LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HOUND OF WINTER/MOGWAI





Where did it go?
I don't know
Where is it now?
Where is it now?

Time hides things
Lies hide things
I hide things
I lose things

Where did it go?
I don't know
Where has it gone?
Where has it gone?

Time hides things
Lies hide things
I lose things
I break things
I forget
I fall away
I'm tired
I'm tired

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: SEX CHANGES/THE DRESDEN DOLLS





Dear Mr. and/or Mrs. sender
We're pleased to inform you that your applications been accepted
Starting from the time you get this letter
Your life will be one never-ending “hope you're feeling better”
You get your choice of an aesthetic
We'll need to chop your clock off (tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)
It might not be what you expected
There is no money back once you've been ripped off, ripped off, ripped off
Today's a very special day
The boys'll murder for it but what will the neighbors say
It leaves you feeling pretty hollow
It might be nice to look at
Don't forget you're stuck with it tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow

You're big enough to stop pretending
You'll start to really show within a week or so
So don't go saying it's just come to your attention
You'll get more than you're asking for without the right protection
Today's a very special day
And how you'd love to have a little thing with which to play
But love won't get you very far
Today be still your beating heart
You'll have to keep on feeding it tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

Boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys
Will be girls with no warning
Girls will be girls will be guys will be boys that don't cry over toys that they use to beat girls they despise by the morning
They always said that sex would change you, change you, change you, change you

No second thoughts the knife is nearing
You'll never hear the little pitter, patter, pitter, patter
Of this little feat of engineering
Of course I love you and of course it's what's inside that matters
But I think the whole charade is ending
It seems to me to be the only way to keep from getting
Caught up in a long life of regretting
The doctors said that once you get a taste for it you'll keep on cutting

But while you happen to be here
Why don't you whisper all those sweet forevers in my ear
Stiff upper lip for all this sorrow
Hurry up and stick it in
You never when it will end
Tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow
Tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow
Tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow
Tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow
They always said that sex would change you, change you, change you, change you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: CALLED OUT IN THE DARK/SNOW PATROL





It’s like we just can’t help ourselves
'Cause we don’t know how to back down
We were called out to the streets
We were called out into the towns
How the heaven’s they opened up
Black arms of dazzling gold
With our rain washed histories
When we’re do not need to be told

Show me now
Show me the arms aloft
Every eye trained on a different star
This my chick
This drunken centerfold

We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time

I was called out in the dark
By a choir of beautiful sheets
Now it’s the kids took back the parks
You and I were left with the streets

Show me now
Show me the arms aloft
Every eye trained on a different star
This my chick
This drunken centerfold

We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time

We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we’re not blind
This is your life, this is your time

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BELISPEAK/PURITY RING





Grandma, my sleepless know
That you bring me some strong drink
Straighten out the pots and set them close outside
For when my belly
For when my little belly speaks
Grandma, there's air beneath my bed
And it whispers
And it whispers when I rest
With hemmed skirts
And salt and vinegar, vinegar
And water closely
Water closely underhead
Grandma, the water is rising
By now this hair has gotten green
I'll be your swimming fodder starlet
When you walk safely, safely
Over me

Grandma, my hands have wondered
And my legs
My little legs are getting weak
Bed, lend me your wispy frame
And guard my powers
Guard my precious powers in its gate
Grandma, I've been unruly
In my dreams
And with my speech
Drill little holes into my eyelids
That I might see you
That I might see you when I sleep

Grandmother, the water is rising
By now this hair has gotten green
I'll be your swimming fodder starlet
And you walk safely, safely
Over me

I'll be your swimming fodder starlet

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: IF I HAD A GUN/NOEL GALLAGHER'S HIGH FLYING BIRDS





If I had a gun
I'd shoot a hole into the sun
And love would burn this city down for you
If I had the time
I'd stop the world and make you mine
And everyday would stay the same with you

Give you back the dream
And show you now what might have been
If all the tears you cry would fade away
I'll be by your side
When they come to say goodbye
We will live to fight another day

Excuse me if I spoke too soon
My eyes have always followed you around the room
'Cause you're the only god that I will ever need
I'm holding on and waiting for the moment to find me

Hope I didn't speak too soon
My eyes have always followed you around the room
'Cause you're the only god that I will ever need
I'm holding on and waiting for the moment
For my heart to be unbroken by the sea

Let me fly you to the moon
My eyes have always followed you around the room
'Cause you're the only god that I will ever need
I'm holding on and waiting for the moment to find me

If I had a gun
I'd shoot a hole into the sun
And love would burn this city down for you

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HO MANGIATO LA MIA RAGAZZA/LA SINTESI





Dottore ho urgente bisogno
Di parlare un po' con lei
Ho instaurato un rapporto morboso con la mia ragazza
Ho chiuso tutte le porte con il mondo
Ho dormito abbracciato ai suoi vestiti
Volevo quasi fermarla nell'ambra
Ma poi ho capito che il posto più sicuro era dentro di me

Ho mangiato la mia ragazza
Per la mia voglia di conoscere a fondo la verità
Ho mangiato la mia ragazza
Per contaminare la mia persona con le sue semplici qualità
Qualità

Volevo solo puntualizzare che non è bieca gelosia
Con quella ho sempre più o meno convissuto
Perchè la giudico una debolezza mia
Mi sono chiesto dove avesse l'anima
E non trovando una risposta
Ho pensato io la mangio e il mio metabolismo farà il resto

Ho mangiato la mia ragazza
Per la mia voglia di conoscere a fondo la verità
Ho mangiato la mia ragazza
Per contaminare la mia persona con le sue semplici qualità
Qualità

Volevo quasi fermarla nell'ambra
Ma poi ho capito che il posto più sicuro era dentro di me

Ho mangiato la mia ragazza
Per allargare la mia cultura inglobando la sua
Inglobando la sua
