Subterranean Homesick Blues - Bob Dylan

Subterranean Homesick Blues

Bob Dylan


Lyrics:
Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D. A.
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try "No Doz"
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Letra:
Johnny está en el sótano
mezclando la medicina,
yo estoy en la acera
pensando en el gobierno,
el tío de la trinchera,
fuera la insignia, despedido,
dice que ha cogido un catarro,
quiere que le paguen por ello.
¡Cuidado Chaval,
has hecho algo!
Dios sabe cuando
pero estás haciéndolo de nuevo,
mejor esfúmate en la callejuela
buscando un nuevo amigo,
el hombre del gran redil
con la gorra de piel de mapache
quiere once dólares en billetes:
tú sólo tienes diez.

Maggie viene veloz,
la cara llena de negro hollín
habla de que el calor pone pruebas incriminatorias en la cama pero
el teléfono está intervenido, de todas modos Maggie dice lo que muchos dicen
deben romperse a primeros de mayo,
órdenes del D.A.
¡Cuidado, chaval,
no importa lo que hicieras!
Anda de puntillas,
no lo intentes, “No Doz”,
mejor aléjate de esos
que llevan una manguera de fuego,
mantén limpia la nariz,
guarda la ropa de calle,
no necesitas al hombre del tiempo
para saber por dónde sopla el viento.

Ponte enfermo, ponte bien,
inclínate en un tintero,
llama timbres, es duro decir
que algo se va a vender,
prueba fuerte, guárdate,
vuelve, escribe Braille,
enciérrate, salta fianzas,
si fracasas alístate en el ejército.
¡Cuidado chaval,
vas a conseguir que te den!
Solamente perdedores, tramposos,
usadores de sexta mano,
haraganean en los teatros,
chica cerca del torbellino
buscando un nuevo tonto,
no sigas a los líderes,
vigila los parquímetros.

Ah, consigue nacer, mantente caliente,
acorta pantalones, sueña, aprende a bailar,
vístete, bendícete,
intenta tener un triunfo,
gústale, gústale, compra regalos,
no robes, no plagies,
veinte años de instrucción
y te ponen en el turno.
¡Cuidado chaval,
lo mantienen todo escondido!
Mejor salta dentro de una alcantarilla,
enciéndete una vela,
no lleves sandalias,
intenta evitar los escándalos,
no seas un holgazán,
mejor masca chicle
la bomba no funciona  porque los
ladrones se llevaron las manillas.

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

Since You've Been Gone Rainbow Lyrics:   I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back ...

Still of The Night - Whitesnake

Still Of The Night Whitesnake Lyrics: In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me I gotta have more In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise Telling me what's in store My heart start aching My body start a shaking And I can't take no more Now I just wanna get close to you An' taste your love so sweet And I just wanna make love to you Feel your body heat In the still of the night In the still of the night Over here baby In the heat of the day , I hang my head down low And hide my face from the sun Through the light of the day Until the evening time I'm waiting for the night to come In the still of the night In the cool moonlight I feel heart is aching In the still of the night Tell me here baby! In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door ...

Invaders - Iron Maiden

Invaders Iron Maiden Lyrics: Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives Judgement day has come around so be prepared don't run stand your ground They're coming in from the sea they've come the enemy beneath the blazing sun the battle has to be won Invaders ... Pillaging Invaders ... Looting Set ablaze the campfires alert the other men from inland Warning must be given there's not enough men here for a stand The Vikings are too many too powerful to take on our own We must have reinforcements we cannot fight this battle alone They're coming over the hill they've come to attack they're coming in for the kill there's no turning back Invaders ... Fighting Invaders ... Marauding Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground Severed li...
