Strange and Beautiful (I'll Put a Spell on You)


I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I'll see.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,
You turn every head but you don't see me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me.

Yeah...
Yeah...

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the first thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes...

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep,
I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me, yeah...

yeah...
yeah...
yeah...
yeah...

Black Magic





I woke up in the morning
and all the bells were ringing
My eyes could see the glory
Baby

Could hear the song they're singing
You only get to see the light
just one time in your life
Oh, black magic
that blows your mind away
and takes you somewhere that you wanna stay
You only get to stay one day
Oh, that cold black magic

Is there anything more wretched
than to just have caught one sight?
The eyes that saw the glory have been
have been blinded by the light

And it's the true believers that crash and burn
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna learn
Black magic
that blows your mind away
and takes you somewhere that you wanna stay
Oh, you only get to stay one day
Oh, that cold black magic
Ow

We can't escape; we're born to die
But I'm gonna give it a real good try
because nothing comes close and nothing can compare
to black magic
Yeah yeah yeah

Black magic
Yeah yeah yeah

Days Go By


You
You

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

You leave me when I'm at my worst
Feeling as if I've been cursed
Bitter cold within

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That's pulling at my skin

You leave me when I'm at my worst
Feeling as if I've been cursed
Bitter cold within

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you

Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Days go by and still I think of you
Days when I couldn't live my life without you
Without you
Without you
Without you
Without you

I Let Love In

Despair and Deception, Love's ugly little twins
Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in
Darling, you're the punishment for all of my former sins

I let love in
I let love in

The door it opened just a crack, but Love was shrewed and bold
My life flashed before my eyes, it was a horror to behold
A life-sentence sweeping confetti from the floor of a concrete hole

I let love in
I let love in

Well I've been bound and gagged and I've been terrorized
And I've been castrated and I've been lobotomized
But never has my tormenter come in such a cunning disguise

I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in

O Lord, tell me what I done
Please don't leave me here alone
Where are my friends?
My friends are gone

O Lord, tell me what I done
Please don't leave me here alone
Where are my friends?
My friends are gone

I let love in
I let love in

So if you're sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at you door
and the air is full of promises, well sister, you've been warned
Far worse to be Love's lover than the lover that Love has scorned

I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in
I let love in

Deathly

Now that I've met you
would you object to
never seeing each other again
cause I can't afford to
climb aboard you
no one's got that much ego to spend

So don't work your stuff
because I've got troubles enough
no, don't pick on me
when one act of kindness could be
deathly
deathly
definitely

Cause I'm just a problem
for you to solve and
watch dissolve in the heat of your charm
but what will you do when
you run it through and
you can't get me back on the farm

So don't work your stuff
because I've got troubles enough
no, don't pick on me
when one act of kindness could be
deathly
deathly
definitely

You're on your honor
cause I'm a goner
and you haven't even begun
so do me a favor
if I should waver
be my savior
and get out the gun

Just don't work your stuff
because I've got troubles enough
no, don't pick on me
when one act of kindness could be
deathly
deathly
definitely

7th Day


If you believe
You are light as air
If you believe

You will fly
There is no tear that is stronger than
The faith that's in your eye

Look now at my body
Broken there by the sin
And all my friends who drink my wine
They're all drunk again

We can make another world
Another life
We can make it out of you
Another world

Your eye is the brightest star
Your heart is the sea
Nothing in the universe
Means more than what you mean to me

And another day
We can have another life
Another world
Make it out of clay

We can make a sweeter night
A sweeter night
Listen child
We can have a softer day
Listen, listen child
Listen listen
A softer day
One where you'll be safe
Why won't you listen child
Come one listen child
We can make it outta here
We can make it out of this
Another night

And on the seventh day
To the seventh day
Listen child
The seventh day
Child
The seventh day
Child, child, child
The seventh day
Child...
The seventh day

Ask Me Anything

Right, wrong, what to do?
Someday it will come to you
Hostile indians
We named our summer camp for you

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I'm in utter dismay
I've got nothing to say

Harmless children
We named our soldiers after you
Don't be a coconut
God is trying to talk to you
We could drag it out
But that's for other bands to do

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to give
Got no reason to live
But I will fight to survive
I've got nothing to hide
Wish I wasn't so shy

I'd like to watch
I'd like to read
I'd like a part
I'd like the lead

But
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to give
Got no reason to live
But I'll kill to survive
I've got nothing to hide
Wish I wasn't so shy

Walk Away


I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear
And I am cold
Yes, I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away

Why don't you walk away?

