Song For You - Lyrics Thread

translated

Nikolas Asimos

I collapse!


You even took to the streats
You go with the freaks
And you're exterminating me psychologically
And you start with your feministics

Independence you were seeking too
You run with whoever you can reach and whoever happens in your path
Why should I love you then?

I collapse! And can't take it anymore!
I'll fall in love with Papandreou, with Popei, with Zoro!
And I'll never fall in love with a female again!


With a Kniti (youth member of communist party)first, and with a christian,
With a horny muslim
And with a clownish junkie!

Excuses are redundant
And experiences, you had enough of them
Eh, finally, make up your mind what you want

I collapse! You're pushing it too far!
How will I avoid the destined, I've even became a horned one!(cheated upon)
My free love, you ache!


It has become fashion
Who would cripple whom
Era of the wheel/running and of the nuclear
Eh, so I sit and I get beaten then!

But one is the Lion, and all the rest of you are cheese!
I won't put up with another knife strike
Man, where did I find such lad-ness/bravery

I collapse! And can't take it anymore!
I'll fall in love with Papandreou, with Popei, with Zoro
And I'll never fall in love with a female again!


I collapse! And can't take it anymore!
I'll petition Papandreou, to make me a minister
And I'll never fall in love with a female again!

The salvation of the soul


The countryside's mornings
We will find them again
into eachothers arms, in bed
And it doesn't matter that so soon
We will be looking without seeking something

The certainty's materials
are sweet words written in tapes
For those things that came so late
But heart took them with open palms

The salvation of the soul is a very big thing
Like a little recreational trip with a hidden trauma

A solitaire beach and that we would lay there our lives' pace
And it doesn't matter that so many kisses
Before they become old, the wave will take them

And there at the end of the line, we would give away our old pieces
To those things that were so small
But who threw shadows to look like palaces

The salvation of the soul is a very big thing
Like a little recreational trip with a hidden trauma

The salvation of the soul is a very big thing
Like a little recreational trip with a hidden trauma

negative one, mudvayne.

Losses, losers and more, gain of life's pleasures cohorts listen
behind the doors to a life meaningless less than zero in me all my walls
falling down pains aloft misery
I'm sure that the lessons were learned I'm sure that the punishments
went well deserved by the pawn in the plan taste of **** bitterness
walk from me everything systematically

Come on youweretheone youweretheone,
To dredge up **** inside of me in my pointless life of nothing
Tell me what I'm supposed to be
Tell me who I'm supposed to be
Tell me what it takes to ascend
Tell me what it takes to live

Patience, pleasures and rewards, come in due time stare at the sun
I'm bored in a life meaningless soaking up all of me like the cross
you worship life is loss look at me I'm sure that some day we'll wake
up I'm sure that some day we'll wake from the dream
Of success and focus...tunneling to the light glowing deep inside of
me your taunting I wake up

Come on youweretheone youweretheone,
To dredge up **** inside of me in my pointless life of nothing
Tell me what I'm supposed to be
Tell me who I'm supposed to be
Tell me what it takes to ascend
Tell me what it takes to live
Tell me nOW!
Tell me nOW!

Pain misery distress dismal know where depressed idiot failure
In me......calling......loser......man I'm the
Loser......loser.....loser......in me......who I am....in me....

Don't feel sorry don't feel sorry for me
Don't need your sympathy or empathy, don't need your sympathy inside
of me,
Don't need your sympathy or empathy, don't need your sympathy inside
of me,
Don't feel sorry don't feel sorry for me

Come on
I know youweretheone youweretheone
Numb to feelings inside of me why I've seized my vision
Don't need you to tell me who to be
Don't need you to tell me what to be
Don't need you to tell me how to ascend
Don't need you to tell me how to live

Let's go to Adonis for coffee


Wherever you go
You'll always be here
You'll be having the key
And be opening the door

But I'm afraid my baby
That I would go away

Come on, let's go our two for a walk
Let's go to Adonis for a coffee
Where babes go and freaks too
And athletes lay back there
And where a fat (woman) goes
At Sundays to make her stress go away!

