FutureSex/LoveSound


Future.
Sex.
Love.
Sound.
.
You know what you want,
and that makes you just like me.
See everybody says you're hot baby,
but can you make it hot for me?
Said if you're thinking about holding back,
Don't worry girl, cause I'm gonna make it so easy.
So slide a little bit closer to me little girl.
See daddy's on a mission to please.
Wait a second.
.
She's hopped up for me
I've got her in my zone
Her body's pressed up on me
I think she's ready to blow.
Must be my future.
Sex love sound
And when it goes down
Baby all you've got to do is,
.
Just tell me which way you like that
all you gotta do is
Tell me which way you like that
do you like it like this
do you like it like that
tell me which way you like that
Tell me which way you like that
.
You can't stop baby
You can't stop once you've turned me on
And your enemy are your thoughts baby
So just let em go
Cause all I need is a moment alone
To give you my tongue,
and put you outta control
And after you let it in,
we'll be skin to skin,
It's just so natural.
.
Wait a second
She's hopped up for me
I've got her in my zone
Her body's pressed up on me
I think she's ready to blow
Must be my future.
Sex love sound.
And when it goes down baby
all you gotta do is
.
Just tell me which way u like that
all you gotta do is
Tell me which way u like that
do u like it like this
do u like it like that
just tell me which way u like that
Tell me which way u like that
.

Left Bank


Left bank,
I'm waiting for someone
Someone to be my friend
Outside, traffic's running slowly
I hear it from my window
.
Without you,
I'm getting lost
Without you, there's no release
I can't hold the sun
I can't hold the sun
.
It's raining, love is not around me
How can it get soak?
Homesick, this is how I feel now
This is how you left me
.
Without you, I'm getting lost
Without you, there's no release
I can't hold the sun
I can't hold the sun
.
Without you, I'm getting lost
Without you, there's no release
I can't hold the sun
I can't hold the sun
.

Haiti


Quando você for convidado pra subir no adro da
Fundação Casa de Jorge Amado
Pra ver do alto a fila de soldados, quase todos pretos
Dando porrada na nuca de malandros pretos
De ladrões mulatos
E outros quase brancos
Tratados como pretos
Só pra mostrar aos outros quase pretos
(E são quase todos pretos)
E aos quase brancos pobres como pretos
Como é que pretos, pobres e mulatos
E quase brancos quase pretos de tão pobres são tratados
E não importa se olhos do mundo inteiro possam estar por um momento voltados para o largo
Onde os escravos eram castigados
E hoje um batuque, um batuque com a pureza de meninos uniformizados
De escola secundária em dia de parada
E a grandeza épica de um povo em formação
Nos atrai, nos deslumbra e estimula
Não importa nada
Nem o traço do sobrado, nem a lente do Fantástico
Nem o disco de Paul Simon
Ninguém
Ninguém é cidadão
Se você for ver a festa do Pelô
E se você não for
Pense no Haiti
Reze pelo Haiti
.
O Haiti é aqui
O Haiti não é aqui
.
E na TV se você vir um deputado em pânico
Mal dissimulado
Diante de qualquer, mas qualquer mesmo
Qualquer qualquer
Plano de educação
Que pareça fácil
Que pareça fácil e rápido
E vá representar uma ameaça de democratização do ensino de primeiro grau
E se esse mesmo deputado defender a adoção da pena capital
E o venerável cardeal disser que vê tanto espírito no feto
E nenhum no marginal
E se, ao furar o sinal, o velho sinal vermelho habitual
Notar um homem mijando na esquina da rua sobre um saco brilhante de lixo do Leblon
E quando ouvir o silêncio sorridente de São Paulo diante da chacina 111 presos indefesos
Mas presos são quase todos pretos
Ou quase pretos
Ou quase brancos quase pretos de tão pobres
E pobres são como podres
E todos sabem como se tratam os pretos
E quando você for dar uma volta no Caribe
E quando for trepar sem camisinha
E apresentar sua participação inteligente no bloqueio a Cuba
Pense no Haiti
Reze pelo Haiti
.
O Haiti é aqui
O Haiti não é aqui
.
(Caetano Veloso e Gilberto Gil - Tropícália 2)

If God Will Send His Angels


Nobody else here baby no one else here to blame
No one to point the finger...
It's just you and me and the rain
Nobody made you do it, no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff the stuff of country songs
.
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN
AND IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
Would everything be alright?
.
God has got his phone off the hook
Babe would he even pick up if he could?
It's been a while since we saw that child
Hangin' round this neighbourhood
See his mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are blister ...
THE HIGH STREET never looked so low
.
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the cops collecting for the cons
So where is the hope and where is the faith ... and the love?
What's that you say to me
Does love... light up your Christmas tree?
The next minute you're blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news
.
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN
WELL IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
WHERE DO WE GO
.
Jesus never let me down
You know Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door
.
It's the stuff it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on
.
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
I SURE COULD USE THEM HERE RIGHT NOW
WELL IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
WHERE DO WE GO...
.

