STEP WITH ME

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)


Is this happening to me?
Have I lost all my defenses?
Should I wait around and see
What it's like to lose my senses?
Always looking for the chase
From the high ground to the ditches
But the chase I'll never miss
Now I know what happiness is

This love's delicious
Like home-cooked dishes
I'm tasting mischievously

Step 1, come a little closer
Step 2, rest upon my shoulder
Step 3, I'm calling you baby
Three steps away from me

Step 4, we can get married
Step 5, top it with a cherry
Step 6, as good as it gets
Now come along and step with me

Sun is shining up ahead
In thirty years we'll still be happy
Making movies in my head
Making Hollywood look tiny
Don't know why but all your words
Sound just like a melody
From the pieces that I've heard
I could build a symphony

This love's delicious
Like home-cooked dishes
I'm tasting mischievously

Step 1, come a little closer
Step 2, rest upon my shoulder
Step 3, I'm calling you baby
Three steps away from me

Step 4, we can get married
Step 5, top it with a cherry
Step 6, as good as it gets
Now come on and step with me

Step 1, I don't even know you
Step 2, come a little closer
Step 3, you can't even see you're
Three steps from loving me

Step 1, come a little closer
Step 2, rest upon my shoulder
Step 3, I'm calling you baby
Three steps away from me

Step 4, we can get married
Step 5, top it with a cherry
Step 6, as good as it gets
Now come along and step with me

Three steps three steps

POPULAR SONG

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

(Album Version)

Psychotic Barney Mika Rap

Laa laa, laa laa

You were the popular one, the popular chick
It is what it is, now I'm popular b*tch
Standing on the field with your pretty pom-pom
Now you're working at the movies selling popular corn

I could've been a mess but I never went wrong
'Cause I'm putting down my stories in a popular song
Mh, Ah, Oh
Said I'm putting down my story in a popular song

My problem
I never was a model
I never was a scholar
You were always popular

You were singing
All the songs i don't know
Now you're in the front row
'Cause my song is popular

Popular, I know about popular
It's not about who you are or your fancy car
You're only ever who you were

Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do is be true to you
That's all you ever need to know

Catch up! 'Cause you got an awful long way to go
Catch up! 'Cause you got an awful long way to go

Always on the lookout for someone to hate
Picking on me like a dinner plate
I hid during classes and in between them
Dunk me in the toilets now it's you that cleans them

You're tryin' to make me feel bad with the sh*t you do
It ain't so funny when the joke's on you
Ooh, the joke's on you
And everyone's laughing
Got everyone clapping, asking
How come you look so cool
'Cause that's the only thing that I learned at school
What? Uh-huh
So that's the only thing that I learned at school

My problem
I never was a model
I never was a scholar
You were always popular

You were singing
All the songs i don't know
Now you're in the front row
'Cause my song is popular

Popular, I know about popular
It's not about who you are or your fancy car
You're only ever who you were

Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do is be true to you
That's all you ever need to know

Catch up! 'Cause you got an awful long way to go
Catch up! 'Cause you got an awful long way to go

Before the next time that you call him crazy, lazy
A faggot or that fugazi
Here's the one thing that's so amazing
It ain't a bad thing to be a loser baby

All you ever need to know
You're only ever who you were

All you ever need to know
You're only ever who you were

All you ever need to know

Popular, I know about popular
It's not about who you are or your fancy car
You're only ever who you were

Popular, I know about popular
And all that you have to do is be true to you
That's all you ever need to know

All you ever need to know
You're only ever who you were
(repeat)

EMILY

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

Emily can't you write a happy song
Get your ass to number one
You could try a little harder
Emily you could be a millionaire
But you're so full of hot air
Gonna end up like your father

Emily you can't leave your life to chance
Get a boy and learn to dance
Be a girl like any other
Emily are you stuck up, are you gay?
If you are well that's okay
Cause it doesn't even matter

Emily
Emily it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emily take my hand
Emily I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Emily you got so much in your life
Me I got no one's advice
Don't you know you got it easy
Emily what you smoking, what's that stench
Who you screaming at in French
Did you really think you had me

Emily that’s enough, do as you’re told
Acting like you're eight years old
I give up it's not worth trying
Emily one day I will end up dead
That's the only thing I said
That would ever get her smiling

Emily
Emily it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emily take my hand
Emily I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Emily you live your life in a balloon
Lock yourself up in your room
So the world can never reach ya
Emily am I speaking Japanese
Got me falling on my knees
Got me praying to St. Peter

Emily see the price I had to pay
I would give my life away
If I knew that I could reach her
Emily why'd you make this hard for me
It's not the way it's meant to be
I don't ever wanna hate ya

Emily dance
Emily dance dance dance
Emily dance
Emily dance dance dance
Emily dance
Emily dance dance dance
Emily dance dance dance dance dance dance dance