Why don't you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Why don't you walk away?
No quake will split the ground
Why don't you walk away?
The sun won't swallow the sky
Why don't you walk away?
Statues will not cry

Why don't you walk away?

I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
And love the sound of you walking away
Mascara bleeds into my eye
I'm not cold
I am old
At least
As old as you are

As you walk away?

As you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood wind's a howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Radio Four is STATIC

As you walk away

The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin Smiles
Hitler laughs
Churchill claps
Mao Tse Tung
on the back

Sirens


Everywhere i walk i feel the danger
everyone around is getting stranger
sunglasses and vodka in the morning
sirens never came to me as warning
walking on the beach is so romantic
kissing in the sand is so fantastic
flying down the highways like you're wanted
something in her touch has left me haunted

it's a game that we play, and i don't know if i could live without you
the first time was the worst, now i thirst everything about you

come and tell me what you're really after
an angel told me that the end was soon
wasted nights flirting with disaster
give me what i need to get me through

it's a game that we play, and i don't know if i could live without you
the last time was the worst, now I'm cursed sitting here without you

and you're so bad, so bad...

Out There

I know your name
I know the people out there feel the same
I know you're gone
I hope you've got some friends to come along

I know you're out there
I know you're gone
You can't say that's fair
Can't you be wrong?

I feel ok
Sure, I know that's not what people say
Maybe they're wrong
Maybe you weren't on my side all along

I know you're out there
I know you're gone
You can't say that's fair
Can't you be wrong?

I know you're out there
You're still a case
It's still the place
Weren't you invited?
It's what you can't spare
Whatever's left, just hide the rest
And bring it right in

I know it's sick
I know you think again it's just a trick
Maybe I've changed
Just tell me was this all in vain?

I know you're out there
I know this face it's not erased
Weren't you invited?
It's what you can't spare
Whatever's left, just hide the rest
And bring it right in

Maintained inside
I've lost my range
Feeling strange
Weren't you invited?
Just never tried
It's still the place
You're still the case
Now bring it right in

Crash Into Me


You've got your ball
you've got your chain
tied to me tight tie me up again
who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you

You come crash into me
And I come into you
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream

Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby
please come crash into me
In a boys dream
In a boys dream

If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me all
in my haste
When I'm holding you so girl
close to me

Oh and you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream.. In a boys dream

Oh I watch you there
through the window
And I stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
tied up and twisted
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me

Olé! Tarantula

"It’s all to do with how people feel about what brings them into
existence - how some people kind of recoil from it and some people are
delighted by it, and some people are just shocked that they exist at
all. I think I’m in the last group. A lot of my songs are about the
shock of existence, so I suppose this is another take on it, if you like."


Robyn Hitchcock,
acerca do álbum Olé! Tarantula



[clicar na imagem]





Out in the trees old tarantula
has got me humming
Out in the desert the cacti are home
Tarantulas cluster in their underground dome
Olé tarantula

Furry black legs
And a spicy goatee
If you see Gino
won't you kiss him for me?
Olé tarantula

Through the dark windows
she squeezes her eggs
out they come tumbling
on their spindly legs
Olé tarantula

I feel like a three-legged chinchilla
Standing on a table so wide
I can't see over the side
Tarantula

Look at his fingers
Caressing your keys
If he don't please you
Well you just can't be pleased
Olé tarantula

Pumping it out through a spiky black fist
If she don't kiss you
Well you'll never be kissed (smooch!)
I knew a woman in San Francisco
Or maybe it was down in San Jose
I don't recall, either way
Neither does she
Yeah forget about me
Oh Tarantula

All life is sinful
The Catholics say
Use it up quick
And then you throw it away
Olé tarantula
Olé tarantula

