Turn Them Off!

02-08-2008

Howard - Edward George Ruddy died today! Edward George Ruddy was chairman of the board of the Union Broadcasting Systems and he died at 9 o"clock this morning of a heart condition. And woe is us, we’re in a lot of trouble.
So... a rich little man with white hair died. What has that got to do with the price of rice, right? And why is that woe to us? Because you people and million other Americans are listening to me right now. Because less than three per cent of you people read books. Because less than per cent of you read newspapers. Because the only truth you know is what you get over this tube. Right now, there is a whole and entire generation that never knew anything that didn’t come out of this tube. This tube is the gospel! The ultimate revelation! This tube can make or break presidents, popes, prime ministers. It is the most awesome goddamn force in the whole godless world. Woe is us if it falls into the hands of the wrong people. That’s why woe is us that Edward George Ruddy died. Because this company is now in the hands of CCA, the Communication Corporation of America. There’s a new chairman of the board, Frank Hackett, sitting in Mr Ruddy’s office. And when the largest company in the worid controls the most awesome goddamn propaganda force in the whole godless worid,who knows what shit will be peddled for truth on this network. So you listen to me. Listen to me. Television is not the truth. Television’s a goddamned amusement park. Television is a circus, a carnival, a travelling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, sideshow freaks, lion tamers and football players. We’re in the boredom-killing business.
So if you want the truth, go to God. Go to your gurus. Go to yourselves. Because that’s the only place you’re ever going to find any real truth. But, man, you’re never gonna get any truth from us. We’ll tell you anything you wanna hear. We lie like hell. We’ll tell you that Kojak always gets the killer, and that nobody ever gets cancer in Archie Bunker’s house. However much trouble the hero is in, don’t worry. Look at your watch.
At the end of the hour he’s going to win. We’ll tell you any shit you want to hear. We deal in illusions, man. None of it is true.
But you people sit there, day after day, night after night, all ages, colours, creeds. We’re all you know. You’re beginning to believe the illusions we’re spinning. You’re beginning to think the tube is reality and your lives are unreal. You do whatever the tube tells you. You dress like the tube, eat like the tube, raise your children like the tube, think like the tube. This is mass madness, you maniacs. In God’s name, you people are the real thing! We are the illusion! So turn off your television sets.Turn them off now. Turn them off right now! Turn them off and leave them off. Turn them off right in the middle of the sentence I’m speaking now. Turn them off.

The Howling

01-08-2008

We´ve been seeing what you wanted, got us cornered right now
Fallen asleep from our vanity, might cost us our lives
I hear they´re getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They´re coming down the hills from behind

When we start killing
It´s all coming down right now
From the nightmare we´ve created,
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing it all will be falling down
From the Hell that we´re in
All we are is fading away
When we start killing...

We´ve been searching all night long but there´s no trace to be found
It´s like they all have just vanished but I know they´re around
I feel they´re getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They´re coming down the hills from behind

When we start killing
It´s all coming down right now
From the nightmare we´ve created
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing it all will be falling down
From the Hell that we´re in
All we are is fading away
When we start killing...
When we start killing...

I feel they´re getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They´re coming down the hills from behind

The sun is rising
The screams have gone
Too many have fallen
Few still stand tall
Is this the ending of what we´ve begun?
Will we remember what we´ve done wrong?

When we start killing
It´s all coming down right now
From the nightmare we´ve created
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing it all will be falling down
From the Hell that we´re in
All we are is fading away
When we start killing...
When we start killing...
When we start killing...

Homophobia

30-07-2008

What causes homophobia? What is it that makes a heterosexual man worry? I think it's because men know that deep down... we have weak sales resistance. We're constantly buying shoes that hurt us, pants that don't fit right. Men think, "Obviously, I can be talked into anything. What if I accidentally wander into some sort of homosexual store thinking it's a shoe store, and the salesman goes: "Just hold this guy's hand, walk around the store. See how you feel. No obligation, no pressure, just try it. Would you like to see him in a sandal?"

I'm Mad As Hell!!

