Son of Sam

El título de una de mis canciones favoritas, y la obra culmen del gran cantautor de los 90 que ha sido, y digo ha sido, porque se quitó la vida en el año 2003, Elliott Smith.









Pertenece a su disco Figure 8, publicado en el año 2000.





Something’s happening
don’t speak too soon
i told the boss off, made my move
got nowhere to go
son of sam
son of the shining path, the clouded mind
the couple killer each and every time
I’m not uncomfortable feeling weird
lonely leered, options disappeared
but i know what to do
son of sam, son of a doctor’s touch, a nurse’s love
acting under orders from above
King for a day
Son of sam
son of the shining path, the clouded mind
the couple killer running out of time
shiva opens her arms now
to make sure i don’t get too far
i may talk in my sleep tonight
‘cos i don’t know what i am
i’m a little like you
more like son of sam
