Esta semana fiz uma das melhores compras da minha vida em termos musicais. Comprei o CD do David Fonseca, o vocalista dos extintos Silence 4. Muito bom! Também comprei um livrito que depois dos exames vou tratar de ler. Sem Destino de Imre Kertesz, prémio Nobel da literatura de 2002. Mas este post é para mostrar uma das letras do CD. Gosto de todas as músicas, mas esta por ter como título "Revolution Edit" despertou-me desde logo a curiosidade!
Então aqui vai...

REVOLUTION EDIT

faces that look familiar
they advertise their illness
on national t.v.
they speak of love

you tune it up and praise the little things
you wait for sales and wish for nothing in between
so you're sitting by the phone, you're waiting for the call
a casting to the show, a ticket to revolutions

we won't let you down
please don't give in
you'll wave a flag
you'll stick a pin

you'll meet the president
and with a little luck
shake hands with god
so don't give up

all those familiar faces
fear it ain't worth dying
if there's no one there to see
if there's no one to

you tune it up and praise the little screen
you hope it can fill all the holes in between
like a decoy to the lies, in line to be surprised
you will be televised starring in the revolution

we won't let you down
please don't give in
you'll wave a flag
you'll stick a pin

you'll meet the president
and with a little luck
shake hands with god
so don't give up
