CANCIONES VARIAS 1


BLANK GENERATION (RICHARD HELL AND THE VOIDOIDS)



I was saying let me out of here before I was even born
It's such a gamble when you get a face
It's fascinatin' to observe what the mirror does
But when I dine it's for the wall that I set a place

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

Triangles were fallin' at the window as the doctor cursed
He was a cartoon long forsaken by the public eye
The nurse adjusted her garters as I breathed my first
The doctor grabbed my throat and yelled,
"God's consolation prize!"

I belong to the blank generation
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

To hold the tv to my lips, the air so packed with cash
Then carry it up flights of stairs and
drop it in the vacant lot
To lose my train of thought and fall into your arms' tracks
And watch beneath the eyelids every passing dot

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the generation but
I can take it or leave it each time

I belong to the blank generation and
I can take it or leave it each time
I belong to the generation but
I can take it or leave it each time






Well, that's just the way it goes
This city is so cold
And I'm ... I'm so-so
That's why I know (I say hey)

Born to lose
Born to lose
Born to lose
Baby I was born to lose

Nothing to do
And nothing to say
Only one thing that I know
It's the only way ... I said hit it!

Born to lose (I say hey)
Born to lose (I say hey)
Born to lose
Baby I was born to lose

Baby I was born to lose

Living in a jungle
It ain't so hard
But living in the city
It'll eat out ... eat out your heart (I said hey)

Born to lose (I say hey)
Born to lose (I say hey)
Born to lose
Baby I was born to lose

Baby I was born to lose
Baby I was born to lose
Baby I was born to…

Born to lose
Born to lose
Born to lose
Baby I'm born too lose

Baby I’m born to lose

Born to lose
Born to lose
Born to lose
Baby I'm born too lose
Baby I'm born too lose
Baby I'm born too lose
Baby I'm born too lose


MAX´S KANSAS CITY (WAYNE COUNTY AND THE BACKSTREET BOYS)





Alright, yeah, alright.
Take a tip from me and get ready for the big parade.
It's the place to be every night's a happy holiday.
The kids are jumping around, everybody's doing loop de loop.
Just a making the rounds like a speed freak in a telephone booth.
The downstairs is packed and the groupies are all dressed up.
Upstairs the New York Dolls are kickin' it out looking tough.
You've got a personality crisis baby.

Chorus: Down at Max's.
All the boys are,
All the girls are,
All the kids are,
Down at Max's.

I see Patti Smith she's the Stagger Lee of rock 'n' roll.
She threw a ?????? and a ????? and she always ????? to hold ????? to hold.
There's Lou Reed and Iggy Pop they're getting higher and higher.
Give them boys one more drink they're gonna set the place on fire.
Go get 'em boys.
The downstairs is packed and the groupies are all dressed up.
Upstairs the New York Dolls are kickin' it out looking tough.
Bad girls - just a lookin' for a kiss.

Chorus: Down at Max's.
All the boys are,
All the girls are,
All the kids are,
Down at Max's.

Blondie's all in a buzz she's on the cover of the New York rocker.
Dee Dee Ramone strips his bass to the bone, he's a blitzkrieg, blitzkrieg, blitzkrieg bopper.
The Heartbreakers they're gonna give you a taste of going steady with Pirate Love.
And you better watch 'em cos the Electric Chairs are gonna fry your brain.
Get 'em hot boys.
The downstairs is packed and the groupies are all messed up.
Upstairs the New York Dolls are kickin' it out looking tough.
Trash, pick it up, you know where, that's right baby.

Chorus: Down at Max's.
All the boys are,
All the girls are,
All the kids are,
Down at Max's.

I ain't talking 'bout San Francisco, no, no, no.
And I ain't talking 'bout Los Angeles, uh, uh, uh.
Now I ain't talking about Detroit City although they gave us the MC5.
I'm talking 'bout New York City.
I'm talking 'bout New York City.
Down at Max's Kansas City.
Down at Max's Kansas City.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, alright, alright.
