I got a chance for a life time on the screen
I got a call from a from an agent overseas
He said: “Nobody cares for me
Nobody really cares for me
Nobody cares, Nobody I believe to be real”
When I told him I cannot sing he agreed (he couldn't agree more)
When I told him I cannot dance he said: “Come with me” and
“Don't be foolish,” he whispered shyly “Don't be foolish it's got nothing to do with your talent
Nobody cares for me
Nobody really cares for me
Nobody cares, Nobody I believe to be real”
I made a fall from my window on floor 3
And I could not believe I wasn't hurt, no not me
It's like a song for a lifetime,
you say you're sorry but there is
No goodbye zone for me
Still, nobody cares, you see
Nobody really cares, you see
Nobody cares, nobody I believe to be real
Called myself a fool at least a million times this week
Bumped into that wall at least a million times this week
I feel weak
I might sneak out the backdoor of my mind to be free
Seeing this film makes me feel like losing you
I'm so angry I could beat his fat head to shit, I'm losing you
I can't drink this coffee, it's way too hot
I can't swim this river deep, it's way too strong
I can't drink this coffee
I wish this film would end, it would end, cause I can't turn it off
In my head this film it don't have an end, it will conquer space to never leave its place,
I can't drink this coffee, it's way too hot
I can't swim this river deep, it's way too strong
I can't drink this coffee, it's way too hot
I wanna sleep, It's too much, I wanna sleep
And you try to keep me here, with all your might, you wanna keep me here.
I've been to Spain by drinking wine
To Portugal and Turkey too
Tasted the better parts of France
And before all that you
Two glasses Italy, two Greece
And two of South Africa please
I've seen the Parthenon turn red
The temple seemed so sad
Rows of emptied bottles bearing down on me
But I'm on a holiday
So I'll leave them home to wait
Till I'm in a better state
All those emptied bottles standing in my way
But I'm on a holiday,
So I'll leave them home to wait
Till I'm in a sober state
I've been away too long to know
The way back to my lonely rows
I couldn't find a telephone
To say I wouldn't be home
I've been to Spain by drinking wine
To Portugal and Turkey too
Tasted the better parts of France
And before all that you
Rows of emptied bottles are bearing down on me
But I'm on a holiday
So I'll leave them home to wait
Till I'm in a better state
All those emptied bottles standing in my way
But I'm on a holiday,
So I'll leave them home to wait
Till I'm in a sober state
Yes I'm on a holiday
So I'll leave them home to wait
Till I'm in a sober state
I've only got a minute to talk to you on the phone
You say you're very busy but you sound so alone
The line is hissing
Words are missing
I miss you
Buzzing in my head is the finest of melodies
To keep it in there I'd go down on my knees
But again
The line is hissing
Notes are missing
Do..mi..so
Although it's time to hang up now
I'd like to say the words stuck inside somehow
Although it's time to hang up now
I'd like to say the words stuck inside somehow
I'm outside still
I'm hoping to wake up one morning and you're there
I'll be walking with you then and we”ll share
All past things
Good things
Bad things
Happy things
Anything
Although it's time to hang up now
I'd like to say the words stuck inside somehow
Although it's time to hang up now
I'd like to say the words stuck inside somehow
They're inside somehow
Inside somehowe
So inside come out
Inside somehow
Inside somehowe
So inside come out
Inside come out
Inside come out now
I only had a minute to talk to you on the phone
You said you were so busy but you sounded so alone
So I had to make a little hole to look through at your world
I tried to make it bigger but it instead it was getting smaller and smaller and smaller
That's why I started talking to you as if you were here
And I'm getting nearer now I'm getting near
I'll wake up one morning and you're there
I'll be walking with you and we”ll share
All past things
Good things
Bad things
Happy things
Sad things
Strange things
Silly things
Anything
Although it's time to hang up now
I'd like to say the words stuck inside somehow
Although it's time to hang up now
I need to say the words stuck inside somehow
You sleep in your Lada cause you got no home
You got nowhere to go but then you got no goal
You're always telling people that they never call
But seem to keep forgetting that you got no phone
If I can't be the one to love you always
Let me be the one to love you now
If I can't be the one to love you wholly
I'll be the one to love a single part
My first steps into your world
They're a baby's little steps
It feels like I am one again
But then again that's young again mmmh..
