from Marianne Faithfull - 20th Century Blues (1997)
Why is it that civilized humanity
Can make the world so wrong ? In this hurly-burly of insanity Our dreams cannot last long. We've reached a deadline, A press headline, Every sorrow. Blues value Is news value Tomorrow. Blues Twentieth century blues Are getting me down. Blues Escape those weary Twentieth century blues. Why, If there's a God in the sky, Why shouldn't He grin High Above this dreary Twentieth century din ? In this strange illusion, Chaos and confusion, People seem to lose their way. What is there to strive for, Love or keep alive for, Say, 'Hey, hey!' Call it a day ? Blues Nothing to win or to lose, It's getting me down. Blues Escape those weary Twentieth century blues. We've reached a deadline, A press headline, Every sorrow. Blues value Is news value Tomorrow. Blues Nothing to win or to lose, It's getting me down. Blues Escape those dreary Twentieth century Blues. |

Someone who isn't like you and to waste it all.
Someone to be around, Someone to have me hold when the deal goes down. Didn't I say it would happen this way in the end? Didn't I say it would happen this way in the end? A perfect stranger is what it seems, A perfect stranger, a crazy dream, A crazy dream. Find myself a perfect stranger to do for now, Someone who isn't like you but knows why and how. Someone to walk away, Someone who knows the time to leave or to stay. Isn't it sad, baby, we never have it that way? Isn't it sad, baby, we never have it that way? A perfect stranger is what he seems, A perfect stranger, a crazy dream, A crazy dream. Find myself a perfect stranger to take me there Someone who isn't like you but know why and where Soemone who's not afraid Someone who's blind to all the promises made. How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it this way Perfect stranger How does it feel, baby, we shouldn't leave it... |

Some fools don't know what's right from wrong,
But somehow those folks belong. Me, I try for all I'm worth, But I still remain a stranger on this earth. Some people gloom, other folk cry. Me, I have to struggle to keep alive. Ever since the day of my birth I've been a stranger, stranger on this earth. I try to be what all folks should, Forgetting the bad and doing good. But no matter how I try, My troubles always multiply. Now I've been doing the best I can Ever since life began. Some day when I prove my worth I won't be a stranger on earth. Now I've been living the best I can Ever since my life began. The day's gonna come when I prove my worth And I won't be no stranger, No, I won't be a stranger On this earth. |

Another waste of time
Another sort of step along the way A waste of time A waste but an interest in delay Was it all of a waste Or was it fun People fly far away A waste of time Almost not too clear a lesson not to play Exercice perhaps in sensual decay Hard to love and to see how the land lay How to love, what to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing, nothing left to say A waste of time At least some company along the way Great visions Perhaps too fast too bright but anyway And I'll be what you be You wanna say You think you wanna say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing, nothing left to say How to love and to see how the land lay How to laugh, what to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing left to say Gliding across thin ice With nothing, nothing left to say |

That big over the shoulder statement But when it came, it flowed easy as poison Taken in extreme despair [Repeat: x3] Remember to write often In case you have something to tell me, But please don't mention the unexpected guest Staring into empty eyes [Repeat: x3] A long lost confidence and pride Come ringing back, come ringing back To have the shadow back again And happiness that feels like pain. Then you left us To see if you could find it And when you came back, it flowed easy as poison It flowed easy as poison Taken in extreme despair [Repeat: x3] A long lost confidence and pride Come ringing back, come ringing back To have the shadow back again And happiness that feels like pain [Repeat: x2] Happiness that feels like pain.

Before the posion
I wasn't down, If you'd been there If you'd been around I couldn't hear Couldn't hear a sound I was floating Above the ground Before the poison I'd lost my fear Maybe too happy, To even care Safe in my dreams Couldn't see the fall Coming on, coming from nowhere My name to call No more to say Nothin's coming my way No you, no me No more, how can it be Nowhere to run Out of nowhere, poison That is the end What's left for you, my friend Before the poison I'd laugh out loud I'd see your face In any crowd But speak softly Without fear Hold on to me Hold me near No more to say Nothin's coming my way No you, no me No more, how can it be Nowhere to run Out of nowhere, poison That is the end What's left for you, my friend? What's left for you, my friend? What's left for you, my friend? What's left for you...? |

Watch out now, take care,
Beware of falling swingers Dropping all around you The pain that often mingles In your fingertips. Beware of darkness. Watch out now, take care, Beware the thoughts that linger Winding up inside your head The hopelessness around you In the dead of night. Beware of sadness. It can hit you It can hurt you Make you sore And what is more, That is not what You are here for. Watch out now, take care, Beware of soft shoe shufflers Dancing down the sidewalks As each unconscious sufferer Wanders aimlessly, Beware of Maya. Watch out now, take care, Beware of greedy leaders. They'll take you where you should not go, While weeping Atlas cedars, They just want to grow, grow and grow. Beware of darkness. |

