Love The King Of Emotion - Songlyrics (Seite 2160)

Ein schräger Text von den schon in anderen Threads thematisierten Procol Harum - sie sind in einer Neuauflage gerade auf Deutschland-Tour und ich habe Karten für Samstag

Mabel (Brooker / Reid)

Don`t eat green meat it ain`t good for you
you know it killed your brother, killed your sister too
even fresh fried chicken on new-mown sand
can`t beat red beans eaten outa your hand

Oh Mabel, Mabel! You know I love you gal but I`m not able
Mabel, oh Mabel, please get off the kitchen table
Don`t slice no onions, don`t peel no grape
dream about banana slice nor sniff around short cake
and if on a winter`s day you find your sundial`s wrong
you`ll know the weather is what`s brought it on

Oh Mabel, Mabel! You know I love you gal but I`m not able
Mabel, oh Mabel, please get off the kitchen table
Put the peas in the pot, put the pot on the hot
In the cellar lies my wife, in my wife there`s a knife
so tote that hammer, lift that pick
and banish inhibition with a pogo stick

Oh Mabel, Mabel! You know I love you gal but I`m not able
Mabel, oh Mabel, please get off the kitchen table

Rickie Lee Jones - Chuck E`s in Love

How come he don`t come and p.i.p. with me
Down at the meter no more?
How come he turn off the t.v.
And he hang that sign on the door?
We call and we call "How come?" we say
What could make a boy behave this way?
He learn all of the lines
And every time he don`t stutter when he talk
And it`s true! It`s true! He sure has acquired
A cool and inspired sorta jazz when he walk
Where`s his jacket and his old blue jeans?
If this ain`t healthy is it some kinda clean?

I think Chuck E`s in love

I don`t believe what you`re saying to me
This is something I gotta see. Is he here?
I look in the poolhall. Is he here?
I look in the drugstore. Is he here?
No, he don`t come here no more

I`ll tell you what I saw him
He was sittin` us down at the Pantages
And whatever is that he got up his sleeve
I hope it isn`t contagious
What`s her name? Is that her there?
Christ, I think he`s even combed his hair!
Is that her? What`s her name?
Oh, it`s never going to be same.
But that`s not her
I know what`s wrong--
Chuck E`s in love with the little girl who`s singing this song
Chuck E`s in love with me

[Iguana]

wo mir eben der name des früheren Procul Harum gitarristen über den weg gelaufen ist, der auch später solo einige spannende(tendenziell härtere) sachen an den start gebracht hat - hier sein beitrag zu meinen "rock art - juwelen".

ROBIN TROWER

VICTIMS OF THE FURY

You were all the rays of sunlight
Shinin` gold to me
Every color of the rainbow
I was blessed by her decree
You were every moment`s magic
Joy beyond compare
You were all the rays of sunlight
I was lost without a care

Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark

So we lived our days in rapture
Like the world could never end
We weren`t thinking `bout the future
We had time enough to spend
We were blessed as though in heaven
We were messengers of joy
There were angels all around us
There was none who dared destroy

Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark

Then the world collapsed around us
And the tables overturned
We were lambs before the slaughter
We were driven out and burned
Yes the world collapsed around us
And the archers found their mark
We were victims of the fury
We were shadows in the dark

Yeah.....victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Oh.....victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark

Victims of the fury
Shadows in the dark
Victims of the fury
Arrows found their mark

Shirley Bassey:

Thought I`d ring you


And tell you I`m in town
Hope to see you

Yes, dinner would be fine
Do you remember

When you and I first met?
I know I do

Do You?

Alain Delon:
Oh non, je n`ai rien oublié

Oh no, I haven`t forgot
Rien oublié de cette étrange fille

Anything of this strange life
Qui est venue traverser ma vie et ma ville

That came to cross my life and my town
Rien oublié non plus de cette drôle de nuit

Anything either of this odd night
Dans nous sommes sortis, je crois

After which we became, I think
Amis?

Friends?


Shirley Bassey:
Lost and confused


Whatever could I do
Nothing to lose

Oh, don`t you see I trust in you?
Caught in the rain on such a sunny day
Caught in the rain on such a special day with you

Nice to see you
You`ve hardly changed, it`s true
A little older


But time `s been kind to you
Do you remember a very special night
You know I do

Do you?

Alain Delon:
Oh oui, tu as bien fais d`appeler


Oh yes, you did right to call
Moi, moi je suis bouleversé

I, I am confused
Ça m`a complètement surpris, tu sais

It completely moved me, you know
De te voir à Paris, no je n`ai pas oublié encore

To see you in Paris, no I haven`t forgot yet
Ni le bain de la fontaine, ni la robe collée sur ton corps

Either the bath in the fountain, or the dress clinging on your body
Ni les mots du poème, comment pourrai-je oublier?

Or the words of the poem, how could I forget?


Shirley Bassey:
Lost and confused


Whatever could I do
Nothing to lose

Oh, don`t you see I trust in you?
Caught in the rain on such a sunny day
Caught in the rain on such a special day with you

Lost and confused


Whatever could I do
Nothing to lose

Oh, don`t you see I trust in you?
Caught in the rain on such a sunny day
Caught in the rain on such a special day with you

Caputo ist dann sicher Künstlername

[Iguana]

zur abwechslung begebe ich mich mal wieder in die untiefen einer düsteren, gequälten seele... gerade in der herbstzeit mit den kurzen tagen und wenig licht hat das gothisch-dunkle eine eigene magie. neben Paradise Lost und Type`O`Negative fasziniert in dem bereich auch in seiner ganzen inneren zerrisenheit Keith Caputo mit seiner band Life Of Agony.


LIFE OF AGONY

TANGERINE

Funnel down straight through the clouds
Like an ever flowing stream
Like an ever flowing steam
Take a bite of the fruit of life
Cause the fruit of life is sweet
Cause the fruit of life is sweet

You`re my tangerine

Let the spirits speak through me
Ecstasy and energy
Let it come your wildest dreams
A full bloom`s glow melts the winter`s freeze
New day, stressless without disease
Would you be my tangerine ?

You`re my tangerine

I can`t stop searching for more and more...

Still hung over from the night before
Cosmic hunger, I`m your fruitful whore
Soul searching sun, let your spirit soar
Still hung over from the night before

You`re my tangerine...
