Тексты песен...

Стоит ли опубликовать на форуме тексты песен, которые звучали в сериале? Вопрос к обсуждению...

Лично я "ЗА" всеми конечностями! 1)Их (песни) можно учить и потом подпевать СDюшнику,петь в ванной, мурлыкать под нос на лекциях и т.д. 2)Можно переводить и соотносить текст и "визуалку" в сериях.

ещё как стоит!

Ну ладно, подготовлю топики...

Я - ЗА!!! Можно будет и обсудить! А еще права shadow петь можно (The Love Thieves - я уже выучила, щас сижу и подмурлыкиваю центру)!
В общем НА-А-А-АДО!!!

Torn
Rose Chronicles

slow motion of my heart
a drum for heaven's choir
i'm closer to the swelter
the shovel brings
the pound wants to escape with my life
oh release come soon
i've opened the gate- to where they suffocate light
the pound wants to escape with my life
oh release come soon
i've opened the gate now
it's colder than a funeral rain
now i'm frozen in more carved shame
the bullets through my shelter
hit the drum & my heart is the drum
choose, choose now, pound wants to escape with my life
oh please come soon i've opened up the gate
the pound the pound the pound, my heart's a drum

Blood Red
Rose Chronicles

take a knife and stab what already feels dead
and then make some wine from tears
that will fill the cup blood red
blood red
fatal overdose again, again
every laboured breath is now
crowded out by pain
and the downpour on the windshield
hits like bullets, not like rain
sucking all of what is left
the vampire barely gets fed
it's blood red
blood red

Revenge
Thrive
Use delusion, wait, and when the stars fly down
Catch a real shining, look what you will see
In the whirling wind from night end
You will draw the words of wisdom you'll need.
Peace. Love.
Through the world you're wheeling all your games
Beauty is not part of ecstasy
With the task, a memory near your hair
Call out the words you use readily
Love. Ecstasy.
This is, this is the hallowed ground
This is, this is the cold
This is revenge.
Whisper when your water's running deep
All the things you crave and cannot keep
This is, this is what you have done
This is, this is, this is the cold
This is, this is the hallowed ground
This is, this is, this is
This is revenge.
Watch the crowd; this is your love
Watch then stare around; watching her
This is, this is the hallowed ground
This is, this is the cold
This is, this is the hallowed ground
This is, this is, this is
This is, this is what you have done
This is the cold earth
This is, this is the hallowed ground
This is, this is, this is
This is revenge.

3 AM
Tristan Psionic

Never thought we'd see the light
I just want to be alone
Broken, shattered, splintered light
I just wanna be back home
Stickers plastered on the roof
To McDonald's on the road
Kissed a girl her name was Goo
Bit off more than you could chew
I bit off more than I could chew
Took you downtown I know
There are some things I wish I never knew.
(you didn't wanna go)
Never thought we'd see the light
I just want to be alone
Broken, shattered, splintered light
I just wanna be back home
You're up late again, it's three
Try again it's more like four
Phone rings again, you know it's me.
I'm too tired to clear the floor.
I'm too tired to do much more
Can't go on, what the hell
I can't rest, I crashed on the floor.

Secret
Tristan Psionic

I got a secret,
it sucks.
And I got a problem,
it sucks.
And I don't like the rain
when it's cold outside.
And It's been a long time
since I've sat down for a write.
And I just wanted someone
to talk to.
Damn my pen,
it's gonna have to do.
And I got a secret,
it really sucks.
I just wanted someone
to talk to.
Damn my pen,
it's out of ink again.

Still Waitin'
Big Sugar

Talk to me, baby
Come on and take my hand
Talk to me, baby
So I can understand
'Cause I can't go on living
Being your sometimes man
Find it in your heart
Mmmm, to treat me kind
Find it in your heart
Ooooh, to treat me kind
I know all along, darling
You're undecided in your mind
If you know that you don't want me
Why, oh why, don't you just say so?
If you know that you don't want me
Why, oh why, don't you just say so?
Oh, well, I have to have your answer
Or I will have to go
Go on...
Well, I know that you don't want me
You never did, and you never will
I know that you don't want me
You never did, and you never will
Now, I'm a fool to keep on waiting,
But I am waiting still
I am still waitin'...