And everything seem like a nothing
And circulate unsuspiciously
And you are my longing
My coffee and my cigarettes

Whetever we'll live, we've seen it
Like some scene from another movie
And the whole world my baby can and lives it
Come on I'm buying you coffee at the plaza

Luck Of The Irish, The
John Lennon
Yoko Ono

If you have the luck of the Irish,
You'd be sorry and wish you were dead
You should have the luck of the Irish
And you'd wish you was English instead!

A thousand years of torture and hunger
Drove the people away from their land,
A land full of beauty and wonder
Was raped by the British brigands!

If you could keep voices like flowers
There'd be shamrocks all over the world.
If you could drink dreams like the Irish streams
Then the world would be high as the mountain of mourn

In the Pool they told us the story
How the english divided the land,
Of the pain, the death and the glory
And the poets of auld Eireland

If we could make chains with the morning dew
The world would be like Galway Bay
Let's walk over rainbows like leprechauns
The world would be one big Blarney stone

Why the hell are the English there anyway?
As they kill with God on their side!
Blame it all on the kids and the IRA!
As the bastards commit genocide.

[Q Classic]

ok, this song sucks, but every time i see this "song for you" thread, it reminds me of the title, which is "smile for you".

very irritating anime song, from love hina. it's the kind that makes your brain crawl up the wall while your skin bubbles in putrid horror.

(fan-translated. not by me.)

I will forever Smile, smile for you
Gazing at you from afar
Take good care of this heartbeat of mine
I gently put on the lipstick I've always wanted
I've discovered a self different from the one of the past
But hey, no matter how much a stretch out to reach you
I'm always a couple of centimeters short from your heart
Hey Who is it that you wish to see right now?
I want to be your answer Someday Surely Surely
I will forever Smile, smile for you
I search for you in the skies
Where I count the falling stars
Please Smile, smile for me
Even just for a moment
Take notice of my lonely heart
Now looking down without saying a word
I used to flee when my eyes meet those of another
My heart is brimming and somehow it hurts so much
The passionate feelings sleeping
In my confused heart, hey look, awaken
Hey There's someone I want to see most
Just with that thought I want to become stronger, gentler
I will forever Smile, smile for you
Gazing at you from afar
Take good care of this heartbeat of mine
Occasionally Smile, smile for me too
Don't pretend as if you didn't know
Embrace my lonely heart
That's about to weep whenever the wind blows
I will forever Smile, smile for you
So that these feelings where I think of you
Do reach you
Please Smile, smile for me
Even just for a moment
Take notice of my lonely heart
Now looking down without saying a word

She who walks by


Inside my own wide world as usual,
And all of the sudden I see her walk by

With an Eleutheroudakis bag
And smiling to me

Snails in Stadiou and clovers in Sina
You beautify, my walk, Athens

Lemon trees in Korai
Climbing plants in Zonars

I want to see you
In seclusion/exclusivity


She who walks by
Let us ask her and see where she's going
Let's ask her our destination
Her unknown way to find/meet ours

I ask her what's up
She tells me I'm simply going to my university class
To my dance/fest, to my convention, to my philosophy (class)

Gardens in Benaki
Places of pasture in Skoufa

People buzz around your blossom
Indigo little windows on taxis and the trolleys
Everybody is greeting eachother

She who walks by
Let us ask her and see where she's going
Let's ask her our destination
Her unknown way to meet ours

Snails in Stadiou
and clovers in Sina
You beautify, my walk, Athens

If you don't have something to do
I'm marrying you now
And the spring begins.

