King of wishful thinking

I don’t need to fall at your feet
Just ‘cause you cut me to the bone
And I won’t miss the way that you kiss me
We were never carved in stone
If I don’t listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself..

I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking

I refuse to give in to my blues
That’s not how it’s going to be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don’t want to let you see.. no
That you have made a hole in my heart
And now I’ve got to fool myself..

I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking..
I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking

I will never, never shed a tear for you
I’ll get over you

If I don’t listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself..

I’ll get over you.. I know I will
I’ll pretend my ship’s not sinking
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking
I’m the king of wishful thinking

I’ll get over you.. I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won’t shed a tear for you
I’ll be the king of wishful thinking
I’ll get over you..
I’ll pretend my heart’s still beating
‘cause I’ve got no more tears for you
I’m the king of wishful thinking..

I’ll get over you.. I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
And I’ll tell myself I’m over you
‘cause I’m the king of wishful thinking

Don’t Mess With My Toot Toot

Recordarán la canción de «No te metas con mi cucu«, de la Sonora Dinamita. Si creían que la canción era completamente original y creada por ellos, vean el siguiente video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHlhJL3IlsQ

Existe desde Octubre de 1984, cuando Rockin’ Sidney la escribió y la incluyó en su album My Zydeco Shoes Got the Zydeco Blues.

Incluso está la versión hecha por John Fogerty, la mente maestra detrás de Creedence Clearwater Revival (el Revival es el bueno, porque el «Revisited» son los mismos músicos, sin Fogerty y no está chido).

 

Murphy dice: Cuando algunas personas dicen «Desde que tengo uso de razón» puede significar aproximadamente una semana.

Born in the U.S.A.

«Born In The U.S.A.»

Born down in a dead man’s town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that’s been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Got in a little hometown jam so they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land to go and kill the yellow man
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says «son if it was up to me»
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said «son don’t you understand now»
Had a brother at Khe Sahn fighting off the Viet Cong
They’re still there he’s all gone
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now
Down in the shadow of penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I’m ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain’t got nowhere to go
Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I’m a long gone daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I’m a cool rocking daddy in the U.S.A.

Nowhere Fast

Lying in your bed and on a Saturday night
You’re sweatin’ buckets and it’s not even hot
But your brain has got the message
And it’s sending it out
To every nerve and every muscle you’ve got

You’ve got so many dreams
That you don’t know where to put ‘em
So you’d better turn a few of ‘em loose
Your body’s got a feeling that it’s starting to rust
You’d better rev it up and put it to use

And I don’t know how I ever thought that I could make it all alone
When you only make it better
And it better be tonight
And we’ll fly away on those angel wings of chrome in your daddy’s car
Waiting there for you tonight
I’ll be there for you tonight

Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you’ll ever need
All you’ll ever need to know
Darlin’, Darlin’-

You and me we’re goin’ nowhere slowly
And we’ve gotta get away from the past
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast

Everybody’s goin’ nowhere slowly
They’re only fighting for the chance to be last
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast
It’s so much better goin’ nowhere fast

Ah…

Stalkin’ in the shadows by the light of the moon
It’s like a prison and the night is a cell
Goin’ anywhere has gotta be heaven tonight
‘Cause stayin’ here has gotta be hell
Dyin’ in the city like a fire on the water
Let’s go runnin’ on the back of the wind
There’s gotta be some action on the face of the earth
And I’ve gotta see your face once again

And I don’t know where I ever got the bright idea that I was cool
So alone and independent
But I’m depending on you now
And you’ll always be the only thing that I just can’t be without
And I’m out for you tonight
I’m comin’ out for you tonight

Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll (ready to roll)
Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you’ll ever need
All you’ll ever need to know
Darlin’, Darlin’-

You and me we’re goin’ nowhere slowly
And we’ve gotta get away from the past
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast

Everybody’s goin’ nowhere slowly
They’re only fighting for the chance to be last
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast
It’s so much better goin’ nowhere fast

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

(We’re goin’ nowhere fast!)

(Ah…)

Put de lime in de coconut

Algunos la recuerdan por un capítulo de Bones, otros por la canción de los muppets, yo la verdad por los créditos finales de Perros de Reserva…

Bruder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime,
His sister had anudder one she paid it for de lime.

