"DO YOU REALIZE?"

SHARON VAN ETTEN

(original de The Flaming Lips)

 Do you realize?
That you have the most beautiful face
Do you realize?
We're floating in space
Do you realize?
That happiness makes you cry
Do you realize?
That everyone you know some day will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
Realize the sun don't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning 'round

Do you realize?
Do you realize?
That everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
Realize the sun don't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning 'round

Do you realize?
That you have the most beautiful face
Do you realize?

 "PARADE"

VIC CHESNUTT

 Where did you go after the parade
I wandered, searching for about an hour
Then I parked it on a bench
Shifting and sulking
Those pesky little mosquitoes
They nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly drained me

Then a man dripping with vitalis
Said I looked like Joe Namath
He asked me did I used to be famous
And I said "neighbor, I'm famously late"
And I said "neighbor, I'm famously late"

Where did you go after the parade
You never even appeared to enjoy it
I came out of it with a slight experience
Drinking and howling at the natives

You're a great at disappearing
You left me with an ear ache
I spit into the swan lake saying
"what a hideous review"
Saying, "what a hideous review"

Weather, barometric pressure
Push me to the ground
My stomach is growling
I always heard this was such a festive town
But everybody over ten years old is frowning
Everybody over ten years old is frowning

Where did you go after the parade
I didn't expecting you to be bolting away
Remember the time you took me
To see Harold and Maude
'cause I didn't know the meaning
Of the word catharsis

We are busy weaklings
Poking around for reasons
We are happy little heathens
It's just time we both admit it
It's time we both admit it

"BRIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD"

VAN MORRISON

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCDZzf4ragg

 From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again on the
Bright side of the road

Little darlin', come with me
Won't you help me share my load
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road

Into this life we're born
Baby sometimes we don't know why
And time seems to go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye

Let's enjoy it while we can
Won't you help me sing my song
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road

From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again on the bright side of the road
 

"A SAD HARD CHANGE"
JASON MOLINA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlSwP6goCgs

 
Had I known what I know now
I'd have let you out
With no sound
I would weep the whole world around
It's already enough on these shaking legs
It's already enough with these dimming eyes passin'

I'm not the same, you can't follow
I'm not the same, you can't follow
I see the sun no more
And I see the sun no more
Been a sad hard change
It's been a sad hard change
Had I known
Had I known

 

 "ALONE WITH THE OWL"
JASON MOLINA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ncz3pr_Iyak

 Alone with the owls howling "pain, pain, pain"
Alone with the owls howling "pain"
Alone with the owls howling "pain, pain, pain"
You don’t have to live this way

While I lived was I a stray black dog
While I lived was I a stray black dog
While I lived was I anything at all

Did I have to live this way
I stood beside the ocean not a single wave

Beside the ocean not a single wave
Beside the ocean not a single wave
Not a single thing left to say

With the owl howling “pain, pain, pain”
With the ocean howling the same
With my life howling the same
Did I have to live this way

"EVERYTHING SHOULD TRY AGAIN"

JASON MOLINA 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E65pWVah2z8

 You don't forgive the silence for not speaking up
No matter how hard we're trying, it's not hard enough
You rise before the lightning to meet it by yourself
You've been tired and a little sick
You've been trying to work with it
You drew your grave on every single map
You don't plan on staying long
You plan on burning it
No matter how wrong it went
You don't have much more room to forget
You don't have much more room to forget
You don't forgive even the lightning
For leaving you
But everything should try again
Even you
You followed the train through every prairie dawn
Said, "I'd like to see Ohio one more time before it's gone"
You had your hands up high in a prayer to crush your heart
And every single heart
Was that eight point star
Ever been tired?
Ever been a little sick?
Ever tried working through it?
