Sweet Jane - The Velvet Underground/Lou Reed

Sweet Jane

The Velvet Underground/Lou Reed



Lyrics:
Standing on the corner
Suitcase is in my hand
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest
Me honey, I'm in a rock 'n' roll band

Ridin' in a Stutz bear cat, Jim
Those were different times
The poets they studied rules of verse
And those ladies rolled their eyes

You know you sweet Jane
Oh now baby, sweet Jane
Oh yes sweet Jane

Now Jack, he is a banker
And Jane, baby she is a clerk
And both of them save their money honey
When they come home from work

Sittin' there by the fire
The radio does play the classical music there, kid
The march of the wooden soldiers
And you can, you can hear Jack say

You know he saying, "Sweet Jane
Ooh baby, sweet Jane
Ah yes sweet Jane"

Some people like to go out dancing
Whereas other people like us got to work
Gotta watch me now and there's even some evil mothers
They'll tell you life's just dirt

That the pretty women never really faint
That villains always blink their eyes
That children are the only ones who blush
And that life, life is just to die, but I want to tell you something

Anyone who has ever had a heart
Oh oh wouldn't turn around and break it half
Anyone who has ever played a part
They're not gonna turn around and hate it

You know they're singin', "Sweet Jane
Ah sweet Jane
Ooh sweet Jane"

Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet, sweet Jane

Letra:
Parado en la esquina
La maleta está en mi mano
Jack está en su corsé y Jane en su chaleco
Yo, cariño, yo estoy en una banda de Rock 'N' Roll
Paseando en un auto Stutz, Jim,


Aquellos fueron otros tiempos
Todos los poetas estudiaban las reglas del verso
Y las señoritas ponían los ojos en blanco

Tú lo sabes, dulce Jane
Oh ahora cariño, dulce Jane
Oh si, dulce Jane

Ahora Jack es un banquero
Y Jane, cariño, ella es una secretaria
Y ambos ahorraban su dinero, cariño
Cuando llegan a casa del trabajo

Sentados junto al fuego
En la radio suena música clásica, niño
La marcha de los soldados de madera
Y puedes, puedes escuchar a Jack decir:

Sabes que él dice: dulce Jane
Uh cariño, dulce Jane
Ah sí, dulce Jane

A algunas personas les gusta salir a bailar
Mientras que otra gente, como nosotros, tiene que trabajar
Tienes que verme ahora, incluso hay algunas madres malvadas
Ellas te dirán que la vida es sólo suciedad
que las mujeres bonitas nunca se desmayan de verdad
los villanos siempre parpadean
los niños son los únicos que se sonrojan
y esa vida, esa vida es sólo para morir, pero quiero decirte algo

Cualquiera que haya tenido un corazón
No le daría la vuelta y lo rompería por la mitad
Cualquiera que haya tenido un papel
No va a darse vuelta y odiarlo

Y ahora cantan: dulce Jane
Ah dulce Jane
Uh dulce Jane

Dulce Jane
Dulce Jane
Dulce Jane
Dulce Jane
Dulce Jane
Dulce Jane
Dulce, dulce, dulce Jane.

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...
