THE POETRY OF A GRINDERMAN

- Frequenze Song for the Lovers -


Solo per ribadire che lassù in alto, fra le maestà di questi anni musicali, in un grande palazzo di note e poesie, ci sono loro. Bad Seeds, Grinderman, chiamateli come volete, poco importa.
Dedicate questo brano a chi amate.


Grinderman
Palaces of Montezuma
da 
2010 -  Mute

 
Psychedelic invocations Of Mata Hari at the station
I give to you
A Java princess of Hindu Birth A woman of flesh a child of earth
I give to you
The hanging gardens of Babylon Miles Davis the black unicorn
I give to you
The Palaces of Montezuma And the Gardens of Akbar's tomb
I give to you
The spider Goddess and the Needle Boy The slave-dwarves they employ
I give to you
A custard-coloured super-dream Of Ali McGraw and Steve McQueen
I give to you

C'mon baby, let's get out of the cold
And give me, give me, give me your precious love for me to hold

The epic of Gilgamesh A pretty little black A-line dress
I give to you
The spinal cord of JFK Wrapped in Marilyn Monroe's negligee
I give to you
I want nothing in return Just the softest little breathless word
I ask of you
A word contained in a grain of sand That can barely walk can't even stand
I ask of you

Oh c'mon baby, let's get out of the cold
And gimme gimme gimme your precious love for me to hold
