MODEST MOUSE - "The World At Large"


Ice-age heat wave, can't complain.
If the world's at large, why should I remain?
Walked away to another plan.
Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand.
I move on to another day,
to a whole new town with a whole new way.
Went to the porch to have a thought.
Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop.
You don't know where and you don't know when.
But you still got your words and you got your friends.
Walk along to another day.
Work a little harder, work another way.

Well uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan.
We'll float on maybe would you understand?
Gonna float on maybe would you understand?
Well float on maybe would you understand?

The days get shorter and the nights get cold.
I like the autumn but this place is getting old.
I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast.
It might not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most.
The days get longer and the nights smell green.
I guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave.

I like songs about drifters - books about the same.
They both seem to make me feel a little less insane.
Walked on off to another spot.
I still haven't gotten anywhere that I want.
Did I want love? Did I need to know?
Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow?

The moths beat themselves to death against the lights.
Adding their breeze to the summer nights.
Outside, water like air was great.
I didn't know what I had that day.
Walk a little farther to another plan.
You said that you did, but you didn't understand.

I know that starting over is not what life's about.
But my thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth.
My thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth.
My thoughts were so loud.

EVERYTHING REMINDS ME OF HER - Elliott Smith


I never really had a problem
Because of leaving
But everything reminds me of her
This evening
So if I seem a little out of it
Sorry
Why should I lie?
Everything reminds me of her
The spin of the earth impaled the silhouette of the sun on the steeple
And I've gotta hear the same sermon all the time now from you people
Why are you staring into outer space
Crying
Just because you came across it
And lost it?
Everything reminds me of her
Everything reminds me of her
Everything reminds me of her

Morrissey – America Is Not The World

America, your head's too big
Because America
Your belly's too big
And I love you
I just wish you'd stay where you is 

Oh...in America
The land of the free, they said
And of opportunity
In a just and a truthful way
But where the president
Is never black, female or gay
And until that day
You've got nothing to say to me
To help me believe 

Oh...in America
It brought you the hamburger
Oh well America you know where
You can shove your hamburger
And don't you wonder
Why in Estonia they say
Hey you big fat pig
You fat pig, You fat pig 

Steely blue eyes
With no love in them
Scan The World
And a humorless smile
With no warmth within
Greets the world
And I, I have got nothing
To offer you
No-no-no-no-no
Just this heart, deep and true
Which you say you don't need 

See with your eyes
Touch with your hands, please
Hear through your ears
Know in your soul, please
For haven't you me with you now?
And I love you
I love you
I love you
And I love you
I love you
I love you

I KNOW IT'S OVER - The Smiths


Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
Oh well. Enough said.
I know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Oh ...
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
See, the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me ?
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
Handsome groom, give her room
Loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
(Though she needs you
More than she loves you)
And I know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Over and over and over and over
Over and over, la ...
I know it's over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me, and said :
"If you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very good-looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight ?
I know ...
'Cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms..."
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
Over, over, over, over
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind
Over, over
Love is Natural and Real
But not for you, my love
Not tonight, my love
Love is Natural and Real
But not for such as you and I, my love
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my ...
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can even feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my ...

母さん
泥が僕の頭に降りかかってくるのを感じるよ

からっぽのベッドによじ登ろうとする僕
もう、よせよ

わかってるもう終わってるって
それでもまだ縋りつかずにはいられない
どこにゆけばいいのかもわからない

母さん
土が僕の頭にふりかかるよ

ほら、海が僕を連れ去ろうとしてるよ
ナイフが僕を切り裂きたがってる
君は僕を助けられると思う?

