I Got You on Tape все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

the sound of laughter televised into your eyes and out of your ears
the show that won’t begin until the music’s dead and everyone’s gone home
soda pops and candybars lying on the floor
singing for tomorrow

your bubblegum exploding through the ceiling
giving you a warm feeling inside
forgetting everything you might be feeling

sometime near in the future shortly after the storm
i’ll be crossing the border if you want to come along
birds will flock in the valley to see where the horses have gone
you and i will be married and the choir will sing a song

and i will be safely on my way
to keep you company
to bring you home to where you belong

anger starts when you decide to go back home
terrified from all that you’ve seen
scratching sounds coming from your telephone
fading lights through your tv screen

if you feel what i am feeling i don’t know
what to say or to believe
guess we got it wrong i’m sorry should have known

and i sat at the watch tower
and i didn’t do a thing
blowing smoke to the air with a window open for you
and i saw it was late
and i dreamt to be alone
i was talking on the phone and it felt like something you’d do

nothing comes from my calling

favorite drug of the year 2005
on the tip of my tongue more dead than alive
shot my blood cocaine
felt it wash my brain like i was guacamole
i could do it with you, push go to give in
no matter what i’d choose i’d be singing to win
i have no control but i shine like gold whenever on the dancefloor

there’s really nothing new to this it’s nice to have you with me as i go
a bumpy ride for sure but you can stand up there’s no need for you to crawl
sang to the bourgeosise as you went and broke the ladder
and left no way to get upstairs
doors were of a different kind
and led towards a cinematic meltdown
time to step outside and think of how and when to change the key
there’s really nothing new to this besides i tend to do things very slow

for the first time in this world
for the boys and for the girls
for the loss of self control
for the young and for the old

comes the fact
that the planet survives cause the sun is detached from the moon
we can try to be all that we want telling lies that turn out to be true

people and payment
echoes of cool in the air
loveless dragons in everholy matrimony
birds and bees banging quietly out in the night
on sad memories
to form a dark love movement
to make a dead song disappear
to have cherry red evening babies

left you bleeding when i did my taekwondo
and drove my motorbike to heaven
clairvoyant for a minutes time or two
i had you breathles for a second

caught you hanging in my club around midnight
took you out in a shaolin swordfight
give me your heart then i might leave you be

we like to sit around and watch the buildings collide
walk the sunny beaches with nothing but a smile
stranger than a teardrop falling from the eye
louder than a shotgun, hello and goodbye

ever too mysterious and sort of in your way whenever you’ve got something good to say
put it in your pocket, throw it far away
dig it down a hole and tell your friends to take a dive, tell them all of what you did today

and that’s all there is to me and you
it’s what comes next when dreams come true
i am not to decide what’s right and wrong
what will be left when i am dead and gone

i miss you more to speak the truth
your government all of my youth
and the rhythm machines just do their best

without speaking my name you said it loud and clear
voices in a tight spot come on over here
every single day of the week will have to do by now
anywhere you want to go is all fine by me

the legend of a pink ferrari, the loss of something dear to you
your reason to be cheerful, your very first day in school
the voices in the back of your head sailing a diamond sea

when the clocks turn ten i will let you in my room once more
goes to show that i’m not all done with your help
when i’m on your case while breathing down your neck real slow
guess i’ve got another story to tell

so i speak it till we both grow old and tired
do the math it takes to leave you there
while thinking nobody does it better

we’ll have to blow the whistle on love for now
talk about the weather and begin having babies
draw it up in silhouette and write it down
inner city living with the house kept ladies

i’ve got room for you right here
all you have to do is say ‘i don’t want to stay where i stand’
and sit a little longer on the right side

i am a man with a love for the light
who wants to forgive and forget
i seek and destroy every devil in sight
the living as well as the dead
i am a being of space and of time
standing on top of the world
speaking of what ever is on my mind
singing because of a girl

switch it on if you feel the reason to stay
lay it down for a while next to a neighbour friend
do your job two times feeling better today
have it come through your nose, no need to pretend

very calm when you hit the highscore
feel your blood boil over
only when you’re singing the blues

I am one out of a billion
sitting down below a star
when i look up to the sky it doesn’t seem to be that far
if I did forget to mention
what goes on inside my heart
i can tell you nothing more or less than saying for a start
that I’ll give you almost everything
you can reach me where the stone turns to dust

i’ve been wanting to say the word but it don’t seem right yet
like a warm locomotive going cold i’ve been sleeping odd for a while
where the bushes come in all kind of colors
where i learn to stay awake
i am buzzing like a chainsaw
so i turn to you, we talk about the weather
and i guess you feel the same
guess you think you want what i’ve got

now it comes and it goes and it feels like you know that i’ve already made you my friend
given the chance with the shake of a hand comes a question before we begin
will you be there when i’m gasping for air and my breath is the last of its kind
when it’s all that i have and my years are the ones left behind?

practically yours i am changing my course as we talk of what’s out of our reach
we don’t pay to feel and the water is free so we’re leaving our clothes out to bleach
just for a while with a tear and smile can i make this my home and my crib

and i never drank alcohol and i never got high
it was the end of a hundred years that took me by surprise
what i thought to be dangerous, on the verge of a smile
turning out to be nothing more than hiss and overdrive

and there is nothing or noone more powerful
and the light that shines upon you says the same
when i wake up i’m doing a somersault

when your words are met by silence
from a heart of rock and stone
when you miss your friends and parents
and you’re feeling all alone

as you talk about the winter
summer comes to lead you on
wanting only to surrender

breakfast comes at eight and i am wide awake
nine with my head spinning for the cause
morning glory hits me like a hurricane
shakes me like the beatles and the doors
tender is the word i give to you my love
never knowing what it really means
do you want to come along when i leave home
and top it off with pills and ecstasy

so i’ve got it down to sticks and bars
like so many before me
i’ve come to know your worth in superstars
while going across the sea

boxes filled up with grains of sand
light shining as we’re filled with laughter
cover me now come hold my hand

putting words together so that they will form a melody
in a heart that wants to rhyme
sentences that complement each other almost perfectly
from another place and time
i walk within the treadmill
i do not make a sound
i’m waiting for my love to come around
giving all of my attention

this one
too much to handle
only to honor you
i’m done
with being gentle
and wanting you want me too
through many mysterious ways that we talk to eachother
trying to work things out

so this is where it all begins
true love about to burn your skin
banging heads against the wall
something dangerous

because you don’t know where to hide
break down crying on the inside
because you don’t know where to turn

Head on backwards, turning upside down
a drop of milk spilled on my wedding gown
a ticket to ride and a feeling of something peculiar
a night to remember
a day like no others before
That’s when my machines come out to play
like shining stars and speeding cars on open highways
the times I love the most is when we’re only halfway there

i could wait a while, say a prayer and start to smile
turn around to walk away and leave you paralyzed
do it side by side, walking slowly down the isle
quiet conversation with the father of the bride

but he might not let me in
it’s a right and wrong decision
where i walk too slow and gently lift my hat for him
