my favorite lyrics
"Well here it is five pm, the finish of a long day's work
and there they are her and him, the secratery and the clerk:
not very well acquainted, not very much to say,
but I can hear their two little minds ticking away . . . "
"En el tronco de un árbol una niña
grabó su nom' henchida de placer
y el árbol, conmovido a su seno
a su lado un pobre flor dejó caer.
Yo soy el árbol, conmovido y triste!
Tú eres la niña que mi tronco hirio!
Guardo siempre tu querido nombre: y tú,
¿Qué has hecho con mi pobre flor?"
"Last night I heard a story about a man killed with a sword
and that made me think about my friend George.
People say the man was five foot six;
sounds like Georgie with his killing stick."
"Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right"
"I been meek
And hard like an oak
I seen pretty people disappear like smoke.
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear,
If you want me, honey baby,
I'll be here.
Like your smile
And your fingertips
Like the way that you move your lips.
I like the cool way you look at me,
Everything about you is bringing me
Misery."
"We joined the navy to see the world!
And what did we see? We saw the sea.
We saw the atlantic and the pacific
but the pacific wasn't terriffic
and the atlantic isn't what it's cracked up to be."
"I've been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand,
Could these sensations make me feel the pleasures of a normal man?
These sensations barely interest me for another day,
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, take the shock away.
"It's getting faster, moving faster now, it's getting out of hand,
On the tenth floor, down the back stairs, it's a no man's land,
Lights are flashing, cars are crashing, getting frequent now,
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling, let it out somehow.
What means to you, what means to me, and we will meet again,
I'm watching you, I'm watching her, I'll take no pity from your friends,
Who is right, who can tell, and who gives a damn right now?"
"You need me (need me) and I need you (don't you know)
Without eachother there ain't nothing people can do
(To the bone for deepness, to the bone for deepness, to the bone for deepness, think about it)."
and there they are her and him, the secratery and the clerk:
not very well acquainted, not very much to say,
but I can hear their two little minds ticking away . . . "