悲しみのヴェイルを纏った花嫁よ
どうか幸せになっておくれ
男前の花婿よ
彼女に居場所を与えてやれ
やかましく無骨な恋人よ
彼女に親切にしてやりな
(彼女は君を愛しているというより君を必要としているだけかもしれないけれど)

もうおしまいだとわかっていても
僕はなおも縋りつかずにはいられない
他にどこにゆけばいいのかもわからない
もうおしまいだとわかってる
でも本当は何も始まっていない
だけど僕の心の中ではいつも現実だった
それに君は僕に話しかけてきてくれさえしたんだ
こんなふうにね

「あなたがそんなにもおもしろい人なら
どうして今夜はひとりぼっちなの?
そんなにも頭がいい人だというなら
どうして今夜はひとりぼっちでいるの
そんなにも一緒にいて楽しい人だというなら
どうして今夜はひとりぼっちでいるの?
そんなにも見目麗しい人だというなら
どうして今夜はひとりぼっちで眠るの?

わかるわ
今夜はいつもと違う特別な夜というわけではないのよね
だから今夜もあなたはひとりぼっちなのよ
自分の魅力と勝ち誇った気持ちを持て余しながらもひとりぼっちなのよ
皆は誰かの腕に抱かれているというのにね」


笑うなんてたやすい事
憎むのも簡単
でも優しくて思いやりがあるようになるにはちょっとした努力が必要
何度も何度も すぐに諦める事なく

笑うなんて簡単
憎むのも簡単
でも優しくて思いやりがあるようになるにはガッツがいる
何度も何度も諦めずに

愛は自然で真実
だけどそれは君のためのものじゃないよね
今夜も違うさ、愛しい人

愛は自然で真実
でも君や僕のためのものじゃないんだ,僕の愛する人よ

ああ,母さん、僕の頭に汚物が降りかかって
僕を埋めてしまうよ
ああかあさん、
泥が、僕にふりかかり僕を埋めてしまうよ・・・・・・

Elliot Smith - Between The Bars

drink up, baby, stay up all night
the things you could do, you won't but you might
the potential you'll be, that you'll never see
the promises you'll only make

drink up with me now and forget all about the pressure of days
do what I say and I'll make you okay and drive them away
the images stuck in your head

people you've been before that you don't want around anymore
that push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still

drink up, baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again between the bars where I'm seeing you
there with your hands in the air, waiting to finally be caught

drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
keep you apart deep in my heart separate from the rest
where I like you the best and keep the things you forgot

the people you've been before that you don't want around anymore
that push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still 

Marianne Faithfull " Last Song "

Lost his own, taken down
all his songs
till his all alone
and all our love was harmed
'cept for you

I'm only young, favourite son
say you tried, take it back
to where you belong
and all the things you say
still untrue

We saw the green fields
turn into homes
such lonely homes
We saw the green fields
turn into homes
such lovely homes

Do what you want to do!

I was digging up, sorting out,
only to built a song alone
till you came along
but all my love was there
just all for you
And in the darkest time
we crossed the line
made a song
cause all the talk was wrong
and all you ever won
can still be true

We saw the green fields
turn into homes
such lonely homes
We saw the green fields
turn into stone
such lonely homes

We saw the green fields
turn into homes
such lovely homes
We saw the green fields
turn into stone
such lonely stone

Now all my love is out
It's just for you

It's not a love song 
It's the last song for you

Morrissey – The National Front Disco

David, the wind blows 
The wind blows
Bits of your life away 
Your friends all say
"Where is our boy? Oh, we've lost our boy" 
But they should know 
Where you've gone 
Because again and again you've explained that 
You're going to

Oh, you're going to
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
England for the English! 
England for the English! 

David, the winds blow 
The winds blow
All of my dreams away 
And I still say
"Where is our boy? 
Ah, we've lost our boy" 
But I should know 
Why you've gone 
Because again and again you've explained
You've gone to the

National, ah
To the National
There's a country; you don't live there 
But one day you would like to 
And if you show them what you're made of 
Oh, then you might do

But David, we wonder 
We wonder if the thunder 
Is ever really gonna begin 
Begin, begin 
Your mom says
"I've lost my boy" 
But she should know 
Why you've gone 
Because again and again you've explained 
You've gone to the 

National 
To the National 
To the National Front disco 
Because you want the day to come sooner 
You want the day to come sooner 
You want the day to come sooner 
When you've settled the score 

Oh, the National [Repeat: x5]
