    The Royal Guardsmen - Snoopy's Christmas

    O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
    Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!

    The news had come out in the First World War
    The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
    The Allied command ignored all of its men
    And called on Snoopy to do it again.

    Was the night before Christmas, 40 below
    When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
    He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought
    With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught.

    Christmas bells those Christmas bells
    Ring out from the land
    Asking peace of all the world
    And good will to man

    The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights
    He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
    Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
    Or was it the bells from the village below.

    Christmas bells those Christmas bells
    Ringing through the land
    Bringing peace to all the world
    And good will to man

    The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
    And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
    Snoopy was certain that this was the end
    When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend!"

    The Baron then offered a holiday toast
    And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host
    And then with a roar they were both on their way
    Each knowing they'd meet on some other day.

    Christmas bells those Christmas bells
    Ringing through the land
    Bringing peace to all the world
    And good will to man​

    Sara smile
    Hall and Oats

    Baby hair with a woman's eyes
    I can feel you're watching in the night
    All alone with me and we're waiting for the sunlight
    When I feel cold, you warm me
    And when I feel I can't go on, you come and hold me
    It's you... And me forever

    Sara Smile
    Won't you smile a while for me
    Sara

    If you feel like leaving you know you can go
    But why don't you stay until tomorrow?
    If you want to be free, you know, all you got to do is say so
    And when you feel cold, I'll warm you
    And when you feel you can't go on, I'll come and hold you
    It's you... And me forever

    Sara Smile
    Won't you smile a while for me

    Showdown
    Electric Light Orchestra


    She cried to the southern wind
    About a love that was sure to end
    Every dream in her heart was gone
    Headin' for a Showdown

    Bad dreamer, what's your name
    Looks like we're ridin' on the same train
    Looks as through there'll be more pain
    There's gonna be a Showdown

    And it's rainin' all over the world
    It's raining all over the world
    Tonight, the longest night

    She came to me like a friend
    She blew in on a southern wind
    Now my heart is turned to stone again
    There's gonna be a Showdown

    Save me, oh save me
    It's unreal, the suffering
    There's gonna be a Showdown

    And it's rainin' all over the world
    It's raining all over the world
    Tonight, the longest night

    It's been awhile
    Staind


    And it's been awhile
    Since I could hold my head up high
    And it's been awhile since I first saw you
    And it's been awhile since I could stand on my own two feet again
    And it's been awhile since I could call you

    And everything I can't remember
    As f*cked up as it all may seem
    The consequences that I've rendered
    I've stretched myself beyond my means

    It's been awhile
    Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
    And it's been awhile since I can say I love myself as well and
    And it's been awhile since I've gone and f*cked things up just like I always do
    And it's been awhile but all that sh*t seems to disappear when I'm with you

    And everything I can't remember
    As f*cked up as it all may seem
    The consequences that I've rendered
    I've gone and f*cked things up again

    Why must I feel this way?
    Just make this go away
    Just one more peaceful day

    And it's been awhile
    Since I could look at myself straight
    And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
    And it's been awhile since I've seen the way the candles light your face
    And it's been awhile but I can still remember just the way you taste

    And everything I can't remember
    As f*cked up as it all may seem to be
    I know it's me
    I cannot blame this on my father
    He did the best he could for me

    And it's been awhile
    Since I could hold my head up high
    And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry

    Gravity
    John Mayer


    Gravity is working against me
    And gravity wants to bring me down

    Oh I'll never know what makes this man
    With all the love that his heart can stand
    Dream of ways to throw it all away

    Oh Gravity is working against me
    And gravity wants to bring me down

    Oh twice as much aint twice as good
    And can't sustain like a one half could
    It's wanting more
    That's gonna send me to my knees

    Oh twice as much aint twice as good
    And can't sustain like a one half could
    It's wanting more
    That's gonna send me to my knees

    Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me
    And gravity has taken better men than me (Now how can that be?)

    Just keep me where the light is
    Just keep me where the light is
    Keep you all where the light is
    Just keep us where the light is
    Ohh.. where the light is!

    Just keep me where the light is
    Just keep me where the light is
    Keep you all where the light is
    Just keep us where the light is
    Ohh.. where the light is!