Standing Around Crying
Big Sugar


(Your red light's on...)
Oh, babe
Look how you got me standing around crying
Oh, babe
Look how you got me standing around crying
Well, I know you don't love me, baby
But you're always resting on my mind
Oh, baby
I ain't gonna be riding around in my automobile
Oh, baby
I ain't gonna be riding around in my automobile
Well, you got so many men
I'm afraid that you may get me killed
Oh, baby
You ain't nothing like you used to be
Oh, baby
You ain't nothing like you used to be
Well, when I was loving you baby
You was sweet as an apple on the tree

All Dressed Up In San Francisco
Philosopher Kings

she's got spider web hair,
and a skin like see through jelly
with a porcelain stare
that moves the walls of my belly
cherubs glow
that lit a lamp gas nose
her eyes were full of hot wine
and her body was a rose
now, she moved like a liquid
through the boys of Mason City
had every gatling
gun-slinging soldier
every grease monkey, every
Walter Mitty
she finally settled on some
corn-husker
with cotton-seed teeth under a
diamond smile
dressed up for San Francisco
but held up in Mason City
for a while
now her man used to work
to make the corn belt grow
while she would dream of a city
with the soft heart of San Francisco
dream a quiet burrow
for a husband, child and wife
and poke another hole
into the hard American life
now San Francisco is no place
for a Mason City couple
you can get thrown into a turbine
and get lost in the shuffle
she keeps everything she owns
in a Saratoga trunk that's going
out of style
dressed up for San Francisco
but held up in Mason City for
a while

Philosopher Kings
All To Myself

I'd start with the boys that hang
at the pier
like bats in the night, get tangled
in your hair
I'd take away the weekend
shore leave lovers
that flood the ports with drunken
tales of far away
I'd take away the Eiffel tower
I'd take away the port of Spain
I take your yellow coat
no more romantic walks in the
pouring rain
then I'd make washboard, wind-
blown, sea-side, serenading, prep
school boys disappear
that flock in the summer like gulls to
the beach
and pick at your heart like the
garbage on the street
I'll take away all the things that make
you look away from me
I'd take away everything
then I'd have you all to myself
I'd take away the guy with the
monkey wrench smile
he'll steal your heart away and make
a Minnesota mile
like a corner store crook on a prison
break or a porno queen in a
party cake
I'd take away the Spanish steps
I'd take away the Golden Gate
I take away everything
just to have you all to myself
I never thought it'd get this bad
inside of me
I never thought that I'd be so
consumed with jealousy
I need you every night and every
day in bed
these thoughts keep spinning in
my head
then I'd make the big screen, battle-
scarred, bold-faced, leading man,
lone star heroes disappear
that fill your heart with thoughts of
being swept away
but that's a part a man like me could
never play
I'll take away all the things that make
you look away from me
I'd take away everything
just to have you all to myself

Jersey Girl
Holly Cole Trio
Tom Waits
I got no time for the corner boys
Down in the street making all that noise
Or the girls out on the avenue
'Cause tonight I wanna be with you
Tonight I'm gonna take that ride
Across the river to the Jersey side
Take my baby to the carnival
And I'll take her on all the rides
'Cause down the shore everything's all right
You and your baby on a Saturday night
You know all my dreams come true
When I'm walking down the street with you
Chorus:
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jersey girl
You know she thrills me with all her charms
When I'm wrapped up in my baby's arms
My little girl gives me everything
I know that some day she'll wear my ring
So don't bother me man I ain't got no time
I'm on my way to see that girl of mine
'Cause nothing matters in this whole wide world
When you're in love with a Jersey girl
(Chorus)
I see you on the street and you look so tired
I know that job you got leaves you so uninspired
When I come by to take you out to eat
You're lyin' all dressed up on the bed baby fast asleep
Go in the bathroom and put your makeup on
We're gonna take that little brat of yours and drop her off at your mom's
I know a place where the dancing's free
Now baby won't you come with me
'Cause down the shore everything's all right
You and your baby on a Saturday night
Nothing matters in this whole wide world
When you're in love with a Jersey girl

Evidence
Tara MaClean

Frightened of the shadow on the wall
I think it looks a bit too much like me
Search my life for evidence of truth
Can you hear me
Can you hear me now?
Terrified my tongue will now betray
All the lies that I'd been taught to say
Searched your eyes for evidence of love
Can you hear me
Can you hear me now?
Afraid to break the silence in the room
Disbelieving faces stare me down
Search the world for evidence of faith
Can you hear me
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear the child in tears
Whose innocence was stolen from her hands
Can you hold her in your arms
And tell her that you'll try to understand
When there's no way in hell you can
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me now?

