Sanat

[Jääkoneenkuljettaja]

Kovasti on Pearl Jam päässyt täälläkin otsikoihin...
Mutta tässäpä muutama:

Electric Six - Gaybar

Girl!
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.

Let's start a war, start a nuclear war,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow!
At the gay bar.
Now Tell me do ya?, but do ya have any money?
I wanna spend all your money,
at the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.

I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow!

You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Yeah! you're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Superstar.
Super, super, superstar


Pearl Jam - Rearviewmirror

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged, united by fear
S'pose to endure what I could not forgive...

I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Fist on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive

Saw things (4x)
Clearer (2x)
Once you, were in my...Rearview mirror...

I gather speed from you fucking with me
Once and for all I'm far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...hey...

Saw things so much clearer }
Once you, once you... } (3x)
Rearview mirror }

Saw things so much clearer
Once you...oh yeah...


Pantera - Cemetary Gates

The reverend he turned to me
Without a tear in his eyes
It's nothing new for him to see
I didn't ask him why
I will remember
The love our souls had
Sworn to make
Now I watch the falling rain
All my mind can see
Now is your (face)

Well I guess
You took my mouth
I gave it all away
Like the birth of a
New-found joy
This love would end in rage
And when she died
I couldn't cry
The pride within my soul
You left me incomplete
Memories now unfold.

Believe the word
I will unlock my door
And pass the
Cemetery gates

Sometimes when I'm alone
I wonder aloud
If you're watching over me
Some place far abound
I must reverse my life
I can't live in the past
Then set my soul free

Belong to me at last
Through all those
Complex years
I thought I was alone

I didn't care to look around
And make this world my own
And when she died
I should've cried and spared myself some pain...
Left me incomplete
All alone as the memories still remain

The way we were
The chance to save my soul
And my concern is now in vain
Believe the word
I will unlock my door
And pass the cemetery gates

Tuollaiset kolme, tuli tähän hätään.

I Am A Town
(Mary Chapin Carpenter)

I'm a town in Carolina, I'm a detour on a ride
For a phone call and a soda, I'm a blur from the driver's side
I'm the last gas for an hour if you're going twenty-five
I am Texaco and tobacco, I am dust you leave behind

I am peaches in September, and corn from a roadside stall
I'm the language of the natives, I'm a cadence and a drawl
I'm the pines behind the graveyard, and the cool beneath their shade, where the boys have left their beer cans
I am weeds between the graves.

My porches sag and lean with old black men and children
Their sleep is filled with dreams, I never can fulfill them
I am a town.

I am a church beside the highway where the ditches never drain
I'm a Baptist like my daddy, and Jesus knows my name
I am memory and stillness, I am lonely in old age; I am not your destination
I am clinging to my ways
I am a town.

I'm a town in Carolina, I am billboards in the fields
I'm an old truck up on cinder blocks, missing all my wheels
I am Pabst Blue Ribbon, American, and "Southern Serves the South"
I am tucked behind the Jaycees sign, on the rural route
I am a town
I am a town
I am a town
Southbound.

 

[Pikku Myy]

Here comes the sun (George Harrison)

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it’s all right

Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it’s all right
It’s all right

 

[Padis]

I can't tolerate your sadness
cause it's me you're drowning
I won't allow any happiness
'cause everytime you laugh, I feel so guilty

"I blame the needs that you feed
'cause selfish eyes would not see"

Am I forced to have any regret?
I've become the lie, beautiful and free
In my righteous own mind
I adore and preach the insanity you gave

Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
No need for sympathy, the misery that is me
No need for sympathy, it's only for the weak
On bleeding knees I accept my fate

I've lost the ability to paint the clouds
'cause it's me you're draining
I'm stuck in this slow-motion dark day
cause everytime you run, I fall behind

"Far away is a place where I hide
the truth that have to be locked away"

And so I hear my voice again
The tale of the bitter man, here I am
Shake the silence and hear what it says
The tranquil pride that become the lie


Niin totta. Hajoan ja....

