Da mama cu briciu-n mine si ma-nvata sa ma sinucid bine

Si cum spunea poetul: pentru ca totul trebuia sa poarte un nume, i-au spus Da mama cu biciu-n mine si taie o data dracu funia aia, sa nu mai atirne atit de greu, ca rupe lustra si strica tencuiala.

Pink Floyd: The Post War Dream (The Final Cut, 1982)


The Post War Dream (Waters)

[Car sound, switching on of car radio]
"...announced plans to build a nuclear fallout shelter at Peterborough
in Cambridgeshire..."
[phzzt! of returning]
"...three high court judges have cleared the way..."
[phzzt!]
"...It was announced today, that the replacement for the Atlantic
Conveyor the container ship lost in the Falklands conflict would be
built in Japan, a spokesman for..."
[phzzt!]
"...moving in. They say the third world countries, like Bolivia, which
produce the drug are suffering from rising violence...[fades]"

Tell me true, tell me why, was Jesus crucified
Is it for this that Daddy died?
Was it for you? Was it me?
Did I watch too much T.V.?
Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?
If it wasn't for the nips
Being so good at building ships
The yards would still be open on the clyde.
And it can't be much fun for them
Beneath the rising sun
With all their kids committing suicide.
What have we done, Maggie what have we done?
What have we done to England?
Should we shout, should we scream
"What happened to the post war dream?"
Oh Maggie, Maggie what have we done?

'A place to stay
"Oi! A real one ..."
Enough to eat
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street
Where you can speak out loud
About your doubts and fears
And what's more no-one ever disappears
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.
You can relax on both sides of the tracks
And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control
And everyone has recourse to the law
And no-one kills the children anymore.
And no one kills the children anymore.'

si cind ma gindesc ca 'final cut' e facut din leftovers de la 'the wall', mai ca-mi vine sa-i suicid pe cei ce strimba din nas la pink floyd. ;P

(bine ca n-ai pus-o pe aia cu 'two suns in the sunset'. ar fi crezut lumea ca a explodat reactorul ala bucuclas de la fukushima; ptiu, drace)

@ Dragos: :)

@ Clause: yup. Ma crezi ca la asta m-am gindit si eu, chestia cu "Two Suns in the Sunset"? Brrr.

Anyway, The Final Cut este unul din albumele mele preferate The Wall.
