| Stereolab – Emperor Tomato Ketchup Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
translation: The comings and goings, labyrinth, well who's this I see? The exit it is there, I see it, we're not too, the exit I see it, it is there, we're not too (unfinished sentence, probably means we're not too far) Much too close from across, thick walls I can do it. To bring down the screens of deception, of deception. Holding to emptiness, to smoke the balls are burst, start everything over. What will we want to see? The curtain rise, silence is golden, I disagree. To not make an effort and yawn a lot, to be able to rise up and salute you. We are not pigeons, perhaps idiots, reality in another way. |

|
translation: what I wouldn't give to be once more sitting on a bench at the park with you the bottom of my heart was radiating and ther all the colors a revelation time stopped and then I saw your lips how desireable the impalpable became matter it huddled up against the void tenderness is finite the violent caress which awakens in my topsy-turvey being an enigma |
|

| Stereolab – Double Rocker Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
translation: Yes you are pure joy, The square of butter That makes life so delicious. (Open up your heart, open up my heart) Forgive me I've resisted so, Our reflection has scared me so. There your heart. You're the one that gives it its deep taste. (Open up my heart, open up your heart) Fear leaves me, I can surrender my self, I can feelsmell, and finally love you. There your mouth. The heat rises in the abdomen, You feed it and the fire awakens. I was of ice, within ice, Completely part of the mass. The fire crackles, it has found the bones, The flames dance, they give me back strength. Your increasing heat Made me melt, liberates me. |

| Stereolab – Diagonals Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
translation: Remember the vacation Vacation of the petty That seeks to resemble The Great bourgeoisie Through which difference Can they be distinguished? Their imprudent tortures Or passionate lives Lives of addiction Or very small people Return to the importance Of their dizzy lives A moment of vacation Nothing after forbidden Moment of independance And how beautiful life is! A moment of vacation To forget your worries To embrace the abundance That life has to Confer I want us to move on That we take some distance Divisions bore me And hurray for Harmonies! |
