lyrics by: Billy Corgan
I hear your winter
I hear you rain
I've failed your summer ways
And I feel no pain
I hear what you want
And I feel that way
I hear what you want
And I feel that way
I hear you fade away
And I hear you crawl
I gave my life away
And I feel no pain
And I feel no pain
And I feel no pain
And I feel your pain
And she was my lover so sweet
And she was my angel
And what I've recovered of me
I put into a box underneath my bed
When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
When you lie in your bed
And you lie to yourself
Lie
Lie
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
Bang bang you're dead hole in your head
I hear what you want
And I feel that way
I hear what you want
And I feel that way
[This take, don't give a fuck]
THE BLUE HEARTS "情熱の薔薇"
歌詞といえばブルーハーツでしょう。
数有るイイ歌の中で特に気に入ったのが、この曲で、
特に、『なるべく小さな幸せと なるべく小さな不幸せ なるべくいっぱい集めよう そんな気持ち分かるでしょう』
の部分に強く惹かれました。それと『花瓶に水をあげましょう。』なぜ薔薇ではなくて、
花瓶に水をあげたのか...そこがポイントなんでしょう。
作詞･作曲／甲本 ヒロト
永遠なのか本当か 時の流れは続くのか
いつまで経っても変わらない そんな物あるだろうか
見てきた物や聞いた事 いままで覚えた全部
でたらめだったら面白い そんな気持ち分かるでしょう
答えはきっと奥の方 心のずっと奥の方
涙はそこからやって来る 心のずっと奥の方
なるべく小さな幸せと なるべく小さな不幸せ
なるべくいっぱい集めよう そんな気持ち分かるでしょう
情熱の真っ赤な薔薇を 胸に咲かせよう
花瓶に水をあげましょう 心のずっと奥の方
A TIBE CALLED QUEST "Stressed Out"
トライブの歌詞はヒップホップのなかでもかなり特殊なものでしょう。
金、女、その他もろもろ、クサッタ内容の歌詞が溢れてる中、
トライブは今のヒップホップの失ったものをしっかり持っていました。
彼らのごく普通の生活を語る、スバラシイ歌詞ばかりです。
しかしこの曲はチョット、ヘビーもんです。
lyrics by: Q-Tip,Phife,and Faith Evans
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
When you're face to face with your adversity
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
We're gonna make this thing work out eventually
Yo I ain't one to complain but there's things in the game
(What's your name?) Consequence, I'm tight, burnt like flames
(And why's that?) American dreams, they got this ghetto kid in a fiend
Don't stress that cause it's not in your bloodstream
Your whole being, comes from greatness, d'you remember
Shatan got you caught in the storms of December
And brothers on the block packin nines like September
Crazy situations keeps pockets on slender
Yo I be on the avenue where they be actin brand new
I'm splurgin on these Reebok joints for shorty boo
All of a sudden, I saw these two kids frontin Talkin out they joints but they wasn't sayin nuttin
My hand was on my toolie they was actin unruly
(Say word) Yo word up, yo I was tight caught up
But I swallowed my pride and let that nonsense ride
Because I'm positive it seems that negative dies
Yo we was at the dice game makin these cats look silly
Flamin, steady runnin off at the Willie
I had my cash mixed, my rent due, with my play-dough
I gotta see some loot so all my girls I blow
Shook them shits in my palm let em hit the flo'
Kept my eyeballs scopin for them pigs po-po I got to go on the ave see my parole by fo'
But I gotta steady freak these boys like JoJo
And I was doin it, til I met Ike, Spike, and Mike
One roll, they had my pockets thirstier than Sprite
Yo I know the feelin, when you feelin like a villain
You be havin good thoughts but the evils be revealin
and the stresses of life can take you off the right path (no doubt)
Jealousy and envy tends to infiltrate your staff
