Who are you?
“You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away”
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won’t save her from herself
Engana-te. Engana-te as vezes que quiseres.
Bebe as cervejas que quiseres e festeja, porque as coisas a fingir não duram para sempre.
Who’s that kid in the back of the room?
Who’s that kid in the back of the room?
He’s setting all his papers on fire
Where did he get that crazy smile?
We all think he’s really weird
We never talk to him
He never looks quite right
He laughs at us
We just beat him up
What he sees escapes our sight
We never see him with the girls
He’s talking to himself again
Why doesn’t he want tons of friends?
Says he’s bored when we hang around
We never talk to him
He never looks quite right
He laughs at us
We just beat him up
What he sees escapes our sight
We’re all planning our careers
He says we’re growing old…
I’m worse at what I do best and for this gift I feel blessed
Look at that
Here she comes
Here comes that girl again
One of the cutest since I don’t know when
But she don’t notice me when I pass
She goes with all the guys from outta my class
But that can’t stop me from thinkin’ to myself
She’s sure fine lookin’, man, she’s something else
Look at that
‘Cross the street
There’s a car built just for me
To own a car would be a luxury
But right now I can’t afford the gas
A brand new convertible is out of my class
But that can’t stop me from thinkin’ to myself
That car’s fine lookin’, man, it’s something else
Hey, look at that
Just wait and see
Worked hard and saved my dough
I buy that car and then I roll up with Joe
Get me that girl and we go ridin’ around
We look real sharp with the wide top down
I keep on dreamin’ and thinkin’ to myself
When it all comes true, man, that’s something else
Hey, look at that
What’s all this?
Never thought I’d do this before
But here I’m a-knockin’ on her door
My car’s out front and it’s all mine
It’s a ‘41 job not a ‘59
I got that girl and I’m thinkin’ to myself
She’s sure fine lookin’, man, she’s something else
All the stars may shine bright
All the clouds may be white
But when you smile
Oh how i feel so good
That I can hardly wait
To hold you
Enfold you
Never enough
Render your heart to me
All mine, you have to be
All mine, you have to be
So don’t resist
We shall exist
Until the day
Until the day, I die
All mine
You have to be
Portishead- All mine
The day world turned Day-Glo

1978
Só sei que nada sei. E isso chega.
Não sei qual é o sentimento, ainda inexpresso,
Que subitamente, como uma sufocação, me aflige
O coração que, de repente,
Entre o que vive, se esquece.
Não sei qual é o sentimento
Que me desvia do caminho,
Que me dá de repente
Um nojo daquilo que seguia,
Uma vontade de nunca chegar a casa,
Um desejo de indefinido.
Um desejo lúcido de indefinido.
Quatro vezes mudou a ’stação falsa
No falso ano, no imutável curso
Do tempo conseqüente;
Ao verde segue o seco, e ao seco o verde,
E não sabe ninguém qual é o primeiro,
Nem o último, e acabam.
Alvaro de Campos, Clearly-non-Campos!
Aprendi a gostar de poesia como aprendi a gostar de ti, ao ínicio odiava-te. Agora não posso viver sem ti, minha poesia.
