Titolo: [LYR] Wicked Little Town - da: Hedwig and the Angry Inch

(allora allora, i testi potran sembrare sciemi, ma sciemi non lo sono: 
il film potrą sembrare sciemo, ma sciemo non lo č; poi io vorrei che la 
rappresentazione teatrale arrivasse qui in italia, ma non so se; poi č 
una di quelle canzoncine che ti senti sciemo perché sono tsuccherose 
perņ paice paice paice lo tsucchero eppoi be' guardatevi il film che ne 
vale la pena su su datemi ascolto)
(eppoi che č un dialogo con testi diversi sulla stessa base, tra hedwig 
e tommy gnosis che č.. be', appunto, il film il film)

Wicked Little Town [Hedwig Version]
-----------------------------------
You know, the sun is in your eyes
And hurricanes and rains 
and black and cloudy skies.
You're running up and down that hill.
You turn it on and off at will.
There's nothing here to thrill
or bring you down.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.
Oh Lady, luck has led you here
and they're so twisted up
they'll twist you up. I fear.
the pious, hateful and devout,
you're turning tricks til you're turned out,
the wind so cold it burns,
you're burning out and blowing round.
And if you've got no other choice
you know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.
The fates are vicious and they're cruel.
You learn too late you've used two wishes
like a fool
and then you're someone you are not,
and Junction City ain't the spot,
remember Mrs. Lot
and when she turned around.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
through the dark turns and noise
of this wicked little town.
-----------------------------------------
Wicked Little Town [Tommy Gnosis Version]
-----------------------------------------
Forgive me,
For I did not know.
'Cause I was just a boy
And you were so much more
Than any god could ever plan,
More than a woman or a man.
And now I understand how much I took from you:
That, when everything starts breaking down,
You take the pieces off the ground
And show this wicked town
something beautiful and new.
You think that Luck
Has left you there.
But maybe there's nothing
up in the sky but air.
And there's no mystical design,
No cosmic lover preassigned.
There's nothing you can find
that can not be found.
'Cause with all the changes
you've been through
It seems the stranger's always you.
Alone again in some new
Wicked little town.
So when you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town.
Oh it's a wicked, little town.
Goodbye, wicked  little town.

Io il film l'ho visto 2-3 volte, pensavo onestamente di essere stato
l'unico: che dire, kitsch quanto si vuole, ma non riuscivo a togliere gli
occhi dallo schermo, catturato dall'assoluta sinceritą del personaggio: le
musiche poi non mi sembravano cosģ male, ipotesi poi suffragata dall'aver
"pinzato" il buon Bob Mould tra gli autori della colonna sonora.
Da notare anche la presenza nella pellicola dei Girls Vs. Boys.
Certo č che se lo rappresentassero a teatro mi ci fionderei subito!
