LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: GROWN MAN CRY/AMANDA PALMER & THE GRAND THEFT ORCHESTRA

We are standing on the threshold
Of a decent conversation
When I can hear the door slam
I know the face you're making
And I really want to talk to you
I really, really wanted to
But once you get your mind made up
There is no getting through to you
For a while it was touching
For a while it was challenging
Before it became typical
And now it really isn't interesting
To see a grown man cry
To see a grown man cry

I'm lying on the sofa and the radio is blaring
And I'm scanning through the stations as the boys declare their feelings
But it doesn't feel like feelings
It feels like they're pretending
It's like they just want blowjobs
And they know these songs will get them
And I really want to talk to you
I really, really wanted to
But i have learned my lesson now
And you’re not the one I'm turning to
And for a while it was touching
For a while it was challenging
Before it got habitual
And now it really isn't interesting
To see a grown man cry
To see a grown man cry

I was the first to warn you
I lay myself before you
I was the first to warn you
I put myself before you

We are standing on the corner
And you're throwing down the gauntlet
It is not a life decision
We just need to pick a restaurant
After all this I should know you
Well enough not to get into it
I should learn but I'm an idiot
You only want an argument
And for a while it was touching
It was almost even comforting
Before it became typical
And now it really is not interesting
To see a grown man cry
To see a grown man cry
To see a grown man throw a temper fit
To see a grown man cross his arms and sit
As if the whole wide world would end
If he was not a part of it
But at the same time with no confidence
Never realizing the consequence
He's having on the ones he loves
Because he thinks he makes no difference

We are standing on the threshold
Of a decent conversation
When I can hear the door slam
I know the face you're making
And I really want to talk to you
I really, really wanted to
But this time I am giving up
I am simply giving up on you

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: EVERY SINGLE NIGHT/FIONA APPLE

Every single night I endure the flight
Of little whims of white flame
Butterflies in my brain
These ideas of mine percolate the mind
Trickle down the spines
Form the belly swelling to a blaze
That's where the pain comes in
Like a second skeleton
Trying to fit beneath the skin
I can't fit the feelings in
Every single night's alive
With my brain

What I say to her
Why'd I say it to her
What does she think of me
That I'm not what I ought to be
That I'm what I try not to be
Has got to be somebody else's fault
I can't get caught
If what I am is what I am
'Cause I does what I does
Then brother get back 'cause my breast gonna bust open
The rib is the shell and the heart is the yolk
And I just made a meal for us both to choke on
Every single night's a fight
With my brain

I just wanna feel everything
I just wanna feel everything
I just wanna feel everything
So I'm gonna try to be still now
Gonna renounce the mill a while
And if we had a double king size bed
We could move in and i'd soon forget
If what I am is what I am
'Cause I does what I does
And maybe I'd relax let my breast just bust open
My hearts made of parts of all that's around me
And that's why the devil just cant get around me
Every single night's alright
Every single night's a fight
Every single fight's alright
With my brain

I just wanna feel everything
I just wanna feel everything
I just wanna feel everything
I just wanna feel everything

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: VELOCIRAPTOR!/KASABIAN

Blast off
He’ll try to shoot you with precision
Take your face off
Young disciple into life
He was hung up
By the meaning of existence
You be let down
So don’t you fall in with the

Velociraptor!
He’s gonna find you
He’s gonna kill you
He’s gonna eat you
You’re on the outskirts
Of his kingdom
So keep your head down
Velociraptor!

Shake down
Go get your suitcase
Call a director
Tell everyone in sight
This is an air raid
You wanna get laid
But he is closing
He ain’t toothless man

Velociraptor!
He’s gonna find you
He’s gonna kill you
He’s gonna eat you
You’re on the outskirts
Of his kingdom
So keep your head down
Velociraptor!

There’s nothing to it
There’s nothing to it man
There’s nothing to it
There’s nothing to it man
And now your lying here
While everyones asleep
They just wanna suck
Your blood

Blast off
On the model for collision
Get scared now
‘Cause there’s nowhere left to hide
Are you ready
Feel the scratching getting closer
There’s no foolin'
And you’re the only one alive

The voodoo, the vaccine, the boredom, the routine
Maintaining your movement
It's all got too much
For the addicts, the manics, the paper, the vapour
The pressure of so called
Normal behaviour

There’s nothing to it
There’s nothing to it man
There’s nothing to it
There’s nothing to it man
And now your lying there
while everyones asleep
They just wanna suck
Your blood

Velociraptor!
He’s gonna find you
He’s gonna kill you
He’s gonna eat you
You’re on the outskirts
Of his kingdom
So keep your head down
Velociraptor!

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: TWO WEEKS/GRIZZLY BEAR

Save up all the days
A routine malaise
Just like yesterday
I told you
I would stay

Would you always?
Maybe sometimes?
Make it easy?
Take your time

Think of all the ways
Momentary phase
Just like yesterday
I told you
I would stay
Every time you try
Quarter half a mile
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Would you always?
Maybe sometimes?
Make it easy?
Take your time

Always
Sometimes
Easy
Time
