BIG THING / 1988

Big Thing

get it up get it out get it in time
hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing
move it in move it out move up the line
bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing

brothers and sisters let me hear it
get it up get it on get it in time
give me the green light and watch me move it
move it up move it out move up the line
this is temptation power rotation
give me the friction and watch me make it
make it up making out making it slide

so glad you came along
this time you won't be wrong
you love to turn it on
and you're not the only one

brothers and sisters we can take it
shake it up shake it out shake it all the time
give me the suction and we can stick it
lick it up suck it up stick it outside
this is temptation (station) power rotation (to station)
give me the playlist and watch me eat it
eat it up beat it up beat it in time

so glad you came along
this time you won't be wrong
you love to turn it on
and you're not the only one

get it up get it out get it in time
hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing
move it in move it out move up the line
bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing
I DON`T WANT YOUR LOVE

I don't mind if you're keeping someone else behind
I don't care 'cause you've got something I can share

Hey, take a chance, even if it's only
Only while we're dancing in the
Light of your second sight because
When you understand me
You might feel good around me now.

I don't want your love to bring me down
I don't want your love so turn it around

I won't turn you out if you've got someone else
Someone else you care about
Because you must realise
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination

I don't want your love to bring me down
I don't want your love so turn it around

Your rhythym is the power to move me
It's something you control completely
I don't want your love
I don't want your love

I like noise 'cause I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down. I can't shut my mouth
But when you understand me,
You might feel good around me

I don't want your love to bring me down
I don't want your love so turn it around

Your rhythym is the power to move me
It's something you control completely
I don't want your love
I don't want your love

NECHCEM TVOJU LÁSKU

Nevadí mi, ak máš niekoho za sebou
Nevadí mi to, pretože máš niečo,čo máme spoločné

Hey, využišancu, hoci je iba vtedy
iba vtedy, keď tancujeme
vo svetle tvojho druhého pohľadu, pretože
keď mi rozumieš
musíš sa teraz pri mne cítiť dobre

Nechcem tvoju lásku, aby ma zničila
nechcem tvoju lásku, tak to otoč

Nevyženiemťa ak máš niekoho iného
Niekoho o koho stojíš
Pretože si musíš uvedomiť
že moje posadnuté očarenie je v tvojich predstavách

Nechcem tvoju lásku, aby ma zničila
nechcem tvoju lásku, tak to otoč

Tvoj rytmus je silou , ktorá mnou hýbe
je to niečo,čo máš úplne pod kontrolou
Nechcem tvoju lásku
Nechcem tvoju lásku

Mám rád hluk, pretože rád prebúdzam dom
Nemôžem sedieť. Nemôžem zavrieť ústa.
Ale keď mi rozumieš,
musíš sa pri mne cítiť dobre

Nechcem tvoju lásku, aby ma zničila
nechcem tvoju lásku, tak to otoč

Tvoj rytmus je silou, ktorá mnou hýbe
je to niečo,čo máš úplne pod kontrolou
Nechcem tvoju lásku
Nechcem tvoju lásku

ALL SHE WANT IS

All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants is

Spend your money on the corner now
Know you've gotta save some for the shoeshine boy
You've been pulling 'em by the hand inside
Oh...collecting all your toys
If you need a little heaven now, just stick around
You're going to be there
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?

All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants is

Divine intervention
Couldn't keep the word from leaking out
With your pleasure in suspension
Not to mention what you're hanging around
If you need a lead to heaven, yeah
A place to share
In every position
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?

All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants is

VŠETKO ČO CHCE JE

Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...

Míňať tvoje prachy na rohu
Vieš,že musíš niečo ušetriť prečističa topánok
Ťaháš ich za ruku dnu
Oh.....Zbierajúc všetky tvoje hračky
Ak teraz potrebuješ trocha neba, potuluj sa okolo
Dostaneš sa tam
Čo si trúfaš?
Očo stojíš?
Čo ti teraz vraví srdce?

Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...

Boží zásah
nezabráni slovu uniknúť
s tvojou radosťou v odročení
Nehľadiac na to ako tu postávaš
Ak potrebuješ doviesť do neba, yeah
Podeliť sa o miesto
V každej pozícii
Čo si trúfaš?
Očo stojíš?
Čo ti teraz vraví srdce?

Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...
Všetko,čo chce, je...

TOO LATE MARLENE

Waking out of nowhere
And I let you in
Til my imagination went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still I wonder why everybody's saying
That ice is thin.

And I think I know you
Just a little bit by now
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I don't want to fight about it

Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
And you'll understand
Because its' much too late to change

Awaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
We'll always wonder why everytime
It still tastes just as sweet

Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
You'll understand
Because it's much too late to change

I will explain
We're to much the same
No I won't leave
Because it's just too late Marlene

PRÍLIŠ NESKORO MARLENE

Zobudiac sa zčista jasna
A jaťa pustím dnu
Kým moja fantázia sašla prejsť
Videl somťa každú noc
Odvtedy sme sa milovali
A stále sa divím, prečo každý hovorí,
žeľad je tenký

A myslím si,žeťa poznám
doteraz aspoň trošku
A myslím,že ti môžem ukázať
Vidíš, baby, nechcem ohľadom toho bojovať

Odožeň mračná
Teda kto je na vine
A ty pochopíš
Pretože na zmenu je príliš neskoro

Prebudený do hladu
a potom sledujúc moju horúčavu
bledne viac ako mesačný svit
ktorý si ma prinútila jesť
A ak vedieme našeživoty
jednosmernou ulicou
vždy sa budeme diviť, prečo zakaždým
to tak stále sladko chutí

Odožeň mračná
Teda kto je na vine
A ty pochopíš
Pretože na zmenu je príliš neskoro

Vysvetlím
sme príliš rovnaký
nie, neodídem,
pretože je príliš neskoro Marlene

Drug (It's Just a State of Mind)

take me every morning
take me every night
take me when you're feeling low
take me when you want to stay up all night

before you slip into the white
there's something I want you to know
in all your stretch of consciousness
you've still got a long way to go
some make you spin
some make you sweat
it's only here for you to choose
some like it hot, but I like it wet so tell me
what have we got to lose now

take me every morning
take me every night
take me when you're feeling low
take me when you want to stay up all night

(a hit, a hit)

a hit to fit reality
it's just a state of mind
and you and it it's more than just
and that's what you've got to find
we'll make you spin
we'll make you sweat
all you have to do is choose me
and if you would try
and alternative high
then tell me, what have we got to lose now

take me every morning
take me every night
take me when you're feeling low
take me when you want to stay up all night
DO YOU BELIEVE IN SHAME?

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
If love can conquer all then
why do we only feel the pain?

I heard you speak my name
heard you singing The Stones
maybe heard you laughing in a line of static on my telephone

So why your eyelids are closed
inside a case of rust
and did you have to change all your poets fire
into frozen dust

I've tried to justify it
to learn from your mistake
but where's the stupid lie that has to make it's point
with such a pointless waste

Come out

Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same would you love again
or abandon both?

I don't think i ever can
believe my friend has gone
keep saying it's alright i'm going to bring you back
but i know i'm wrong

There's nothing i can say
there's nothing left to do
it's just that lately i've been so damn lonely
when i think of you

And it may seem selfish now
but i'll hold on to the memory
until all this fear
has washed away

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
'Cos i believe a little part of you inside of me
will never die...
Yes i believe a little part of you inside of me
will never die

/For Alex Sadkin, Andy Warhol a Miles Davis/

VERÍŠ V HANBU?

Veríš v lásku?
Veríš v hanbu?
Ak láska víťazí nad všetkým,
prečo teda cítime iba bolesť?

Počul somŤa vravieť moje meno,
Počul somŤa si spievať The Stones
Možno somŤa počul aj smiať sa na linke môjho telefónu

Tak prečo máš viečka zatvorené
v hrdzavejšperkovnici
A musel si premeniť oheň všetkých tvojich básnikov
na mrazivý prach

Skúšal som to ospravedlniť
poučením sa z Tvojích chýb
ale kde je tá hlúpa lož, ktorá si musí vydobyť svoj názor
s takou hlúpou zbytočnosťou

Výjdi von

Veríš v hanbu?
Veríš v lásku?
A ak majú rovnakú chuť, budeš znova milovať,
alebo ich obe zničíš?

