Sole alla valle e sole alla collina
(sun to the valleys and sun to the hills)
per le campagne non c'è più nessuno
(but in the countryside there is no one left)
Addio addio amore. Io vado via
(goodbye, goodbye my love. I'm leaving)
Amara terra mia...amara e bella
(My bitter earth. Bitter and beautiful)
Cieli infiniti e volti come pietra
(Infinite skies and faces like stone)
man'incallite ormai senza speranza
(calloused hands, already hopeless)
Addio Addio Amore
Io vado via
Amara terra Mia
Amara e be..e..e..e..lla
Tra gl'uliveti è nata già la luna
(The moon is already born between the olive branches ~ meaning it's already late, party's over)
Un bimbo piange allatta a un seno magro
(A baby cries at a withered breast)
Addio Addio Amore
Io vado via
Amara Terra mia
Amara e be..e..lla.
Amara e be..e..lla.

Shimmy shammy contra-blammy
Sammy had one in pyjamis
Got a little shiner when he haggled with a shriner
Shaker baker, oh go make her
Quaker undertaker
When he jumps, he is a Laker
oh lord, please don't forsake her!
Skipping ripping maybe take a sip
and let the swallow fill the hollow
Gorgeous glow to follow
Satan was sated, I waited for fate then
Fate don't show your face, peace can't keep the pace
Silly human race, but still holier than thou ~
Tiny lower case, silly little humans!
Why don't we darn our souls to make them whole again?
Why don't we just thread a needle, patch our souls and make amends?
Uh oh!

And There I Thought

Her love, he was a sailor - took boats up north and towards the equator
She would come with him sometimes ~ traveller adventurer
Her love at sea now, her | belly grows ~ til he comes | home
He put his hand on her belly and said ~ keep this safe for me, keep your self safe
she went ashore and then the phone | rang ~
And then he was gone (keep yourself safe) and he was gone ~~~~
And there I thought all I had to worry about was the rain
In the eyes of a child ~ sun sea wind and shadows play
click and clack ~ the train comes back ~ the boy grows into a | sailor

Bronty
03:26
|
|||
|
A child of God with potential untold
she comes to earth with a mission to unfold.
Marks on her face which will bring her disgrace
from the kids on the playground
who laugh at her face.
Mom and Dad give refuge from the pain
caused by the judgements for not
looking just the same.
They bring her to a doctor with tenderness and care
who takes away those marks,
as if they weren't there.
The ridicule, the madness, the unforgiven glare
this all now avoided to make her life fair.
Because we seem different,
sometimes we cannot see
and the pain left inside us is from our society.
To see who we are please shun the disguise
see the spirit in the body,
the soul through the eyes.
For we are all special, created with love
we all have our markings given from above.
My sex is a birthmark
my preference is not picked
I didn't come here to get ridiculed and kicked.
I will stand up and be the best that I can be
accept me as I am and don't give me therapy.
For the thing I did not choose,
I cannot change if I'm queer.
God made me this way though the purpose is not clear.
We are all like Bronty,
perfect from the start
with God given markings to set us apart.
If I am not like you,
and you are not like me,
the difference between us is only what you see.
Find out who you are and then you'll know me
for we are all made from the same family.

All Good Things
03:03
|
|||
|
All good things come in threes
see your fortune in the coffee cream or in the tea cup
it's the seven year itch for the cat times nine
if they're black cross your path ~ and your break out in a sweat the sky will
Fall on your henny penny head
Knock on wood, test the wind, break a leg and say a prayer
Rabbit foot horseshoe, wishing on the first star mind the
Ladders and the cracks, everything thirteen
in the mouth of the wolf, and we hope he bites
In culo alla balena speriamo che non caga!
"Cingulu cingulu ja 'ppè via
....l'occhi rossi lu viria
si nun era 'ppè gamme torte....
Cingulu cingulu era morto...."

Earth Slows Down
04:17
|
|||
|
Earth slows down in winter / gravestones frozen solid
Winter enters all corners / the winds in her arms, tucking in her arms
Moon and the earth are slowly drifting away from each other
The soul will expand in its change from life to colour, full colour
Earth slows down in winter / gravestones frozen solid
Waiting for the last breath / the change frees the soul, the soul at last
