Blue Orchid

Oggi torno a parlare di amenità ed ecco che vi propongo una canzone che conosco tipo da 2 giorni. Si tratta di Blue Orchid de The white Stripes dall’album Get Behind Me Satan.
Per chi non conoscesse il gruppo si tratta di una coppia, ex marito-moglie, che suonano solo un basso e una batteria. Le canzoni che ne risultano sono forse alla fine un po’ ripetitive, ma non per questo poco geniali. Ve li consiglio in ogni caso.


You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn’t you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue

Something better than nothing
Something better than nothing, it’s giving up
We all need to do something
Try to keep the truth from showing up

How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?

You’re given a flower
But I guess there’s just no pleasing you
Your lip tastes sour
But you think that it’s just me teasing you

You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn’t you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue

Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway

You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn’t you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue
