LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: LOVE'S NOT A COMPETITION (BUT I'M WINNING)

I won’t be the one to disappoint you anymore
I know, I’ve said all this and that you’ve heard it all before
The trick is getting you to think that all this was your idea
And that this was everything you’ve ever wanted out of here

Love's not a competition but I’m winning

I’m not sure what’s truly altruistic anymore
When every good thing that I do is listed and you’re keeping score

Love's not a competition but I’m winning
Love's not a competition but I’m winning

At least I thought I was but there’s no way of knowing
At least I thought I was but there’s no way of knowing
You know what it’s like when you’re new to the game but I’m not

I won’t be the one to disappoint you
I won’t be the one to disappoint you anymore

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: I FOUGHT THE ANGELS/THE DELGADOS

I fought the angels here today
Hope my defeat will end this play
Everybody knows that
I only have myself to blame
Everybody knows that
Softly, softly wins the game

Trust I'll try to learn again
My words are seldom for a friend

Knew at the time that they came out
Wish I could have them disallowed
Everybody knows that
We say things we do not mean
Everybody knows that
We say things that are unclean

Trust I'll try to learn again
My words are seldom for a friend

Run conversations in my head
Write my own scripts to dish the dread
And if I speak out loud
I will have to change the rules
For speaking's out of bounds
If it's practised by a fool

Trust I'll try to learn again
My words are seldom for a friend
So lend me an ear to lean upon
To speak to and learn my speaking from

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WORLD IN MY EYES/DEPECHE MODE

Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move
You just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes

I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won't need a map, believe me
Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is

Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips
All the islands in the ocean
All the heavens in the motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is

Let me show you the world in my eyes

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RABBIT IN YOUR HEADLIGHTS/UNKLE

Diretto da JONATHAN GLAZER

I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Scared of the spotlight
You don't come to visit
I'm stuck in this bed
Thin rubber gloves
She laughs when she's crying
She cries when she's laughing
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away

I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
Washed down the toliet
Money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away

Rotworms on the underground
Caught between stations
Butterfingers
I'm losing my patience
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
You got money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away
Away, away

ALBUM: PSYENCE FICTION (1998)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHERE THE BIRDS ALWAYS SING/THE CURE

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
The others die
And you always want a reason why
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to see that there's some sense in it
No the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
No the world is neither fair nor unfair
One survives
And others die
And you always want a reason why
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to see that there's some sense in it
No the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
And it never is
You always want so much more than this
An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world
Where the birds always sing
Another world
Where the sun always shines
Another world
Where nothing ever dies

ALBUM: BLOODFLOWERS (2000)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CLOUDBURST/OASIS

Wake up, there's a new day dawning
I think I'll take a little walk for a while
I need shades 'cause the sun is blinding
And I can see for miles and miles
I can feel the earth beneath me
I lie down we are as one
And they look but they cannot find me
I'm off and heading for the sun

I’m getting colder
I feel a chill in the air
There's a change in the weather
Here it comes again
Now I can feel the rain
The wind that brings on the change
Is taking me over
The wind that brings on the rain
Is making me older

Downtown the moon is shining
I'm gonna dress it up in style
My business everybody's minding
I need to get away for a while

I’m getting colder
I feel a chill in the air
There's a change in the weather
Here it comes again
Now I can feel the rain
The wind that brings on the change
Is taking me over
The wind that brings on the rain
Is making me older

ALBUM: LIVE FOREVER (EP) (1994)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TEXARKANA/R.E.M.

20,000 miles to an oasis
20,000 years will I burn
20,000 chances I wasted
Waiting for the moment to turn

I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

Walking through the woods I have faced it
Looking for something to learn
30,000 thoughts have been wasted
Never in my time to return

I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

All my life
Waiting to fall

40,000 stars in the evening
Look at them fall from the sky
40,000 reasons for living
40,000 tears in your eyes

I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

ALBUM: OUT OF TIME (1991)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HARROWDOWN HILL/THOM YORKE

Don't walk the plank like I did
You will be dispensed with
When you've become inconvenient
Up on Harrowdown Hill
Where you used to go to school
Thats where I am
Thats where I'm lying down
Did I fall or was I pushed?
Did I fall or was I pushed?
And where's the blood?
And where's the blood?

