Αργυρώνημα (η μουσική του χρήματος)

[daeman]

Τις προάλλες* διάβαζα αυτό εδώ (http://www.bookpress.gr/multipress/eikastika-mousiki/top-40-being-broke) το δημοσίευμα της Σώτης Τριανταφύλλου στην Bookpress:



Top 40 “Being Broke”
Στην παρακάτω λίστα μιμούμαι κάπως το countdown Τοp 40 του Casey Kasem που άκουγα, όταν ήμουν μικρή, κάθε Κυριακή απόγευμα στον αμερικανικό ραδιοφωνικό σταθμό της Νέας Μάκρης.

Εδώ, τα κομμάτια αφορούν ή θυμίζουν τη σημερινή κατάσταση: την οικονομική κρίση, τη φτώχεια, τις κοινωνικές αναταραχές· μερικά απ’ αυτά είναι ελαφρώς λαϊκιστικά (απέφυγα τα πολύ λαϊκιστικά τύπου “This Land is Your Land” ή “Working Class Hero”), ενώ άλλα εμπεριέχουν κάποια ειρωνεία· ένα-δυο αφορούν κοινωνίες πολύ διαφορετικές από τη δική μας.

Πρόκειται για μια προσωπική επιλογή που συνδυάζει μια ποικιλία από μουσικά υποείδη. Μια άλλη μέρα, με διαφορετική διάθεση, το Τop 40 δεν θα περιείχε αυτά τα κομμάτια· ήδη, σκέφτομαι ποια θα περιείχε.


Συνεχίζει με την αντίστροφη μέτρηση μιας εξαιρετικής σαραντάδας με τα σχετικά κομμάτια που επέλεξε τη δεδομένη χρονική στιγμή.

Μου άρεσε πολύ η ιδέα κι επειδή στη Λεξιλογία έχουμε νήμα της κρίσης (http://lexilogia.gr/forum/showthread.php?5610-%CE%A4%CE%B1-%CF%84%CE%B7%CF%82-%CE%BA%CF%81%CE%AF%CF%83%CE%B7%CF%82-(%CF%8C-%CF%84%CE%B9-%CF%80%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%BD%CE%AC%CE%B5%CE%B9-%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%8C-%CF%84%CE%B7%CE%BD-%CE%BA%CF%81%CE%B7%CF%83%CE%AC%CF%81%CE%B1-%CE%BC%CE%B1%CF%82)) και νήμα του χρήματος (http://lexilogia.gr/forum/showthread.php?5332-%CE%A4%CE%BF-%CE%BD%CE%AE%CE%BC%CE%B1-%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%85-%CF%87%CF%81%CE%AE%CE%BC%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%BF%CF%82) και καθετί δυσάρεστο θέλει και κάτι ευχάριστο για να ισοσκελιστεί, από καιρό σκεφτόμουν να ξεκινήσω ένα μουσικό νήμα για την κρίση και το χρήμα. Να συγκεντρώσουμε μουσικά κομμάτια και κάθε λογής λεξιλογικά τριβίδια και τριβιδάκια (http://lexilogia.gr/forum/showthread.php?8352-%CF%84%CF%81%CE%B9%CE%B2%CE%B9%CE%B4%CE%AC%CE%BA%CE%B9) για όλα αυτά που ενώ παλιότερα ίσως είχαμε την πολυτέλεια, την απρονοησία ή το θράσος να αγνοούμε μακάριοι ή τουλάχιστον αυτό παριστάναμε, κουκουλώνοντας το κτήνος (http://lexilogia.gr/forum/showthread.php?4747-elephant-in-the-living-room-elephant-in-the-room-%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%AD%CF%86%CE%B1%CE%BD%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%82-%CF%83%CF%84%CE%BF-%CF%83%CE%B1%CE%BB%CF%8C%CE%BD%CE%B9-%CE%B5%CE%BB%CE%AD%CF%86%CE%B1%CE%BD%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%82-%CF%83%CF%84%CE%BF-%CE%B4%CF%89%CE%BC%CE%AC%CF%84%CE%B9%CE%BF&p=46846) στο σαλόνι μας, τώρα θέριεψαν, εισβάλλουν σε όλες τις πτυχές της ζωής μας και απειλούν να μας καταπλακώσουν.

Καθώς η μορφή του φόρουμ το επιτρέπει, αυτό το νήμα των αργυρίων ούτε περιορισμό στο πλήθος των κομματιών έχει ούτε πρέπει να οριστικοποιηθεί κάποια στιγμή και μπορεί κάλλιστα να μην περιλαμβάνει μόνο μουσική. Μπορούμε να γνέσουμε το νήμα στην αρχή με βάση τη δεδομένη σαραντάδα, αλλά είμαι βέβαιος πως όλοι ξέρουμε καναδυό κομμάτια που λόγω τίτλου, θέματος ή συγκεκριμένων στίχων θα ταίριαζαν εδώ.

Με αιφνιδίασε ευχάριστα η τρίτη παράγραφος αποπάνω, γιατί σε όλο το γυμνάσιο (http://lexilogia.gr/forum/showthread.php?7653-%CE%94%CE%B1%CE%B9-%CE%BC%CE%BF%CF%85%CF%83%CE%B9%CE%BA%CE%AD%CF%82-(daeman-s-tunes)&p=88822&viewfull=1#post88822), κάθε απόγευμα μετά το σχολείο, διαβάζοντας ή όχι, 4 με 5 είχα πάντα το τρανζιστοράκι στην ΕΡΑ για ν' ακούω ανελλιπώς τον κορυφαίο Γιάννη Πετρίδη κι αμέσως μετά το γύριζα στον AFRS (http://www.northernstar.no/afrs.htm) ν' ακούσω τον Casey Kasem, τον Wolfman Jack και τους άλλους ραδιοφωνατζήδες της αμερικανικής ΥΕΝΕΔ, και η αντίστροφη μέτρηση του Τοπ 40, διανθισμένη με τα σχόλιά τους, ήταν από τις αγαπημένες στιγμές της εβδομάδας κι ένας από τους τρόπους να ξεxνώ την ανία του κυριακάτικου απογεύματος. Πού να 'ξερα ότι θα έφτανε καιρός να νοσταλγήσω εκείνο το κυριακάτικο μπλουζ, γιατί, μπλουζ ξεμπλούζ, τότε τουλάχιστον την Κυριακή είχα σχόλη.

Αν και ο τίτλος του νήματος είναι Αργυρώνημα και το ΛΚΝ (http://www.komvos.edu.gr/dictonlineplsql/simple_search.display_full_lemma?the_lemma_id=6428&target_dict=1) γράφει:

αργυρώνητος -η -ο [arjirónitos] E5 : (λόγ.) που εξαγοράζεται με χρήματα· πουλημένος: Aργυρώνητοι ψηφοφόροι / οπαδοί / δικαστές / μάρτυρες. [λόγ. < αρχ. ἀργυρώνητος] αυτό το νήμα δεν πωλείται, όσα αργύρια και αν τάξετε.

*σ.τ.δ.: προάλλες: αρχές Γενάρη. Με τη ζωή που κάνουμε, τα χρονικά μας ορόσημα περιορίζονται στα εξής τρία: Χριστούγεννα, Πάσχα, καλοκαίρι, και αν. Για να δικαιολογήσω την αναβλητικότητά μου το λέω, αλλά δεν είναι δα και ψέμα.

[daeman]

Μια παράκληση μόνο.
Αν ποστάρετε μουσικό κομμάτι, παρακαλώ αντιγράψτε ή πληκτρολογήστε και τον τίτλο και τον ερμηνευτή. Έτσι θα είναι πιο εύκολο να τηρήσουμε σ' αυτό το δεύτερο μήνυμα ένα ευρετήριο για το νήμα, ώστε να διευκολύνεται η αναζήτηση και να αποφύγουμε όσο γίνεται τα διπλότυπα. Μαζί γνέθουμε το νήμα, μαζί πλέκουμε και το ευρετήριό του.
Καλή χειροτεχνία κι ευχαριστώ. :)

You Never Give Me Your Money - Beatles


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-e7-1e8CQ8

You never give me your money
You only give me your fine intentions
and in the middle of negotiations
you break down

I never give you my number
I only give you my situation
and in the middle of investigation
I break down

Out of college, money spent
See no future, pay no rent
All the money's gone, nowhere to go
Any jobber got the sack
Monday morning, turning back
Yellow lorry slow, nowhere to go
But oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to go
Oh, that magic feeling
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go

One sweet dream
Pick up the bags and get in the limousine
Soon we'll be away from here
Step on the gas and wipe that tear away
One sweet dream came true... today
Came true... today
Came true... today...yes it did
One two three four five six seven,
All good children go to Heaven

If I were a rich man (Fiddler on the Roof (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiddler_on_the_Roof)) - Topol


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBHZFYpQ6nc

Dear God, you made many, many poor people.
I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be poor.
But it's no great honor either!
So, what would have been so terrible if I had a small fortune?

If I were a rich man,
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.
If I were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
If I were a biddy biddy rich,
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.

I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen,
Right in the middle of the town.
A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below.
There would be one long staircase just going up,
And one even longer coming down,
And one more leading nowhere, just for show.

I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks
For the town to see and hear.
Squaking just as noisily as they can.
And each loud "cheep" and "swaqwk" and "honk" and "quack"
Would land like a trumpet on the ear,
As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man."

If I were a rich man,
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.
If I were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
If I were a biddy biddy rich,
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.

I see my wife, my Golde, looking like a rich man's wife
With a proper double-chin.
Supervising meals to her heart's delight.
I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock.
Oy, what a happy mood she's in.
Screaming at the servants, day and night.

The most important men in town would come to fawn on me!
They would ask me to advise them,
Like a Solomon the Wise.
"If you please, Reb Tevye..."
"Pardon me, Reb Tevye..."
Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes!
And it won't make one bit of difference if i answer right or wrong.
When you're rich, they think you really know!

If I were rich, I'd have the time that I lack
To sit in the synagogue and pray.
And maybe have a seat by the Eastern wall.
And I'd discuss the holy books with the learned men, several hours every day.
That would be the sweetest thing of all.

If I were a rich man,
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.
If I were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, didle didle deedle deedle dum.
If I were a biddy biddy rich,
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.

Lord, who made the lion and the lamb
You decreed I should be what I am
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan
If I were a wealthy man!

Zero Mostel



The original Broadway productio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiddler_on_the_Roof#Original_productions)n opened on September 22, 1964, at the Imperial Theatre, transferred in 1967 to the Majestic Theatre and in 1970 to The Broadway Theatre, and ran for a record-setting total of 3,242 performances. The production was directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins – his last original Broadway staging. The set, designed in the style of Marc Chagall's paintings, was by Boris Aronson.

The cast included Zero Mostel as Tevye the milkman, Maria Karnilova as his wife Golde (each of whom won a Tony for their performances), Beatrice Arthur and later Florence Stanley as Yente the matchmaker, Austin Pendleton as Motel, Bert Convy as Perchik the student revolutionary, Gino Conforti as the fiddler, and Julia Migenes as Hodel.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4a/Image-Chagall_Fiddler.jpg/499px-Image-Chagall_Fiddler.jpg



The musical's title (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiddler_on_the_Roof#Background) stems from the painting "The Fiddler" by Marc Chagall, one of many surreal paintings he created of Eastern European Jewish life, often including a fiddler. The Fiddler is a metaphor for survival, through tradition and joyfulness, in a life of uncertainty and imbalance.

Money, Money, Money (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money,_Money,_Money) - ABBA

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETxmCCsMoD0

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

She Works Hard for the Money (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/She_Works_Hard_for_the_Money_(song)) - Donna Summer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TKQcWEXSKU

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Onetta there in the corner stand
and wonders where she is and
it's strange to her
some people seem to have everything

Nine a.m. on the hour hand
and she's waiting for the bell
and she's looking real pretty
just wait for her clientele

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Twenty five years have
come and gone
and she' seen a lot of tears
of the ones who come in
they really seem to need her there

It's a sacrifice working day to day
for little money just tips for pay
But it's worth it all
just to hear them say that they care

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She already knows
she's seen her bad times
she already knows
these are the good times

She'll never sell out
she never will
not for a dollar bill
she works hard

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Αφού είναι Αργυρώνημα, θέλω να το αφιερώσω στον Αργύρη, που επί δέκα χρόνια στήριξε τις αδηφάγες μουσικές μου προτιμήσεις και μου έμαθε πολλά για τη μουσική που ακόμα αγαπώ σαν εικοσάρης (εδώ δεν μπορώ να βάλω «ως» που να χτυπιέμαι κάτω).

Και διάλεξα ένα τραγούδι σπάνιο, ελάχιστα γνωστό:



Todd Rundgren: Bag Lady

Like a fly batters itself against a window
Time and again and again it senselessly blunders
Up and down the length of West Broadway
The bag lady wanders

Fifty cents rent goes pretty far, when you live in a subway car
One stop’s the same as another
Even Son of Sam sees her sleeping, she’s not worth the bother
Sorrow, do they ever want to cry

Do they see us pass by, where do they come from?
(Simple answers)
Do they come falling, falling from the sky like rain
Crawling up the basement drain, misfits and black sheep
Former brothers, friends of mothers

There is no yesterday, there is no tomorrow
There is only now and that hardly matters
No one cares about sad old ladies
with bags full of tatters

'Cause they come falling, falling from the sky like rain
Crawling up the basement drain, misfits and black sheep
Former brothers, friends of mothers

One day it gets a bit too cold
Maybe a bit too wet, maybe a little too lonely
Lifelessly she lies amidst her bag world
But maybe she’s only, only sleeping.

Ο κόσμος τώρα σ' εκτιμά
μονάχα απ' τους παράδες
κι όσοι δεν έχουνε λεφτά
τους λένε φουκαράδες.

Αν σε δουν να πιάσεις φράγκα,
θα σε πουν νταή και μάγκα
κι αν δεν τα' χεις το "argent",
θα σου πουν "allez-vous-en".

Οι Εύες τώρα την καρδιά
την έχουν στο στομάχι
κι ο έρωτας περιφρονεί
τον άνδρα που δεν τα 'χει.

Αν σε δουν να πιάσεις φράγκα,
όλες είναι αυτές τα πάντα
κι αν δεν το' χεις το "argent",
θα σου πουν "allez-vous-en".

Ό,τι γουστάρεις τ' αποκτάς
φτάνει να πεις το θέλω
κι όλοι σε λεν' αφεντικό
και βγάζουν το καπέλο.

Αν σε δουν να πιάσεις φράγκα,
σου κολλάν μια ματσαράγκα
κι αν δεν το' χεις το "argent",

Adam said "Eve, now listen to me.
Anything you want you can have.
So be a good girl, and let's make a deal.
Swimming pool and four car garage.
The world is your friend.
The door's opening.
Anything you want that you need.
Whoever you need, they're acting so sweet.
Money changes everything.!"

Money! Money, money, money, money, money, money
Money is the root of all evil!

Out pon de street there is a lot of killing
Fighting, fussing, blood is spilling
All over the world, man they are grilling
Out pon de street me have fi watch fi me head
In a me pocket and I don't got no bread
Buss up de copper and dem buss up de lead
Each and every day dem find another man dead.

Money! Money, money, money, money, money, money

I'm getting pounded in the ground.
With this funny money still cycling around.
You know the Euro, kicking Uncle Sam in the who know
You know, deniro, the root of all evil.

Being broker than the Ten Commandments,
And the broker ain't planned this.
Now they talkin' the Amero damn it.
When it come down to it,
Some can see right through it.

Chuck D, sorry that drink's not on me.
You can stick to it, just don't flip to it.
For the sake of money, superstar cars, you see hi-def on somebody's
plasma TV.
Who go from rags to riches and spend their riches on rags,
similar bags with designer name tags.
Be glad you got yourself cause they mad.
They fake, plus they making mad mistakes!
(they tell you your wise,)
You wait and see you can't replace that space.
And I bet money can't keep that smile on your face!

Everybody's nice to you now. (Money!)
Dollars and sense,(You mad at the money that you spent. uh!)
It's fun to do but is it allowed?(sing)
Poor girl in a house of correction.
You're sexy as hell but it won't pay the bills forever.
Bright lights and no information.
Your feet hit the ground, when you lost what you found.

Money! Money, money, money, money, money, money
Money is the root of all evil!

Stay on top!
Make sure you make it,
Make sure that it don't make you!
That goes back old school as far as you can go back.
That's right, you make the money,
Make sure the money don't make you.
Be about something!

Argentina is derived from the Latin argentum ("silver"). The first use of Argentina can be traced to the 1602 poem La Argentina y conquista del Río de la Plata (English: Argentina and the conquest of the Río de la Plata) by Martín del Barco Centenera. Although this name for the La Plata Basin was already in common usage by the 18th century, the area was formally called Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata in 1776. The autonomous governments that emerged from the 1810 May Revolution replaced "Viceroyalty" with "United Provinces".

One of the first prominent uses of the demonym "Argentine" was in the 1812 first Argentine National Anthem, which made reference to the ongoing Argentine War of Independence. The first formal use of the name was in the 1826 constitution, which used both the terms "Argentine Republic" and "Argentine Nation". The Constitution was repealed, and the territories were instead known as the "Argentine Confederation". This name was used in the 1853 Constitution, being changed to that of the "Argentine Nation" in 1859, and to the "Argentine Republic" per an 1860 decree, when the country achieved its current organization. Nevertheless, the names of the "United Provinces of the Río de la Plata", "Argentine Republic" and "Argentine Confederation" are acknowledged as legitimate names of the country.

Προσπαθώ να συγκρατηθώ και να μην καταβαραθρώσω το επίπεδο (:angel:), με άσματα του τύπου «Τι τα θέλεις τα λεφτά (να τα κάψεις τι τα θες)», «Θα τα κάψω, τα ρημάδια τα λεφτά μου», «Για τα λεφτά τα κάνεις όλα», «Όλα τα λεφτά λουλούδια» ή να το στείλω στα αβυσσαλέα βάθη ασμάτων τύπου «Στόχος είναι τα λεφτά»....
έτσι λοιπόν είπα να βάλω αυτό. :inno:

Μάρκος Βαμβακάρης, Όσοι έχουνε πολλά λεφτά

Όσοι έχουνε πολλά λεφτά
να 'ξερα τι τα κάνουν
άραγε σαν πεθάνουνε, βρ' αμάν-αμάν,
μαζί τους θα τα πάρουν

Εγώ ψιλή στην τσέπη μου
ποτές δεν αποτάζω
κι όλα τα ντέρτια μου περνούν, βρ' αμάν-αμάν,
μόνο σαν μαστουριάζω

Αφού στον άλλονε ντουνιά
λεφτά δε θα περνάνε
τα 'χουν και τα θυμιάζουνε, βρ' αμάν-αμάν,
δεν ξέρουν να τα φάνε

The Money Song - Joel Grey & Liza Minnelli


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkRIbUT6u7Q

Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
It makes the world go round

A mark, a yen, a buck or a pound
A buck or a pound, a buck or a pound
Is all that makes the world go round
That clinking, clanking sound
Can make the world go round

Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, money

If you happen to be rich and you feel like a night's entertainment
You can pay for a gay escapade
If you happen to be rich, and alone, and you need
A companion, you can ring tingaling for the maid

If you happen to be rich and you find you are left by your lover
Though you moan and you groan quite a lot
You can take it on the chin
Call a cab, and begin to recover on your fourteen carat yacht

Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
Of that we both are sure
On being poor

Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, mon

When you haven't any coal in the stove and you freeze
In the winter and you curse to the wind at your fate
When you haven't any shoes on your feet and your coat's thin as paper
And you look thirty pounds underweight

When you go to get a word of advice from the fat little pastor
He will tell you to love evermore
But when hunger comes to rap, rat-a-tat, rat-a-tat
At the window, see how love flies out the door

For money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
The clinking, clanking sound of money

Money, money, money, money, money, money, money
Get a little, get a little
Money, money, money, money
Mark, a yen, a buck or a pound
That clinking, clanking, clunking sound
Is all that makes the world go round
It makes the world go round

The Money Song (from the Money programme) - Monty Python's Flying Circus


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sor9GzivGbk

I've got ninety thousand pounds in my pyjamas.
I've got forty thousand French francs in my fridge.
I've got lots of lovely lire.
Now the Deutschmark's getting dearer,
And my dollar bills would buy the Brooklyn Bridge.

There is nothing quite as wonderful as money.
There is nothing quite as beautiful as cash.
Some people say it's folly,
But I'd rather have the lolly.
With money you can make a splash.

There is nothing quite as wonderful as money.
There is nothing like a newly minted pound.
Everyone must hanker
For the butchness of a banker.
It's accountancy that makes the world go 'round.

You can keep your Marxist ways,
For it's only just a phase,
For it's money, money, money makes the world go 'round.

...Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, moneeeeey!