    Waiting on the world to change
    John Mayer

    Me and all my friends
    We're all misunderstood
    They say we stand for nothing and
    There's no way we ever could
    Now we see everything that's going wrong
    With the world and those who lead it
    We just feel like we don't have the means
    To rise above and beat it

    So we keep waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change
    We keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change

    It's hard to beat the system
    When we're standing at a distance
    So we keep waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change
    Now if we had the power
    To bring our neighbors home from war
    They would have never missed a Christmas
    No more ribbons on their door
    And when you trust your television

    What you get is what you got
    Cause when they own the information, oh
    They can bend it all they want

    That's why we're waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change
    We keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change

    It's not that we don't care,
    We just know that the fight ain't fair
    So we keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change

    And we're still waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change
    We keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change
    One day our generation
    Is gonna rule the population
    So we keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change

    Now we keep on waiting
    (waiting)
    Waiting on the world to change

    Waiting on the world to change(x4)

    Cheap Trick - Surrender


    Mother told me, yes she told me
    I'd meet girls like you
    She also told me stay away
    You'll never know what you'll catch
    Just the other day I heard
    Of a soldier's falling off
    Some Indonesian junk
    That's going 'round
    (Chorus):
    Mommy's allright, Daddy's allright
    They just seem a little weird
    Surrender, surrender
    But don't give yourself away
    Father says your mother's right
    She's really up on things
    Before we married Mommy served
    On the WACs in the Philippines
    Now I had heard the WACs recruited
    Old maids for the war
    But Mommy isn't one of those
    I've known her all these years
    (Chorus)
    Whatever happened to all this season's
    Losers of the year
    Every time I got to thinking
    Where'd they disappear
    Then I woke up, Mom and Dad
    Are rolling on the couch
    Rolling numbers, rock and rolling
    Got my Kiss records out
    (Chorus)
    Away......​

    Christmas Is The Time To Say I Love You

    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    Share the joys of laughter and good cheer
    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    And a feeling that will last all through the year

    On the corner carolers are singing
    There's a touch of magic in the air
    From grownup to minor no one could be finer
    Times are hard but no one seems to care
    Christmas Eve and all the world is watching
    Santa guides his reindeer through the dark
    From rooftop to chimney, from Harlem to Bimini
    They will find a way into your heart

    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    Share the joys of laughter and good cheer
    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    And a feeling that will last all through the year

    Just outside the window snow is falling
    But here beside the fire we share the glow
    Of moonlight and brandy, sweet talk and candy
    Sentiments that everyone should know
    Memories of the year that lays behind us
    Wishes for the year that's yet to come
    And it stands to reason that good friends in season
    Make you feel that life has just begun

    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    Share the joys of laughter and good cheer
    Christmas is the time to say "I love you"
    And a feeling that will last all through the year

    So when spirits grow lighter
    And hopes are shinin' brighter
    Then you know that Christmas time is here

    New Years Day

    Yeah...

    All is quiet on New Year's Day
    A world in white gets underway
    I want to be with you
    Be with you night and day
    Nothing changes on New Year's Day
    On New Year's Day

    I will be with you again
    I will be with you again

    Under a blood red sky
    A crowd has gathered in black and white
    Arms entwined, the chosen few
    The newspapers says, says
    Say it's true it's true...
    And we can break through
    Though torn in two
    We can be one

    I...I will begin again
    I...I will begin again

    Oh...
    Maybe the time is right
    Oh...maybe tonight...

    I will be with you again
    I will be with you again

    And so we're told this is the golden age
    And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
    Though I want to be with you
    Be with you night and day
    Nothing changes
    On New Year's Day
    On New Year's Day

    The words we use are strong
    They make reality
    But now the music's on
    Oh baby dance with me

    Rip it up - move it down to the ground
    Rip it up - cool down
    Rip it up - don't hang it on the borderline

    Everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody Wang Chung tonight
    Everybody have fun tonight
    Everybody Wang Chung tonight

    Our hearts beat safe and sound
    I'll hold you so close
    Just let yourself go down

    Rip it up - move down
    Rip it up - move it down to the ground
    Rip it up - cool down
    Rip it up - get out what's inside of you

    Repeat Chorus

    On the edge of oblivion
    And all the world is Babylon
    And all the love and everyone
    A ship of fools sailing on

    Everybody have fun tonight
    A celebration so spread the word

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!


