Iggy Pop - The Passenger (Propaganda)

του Τάσου Ρήτου

Ένα ταξίδι που ποτέ δεν τελειώνει. . . ένα ταξίδι χωρίς προορισμό, χωρίς όρια!
Αν θες, μπες μέσα στο βαγόνι και θα σε πάει αυτό, όπου θέλει. Εσύ το μόνο που έχεις να κάνεις είναι να απολαύσεις την διαδρομή.
I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city’s backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they’re bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city’s a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la
Get into the car
Well be the passenger
Well ride through the city tonight
See the city’s ripped insides
Well see the bright and hollow sky
Well see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city’s ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
cause it just belongs to you and me
So lets take a ride and see what’s mine
Singing...
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his windows eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, let’s ride and ride and ride and ride...
Singing...
Ένα ταξίδι γεμάτο έρωτα, πάθος, φιλίες, γνωριμίες, αλκοόλ, ναρκωτικά, μουσική, ξενύχτια, χωρισμούς, τρέλα, θανάτους, φεγγάρια, παραλίες, βουνά, αστέρια, καταιγίδες, ουράνια τόξα, χιόνια βροχές, λάσπες. . .
Status seekers - I never cared
Once I found out they never dared
To seize the world and shake it upside down
And every stinking bum should wear a crown
Sayin I cry for love
Till all the plates are broken
Cry for love
Until my eyes are soakin
Yeah cry for love
On every salmon morning
Cry for love
cause imitations boring
Cry for love
Bad tv that insults me freely
Still I know what I’m dyin to see
In searching for a meaningful embrace
Sometimes my self-respect took second place
An I cried for love
I did what my heart told me
Cried for love
Cant stand it
When they scold me
Yeah I cried for love
On every salmon morning
Yeah I cry for love
cause imitations boring
Cry for love

Surfers ride for love and wipe out when it hits em
Soldiers kill for love and nobody admits it
If you’re cryin for love well, that’s ok don’t sweat it
If you’re cryin for love then there’s still a chance you’ll get it
Cry for love

Τα βιολιά στριγγλίζουν
κάτω από το μπαλκόνι σου,
ένα σεντόνι απλωμένο
με διάσπαρτα κομμάτια
μιας νύχτας και αναστεναγμούς,
οι ραγισματιές από τα μάτια
σταγόνες ενός ονείρου,
πρώτες αναθυμιάσεις
τα πρώτα θαύματα
που συντονίζουν τα πλοία
και θα τσακιστούν στο λιμάνι μου,
δάσος απροσπέραστο
τυλιγμένο στις φλόγες,
το παιδί απρόσμενα
εκτοξεύεται στο φεγγάρι
και ο πυρήνας εκρήγνυται!
Είσαι η σφαίρα στην κάννη
είσαι και το δάκτυλο στη σκανδάλη,
τα φρένα κομμένα
και τα σώματα στραβά,
στους τετράγωνους θαλάμους
αέρια τοξικά, αναθυμιάσεις!

A howling wind is whistling in the night
My dog is growling in the dark
Something's pulling me outside
To ride around in circles
I know that you have got the time
Coz anything I want, you do
You'll take a ride through the strangers
Who don't understand how to feel
In the death car, we're alive
In the death car, we're alive
I'll let some air come in the window
Kind of wakes me up a little
I don't turn on the radio
Coz they play shit, like....You know
When your hand was down on my dick
It felt quite amazing
And now that, that is all over
All we've got is the silence
In the death car, we're alive
In the death car, we're alive
So come on mandolins, play
When I touched you
I felt that you still had your baby fat
And a little taste of baby's breath
Makes me forget about death
At your age you're still joking
It ain't time yet for the choking
So now we can see the movie and see each other truly
In the death car, we're alive
In the death car, we're alive
I want to hear some mandolins

Μέσα στο βαγόνι είσαι ο εαυτός σου, είσαι ο καθένας μέσα σε όλους τους άλλους, είσαι ότι και οι όλοι οι άλλοι. Ο επιβάτης της ζωής!
Απόλαυσε το ταξίδι μέχρι τα νύχια της χαραμάδας! Αλλά αν θες να κατέβεις, να το σκεφτείς σοβαρά γιατί το τραίνο φεύγει με χίλια για άλλους κόσμους, και μετά είναι δύσκολο να το ξανά φτάσεις!
