Stamattina mia sorella mi ha dato il buon giorno con questa canzone:
Whatever happened to the funky race?
A generation lost in pace,
Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
In this kiss I'll change your bore for my bliss
let go'f my hand and it will slip out in sand
if you don't give me the chance
to break down the walls of attitude,
I ask nothing of you
not even your gratitude
And if you think I'm corny
then it will not make me sorry
it's your right to laugh at me
and in turn, that's my opportunity
to feel brave
'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh in this world all covered up in shame
Every morning I would see her
getting off the bus the
picture never drops it's like a
multicoloured snapshot
stuck in my brain
it kept me sane for a couple of years
as it drenched my fears
of becoming like the others
who become unhappy mothers
and fathers of unhappy kids
And why's that?
'Cause they've forgotten how to play
or maybe they're afraid to feel ashamed
to seem strange
to seem insane
to gain weight
to seem gay
I tell you this:
That it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh in this world all covered up in shame
So, take it to the stage in a multicoloured jacket
take it jackpot, crackpot,
strutting like a peacock
nailvarnish Arkansas
shimmyshammy featherboah crackpot haircut
dye your hair in glowing red and blue,
Do, Do, Do! What you wanna do
Don't think twice to what you have to do,
Do, Do, Do, Do, let your heart decide what you have to do
that's all there is to find
'Cause it takes a fool to remain sane,
Oh, It takes a fool to remain sane
Oh, In this world all covered up in shame
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane,
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh it takes a fool to remain sane
Oh in this world all covered up in shame.
Oh it takes a fool
Oh it takes a fool
A generation lost in pace,
Wasn't life supposed to be more than this?
In this kiss I'll change your bore for my bliss
let go'f my hand and it will slip out in sand
if you don't give me the chance
to break down the walls of attitude,

then it will not make me sorry
it's your right to laugh at me

oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh it takes a fool to remain sane
oh in this world all covered up in shame

The Ark - In Takes a Fool to Remain Sane
Io l'ho riascoltata per la prima volta dopo tipo 10 anni, ho fatto finalmente caso al testo, ci ho meditato su e ho partorito questo:

Bello il disegno,ma gli Ark non si possono gnottere(=sopportare)
io li ho sempre trovati (e continuo a trovarli) troppo '80s come stile, però il testo di questo pezzo mi piace (e me li rende simpatici)
Occavolo, manco me la ricordavo sta canzone...
@Fed:Sempre trovati odiosi,mi prudevano le mani quando li vedevo da qualche parte
Ho sempre adorato questa canzone, praticamente una bandiera!
@Sally: visto che vado ricacciando?
@Massi: ahahaha ma poveri!! a me questo effetto lo fanno i Coldplay invece u.u
@Muscaria: ma lo sai che mentre la ascoltavo ti pensavo??
Molto bella la canzone e molto bello il disegno: mi ricorda Enter The Void (la gamma di colori è la stessa...), che tra l'altro mi ha fatto scoprire mia sorella.
@RQ: non conosco Enter The Void, ma a questo punto mi hai incuriosita :) la gamma di colori è stata dettata soprattutto dal fatto che non ho moltissimi pantone e fra quelli che ho ho cercato di scegliere tonalità un po' funk ;) sono contenta che ti piaccia, grazie ^^
Ah ecco, quindi usi come pretesto la canzone ma in realtà tutti 'sti colori sono causati dallo sniffamento del pantone ;))
Domani rimetto su il cd degli Ark(sì, ce l'ho) e mi metto lo smalto fucsia<3
@Sara: mannaggia... dici che si capisce facilmente? e... mannaggia: così tanto dann ho fatto??
@Fed:Lo fanno anche a me
@Massi: bene, perché quando lo dico di solito la gente mi prende per pazza!
@Fed:Idem,tutti dicono che scrivono bella roba anche se io tutta sta bellezza non la vedo. L'unica bellezza a cui penso quando vengono tirati in mezzo è quella della moglie di Martin
