Rock
Me Baby – B.B King
Rock me baby
Rock me all night long
Rock me baby
Rock me all night long
Rock me baby
Like my back ain't got no bone
Roll me baby
Like you roll a wagon wheel
I want you to roll me baby, like

Want you to roll me baby, you don't
know how it makes me feel
Rock me baby, honey, rock me slow
Yeah, rock me pretty baby, baby

Satisfied
Mind - David Houston
How many times have you heard someone
say
If I had money, I will do things
my way
But little they know, that it's
so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied
mind
Money can't buy back all your youth
when you're old
A friend when you're lonely, oh
peace to your soul
The wealthiest person is a pauper
at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied
mind
My life is over and my time has
run out
My friends and my loved ones
I will leave them no doubt
But one things for certain
When it comes my time
I'll leave this old world, oh yeah
oh yeah, with a satisfied mind
One things for certain, when it
comes my time, oh yeah,
I'll leave this old world, oh with
a satisfied mind
Mind mind mind mind, satisfied mind
Sefronia
– The King’s Chain - Tim Buckley
I couldn’t buy you with a hundred
cattle
But you hike in shells and feathers
Up the African beach
I am king here
Tied to this hut by the king’s chain
My power’s like a tree and a green
taboo to me
The chameleon lies in your dusty
fingers
And blue flies circle your head
like stars
Jump into me now , I must not see
the water
Let me suck my weakness from your
dark nipples
She
Is Free - Chanson
qui date de l'époque Gods & Monsters , groupe que Jeff
avait formé avec Gary Lucas. Merci
à Nao pour l'aide à la transcription !
Si quelqu'un a trouvé les derniers mots manquants, on est preneur
! :)
Cold wind blows this waiting blood
Throw it to my ashes
Eyes strip pray my sleeping skin
She is like the sun black rain
Race on and then never go away
She's just like the smock
Black car, with your creaking wheels
Take away these thoughts of mine
Oh flowers, yellow, blue and gold
Dances ___________________
I dream I hold you with my hips
I call her name until I slip
Sleeping dreams are only mock
I claw the bed and I claw my head
Black car, with your creaking wheels
Take away these thoughts of mine
The pictures, dreams are in love with her
There's no home for me to sleep inside
She is free, a shadow crossing the sky
Free from my hope and my misery
She's so beautiful, away from me
She once was mine, but she is free
Black car, with your creaking wheels
Take away these thoughts of mine
The dreams and pictures are in love with her
There's no home for me to sleep inside
She is free, a shadow crossing the sky
Free from my hope and my misery
She's so beautiful, away from me
She once was mine, but she is free
Once I dreamed I was a man
Staring from my jocking_______
Stony into her ___________
She went and passed me on the street
Instead of ________
I claw the bed and I claw my head
Oh black car , black car
She is free, a shadow crossing the sky
She once was mine but she is free
You can't own her
She is free
Once I dream
So
Real
Love, let me sleep tonight on you
couch
And remember the smell of the fabric
Of your simple city dress
Oh , that was so real
We walked around til the moon got
full like a plate
The wind blew an invocation and
I fell asleep at the gate
And I never stepped on the cracks
'cause I thought I’d hurt my mother
And I couldn't awake from the nightmare
that sucked me in and pulled me under
Pulled me under
Oh ,that was so real
I love you, but I’m afraid to love
you
I love you, but I’m afraid to love
you
Strange
Fruit – Billie Holiday - D’après
un poème de Lewis Allen.
Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at
the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern
breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar
trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted
mouth
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning
flesh
Here is fruit for the crows to
pluck
For the rain to gather, for the
wind to suck
For the sun to rot, for the trees
to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop
Sweet
Thing – Van Morrison
And I will stroll the merry way
And jump the hedges first
And I will drink the clear
Clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats
And they'll get high
On a bluer ocean
Against tomorrow's sky
And I will never grow so old again
And I will walk and talk
In gardens all wet with rain
Oh sweet thing , sweet thing
Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite
And I don't know why
We shall walk and talk
In gardens all misty and wet with
rain
My, my, my, my, my sweet thing
And I will raise my hand up
Into the night time sky
And count the stars
That's shining in your eye
And I'll be satisfied
In gardens all wet with rain
And I will never, ever, ever, ever
Grow so old again
Oh sweet thing, sweet thing
Sugar baby with your champagne eyes
And your saint-like smile...
