Hey, baby. Woo!

Standin' on top of the world
Gonna give it all we got
(Standin' on top) Hey baby
(Standin' on top) Hey darlin'. Woo!
Standin' on top
Standin' on top
Standin' on top

La cura - Franco Battiato

Ti proteggerò dalle paure delle ipocondrie,
dai turbamenti che da oggi incontrerai per la tua via.
Dalle ingiustizie e dagli inganni del tuo tempo,
dai fallimenti che per tua natura normalmente attirerai.
Ti solleverò dai dolori e dai tuoi sbalzi d'umore,
dalle ossessioni delle tue manie.
Supererò le correnti gravitazionali,
lo spazio e la luce
per non farti invecchiare.
E guarirai da tutte le malattie,
perché sei un essere speciale,
ed io, avrò cura di te.

Vagavo per i campi del Tennessee
(come vi ero arrivato, chissà).
Non hai fiori bianchi per me?
Più veloci di aquile i miei sogni
attraversano il mare.

Ti porterò soprattutto il silenzio e la pazienza.
Percorreremo assieme le vie che portano all'essenza.
I profumi d'amore inebrieranno i nostri corpi,
la bonaccia d'agosto non calmerà i nostri sensi.
Tesserò i tuoi capelli come trame di un canto.
Conosco le leggi del mondo, e te ne farò dono.
Supererò le correnti gravitazionali,
lo spazio e la luce per non farti invecchiare.
TI salverò da ogni malinconia,
perché sei un essere speciale ed io avrò cura di te...
io sì, che avrò cura di te.

Iced Earth --- When the Eagle Cries

--------

Another day, just like any other
out of the blue, it turned to horror
How could they?
Why would they?
The innocents suffered hell's inferno
A senseless act that goes unforgotten
How could they?
They will pay.

When the Eagle Cries
Blood will flow
When the Eagle Cries
For freedom's fight
When the Eagle Cries
We love her so
When the Eagle Cries
We will sacrifice

Out of the ashes came a tempted vengeance
But we are focused, we seek redemption
We are free
We'll stay free
All they've done is make us stronger
The sleeping giant is asleep no longer
If need be
We'll die free

When the Eagle Cries
Blood will flow
When the Eagle Cries
For freedom's fight
When the Eagle Cries
We love her so
When the Eagle Cries
We will sacrifice

Mia cuggina la Todrara
che conosce tanta ggente
dice: "Li cantanti morti
nun so' mmorti veramente.
So' nascosti a Roma a fa' la bella vita.
Sono stati presi in blocco da 'na dita
pe' ffa' vennere più dischi
e faje un po' pubbliscità".

Ar Tuscolano ce sta er Chitara
conosciuto come er Vuducialdaro,
mentre ar Testaccio ce trovi er Mafrodito
che nun smette de cantacce:
"Li campioni semo noi".

A Murotorto an vedi er Rastamanno
che ce dà le vibbrazioni rastamanne:
lui je dice a 'na pischella de nun piagnere perché
se fumamo er sigaretto con l'amico Selassié.

Semo li immortacci, semo li immortacci,
gli altissimi morti:
ma nun è vero, ma nun è vero,
siam tutti risorti.
Noi semo gli zombi der monno cantaro
guidati dar moog der Guardiano der faro:
semo li immortacci.

A Centocelle troneggia er Pelvicaro,
che bappaluba e magna tutti li frutti.
C'ha na fija che j'attizza er Trilleraro
che se chiama Micheletto
ma er negretto nun vòffà.

Ma quando viene sera, li immortacci
dai sette colli scennono in pianura,
co' certi mignottoni da paura,
poi cor magnaccia intoneno er refrein.

Semo li immortacci, semo li immortacci,
gli altissimi morti:
ma che ce frega, ma che ce importa,
siam sempre più forti.
Ce piace sfreccià sur raccordo anularo,
ma a notte inortrata ce invita er Canaro
a facce du' spaghi.

Ma a Primaporta ce sta er Lucertolaro
che co' su' madre vole fare du' zompi;
cor Quattrocchi immagginaro,
con er Tromba e cor Vedraro,
l'Impiccato e er Fucilense se ne vanno là per là
a Freggene dar Piscina a fa' li sassi rotolà.

Semo li immortacci, semo li immortacci,
cantanti feretri.
Quanno trapassi, quanno trapassi
vai sotto dù metri;
puoi fare domanna pe' ffare ritonno,
però la domanna fa 'r giro del monno
e tu resti feretro:
feretro, feretro, feretro, feretro,
mortacci, feretro, feretro, mortacci, retrofit.

TIME OF YOUR LIFE
GREEN DAY

Another turning point; a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist; directs you where to go.
So make the best of this test and don't ask why.
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredicatable but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographs and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
It's something unpredicatable but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Should I Stay Or Should I Go
THE CLASH

Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

Always tease tease tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine, next day is black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know

Should I stay or should I go?
Should I stay or should I go?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know
Come on and let me know
Should I cool it or should I blow?

Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

REM - Nightswimming

..Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.

The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago,

turned around backwards so the windshield shows.

Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse.

Still, it's so much clearer.

I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.

The moon is low tonight.



Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.

I'm not sure all these people understand.

It's not like years ago,

The fear of getting caught,

of recklessness and water.

They cannot see me naked.

These things, they go away,

replaced by everyday.



Nightswimming, remembering that night.

September's coming soon.

I'm pining for the moon.

And what if there were two

Side by side in orbit

Around the fairest sun?

That bright, tight forever drum

could not describe nightswimming.



You, I thought I knew you.

You I cannot judge.

You, I thought you knew me,

this one laughing quietly underneath my breath.

Nightswimming.