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
To make it all right
So dry your eyes
We think the same things at the same time
We just can't do anything about it
We think the same things at the same time
We just can't do anything about it
So don't ask me
Ask the ministry
Don't ask me
Ask the ministry
We think the same things at the same time
There are so many of us
So you can't count
We think the same things at the same time
There are too many of us
So you can't count

Can you see me when I'm running?
Can you see me when I'm running?
Away from them
Away from them
I can't take their pressure
No one cares if you live or die
They just want me gone
They want me gone

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
To make it all right
So dry your eyes
We think the same things at the same time
We just can't do anything about it
We think the same things at the same time
There are too many of us
So you can't
There are too many of us
So you can't count

I was lured into the back of Harrowdown Hill
It was me lured into the back of Harrowdown Hill
It was a slippery slippery slippery slope
It was a slippery slippery slippery slope
I feel me slipping in and out of consciousness
I feel me slipping in and out of consciousness
I feel me

ALBUM: THE ERASER (2006)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: STEREOTYPES/BLUR

The suburbs they are dreaming
They're a twinkle in her eye
She's been feeling frisky since her husband said goodbye
She wears a low cut t-shirt
Runs a little B&B
She's most accomodating when she's in her lingerie
Wife-swapping is your future
You know that it would suit you

Yes they're stereotypes
There must be more to life
All your life you're dreaming
And then you stop dreaming
From time to time you know you should be
Going on another bender

The suburbs they are sleeping
But he's dressing up tonight
She likes a man in uniform
He likes to wear it tight
They're on the lovers' sofa
They're on the patio
And when the fun is over
Watch themselves on video
The neighbours may be staring
But they are just past caring

Yes they're stereotypes
There must be more to life
All your life you're dreaming
And then you
Stop dreaming
Time to time you know
You're going on another bender
Yes there must be more to life
Than stereotypes

Wife-swapping is your future
You know that it would suit you

Yes they're stereotypes
There must be more to life
All your life you're dreaming
And then you stop dreaming
From time to time you know you should be
Going on another bender
Yes there must be more to life
Than stereotypes
All your life you're dreaming
And then you stop dreaming
From time to time you know
You should go on another bender
Before you come to an end

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ELEFANTE/VERDENA

Blu, l’impero è blu
È questo che mi manca e mi provoca
Più, direi di più
Della tua pelle in fumo che mi soffoca
Precipita la verità
È solo un po’ più debole

Giù, mi pare giù
È come scura e gonfia la mia satira
l’impero è blu
Questa è la cura in rima
Ci soddisferà
Precipita la verità
È solo un po’ più debole

Precipita la verità
È solo un po’ più debole

Boom, mi sparo boom
Se la mia pelle è in fumo la tua soffoca
La tua soffoca
La tua soffoca
La tua soffoca
La tua soffoca
La tua soffoca

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE PERFECT DRUG/NINE INCH NAILS

I've got my head, but my head is unraveling
Can't keep control, can't keep track of where it's traveling
I've got my heart but my heart is no good
And you're the only one that's understood
I come along but I don't know where you're taking me
I shouldn't go but you're wrenching, dragging, shaking me
Turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky
The more I give to you, the more I die

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

You make me hard, when I'm all soft inside
I see the truth, when I'm all stupid eyed
The arrow goes straight through my heart
Without you everything just falls apart
My blood wants to say hello to you
My fears want to get inside of you
My soul is so afraid to realize
How very little there is left of me

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

Take me with you
Take me with you
Take me with you
Take me with you
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

ALBUM: LOST HIGHWAY (Soundtrack) 1997

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GOOD DAY/THE DRESDEN DOLLS

So you don't want to hear about my good song
You don't want to hear about how I am getting on
With all the shit that I can get done
The sun is in the sky and I am by my lonesome
So you don't want to hear about my good day
You have better things to do than to hear me say

God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I took out the trash today
And I'm on fire

So you don't want to hear about my good friends
You don't have the balls to take the truth or consequence
Success is in the eye of the beholder
And it's looking even better over your cold shoulder

I'm not suggesting
You get and line me up for questioning
But Jesus think
About the bridges you are burning and I'm betting
That even though you knew it from the start
You'd rather be a bitch than be an ordinary broken heart

So go ahead and talk about your bad day
I want all the details of the pain and misery
That you are inflicting on the others
I consider them my sisters and I want their numbers

God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I took up croquet today
And I'm on fire

I picked up the pieces of my broken ego
I have finally made my peace as far as you and me go
But I'd love to have you up to see the place
I'd like to do more than survive
I'd like to rub it in your face

Hey, it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I had so much fun today
And I'm on fire
God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
Ever since you went away
And I'm on fire

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on
So you don't want to hear about my good day

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEAVY IN YOUR ARMS/FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE

I was a heavy heart to carry
My beloved was weighed down
My arms around his neck
My fingers laced a crown
I was a heavy heart to carry
My feet dragged across the ground
And he took me to the river
Where he slowly let me drown

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms

And is it worth the wait
All this killing time
Are you strong enough to stand
Protecting both your heart and mine
Who is the betrayer
Who's the killer in the crowd
The one who creeps in corridors
And doesn't make a sound

My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall
My love has concrete feet
My love's an iron ball
Wrapped around your ankles
Over the waterfall

I'm so heavy, heavy, heavy in your arms
I'm so heavy, heavy, so heavy in your arms

This will be my last confession
I love you never felt like any blessing
Whisper it like it's a secret
Uttered to condemn the one who hears it
With a heavy heart

Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms
Heavy, heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms

Heavy, I'm so heavy in your arms

Someone send a runner
Through the weather that I'm under

Summer sent a runner

You must be somewhere in London
You must be loving your life in the rain
You must be somewhere in London
Walking merrily
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make corrections

Famous angels never come through England
England gets the ones you never need
I'm in a Los Angeles cathedral
Minor singing airheads sing for me

You put an ocean and a river between everybody else
Between everything, yourself and home
Put an ocean and a river
Between everything, yourself and home

You must be somewhere in London
You must be loving your life in the rain
You must be somewhere in London
Walking merrily
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make
I don't even think to make corrections

Famous angels never come through England
England gets the ones you never need
I'm in a Los Angeles cathedral
Minor singing airheads sing for me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SPIDERS AND FLIES/MERCURY REV

Plans and schemes
Thoughts and dreams
Who cares what they mean
When they work they're amazing things
When they don't I hear you scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
Eyes

Pharaohs and kings
Favorite queens
Buried with their precious rings
When they lived they loved complete
But in their tombs I hear them scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Six legs to stand on and two wings to fly
I can't remember and I can't decide
What was the season and the color of your eyes
Eyes

Psalms and spells
Magic blast
Who cares what they cast
I dreamed I'd always love you complete
I never thought I'd hear you scream
Spiders and flies
Live and die
Eight legs to stand on and two wings to fly
It makes you wonder, why can't I
What was the reason for the color of your eyes
Eyes

Spiders and flies
Live and die
Eight legs to stand on and two wings to fly
It makes you wonder, why can't I

She can start
To walk out
If she wants

Because we're young
Because we're gone
We'll take the tide's electric mind

We're so young and so gone
Let's chase the dragon

Because we're young
Bcause we're gone
We'll scare the skies with tigers eyes

We're so young and so gone
Let's chase the dragon
Let's chase the dragon
Let's chase the dragon

From our home high in the city
Where the skyline stained the snow
I fell for a servant
Who kept me on the boil

We're so young and so gone
Let's chase the dragon
From our home
From our home
From our home

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THIS IS HARDCORE/PULP

You are hardcore, you make me hard
You name the drama and I'll play the part
It seems I saw you in some teenage wet dream
I like your get-up if you know what I mean
I want it bad
I want it now
Can't you see I'm ready now
I've seen all the pictures, I've studied them forever
I wanna make a movie so let's star in it together
Don't make a move 'til I say action
Here comes the Hardcore life

Put your money where your mouth is tonight
Leave your make-up on and I'll leave on the light
Come over here babe and talk in the mic
I hear you now
It's gonna be one hell of the night
You can't be a spectator, oh no
You got to take these dreams and make them whole

This is Hardcore
There is no way back for you
This is Hardcore
This is me on top of you
And I can't believe it took me this long
That it took me this long

This is the eye of the storm
It's what men in stained raincoats pay for
But in here it is pure
This is the end of the line
I've seen the storyline
Played out so many times before
That goes in there
Then that goes in there
Then that goes in there
Then that goes in there
And then it's over
What a hell of a show
But what I want to know
What exactly do you do for an encore?
'Cause this is Hardcore

ALBUM: THIS IS HARDCORE (1998)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: POPULAR/NADA SURF

Three important rules for breaking up
Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don't make a big production
Don't make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you've gone together for only a short time
And haven't been too serious
There's still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she prefers the company of others
To your exclusive company
But if you're honest and direct
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you break the news
The boy will respect you for your frankness
And honestly he'll appreciate the kind of straight forward manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby you'll remain friends

I'm head of the class
I'm popular
I'm a quarterback
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you liked his article in the newspaper

I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I make football bets
I'm a teachers pet

