Een van de 2 liedjes (zie ook het voorgaande nummer) die al dagen door mijn hoofd spoken en waar ik nog net geen nachtmerries (of hengsten) van krijg
They came in white boats, many years ago, they gave you presents and promised you a lot. But they lock you on a chain, put you in a mine, and they said: "Work for the glory of our god!"
Fly away little paraquayo, stretch your wings out to the sky, fly away little paraquayo, cause the white man's on the right. Everybody is so hungry, every mind is filled with fear. Fly away little paraquayo cause the soldiers’ll soon be here.
They said you're just an Indian, not better than the beast, only good for working like a slave. And so you sweat and run, til the day is done, while you know you could be better in your grey.
I don't want a lot for Christmas There's just one thing I need I don't care about the presents Underneath the Christmas tree I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true All I want for Christmas is... You
I don't want a lot for Christmas There's just one thing I need I don't care about the presents Underneath the Christmas tree I don't need to hang my stocking There upon the fireplace Santa Claus won't make me happy With a toy on Christmas day I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true All I want for Christmas is you You baby
I won't ask for much this Christmas I don't even wish for snow I'm just gonna keep on waiting Underneath the mistletoe I won't make a list and send it To the North Pole for Saint Nick I won't even stay awake to Hear those magic reindeers click 'Cause I just want you here tonight Holding on to me so tight What more can I do Baby all I want for Christmas is you Ooh baby All the lights are shining So brightly everywhere And the sound of children's Laughter fills the air And everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells ringing Santa won't you bring me the one I really need Won't you please bring my baby to me...
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas This is all I'm asking for I just want to see my baby Standing right outside my door Oh I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true Baby all I want for Christmas is... You
So no one told you life was gonna be this way *clap*clap*clap*clap* Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year
but..
I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight You've burned your breakfast so far... things are goin' great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought You down to your knees that...
I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
No one could ever know me No one could ever see me Seems you're the only one who knows What it's like to be me Someone to face the day with Make it through all the rest with Someone I'll always laugh with Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year...
I'll be there for you When the rain starts to pour I'll be there for you Like I've been there before I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...
I'll be there for you I'll be there for you I'll be there for you 'Cuz you're there for me too...

Tonight, this is what I wanna say Everything's gonna be OK Holding you forever
