Why Don't You Do Right

You had plenty money, 1922
You let other women make a fool of you
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?
Get out of here, get me some money too
You're sittin' down and wonderin' what it's all about
You ain't got no money, they will put you out
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?
Get out of here, get me some money too
If you had prepared 20 years ago
You wouldn't be a-wanderin' now from door to door
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?
Get out of here, get me some money too
I fell for your jivin' and I took you in
Now all you got to offer me's a drink of gin
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?
Get out of here, get me some money too
Get out of here, get me some money too
Why don't you do right, like some other men do?

Too Marvelous For Words
02:27

You're just too marvelous, too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamorous, and that old standby amorous
It's all too wonderful, I'll never find the words
That say enough, tell enough, I mean they just aren't swell enough
You're much, too much, and just too "very very"
To ever be in Webster's Dictionary
And so I'm borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous, too marvelous for words
You're much too much, and just too "very very"
To ever be in Webster's Dictionary
And so I'm borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous, too marvelous for words

La Vie En Rose
03:59
|

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouches
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ça me fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon cœur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi,
moi pour lui
dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi, mon cœur qui bat
Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose
When you kiss me, Heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes
I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak
Angels sing from above
Every day words
Seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be
La vie en rose

Golden Hour

why is the sunlight sweetest
just before it’s gone?
—all gold and warm and mournful—
maybe she’s a teasing mistress
withholding herself till dawn
—treating love like she’s immortal.
but she just can’t go on being
something that she’s not
—can’t light the way for always—
just like the first flower given
is always the first to rot
—dearest allies are the ones who evade.
and while i know that western sunset
holds hope for far more than a few
when she dips below the surface,
i fear she’s gone just like you.
it’s hard to keep a promise
you don’t know that you’ve made
—those that come and go in silence—
the harder we try to fall
the slower we are to sleep
—while the warm gold fades to twilight.
and while i know that western sunset
holds hope for far more than a few
when she dips below the surface,
i fear she’s gone just like you.
why is the sunlight sweetest
just before it’s gone?
—all gold and warm and mournful—

withholding herself till dawn
—treating love like she’s immortal.
and while i know that western sunset
holds hope for far more than a few
when she dips below the surface,
i fear she’s gone just like you.
she’s gone forever just like you.

Dans tes grands yeux noirs
Je me suis perdu
J'attends un regard
Le cœur suspendu
Je t'aime tellement fort
Toi qui me fais si peur...
Est-ce un mauvais sort,
Ou la mauvaise heure?
Et autour de nous
Chantent les tziganes
Tout le monde s'en fout
S'enivre au champagne!
Dans tes beaux yeux noirs
Je sombre, mon amour
Et mon désespoir,
À leur chant est sourd!
Je perds la raison
À chercher tes bras
Brûlant de passion
Viens, embrasse moi!
De tes grands yeux noirs
L'étrange lumière
À nimbé le soir
De tous les mystères!
Je suis fou de toi,
Ma belle aux yeux noirs
Même si je ne sais pas
Où va notre histoire...?
C'est pour ma passion
Les yeux noirs que j'ai
Fait cette chanson
Otchi Tchernye!
