The Little Death/...House Burned Down
So I turned on the radio and everyone was
listening to chicken jazz...
See that man over there...
He's got cold feet
He'd march to the drum
But the drummer's
Dead beat
He's fragile tonight
But he says he's clean
He's uncertain when he's speaking
But he knows what he means
Ah he's shivering now
But he don't look cold
He say
Turn up the weather
So I do as I'm told
Do you know about empty
Die a little inside
Cos he hasn't lived until he's died
You couldn't have lived until you've tried
He hasn't lived until he's died
The Little Death...
See that woman over there
She got cold feet
She'd march to the drum
But the drummer's
Dead beat
She reach for the sky
But the sky turn black
She hanging by her nails
but her knuckles just cracked
She said, "It's strange but nice to have no
future or past
If you can't stand the heat
you just turn up the gas"
I nod as if I know she can't say I haven't tried
Cos she hasn't lived until she's died
you couldn't have lived until you've tried
She hasn't lived until she's died
The Little Death...
La Pequeña Muerte/...La Casa se Quemó
Así que encendí la radio y todos estaban
escuchando jazz de pollo...
Mira a ese hombre allí...
Tiene los pies fríos
Marcharía al ritmo del tambor
Pero el baterista
Está agotado
Está frágil esta noche
Pero dice que está limpio
Está inseguro cuando habla
Pero sabe lo que quiere decir
Ahora está temblando
Pero no parece tener frío
Dice
Sube el clima
Así que hago lo que se me dice
¿Sabes acerca del vacío?
Muere un poco por dentro
Porque no ha vivido hasta que ha muerto
No podrías haber vivido hasta que lo has intentado
No ha vivido hasta que ha muerto
La Pequeña Muerte...
Mira a esa mujer allí
Tiene los pies fríos
Marcharía al ritmo del tambor
Pero el baterista
Está agotado
Ella alcanza el cielo
Pero el cielo se vuelve negro
Está colgando de sus uñas
pero sus nudillos se acaban de romper
Ella dijo, 'Es extraño pero agradable no tener
futuro ni pasado
Si no soportas el calor
simplemente subes el gas'
Asiento como si supiera que no puedo decir que no lo he intentado
Porque no ha vivido hasta que ha muerto
No podrías haber vivido hasta que lo has intentado
No ha vivido hasta que ha muerto
La Pequeña Muerte...