27-07-2008

"I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work, or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild, and nobody knows what to do. There’s no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat. We sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had homicides and violent crimes, as if that’s the way it should be. We know things are bad. Worse than bad. They’re crazy. Everything is going crazy, so we don’t go out any more. We sit in the house, and the world we live in gets smaller. All we say is "Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms." "Let me have my toaster and my TV and I won’t say anything. Just leave us alone." Well, I’m not going to leave you alone. I want you to get mad!I don’t want you to protest or riot. I don"t want you to write to your congressman. I don’t know what to do about the depressión, the inflation and the crime.
All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad! You’ve gotta say "I’m a human being, goddammit! My life has value!" So... I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it and stick your head out and yell "I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take this any more!" I want you to get up right now... and stick your head out and yell "I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take this any more!" Then we’ll figure out what to do about the depressión, inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out and yell "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this any more!"

The Unborn

26-07-2008


Smell the stench of the human flesh
See the bodies so rotten
The broken arms and the broken legs
No chance to get away from them
A lonely girl standing in the dust
Her eyes are cold and blind
The world is dead, there is no hope
We must never be born

The end of mankind has finally arrived
The voices of death will sing to us all
We have seen the signs in the sky
Yet nothing new has ever been born
We are the ones who will pay in the end
For the crimes and mistakes we made
We don't see it's already too late
It is too late to regret

Stop the game and lay down to the grave
No glory for the weak
Close the door and never open
No hope for the weak
Stop the game and lay down to the grave
No glory for the weak
Close the door and never open
No hope for the weak

You want to dominate and rule this world
But there's nothing for you to rule to
Can't you see, your power is too weak
You are too weak, you are too weak to see
That the game we all are attending
Is so close to it's end now finally
There's only one turn left, but still
We are the ones, we are the ones who will lose

Smell the stench of the human flesh
See the bodies so rotten
The broken arms and the broken legs
No chance to get away from them
A lonely girl standing in the dust
Her eyes are cold and blind
The world is dead, there is no hope
We must never be born

The end of mankind has finally arrived
The voices of death will sing to us all
We have seen the signs in the sky
Yet nothing new has ever been born
We are the ones who will pay in the end
For the crimes and mistakes we made
We don't see it's already too late

Elaine - Why not?
George - What, are you crazy? I can't have a man touching me. Switch with me.
Elaine - I don't want the man either.
George - What's the difference? You're a woman. They're suppsed to be touching you.
Elaine - He'd just be touching your back.
George - He'd just be touching your back too.
Elaine - No, it could get sexual.
George - I know! That's the point. If it's gonna get sexual, it should get sexual with you.
Elaine - I wouldn't be confortable.
George - I would?! What if something happens?

Nigger

23-07-2008

Goddamn my man you see I can't understand
Why you wanna say Nigger to your brother man
Taking black pride then you call yourself a Nigger
Don't bring yourself down cos it just don't figure
Take a look at yourself and your history
You don't look like a goddamn Nigger to me
It's a negative world and the white man made it
Gave you a name to dominate and trade it
Making blood money of his very own race man
And all of this because the colour of your face man

Nigger Nigger Nigger Nigger

Placed and educated in a neighbourhood of crime
Taught from the beginning that you weren't worth time
Liquorstore and gunstore next to one another
With only one purpose so you all kill each other
Leaving one less problem to worry about
That's the way they do it this is how it turns out
And justice for all with the American goverment
I wanna know where all the goddamn money went
We didn't see it and it didn't do no good
I guess you couldn't give a fuck about a black neighbourhood

Nigger Nigger Nigger Nigger Nigger
You're the real Niggers,
You're the real Niggers,
You're the real Niggers

There's always gonna be fanatical minorities
The ku klux klan and fucked up authorities
Conservative cunts and religious preachers
I don't care cos they ain't our teachers
Living a life they say is free from sin
Then they judge another person by the colour of their skin
I feel ashamed of myself I'm a white human being
Surrounded by suckers to afraid to be seeing
There ain't such a thing called superior race
And there ain't nothing special 'bout colour of your face
You've got a one way ticket to a dead end street
The pressure is on so feel the heat
Media pollution is a very bad solution
Hypocriticat hype is your only contribution
So leave us alone and give your brothers some space
Cos you're a lousy contribution to the human race

