Michelle, my belle.  
These are words that go together well,  
My Michelle.

Michelle, my belle.  
Sont des mots qui vont très bien ensemble,  
Très bien ensemble.

Some dumb monkey won’t play piano song  
Play piano song…

Sing us a song, you’re the piano man  
Sing us a song tonight  
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody  
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright

and you can’t find your waitress  
with a Geiger counter  
And she hates you and your friends  
and you just can’t get served  
without her  
and the box-office is drooling  
and the bar stools are on fire  
and the newspapers were fooling  
and the ash-trays have retired  
the piano has been drinking  
the piano has been drinking  
The piano has been drinking  
not me

Oh Yeah! It was like lightning  
Everybody was frightening  
And the music was soothing  
And they all started grooving

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah-Yeah-Yeah  
And the man in the back said everyone attack  
And it turned into a ballroom blitz  
And the girl in the corner said boy I want to warn you  
It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz

Now the party’s over, I’m so tired  
Then I see you coming out of nowhere  
Much communication in a motion  
Without conversation or a notion

Avalon

When the samba takes you out of nowhere  
And the background’s fading out of focus  
Yes the picture’s changing every moment  
And your destination, you don’t know it

Avalon

When you bossanova there’s no holding  
Would you have me dancing out of nowhere

Avalon…

Would you like to learn to sing?  
Would you like to sing my song?  
Would you like to learn to love me best of all?  
Anyone can learn the words and the melody’s so plain  
This is my song to bring you back again  
I’ll teach you how to sing and dance  
With a song and dance routine  
And when the party’s over  
You can fall in love with me

Well, I could just sit around making music all day long,  
Long as I’m making music I know I can’t do nobody wrong.

Hey, won’t you play another somebody-done-somebody-wrong song.  
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss by baby.

So play, play for me a sad melody, so sad that it makes everybody cry.  
A real hurting song about love that’s gone wrong.  
So I don’t have to cry all alone.

Ooooh, broken hearted melody  
Must you keep reminding me  
Of the lips I long to kiss  
And the love I miss  
Since he went away  
Night and day they play  
That broken hearted melody  
That he used to sing to me  
When our love was young and bright  
As he held me tight  
Suddenly I found  
I was heaven bound

Can’t you see  
I’m under your spell  
By the look in my eyes  
Can’t you tell, can’t you tell

Now, don’t you know  
Every beat of my heart keeps crying out  
I love you so  
Don’t you know

</div>

like the beat, beat, beat of the tom tom  
when the jungle shadows fall  
like the tick,tick, tock of the stately clock  
as it stands against the wall  
like the drip, drip drip of the rain drops  
when the summer showers through  
a voice within me keeps repeating  
you, you, you

Night and day you are the one  
only you beneath the moon or under the sun

Blue Moon  
You saw me standing alone  
Without a dream in my heart  
Without a love of my own  
Blue Moon  
You knew just what I was there for  
You heard me saying a prayer for  
Someone I really could care for  
And then there suddenly appeared before me  
The only one my arms will (ever) hold  
I heard somebody whisper please adore me  
And when I looked to the Moon it turned to gold

</div>

I look at you and suddenly,  
Something in your eyes I see  
Soon begins bewitching me.  
It’s that old devil moon  
That you stole from the skies.  
It’s that old devil moon  
In your eyes.

You and you glance  
Make this romance  
Too hot to handle.  
Stars in the night  
Blazing their light  
Can’t hold a candle  
To your razzle-dazzle

If you’re lucky you get to ride in a gold meteorite  
If you’re not, you get a mouth, a mouthful of red Kryptonite  
You better move over  
Here comes a Super-nova  
Kryptonite- - -  
Destination moon

If I go crazy then will you still  
Call me Superman.  
If I’m alive and well, will you be  
There a-holding my hand.  
I’ll keep you by my side  
With my superhuman might, kryptonite

Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth ?  
Ooh heaven is a place on earth  
They say in heaven love comes first  
We’ll make heaven a place on earth  
Ooh heaven is a place on earth

When I feel alone  
I reach for you  
And you bring me home  
When I’m lost at sea  
I hear your voice  
And it carries me