So searching down and out looking for a place to stay
A place of no commitment, a place with no involvement. I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel, One's turning, one's burning, blazing away. One's turning, one's burning, blazing away. Strange-looking exile with a passion for the dangerous, An eye for the wicked, a tongue for the nasty. I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel, One's turning, one's burning, blazing away. One's turning, one's burning, blazing away. What is the reason that things change? What is the reason they can never stay the same? What can I do, what can I do? Feel it, release it, things change. Feel it, release it, things change. Feel it, release it, things change. What is the reason that things change? What is the reason they can never stay the same? What can I do, what can I do?

You've seen him
In the undirected light of street dreams Doing nothing Standing, like to seem casual With a resemblance to people held by fear. Lit by fire and disrepair. The blue millionaire. Don't listen and keep asking Only stories reach this far. No one's left and no one's coming And I will disappear Far away from you, The American wind, And the blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. There is no such thing as the Wrong Man Blue as the dusk that ended my day And shut off the light and air. I wish I could tell you How he put them in cages, Found you where you slept. Got me down with something else than bruises Tied me to a blue chair Lit by fire and disrepair The blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Seen him drinking gin from pale blue bottles, Drowning in shadow, Shadows moving in. Forever imagine Imagine it's him Nearby the window With dreams broken in. I don't laugh anymore or smile, I am lost in the body, The passion of time. He is screening my dreams And everything that's mine. Don't stay in this mirror Other hands have left me in. You don't blow away as I do. It will be the same again. Turn and point away from here. Steal what you cannot win From the blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue millionaire. Blue ... |

I walk along the street of sorrow
The boulevard of broken dreams Where gigolo and gigolette Can take a kiss without regret So they forget their broken dreams. You laugh tonight and cry tomorrow When you behold your shattered schemes. And gigolo and gigolette Wake up to find their eyes are wet With tears that tell of broken dreams. Here is where you'll always find me, Always walking up and down, But I left my soul behind me In an old cathedral town. The joy that you find here, you borrow, You cannot keep it long it seems. But gigolo and gigolette Still sing a song and dance along The boulevard of broken dreams. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, Da, da, da, da, da, da, da. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, Da, da, da, da, da, da, da. The joy that you find here, you borrow, You cannot keep it long it seems.

Well, I know that you're tired of living this way,
We've been trying to get high without having to pay. The walls are all empty, it's not a permanent state, Just let me tell you that it's not too late. You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain. You're a drain brain, you go on and on like a blood stain. Well, you know I ain't selfish, there's always a way. If a thing ain't worth having, you're having to pay. You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain. You're a train brain, you go on and on like a blood stain. Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent, I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent. Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne, You stole all my silk but you gave me no change. You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain. You're a train drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

Our chemical devotions of the night
Bring endless labyrinths of vines to light Your silent spell won't bring you home tonight You couldn't open up your veins to light All that blossoms, all that blooms Lies fallow in the night Waits for a golden sunlight All that blossoms, all that blooms Lies fallow in the night Waits for a golden sunlight Our chemical devotions of the night Desanguinate limbs veined with valleys of ice Children of stone your crystal cages align Crown of creation bring me into the light All that blossoms, all that blooms Lies fallow in the night Waits for a golden sunlight All that blossoms, all that blooms Lies fallow in the night Waits for a golden sunlight Our chemical devotions of the night Desanguinate limbs veined with valleys of ice Children of stone your crystal cages align Crown of creation bring me into the light All that blossoms, all that blooms lies fallow in the night, Waits for the golden sunlight. All that blossoms, all that blooms lies fallow in the night, Waits for a golden sunlight. |

I found him by the stage last night, he was breathing his last breath.
A bottle of gin and a cigarette was all what he had left. Well, I know that you make music 'cause you carry a guitar, But God help the troubadour who tries to be a star. Come on and play the chords of love, my friend, Play the chords of fame, But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mi do, Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no. You know I've seen my share of hustlers as they try to take the world And when they find a melody, they're surrounded by the girls. But it all fades so quickly like a sunny summer day, Reporters ask you questions and they write down what you say. Come on and play the chords of love, my friend, Play the chords of fame, But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mi do, Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no. They'll rob you of your innocence, and put you up for sale. The more that you will find success, the more that you will fail. I've been around, I've had my share, and I really can't complain, But I wonder who I left behind on the other side of fame. Come on and play the chords of love, my friend, Play the chords of fame, But if you want to keep your song, do mi, do mi do, Don't play the chords of fame, oh no, no. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, Don't, oh don't, don't play the chords of fame. Don't, oh don't, don't play the chords of fame. Don't ... |

