Joshua Kadison - Jus' Like Brigitte Bardot





Neffertiti came out west in a stolen limousine.
Twenty dollars to her name and a walk like you ain't never seen.
She moved into number eight with just a bottle in her hand,
an old radio wrapped up in it's cord and no particular plan.
I watched her in the hallway. She blew me a little kiss
and said, "Hey, baby, what's a boy like you, doin' in a place like this?"

Then she said, "Well, I hate to be the one to have to give you the news,
but this world ain't nothin' but a one way ticket to the blues."

Chorus:
Then she said, "Baby," she said, "Baby...
Baby, can you help me find a soul station on this old radio?
And we can steal us a little salvation if you got no place else to go.
Oh, baby, can you help me find a soul station? I'm feeling kinda low
and if you use your...use your 'magination,
baby, I dance jus' like Brigitte Bardot."

I was sweepin' a warehouse floor 'cross town midnight to eight.
If my ship was ever comin' in, it sure was dockin' late.
Neffertiti was dancin' six nights at a club jut off the strip.
After work we'd meet for breakfast, I'd help her count up all her tips.
She'd stuff some money in my pocket and say, "Baby, go back home.
Now what you tryin' to prove, boy, in this city all alone.

Then she said, "Well, I hate to be the one to have to give you the news,
but this world ain't nothin' but a one way ticket to the blues."

CHORUS

Spoken:
She'd say, "Mamma must be worried sick about you."
She'd make me send home letters every... 'bout every month or so.
So I'd be there writing at her kitchen table
and Neffertiti'd be dancin' to the sweet soul music playin' on her radio.

"Mamma wants to rock you, rock you slow,
to the sweet soul music on the radio."

CHORUS

Neffertiti came out west in a stolen limousine

Johnny Cash - The Man Comes Around



And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder: One of the four beasts saying: "Come and see." And I saw. And behold, a white horse.
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names. An' he decides who to free and who to blame. Everybody won't be treated all the same. There'll be a golden ladder reaching down. When the man comes around.

The hairs on your arm will stand up. At the terror in each sip and in each sup. For you partake of that last offered cup, Or disappear into the potter's ground. When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers. One hundred million angels singin'. Multitudes are marching to the big kettle drum. Voices callin', voices cryin'. Some are born an' some are dyin'. It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree. The virgins are all trimming their wicks. The whirlwind is in the thorn tree. It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom. Then the father hen will call his chickens home. The wise men will bow down before the throne. And at his feet they'll cast their golden crown. When the man comes around.

Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still. Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still. Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still. Listen to the words long written down, When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers. One hundred million angels singin'. Multitudes are marchin' to the big kettle drum. Voices callin', voices cryin'. Some are born an' some are dyin'. It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree. The virgins are all trimming their wicks. The whirlwind is in the thorn tree. It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

In measured hundredweight and penny pound. When the man comes around.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts, And I looked and behold: a pale horse. And his name, that sat on him, was Death. And Hell followed with him.

Apple - Introducing iOS 5

Herberto Helder

Há uma árvore de gotas em todos os paraísos.
Com o rosto molhado,
eu posso ficar com o rosto molhado,
com os olhos grandes.
Neste lugar absoluto pelo sopro,
fervem as víboras de ouro aos nós
sobre as pedras enterradas.
Leopardos
Lambem-me as mãos giratórias.
E eu abro a pedra para ver a água estremecendo.
A água embebeda-me.
Como nos corredores de uma casa gira o ar,
brilha como entre os dedos.
- A minha vida é incalculável.
