A Case Of You


Just before our love got lost you said,
"I am as constant as a northern star."
And I said, "Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar."
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada...

With your face sketched on it twice
You are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet.

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints

I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time you told me, you said,
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
You're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you, oh...my darling
And I would still be on my feet
And I would still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
She said,
"Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed"
You are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you,my darling
Still I will be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

de Joni joni joni Mitchell posiblemente la versión de Prince/ esa con aquella hermosa parte de piano/ y como si tuviera un reflejo en el ojo/ una carambola de distintas ventanas/ glaciares/ diamantes soñadores/ ventanillas de trenes ballenas/ ecos de un instante remoto en la infancia/ posiblemente un glimp de amor puro/ puro/ como sentados en el borde del muelle pero en realidad/ sentados en la punta de la grua que construye aquella alta torre con amenitis donde después de dejarse caer nunca vivirán/ piense carajo! 180!... es un buen número/ y buscando por ahí en todas la calles/ pero nunca recordando que esas calles son parte de esa ciudad donde quedaste atrapado en el sueño de ella/ vas a seguir buscando/ voy a seguir buscando/ a robar un banco para comprar tres discos un libro y una fibra negra/ para seguir dibujando... 
escribirte estas cosas que nunca te llegan que pronto
nada han de ser

mientras tonto sonrío

son esferas de colores sujetas a la ley de la gravedad contenidas en un espacio cúbico con una clara tendencia a moverse como esferas líquidas: azules, naranjas, verdes, magentas, violetas. caen desde lo alto y se disponen una sobre la otra al azar y es nuestra meta retirarlas siempre como mínimo de a pares. despejar la pantalla. pasar al otro nivel. es mi actividad carcelaria, mi muralla mental china, mi picapiedrear. y mientras tanto escucho música, pienso, voy de un lado al otro. estoy al pedo con cierto estilo.
bobo bobo bobo. el record del bobo.

o este periplo: Rembrandt "La ronda nocturna" (1640) / King Crimson "The night watch" (1974) / Peter Greenaway  "Nine Classical Paintings Revisited" (2007)...

Shine, shine, the light of good works shine
The watch before the city gates depicted in their prime
That golden light all grimy now
Three hundred years have passed
The worthy Captain and his squad of troopers standing fast

The artist knew their faces well
The husbands of his lady friends
His creditors and councillors
In armour bright, the merchant men

Official moments of the guild
In poses keen from bygone days
The city fathers frozen there
Upon the canvas dark with age

The smell of paint, a flask of wine
And turn those faces all to me
The blunderbuss and halberd-shaft
And Dutch respectability

They make their entrance one by one
Defenders of that way of life
The redbrick home, the bourgeoisie
Guitar lessons for the wife

So many years we suffered here
Our country racked with Spanish wars
Now comes a chance to find ourselves
And quiet reigns behind our doors
We think about posterity again

And so the pride of little men
The burghers good and true
Still living through the painter's hand
Request you all to understand

EN CASO DE EMERGENCIA rompa el "vidrio" y cante:

"Don't worry about a thing, 'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!.../ Singin' sweet songs of melodies pure and true, sayin', this is my message to you-ou-ou:" o en su caso "Here is a little song I wrote you might want to sing it note for note don't worry be happy in every life we have some trouble when you worry you make it double Don't worry, be happy...... "
