    letra de Berlin

    In Berlin, by the wall

    you were five foot ten inches tall

    It was very nice

    candlelight and Dubonnet on ice



    We were in a small cafe

    you could hear the guitars play

    It was very nice

    it was paradise



    You're right and I'm wrong

    hey babe, I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone

    One sweet day



    Oh, you're right and I'm wrong

    you know I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone

    One sweet day

    One sweet day



    In a small, small cafe

    we could hear the guitars play

    It was very nice

    candlelight and Dubonnet on ice



    Don't forget, hire a vet

    he hasn't had that much fun yet

    It was very nice

    hey honey, it was paradise



    You're right and I'm wrong

    oh babe, I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone

    One sweet day

    You're right, oh, and I'm wrong

    you know I'm gonna miss you now that you're gone

    One sweet day

    One sweet day



    One sweet day, one sweet day

    oh, one sweet day

    One sweet day, baby-baby, one sweet day

    one sweet day, one sweet day

  8. Caroline Says IIVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Caroline Says II

    Caroline says

    as she gets up off the floor

    Why is it that you beat me

    it isn't any fun



    Caroline says

    as she makes up her eyes

    You ought to learn more about yourself

    think more than just I



    But she's not afraid to die

    all her friends call her "Alaska"

    When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her



    What is in her mind

    what is in her mind



    Caroline says

    as she gets up from the floor

    You can hit me all you want to

    but I don't love you anymore



    Caroline says

    while biting her lip

    Life is meant to be more than this

    and this is a bum trip



    But she's not afraid to die

    all her friends call her "Alaska"

    When she takes speed, they laugh and ask her



    What is in her mind

    what is in her mind



    She put her fist through the window pane

    It was such a funny feeling



    It's so cold in Alaska

    it's so cold in Alaska

    It's so cold in Alaska

  9. The KidsVer letra

    [X]

    letra de The Kids

    They're taking her children away

    Because they said she was not a good mother

    They're taking her children away

    Because she was making it with sisters and brothers

    And everyone else, all of the others

    Like cheap officers who would stand there and flirt in front of me



    They're taking her children away

    Because they said she was not a good mother

    They're taking her children away

    Because of the things that they heard she had done

    The black Air Force sergeant was not the first one

    And all of the drugs she took, every one, every one



    And I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here

    But my heart is overflowin' anyway

    I'm just a tired man, no words to say

    But since she lost her daughter

    It's her eyes that fill with water

    And I am much happier this way



    They're taking her children away

    Because they said she was not a good mother

    They're taking her children away

    Because number on was the girl friend from Paris

    The things that they did - ah - they didn't have to ask us

    And then the Welshman from India, who came here to stay



    They're taking her children away

    Because they said she was not a good mother

    They're taking her children away

    Because of the things she did in the streets

    In the alleys and bars, no she couldn't be beat

    That miserable rotten slut couldn't turn anyone away



    I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here

    But my heart is overflowin' anyway

    I'm just a tired man, no words to say

    But since she lost her daughter

    It's her eyes that fill with water

    And I am much happier this way

    [X]

    letra de Walk On The Wild Side

    Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.

    Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.

    Plucked her eyebrows on the way

    Shaved her legs and then he was a she

    She says, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    Said, "Hey, honey,

    Take a walk on the wild side."



    Candy came from out on the Island

    In the back room she was everybody's darling

    But she never lost her head

    Even when she was giving head

    She says, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    Said, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    And the colored girls go

    "Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."



    Little Joe never once gave it away

    Everybody had to pay and pay

    A hustle here and a hustle there

    New York City's the place

    Where they said, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    I said, "Hey, Joe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."



    Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets

    Looking for soul food and a place to eat

    Went to the Apollo

    You should've seen them go, go, go

    They said, "Hey, sugar,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    I said, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    All right, huh



    Jackie is just speeding away

    Thought she was James Dean for a day

    Then I guess she had to crash

    Valium would have helped that bash

    Said, "Hey, babe,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    I said, "Hey, honey,

    Take a walk on the wild side."

    And the colored girls say,

    "Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."