The photograph reflects,

every streetlight a reminder.

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night...

The Doors - Ghost Song

Awake.
Shake dreams from your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day and choose the sign of your day
The day’s divinity
First thing you see.

A vast radiant beach in a cool jeweled moon
Couples naked race down by it’s quiet side
And we laugh like soft, mad children
Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy
The music and voices are all around us.

Choose they croon the ancient ones
The time has come again
Choose now, they croon
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake

Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream
Come with us
Everything is broken up and dances...

Beatles - Helter Skelter

When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
Till I get to the bottom and I see you again.

Do you, don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you
Tell me tell me tell me come on tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter.

Will you, won't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Look out helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter

Look out, cause here she comes.

When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
And I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
And I get to the bottom and I see you again

Well do you, don't you want me to make you
I'm coming down fast but don't let me break you
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.

Look out helter skelter helter skelter
Helter skelter
Look out helter skelter
She's coming down fast
Yes she is
Yes she is.

She-Wolf - Megadeth

The mother of all that is evil
Her lips are poisonous venom
Wicked temptress knows how to please
The priestess roars, "Get down on your knees"

The rite of the praying mantis
Kiss the bones of the enchantress
Spellbound searching through the night
A howling man surrenders the fight

One look in her lusting eyes
Savage fear in you will rise
Teeth of terror sinking in
The bite of the she-wolf

My desires of flesh obey me
The lioness will enslave me
Another heart beat than my own
The sound of claws on cobblestone, I'm stoned

Beware what stalks you in the night
Beware the she-wolf and her bite
Her mystic lips tell only lies
Her hidden will to kill in disguise

[neo1987]

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing


You get a shiver in the dark
It's been raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
You feel all right when you hear that music ring

You step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Too much competition too many other places
But not too many horns can make that sound
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town

You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
And an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
He can play honky tonk just like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing

Amd a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
It ain't what they call rock and roll
And the Sultans played Creole

And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
and he makes it fast with one more thing
'We are the Sultans of Swing'

[Kars]

With your feet in the air , and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it! Yeahh!
Your head will collapse , if there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself?

chorus:
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out, in the water see it swimmin´

I was swimmin´ in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rocks.
Except the little fish
When they told me east is west
Trying to talk to me,coy koi

chorus:
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out, in the water see it swimmin´

With your feet in the air, and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it! Yeahh!
Your head will collapse if there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

chorus:
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out, in the water see it swimmin´

Ninnananna - Modena City Ramblers

Camminavo vicino alle rive del fiume
nella brezza fresca
degli ultimi giorni d'inverno
e nell'aria andava una vecchia canzone
e la marea danzava correndo verso il mare.

A volte i viaggiatori si fermano stanchi
e riposano un poco
in compagnia di qualche straniero.
Chissa dove ti addormenterai stasera
e chissà come ascolterai questa canzone.

Forse ti stai cullando al suono di un treno,
inseguendo il ragazzo gitano
con lo zaino sotto il violino
e se sei persa
in qualche fredda terra straniera
ti mando una ninnananna
per sentirti più vicina.

Un giorno, guidati da stelle sicure
ci ritroveremo
in qualche ancgolo di mondo lontano,
nei bassifondi, tra i musicisti e gli sbandati
o sui sentieri dove corrono le fate.

E prego qualche Dio dei viaggiatori
che tu abbia due soldi in tasca
da spendere stasera
e qualcuno nel letto
per scaldare via l'inverno
e un angelo bianco
seduto alla finestra.

[Franied]

Flaw - Payback


There's another reflection involved up in my mind
A wholeness that has just been lost
Striving hard for perfection but still nothing to find
Some value with a cheaper cost
And as I reach out to hear you the sound is so muffled
It makes a lesser man of me
So the only thing left to bring up to date is


YOU SUCK!
Watch me fall while I go down
I'm taking all you bastards to the ground with
me then I'll frown
On your fucking whole life
The systematic hype still means a bit much to me!


I'm at the point of retraction and still slipping further
This place is getting worse for me
There's such a lack of direction and models to live by
No bright skies ahead of me
And as I reach out for your hand you turn and
then wander
Why I simply just can't see
No separation of gender no difference in me
You're just leading me on and on and on
You lead me on and on and on and on


Pretty soon it's gonna come back and be your turn
Pretty soon you're gonna be the one that burns...


Your turn now!

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing'

Eagles - Tequila Sunrise

It's another tequila sunrise
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye
He was just a hired hand
Workin' on the dreams he planned to try
The days go by

Ev'ry night when the sun goes down
Just another lonely boy in town
And she's out runnin' 'round

She wasn't just another woman
And I couldn't keep from comin' on
It's been so long
Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' when
It comes down to dealin' friends
It never ends

Take another shot of courage
Wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
It's another tequila sunrise,this old world
still looks the same,
Another frame, mm...

the winner takes it all


I don’t wanna talk
About the things we’ve gone through
Though it’s hurting me
Now it’s history
I’ve played all my cards
And that’s what you’ve done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That’s her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I’d be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It’s simple and it’s plain
Why should I complain.

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don’t wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You’ve come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all......

Alan Parsons Project - Silence And I

If I cried out loud
Over sorrows I’ve known
And the secrets I’ve heard
It would ease my mind
Someone sharing the load
But I won’t breathe a word

We’re two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We’ll find a way to work it out

While the children laughed
I was always afraid
Of the smile of the clown
So I close my eyes
Till I can’t see the light
And I hide from the sound

We’re two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We’ll find a way to work it out

I can hear the cry
Of the leaf on a tree
As it falls to the ground
I can hear the call
Of an echoing voice
And there’s no one around

We’re two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We’ll find a way to work it out
