'sing and filks
Hello to you all in Israfilk. I don’t think I’ve posted here before. Wanted to thank you for a great ‘sing last night. I miss you and I still have a lot of singing in me. Hope we can do it again soon (though work schedule being what it is…)
Anyway, here are three originals, two from last night, one from before.
שוכב לי על הגב
(ברק ברודו לנעימה של אריאל זילבר)
אני שוכב לי על הגב
בתוך המנורה
רואה כיצד חולפים חיי
בבטלה כפויה
אני שוכב לי על הגב
זומם, חולם, הוזה
קבור לנצח בחולות
- כזהו החוזה
בלי לשאול בעצתו
הגיתי משאלה
קיבלתי כל מה שליבי
ייחל, ביקש, רצה
בין תקוה ובין יאוש
אני עודי סופר
חבוי לי בין דיונות החול
גרגר ועוד גרגר
היו לי פעם חלומות
הגשמתי את כולם
עיסקה מוצלחת בשבילי
טובה גם בשבילם
עכשיו כשלא נותר יותר
דבר עוד להגשים
אני ממתין בסבלנות
לבוא האנשים
אני חזק וכל יכול
יצור של אגדה
תקוע בלי אוויר לנשום
בתוך המנורה
עם תבוא ותשפשף
אגשים כל משאלה
פשוט כואב לי כבר הגב
ויש לי קצת פזילה
אז אני שוכב לי על הגב
בתוך המנורה
רואה כיצד חולפים ימי
בבטלה כפויה
אני שוכב לי על הגב
זומם, חולם, הוזה
רק שיבוא איזה תייר
יוציא אותי מזה.
Jolene - Actress' Mania
(By Barak Brudo TTTO 'Joleane' by Dolly Parton)
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming mane of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of sparkling brown
You smile and wave and autograph
Give interviews to talk-shows crowds
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
I never smile or make a face
My Vulcan calm has lost its base
Yet he is always seeing you, Jolene
Your face is so much like my own
Yet you can smile and kiss and moan
One of us will have to go, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Trip's the only one for me, Jolene
And so tonight when you're asleep
I'll go to him and make love sweet
Pon farr will make his choice for him, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm telling you, you cannot have my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
This Vulcan will do everything she can
Jolene…
Jolene…
WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
(Barak Brudo TTTO: Glory, Glory, Hallelujah)
He was just a rookie trooper, and he surely shook from fright
As he checked all his equipment, and made sure his pack was tight
He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar,
You ain't gonna jump no more.
CHORUS:
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
"Is everybody happy?", cried the sergeant, looking up,
Our Hero feebly answered "Yes," and then they stood him up,
He leaped right out into the night, his static line unhooked,
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock,
He felt the wind, he felt the clouds, he felt the awful drop,
He jerked his cord, the silk spilled out and wrapped around his legs.
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
The days he's lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind,
He thought about the girl back home, the one he'd left behind,
He thought about the medics and wondered what they'd find,
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
He plummeted to certain death, his heart was beating fast
He knew this fight with gravity will surly be his last
The ground was getting nearer when he saw he had a chance
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
He crashed down with a scream upon a living mountain wall
Squishing down with all the force his free fall weight did store
The hive queen didn't have a chance and all that's left was gore
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
And now the bugs are rising and we know not what to do
For though we killed first one of theirs, they killed a bunch here too
We need to stop them here and now before they squish us flat
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)
Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did. L, please upload your filks - I want the lyrics, they were awesome.
Be well and see you soon (I hope).