Expression of Loneliness
Moonsocket - Eric Tripp

Expressions of loneliness are easy to find
Need not look further then your own mind
(Smokes of morn) further away
Closer you get you'll never find your way
Closer you get you'll never find your way

Hey Man Nice Shot
Filter

I wish I would've met you
now it's a little late
what you could've taught me
I could've saved some face
they think that your early ending
was all wrong
for the most part they're right
but look how they all got strong
that's why I say hey man nice shot
what a good shot man
a man
has gun
hey man
have fun
nice shot
now that the smokes gone
and the air is all clear
those who were right there
got a new kind of fear
you'd fight and you were right
but they were just to strong
they'd stick it in your face
and let you smell what they consider wrong
that's why I say hey man nice, nice shot
what a good shot man
a man
has gun
hey man
have fun
nice shot
I wish I would've met you
I wish I would've met you
I'd say
nice shot

In Your Life
Clove

You know I've tried to see if you should stay
I have to make you go away
To save us all
'Cause all in all, we've got different points of view
We're like different shads of blue
That are too intense
Hey don't be afraid, 'cause
you've got friends
You don't even realize
In your life.
You know I'm saying
Don't throw it all away
I wish that you could stay
Just not with me
But I am here I'm not so far away
Just say the word if you need me

News
Clove

I'm wrestling with my conscience
Putting up a fight
Going over in my head
Was I wrong or was I right?
'Cause being in the dark is a wondrous thing
It makes your mind all clear
Of all your senseless words and things
Going round and round
Did you want me to be a martyr
Well I've got news, yeah
I've got news
You really pushed my limits
Way over the line
I'm sick and tired of listening to you
Whine and whine and whine
Did you want me to be a martyr
Well I've got news, yeah
I've got news
And did you want me to be your scapegoat
Well I've got news, yeah
I've got news

Night of the King Snake
Big Rude Jake

There's a freight train on the Bad Lands that carries my baby to me
Through the dark lands of Wyoming just Rockin' my baby to sleep
There's an ill wind blowing, there's a thunder rumblin' down in the east
And there's a King Snake coiled up in the arms of an old pine tree
The King Snake says to baby, "Don't you know that I'm a jealous man?
And I would never let you leave me to wrangle alone in the sand.
You were never meant for roses, you were meant to know the wisdom of the fang
Take these thirty silver kisses and live with me in these bad lands."
And then the King Snake purrs as he slithers up close to her breast.
She feels a tug on her earlobes and a tingle creepin' 'round in her neck.
He says that you can make believe that this is what the fates intend,
As thirty silver kisses go slidin' down the back of her neck.
On the Night of the King Snake, time hangs in the seemy gloom.
And I was hanging 'round the station, I was waitin' on the twelve -two.
Well, the brakeman finally told me: "Don't you know that you been made a fool?
She love them thirty silver kisses. She don't love you."
Well, do you know what it means to love a woman with the King Snake Blues?
You can love her like no other man, and lift her up when no one else would.
Well, bang your head against the wall, it really makes no difference what you do;
She love them thirty silver kisses, she don't love you.
She ain't comini' back to you.

Howling
Morcheeba

Howling, how long?
Sounding, so calm
Pounding, so strong
Founding, so wrong
Chorus:
Howling
Howling
How long?
Strolling, so long
Lolling, some song
Firing, a gun
Darkness, has come
Chorus
Hanging, up high
Swinging, the sky
Cacti, still cry
Why do, we try?
Chorus
fades off

Last Playboy Interview
Merlin

My favorite book is TV Guide
My favorite band is no longer alive
I live with twenty machines
I wish I lived with twenty wives
If you're wondering where the fuzz is...
And you're wondering where the raps are...
Then you never really knew me
How can you rate me only one star?
I never eat red meat at all
I stay away from crowded malls
My indie label's called Channel three
Critics like you get the albums for free
But you're still wondering where the fuzz is
I wrote songs for a few pop groups
I play the drums not just sample loops
When I kick back I drink herbal tea
But that's now what you want to know about me
No
You're wondering where the fuzz is