Emily
Emily it's your life
And you can't live it twice
One day you'll understand
Emily take my hand
Emily I love you
And I know you do too
You never make no sense
Screaming at me in French

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie
Shut up listen to me
Dance with me Emily

Emily dance

HEROES

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

The kids in their hundreds tomorrow
Will march through the door
They're fighting someone else's war
They'll have so many stories to tell
In exchange for a hero's farewell

I wish I could
I wish I could make you return
And what if I'll never discern
As you walk to the toll of the bell
You'll be fighting for our heaven with hell

And you don't understand
Why no one else can see
Your blood on me
And my blood on you
But to make you bleed
The only thing I wouldn't do

And you know
Heroes aren't meant to survive
So much harder to love when alive
Walk with the devil in your head
You would think you were better off dead

And you don't understand
Why no one else can see
Your blood on me
And my blood on you
But to make you bleed
The only thing I wouldn't do

Where can you go?
We fight we earn
We never learn
And through it all
The hero falls

I wish there was a way
To give you a hand to hold
Cause you don't have to die in your glory
Die To never grow old

Your blood on me
And my blood on you
But to make you bleed
The only thing I wouldn't do

Your blood on me
And my blood on you
But to make you bleed
The only thing I wouldn't do

Where can you go

Where can you go
We fight we earn
We never learn
And through it all
The hero falls

CELEBRATE

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

I want the whole world to celebrate
Let's go

I wanna come home
To the only place I know
Where the trees I planted grow
I wanna come home

Once I get up I feel better
Then I pull myself together
I remember those two letters
It will be OK
Everyone says now or never
I say only if it's better
Being hurt like this forever
For me no way

I want the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate

I want the whole world to celebrate

I'll be just fine
When I see you at the finish line
Doesn't matter if I take my time
I'm coming home

Once I get up I feel better
And I pull myself together
I remember those two letters
It will be OK
Everyone says now or never
I say only if it's better
Being hurt like this forever
Will be no way

I want the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate

I'm not mad at you at all

But I want the whole world to celebrate

Yeah
Mmmm

Right about now it's time for everybody to stand up
stand up
stand up
and have fun
'cause we just begun

I want the whole world to celebrate

Let's go

Once I get up I feel better
Then I pull myself together
I remember those two letters
It will be OK
Everyone says now or never
I say only if it's better
Being hurt like this forever

I want the whole world to celebrate

I wanna go home
I wanna go home
I wanna go home

And celebrate

I'll get the whole world to celebrate
I want the whole world to celebrate

TAH DAH

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

It's getting harder and harder to bear
You got me acting like a clown in a collar
You got me spending all the time I can spare
You got me wasting every dime every dollar

When I stumble and fall
Does it hurt you at all
Will it twist like a knife
For the rest of your life

You think that love's a joke
But there ain't too much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after
Or should I just go
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen
Tah Dah!

You got me jumping through a circle of fire
You got me juggling everything that I care for
In your world is like a cage with a tiger
That's what the cuts and all the bruises are there for
When I stumble and fall
Does it hurt you at all?
Will it twist like a knife
For the rest of your life?

You think that love's a joke
But there ain't too much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after or should i just go?
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen

I've got the freedom to love
I've got the freedom to leave
Well now enough is enough
I'm not a trick up your sleeve
I'm not a part of your show
Can't make me pop up and go
One day your curtain will close
I've got to let you know x3

You think that love's a joke
But there ain't too much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after
Or should I just go
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen

Tah Dah !!

Live Your Life

 

(SONG DISCUSSION THREAD HERE)

You've got the whole world in your pocket

But you just don't know

Everybody's smilin' at you everywhere you go

It's like you've got that secret that

Everybody else wants to know

 

Anywhere you are is just like home to you

From the beaches of Manila

Down to Katmandu

 

Yeah you've got that secret that

Everybody else wants to know

But you won't ever let it go oh

 

Everybody wanna hold your hand

Everybody wanna shine that bright

Everybody wanna say they can

Everybody wanna live your life

 

Everybody wanna talk like you

Only wanna do the things you do

'Cause they know it's gonna turn out right

Everybody wanna live your life

 

We take a whole room full of strangers

And we make them friends

We do it all around the world

Just so it never ends

It don't matter where we're coming from or going to

You're the only one that ever turns a grey sky blue

And everybody needs a friend like you

 

Everybody wanna hold your hand

Everybody wanna say they can

Everybody wanna live your life

Everybody wanna shine that bright

Everybody wanna say they can

Everybody wanna live your life

 

Everybody wanna talk like you

Only wanna do the things you do

'Cause they know it's gonna turn out right

Everybody wanna live your life

Ma Jeunesse

 