  11. Kill Your SonsVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Kill Your Sons

    All your two-bit psychiatrists

    are giving you electroshock

    They said, they'd let you live at home with mom and dad

    instead of mental hospitals

    But every time you tried to read a book

    you couldn't get to page 17

    'Cause you forgot where you were

    so you couldn't even read



    Don't you know they're gonna kill your sons

    don't you know gonna kill, kill your sons

    They're gonna kill, kill your sons

    until they run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run away



    Mom informed me on the phone

    she didn't know what to do about dad

    Took an axe and broke the table

    aren't you glad you're married

    And sister, she got married on the island

    and her husband takes the train

    He's big and he's fat

    and he doesn't even have a brain



    They're gonna kill your sons

    don't you know they're gonna kill, kill your sons

    Don't you know they're gonna kill, kill your sons

    until they run away



    Creedmore treated me very good

    but Paine Whitney was even better

    And when I flipped out on PHC

    I was so sad, I didn't even get a letter

    All of the drugs, that we took

    it really was lots of fun

    But when they shoot you up with thorizene on crystal smoke

    you choke like a son of a gun



    Don't you know they're gonna kill your sons

    don't you know they're gonna kill, kill your sons

    Don't you know they're gonna kill, kill your sons

    until they run, run, run, run, run, run, run away

  12. ViciousVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Vicious

    Vicious, you hit me with a flower

    You do it every hour

    Oh, baby you're so vicious

    Vicious, you want me to hit you with a stick

    But all I've got is a guitar pick

    Oh baby, you're so vicious



    When I watch you come, baby, I just want to run far away

    You're not the kind of person around I want to stay

    When I see you walking down the street

    I step on your hands and I mangle your feet

    You're not the kind of person that I want to meet

    Baby, oh you're so vicious, you're so vicious



    Vicious, you hit me with a flower

    You do it every hour

    Oh, baby you're so vicious

    Vicious, hey why don't you swallow razor blades

    You must think that I'm some kind of gay blade

    But baby, you're so vicious



    When I see you coming I just have to run

    You're not good and you certainly aren't very much fun

    When I see you walking down the street

    I step on your hand and I mangle your feet

    You're not the kind of person that I'd even want to meet

    'Cause you're so vicious, baby, you're so vicious

    Vicious, vicious...

  13. The Blue MaskVer letra

    [X]

