The Chalet Lines
He raped me in the chalet lines
The girl I shared with was away for the night
I couldn't get up for my shift today
I'll have to leave the camp now anyway
I'll go to London, there's a mate of mine I know
She'll give me a place
Full of woe and further to go
He raped me in the chalet lines
I had just said no for the ...
Pencil Skirt
When you raise your pencil skirt,
like a veil before my eyes,
like the look upon his face as he's zipping up his flies.
Oh I know that you're engaged to him.
Oh but I know that you want something to play with baby.
I'll be around when he's not in town,
I'll show you how you're doing it wrong,
I really love it when you tell me to stop.

Today you are young
This bitter earth
What fruit it bears
What good is love
That no one shares
And if my life is like the dust
That hides the glow of a rose
What good am I
Heaven only knows
This bitter Earth
Can it be so cold
Today you're young
Too soon your old
But while a voice
Within me cries
I'm sure someone
May answer my call
And this bitter earth

I Fall in Love Too Easily
As sang beautifully and leisurely by Chet Baker:
I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
I fall in love too terribly hard
For love to ever last
My heart should be well-schooled
'Cause I've been fooled in the past
But still I fall in love so easily
I fall in love too fast
My heart should be well-schooled
'Cause I've been fooled in the past

L’amitié
Beaucoup de mes amis sont venus des nuages
Avec soleil et pluie comme simples bagages.
Ils ont fait la saison des amitiés sincères
La plus belle saison des quatre de la Terre.
Ils ont cette douceur des plus beaux paysages
Et la fidélité des oiseaux de passage.
Dans leurs cœurs est gravée une infinie tendresse
Mais parfois dans leurs yeux se glisse la tristesse.

Lover Man
I huddled in the cold, rainy wind and watched everything across the sad vineyards of October in the valley. My mind was filled with that great song "Lover Man" as Billie Holiday sings it; I had my own concert in the bushes. "Someday we'll meet, and you'll dry all my tears, and whisper sweet, little things in my ear, hugging and a-kissing, oh what we've been missing, Lover Man, oh ...
One Dove
One dove
You’re the one I’ve been waiting for
Through the dark fall
The nightmares the lonely nights
I was born
A curling fox in a hole
Hiding from danger
Scared to be alone
One dove
To bring me some peace
In starlight you came from the other side
To offer me mercy
One dove
I’m the one you’ve been waiting for
From your skin I ...
