…31-05-1985 GLORY DAYS
di Springsteen
BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speedball by you
Make you look like a fool boy
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar
I was walking in, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
But all he kept talking about was
Glory days well they’ll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl’s eye
Glory days, glory days
Well there’s a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy’s heads
Sometimes on a Friday I’ll stop by
And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
Her and her husband Bobby well they split up
I guess it’s two years gone by now
We just sit around talking about the old times,
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking about
Glory days well they’ll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl’s eye
Glory days, glory days…

…30-05-2005 BEST OF YOU
di Grohl, Howkins, Mendel, Shiflett
FOO FIGHTERS
I’ve got another confession to make
I’m your fool
Everyone’s got their chains to break
Holdin’ you
Were you born to resist, or be abused?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Or are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn’t have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I’ll break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can’t choose
I swear I’ll never give in
I refuse
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best
The best, the best, the best of you?…

29-05-1996 VIVO MORTO O X
di Ligabue
LIGABUE
Nato da un sospiro o da un temporale,
l’ostetrica ti batte e non ti chiede come va.
Beh benvenuto qui fra luce e confusione
nessuno che ti ha chiesto se volevi,
se volevi uscir di là, là.
T’han detto cos’è bene e t’han spiegato il male.
“Si sappia regolare prima o poi c’è l’aldilà!”
Guardare e non toccare
guardare ed ingoiare
e sei un po” nervoso ed un motivo ci sarà.
Vivo morto o X
vivo morto o X
vivo morto, vivo morto, vivo morto o X.
Fa una croce qui, firmati così
vivo morto, vivo morto, vivo morto o X.
E te lo porti dentro
quel vecchio professore
che ti ha rubato tempo con la sua mediocrità.
E puntano al tuo tempo
e a alcuni sissignore
e perfino un giuramento e un anno di tua proprietà.
Vivo morto o X
vivo morto o X
vivo morto, vivo morto, vivo morto o X.…

28-05-1990 DON’T GO AWAY MAD
di Sixx, Mars
MOTLEY CRUE
We could sail away
Or catch a freight train
Or a rocket ship into outer space
Nothin’ left to do
Too many things were said
To ever make it feel
Lik yesterday did
Seasons must change
Separate paths, separate ways
If we blame it on anything
Let’s blame it on the rain
I knew it all along
I’d have to write this song
Too young to fall in love
Guess we knew it all along
That’s alright, that’s okay
We were walkin’through some youth
Smilin’ through pain
That’s alright, that’s okay
Let’s turn the page
My friends called today
Down from L.A.
They were shooting pool all night
Sleeping half the day
They said I could crash
If I could find my own way
I told them you were leaving
On a bus to go away…
