Warning

Bat your eyes girl, be otherworldly.
Count your blessings. Seduce a stranger.
What’s so wrong with being happy?
Kudos to those who see through sickness. (yeah)
Over and over and over and over and ooh…

She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a Warning:
“Don’t ever let life pass you by!”

I suggest we learn to love
ourselves before it’s made illegal.
When will we learn? (When will we learn?)
When will we change? (When will we change?)
Just in time to see it all come down.
Those left standing will make millions
writing books on the way it should have been.

When she woke in the morning,
she knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a Warning (Warning):
“Don’t ever let life pass you by!”

Floating in this cosmic jacuzzi,

we are like frogs oblivious
to the water starting to boil.
No one flinches. We all float face down.

She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a Warning,
“Don’t ever let life pass you by…
pass you by…”

Couleur café

J’aime ta couleur café
Tes cheveux café
Ta gorge café
J’aime quand pour moi tu danses
Alors j’entends murmurer
Tous tes bracelets
Jolis bracelets
À tes pieds ils se balancent

Couleur
Café
Que j’aime ta couleur
Café

C’est quand même fou l’effet
L’effet que ça fait
De te voir rouler
Ainsi des yeux et des hanches
Si tu fais comme le café
Rien qu’à m’énerver
Rien qu’à m’exciter
Ce soir la nuit sera blanche

Couleur
Café
Que j’aime ta couleur
Café

L’amour sans philosopher
C’est comm’ le café
Très vite passé
Mais que veux-tu que j’y fasse
On en a marr’ de café
Et c’est terminé
Pour tout oublier
On attend que ça se tasse

Couleur
Café
Que j’aime ta couleur
Café

(Serge Gainsbourg)

CΛPITΛL CITY, originally uploaded by CRYSTΛL [here & there].

Nerve and nerve
This coastline swerves
To a city that they live on
I walk on by
Animals cry
To a city that they live on
To a city that they walk on
To a city that they live on

Pulse Feel Pulse

This train is late
I hesitate
To a city that they live on
Dance the dance of violence
To a city that they live on
To a city that they crawl on
To a city that they live on

Pulse Feel Pulse

City that they live on
Feel
To a city that they crawl on
To a city live on
Feel
City that they crawl on

I’m traveling in some vehicle
I’m sitting in some cafe
A defector from the petty wars
That shell shock love away
There’s comfort in melancholy
When there’s no need to explain
It’s just as natural as the weather
In this moody sky today
In our possessive coupling
So much could not be expressed
So now i’m returning to myself
These things that you and i suppressed
I see something of myself in everyone
Just at this moment of the world
As snow gathers like bolts of lace
Waltzing on a ballroom girl

You know it never has been easy
Whether you do or you do not resign
Whether you travel the breadth of extremities
Or stick to some straighter line
Now here’s a man and a woman sitting on a rock
They’re either going to thaw out or freeze
Listen…
Strains of benny goodman
Coming thru’ the snow and the pinewood trees
I’m porous with travel fever
But you know i’m so glad to be on my own
Still somehow the slightest touch of a stranger
Can set up trembling in my bones
I know – no one’s going to show me everything
We all come and go unknown
Each so deep and superficial
Between the forceps and the stone

Well i looked at the granite markers
Those tribute to finality – to eternity
And then i looked at myself here
Chicken scratching for my immortality
In the church they light the candles
And the wax rolls down like tears
There’s the hope and the hopelessness
I’ve witnessed thirty years
We’re only particles of change i know, i know
Orbiting around the sun
But how can i have that point of view
When i’m always bound and tied to someone
White flags of winter chimneys
Waving truce against the moon
In the mirrors of a modern bank
from the window of a hotel room

I’m traveling in some vehicle
I’m sitting in some cafe
A defector from the petty wars
Until love sucks me back that way