Beyond The Invisible
Enigma

I look into the mirror
See myself, I'm over me
I need space for my desires
Have to dive into my fantasies
I know as soon as I'll arrive
Everything is possible
Cause no one has to hide
Beyond the invisible
Close your eyes
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality

Big Mistake
Chainsuck

She don't see his roving eye
It never roves when it's on her
Her friends all look the other way
And get together to confer
Someday he might spin around
To find his only one
Chorus:
I tightened all the knots 'till they were strong
And gave away the heart where I belong
I tightened all the knots now they're too strong
I wish they would break
She don't notice that he greets
Some objects like they have no end
He's walking tall and acting smart
To all of his uneasy friends
He might put that aura down
When it's no longer fun
Chorus
Lonely's such a big mistake
If it's the only one you ever make
Lonely's just a big mistake
Chorus (repeat)

Temple
Beverly Klass

We're pure intangible love
You asked what I found in you
I burn inside myself
While the tempest returns
It's been years I would say
The night has lived too long
I will find a way
We'll stand in the sun

Where all our love resides
Where the desonance seems to die
I will meet you there
We'll stand together
Where the daylight falls and fades
Your love lives in the sun
I will pass your way
This stands forever

You found eternity
This could shatter your heart
The reflection of your soul
Was a vision of me
Take all that I could be
Take all I should be
May faith lead your way
Did you know it was me

Where all our love resides
Where the desonance seems to die
I will meet you there
We'll stand together
Where the daylight falls and fades
Your love lives in the sun
I will pass your way
This stands forever

Red
Sister Machine Gun

The devil's eating me inside I feel like I died
nothing is as nothin' seems makes me want to scream
Don't know how I'll make it through this night I'll never be all right
I don't know what you want me to do it ain't nothin' new
I don't want to cause you pain but I'm feeling quite insane and I got no where to go
Baby don't you know way down deep inside of me is the way things got to be
I just got to let you know I got to let you know
I don't think that I can standa no more of what I left you for
I let my instincts lead the way there ain't no better way I know that nothing stays the same but who else can I blame
I don't know what you want me to be it's nothin' I can see
I don't want to cause you pain but I'm feeling quite insane and I got no where to go
Baby don't you know way down deep inside of me is the way things got to be
I just got to let you know I got to let you know.... REPEAT (1 more time)

Number One Crush
Garbage

I would die for you, I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel ya by my side
To know that you're mine
I would cry for you, I would cry for you
I would wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear
I would pray for you, I would pray for you
I would sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you
See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time I'm talkin'
You won't believe in me
And I will never be ignored
I would burn for you, feel pain for you
I would twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart
I would lie for you, beg and steal for you
I would crawl on hands and knees until ya see
You're just like me
Violate all the love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You won't believe in me
And I can never be ignored
I would die for you
I would kill you
I would steal for you
I'd do time for you
I would wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sail ships for you
To be close to you
To be part of you
Cuz I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you.

Tape Loop
Morcheeba

Tape loop keeps on turning round forever
Patience love is coming round for your pleasure
Wait now no use tryin' a pull there's no need
People go against the grain with their greed
(chorus)
I've been there before it aint going to work no more
I've been there before it aint going to work no more
Focus you're my will be strong no distractions
So cup wisdom all year long and then take action
(chorus repeat 3 times)

Hanging On a Curtain
Morphine

Hanging on a curtain...curtain, curtain
swinging like a clock, clock, clock
Big hand on the seven, seven, seven
the little hand on top top top
You said you like to hear me talk, talk
You told me not to stop, You told me not to stop
You said you like to hear me talk, talk
You told me not to stop, You told me not to stop
Little red feet with big blue toes,
let me put my hands inside your clothes
Little red feet with big blue toes,
let me put my hands inside your clothes
Cute button like pointy little teeth
Oh...Don't bite please! Don't bite please.
Cute button like pointy little teeth
Oh...Don't bite please!
Little red feet with big blue toes,
let me put my hands inside your clothes
Hanging on a curtain...curtain, curtain
swinging like a clock, clock, clock
Big hand on the seven, seven, seven
the little hand on top top top
You said you like to hear me talk, talk
You told me not to stop, You told me not to stop
From the jacket:
Hanging on a curtain swinging like a clock
Big hand on the seven
the little hand on top
You said you like to hear me talk
You told me not to stop
Little red feet with big blue toes,
let me put my hands inside your clothes
Cute button like pointy little teeth
Don't bite please!