Elle était brune aux yeux noirs
On a grandi ensemble
Je la snobais dans le miroir
Je n'aimais pas qu'on se ressemble

Elle m'ennuyait avec sa gueule
De petite fille insolente
Je la laissais traîner toute seule
J'avais honte qu'elle me colle autant

Je la vois qui s'en va comme une enfant sage
Qui ne fait qu'obéir et tourner les pages
Maintenant j'aurais bien tout mon temps pour elle
Moi qui ne l'ai jamais trouvé aussi belle

Pour faire plus vieux qu'elle
Je changeais ma voix
C'est vrai je la trouvais
Trop jeune pour moi
Sans un mot comme ça
Elle change d'adresse
Et voilà qu'elle s'en va
Ma jeunesse

Avec un autre que moi
Et plus jeune évidemment
Elle se fait la malle encore une fois
Il ne la gardera pas longtemps

Je la vois qui s'en va comme une enfant sage
Qui ne fait qu'obéir et tourner les pages
Maintenant j'aurais bien tout mon temps pour elle
Moi qui ne l'ai jamais trouvé aussi belle

Pour faire plus vieux qu'elle
Je changeais ma voix
C'est vrai je la trouvais
Trop jeune pour moi
Sans un mot comme ça
Elle change d'adresse
Et voilà qu'elle s'en va
Ma jeunesse

Pour faire plus vieux qu'elle
Je changeais ma voix
C'est vrai je la trouvais
Trop jeune pour moi
Sans un mot comme ça
Elle change d'adresse
Et voilà qu'elle s'en va
Ma jeunesse

Et voilà qu'elle s'en va
Ma jeunesse

Boum Boum Boum

(We're talking about the song HERE!)

LYRICS:

(meme les Americains comprennent)

Qu’importe l’endroit, le contexte
On a toujours un bon prétexte
Pour tomber nos « fruit of the loom »
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Quand t’es pas là, j’fais n’importe quoi
J’prends des kilos, des tequilas
Je chante les chansons d’Oum Kalthoum
Je ne pense qu’à nos boum boum boum

Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème
Se demandent pourquoi je t'aime
Pour le voir pas besoin d'un zoom
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum

Hier on était chez ta mère,
elle a failli tomber par terre
En entrant dans le dressing room
quand toi et moi on faisait boum boum boum

Dans les ascenseurs des hotels
On sait monter au 7ème ciel
On envoie balader les grooms
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème
Se demandent pourquoi je t'aime
Pour le voir pas besoin d'un zoom
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum

Quand on reçoit des invités
On ne sait meme pas résister
Entre le thé et les Lookoums
Y a le temps d'faire boum boum boum

C'est vrai que les murs ont des oreilles,
Que tous les voisins se réveillent
Mais c'est comme ça qu'on fait l'amour
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème
Se demandent pourquoi je t'aime
Pour le voir pas besoin d'un zoom
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

S'aimer comme ça, c'est pas vulgaire
On a toujours un truc à faire,
Les étagères font badaboum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum !


Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum

Un plus un, ça fait toujours deux
Deux plus deux ça fait tout ce qu’on veut
C’est comme les coups de Brahim Asloum
Toi plus moi ça fait boum boum boum

Pas la peine d’aller cavaler
Y a que ça qui me fait voyager
Pas les cocotiers de Touloum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème
Se demandent pourquoi je t'aime
Pour le voir pas besoin d'un zoom
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

S'aimer comme ça, c'est pas vulgaire
On a toujours un truc à faire
Les étagères font badaboum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum !

Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum

Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Boum boum, boum boum boum
Quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum !


English:

No matter the place, the context
We always have a good excuse
To drop our "Fruit of the Loom" (boxers / underwear)
When you and I make boom boom boom
When you are not there I do stupid things
I eat too much, I drink tequila
I sing the songs of Oum Kalthoum
I think only of our boom boom boom

And all the bourgeois of the 16th (of Paris) wonder why I love you
There's no need to use a zoom when you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom

Yesterday we were at your mother's, she almost fell on the floor
When she came into the dressing room when you and I were doing boom boom boom
In the elevator of the hotel we went to 7th heaven
We got rid of the bellhops when you and I make boom boom boom
All the bourgeois of the 16th wonder why I love you
We don't need a zoom when you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom

When we had guests we couldn't resist
Between the tea and the Loukoums (Turkish delight)
there’s still time to make boom boom boom
It is true that the walls have ears, that all the neighbors wake up
But this is the way we make love when you and I make boom boom boom
And all the bourgeois of the 16th wonder why I love you
There's no need to use a zoom when you and I make boom boom boom
To love like that, it’s not vulgar
We always have something to do
The shelves go bada-boom
When you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom

When you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom

One plus one always makes two
Two plus two is all you want
It's like the blows of Brahim Asloum (a boxer)
You plus me go boom boom boom
There's no need to rush about
There's nothing to make me travel
Not to see the coconut palms of Touloum
It's when you and I make boom boom boom
And all the bourgeois of the 16th wonder why I love you
There's no need to use a zoom when you and I we make boom boom boom
To love like that, it’s not vulgar
We always have something to do
The shelves go bada-boom
When you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom

When you and I make boom boom boom

boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom
boom boom, boom boom boom

When you and I make boom boom boom

GOOD GUYS

 

(We're talking about the song HERE.)