 

[banaaninviljelijä]

Metallicaa

..Take a look to the sky, just before you die. It's the last time you will..

Toimii näin vähemmän uskovaiselle

 

[tuuski]

EI mukataiteelliselle lyriikalle

Häiriköt - Käsikranu

Mä en pidä sinusta
Sä et pidä minusta
Mä en pidä sinusta
Saat käsikranusta



Häiriköt - Liimaa liimaa

Bostik A kolmosta ostin rautakaupasta
Bostik A kolmosta vedän Valtsun kassista
Bostik A kolmosta ostin rautakaupasta
Bostik A kolmosta vedän Valtsun kassista

Lisää liimaa
Lisää lisää
Liimaa liimaa

Yllä esitettynä siis kyseisten biisien lyriikat kokonaisuudessaan, toimii, lisää.

 

[Lukkoseppä]

U2 Sometimes you can't make it on your own

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I...that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need...I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me - when - I -
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me...

Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone...

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own


Monta kertaa on radiossa tämäkin biisi soinut, sen enempää mitään ajatuksia herättämättä. Tänään kuitenkin mietin että mitähän siinä sanotaan ja hyvältähän se kuulosti tai aidolta ainakin. Aikast hyvä biisi kaikin puolin.

[Mielikuvitushahmo]

Leevi and the leavings - Elina, mitä mä teen

Ellu oli vaarikassa
töissä siinä kahvilassa
jonka takahuoneessa jonkin aikaa joskus asuttiin

Itse kun en saanut töitä
yhdessä me öitä valvottiin
Mä en tiedä mitä teen
on kai pakko laittaa lapset laitokseen

Eikö elämässä riitä mikään
Eikö hellittäisi hetkeksikään mieletön kierre
Mekin yritimme uskotella
että hankkisimme sähköhellan jääkaapin viereen

Kun Ellu aina töissä itki
se sai sitten ne loparitkin
ja pankkiautomaatin eteisessä me öisin paleltiin
Se taisi olla taas raskaanakin
mä jostain sille takin varastin
Mä en tiedä mitä teen
olosuhteet minut saivat vangikseen

Eikö elämässä riitä mikään
Eikö hellittäisi hetkeksikään jatkuva paine
Kuinka usein täällä turpiin saakaan
Kuinka nopeasti kaikkoaakaan rahat ja maine

Kun Ellu jäi sen taksin alle
joka kääntyessään vasemmalle
ei suuntamerkkiä näyttänykään, vaikka väitti niin
Ne oli vaatimattomat hautajaiset
itse samanlaiset tahtoisin
Mä en tiedä mitä teen
olen nyt jo turtunut tuskan tunteeseen

Eikö elämässä riitä mikään
ei hellittäisi hetkeksikään mieletön kierre
Mekin yritimme uskotella
että hankkisimme sähköhellan jääkaapin viereen

Eikö elämässä riitä mikään
eikö hellittäisi hetkeksikään jatkuva paine
Kuinka usein täällä turpiin saakaan
Kuinka nopeasti kaikkoaakaan
rahat ja maine

Elina, mitä mä teen

 

[Koirapoika]

Cash ja Manics

Johnny Cash vainaan esittämä irkkukappale Danny Boy tuppaa
herkistämään entisestään tämmöisen herkän jompen, hieno
esitys. Jos vaan suinkaan mahdollista niin tämän voisi soittaa
sitten kun minulla on ne monttubileet. Tässä on komeat urut,
löytyy American IV: The Man Comes Around-levyltä.

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.

And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.

And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.

I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.


Kevennykseksi Manic Street Preachers orkesterin Faster kappaleen
"alkujuonto," loppukappalekin svengaa kuin hirvi.

I hate purity
Hate goodness
I don't want virtue to exist anywhere
I want everyone corrupt

 

[E]

Jostain syystä Zen Cafén lyyrikat iskevät itseeni erittäinkin vahvasti. Myös Sir Elwoodin hiljaisten värien kappaleissa on jotain sellaista, joka pistää ajattelemaan.