That’s
All I Ask – Nina Simone
Nobody nobody nobody nobody knows
How deep my love for you really
goes
Don’t cry to blow out the sun for
me
I ‘m not hopin’ for what I know
can’t be
All I ask is for a smile or two
Nothing in this world could be too
good for you
I wouldn’t ask you to lift
up this great big world
Yes I know you’re not that kind
of girl
All I ask is for a kiss each day
I ‘ll give you love that can never
blow away
Yes I will
Nobody nobody nobody nobody knows
How deep my love for you really
goes
All I want you to know
I wouldn’t ask you to hold back
the light of dawn
That’s just a little too much to
ask of anyone
The
Boy With The Thorn In His Side - The Smiths
The boy with the thorn in his side
Behind the murders there lies
A murderous desire for love
How can they look into my eyes
And still they don’t believe me
How can they hear me saying those
words
And still they don’t believe me
And if they don’t believe me now
Will they ever believe me
?
And if they don’t believe me now
Will they ever believe me ?
The boy with the thorn in his side
Behind the hatred there lies
A plundering desire for love
How can they see the love in our
eyes
And still they don’t believe us
And after all this time
They don’t want to believe us
And if they don’t believe us now
Will they ever believe us
And when you want to live
How do you start ?
Where do you go ?
Who do you know ?
The
Man That Got Away – George Gershwin – Judy
Garland
The road is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The winds grows colder
And suddenly you’re older
And all because of the man that
got away
No more his eager call
The writing’s on the wall
The dreams you dreamed have all
gone astray
The man that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning
Don’t know what happened
It’s all a crazy game
No more that all time thrill
For you’re been through the mill
And never a new love will be the
same
Good riddance , goodbye
Every trick of his you’re onto
But fools will be fools
And where’s he gone to ?
The road gets rougher
It’s lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he may turn up
There’s just no let up the live
long night and day
Every since this world began
There is nothing sadder
Than a one-man woman looking for
The man that got away
The man that got away
The
Other Woman – Nina Simone
The other woman finds time to manicure
her nails
The other woman is perfect where
he rival fails
And she’s never seen with pin curls
in her fair
The other woman enchants her clothes
with french perfume
The other woman keeps fresh cut
flowers in each room
There are never toys that’s scattered
everywhere
And when her baby comes to call
He’ll find her waiting like a lonesome
queen
Cause when she’s by his side
It’s such a change from old routine
But the other woman will always
cry herself to sleep
The other woman will never have
his love to keep
And as the years go by the other
woman
Will spend her life alone
The
Sky Is A Landfill
Circle around the park
Joining hands in silence
Watch the evil black the sky
The storm has ripped the shelter
Of illusion from our brow
This power is no mystery to us now.
Leave your spirit genocide
The cancer you won’t remove
We cast our funeral rose inside
And bury the need to prove
Our mutilation is to gain from the
system
Ooh, turn your head away
From the screen, oh people
It will tell you nothing more
Don’t suck the milk of flaccid Bill
K.
Public’s empty promise
To the people that the public can
ignore
This way of life is so devised
To snuff out the mind that moves
Moving with grace the men despise
And women have learned to lose
Throw off your shame or be
a slave to the system
I see you take another drag
One more lost soul to raise your
flag
The sky is a landfill
I see you take another drag
Let’s see you take another drag
You like to dance to the rolling
Head of the adulteress
You sing in praise of suicide
We know you’re useless
Like cops at the scene of the crime
With your steroids and your feedbag
And your stable and your trainer
I got a mail bomb for you Mister
Strong Arm
Throw out the stones from all the
cemetery homes
For the violence of a nation gone
by
Or the politics of weakness
And the garbage dump of souls
That will now black the sky
Their yellow haze and crowds of
eyes
Will plug up the mind that moves
Moving with grace the men despise
And women have learned to lose
We’ll share our bodies
In disdain for the system
Oh, I see you take another drag
One nation bends to kiss the hag
The sky is a landfill
I see you take another drag
I see you take another drag
I have no fear of this machine !
