Kaiser Chiefs (e Paul Daniels)- RUBY

Canzone e libro NON sono correlati. Non conosco il signor Paul Daniels, e dubito i Kaiser Chiefs si siano ispirati alla sua opera. Però l'omonimia dei titoli, mi ha suggerito questo post.

Let it never be said
The romance is dead
'Cause there's so little else
Occupying my head
There is nothing I need
Except the function to breathe
But I'm not really fussed
Doesn't matter to me

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaa]
And do you, do you, do you, do you? [AhaAhaAaa]
Know what you're doing doing to me? [AhaAhaAaa]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaa]

Due to lack of interest
Tomorrow is cancelled
Let the clocks be reset
And the pendulums held
'Cause there's nothing at all
Except the space in between
Finding out what you're called
And repeating your name

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaa]
And do you, do you, do you, do you? [AhaAhaAaa]
Know what you're doing doing to me? [AhaAhaAaa]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaaAh]

Could it be, could it be
That you're joking with me
And you don't really see
You with me?
Could it be, could it be
That you're joking with me
And you don't really see
You with me?

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaa]
And do you, do you, do you, do you? [AhaAhaAaa]
Know what you're doing doing to me? [AhaAhaAaa]
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby! [AhaAhaAaa]
And do you, do you, do you, do you? [AhaAhaAaa.]
[Da da daa, da da daa.]
Know what you're doing doing to me? [AhaAhaAaaAhAa.]
[Da da daa.]

Kaiser Chiefs - Retirement

"É tanto che non ascolto i Kaiser Chiefs..." e mi faccio un ciddì da mettere in macchina... poi digito così a caso il nome della band su google e scopro che non solo è uscito un album nuovo quest'anno, ma che mi ero pure perso quello del 2011...
Amazon, e via! presi entrambi, il secondo dei quali a 5.50€: 2,50 il disco, 3.00 di spese... la fregatura mi sa che è già in viaggio via posta...

Nel frattempo, per far capire come mi sento in questo periodo:

There are many things that I would be proud of

If I'd only invented them such as the wheel

The washing machine and the tumble dryer

On these inventions surely I could retire

I want to retire

No longer required

I want to get by without the man on my back

A tear in my eye

With a heart full of pride

I must go out on a high

And tell nobody why

There are many things that I know I could do

If I'd only have wanted to, such as create

The perfect soulmate everyone would admire

On this creation surely I could retire

I want to retire

No longer required

I want to get by without the man on my back

A tear in my eye

With a heart full of pride

I must go out on a high

And not to answer to why

I want to retire

Inform the suppliers

I'll leave the party in style

And not to be carried out

Without a cloud in the sky

I Got my fingers in pies

A Golden watch on my side

Will measure my free time

Now my place in History is surely assured

I will be remembered here forever more

Brand new product in place and a potential buyer

Up on this next transaction surely I could retire

I want to retire

No longer required

I want to get by without the man on my back

A tear in my eye

With a heart full of pride

I must go out on a high

And not to answer to why

I want to retire

Inform the suppliers

I'll leave the party in style

And not to be carried out

Without a cloud in the sky

I Got my fingers in pies

A Golden watch on my side

Will measure my free time

Kaiser Chiefs - Angry Mob

I can prove anything
I'll make you admit again and again
I can prove anything
The way that it's read again and again

And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Its only cos you follow what the others do
Its no excuse to say your easily lead

You can choose anything
You choose to lose again and again
You could do anything
Why should you do anything again

And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Winding yourself up until your turning blue
Repeating everything that you've read

And here we go with the letter
Well can you fix it for me
Cos we need entertainment
To keep us all off the streets
So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed

You can try anything
And no-one would know apart from you and me
You can stop anything
It's starts with just one and turns to two then three

Its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Raise a glass or two
You raise a fist or two
Get a shopping basket wrapped round your head

So here we go with the letter
Oh can you fix it for me
24 hour drinking
To keep us all off the streets

So tonight you'll sleep softly in your bed

We are the angry mob
We read the papers everyday day
We like who like
We hate who we hate
But we're also easily swayed