 

 

It's not the cowboys that are missing anymore.
That problem was already old in '94.
Don't be offended this might seem a little wrong
Where have all the gay guys gone?

To the romance when I was 14 years old,
To my heroes that were dressed up in gold.
Only hoping one day I could be so bold.
Where have all the gay guys gone?

Chorus:
|: If we are all in the gutter
It doesn't change who we are
'Cause some of us in the gutter
Are looking up at the stars. :|
Tell me |: Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone? :|

Thank you Rufus, thank you Auden and James Dean,
Thank you Emerson and Bowie for my dreams.
Wilfred Owen, Kinsey, Whitman and Rimbaud.
Thank you Warhol, thank you patience, thank you Porter and Cocteau.

Chorus

Chorus

It's not the cowboys that are missing anymore,
That problem was already old in '94.
Don't be offended, this might seem a little wrong
Where have all the good guys gone?

TALK ABOUT YOU

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

Walk through the city like stupid people do
A million faces, but all I'm seeing is you
I'm stopping strangers and telling them your name
Convincin' haters, one day they'll feel the same

We're common people, we're common people in love
It's supernatural, it's just a force from above
Some call me crazy, some try to make me shut up
If I am crazy, that's what you made me

I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
Yeah it's true, all I do is wanna talk about you

Walk through the jungle that used to be my town
Everything's different, you've turned it upside down
It happened to me, totally unprepared
Just the beginning, but I'm not even scared

'Cause living like this is risking all that I know
And if it kills me, that's the way I wanna go
So pull me under, and put me under your spell
Rather be crazy, than normal people in hell

I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
Yeah it's true, all I do is wanna talk about you
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
Yeah it's true, all I do is wanna talk about you

I wanna talk about you
I wanna talk about you
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
All I do is wanna talk about you

Walk through the city, like normal people do
But all I'm seeing is you

I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
Yeah it's true, all I do is wanna talk about you
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
Yeah it's true, all I do is wanna talk about you

I wanna talk about you
I wanna talk about you
I said you're the only one I wanna talk about
All I do is wanna talk about you

LAST PARTY

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

 

There's a party going on in here
It's been happening for many years
You weren't invited and don't want to stay
But keep partying anyway
DJ's playing that familiar tune
Got them dancing, shaking up the room
They hear the beat but they don't know the words
This is the saddest song I've ever heard

If you could look into the future, would ya?
if you could see it, would you even want to?
Got a feeling that there's bad news coming
But I don't want to find it out

If it's the end of the world let's party
Like it's the end of the world let's party
Wrap your arms around everybody
If we're all gonna die let's party
Let's party
Let's party

Who can I blame with everything I've done
Is this the price we pay for too much fun
Don't be misled it's not a twist of fate
It's just what happens when you stay out late
So raise your glasses all my kings and queens
Smash the chandelier to smithereens
Who knew that mercury could rise so fast
Enjoy the party 'cause this is our last

If you could look into the future, would ya?
if you could see it, would you even want to?
Got a feeling that there's bad news coming
But I don't want to find it out

If it's the end of the world let's party
Like it's the end of the world let's party
Wrap your arms around everybody
If we're all gonna die let's party

If it's the end of the world let's party
Like it's the end of the world let's party
Wrap your arms around everybody
If we're all gonna die let's party
Let's party
Let's party
Let's party
Let's party

There's a party going on in here
It's been happening for many years
And even if it all goes bad
It was the best time we ever had

J'ai pas envie

 

We're talking about the song HERE.

