Inglese 2 - Tom's Diner




I am sitting in the morning
at the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter
for the man to pour the coffee
and he fills it only halfway
and before I even argue
he is looking out the window
at somebody coming in.

do do do...

"It is always nice to see you",
says the man behind the counter
to the woman who has come in –
she is shaking her umbrella.
And I look the other way
as they are kissing their hellos,
and I'm pretending not to see them,
and instead I pour the milk.

do do do...

I open up the paper:
there's a story of an actor
who had died while he was drinking –
it was no one I had heard of.
And I'm turning to the horoscope
and looking for the funnies,
when I'm feeling someone watching me
and so I raise my head.

do do do...

There's a woman on the outside
looking inside: does she see me?
No, she does not really see me
'cause she sees her own reflection.
And I'm trying not to notice
that she's hitching up her skirt
and while she's straightening her stockings
her hair has gotten wet.

do do do....

Oh, this rain it will continue
through the morning as I'm listening
to the bells of the cathedral...

[I am thinking of your voice]

Inglese 4 - If I Were a Boy



[Intimacy. Honesty. Commitment.You. Me. Us]

If I were a boy

even just for a day

I'd roll out of bed in the morning

and throw on what I wanted and go

Drink beer with the guys

and chase after girls

I'd kick it with who I wanted
and I'd
never get confronted for it 
cause they stick up for me

If I were a boy

I think I could understand

How it feels to love a girl

I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her

Cause I know how it hurts

When you lose the one you wanted

Cause he's taking you for granted

And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy

I would turn off my phone

Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd
think that I was sleeping alone

I’d put myself first

and make the rules as I go

Cause I know that she’ll be faithful,

waiting for me to come home, to come home.

CHORUS

It's a little too late
for you to come back

Say it's just a mistake,

think i'd forgive you like that

If you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong


But you're just a boy

You don't understand

and you don't understand, ohhhh

How it feels to love a girl

Someday you wish you were a better man

You don't listen to her

You don't care how it hurts

Until you lose the one you wanted

Cause you're taking her for granted

And everything you had got destroyed

But you’re just a boy

Inglese 5 - Hot'n'Cold



You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah, you PMS like a bitch
I would know

And you overthink
Always speak cryptically
I should know
That you're no good for me

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

We used to be just like twins, so in sync
The same energy now's a dead battery
Used to laugh 'bout nothing
Now you're plain boring
I should know
That you're not gonna change

CHORUS

Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bipolar
Stuck on a rollercoaster
Can't get off this ride

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

down, down, down...