I Mantini - Avec l'argent


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyVbVw4X0zk

Avec l'argent, avec l'argent, va, tout va bien
On revoit les amis qui ne nous parlaient plus
Toutes les filles vous sourient dans la rue
Faut laisser faire et c'est très bien
Avec l'argent tout change autour de vous
J'ai vu même mon banquier se mettre à genoux
Me demandant tout bas comment allez-vous
Lui qui annulait toujours nos rendez-vous
Mais à présent je vous l'avoue
Avec l'argent on s'occupe de vous
Avec l'argent vous n'allez pas le croire
On est toujours invité on paye plus nulle part
Lorsque c'est ma tournée on me dit c'est trop tard
Je n'arrive même plus à dépenser tout mes dollars
Mais si j'ai de l'argent c'est que j'ai réussi et j'en suis fier
J'ai coché les six bon numéros et le complémentaire
Désormais ma vie n'est plus un enfer
Tout le monde se souvient de mon anniversaire
Et personne ne m'a oublié pour la nouvelle année
Alors vraiment avec l'argent on est aimé

Free Money - Patti Smith


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-7hvhxtIBM

Every night before I go to sleep
Find a ticket, win a lottery,
Scoop the pearls up from the sea
Cash them in and buy you all the things you need.

Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills go swirling 'round my bed.
I know they're stolen, but I don't feel bad.
I take that money, buy you things you never had.

Oh, baby, it would mean so much to me,
Oh, baby, to buy you all the things you need for free.
I'll buy you a jet plane, baby,
Get you on a higher plane to a jet stream
And take you through the stratosphere
And check out the planets there and then take you down
Deep where it's hot, hot in Arabia, babia, then cool, cold fields of snow
And we'll roll, dream, roll, dream, roll, roll, dream, dream.
When we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
We'll dream it, dream it for free, free money,
Free money, free money, free money, free money, free money, free money.

Every night before I go to sleep
Find a ticket, win a lottery.
Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills go swirling 'round my bed.

Oh, baby, it would mean so much to me,
Baby, I know our troubles will be gone.
Oh, I know our troubles will be gone, goin' gone
If we dream, dream, dream for free.
And when we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
Let's dream it, we'll dream it for free, free money,

Free money, free money, free money, free.

If I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a house - I would buy you a house
And if I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
I'd buy you furniture for your house - maybe a nice chesterfield or an ottoman
And if I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a K-Car - a nice Reliant automobile
And if I had a million dollars, I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars
I'd build a tree fort in our yard
If I had a million dollars
You could help, it wouldn't be that hard
If I had a million dollars
Maybe we could put like a little tiny fridge in there somewhere

You know, we could just go up there and hang out. Like open the fridge and stuff. There would already be foods laid out for us, like little pre-wrapped sausages and things, mmm. They have pre-wrapped sausages but they don't have pre-wrapped bacon. Well, can you blame 'em? Uh, yeah!

If I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a fur coat - but not a real fur coat, that's cruel
And if I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you an exotic pet - yep, like a llama or an emu
And if I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you John Merrick's remains - ooh, all them crazy elephant bones
And if I had a million dollars, I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to walk to the store
If I had a million dollars
We'd take a limousine 'cause it costs more
If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner

But we would eat Kraft Dinner. Of course we would, we'd just eat more. And buy really expensive ketchups with it. That's right, all the fanciest Dijon ketchups! Mmm. Mmm-hmm.

If I had a million dollars - If I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a green dress - but not a real green dress, that's cruel
And if I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you some art - a Picasso or a Garfunkel
If I had a million dollars - if I had a million dollars
Well, I'd buy you a monkey - haven't you always wanted a monkey
If I had a million dollars, I'd buy your love

If I had a million dollars, if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars, if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars, I'd be rich

Couvre-le d'or et de diamants
Cachez-vous en attendant
Vous n'attendrez pas longtemps
Les vautours tournent autour

Le blé a les dents acérées
Et les hyènes vont le dévorer
Le môme deviendra banquier
Ou le môme sera lessive, lessive

Je dis, argent, trop cher,
trop grand
La vie n'a pas de prix

Prends ton meilleur ami,
fais-en un ennemi
Je t'achète et je te vends
Vautre dans le coma

Mon pote, t'es comme un rat,
t'es commun, c'est mortel
Les vautours tournent autour
toujours

Criez NON a l'esclavage
Et payez-leurs
de nouvelles cages
Faites installer des pièges
La ou commence la rage,
la rage
e dis, argent, trop cher,
trop grand
La vie n'a pas de prix

Un compte bloque,
l'autre a découvert
Maintenant, banque !

Les vautours tournent autour
de nous maintenant

Tu en as, tu n'en n'as pas
Tu n'as pas vraiment le choix
Un mur de briques devant toi
Il est temps, dépense-toi,
dépense-toi

For the love of money - The O'Jays (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_O'Jays)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll3uipTO-4A

Money money money money, money
Some people got to have it
Some people really need it
Listen to me y'all, do things, do things, do bad things with it
You wanna do things, do things, do things, good things with it
Talk about cash money, money
Talk about cash money- dollar bills, yall

For the love of money
People will steal from their mother
For the love of money
People will rob their own brother
For the love of money
People can't even walk the street
Because they never know who in the world they're gonna beat
For that lean, mean, mean green
Almighty dollar, money

For the love of money
People will lie, Lord, they will cheat
For the love of money
People don't care who they hurt or beat
For the love of money
A woman will sell her precious body
For a small piece of paper it carries a lot of weight
Call it lean, mean, mean green

Almighty dollar

I know money is the root of all evil
Do funny things to some people
Give me a nickel, brother can you spare a dime
Money can drive some people out of their minds

Got to have it, I really need it
How many things have I heard you say
Some people really need it
How many things have I heard you say
Got to have it, I really need it
How many things have I heard you say
Lay down, lay down, a woman will lay down
For the love of money
All for the love of money
Don't let, don't let, don't let money rule you
For the love of money
Money can change people sometimes
Don't let, don't let, don't let money fool you
Money can fool people sometimes
People! Don't let money, don't let money change you,
it will keep on changing, changing up your mind.

Je bâtirais un vrai palais
montant jusqu'au ciel
sur la place du marché
des murs plantés bien droit
sous un toit doré
un escalier de marbre
un autre tout en bois
l'un pour entrer l'autre pour sortir
et encore un troisième pour la joie

et plein ?????????????cours du soir?
des coqs et des poules
toute la ville m'envirait
car ça piaillerait
ça caquetterait
et chaque coicoicoicoi(bruit de poule) rororo(bruit de cochon)

je la vois se pavanant avec sa robe a traine
au mon dieu! quel dignité!
même quand elle dispute les valets

Les plus grands bonnets de la ville
me fera découverte?
ils me demanderaient conseil
comme un salomone sage
s'il vous plait rabitavié

milles problème à collé
le grand rabbé? boï boï…

que je dise blanc
que je dise noir
il faudra bien me croire
quand tu es riche
tu as toujours raison

si j'étais riche
j'aurais enfin
tout le temps d'aller
prier a la sinagogue
assis au 1er rang
je verrais bien
et je discuterais
la loi avec les anciens
au moins 7 heures par jour
dans la reflexion et dans la mort

Diamonds are a girl's best friend - Marilyn Monroe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PluRW3_FEt0


The French are glad to die for love.
They delight in fighting duels.
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels.
A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

A kiss may be grand
But it won't pay the rental
On your humble flat
Or help you at the automat.

Men grow cold
As girls grow old,
And we all lose our charms in the end.

But square-cut or pear-shaped,
These rocks don't loose their shape.
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Tiffany's!
Cartier!
Black Starr!
Frost Gorm!
Talk to me Harry Winston.
Tell me all about it!

There may come a time
When a lass needs a lawyer,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

There may come a time
When a hard-boiled employer

Thinks you're awful nice,
But get that ice or else no dice.

He's your guy
When stocks are high,
But beware when they start to descend.

It's then that those louses
Go back to their spouses.
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

I've heard of affairs
That are strictly platonic,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.

And I think affairs
That you must keep liaisonic
Are better bets
If little pets get big baguettes.

Time rolls on,
And youth is gone,
And you can't straighten up when you bend.

But stiff back
Or stiff knees,
You stand straight at Tiffany's.

Diamonds! Diamonds!
I don't mean rhinestones!
But diamonds are a girl's best friend

Grâce aux bénéfices qu’on a fait en chantant
Grâce à l’artiche qu’ont dépensé les gens
Ah, je suis riche...

Si j'étais che-ri, ma chérie,
Ma maladie, ma love story
Une bague au doigt et j't'emmène à la mairie
Si tu me suis pas, je me fais hara kiriche
Quand je serais riche à 60%
Y aura de la tune même pour mes petits enfants
Ah, si j’était riche...

J'ai refait ma triche et je roule en Merço
Si j'veux filet, je filet 'o fish
Quand je filet au fish, je vais au McDo'

Si j’étais riche, si j'étais riche, oui
Je ne suis pas riche, je ne suis pas riche

Et moi, je suis de classe moyenne, ni bas ni haut
Je ne connais plus la gène du compte à zéro
Ouais, je suis riche...

Oui, elle est riche...

Di gui di gui di gui di gui di oh
Riche, riche, riche, ah je suis riche
Et toi aussi, dis Gynéco

I think they're O.K.
If they don't give me proper credit
I just walk away

They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light, that's right
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right, 'cause we are

Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
That's all right with me
If they can't raise my interest then I
Have to let them be

Some boys try and some boys lie but
I don't let them play
Only boys who save their pennies
Make my rainy day, 'cause they are

Get you on a higher plane to a jet stream
And take you through the stratosphere
And check out the planets there and then take you down
Deep where it's hot, hot in arabia, babia, then cool, cold fields of snow
And we'll roll, dream, roll, dream, roll, roll, dream, dream.
When we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
We'll dream it, dream it for free, free money,
Free money, free money, free money, free money, free money, free money.

Every night before I go to sleep
Find a ticket, win a lottery.
Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills go swirling 'round my bed.

Oh, baby, it would mean so much to me,
Baby, I know our troubles will be gone.
Oh, I know our troubles will be gone, goin' gone
If we dream, dream, dream for free.
And when we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
Let's dream it, we'll dream it for free, free money,
Free money, free money, free money, x7
Free money, free money, free money, free.

DALIDA Si J'avais Des Millions 1968

[Refrain] :
Si j'avais des millions
Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum
Tout le jour à Bidibidiboum
Ah! si j'étais cousu d'or

Je travaillerais moins fort
Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum
Si j'avais quelques mini-millions
Tchiribiribiribiriboum

Je bâtirais en pleine ville une maison haute
Avec des chambres sans compter
Avec un toit de tuiles et des vrais parquets
Un escalier fait pour monter
L'autre pour descendre un troisième encore
Rien que pour agrémenter le décor

Je me vois d'ici très à l'aise en femme de riche
Essayant de tendre le cou
Relevant un menton qu'empèse, un poids de bijoux
Goûtant les plats surveillant tout
Houspillant les bonnes
Fière comme un paon
Dirigeant la maison tambour battant
Ha !

[Refrain]

Aïe! Aïe! Aïe!

Je travaillerais moins fort
Tchiribiribiribiribiribiriboum
Dieu Puissant toi qui es éternel
Tu pourrais faire un petit effort
Ça changerait quoi du haut du ciel
Qu'enfin je sois cousu d'or.

