by me

A gente vai continuar

Tira a mão do queixo, não penses mais nisso
O que lá vai já deu o que tinha a dar
Quem ganhou, ganhou e usou-se disso
Quem perdeu há-de ter mais cartas para dar
E enquanto alguns fazem figura
Outros sucumbem à batota
Chega aonde tu quiseres
Mas goza bem a tua rota

Enquanto houver estrada para andar
A gente vai continuar
Enquanto houver estrada para andar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar
A gente não vai parar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar

Todos nós pagamos por tudo o que usamos
O sistema é antigo e não poupa ninguém, não
Somos todos escravos do que precisamos
Reduz as necessidades se queres passar bem
Que a dependência é uma besta
Que dá cabo do desejo
E a liberdade é uma maluca
Que sabe quanto vale um beijo

Enquanto houver estrada para andar
A gente vai continuar
Enquanto houver estrada para andar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar
A gente não vai parar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar

Enquanto houver estrada para andar
A gente vai continuar
Enquanto houver estrada para andar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar
A gente não vai parar
Enquanto houver ventos e mar

de Jorge Palma

nem sei que diga. o melhor é mesmo não dizer nada.

Nothing Really Ends

The plan it wasn't much of a plan
I just started walking
I had enough of this old town
had nothing else to do
It was one of those nights
you wonder how nobody died
we started talking
You didn't come here to have fun
you said: "well I just came for you"
But do you still love me?
do you feel the same
Do I have a chance
of doing that old dance
with someone I've been
pushing away

And touch we touched the soul
the very soul, the soul of what we were then
With the old schemes of shattered dreams
lying on the floor
You looked at me
no more than sympathy
my lies you have heard them
My stories you have laughed with
my clothes you have torn

And do you still love me?
do you feel the same
And do I have a chance
of doing that old dance again
Is it too late for some of that romance again
Let's go away, we'll never have the chance again

You lost that feeling
You want it again
More than I'm feeling
you'll never get
You've had a go at
all that you know
You lost that feeling
so come down and show

Don't say goodbye
let accusations fly
like in that movie
You know the one where Martin Sheen
waves his arm to the girl on the street
I once told a friend
that nothing really ends
no one can prove it
So I'm asking you now
could it possibly be
that you still love me?
And do you feel the same
Do I have a chance
of doing that old dance again
Is it too late for some of that romance again
Let's go away, we'll never have the chance again

I take it all from you
I take it all from you

by Tom Barman


Pois é... será?

É engraçado que esta música foi inicialmente "baptizada" por Evergreen. E foi a primeira música de dEUS com um coro feminino.

If You Gotta Go, Go Now

Listen to me, baby,
There's something you must see.
I want to be with you, gal,
If you want to be with me.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

It ain't that I'm questionin' you.
To take part in any quiz.
It's just that I ain't got no watch
An' you keep askin' me what time it is.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

I am just a poor boy, baby,
Lookin' to connect.
But I certainly don't want you thinkin'
That I ain't got any respect.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

You know I'd have nightmares
And a guilty conscience, too,
If I kept you from anything
That you really wanted to do.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

It ain't that I'm wantin'
Anything you never gave before.
It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon,
It'll be too dark for you to find the door.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

by Bob Dylan.

Uma canção alegre, de cara séria.

Já estou a pensar no próximo SPL. Sugestões?

Em todas as ruas te encontro
em todas as ruas te perco
conheço tão bem o teu corpo
sonhei tanto a tua figura
que é de olhos fechados que eu ando
a limitar a tua altura
e bebo a água e sorvo o ar
que te atravessou a cintura
tanto tão perto tão real
que o meu corpo se transfigura
e toca o seu próprio elemento
num corpo que já não é seu
num rio que desapareceu
onde um braço teu me procura

Em todas as ruas te encontro
em todas as ruas te perco
-- Mário Cesariny (n. 1923)


Pois, eu sei, mas era o poema que gostava de por aqui. Porque tambem gostei. Porque tambem gostas. Mas principalmente porque me faz lembrar de ti.

Roy Lichtenstein
The Red Bard II

Bobby Brown Goes Down

Hey there, people, I'm Bobby Brown
They say I'm the cutest boy in town
My car is fast, my teeth is shiney
I tell all the girls they can kiss my heinie
Here I am at a famous school
I'm dressin' sharp 'n I'm
Actin' cool
I got a cheerleader here wants to help with my paper
Let her do all the work 'n maybe later I'll rape her

Oh God I am the American dream
I do not think I'm too extreme
An' I'm a handsome sonofabitch
I'm gonna get a good job 'n be real rich
(Get a good, get a good, get a good, get a good job)

Women's Liberation
Came creepin' across the nation
I tell you people, I was not ready
When I fucked this dyke by the name of Freddie
She made a little speech then,
Aw, she tried to make me say when
She had my balls in a vice, but she left the dick
I guess it's still hooked on, but now it shoots too quick

Oh God I am the American dream
(P.U.)
But now I smell like Vaseline
An' I'm a miserable sonofabitch
Am I a boy or a lady . . . I don't know which
(I wonder wonder, wonder wonder)

So I went out 'n bought me a leisure suit
I jingle my change, but I'm still kinda cute
Got a job doin' radio promo
An' none of the jocks can even tell I'm a homo
Eventually me 'n a friend
Sorta of drifted along into S&M
I can take about an hour on the tower of power
'Long as I gets a little golden shower

Oh God I am the American dream
With a spindle up my butt till it makes me scream
An' I'll do anything to get ahead
I lay awake nights sayin', "Thank you, Fred!"
Oh God, Oh God, I'm so fantastic!
Thanks to Freddie, I'm a sexual spastic
And my name is Bobby Brown
Watch me now; I'm goin' down,
And my name is Bobby Brown
Watch me now; I'm goin' down,
And my name is Bobby Brown
Watch me now; I'm goin' down

Ha-ha . . .



by Frank Zappa, from Sheik Yerbouati released 1979


DANKE! Herr Kafka

horto



homens cegos procuram a visão do amor
onde os dias ergueram esta parede
intransponível


caminham vergados no zumbido dos ventos
com os braços erguidos - cantam


a linha do horizonte é uma lamina
corta os cabelos dos meteoros - corta
as faces dos homens que espreitam para o palco
nocturno das invisíveis cidades


escorre uma linfa prateada para o coração dos cegos
e o sono atormenta-os com os seus sonhos vazios


adormecem sempre
antes que a cinza dos olhos arda
e se disperse


no fundo do muito longe ouve-se
um lamento escuro
quando a alba se levanta de novo do horto
dos incêndios

proseguem caminho
com a voz atada por uma corda de lírios
os cegos
são o corpo de um fogo lento - uma sarça
que se acende subitamente por dentro





Al Berto
