All I wanna do - Sheryl Crow

No comments. En fiesta debería estar. Pero no será hoy. No será esta semana.
Y las ganas se acumulan.
Hit it!
This ain't no disco
It ain't no country club either
This is LA!

"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,"
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It's apropos
Of nothing
He says his name's William but I'm sure,
He's Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy
And he's plain ugly to me
And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole
life
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing their cars
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing
As best they can in skirts in suits

They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks
Back to the phone company, the record store too
Well, they're nothing like Billy and me, cause

[Chorus]
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard

I like a good beer buzz early in the morning
And Billy likes to peel the labels
From his bottles of Bud
He shreds them on the bar
Then he lights every match in an oversized pack
Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers
before blowing and cursing them out
And he's watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on
the floor

And a happy couple enters the bar
Dangerously close to one another
The bartender looks up from his want ads

Chorus

Otherwise the bar is ours,
The day and the night and the car wash too
The matches and the Buds and the clean and dirty
cars
The sun and the moon but

Strong enough - Sheryl Crow


No hay palabras hoy.
Espero que la ola pase pronto... no pudo ser mejor-peor la elección de hoy.
Que frío tengo...
God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I’d be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Nothing’s true and nothing’s right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can’t change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I’ll believe
Lie to me
But please don’t leave

I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It’s try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?

When I’ve shown you that I just don’t care
When I’m throwing punches in the air
When I’m broken down and I can’t stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I’ll believe
Lie to me
But please don’t leave

If it makes you happy - Sheryl Crow

No quiero volver al pasado, me aburren las discusiones sobre lo que hice hace 5 años, en general, las cosas que hice no me enorgullecen, estoy lleno de cosas por corrregir.
Además, las falsas alabanzas me confunden, me halagan un rato y luego pasan a avergonzarme profundamente, pues se basan en la generosidad del tiempo y en falsas apreciaciones.
Pero son buenos amigos y estaban allí, y con eso para mi, había casa llena, lo demás, ni cuenta. Parte de la vida es evolucionar y cambiar para bien (aunque solo sea de intenciones), dejarse llevar por el instinto. Pero a veces se me hace que he fallado más de lo que he acertado.
Y la vieja herida se abre de nuevo.

I've been long, a long way from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos,
And drank til I was thirsty again
We went searching through thrift store jungles
Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo
And Benny Goodman's corset and pen

Well, o.k. I made this up
I promised you I'd never give up

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

You get down, real low down
You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train
Well who hasn't been there before?
I come round, around the hard way
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread
And serve you french toast again

Well, o.k. I still get stoned
I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

We've been far, far away from here
Put on a poncho, played for mosquitos
And everywhere in between
Well, o.k. we get along
So what if right now everything's wrong?

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

My favorite mistake - Sheryl Crow

¿Esa rubia linda toca rock? No se puede creer, y aunque es un tanto AOR, es muy sexy y le da a este negocio de raídos y drogadictos y toque de glamour.
Cuando las relaciones se terminan, surgen ideas como "buscarse un amante", "comer a la carta", "nada serio, solo sexo" y yo creo, que en el fondo es solamente miedo de volver a golpearse en la cabeza, nada más. Porque casi todos queremos amor completo y recibir mucho.
Aunque también nos gusta lo prohibido, no permanentemente, pero quien no tiene un pecadillo en el prontuario del corazón... a lo mejor solo queremos placer, sin amor, solo placer.
¿Qué mas consideraciones habría que hacer? Solo no te enamores, no te lo tomes en serio, no llames en un mal momento, no te ofendas.. muchos "no", pocos "si".
Pero será un buen recuerdo, ni duda cabe, más si es rubia, más si es ardiente. Solo siga las reglas... (y mueva la patita por supuesto)

I woke up and called this morning,
the tone of your voice was a warning
that you don't care for me anymore.

I made up the bed we sleep in.
I looked at the clock when you creep in.
It's 6 AM and I'm alone.

Did you know when you go it's the perfect ending,
to the bad day I was just beginning.
When you go, all I know is you're my favorite mistake.