I'll send away all my false pride
And I'll forsake all of my life Yes I'll be as true as true can be If you'll come and stay with me. Lovers of the past I'll leave behind There'll never be another on my mind I'll do all I can so you'll feel free If you come and stay with me The promises I made most faithfully I'll keep them still should you decide to leave I'll try and see that you have all you need If you'll come and stay with me We'll live a life no one has ever known But I know you're thinking that I'm hardly grown I'll do all I can so you'll feel free If you'll come and stay with me. But oh thank God at last and finally I could see you're gonna stay with me |

Au fond de la seine
Il y a de l'or, Des bateaux rouillés, Des bijoux, des armes. Au fond de la seine Il y a des morts. Au fond de la seine Il y a des larmes. Au fond de la seine Il y a des fleurs, De vase et de boue Elles sont nourries. Au fond de la seine Il y a des cœurs Qui souffrirent trop Pour vivre la vie. Et puis des cailloux Et des bítes grises, L'âme des égouts Soufflant des poisons, Les anneaux jetés Par des incomprises, Des pieds qu'une hélice A coupés du tronc. Et les fruits maudits Des ventres stériles, Laits blancs avortés Que nul n'aima, Les vomissements De la grand' ville, Au fond de la seine Il y a cela. O seine clémente O¨' vont des cadavres, Au lit don't les draps Sont faits de limon. Fleuve des déchets Sans fanal ni havre, Chanteuse berçant La morgue, ils le font. Accueille le pauvre, Accueille la femme, Accueille l'ivrogne, Accueille le fou, Míle leurs sanglots Au bruit de tes larmes Et porte leur cœur Et porte leur cœur Et porte leur cœur Parmi les cailloux. Au fond de la seine Il y a de l'or, Des bateaux rouillés, Des bijoux, des armes. Au fond de la seine Il y a des morts. Au fond de la seine Il y a des larmes. |

I can't breathe in the air in this city tonight It's taken everything I had to give And now I just wanna get out of here But I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or your sympathy But for forty-five dollars I can make it You wait and see But I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or your sympathy But for forty-five dollars I can make it You wait and see It's not as if I was just anybody On Broadway I danced for that Senator They know me in London and they know me in Paris I'm only talkin' 'cause you looked like you needed a friend And I won't be sorry if you won't be And I don't want your pity or your sympathy But with forty-five dollars I'm half-way to Miami |

She's a lazy lady today. Always young and new with your eyes on the moon, You're a crazy lady like you said. Crazy lady. Now should I say more before I know you so well ? You're no hazy maiden in gray. How can I be sure ? It's not easy to tell, But you're a crazy lady like you said. Crazy lady. |

Blazing contempt for human life and lies Murder as art and what he knows he knows from life and fear in other people's eyes Crazy love is all around me Love is crazy love is kind But I know somehow you'll find me Love is crazy love is blind She walks the boulevard without a care Knowing too much but having come so far Pretending life is just a game you play for nothing Loving no-one and no-where Crazy love is all around me Love goes crazy given time But I know somehow you'll find me Love is crazy love is blind She looks as if expecting a surprise Maybe an encounter that will change her life Not knowing hot from cold or good for bad If life is just a joke or if it makes her sad Crazy love is all around me Love is crazy love is kind But I know somehow you'll find me Love is crazy love is blind Crazy love is all around me Love goes crazy given time But I know somehow you'll find me Love is crazy love is blind |

Track me down and try to win me Then he motions to me with his hand on my knee Dear God, did this kind of this thing happen to you? Now I'm spreading my legs with his in between Dear God, if I could, I would help you And now I am walking through Rome and there is no room to move But the heart, the heart feels free The heart feels free The heart feels free But the heart feels free The heart feels free |

In the wintertime
Keep your feet warm, Keep your clothes on And don't forget me. Keep the memory, But keep your powder dry, too. In the summer By the pool side While the fireflies Are all around me, I'll miss you when I'm lonely, I'll miss the alimony, too. Don't forget me, please don't forget me, Make it easy on me just for a little while. You know I'll think about you, Let me know you think about me, too. When we're older And full of cancer It doesn't matter now, Come on, get happy, 'Cause nothing lasts forever, And I will always love you. Don't forget me, please don't forget me, Make it easy on me just for a little while. You know I'll think about you, Let me know you think about me, too. You know I'll think about you, Let me know you think about me, too. |