And you'll have to admit, I'll be rich as shit
I'll just sit and grin, the money will roll right in

I would give you some, if you only would have treated me nice
You'll wish that you did, you'll feel pretty stupid
I'll just sit and grin, the money will roll right in

Στα ίσα και στ' ανάποδα φωνές στον ύπνο μου άκουγα.
Αυτί μου πλανημένο στον Άδη κατεβαίνω.
Κατεβαίνω σα νυφούλα που 'χασε το μάγκα της,
ωχ! ωχ! ω! το λούσο και τα φράγκα της.

Είναι σπηλιά, είν' όαση, σβησμένη τηλεόραση.
Ωχρή σαν το λεμόνι, στου Ήφαιστου τ' αμόνι
κλαίω και παρακαλάω: "Να γεννηθώ δεν πρόφτασα,
ωχ! ωχ! ω! ζωή μου δεν σε χόρτασα".

Και να' σου πλησιάζουνε ανδρείκελα που μοιάζουνε.
Περίεργα κοιτάνε μα δε με βοηθάνε.
"Βγάλ' τα πέρα μοναχή σου όπως κάναμε όλοι μας,
ωχ! ωχ! ω! γαμώ το πορτοφόλι μας".

L'argent fait le bonheur, l'argent
On peut dire ce qu'on peut
Mais l'on fait pas ce qu'on veut
Sans l'argent
Oui, l'argent fait le bonheur

Je vais chez mon garagiste
Pour faire changer mes pe-neus
Ça coûte de l'argent
Je vais chez mon barbier
Pour faire teindre mes cheveux
Ça coûte de l'argent
L'argent fait le bonheur

L'argent fait le bonheur, l'argent...

Je vais au magasin
Pour m'acheter des cossins
Encore l'argent
Je veux manger des bananes
Manger des dîners en canne
Mais j'ai pas d'argent
"C'est ça qui est le malheur..."

L'argent fait le bonheur, l'argent
On peut dire ce qu'on peut
Mais l'on fait pas ce qu'on veut
Sans l'argent
Oui, l'argent fait le bonheur

Si tu veux aller danser
Si tu veux t'éclater
"Ça prend l'argent"
Et si tu veux amuser
Ta nouvelle fiancée
"Donne-lui de l'argent!"
Oui, beaucoup, beaucoup d'argent!...

L'argent fait le bonheur, l'argent
On peut dire ce qu'on peut
Mais l'on fait pas ce qu'on veut
Sans l'argent
Oui, l'argent fait le bonheur

Quand tu veux changer le monde
Tu reçois toujours des comptes
Encore l'argent
Oui et ça monte et ça monte
Pour toi c'est la fin du monde
Fuck l'argent
L'argent fait le bonheur

Et quand tu en auras plus
T'auras manqué l'autobus
Usé comme tous tes gugusses
T'auras perdu tout ton temps...

Pour l'argent qui fait le bonheur, l'argent
On peut dire ce qu'on peut
Mais l'on fait pas ce qu'on veut
Sans l'argent
Oui, l'argent fait le bonheur

On peut dire ce qu'on peut
Mais l'on ne fait pas ce qu'on veut...
Sans l'argent

K.I.Z. - Geld essen



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQWTefxFHDM



Werde Zeuge wie K.I.Z. übers Land zieht, mit vier-Sack-Antrieb,
du brauchst street-credibility und lässt dir Kugeln implantieren,
du hast Fans ich Jünger die vor deinem Studio explodieren,
du heulst 'rum wenn einer Nutte oder Hurensohn sagt,
bist neidisch weil ich deine Alte mit'm Nudelholz jag,
was würden wir tun wenn wir diese Fans nicht hätten,
die das dritte Album kaufen auf dem wir ausschließlich über Schwänze rappen,
wir wollen Liebe und Scheine,
K.I.Z. ist Untergrund dann schließ dich in dei'm Keller ein
und denk du hast uns für dich alleine,
Frauen rufen an ich lege auf wie mein DJ,
setze mich setze mich an den Computer und check mein she-males,
rockstars bloß ohne Klampfe und H,
rappt ruhig über Waffen und Geld
doch es geht nur noch um Punchlines und Steaks,
Schwänze draußen bis zur letzten Melodie,
man sagt die guten sterben jung, doch die besten sterben nie...

Hook:

Wir haben das Land gefickt,
steh'n auf der Bühne mit leerem Bauch und der Hand im Schritt,
Ich habe euer Maul gestopft aber meins noch nicht,
euer Maul gestopft meins noch nicht,
was bringt uns der Respekt wenn wir nix verdienen,
wir haben ausgestopfte Rapper über unser'm Kamin,
ich habe Hunger, ich habe Hunger,
ich will Geld essen, Geld essen,

Part 2 [Tarek] :

Diese Mordattentate sind eine Heuschreckenplage,
Kugeln treffen mich nicht weil ich 70 Goldketten trage,
Nach der Auto-bombe setz ich mich wieder zusamm'
um ins Studio zu kommen nehm ich heut lieber die Tram,
Ich bin unbeliebt, seit dem ich beim Bunker unterschrieb,
mach ich menschenverachtende Untergrundmusik,
mir ist Scheißegal, ob sich dieser Mist verkauft,
Rapper flüchten auf Klo, kacken ihr Rückrad aus,
Strippoker um dein Leben, mit deiner Frau im Garten,
ich nehme sie von hinten und schau ihr in die Karten,
sie sagt sie würd sich vor dei'm Fischstäbchen ekeln,
deine Oma möchte mir ein Strick für dich häkeln,
deine Mama wird gebumst bis sich dein Vater verfärbt,
70 Männer in ihr drin, ein trojanisches Pferd,
O-Opfer bring mir ein Drink, sei ein nützliches Kind,
deutscher Rap weckt meinen Beschützerinstinkt...

Hook:

Wir haben das Land gefickt,
steh'n auf der Bühne mit leerem Bauch und der Hand im Schritt,
Ich habe euer Maul gestopft aber meins noch nicht,
euer Maul gestopft meins noch nicht,
was bringt uns der Respekt wenn wir nix verdienen,
wir haben ausgestopfte Rapper über unser'm Kamin,
ich habe Hunger, ich habe Hunger,
ich will Geld essen, Geld essen,

Part 3 [Maxim] :

Wir haben einen Pakt mit dem Teufel unterschrieben - oohlala,
frag mich wie dein Album ist - so lalaa,
das ist meine letzte Nacht, licht auf mich ich hol den Sack raus,
früher gab's für sowas Ritalin, heute Applaus,
du musst es echt halten, trag nur noch Kleider und schmink dich,
das Licht im Bunker macht meine haut blass und ich bräune mich im Blitzlicht,
all diese Rapper sind Schlangen, sie nehmen Eier in den Hals,
ich komm nicht mit vor die Tür, wir gehen gleich in den Wald,
das ist freie Gewalt ich kämpfe für rohe Liebe,
zum Glück für dich ist der Rest meiner Leute im Zoo geblieben,
ich guck nicht länger zu während der Rest von euch abkassiert,
als ich klein war habe ich auf Catwoman masturbiert,
wir sind 'ne Boygroup, der Bunker ist nur Tarnung,
Groupies werden ohnmächtig, ich mache Arsch-zu-Mund-Beatmung,
Meine Lehrer haben gesagt ich wär ein fauler Spasst,
doch heute schreien die Nutten "Jaa" wie im Sportpalast,

Hook:

Wir haben das Land gefickt,
steh'n auf der Bühne mit leerem Bauch und der Hand im Schritt,
Ich habe euer Maul gestopft aber meins noch nicht,
euer Maul gestopft meins noch nicht,
was bringt uns der Respekt wenn wir nix verdienen,
wir haben ausgestopfte Rapper über unser'm Kamin,
ich habe Hunger, ich habe Hunger,
ich will Geld essen, Geld essen...

Le portefeuille de Manu Chao / Wampas



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97AxSaW6t5U


Je chante dans les glaviots
Un groupe punk de Normandie
On répète dans la grange
Tous les mardi et les jeudi
Et quand au bout d'un quart d'heure
On a assez fait de bruit
On s'assoit dans le foin
Et on chante ce refrain

Si j'avais l'portefeuille de Manu Chao
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'au Congo
Si j'avais l'compte en banque de Louise Attaque
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'a Paques

C'est beau la Normandie comme le dit maman tante Marie
Mais si j'avais du blé je partirais bien loin d'ici
Souvent les soirs d'été
J'm'assois dans les champs de blé
Je ferme doucement les yeux
Et j'écoute les pommiers chanter

Si j'avais l'portefeuille de Manu Chao
J'partirais en vacances avec tous mes poteaux
Si j'avais l'compte en banque de Louise Attaque
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'à Paques (Ouhh)

Si j'avais l'portefeuille de Manu Chao
J'partirais en vacances dans une super moto
Si j'avais l'compte en banque de Louise Attaque
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'à Paques

Moi aussi si j'pouvais
J'irais bien jusqu'au Mexique
Boire de la Tequila avec le Commandant Marcos
Mais j'ai encore au moins
5 hectares a labourer
J'remonte sur mon tracteur
Et j'chante pour m'donner du coeur

Si j'avais l'portefeuille de Manu Chao
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'au Congo
Si j'avais l'compte en banque de Louise Attaque
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'à Paques

Mais j'ai pas un beau chapeau comme Manu Chao
Et j'irais en vacances seulement à St Lô
Et j'ai pas de la classe comme comme Didier Wampas
J'resterais pour les vacances tout seul avec mes vaches

Si j'avais l'portefeuille de Manu chao
J'partirais en vacances avec tous mes poteaux
Si j'avais l'compte en banque la Louise Attaque
J'partirais en vacances au moins jusqu'à Paques

2. Who Needs The Peace Corps?
What's there to live for?
Who needs the peace corps?
Think I'll just DROP OUT
I'll go to Frisco
Buy a wig & sleep
On Owsley's floor
Walked past the wig store
Danced at the Fillmore
I'm completely stoned
I'm hippy & I'm trippy
I'm a gypsy on my own
I'll stay a week & get the crabs &
Take a bus back home
I'm really just a phony
But forgive me
'Cause I'm stoned
Every town must have a place
Where phony hippies meet
Psychedelic dungeons
Popping up every street
GO TO SAN FRANCISCO

3. Concentration Moon
Concentration Moon
Over the camp in the valley
Concentration Moon
Wish I was back in the alley
With all of my friends,
Still running free:
Hair growing out
Every hole in me
AMERICAN WAY
How did it start?
Thousands of creeps
Killed in the park
AMERICAN WAY
Try and explain
Scab of a nation
Driven insane
Don't cry
Gotta go bye bye
SUDDENLY: DIE DIE
COP KILL A CREEP! pow pow pow
Concentration Moon
Over the camp in the valley
Concentration Moon
Wish I was back in the alley
With all of my friends,
Still running free:
Hair growing out

AMERICAN WAY
Threatened by US
Drag a few creeps
Away in a bus
AMERICAN WAY
Prisoner: lock
SMASH EVERY CREEP
IN THE FACE WITH A ROCK
Don't cry
Gotta go bye bye
SUDDENLY: DIE DIE
COP KILL A CREEP! pow pow pow

4. Mom & Dad
Mama! Mama!
Someone said they made some noise
The cops have shot some girls & boys
You'll sit home & drink all night
They looked too weird... it served them right
Ever take a minute just to show a real emotion
In between the moisture cream & velvet facial lotion?
Ever tell your kids you're glad that they can think?
Ever say you loved 'em? Ever let 'em watch you drink?
Ever wonder why your daughter looked so sad?
It's such a drag to have to love a plastic Mom & Dad
Mama! Mama!
Your child was killed in the park today
Shot by the cops as she quietly lay
By the side of the creeps she knew...
They killed her too.