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Johnny football hero in the hall
I propose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think It will keep people more able to deal with weird situations
And get to know more people
I think if you're ready to go out with Johnny
Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit
He won't mind he'll appreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you've dated someone else you can date him again
I'm sure he'll like it
Everyone will appreciate it
You're so novel what a good idea
You can keep your time to yourself
You don't need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy in the whole world could be yours
If you'll just listen to my plan
The teenage guide to popularity

I'm head of the class

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SPECTACULAR GIRL/EELS

She's got a life living in her heart
She's got these eyes, well where do I start?
Like looking at the deep night sky
So many worlds inside her eyes
She's a spectacular girl

Part of the job of being her man
Is knowing when to let go of her hand
Her kind of power it can't be reigned in
To hold her back would be a sin
She's a spectacular girl

She sees the beauty in things we all miss
All good things are defined by her kiss
If you're feeling like you can't believe
Well then, how do you explain the miracle I see?
She's a spectacular girl
Spectacular girl

Not a desire and not a need
Some things just happen 'cause they have to be
I'm gonna get there, I'm telling you sir
I'm a man on a mission and I'm all about her
She's a spectacular girl
Spectacular girl

My love

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BUTTERCUPS/FRAN HEALY

It never rains but it pours
Do keep the wolf from the door
I see him sitting in silence
Outside my house
Quiet as a mouse

I tried to buy you roses but all the stars were closed
And if I had a diamond ring I’d wear it through my nose
But I can’t dance and I can’t sing
A loser I suppose
So all I have is buttercups
All I have is buttercups
What is wrong with buttercups
Who knows

You said to have and to hold
Do let me in from the cold
I see you sitting in silence
Inside your house
Quiet as a mouse

I tried to buy you roses but all the stars were closed
And if I had a diamond ring I’d wear it through my nose
But I can’t dance and I can’t sing
A loser I suppose
So all I have is buttercups
All I have is buttercups
What is wrong with buttercups
Who knows
Who knows

And this could be life as we know it
How can I see if you never show it
I tried to buy you roses
But all the stars were closed

I tried to buy you roses but all the stars were closed
And if I had a diamond ring I’d wear it through my nose
But I can’t dance and I can’t sing
A loser I suppose
So all I have is buttercups
All I have is buttercups
What is wrong with buttercups
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows

Isn't quite what you take me for

I'll act in a certain way
I control what I can
That's the man I am
Well it pains me to say
And I do what I can
That's the man I am

Always, always, always
Always release me lover
I want to give you the face to face
Always
I want to miss some more

I'll relax in a certain way
I control what I can
That's the man I am
Well it pains me to say
And I do what I can
That's the man I am
(Coming out of the waste)
That's the man I am
(Clearing out of the shade)

All that you've known
Be as it may
All that you've shown
Reach in and try all day
(Coming out of the waste)
I wanna try all day
(Clearing out of the shade)

All that I know
Is you'll be ok
Follow your soul and it tells you to fly away
(Coming out of the waste)
I wanna fly all day
(Clearing out of the shade)

All that you've known
Be as it may
All that you've shone
Reach in and shine all day
(Coming out of the waste)
I wanna shine all day
(Clearing out of the shade)

ALBUM: INTERPOL (2010)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE UNDOING/INTERPOL

I was on my way
I was on my way to tell you it's no good
I was on my way
Chasing my damage
I was chased, thrilled and altered
Chasing my damage
Because I was chased, thrilled and altered
And it raised me

Suele tener
Me suelto
Me suelto en el deshacer
Al puro perder el ganar no compara

I always thought you had great style
And style was worthwhile
Because I was
I was on my way
Sobreviviré
Chasing my damage
I was chased, thrilled and altered
And it raised me
Chasing my damage
Because I was chased, thrilled and altered
And it raised me

Suele tener
Me suelto
Me suelto en el deshacer
Al puro perder el ganar no compara

Please, please the place we're in now
Please

ALBUM: INTERPOL (2010)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BIG EMPTY/STONE TEMPLE PILOTS

Driving faster in my car
Falling farther from just what we are
Smoke a cigarette and lie some more
These conversations kill
Falling faster in my car

Time to take her home, her dizzy head is conscience laden
Time to take a ride that leaves today no conversation
Time to take her home her lazy head is conscience laden
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long

Too much walking shoes worn thin
Too much tripping and my soul's worn thin
Time to catch a ride it leaves today
Her name is what it means
To much walking shoe's worn thin

Time to take her home, her dizzy head is conscience laden
Time to take a ride that leaves today no conversation
Time to take her home her lazy head is conscience laden
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long

Conversations kill
Conversations kill
Conversations kill

Time to take her home, her dizzy head is conscience laden
Time to take a ride that leaves today no conversation
Time to take her home her lazy head is conscience laden
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long
Time to wait too long

Conversations kill
Conversations kill
Conversations kill

ALBUM: PURPLE (1994)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HOPE/R.E.M.

