Words for Food


I'm not mad anymore, really.  Just don't do it again, see?


Lyrics that make me think, or entertain me , or paint a picture, or make me remember--something. Some I just wish I'd written.  Some allow me the out of body experience I don't wish to inflict on my own. Some I just plain like the sound of. Some will be full lines, some are translations, probably bad, some mere phrases, some only end rhymes, especially with  Mr. Dylan who makes daring ones. For instance:

I love this song so much, makes me feel simultaneously so many contrary emotions, I don't know what to think.  So I have to put here the entire song:

----"Замер троллейбус в троллейбусном парке
    Перепутал механик провода по запарке
    Выключив лампочки в сорок электросвечей
    Люди ночами делают новых людей

    Такие тонкие стены из цветного картона
    В светло-серых дворцах из стекла и бетона
    Доверяя всему, что плетут из дневных новостей
   Люди ночами делают новых людей
 
    Люди кричат, задыхаясь от счастья
    И стонут так сладко и дышат так часто
    Что хочется двигаться с каждой секундой быстрей
    Делая, делая, делая новых людей

     Думают люди в Ленинграде и Риме
     Что смерть - это то, что бывает с другими
    Что жизнь так и будет крутить и крутить колесо
     Слышишь, на кухне замерли стрелки часов

     Но ничего-ничего - погрустит и забудет
     Через время появятся новые люди
      Едут троллейбусы без габаритных огней
     Люди ночами делают новых людей

     Люди кричат, задыхаясь от счастья
     И стонут так сладко и дышат так часто
    Что хочется двигаться с каждой секундой быстрей
     Делая, делая, делая новых людей
     Людям так нравится делать новых людей..."
                                    --Сплин ,  "Новые Люди"

Ok, this is my English translation, interpretation of this song.  Some people are like a trolleybus without lights--not listening to the tick of the kitchen clock.  They scream in happiness, oblivious, wanting time to go faster, moving faster in their ecstasy, but all it will create, in the night, is new people--people, making people.  The highest point of human existence?

                                 --The Pixies, "Subbacultcha

---"Well, I stand up next to a mountain/
     And I chop it down with the edge of my hand
