1. _ Independence Day (cumba)
Now and then i get horny
At night you do
At night you do
Smile - from side to side
At night you do
At night you do
She'll be comin' round the mountain
Six white horses by her side
No stops for gas, food or lodging
She's wearing nothing but a smile
And though we struggle for our freedom
Our need for others still remains
We know what will make us happy
We know what will ease our pain
We'll pretend we are married
At night we do
At night we do
Slide your hand in mine
At night we do
At night we do
My bed is flyin' out the window
I'm pullin' up my covers to the rain
And down below cats are howlin'
It's a family affair
They're selling vegetables on broadway
A man is runnin' for the train
Strollin' down 42nd street
On our independence day
Rub-a-dub on 57th street
On our independence day!
Arm in arm on 82nd street
It's our independence day
Hey mister, hey lady
Hey sisters walkin' hand in hand
We'll be lovers in the open
We'll be lovers on independence day
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Hand in hand on independence day
This compass points in two directions
And north and south are both the same
We'll look forward to the good times
Come our independence day
Hey lady! you make me giggle
We'll squiggle like honeymooners do
I'm struck by lightnin', it's frightnin'
So excitin', on independence day
Uncle vera, auntie ida
Get so excited on independence day
Been waiting such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Till independence day
Waiting such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Waiting such a long time
And now it's here!
Independence day!
Waiting such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Till independence day
Waiting such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long such a long time
And now it's here
Independence day
Waiting such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long such a long time
Waiting such a long time
Till independence day
Waiting such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long such a long time
Now it's here!

2. _ I Know Sometimes A Man Is Wrong
I know sometimes i can be wrong
I know sometimes i do believe
I know sometimes i can be wrong
I'll be wrong until you're next to me
I'll be wrong until you're next to me
I know sometimes the world is wrong
I know sometimes i do believe
I know sometimes the world is wrong
They'll be wrong until you're next to me
They'll be wrong until you're next to me

3. _ Carnival Eyes (mapeye)
Gone away
Someone else son's gone
What a day
For dreaming
Hard hurt heart
The holds the door
Buried in time
In hallways bleeding
And all the time they walk the line
And all the time in asking land
Who's that girl
Who like to dance all day?
Beauty is always so strange
Carnival girl
Where do those eyes come from?
What is inside there?
So far away
Any day
When soldiers come
Women pray
I lie here
There's a flame
Whose light still shines
Leading us on
Through fields and bridges
And all the time they walk the line
And all the time in asking land
I've seen grasses grow
Through rock and stone
Nature is always so strange
Carnival girl
Where do those eyes come from?
What is inside there?
So far away
And all the time they walk the line
And all the time in asking land
One man throwing questions
To the stars
Is there anyone there?
Carnival girl
Where do those eyes come from?
What is inside there?
So far away
Carnival girl
Where do our lives come from?
She'll keep on dancing
The night away

4. _ Lie To Me (merengue)
It's a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know i don't care if things are not what they seem
Making up stories that you know aren't true
But you know it's all right 'cause i know it too
Who is the lady with the sno-cone eyes?
Who has the candy with the soft insides?
Talk show religion and
Soap opera love
Whatever happened to
Heavens above?
Well you can lie to me
And i imagine you do
If nothin's right
What's wrong?
That what i like about you
That what i like about you
Birds are flying from east to west
Dogs are running a political race
Twinkle twinkle
Little star
How i wonder
Who you are
Well you can lie to me
And i imagine you do
If nothin's right
What's wrong?
That's what i like about you
That's what i like about you
It's a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know i don't care if things are not what they seem
I wanna be happy, i can't stand the pain
I wanna believe, so tell me again
I'm like a chicken without a head
I'd like to fly, but i walk instead
Emotional junkies
How blind we must be
I'm just a fool for your
Las vegas tears
Well you can lie to me
And i imagine you do
If nothin's right
What's wrong?
That's what i like about you
That's what i like about you
That's what i like about you
That's what i like about you

5. _ Office Cowboy (pagode)
I can see an office cowboy
How he turns and smiles, watching the girls go by
(ride'em cowboy)
He knows how to ride a pony
If laughter makes you well, what if the well runs dry?
(ride'em cowboy)
Batom - a bala bate no meu cora

6. _ Women Vs. Men (bolero)
She had psychic defenses
He had animal dreams
They moved closer together
He said "lets make a deal"
Does not the law forbid it?
It's a treacherous act
We all must suffer
We all must do our part
No one knows how it started
And god knows how it'll end
The fightin' continues
Women versus men
Women have their world
And men, we have ours
We're into sports
And they're into flowers
The women are talking
We do not understand
They speak in a language
We do not comprehend
No one knows how it started
And god knows how it'll end
The fightin' continues
Women versus men
Fightin' in the parkin' lots
Is this what nature intends?
Armies of ladies
Fightin' armies of men
So remember be careful
Should one cross your path
One innocent movement
And it could be your last
No one knows how it started
And god knows how it'll end
The fightin' continues
Women versus men
No one knows how it started
And god knows how it'll end
The fightin' continues
Women versus men
Women versus men
Women versus men
Women versus men

