KNOCKIN' ON HEAVEN'S DOOR

(Gun’s “N” Roses)

 

[versione originale di Bob Dylan]

 

Mama take this badge from me

I can't use it anymore

It's getting dark, to dark to see

Feels like I'm Knockin' On Heaven's Door

Kn-kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Mama put my guns in the ground

I can't shoot them anymore

That cold black cloud is coming down

Feels like I'm knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

"You better start sniffin' your own

rank subjugation jack 'cause its just you

against your tattered libido, the bank and

the mortician, forever man and it wouldn't

be luck if you could get out of life alive"

Kn-kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

Kn-knockin' on Heaven's Door

 

 

BETTER MAN

(Pearl Jam)

 

Waiting watching the clock it's four o'clock it's got to stop

Tell him take no more she practices her speech

As he opens the door she rolls over pretends to sleep as he looks her over

She lies and says she's in love with him can't find a better man

She dreams in color she dreams in red can't find a better man

Can't find a better man 

Ohh

Talkin' to herself there's no one else who needs to know she tells herself oh

Memories back when she was bold and strong and waiting for the world to come along

Swears she knew it now she swears he's gone

She lies and says she's in love with him can't find a better man

She dreams in color she dreams in red can't find a better man

She lies and says she still loves him can't find a better man

She dreams in color she dreams in red can't find a better man

Can't find a better man 

Yeah

She loved him yeah she don't want to leave this way

She feeds him yeah that's why she'll be back again

Can't find a better man can't find a better man 

Can't find a better man

Ohh ohh

Uh huh 

Ohh

 

 

BLACK

(Pearl Jam)

 

Hey ooh

Sheets of empty canvas untouched sheets of clay

Were laid spread out before me as her body once did

All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun

Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh and all I taught her was everything

Ooh I know she gave me all that she was

And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds

Of what was everything

Oh the pictures have all been washed in black tattooed everything

I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play

I can feel their laughter so why do I sear

Ooh and twisted thoughts that spin round my head

I'm spinning oh I'm spinning

How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass

Of what was everything

All the pictures have all been washed in black tattooed everything

All the love gone bad turned my world to black

Tattooed all I see all that I am all I'll be yeah

Uh huh...uh huh...ooh

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life I know you'll be a star

In somebody else's sky but why why why can't it be a can't it be mine
Oh...ohh yea oh

Do do do do do do do 

Yeaa...Yeaa...ha

Ha 

Yea  

 

 

NOVEMBER RAIN

(Gun’s “N” Roses)

 

When I look into your eyes

I can see a love restrained

But darlin' when I hold you

Don't you know I feel the same

 

'Cause nothin' lasts forever

And we both know hearts can change

And it's hard to hold a candle

In the cold November rain

 

We've been through this auch a long long time

Just tryin' to kill the pain

 

But lovers always come and lovers always go

An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today

Walking away

 

If we could take the time

to lay it on the line

I could rest my head

Just knowin' that you were mine

All mine

So if you want to love me

then darlin' don't refrain

Or I'll just end up walkin'

In the cold November rain

 

Do you need some time...on your own

Do you need some time...all alone

Everybody needs some time...

on their own

Don't you know you need some time...all alone

 

I know it's hard to keep an open heart

When even friends seem out to harm you

But if you could heal a broken heart

Wouldn't time be out to charm you

 

Sometimes I need some time...on my

own

Sometimes I need some time...all alone

Everybody needs some time...

on their own

Don't you know you need some time...all alone

 

And when your fears subside

And shadows still remain

I know that you can love me

When there's no one left to blame

So never mind the darkness

We still can find a way

'Cause nothin' lasts forever

Even cold November rain

 

Don't ya think that you need somebody

Don't ya think that you need someone

Everybody needs somebody

You're not the only one

You're not the only one

 

CIVIL WAR

(Gun’s “N” Roses)

 

"What we've got here is failure to

communicate.

Some men you just can't reach...

So, you get what we had here last week,

which is the way he wants it!

Well, he gets it!

N' I don't like it any more than you men." *

 

Look at your young men fighting

Look at your women crying

Look at your young men dying

The way they've always done before

 

Look at the hate we're breeding

Look at the fear we're feeding

Look at the lives we're leading

The way we've always done before

 

My hands are tied

The billions shift from side to side

And the wars go on with brainwashed pride

For the love of God and our human rights

And all these things are swept aside

By bloody hands time can't deny

And are washed away by your genocide

And history hides the lies of our civil wars

 

 

D'you wear a black armband

When they shot the man

Who said "Peace could last forever"

And in my first memories

They shot Kennedy

I went numb when I learned to see

So I never fell for Vietnam

We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all

That you can't trust freedom

When it's not in your hands

When everybody's fightin'

For their promised land

 

And

I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

 

Look at the shoes your filling

Look at the blood we're spilling

Look at the world we're killing

The way we've always done before

Look in the doubt we've wallowed

Look at the leaders we've followed

Look at the lies we've swallowed

And I don't want to hear no more

 

My hands are tied

For all I've seen has changed my mind

But still the wars go on as the years go by

With no love of God or human rights

'Cause all these dreams are swept aside

By bloody hands of the hypnotized

Who carry the cross of homicide

And history bears the scars of our civil wars

 

"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS

FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM

THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM

AS POPULAR WAR ADVANCES

PEACE IS CLOSER" **

 

I don't need your civil war

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

And I don't need your civil war

I don't need your civil war

I don't need your civil war

Your power hungry sellin' soldiers

In a human grocery store

Ain't that fresh

I don't need your civil war

I don't need one more war

 

I don't need one more war

Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway

 

*Strother Martin-from the film Cool Hand Luke

**Peruvian Guerilla General

 

 

 

THE MIRACLE

  (Queen)

 

Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert

says it all

It's a miracle

All God's creations great and small

The Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal

That's a miracle

Test tube babies being born

Mothers,fathers dead and gone

It's a miracle

 

We're having a miracle on earth

Mother nature does it all for us

The wonders of this world go on

The hanging Gardens of Babylon

Captain Cook and Cain and Able

Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel

It's a miracle it's a miracle it's a miracle

It's a miracle

 

The one thing we're all waiting for is peace on earth

an end to war

It's a miracle we need - the miracle

The miracle we're all waiting for today

 

If every leaf on every tree could tell

a story that would be a miracle

If every child on every street had clothes to wear

and food to eat

That's a miracle

If all God's people could be free to live

in perfect harmony

It's a miracle

 

We're having a miracle on earth

Mother nature does it all for us

Open hearts and surgery

Sunday mornings with a cup of tea

Super powers always fighting

But Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling

It's a miracle it's a miracle it's a miracle

 

(wonders of this world go on)

It's a miracle it's a miracle it's a miracle

It's a miracle

 

The one thing (the one thing)

we're all waiting for (we're all waiting for)

Is peace on earth (peace on earth)

and an end to war (an end to war)

It's a miracle we need - the miracle

The miracle peace on earth and end to war today

 

That time will come one day you'll see

when we can all be friends...

 

 

WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER

(Queen)

 

There's no time for us

There's no place for us

What is this thing that builds our dreams

yet slips away from us

 

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever... ?

 

There's no chance for us

It's all decided for us

This world has only one

sweet moment set aside for us

 

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever?

 

Who dares to love forever?

When love must die

 

But touch my tears with your lips

Touch my world with your fingertips

And we can have forever

And we can love forever

Forever is our today

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever?

Forever is our today

 

Who waits forever anyway?