Crocodile Rock
Elton John

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were Rocking Round the Clock
we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
Chorus:
Well Croc Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh mama mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
na-na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na
But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
Long nights crying by the record machine
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill the thrills we've got
burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last
Chorus
Well Croc Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh mama mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
na-na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na
I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were Rocking Round the Clock
we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
na-na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na na-na-na-na-na

The boat

A boat, old, a rotten brick
With some sailors, crazy, pirates
It lifts anchor at wild dawn
There are sits, if you want, empty

When it will be getting dark, pou les (???), at the deck
Thousand lights will flare up/turn on, small
In our company the wind will arrive
To whistle us songs of old

Come on, let's untie, let's sail
And I'm sick of them, I can't stand them
To stay up all night, to get drunk
To forget them all here

A boat, old, a rotten brick
unties the ropes and opens sail
It leaves behind it crazy and irrational (~things)
It lifts anchor for far away

We will dawn at the sea
The sun will be coming out
To do plunges
The parrot will be saying
"We got away from them"
And we'll be looking for other shores

Come on, let's untie, let's sail
And I'm sick of them, I can't stand them
To stay up all night, to get drunk
To forget them all here

Getaway Car, Audioslave

The first time I saw you, you were
Chasing down
A cyclone
All alone in the field
With rail yards and clovers
I kept rolling on
Never thought you'd wind up chasing me

Well settle down I won't hesitate
To hit the highway
Before you lay me to waste, no
Settle up and I'll help you find
Something to drive
Before you drive me insane

Your tired of walking
And you loathe the ground
The sideway will barely
Touch your feet and life moves
Too slowly to hold you down
With ringing hands
You take it out on me

Well settle down
I won't hesitate to hit the highway
Before you leave me to waste, no
Settle up and I'll help you find something to drive
Before you drive me insane

get yourself a car, and ride it on the wind

30 Days In The Hole Lyrics
Humble Pie

Roll my tape
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Thirty days...
Anyone doin' that one?
I'm doin' that one

30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole

all right all right all right all right, yeah

Chicago Green, talkin' 'bout Black Lebanese
A dirty room and a silver coke spoon
Give me my release, come on
Black napalese, it's got you weak in your knees
Sneeze some dust that you got buzzed on
You know it's hard to believe

30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
That's what they give you
30 days in the hole
I know

Newcastle Brown, I'm tellin' you, it can sure smack you down
Take a greasy whore and a rollin' dance floor
It's got your head spinnin' round
If you live on the road, well there's a new highway code
You take the urban noise with some dirt with poison
It's gonna lessen your load

30 days in the hole
That's what they give you now
30 days in the hole
Oh, yeah
30 days in the hole
All right, all right
30 days in the hole

What you doin' boy?
You here for 30 days
Get, get, get your long hair cut
And cut out your ways

Black napalese, it got you weak in your knees
Gonna sneeze some dust that you got busted on
You know it's so hard to please
Newcastle Brown can sure smack you down
You take a greasy whore and a rollin' dance floor
You know you're jailhouse-bound

30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
Oh, yeah
30 days in the hole
30 days, 30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole
30 days in the hole

The last tram

I became tipsy and we’re late, but no matter how much I am to blame
Walk (faster) to catch the last tram

Draga droum, the little bell
Draga droum into the little evening
Draga Droum the little bell
To bring us slowly/limply-slowly/limply to our old little joint/house

Very miserable-like, it goes by our youth, the deserted/ill fated
Widen your pace to reach the terminus/end

Draga Droum, and If we find an (empty) sit
You’ll lay back and you’ll like it
Draga Droum and if we find an (empty) sit
A little bit on you to lean ‘cause I’m wasted(very drunk)

We go with trams and others (go) with big/fat taxicabs
For us the dortia (4 on double dices) and the dipla (2 on double dices) and for others the exares (big 6 on double dices)

Draga Droum the little bell
Draga Droum into the little evening
Draga Droum the little bell
Draga Droum, what a pity to be such a little poor (not rich person)

