Sleater-Kinney: Was It A Lie crack de panda gratis
(Quelle: Nicole, All Hands On The Bad One)
the yard was cold and dark
the tracks were clearly marked
but she was tired
she didn't see
she was just out alone
she wasn't going home
she was going somewhere
far away the train was moving through
as we know the world has to do
everyone will say it was her fault
somewhere a camera is placed
inside this awful place
the accident is about to start
was it a lie?
did it fill your head
did it entertain?
will you feel alive
at the end of it?
when the collision came
she died right away
her body flung almost sixty feet
and as she split in two
was she coming straight for you
and do you have a camera for a face?
was she your tv show
was she your video
a woman's pain never privat always seen
i want to close my eyes
i want to cut the wires
i want a day not made for you to see
when you play it back to me,
it feels more like a parody
and that's all i will ever be,
it's all i will ever be
i really want to be the prettiest wreck you've seen
(you broadcast it in 50 states
looped her death on the internet
and a woman's live got cheaper that day
a woman's live got cheaper that day
you're no rock n' roll fun
you're no rock n'roll fun
like a party that's over
before it begun
you're no walk in the park
more like a shot in the dark
with clues left for no one
and all the boys in the band
know how to get down
fill our christmas socks
with whiskey drinks
and chocolate bars
and when the evening ends
we won't be thinking of you then
although the best man
won't hang out with the girl band!
you're no rock n'roll fun
like a piece of art
that no one can touch
your head is always up in the clouds
writing your songs
won't you ever come down?
and all the boys in the band
know how to get down
fill our christmas socks
with whiskey drinks
and chocolate bars
and when the evening ends
we won't be thinking of you then
even if your song
is playing on the juke box
you wanna party with the lights
on come on i like the dark
you always wanna hear the same old song
come on play another song
you're no rock n' roll fun (repeat)