Bow tie daddy dontcha blow your top

Just have your fun, you old son of a gun
Then drive home in your Lincoln

6. Harry, You're A Beast

And I'm not gonna be kind or easy
Your whole attitude stinks, I say
And the life you lead is completely empty
You paint your head

You don't even know what I just said
THAT'S YOU: AMERICAN WOMANHOOD!
You're phony on top
Phony underneath
You lay in bed & grit your teeth

On comet & cupid on donner & blitzen
On up & away & afar & a go-go
Escape from the weight of your corporate logo!

(an instrumental overture to a series of songs about people with strange personal habits... many of which happen to be my dearest friends.)

12. Let's Make The Water Turn Black
Now believe me when I tell you that my song is really true
I want everyone to listen and believe
It's about some little people from a long time ago
And all the things the neighbors didn't know
Early in the morning Daddy Dinky went to work
Selling lamps & chairs to San Ber'dino squares
And I still remember Mama with her apron & her pad
Feeding all the boys at Ed's Cafe!
Whizzing & pasting & pooting through the day
(Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away!)
And all the while on a shelf in the shed:
KENNY'S LITTLE CREATURES ON DISPLAY!
Ronnie saves his numies on a window in his room
(A marvel to be seen: dysentery green)
While Kenny & his buddies had a game out in the back:
LET'S MAKE THE WATER TURN BLACK
We see them after school in a world of their own
(To some it might seem creepy what they do...)
The neighbors on the right sat & watched them every night
(I bet you'd do the same if they was you)
Whizzing & pasting & pooting through the day
(Ronnie helping Kenny helping burn his poots away!)
And all the while on a shelf in the shed:
KENNY'S LITTLE CREATURES ON DISPLAY!
Ronnie's in the Army now & Kenny's taking pills
Oh! How they yearn to see a bomber burn!
Color flashing, thunder crashing, dynamite machine!
(Wait till the fire turns green... wait till the fire turns green)
WAIT TILL THE FIRE TURNS GREEN!

13. The Idiot Bastard Son
The idiot bastard son

(ABANDONED TO PERISH
IN BACK OF A CAR
KENNY WILL STASH HIM AWAY IN A JAR)
THE IDIOT BOY!
(all the time he would spend
at the church he'd attend...
warming his pew)
Kenny will feed him & Ronnie will watch
THE CHILD WILL THRIVE & GROW
And enter the world
Of liars & cheaters & people like you
Who smile & think you know
What this is about
(YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING... maybe so)
The song we sing, DO YOU KNOW?
We're listening...
THE IDIOT BOY!
(all the time he would spend
all the colors he'd blend...
where are they now?)

14. Lonely Little Girl (It's His Voice On The Radio)
You're a lonely little girl
But your Mommy & your Daddy don't care
You're a lonely little girl
The things they say
Just hurt your heart
It's too late now
For them to start
To understand
The way you feel
The world for them
Is too unreal
So you're lonely, lonely, lonely
Lonely little girl

15. Take Your Clothes Off When You Dance
There will come a time when everybody
Who is lonely will be free...
TO SING & DANCE & LOVE
There will come a time when every evil
That we know will be an evil...
THAT WE CAN RISE ABOVE
Who cares if hair is long or short
or sprayed or partly grayed...
WE KNOW THAT HAIR AIN'T WHERE IT'S AT
(there will come a time when you won't
even be ashamed if you are fat!)
WAH WAH-WAH WAH
There will come a time when everybody
Who is lonely will be free...
TO SING & DANCE & LOVE (dance and love)
There will come a time when every evil
that we know will be an evil...
THAT WE CAN RISE ABOVE (rise above)
Who cares if you're so poor you can't afford
To buy a pair of Mod A Go-Go stretch-elastic pants...
THERE WILL COME A TIME WHEN YOU CAN EVEN
TAKE YOUR CLOTHES OFF WHEN YOU DANCE

16. What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body (reprise)
What's the ugliest
Part of your body?
What's the ugliest
Part of your body?
Some say your nose
Some say your toes
But I think it's your MIND...
I think it's your mind
(fade our babbling inanities)

17. Mother People
We are the other people
We are the other people
You're the other people too
Found a way to get to you...
Do you think that I'm crazy?
Out of my mind?
Do you think that I creep in the night
And sleep in a phone booth?
Lemme take a minute & tell you my plan
Lemme take a minute & tell who I am
If it doesn't show
Think you better know
I'm another person
Do you think that my pants are too tight
Do you think that I'm creepy?
Lemme take a minute & tell you my plan
Lemme take a minute & tell who I am
If it doesn't show
Think you better know
I'm another person
(the verse that really goes here has been censored out & recorded backwards in a special section at the end of side one...)
We are the other people
We are the other people
You're the other people too
Found a way to get to you
We are the other people
We are the other people
You're the other people too
Found a way to get to you
Do you think that I love you...
Stupid & blind?
Do you think that I dream through the night
Of holding you near me?

instructions for the use of this material... READ CAREFULLY:
1. If you have already worked your way through "IN THE PENAL COLONY" by Franz Kafka, skip instructions #2, #3, #4.
2. Everybody else: go dig up a book of short stories & read "IN THE PENAL COLONY"
3. DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS PIECE UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THE STORY
4. After you have read the story, put the book away & turn on the record player ... it is now safe to listen (DO NOT READ & LISTEN AT THE SAME TIME).
5. As you listen, think of the concentration camps in California constructed during world war II to house potentially dangerous oriental citizens... the same camps which many say are now being readied for use as part of the FINAL SOLUTION to the NON-CONFORMIST (hippy?) PROBLEM today. You might allow yourself (regardless of the length of you hair or how you feel about greedy wars & paid assassins) to imagine YOU ARE A GUEST AT CAMP REAGAN. You might imagine you have been invited to try out a wonderful new RECREATIONAL DEVICE (designed by the Human Factors Engineering Lab as a method of relieving tension & pent-up hostilities among the members of the CAMP STAFF... a thankless job which gives little or no ego gratification... even for the chief warden).
6. At the end of the piece, the name of YOUR CRIME will be carved on your back.

Brother, My Cup is Empty - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR8J36fIa1w

Brother, my cup is empty
And I haven't got a penny
For to buy no more whiskey
I have to go home

I am the captain of my pain
Tis the bit, the bridle,
The trashing cane
The stirrup, the harness
The whipping mane
The pickled eye
The shrinking brain
O brother, buy me one more drink
I'll explain the nature of my pain
Yes, let me tell you once again
I am the captain of my pain

O brother, my cup is empty
And I haven't got a penny
For to buy no more whiskey
I have to go home

I cannot blame it all on her
To blame her all would be a lie
For many a night I lay awake
And wished that I could watch her die
To see her accusing finger spurt
To see flies swarm her hateful eye
To watch her groaning in the dirt
To see her clicking tongue crack dry
O brother, buy me one more drink
One more drink and then goodbye
And do not mock me when I say
Let's drink one more before I die

O brother, my cup is empty
And I haven't got a penny
For to buy no more whiskey
I have to go home

Well I've been sliding down on rainbows
Well I've been swinging from the stars
Now this wretch in beggars clothing
Bangs his cup across the bars
Look, this cup of mine is empty!
Seems I've misplaced my desires
Seems I'm sweeping up the ashes
Of all my former fires
So brother, be a brother
And fill this tiny cup of mine
And please, sir, make it whiskey
For I have no head for wine

O brother, my cup is empty
And I haven't got a penny
For to buy no more whiskey
I have to go home

I counted up my blessings
And counted only one
One tiny little blessing
And now that blessings gone
So buy me one more drink, my brother
Then I'm taking to the road
Yes, I'm taking to the rain
I'm taking to the snow
O my friend, my only brother
Do not let the party grieve
So throw a dollar onto the bar
Now kiss my ass and leave

O brother, my cup is empty
And I haven't got a penny
For to buy no more whiskey
I have to go home

Brother, Can You Spare a Dime (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brother,_Can_You_Spare_a_Dime%3F) - Tom Waits


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVE72Ae82Tw&NR=1

Lyrics by Yip Harburg, music by Jay Gorney (1931)

They used to tell me I was building a dream,
and so I followed the mob.
When there was earth to plow or guns to bear,
I was always there right on the job.
They used to tell me I was building a dream,
with peace and glory ahead
Why should I be standing in line,
just waiting for bread?

Once I built a railroad, I made it run,
I made it race against time.
Once I built a railroad; now it's done.
Brother, can you spare a dime?

Once I built a tower, up to the sun,
brick, and rivet, and lime;
Once I built a tower, now it's done.
Brother, can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell,
Full of that Yankee Doodly Dum,
Half a million boots went slogging through Hell,
And I was the kid with the drum!
Say, don't you remember, they called me Al;
it was Al all the time.
Why don't you remember, I'm your pal?
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell,
Full of that Yankee Doodly Dum,
Half a million boots went slogging through Hell,
And I was the kid with the drum!
Say, don't you remember, they called me Al;
it was Al all the time.
Say, don't you remember, I was your pal?
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Και η στροφή που πρόσθεσε ο ίδιος ο στιχουργός για την οικονομική κρίση της δεκαετίας του '70 (stagflation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_stagflation_of_the_1970s)).

Once we had a Roosevelt
Praise the Lord!
Life had meaning and hope.
Now we're stuck with Nixon, Agnew, Ford,
Brother, can you spare a rope?

