”Sledgehammer” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Peter Gabriel [Intro] Hey, hey, you Tell me how have you been? [Verse 1] You could have a steam train If you just lay down your tracks You could have an aeroplane flying If you bring your blue sky back All you do is call me I’ll be anything you need [Verse 2] You could have a big dipper Going up and down, all around the bends You could have a bumper car, bumping This amusement never ends [Chorus] I wanna be your sledgehammer Why don’t you call my name? Wow! Oh, let me be your sledgehammer This will be my testimony Yeah (Yeah) [Verse 3] Show me ‘round your fruit cage ‘Cause I will be your honey bee Open up your fruit cage Where the fruit is as sweet as can be [Chorus] I wanna be your sledgehammer Why don’t you call my name? You’d […]
Peter Gabriel – ”Come talk to me”
”Come Talk to Me” Melodie de: Peter Gabriel The wretched desert takes its form, the jackal proud and tight In search of you I feel my way, through the slowest heaving night Whatever fear invents, I swear it make no sense I reach out through the border fence Come down, come talk to me In the swirling, curling storm of desire unuttered words hold fast With reptile tongue, the lightning lashes towers built to last Darkness creeps in like a thief and offers no relief Why are you shaking like a leaf? Come on, come talk to me Ah please talk to me Won’t you please talk to me? We can unlock this misery Come on, come talk to me I did not come to steal This all is so unreal Can’t you show me how you feel now? Come on, come talk to me Come talk to me, come […]
Peter Gabriel – ”Big time”
Hi there! I’m on my way, I’m making it I’ve got to make it show, yeah (Yeah!) It’s so much larger than life I’m gonna watch it growing The place where I come from Is a small town They think so small They use small words But not me! I’m smarter than that I worked it out I’ve been stretching my mouth To let those big words come right out I’ve had enough I’m getting out To the city The big, big city I’ll be a big noise With all the big boys (So much stuff I will own) And I will pray to a big god As I kneel in the big church (Big time) I’m on my way, I’m making it (Big time) Oh, yes! (Big time) I’ve got to make it show, yeah (Big time) (Big time) It’s so much larger than life (Big time) I’m gonna […]
Peter Gabriel feat. Kate Bush – ”Don’t give up”
In this proud land we grew up strong We were wanted all along I was taught to fight, taught to win I never thought I could fail No fight left or so it seems I am a man whose dreams have all deserted I’ve changed my face, I’ve changed my name But no one wants you when you lose Don’t give up ‘Cause you have friends Don’t give up You’re not beaten yet Don’t give up I know you can make it good Though I saw it all around Never thought that I could be affected Thought that we’d be last to go It is so strange the way things turn Drove the night toward my home The place that I was born, on the lakeside As daylight broke, I saw the earth The trees had burned down to the ground Don’t give up You still have us Don’t give […]
Peter Gabriel – ”My body is a cage”
My body is a cage That keeps me from dancing with the one I love My mind holds the key My body is a cage That keeps me from dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key I’m standing on a stage Of fear and self doubt It’s a hollow play But they’ll clap anyway My body is a cage That keeps me from dancing with the one I love My mind holds the key My mind holds the key My mind holds the key I’m living in an age That calls darkness light Though my language is dead Still the shapes fill my head I’m living in an age Whose name I don’t know Though the fear keeps me moving Still my heart beats so slow My body is a Is a Is a Is a Is a Is a Is a Is a Is […]
