LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHAT DO YOU WANT ME FOR?/OVERLORD

What do you want me for?
I always ask that of all my prey
Prey, tell me
What do you want me for?

Which florid lure first earned a look?
Which of all the many hooks got under your skin?
For future reference

What do you want me for?
It will decide everything I say
I'm ready
What do you want me for?

Which woeful tale or clever quip put you in my loving grip?
I'm always revising the script
So help me
What do you want me for?

It's not a lie
It's not a lie
If I make myself believe it
It's not a lie
It's not a lie

What do you want me for?
Don't be surprised how much we're the same
I've studied
What do you want me for?

Can you extend loving the attention
To loving the attendant?
Or you'll just refill my poison pen
When you leave
What do you want me for?

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WHAT THE WATER GAVE ME/FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE

Time it took us
To where the water was
That's what the water gave me
And time goes quicker
Between the two of us
Oh, my love don't forsake me
Take what the water gave me

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

And don't pull the atlas
The world's a beast of a burden
You've been holding on a long time
And all this longing
And the shields are left to rust
That's what the water gave us

So lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

'Cause they took your loved ones
But returned them in exchange for you
But would you have it any other way?
Would you have it any other way?
You could have had it any other way

'Cause she's a crueller mistress
And the bargain must be made
But oh, my love don't forget me
I let the water take me

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: YELLOW MISSING SIGNS/SOMEONE STILL LOVES YOU BORIS YELTSIN

Now I'm gonna tell you about Missouri

Somebody in this town knows where you've been
Somebody on your street isn't talking again

I'm your friend
Still missing

Yellow missing signs
Faded from all this time
I need to know
Where'd you go?
I'm still looking
Three missing women, never forget

Some people say that you're buried in a parking garage
Some people talk just to hear themselves speak all night long

I'm your friend
Still missing

Yellow missing signs
Faded from all this time
I need to know
Where'd you go?
I'm still looking
Three missing women, never forget

Take it, take it, take it
Take it all, take it all

I'm your friend
still missing

yellow missing signs
faded from all this time
I need to know
where'd you go?
I'm still looking
three missing women, never forget

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SHUFFLE/BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB

Weight is coming off
Soaring high
Pleading you to stay
Come alive
Say you need to sing it out
Say you wanna try
Say you haven’t had enough
Say you wanna

Once you get the feeling
It wants you back for more
Says it's gonna heal again
You won’t make the call
One step back, you’re leaving it
But now it’s moving on
Why won’t you believe in it
Until it’s gone

Fading out the light
Softly saying
Get it out my mind
Anyway
Say you need to sing it out
Say you wanna try
Say you haven’t had enough
Say you wanna

Once you get the feeling
It wants you back for more
It says it’s gonna heal again
You won’t make the call
One step back, you’re leaving it
Now it’s moving on
Why won’t you believe in it
Until it’s gone

Once you get the feel of it
It wants you back for more
Now it get’s a feel of it
Feeling it on the floor
One step, like you needed it
Jumping at the wall
Why won’t you believe in it
Until it’s gone

You gave to me, all I know
I will stay here
You gave to me, all I know
I will stay here
I will not go

Running out
You can make it through it
Running out
you can make it all

Once you get the feeling
It wants you back for more
It says it’s gonna heal again
You won’t make the call
One step back, you’re leaving it
Now it’s moving on
Why won’t you believe in it
Until it’s gone

Once you get the feel of it
It wants you back for more
Now it get’s a feel of it
Feeling it on the floor
One step, like you needed it
Jumping at the wall
Why won’t you believe in it
Until it’s gone

Of hell

Weather changes moods
Spring is here again

He’s the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means

And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means

We can have some more
Nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit
Tender age in bloom

He’s the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means

ALBUM: NEVERMIND (1991)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: OPIUM/THE NEW DIVISION

The secrets that you've always told me
I've put them all behind through getting high
The secrets that I never should've known
Are running through my veins into my soul

It just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day
This just comes in handy for a bad day

The heroin I take just helps me die
A slower death that keeps my soul alive
My dreams are filled as mystery unfolds
Another hedonistic tended goal

This just comes in handy for a bad day
All I wanna do is get a little hazed
This just comes in handy for a bad day
This just comes in handy for a bad day

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BRITTLE HEART/BRETT ANDERSON

Questa fa venir voglia di riascoltare gli Suede.




Give me your brittle heart and your ashtray eyes
I'll give you carpet burns
and sloe gin life
And all that power and all that passion can be ours tonight

Give me your brittle heart and I'll light a fire
I'll make an effigy from a lock of your hair
And all those cinders and all those embers can be ours to share

And now, take them all on and force down their doors now
Take them all on and walk through the walls now
Take them all on and crawl to your door
And crawl to your door

Give me your brittle heart and your orphan's eyes
I'll give you carpet burns and antiseptic skies
And all that power and all the passion can be ours tonight

And now, take them all on and force down their doors now
Take them all on and walk through the walls now
Take them all on and crawl to your door
And crawl to your door

And I'll come to you like a ship to the shore
Like a paper plane that falls to the floor
And I'll take them all on and crawl to your door
And crawl to your door

Give me your brittle heart
Give me your brittle heart
Give me your brittle heart
And I'll light a fire
Light a fire

Give me your brittle heart
Light a fire

ALBUM: CRAZY CLOWN TIME (2011)

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: THE SUBURBS/MR LITTLE JEANS

In the suburbs I
I learned to drive
And you told me we'd never survive
Grab your mother's keys we're leaving

You always seemed so sure
That one day we'd fight in
In a suburban world
Your part of town gets minor
So you're standing on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored

Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling again

Kids wanna be so hard
But in my dreams we're still screaming
And running through the yard
When all of the walls that they built in the 70's finally fall
And all of the houses they build in the 70's finally fall
Meant nothing at all
It meant nothing

Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling and into the night

So can you understand?
Why I want a daughter while I'm still young
I wanna hold her hand
And show her some beauty
Before this damage is done
But if it's too much to ask
If it's too much to ask
Then send me a son
Under the overpass
In the parking lot we're still waiting
It's already passed
So move your feet from hot pavement
And into the grass
'Cause it's already past
It's already, already past

Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can't believe it
I'm moving past the feeling again

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: RECKLESS SERENADE (ACOUSTIC)/ARCTIC MONKEYS

Topless models doing semaphore
Wave their flags as she walks by and get ignored
Illuminations on a rainy day
When she walks her footsteps sing
A reckless serenade

I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Call up to listen to the voice of reason
And got his answering machine

The type of kisses
Where teeth collide
When she laughs the heavens hum
A stun-gun lullaby
Those twinkling vixens
With the shining spiral eyes
Their hypnosis goes unnoticed
When she's walking by

I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Call up to listen to the voice of reason
And got the answering machine
I left my message but did he fuck get back to me
And now I'm stuck still wondering
How it's meant to be

Singing a reckless serenade
Reckless serenade
Reckless serenade
Reckless serenade
