THE LOGICAL SONG  (SUPERTRAMP)
	When I was young, it seemed that life was 
	so wonderful, a miracle, ooh! it was beautiful, magical.  
	And all birds in the trees, well they´d be singing 
	so happily, joyfully, playfully, watching me.  
	But then they sent me away to teach me how to be 
	sensible, logical, responsible, practical.
	And they showed me a world where I could be so 
	dependable, clinical, intellectual, synical.
	There are times when all the world´s asleep, 
	the questions run too deep for such a simple man.
	Won´t you please, please tell me what we´ve learnt? 
	I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am. 
	Now watch what you say or they´ll be calling you a 
	radical, liberal, fanatical, criminal.
	Won´t you sign up your name?, we´d like to feel you´re 
	acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable... 

SCHOOL DAY (THE SIMPSONS)
	Wow, man! Hail, hail rock´n roll. Long live...
	...Up in the morning and out to school, 
	the teacher is teaching the golden rule. 
	American history and practical maths
	you´re studying hard, you´re hoping to pass. 
	Working your fingers right down to the bone,
	the guy behind you won´t leave you alone.
	Ring! Ring! Goes the bell. 
	The cook in the lunchroom is ready to sell. Puaj!!!
	You´re lucky if you can find a seat. 
	You are fortunate if you have time to eat. 
	Back in the class room, open your books. Ooh, man!
	The teacher don´t know how mean she looks.
	Soon as 3 o´clock rolls around 
	I´m out of here, man, I´m going to town 
	You´ve hardly laid your burden down. 
	I´m nobody´s fool, I´m nobo dy´s clown 
	Close up your books, get out of your seat. 
	This is a plan that can´t be beat. 
	Down the hall and into the street,
	my handsome shoes are on my feet. 
	Up to the corner, round the bend, 
	heading the list just tell me when. 
	Right to the juke joint in your head. 
	«I´m here», I said «It´s me, Bart man». 
	Drop the coin right into the slot, 
	you´re gonna hear something that´s really hot. 
	The one you love you´re making romance. 
	All day long you´ve been wanting to dance. 
	I´m feeling the music from head to toe, 
	round and round and round you go...
	...deliver me from the days of old...
	...the beating of drums loud and low...
	...the feeling is there body and soul...

TAKE MY BREATH AWAY (BERLIN)
	Watching every motion in my foolish lover´s game.
	On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame.
	Turning and returning to some secret place inside.
	Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say:
	"Take my breath away..."
	...Watching I keep waiting, still anticipating love.
	Never hesitating to become the fated ones...
	...to some secret place to hide...
	...As you turn to me and say...
	...Through the hour glass I saw you, in time you slipped away.
	When the mirror crashed I called you, and turned to hear you say:
	"If only for today I am unafraid"...
	...In this foolish lover's game,
	haunted by the notion somewhere there´s a love in flames...
	...As you turn my way and say:...

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY  (QUEEN)
	Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
	Caught in a landside, no escape from reality.
	Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
	I´m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
	because I´m easy come, easy go, a little high, little low.
	Anyway the wind blows, doesn´t really matter to me...
	...Mama, just killed a man, put a gun against his head,
	pulled my trigger, now he´s dead.
	Mama, life had just begun, 
	but now I´ve gone and thrown it all away.
	Mama, didn´t mean to make you cry.
	If I´m not back again this time tomorrow,
	carry on...as if nothing really matters.
	Too late, my time has come, sends shivers down my spine
	body´s aching all the time.
	Goodbye, everybody, I´ve got to go,
	gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.
	Mama, I don´t wanna die, 
	I sometimes wish I´d never been born at all.
	I see a little silhouetto of a man.
	Scaramouch...will you do the Fandango?
	Thunderbolt and lighting, very, very, frightening me.
	Galileo...Figaro, magnifico!
	But I´m just a poor boy and nobody loves me.
	He´s just a poor boy from a poor family,
	spare him his life from this mostrousity.
	Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
	Bishmillah. No!!!, we will not let you go, let him go...!
	...Let me go... No...!!!...
	...Oh! Mama mía...
	...Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me...
	...So you think you can stone and spit in my eye...?
	...love me and leave me to die?
	Oh!!! baby, can´t do this to me, baby!
	Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here...
	Nothing really matters, any one can see.
	Nothing really matters...to me.
	Any way the winds blows...