Howard - Last night I was awakened from a fitful sleep shortly after two o'clock in the morning by a shrill, sibilant, faceless voice. I couldn’t make it out at first, in the dark bedroom. I said "I’m sorry, you will have to talk a little louder." And the voice said "I want you to tell the people the truth." "Not easy, because they don’t wanna know the truth." And I said "You’re kidding? What the hell should I know about the truth?" But the voice said to me" Don't worry about the truth." "I will put the words in your mouth." And I said "What is this? The burning bush?" "I’m not Moses." And the voice said "I’m not God. What has that got to do with it?" The voice said "We’re not talking about
eternal or absolute or ultimate truth." "We're talking about impermanent, transient, human truth." "I don't expect you to be capable of truth, but at least you're capable of self-preservation. "And I said "Why me?" And the voice said "Because you’re on televisión, dummy!" "You have million Americans listening. After this you could have million. " "I’m not asking you to wear sackcloth and ashes, preaching the Armageddon." "You’re on TV, man!" So I thought about it for a moment. And then I said "OK."

Ain't No Nice Guy

20-07-2008

When I was young I was the nicest guy I knew
I thought I was the chosen one
But time went by and I found out a thing or two

My shine wore off as time wore on
I thought that I was living out the perfect life
But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite
I though about the times when I turned my back and stalled
I ain't no nice guy after all

When I was young I was the only game in town
I thought I had it down for sure
But time went by and I was lost in what I'd found
The reasons blurred the way unsure

I thought that I was living life the only way
But as I saw that life was more than day to day
I turned around, I read the writing on the wall
I ain't no nice guy after all,
I ain't no nice guy after all

In all the years you spent between your birth and death
You know there's lots of times when you should have saved your breath
It comes as quite a shock when your trip leads to a wall
I ain't no nice guy after all,
I ain't no nice guy after all

Hey Slasher?
When I was young I was the nicest guy I knew
I thought I was the chosen one
But time went by and I found out a thing or two

My shine wore off as time wore on
I thought that I was living out the perfect life
But in the lonely hours when the moons the only light
I thought about the times when I turned my back and
stalled
I ain't no nice guy after all,
I ain't no nice guy after all

He's The Best

Every time somebody recommends a doctor, he's always the best. "Is he good?""Oh, he's the best!This guy's the best!" They can't be all the best. There can't be this many bests. Someone's graduating at the bottom of these classes. Where are these doctors? Is somewhere someone saying to their friend: "You should see my doctor. He's the worst. Oh yeah, he's the worst. He's the absolute worst there is. Whatever you got, it'll be worse after you see him. He's just a... he's a butcher. The man's a butcher." Then there's always that, "Make sure you tell him that you know me". Why, what's the difference? He's a doctor. What is he...? "Oh you know Bob... okay, I'll give you the real medicine. Everybody else I'm giving Tic Tacs."

bullshit (...) If you don't like the God bullshit, how about the man bullshit? Man is a noble creature who can order his own world, who needs God? (...)

I don't have any bullshit left. I just ran out of it, you see --

Jigsaw

14-07-2008

We are jigsaw pieces aligned on the perimeter edge
Interlocked through a missing piece
We are renaissance children becalmed beneath the bridge of sighs
Forever throwing firebrands at the stonework
We are siamese children related by the heart
Bleeding from the surgery of initial confrontation
Holding the word scalpels on trembling lips

Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye
Stand straight, weve drifted past the point of reasons why
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today
And the problem always seems to be were picking up the pieces on the ricochet
This is the ricochet

Drowning tequila sunsets, stowaways on midnight ships
Refugees of romance plead asylum from the real
Scrambling distress signals on random frequencies
Forever repatriated on guilt laden morning planes
We are pilots of passion sweating the flight on course
To another summit conference, another breakfast time divorce
Screaming out a ceasefire, snowblind in an avalanche zone

Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye, say goodbye
Stand straight, weve drifted past the point of reasons why
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today
And the problem always seems to be were picking up the pieces on the ricochet
This is the ricochet

