Straight To Hell

If you can play on the fiddle
How's about a British jig and reel?
Speaking King's English in quotation
As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust water froze
In the generation
Clear as winter ice
This is your paradise

There ain't no need for ya
There ain't no need for ya
Go straight to Hell boys
Go straight to Hell boys

Y'wanna join in a chorus
Of the Amerasian blues?
When it's Christmas out in Ho Chi Minh City
Kiddie say papa papa papa papa papa-san take me home
See me got photo photo
Photograph of you and Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
Of you and Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
Lemme tell ya 'bout your blood bamboo kid.
It ain't Coca-Cola it's rice.

Straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys
Oh Papa-san
Please take me home
Oh Papa-san
Everybody they wanna go home
So Mamma-san said

You wanna play mind-crazed banjo
On the druggy-drag ragtime U.S.A.?
In Parkland International
Hey! Junkiedom U.S.A.
Where procaine proves the purest rock man groove
and rat poison
The volatile Molotov says

Go straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys

Can you cough it up loud and strong
The immigrants
They wanna sing all night long
It could be anywhere
Most likely could be any frontier
Any hemisphere
No man's land
Ain't no asylum here
King Solomon he never lived round here

Straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys
Go straight to Hell, boys

(Lily Allen featuring Mick Jones)

Our Hell

First went wrong is hard to find
We’re paralyzed, we apologize
Our hell is a good life
Last went wrong, where’s my prize under the lights
Can we call it in?
We’ll be on the road
Can we stop?
When we stop my back will turn your face toward the fence

What I thought it was it isn’t now

All this weight, is honest worse
We’re moderate, we modernize
till our hell is a good life
All we know what to forget… how to do right
Coloring in the black hole
Can’t we stop, when we stop
My hands will shake, my eyes will burn
My throat will ache, watching you turn
From me toward your friends

What I thought it was it isn’t now
What I thought it was it isn’t
Punishment to stall what is done
What I thought was in is missing out
What I thought it was it isn’t now

There’s a pattern in the system
There’s a bullet in the gun
That’s why I tried to save you
But it can’t be done

(Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton)

Everything In Its Right Place

Everything, everything, everything, everything..
In its right place
In its right place
In its right place
In its right place

Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon
Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon
Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon
Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon

Everything, everything, everything..
In its right place
In its right place
In its right place
Right place

There are two colours in my head
There are two colours in my head
What, what is that you try to say?
What, what was that you tried to say?
Tried to say.. tried to say..
Tried to say.. tried to say.. tried to say...

Everything, everything, everything..
Everything in its right place

(Radiohead)

A Whiter Shade Of Pale

We skipped the light fandango
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
but the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
as the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
the waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
as the miller told his tale
that her face, at first just ghostly,
turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'There is no reason
and the truth is plain to see.'
But I wandered through my playing cards
and would not let her be
one of sixteen vestal virgins
who were leaving for the coast
and although my eyes were open
they might have just as well've been closed

(Procol Harum)

Revelry

What a night for a dance, you know I'm a dancing machine
With the fire in my bones and the sweet taste of kerosene
I get lost in the light so high don't wanna come down
To face the loss of the good thing that I have found

Woo hoo hoo
Woo hoo hoo

In the dark of the night I can hear you calling my name
With the hardest of hearts I still feel full of pain
So I drink and I smoke and I ask you if you're ever around
Even though it was me who drove us right in the ground

See the time we shared it was precious to me
But all the while I was dreaming of revelry

Gonna run baby run like a stream down a mountainside
With the wind at my back I won't ever even bat an eye
Just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart
But the demon in me was the best of friends from the start

So the time we shared it was precious to me
All the while I was dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry

And I told myself for the way you go, it rained so hard it felt like snow
Everything came tumbling down on me
In the back of the woods in the dark of the night
Palest of the old moonlight
Everything just felt so incomplete

Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry
Dreaming of revelry

(Kings of Leon)

Infinito Particular

Eis o melhor e o pior de mim

O meu termômetro, o meu quilate
Vem, cara, me retrate

Não é impossível
Eu não sou difícil de ler

Faça sua parte

Eu sou daqui, eu não sou de Marte
Vem, cara, me repara

Não vê, tá na cara, sou porta bandeira de mim

Só não se perca ao entrar
No meu infinito particular

Em alguns instantes

Sou pequenina e também gigante
Vem, cara, se declara

O mundo é portátil
Pra quem não tem nada a esconder

Olha minha cara

É só mistério, não tem segredo
Vem cá, não tenha medo

A água é potável
Daqui você pode beber

Só não se perca ao entrar
No meu infinito particular

(Marisa Monte)