STAND BY ME (JOHN LENNON)
	When the night has come, and the land is dark
	and the moon is the only light we´ll see
	No, I won´t be afraid...
	...Just as long as you stand...by me. So, darling...
	...If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall,
	or the mountains should crumble to the sea.
	I won´t cry... No, I won´t shed a tear...
	...Whenever you´re in trouble, won´t you stand by me?...

				(Lyrics added by Geral, from Argentina)

TEARS IN HEAVEN  (ERIC CLAPTON)
	Would you know my name if I saw you in Heaven?...
	...it be the same...?
	...I must be strong and carry on
	´cause I know I don´t belong here in Heaven...
	...hold my hand...?
	...help me stand...?
	...I find my way through night and day
	´cause I know I just can´t stay...
	...Time can bring you down...bend your knee...
	...break your heart, have you beggin please?...
	...Beyond the door there´s peace, I´m sure
	and I know there´d be no more tears in Heaven...

HEAL THE WORLD (MICHAEL JACKSON)
	(Think about the new generations 
	and say we want to make a better place 
	for our chidren and our children´s children, 
	so that they´ll know it´s a better world for them, 
	and think we can make it a better place).
	There´s a place in your heart and I know that it is love,
	and this place could be much brighter than tomorrow.
	And if you really try, you´ll find there´s no need to cry,
	in this place you´ll feel there´s no hurt or sorrow.
	There are ways to get there 
	if you care enough for the living
	make a little space, make a better place.
	Heal the world, make it a better place 
	for you and for me, and the entire human race. 	
	There are people dying...
	...make a better place for you and for me...
	Ah! If you want to know why there´s a love that cannot lie,
	love is strong, it only cares for joyful giving.
	If we try, we shall see in this bliss 
	we cannot feel fear or dread, 
	we stop existing and start living.
	Then it feels that always love´s enough for us growing, 
	make a better world...
	...And the dream we were concieved in 
	will reveal a joyful face,
	and the world we once believed in 
	will shine again in grace.
	Then why do we keep strangling life? 
	Wound this earth? Crucify its soul?
	Though it´s plain to see, 
	this world´s heavenly be God´s glow.
	We could fly so high, let our spirits never die, 
	in my heart I feel you are all my brothers, 	
	create a world with no fear, 
	together we´ll cry happy tears,
	see the nations turn their swords into plow shares.
	We could really get there...
	...Make the world we live in...
	...save the world for our children...

RUN TO PARADISE  (U2)
	Starry, starry night
	paint your palette blue and grey
	look out on a summer´s day
	with eyes that know the darkness in my soul
	shadows on the hills
	sketch the trees and the daffodils
	catch the breeze and the witner chills
	in colours on the snowy linen land...
	...flaming flowers that brightly blaze
	swirling clouds in violet haze
	reflect in Vincent´s eyes of china blue
	colours changing hue
	morning fields of amber grain
	weathered faces lined in pain
	are soothed beneath the artist´s loving hand.
	For they could not love you
	but still, your love was true
	and when no hope was left inside
	on that...you took your life as lovers often do
	but I could´ve told you, Vincent
	this world was never meant 
	for one as beautiful as you...
	Portraits hung in empty halls
	frameless heads on nameless walls
	with eyes that watch the world and can´t forget
	like the strangers that you´ve met
	the ragged men in ragged clothes
	the silver thorn, a bloody rose
	lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
	Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
	how you suffered for your sanity
	and how you tried to set them free
	they would not listen, they´re not listening still
	perhaps they never will...

