Colour my life with the chaos of trouble cause anything's better than posh isolation

Belle and Sebastian - The Boy with the Arab Strap





A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
The odour of old prison food takes a long time to pass you by


Day upon day of this wandering gets you down
Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town


Hovering silence from you is a giveaway
Squalor and smoke's not your style
"I don't like this place"
We better go
Then I compare notes with your older sister
I am a lazy gett, she is as pure as the cold driven snow



What did you learn from your time in the solitary
Cell of your mind?
There was noises, distractions from anything good
And the old prison food
Colour my life with the chaos of trouble
Cause anything's better than posh isolation
I missed the bus
You were laid on your back
With the boy with the arab strap
With the boy from the arab strap


It's something to speak of the way you are feeling
To crowds there assembled
Do you ever feel you have gone too far?
Everyone suffers in silence a burden
The man who drives minicabs down in Old Compton
The Asian man
With his love hate affair
With his racist clientele


A central location for you is a must
As you stagger about making free with your lewd and lascivious boasts
We all know you are soft cause we've all seen you dancing
We all know you are hard cause we all saw you drinking from noon
Until noon again
You're the boy with the filthy laugh
You're the boy with the arab strap


Strapped to the table with suits from the shelter shop
Comic celebrity takes a back seat as the cigarette catches
And sets off the smoke alarm
What do you make of the cool set in London?
You're constantly updating your hit parade of your ten biggest wanks
She's a waitress and she's got style
Sunday bathtime could take a while

You're invisible now, you’ve got no secrets to conceal

Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling Stone

Pentru ca implineste azi 70 de ani :)



Once upon a time you dressed so fine,
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you ?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall,"
You thought they were all a’kiddin' you.
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out.
Now you don't talk so loud,
Now you don't seem so proud,
About having to be scrounging your next meal.

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To be without a home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, you've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely,
But you know you only used to get “juiced” in it.
Nobody’s ever taught you how to live out on the street,
And now you're gonna have to get used to it.
You say you never compromise
With a mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say, “Do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To be on your own ?
With no direction home ?
A complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, you never turned around to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns
When they all did tricks for you.
You never understood that it ain't no good,
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you.
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal ?

How does it feel ?
How does it feel ?
To have ya’ on your own ?
With no direction home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Aw, princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they’ve got it made.
Exchanging all precious gifts,
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe.
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used.
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse.
When you ain’t got nothing, you’ve got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you’ve got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel ?
Aw, how does it feel ?
To be on your own ?
With no direction home ?
Like a complete unknown ?
Like a rolling stone ?

Vibreaza pasii mei de parca merg pe clape

Alternosfera - Flori de mai



O data prinsa-n lemn
Ascunde-ma neatins
Pazeste-ma de ger
Ast'noapte iar a nins
Cand tu visai
Albastre flori de mai.
Ce flori in toiul iernii
Opreste-te-ti sopteam
~Acum doar cerul sticla
Picteaza flori la geam.~
Tu n-ascultai
Visai doar flori de mai .

R: Mai stai si nu pleca de n-ai
sa-mi dai [nu ti-am cerut sa-mi dai] albastre flori de mai.

De ochi straini ma tem
Ce in strada ard nestins
Privind la ei te chem
Tin minte tot ce-ai zis
Atunci spuneai
~Plec dupa flori de mai.~
Vibreaza pasii mei
De parca merg pe clape
Cu mine insumi cant..
Refren singuratate
De cand plecai
Dupa flori de mai .

R: Mai stai si nu pleca de n-ai
sa-mi dai [nu ti-am cerut sa-mi dai] albastre flori de mai.

R: Mai stai si nu pleca de n-ai
sa-mi dai [nu ti-am cerut sa-mi dai] albastre flori de mai.

Gloria she's no longer your slave

Mando Diao - Gloria



Well now
She don't need to see the sun ahead
Don't need that help from God above
If you're losing her don't be sad
Cause she will offer you heart attacks

She's tired of problems that you caused her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
Being the lowest cat on earth

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about

Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave, noo

Ooh ooh ooh

It's time for you to see yourself
All the misery you brought up
Gloria's one day ahead
Watching you from the heaven's gate

She's tired of problems that you caused her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
Being the lowest cat on earth

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about

2x
Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave

She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore
She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore
She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
you've been dreaming about

Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave

No, not anymore
No, no, no, not anymore
No, no

Do you feel something pulling you back in?