Are we trigger happy?
Russian roulette in the waiting room
Empty chambers embracing the end
Puzzled visions haunt the ripples of a trevi moon
Dream coins for the fountain or to cover your eyes
We reached ignition point from the sparks of pleasantries
We sensed the smoke advancing from horizons
You must have known that I was planning an escape

Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye, say goodbye
Stand straight, weve drifted past the point of reasons why
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today, starts today
And the problem always seems to be were picking up the pieces on the ricochet
This is the ricochet

Ill be seeing you again, on the ricochet
Will you show me the pieces next time, on the ricochet
Ill be seeing you again, on the ricochet
Theres a problem, theres a ricochet

What My Eyes Have Seen

11-07-2008

I saw the sun today in the usual way
but there`s been an unseen change
and we carry on with our lives, like we`ll live forever
but the fact remains, we`ll continue this way, the only ones to blame
it s time to realize, that we`re in this together

Flying high above blue skies, on wings we`ll never see
knowing only for a while,we try to change our minds
try to face the truth and open up your eyes

It's a sad disgrace, and we`re losing the race
our greed has made us blind
now we`re far beyond our needs
and too late to recover

Flying high above blue skies, on wings we`ll never see
knowing only for a while,we try to change our minds
try to face the truth and open up your eyes
Staring over endless miles, a memory where we have been
hoping we`ll remember, what our eyes have seen

Saw the world today, always spinning away
while the simple fact remains

That the balance of mandkind, will be changed forever
how can we, a society, make ammends to save our race
while we rob our future bilnd, knowing forever

Can`t we remember, we`re in this together
there will not be another way

Flying high above blue skies, on wings we`ll never see
knowing only for a while,we try to change our minds
try to face the truth and open up your eyes
Staring over endless miles, a memory where we have been
hoping we`ll remember, what our eyes have seen

hoping we`ll remember, what our eyes have seen

Jerry: It can't be the nudity. I never got into these terrible fights and misunderstandings when I was changing before gym class.

George: You know what this means? I can't see her anymore either.

Jerry: Why?

George: It's break up by association. Besides, she's mad at me anyway because of my birthday present.

Jerry: What did you end up giving her?

George: 91 dollars.

In The Shadow Of Our Pale Companion

05-07-2008

Through vast valleys I wonder
To the highest peaks
On pathways through a wild forgotten landscape
In search of God, in spite of man
'til the lost forsaken endless. . .
This is where I choose to tread
Fall. . .so shall we fall into the nihil?
The nothingness that we feel in the arms of the pale
In the shadow of the grim companion who walks with us
Here is the landscape
Here is the sun
Here in the balance of the earth
Where is the god?
Has he fallen and abandoned us?
As I'm stalked by the shadow of death's hand
The fire in my heart is forged across the land
Here at the edge of this world
Here I gaze at a pantheon of oak, a citadel of stone
If this grand panorama before me is what you call God. . .
Then God is not dead
I walked down to a river and sat in reflection of what had to be done
An offering of crimson flowed into the water below
A wound of spirit from which it floated and faded away
. . .like every hope I've ever had. . .
. . .like every dream I've ever known. . .
It washed away in a tide of longing, a longing for a better world
From my will, my throat, to the river, and into the sea. . .
. . .wash away. . .
. . .fade away. . .
Here is the landscape
Here is the sun
Here at the edge of the earth
Where is the god?
Has he fallen to ruin?
As I'm stalked by the shadow of death's hand
My heathen pride is scarred across the land

George: You ask me to have lunch, tell me you slept with Elaine, and then say you're not in the mood for details. Now you listen to me. I want details and I want them right now. I don't have a job, I have no place to go. You're not in the mood? Well you get in the mood!

Jerry: All right, okay. We're in the apartment watching TV.

George: Where are you sitting?

Jerry: On the couch.

George: Next to each other?

Jerry: No, separated.

George: Time?

Jerry: About eleven.

George: Okay, go ahead.

Jerry: So she's flipping around the TV, and she gets to the naked station.

George: Oh, see? that's why I don't have cable in my house. Because of that naked station. If I had that in my house, I would never turn it off. I wouldn't sleep, I wouldn't eat. Eventually, firemen would have to break through the door, they'd find me sitting there in my pajamas with drool coming down my face. All right, all right. So you're watching the naked station.