7. _ Dirty Old Town (mapeye)
Well, there are sixteen people in danny's apartment
Sixteen people are living in there
Remember the days of rent control
Grandpa remembers rock and roll
These days won't last forever
These days won't last for long
You know, somebody somewhere owes us a favor
That's how things really get done
In this world of opportunities, it's a land of possibilities
We wanna live in a dirty old town
Building it up, tearing us down
With our head in the clouds and our feet on the ground
We wanna live - dirty old town
Dirty old town
Now when the ladies come from kansas
They wear their traditional colors
Today the fabrics are ragged and torn
The clothes on their backs is all that they own
They say, "don't draw attention to yourself
They'll tear you apart for a couple of bucks
Keep you head down and keep you nose clean
'cause people who're scared do dangerous things"
These days can't last forever
These days can't last for long
You know someday things'll get better
Somehow things'll get done
In this world of possibilities, it's the land of opportunities
We wanna live in a dirty old town
Building it up, tearing us down
With our head in the clouds and our feet on the ground
We wanna live - dirty old town
Dirty old town
These days shoes are worn only on special occasions
Battles are fought for fam'ly and nations
Maybe you'll pray, but god isn't home
And there's no guarantee that justice be done
We wanna live in a dirty old town
Building it up, tearing us down
With our head in the clouds and our feet on the ground
We wanna live - dirty old town
Dirty old town

9. _ Don't Want To Be Part Of Your World (samba)
Little girls go float upstream
Some a' them never comin' back
We are powerless to stop them
As they vanish from our sight
Little boys dig tunnels
Into the ground they go
Hundreds of them, disappear
Little soldiers on patrol
Singing
Don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
Underneath the floorboards
In between the walls
Ev'rywhere there's filled with children
Say good-bye to boys and girls
"we promise to be better"
Said the folks at home
"but it really doesn't matter"
Said their daughters and their sons
Singing
Don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
Free from greed and hunger
Free from hate and war
Thousands of them altogether
We are here and
There they are
Singing
Don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
And we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
No we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
No we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
No we don't want
Don't want
Don't want to be part of your world
No we don't ...

10. _ The Rose Tattoo (bomba/mozambique)
And they were imagining roses
As if life itself were a dream
Is a gift not a reason for living?
Not enough, not enough, so it seems
Lost in the stars
Venus and mars
And i'm in heaven again
I'll drink to you
The rose tattoo
I'm the invisible man
If all the dead are now living
And all of the living will die
Buying their tickets and changing their trains
Into the city and back home again
I'll drink to you
The rose tattoo
I'm the invisible man
Brinde a la rosa
Y al hombre que no vive
Perdido en un sue

11. _ Good And Evil (rumba/llesa)
Caught you walkin' like a gangster
Saw you grabbin' the controls
Now you're almost outta batteries
You gottta sweater much too small
Pokin' at your navel
Pointin' your finger too
You say your lips don't even stick together
When the dust comes up
Blowin' 'cross the plains
Pictures are fallin' in and outta their frames!
Singing : good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
Singing : good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?
Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do
Now they're wrestlin' with the forces of good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
I have seen you do things backward
You don't believe a word i say
Now you're holdin' sticky paper
Money never fades away
Talkin' like a monster
Smellin' like a baby
You got a head like a bowl of cherries now
Don't be surprised
You got what it takes
Messin' round like monkeys and apes
Singing : good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
Singing : good and evil, good and evil
They turn 'em loose and they turn into people
You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?
Let 'em go at it, let's see what they do
Ah - they're messing with the forces of good and evil
They turn 'em loose, they turn into people

13. _ Marching Through The Wilderness (charanga)
Yeah, we are the noise
The noise between stations
Yeah it's a kinda strange
Oh boy! a strange situation
I walk like a building
Never get wet
I'm looking at ladies
I'm talking like men
Don't work for the city
I don't work for the state
It's none of your business
I'm doin' all right
Marching through the wilderness
Crying out for tenderness
They call me mr. pitiful
But ev'rything is wonderful
I'm workin' real steady
I'm workin' real hard
I'm building a monster
In my backyard
Money doesn't matter
Babies never lie
I'm going in the out door
I'm doing all right
Marching through the wilderness
Crying out for tenderness
They call me mr. pitiful
But ev'rything is wonderful
I walk like a building
I never get wet
I'm looking at ladies
I'm talking like men
Marching through the wilderness
Crying out for tenderness
They call me mr. pitiful
But ev'rything is wonderful
Marching through the wilderness
Crying out for tenderness
They call me mr. pitiful
But ev'rything is wonderful
Soy el gal

14. _ The Dream Police (cha Cha Cha)
Combing the snakes in his head
Reading a book in his bed
Getting ready for the night to begin
Waiting for daylight to end
In this court of law
This court of common pleas
The crimes that you've committed
You claim were only a dream
Ev'ryone has the same dreams
On diff'rent days of the week
We are the watchdogs of your mind
We are the dream police
The judge has closed his eyes
The court begins to dream
Of crimes that you committed
While you were lying asleep
Ev'reyone has the same dreams
On diff'rent days of the week
We are the watchdogs of your mind
We are the dream police
Combing the snakes in his head
Reading a book in his bed
Getting ready for the night to begin
Waiting for daylight to end
Getting ready for the night to begin
Waiting for daylight to end