We gotta hold it down so we can move on past
all adversities, so we can get through fast, like that
You got the N.W.O. (low cash flow)
Your baby's on the way (and you don't know who)
And crosstown niggaz tryin to (bust at you)
Aiyyo they got me stressed out (and you don't know what to do)
So frame this Kodak black, and vision to my contact
with a poultry scrap, workers get pistol smacked
The switch hittin Queens, niggaz liquid sword spittin
with raw poppy, and now your first love is krill
Your vision of the mil got crept like Hey Lover
Tried to rise to the top, you just couldn't recover
And all I want is my laceration of the pie
to get this whip cream before the water runs dry
Niggaz flashdancin yo I don't know why
You're sick of snitchin, she got you cruisin to the pokey
like Smokey, the stress be tryin to squeeze out a homey
While I be tryin to get star status like Shinobi
So we can build a dynasty, just like the Toby's
And all I want, is the world to know my steez These money hungry niggaz is seven thirty
And got me stressed out like these frog MC's
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
When you're face to face with your adversity
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
We're gonna make this thing work out eventually
Don't worry we gon make it (gonna make it)
Don't worry we gon make it (oh yeah)
Don't worry we gon make it (gonna make it)
We gon make it (gotta make it)
Don't worry we gon make it (gotta make it)
We're gonna make it (we gotta make it)
Don't worry we gon make it (we gonna make it)
We gonna make it (ohhhhhhh)
Don't worry we gon make it (ohhhhhhh)
Don't worry we gon make it (gonna make it)
Don't worry we gon make it (ohhhhhhh)
We gon make it (ahaowwhwwww)
Don't worry we gon make it (ahahwwww)
I know we gonna make it (we're gonna make it)
C'mon baby we gon make it (yeahhhh)
We gon make it (yeahhahhahhhh)
Don't worry we gon make it (we're gonna make it)
We've gotta make it (we've gotta make it)
We've gotta make it (oh yeah)
Know we're gonna make it
We're gonna make it, gonna make it, we gotta make it, know we gonna make it...
2 PAC "Keep Yah Head Up"
この曲は中学の時、本当に聞きまくった曲です。銃弾に倒れ、今は亡き2-パックですが、これを含め、
母親や女性に対する尊敬のことをラップした歌詞が多いです。
この時期の2-パックの音楽は本当にスバラシカッタです。
lyrics by: Tupac Shakur
Little something for my god son Elija and a little girl named Koreem
Some say tha Blacker tha berry
Tha sweeter tha juice
I say, tha darker tha flesh and tha deeper tha roots
I give a hollar to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, but don't nobody else care
I know they like ta beat ya down a lot
And when ya come around tha block brothers clown a lot
But please don't cry, dry ya eyes
Never let up
Forgive but don't forget girl keep ya head up
And when he tells you you ain't nothin
Don't believe him
And if he can't learn ta love ya, you should leave him
Cuz sister you don't need him
I ain't tryin ta gash up, but I just callem how I see 'em
Ya know what makes me unhappy
When brothers make babies
And leave a young mother ta be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman
And out game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women ?