Grapevine Fires

When the wind picked up the fire spread
And the grapevines seemed left for dead
And the Northern sky looked like the end of days
The end of days

The wake-up call to a rented room
Sounded like an alarm of impending doom
To warn us it's only a matter of time
Before we all burn

Before we all burn
Before we all burn
Before we all burn

We bought some wine and some paper cups
Near your daughters school when we picked her up
And drove to a cemetery on a hill
On a hill

And we watched the plumes paint the sky gray
But she laughed and danced through the field of graves
And there I knew it would be alright
That everything would be alright

Would be alright
Would be alright
Would be alright

And the news reports on the radio
Said it was getting worse
As the ocean air fanned the flames
But I couldn't think
Of anywhere I would of rather been
To watch it all burn away

To burn away

And the firemen worked in double shifts
With prayers for rain on their lips
And they knew it was only a matter of time

(Death Cab For Cutie)

The Park

Why would he come back through the park
You thought that you saw him, but no you did not
It's not him coming across the sea to surprise you
Not him who would know where in London to find you

Sadness so real that it populates
The city and leaves you homeless again
Steam from a cup and snow on the path
The seasons have changed from the present to past

The past...
There's hope to have
In the past...

Why would he come back through the park
You thought that you saw him, but no you did not
Who can be sure of anything through
The distance that keeps you from knowing truth

Why would he think, the boy could become
The man who could make you sure he was the one
The one...
My one...
My one...

(Bon Iver)

Sleep

When I woke up this morning
you were so far away from me
And I knew it was a warning
of an empty space in between

Feeling free when I'm with you
But knowing I'm not far away from home
Now what am I supposed to do,
when the answers all come out wrong

And I need something to help me sleep
When I know you're not good for me
And I need something I can keep
From the empty space in between
From the empty space in between

You treated me like a goddess
When we were around everyone else
How come you couldn't notice me
When I was standing by myself

And I need something to help me sleep
When I know you're not good for me
And I need something I can keep
From the empty space in between
From the empty space in between

Something to help me,
Something to help me,
Something to help me to sleep

Something to help me,
Something to help me,
Something to help me to sleep

Tranquilo

Tranquilo
Levo a vida tranquilo
Não tenho medo do mundo
Não tenho medo do mundo
Não vou me preocupar
Não vou me preocupar

Tranquilo
Levo a vida tranquilo
Não tenho medo da morte
Não tenho medo da morte
Não vou me preocupar
Não vou me preocupar

Que passe por mim a doença
Que passe por mim a pobreza
Que passe por mim a maldade, a mentira e a falta de crença
Que passe por mim olho grande
Que passe por mim a má sorte
Que passe por mim a inveja, a discórdia e a ignorância

Tranquilo
Levo a vida tranquilo

Que me passe
A doença que me passe
A pobreza que me passe
A maldade que me passe
Que me passe
Olho grande que me passe
A inveja que me passe
A tristeza da guerra

Tranquilo
Levo a vida tão tranquila
Não tenho medo da morte
Não tenho medo da morte
Não vou me preocupar
Não vou me preocupar

It Doesn't Matter

It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
It doesn't matter if I cry
Don't matter if I bleed
You've been on a road
Don't know where it goes or where it leads

It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
You've made up your mind to go
I won't beg you to stay
You've been in a cage
Throw you to the wind you fly away

It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
It doesn't matter if I cry
Don't matter if I bleed
Feel the sting of tears
Falling on this face you've loved for years

(Alison Krauss)

Feeling Good

birds flying high you know how i feel

and i’m feeling good

(My Brightest Diamond)

Breathe

I brought you something close to me,
Left for something you see though your here.
You haunt my dreams
There's nothing to do but believe,
Just Believe.
Just Breathe.

Another day, just believe,
Another day, just breathe
Another day, just believe,
Another day. Just breathe.

I'm used to it by now.
Another day, just believe.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just breathe.
Lying in my bed,
Another day, staring at the ceiling.

Just breathe. Another day.
Another day, just believe.
Another day.
I'm used to it by now.
I'm used to it by now.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just breathe. Just believe.
Just believe. Just breathe.
Just believe.
Another day, just believe.
Another day.
Another day, just believe,
Another day, just breathe,
Another day (I do believe).
Another day(so hard to breathe)
Another day(not so hard to believe)
Another day. Another day.

