[Originally by Nat King Cole]
A buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air The monkey thought that everything was on the square The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back But the monkey grabbed his neck and said-- Now listen, Jack Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. Ain't no use in divin' What's the use in jivin' Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. The buzzard told the monkey "You're chokin' me Release your hold and I'll set you free The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said Your story's touching but it sounds like a lie Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and stay right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. [Instrumental interlude] Straighten up and fly right Straighten up and stay right Straighten up and fly right Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top. |

Be firm, be fair, be sure, beware
On your guard, take care, while there's such temptation Too close, too close for comfort, please, not again Too close, too close to know just when to say "When" Be wise, be smart, behave, my heart Don't upset your cart when she's so close Be soft, be sweet, but be discreet Don't go off your feet, she's so close for comfort Too close, too close for comfort, please, not again Too close, too close to know just when to say "When" One thing leads to another Too late to run for cover She's much too close for comfort now [Instrumental] Too close, too close for comfort, please, not again Too close, too close to know just when to say "When" Be firm and be fair, be sure, beware On your guard, take care, while there's such temptation One thing leads to another Too late to run for cover She's much too close for comfort now Too close, much too close She's much too close for comfort now |

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune Somewhere there's heaven How high the moon There is no moon above When love is far away too Till it comes true That you love me as I love you Somewhere there's heaven It's where you are Somewhere there's music How near, how far The darkest night would shine If you would come to me soon Until you will, how still my heart How high the moon Somewhere there's music How faint the tune Somewhere there's heaven How high the moon The darkest night would shine If you would come to me soon Until you will, how still my heart How high the moon |

[Originally by Duke Ellington]
In my solitude you haunt me With reveries of days gone by In my solitude you taunt me With memories that never die I sit in my chair I'm filled with despair There's no one could be so sad With gloom ev'rywhere I sit and I stare I know that I'll soon go mad In my solitude I'm praying Dear Lord above Send back my love |

Pick yourself up...
Take a deep breath... Dust yourself off And start all over again. Nothing's impossible, I have found For when my chin is on the ground. I pick myself up, Dust myself off And start all over again. Don't lose your confidence If you slip Be grateful for a pleasant trip And pick yourself up, Dust yourself off And start all over again. Work like a soul inspired Until the battle of the day is won. You may be sick and tired, But you'll be a man, my son. Will you remember the famous men Who had to fall to rise again? So take a deep breath... Pick yourself up... Dust yourself off And start all over again. ~interlude~ Work like a soul inspired Till the battle of the day is won. You may be sick and tired, But you'll be a man, my son. Will you remember the famous men Who had to fall to rise again? So take a deep breath... Pick yourself up... Dust yourself off And start all over again. |

Don't cry, there'll be another spring
I know our hearts will dance again And sing again, so wait for me till then Be glad the bird is on the wing Another time to love And laugh with me, just wait and see I love you now And I'll love you forever Oh don't be sad We'll surely be together For the sky is bluer overhead If you will just believe in me There'll be another spring |