Jerry: And then, somehow, we started talking about, what if we had sex.

George: Boy, these are really bad details.

Jerry: It pains me to say this, but I may be getting to mature for details.

George: Oh I hate to hear this. That kind of growth really irritates me.

Jerry: Well. I'll tell you though. It was really passionate.

George: Better than before?

Jerry: She must've taken some kind of seminar or something.

George: This is all too much. So what are you feeling? What's going on? Are you like a couple again now?

Jerry: Not exactly.

George: Not exactly. What does that mean?

Jerry: Well, we've tried to arrange a situation where we'll be able to do this once in a while and still be friends. (George laughs hysterically and stands out of his seat)

George: Where are you living? Are you here? Are you on this planet? It's impossible. It can't be done.(He sits back down) Thousands of years people have been trying to have their cake and eat it too. So all of a sudden the two of you are going to come along and do it. Where do you get the ego? No one can do it. It can't be done.

Jerry: I think we've worked out a system.

George: Oh, you know what you're like? You're like a pathetic gambler. You're one of those losers in Las Vegas who keeps thinking he's gonna come up with a way to win at blackjack.

Jerry: No, this is very advanced. We've designed at set of rules that we can maintain the friendship by advancing all of the relationship pitfalls.

George: Sure, all right. Tell me the rules.

Jerry: Okay. No calls the next day.

George: (To himself) So you're havin' the sex, next day you don't have to call. That's pretty good. (Back to Jerry) Go ahead.

Jerry: You ready for the second one?

George: I have tell you, I'm pretty impressed with the first one.

Jerry: Spending the night. Optional.

George: No, you see? You got greedy.

Jerry: No, that's the rule. It's optional.

George: I know less about women than... anyone in the world. But one thing I do know is they're not happy if you don't spend the night. I could be a hot, sweaty room with no air conditioning and all they have is a little army cot this wide (Displays with french fry) You're not going anywhere.

Jerry: I think you're wrong.

George: I hope I am.

Amanhã É Sempre Longe Demais

02-07-2008

Pela janela mal fechada
Entra já a luz do dia
Morre a sombra desejada
Numa esperança fugidia

Foi uma noite sem sono
Entre saliva e suor
Com um travo de abandono
E gosto a outro sabor

Dizes-me até amanhã
Que tem de ser que te vais
Porque amanhã sabes bem
É sempre longe demais
Acendo mais um cigarro
Invento mil ideais
Só que amanhã sei-o bem
É sempre longe demais

Pela janela mal fechada
Chega a hora do cansaço
Vai-se o tempo desfiando
Em anéis de fumo baço

Jerry: No, I don't wanna see the naked people.

People Ain't No Good

29-06-2008

People just ain't no good
I think that's welll understood
You can see it everywhere you look
People just ain't no good

We were married under cherry trees
Under blossom we made pour vows
All the blossoms come sailing down
Through the streets and through the playgrounds

The sun would stream on the sheets
Awoken by the morning bird
We'd buy the Sunday newspapers
And never read a single word

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good

Seasons came, Seasons went
The winter stripped the blossoms bare
A different tree now lines the streets
Shaking its fists in the air
The winter slammed us like a fist
The windows rattling in the gales
To which she drew the curtains
Made out of her wedding veils

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good at all

To our love send a dozen white lilies
To our love send a coffin of wood
To our love let aal the pink-eyed pigeons coo
That people they just ain't no good
To our love send back all the letters
To our love a valentine of blood
To our love let all the jilted lovers cry
That people they just ain't no good

It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They can comfort you, some even try
They nurse you when you're ill of health
They bury you when you go and die
It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
They'd stick by you if they could
But that's just bullshit
People just ain't no good

People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good
People they ain't no good at all

Move The Shoes

27-06-2008

"I've been watching women in the department stores. They're trying on clothes, and I've noticed that they do it differently from men. Women don't try on the clothes, they get behind the clothes, you see? They take a dress off the rack, and they hold it up against themself. They can tell something from this. They stick one leg way out 'cause they nedd to know, if some day I'm one-legged, and at a fourty-five degree angle, what am I gonna wear? You never see a man do that. You never see a guy take a suit off the rack, put his head in the neck, and go, "What do you think about this suit? I think I'll get it. Yeah, it looks fine. Put some shoes by the bottom of the pants, I wanna make sure. Yeah, perfect. And what if I'm walking? Move the shoes, move the shoes, move the shoes, move the shoes."

