Minneapolis (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Performed by minneapolis
Composed by sonny t.
M p l(l) s
I used 2 play the gig at archie’s bunker
Then i up and joined the jeffersons
I was in a band with lenny kravitz’s mama (your mother)
Friday night was good every now and then
Now i’m old and doin’ so much better (so much better)
Sellin’ the wax out the back o’ my subaru
Now i cut this groove with a group called minneapolis (minneapolis)
In this here groove, they know just what 2 do, do

Chorus:
Mpls funkin’ house from east 2 west
Mpls funkin’ (shut up)
Mpls – clinton listen, a on test
Mpls funkin’ (shut up)
(funkin’)

Other people’s parties they be fightin’
They’re pullin’ the guns and actin’ like a fool
The way i see it, the more good they be writin’
Makin’ u wish that u stayed in a funky school (school)
First class – guitar 101, james brown – second hour
Horn part, u ain’t got none unless u got tower of power
Bootsy will teach u all u need 2 know about the booty bass (y’all are crazy)
And if u can’t play 7, 7 on the drums, u better not show your face (u ain’t funky)

Chorus

Funkin’
Nobody buy my joint, it’s cool cuz i got one (hell yeah)
All the others cut 4 radio and cheat the fan
Good time – take us 2 the stage and watch us move your big butt
Cuz everybody, everybody’s gettin’ funky in this band

Who’s in the band guys?
Sgt. rock (sonny t, yeah, that’s..that’s me) (m) (p)
Sittin’ in from st. paul (we’re the s-t-e-e-l-e-s) (l) (s)
Cutie pie on vocals (jam) (m)
And by way of queens (master t) (p) (l) (s)
Hey, u ain’t supposed 2 be on this record

Mpls funkin’ house from east 2 west
Mpls funkin’ (shut up)
Mpls – clinton listen, a on test
Mpls funkin’
We just keep funkin’
We just keep funkin’
Get funky

Party people steady pumpin’
Party people steady pumpin’

i was at the jabberjaw
cutest boy i ever saw
he was standing behind me
he was such a dream.

he kept looking right my way
i wanna see him every day
randy told me where he lives
in minneapolis

hung around till closing time
i wanna make him mine all mine
told my friends i want to leave
but they embarrassed me

i took out my keys for my car
walked down the street–not very far
he came running after me
he saw me at the entry

minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneap…

he said, ‘i heard you ask about me’
and i responded ‘yes’ quietly
he said, ‘i’m leaving on wednesday
come see me when Low plays’

so i went to see him again
he should be my new best friend
running so romantically
down the street for me.

so he said he’d write or call
cuz i’d be touring in the fall
he said he wanted me to move
but that just won’t do

to minneapolis

Minneapolis (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I’ve been waiting for you to come back
Since you left Minneapolis
Snow covers the streetlamps and the windowsills
The buildings and the brittle crooked trees
Dead leaves of December
Thin skinned and splintered
Never gotten used to this bitter winter

I’ve been wasted, angry and sad
Since you left Minneapolis
I wish my thoughts were pure like the driven snow
Like the heavens and the spring’s virgin buds
But they strangle me with their sin
Fill me up with poison
Black clouds have covered up the sun again

I can always trace it back
To that night in Minneapolis
Here on the seventh floor in a room I can’t call mine
Deadbolt on the door, do not disturb sign
Shaking and trembling
On the clean white linen
Slivers of starlight danced across the ceiling

A dozen yellow roses
All that’s left in Minneapolis
I wish I’d never seen your face or heard your voice
You’re a bad pain in my gut
I wanna spit you out
Open up this wound again
Let my blood flow red and thin
Into the glistening
Into the whiteness
Into the melting snow of Minneapolis
