Red Light (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation that has nothing to say
How’d you make your way to me?

Let’s say you made a deal with me
And I got your name and your home address
And you’re all trashed up with your big red belt
I would almost say that you might need help
I could drop you off at the next red light
If it don’t make sense or it don’t feel right

All the girls could never make me love them the way I love you

Can’t you see the sky is not the limit no more?
I can see the elevator crashed trough the floor
I can still see yesterday sailing away
Seven billion people who got nothing to say
Are you coming on to me?

I saw your face then I heard that song
It was so inviting it hurt my bones
Well it looks like you but your eyes are grey
And your hair is gone but your mind’s okay
Yes I like your smile but your forehead’s cold
I don’t want you to be afraid and go

I would cheat and lie and steal now I’ll stay at home and kneel for you

I was waiting
For my baby, to arrive
Right by my side

Oh please
Leave me alone tonight
Forget the past

Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Oh you know I said it just to get you to laugh
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation of entertainers to blame

The light is red
The camera’s on.
Get yourself a lawyer and a gun.
Hate your friend’s new friends like everyone.
Childhood’s end can be so competitive,
Oh sky’s not the limit and your never gonna guess what is…

Yeah my baby called up said i done made her mad
She’s takin’ me off for everything that i had
Ran out of town and now she’s come back
Got van halen wailin’ on the stereo eight track
Watch out baby that’s what i said
There’s a red light, road block, bridge out ahead

Here she comes in town runnin’ lickety split
Runnin’ red lights the girl’s mad as shit
Comin’ in town on some slippery road
Ninety miles an hour gonna get my goat
Tack started readin’ in the double red
There’s a red light, road block, bridge out ahead

Well she came up to jack’s bridge but
That bridge wasn’t there
She stomped the ‘cellerator jumped right up in the air
Tires was whinin’ you could hear ‘em sing
That firebird flew like it just grew wings
Landed in my yard and she’s totin’ lead
There’s a red light, road block, bridge out ahead

Well my baby called me ukp said i done made her mad
She’s takin’ me off for everything that i had
Ran out of town and now she’s come back
Got van halen wailin’ on the stereo eight track
Watch out baby that’s what i said
There’s a red light, road block, bridge out ahead.

If it’s the rough stuff ya want
You can point yer finger at me
‘cause i can dish it out good
But i don’t give it away for free
There’s a price for my vice
And i want it in cash
In a plain brown bag
You can put it out by the trash

Chorus:
There’ll be a red light by the window
And a blue light by the car
He’ll be running
But he won’t get far
There’ll be a red light by the window
And a blue light by the car
He’ll be running
But he won’t get far

This modern world deserves a
Modern attitude
You’ve gotta stick it to them
Before they stick it to you
I want the money
And i want it in cash
In a plain brown bag
You can put it out, put it out, put it out by the trash

Chorus repeat

Red light
Blue light
Red light
Blue light
This modern world deserves a modern attitude

You said you’re not going to hell.
But you can’t ask it.
If your running from yourself.
I give you my love.
I give you my love.
Still you walk away.

It’s a bright light child.
As you jump to the street below.
But where can you go
To leave yourself behind?
Lonely on the spotlight,
Your not really traveling.
I give you my love.

Holding the city.
I give my love to you.
And I’ll bring you through.
See your not alone.
I give you my love.
I give you my love.

Sioux: vocals, camera
Severin: synthesizers, rhythm box
Budgie: drums

She falls into frame with a professional pout but the polaroids ignite on seeing their subject and the aperture shuts-too much exposure

Voyeur sucks into focus-floodlit the glossy kiss-pit but as emulsion drips down…down
The aperture shuts-too much exposure

Come into this room-come into this gloom see the red light rinsing another shutterslut wincing the sagging half-wit sister
Pretty, pretty picture
Of an ancient nipple shrinking-that kodakwhore winking ‘til the aperture shuts-too much exposure.