A Pain That I'm Used To

I'm not sure
What I'm looking for anymore
I just know
That I'm harder to console
I don't see who I'm trying to be
Instead of me
But the key
Is a question of control

Can you say
What you're trying to play anyway
I just pay
While you're breaking all the rules
All the signs that I find
Have been underlined
Devils thrive on the drive
That is fuelled

All this running around
Well it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe
All the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve
Something that rings true

There's a hole in your soul
Like an animal
With no conscience
Repentance unknown
Close your eyes
Pay the price for your paradise
Devils feed on the seeds
That are sown

Can't conceal what I feel
What I know is real
No mistaking the faking
I care
With a prayer in the air
I will leave it there
On a note full of hope
Not despair

All this running around
Well it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe
All the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve
Something that rings true

Break The Night With Colour

Fools they think I do not know
The road I'm taking
If you meet me on the way
Hesitating
That is just because I know which way I will choose

The corridors of discontent
That I've been traveling
All alone in search for truth
The world's so frightning
Nothing's going right today
'Cos nothing ever does

Oooh, I don't wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let's break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead

Monday morning coming down
Like understanding
Mama thinks you are the ground
Looking so frightning
Nothing's going right today
'Cos nothing ever does

Oooh, I don't wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let's break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead

Time for me to break my cover
Time for me to move ahead

Been givin' up
You will come again

Oooh, I don't wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let's break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead

Time for us to move ahead

Don't Fade On Me


Darling you faded on me
Don’t fade on me
You come out of the blues all them times by yourself
Nothing lives for nothing
And that goes for pain and goes for everything else
But you faded on me
You faded on me
Don’t fade on me
You come out ok through the worst of it all
One star still standing
You make the final wish
For the world when it falls
It’s fading faster on you
Faster on you
Don’t fade on me
Even that tired old moon has finally come back to town
And she’s been asking for you
And I thought that no one lived for nothing now
Even christ stayed until he had run out of doubt
But you faded on me
You faded on me

Dancing on the Ceiling


What is happening here?
Something is going on
That's not quite clear
Somebody turn on the light
We're gonna have a party
It's starting tonight

Oh, what a feeling!
When we're dancing on the ceiling
The room is hot...that's good
Some of my friends came
By from the neighbourhood
People were starting
To climb the walls
Ooh, it looks like everybody
Is having a ball

Everybody starts to lose control
When the music is right
If you see somebody hanging around
Don't get up right
The only thing we wanna do tonight
Is go round and round
And turn upside down
Come on, let's get down

So come on, let's get loose
Don't hold back
Because it ain't no use
Hard to keep your feet on the ground
Because when we like to ball it
We only want to get down
What? you say what?
It's love now...
Just get started
Everybody clap your hands, come on
Everybody have sense...

You Were The Last High

I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I sin when you were the last -
And I have known love
Like a whore
From at least ten thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last -
When you were the last high

You were awake
And I should've stayed
But wondered
I was only out for a day
Out for a day
It was Chicago for a moment and then
It was Paris and London for a few days
But I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last-
When you were the last high

When you were the last high

I was the first to have spoken
And I said just about
All of the things you shouldn't say
So maybe you loved me but now
Maybe you dont
And maybe you'll call me
Maybe you won't

So I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I sin when you were the last -
And I have known love
Like a whore
From at least ten thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last -
When you were the last high
And you were the last high

Hold On Hold On




The most tender place in my heart is for strangers
I know it's unkind but my own blood is much too dangerous
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time
Hangin' round the ceiling half the time

Compared to some I've been around
But I really tried so hard
That echo chorus lied to me with its
"Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"

In the end I was the mean girl
Or somebody's in-between girl
Now it's the devil I love
And that's as funny as real love

I leave the party at three a.m.
Alone, thank God
With a valium from the bride
It's the devil I love
And that's as funny as real love
And that's as real as true love

That echo chorus lied to me with its
"Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on"

Walk On The Wild Side


Holly came from Miami F-L-A
hitchhiked her way across the U.S.A.