Sobre a Tarde


Cai a tarde
Como sempre
Como sempre
Diferente
Cai a tarde
De onde não se sabe
Pela Farme
Sobre a gente
Cai a tarde
Sem parar
Cai a tarde
E tudo parda
Cai a tarde
Meu amor rega as plantas
Cai a tarde
A tarde toda
Na velocidade da luz
Cai a tarde
Que é seu fim
Cai a tarde
Que é sem fim?
Cai a tarde
Em sua finalidade
Cai a tarde
Cai a tarde
.
(Adriana Calcanhotto - Cantada)

não me arrependo


eu não me arrependo de você.
cê não me devia maldizer assim
vi você crescer
fiz você crescer
vi cê me fazer crescer também
pra além de mim
.
não, nada irá nesse mundo
apagar o desenho que temos aqui
nem o maior dos seus erros,
meus erros, remorsos, o farão sumir
vejo essas novas pessoas
que nós engendramos em nós
e de nós
nada, nem que a gente morra,
desmente o que agora
chega à minha voz.
.
(Caetano Veloso - Cê)

Rue De Ménilmontant


[This morning, my sweet was dead. Something had changed. No letter from you.]
.
Je rêve à toi
à mes heures perdues
hélas ! à ma porte ce matin
la rue est morte
.
l'hôtel est coi
les volets rabattus
dans la cour d'école
un peu plus loin
les oiseaux se sont tus
.
Je rêve à toi
à mes heures perdues
si j'en crois la poste ce matin
tu ne reviendras plus
.
la la la
.
(Camille - Le Fil)

Bang Bang (My Baby shot Me Down)


I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
.
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
.
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
.
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down
.
Music played and people said
Just for me the church bells ring
.
Now he's gone, I don't know why
Until this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
.
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
.

Senhor Cidadão


Senhor cidadão
senhor cidadão
Me diga, por quê
me diga por quê
você anda tão triste?
tão triste
Não pode ter nenhum amigo
senhor cidadão
na briga eterna do teu mundo
senhor cidadão
tem que ferir ou ser ferido
senhor cidadão
O cidadão, que vida amarga
que vida amarga.
.
Oh senhor cidadão,
eu quero saber, eu quero saber
com quantos quilos de medo,
com quantos quilos de medo
se faz uma tradição?
.
Oh senhor cidadão,
eu quero saber, eu quero saber
com quantas mortes no peito,
com quantas mortes no peito
se faz a seriedade?
.
Senhor cidadão
senhor cidadão
eu e você
eu e você
temos coisas até parecidas
parecidas:
por exemplo, nossos dentes
senhor cidadão
da mesma cor, do mesmo barro
senhor cidadão
enquanto os meus guardam sorrisos
senhor cidadão
os teus não sabem senão morder
que vida amarga
.
Oh senhor cidadão,
eu quero saber, eu quero saber
com quantos quilos de medo,
com quantos quilos de medo
se faz uma tradição?
.
Oh senhor cidadão,
eu quero saber, eu quero saber
se a tesoura do cabelo
se a tesoura do cabelo
também corta a crueldade
.
Senhor cidadão
senhor cidadão
Me diga por que
me diga por que.
Me diga por que
me diga porque.
.

Pointless Nostalgic


Ain’t thinking ‘bout love today
Lost in the sunlight
Walking down memory lane
.
Ain’t thinking ‘bout you today
People from the past that I knew
Are slowly slipping away
Seems so long ago
Since we were carefree
.
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic-
That’s me
That’s me
.
Thoughts running round my head today
Times from the past popping up where they’re from I don’t know
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I’ve realised what life’s meant to be
.
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That’s me
That’s me
.
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I’ve realised what life’s meant to be
.
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That’s me
That’s me
.
It’s all I’ll ever be
It’s all I’ll ever be
Cause that’s me
It’s all I’ll ever be
Cause that’s me.

O Corpo


O corpo existe e pode ser pego,
é suficientemente opaco para que se possa vê-lo.
Se ficar olhando o ânus você pode ver crescer o cabelo.
O corpo existe porque foi feito,
por isso tem um buraco no meio.
O corpo existe,dado que exala cheiro
e em cada extremidade existe um dedo.
O corpo se cortado espirra um líquido vermelho.
O corpo tem alguém como recheio.
.

Maria Bethânia


Everybody knows that our cities were built to be destroyed.
You get annoyed, you buy a flat, you hide behind the mat
But I know she was born to do everything wrong whith all of that.
.
Maria Bethânia, please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better
Better, better, Beta, Beta, Bethânia
Please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better.
.
She has given her soul to the devil but the devil gave his soul to God.
Before the flood, after the blood, before you can see
She has given her soul to the devil and bought a flat by the sea.
.
Maria Bethânia, please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better
Better, better, Beta, Beta, Bethânia
Please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better.
.
Everybody knows that it’s so hard to dig and get to the root
You eat the fruit, you go ahead, you wake up on your bed
But I love her face ‘cause it has nothing to do with all I said.
.
(Caetano Veloso - 1971)

mãe


Cada passo
Cada lágrima somada
Cada ponto do tricô
Seu silêncio de aranha
Vomitando paciência
Prá tecer o seu destino
.
Cada beijo irresponsável
Cada marca do ciúme
Cada noite de perdão
O futuro na esquina
E a clareza repentina
De estar na solidão
.
Os vizinhos e parentes
A sociedade atenta
A moral com suas lentes
Com desesperada calma
Sua dor calada e muda
Cada ânsia foi juntando
.
Preparando a armadilha
Teias, linhas e agulhas
Tudo contra a solidão
Prá poder trazer um filho
Cuja mãe são seus pavores
E o pai sua coragem
.
Dorme dorme
Meu pecado
Minha culpa
Minha salvação
.

how does it make you feel?




I am feeling very warm right now
Please don't disappear
I am spacing out with you
You are the most beautiful entity that I've ever dreamed of
At night I will protect you in your dreams
I will be your angel
You worry so much about not having enough time together
It makes no difference to me
I would be happy with just one minute in your arms
Let's have an extended play together
You're telling me that we live to far to love each other
But your love can stretch further than you and I can see
So how does it make you feel?

Do you know when you look at me
It is a salvation
I've been waiting for you so long
I can drive on that road forever
I wish you could exist to live on my planet
Well it's very hard for me to say these things in your presence
So how does it make you feel?

- Well, I really think you should quit smoking.
