LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PARKLIFE/BLUR FEAT. PHIL DANIELS





Confidence is a preference for the habitual voyeur of what is known as
(Parklife)
A morning suit can be avoided if you take a route straight through what is known as
(Parklife)
John's got brewers droop he gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons they love a bit of it
(Parklife)
Who's that gut lord marching you should cut down on your porklife mate get some exercise

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife
You know what I mean

I get up when I want except on wednesdays when I get rudely awakened by the dustmen
(Parklife)
I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea and I think about leaving the house
(Parklife)
I feed the pigeons, I sometimes feed the sparrows too it gives me a sense of enormous well being
(Parklife)
And then i'm happy for the rest of the day safe in the knowledge there will always be a bit of my heart devoted to it

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife

It's got nothing to do with vorsprung durch technic you know
And it's not about you joggers who go round and round and round

All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife
All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: UNDER THE WESTWAY/BLUR





It was a bright day in the city today
Everything was sinking says
Sport would come on sunday
The old school would do
And the traffic grew
Upon the Westway
We all sat watching comets lost in town
Shining up above me
The jet fuel inferno
Clouds above where's the money always come first
And the sirens sing

So here is the day we sweep shaft through the ships
'Cause men in yellow jackets
Putting adverts inside my dreams
And all the ladies fawned
And the whole world gone
Fallen under the spell of the changing ways
We all communicate
So standing out shortwaves
Somewhere here out in space
And the rains hail above
And the hearts on fire
Under the Westway

Give me magic carrot city above
Still standing although it's cold
And the flags coming down
The old row sound
Just like a love song
Falling away I'm feeling down too
Paradise not lost, it's in the earth
I apologize
But I am not a saint
But I am gonna sing

Hallelujah
Singing out loud
And sing it to you
In my lost limousine
And wash me off the Westway

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BATTLE/BLUR





Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone

Concaesing slash
Here I love the bow
See me walk on down to
Adorn myself, it's the end of hell
See me what you think of now

Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone

Can turn your sights
Kill until sub-zero
See me
Oh, it turns you on
Give me foil
It's the end of your
See me overcome

Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: APPLE CARTS/DAMON ALBARN



L'opera prima di Damon Albarn, ovvero la sua prima opera teatrale. Del resto, dai Blur in poi, tutto quello che tocca (dai Gorillaz a The Good, The Bad & The Queen) se proprio non diventa oro, quantomeno riluce.

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: REVOLVING DOORS/GORILLAZ





Revolving doors, what have I done?
Someone on the TV, tipping low
Revolving doors, what will I become?
And red-neck song
You payed up for a seven
But he only got an eight, eight, now, now
I feel that I'm paused
By all the bills, I seem to run in

On a foggy day
(Revolving doors)

I sit in a diner, and The Beatles play
I payed up for a seven, but I only got SOA, now, now
I feel I'm paused
By all the bills, I seem to run out here

Revolving doors, stole me on the eastern sea board
He got silver on his nose?
He payed up for three, but got only two
And he said "Seems I was born for this"
"Seems I was born to this"
Revolving doors
Revolving doors

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RIHNESTONE EYES/GORILLAZ





I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your loves' like rhinestones, falling from the sky
When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep
Drive on engines till they weep
With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beach
All parties now washed up in bleach
The waves are rising for this time of year
And nobody knows what to do with the heat
Under sunshine pylons we'll meet
Like future pixels in factories far away

I got a feeling now my heart is frozen
All the bowses and the growses
Have been abstinated in my soul
I prayed on the immovable yet
Clinging to the atoms of rocks
Seasons the adjustments signs of change
I can't see now she said taxi
Now that light is all I can take
This dawn brings strange loyalties and skies
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your loves' like rhinestones, falling from the sky

Helicopters fly over the beach
Same time everyday same routine
Clear target in the summer when skies are blue
Its part of the noise when winter comes
It reverberates in my lungs
Natures' corrupted in factories far away