Woman
In The Nursery

(English translation following)
Desir perdu
Un nom connu
J'ai jamais vu
Pourquoi
Rien de femme
L'heure de l'aubade
La Bouche qui danse
Le Feu
Toujours de l'homme
La nuit descend
Les enfants chantent
Comme moi
L'hiver se cache
Un reve vivace
Et si je tombe
Les papillons
Le monde qui crie
La vie
Ses bras m'athrapent
Fantomes echappent
La froide qui jete
Et taime la tete
Sans tes paroles
La passion roule rail
WOMAN
Lost desire
A name I've known
I've never seen...
Why?
And if I fall
The butterflies
A crying world
The life
Nothing of Woman
The dawning hour
The dancing mouth
The fire
Always of Man
Night descends
Children sing
Like me
A vivid dream
Winter hides
And if I fall
The butterflies
crying world
The life
His arms enfold me
Ghosts escape
The jumping cold
Without your words
Passion unfurls
Without my prayer

The Love Thieves
Depeche Mode

Oh the tears that you weep
for the poor tortured souls
who fall at your feet
with their love begging bowls
all the clerks and the tailors
the sharks and the sailors
all good at the trades
but they'll always be failures
Alms for the poor
for the wretched disciples
and the love that they swore
with their hearts on the bible
beseeching the honour
to sit at your table
and feast on your holiness
as long as they're able
Love needs its martyrs
needs its sacrifices
they live for your beauty
and pay for their vices
love will be the death of
my lonely soul brothers
but their spirit shall live on in
the hearts of all lovers
You're holding court
with your lips and your smile
your body's a halo
their minds are on trial
sure as adam is eve
sure as jonah turned whaler
they're crooked love thieves
and you are their jailor
Love needs its martyrs
needs its sacrifices
they live for your beauty
and pay for their vices
love will be the death of
my lonely soul brothers
but their spirit shall live on in
the hearts of all lovers.

Working For The Man
PJ Harvey

in the night i look for love
endless strength from the man above
god of piston, god of steel
god is here behind the wheel
i'm just working
for the man
pretty things get in my car
take them flying, it's not far
take in handsome, take in me
look good in my steel machine
i'm just working
for the man
don't you know yet who i am
working harder for the man
go around i'm doing good
get my strength from the man above
i'm just working
for the man
i'm just doing
what i can
go around i'm doing good
go around i'm doing good
go around i'm doing good
go around i'm doing good
go around i'm doing good
go around i'm doing good

Death by Moonlight
Rhea Obsession

Breathe, follow my command
Believe, that is in your hands
Grieve, as death by moon is slow

I am the white-tailed dove
Who understands
You are the reason
I harness these commands

Breathe the air while you still can
Leave all tomorrow's plans
Here, the calm before the storm
Heed the message of the Dawn

I am the wind and rain
I the summer snow
You are the glistening
in the afterglow

I follow patiently
I watch destruction grow
I listen for the signs
Of moonlight to show me
I am I am I am

Feel the earth tremble at night
We believe that we're alright
We gather for the storm
We will die before we're born

I am the white-tailed dove
Who understands
You are the reason
I harness these commands

Burn
Sister Machine Gun


I look at you and then I see your fire
And I think about desire
Yes I think about desire
Tell me things that you try to hide
Now I'm burnin' up inside
Oh, now I'm burnin' up inside
When I think about the first time
That I saw your face
I've never felt this way
No I never felt this way
Now I'm thinkin' that you feel the same
And I feel this anyway
And I get down on my knees and pray
CHORUS:
You're like a burning flame
And I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same
You're like a burning flame
And I'll never be the same
No, I'll never be the same
What kind of fool am I?
To want your body next to mine
I want your body next to mine
I'll need you anytime
And I'm breakin' down inside
Oh no, I'm breakin' down inside
You come to me with all your little fantasies
I've never had before
No I never had before
And now I'm livin' in my own reality
'cause all the things you did to me
All the things you did to me
CHORUS x 3