The Richest Man in Babylon - Thievery Corporation


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmWGaKgXnHM

There is no guidance in your kingdom
Your wicked walk in Babylon
There is no wisdom to your freedom
The richest man in Babylon

Your beggars sleep outside your doorway
Your prophets leave to wonder on
You fall asleep at night with worry
The saddest man in Babylon

The wicked stench of exploitation
Hangs in the air and lingers on
Beneath the praise and admiration
The weakest man in Babylon

There is no hope left in your kingdom
Your servants have burned all their songs
Nobody here remembers freedom
The richest man in Babylon

Si la lou Babylon go 'dain
Babylon gon' be rich again
But to we don' sick again
But no we no weak again
Babyloooon on on on on
(Rasta scat)
Babylon come 'round
You better know you better understand
'Fact you know you better hear what they say
Babylon this is your final day
Babylon this is your final call
Read the writin' it's on the wall
Sayin' if divided we stand
Then together we fall
And if I know that
You're not 'gon catch me in a rat pack
We not go fallin' on your death trap
No way...

Εμένα λόγια μη μου λες και μη με περιπαίζεις
μπορεί μια μέρα να με δεις διευθυντή τραπέζης
αβέρτα τα χιλιάρικα στους φίλους μου θα δίνω
και με λουλά πολίτικο το ναργιλέ θα πίνω

Τι πράμα είναι ο άνθρωπος δεν το 'χω καταλάβει
εκεί που σβήνει πυρκαγιές άλλες φωτιές ανάβει
κι αν του φερθεί μπαμπέσικα η τύχη η ρουφιάνα
πατέρα κάνει τον καιρό και την ελπίδα μάνα

Γι αυτό ξηγήσου φρόνιμα και μη με κατακρίνεις
μα στην καινούργια μοιρασιά κουράγιο να μου δίνεις
γιατί άμα πέσουν τα χαρτιά και δεν πετύχω άσσο
καλογεράκι θα γενώ και θα φορέσω ράσο

Dead End Street - The Kinks


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuNzGnW1-mk

There's a crack up in the ceiling,
And the kitchen sink is leaking.
Out of work and got no money,
A Sunday joint of bread and honey.

What are we living for?
Two-roomed apartment on the second floor.
No money coming in,
The rent collector's knocking, trying to get in.

We are strictly second class,
We don't understand,
(Dead end!)
Why we should be on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
People are living on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
Gonna die on dead end street.

refrain:
Dead end street
Dead end street

On a cold and frosty morning,
Wipe my eyes and stop me yawning.
And my feet are nearly frozen,
Boil the tea and put some toast on.

What are we living for?
Two-roomed apartment on the second floor.
No chance to emigrate,
I'm deep in debt and now it's much too late.

We both want to work so hard,
We can't get the chance,
(Dead end!)
People live on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
People are dying on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
Gonna die on dead end street.

refrain

(Dead end!)
People live on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
People are dying on dead end street.
(Dead end!)
Gonna die on dead end street.

Dead end street
Head to my feet
Dead end street
How's it feel?
Dead end street

Sunny Afternoon - The Kinks


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h1oRP7FfBw

The taxman's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everythin' I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon

Save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me

And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, in the summertime
In the summertime

My girlfriend's gone off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty

Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon

Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay

'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, in the summertime
In the summertime

Since this recession I'm losing my baby,
Because the times are getting so hard
Yes, I have to stop running around,
Man, you know it's breaking my heart

Yes, I can't afford no liquor,
All I can buy is beer and wine
Well I can't get my baby what she wants,
And she stays cross al the time, yes help me

Yes, please, please somebody,
Please go out to Washington for me
Yes, think about us out here
Help me get out of this misery

Το 1939 εκδόθηκαν τα "Σταφύλια της Οργής (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grapes_of_Wrath)" του Τζον Στάινμπεκ με τον τίτλο τους εμπνευσμένο από τους στίχους ενός από τα πιο γνωστά αμερικανικά πατριωτικά τραγούδια, του Battle Hymn of the Republic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battle_Hymn_of_the_Republic) (Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord: / He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; / He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword: / His truth is marching on...), που με τη σειρά τους αναφέρονταν σε ένα χωρίο (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grapes_of_Wrath#Title) της βιβλικής Αποκάλυψης.

Το 1940, ο Τζον Φορντ γύρισε την κλασική ταινία (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grapes_of_Wrath_(film)) με τον ίδιο τίτλο, βασισμένη στο έργο του Στάινμπεκ.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9d/Grapeswrath992.jpg/250px-Grapeswrath992.jpg

Την ίδια χρονιά ο Γούντι Γκάθρι (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie), έχοντας περάσει και ο ίδιος (http://www.woodyguthrie.org/biography/biography2.htm) τα βάσανα που περιγράφονται στα "Σταφύλια της Οργής", είδε την ταινία και συγκλονίστηκε. Εκείνο το βράδυ έγραψε την "Μπαλάντα του Τομ Τζόουντ", από το όνομα του ήρωα του μυθιστορήματος, που υποδυόταν στην ταινία ο Χένρι Φόντα:


Like all true stories (http://monkeymindonline.blogspot.com/2009/09/ballad-of-tom-joad-reflection-on-that.html), there are more than a couple of versions to how Woody Guthrie got around to writing the Ballad of Tom Joad. In fact Woody is responsible for a couple of those versions, himself.

The gist of it appears to be that Woody, who was not famous for wide reading, one day went to a Manhattan theater and saw John Ford’s masterwork, “The Grapes of Wrath.” He was really impressed, really impressed. He thought it went right to the heart of the matter and was worried that someone without the quarter it cost to see the movie might not get to hear it.

His friend Pete Seeger recounts how he ran into Woody that very day, and how Woody feverishly asked if Pete had a typewriter he could use. Pete said no, but that his friend Jerry Oberwager did. So, they purchased a half-gallon jug of wine (of course…) and went to Jerry’s apartment, a six-flight walk up.

Pete tells us how Woody, “sat down and started typing away. He would stand up every few seconds and test out a verse on his guitar and sit down and type some more.” Pete added, “About one o’clock (Jerry) and I got so sleepy we couldn’t stay awake. In the morning we found Woody curled up on the floor under the table; the half-gallon of wine was almost empty and the completed ballad was sitting near the typewriter.”
...
The story is there in the book, the movie and the song. And I absolutely agree with Woody Guthrie, this is a world-class story. It is a true story. And, as with all true stories, there are many different versions. Like the blind men and the elephant, we each of us find some part that is more meaningful for us.

So, in a column he wrote for the “People’s World,” which I think was a Communist newspaper of the day, Woody opined “'The Grapes of Wrath', you know is about us pullin’ out of Oklahoma and Arkansas, and down south, and a driftin’ around over (to the) state of California, busted, disgusted, down and out, and a lookin’ for work. Shows you how come us to be that a way. Shows the dam bankers men that broke us and the dust that choked us, and comes right out in plain old English and says what to do about it.

“It says you got to get together and have some meetins, and stick together, and raise old billy hell till you get your job, and get your farm back, and your house and your chickens and your groceries and your clothes, and your money back. Go to see 'Grapes of Wrath', pardner, go to see it and don’t miss.”

True enough, something like that’s there in the story. I think he’s got his hand on the broad flank of that elephant. But it’s Woody’s conclusion that takes my breath away. After the call to equity, and perhaps to revolution, Woody tells us, “You was the star in that picture. Go and see your own self and hear your own words and your own song.”


(The Ballad of) Tom Joad - Woody Guthrie


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKWGAGPy_kw

Tom Joad (http://www.woodyguthrie.org/Lyrics/Tom_Joad.htm) got out of the old McAlester Pen;
There he got his parole.
After four long years on a man killing charge,
Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road, poor boy,
Tom Joad come a-walkin' down the road.

Tom Joad, he met a truck driving man;
There he caught him a ride.
He said, "I just got loose from McAlester Pen
On a charge called homicide,
A charge called homicide."

That truck rolled away in a cloud of dust;
Tommy turned his face toward home.
He met Preacher Casey, and they had a little drink,
But they found that his family they was gone,
He found that his family they was gone.

He found his mother's old fashion shoe,
Found his daddy's hat.
And he found little Muley and Muley said,
"They've been tractored out by the cats,
They've been tractored out by the cats."

Tom Joad walked down to the neighbor's farm,
Found his family.
They took Preacher Casey and loaded in a car,
And his mother said, "We've got to get away."
His mother said, "We've got to get away."

Now, the twelve of the Joads made a mighty heavy load;
But Grandpa Joad did cry.
He picked up a handful of land in his hand,
Said: "I'm stayin' with the farm till I die.
Yes, I'm stayin' with the farm till I die."

They fed him short ribs and coffee and soothing syrup;
And Grandpa Joad did die.
They buried Grandpa Joad by the side of the road,
Grandma on the California side,
They buried Grandma on the California side.

They stood on a mountain and they looked to the west,
And it looked like the promised land.
That bright green valley with a river running through,
There was work for every single hand, they thought,
There was work for every single hand.

The Joads rolled away to the jungle camp,
There they cooked a stew.
And the hungry little kids of the jungle camp
Said: "We'd like to have some, too."
Said: "We'd like to have some, too."

Now a deputy sheriff fired loose at a man,
Shot a woman in the back.
Before he could take his aim again,
Preacher Casey dropped him in his track, poor boy,
Preacher Casey dropped him in his track.

They handcuffed Casey and they took him in jail;
And then he got away.
And he met Tom Joad on the old river bridge,
And these few words he did say, poor boy,
These few words he did say.

"I preached for the Lord a mighty long time,
Preached about the rich and the poor.
Us workin' folkses, all get together,
'Cause we ain't got a chance anymore.
We ain't got a chance anymore."

Now, the deputies come, and Tom and Casey ran
To the bridge where the water run down.
But the vigilante thugs hit Casey with a club,
They laid Preacher Casey on the ground, poor Casey,
They laid Preacher Casey on the ground.

Tom Joad, he grabbed that deputy's club,
Hit him over the head.
Tom Joad took flight in the dark rainy night,
And a deputy and a preacher lying dead, two men,
A deputy and a preacher lying dead.

Tom ran back where his mother was asleep;
He woke her up out of bed.
An' he kissed goodbye to the mother that he loved,
Said what Preacher Casey said, Tom Joad,
He said what Preacher Casey said.

"Ever'body might be just one big soul,
Well it looks that a-way to me.
Everywhere that you look, in the day or night,
That's where I'm a-gonna be, Ma,
That's where I'm a-gonna be.

Wherever little children are hungry and cry,
Wherever people ain't free.
Wherever men are fightin' for their rights,
That's where I'm a-gonna be, Ma.
That's where I'm a-gonna be."

