und Scones
und viel Sonne. Wie im Mai, leider.

Und jetzt: Wieder ein wenig musik- und textlastig.

Lou Reed: Walk On The Wild Side
Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.Plucked her eyebrows on the wayShaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side"Said, "Hey, honeyTake a walk on the wild side"
Candy came from out on the IslandIn the back room she was everybody's darlingBut she never lost her headEven when she was giving head
She says, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side"Said, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls go"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
Little Joe never once gave it awayEverybody had to pay and payA hustle here and a hustle thereNew York City's the place
Where they said, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side"I said, "Hey, JoeTake a walk on the wild side"
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streetsLooking for soul food and a place to eatWent to the ApolloYou should've seen them go, go, go
They said, "Hey, sugarTake a walk on the wild side"I said, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side", alrightHuh
Jackie is just speeding awayThought she was James Dean for a dayThen I guess she had to crashValium would have helped that bash
She said, "Hey, babeTake a walk on the wild side"I said, "Hey, honeyTake a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls say"Doo do doo do doo do do doo..."
Man beachte Mo Tucker, die stets im Stehen schlagzeugt.
VU: Sweet Jane
Standin' on a cornerSuitcase in my handJack's in his car, says to Jane, who's in her vestAnd me, I'm in a rock 'n' roll band
Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, JimYou know those were different timesAll, all the poets studied rows of verseAnd those ladies, they rolled their eyes
Sweet Jane, ohSweet Jane, oh, ohSweet Jane
I'll tell you somethin' of Jack, he is a bankerAnd Jane, she is a clerkAnd the both of them save their moneysAnd when, when they come home from work
Ooh, sittin' by the fire, oohThe radio just played a little classical music that jamThe march of the wooden soldiersAll you protest kids, you can hear Jack sayGet ready ya
Sweet Jane, ah, come on baby nowSweet JaneSweet Jane
Some people like to go out dancingAnd other people, they have to work, just watch me nowAnd there's always some evil mothersWell they gonna tell you that everything is just of dirt
You know that women never really faintAnd that villeins always blink their eyes, oohAnd that you know children are the only ones who blushAnd that life is just to die
But anyone with or had a heart, ohThey wouldn't turn around and break itAnd anyone who ever played the part, ohThey wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane, oh-whoaSweet JaneSweet Jane
Heavenly wine and rosesSeem to whisper to her when he smilesHeavenly wine and rosesSeem to whisper to her, hey, when she smiles
La, la, la, la-la-la ...
Sweet Jane ...
Und eine wunderbare Coverversion von den Cowboy Junkies, die dem Original in nichts nachsteht.