 

Tu m'as offert des roses, Je t'ai envoyé dessus

T'as voulu  faire une pause, J'ai dit on continu

T'as voulu la campagne, On habite à Paris

Tu dis non, Moi je dis oui

T'as voulu du Gaisbourg, Je t'ai mis Booba

T'as voulu faire l'amour, On a fait la zumba

T'as voulu un garçon, On l'a appelé Susie

Tu dis non, Je dis oui

 

Dire "je t'aime", c'est pas ça le problème 

Ecoute moi quand j'te dis, que j'ai pas envie

J'ai pas envie (non j'ai pas envie)

Comme les maris, qui disent oui

J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie de te faire plaisir

J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, si tu m'aimes viens me le dire 

En chantant, Tu dis l'amour c'est pas ça mais tu vois

Je suis pas le con que tu crois, cette chanson elle est pour toi

 

T'as voulu le Pérou, t'as eu que le bonnet

T'as voulu la grande roue, t'as eu le tourniquet 

T'as voulu un amant, j'ai dis c'est ce qu'on va voir

Tu dis blanc, moi je dis noir

 

Dis je t'aime, c'est pas ça le problème 

Ecoute moi quand j'te dis, que j'ai pas envie

J'ai pas envie (non j'ai pas envie)

De faire comme ci, comme les maris qui disent oui

J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie de te faire plaisir

J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, si tu m'aimes viens me le dire

En chantant, Tu dis l'amour c'est pas ça mais tu vois

Je suis pas le con que tu crois, cette chanson elle est pour toi

 

T'as voulu la passion, t'as eu les Mon chérie

T'as voulu l'évasion, je t'ai acheté des Kiwi

T'as voulu voir la mer, et on a vu la mienne

Tu dis Rome, je dis Vienne

 

Parce que j'ai pas envie...

 

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
 

You gave me roses, I sent you over
You wanted to take a break, I said let's continue
You wanted the countryside, we live in Paris
You say no, I say yes
You wanted Gaisbourg, I gave you Booba
You wanted to make love, we did zumba
You wanted a boy, we called him Susie
You say no, I say yes

Saying “I love you” isn’t the problem.
Listen to me when I tell you,
that I don't want to

I don't want to
(no I don't want to)

 

Like husbands, who say yes
I don't want,
I don't want,
I don't want to please you

I don't want to,
I don't want to,
if you love me come tell me


While singing,
You say love is not that
but you see
I'm not the idiot you think,
this song is for you


You wanted Peru, you only got the hat
You wanted the Ferris wheel, you got the turnstile
You wanted a lover, I said that's what we'll see
You say white, I say black

Saying I love you, that's not the problem
Listen to me when I tell you, that I don't want to
I don't want to (no I don't want to)
To do it like this, like husbands who say yes
I don't want to, I don't want to please you
I don't want to,
I don't want to,
if you love me come tell me

While singing,
You say love is not that but you see

I'm not the idiot you think, this song is for you

You wanted passion, you got the My darling
You wanted to escape, I bought you Kiwi
You wanted to see the sea, and we saw mine
You say Rome, I say Vienna

 

Because I do not want to...

ALL SHE WANTS

 

We're talking about this song HERE

 

---------------------------------------------

 

It's an age-old conversation
That is changing with the times.
But it's oh, so complicated
If your mother is like mine
All that she wants are the stars and the moon
A son with a wife and a big living room

All she wants
Is another little special arrangement
A peculiar engagement
Got the trophy wife that’s respectable
To avoid any spectacle
It’s another simple solution
For my mother’s delusion
Get her some adorable pictures done
For her mother in Lebanon

All that she wants (All she wants)
All that she wants
All that she wants (All she wants)
All that she wants
All that she wants (All she wants)
All that she wants
Is another son

To be clear, I'm not a hater
and my wife, I like her too
Let's be honest with each other
There's some things we always knew
All that she wants is the sun and the moon
The call of the wild and a big silver spoon

All she wants
Is another little special arrangement
A financial engagement
Social standing is stable
But no kids on the table
Just a little harmless diversion
An acceptable version
But I know my heart is in peril
Made a deal with the devil

All that she wants (All she wants)
All she wants
All she wants
All she wants
All she wants is another son

Oh it seems I was mistaken
Heaven knows just what I’ve done
All these hateful conversations
Are not helping anyone
My dear wife I have to leave you
There is nothing you can say
You can keep the house without me
You'll be better off this way

All she wants
All she wants
All she wants
All she wants
All she wants is another son

OH GIRL YOU'RE THE DEVIL

 

(We're talking about the song HERE.)

 

She’s a girl with a bag full of hearts and a devil’s eyes

Crazy kids in the wild on the run to the county line

Shotgun for a tongue but says just what she likes

Oh girl you’re the devil

Oh girl you got the devil inside
 

And I said follow me

Whoever you want to be

Don’t care where you where you go

As long as you stay with me

And I said follow me

Whoever you want to be

Don’t care where you where you go

As long as you stay with me
 

Oh girl you’re the devil

She’s a bad bad girl

Oh girl you got the devil inside
 

Growing up as a son of a preacher in a Catholic school

Jumps out of the closet head-first no parachute

Bought a one-way ticket on a Greyhound out of town

Oh boy you’re the devil

Oh boy you’re the devil I found
 

And I said follow me

Whoever you want to be

Don’t care where you where you go

As long as you stay with me

And I said follow me

Whoever you want to be

Don’t care where you where you go

As long as you stay with me
 

Oh girl you’re the devil

She’s a bad bad girl

Oh girl you got the devil inside

A very bad girl

 

Oh boy you’re the devil

He’s a bad bad boy

Oh boy you’ve got the devil inside

A very bad boy

 

She’s a bad bad girl

A very bad girl

He’s a bad bad boy

A very bad boy

NO PLACE IN HEAVEN

 

(We're talking about the song HERE.)