Esimerkkinä voisin mainita ehkä kaikkien aikojen parhaan nykyaikaisen mieskuvauksen (vaikka vanha kappale jo onkin), elikäs Taxin.

Mä en usko rakkauteen
Ja mä en tahdo kuulla
Että sinä uskot niin
Ja mä en tahdo luulla
Että tämä kestäisi
no viikon taikka kaksi
Mä en tahdo enempää
Siis tilaa jo se taksi

Minä olen tehnyt tätä
Useamman vuoden
Tullut kotiin perjantaisin
Mukanani tuoden
Aina uuden naisen vaikka
Juuri olen saanut
Mielestäni aikaisemman
Jonka olen maannut

Yhtä lailla säälittävä
Olen niin kuin muutkin
Yksinäinen jos et tuu
Ja jos sä sitten tuutkin
Olen sulle kohtelias
Mutta vain sen verran
Että saan sut sänkyyni
Tämän yhden kerran

Tilaa jo se taksi

Mä en usko ikuisuuteen
Minä uskon hetkeen
Uskon että naisiin tulis
Suhtautuu kuin retkeen
Enkä usko sinuunkaan
Kuin viikon taikka kaksi
Mä en tahdo enempää
Siis tilaa jo se taksi

Yhtä lailla säälittävä
Olen niin kuin muutkin
Yksinäinen jos et tuu
Ja jos sä sitten tuutkin

Tilaa jo se taksi
Tilaa jo se taksi

 

[stouni]

Näitä on monia mitkä iskevät kun kuuntelee, tässä muutamia:

Scorpions - Still loving you

Time, it needs time
To win back your love again.
I will be there, I will be there.

Love, only love
Can bring back your love someday.
I will be there, I will be there.

Fight, babe, I'll fight
To win back your love again.
I will be there, I will be there.

Love, only love
Can break down the walls someday.
I will be there, I will be there.

If we'd go again
All the way from the start,
I would try to change
The things that killed our love.

Your pride has build a wall, so strong
That I can't get through.
Is there really no chance
To start once again?
I'm loving you.

Try, baby try
To trust in my love again.
I will be there, I will be there.

Love, your love
Just shouldn't be thrown away.
I will be there, I will be there.

If we'd go again
All the way from the start,
I would try to change
The things that killed our love.

Your pride has build a wall, so strong
That I can't get through.
Is there really no chance
To start once again?

If we'd go again
All the way from the start,
I would try to change
The things that killed our love.

Yes I've hurt your pride, and I know
What you've been through.
You should give me a chance
This can't be the end.

I'm still loving you.
I'm still loving you,
I need your love.
I'm still loving you.
Still loving you, baby.

Lumo - Onnelliset

En karkaa tänä aamuna sun viereltä
Ei herätä mua aamushow seitsemältä
Annetaan kukon kiekua
Ja muiden seistä ruuhkissa

Ei paina meitä tänään duuni eikä stressi
Ei kilju pomo, asiakas oikeessa on
Annetaan muiden rehkiä
On mellä jotain tärkeempää

Onnelliset peiton alla eivät nouse aikaisin
Onnelliset peiton alla eivät vastaa viesteihin
Onnelliset peiton alla toisiltaan saavat kaiken
Onnelliset (onnelliset) ovat vapaat

Sä taidat olla aika hyvällä päällä
Ei tarvi koetella kepillä jäätä
Annetaan kellon raksuttaa
Ei meitä aika kiinnosta

Onnelliset peiton alla eivät nouse aikaisin
Onnelliset peiton alla eivät vastaa viesteihin
Onnelliset peiton alla toisiltaan saavat kaiken
Onnelliset, onnelliset

Ei vastata, ei soiteta, ei puhuta x2

Onnelliset peiton alla eivät nouse aikaisin
Onnelliset peiton alla eivät vastaa viesteihin
Onnelliset peiton alla toisiltaan saavat kaiken
Onnelliset (onnelliset) ovat vapaat

[BBT]

Pretty Maids biisin Clay sanat kuvastavat aika tarkkaan tämänhetkisiä fiiliksiä...