Absolute Beginners

I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
But I'm absolutely sane
As long as we're together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean
Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true

Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can't shake
Oh we're absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake
As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
We're certain to succeed

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could sail over heartaches
Just like the films
If it's reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true

(David Bowie)

Halfway Up The Hindu Kush

The first time that i saw you
I said "for goodness sake
That man's got the power
He's a charmer with a snake"
I was thrilled and fascinated
But somehow liberated
When you took me to a place i'd never been.
You showed me lots of things i'd never seen

You set me free
As if you'd taken me
Halfway up the hindu kush
And i love you
For showing me the view
From halfway up the hindu kush

The next time that i saw you, you looked into my eyes
I was sitting on your carpet when i felt it begin to rise
I kinda got the feeling
I was floating to the ceiling
Instead of looking at the sky
You picked me up and showed me how to fly

You set me free, as if you'd taken me
Halfway up the hindu kush
And i love you
For showing me the view
From halfway up the hindu kush

From halfway up the hindu
From halfway up the hindu
From halfway up the hindu kush

You set me free, as if you'd taken me
Halfway up the hindu kush
And i love you
For showing me the view
From halfway up the hindu kush
Halfway up the hindu kush

(Katie Melua)

Blue Bird On a Sunny Day

Oh blue bird
Take me away to your house
Sing me your song
Leave my cold heart around
Someday I will
Love you somehow

But tomorrow never comes
i'm still holding my cold heart
In your hands
Or in your wings

Oh blue boy
Just give me the keys to your
Warm bed
I will marry you
Forever I'll stand

But tomorrow never comes
i'm still holding my cold heart
In your hands
Or in your wings

Do you know waking up
Find a look like this from ya
I learn how to try
And I can never ever find you in my mind
I am not that kind

Oh Blue Bird take me away
Ohhh
I don’t want die in a sunny day
Oh Blue Bird take me away
Ohhh
I don’t want die in a sunny day
Oh Blue Bird take me away
Hmmm
I don’t want die in a sunny day

Joga

All these accidents that happen
Follow the dot
Coincidence makes sense
Only with you
You don't have to speak
I feel

Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me
Then the riddle gets solved
And you push me up to this

State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be

All that no one sees
You see what's inside of me
Every nerve that hurts
You heal deep inside of me, ooh
You don't have to speak
I feel

Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me and confuse
Then the riddle gets solved
And you push me up to this

State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be

Emotional landscapes
They puzzle me
Then the riddle gets solved
And you push me up to this

State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be

State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
State of

State of
How beautiful
Emergency
Is where I want to be

State of emergency
How beautiful to be
State of emergency
Is where I want to be
State of emergency
How beautiful to be

Tudo Passa

Eu você e todos os encontros casuais
os ais e os hão de ser
e todos os casais também
olha, acho até que quem achou que nunca ia
esse ia se espantar de ver que o ódio e o amor
e até eu vou pra ver no que vai dar
a massa a moça
e até esse pra sempre

tudo passa

(Marcelo Camelo)

Maracaturama

Vem de fora
Vem de dentro
Bem forte
Bem lento

Vem apertada
Vem sozinha
Bem calada
E bem calminha

Lava a alma
Bem lavadinha
Lava o coração
Lava o amor
Não. O amor, não lava não

A tristeza lava e leva
A tristeza traz e molha
Tudo por dentro
Tudo por fora
Ela vem e nos carrega

(Projecto Fuga, com Fernanda Takai)

My Precious Thing

You're my precious thing
What would I do without you
Honestly, I wonder why
Thinking maybe you'd
Give up on me
Oh babe, I'd wanna die

You're my precious thing
What would I do without you
Saying it honestly, I wonder why
Thinking maybe you'd
Give up on me
Oh babe, I'd wanna die

This ain't just a love song
To make you come around
You where there to believe in me
When there was nothing, nobody
Oh God, I'm glad I had the chance to make it
Oh God, I'm glad I had the chance to make it right

You're my precious thing
What would I do without you
Saying it honestly, I wonder why
Thinking maybe you'd
Give up on me
Oh babe, I'd wanna die

I hope it's the right time
For in you've found
The love I needed to keep me going on strong,
on strong
It maybe the right time
To make you come around
You were there when I needed you
When I needed you most

Oh oh my precious thing
Oh yeah, all right
You keep me
You keep me going on
You keep me

What She Came For

I've got a question for ya
I've got a question for ya
Where'd you get your name from?
Where'd you get your name from?
I've got a question for you
Where do you see yourself in five minutes time?

With a life like that or a look like that
You make us all feel gauche
Like it's a smutty joke
But with a life like that or a root like that
You make us all just go la la la la

Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt
Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt

Whoa
You're what she came for

I've got a question for ya
Another question for ya
Oh do you feel the, oh do you feel the pressure
Why you wearing what you're wearing?
Where will your life be gone in five minutes time?

So say something stupid
You know that you'd love to

Whoa, look out
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
No question, no doubt
Whoa look out
You're what she came for
Knows what she came for
No question, no doubt

You're what she came for
You're what she came for
You're what she came for