Somewhere In The Jungle

26-06-2008

There it stands way up high
A million bodies piled to the sky
Arms and legs, feet and hands
Impossible to understand

Countless heads, ears and eyes
Never hear, never cry
Tribal chants, tribal war
Tribal death, tribal gore

And the scavengers are feeding
Cuz the killing fields are bleeding
Not a single soul is breathing
Cuz the Serengetti's bleedin'
And the scavengers are feeding
Cuz the killing fields are bleeding
Not a single soul is breathing
Cuz the Serengetti's bleedin'

Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

African genucide
Brother kill brother
Side by side
Wild animals show their teeth
And run away in disbelief

And the scavengers are feeding
Cuz the killing fields are bleeding
Not a single soul is breathing
Cuz the Serengetti's bleedin'
And the scavengers are feeding
Cuz the killing fields are bleeding

Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

Somewhere the rivers
will flow with blood
The mothers will cry their tears
They watch their sons die

Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

Cuz the Serengetti's bleedin'
Listen somewhere in the jungle
You can hear the devil laughing
Somewhere

Somewhere the rivers
will flow with blood
The mothers will cry their tears
They watch their sons die

In another words, it means, spposedly, the best way to get back at someone is just by being happy and successful in your own life. Sounds nice. Doesn't really work on that Charles Bronson kind of level, you what I mean?. You know, those movies where his whole family gets wiped out by some street scum. You think you could go up to him: "Charlie, forget the .357. What you need is a custom-made suit and a convertible. New carpeting. Freench doors, a divan. That'll show those punks"."

Tás a ver?

23-06-2008

Estás a ver o que eu estou a ver?
Estás a ver? estás a perceber?
estás a ouvir o que eu estou a dizer?
Estás a ouvir? Estás a perceber?
Eu tenho visto tanta coisa nesse meu caminho – nessa nossa trilha,
que eu não ando sozinho – tenho visto tanta coisa, tanta cena...
mais impactante do que qualquer filme de cinema
e se milhares de filmes não traduzem, nem reproduzem
a amplitude do que eu tenho visto
não vou mentir pra mim mesmo, acreditando
que uma música é capaz de expressar tudo isso
não vou mentir pra mim mesmo, acreditando
mas eu preciso acreditar na comunicação
mas eu preciso acreditar
não há melhor antídoto pra solidão
e é por isso que eu não fico satisfeito
em sentir o que eu sinto, se o que eu sinto fica só no meu peito
por mais que eu seja egoísta
aprendi a dividir as emoções, e os seus efeitos
sei que o mundo é um novelo, uma só corrente
posso vê-lo por seus belos elos transparentes
mudam cores e valores, mas tá tudo junto
por mais que eu saiba, eu ainda pergunto:

Tás a ver? A vida como ela é
Tás a ver? A vida como tem que ser
Tás a ver? A vida como a gente quer
Tás a ver? A vida pra gente viver

"...Já que a vida é feita de pequenos nadas..."

Tás a ver? a linha do horizonte
a levitar, a evitar que o céu se desmonte?
foi seguindo essa linha que notei
que o mar na verdade é uma ponte
atravessei-a e fui a outros litorais
e no começo eu reparei nas diferenças
mas com o tempo eu percebi, e cada vez percebo mais
como as vidas são iguais, muito mais do que se pensa
mudam as caras /
mas todas podem ter as mesmas expressões
mudam as línguas, mas todas têm
suas palavras carinhosas e os seus calões
as orações e os deuses também variam
mas o alívio que eles trazem vem do mesmo lugar
mudam os olhos e tudo o que eles olham
mas quando molham, todos olham com o mesmo olhar
seja onde for, uma lágrima de dor
tem apenas um sabor e uma única aparência
a palavra saudade só existe em português
mas nunca faltam nomes se o assunto é ausência
solidão apavora, mas a nova amizade encoraja
e é por isso que a gente viaja
procurando um reencontro, uma descoberta
que compense a nossa mais recente despedida
nosso peito muitas vezes aperta, nossa rota é incerta
mas o que não é incerto na vida?

