Paint a vulgar picture

“Paint a vulgar picture”

At the record company meeting
On their hands - a dead star
And oh, the plans they weave
And oh, the sickening greed

At the record company party
On their hands - a dead star
The sycophantic slags all say :
"I knew him first, and I knew him well"

Re-issue ! Re-package ! Re-package !
Re-evaluate the songs
Double-pack with a photograph
Extra Track (and a tacky badge)

A-list, playlist
"Please them , please them !"
"Please them !"
(sadly, THIS was your life)

But you could have said no
If you'd wanted to
You could have said no
If you'd wanted to

BPI, MTV, BBC
"Please them ! Please them !"
(sadly this was your life)

But you could have said no
If you'd wanted to
You could have walked away
...Couldn't you ?

I touched you at the soundcheck
You had no real way of knowing
In my heart I begged "Take me with you ...
I don't care where you're going..."

But to you I was faceless
I was fawning, I was boring
Just a child from those ugly new houses
Who could never begin to know

Who could never really know
Oh ...

Best of ! Most of !
Satiate the need
Slip them into different sleeves !
Buy both, and feel deceived

Climber - new entry, re-entry
World tour ! ("media whore")
"Please the Press in Belgium !"
(THIS was your life...)

And when it fails to recoup ?
Well, maybe :
You just haven't earned it yet, baby

I walked a pace behind you at the soundcheck
You're just the same as I am
What makes most people feel happy
Leads us headlong into harm

So, in my bedroom in those 'ugly new houses'
I danced my legs down to the knees
But me and my 'true love'
Will never meet again ...

At the record company meeting
On their hands - at last ! - a dead star !
But they can never taint you in my eyes
No, they can never touch you now

No, they cannot hurt you, my darling
They cannot touch you now
But me and my 'true love'
Will never meet again

traducciòn al español

“Pinta un cuadro vulgar”

en la reunión de la compañía de discos
en sus manos - una estrella muerta
Y oh, los planes que ellos entretejieron
Y oh, la enfermiza avaricia

En la fiesta de la compañía de discos
En sus manos - una estrella muerta
Las sicopáticas escorias todas decían:
“lo conocí primero, y lo conocí bien”

re-emisión! re-empaque! re-empaque!
Re-evalúen las canciones
Doble pack con una fotografía
Tema extra (y un pin chabacano)

Lista-A, lista de temas
“por favor ellos, por favor ellos ¡”
“por favor ellos ¡”
(tristemente, ESA era tu vida)

pero podrías haber dicho que no
si hubieses querido
podrías haber dicho que no
si hubieses querido

BPI, MTV, BBC
“por favor ellos ¡ por favor ellos!”
(tristemente esa era tu vida)

pero podrías haber dicho que no
si hubieses querido
podrías haberte ido caminando
….verdad?

te encontré en la prueba de sonido
no tenias ninguna manera de saberlo
en mi corazón rogué “Llevame contigo…
no me importa a donde vayas”

Pero para ti era anónimo
Era adulador, estaba aburrido
Solo un chico de esas feas casas nuevas
Que nunca podría empezar a saber

Quien podría nunca realmente saber…
Oh…

Lo mejor de ! Solo de !
Sacia la necesidad
Deslízalos en diferentes fundas!
Compra los dos, y sientete engañado

Escala - nueva entrada - re-entrada
Tour mundial ! (“prostituta de los medios”)
“por favor prensa de Bélgica !”
(ESA era tu vida)

y cuando caes para recuperarte
bueno, talvez:
todavía no lo has conseguido, niño

caminaba un paso detrás de ti en la prueba de sonido
eres exactamente igual que yo
lo que hace a la mayoría feliz
nos lleva precipitadamente al dolor

entonces, en mi habitación en “esas feas casas nuevas”
mis piernas bajando hacia las rodillas
pero yo y mi “verdadero amor”
nunca nos encontraremos

en la reunión de la compañía de discos
en sus manos - al fin ! -una estrella muerta !
pero ellos nunca podrán encontrarte en mis ojos
no, ellos no podrán tocarte ahora

no, ellos no pueden lastimarte, cariño
ellos no pueden tocarte ahora
pero yo y mi “verdadero amor”
nunca nos volveremos a encontrar

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way
I can import all my wordpress content into it? Any kind of help
would be really appreciated!

Can I simply just say what a comfort to discover somebody that truly knows what
they're discussing over the internet. You certainly understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More and more people must look at this and understand this side of the story. I can't believe you aren't more popular because you surely possess the gift.

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is needed to get setup? I'm
assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
