Le costruzioni degli Housemartins

Per la canzone di oggi ho adottato il metodo "scorri e scegli". Ho aperto il file con le quasi 5000 canzoni pubblicate. L'ho scorso col mouse senza guardare e mi sono fermato. Ho letto i nomi degli interpreti di quella pagina e ho cercato qualcos'altro che non avevo messo. Mi sono fermato sulla lettera "T" in ordine alfabetico per interprete e tra gli altri c'erano i The Housemartins. Ho scelto loro e la canzone "Build" dall'album "The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death" del 1987. Spero vi piaccia..... Buona domenica!!

Build (The Housemartins)

Clambering men in big bad boots
Dug up my den, dug up my roots
Treated us like plasticine town
They built us up and knocked us down

From Meccano to Legoland
Here they come with a brick in their hand
Men with heads filled up with sand
It's build

It's build
A house where we can stay (ba ba ba ba build)
Add a new bit everyday (ba ba ba ba build)
It's build
A road for us to cross (ba ba ba ba build)
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots (ba ba ba ba build)

Whistling men in yellow vans
They came and drew us diagrams
Showed us how it all worked out
And wrote it down in case of doubt

Slow, slow and quick, quick, quick
It's wall to wall and brick to brick
They work so fast it makes you sick
It's build

It's build
A house where we can stay (ba ba ba ba build)
Add a new bit everyday (ba ba ba ba build)

It's build
A road for us to cross (ba ba ba ba build)
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots and lots (ba ba ba ba build)

Oh build
It's build
It's build

Down with sticks and up with bricks
In with boots and up with roots
It's in with suits and new recruits
It's build

It's build
A house where we can stay (ba ba ba ba build)
Add a new bit everyday (ba ba ba ba build)
It's build
A road for us to cross (ba ba ba ba build)
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots (ba ba ba ba build)

It's build
A house where we can stay (ba ba ba ba build)
Add a new bit everyday (a ba ba ba build)
It's build
A road for us to cross (ba ba ba ba build)
Build us lots and lots and lots and lots (ba ba ba ba build)