Men walkin' 'long (http://www.brucespringsteen.net/songs/TheGhostOfTomJoad.html) the railroad tracks
Goin' someplace there's no goin' back
Highway patrol choppers comin' up over the ridge
Hot soup on a campfire under the bridge
Shelter line stretchin' round the corner
Welcome to the new world order
Families sleepin' in their cars in the southwest
No home no job no peace no rest

The highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
Searchin' for the ghost of Tom Joad

He pulls prayer book out of his sleeping bag
Preacher lights up a butt and takes a drag
Waitin' for when the last shall be first and the first shall be last
In a cardboard box 'neath the underpass
Got a one-way ticket to the promised land
You got a hole in your belly and gun in your hand
Sleeping on a pillow of solid rock
Bathin' in the city aqueduct

The highway is alive tonight
But where it's headed everybody knows
I'm sittin' down here in the campfire light
Waitin' on the ghost of Tom Joad

Now Tom said "Mom, wherever there's a cop beatin' a guy
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
Where there's a fight 'gainst the blood and hatred in the air
Look for me Mom I'll be there
Wherever there's somebody fightin' for a place to stand
Or decent job or a helpin' hand
Wherever somebody's strugglin' to be free
Look in their eyes Mom you'll see me."

The highway is alive tonight
But nobody's kiddin' nobody about where it goes
I'm sittin' downhere in the campfire light
With the ghost of old Tom Joad

I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. A dollar buys a nickel's worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter, punks are running wild in the street, there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat. We sit watching our TV's while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes as if that's the way it's supposed to be! We know things are bad, worse than bad. They're crazy, it's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in our house and slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller and all we say is: "Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms, let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone!" Well, I'm not going to leave you alone. I want you to get mad. I don't want you to protest, I don't want you to riot, I don't want you to write to your congressman, I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad!
You've got to say: "I'm a human being, godammit! My life has value!"

Σκόνη, πέτρες, λάσπη - Δημήτρης Πουλικάκος & Εξαδάκτυλος


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xF4HRjhAuxg

Σκόνη, πέτρες, λάσπη
Όλη μέρα στο γιαπί
Ουρά στο λεωφορείο
Και τα ψώνια σε σακούλα πλαστική

Μουρμούρα η γυναίκα
Κι ο μπόμπιρας στο λούνα παρκ την Κυριακή
Πενήντα ώρες τη βδομάδα
Για δυο πιάτα φασουλάδα λαδερή

Αχ, αγωνίες, ιδρώτες
Δεν αντέχω άλλο, ρε παιδιά
Ψάχνω να βρω μια λύση ριζική
Μα όλα στον ορίζοντα τα ίδια και τα ίδια
Κι ελπίδες μια απάτη μακρινή

Με την ψυχή στο στόμα
Μέρα νύχτα να ανασάνω δε μπορώ
Πριν φανεί ο ήλιος: "Μάλιστα, διατάξτε, αφεντικό"
Και κάθε εισπνοή μου καυσαέρια, αναθυμιάσεις και μπετό
Τι να πω δεν ξέρω, μου φαίνεται πως έχω πυρετό

Αχ, αγωνίες, ιδρώτες
Δεν αντέχω άλλο, ρε παιδιά
Ψάχνω να βρω μια λύση ριζική
Μα όλα στον ορίζοντα τα ίδια και τα ίδια
Κι ελπίδες μια απάτη μακρινή

Paper Planes - M.I.A. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.I.A._(artist))


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__HQGvSqZ5I

I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border, I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make them all day
I get one down in a second if you wait

Sometimes I feel sitting on trains
Every stop I get to I'm clocking that game
Everyone's a winner now we're making our fame
Bona fide hustler, making my name

All I want to do is BANG BANG BANG BANG!
And KA-CHING!
And take your money

Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bombs
Running when we hit them
Lethal poison through their system

No one on the corner has swagger like us
Hit me on my burner, prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going to hell just pumping that gas

M.I.A.
Third world democracy
Yeah, I got more records than the K.G.B.
So, uh, no funny business

Some, some, some I, some I murder
Some I, some I let go
Some, some, some I, some I murder
Some I, some I let go



"Paper Planes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_Planes)" is a song written and produced by alternative hip hop artist M.I.A. for her second studio album, Kala (2007). The song was co-produced by Diplo and Switch. Its backing track is a sample from the 1982 song "Straight to Hell" by The Clash, while the chorus is based on that of the 1992 Wreckx-n-Effect song "Rump Shaker".[...]
The song and a special remixed version of it featured in the film Slumdog Millionaire, as well as its soundtrack. [...]
"Paper Planes" also appeared in the trailer for Michael Moore's documentary Capitalism: A Love Story.[...]
When interviewed M.I.A. said the song was partly inspired by her long wait for a US visa application, sometimes fancifully called a "paper plane". She suggested that it ironically satirises some people's attitudes towards immigrants. "It's about people driving taxicabs all day and living in a shitty apartment and 'appearing' really threatening to society. But not being so. Because, by the time you’ve finished working a 20-hour shift, you’re so tired you [just] want to get home to the family". She added that she felt that listeners could choose how to interpret the gunshots and cash register ringing in the song's chorus. "You can either apply it on a street level and go, oh, you’re talking about somebody robbing you and saying I’m going to take your money. But, really, it could be a much bigger idea: someone’s selling you guns and making money. Selling weapons and the companies that manufacture guns — that’s probably the biggest moneymaker in the world." M.I.A has also suggested, "People could say, Oh my God, this song is so violent, but at the same time, there was a war in Iraq. I felt like certain people made so much money from selling ammunition and military weapons and stuff, and killed a million people, and it wasn't an issue that was raised."


M.I.A said (http://www.thefader.com/2007/08/07/video-interview-mia-jimmy/) about Paper Planes:


[The sample of the gun reloading and then the cash register ringing] was a joke. I was having this stupid visa problem and I didn’t know what it was, aside from them thinking that I might to fly a plane into the Trade Center—which is the only reason that they would put me through this. I actually recorded that in Brooklyn, in Bed-Stuy. I was thinking about living there, waking up every morning—it’s such an African neighborhood. I was going to get patties at my local and just thinking that really the worst thing that anyone can say [to someone these days] is some shit like: ”What I wanna do is come and get your money.” People don’t really feel like immigrants or refugees contribute to culture in any way. That they’re just leeches that suck from whatever. So in the song I say: 'All I wanna do is [sound of gun shooting and reloading, cash register opening] and take your money'. I did it in sound effects. It’s up to you how you want to interpret. America is so obsessed with money, I’m sure they’ll get it.

I got my wife a charge card

Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card

All You Need Is Cash (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_You_Need_Is_Cash)


All You Need Is Cash (also known as The Rutles) is a 1978 television film that traces (in mockumentary style) the career of a fictitious British rock group called The Rutles. As TV Guide described it, the group's resemblance to The Beatles is "purely – and satirically – intentional."
...
According to commentary on the DVD, George Harrison showed Idle a rough cut of the Beatles produced film that would later become into the epic Beatles Anthology documentary. As a result, All You Need is Cash has an Anthology feel to it, though it would be 17 years before the latter was completed.
...
Eric Idle as Dirk McQuickly / Narrator / Stanley J. Krammerhead III,Jr., occasional visiting professor of applied narcotics at the University of Please Yourself, California * John Halsey as Barry Wom (Barrington Womble) * Ricky Fataar as Stig O'Hara * Neil Innes as Ron Nasty * Michael Palin as Eric Manchester, Rutle Corp. Press Agent / Lawyer * George Harrison as The Interviewer * Bianca Jagger as Martini McQuickly * John Belushi as Ron Decline, the most feared promoter in the world * Dan Aykroyd as Brian Thigh, ex-record producer who turned down the Rutles * Gilda Radner as Mrs. Emily Pules * Bill Murray as Bill Murray the K. * Gwen Taylor as Mrs. Iris Mountbatten / Chastity * Ron Wood as Hell's Angel * Terence Bayler as Leggy Mountbatten * Henry Woolf as Arthur Sultan, the Surrey Mystic * Ollie Halsall as Leppo, the "fifth Rutle" * Mick Jagger as Himself * Paul Simon as Himself * Roger McGough as Himself

Get The Money - Goran Bregovic featuring Iggy Pop


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2Ncf3OtIIU

Hey lucky people, North and South
This is your leader, I'm called "the mouth"
We're gonna play a game that's funny
Get the, get the, get the money

Money, money, money, money, money
Money, money

Walking on the beach, all disenchanted
Blackness in my heart
Anything they want now, they can't stop me, energy goes dead.
Riviera buildings, high, depressing
Look like cookie boxes
In my heart a hurricane is blowing
In my head a clock ticks.
Tic-tac

Get the money, Mr. Potato
Get the money, pay the Eskimo
Money, money, money, money, money

ABC
Schoolboys, schoolgirls, don't make funny
Take a deep breath, get the money

Money, money, money, money, money

A lot of neigbourhood, concrete and windows
Up here on the mountain
I wonder if somebody sees me walking
I could hide in that fountain.
Pretty little girl, I like to know her, coming this way
Back in school, I can't believe that I could not obey

Get the money, Mr. Potato
Get the money, pay the Eskimo
Money, money, money, money, money

Crawl on your belly, bust your skull
There's the money, real as hell
William Tell

Money, money, money, money, money
Money, money

I met an actor, river speed boat
He made crabby movies
Robin Maxwell had a yacht
But it didn't die so groovy

Me, I confess, I like to swim and
watch the telly, my news
I've been hanging 'round the beach
But the money pays my kwanos

Get the money, Mr. Potato
Get the money, pay the Eskimo
Money, money, money, money, money,

It's kind of like a fortress, it's kind of like a tomb
Sitting with your money in a near dark room

Feels like a discharge, feels like a death
Feels like a taste of dying breath

Feels like a toad, feels like a frog
Feels like a serpent, all night long

The Great Deception - Van Morrison


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEYbuvGctNM

Did you ever hear about the great deception
Well the plastic revolutionaries take the money & run
Have you ever been down to love city
Where they rip you off with a smile
And it don't take a gun

Don't it hurt so bad in love city
Don't it make you not wanna bother at all
And don't they look so self righteous
When they pin you up against the wall

Did you ever, ever see the people
With the teardrops in their eyes
I just can't stand it, stand it no how
Living in this world of lies

Did you ever hear about the rock & roll singer
Got three or four Cadillacs
Saying power to the people, dance to the music
Wants you to pat him on the back

Have you ever heard about the great Rembrandt
Have you ever heard about how he could pain't
And he didn't have enough money for his brushes
And they thought it was rather quaint

But you know it is no use repeating
And you know it is no use to think about it
'Cause when you stop to think about it
You do not need it

Have you ever heard about the great Hollywood motion picture actor
Who knew more than they did
And the newspapers didn't cover the story
Just decided to keep it hid

Somebody started saying it was an inside job
Whatever happened to him?
Last time they saw him down on the Bow'ry
With his lip hanging off an old rusty bottle of gin

Have you ever heard about the so-called hippies
Down on the far side of the tracks
They take the eyeballs straight out of your head
Say son, kid, do you want your eyeballs back

Did you ever see the people
With the teardrops in their eyes
Just can't stand it no how
Living in this world of lies

Σκάσε και κολύμπα - Σπυριδούλα


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3X8pP-4xTQ

Φάμπρικα η παγίδα, μπες στην αλυσίδα
δέκα ώρες θα 'σαι μηχανή
Είσαι το κορόιδο, βίδωνε μια βίδα
η σκλαβιά αυτή θέλει υπομονή.