Clay

I've been drifting around this world a stranger
Been lost in empty space
I've been reaching out to find my saving grace
And I've lived a life of no direction
I've walked the endless mile
I was down and out until I met you child

I want you to take me hold me
Shape me as you please
Want you to love me
I'm down on bended knees
I will be clay inside your hands
I long for your embrace
Let the light of love
Shine upon my face

I've been tangled up in disillusion
Been stuck inside this shell
I was blind to anything around myself
And I've been tied up in this no mans land
This empty wilderness
Found the kiss of life in the fire from your breath

I want you to take me hold me...

And finally found that my destiny
Didn't crash on tireless waves
Now that love has been blessing me
I'm unchained

I want you to take me hold me...

 

[Poison]

Kotiteollisuus - Satu peikoista

Toisiinsa kietoutuneina
he kulkevat metsän halki
heille tuntemattoman,
pienille loputtoman

Rukka-Peikko Takkutukka
ja Heikko-Peikko Pelokas
molemmat niin urheina ovat
toistensa tukena

Mitä puiden takana heitä odottikaan?
Niin kaunis kukka, jota ei osaa sanoin kuvailla
sen tahdoi itselleen Rukka, pikku takkutukka

Lyijynraskaita
jalkojaan ei tunne kumpikaan
Ei maailmaa, ympärillä pelkkää harhaa

Halki jäätyneen maan
he kulkevat käsikkäin,
katsomatta toisiaan,
sanomatta sanaakaan

Jään pinnasta peilasivat
uurtuneita kasvojaan,
silmät niin vettyneet ovat
isäntiinsä pettyneet

Se kukka kuoli ja Takkutukan kyyneliin
hukkui Heikko-Peikko
Niin se vain menee, ei aina käykään niin,
kuten toivoi Rukka, pikku takkutukka

Sormet vieraat soittavat
tätä soitinta
kuoleman sormet,
kylmät ja kankeat

Astun sisään portista,
vieras maailma
avautuu sen takaa,
maisemat ankeat

Nyt sanat on sanottu,
laulut on laulettu,
aamun koittaessa
ilta jo hämärtää

Kun hukun itkuuni
toivon, että jää
edes kauniin kukan nimi
tänne elämään

 

[M10]

Tähän voin samaistua:

Villi veikkaus, että Vilkkumaijaa. En tiijä, kaveri lähetti...

AUTA MUA

Kun baaritiski
ja jenkkiviski
mun kyyneleitäni poimii
niin tietävät Sanna ja Reino
ja Gloria Gaynor
että miten mun pitäisi toimii

Ne sanoo hei, sä oot upee nainen
sä pystyt mihin vaan
leikkaa erilainen tukka, mene Brasiliaan
maalaa taulu tai tee laulu
siitä miten et ottais
sitä takaisin vaik se haluais

Hei rakas auta mua
tule takaisin ja auta mua
mä vihaan jokaista paitsi sua
pidä kii ja sano että tää paranee
Mä niin haluaisin hautautua
pois maailmasta, auta mua
täällä vain idiootit neuvoo mua
enkä ilman sua mä millään mitään tee

Ja sitten Sanna suuttuu
sanoo tän pitää muuttuu
joskus hyljätään jokainen
ja vanhaan ei ole paluuta
pian sullei oo muuta
kuin arveluttava maine

Ne sanoo hei, sä oot nuori vielä
sä löydät jonkun muun
joku jossain siellä
vie sut seikkailuun
itses voita, älä soita sille
älä itke vastaajaan
kato vahvana tulevaan

 

[Fanduli]

Silmäkulmia kostuttava biisi..

