про музыку в старом журнале — тэг music
муз.коллекция в виде сайта — http://bkffmusic.narod.ru (обновляется раз в месяц)
music: here
not music: not here
In the early days all I hoped was to make a living out of what I did best. But, since there's no real market for masturbation I had to fall back on my bass playing abilities
"I spend fortunes in this rat-trap" said the Kid
"But the plush and flock soak up the brain's kerfuffle
And I like to see a servile barman shuffle
If sympathy's your need let's hear your bid"
"It's my lousy memory" I told the Kid
"What other men forget I still remember
The flies are still alive inside the amber
It's a garbage can with rubbish for a lid"
"Your metaphors are murder" said the Kid
"I know the mood -- give in to it a little
The man who shatters is the man who's brittle
Lay off the brakes and steer into the skid
"Strained virtue warps the soul" announced the Kid
"Those forced attempts at cleanliness that linger
Like soap between your wedding ring and finger
They're residues of which you're better rid
***
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
***
Mister marvin middle class is really in a stew
Wondrin what the younger generations coming to
And the taste of his martini doesnt please his bitter tongue
Blame it on the rolling stones.
***
Let me sing to you all those songs I know
Of the wild, windy places locked in timeless snow,
And the wide, crimson deserts where the muddy rivers flow.
It's sad, but the telling takes me home.
Come along with me to some places that I've been
Where people all look back and they still remember when,
And the quicksilver legends, like sunlight, turn and bend
It's sad, but the telling takes me home.
***
If I get there before the snow flies
And if things are lookin' good
You could meet me if I send you down the fare.
But, by then it would be winter
Not too much for you to do
And those winds sure can blow cold 'way out there.
***
"With me the problem's women" said the Kid
"Befuddled, fondled under separate covers
One and all they've gone to other lovers
As I powered down to zero from the grid
"But I love the little darlings" sighed the Kid
"The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid
"As for the dreadful memories" said the Kid
"The waste and poison in the spirit's river
Relax your hands and let the bastards quiver
They tremble more the more you keep it hid"
