Fresca e fofa!

A partir de agora publicarei, num post semanal, a cada segunda-feira, uma música que goste e queira dar a conhecer. Como já fiz com antes, porei a letra juntamente com o respectivo mp3 na MusicBox. Esta semana temos uma música do novo álbum de Fiona Apple, de 2005 (Extraordinary Machine). É uma música ao estilo típico dela mas com uns pozinhos diferentes, uma vez que ela mudou de produtor neste novo trabalho. Quanto a mim está ao seu melhor nível, as usual! Esta música, pela sua letra, melodia e vocalização, merece o prémio pão de plástico: “fresca e fofa”!



I certainly haven't been shopping for any new shoes
And I certainly haven't been spreading myself around
I still only travel by foot and by foot, it's a slow climb,
But I'm good at being uncomfortable, so
I can't stop changing all the time

I notice that my opponent is always on the go
And won't go slow, so's not to focus, and I notice
He'll hitch a ride with any guide, as long as
They go fast from whence he came
But he's no good at being uncomfortable, so
He can't stop staying exactly the same

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

I seem to you to seek a new disaster every day
You deem me due to clean my view and be at piece and lay
I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way, and say,
I've been getting along for long before you came into the play

I am the baby of the family, it happens, so
Everybody cares and wears the sheeps' clothes while they chaperone
Curious, you looking down your nose at me, while you appease
Courteous, to try and help - but let me set your mind at ease

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

Do I so worry you, you need to hurry to my side? It's very kind
But it's to no avail; I don't want the bail
I promise you, everything will be just fine

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me
Be kind to me, or treat me mean
I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