Shania Twain & Mutt Lange:

I Ain´t Goin´ Down

I'm gonna hold on
'cause what I believe in is so strong
No matter how long, no one can tell me I'm wrong
I ain't goin' down

I had a baby at fifteen
daddy never did forgive me
I never heard from the guy again
I had to drop outta high school
everybody treated me so cruel
But I didn't give in and give her away

Her smile got me through the day
and every night I'd pray:
I could give her enough
At night I'd lie awake and cry
hopin' we'd get by
'Cause you can't live on love

I worked night and day to keep us goin'
Through the sweat and tears without her knowin'
It was worth it just to watch her grow
Oh, oh, at least I was able to hold her
Whenever she needed my shoulder
I'm so glad I never let her go

Her smile got me through the years
dried away the tears
And filled me with hope
At night I'd lie awake and cry
prayed we would get by
And for the courage to cope
Oh, oh, oh

Her smile got me through the day--
and every night I'd pray
I could give her enough

No on can tell me I'm wrong
I ain't goin' down

Klamydia : Kuljukka

päonnistunut makarooni Kuljukka unelmoi,
oi jospa hänelläkin se reikä olisi.
Ei silloin muut pojat pussin jatkuvasti morkkaisi,
uurteetkin sillä sentään kohdallansa on.
Voiko elämä tosiaan näin pahasti potkia,
häntä viatonta elintarviketta.

Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Silti elämä lopulta voittaa, sen tämä tarina saakoon luvan todistaa.

Muut pojat treffeillä kävivät spagettipussissa,
Kuljukka siivoamaan himaan jätettiin.
Tuo poika-rukka yksin, Kuljukka kyynelsilmin
vain pussin pohjaa harmain mielin lakaisee.
Mutta spagetti-jätkät ja kimmat
näin ovat joutuneet treffiensä päätteeksi italian pataan!

Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Silti elämä lopulta voittaa, sen tämä tarina saakoon luvan todistaa.

Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Elo ilman reikää on kuin masturbaatio ilman käsiä!
Silti elämä lopulta voittaa, sen tämä tarina saakoon luvan todistaa.

Wanhan miehen -70-lukua

"Melancholy Man" (Moody Blues)

I'm a melancholy man, that's what I am,
All the world surrounds me, and my feet are on the ground.
I'm a very lonely man, doing what I can,
All the world astounds me and I think I understand
That we're going to keep growing, wait and see.

When all the stars are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground,
And angry voices carry on the wind,
A beam of light will fill your head
And you'll remember what's been said
By all the good men this world's ever known.
Another man is what you'll see,
Who looks like you and looks like me,
And yet somehow he will not feel the same,
His life caught up in misery, he doesn't think like you and me,
'Cause he can't see what you and I can see.


Lasinkuultava laulu
( P. Mustapää)

Tein lasinkuultavan laulun,
älä luule, että voit sen alta paeta.
Siihen jäät ja siinä aina soit.

Ja laulu, jonka laadin,
oli aivan sanaton.
Olet kaunein, mitä tiedän,
olet kaunein, mitä on.

Tein lasinkuultavan laulun,
joko huomaat, tajuat:
se vaimentaen vahvistaa
suven äänet ihanat.

Veden solinan,
airojen kohahtelun
ja suhinan kaislikon.
Olet kaunein, mitä tiedän,
olet kaunein, mitä on.

It's a non-stop disco, I bet you didn't know hoo hoo,
It's a non-stop disco, I bet you didn't know hoo hoo,
It's a non-stop disco,
I bet you didn't know, bet you didn't know
It's a non-stop disco,
I bet you didn't know, bet you didn't know, bet you didn't know

It's a violent pornography,
Choking chicks and sodomy,
The kinda shit you get on your TV,
It's a violent pornography,
Choking chicks and sodomy,
The kinda shit that's on your TV,
It's a violent pornography,
Choking chicks and sodomy,
The kinda shit that's on your TV,
It's on the TV, Turn off your TV,
Can you say brainwashing,

Brainwashing,
It's a non-stop disco...

 

[flatfoot]

Billie Holidayn Strange Fruit tuli mieleen ja nyt se ei sieltä
lähdekään, tässä olkaa hyvät:

Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.