Here we go again
That's electric
Your loves' like rhinestones, falling from the sky
That's electric
We are future pixels in factories far away
Here we go again
That's electric
Your loves' like rhinestones, falling from the sky
That's electric
With future pixels in factories far away
Here we go again

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: MR. ROBINSON'S QUANGO/BLUR





Mr. Robinson
And his quango
Dirty dealer
Expensive car
Runs the buses and the Evening Star
He got a hairpiece
He got herpes
His private life is very discreet
A nicer man, no, you're never gonna meet
He's the self-confessed saviour of the dim right wing
He got respiratory problems and a mason's ring

Mr. Robinson
And his quango
Drinks with generals and county wives
The family business is doing alright
They're doing tangos
Down in the quangos
He makes them tick
He makes them tock
And if you don't fit
He put you in the dock
He just sits in his leather chair and twiddles his thumb
Gets his secretary in and pinches her bum

He ran into the toilets in the town hall
He got his biro out and wrote on the wall
I'm wearing black French knickers under my suit
I've got stocking and suspenders on
I'm feeling rather loose
I'm a naughty boy
I'm a naughty, naughty boy

He's the self-confessed saviour of the dim right wing
He got respiratory problems and a mason's ring

I'm a naughty boy
I'm a naughty, naughty boy
I'm a naughty boy
I'm a naughty, naughty boy

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: KINGDOM OF DOOM/THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE QUEEN





Friday night
In the kingdom of doom
Ravens fly
Across the moon
All in now
There’s a noise in the sky
Following all the rules
And not asking why
When the sunset wheel begins
Turning into the night
I see everything in black and white
And then

Drink all day
Coz the country's at war
You'll be falling off the palace walls
I can’t be anymore than I say
In the flood you'll be washed away
When the sunset wheel begins
Turning into the night
I see everything in black and white
Become a love song for the collaboration
You and me will never be undone
We’ll let it blow away

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: ON MELANCHOLY HILL/GORILLAZ





Up on melancholy hill
There's a plastic tree
Are you here with me
Just looking out on the day
Of another dream
Well you can't get what you want
But you can get me
So let's set up and see
'Cause you are my medicine
When you're close to me
When you're close to me

So call in the submarine
Round the world will go
Does anybody know
If we're looking out on the day
Of another dream

If you can't get what you want
Then you come with me

Up on melancholy hill
A manatee?
Just looking out on the day
When you're close to me
When you're close to me

When you're close to me

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SPLITTING THE ATOM/MASSIVE ATTACK




Diretto da EDOUARD SALIER

The baby was born
Nettles and ferns
The evening it chokes
The candle it burns
This disguise covers
Bitter lies
Repeating the joke
The meaning it dies
Pass me a coat I'm not afraid to leave
I'm letting you know
I know what you need
I'll turn you around
This beautiful town
And then you'll believe it when your eyes then deceive you

It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
Don't lose it

Its getting colder outside
Your rented space
They shadow box and they
Paper chase
It never stops
And we'll never learn
No hope without dope
The jobless return
The bankers have bailed
The mighty retreat
The pleasure it fails
At the end of the week
You take it or leave
Or what you receive
To what you receive
Is eternited leave

It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
It's easy, don't let it go
Don't lose it

Incandescent light at doors
In adolescent menopause
In little clicks you got the music stops
The needle sticks and the penny drops
The summer's gone before you know
The muffled drums of relentless flow
You're looking at stars that give you Vertigo
The sun's still burning and dust will blow
Honey scars I'll keep you near
Our blood is gold nothing to fear
We killed the time and I love you dear
A kiss of wine we'll disappear
The last of the last particles
Divisible invisible
The last of the last particles
Divisible invisible

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SATURDAY COME SLOW/MASSIVE ATTACK FEAT. DAMON ALBARN





Lost in the magic
From the last time
This town turning
My rose to desire

Saturday come slow
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Is there nothing there

In the limestone caves
In the southways lands
One time in the kingdom
Belief is on the stand

Saturday come slow
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Is there nothing there

Saturday come slow
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Do you love me?
Is there nothing there