She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up.
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut, she call de doctor, woke ‘im up,

Said «doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache,»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
Now lemme get this straight,

You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’ up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’ up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you call your doctor, woke ‘im up,

Said » Doctor, ain’t there nothing’ I can take?»
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?’
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache,»

You put de lime in de coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ togedder
Put de lime in de coconut and you’ll feel better,
Put de lime in de coconut, drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put de lime in de coconut and call me in the morning.»

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.

Brudder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime,
His sister had anudder one she paid it for a lime.
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut and called de doctor, woke ‘im up.

And said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?’
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said, «Doctor, now lemme get this straight,

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’up,
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut. You’re such a silly woman.

Put a lime in the coconut and drink ‘em bot’ together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you’ll feel better.
Put the lime in the coconut, drink ‘em both down,
Put the lime in your coconut, and call me in the morning,

Woo–ain’t there nothin’ you can take?
I say, woo–to relieve your belly ache,
You say, well woo–ain’t there nothin’ I can take?
I say woo–woo, to relieve your belly ache,
You say yow–ain’t there nothin’ I can take,

I say wow–to relieve this belly ache,
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»
I said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»
I said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»
I said, «Doctor you’re such a silly woman.

Put the lime in the coconut and drink ‘em both together,
Put the lime in the coconut, and you’ll feel better,
Put the lime in the coconut and drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning.

Yes, you call me in the morning, You call me in the morning,
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do and if you call me in the morning
I’ll tell you what to do.

El nuevo PepsiCenter es una porquería!!!

Mi reseña del concierto de Bob Dylan que hice en Ticketmaster.com.mx y que, creo, no la han publicado:

Acerca de Dylan sobran palabras, excelente como siempre su interpretación y la música de tantas canciones.

Sobre el pepsicenter, es una porquería de lugar, no hay coordinación del personal a la entrada, a algunas personas ni las revisaban al ingresar, no hay los elementos de seguridad y las salidas de emergencia parecen insuficientes. Lo más lamentable es durante el espectáculo, si compras en la sección General B (De pie) NO VES ABSOLUTAMENTE NADA, ya que el escenario está muy abajo lo que, para uno que es chaparro y para las mujeres, se vuelve incómodo al tener que buscar un hueco entre las cabezas de los demás para ver al artista. La acústica además no es la mejor. Creía que el Foro Sol era el peor escenario de méxico y veo que el pepsi center se gana y por mucho este calificativo.

Del PepsiCenter, un nuevo centro de espectáculos construido atrás del World Trade Center, sólo puedo decir que es una mentada de madre para el público que fuimos. Antes de decidir comprar boletos con dinero que no tengo (dios bendiga las tarjetas de crédito), me puse a investigar un poco sobre ese nuevo lugar llamado pepsi center. En una reseña leí, no recuerdo si en su página oficial o en otra, que el asiento más lejano iba a estar a 48 metros del artista. Fue entonces que decidí comprar boletos de la sección General B, que son de pie y atrás de las butacas principales. Algo así como gayola por que eran los boletos más baratos.

Mi madre siempre me decía «lo barato sale caro» y así fue. En la sección General B (de pie) todos los que medimos menos de 1.70 metros sólo alcanzábamos a ver la sombra de Dylan. Tuvimos que disfrutar el concierto a ciegas y sólo escuchando las canciones. Y aún así, la acústica no es la mejor y no hay pantallas donde puedas ver en gigante a tu artista. Una gran decepción.

A manera de colofón, la seguridad del lugar deja mucho que desear; una sola salida para todos los asistentes me hace dudar que el lugar se pueda evacuar inmediatamente ante cualquier emergencia (sobre todo ahora que los temblores «están de moda»). También al final, aún dentro del recinto, dos borrachos insultándose y casi llegando a los golpes y el personal de seguridad ni sus luces.

Como digo en mi reseña, creía que el peor escenario en México era el Foro Sol, ahora veo que el Pepsi Center se lleva, y por mucho, el adjetivo.

ACTUALIZACIÓN: Una reseña por alguien que sí sabe escribir, no como su servilleta. La sombra de Dylan.