 

 

Father will you forgive me for my sins

Father if there’s a heaven let me in

I don’t know where to go if I should die

We haven’t been on speaking terms for so long you and I
 

I was a freak since seven years old

And cast away I felt the cold

Coming over me

For every love I had to hide

And every tear I ever cried

I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please
 

There’s no place in heaven for someone like me

Won’t you open the door and try me once more

‘Cause there’s no place in heaven for someone like me

‘Cause there’s no place in heaven
 

In between us an ocean can be found

How long will I swim before I drown

And in between those words we dare not say

Do you think that you could learn to love me anyway

 

I was freak since seven years old

And cast away I felt the cold

Coming over me

For every love I had to hide

And every tear I ever cried

I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please

 

There’s no place in heaven for someone like me

Won’t you open the door and try me once more

‘Cause there’s no place in heaven for someone like me

Oh I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please

 

There’s no place in heaven for someone like me

‘Cause there’s no place in heaven

 

Father won’t you forgive me for my sins

Father if there’s a heaven let me in

Father is there any way to see

If there’s room in heaven left for me
 

I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please

 

There’s no place in heaven for someone like me

Won’t you open the door and try me once more

'Cause there’s no place in heaven for someone like me

Oh I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please

 

There’s no place in heaven for someone like me

There’s no place in heaven for me

STARING AT THE SUN

 

(We're talking about the song HERE.)

 
Watch the sun set, hold it from afar
Close as I get to being where you are
While there's light left I sing this song for you
Don't know if you care, but every day I do
 
Here I stand, staring at the sun
Distant land, staring at the sun
You're not there, but we share the same one
Miles apart, staring at the sun
Distant hearts, staring at the sun
One thing's true, just like you, there's only one
And I don't care if it burns my eyes
And I don't care, 'cause my love is blind
From staring at the sun 
Whoa, from staring at the sun 

From staring at the sun 
Whoa, from staring at the sun

 
Send my love down in those rays of light
Through your window on your tired eyes
Say good morning, say it to the sun
Like you're talking, talking to someone
 

Here I stand, staring at the sun
Distant land, staring at the sun
You're not there, but we share the same one
Miles apart, staring at the sun
Distant hearts, staring at the sun
One thing's true, just like you, there's only one
And I don't care if it burns my eyes
And I don't care, 'cause my love is blind
From staring at the sun 
Whoa, from staring at the sun 

From staring at the sun 
Whoa, from staring at the sun

HURTS

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

How do we end up like this

Under a burning sky

Some things are better unsaid

It’s easier to lie

 

I’m pulling but my heart is on the wire

Don’t need a thousand guards to lock me in

It doesn’t take a fool to start a fire

A solitary spark and wars begin

 

Say it’s only words

And that it will get easier with time

Nothing’s only words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

I can’t stop hearing words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

How did it all come to this

We started off as friends

It makes it easy to leave

If we’re strangers by the end

 

I’m pulling but my heart is on the wire

Don’t need a thousand guards to lock me in

It doesn’t take a fool to start a fire

A solitary spark and wars begin

 

Say it’s only words

And that it will get easier with time

Nothing’s only words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop hearing all the words I said

I can’t stop hearing all the words I said

I can’t stop hearing all the words I said

I can’t stop hearing words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

You say it’s only words

And that it will get easier with time

Nothing’s only words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

You say it’s only words

It doesn’t matter if they’re yours or mine

Nothing’s only words

That’s how hearts get hurt

 

I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

I can’t stop hearing all the words you said

Let’s stop using words

That’s how hearts get hurt

GOOD WIFE

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

Comes on over

Wants to drown his sorrows

Got a two-seater sofa
and some whiskey in a bottle
Broken and in tears
with the weight of the world on his shoulder

Oh my God, Sam
What’s happened to ya? Says his 
Wife’s just left with his two-year-old daughter
To live in Acapulco with some idiot
She only met a couple months ago.
 