Do What You Have To Do
Sarah McLachlan

What ravages of spirit
Conjured this temptuous rage
Created you a monster
Broken by the rules of love
And fate has lead you through it
You do what you have to do
(2 times)
And I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go

Every moment marked with apparitions of your soul
However swiftly moving
Trying to escape this desire
The yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
(2 times)

And I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go
The glowing ember
Burning hot
And burning slow
Deep within I'm shaken by the violence of existing
For only you

I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
(2 times)
And I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go

She burns friends like a piece of wood
And she's jealous of me because she never could
Hold herself up without a spine
And she'll look me up when she's doing fine
Because the rage it burns like Chinese torture
She's just someone's favourite daughter
Spoilt and ugly as she willingly slaughters
Friends and enemies they're all the same
They'll burn her name
And crush her fame
She'll break a promise as a matter of course
Because she thinks it's fun to have no remorse
She gets what she wants and then walks away
And she doesn't give a fuck what you might say
Because it cuts her up like Irish mortar
Mother's pride is what we taught her
Soiled and petty as we happily taunt her
Friend or enemy we're all to blame
{She'll burn us bad
She'll flaunt her flame
She'll make us remember, remember her name}
If she sits still like she knows she could
She could win this game and be the queen for good
Save herself up for the cream of the crop
Then she'll look us up when she's ready to stop
Because the rage it burns like Chinese torture
She's just someone's favourite daughter
Spoilt and ugly as she willingly slaughters
Friends and enemies are all that came
To burn her name
Crush her flame
We're all to blame

Skin Against Skin (featuring Deborah Anderson)
DJ Krush

The sun moves high above
Watching below all that moves so fast
Plus taking on a different game
A future that was built to last
I see your face light up my screen
You say hello but I can't
Hold you
Does this all feel somewhat for real with what no limits to us,
We can do
(chorus)
We're making such big steps
It's got me in a spin
Are we aiming too high
Of wanting to feel your skin against my skin, my skin, my skin
Neon lights are everywhere
Lighting up the crowded streets
It brightens up my floating bed
Where I lay myself to sleep
Did you receive the kiss I sent today
Up on the box in Time Square?
How I love the once and yesterday before it vanished into thin air
(chorus)
You're never really here
This is all a big mistake
My heart is feeling cold
I don't want to bake it

Tangent
Beth Orton

Lost myself in a tangent of words,
Can't decide what I've seen or heard,
Can not sleep for counting sheep,
How long does this river run deep,
How long does this river run deep.
Building a map in order to find,
What's not lost but left behind,
My instinct got bruised,
But I still see,
I was a victim I'll be no casualty.
Just like coming home,
Just like coming home,
Just like coming home,
It was just like coming home,
Coming home.
He said that you weave deadly tricks,
Come right back to the worldly hicks,
Stare it cold in dull surprise,
Spread evil to hell in every tear you cried,
Every tear you cried.
Building a map in order to find,
What's not lost but left behind,
I was a victim I'll be no casualty.
Just like coming home,
Just like coming home,
Just like coming home,
Could be just like coming home,
Coming home.
Cut off my toes to spite my feet,
Drank your poison
Didn't taste too sweet,
Saw that heaven's in my mind,
It's there for me to find,
It's there for me to find.

