Maria – West Side Story

Maria
The most beautiful sound I ever heard
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
All the beautiful sounds of the world
In a single word
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
Maria, Maria
Maria
I just met a girl named Maria
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same to me
Maria
I just kissed a girl named Maria
And suddenly I found
How wonderful a sound can be
Maria
Say it loud and there’s music playing
Say it soft and it’s almost like praying
Maria
I’ll never stop saying
Maria

Say it loud and there’s music playing
Say it soft and it’s almost like praying
Maria
I’ll never stop saying
Maria
The most beautiful sound I ever heard
Maria

Good evening to you and Poppy. Me time? What is that? Someone is always pulling on my strings. Only me time I get is if I have a dream, lol! We are supposed to have rain at some point every day this week so that limits the outside plans. This is one of my slower weeks but next week I am slammed. Appointments and duties every day. No me time. Need to load up on the vitamins or I will be down for the count. Hugs from me and Jake to our Oz family.

Big Spender – Sweet Charity

The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were a man of distinction
A real big spender
Good lookin’ so refined
Say, wouldn’t you like to know what’s goin’ on in my mind?
So let me get right to the point
I don’t pop my cork for every man I see
Hey big spender,
Spend a little time with me
Wouldn’t you like to have fun, fun, fun
How’s about a few laughs, laughs
I could show you a good time
Let me show you a good time!
The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were a man of distinction
A real big spender
Good lookin’ so refined
Say, wouldn’t you like to know what’s goin’ on in my mind?
So let me get right to the point,
I don’t pop my cork for every guy I see
Hey big spender
Hey big spender
Hey big spender
Spend, a little time with me
Yes

“I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair” – South Pacific

I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
And send him on his way

I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
And send him on his way

Don’t try to patch it up
Tear it up, tear it up
Wash him out, dry him out
Push him out, fly him out
Cancel him and let him go

Yea, sister!

I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
I’m gonna wash that man right outta my hair
And send him on his way

If a man don’t understand you,
If you fly on separate beams,
Waste no time, make a change,
Ride that man right off your range
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum him out of your dreams

Oho! If you laugh at different comics
If you root for different teams
Waste no time, weep no more
Show him what the door is for
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum him out of your dreams

You can’t light a fire when the woods are wet
You can’t make a butterfly strong
You can’t fix an egg when it ain’t quite good
And you can’t fix a man when he’s wrong

You can’t put back a petal when it falls from a flower
Or sweeten up a fellow when he starts turnin’ sour
Oh no! Oh no!

If his eyes get dull and fishy
When you look for glints and gleams
Waste no time
Make a switch
Drop him in the nearest ditch
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum humdrumbum right out of your dreams

I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
I’m gonna wave that man right outta my arms
And sent him on his way

Walk him out
Dry him out
Push him out
Fly him out
And send him on his way!

The Music of the Night
Andrew Lloyd Webber

Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you’ll live as you’ve never lived before
Softly, deftly music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night

On Broadway
George Benson

They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
They say there’s always magic in the air
But when you’re walkin’ down that street
And you ain’t have enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you’re nowhere
They say the women treat you fine
On Broadway
But lookin’ at them just gives me the blues
How ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won’t even shine your shoes
They say that I won’t last too long
On Broadway
I’ll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
But they get wrong, I know they are
‘Cause I can play this here guitar
I won’t quit till I’m a star
On Broadway
On Broadway
On Broadway

George Benson
“Give Me The Night”

Whenever dark has fallen
You know the spirit of the party
Starts to come alive
Until the day is dawning
You can throw out all your blues
And hit the city lights
‘Cause there’s music in the air
And lots of lovin’ everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night

You need the evening action
A place to dine, a glass of wine
A little late romance
It’s a chain reaction
You’ll see the people of the world
Coming out to dance
‘Cause there’s music in the air
And lots of lovin’ everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night

So come on out tonight
And we’ll lead the others
On a ride through paradise
And if you feel all right
Then we can be lovers
‘Cause I see that starlight
Look in your eyes
Don’t you know we can fly
Just gimme the night
Gimme the night

‘Cause there’s music in the air
And lots of lovin’ everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night

So come on out tonight
And we’ll lead the others
On a ride through paradise
And if you feel all right
Then we can be lovers
‘Cause I see that starlight
Look in your eyes
Don’t you know we can fly

And if we stay together
We’ll feel the rhythm of the evening
Taking us up high
Never mind the weather
We’ll be dancing in the street
Until the morning light
‘Cause there’s music in the air
And lots of lovin’ everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night
Gimme the night
Gimme the night
Gimme the night
Gimme the night
Gimme the night
So, gimme the night

Welcome to Club Sheba

@bichon18,

Yes she did clone her beloved pet in 2004. Babs dog name was Sammie.

I don’t know what I would do if I could afford it but people grieve differently.

I cannot be quoted on this. She loved that little baby who went to heaven a while ago. Someone told me she is either in the process or had that fur baby cloned. Let us all look it up. I can understand her wanting to do this if it can be done and I know she can afford it…..however..
Oh dear……

@sheba2011,
Good afternoon. I must say the kitty pics did not make me smile, I was laughing out loud. Hubby wanted to know what I was laughing at so I showed him. He laughed too! Seriously, Gene Simmons will be jealous because the kitties are cuter than he is.
Last night Jazz was fun. “Give me the night” at Club Sheba anytime.
Jewel and Little D say hello to Miss Poppy. ❤️
