“Vesti La Giubba” by Various from Pagliacci

Italian Lyrics

Recitar! Mentre preso dal delirio,
non so più quel che dico,
e quel che faccio!
Eppur è d’uopo, sforzati!
Bah! Sei tu forse un uom?
Tu se’ Pagliaccio!
Vesti la giubba e la faccia infarina.
La gente paga, e rider vuole qua.
E se Arlecchin t’invola Colombina,
ridi, Pagliaccio, e ognun applaudirà!
Tramuta in lazzi lo spasmo ed il pianto
in una smorfia il singhiozzo e ‘l dolor, Ah!
Ridi, Pagliaccio,
sul tuo amore infranto!
Ridi del duol, che t’avvelena il cor!

English Translation

I declaim! While taken with delirium,
I do not know what I am saying,
or what I am doing!
Yet it is necessary, I must force myself!
Bah! Are you not a man?
Thou art Pagliacci (clown)!

Put on your costume and apply make up to your face.
The people pay, and they want to laugh.
And if Harlequin invites away Colombina
laugh, Pagliaccio (clown), and everyone will applaud!
Turn the spasms and tears into jokes,
The tears and pain into grimaces, Ah!

Laugh, Pagliaccio (clown),
your love is broken!
Laugh of the pain, that poisons your heart!

“If You’re Going Through Hell” by Rodney Atkins

Well you know those times when you feel like
There’s a sign there on your back
That says I don’t mind if you kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You think it can’t get worse than that and then they do

You step off the straight and narrow
And you don’t know where you are
Used the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie in a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you

That’s when you learn the truth

If you’re goin’ through Hell
Keep on going
Don’t slow down
If you’re scared don’t show it
You might get out ‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

Oh I’ve been deep down in that darkness
I’ve been down to my last match
Felt a hundred different demons
Breathin’ fire down my back
And I knew that if I stumbled I’d fall right into the trap
That they were layin’

Yeah

But the good news is there’s angels everywhere
Out on the street
Holdin’ out a hand to pull you back up on your feet
The one’s that you’ve been draggin’ for so long
You’re on your knees might as well be prayin’

Guess what I’m sayin’

If you’re goin’ through Hell
Keep on going
Don’t slow down
If you’re scared don’t show it
You might get out
‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

Yeah if you’re goin’ through Hell
Keep on movin’
Face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

If you’re goin’ through Hell
Keep on going
Don’t slow down
If you’re scared don’t show it
You might get out
‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

Yeah if you’re goin’ through Hell
Keep on movin’
Face that fire
Walk right through it
You might get out
‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

Yeah you might get out
‘fore the devil even knows you’re there

“If Today Was Your Last Day” by Nickelback

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day
(If today was your last day)

Against the grain should be a way of life
What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’ll never live it twice
Don’t take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin’ stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

“Reindeer(s) Are Better Than People” by Jonathan Groff from Frozen

Reindeers are better than people
Sven, don’t you think that’s true?

Yeah, people will beat you
And curse you and cheat you

Every one of them’s bad except you

Oh, thanks buddy
But people smell better than reindeers
Sven, don’t you think that I’m right?

That’s once again true,for all except you

You got me, let’s call it a night

Good night

Don’t let the frostbite bite

“Little Bunny Foo Foo” by Various

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.

(Spoken)
Down came the Good Fairy, and she said,

“Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don’t want to see you,
Scooping up the field mice
And bopping them on the head.”

(Spoken)
“I’ll give you three chances,
And if you don’t behave,
I’ll turn you into a goon!”

The next day…

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.

(Spoken)
Down came the Good Fairy, and she said,

“Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don’t want to see you,
Scooping up the field mice
And bopping them on the head.”

(Spoken)
“I’ll give you two more chances,
And if you don’t behave,
I’ll turn you into a goon!”

The next day…

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.

(Spoken)
Down came the Good Fairy, and she said,

“Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don’t want to see you,
Scooping up the field mice
And bopping them on the head.”

(Spoken)
“I’ll give you one more chance,
And if you don’t behave,
I’ll turn you into a goon!”

The next day…

Little Bunny Foo Foo,
Hopping through the forest,
Scooping up the field mice,
And bopping them on the head.

(Spoken)
Down came the Good Fairy, and she said,

“Little Bunny Foo Foo,
I don’t want to see you,
Scooping up the field mice
And bopping them on the head.”

“I gave you three chances,
And you didn’t behave,
And now you’re a goon. POOF!”