The
Way Young Lovers Do – Van Morrison
We strolled through fields all
wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
I kissed you on the lips once more
We said goodbye at your front door
There in the night time
Oh that’s the right time
To feel the way young lovers do
Then we sat on our own star and
dreamed
Of the way that we were
And the way that we wanted to be
Then we sat on our own star and
dreamed
Of the way that I was for you
And the way that you were for me
And then we danced the night away
And turned into each other saying
I love you, baby I love you
On the way that young lovers do,
do, do, do, do
I held her with her looking down
And I kissed her with the snow falling
down
There in the street light
Oh there was the street light
And the way …
The
way young lovers do – Live from the Bataclan
We strolled through fields all
wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
Oh the way that young lovers do
I kissed you on the lips once more
We said goodbye at your front door
There in the nighttime
Love, that's the right time
Oh to feel the way that young lovers
do
Then we sat on our own star and
dreamed of the way that we were
And the way that we wanted to be
Then we sat on our own star and
dreamed of the way that I was for you
And that you were for me
And then we long to dance the night
away
And turned to each other saying
“I love you , baby I love you”
Oh the way that young lovers do
Oh the way
Oh the way that young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers
Now won't you love me the way young
lovers do
Oh won't you love me the way that
young lovers do
Oh the way
Won't you love me the way that
young lovers do
It's so close
I can't feel you
Take your time on my body
Aren't you weird of going crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
And we sat on our own star and
dreamed of the way that we were
And the way that we wanted to be
And we sat on our own star and dreamed
of the way that I was for you
And that you were for me
Oh baby, babe
Then we long to dance the night
away
And turned to each other saying
“I love you, baby, I love you”
Oh yes
Les 2 vers suivants viennent
d’ Ivo , une chanson des Cocteau Twins.
Peep hole , Peach blow, Pandora
, Pompadour
Pale leaf , Pink sweet , Persephone
I held her with her looking down
And I kissed her, with the snow
falling down
There in the street light
Oh, it was a sweet night
And the way that young lovers do
Oh, the way that young lovers do
Oh the way that young , oh
Oh the ways you do, yes it's you
, yes
Ce dernier couplet vient de
That’s All I Ask de Nina Simone.
Oh don't try to blow out the sun
from me, baby
Oh and I'm hopin' for what I know
can't be
All that I ask is for your kiss
each day
And I'll give you love that will
never go away
I'll give you love that will never
go away
Thief
Without The Take - C’est
une collaboration de Jeff et d’Inger Lorre qui apparaît sur
l‘album “Transcendantal Medication“ d’Inger Lorre.
Oh baby didn't you hear ?
I'm goin' solo dear
So low dear
I am the thief without the take
I'm swallowing the bitterest pill
totally ever so against my will
I am the thief without the take
I am the thief without the take
Every time I try to do my art
Always fallin' apart
Fallin' apart
I am the thief without the take
I am the thief without the take
I'm the desert without sun
Five minus one diamond without shine
I'm the poem that doesn't rhyme
I'm the king on the hill
Sick and ill
Nothin' I wouldn't trade to be the
serving knave
I'm the sun without heat
The drum without the beat
I'm the winter without snow
Flame without a glow
I am the thief without the take
I am the thief without the take
Everytime I try to do my art
Always fallin' apart
Fallin' apart
I am the thief without the take,
I am the thief without the take
I've stolen from myself too too
long
It's just the music makes me want
to go on
I am the thief without the take
Thousand
Fold
I have no desire to make contact
with all the thought of "no, no"
I shiver now, to think of how this
answer asked her, no
Long time gone
I run to my hide out
There ain't a star born that brightens
More than you, you always should
have known
I'll illuminate your question
Long time ago I'd died and gone
What has brought the question ?
Time has brought the question
Come and call the question
Oh, oh, oh
Here are the stars, same thing again
Over, over, over, over, over, over
Over, over, over, over, over, over
Three
Is A Magic Number - School House Rock
- Un dessin animé américain.
Three is a magic number, yes it
is, it's a magic number
Somewhere in the ancient, mystic
trinity, you get three as a magic number
The past and the present and the
future
Faith hope and charity
The heart and the brain and the
body
Give you three as a magic number
It takes three legs to make a tripod,
or to make a table stand
It takes three wheels to make a
vehicle called a tricycle
Every triangle has three corners
, every triangle has three sides
No more , no less ,you don't have
to guess
When it's three, you can see it's
a magic number
A man and a woman had a little
baby
Yes they did
They are three in the family
And that's a magic number
Three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen,
eighteen,
Twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven,
thirty !
Three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen,
eighteen,
Twenty-one twenty-four, twenty-seven,
thirty !
Three times ten is thirty. three
times nine is twenty-seven
Three times eight is twenty-four.
three times seven is twenty-one
Three times six is eighteen. three
times five is fifteen
Three times four is twelve, and
three times three is nine,
And three times two is six, and
three times one is three, of course !