Plucked her eyebrows on the way
shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

Candy came from out on the island
in the backroom she was everybody's darling

But she never lost her head
even when she was givin' head
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
and the colored girls go

Doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Little Joe never once gave it away
everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City is the place where they said
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side

Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
lookin' for soul food and a place to eat

Went to the Apollo
you should have seen him go-go-go
They said, hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
all right, huh

Jackie is just speeding away
thought she was James Dean for a day

Then I guess she had to crash
valium would have helped that bash
She said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
and the colored girls say

Doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

There's A Light Never Comes Out

Não poderia começar a minha prestação neste espaço com uma canção do dia que fosse não somente e apenas uma canção "do meu dia", mas de toda uma vida. De todos os momentos realmente importantes que marcaram uma geração e qualquer existência de cada um de nós, exaltamos sempre os verdes anos da juventude, dos amores impossíveis, não confessados.
A nona música do álbum The Queen Is Dead, um dos mais emblemáticos da carreira dos The Smiths, There's A Light That Never Goes Out fala-nos disso mesmo. Da impossibilidade de um amor não confessado. Do confronto da ideia de uma morte agradável, de uma luz (a light that never goes out) que não chega a existir por medo da confissão desse amor (a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask), dessa sensação estranha, do medo da rejeição... os amores platónicos da nossa juventude. A beleza triste de um desfecho assim, transporta-nos a um mundo negro, de sons tão belos imortalizados na voz de Morrissey quão bela a poesia implícita e a inevitabilidade da morte e do amor.

Esta, a canção do meu dia. Uma canção de toda uma vida...






1 - Bigmouth Strikes Again
2 - Cemetry Gates
3 - Frankly, Mr. Shankly
4 - I Know It's Over
5 - Never Had No One Ever
6 - Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others
7 - The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
8 - The Queen Is Dead
9 - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
10- Vicar In A Tutu




And if a double-decker bus

Crashes into us

To die by your side

Is such a heavenly way to die

And if a ten ton truck

Kills the both of us

To die by your side

Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

There is a light that never goes out

Held our breath for too long, till we're half sick about it
Tell us what we did wrong, and you can blame us for it
Turn a clamp on our thumbs, we'll sew a doll about it
And tell us all about it
We'll sew a doll about it

How about some credit now where credit is due
For the damage that we've done
We have wrought upon ourselves and others
With a slow and vicious gun
And although pratfalls can be fun,
Encores can be fatal

And then I hear you say
Thank God it's fatal, thank God it's fatal
Not shy
Not shy of fatal, not shy of fatal
Thank God
Thank God it's fatal, thank God it's fatal
Not shy
Not shy of fatal, not shy of fatal

Wait just a second now, it's not all that bad
Are we not having fun?
You make your mountains of handkerchiefs
Where the mascara always runs
So be careful when you're done
You're bound to get post-natal
What did I just hear you say?

Thank God it's fatal
No, we don't want to hear the sound of a door
No, we don't want to hear the sound of a door
And we don't want to read the signs that you bore
You know the kind of sign you hang on a door
Saying we'll be back, what a crack
Now don't you think we might have heard that before?
Now don't you think we might have heard that before?

Bored holes through our tongues, to sing a song about it
Held our breath for too long, till we're half sick about it
Tell us what we did wrong, and you can blame us for it
Turn a clamp on our thumbs, we'll sew a doll about it

Não me deixe só


Não me deixe só
eu tenho medo do escuro
eu tenho medo do inseguro
dos fantasmas da minha voz
não me deixe só
eu tenho medo do escuro
eu tenho medo do inseguro
dos fantasmas da minha voz
não me deixe só
tenho desejos maiores
eu quero beijos intermináveis
até que os olhos mudem de cor
não me deixe só
eu tenho medo do escuro
eu tenho medo do inseguro
dos fantasmas da minha voz
não me deixe só
que o meu destino é raro
eu não preciso que seja caro
quero gosto sincero de amor
fique mais
que eu gostei de ter você
não vou mais querer ninguém
agora que sei quem me faz bem
não me deixe só
que eu saio na capoeira
sou perigosa, sou macumbeira
eu sou de paz, eu sou do bem
mas não me deixe só
eu tenho medo do escuro
eu tenho medo do inseguro
dos fantasmas da minha voz
não me deixe só

Sunday Bloody Sunday


Yes...

