i Franz Ferdinand e la teoria della materia...



da "Tonight", il più bell'album del 2009, analizziamo insieme il testo di due canzoni dei Franz Ferdinand:

No You Girls

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won’t meet me
Meet me where your mind won’t kiss me

Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh, you know you know you know that yes I love
I mean I’d love to get to know you

Do you never wonder?
No, no no no

You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won’t meet me
Meet me where your eye won’t lick me
Lick your mind and mine so briefly
Oh you know, you know you’re so sweetly
Oh you know, you know that I know that I love you
I mean I, I mean I need to love

Do you never wonder?
No, no no no

You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
You girls never know
Oh no, you girls’ll never know
No you girls never know
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy feel
How you make a boy

Sometimes I say stupid things
That I think
Well, I mean I
Sometimes I think the stupidest things
Because I never wonder
Oh how the girl feels
Oh how the girl feels

No you boys never care
Oh no you boys’ll never care
No you boys never care
How the girl feels
No you boys never care
You dirty boys’ll never care
No you boys never care
How the girl feels

Oh how the girl feels
Oh how the girl feels

Katherine Kiss Me

Katherine kiss me
Slippy little lips will split me
Split me where your eye won't hit me
Yes, I love you
I mean, I- I'd love to get to know you

Sometimes I say the stupid things
I think
I mean, I- sometimes think the stupidest things

Do you ever wonder
How the boy feels

Katherine kiss me
Flick your cigarette then kiss me
Flick your eyes at mine so briefly
Your leather jacket lies in sticky pools of cider blackberry

You glance a ricochet from every alpha male behind me
Eyes
Like marbles on a washing machine

I wonder
How the boy feels

Katherine kiss me
In the alleyway by Jakey's
Jack in the sodium light
Yes, I love you
I mean, I- I mean, I- need to love

And though your opened eyes stare
Bored upon the overflowing pipes above me
Tonight
I don't mind
Because I never wonder
How the girl feels



autoplagio? autocitazionismo? rindondanza? gli pareva una bella idea e l'hanno riproposta? oppure dovevano chiudere l'album e non sapevano cosa fare? oppure volevano vedere se stavamo attenti?

Ad ogni modo: nulla si crea, nulla si distrugge!