Three times one : what is it ?
three !
That's a magic number
A man and a woman had a little
baby
Yes they did
They had three in the family
And that's a magic number
Ulalume
– Edgar Allan Poe
On retrouve Ulalume sur “Closed On Account
Of Rabies , poems and tales of Edgar Allan Poe’’, un disque
hommage au poète américain, sur lequel on retrouve de très
nombreux artistes comme Marianne Faithfull , Christopher Walken ou
Iggy Pop. . .
The skies were ashen and sober
,
The leaves they were crisped and
sere ,
The leaves they were withering and
sere ;
It was night in the lonesome October
Of my most immemorial year ;
It was hard by the dim lake of Auber
,
In the misty mid region of Weir
,
It was down by the dank tarn of
Auber ,
In the ghoul-haunted woodland of
Weir .
Here once, through an alley, Titanic
,
Of cypress, I roamed with my Soul
,
Of cypress, with Psyche, my soul
.
These were days when my heart was
volcanic
As the scoriac rivers that roll
,
As the lavas that restlessly roll
Their sulphurous currents down Yaaneck
In the ultimate climes of the pole
,
That groan as they roll down Mount
Yaaneck
In the realms of the boreal
pole .
Our talk had been serious and sober
,
But our thoughts they were palsied
and sere ,
Our memories were treacherous and
sere ,
For we knew not the month was October
,
And we marked not the night of the
year
(Ah, night of all nights of the
year !) ;
We noted not the dim lake of Auber
(Though once we had journeyed down
here) ,
Remembered not the dank tarn of
Auber ,
Nor the ghoul-haunted woodland of
Weir .
And now, as the night
was senescent
And star- dials hinted of morn ,
At the end of our path a liquescent
And nebulous lustre was born ,
Out of which a miraculous crescent
Arose with a duplicate horn
Astarte‘s bediamonded crescent
Distinct with its duplicate horn
And I said : “She is warmer than
Dian ;
She rolls through an ether of sighs
,
She reveals in a region of sighs
:
She has seen that the tears are
not dry on
These cheeks, where the worm never
dies ,
And has come past the stars of the
Lion ,
To point us the path to the skies
,
To the Lethean peace of the skies
;
Come up, in despite of the Lion
,
To shine on us with her bright eyes
,
Come up through the lair of the
Lion ,
With love in her luminous eyes."
But Psyche, uplifting her finger
,
Said: "Sadly this star I mistrust
,
Her pallor I strangely mistrust
;
Oh, hasten! oh, let us not linger
!
Oh, fly! let us fly! for we must.
"
In terror she spoke, letting sink
her
Wings until they trailed in the
dust ;
In agony sobbed, letting sink her
Plumes till they trailed in the
dust ,
Till they sorrowfully trailed in
the dust .
I replied: "This is nothing but
dreaming :
Let us on by this tremulous light
!
Let us bathe in this crystalline
light !
Its sibyllic splendor is beaming
With hope and in beauty to-night
!
Ah, we safely may trust to its
gleaming ,
And be sure it will lead us aright
;
We safely may trust to a gleaming
That cannot but guide us aright
,
Since it flickers up to heaven through
the night."
Thus I pacified Psyche and kissed
her ,
And tempted her out of her gloom
,
And conquered her scruples and gloom
;
And we passed to the end of the
vista ,
But were stopped by the door of
a tomb ,
By the door of a legended tomb ,
And I said:"What is written, sweet
sister ,
On the door of this legended tomb
? "
She replied: "Ulalume! Ulalume !
'Tis the vault of thy lost Ulalume
! "
Then my heart it grew ashen and
sober
As the leaves that were crisped
and sere ,
As the leaves that were withering
and sere ,
And I cried: "It was surely October
On this very night of last year
That I journeyed, I journeyed down
here ,
That I brought a dread burden down
here ,
Of this night of all nights in the
year ,
Ah, what demon has tempted me here
?
Well I know, now, this dim lake
of Auber,
This misty mid region of Weir ,
Well I know, now, this dank tarn
of Auber ,
This ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir."
Said we, then--the two, then--"Ah,
can it
Have been that the woodlandish ghouls
The pitiful, the merciful ghouls
To bar up our way and to ban it
From the secret that lies in these
wolds
From the thing that lies hidden
in these wolds
Had drawn up the spectre of a planet
From the limbo of lunary souls
This sinfully scintillant planet
From the Hell of the planetary souls
?
