Músicas cujas letras valem a pena serem conhecidas - extremamente líricas.

1) Nick Drake - Day is done



When the day is done
Down to earth, then sinks the sun
Along with everything that was lost and won
When the day is done.

When the day is done,
Hope so much your race will be all run.
Then you find you jumped the gun,
Have to go back where you began,
When the day is done.

When the night is cold,
Some get by but some get old,
Just to show life's not made of gold -
When the night is cold.

When the bird has flown,
Got no-one to call your own,
Got no place to call your home -
When the bird has flown.

When the game's been fought,
You speed the ball across the court;
Lost much sooner than you would have thought.
Now the game's been fought.

When the party's through,
Seems so very sad for you...
Didn't do the things you meant to do:
Now there's no time to start anew,
Now the party's through.

When the day is done
Down to earth, then sinks the sun
Along with everything that was lost and won
When the day is done.

2) Radiohead - Fake plastic trees



Her green plastic watering can
For her fake Chinese rubber plant
In the fake plastic earth,
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans
To get rid of itself,

It wears her out, it wears her out,
It wears her out, it wears her out.

She lives with a broken man,
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns.
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins.

It wears him out, it wears him out,
It wears him out, it wears him out.

She looks like the real thing,
She tastes like the real thing:
My fake plastic love!
But I can't help the feeling,
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run...

It wears me out, it wears me out,
It wears me out, it wears me out.

If I could be who you wanted...!
If I could be who you wanted all the time,
All the time...

3) The Beatles - Eleanor Rigby



Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been -
Lives in a dream -
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door -
Who is it for?

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear.
No one comes near.
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name.
Nobody came.
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave -
No one was saved

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

4) The Smiths - Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me



Last night I dreamt
That somebody loved me.
No hope, no harm,
Just another false alarm...

Last night I felt:
Real arms around me.
No hope, no harm,
Just another false alarm...

So, tell me how long
Before the last one?
And tell me how long
Before the right one?

The story is old - I know,
But it goes on...
The story is old - I know,
But it goes on.

Hermes.