When you're alone
And life is making you lonely You can always go Down town. When you've got worries All the noise and the hurry Seems to hurt, I know. Down town. Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city, Linger on the sidewalks where the neon signs are pretty. How can you lose ? The lights are much brighter there, You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares And go down town. Things will be great when you're Down town. No finer place for sure, Down town. Everything's waiting for you. Don't hang around And let your problems surround you, There are movie shows Down town. Maybe you know Some little places to go To where they never close, Down town. Just listen to the rhythm of the gentle bossa-nova, You'll be dancing with them, too, before the night is over, Happy again. The lights are much brighter there, You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares And go down town. Where all the lights are bright Down town. Waiting for you tonight Down town. You're gonna be all right now. And you may find Somebody kind To help and understand you, Someone who is just like you And needs a gentle hand To guide him along. So maybe I'll see you there, We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares And go down town. Things will be great when you're Down town. Don't wait a minute more, Down town. Everything's waiting for you. |

Crying their mean old blues No me, you never even see me frown.

He swallow me up, when he's lovin' ; hear what I've said Believe me I go out to lick him 'most everyday I'm overflowin' with those easy come, easy go blues. |

I know that woman in the mirror, not quite yours and not quite mine, Who she is can't say for sure, could be from another tide. She's the Queen of Sheba, my father's mother, Her face is low flying Africa. She says to me she is not me, So tell me, tell me who is she ? Tell me, tell me who is she ? You'd think she owns the streets of Dublin, They say she's king of Torquay island, She trades in piracy and sinning She knows where you go at night. And when you think you've finally reached her, She laughs and says, |

Seven years we've been away in the big towns Where you go to make money; And now our fortune's made, And now you're there, Little house in old Louisiana. We're coming back to you, To our little house beside the Mississippi in Louisiana Right, Anna ? ANNA II Yes, Anna. |

I know you're out there having a good time.
Spaced out chicks, love potions and good wine. Don't make me laugh, you're not in there alone, There's other people's voices in the room. Don't hang up ???? I didn't mean it that way, No eye communication ???? always happens this way. How can I say what I mean, mean what I say ? No eye communication always happens that way. I know I shouldn't let it happen, There's no excuse ???? I felt so alone. You know how it is, our lure was meant to trap them ???? And then they find some poison of their own. Don't hang up ???? I didn't mean it that way, No eye communication ???? always happens this way. How can I say what I mean, mean what I say ? No eye communication always happens ... |

[Chorus]
Falling from grace, falling from grace. Lord, you have a pretty face. Take it away and pack it in a suitcase. Then forget about falling from grace. Don't look at me like that, I never said a word. Don't ask me where I've been, I'll pretend I never heard. Don't put it in the paper, please, don't! I never said I will, I never said I won't. [Chorus] It's looking bad, I know, I'm an outlaw. Don't pity me, I never felt like this before. Please tell me you believe me, please say I'll get along without you, anyway. [Chorus] Feeling hunted, I'm lying low. Don't tell me who it is, I never said so. Put yourself in my place, please try. I never told the truth, I never told a lie. [Chorus x 2] [Repeats] Falling from grace. Falling from grace, falling from grace. |

from Marianne Faithfull - 20th Century Blues (1997)
I'm much too sentimental,
My heart is never free. Perhaps it's accidental That love should come to me. Some little thing within me Protects me for a while Till someone comes to win me With only a smile. Falling in love again, Never wanted to. What am I to do? Can't help it. Love's always been my game, Play it, how I may. I was made that way Can't help it. Men cluster to me like moths around a flame And if their wings burn, I know I'm not to blame. Falling in love again, Never wanted to. What am I to do? Can't help it. Sonst gar nichts. Ha! |

Do you remember me, Do you remember anything ? Don't pretend I didn't make you laugh, File it under fun from the past. Well, I'm looking 'round the room Some of the people I've loved. Guess I remember everything File it under fun from the past. I could have been a contender, a contender for your love I would have given you everything if I only knew how. I would have given you everything if I only knew how, only knew how, I could have been a contender, a contender for your love. File it under fun from the past, File it under fun from the past. It was only you, it was always only you. I never saw what other people bought, I never cared what they thought. Well, I'm looking 'round the room, some of the people I've loved, Guess I remember everything. File it under fun from the past. You could have been a contender, a contender for my love.

