Ai, Margarida

Ai, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida,
Que farias tu com ela?
- Tirava os brincos do prego.
Casava c'um homem cego
E ia morar para a Estrela.

Mas, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida,
Que diria tua mãe?
- (Ela conhece-me a fundo.)
Que há muito parvo no mundo,
E que eras parvo também.

E, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida
No sentido de morrer?
- Eu iria ao teu enterro,
Mas achava que era um erro
Querer amar sem viver.

Mas, Margarida,
Se este dar-te a minha vida
Não fosse senão poesia?
- Então, filho, nada feito.
Fica tudo sem efeito.
Nesta casa não se fia.

In the flesh [excerto]

- I will always be there.
- No!
She holds her ears.
-You know that I love you!
Pretends she doesn't hear.
- We're in this together. We share the same skin.
Panic in his voice now.
- Free us from sin!

-Tell me that you love me!
This is the end...
- I know that you do.
Of her way.
Never ever again follow me down.

Ride with me?

The killer awoke before dawn.
He put his boots on.
He took a face from the ancient gallery and he walked on down the hall.
He went into the room where his sister lived and he...
He paid a visit to his brother and then he...
He walked on down the hall, yeah.
And he came to a door.
And he looked inside.

'Father?'
'Yes son?'
'I want to kill you'

He said 'what?'
'And mother? I want to...'

I want to fuck you!
For what you put me through.
So what you've got.
So fuck you!
It's coming back to you.
So what you've got.

The other night I was out riding in a friend's car and out there on the side of the road there was this snake.
This snake had eyes of fire and fangs from another world.
But he was selling something.
He was selling devotion.
He was selling dreams.
He was selling lifestyles.

And I said 'sure man, what you've got? I'm interested in anything that's gonna get me off'
And the snake just stood there and smiled, with the spit in his eye, and cried:

Fuck you!
For what you put me through.
So what you've got.
So fuck you!
It's coming back to you.
So what you've got.

He was selling dreams and he was selling lies.
I met the prisoner of my own device.
He was selling love, he was selling bliss.
He sold me anything, I could not resist!

Ride with me...

I had the freedom to live how I wanted.
To take what I wanted to take from anyone at any time.
Forever in heartache.
As the snake just stood there and smiled.
At my demise, I wasn't scared.

So fuck you!
For what you put me through.
So what you've got.
So fuck you!
For what you put me through.
So what you've got.

Animals

I, I'm driving black on black
Just got my license back
I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track
I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride
Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me tonight
I'm driving past your house while you were sneaking out
I got the car door opened up so you can jump in on the run
Your mom don't know that you were missing
She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Check out the trouble we're in

You're beside me on the seat
Got your hand between my knees
And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze
It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear
But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears
By now, no doubt that we were heading south
I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth
'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch
It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch
I'm screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Look at the trouble we're in

We were parked out by the tracks
We're sitting in the back
And we just started getting busy
When she whispered "what was that?"
The wind, I think 'cause no one else knows where we are
And that was when she started screamin'
"That's my dad outside the car!"
Oh please, the keys, they're not in the ignition
Must have wound up on the floor while
we were switching our positions
I guess they knew that she was missing
As I tried to tell her dad it was her mouth that I was kissing
Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in
We're just a couple of animals
Get in, just get in
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Check out the trouble we're in
Get in, just get in

You think you're a man

Turn around, stand up like a man and look me in the eye.
Turn around, take one final look at what you've left behind.
Then walk away from the greatest lover you have ever known.
Yes, walk away.
You're telling me that you can make it on your own by yourself all alone without my help.
Mister you just made a big mistake!

You think you're a man but you're only a boy.
You think you're a man, you are only a toy.
You think you're a man but you just couldn't see you weren't man enough to satisfy me.

Shut the door, take a look around and tell me what you find.
Shut the door, take a giant step for you and all mankind.
Then don't come back!
I always gave you so much more than you deserve.
No, don't come back!
'Cause no one makes a fool of me, you've got a nerve to walk away.
Mark the words I'm gonna say, mister you just made a big mistake!

You think you're a man but you're only a boy.
You think you're a man, you are only a toy.
You think you're a man but you just couldn't see you weren't man enough to satisfy me.

Shut the door, take a look around and tell me what you find.
Shut the door, take a giant step for you and all mankind.
Then don't come back!
I always gave you so much more than you deserve.
No, don't come back!
'Cause no one makes a fool of me, you've got a nerve to walk away.
Mark the words I'm gonna say, mister you just made a big mistake!

You think you're a man but you're only a boy.
You think you're a man, you are only a toy.
You think you're a man but you just couldn't see you weren't man enough to satisfy me.

Tu não tens

Se o tens de ouvir tens de o fazer. E o mundo diz: tu tens de mudar!
Só não lavou as tuas mãos, mas tens as mãos do mundo para lavar.
Afasta-te um pouco mais e dorme em paz que tu não tens de dar o teu sorriso assim.
Esgotando o teu juízo assim.

Tu não tens de mudar.
Quem te quer mudar não te quer conhecer.
Tu não tens de o fazer!

Eu não tenho nada meu pois tudo o que era bom foi na corrente de o ter.
Agora dei o meu dia para ser feliz .
Para ver que eu nunca vou ter o mundo na minha mão.
Não tenhas pena de mim agora que os dias já não são de ouro.
Mas antes sim, existiam problemas.
E agora todos nós somos actores de cinema e escondemo-nos bem nos olhos que o mundo tem.
Mas toda gente nos vê.
Só não nos ouve ninguém.
Tu não tens de ver.
Tu não tens sequer de amar!
Tu só vais achar que vês quando ao sabor da tua lei o amor fizer de ti seu rei, para sempre.

Para sempre...

Não tenho nada meu.
Eu não tenho nada meu!

As putas dançam slows.

Enquanto dança um slow ninguém a vê cantar.
Trava por dentro o tempo, antes de se ir deitar.

Despe-se de gente para ninguém entrar.
Não ama quem quer, mas quem a quer amar
Despe-se de gente para ninguém entrar.
Não ama quem quer, mas quem a quer amar.

Dispo-me de gente para ninguém entrar.
Não amo quem quero, mas quem me quer amar.
Dispo-me de gente para ninguém entrar.
Não amo quem quero, mas quem me quer amar.
