Insomnio Composer(s): J.L. Borges; Pedro Aznar Performer(s): Pedro Aznar
De fierro de encorvados tirantes de enorme fierro tiene que ser la noche para que no la revienten y la desfonden las muchas cosas que mis abarrotados ojos han visto las duras cosas que insoportablemente la pueblan
Mi cuerpo ha fatigado los niveles, las temperaturas, las luces en vagones de largo ferrocarril en un banquete de hombres que se aborrecen en el filo mellado de los suburbios en una quinta calurosa de estatuas húmedas en la noche repleta donde abundan el caballo y el hombre
El universo de esta noche tiene la vastedad del olvido y la precisión de la fiebre
En vano quiero distraerme del cuerpo y del desvelo de un espejo incesante que lo prodiga y que lo acecha y de la casa que repite sus patios y del mundo que sigue hasta un despedazado arrabal de callejones donde el viento se cansa y de barro torpe
En vano espero las desintegraciones y los símbolos que preceden al sueño
Sigue la historia universal los rumbos minuciosos de la muerte en las caries dentales la circulación de mi sangre y de los planetas
(He odiado el agua crapulosa de un charco he aborrecido en el atardecer el canto del pájaro)
Las fatigadas leguas incesantes del suburbio del Sur leguas de pampa basurera y obscena, leguas de execración no se quieren ir del recuerdo
Lotes anegadizos, ranchos en montón como perros, charcos de plata fétida soy el aborrecible centinela de esas colocaciones inmóviles Alambre, terraplenes, papeles muertos, sobras de Buenos Aires
Creo esta noche en la terrible inmortalidad ningún hombre ha muerto en el tiempo, ninguna mujer, ningún muerto porque esta inevitable realidad de fierro y de barro tiene que atravesar la indiferencia de cuantos estén dormidos o muertos -aunque se oculten en la corrupción y en los siglos- y condenarlos a vigilia espantosa
Toscas nubes color borra de vino infamarán el cielo amanecerá en mis párpados apretados
Never Say Die Composer(s): Geezer Butler;
Tony Iommi; Ozzy Osbourne; Bill Ward Performer(s): Black Sabbath; Baltimoore; Doug Bennett
People going nowhere, taken for a ride Looking for the answers that they know inside Searching for a reason, looking for a rhyme Snow White's mirror said "partners in crime!"
Don't they ever have to worry? Don't you ever wonder why? It's a part of me that tells you Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die Never, never, never say die again
Sunday's satisfaction, Monday's home and dry Truth is on the doorstep, welcome in the lie All dressed up in sorrow, got no place to go Hold back, 'till it's ready, taking it slow
Don't they ever have to worry? Don't you ever wonder why? It's a part of me that tells you Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die Never, never, never say die again
Don't you ever say die Don't you ever say die Never say die
Panic, silver lining, writing's on the wall Children get together, you can save us all Future's on the corner, throwing us a die Slow down, turn around, everything's fine
There's no need to have a reason There's no need to wonder why It's a part of me that tells you Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die Never, never, never say die again
Insieme A Te Sto Bene Composer(s): Lucio Battisti; Mogol Audio 2 Performer(s): Lucio Battisti
Che cosa vuoi da me cosa pretendi da me Se è giusto non lo so elementare sì o no La donna è donna e tu una donna sei che importa cosa fai resta qui con me finché vuoi che da mangiare c'è
Insieme a te sto bene fra le tue braccia così adesso non parlare anch'io sai non ho avuto più di quel che tu mi dai.
Tu prima eri sola il tempo corre e vola oh non spiegarmi chi sei perché vai sempre bene per me La donna è donna e tu una donna sei che importa cosa fai resta qui con me finche vuoi che freddo non avrai mai

I'm just as blue as I can be Since Susie said goodbye to me My life is a failure, I see And she won't be my gal No mo', no mo', no mo', no mo' - no mo'

Never Learn To Cry French Title: Mon Monde N'est Pas Vrai Composer(s): Napier-Bell; Wickham Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
You're living in a dream mist made of pink perfume You hide behind the mask of Sunday afternoons You'll never see the real world, never find out why
You live a life of feathers flying in a cloud Your mind is like a jungle overgrown with flowers You'll never see the real life, never learn to cry
You're floating through the lost world of other people's dreams You see the world through diamonds made from plasticine You never see the real things, never find out why
Your thoughts are bubbles bursting out of golden foam You're sheltered from the sunlight by making love your home You never see the real life, never learn to cry
You're living in a dream mist made of pink perfume You live a life of feathers flying in a cloud You're floating through the lost world of other people's dreams Your thoughts are bubbles bursting out of golden foam You're sheltered from the sunlight...
Inside Looking Out Composer(s): Alan Parsons; Eric Woolfson Performer(s): The Alan Parsons Project
To touch the sky A dreamer must be Someone who has more imagination than me
To reach the stars A dreamer must fly Somehow he must live more of a lifetime than I For sands of time won't wait And it may be too late
Now is the hour and moment Don't let the chance go by Your ship is sailing with the high tide And all your dreams are on the inside On the inside looking out, on the inside looking out Looking out, looking out, looking out
To change the world A dreamer must be Someone who has more determination than me
To free his soul A dreamer must fly Somewhere he must find a better reason than I The hands of time won't wait And we may be too late
Now is the hour and moment Don't let a day pass by Your shipis sailing with the high tide You could be standing on the inside On the inside looking out, on the inside looking out On the inside looking out, on the inside looking out Looking out, looking out, looking out
Never Know Why Composer(s): Bob Daisley; Jake E. Lee; Ozzy Osbourne Performer(s): Ozzy Osbourne
If we're offensive and pose a threat You fear what we represent is a mess You've missed the message that says it all And you'll never know why Oh no you'll never know why

It's just a feeling how we excite You cannot rule everybody in sight But you condemn don't understand And you'll never know why Oh no you'll never know why
We rock rock rock We rock rock rock We rock rock rock You'll never know why We rock
I leave you cold and in disgust Don't try to tame me you'll eat my dust I know that you know not what you do That's why you'll never know why Oh no you'll never know why
We rock rock rock We rock rock rock We rock rock rock You'll never know why We rock rock rock We rock rock rock We rock rock rock You'll never know why We rock

All the places I've been make it hard to begin to enjoy life again on the inside but I mean to Take a walk around the block and be glad that I've got me some time to be in from the outside and inside with you
I'm sitting on the corner feeling glad Got no money coming in but I can't be sad That was the best cup of coffee I ever had And I won't worry about a thing because we've got it made here on the inside, outside so far away
And we'll laugh and we'll sing get someone to bring our friends here for tea in the evening Old Jeffrey makes three Take a walk in the park does the wind in the dark sound like music to you? Well I'm thinking it does to me
Can you cook, can you sew well, I don't want to know That is not what you need on the inside to make the time go
Counting lambs, counting sheep we will fall into sleep and we awake to a new day of living and loving you so