FLANDYKE SHORE
(Trad; arr;Gil Goldstein-Traditional, arranged by Peter Webster) I went unto my own love's chamber window, Where I had often been before, Just to let her know love unto flandyke shore, Unto Flandyke shore, Never to return to England no more, Never to return to England no more. A? I went unto my love's chamber door, Where I never been before. There i saw a light springing from her clothes, Springing from her clothes, Just as the morning sun when first arose, Just as the morning sun when first arose. A? As I was walking on the Flandyke shore Her own dear father I did need "My daughter she is dead," he cried. "She is dead," he cried. "And she's broken her heart all for the love of thee." So I hove a bullet onto fair England's shore, Onto fair England's shore, Just where I thought my own true love did lay. A? CD/ LP EASY COME EASY GO=2008 |

It comes as no surprise Your face filled with lies Hovers all around me in this room. Clouds hung with my dismay A hot bed where we lay Your every kiss tasting like a tomb. If time becomes a judge, If my body holds a grudge It's just because I needed sanctuary. Your skin under my nails My curiosity that failed To save myself for something that I need. I don't wanna bleed Or bruise up black and blue. Do I deserve these things All for wanting you ? Like some virgin with her cloth I play the goddess coming through Now I play the parting slave All for wanting you. We do things 'cause we must The law of love and lust Comes together just like oil on flame. I looked into your eyes, You saw me naked for a while, How d'you like it in my little nest ? Who was really using who ? In here the scent of you Stains the sheets with memory and lust. When I get back on the street Tell everybody that I meet Maybe these aren't scars, they're only rust. I don't wanna bleed Or bruise up black and blue Do I deserve these things All for wanting you ? Like some virgin with her cloth I play the goddess coming through Now I play the parting slave All for wanting you. |

What is it children that falls from the sky?
Tayi, taya, tayi, aye ya. Mannah from Heaven from most high, Food from the Father, tayi, taye ya. We shall live again, we shall live again, We shall live again, shake out the grief. Peace to your brother, give and take heed, Tayi, taya, it left two feet. One foot extended, snake to the ground, Wave of the Earth, one turn around. We shall live again, we shall live again, We shall live again,shake out the grief, babe. Stretch out your arms now dip and sway, Fruit of thy bird, tayi, taya. Threw off your shoe, haul off the sow, Dust off the words that shape from the tale. We shall live again, we shall live again, We shall live again, shake out the ghost dance. Here we are, Father, here, Holy Ghost, Bread of your bread, host of your host. We are the tears that fall from your eyes, Word of your word, cry of your cry. We shall live again, we shall live again. We shall live again, we shall live. What is it, Father, in your eye, What is this grave sign, eyes to cry. Blood of my baby, well, just what I need. What is it, hide me, way off to speed. Who is it, Father, holy that night? What is it, Father, that moves to the right? What is it, Father, isn't it pain? What is it, Father, that shapes from your main? What is it, Father, supposed to be brave? A lot of questions, the right to live What is it, baby, I can't do. Your mama loves you, I'm dying, too. I won't forget you, never lie I'll always love you till I die... |

Sunday is Gloomy,
My hours are slumberless, Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless Little white flowers will never awaken you Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you Angels have no thought of ever returning you Would they be angry if I thought of joining you Gloomy Sunday Gloomy Sunday With shadows I spend it all My heart and I have decided to end it all Soon there'll be candles and prayers that are sad, I know, let them not weep, Let them know that I'm glad to go Death is no dream, For in death I'm caressing you With the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you Gloomy Sunday Dreaming I was only dreaming I wake and I find you Asleep in the deep of My heart Dear Darling I hope that my dream never haunted you My heart is telling you how much I wanted you Gloomy Sunday |

Great expectations I have to find I want to tell you what it was like My recollection is not too clear So much hope and so much fear. Long conversations into the night Not like that, oh no, not so black and white The great temptation's to try and please you Play with you thought and mind and tease you If I could tell my story in a song I'd have to make it fast, yes it's very long Many shades of grey between the right and wrong. Day for night, night for day All the stories on this way, Feel the fire burn away. So turn the lights down low, come over here Stay with me, don't go, you'll see my characters appear The storyteller's magic doesn't lie He'll make you laugh to make you cry Real for me is real for you What I say is almost true. Day for night, night for day All the stories on its way, Feel the fire burn and play. The story's ended now you're on your own Let's say a little prayer, go home. |

Alas my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously For I have loved you so long Delighting in your company. Greensleeves was all my joy, Greensleeves was my delight. Greensleeves was my heart of gold And who but my Lady Greensleeves ? Alas my love that you should own A heart of wanton vanity So I must laddie think alone Upon your insincerity. Greensleeves ... |
