Sing Sing

Someone talkin' to my soul
Someone shakin' my knee bone
Someone ringing at my door
And I'm crawling on the floor
I got shivers on my own
I got quivers to the bone
It's contagious
Don't know why
Someone drink
My blood like a glass of wine
Got nowhere to hide
Inside your dirty mind
I wanna say no
But my heart keep sayin' I want more
So I sing sing sing
I'm so prisoner
I'm your thing
I just sing sing sing
I got a ball and chain
And I learn how to swim
I wake up in the morning
My body's achin
I still have no memories
Of what we were doin'
You said the world is filled with crocodiles
You said we're surrounded by sharks
With your white horse
My prince of the darkness
I'm gonna fly away
I'm gonna fly away
Got nowhere to hide
Inside your dirty mind
I wanna say no
But my heart keep sayin' I want more
So I sing sing sing
I'm so prisoner
I'm your thing
I just sing sing sing
I got a ball and chain
And I learn how to swim
Sing sing

Fille d'acier

Fille d'acier je n'aimais personne dans le monde

Je n'aimais personne sauf celui que j'aimais

Mon amant mon amant celui qui m'attirait

Maintenant tout a changé est-ce lui qui a cessé de m'aimer

Mon amant qui a cessé de m'attirer est-ce moi?

Je ne sais pas et puis qu'est-ce ça peut faire tout ça?

Maintenant je suis couchée sur la paille humide de l'amour

Toute seule avec tous les autres toute seule désespérée

Fille de fer-blanc fille rouillée

Ô mon amant mon amant mort ou vivant

Je veux que tu te rappelles autrefois

Mon amant celui qui m'aimait et que j'aimais.

Commercial For Levi

You're the one who's always choking Trojan
You're the one who's always bruised and broken
Sleep may be the enemy
But so's another line
It's a remedy
You should take more time

You're the one who's always choking trojan
You're the one who's showers always golden
Spunk and bestiality well it's an Assisi lie
It's ahead of me
You should close your fly

I understand the fascination
The dream that comes alive at night
But if you don't change your situation
Then you'll die, you'll die, don't die, don't die
Please don't die

You're the one who's always choking trojan
You're the one who's always bruised and broken
Drunk on immorality
Valium and cherry wine
Coke and ecstasy
You're gonna blow your mind

I understand the fascination
I've even been there once or twice or more
But if you don't change your situation
Then you'll die, you'll die, don't die, don't die
Please don't die

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there's some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

She's a rainbow

She comes in colors everywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

She comes in colors everywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

Have you seen her dressed in blue
See the sky in front of you
And her face is like a sail
Speck of white so fair and pale
Have you seen the lady fairer

She comes in colors everywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

Have you seen her all in gold
Like a queen in days of old
She shoots colors all around
Like a sunset going down
Have you seen the lady fairer

She comes in colors everywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

She's like a rainbow
Coming colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

WE CAN CHANGE LIVES - Charity Limited Edition T-Shirt by Neil Barrett for Oxfam Interna

After a conversation with Colin Firth regarding his involvement with Oxfam and Ucodep, I attended a dinner in Villa Medici in Rome; Colin had invited an impressive group of Italian cinema’s most illustrious actors, actresses and directors. At the dinner Colin’s words inspired me to make a personal effort….I had always believed I could do little on my own.Through Colin’s words, enthusiasm and reality I realized that together, each one of us making a small effort collectively makes a difference.

Oxfam International is one of the largest non-governmental organizations in the world, working in over 100 countries to fight poverty and injustice. Ucodep is a non-governmental Italian organization that for over 30 years has supported and initiated development projects from 20 under-developed countries, in the southern hemisphere to promote awareness and support in Italy.

The Oxfam / Ucodep slogan “ WE CAN CHANGE LIVES” underlines this belief.

My personal effort to make a difference took the form of designing and making two LIMITED EDITION T-SHIRTS and donating these to Oxfam.

They are 45 Euros each and available exclusively through http://www.thecorner.com/

FOR HIM….One size, loose with short sleeves

FOR HER…One size, long in length and sleeveless

I ask you to join us in making a contribution to this just cause. Through buying a t.shirt this small contribution can make a big difference… TOGETHER.”WE CAN CHANGE LIVES”

P.s. BUY A T-SHIRT! and hey… it’s a Limited Edition, a great price and with greater consequences for a greater good!

I Wanna Be Yours...

I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
breathing in your dust
I wanna be your Ford Cortina
I will never rust
If you like your coffee hot
let me be your coffee pot
You call the shots
I wanna be yours

I wanna be your raincoat
for those frequent rainy days
I wanna be your dreamboat
when you want to sail away
Let me be your teddy bear
take me with you anywhere
I don’t care
I wanna be yours

I wanna be your electric meter
I will not run out
I wanna be the electric heater
you’ll get cold without
I wanna be your setting lotion
hold your hair in deep devotion
Deep as the deep Atlantic ocean
that’s how deep is my devotion


John Cooper Clarke