I think it's time ta kill for our women
Time ta heal our women
Be real to our women
And if we don't
We'll have a race of babies
That hate tha ladies that make tha babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right ta tell a woman when and where ta create one
So will tha real men get up
I know your fed up ladies
But keep ya head up
Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter
Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter
I remember Marvin Gay, usta sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing ta be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tuff
I thought we had it rough, we always had enough
I often huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke tha rules
Ran with tha local crew and had a smoke or two
And realize momma really paid tha price
She nearly gave her life, ta raise me right
And all I had ta give her was my pipe dreams
Of how i'd rock tha mic and make it to tha big screen
I'm tryin ta make a dollar out of fifteen cents
It's hard ta be legit and still pay tha rent
And in tha end it seems i'm headin for tha penn
I try and find my friends, but they're blowin in tha wind
Last night my buddy lost his whole family
It's gonna take tha man in me
Ta conquer this insanity
It seems tha rain will never let up
I try ta Keep My Head Up and still keep from getting wet up
You know it's funny when it rains it pours
They got money for wars, but can't feed tha poor
Sad there ain't no hope for tha youth and tha truth is
There ain't no hope for tha future
And then they wonder why we crazy
I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby
We ain't meant ta survive, cause it's a setup
And even though ya fed up
Ya got ta Keep Ya
UA "水色"
母親となったUAですが、彼女の歌詞にはかなり不思議な世界が漂ってます。
"UA"という名前の由来でさえ、スワヒリ語で”花”と”殺す”の二つの意味があるそうです。
とりあえず大人っぽいこのナンバーは最後の方によく歌う曲ですよね。
想いは水色の雫の中でゆれてる
三日月が手のひらにうかぶ この夜に
今ひとたびの 言葉だけ あなたにつたえましょう
溶けては 染みわたるほのかな夜の吐息よ
いとしい涙色のこえで泣く虫と
闇夜を照らす星達の こころにあこがれて
いたずらな はなびら
はるかとおい 雲のたより
わたしは 水色のつばさ おおぞらにひろげ
疲れて とべない日は おおきな木にとまり
愛のことばと かぜのうた 貴方にうたいましょう
季節はかぎりなく 回りつづけてるけど
わたしのこの心に ひかる水色は
いついつまでも かわらない 空と海のいろ
おもいでよ ありがとう
しろい波が 頬をぬらす
青いほしが まぶしすぎて
THE BOOM "東京タワー"
宮沢和史さんの音と歌詞の世界にはいつも驚かされてばかりです。
本当に何曲もスバラシイ歌詞を持つものがたくさんありますが、
今回はマイナ〜ナンバ〜で....。
作詞／作曲： 宮沢和史
いやな噂を聞いて 君を呼び出してみたら
君らしくもない 苦いお酒頼んだ
嘘をつけば誰でも 夜が長く感じる
眠りたくないなら 僕も時計ははずそう
少しずつ 君のことを好きだと知った
少しだけ 君の未来 僕にくれたら
君の生き方全て 変える必要はない
人にはいくつかの やり方があるだけさ
初めてこんな近くで君の顔をながめた
あの日 この席からは見えなかった 東京タワー
少しずつ 君のことを好きだと知った
少しだけ 君の過去を僕にくれたら
少しずつ 君の顔に笑顔がもれた
少しだけ 君の未来 僕にくれたら
君の過去も僕にくれたら
少しずつ 君のことを好きだと知った
少しだけ 君のカケラ 僕にくれたら
RADIOHEAD "Fake Plastic Trees"
Radioheadの歌詞の世界はかなり有名です、これをもとに映画が作られるほどです。
この曲は本当に彼らのスバラシイ世界のほんの一部なんです。
最後の"if I could be who you wanted all the time....."ってとこいいですよね....。
Words by Thom Yorke
her green plastic wateringcan
for her fake chinese rubberplant
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
and it wears him out
and it wears him out
and 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
and it wears me out
it wears me out
and it wears me out
if i could be who you wanted
if i could be who you wanted all the time
SKUNK ANANSIE "Seceretly"
バンドとしてはかなり確立されちゃったバンドだと思うSkunk Anansie......。このSoulfulに歌えるなかにも、激しさを表現できるバンドは、
Skunk Anansieだけです...。その中でかなり聞き惚れた意味しんな一曲です...。
クリップ見ちゃうと...ああ、そいうこと....って納得しちゃうんですけど、
いろいろと考えちゃいます、とにかく.....いい曲だ！！！！！！
Words by Skunk
i've been biding my time, been so subtly kind, i've got to think so selfishly,
'cos you're the face inside of me.
i've been biding my days, you see eveidently it pays, i've been a friend,
with unbiased views, then secretly lust after you.
so now he's gone rusty you're bored and bemused.
you wanna do someone else, so you should be by yourself, instead of here with me,
secretly.
trying hard to think pure, bloody hard when i'm raw, you're talking out so sexually,
'bout boys and girls and your friggin' dreams.
so now you feel lusty,
you're hot and confused.
(so) now you've been busted, you're caught feeling used.
(you had to do) someone else, (you shoulda been) by yourself,
instead of here with me,
secretly,
secretly.