You want to go out friday
And you want to go forever
You know that it sounds childish
That you dreamt of alligators
You hope that we are with you
And you hope you're recognized
You want to go forever
You see it in my eyes
I'm lost in the confusion
And it doesn't seem to matter
You really can't believe it
And you hope it's getting better

You want to trust the doctors
Their procedure is the best
But the last try was a failure
And the intern was a mess
And they did the same to Matthew
And he bled 'til sunday night
They're saying don't be frightened
But you're weakened by the sight of it
You lock into a pattern
And you know that it's the last ditch
You're trying to see through it
And it doesn't make sense
But they're saying don't be frightened
And they're killing alligators
And they're hog-tied
And accepting of the struggle

You want to trust religion
And you know it's allegory
But the people who are followers
Have written their own story
So you look up to the heavens
And you hope that it's a spaceship
And it's something from your childhood
You're thinking don't be frightened

You want to climb the ladder
You want to see forever
You want to go out friday
And you want to go forever
And you want to cross your DNA
To cross your DNA with something reptile

And you're questioning the sciences
And questioning religion
You're looking like an idiot
And you no longer care
And you want to bridge the schism
A built-in mechanism to protect you
And you're looking for salvation
And you're looking for deliverance
You're looking like an idiot
And you no longer care
'Cause you want to climb the ladder
You want to go forever
And you want to go out friday
You want to go forever

ALBUM: UP (1998)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CLIMBING UP THE WALLS/RADIOHEAD

I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection

I am her face when she sleeps tonight
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die

And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind

So lock the kids up safe tonight
Put the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling

And either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls

ALBUM: OK COMPUTER (1997)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IT'S EASIER/ JOHN GRANT

I don't know who I thought I was
I guess I tried to love you
Because I thought I could afford
To take the risk and take a chance
I do not know who I thought I was fooling
I must have felt invincible in your arms
Like I could take the whole world on

But it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

I wish that I could make you see
But clearly that is not to be
'Cause you will not be swayed by me
You've made it clear, you must be free
I would have sacrificed for you
I would have been so loyal and so true
But gifts this precious can't be offered up by fools

And it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

What's done is done
I cannot change the way I feel
And what's more I am certain that I don't regret a single thing

But sometimes I really miss your sweet sweet love
And wish that I'd wake up and this would all be just a dream

Yes it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me
And when you say you need me
Yes it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believe that you're deceiving me
If I believe that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

ALBUM: QUEEN OF DENMARK (2010)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SAFE WITHOUT/INTERPOL

I'm not the hero out the gates
So much to feel so much to gain
My higher reason will take aim
I'll be ok I've got my shapes
We are not alone we share our stake
I think the winter will be wonderful

I am safe without it
I am safe without it
I am safe without
I am safe without it
I am safe without it
I am safe without

Go alone we'll skip the chase
It's go the road or drop the weight
There's no alleigance left to take
As great big sheets disintegrate
In the water
In the water

I am safe without it
I am safe without it
I am safe without
I am safe without it
I am safe without it
I am safe without

I am safe without it
I am safe without it
I am safe without (I know the reason why)
I am safe without it (I know the reason why)
I am safe without it (I know the reason why)
I am safe without (I know the reason why)
But I feel this way
Feel this way
I steal, I kneel, and I do it again
Over and over and over and over

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SUCCESS/INTERPOL

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
See the great unknown
That's shade for miles
Good eye
I'm a good guy

Dreams of long life
What safety can you find
If the sea was that strong
Maybe we had
Maybe we had to fly
Was a good try
I'm a good guy

As high as the day
I read the papers
Before crime will pay
I'll learn to bury most beliefs

I have succeeded
I won't compete for long
I'm not supposed to show you
I've got two secrets
But I only told you one

Dreams of long life
What safety can you buy
If the sea was that strong
Maybe we had
Maybe we had to fly
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no
Somebody make me say no, no, no, yes

I have succeeded
I won't compete for long
I'm not supposed to show you
I've got two secrets
But I only told you one
I'm not supposed to show you

I'm not supposed to show you
I'm not supposed to
I'm not supposed to show you
I'm not supposed to