I wish I could tell you that
If it was me, I would be a good wife,
I would never doubt you, 
Ours would be a good life
We could be better than so many
I would never stress you
About bringing home the plenty
 
For all these things
Another life I'll have to wait
Would have been perfect
If only God had wanted it
But you’ll never know it
and we’ll get old,
Let’s not talk about it
rest your head
upon my shoulder
 
You'll never know, you'll never know
you'll never know the good life,
You'll never know the good life,
You'll never know the good life
 
Somebody once told me that there are watchers
and there are doers in this world,
I guess I’m a watcher
not by choice
it’s just what I was hurled
We’re just two friends
It's not a risky situation
 
I wish I could tell you that
If it was me, I would be a good wife,
I would never doubt you, 
Ours would be a good life
We could be better than so many
I would never stress you
about bringing home the plenty
 
For all these things
another life I'll have to wait,
Would have been perfect,
if only God had wanted it,
But you’ll never know it
and we’ll get old,
Let’s not talk about it
rest your head upon my shoulder
 
You'll never know, you'll never know
you'll never know the good life,
You'll never know the good life,
You'll/we'll never know the good life
 
Rest your head upon my shoulder
I'm so tired, you can see
Now that life’s a little colder
I could love you simply
And even if you’ll never know
Wouldn't leave if it was me
My love would never run away
like the sunshine
Good time friend
not just the good time
 
For all these things
another life I'll have to wait,
Would have been perfect
if only God had wanted it,
But you’ll never know it
and we’ll get old,
Let’s not talk about it
rest your head
upon my shoulder
 
You'll never know, we'll never know
you'll never know the good life,
You'll never know the good life,
You'll never know the good life

RIO

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

Oh here I go again

I wake up every morning to this Groundhog Day
Thinking about the list of things that I’ve done wrong
Can’t even count, it goes on too long
 
I try to change my ways
I feel like I’m the villain in some crappy play
The book has long been written, but I’d rather be
Just about anyone else but me, I hope you see
 
It doesn’t mean I’m not a fighter
It's just that I wanna be a little lighter
Spent so long fixing things I’ve done
I’ve got holes in all my pockets
Even those holes, they’ve got pockets
Hiding things that’ll never see the sun
 
I’m taking off, going to Rio
I’m getting lost to find an alter-ego
It could be Paris or Berlin, I don’t care what state I’m in
Gonna leave it all behind
Maybe I’ll be myself when I’m somebody else
 
This is not an invitation, I’m going to Rio
This is not a conversation, say goodbye to me-oh
 
Maybe in ten years time
You’ll receive a letter from some random guy
You’ll like him so much better
But then you will see, he’s not a stranger it’s only me
 
I can only be myself as somebody else
 
'Cause you got sun, I got bad weather
Anything you can lose I can lose better
Do my best with what life gave to me
I’ve got holes in all my pockets
Even those holes, they’ve got pockets
Hiding things that I sure want to leave
 
I’m taking off, going to Rio
I’m getting lost to find an alter-ego
It could be Paris or Berlin, I don’t care what state I’m in
Gonna leave it all behind
Maybe I’ll be myself when I’m somebody else
 
This is not an invitation, I’m going to Rio
This is not a conversation, say goodbye to me-oh
 
Give me a peanut and I’ll turn blue
I can't even eat the things you do
Bake you a cake and I burn it up twice
I roll thirteen on a pair of dice 
 
Give me a peanut and I’ll turn blue
I can't even eat the things you do
Bake you a cake and I burn it up twice
I roll thirteen on a pair of dice 
 
I’m taking off, going to Rio
I’m getting lost to find an alter-ego
It could be Paris or Berlin, I don’t care what state I’m in
Gonna leave it all behind
Maybe I’ll be myself when I’m somebody else
 
This is not an invitation, I’m going to Rio
This is not a conversation, say goodbye to me-oh
This is not an invitation, I’m going to Rio
This is not a conversation, say goodbye to me-oh

ORDINARY MAN

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

Woke up this morning just like every man does
walked to the bathroom just like every man does
made my bed just like everyone must
nursed my head just like everyone must

Spent the day playing Nina Simone
reorganized every record I own
I see my friends, we drink beer in a can
half-drunk they smile it'll be all right man

Just like a king who's losing his worth,
I'm like a snob that's falling to earth.
Everyone thinks that I’m staying the same
are they secretly happy that I am in pain?
So you say it's ordinary love,
that's impossible to do
no such thing as ordinary love
I was ordinary just to you

Does it mean that I'm a regular man
not as special as I think that I am
as for you all that I want to know
did you stay up as I tumbled so low?

Just like a king who's losing his worth,
I'm like the sun that's fallen to Earth.
Everyone thinks that I'm staying the same
are they secretly happy that I am in pain?
so you say it's ordinary love,
that's impossible to do
no such thing as ordinary love
I was ordinary just to you.

So you say it's ordinary love,
that's impossible to do
no such thing as ordinary love
I was ordinary just to you

If I was ordinary
and love was ordinary
if I was ordinary
oh so very ordinary
if love was ordinary
and I was ordinary
are you too?

