing of a pair of heels
I wish I were in love again

No, no more care, no, no despair
Now I'm all there now but I'd rather be punch-drunk

Believe me, sir, I much prefer
The classic battle of a him and her
I don't like quiet and I wish I were in love again
In love again
In love again


11.Spring Is Here

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

Once there was a thing called spring,
When the world was writing verses like yours and mine.
All the lads and girls would sing,
When we sat at little tables and drank May wine.
Now April, May, and June are sadly out of tune,
life has stuck a pin in the balloon.

Spring is here! Why doesn't my heart go dancing?
Spring is here! Why isn't the waltz entrancing?
No desire, no ambition leads me,
maybe it's because nobody needs me?

Spring is here! Why doesn't the breeze delight me?
Stars appear! Why doesn't the night invite me?
Maybe it's because nobody loves me, spring is here, I hear!


12.It Never Entered My Mind


13.This Can't Be Love

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

In Verona my late cousin Romeo
Was three time as stupid as my Dronio
for he fell in love
and then he died of it
poor half-wit!

This can't be love because I feel so well
no sob. No sorrow ,no sight
This can't be love I get no dizzy spells
My head is not in the skies
My heart does not stand still
just here It beats
this is too sweet to be love
This can't be love because I fell so well
but still I love to look in your eyes

Though your cousin love my cousin Juliet
loved her with a passion much more truly yet
some poor playwright
wrote their drama just for fun,
It won't run!

This can't be love because I feel so well
no sob. No sorrow ,no sight
This can't be love I get no dizzy spells
My head is not in the skies
My heart does not stand still
just here It beats
this is too sweet to be love
This can't be love because I fell so well
but still I love to look in your eyes


14.Thou Swell


15.My Romance

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

My romance doesn't have to have a moon in the sky
My romance doesn't need a blue lagoon standing by
No month of may, no twinkling stars
No hide away, no softly guitars

My romance doesn't need a castle rising in Spain
Nor a dance to a constantly surprising refrain
Wide awake I can make my most fantastic dreams come true

My romance doesn't need a thing but you
My romance doesn't need a thing but you


16.Where Or When(From'Babes In Arms')

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when

The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when

Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again

And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
But who knows where or when


17.Little Girl Blue

Written:Lorenz Hart/Richard Rodgers

Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do
Old girl you're through
Sit there and count your little fingers
Unlucky little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops
Falling on you
It's time you knew
All you can count on is the raindrops
That fall on little girl blue

No use old girl
You may as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy
To cheer up little girl blue

When I was very young
The world was younger than I
As merry as a carousel
The circus tent was strung with every star in the sky
Above the ring I love so well
Now the young world has grown old
Gone are the tinsel and gold

All you can count on is the raindrops
That fall on little girl blue


18.I Give It Back To The Indians


19.Ten Cents A Dance


20.There's A Small Hotel


21.I Didn't Know What Time It Was

Once I was young --
Yesterday, perhaps --
Danced with Jim and Paul
And kissed some other chaps.

Once I was young,
But never was naive.
I thought I had a trick or two
Up my imaginary sleeve.

And now I know I was naive.

I didn't know what time it was
Then I met you.
Oh, what a lovely time it was,
How sublime it was too!

I didn't know what day it was
You held my hand.
Warm like the month of May it was,
And I'll say it was grand.

Grand to be alive, to be young,
To be mad, to be yours alone!
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
Hear your voice say I'm all your own.

I didn't know what year it was
Life was no prize.
I wanted love and here it was
shining out of your eyes.

I'm wise,
And I know what time it is now.

Grand to be alive, to be young,
To be mad, to be yours alone!
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
Hear your voice say I'm all your own.

I didn't know what year it was
Life was no prize.
I wanted love and here it was
shining out of your eyes.

I'm wise,
and I know what time it is now.

25.My Funny Valentine

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

My funny Valentine
Sweet comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than Greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day

Is your figure less than Greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day


26.Bewitched

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

She's a fool and don't I know it
But a fool can have her charms
I'm in love and don't I show it
Like a babe in arms

Love's the same old situation
Lately I've not slept a wink
Since this crazy situation
Has me on the blink

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A whimpering, simpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
Love came and told me, shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

I lost my heart, but what of it
She is cold I agree
She might laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh's on me

I'll sing to her, bring spring to her
And long, for the day when I'll cling to her
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

28.Wait Till You See Her


29.Lover

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

Lover, when I'm near you, and I hear you - speak my name
Softly, in my ear you - breathe a flame

Lover, it's immoral, but why quarrel - with our bliss
When, two lips of coral - want to kiss

I say (that) the devil is in you, and to resists you - I try
But if you didn't continue - I would die

Lover, please be tender, when you're tender - fears depart
Lover, I surrender - to my heart


30.Isn't It Romantic

Isn't it romantic?
Music in the night, a dream that can be heard.
Isn't it romantic?
Moving shadows write the oldest magic word.
I hear the breezes playing in the trees above
While all the world is saying you were meant for love.
Isn't it romantic
Merely to be young on such a night as this?
Isn't it romantic?
Every note that's sung is like a lover's kiss.
Sweet symbols in the moonlight,
Do you mean that I will fall in love perchance?
Isn't it romance?

(instrumental)

Sweet symbols in the moonlight,
Do you mean that I will fall in love perchance?
Isn't it romantic?
Isn't it romance?

The hottest songs from Ella Fitzgerald

31.Here In My Arms


32.Blue Moon

Lyrics:L.Hart/R.Rogers
Music:L.Hart/R.Rogers

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.

Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayet for someone I really could care
for.

And suddenly there appeared before me the only one my arms could
ever hold
I heard someone whisper, 'Please, adore me'
And when I looked my moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own
Without a love of my own.


33.My Heart Stood Still

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

I laughed at sweethearts
I met at schools
All indiscreet hearts
Seemed romantic fools
A house in Iceland
Was my heart's domain
I saw your eyes
Now castles rise in Spain!

I took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart stood still
My feet could step and walk
My lips could move and talk
And yet my heart stood still

Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands
Told me so well you knew
I never lived at all
Until the thrill of that moment when
My heart stood still

Through all my school days
I hated boys
Those April Fool days
Brought me loveless joys
I read my Plato
Love, I thought a sin
But since your kiss
I'm reading Missus Glyn!


34.I've Got Five Dollars


35.Lover

Lyrics:Lorenz Hart
Music:Richard Rodgers

Lover, when I'm near you, and I hear you - speak my name
Softly, in my ear you - breathe a flame

Lover, it's immoral, but why quarrel - with our bliss
When, two lips of coral - want to kiss

I say (that) the devil is in you, and to resists you - I try
But if you didn't continue - I would die

Lover, please be tender, when you're tender - fears depart
Lover, I surrender - to my heart