    letra de The Blue Mask

    They tied his arms behind his back

    to teach him how to swim

    They put blood in his coffee

    and milk in his gin

    They stood over the soldier

    in the midst of the squalor

    There was war in his body

    and it caused his brain to holler



    Make the sacrifice

    mutilate my face

    If you need someone to kill

    I'm a man without a will

    Wash the razor in the rain

    let me luxuriate in pain

    Please don't set me free

    death means a lot to me



    The pain was lean and it made him scream

    he knew he was alive

    He put a pin through the nipples on his chest

    he thought he was a saint

    I've made love to my mother, killed my father and brother

    what am I to do

    When a sin goes too far, it's like a runaway car

    it cannot be controlled



    Spit upon his face and scream

    there's no Oedipus today

    This is no play you're thinking you are in

    what will you say

    Take the blue mask down from my face

    and look me in the eye

    I get a thrill from punishment

    I've always been that way



    I loathe and despise repentance

    you are permanently stained

    Your weakness buys indifference

    and indiscretion in the streets

    Dirty's what you are and clean is what you're not

    you deserve to be soundly beat



    Make the sacrifice

    take it all the way

    There's no "won't" high enough

    to stop this desperate day

    Don't take death away

    cut the finger at the joint

    Cut the stallion at his mount

    and stuff it in his mouth

  16. EcstasyVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Ecstasy

    They call you ecstasy

    nothing ever sticks to you

    Not velcro, not scotch tape

    not my arms dipped in glue



    Not if I wrap myself in nylon

    a piece of duct tape down my back

    Love pierced the arrow with the twelve

    and I can't get you back



    Ah, ecstasy

    ecstasy

    Ah, ecstasy



    Across the streets an old Ford, they took off its wheels

    the engine is gone

    In its seat sits a box

    with a note that says, Goodbye Charlie, thanks a lot



    I see a child through a window with a bib

    and I think of us and what we almost did

    The Hudson rocketing with light

    the ships pass the Statue of Liberty at night



    They call it ecstasy, ah

    ecstasy

    Ecstasy, ah

    ecstasy



    Some men call me St. Ivory

    some call me St. Maurice

    I'm smooth as alabaster

    with white veins runnin' through my cheeks



    A big stud through my eyebrow

    a scar on my arm that says, Domain

    I put it over the tattoo

    that contained your name



    They called you ecstasy, ecstasy

    ecstasy

    They call you ecstasy, ecstasy

    ecstasy



    The moon passing through a cloud

    a body facing up is floating towards a crowd

    And I think of a time and what I couldn't do

    I couldn't hold you close, I couldn't, I couldn't become you



    They call you ecstasy, I can't hold you down

    I can't hold you up

    I feel like that car that I saw today, no radio

    no engine, no hood



    I'm going to the cafe, I hope they've got music

    and I hope that they can play

    But if we have to part

    I'll have a new scar right over my heart

    I'll call it ecstasy



    Oh, ecstasy, ecstasy

    ecstasy

    Ecstasy, ecstasy

    ecstasy

    Hey now, bitch, now, baby

    you better make your face get out of here, quick

    Maybe your, was getting, ah, too rich

    It ain't like we ain't never seen this thing before

    And if it turns you then around

    then you better hit the door



    But I know, oh, it's just a temporary thing

    Oh yeah, it's just a temporary thing



    You've read too many books, you've seen too many plays

    And it's things like this, that turn you away

    Hey, now, now, look, huh, look, hey look, hey look

    you better think about it twice

    I know that your good breeding makes it seem not so nice



    It's just a temporary thing

    Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha, it's just a temporary thing



    Where's the number, where's the dime and where's the phone

    I feel like a stranger, I guess you wanna go back home

    Your mother, your father, your brother

    I guess they wouldn't agree with me

    But I don't give two shits, they're no better than me



    Ah-ha, it's just a temporary thing

    Oh yeah, been there before just a temporary thing

    It's just a temporary thing

    Ah bitch, get off my kids, temporary thing

    Get out, it's just a temporary thing

    Yeah now, home (it's just a temporary thing)

    Temporary thing, huh, ah-ha (it's just a temporary thing)

    letra de Shooting Star

    All the people had their share of the glory

    looking out after you

    It's just a story about winners and glory

    and you know that it's true



    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star

    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star



    Some men may glory from a different condition

    of another car

    And later persuasion would permit the arranging

    of a ...

    And to cause more confusion, and to make this illusion

    would have gone too far

    And it's my ambition, of a jacket ignition

    in a Cadillac metal car



    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star

    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star

    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star

    Ah ha, oh yeah, you're just a shooting star



    You're just a shooting star

  20. Legendary HeartsVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Legendary Hearts

    Legendary hearts

    tearing up apart

    with stories of their love

    their great transcendent loves

    While we stand here and fight

    and lose another night

    of legendary love



    Legendary loves

    haunt me in my sleep

    promises to keep

    I never should have made

    I can't live up to this

    I'm good for just a kiss

    not legendary love



    Romeo, oh, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo

    he's in a car or at a bar

    or churning his blood with an impure drug

    He's in the past and seemingly lost forever



    He worked hard at being good

    but his basic soul was stained not pure

    and when he took his bow

    no audience was clapping



    Legendary hearts

    tear us all apart

    make our emotions bleed

    crying out in need

    No legendary love

    is coming from above

    it's in this room right now



    And you've got to fight

    to make what's right

    you've got to fight

    to make what's right

    You've got to fight

    to make what's right

    you've got to fight to keep your legendary love

    [X]

    letra de Heroin

    I don't know just where I'm going

    But I'm goin' to try for the kingdom if I can

    'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man

    When I put a spike into my vein

    Then I tell you things aren't quite the same



    When I'm rushing on my run

    And I feel just like Jesus' son

    And I guess I just don't know

    And I guess that I just don't know



    I have made very big decision

    I'm goin' to try to nullify my life

    'Cause when the blood begins to flow

    When it shoots up the dropper's neck

    When I'm closing in on death



    You can't help me not you guys

    All you sweet girls with all your sweet talk

    You can all go take a walk

    And I guess I just don't know

    And I guess I just don't know



    I wish that I was born a thousand years ago

    I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas

    On a great big clipper ship

    Going from this land here to that

    I put on a sailor's suit and cap



    Away from the big city

    Where a man cannot be free

    Of all the evils in this town

    And of himself and those around

    Oh, and I guess I just don't know

    Oh, and I guess I just don't know



    Heroin, be the death of me

    Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life

    Because a mainer to my vein

    Leads to a center in my head

    And then I'm better off than dead



    When the smack begins to flow

    Then I really don't care anymore

    About all the Jim-Jims in this town

    And everybody putting everybody else down

    And all of the politicians makin' crazy sounds

    All the dead bodies piled up in mounds, yeah



    Wow, that heroin is in my blood

    And the blood is in my head

    Yeah, thank God that I'm good as dead

    Ooohhh, thank your God that I'm not aware

    And thank God that I just don't care

    And I guess I just don't know

    And I guess I just don't know

    [X]

