Janis Joplin – Magic Of Love
“Magic Of Love”
Alright,
You went away, had your chance to say
“I love you and I need you baby”
Yeah, but even if
Honey, I told you daddy now
You wouldn’t believe me anyway, no, no, no.
Maybe you will now,
I’ve changed a lot somehow,
Let me do what I say.
Come back and believe my love,
Please! Now, come back and believe my love,
Come back, and believe the magic of love.
Oh, I want the light without the darkness
I want the sky without the sun, yeah!
When do the stars and the moon reach out ?
When they see me alone without my loved one, yeah!
Oh, now baby, don’t you hear me,
Won’t-t-t-t-t-t-t you hear me I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta tell you,
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
Honey, I just gotta tell you now,
Honey, I wanna tell you that I want you to dig it!
Now if you believe in magic,
Don’t be afraid, afraid to use it, baby,
No, no, no, no, no, no, come on home
Dressed in the mystic silk
Or wearing rich rags and waste
Darling, please!
Come on back to me
I know we can be
Part of a magic race.
Come back, and believe my love
Come back, please believe my love
Come back and believe the magic of love.
Hey! Now come back, babe, and believe my love
Come back, please believe my love
Come back and believe the magic of love.

I 100 libri della BBC
In facebook gira questo meme o “catena di sant’Antonio”, che vorrebbe la BBC impegnata in un sondaggio sul numero di libri letti in una lista di 100 titoli. Il meme riporta che “la maggior parte delle persone ha letto solo 6 libri tra questi 100”. In realtà la BBC si era limitata a stilare una lista di 100 titoli favoriti nel Regno Unito, qui. La lista rimaneggiata e associata alla falsa notizia sta facendo il giro della terra. Chiarita la questione e volendo partecipare al gioco incollo di seguito la lista che circola in lingua italiana, in neretto ci sono i libri che ho letto io, sono più di 6 😉

Runs In The Family “Who Killed Amanda Palmer”
My friend has problems with winter and autumn
they give him prescriptions, they shine bright lights on him
they say it’s genetic, they say he can’t help it
they say you can catch it – but sometimes you’re born with it
my friend has blight he gets shakes in the night
and they say there is no way that they could have caught it in
time takes its toll on him, it is traditional
it is inherited predisposition
all day i’ve been wondering what is inside of me, who can i blame for it
i say:
it runs in the family, this famine that carries me
to such great lengths to open my legs
up to anyone who’ll have me
it runs in the family, i come by it honestly
do what you want ‘cause who knows it might fill me up
my friend’s depressed, she’s a wreck, she’s a mess
they’ve done all sorts of tests and they guess it has something to do
with her grandmother’s grandfather’s
grandmother civil war soldiers who
badly infected her
my friend has maladies, rickets, and allergies that she dates back to
the 17th century
somehow she manages – in her misery – strips in the city
and shares all her best tricks with me?
well, i’m well. well, i mean i’m in hell. well, i still have my health
(at least that’s what they tell me)
if wellness is this, what in hell’s name is sickness?
but business is business!
and business
runs in the family, we tend to bruise easily
bad in the blood i’m telling you ‘cause
i just want you to know me
know me and my family
we’re wonderful folks but
don’t get too close to me ‘cause you might knock me up
mary have mercy now look what i’ve done
but don’t blame me because i can’t tell where i come from
and running is something that we’ve always done
well and mostly i can’t even tell what i’m running from
i run from their pity
from responsibility
run from the country
and run from the city
i can run from the law
i can run from myself
i can run for my life
i can run into debt
i can run from it all
i can run till i’m gone
i can run for the office
and run from the ‘cause
i can run using every last ounce of energy
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot
run from my family
they’re hiding inside me
corpses on ice
come in if you’d like
but just don’t tell my family
they’d never forgive me
they’ll say that i’m crazy
but they would say anything if it would
shut me up…..