PROMISELAND

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

I was born in that summer when the sun didn't shine
I was given the name that doesn't feel like it's mine
Lived my life as the good boy I was told I should be
Prayed every night to a religion that was chosen for me

Sold my soul broke my bones
Tell me what did I get
Did my time, toed the line
Ain't seen anything yet

Strike me down to the ground
You know I've seen it before
Make it hurt I'll eat the dirt
I just don't care anymore

How could you break my heart
Already played my part
I kept my promise man
Show me the promiseland

Don't occupy my throne
Give me the crown I own
Lived like you told me how
Look at me now

I've got no money in my pocket
And the whole world's bringing me down
And the whole world's bringing me down

One person's lie is just another man's truth
We kept on running from the devil but the devil was you
Every time I see the light I'm falling deeper in debt
If I've never seen the good how can it come to an end

Sold my soul broke my bones
Tell me what did I get
Did my time, toed the line
Ain't seen anything yet

Strike me down to the ground
You know I've seen it before
Make it hurt I'll eat the dirt
I just don't care anymore

How could you break my heart
Already played my part
I kept my promise man
Show me the promiseland

Don't occupy my throne
Give me the crown I own
Lived like you told me how
Look at me now

I've got no money in my pocket
And the whole world's bringing me down
And the whole world's bringing me down
And the whole world's bringing me down

How could you break my heart
Already played my part
I kept my promise man
Show me the promiseland

Don't occupy my throne
Give me the crown I own
Lived like you told me how
Look at me now

PORCELAIN

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

It's hard to breathe
My knees are weak
It's a cold bath
And I can't feel my feet

Porcelain
It's the state that I'm in
Hold me carefully
Just one breath could shatter me

'Cause you and I
Were one of a kind
Unbreakable
How was I supposed to find
Out that I'd crumble

Porcelain
Porcelain

It's a small cry
That is screaming inside
It's a paper cut
That is bleeding me dry

Porcelain
It's the state that I'm in
Hold me carefully
Just one breath could shatter me

'Cause you and I
Were one of a kind
Unbreakable
How was I supposed to find
Out that I'd crumble

Porcelain
Porcelain

Porcelain
It's the state that I'm in
Hold me carefully
Just one breath could shatter me

CENTER OF GRAVITY (with Franco Battiato) (bonus track on No Place in Heaven Special Edition - Italian version)

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

Narcissistic chansonier fighting delusional poetry with electric demons and spiritual fumes

 

Smiling girls in Ginza style are bowing to the powdered queen and her clever dandy

 

Stars aligning, renaissance, everything is making sense, I was finding enlightenment, impeccable data,

And now I’m losing control

Looking for a perpetual center of gravity, that doesn’t let me think about people and all the world that spins around me

Nothing that matters more

 

Looking for a perpetual center of gravity, so I don’t have to think about people and all the world that spins around me

Over and over again

Mystical and majestic the air in Moscow cathedral a cold winter day, I’m fading away

Alienated coats and ties are walking the city with fake strength to fulfill their mission in living agreement, but they don’t know what is for

I’m still searching for a permanent center of gravity, within an overdose of information in a world that spins around me

Nothing that matters more

 

I’m still searching for a permanent center of gravity, within an overdose of information in a world that spins around me

Over and over again

You are a woman in love, baby I need your love, I want your love over and over again

FEELS LIKE LOVE (bonus track on No Place in Heaven Special Edition)

 

(We're talking about this song HERE.)

 

Is this how it is
After just one kiss
Did you really think
That I invented this

 

Was it you or me
All the mess we made
Did we crash too hard

That's the risk we take

Did I run to you
Did you run to me
If we wait too long
Then we'll never see

We could walk away
And just like others would
Or we live our life
Like we know we should

'cause it feels like

'cause it feels like love

Yes, it feels like love to me

It's like finding gold

Buried in the shore

Once it's yours to hold

All you want is more

 

Baby, look at us
Any fool could see

I was made for you
And you were made for me

OK, tell me no

We could play that game

Waste a lot of time

But still feel the same

 

We could walk away
And just like others would
Or we live our life
Like we know we should

'cause it feels like

Yes, it feels like love

'cause it feels like
Yes, it feels like love

'cause it feels like
Yes, it feels like love
'cause it feels like
Yes, it feels like love

 

And would you know if it's love

Would you know if it's love

Would you know if it's love at all

 

And would you know if it's love

Would you know if it's love

Would you know if it's love at all

 

'cause it feels like

Yes, it feels like love

'cause it feels like
Yes, it feels like love to me

 

'cause it feels like love to me

 

This is how it is
After just one kiss
Do you really think
That I'm inventing this

 

'Cause it feels like love to me