    letra de Coney Island Baby

    You know, man, when I was a young man in high school

    You believe in or not, that I wanted to play football for the coach

    All those older guys, they said he was mean and cruel

    But you know, I wanted to play football, for the coach

    They said I was to little too light weight to play line-back

    So I say I'm playing right-in

    Wanted to play football for the coach

    Cause, you know some day, man, you gotta stand up straight

    Unless you're gonna fall

    Then you're gonna die

    And the straightest dude I ever knew

    Was standing right for me, all the time

    So I had to play football for the coach

    And I wanted to play football for the coach

    When you're all alone and lonely in your midnight hour

    And you find that your soul, it has been up for sale



    And you getting to think about, all the things you done

    And you getting to hate just about everything



    But remember the princess who lived on the hill

    Who loved you even though she knew you was wrong

    And right now she just might come shining through

    and the glory of love, glory of love

    Glory of love, just might come through



    And all your two-bit friends have gone and ripped you off

    They're talking behind your back saying, man

    you are never going to be a human being

    And you start thinking again

    About all those things that you've done

    And who it was and who it was

    And all the different things you made every different scene



    Ah, but remember that the city is a funny place

    Something like a circus or a sewer

    And just remember, different people have peculiar tastes

    And the Glory of love, the glory of love

    The glory of love, might see you through

    Yeah, but now, now

    Glory of love, the glory of love

    The glory of love, might see you through

    Glory of love, ah, huh, huh, the glory of love

    Glory of love, glory of love

    Glory of love, now, glory of love, now

    Glory of love, now, now, now, glory of love

    Glory of love, give it to me now, glory of love see you through

    Oh, my Coney Island baby, now

    (I'm a Coney Island baby, now)