I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes
And make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? How long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? How long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...tonight...

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Oh, wipe your blood shot eyes
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On...

Sunday Bloody Sunday
Sunday Bloody Sunday...

The Wind Cries Mary

After all the jacks are in their boxes,
and the clowns have all gone to bed,
you can hear happiness staggering on down the street,
footprints dress in red.

And the wind whispers Mary.

A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
somewhere a King has no wife.

And the wind it cries Mary.

The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed,
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cos the life that they lived is dead.

And the wind screams Mary.

Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past,
And with this crutch, its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last."

And the wind cries Mary.

Love Song #1


When you want me baby, yea
Just call me
When you want me baby, yea
Just call me
Just call...
Just call, me
Just call.

Let me kiss your body
And feel you with love
Let me feed your body
And fill you with love
´Cause I cannot sleep
When I aint close to you
I cry, I cry
Let me feel your body

This is love
My love
This is how I love you

This is love
My love
This is how I love you
I love
You.

I adore you
Your mind, body and soul
I have searched my whole life
For you, baby
You are deeper than love
Deeper than blood

This is love
This is how I love you
This is love
My love
This is how I love you

This is love
This is how I love you

Stir it up
Move your body nice & slow
Yea
Stir it up

Stir it up
Move your body nice & slow
Yea
Stir it up
Move your body nice & slow
Yea.

Bizarre Love Triangle

Every time i think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of a fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
While every day my confusion grows

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say

I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way, I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You'll say the words that I can't say

Love is a losing game


For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game

Why do I wish I never played
Oh what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand

Self professed... profound
Till the chips were down
...know you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand

Though I'm rather blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love is a fate resigned

Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game

Uma para o Caminho

Só mais uma para o caminho, uma taça de tempo encantado, sortilégio das almas cansadas, as que cantam com olhos vermelhos: “Somos sombras pelos espelhos das cidades”.

Só mais uma para o caminho, uma troca de beijos às cegas, uma nova promessa gigante, uma dança de urgências na branda violência deste amor alucinado.

Fica um pouco mais que eu já estou quase bom, que hoje o dia doeu fundo, mas gosto ainda do mundo. Mais uma pró caminho!

Só mais uma, pede duas, pede tudo que tudo é de graça, faz o pino, tropeça na praça, esquece a raça, o governo: o inferno é mais honesto, talvez mais terno, que a indiferença.

Fica um pouco mais que eu já estou quase bom, que hoje o dia doeu fundo, mas gosto ainda do mundo. Mais uma pró caminho!

Sparks




No much I gained or break, it's those tiny little sparks
Daily life that makes me forget my wounded heart
It doesn't matter when it may rain or it may shine
Blurry memories of us come back from time to time

No much I gained or break, it's those tiny little sparks
Daily life that makes me forget my wounded heart
It doesn't matter when it may rain or it may shine
Blurry memories of us come back from time to time

No much I gained or break, it's those tiny little sparks
Daily life that makes me forget my soggy heart
It doesn't matter when it may rain or it may shine
You will always be here stored inside my mind

And I give you all my love
Sparks some fly
Tell you what I'm feeling, though
Oh, whoa, oh....

I can give you a thousand years
You'll be here
Leave you with a thousand tears
Oh, whoa, oh.....

Whoa, whoa....oh, oh

Can I be so alone?
Can I be so alone?

Hmm....

Oh, oh....whoa, oh, oh......

La la la la la la...hmm.....

Quando Fala um Português

Quando fala um português
Falam dois ou três
e o seu número a aumentar.

São outros tantos a falar
Ai! São tantos a falar
Quando fala um português
Falam dois ou três
Todos se querem escutar
Ninguém espera a sua vez
Ah! ninguém se quer calar
Pois tem direito a respeitar
Mas a conversa está a aquecer
Ai já estão a desconversar
Já ninguém se está a entender
Ai! Já estão todos a gritar
Ai! Que o insulto é de corar
A ameaça está no ar
E o punho está-se a fechar
Com tendência a piorar
E eu não paro de atiçar...

