Illustration musicale: Tanita TIKARAM - twist in my sobriety
Parlant des paroles quelque peu obscures et énigmatiques, Tikaram a proposé différents points de vue sur leur signification, mais a déclaré qu'il s'agissait principalement de la relation particulière avec le monde que l'on ressent en entrant dans l'âge adulte. "La chanson parle vraiment de ne pas comprendre - quand vous avez 18 ans, vous avez une relation émotionnelle très particulière avec le monde, vous vous sentez très isolé et tout le monde est si distant et froid. Et je pense que je chantais à propos de ne pas sentir quelque chose ou ne pas être ému par les choses autour. Je pense que c'est un sentiment fort quand on sort juste de l'adolescence.
All God's children need travelling shoes
Drive your problems from here
All good people read good books
Now your conscience is clear
I hear you talk girl
Now your conscience is clear
In the morning when I wipe my brow
Wipe the miles away
I like to think I can be so willed
And never do what you say
I'll never hear you
And never do what you say
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
We've just poked a little empty pie
For the fun that people had at night
Late at night don't need hostility
The timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thoughts
Different thoughts are good for me
Up in arms and chaste and whole
All God's children took their toll
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
Cup of tea, takes time to think, yeah
Time to risk a life, a life, a life
Sweet and handsome
Soft and porky
You pig out 'til you've seen the light
Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
