oggi mi piace: Looking at tomorrow (the Farewell song) - The Beach Boys

da Surf's up (1971)

Ive been laying on my back
Like a freight train off a track
Trying to find a job to fit my trade
With the morning sun come round
Well Ill be covering plenty of ground
And I dont need nobody to pay my aid
Mmmm pay my aid
Now bess and me were feeling bad
And all the good jobs they were had
I had to take to sweeping up some floors
Well I dont mind that so much
Or the changing of my luck
But you know I could be doing so much more
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Bip bip bip bip bip bip bip bip bip boo
Well Ill be coming home tonight
And everything will be all right
And well be looking at tomorrow

Il surf era già finito da qualche anno, quando si erano inventati la canzone-paradiso perfetta, God only knows: non c'è il lavoro, se non fare le pulizie, ma quando tornerò a casa stasera, tutto andrà bene, e spererò nel domani...
Il ba ba ba ba più desolato e angosciante che si sia sentito nella musica pop.
