So you never knew love
Until you crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted
'Til you had someone slap your face
So you never felt alive
Until you'd almost wasted awayYou had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest ass
At the top of the class
Your flying colors
Your family tree
And all your lessons in historyPlease…please…please…
Get up off your knees
Please…please…please…
Please…So you never knew
How low you'd stoop to make that call
And you never knew
What was on the ground 'til they made you crawl
So you never knew
That the heaven you keep, you stoleYour Catholic blues
Your convent shoes
Your stick-on tattoos
Now they're making the news
Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your carPlease…please…please…
Get up off your knees
Please…please…please…
Leave me out of this pleaseSo love is hard
And love is tough
But love is not
What you're thinking ofSeptember
Streets capsizing
Spilling over
Down the drain
Shards of glass
Splinters like rain
But you could only feel
Your own painOctober
Talk getting nowhere
November
December
Remember
Are we just starting againPlease…please…please…
Get up off your knees, yeah
Please…please…please…
Please…So love is big
Is bigger than us
But love is not
What you're thinking ofIt's what lovers deal
It's what lovers steal
You know I've found it hard to receive'Cause you my love
I could never believeBono (U2) – PLEASE

Bruce Springsteen – The river
I come from down in the valley
Where mister, when you're young
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields are green
We'd go down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh down to the river we'd rideThen I got Mary pregnant
And, man, that was all she wrote
And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
That night we went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh down to the river we'd rideI got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well, mister they vanished right into the air
Now I act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now those memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse
That sends me
Down to the river
Though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight
Down to the river
My baby and I
Oh down to the river we ride--

Bruce Springsteen – The river
Ganz klar einer seiner besten Songs, leider ist das dazugehörige Album imho zu überfrachtet.

Sagte ich schon mal irgendwo, dass ich Rio Reisers lyrische Kompetenz für äußerst limitiert erachte?Ein wirklich guter Songschreiber kann auch mit wenigen Worten berühren. Der Titel ist für mich einer der besten aus Reisers Solozeit. :)

johnny cash – boy named sue
Well, my daddy left home when I was three,
And he didn't leave much to ma and me,
Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid,
But the meanest thing that he ever did,
Was before he left, he went and named me Sue.Well, he musta thought that is quite a joke,
And it got a lot of laughs from a lots of folks.
Seems I had to fight my whole life through.
Some gal would giggle and I'd get red,
And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,
I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named Sue.Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean,
My fists got hard and my wits got keen,
Roamed from town to town to hide my shame.
But I made me a vow to the moon and stars,
I'd search the honky-tonks and bars,
And kill that man that gimme that awful name.Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July,
And I'd just hit town and my throat was dry,
I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.
At an old saloon on a street of mud,
There at a table, dealing stud,
Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me „Sue.“Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad,
From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had,
And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.
He was big and bent and gray and old,
And I looked at him and my blood ran cold,
And I said: „My name is Sue!
„How do you do!
„Now you gonna die!!“Yeah, that's what I told him!
Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes,
And he went down, but to my surprise,
He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.
But I busted a chair right across his teeth,
And we crashed through the wall and into the street,
Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.I tell you, I've fought tougher men,
But I really can't remember when.
He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.
I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss,
An' he went for his gun and I pulled mine first,
He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.And he said: „Son, this world is rough,
„And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough,
„And I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along.
„So I give ya that name and I said goodbye,
„I knew you'd have to get tough or die,
„And it's the name that helped to make you strong.“He said: „Now you just fought one hell of a fight,
„And I know you hate me, and you got the right,
„To kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you do.
„But ya ought to thank me, before I die,
„For the gravel in your guts and the spit in ya eye,
„'Cos I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you Sue.“Yeah, what could I do,? What could I do?
I got all choked up and I threw down my gun,
And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,
And I came away with a different point of view.
And I think about him, now and then,
Every time I try and every time I win.
And if I ever have a son,
I think I'm gonna name him
Bill or George!
Anything but Sue!I still hate that name!

