Better Together (Jack Johnson)

There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing but I can try for your heart
Our dreams and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned loving
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart
Why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together

Hum it's always better when we're together
Yeah we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well it's always better when we're together
Yeah it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Yeah it's always better when we're together
Hum we're somewhere in between together
Well it's always better when we're together
Yeah it's always better when we're together

I believe in memories they look so, so pretty when I sleep
And now when, when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together

Billie Jean (Caetano Veloso)

Tava jogando sinuca
Uma nega maluca
Me apareceu
Vinha com um filho no colo
E dizia pro povo
Que o filho era meu

she as more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don"t mind,but what do mean i am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said iam the one who will dance on the floor in the round
2nd verse
She told me her name was billie jean,as she caused a scene
The avery head tuened with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

People always told me be careful of what you do
And don"t go around breaking young girls"hearts
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
And be careful of what you do "cause the lie becomes the truth

Billie jean is not my lover
She"s just a girl who claims that iam the one
But the kid is not my son
She says iam the one,but the kid is not my son

For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she"s in demand
Her schemes and plans
"cause we danced on the floor in round
So take my strong advice just remember to always think twice
(just think twice)

She told my baby that"s a threat
As she looked at me
Then showed a photo of a baby cries
Eyes would like mine
Go on dance on the floor in the around baby

People always told me be careful of what you do
And don"t go around breaking young girl"s hearts
She came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her roon

Billie jean is not my lover
She"s just a girl who claims that iam the one
But the kid is not my son
She"s just a girl who claims that iam the one
But the kid is not my son

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Fumo (Fagner)

Longe de ti são ermos os caminhos
Longe de ti não há luar nem rosas
Longe de ti há noites silenciosas
Há dias sem calor, beirais sem ninhos

Meus olhos são dois velhos pobrezinhos
Perdidos pelas noites invernosas
Abertos sonham mãos cariciosas
Tuas mãos doces, plenas de carinhos

Os dias são outonos, choram, choram
Há crisântemos roxos que descoram
Há murmúrios dolentes de segredos

Invoco o nosso sonho, estendo os braços
E é ele, ó meu amor, pelos espaços
Fumo leve que foge entre meus dedos.

Composição: Raimundo Fagner / Florbela Espanca

Little Queenie (Chuck Berry)

I got lumps in my throat
When I saw her comin down the aisle
I got the wiggles in my knees
When she looked at me and sweetly smiled
Well there she is again
Standin over by the record machine
Well she looks like a model
On the cover of a magazine
But she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen

Meanwhile I was thinkin'

Well if she's in the mood
No need to break it
I got the chance and I oughta take it
If she can dance we can make it
C'mon queenie let's shake it

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

Won't someone tell me
Who's the queen standin over by the record machine
Well she looks like a model
On the cover of a magazine
But she's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

Meanwhile, I was still thinkin, hmmmm,
Well if it's a slow one
We'll omit it
If it's a rocker, then we'll get it
If it's a good one, she'll admit it
C'mon queenie, let's get with it

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie

I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie
I said go, go, go, little queenie...

Por Que Não Eu? (Leoni e Herbert Vianna)


Quando ela cai no sofá
So far away
Vinho à beça na cabeça
Eu que sei..

Quando ela insiste em beijar
Seu travesseiro
Eu me viro do avesso
Eu vou dizer aquelas coisas
Mas na hora esqueço...

Por que não eu?
Ah! Ah!
Por que não eu?...(4x)

Eu encomendo um jantar
Só prá nós dois
Se não tem nada prá depois
Por que não eu?...

Você tá nessa, rejeitada
Caçando paixão
Eu com a cara mais lavada
Digo:
Por que não?...

Por que não eu?
Ah! Ah!
Por que não eu?...
