Scatman John - Quiet desperation
Tekst :
Sittin on a milk crate morning noon and nightFantasizing the American dream
You re lookin pretty good and you ve got yourself
Convinced that the nightmare ain t as bad as it seems
You try your best to hide yourself
Beneath a turned up collar and a plastic bag
Is all you got to show
And your books inside your shopping cart
Is probably the best education that you ve ever gonna know
The guy in the Mercedes just hollared with a dollar
Better grab it cause the signal s turning green
And while you re at it put the jug behind the picket fence
Because the cop that just went by sho looking mean
Institution, contribution, restitution, destitution
Doesn t mean a thing to you now
You re the freeway feature film your audience is driving by
So maybe you should stand and take a bow
(chorus)
You re living in desperation
And you never have felt complete
You live in antecipation of another day on the street
Sing with me
You re sitting in that same spot you want to go home
But there ain t no home but home on the range
You ve forgotten what you look like
And it looks like you ve forgotten that
The look inside your eyes is very strange
Ain t nothing left to hide
You re stripped of all your pride
And all you feel inside is a hole a mile wide
You re the freeway desperado and a perfect living model
Of a land that hasn t any good excuse
(repeat chorus)
You re sitting on your milk crate
With your blanket wrapped around you
And I see you sittin day after day
I d really like to talk but I know if I approached
You d probably get up and walk away
You wishing that your home of the American dream
Wasn t only smog and exhaust
I love you desperado and all I ve got to say is
You let me know how much I m really lost
(repeat chorus)
Inne utwory
Losowe utwory
Today is a good day
Today is a good day
Hé Hé ... Hé ... It s was good day ... Hé Hé ... Hé Hé ...
Je me lève le matin et puis j ai le sourire
Arrive à l ANPE et je me mets à rire
Derrière le...
Hé Hé ... Hé ... It s was good day ... Hé Hé ... Hé Hé ...
Je me lève le matin et puis j ai le sourire
Arrive à l ANPE et je me mets à rire
Derrière le...
Intro - oszalał
Pieniądz to morderca najbardziej brutalny w historii świata nieporównywalny do nikogo, nie przerównasz do niczego powiedzcie jak mogliśmy dopuścić do tego. Przemoc, narkotyki, wojny, prostytucja, fałszywa przyjaźń, mordercza korupcja wspólnym mianownikiem tego wszystkiego jest pieniądz i nie zmienisz tego dlaczego, powiedz mi dlaczego żądza posiadania niesie z sobą tyle złego...
Wings of my love
When this old world gets you down
When your spirit’s on the ground
Just remember I will always be around
Just climb on the wings of my love
I’ll take you high on the wings of my love
When you’re feeling all alone
When your spirit’s on the ground
Just remember I will always be around
Just climb on the wings of my love
I’ll take you high on the wings of my love
When you’re feeling all alone
Not gonna hold on
Can t you see we were meant to be, oh baby
Down for each other for eternity, oh baby, baby
Let me know if you re out of my life
(Don t hang on) Don t hang on to my heart and say bye-bye
I used to be the one...
Down for each other for eternity, oh baby, baby
Let me know if you re out of my life
(Don t hang on) Don t hang on to my heart and say bye-bye
I used to be the one...

Here comes The Rose, looking mighty fine.
Here comes ol Nancy, walking right in time.
Here comes the stripper, bringing on the night.
Here come the boys, faces hidden from the light.
Walk through the shadows.
Well, they come and they go.
