A Cannon
- Regina Spektor -

A cannon was fired by the light of the moon
I'm waiting, the boat should be here very soon
And I mind less and less all the silly
pictures that hang round my room, for now

I write you a letter
I hope you feel better
I hope you forgive the transgretions
I've given you love
And i've given you anger as well
And I meant them both

I always knew it was coming this way
Was coming this way
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away
Take me away

I stood on my bed
Then I slipped in my dress
Then I ran through the halls
Like a ghost
And in case someone heard me
I grabbed the big dagger that I'd never use
Unless

Barefeet on the cobblestones street
Then a peach
Then a splash
Then my ankles
My knees
Then my thighs
And my eyes open-wide
I threw myself right into the sea

And I could see it was coming my way
Was coming my way
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away
Take me away
Take me away

I've woken up once
And i've twice
And i've woken up millions and millions of times
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water

I would if I could
But I can't so I don't
My heart breaks too easy
My words get all jumbled
And when I wear lipstick
Then no-one understands me at all

They think I'm saying hello and goodbye
Hello and goodbye
What I'm really saying is
(whispering)

They think I'm saying hello and goodbye
Hello and goodbye and hello
What I'm really saying is
(whispering)

I've woken up once
And i've woken twice
And i've woken up millions and millions of times

Little Red

Dedico essa música à Bemba. E como ela nunca entra aqui por livre e espontânea vontade, vou ter de obrigá-la a fazê-lo pra que ela veja isso xD

Little Red
- Kate Nash -

Everybody took everything that they could, and they
Made a little town, out of stones and out of wood, and they
Made a little king, out of plasticine, and they
Threw the rules away, but they kept the wisdom in.
And all of the birds and the bees lived so peacefully.
And all of the babies, they slept so gently.
Until..

Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red
Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Red Little Little red came knocking.

Little garden how do I make your flowers grow, when I already do everything that I know.I bring you sunshine and I bring you rain, but still you refrain.
All the other gardens are so full of flowers.
They're so colourful yet I spend all these hours, trying to make you as beautiful as them, but still you refrain.

Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Scratch x 4

Oh, lets pack a picnic and well go for a drive. Well go to a funfair and go on all the rides. Well climb up a mountain and well take in the sights, well jump in a plane and fly. If you want you can come back to mine. Well drink some coffee and you can spend the night. Well do anything that makes you smile, cause your smile is beautiful and it makes me happy, cause your smile is beautiful and it makes me happy

This Little Girl She grew up and moved away and she
She lived her life full of risk and full of play and she
She lived her life, with so much to say, and
Her flowers they grow more beautiful everyday

Mariella

Kate Nash, meu mais novo amor *.*
Ela tem umas letras boas, outras fodas e outras que se encaixam na situação.
Mas escolhi postar Mariella, por motivos que nem todos entenderão xD
(não sei o motivo, mas tenho uma certa tara por músicas sobre personagens)

Mariella
- Kate Nash -

I'm heavy handed
To say the least
My mother thinks
I'll be an awful clutcher
'Cause I spill things from stirring 'em too quickly
I'm far too loud
It's like, as soon as I've got an opinion
It just has to come out
I laugh at stupid things
Just 'cause they tickle me

And
Sometimes I wish
Sometimes I wish I was like Mariella
She got some prittstick
And she glued her lips together
So she never had to speak
Never had to speak
Never had to speak
People used to say she's as quiet as a mouse
She just doesn't make a peep

She marched to her wardrobe
And threw away the colour
Because wearing black looks mysterious
But it didn't impress her mother
She wanted to dress her baby
In patterns and flowers
But Mariella just crossed her arms
And so she cried for hours

Mariella, Mariella
My pretty baby girl
Unglue your lips from being together and
And wear some pink and pearls
You can have your friends 'round
And they can stay for tea
Won't you just try to fit in please
Do this for me

But Mariella just crossed her arms
As she walked up the stairs
And she went into her bedroom
And she sat on her bed
And she looked in the mirror
And she thought to herself
"If I wanna play, I can play with me
If I wanna think, I'll think in my head"

At school, Mariella didn't have many friends
Yeah the girls they all looked at her
And they thought she was quite strange
And the boys they're not really into girls at that age
And the teachers, they thought Mariella was just going through a phase.
But Mariella just smiled as she skipped down the road
Because she knew all the secrets in her world
Yes, she always got the crossword puzzle right everyday
And she could do the alphabet backwards
Without making any mistakes

Mariella, Mariella
Pretty, pretty girl
Mariella, Mariella
Happy in her own little world
Happy in her own little world

And she said
Yeah I'm never ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Yeah I'm never ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Yeah I'm never ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Gonna unglue my lips from being together
She said I'm never ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Yeah I'm never ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
Gonna unglue my lips from being together

Come on home

Porque Franz é simplesmente foda.

Come on home
- Franz Ferdinand -

Although my lover lives
In a place that I can't live
I kind of find I like a life
This lonely
It rips and pierces me
In places I can't see
I love the rip of nerves
The rip that wakes me

So I'm dissatisfied
I love dissatisfied
I love to feel there's always more that I need

So come on home
So come on home
So come on - home home

You're where you want to be
I'm where I want to be
Come on we're chasing
Everything we've ever wanted
I Replace you easily
Replace pathetically
I flirt with every flighty thing
That falls my way
But how I needed you
When I needed you
Let's not forget
We are so strong
So bloody strong

Come on home
So come on home
So come on - home, home

Blue light falls
Upon your perfect skin
Falls and you draw back again
Falls and this is how I fell
And I cannot forget this
I cannot forget this

Come on home
So come on home
But don't forget to leave

Doth I protest too much

Doth I protest too much
- Alanis Morissette -

I'm not threatened, by every pair of legs you watch go by
I don't cringe when you stare at women, it's just a thing called guy
I don't notice your side ways glances or where your loyalty lies
I'm secure and out of me, it's hard to get a rise

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved by much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational stays untouched
Doth I protest too much?

I'm not tortured by how often your busy, cause I've got things to do
I'm not disappointed about how you don't miss you me, cause I don't need you to

I'm not needy
I don't get clingy much
I'm not scared
I'm not afraid as such
I'm not dependent
Rock solid, stays untouched
And doth I protest too much?

So much energy to prove to you
Who I can't possibly be
So much energy to prove to you
I'm not who you hate for me to be

I'm not saddened
And I don't miss you
Cause I have moved on too
I'm not concerned about your new lover
Cause I have a new lover too

I'm not depressed
I don't get down that much
I'm not despondent
I am not dark as such
I'm never sad
“keep chin up”, stays untouched
And doth I protest too much?

I'm not jealous
I don't get moved by much
I'm not enraged
Not insecure as such
Not going insane
Rational stays untouched
And doth I protest too much?