the Magnetic Fields – Absolutely Cuckoo
Don't fall in love with me yet
We only recently met
True I'm in love with you
but you might decide I'm a nut
Give me a week or two
to go absolutely cuckoo
then, when you see your error
then, you can flee in terror
like everybody else does
I only tell you this cause
I'm easy to get rid of
but not when you fall in love
Know now that I'm one to make
and if you make a mistake
my heart will certainly brake
I'll have to jump in a lake
and all my friends will blame you
There's no telling what they'll do
It's only fair to tell you
I'm absolutely cuckoo--
Look out ahead
I see danger come
I wanna pistol
I wanna gun
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gunBaby, baby
Ain't it true
I'm immortal
When I 'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
I wanna go to
A different landI met a man
He told me straight
„You gotta leave
It's getting late“
Too many cops
Too many guns
All trying to do something
No-one else has oneBaby, baby
Ain't it true
I'm immortal
When I 'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
I wanna go to
A different landSometimes it rains so hard
And I feel the hurt
In my heart
Feels like the end of the world
I see the children
Sharp as knives
I see the children
Dead and alives
Beautiful people
Beautiful girls
I just feel like it's the end of the worldI walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But I can't find
A safe place to stand
I'm scared baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Gimme the gunBaby, baby
Ain't it true
I'm immortal
When I 'm with you
But I want a pistol
In my hand
I wanna go to
A different landP J Harvey – BIG EXIT

Let's rock and roll/put some real hip hop in your soul/over this track there's no stoppin the flow/let's blast off in a ridiculous way/face off, like Nicolas CageSorry leute aber momentan „leide“ ich unter akuter Pearl-Jam-Sucht.Ich weiss ja nicht ob hier schon ein PJ-Text gepostet wurde.Wenn nicht wird es jetzt aber mal höchste Zeit. B)
Pearl Jam Garden
she don´t wander in…don´t wander in here,she…
she don´t wander in here…don´t wander in here
the direction of the eye,so misleading
the defection of the soul,nauseously quick
i don´t question,our existence
i just questions,our modern needs
she don´t wander in…don´t wander in here,she…
she don´t wander in here…
i will walk..with my hands bound
i will walk with my face blood
i will walk with my shadow flag
into your garden,garden of stone
after all is done,and we´re still alone
i won´t be taken,yet i´ll go …with my hands bound
i will walk …with my face blood
i will walk with my shadow flag
into your garden,garden of stone
i don´t show…i don´t share…
i don´t need what you have to give
i will walk…with my hands bound
i will walk …with my face blood
i will walk … with my shadow flag
into your garden,garden of …
i will walk… with my hands bound
i will walk into your garden,garden of stone….
i don´t know…i don´t care
i don´t need…the need to live…So und damit ich endlich auch meinen 1000 Post halbwegs sinnvoll getippt bekomme hier noch ein Pearl Jam Text.Aber damit soll es in diesem Thread auch erstmal mit PJ gewesen sein.Versprochen.
Pearl Jam Nothing as it seems
don´t feel like home,he´s a little out…
and all these words elope,it´s nothing like your poem
putting in,inputting in,don´t feel like methadone
a scratching voice all alone,there´s nothing like your bariton
it´s nothing as it seems,the little that he needs,it´s home
the little that he sees,is nothing he concedes,it´s home
one uninvited chromosome,a blanket like the ozone
it´s nothing as it seems,all that he needs,it´s home
the little that he frees,is nothing he believes
saving up a sunny day,something maybe two tone
anything of his own,a chip off the cornerstone
who´s kidding,rainy day
a one way ticket headstone
occupations overthrown,a whisper through a megaphone
its nothing as it seems,the little that he needs,it´s home
the little that he sees,it´s nothing he concedes,it´s home
and all that he frees,a little bittersweet,it´s home
it´s nothing as it seems ,the little that you see ,it´s home… -