BECAUSE YOU LOVED ME  (CELINE DION)
	For all those times you stood by me...
	...the truth that you made me see...
	...the joy you brought to my life...
	...the wrong that you made right,
	for every dream you made come true
	for all the love I found in you
	I´ll be forever thankful, baby,
	you´re tha one who helped me up
	and never let me fall,
	you´re the one who saw me through, through it all.
	You were my strength when I was weak...
	...voice when I couldn´t speak...
	...eyes when I couldn´t see
	you saw the best there was in me,
	lifted me in the air when I couldn´t reach
	you gave me faith ´coz you believed,
	I´m everything I am because you loved me.
	You gave me wings and made me fly,
	you touched my hand, I could touch the sky,
	I lost my faith, you gave it back to me,
	you said no star was out of reach,
	you stood by me and I stood tall,
	I had your love, I had it all,
	I´m grateful for each day you gave me,
	maybe I don´t know that much, but I know this much is true:
	I was blessed because I was loved by you...
	...You were always there for me,
	the tender wind that carried me,
	a light in the dark shining your love into my life
	you´ve been my inspiration
	through the lies you were the truth
	my world is better place because of you...

BETWEEN NOW AND FOREVER  (BRYAN WHITE)
	I can´t believe that I´ve found you, fate did a number on me.
	If you end up with my arms around you, it´s meant to be.
	Well, maybe my crazy is showing, but maybe I´m hooked on your touch
	but wherever my life´s going there ain´t no rush, 
	´cause wherever you´re going, I´d like to go, too.
	If you don´t have anything better to do,
	I´d love to spend some more time together,
	so what are you doing between now and forever?
	I´ll take the blue with the grey days,
	I just pray the road will be long
	´cause if I´m beside you, there´s no way I can go wrong...

COME TALK TO ME  (PETER GABRIEL)
	The wretched desert takes its form
	the jackal proud and tight
	in search of you I feel my way,
	through the slowest heaving night
	whatever fear invents,
	I swear it makes no sense
	I reach out trough the border fence
	come down, come talk to me
	In the swirling, curling, storm of desire
	unuttered words hold fast
	with reptile tongue, the lightning lashes
	towers built to last
	darkness creeps in like a thief and offers no relief
	why are you shaking like a leaf?...
	...ah! please...won´t you please...?
	...we can unlock this misery...
	...I did not come to steal
	this all is so unreal
	can´t you show me how you feel now?...
	...the earthy power sucks shadowed milk 
	from sleepy tears undone
	from nippled skin as smooth as silk
	the bugles blown as one
	you lie there with your eyes half closed 
	like there´s no-one there at all
	there´s a tension pulling on your face...
	...won´t you please...?
	if you´d just...unblock this misery
	if you´d only...don´t you ever change your mind?
	now your future´s so defined
	and you act so deaf, so blind...
	...I can imagine the moment
	breaking out through the silence
	all the things that we both might say
	and the heart it will not be denied
	´til we´re both on the same damn side
	all the barriers blown away.
	I said please...won´t you please come...?
	...just like it used to be...
	...can you show me how you feel now?...

LOVE TO BE LOVED  (PETER GABRIEL)
	So, you know how people are when it´s all gone much too far
	the way their minds are made.
	Still, there´s something you should know
	that I could not let show, that fear of letting go
	And in this moment, I need to be needed
	with this darkness all around me, I like to be liked
	In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
	cos I love to be loved...
	...yes...I cry the way that babies cry
	the way they can´t deny, the way they feel
	words, they climb all over you from where you hide...
	...when my self-esteem is sinking...
	...this old familiar craving.
	I´ve been here before this way of behaving
	don´t know who the hell I´m saving any more
	let it pass, let it go, let it leave
	from the deepest place I grieve this time I believe.
	And I let go...I can let go of it
	Though it takes all the strength in me	
	and all the world can see
	I´m losing such a central part of me...
	...You know I mean it, you know that I mean it
	I recognise how much I´ve lost but I cannot face the cost...
