Curtains (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

The curtains never fall – they only rise
At the cosmic theatre
standing ovations came at the 15 billion-mark”

Blurs and vague impressions aside –
the engineer, the director
had the galaxies disposed, and then exposed
for the explorers who never took an answer for an answer

A matter of time – not space
How far linearity has permitted us to see
Outwards means backwards in a universe so vast
Stretched in time, see it commence
– a set of celestial fragments
at immeasurable expanses

How far a flicker can force itself
Through dimness, through fields of emission
The shine slowly turning red
A burgundy sense of distance

An overturned curtain call
– the velvety draperies eternally rising
into infinite blurs of timelessness
for an audience correctly dressed in
extravagant suits of flaming curiosity
The witnesses and surveyors of celestial enchantment

Hunted by distance and time
The curtain reluctantly withdraws
A prelude to the swirling drama:
creation – formation – design
or deduction – destruction – collapse
– all depending on the angle

Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album captain fantastic and the brown dirt cowboy

I used to know this old scarecrow
He was my song, my joy and sorrow
Cast alone between the furrows
Of a field no longer sown by anyone

I held a dandelion
That said the time had come
To leave upon the wind
Not to return
When summer burned the earth again

Cultivate the freshest flower
This garden ever grew
Beneath these branches
I once wrote such childish words for you

But that’s okay
There’s treasure children always seek to find
And just like us
You must have had
A once upon a time

The curtains were made for moving
Cause you know sometimes your not always there
You don’t need it now, your head’s shaped like a cow
Till all is here, the world’s just a sphere
No bigger than the balls you suck

Hey you with your hat down
Don’t you know that can’t be where it’s always at?
You’ve all been always there, your head’s shaped like a pear
You search thru the light, instead of jumped in the pie
Of life that you slice till it’s just dry.

You’re so often seen along
The westside wheel of the meals that you steal
To get around the coaching of this loss
It’s always made you feel the best
You always made less and less of the casual forces
That lead you away from the nest.

I know your face, it’s all out of place.

Oh, draw the blinds
We can shut out the night
Oh, pull up the blankets
Pull the blankets up tight

And there are angels on our curtains
They keep the outside out
And there are lions on our curtains
They lick their wounds
They lick their doubt

[verse 1]
Bust it, from the dick i’m dissin all yall punk crews
Y’all wack and won’t even think of punchlines i don’t use
And to the niggas whose lp’s i kinda liked
I’m fresher than that, and that new shit you tryin to write
Like mita, mita, name not rashita
Battle on the streets so when i’m playin senorita
Spend a few peso on some chili con queso
Thinkin how i used to wax rappers back that eso
Be in san juan, on the carriage like i’m cam’ron
Wit a nigga tryin to chew my tampon with my pants on
I’m gettin money off the books like i’m beatnuts
Make em sign pre-nups, word to my c-cups
Fuck with they heads like kahlua, milk and vodka
Then tell they punk ass to move on like silkk the shocker
Word to my godfather, who bombs harder
Be out to get the paper like inga and shawn carter

Hook 2x:
All you mc’s better stand your ground
Cuz when digga come around it’s curtains
Curtains, curtains, curtains, curtains, curtains
(curtains on all y’all, curtains on all y’all, curtains on all y’all
Curtains on all y’all)
When digga come down

[verse 2]
Some people say when i drink i don’t act right
Raisin my voice, i see some bitch and start a cat fight
Or in my travels, grabbin slices from s’barro’s
Eyein fake niggas like they intimate apparel
20,000 seaters, heads givin me pounds
Even biggin me for shit i did for lyricist lounge
Like, "how can i be down?", hoes i don’t trust ya
Playin me close so i can hook you up with busta
Fuck an entourage, i’m the bitch that roll dolo
More still than mo-mo’s and a 4-4 on my polo
With the toaster, make ya run like sammy sosa
Could take about 50 mc’s like tony tocca
Why you take it there? cuz i’m fruitier than kiwi
And when i freestyle you aint gon hear it on my cd
Money management, cuz i’m grown up and older now
Drinkin mad low and brow, tell em how it’s goin down
Bricks, bricks, cuz i was born in the bricks
Bricks, bricks, and shit is on in the bricks
Come at me twisted if ya think you got the heart to
But you better be careful what you say like sparkle
Bricks, bricks, you get jacked in the bricks
Bricks, bricks, and i’m the mack in the bricks
Uh, i got niggas that’ll run you over backwards
And bitches that’ll milk you, plus give you the package

Hook 4x

Originally performed by elton john. jeff performed it live at mercury lounge, new york, on december 31 1995.
I used to know this old scarecrow
He was my song
My joy and sorrow
Cast alone between the furrows
Of a field no longer sown by anyone

I held a dandelion
That said the time had come
To leave upon the wind
Not to return
When summer burned the earth again

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh…

Cultivate the freshest flower
This garden ever grew
Beneath these branches
I once wrote such childish words for you

But that’s okay
There’s treasure children always seek to find
And just like us
You must have had
A once upon a time
