Il Passaparola

Tom Petty con Eddie Vedder

The Waiting 

Oh, baby don't it feel like heaven right now
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream?
Yeah, I've never known nothing quite like this
Don't it feel like tonight might never be again
We know better than to try and pretend
Baby no one could have ever told me 'bout this

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part

Well Yeah, I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was down
Then there were those that made me feel good
But never as good as I feel right now
Baby you're the only one that's ever known how
To make me wanna live like I wanna live now

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more ca rd
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part

Don't let it kill you baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let 'em kill you baby, don't let 'em get to you
I'll be your breathin' heart, I'll be your cryin' fool

Don't let this go to far, don't let it get to you

Ch-Check It Out

All you trekkies and tv addicts
Don't mean to diss
Don't mean to bring static
All you Clingons in the fuckin’ house
Grab your backstreet friend and get loud
Blowin' doors off hinges
I'll grab you with the pinchers
And no, I didn't retire
I'll snatch you up
With the needle nose pliers

Like mutual of Omaha
Got the ill boat
You've never seen before
Gliding in the glades
And like Lorne Greene
You know I get paid
Like caprese and with the basil
Not goofy like Darren or Hazel
I'm a mother fuckin’ “Nick at Night”
With classics rerunning that you know all right
Now remain calm no alarm
‘Cause my farm ain't fat
So what's up with that?
I've got friends and family that I respect
When I think I'm too good
They put me in check
So believe when I say I'm no better than you
Except when I rap
So I guess it ain't true
Like that y'all and you just don't stop
Guaranteed to make your body rock

Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out
What-wha-what-what-what's it all about
Work-wa-work-work-work-wa-work it out
Let's turn this motherfuckin' party out

Said, "Doc what's the condition?”
I'm a man that's on a mission
Said, "Son, you'd better listen
Stuck in your ass
Is an electrician"
Like a scientist
Mmmm when I'm applying this
Method of controlling my mind
Like Einstein and the Rappin' Duke combined
Hey baby bubba now what the deal
I didn't know you go for that mass appeal
Some call it salugi
Some hot potato
I stole your mic and you won't see it later
Cause I work magic like a magician
I add up like a mathematician
I'm a bank cashier
Engineer
I wear cotton but I don't wear sheer

Shazam and abracadabra
In the whip I'm gonna cruise past ya
Yo money, don't chump yourself
Put that shit back on the shelf
Light rays blazin'
You're out of phase
And my crews amazin'
We're working on the record yo
So stay patient

Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out
What-wha-what-what-what's it all about
Work-wa-work-work-work-wa-work it out
Let's turn this motherfuckin' party out

Now, I go by the name of the King Adrock
I don't wear a cup nor a jock
I bring the shit that's beyond bizarre
Like Miss Piggy
Muuoooa
I am the one with the clientele.
You say, "Adrock, you rock so well"
I've got class like pink champale
MCA grab the mic before the mic goes stale

Don't test me
They can't arrest me
I'll fake right cross-over and shoot lefty
You look upset, yo calm down
You look cable guy dunked off of your crown
I flow like smoke out a chimney
You never been me
You wanna rap but what you're making ain't hip hop B

Get your clothes right out the dryer
Put armor all up on your tire
Sport that fresh attire
Tonight we goin' out set the town on fire
Set the town ablaze
Gonna stun and amaze
Ready to throw a craze
Make your granny shake her head
And say, "Those were the days"

Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out
What-wha-what-what-what's it all about
Work-wa-work-work-work-wa-work it out
Let's turn this motherfuckin' party out

Candy's Room

In Candy's room .. there are pictures of her heroes on the wall

But to get to Candy's room .. you gotta walk .. the darkness .. of Candy's hall

Strangers from the city .. call my baby's number .. they bring her toys

But when I come knocking .. she smiles pretty .. she knows I wanna be .. Candy's boy

There's a sadness .. hidden in that pretty face

A sadness all her own .. from which .. no .. man .. can keep Candy safe

We kiss .. my heart's rushes to my brain

The blood rushes in my veins .. and fire rushes towards the sky

We go .. driving .. driving deep into the night

I go driving deep into the light .. in Candy's eyes

She says baby if you wanna be wild

You got a lot to learn, close your eyes

Let them melt, let them fire, let them burn

Cause in the darkness .. there'll be hidden worlds that shine

When I hold Candy close .. she makes these hidden worlds mine

She .. has fancy clothes and diamond rings

She .. has men who give her anything .. she wants .. but they don't see

That what .. she .. wants .. is .. me

Oh and I want her so

I'll never let her go, no no no

She knows .. that I'd .. give

All that I got to give

All that I want .. all that I live

To make .. Candy mine

Tonight

Gruppo: Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band Canzone: "Candy's Room"

Because the Night

Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close try and understand
I work all day out in the hot sun
Stay with me now till the morning comes

Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends

They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

What I got I have earned
What I'm not darling I have learned
Desire and hunger is the fire I breathe
Just stay in my bed till the morning comes

Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in your hands
Take me now as the sun descends

They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now
They can't hurt you now

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Your love is here and now
The vicious circle turns and burns without
Though I cannot live forgive me now
The time has come to take this moment and
They can't hurt you now They can't hurt us now

Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us
Because the night belongs to lovers
Because the night belongs to us

Caro Sig. Presidente

Caro Sig. Presidente

Vieni a fare una passeggiata con me

Fingiamo di essere soltanto due persone

E tu non sei migliore di me

Vorrei farti delle domande..

Se possiamo parlare onestamente

 

Cosa provi quando vedi i senzatetto per strada?

A chi preghi la notte prima di metterti a dormire?

Cosa provi guardandoti allo specchio?

..Sei fiero?

 

Come riesci a dormire mentre il resto di noi piange?

Come riesci a sognare quando una madre non ha la possabilita’ di dire ‘Addio’?

Come riesci a camminare a testa alta?

Almeno puoi guardarmi negli occhi..e dirmi perche’?

 

Caro Sig. Presidente

Eri un ragazzo solitario?

Sei un ragazzo solitario?

 

Come puoi dire, “Nessun bambino lasciato alle spalle?”

Non siamo ne scemi ne ciechi

Siedono nelle tue celle mentre gli spiani la strada per l’inferno

 

Che tipo di padre toglierebbe i diretti della propria figlia?

E che tipo di padre odierebbe la figlia se fosse gay?

Posso solo immaginare cosa la First Lady abbia da dire

Provieni da una lunga strada..di whiskey e cocaine

 

Come riesci a dormire mentre il resto di noi piange?

Come riesci a sognare quando una madre non ha la possabilita’ di dire ‘Addio’?

Come riesci a camminare a testa alta?

Almeno puoi guardarmi negli occhi..?

 

Lascia che ti parli del lavoro duro

Incasso minimo e un bambino sulle spalle

 

Lascia che ti parli del lavoro duro

Ricostruire la tua casa dopo che le bombe te l’hanno buttata giu’

 

Lascia che ti parli del lavoro duro

Costruirsi un letto con scatole di cartone

Lascia che ti parli del lavoro duro

Lavoro duro..Lavoro duro

 

Tu non ne sai niente di lavoro duro

Lavoro duro..Lavoro duro

 

Caro Sig. Presidente

Non te la faresti mai una camminata con me..