I nemyslím,že vôbec niekedy uverím
že môj priateľ odišiel
vravím „v poriadku privediemŤa späť“
a viem,že vravím hlúposti

Niet čo povedať,
niet viacčo robiť
lenže v poslednomčase sa cítim prekliato osamelý
keď na teba myslím

Možno sa to teraz zdá sebecké,
ale ja sa držím spomienok
až pokiaľ sa všetok strach
nezmyje

Veríš v lásku?
Veríš vživot?
Pretože ja verím,že kúsok s teba vo mne
nikdy neumrie
Áno ja verím,že kúsok s teba vo mne
nikdy neumrie

/Pre Alexa Sadkina, Andy Warhola a Milesa Davisa/

PALOMINO

she lays on the wall
watching the strangers drift away
mid-day's ore (thick)
with the sun of Arabia

she surrenders her voices
they gather on the wind
talking, chanting, breathing
into her body... (yesterday)

awaken beside
the scent of burnt sugar on the skin
painting eyes (thick)
with the colour she brings in
oh, and sure and strong
when the lightning tumbles down
don't you frown
everything will be in time for this evening

if there's secrets
she has to be pardoned to
every one of them
if there's a heaven
she gets to the heart

and you'll know why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
now let me run (let me run)

if there's secrets
she has to be padoned to
every one of them
if there's heaven
she gets to the heart

and you'll know why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
now let me run... (let me run)

hey, hey
why she says
when I run out of blue
help me rise instead
then I will run to you
why she says
when I run out of blue
give me rain instead
then I will run to you
PALOMINO

Leží na hradbách
Sledujúc, ako cudzinci odchádzajú
Hornina na pravé poludnie... rozpálená
Slnkom Arábie

Poddáva sa hlasom
Schádzajú sa vo vetre
Rozprávajúc, spievajúc, dýchajúc
Na jej telo... (včera)

Prebudená vedľa
Vôňe spáleného cukru... na pokožke
Maľujúc si oči... zahmlené
Farbou ktorú prináša
Oh a je si istá a je silná
Keď sa blesk rúti k zemi
Nemrač sa
Všetko príde včas v tento večer

A ak sú nejaké tajomstvá
Potom jej za všetky
Muselo byť odpustené
A ak sú nejaké nebesia
Ona sa dostane do samého srdca

A ty pochopíš prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Pomôž mi namiesto toho rásť
Potom budem bežať k tebe
Prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Prines mi namiesto toho dážď
Teraz ma nechaj utiecť... (nechaj ma utiecť)

A ak sú nejaké tajomstvá
Potom jej za všetky
Muselo byť odpustené
A ak sú nejaké nebesia
Ona sa dostane do samého srdca

A ty pochopíš prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Pomôž mi namiesto toho rásť
Potom budem bežať k tebe
Prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Prines mi namiesto toho dážď
Teraz ma nechaj ujsť... (nechaj ma ujsť)

Hey-hey....
Prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Pomôž mi namiesto toho rásť
Potom budem bežať k tebe
Prečo hovorí
Keď zčista jasna utekám
Prines mi namiesto toho dážď
Potom budem bežať k tebe.....
LAND

Away from you, away from here,
Away from you.
Stay for me, stay for me,
Stay for me.

Baby, I'm really sorry
To break your dream
When it's so early

Headlights
On the windowpane
They're getting lost
In the light of day

Tomorrow is today
And soon my ship will sail
Away from here
To walk a howling sealane
Stay for me
Your love is life
For love is land

Baby, just hear my story
Before I leave
Before we write the end

Standing
across the ocean stream
I'll need to know
I'll need your country then

Tomorrow and today
You keep my landfall safe
Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
I need your love to land
Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
Your love is life, for love is land

Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay here for me (stay for me)
I need your love to land
Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
Your love is life, for love is land

Love is land
Love is land
Love is land

Reflektory

budem potrebovať tvoje územie

Zajtra a dnes
zabezpečíš moje pristátie

EDGE OF AMERICA

Walk the edge of America                                     

A concrete beach to scrape my hand...               

Inside the subway stinking fear and shame         

becomes the violent breath                        .

 

Vigilantes out on dawn patrol,                               

but now there's nothing left to hide            

I'm just a number on a metal fence           

which marks the great divide.                               