Savopoulos

Politeytis (fake/lying politician who wants to appear valiant)

Those words clenched me like a tweezer, a soul told them yesterday
And a bald, both on the outside and the inside, he was smiling , yes, why should he worry/care


Do you remember when tears overwhelmed your eyes there in exhile
And you were reading Ritsos and ancient Tragedy
Now you brag (=act like a ****!) up there on the balcony/upper terrace
And you talk to the popolo (~populace) like a lifesaver


To the little student girl which has fallen in love with you
I will report/condemn you sneaky politeuti
In vain she wastes, I’ll go and tell her
Her youthful and pure enthusiasm

It which raises/tall and nullifies you
Is my little heart's light which overflows
And what saves you/spares you and gives you the cause/reason
Is that beurocracy is needed to

The first provocateur from all in my life
Is you “lordship” which copies my voice
You (ex)changed my body with furniture and utensils
Like the socialism that suits you/accommodates you

My pleasure to yiaourtona (throw a yogurt at your face) there as you rhetorisize
There when you clap your hands without believing it
You take my truth and you make it a pulp/squash it
From the foot you drag me deep into the soil/ground

To the little student girl which has fallen in love with you
I will report/condemn you sneaky politeuti
In vain she wastes, I’ll go and tell her
Her youthful and pure enthusiasm

Riding With Private Malone Lyrics
David Ball

I was just out of the service thumbing through the classifieds
When an ad that said:"Old Chevy" somehow caught my eye
The lady didn't know the year,or even if it ran
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand

It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn
Thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp
When I pulled the cover off,it took away my breath
What she'd called a Chevy was a sixty six Corvette

I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills
But what a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel
I opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note
The date was nineteen-sixty and this is what he wrote:

He said,"My name is Private Andrew Malone"
"If you're reading this,then I didn't make it home"
"But for every dream that shattered,another one came true"
"This car was once a dream of mine,now it belongs to you"
"And though you may take her and make her your own"
"You'll always be riding with Private Malone"

Well it didn't take me long at all,I had her running good
I love to hear those horses thunder,underneath her hood
I had her shining lika a diamond and I'd put the rag top down
All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her though town

The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right
But it picked up that oldie show,especially late at night
I'd get the feeling sometimes,if I turned real quick I'd see
A soldier riding shotgun in the seat right next to me

It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
Who fought for his country and never made it home
But for every dream that's shattered,another one comes true
This car was once a dream of his,back when it was new
He told me to take her and make her my own
And I was proud to be riding with Private Malone

One night it was raining hard,I took the curve too fast
I still remember much about that fiery crash
Someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out
They didn't get his name but I without a doubt

It was a young man named Private Malone
Who fought for his country and never made it home
But for every dream that's shattered,another one comes true
This car was once a dream of his,back when it was new
I know I wouldn't be here if he hadn't tagged along
That night I was riding with Private Malone
Oh,thank God,I was riding with Private Malone

Karapiperim

Into the City’s small alleys a sweet harem girl
has taken/stolen my heart

Ah, Karapiperim, piperim, piperim
Ah, Karapiperim, aman esmer sekerim
I’ll come tonight to steal you
I can’t take it any more
And I don’t care if they shoot me
right there in the middle of the neighborhood

Ah, Karapiperim, piperim, piperim
Ah, Karapiperim, aman esmer sekerim
Leave behind you at last
all the riches and Ibrahim
I’ll come tonight to steal you
I can’t take it any more
And I don’t care if they shoot me
right there in the middle of the neighborhood


For her two eyes I suffer and I ache
I want to become her slave
A little boat for us two is waiting at the seashore
My sweet harem girl

Ah, Karapiperim, piperim, piperim
Ah, Karapiperim, aman esmer sekerim
Leave behind you at last
all the riches and Ibrahim
I’ll come tonight to steal you
I can’t take it any more
And I don’t care if they shoot me
right there in the middle of the neighborhood