A vida é feita de pequenos nadas
que a gente saboreia mas não dá valor
um pensamento, uma palavra, uma risada
uma noite enluarada ou um sol a se pôr
um bom dia, um boa tarde, um por favor – simpatia é quase amor –
uma luz acendendo, uma barriga crescendo
uma criança nascendo, obrigado, Senhor
seja lá quem for o Senhor
seja lá quem for a Senhora
a quem quiser me ouvir, e a mim mesmo
preciso dizer tudo o que eu estou dizendo agora
preciso acreditar na comunicação
não há melhor antídoto pra solidão
e é por isso que eu não fico satisfeito
em sentir o que eu sinto, se o que eu sinto fica só no meu peito
por mais que eu seja egoísta
aprendi a dividir minhas derrotas, e minhas conquistas
nada disso me pertence
é tudo temporário no tapete voador do calendário
há que temos forças, pra somar e dividir
enquanto estivermos aqui
se me ouvires cantando, canta comigo
se me vires chorando, sorri.

Sitting On Top Of The World

20-06-2008

Well its been a long day but I dont like to moan
Its the middle of summer and Im chilled to the bone
Theres holes in my shoes where the rain comes in
Im sitting on top of the world

Walking in the shadows of empty office blocks
I was talking to a stranger and hes on the rocks
Down on the pavement living in a box
Im sitting on top of the world

Oh no cant anybody see
Its been a bad day and I want a little peace

Oh no wont you please help me
I want to lie down but theres no beds free

Down on the corner theres starry eyed preachers
Rattling cans and pimping jesus
Theres madmen on boxes makig speeches
Im sitting on top of the world

You cant sit in the sunshine or go out after dark
Theres dogs on the loose acting like sharks
Theres psychos on the streets burning winos in the park
Im sitting on top of the world

Oh no I wish I was gone
I want to get going before too long

Oh no I want to leave town
But I cant drive my car cause they put it in the pound

The masters of industry are killing for oil
Theres poison in the air the water and the soil
Were all turning mutant theyre counting up their spoils
Im sitting on top of the world

I turn on the tv and it makes me want to cry
Theres killing and theres torture theres destruction and theres lies
And our leaders talk rubbish and more people die
Im sitting on top of the world

Oh no I cant take anymore
Im shaking all over and my nerves are all raw

Oh no my heads a little sore
I want to get out but I cant find the door

Looking For Love

17-06-2008

I'm tired of waiting
An' closing my eyes
I'm asking myself
Why is it all my horizons
Are so far away

I look in the mirror
Don't like what I see
In my reflection
A stranger is staring at me
Looking for love

The love of a woman
The needs of a man
I try so hard to belive
But I don't understand
The search goes on

But over the mountains
Across the sea
I know love is waiting
I hear it calling to me
Calling my name

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

Alone again, It's always the same
I've just been marking my time
Since the day I was born
With no one to blame

The candle is burning
It's way down low
I just need someone
To show me the way to go
Which way to go.

I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart

I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
Looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart...

you gotta let that devil out
you gotta let that devil
let that devil
let that devil out
oh come on
oh yeah
hey

Appetites

04-06-2008

JERRY: You know, I tell ya, I gotta say that I'm enjoying adulthood. For a lot of reasons. And, I'll tell you reason number one: as an adult, if I want a cookie, I have a cookie, okay? I have three cookies or four cookies, or eleven cookies if I want. Many times I will intentionally ruin my entire appetite. Just ruin it. And then, I call my mother up right after to tell her that I did it. "Hello, Mom? yeah, I just ruined my entire appetite.. cookies." So what if you ruin.. See, because as an adult, we understand even if you ruin an appetite, there's another appetite coming right behind it. There's no danger in running out of appetites. I've got millions of them, I'll ruin them whenever I want!