    I'd like to send this one out for Lou and Rachel

    And the Lord appeared and he has one made of two

    Coney Island baby

    Man, I swear, I'd give the whole thing up for you

    letra de The Last Shot

    Last shot sure killed me

    pour another drink

    Let's drink to the last shot

    and the blood on the dishes in the sink

    Blood inside the coffee cup

    blood on the table top



    But when you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot

    When you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot



    I shot blood at the fly on the wall

    my heart almost stopped hardly there at all

    I broke the mirror with my fall, with my -

    - Fall-fall-fall

    fall-fall-fall



    Gimme a double, give yourself one two

    gimme a short beer, one for you too

    And a toast to everything that doesn't move

    that doesn't move



    But when you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot

    When you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot



    Whiskey, bourbon, vodka and scotch

    I don't care what it is you've got

    I just want to know that it's my last shot

    My last shot



    I remember when I quit pretty good

    see this here, this is where I chipped my tooth

    Shot of vein in my neck and I coughed up a Quaalude

    On my last shot

    my last shot



    Here's a toast to all that's good

    and here's a toast to hate

    And here's a toast to toasting and I'm not boasting

    When I say I'm getting straight

    when I say I'm getting straight



    But when you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot

    When you quit, you quit, but you always wish

    that you knew it was your last shot

    And the actresses relate

    to the actor who comes home late

    after the plays have gone down

    and the crowds have scattered around

    Though the city lights and the streets

    no ticket could be beat

    for the beautiful show of shows

    ah, Broadway only knows

    The great white Milky Way

    it had something to say

    when he fell down on his knees

    after soaring through the air

    With nothing to hold him there

    it was really not so cute

    to play without a parachute

    as he stood upon the ledge

    Looking out, he thought he saw a brook



    And he hollered, Look, there are the bells

    and he sang out, Here come the bells

    Here come the bells, here come the bells

    here come the bells



    Here come the bells

    here come the bells

    Here come the bells

    here come the bells

    letra de Perfect Day

    Just a perfect day

    Drink sangria in the park

    And then later, when it gets dark

    We go home



    Just a perfect day

    Feed animals in the zoo

    Then later a movie, too

    And then home



    Oh, it's such a perfect day

    I'm glad I spent it with you

    Oh, such a perfect day

    You just keep me hanging on

    You just keep me hanging on



    Just a perfect day

    Problems all left alone

    Weekenders on our own

    It's such fun



    Just a perfect day

    You made me forget myself

    I thought I was someone else

    Someone good



    Oh, it's such a perfect day

    I'm glad I spent it with you

    Oh, such a perfect day

    You just keep me hanging on

    You just keep me hanging on



    You're going to reap just what you sow

    You're going to reap just what you sow

    You're going to reap just what you sow

    You're going to reap just what you sow

    letra de NYC Man

    It can only lead to trouble if you break my heart

    if you accidentally crush it on the ides of March

    I'd prefer you were straight forward

    you don't have to go through all of that

    I'm a New York city man, baby, and say "go" and that is that



    New York city man, you just say "go" and that is that

    I'm a New York city man, you just say "go" and that is that



    It's far too complicated to make up a lie

    that you'd have to remember and really why

    I wouldn't want to be around you

    if you didn't want to have me around

    I'm a M-A-N-N man, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone



    M-A-N-N man, you blink your eyes, honey, I love you, I'll be gone

    New York city man, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone



    Brutus made a pretty speech but Caesar was betrayed

    Lady Macbeth went crazy but Macbeth ended slain

    Ophelia and Desdamona dead leaving Hamlet in a play

    but I'm no Lear with blinded eyes, say "go" and I am gone



    The stars have shut their eyes up tight

    the earth has changed it's course

    a Kingdom sits on a black knight's back

    as he tries to mount a white jeweled horse

    While a clock full of butterflies on the hour

    releases a thousand moths

    You say "leave" and I'll be gone

    without any remorse

    No letters faxes phones or tears

    there's a difference between bad and worse



    I'm a New York city man, blink your eyes and I'll be gone

    New York city - man, M-A-N, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone



    New York city, I love you, New York city man

    New York city, how I love you, blink your eyes and I'll be gone

    just a little grain of sand

    New York city, ooohhh, how I love you

    New York city, baby, blink your eyes and I'll be gone

    Oh, how I love you

    letra de Dirty Blvd.

    Pedro lives out of the Wilshire Hotel

    He looks out a window without glass

    And the walls are made of cardboard, newspapers on his feet

    And his father beats him 'cause he's too tired to beg



    He's got 9 brothers and sisters

    They're brought up on their knees

    It's hard to run when a coat hanger beats you on the thighs

    Pedro dreams of being older and killing the old man

    But that's a slim chance

    He's going to the boulevard



    He's gonna end up on the dirty boulevard

    He's going out to the dirty boulevard

    He's going down to the dirty boulevard



    This room cost $2,000 a month

    You can believe it, man, it's true

    Somewhere there's a landlord's laughing till he wets his pants

    No one dreams of being a doctor or a lawyer or anything

    They dream of dealing on the dirty boulevard



    Give me your hungry, your tired, your poor I'll piss on 'em

    That's what the Statue of Bigotry says

    Your poor huddled masses

    Let's club 'em to death

    And get it over with and just dump 'em on the boulevard



    Get 'em out on the dirty boulevard

    Goin' out to the dirty boulevard

    They're going down on the dirty boulevard

    Goin' out



    Outside it's a bright night

    There's an opera at Lincoln Center

    Movie stars arrive by limousine

    The klieg lights shoot up over the skyline of Manhattan

    But the lights are out on the mean streets



    A small kid stands by the Lincoln Tunnel

    He's selling plastic roses for a buck

    The traffic's backed up to 39th Street

    The TV whores are calling the cops out for a suck



    And back at the Wilshire, Pedro sits there dreaming

    He's found a book on Magic in a garbage can

    He looks at the pictures

    And stares up at the cracked ceiling

    "At the count of 3," he says,

    "I hope I can disappear."



    And fly, fly away from this dirty boulevard

    I want to fly from the dirty boulevard

    I want to fly from the dirty boulevard

    I want to fly-fly-fly-fly from the dirty boulevard



    I want to fly away

    I want to fly

    Fly, fly away

    I want to fly

    Fly, fly away

    Fly, fly away

    Fly, fly away

    Fly, fly away

    I want to fly
