Norah Jones: Happy Pills




Trying to pick up the pace
Trying to make it so I never see your face again
Time to throw this away
Wanna make sure that you never waste my time again

How does it feel
Oh, how does it feel to be you right now, dear?
You broke this apart
So pick up your piece and go away from here

Please just let me go now
Please just let me go
Would you please just let me go now?
Please just let me go

Out, I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head, get out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head, get out

Never said we'd be friends
Trying to keep myself away from you
Cause you're bad, bad news
With you gone, I'm alive
Makes me feel like I took happy pills
And time stands still

How does it feel?
Oh how does it feel to be the one shut out
You broke all the rules
I won't be a fool for you no more, my dear

Please just let me go now
Please just let me go
Would you please just let me go now?
Please just let me go ...

Out, I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head, get out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out
I've gotta get you out of my head, get out

Aksel Schiøtz: Saa bittert var mit Hjerte



Saa bittert var mit Hjerte (Klagesang)

Saa bittert var mit Hjerte,
saa mødig var min Fod,
saa syg og ensom var min Sjæl
da jeg ved Maalet stod.
De sultne Krager skriger vildt,
hvor sorte Storme gaar.

Kom Vaar!
Kom Danmarks blide Sommer.
Kom blomsterbroget Vang.
Kom gylden Dag og hvide Nat
Kom søde Fuglesang.

Men Træets magre Grene
er i fortvivlet Trods
strakt op mod Mørkets vilde Hær,
som gaar henover os.
Nu falder Spurven død til Jord
og Mulden gør sig haard.

Kom Vaar!
Kom Danmarks blide Sommer.
Kom blomsterbroget Vang.
Kom gylden Dag og hvide Nat.
Kom søde Fuglesang.

Men fattigst fryser Korset,
som et froststivnet Raab,
de tomme Hænder bærer kun
paa et korsfæstet Haab.
Urolig er de Dødes Søvn,
de mindes deres Saar.

Kom Vaar!
Kom Danmarks blide Sommer.
Kom blomsterbroget Vang.
Kom gylden Dag og hvide Nat.
Kom søde Fuglesang.

Norah Jones: Killing Time

Norah Jones

Bet you’re gonna cry when I’m gone
Bet you’re gonna cry when I’m gone
What a time to be wrong
What a time to be wrong

I know I’m gonna be missed
Yeah I know I’m gonna be missed
What a way to be tricked
What a waste of a trip

Never thought the day would have come,
when I couldn’t get up and run
See you’ve given me gold,
and it weighed down my soul

But can I see if tomorrow will
turn back to yesterday?
Or have I gone too far
to turn it back all the way?

How can it take so long?
I know that I’m killing time all alone
but it’s dying too slow

Why did I take so long?
I know that I’m just killing time all alone
but it’s dying too slow

Bet you’re gonna cry when I’m gone
Bet you’re gonna cry when I’m gone
What a time to be wrong
What a time to be wrong

Vocal and lyrics: Norah Jones & Brian Burton
Album: Little Broken Hearts, 2012 (bonus disc)

The Beatles: When I'm Sixty Four


The Beatles: When I'm Sixty Four

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?

If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride

Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck and Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away

Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

Whoo!