Words I Might Have Ate

02-06-2008

Now it seems I can't keep my mind of you
My brain drifts back to better days we've been through
Like sitting on blacktop of the school grounds
The love I witched about I finally found

But now it's gone and I take the blame
So there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

Now I dwell on what you remind me of
A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love
As for me... I am blind without a cause
And now I reazlied what I have lost

It was something real that I could have had
Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad
Why?

Tell me the words I might have said
That's pumping pressure deep inside my head
Was it bad enough to be too late?
Just tell me the words I might have ate

But now it's gone and I take the blame
So there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

Security System

01-06-2008

JERRY: People are going to steal from you. You can't stop them. But, everybody has their own little personal security things - things that they think will foil the crooks, you know? In your own mind, right? ..You go to the beach, go in the water, put your wallet in the sneaker. Who's gonna know? What criminal mind could penetrate this fortress of security? I tied a bow. They can't get through that. I put the wallet down by the toe of the sneaker. They never look there. They check the heel, they move on.

Blue World

30-05-2008

Heart and soul took control
Took control of me
Paid my dues spread the news
Hands across the sea
Put me down turned me round
Turned me round to see
Marble halls open doors
Someone found the key
And it's only what you do
That keeps coming back on you
And it's only what you say
That can give yourself away

Underground sight and sound
human Symphony
Heard the voice had no choice
needed to be free
Fly me high touch the sky
Left the earth below
Heard the line saw the sign
Knew which way to go
Cos it's easier to try
Than to prove it can't be done
And it's easier to stay
Than to turn around and run

It's a blue world
It takes somebody to help somebody
Oh it's a blue world
It's a new world
It needs somebody to love somebody
Oh it's a blue world

Heart and soul took control
Took control of me
Paid my dues spread the news
Hands across the sea
Put me down turned me round
Turned me round to see
Marble halls open doors
Someone found the key
And it's only what you do
That keeps coming back on you
And it's only what you say
That can give yourself away
Cos it's easier to try
Than to prove it can't be done
And it's easier to stay
Than to turn around and run

It's a blue world
It takes somebody to help somebody
Oh it's a blue world
It's a new world
It needs somebody to love somebody
Oh it's a blue world
It's a blue world
It takes somebody to help somebody
Oh it's a blue world
It's a new world
It needs somebody to love somebody
Oh it's a blue world

The Maid Complex

29-05-2008

JERRY: I don't really feel that comfortable with a maid, either, because there's that guilt when you have someone cleaning your house. You know, you're sitting there on your sofa, and they go by with the vacuum, "I'm really sorry about this. I don't know why I let that stuff over there." And that's why I could never be a maid, because I'd have an attitude. I'd find them, whereever they are in the house, "Oh, I suppose you couldn't do this? No, don't get up, let me clean up your filth. No, you couldn't dust. No, this is too tough, isn't it"?

Edge Of The World

27-05-2008

In the city of Angels, the city of sin,
Who will survive (and) who's gonna win
Who's been the joker and who's been the fool
The game in the night has its own passion rule

We're losing our minds
Losing (our) souls
Who will restrain
Who can't let go

We're riding on, on the edge of the world
We're riding on, on the edge of the world
We're riding on

Take care of your body, take care of your skin
Don't turn out the lights or you'll never win
Be hunter or hunted in the streets of the night
Don't lose your control and try to survive

We're losing our minds
Losing (our) souls
Who will restrain
Who can't let go

We're riding on, on the edge of the world
We're riding on, on the edge of the world
We ride
We're riding on

We ride
We ride the edge of the world
We're riding on, on the edge of the world
We're riding on, on the edge of the world
The edge of the world

RAVA: Well, if they don't let you be my editor on this book, I'll go to another publisher. It's that simple.

ELAINE: You told them that?

RAVA: Of course.

ELAINE: This is so fantastic. I don't know how to thank you.

(Jerry enters for the bedroom carrying luggage)

JERRY: (Frantic) So, where's this boyfriend of yours? I can't wait much longer. I've got a flight.

ELAINE: Oh, probably caught in traffic.

RAVA: (Serious) Or maybe he's dead.

JERRY: (Joking) So what do you write, children's books?
