A PLACE OF CRIES
(Daniele Luttazzi)

Don’t move another step, stop, stay right there
Stop all the traffic now! Let’s clear the air.
You think the world will always be the same.
They make us play ‘cause they don’t care

‘Tis a place of cries, ‘tis not happy
I’m not ready for anything to happen.
That’s not why I’m here. And my life
Is sailing away.

They are to blame for what I am and they know it
Tomorrow they’ll regret what they did today
I know tomorrow and I need to borrow sorrow
Tomorrow’s nothing, you can shove it where you say

’Tis a place of cries, ‘tis not happy
I’m not ready for anything to happen.
That’s not why I’m here. And my life
Is drifting away.

You’ll never hit the jackpot, just don’t get soft
Go on and kick’em in the guts, for Christ’s sake.
Ain’t you surprised to see me here again?
I won’t forget you, won’t you go?

DREAMS COME TRUE
( Daniele Luttazzi )

Girls get naked while you drink a drink.
Girls have sex flying in a plane.
I would do anything for you.
Keep alive your dreams. They come true.

Girls realize when they’re wasting time.
Girls move on still looking bored. Though at
times they go to extremes,
Clients must sit on their hands.

This is gonna be good indeed.
Won’t you buy a drink for the lady?
I hope the plane doesn’t crash. I’d hate to
Have the papers say they found my nude remains in a plane crash.

THE BROKEN HEARTED
( Daniele Luttazzi )

So what becomes of the broken hearted?
I’m going thru something right now. I shop
Everyday. I don’t have a lot of hobbies
So I end up walking around.

I’m trying to act peppy but I can’t get out of bed
In the morning. Heavy duty.
I’ve been waiting for the sun.
-Cup of coffee?- -No- she said.

I’m trying to act peppy but I can’t get out of bed

So what becomes of the goofy crushes?
I’m going thru millions of them.
You know when you feel like even
The simplest task become so big?

I’m trying to act peppy but I can’t get out of bed
In the morning. Heavy duty.
I’ve been waiting for the sun.
-Cup of coffee?- -No- she said.
I’m trying to act peppy but I can’t get out of bed

THREE KIND OF PAPER
( Daniele Luttazzi )

We gonna have to pay for the whole 3 nites.
They don’t rent them to somebody else.
You’re not so used to lose it. -3 kind of paper.-
You’re not so used to lose it. I know how to do it

Everything is happening altogether everywhere at once.

All emotions are wet, never mind how much noise they make
Shiki soku zeku ku soku ze shiki

Let’s think about ourselves.
Shape your life differently.
Late for work, never comb your hair.
You’re not so used to lose it. I know how to do it

I’m afraid I’d slip and fall
Let’s see what happens. Let’s go outside
-You looking scared.- -Put it in my mouth.-
You’re not so used to lose it. I know how to do it.

THE FLOWERS IN SPRING
( Daniele Luttazzi )

I see her guzzling wine at openings when no one sees,
Then flirting with every man in sight.
Her dress is creased
She never lived
Like this at home
She feels free

-At twenty I tried to die, then get back, back to you.
It works, there’s nothing wrong with it
I said I’ll do, I’ll do, I’ll do. -

Love love can come to everyone, love
Can come to everyone.

-You don’t believe in honeymoons, the best things in life are free.
It’s such a nice afternoon. So what will become of me, Daniel?-

The flowers in spring, the Crosby named Bing,
the dolphins that smile ain’t yours, ain’t mine!

Love love can come to everyone, love
Can come to everyone.

TRAVELLING ALONE
( Daniele Luttazzi )

The subway connections and the crosstown taxi.
You always hated travelling alone.
You gonna have to go, you don’t need directions
Bees don’t need directions, that’s why they sting.

Please don’t let it change Please don’t let it change.

Ain’t you tired from the trip
Down and back all in one day?

Too much beauty makes a person faint.
Can’t you feel? Can’t you see?
Set you down and let me work at this
Can’t you see? Can’t you feel?

Run from mean people. Run from gentle people.
The wind blows off. Well, the wind is wrong.
You gonna have to go, you don’t need directions
Your shoes are all over. How many feet do you have?

Please don’t let it change Please don’t let it change.

Ain’t you tired from the trip
Down and back all in one day?

Too much light makes a person blind.
Can’t you feel? Can’t you see?
Set you down and let me work at this
Can’t you see? Can’t you feel?

SCHOOL IS BORING
( Daniele Luttazzi )

School is boring. I hate my friends.
You have to take another look to see
What they are really doing: they hate me.
I’m not out of my mind. Oh, yeah.

I keep saying I’ll change and I want to
I don’t think it’s up to me. I try.
I still dream of living in Mexico.
I don’t know how long I’ve been saying that.

I am going thru things I guess I shouldn’t
It seems fun, but it is not
Life is sort of out of control
I don’t know and I don’t care.

This is boring. I don’t know what to do.
Don’t think I am alive anymore.
Tv’s great, but I think
Stupid things while I watch it.

School is boring. I hate my friends.
You have to take another look to see.

WORDS OF LOVE
( Daniele Luttazzi )

Because the risk of being hurt by love was so frightening to her
she kept a careful distance from everyone for whom she felt anything
Safely out of intimacy’s reach, plenty of room up front

Keep talking to me
Don’t hold your breath
Keep talking to me
Don’t hold your breath

Where do words of love come from?

SOBBING IN SHAME
( Daniele Luttazzi )

She waits to have a quiet talk with him.
-How kind of you to do so!-
She speaks to him very naturally.
She’s kissing ass to get ahead.

I know I’m close to breaking
Down, sobbing in shame.

After cleaning the house they went out shopping.
All the guest having left they went to bed.
A love as pure as a bowl of pain.

I know I’m close to breaking
Down, sobbing in shame.

She’s the one who fills up the room.
-Tell me about yourself.-
-When we broke up, I was grieving.
You know what? Things change.-

I know I’m close to breaking
Down, sobbing in shame.

WET OUT
( Daniele Luttazzi )

She dressed in cheery colors. Orange and pink.
She wished there was some pill she could take.
-Sorry I couldn’t make the party- she said.
-You could invent an explanation.-

There was no one around
Who could explain
Why she felt such pain.
-Hug me. Fuck me.-
Where’s she gonna go?
-Tease me. Please me.-

-It’s pretty wet out, I think we get the car.-
-Were you out with your one and only last night?-

-The joke is still on, huh? Ok, let’s get out.-
She wished there was some guy she could love.
She waited for someone to come pick her up.
This is very beautiful place.

There was no one around who could explain why she felt such pain
-Hug me. Fuck me.- Where’s she gonna go? –Tease me. Please me.-

The street is wide and empty in the flat light.
The town which should have been on her right had gone.

-Middle-class white girls were the rule, not the exception
They tipically had access to illegal abortion.-
- I never sleep the whole night thru.-
