The Next Day



E esta é a minha penúltima postagem neste infame blog e mantendo a tradição encerro com música! Desta vez com David Bowie! Eu estava pensando em colocar alguma música antigas mas pra quê colocar músicas antigas se as músicas do álbum The Next Day são fodonas? Cara, é muito bom ver caras como David Bowie e Bob Dylan na ativa fazendo trabalhos fodas e inovadores que dão uma surra em muito do que tem sido apresentado como música hoje em dia. Então que venha o dia seguinte, e o próximo e o outro dia!

The Next Day

Look in to my eyes he tells her
I'm gonna say goodbye he says yea
Do not cry she begs of him goodbye yea
All that day she thinks of his love yea

They whip him through the streets and alleys there
The gormless and the baying crowd right there
They can't get enought of that doomsday song
They can't get enought of it all

Listen

Listen to the whores he tells her
He fashions paper sculptures of them
Then drags them to the river's bank in the cart
Their soggy paper bodies wash ashore in the dark
And the priest stiff in hate now demanding fun begin
Of his women dressed as men for the pleasure of that priest

Here I am
Not quite dying
My body left to rot in a hollow tree
Its branches throwing shadows
On the gallows for me
And the next day
And the next
And another day

Ignoring the pain of their particular diseases
They chase him through the alleys chase him down the steps
They haul him through the mud and they chant for his death
And drag him to the feet of the purple headed priest

First they give you everything that you want
Then they take back everything that you have
They live upon their feet and they die upon their knees
They can work with satan while they dress like the saints

They know god exists for the devil told them so
They scream my name aloud down into the well below

Here I am
Not quite dying
My body left to rot in a hollow tree
Its branches throwing shadows
On the gallows for me
And the next day
And the next
And another day
David Bowie- The Next Day
