Jim CARROLL BAND : "People who died" (1980)
=--=Publié dans la Catégorie "La Chanson du Jour, par The Reverend..."=--=
L'emmerdant avec la Mort, c'est qu'elle n'a aucun sens de l'humour.
Tout ce qui l'intéresse, c'est d'arriver à ses fins, par tous les moyens.
Faire du chiffre, augmenter le rendement, économiser sur la main d'oeuvre, réduire les frais généraux, délocaliser à outrance, uniformiser la production, tout cela est mortellement prévisible. La Mort doit sûrement avoir le visage de Jean-Marc Sylvestre, ou pire, celui d'Alain Minc.
No fun.
C'est une salope ultra-libérale qui manque désespérément d'imagination: quand on le lui fait remarquer, elle monte sur ses grands chevaux apocalyptiques en ramenant tout au principe de réalité.
Mais elle oublie une chose : elle n'est rien sans nous.
Teddy sniffing glue, he was 12 years old
Fell from the roof on East Two-nine
Cathy was 11 when she pulled the plug
On 26 reds and a bottle of wine
Bobby got leukemia, 14 years old
He looked like 65 when he died
He was a friend of mine
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
G-berg and Georgie let their gimmicks go rotten
So they died of hepatitis in upper Manhattan
Sly in Vietnam took a bullet in the head
Bobby OD'd on Drano on the night that he was wed
They were two more friends of mine
Two more friends that died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Mary took a dry dive from a hotel room
Bobby hung himself from a cell in the tombs
Judy jumped in front of a subway train
Eddie got slit in the jugular vein
And Eddie, I miss you more than all the others
And I salute you brother
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Herbie pushed Tony from the Boys' Club roof
Tony thought that his rage was just some goof
But Herbie sure gave Tony some bitchen proof
"Hey," Herbie said, "Tony, can you fly ?"
But Tony couldn't fly, Tony died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Brian got busted on a narco rap
He beat the rap by rattin' on some bikers
He said, "Hey, I know it's dangerous, but it sure beats Riker's"
But the next day he got offed by the very same bikers
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Teddy sniffing glue, he was 12 years old
Fell from the roof on East Two-nine
Cathy was 11 when she pulled the plug
On 26 reds and a bottle of wine
Bobby got leukemia, 14 years old
He looked like 65 when he died
He was a friend of mine
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
G-berg and Georgie let their gimmicks go rotten
So they died of hepatitis in upper Manhattan
Sly in Vietnam took a bullet in the head
Bobby OD'd on Drano on the night that he was wed
They were two more friends of mine
Two more friends that died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Mary took a dry dive from a hotel room
Bobby hung himself from a cell in the tombs
Judy jumped in front of a subway train
Eddie got slit in the jugular vein
And Eddie, I miss you more than all the others
And I salute you brother
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died

Même si à l'époque (1980) on ne dormait pas beaucoup, "Catholic Boy" de Jim Carroll avec sa belle pochette signée Annie Leibovitz était un disque de chevet.
