und3rmuzik #11 playground martyrs

no excelente slope, steve jansen propõe-nos duas versões de playground martyrs, belíssima balada em ritmo lento e melancólico, escrita em colaboração com david sylvian. A versão masculina, cantada por david sylvian, surge aproximadamente a meio do alinhamento. a feminina, cantada por nina kinert, cantora sueca a ter bem debaixo de olho, encerra o disco com maestria. a canção acaba, assim, por marcar toda a estrutura de slope, como se encerrasse os lados a e b de um hipotético vinil.






you run to the gates but you'll be marked late
it's for your own good, it's for your own good
you're likely to make the grandest mistake
you suffer alone in the skin and the bone

we'll sharpen those new sets of arrows
for the next generation of playground martyrs
join in the game of intolerable shame
'cause everyone shares in the sins of their fathers

schoolbell rings, single file in
trade you my "unhappily ever after"
so bring out those things to hammer the wings
of the next generation of playground martyrs

und3rmuzak #6 money for all

para entrar em bom ritmo no fim-de-semana, money for all, tema título do ep de 2006 do projecto nine horses. como tudo o que vem de david sylvian e companheiros de viagem, é em grande. diz-se por aí que a letra tem vários ataques/várias referências ao querido presidente dos estados unidos da américa, george w. (de whisky) bush. se não foi intencional, encaixa na perfeição. de qualquer maneira, é sobre algumas das principais e mais estranhas entretenhas do bicho-homem.




wanna step on through, can I check that bag
is there something inside here that could help you relax

did you find something you were looking for
freedom has its price now wanna buy some more

i'll take that coat, remove them shoes
should a guy like me be afraid of a man like you

all change all change

wipe your nation's shame from you
it's not where you're born, it's the things that you do

money for all money for all

revolution, socialism, read it in the rag
there's a gun at your head, put the money in the bag

money for all money for all

have you tried this game when you're feeling tired
keeps you entertained 'till your card expires

so you missed the broadcast or do you feel the same
only someone said this city's gone down in flames in our name

all change all change

let gasoline fumes fill the air
let's show that mother how much you care

all change all change

wipe your nation's shame from you
it's not where you're born,it's the things that you do

money for all money for all

hey there soldier who's your concubine
with a trigger-happy finger and a nicotine flame she's a diamond mine

all change all change

let revolution fill the air
let's show that monkey how much you care

money for all

there's a mean-looking elephant pounding at your door
it's dining at your table, sleeping on your floor

money for all money for all

revolution, socialism, read it in the rag
there's a gun at your head put the money in the bag

la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la put the money in the bag
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la put the money in the bag
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la put the money in the bag

blessed with all the thunder in the world

Riverman

I see your eyes light up like fire
It's medicine to me
But as the hunted live their lives
You're keeping out of reach
So I keep running, falling
Till I reach the water
Run with me holyman
But when I reach out
I find I'm standing right beside her
Now we're living
Blessed with all the thunder in the world

Now, should you ask me to come home
To wake up from the sleep
Like a boat inside a storm
Is there no hope for me?

So I keep running, falling
Wade into the water
Run with me riverman
But when I reach out
I find I'm standing right beside her
Now we're living
Blessed with all the thunder in the world

So I keep running, falling
Till I reach the water
Run with me holyman
But when I reach out
I find I'm standing right beside her
Now we're living
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