Not a Pretty Girl


i am not a pretty girl
that is not what i do
i ain't no damsel in distress
and i don't need to be rescued
so put me down punk
maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair
isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

i am not an angry girl
but it seems like i've got everyone fooled
every time i say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling

and i am sorry
i am not a maiden fair
and i am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

and generally my generation
wouldn't be caught dead working for the man
and generally i agree with them
trouble is you gotta have yourself an alternate plan
and i have earned my disillusionment
i have been working all of my life
and i am a patriot
i have been fighting the good fight
and what if there are no damsels in distress
what if i knew that and i called your bluff?
don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down
whether or not you ever show up

i am not a pretty girl
i don't want to be a pretty girl
no i want to be more than a pretty girl

Pretty Horny Flow


this is a story that I never told before
a late afternoon drink well I want more
the waitress is too hot to pick on
she got her breasts from mother nature and she hates to work in places
like this, the people are stupid and bored
"well it's hard to pay the bills and I forgot to take my pills"
i sometimes wonder how they make it through the day
i checked it out that night, I took delight

and now I know
you're so empty
and when it's time to go
you'll feel unsatisfied
'cause you didn't use your mind
deliberately stayed behind
you overlooked
and now you're hooked
but I don't mind

the fiercest thing to say is that I am one of them
i got to see her in her glory and man I wanted more
she has this pretty horny flow

[ these lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
I had a pleasant night, a ride home, my body felt like reborn
and hers it felt like never touched before
but that ain't no fact as she pushed me on my back
she went on and on and on
i checked it out that night
i took delight

and now I know
you're so empty
and when it's time to go
you'll feel unsatisfied
'cause you didn't use your mind
deliberately stayed behind
you overlooked
and now you're hooked
but I don't mind

Heart of Hearts

Her face, her face didn't change the whole damn time
when suddenly suddenly she left the room crying
turned her cards, turned her cards over they were shocked 2 find
one card, none of them had ever seen dealt
was a heart of hearts

staring, staring out the window like somethings missing
talking, talking 2 himself but not even he is listening
read the letter, read the letter over he was shocked to find
dear u, the heart is nothing but, nothing but a shell
4 your heart of hearts

talking bout real love baby
it's such a precious thing
it's got 2 be true love baby
it's such a precious thing
it's got 2 be true love baby
it's such a precious things
cuz we're all just fumbling baby
fumbling in the dark
4 a heart of hearts

Vida

Tu te pasas la vida luchando
pa los tuyos la suerte buscando
Las pasiones son interrumpidas,
tras la pena viene la alegría
En la calle dos niños que juegan
y de infancia sus caras se llenan
Libertades que son oprimidas
por personas que tu desconfías


No busques problemas, no te metas en lios
Mira que la vida sí tiene sentío
No busques problemas, no te metas en líos
Mira que la vida sí tiene sentío


Hay sonrisas que no tienen risa
Hay miradas que no tienen nada
Esperanzas que nunca se pierden
Por deseos que siempre se tienen
El camino que da a nuestros sueños
Muchas veces no tienen ni dueño
Sentimientos que son tan profundos
Como un viento de fe en el mundo


No busques problemas, no te metas en lios
Mira que la vida sí tiene sentío
No busques problemas, no te metas en líos
Mira que la vida sí tiene sentío

Blood

This wicked city
Has dragged you down
You're with the red lights
Your side of town

Don't say it's easy
To follow a process
There's nothing harder
Than keeping a promise

Blood runs through your veins
thats where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

Blood runs through your veins
thats where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

There's nothing believable
In being honest
So cover your lies up
With another promise

Blood runs through your veins
thats where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

Blood runs through your veins
thats where our similarity ends
Blood runs through our veins

Blood runs through your veins
thats where our similarity ends
Blood runs through your veins

If there's hope in your heart
It would flow to every part
If there's hope in your heart

Evidence


If you want to open the hole
Just put your head down and go
Step beside the piece of circumstance
Got to wash away the taste of evidence

Wash it away
(Evidence...got a taste of evidence)

I didn't feel a thing
It didn't mean a thing
Look in the eye and testify;
I didn't feel a thing

Anything you say, we know you're guilty
Hands above your head and you won't even feel me

You won't feel me

(Faith No More)