Black Lab - Lonely Boy





you say
you like to sleep alone
and i say
i miss the way you breathe
you say
i get away with murder
but you know i've paid for hurting
someone i can't leave behind


Do you feel something
pulling you back in
do you see something
you wanna see again
i could be the one
i could make it up to you
take me back, i'm the lonely boy who
who loves you


you say
my broken heart becomes me
i say
i'd sell it cheap to you
you say
i should
wrap all the lies i've told in
10 dollar bills and smoke the
money doesn't burn so clean


Do you feel something
pulling you back in
do you see something
you wanna see again
i could be the one
i could make it up to you
take me back, i'm the lonely boy who
who loves you
(x2)

Farewell my black balloon

The Kills - Black Balloon



Elevator straight into my skull
the escalator rises as it falls
i swear our jet is crashing in my mind
you can hold on but i wouldn't waste your time

farewell my black balloon
farewell my black balloon

i've stood in a thousand street scenes
just around the corner from you
on the edge of a dream that you have
has anybody ever told you, it's not coming true ?

farewell my black balloon
farewell my black balloon
farewell my black balloon
farewell my black balloon

we’ll never miss a movie, never miss a movie , come on

Kumm - Police

Pentru ca o sa cante in seara asta in Oldies. Ne vedem acolo! :)


whatever I will never say
“please shut up and blow me a kiss’
you said that if i’d go away
you’ve got the right to call the police
we’ll never miss a movie
never miss a movie , come on
if you just listen to me
you just listen to me, come on

if we had a little time
to walk the shores see what we’ll find
then we’ll have a place to go
and we’ll live forever

we’ll never miss a movie
never miss a movie , come on
if you just listen to me
you just listen to me, come on
whatever you will never be
exotic fruit on common stand
a stranger comes and talks to me
please shut up and give me your hand

and time is gonna teach you
not to give up
not to give up
always stay tough
always stay tough
time is gonna reach you
and never give up
never give up
find out a lot
find out a lot
and time is gonna preach you...
not to give up
not to give up

I'm the hero of the story, don't need to be saved

Regina Spektor - Hero



He never ever saw it coming at all
He never ever saw it coming at all
He never ever saw it coming at all

It's al-right, it's al-right, it's al-right, it's al-right
It's al-right, it's al-right, it's al-right

Hey, open wide here comes original sin

No one's got it all
No one's got it all
No one's got it all

Power to the people
We don't want it
We want pleasure
And the T.V.s try to rape us
And I guess that they're succeeding
Now we're going to these meetings
But we're not doin' any meetin'
And we're trying to be faithful but we're cheatin', cheatin', cheatin'

Hey, open wide here comes original sin
Hey, open wide here comes original sin

I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved

Don't need to be saved
I'm the hero of the story
Don't need to be saved

Don't need to be saved

You were just a little girl; so big in your own life

Minus Story - Battle Of Our Lives



I can see you
I can see you
when I close my eyes
you were just a little girl
so big in your own life
without that you cannot live you cannot survive
and I can see you lost your way
I can see your hands still tied

looking out your window at the people walking by
but they don't want to give you love
just want to tell you lies
you don't have to say it
I can see it in your eyes
but they don't want to give you love
just want to tell you lies

looking out your window at the people walking by
but they don't want to give you love
just want to tell you lies
and you don't have to say it
I can see it in your eyes
but this is not the end
it is the battle of our lives

tell me no lies x 12

looking out your window at the people walking by
but they don't want to give you love
just want to tell you lies
and you don't have to say it
I can see it in your eyes
but this is not the end
it is the battle of our lives

Warms you up inside, soothes your wounded pride

Quasi - Drunken Tears



Warms you up inside
Soothes your wounded pride
But your gold turns to lead
As it goes to your head
And you cry
Drunken tears once again, my friend

So what if you're not the genius
You always thought you were?
Nobody hears the brilliant words
Between your ears
And you cry
Drunken tears once again, my friend

Here's some ancient truth
Dredged up from your youth
A voice from way back when
Long lost love that might have been
And you cry
Drunken tears once again, my friend

Go ahead, I don't mind your drunken tears