 

(sing it)                                                                     

 

Hey boy                                                                    

give your dreams a rest                                         

if you're tired of searching                                     

This is where it ends,                                             

there's nothing left to lose                                      

nothing to protest.                                                   

Learn to love your anger now,                               

anger here is all you possess...                            

Welcome to the edge                                            

 

Below the towers of the citadel,                            

seems someone overlooked the cost.                 

Forgotten soldier of paradise,                              

now paradise is lost.                                              

 

Recognition never realized,                                  

salvation lost among the crowd      .                      

So tell me beside this sterile sea                         

where is your nation now?                                     

 

(and we say)                                                            

                                                          

Hey boy                                                                    

give your dreams a rest,                                        

if you're tired of searching...                                  

This is where it ends,                                             

there's nothing left to lose                                      

nothing to protest.                                                   

Learn to love your anger now,                               

anger here is all you possess...

Welcome to the edge

NA POKRAJI AMERIKY

Na pokraji Ameriky,

kde betónový val mi dlane zodiera,

vo vzduchu páchne strach a stud

i zavše temnú silu naberá.

 

Pred strážnikmi za úsvitu,

vlastne nie je čo skrývať,

číslom na železnej bráne som

a nemusím s davom splývať.

 

(spievaj)

 

Hej chlapče,

zahoď svoje sny,

tou tiesňou iste zmorený už si.

Je proste koniec,

a ty nemáš, čo bys´ stratil,

už nie je nič, čo by si zvrátil.

Preto zvykaj si na svoju zlosť,

ona jediná je tvoja kosť.

Vitaj na pokraji..

 

Pod vežami veľkomesta,

ktoré honosnosti nezná kraja,

stoja zabudnutý vojaci,

bojovníci strateného raja.

 

Neznámy a bez uznania,

čakajú na spásu utopenú v dave.

V oceáne prázdnoty sa pýtajú,

v akom svete ocitli sa práve.

 

(a tak vravíme)

                                                          

Hej chlapče, 

zahoď svoje sny

tou tiesňou iste zmorený už si.

Je proste koniec

a ty nemáš, čo bys´ stratil,

už nie je nič, čo by si zvrátil.

Preto zvykaj si na svoju zlosť,

ona jediná je tvoja kosť.

Vitaj na pokraji..

B-SIDES
I Believe / All I Need To Know
(SP All She Want Is)

the taxman's in the pocketbook
the pressman's by the bar
and all the world is at your door

it's strange that you should lock it up
and preach an open heart
but you know what they're waiting for

you can turn your face away now
and don't think twice
I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
or even your advice
I believe you'll follow me
it's all I need to know (to walk away)

I was tempted by the devil in this deep blue swimming pool
until the devils make amends
and my future's in the strangled oath of ever changing rules
I don't intend to understand

you can stop pretending now that I had you fooled
I'm still the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
to paralise my soul
I believe you'll follow me
it's all I need to know
promise me you'll try to understand
before I go

you can turn your face away now
and don't think twice
I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know
I'm not after your money
or even your advice
I believe you'll follow me
it's all I need to know
promise me you'll try to understand
before I go

all I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
This Is How A Road Gets Made
(SP Do You Believe In Shame)

this is how a road gets made
somebody walked on a virgin land
someone else saw their tracks and followed them
leaving a path
it seemed as though I were looking down the hill
when I first saw it
but as I walked on I realized I was going up
somebody whistled behind
and turning round they seemed far below
then I came to where there had been a fire
and was shaded from the sun by trees
figure of 8
it's our year- it always was
credentials
made of earth
drinks water
breathes air
makes fire
God (London)
(SP Do You Believe In Shame)

god created the world
then created the devil to blame for his mistakes
I closed the door of my hotel room behind me
it was like closing a chapter in the book of life
outside 30 floors below I could hear the police
using their sirens like wolf whistles to pick up young girls

on tv Oliver North his 15 minutes of fame
ticking steadily away was being fuzzy about crucial events
which had happened a year earlier- what a flake
but then who isn't
that was Reagan's defence at least
the worst thing is how politics begins to leak into your life
back in our innocence we used to simply stick two fingers up
say "Fuck Off" that was about all you had to say anyway
and then go back to the more important business of making music