You act like you're the sister of a movie star
All your little lies you make them taste like chocolate bars
You sometimes have the feeling that you go to far
But always keep accepting that's just who you are
I will be the one before the end of your show
I will be the one before you go
If I can't be the one to love you always
Let me be the one to love you now
If I can't be the one to love you wholly
I'll be the one to love a single part
Days can be misty in the Picos mountains
But walk on walk on and believe me you'll get there, in Cova Donga
I'd never kissed a Maria with real tears
No, I'd never seen such magic from that close
Grandma lives in the times of the old songs I sometimes sing for her
But you never know when she's coming back and maybe she will not come back
maybe it's too misty
I kissed the shell of James in Santiago
And I brought you holy water from Lourdes
I'm walking a straight line
I'd never kissed a Maria with real tears
I'd never seen such magic from that close
Grandma's lost
Even in her own house she's lost
But it's not that bad to be lost
You'll be found again
Won't you?
Please wave
Like a string on my guitar
I'm as strangled inside
I could walk a thousand miles
Let peace sink into my mind
my first step was on your toes
Then I heard a sweet echo
of a laugh that died too soon
it never survived your honeymoon
Worries are not allowed in these situations
these situations, I know
just get in the roundabout
let the rotations, the wild rotations take over
go with the flow
go on
go with the flow
tease and she'll follow you
Like a string on my guitar
I'm as strangled inside
I should walk a thousand miles
let peace sink into my mind
Honey, you're not in love
and someone will take you home
Many play a game I don't understand
Heaven gave everyone a name
and I'm not pointing at you
But you close your eyes and you realize your name
Then you realize the game tell me who has the courage
To feel as much the shame
Many have a strength I won't underrate
Heaven gave everyone a length
and I'm not pointing at you
But you lose your life at the bottom of a river
Suddenly delivered and new undercurrents will surely come to stay
But what's to take them all away when to live is to obey
Many play a game I don't understand
Heaven gave everyone a name
and I'm not pointing at you
We've lost a life
We've lost it
“Jimmy sing a hit!”
Is all that you can say
“Jimmy sing a song to keep the jukebox playing”
But Jimmy's fire's too hot
It freezes down your spine
Jimmy's fire's so hot I fear the temperature will never rise again
He wiggles up and down
Tries to make you smile
He'd even do it with a lie
But when he sings a song
He always tells you something
About the things he's here for
About the things he's really made of
Still he smiles with a tear
And the tear don't fall
It's a smile ear to ear but it don't reach his balls
The ingredients are good and they can be mixed
But the right cocktail just can't be fixed
And his tongue is so bitter
That his tone it tends to cry
Listen to him and you'll find out
That if you are in despair
With no clear view from your window
It”ll always happen somewhere else each night
So smile and sing these lines:
Old McDonald had a farm
And old McDonald never lied
When I was nine
They took my head out of the sun
When I was nine
They took my head out of the sun
And the sun was out of my head
Then all the lines in my head
They were drawn by a man
All the lines in my head
They were drawn by a man
As good as a little man can
You and I know
I was a pretty bad act
Both you and I know
That it was made to distract
Made to distract that
The sun was out of my head
Someday I know that life
Will be kind
Will rewind
To show that I have been all right
Have been all right
When I'm smiling now
You know my head's in a song
When I'm smiling now
You can tell my head's in a song
And the sun is in my head
Both you and I know
We're on our way to some top
Both you and I know
That you are frightened of dogs
But you're not afraid of my love
And someday I know that life
Will be kind
Will rewind
To show that I have been all right
