1a canzone al giorno

I Ramones non vogliono crescere

Sabato sera abbiamo visto "Shazam!" un film su uno dei supererori più strampalati della DC Comics (alternativa della Marvel). Divertente e ben fatto. Ma soprattutto con una bellissima canzone ai titoli di coda. Una cover di un brano di Tom Waits dal titolo "I don't want to grow up" fatta dai Ramones nel 1995 e inclusa nel loro ultimo album da studio dal titolo "Adios amigos". Il video che ho scelto è proprio quello tratto dal film. Buon ascolto e buon inizio settimana.

I don't want to grow up (Ramones)

When I'm lyin' in my bed at night I don't wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right I don't wanna grow up

How do you move in a world of fog that's always
Changing things Makes wish that I could be a dog

When I see the price that you pay I don't wanna grow up
I don't ever want to be that way I don't wanna grow up

Seems that folks turn into things that they
Never want The only thing to live for is today...

I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set I don't wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest I don't wanna grow up

I don't wanna have to shout it out I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't wanna be filled with doubtI don't wanna be a good boy scout
I don't wanna have to learn to count I don't wanna have the biggest amount
I don't wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight I don't wanna grow up
They all go out and drinkin' all night I don't wanna grow up

I'd rather stay here in my room Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on grand street
When I see the 5 o'clock news I don't wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes I don't wanna grow up

Stay around in my old hometown I don't wanna put no money down
I don't wanna get a big old loan Work them fingers to the bone

I don't wanna float on a broom Fall in love, get married then boom
How the hell did it get here so soon I don't wanna grow up