Les Bourgeois (The Middle Class)
French, then English version next

Le coeur bien au chaud
Les yeux dans la biиre
Chez la grosse Adrienne de Montalant
Avec l'ami Jojo
Et avec l'ami Pierre
On allait boire nos vingt ans
Jojo se prenait pour Voltaire
Et Pierre pour Casanova
Et moi moi qui йtais le plus fier
Moi moi je me prenais pour moi
Et quand vers minuit passaient les notaires
Qui sortaient de l'hфtel "Des Trois Faisans"
On leur montrait notre cul et nos bonnes maniиres
En leur chantant
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient bкte
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient
Le coeur bien au chaud
Les yeux dans la biиre
Chez la grosse Adrienne de Montalant
Avec l'ami Jojo
Et avec l'ami Pierre
On allait brыler nos vingt ans
Voltaire dansait comme un vicaire
Et Casanova n'osait pas
Et moi moi qui restais le plus fier
Moi j'йtais presque aussi saoul que moi
Et quand vers minuit passaint les notaires
Qui sortaient de l'hфtel "Des Trois Faisans"
On leur montrait notre cul et nos bonnes maniиres
En leur chantant
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient bкte
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient
Le coeur au repos
Les yeux bien sur terre
Au bar de l'hфtel "Des Trois Faisans"
Avec Maоtre Jojo
Et avec Maоtre Pierre
Entre notaires on passe le temps
Jojo parle de Voltaire
Et Pierre de Casanova
Et moi moi moi qui suis restй le plus fier
Moi moi je parle encore de moi
Et c'est en sortant vers minuit Monsieur l' Comissaire
Que tous les soirs de chez la Montalant
De jeunes "peigne-culs" nous montrent leur derriиre
En nous chantant
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient bкte
Disent-ils Monsieur le comissaire
Les bourgeois
Plus зa devient vieux plus зa devient...

THE MIDDLE CLASS

Your heart feels so right
Your eyes swim in the beer
Where the barroom lights are hung
And with your friend Jojo
And with your friend Pierre
You drink a toast to being young
Jojo thinks he's Voltaire
And Pierre, Casanova
And me who proudly did not care
Me, I was a lover
And at midnight we watched the
Lawyers pass
Coming out of hotels which had real class
We showed them our good manners
And we showed them our ass
And, oh, how we sang
The middle class are just like pigs
The older they get, the dumber they get
The middle class are just like pigs
The fatter they get, the less they regret
Your heart feels so right
Your eyes swim in the beer
Where the barroom lights are hung
And with your friend Jojo
And with your friend Pierre
Holding on to being young
Voltaire danced like a vicar
Casanova, he was too stout
And me who proudly did not care
Me, I drank till I passed out
And at midnight
We watched the salesmen pass
Coming out of hotels which had real class
We showed them our good manners
And we showed them our ass
And, oh, how we sang
The middle class are just like pigs
The older they get, the dumber they get
The middle class are just like pigs
The fatter they get, the less they regret
But your heart slows down
Your eyes do not flash
The hotel bartender sings our praise
Jojo's no clown
Pierre pays in cash
Among the bookkeepers we pass our days
Jojo now speaks of Voltaire
Casanova's just a book on the shelf
And, me, I proudly do not care
Me, I talk only of myself
And everybody knows
That we've got real class
There is not a night that we can pass
Those lousy kids
Who always show us their ass
And, oh, how they sing
The middle class are just like pigs
The older they get, the dumber they get
The middle class are just like pigs
The fatter they get, the less they regret

Fire and Roses
Mimi Goese

Hold tight if I had only known it could rain inside
Keel over take a stand trying to keep my head on my shoulders
Over flow under tow trying to keep my head above water
Believe me I'm a fighter 'til the end look into my eye
It's all on fire my life needs fire I want roses
Strewn at my feet
Moving in moving out the current pulls me
Stay buoyant
I tumble doing deep-sea cartwheels
Outside it's dark I catch my breath and scream scream
It's all on fire my life needs fire I want roses
Strewn at my feet
It's all on fire my life needs fire I want roses
Strewn at my feet
Soundlessly I fade away
I sail I float far away
A thousand clues and second thoughts
Lie deep in the belly of my heart
If I listen so close
It's all on fire my life needs fire I want roses
Meanwhile I float on the sea sea yeah sea
Moving in moving out
Outside it's dark again
Still I realize what a fine line you walk along
Tightroping between sink or swim or fall or stand
I sit here I stare and still I see it's raining
Hard to say hard to see
Hard to know hard to tell
It's raining

Life In Mono
Mono

The stranger sang a theme
From someone else's dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can't seem to recall
When you came along
Ingenue
Ingenue
I just don't know what to do
The tree-lined avenue
Begins to fade from view
Drowning past regrets
In tea and cigarettes
But I can't seem to forget
When you came along
Ingenue
Ingenue
I just don't know what to do
Ingenue
I just don't know what to do
Ingenue
I just don't know what to do
Ingenue
I just don't know what to do
Ingenue (fade out)