椎名林檎 "幸福論"
これここに のけったの、意外だと思ったアナタ、甘いです....（笑！）。
これは友達とメチャいい歌詞だ。泣けてくるって結論に達したほどの歌詞です..。
特に『素顔で泣いて笑う君のそのままを愛している故に
あたしは君のメロディーやその 哲学や言葉 全てを守り通します
君が其処に生きているという真実だけで幸福なのです』がヒットっす！！
作詞／作曲：椎名林檎
本当のしあわせを 探したときに
愛し愛されたいと考えるようになりました
そしてあたしは君の強さも隠しがちな弱さも汲んで
時の流れと空の色に
何も望みはしない様に
素顔で泣いて笑う君にエナジイを燃やすだけなのです
本当のしあわせは目に映らずに
案外傍にあって気付かずにいたのですが
かじかむ指の求めるものが見慣れたその手だったと知って
あたしは君のメロディーやその
哲学や言葉 全てを
守る為なら少し位する苦労もいとわないのです
時の流れと空の色に
何も望みはしない様に
素顔で泣いて笑う君のそのままを愛している故に
あたしは君のメロディーやその
哲学や言葉 全てを守り通します
君が其処に生きているという真実だけで幸福なのです
THE ROOTS featuring D'Angelo " The 'Notic "
THE ROOTSってけっこうラブ・ソングやりますよね？
しかもけっこう煙り漂うミステリ〜系の.......。
これはあの天下D'Angeloとヤッちたったとても煙り漂うポワポワ、マリファナBrown Sugarモンっす。
素敵なBrown Skin Singerに恋するのもよろしいですな...。
『I'm just sittin here spinning the world on one finger.............
reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer......』
ってとこかなり惚れたんですけど.....。
lyrics by: Black Thought and D' Angelo
This beautiful blend, I knew her through a mutual friend
She was a work of art, a part of my heart from back then
A brown skin singer, with a knack for actin, Alana's whole attraction
Just fractionally based on surface, I got into her mental on purpose
And with alertness, as I flirt with her emotion
Walls we built up out of nervousness was broken
I reminisce on how this Black Thought had her open
Wit da energy that got the whole summertime smokin very hypnotized
When it was time we spent time
It's no way to rewind or prevent
time from slipping away like day, into the dark
and the way that things fall apart, will make some start
to feel more, weak or insecure
But for whatever reason our relationship remain mature
Even when she caught feelings cuz I stay on tour
As I reflect on before, and recap the situation
I guess from experience, comes education
We set on a path to opposite destinations
It's best to chalk it up and add it to the elevation
Then eventually flow on to lost communication
I called but lost all information
And with time forgot it, it's not like I'm all in tears about it
But the fact still remains that I miss the Hypnotic
Chorus: repeat 2X
You're a shinin' star
No matter where you are
For the world to see
What you truly be
She was the hypnotic, and potent as a narcotic
the bizarre logic of it all, is why the clock tick
pages of the calendar flip, we can't stop it
time will either tell the tale, or turn a love toxic
now was she real, or an illusion of this optical
confusion with the accent of ancient Egypt
or could it be that she's the one I was supposed to be with
and together walked this twisted, staircase is somethin realistic
damn, her lips having me addicted to her presence
front page material on essence, a queen, imperial before her
adolescence
and as she grew into a woman she became refine
I never knew another like her in my lifetime
so now I travel through a tunnel of space, without a place
on the face of this earth, with this pain gettin worse
drivin me insane, or release I'm touchin the brink, of sanity
to think of how I can link, or contact her
I was a fool before, but more wise after the fact
I'm analyzin how I'm wantin her back
and wonderin exactly where she could be on the map
I'm just sittin here spinning the world on one finger
reoccuring thoughts of this brown skin singer
yo, the psychotic, the hypnotic, yo check it out
the most melodic hypnotic, yeah
Chorus 4X
You're my shinin star
No matter where you are
Dont know what to say
Was it true to be
B A c k H o M e
