America / We Are The Champions

Far, we’ve been traveling far
Without a home but not without a star
Free, only want to be free
We huddle close, hang on to a dream
On the boats and on the planes
They’re coming to America
Never looking back again
They’re coming to America
Home, don’t it seem so far away
We’re traveling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm
Home, to a new and a shiny place
Make our bed, we’ll say our grace
Freedom’s light burning warm
Freedom’s light burning warm
Everywhere around the world
They’re coming to America
Every time that flag’s unfurled
They’re coming to America
Got a dream to take them there
They’re coming to America
Got a dream they’ve come to share
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America
They’re coming to America today
Today, today, today, today
My country ’tis of thee (today)
Sweet land of liberty (today)
Of thee I sing (today)
Of thee I sing today
Today, today, today
Today, today

I’ve paid my dues
Time after time
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I’ve come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World
I’ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it’s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The human race
And I ain’t gonna lose
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World

All That Jazz

Five, six, seven, eight
Come on babe, why don’t we paint the town?
And all that jazz
I’m gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
Start the car, I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold but the piano’s hot
It’s just a noisy hall, where there’s a nightly brawl
And all that jazz
Skidoo
And all that jazz
Hotcha
Whoopee
And all that jazz
Slick your hair and wear your buckle shoes
And all that jazz
I hear that Father Dip is gonna blow the blues
And all that jazz
Hold on hon, we’re gonna bunny-hug
I bought some aspirin down at United Drug
In case you shake apart and want a brand new start
To do that jazz
Find a flask, we’re playin’ fast and loose
And all that jazz
Right up here is where I store the juice
And all that jazz
Come on babe, we’re gonna brush the sky
I betcha Lucky Lindy never flew so high
‘Cause in the stratosphere, how could he lend an ear
To all that jazz?
Oh, you’re gonna see your sheba shimmy-shake
And all that jazz
Oh, she’s gonna shimmy ’til her garters break
And all that jazz
Show her where to park her girdle
Oh, her mother’s blood’ll curdle
If she’d hear her baby’s queer
For all that jazz
All that jazz
Come on babe, why don’t we paint the town?
(Oh, you’re gonna see your Sheba shimmy shake)
And all that jazz (and all that jazz)
I’m gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down
(Oh, she’s gonna shimmy ’til her garters break)
And all that jazz (and all that jazz)
Start the car, I know a whoopee spot
(Show her where to park her girdle)
Where the gin is cold but the piano’s hot
(Oh, her mother’s blood will curdle)
It’s just a noisy hall, where there’s a nightly brawl
(If she’d hear her baby’s queer)
And all that jazz
No, I’m no one’s wife
But oh, I love my life
And all that jazz
That jazz

All Stood Still

Choreography and set: Laura
Music: “All Stood Still” by Ultravox

Leti says: “All Stood Still” is so Black & white ..the impact is clear concise and easy to understand. It is so vibrant the strength of no color rules.
R says: “I look good in bla- DAMMIT!”

The lights went out
(The last fuse blew)
The clocks all stopped
(It can’t be true)
The program’s wrong
(What can we do?)
The printout’s blocked
(It relied on you)
The turbine cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?
Please remember to mention me
In tapes you leave behind
We stood still
We all stood still
Still stood still
We’re standing still
The screen shut down
(There’s no reply)
The lifts all fall
(A siren cries)
And the radar fades
(A pilot sighs)
As the countdowns stall
(The readout lies)
The turbines cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?
Please remember to mention me
In tapes you leave behind
We stood still
We all stood still
Still stood still
We’re standing still
The black box failed
(The codes got crossed)
And the jails decayed
(The keys got lost)
Everyone kissed
(We breathe exhaust)
In the new arcade
(Of the holocaust)
The turbine cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?
Please remember to mention me
In tapes you might leave behind
We stood still
We all stood still
Still stood still
We’re standing still
We stood still
We all stood still
Still stood still
We’re standing still

Alive and Kicking

You turn me on, you lift me up
And like the sweetest cup I’d share with you
You lift me up, don’t you ever stop, I’m here with you
Now it’s all or nothing
Cause you say you’ll follow through
You follow me, and I, I, I follow you

What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What’s it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who’s got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Who’s gonna save you?
Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, until your love is, Alive

Oh you lift me up to the crucial top, so I can see
Oh you lead me on, till the feelings come
And the lights that shine on
But if that don’t mean nothing
Like if someday it should fall through
You’ll take me home where the magic’s from
And I’ll be with you
What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What’s it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who’s got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Don’t say goodbye
Don’t say goodbye
In the final seconds who’s gonna save you?

Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking
Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking

After Dark

Watching her
Strolling in the night so white
Wondering why
It’s only after dark
In her eyes
A distant fire light burns bright
Wondering why
It’s only after dark
I find myself in her room
Feel the fever of my doom
Falling falling
Through the floor
I’m knocking on the devil’s door yeah
In the dawn
I wake up to find her gone
And the note
Says “only after dark”
Burning burning in the flame
Now I know her secret name
You can tear her temple down
But she’ll be back and rule again yeah
In my heart a deep and dark
And lonely part
Wants her and waits for
After dark
After dark
After dark
After dark