Fluke
Absurd

king kong, in cannes, on a date with spiderman,
dan dare's sitting there, scared by the killerteddy bears,
down town, mini mouse is slippin micky's in the famous grouse,
while big bird spreads the word,
anybody with a heart votes love.
judge dredd, found dead, face down in snoopy's bed,
outside, tweetie pie's, getting itchy on more supplies,
meanwhile, snow white getting ready for work tonight,
turning tricks with crystal tips,
trying to make the best of its absurd.
puppy dogs and pussy cats in suspect suicide attacks,
captain kirk from planet earth, fights it out with papa smurf,
some phony little ponies, preying on the old and lonely,
making friends, robbing them, the x men taught them everything.
betty boop, tired of life, took vows, became a bride of christ,
while tin tin's been playing him at caesar's palace live on ice,
babar kumbayahs with the mighty morphin' movie stars,
as big bird spreads the word,
anybody with a heart votes Love.

Fear and Love
Morcheeba

We always have a choice
Or at least I think we do
We can always use our voice
I thought this to be true
We can live in fear
Or extend our selves to love
We can fall below
Or lift our selves above
Fear can stop your loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
But it's not always that clear
I always try so hard
To share my self around
But now I'm closing up again
Drilling through the ground
Fear can stop your loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
But it's not always that clear
I'd love to give my self away
But I find it hard to trust
I've got no map to find my way
Amongst these clouds of dust
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop your loving
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop your loving
But it's not always that clear X4

Silicone
Mono

So many times I try to make you understand
You never tried to see behind my smile
If I didn't know you like I do
I'd get you into the secret in me
Just because I'm good at fooling you
When no one's around I walk in your shoes
I'm smiling, while lying to you
I'm smiling, while lying to you
If you only knew
I always try to hide behind a painted smile
So many tears the public never see
If I didn't know you like I do
I'll get you into the secret in me
Just because I'm good at fooling you
When no one's around I walk in your shoes
I'm smiling, while lying to you
I'm smiling, while lying to you
When it always seems true(X4)

I've got the understanding of a 4-year ld
I've got the piece of mind of a killer soul
I've got the rationale of a New York cop
I've got the patience of a chopping block yeah

I've got the accumend of a season broke
I've got the lack of say of a billion souls

I've got the comprehension of a world unaware yeah

laid down my back I can't sleep cause I'm falling
eyes in my teeth I can't see cause I'm eating
head full of noise I can't think cause it's crushing
back on my feet like a freight train I'm coming

Superheroes
Esthero


Stay awhile longer sweet tongue of fur and feather
There is a white burst
Waiting for you here...
Between the superheroes - and the electric blanket is warm

I could be sweet
I could be young and fresh
If I weren't so old and used
and wet and wet, I am wet

I try not to ruin the moment
Tell me all your secrets and your torments
You're delicious, you're delicious...
Send me on a quest for lullabies - and more

What would it take for you to see
What I have got?
I've got more than you know
Open your eyes, I can not be - what I am not

I'm not what I used to be, I'm not what
I'm not what I used to be, and I
I don't know myself - from anybody else
I'm not what I used to be, I'm not what
I'm not what I used to be, and I
You don't know what you have done
My frame is here but the mind is gone - gone away

So stay awhile longer sweet tongue of fur and feather
Don't got the wine, right?
I've been waiting for you here

I'm not who I used to be
Bigger and better and faster and wetter
And bigger and better and faster and better


Gentle Rain
Diane Krall


We both are lost
and alone in the world
Walk with me
in the gentle rain
Don't be afraid, I've a hand
for your hand and I
will be your love for a while

I feel your tears as they fall
on my cheek
They are warm like gentle rain
Come little one you have me in the
world and our love will be sweet
very sweet

Our love will
Be sweet very sad
Very sweet like gentle rain
Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain


Gun
Gus Gus

You've got to find yourself a place to stay anyway
'Cause I ain't stayin' around anymore, no way
Now you'd better leave
Cause I'm gonna find
Myself another
Take that gun blow your mind take that gun
Go ahead and make my day
You got to find another piece of wax anyway
'Cause I think it's over now it melted down
Just the other day
Take that gun blow your mind take that gun
Go ahead and make my day
Take that gun blow your mind take that gun


Number One Crush
Garbage

.
I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fears

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time that I'm talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all the love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I will wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sink ships for you
To be close to you
To be part of you
Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you