    Pink Floyd - Time


    Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
    You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
    Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
    Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

    Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
    You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
    And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

    And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
    Racing around to come up behind you again
    The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
    Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

    Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
    Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
    Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
    The time has gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

    BREATHE REPRISE
    Home, home again
    I like to be here when I can
    When I come home cold and tired
    It?s good to warm my bones beside the fire
    Far away across the field
    The tolling of the iron bell
    Calls the faithful to their knees
    To hear the softly spoken magic spells.​

    And to get the party started I thought I would post the greates Pink Floyd song. I chose this clip becuse I love the studio version of the sax solo part.

    Pink Floyd - Money


    Money, get away
    Get a good job with more pay and you're okay
    Money it's a gas
    Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
    New car, caviar, four star daydream,
    Think I'll buy me a football team

    Money get back
    I'm alright Jack keep your hands off my stack.
    Money it's a hit
    Don't give me that do goody good bull****
    I'm in the hi-fidelity first class travelling set
    n I think I need a Lear jet

    Money it's a crime
    Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
    Money so they say
    Is the root of all evil today
    But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're
    giving none away​

    Soul to Squeeze
    Red Hot Chili Peppers


    I've got a bad disease
    But from my brain is where I bleed.
    Insanity it seems
    Has got me by my soul to squeeze.

    Well all the love from thee
    With all the dying trees I scream.
    The angels in my dreams (yeah)
    Have turned to demons of greed that's mean.

    Chorus:
    Where I go I just don't know
    I got to got to gotta take it slow.
    When I find my piece of mind
    I'm gonna give you some of my good time.

    Today love smiled on me.
    It took away my face say please
    All that you had to free
    You gotta let it be oh yeah.

    Chorus

    Oh, so polite indeed
    Well I got everything I need.
    Oh make my days a breeze
    And take away my self destruction.

    It's bitter baby,
    And it's very sweet.
    I'm on a rollercoaster,
    but I'm on my feet.
    Take me to the river,
    Let me on your shore.
    I'll be coming back baby,
    I'll be coming back for more.

    Doo doo doo doo dingle zing a dong bone
    Ba-di ba-da ba-zumba crunga cong gone bad

    I could not forget
    But I will not endeavor
    Simple pleasures aren't as special
    But I wont regret it never.

    Chorus

    Where I go I just don't know
    I might end up somewhere in Mexico.
    When I find my piece of mind
    I'm gonna keep you for the end of time.

    Lock me up inside ya dirty cage
    While Im alone inside my mind

    I like to teach you all the rules
    Id get to see them set in stone
    I like it when you chain me to the bed
    There ya secrets never shone

    [chorus]
    I need to feel you
    You need to feel me
    I cant control you
    Youre not the one for me, no

    I cant control you
    You cant control me
    I need to feel you
    So whys it involve

    I love the way you rape my skin
    I feel the hate you place inside
    I need to get your voice out of my head
    Cause Im the guy youll never find

    Im faking all of the rules
    Theres no expressions on your face
    Im hoping some day you will let me go
    Release me from my dirty cage

    [chorus]
    I need to feel you
    You need to feel me
    I cant control you
    Youre not the one for me, no

    I cant control you
    You cant control me
    I need to feel you
    So whys it involve...you and me..

    [repeat 4x]
    I love the way you look at me
    I love the way you smack my ass
    I love the dirty things you do
    I have control of you

    [chorus]
    I need to feel you
    You need to feel me
    I cant control you
    Youre not the one for me, no

    I cant control you
    You cant control me
    I need to feel you
    So whys it involve you and me..

    [repeat 4x]
    Youre not the one for me, no

    It keeps you runnin - Doobie Brothers


    Where you gonna go,
    Where are you gonna hide?
    You go on leaving out your heart
    And all it's saying deep inside.

    I can feel your heart beat
    You got me all wrong.
    You don't have to worry
    You just been lonely too long
    I know what it means to hide your heart
    From a long time ago -

    It keeps you running
    It keeps you running

    I know how you feel
    You know I been there
    But what you've been keeping to yourself
    Well you know it just ain't fair

    Are you gonna worry
    For the rest of your life
    Why are you in such a hurry
    To be lonely one more night?
    I know what it means to hide your heart
    From a long time ago -
