Nature Boy


( David Bowie And Massive Attack )

(Ewan McGregor:)
This story is about love
The woman I lo,
Loved is dead
There was a boy
A very strange
Enchanted boy
They say he wandered
Very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
One magic day
He passed my way
While we spoke
Of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love and
Be loved in return"

Sparkling Diamonds


( Nicole Kidman, Jim Broadbent, Caroline O'Connor, Natalie Mendoza And Lara Mulcahy )

Satine:
The French are glad to die for love
They delight in fighting duels
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl's best friend

A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental
On your humble flat, or help you feed your helpless cat
Men grow cold as girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
...Tiffany...Cartier...

Satine and the Diamond Dogs:
Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

Satine:
Ah
Come and get me, boys
Black Star, Ross Cole
Talk to me, Harry Zilder, tell me all about it!
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer

Zidler and the Diamond Dogs:
But diamonds are a girl's best friend

Satine:
There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer

Zidler:
Thinks you're awful nice

Satine:
But get that ice or else no dice

Diamond Dogs:
He's your guy when stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
Oooo...Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girls best
Diamonds are a girls best friend

Satine:
Let's make love
Yes!
Oh, come on
Yes!

Zilder:
Oh!

Satine:
Tiger!
Roar! Roar!

Nini Legs-In-The-Air:
Ole!

Zidler: Everything's going so well!

Satine:
Cause that's those louses go back to their spouses!
Diamonds are a girl's best friend

Feel the beat of the rhythm of the night
Feel the rhythm

The world is on your shoulders
And all of the madness
Has got you goin crazy

It's time to get out
Step out onto the street
Where all of the action
Is right there at your feet
Well...

Dance the whole night away
And it's called the Moulin Rouge
Oh...
Just come with me and we can
Shake your blues right away
You'll be doin fine once the music starts...Oh!

To the beat of the rhythm of the night
Dance until the morning light
Forget about the worries on your mind
We can leave them all behind
To the beat of the rhythm of the night..
Oohh the rhythm of the night..
Forget about the worries on your mind
We can leave them all behind...
Oh lalalalala
Oh lala

Look at on the street now
The party's just beginning
The music's playing
A celebration's starting

Under street lights
The scene is being set
A night for romance
A night you won't forget, so

Come join the fun
This ain't no time to be staying home
Mmm..the Moulin Rouge is going on...oh!
Tonight is gonna be night like you've never known
We're gonna have fun the whole night long...
Oh!

To the beat of the rhythm of the night
Dance until the morning light
Forget about the worries on your mind
We can leave them all behind
To the beat of the rhythm of the night..
Oohh the rhythm of the night..
Forget about the worries on your mind
We can leave them all behind...
Oh lalalalala

Your Song


( Ewan McGregor And Alessandro Safina )

My gift is my song
And this one's for you
And you can tell everybody
That this is your song
It maybe quite simple
But now that it's done
Hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

Sat on the roof
And I kicked off the moss
Well some of the verses well
They got me quite cross
But the sun's been kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on

So excuse me for forgetting
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple
But now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words

How wonderful life is now you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

La de da

Well you can bump and grind
If it's good for your mind
Well you can twist and shout
Let it all hang out
But you won't fool the
Children of the revolution
No you won't fool the
Children of the revolution

Well you can tear a plane
In the falling rain
I drive a Rolls Royce
'Cause it's good for my voice
But you won't fool the
Children of the revolution
No you won't fool the
Children of the revolution
No no

One Day I'll Fly Away


( Nicole Kidman )

Satine:
I follow the night
Can't stand the light
When will I begin to live again

One day I'll fly away
Leave all this to yesterday
What more could your love do for me
When will love be through with me
Why live life from dream to dream
And dread the day when dreaming ends

One day I'll fly away
Leave all this to yesterday
Why live life from dream to dream
And dread the day when dreaming ends

One day I'll fly away
Fly fly away...

Diamond Dogs


( Beck )

As they pulled you out
Of the oxygen tent
You asked for the latest party
With your silicon hump
And your ten inch stump
Dressed like a priest you was,
Todd Browning streak he was
Crawling down the alley on
Your hands and your knees,
I'm sure you're not protected
For it's plain to see
Diamond Dogs are poachers
And they hide behind trees
Hunt you to the ground they will,
Mannequins with kill appeal
Will they come?
I keep a friend serene
Will they come?
Oh, baby, come unto me
Will they come?
Well, she's come, been, and gone
Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch a death in the fog
Young girls, they call them
The Diamond Dogs

In the year of the scavenger
Season of the b****
Sashay on the board-walk
Scurry to the ditch
Just another future song
Lonely little Keats
There's gonna be sorrow
Try and wake up for tomorrow
The Halloween Jack
Is a real cool cat,
And he lives on top
Of Manhattan Chase
The elevators broke
So he slides down a rope
Onto the street below
Oh Tarzie, go man, go

Will they come?
I keep a friend serene
Will they come?
Oh, baby, come unto me
Will they come?
Well, she's come, been, and gone
Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch a death in the fog
Young girls, they call them
The Diamond Dogs
Young girls, they call them
The Diamond Dogs
Who, who, who
Who, who, who
Who, who, who
Who, who, who

Throw our lives away
For one happy day

No nothing would keep us together

Ewan:
We could steal time

We can be heroes
Forever and ever
We can be heroes
Forever and ever
We can be heroes

Come What May


( Nicole Kidman And Ewan McGregor )

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I'm loving you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

La Complainte De La Butte


( Rufus Wainwright )

La lune trop blême
Pose un diadème
Sur tes cheveux roux
La lune trop rousse
De gloire éclabousse
Ton jupon plein trous
La lune trop pâle
Caresse l'opale
De tes yeux blasés
Princesse de la rue
Soit la bienvenue
Dans mon coeur blessé
The stairways up to la butte
Can make the wretched sigh
While windmill wings
Of the moulin
Shelter you and I

Petite mandigotte
Je sens ta menotte
Qui cherche ma main
Je sens ta poitrine
Et ta taille fine
J'oublie mon chagrin
Je sens sur tes lèvres
Une odeur de fièvre
De gosse mal nourrie
Et sous ta caresse
Je sens une ivresse
Qui m'anéantit

The stairways up to la butte
Can make the wretched sigh
While windmill wings
Of the moulin
Shelter you and I

Mais voilà qu'il flotte
La lune qu'il flotte
La princesse aussi
La la la la la
La la la la la
Mon rêve évanoui

Les escaliers de la butte
Sont durs aux miséreux
Les ailes des moulins
Protègent les amoureux
