Yesterday!

Beatles - Yesterday (1965)
Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,
I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

Amazing Stroopwafels - Oude Maasweg (1982)
Sittin' on a highway in a broken van
Thinkin' of you again
I guess I have to hitchhike to the station
With every step I see your face
Like a mirror looking back at me
Sayin' you're the only one
Making me feel I could survive
I am so glad to be alive
Nowhere to run and not a guitar to play
Mixed up inside and it's been raining all day
Since you ran away
Manhattan Island serenade

'k Zit hier op de snelweg met een lege tank
Regen klettert op 't dak
Ik zal nou wel naar huis toe moeten liften
Ik denk aan jou bij elke stap
In de verte blijft de transit staan
Ik kom nooit meer van je los
'k Zie de Caltex in de nevel
Olievlekken op de maas
'k Loop wel door maar ik kan nergens heen
't Regent nog steeds en ik voel me zo alleen
Nu 'k je nooit meer zie
Oude Maasweg, kwart voor drie
Nu 'k je nooit meer zie
Oude Maasweg, kwart voor drie

Verschrikkelijk mooi nummer

Mwoah kan me niet echt bekoren.

Brabant

Guus Meeuwis - Brabant (2004)
Een muts op mijn hoofd
Mijn kraag staat omhoog
Het is hier ijskoud
Maar gelukkig wel droog

De dagen zijn kort hier
De nacht begint vroeg
De mensen zijn stug
En er is maar een kroeg

Als ik naar mijn hotel loop
Na een donkere dag
Dan voel ik mijn huissleutel
Diep in mijn zak

Refr.

Ik loop hier alleen
in een te stille stad
Ik heb eigenlijk nooit last
Van heimwee gehad
Maar de mensen ze slapen
De wereld gaat dicht
En dan denk ik aan Brabant
Want daar brandt nog licht

Ik mis hier de warmte
van een dorpscafe
De aanspraak van mensen
met een zachte G

Ik mis zelfs het zeiken
op alles om niets
Was men maar op Brabant
zo trots als een Fries

In het zuiden vol zon
woon ik samen met jou
Het is daarom dat ik zo
van Brabanders hou

Refr.

De Peel en de Kempen
en de Meierij
Maar het mooiste aan Brabant
Ben jij, dat ben jij

Mislukt Brabants volkslied van een nep-Brabo

Bah brabant. Wat weet die knakker nou van Brabant.

Hij is geboren in Lieshout -> andere kant van Eindhoven = Limburg

Supertramp - School (1974)
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule,
Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks
- he's coming along!

After school is over you're playing in the park
Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out
- and you're full of doubt

Don't do this and don't do that
What are they trying to do? Make a good boy of you
Do they know where it's at?
Don't criticize, they're old and wise
Do as they tell you to
Don't want the devil to
Come and put out your eyes

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
But while I am still living, I've just got this to say
It's always up to you if you want to be that
want to see that
want to see it that way
- you're coming along!

Ik wil niet naar school beeeh!

Woooeeeiii, lekkere instrumentaal stukje

Eagles - The last resort (1976)
She came from Providence,
the one in Rhode Island
Where the old world shadows hang
heavy in the air
She packed her hopes and dreams
like a refugee
Just as her father came across the sea
She heard about a place people were smilin'
They spoke about the red man's way,
and how they loved the land
And they came from everywhere
to the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand
or a place to hide

Down in the crowded bars,
out for a good time,
Can't wait to tell you all,
what it's like up there
And they called it paradise
I don't know why
Somebody laid the mountains low
while the town got high

Then the chilly winds blew down
Across the desert
through the canyons of the coast, to
the Malibu
Where the pretty people play,
hungry for power
to light their neon way
and give them things to do

Some rich men came and raped the land,
Nobody caught 'em
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes, and Jesus,
people bought 'em
And they called it paradise
The place to be
They watched the hazy sun, sinking in the sea

You can leave it all behind
and sail to Lahaina
just like the missionaries did, so many years ago
They even brought a neon sign: "Jesus is coming"
Brought the white man's burden down
Brought the white man's reign

Who will provide the grand design?
What is yours and what is mine?
'Cause there is no more new frontier
We have got to make it here

We satisfy our endless needs and
justify our bloody deeds,
in the name of destiny and the name of God

And you can see them there,
On Sunday morning
They stand up and sing about
what it's like up there
They call it paradise
I don't know why
You call someplace paradise,
kiss it goodbye

Rustig hiero!

Bette Midler - The rose (1980)
Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead

Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