Pastoral scene of the gallant south,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.

Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.

 

[hokkineito]

Yö: Karheaa ja kaunista
Karheaa ja kaunista
On täällä taivaltaa
Kirpeää ja raikasta
Yksinkin on vaeltaa

Silti aina tarvitsee
Kohteen tunteilleen
Muuten kaatuu ja putoaa
Jos muuta haluaa

Muistinkos oikein, koitin tuolta muistin perukoilta jostain kaivella... Saa korjata jos tahtoo.

Ja sit tietysti on se Sankarit...
Me ollaan sankareita kaikki
Kun oikein silmiin katsotaan
Me ollaan sankareita elämän
Ihan jokainen

 

[flatfoot]

Stingin Fragile soi äsken kakkosen eläinohjelmassa, varsin
koskettavat sanat, mielestäni.

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence
and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are

England 2 Colombia 0
Kirsty MacColl

Oh you shouldn't have kissed me and got me so excited
And when you asked me out I really was delighted
So we went to a pub in Belsize Park
And we cheered on England as the sky grew dark

Oh you shouldn't have kissed me cause you started a fire
But then I found out that you're a serial liar

You lied about your status
You lied about your life
You never mentioned your three children
And the fact you have a wife
Now it's England 2 Colombia 0
And I know just how those Colombians feel

If you hadn't passed out while I was talking to your friend
It could have really ended badly cause you very nearly had me
If he hadn't taken pity on my heart full of desire
I might never have found out you're a serial liar

You lied about your status
You lied about your life
You forgot you have three children
You forgot you have a wife
Now it's England 2 Colombia 0
And I know just how those Colombians feel

It is not in my nature to ever pick the winning team
Sometimes I think I'm happy then I remember it's a dream
Now it isn't in my nature to ever pick a winner
I always pick a bastard who would have me for his dinner

I can never possess the object of my desire
Cause he's bound to turn out to be a serial liar
OK I didn't mention my kids, I thought I'd wait a bit
But I am free and single and he's a lying git

Cause he lied about his status
He lied about his life
He forgot he had three children
He forgot he had a wife
And it's England 2 Colombia 0
I know just how those Colombians feel

So I got into a taxi and sobbed all the way home
Called my friend up in Sao Paulo and cried down the phone
I played some tragic music and I lay down to die
But later I woke and I hadn't stopped crying

You should never have kissed me, you tasted of deceit
Your perfume was Adultery but I'm not a piece of meat
So I'll be the one that you couldn't acquire
I found out in time you're a serial liar

You lied about your status
You lied about your life
And I pity your three children
And I pity your poor wife
Now you can go to Hell
I'm going to Brazil
Still it's England 2 Colombia 0

Kirstylla oli sana hallussa.

Suurta tahdonvoimaa kuolemassaankin osoittanut Ian Curtis, suuri innoittajani, sanaili muunmuassa seuraavaa juuri ennen henkensä riistämistä:


This is a crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I’d kept.
Doubting, unsettling and turning around,
Wondering what will come next.
Is this the role that you wanted to live?
I was foolish to ask for so much.
Without the protection and infancy’s guard,
It all falls apart at first touch.

Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
Brutally taking it’s time,
People who change for no reason at all,
It’s happening all of the time.
Can I go on with this train of events?
Disturbing and purging my mind,
Back out of my duties, when all’s said and done,
I know that I’ll lose every time.

Moving along in our God given ways,
Safety is sat by the fire,
Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,
Left with a mark on the door,
Is this the gift that I wanted to give?
Forgive and forget’s what they teach,
Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,
And watch as they drop by the beach.

This is the crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I’d kept,
Turning around to the next set of lives,
Wondering what will come next.


Erittäin koskettavaa tekstiä omalle kohdalleni.

Tähän perään kun kuuntelee:

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions won’t grow
And we’re changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet there’s still this appeal
That we’ve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can’t function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again


Ei siinä muuta sitten kuin Atmosphere soimaan ja koittaa pysyä hengissä...