so why was I sitting there feeling angry about covert operations
and illegal aid to the contras
I mean I'm not even American
but maybe we all are a little bit
and then I realized it was just the thought
that in this paticular democracy
and probably every other one in the world
there is someboby in power who thinks he is more right
then all the people who put him there
all the people who for once in their lives took an intrest

outside the wind was howling the who-whos
from sympathy for the devil
round and round the concrete hotel walls and corners
that was then- this isn't
Grey Lady of the Sea

we've whispered outloud
but your breeze doesn't bend
we're lying in the palm of your hand
no land we see no place to be
the salt of your tears as stained to our hearts
there's no long years can tear us apart

our futures entwined with our hearts
because when we lie awake
we'll be thinking of you

blow grey lady blow your ships back home
blow grey lady blow your ships back home

bravado is all but gone
and patience is down
you've scared us and you've turned us around
but you won't let us drownd

because when we lie asleep
we'll be dreaming of you

blow grey lady blow your ships back home
blow grey lady blow your ships back home

so answer us when we call
and say if you think we're wrong
when life is so short we can't stay long
but you'll never be alone
because one day we'll return
we'll be waiting for you

blow grey lady blow your ships back home
blow grey lady blow your ships back home
FOLLOW IN MY FOOTSTEPS

Where the earth recieves
The seeds from the sky
Where the ancient fill the newborn
With the breath of life

I will run once more
Before this body dies
I go running and I feel my muscles
Burning in the light

In our innocence
the world is young and strong,
beating at the center of perfection,
Is this heart of mine

Feel the mountain move to hear our song
See the children stand where they belong

Follow in My Footsteps now
Follow in My Footsteps
Follow in My Footsteps
Follow in My Footsteps

I am the lightening streak
Across the brooding sky
I am witness to the spirit
Of your sunrise

Call if your fevers rage
Is in need of tenderness
Feel that I am, Feel that I am
Feel that I am, the medicine

Feel the mountain move to hear our song
Hear the thunder rolling for our song

Call the wind
Call the rain
Call the first ones by their names
Call the moon
Call the sun
Call the blood back to my veins

Follow in my footsteps now
Follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps

Feel the mountain move to hear our song
Hear the thunder rolling for our song

Call the wind
Call the rain
Call the first ones by their names
Call the moon
Call the sun
Call the blood back to my veins

Follow in my footsteps now
Follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps

You can follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps
Follow in my footsteps yeah

SIMON LE BON & JOHNATAN ELIAS
Requiem For The Americas Soundtrack 1988

KRÁČAJ V MOJICH STOPÁCH

Tam kde sa zemi dostáva
milosť z nebies
Tam, kde starobylé napĺňa novozrodené
dychom života

Tam pobežím ešte raz,
kým toto telo zomrie
Bežím a cítim, ako mi svaly
horia vo svetle

V našej nevinnosti
je svet mladý a silný
A srdce človeka krváca
v samom centre dokonalosti

Cítiť ako sa hory hýbu aby počuli našu pieseň
Vidieť deti zostávať tam kde patria

Tak kráčaj teraz v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách

Som blesk rozžiarujúci
váhavú oblohu
Som svedok svitu
v tvojich rozžiarených očiach

Nazvi to spaľujúcou vášňou
volajúcou po nežnosti
Cítiš že je som, Cítiš že ja som
Cítiš že ja som liek

Cítiť ako sa hory hýbu aby počuli našu pieseň
Počuť že hrom udrie kvôli našej piesni

Zavolaj vietor,
zavolaj dážď,
zavolaj prvorodených ich menom
Zavolaj mesiac,
zavolaj slnko,
zavolaj krv späť do mojich žíl

Tak kráčaj teraz v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách

Cítiť ako sa hory hýbu aby počuli našu pieseň
Počuť že hrom udrie kvôli našej piesni

Zavolaj vietor,
zavolaj dážď,
zavolaj prvorodených ich menom
Zavolaj mesiac,
zavolaj slnko,
zavolaj krv späť do mojich žíl

Tak kráčaj teraz v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách
Kráčaj v mojich stopách

Môžeš kráčať v mojich stopách
Kráčať v mojich stopách
Kráčať v mojich stopách