Άλλα σου 'χαν τάξει, κάνε καμιά φτιάξη
να βρεις πως θα πιάσεις την καλή
Λεύτερη η πατρίδα, σκόνη η ελπίδα
των εμπόρων η χρυσή εποχή.

Πας εκεί που πήγα, πας εκεί που πήγα
χάρες δεν υπάρχουν στη ζωή
Σκάσε και κολύμπα, σκάσε και κολύμπα
Είναι μακριά η Αμερική.

Ένοπλη ληστεία, τα λεφτά στους σάκους
μόνο που δεν είναι στην T.V.
Κόκκινες γραβάτες φόρεσες στους μπάτσους
ο ήρωας για μια νύχτα είσαι συ.

Η καλή σου η χώρα τα φροντίζει όλα
τσάμπα ο ύπνος τσάμπα το φαΐ
Έξοδος κινδύνου μ' έκπληξη στο τέρμα
πόρτα και καρέκλα ηλεκτρική.

Πας εκεί που πήγα, πας εκεί που πήγα
δε σε σώνει χάρη ή προσευχή
Σκάσε και κολύμπα, σκάσε και κολύμπα
Τώρα είναι κοντά η Αμερική.

Βλέπεις ότι είδα, βλέπεις ότι είδα
ξύρισμα κεφάλι και καρποί
Σκάσε και κολύμπα, σκάσε και κολύμπα
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική.

Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική

Μέσα στ' όνειρό της το τρελό
το πυρακτωμένο σου ουρλιαχτό
Και θα χαθείς.

Μη ζητάς πολλά, δε σε παίρνει πια
άνοιξε τα μάτια τελευταία φορά
Και θα τη δεις.

Την ηλεκτρική της μοναξιά
την ηλεκτρική της αγκαλιά.

Μη ζητάς πολλά, δε σε παίρνει πια
άνοιξε τα μάτια τελευταία φορά
Και θα τη δεις.

Ούτε τέλος έχει ούτε αρχή
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική
Σ' έχει αγκαλιά η Αμερική...

και τι με νοιάζει εμένα
δεν είμαι με κανέναν.
Σου λέω καλά της κάνανε
γιατί μας προκαλούσε...
γεμάτη εκατομμύρια, ενώ κι ο Θεός πεινούσε!

Περαστικοί, αδιάφορα,

Του διευθυντή της οι κοιλιές

"στα τέτοια μου" ψιθύρισε

«Άντε και καλή τύχη μάγκες!»

Στο μπάτσο βλέπεις πέρασε μονάχα η κοροϊδία,

Τα τέρατα δικάστηκαν με μάρτυρα την πείνα,
αποκλεισμένα μια ζωή σε ακούσια καραντίνα.

Άντε... και καλή τύχη μάγκες!

The Priests of the Golden Bull - Buffy Sainte-Marie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffy_Sainte-Marie)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E47XSkLxt8w

Who brought the bomb wrapped up in business cards
And stained with steak?
Who hires a maid to wash his money?
Who keeps politicians on the take?
Who puts outspoken third-worlders in jail
Just to shut them down?
Oh the lies vary from place to place but the truth is still the same,
Even in this town

Money junkies all over the world
Trample us on their way to the bank
They run in every race
Windigo

Third-worlders see it first:
The dynamite, the dozers, the cancer and the acid rain
The corporate caterpillars come into our backyards
And turn the world to pocket change
Reservations are the nuclear frontline;
Uranium poisoning kills
We're starving in a handful of gluttons
We're drowning in their gravy spills

Their tongues are silver forks
There's a lack of wisdom,
You can hear it on their breath
Windigo

It's delicate confronting these priests of the golden bull
They preach from the pulpit of the bottom line
Their minds rustle with million dollar bills
You say Silver burns a hole in your pocket
And Gold burns a hole in your soul
Well, uranium burns a hole in forever
It just gets out of control

There was a crooked man who walked a crooked mile
He raised a crooked sixpence to hide a crooked style
He won a crooked vote and smiled a crooked smile
Windigo

Their tongues are silver forks
There's a lack of wisdom,
You can hear it on their breath
Windigo



The Wendigo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigo) (also known as Windigo, Weendigo, Windago, Waindigo, Windiga, Witiko, Wihtikow, and numerous other variants) is a mythical creature appearing in the mythology of the Algonquian people. It is a malevolent cannibalistic spirit which can transform into humans, or which could possess humans. Those who indulged in cannibalism were at particular risk, and the legend appears to have reinforced this practice as a taboo.
...
At the same time, Wendigos were embodiments of gluttony, greed, and excess; never satisfied after killing and consuming one person, they were constantly searching for new victims. In some traditions, humans who became overpowered by greed could turn into Wendigos; the Wendigo myth thus served as a method of encouraging cooperation and moderation.

Poor Millionaire - Gregory Isaacs


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_jCRfPjGok


Ain't got a penny in my pocket
But I feel like a millionaire
I feel so fine
Now that my woman is near

Maybe we won't find it easy
But still I take good care
'Cause I never ever give a man
More than he can bear

Ain't got no shoe upon my feet
But still I'm dancing
There ain't no food to eat
But music plays

We'll get along

Poor and Clean - Gregory Isaacs


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biiCeCRuieQ

So many years I've been slaving in your factory
Never had a chance to talk with the Boss

And for so long I've been living in this community
When no one you might think, yet I've paid the cost
No one you might think, no, I've paid the cost

But I would rather to live poor and clean
Than to live rich in corruption
I said that I, I' ve got to live clean
I said I wanna be clean
Can' t you see what I mean

Wanna be strong all day long
I would rather to live poor and clean
Than rich in corruption
I wanna be clean
Can' t you see what I mean

A rich man's heaven is a poor man's hell

Money Talks - J.J. Cale & Christine Lakeland


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O1xP9W_PIU

Money talks, it'll tell you a story
Money talks, says strange things
Money talks very loudly
You'd be surprised the friends you can buy with small change

They say it's the root of all evil
They say gold is the king
Money talks, you'd better believe it
All that gold don't mean a thing

Rich people, hear those pockets jingle
Spare change, hear the down-and-outers cry
Money talks, tip-toe up behind you
Steal what they can, off the cuff or on the sly

Money talks
Money talks

That makes you uncomfortable?
Fuck you and the Range Rover you drove in on

Fuck your Saab convertable
And fuck your twice weekly trips to the analyst
Stupid mutha fuck

Fuck the Hamptons
The fly infested south of France

so why don't you just.... die?

Choke to death on your damn designer bagel from Balducci's
Low cholesterol, naturally

Fuck your big ol' Sunday New York Times
Fuck the Wall Street Journal
And Newsweek
And the lot
Including Nation, Village Voice, Guardian and the rest
Stupid set of priviliged mutha fuckers
Think it's fashionable to have an alternative view
An alternative view

And fuck, if you can
Your pencil thin, Evian drinking, calorie counting, caffeine limiting, sodium spearing, nutrasweet sweetening, rear view mirror preening, carrot nibbling bunny
Go drown in a lake of Diet Coke, fucker

Piss on your Paulo and your Pavarotti,
Fuck all that shit you call music and pretend to enjoy

Oh go sit on your ski rug,
Money talks, you little pussy,
You let your politically correct pals know,

You dirty asshole

And your idea of multiculturalism
Japanese restaurant on Monday,
Indian on Tuesday,
And on Wednesday, Caribbean,
Not too spicy, please

Well, I got stash on stash and it ain't novo cash.
Money's in my family for generations,
My great great great grandfather made the bag,
Selling European slaves in Africa

Dumb fuck.

Δολάριο δολάριο (Ο σερίφης) - Μέμη Σπυράτου & Δάφνη Ζούνη

Στίχοι: Κ.Χ. Μύρης / Μουσική: Γιάννης Μαρκόπουλος / Δίσκος: Διάλειμμα - 1972

Ξεκίνησα απ' τη Σέριφο
δέκα χρονών παιδάκι
και μπήκα σε μαγέρικο
στο μακρινό Κεντάκι

Δολάριο δολάριο
μαθαίνεις το τροπάριο

Η ποτοαπαγόρευση
με βρήκε στη Βοστόνη
κατόπιν στην απόβαση
κατέλαβα τη Βόννη*

Δολάριο δολάριο
δεν άλλαξα τροπάριο

Σαν τέλειωσε ο πόλεμος
με κάνανε σερίφη
κι οι συγγενείς στη Σέριφο
μου στείλανε και νύφη

Δολάριο δολάριο
με το παλιό τροπάριο

Μου δώσανε και σύνταξη
την ώρα που σας γράφω
να μου εξασφαλίσετε
στη Σέριφο και τάφο

Δολάριο δολάριο
να πείτε και τροπάριο
να πείτε και τροπάριο
δολάριο δολάριο


*τη γερμανική Βόννη (http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/Βόννη)· η Βόνη (http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/Βόνη_Ηρακλείου) είναι στην Πεδιάδα, κοντά στο Θραψανό. ;-)

Οι φόροι και τα κόμματα φέραν αυτή την κρίση
που κάνανε τον άνθρωπο να μη μπορεί να ζήσει

Κι όλο τη φτώχεια πολεμά για να την αδικήσει
να βγάλει το ψωμάκι του το σπίτι του να ζήσει

Αλλά κι αυτό αδύνατο για να το κονομήσει
και κάθε μέρα βλαστημά την έρημη την κρίση

Όλος ο κόσμος τα 'χασε κι όλοι παραμιλούνε
και κάθε μέρα βλαστημούν την κρίση που περνούνε

Άιντε να ζήσεις φτώχεια και να πεθάνεις παλιοκρίση

Immigraniada (We comin' rougher) - Gogol Bordello


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oioNZSPqRM

Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time

We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher every time

In corridors full of tear gas
Our destinies jammed every day
Like deleted scenes from Kafka
Flushed down the bureaucratic drain

But if you give me the invitation
To hear the bells of freedom chime
To hell with your double standards
We're coming rougher every time

All those who made it and quickly jaded
To them we got nothing to say
Our immigrada, immigraniada
For them it's Don Quixote's kind of way
But if you give me the invitation
To hear the bells of freedom chime
To hell with your double standards
We're coming rougher every time
We're coming rougher

Frozen eyes, sweaty back
My family's sleeping on a railroad track
All my life I pack/unpack
But man I got to earn this buck
I gotta pay representation
To be accepted in a nation
Where after efforts of a hero
Welcome start again from zero

It's a book of our true stories
True stories that can't be denied
It's more than true it actually happened
We're coming rougher every time
Rougher every time

We're coming rougher every time
Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time
