Pulp - Help The Aged (from This Is Hardcore)
Help the aged, one day they were just like you
Help the aged, cause one day you'll be older too
Voila résumée en deux phrases la pensée du texte de Pulp. Jarvis fait du social, cherche à rétablir le lien entre les générations, ou bien se met-il tout simplement dans la peau d'un vieux qui cherche à draguer une minette? Avec l'humour et le talent qui est le sien, on est bien obligés de se le demander. Une chose est sûre en tout cas, il mérite sa place dans les lyrics du jeudi.
Help the aged
One time they were just like you
Drinking, smoking cigs and sniffing glue
Help the aged
Don't just put them in a home
Can't have much fun when they're all on their own
Give a hand, if you can
Try and help them to unwind
Give them hope and give them comfort
Cos they're running out of time
In the meantime we try
Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
No big deal so give us all a feel
Funny how it all falls away
When did you first realise?
It's time you took an older lover baby
Teach you stuff although he's looking rough.
Funny how it all falls away
Help the aged
Cos one day you'll be older too
You might need someone who can pull you through
And if you look very hard
Behind those lines upon their face
You may see where you are headed
And it's such a lonely place
In the meantime we try
Try to forget that nothing lasts forever.
No big deal so give us all a feel
Funny how it all falls away
When did you first realise?
It's time you took an older lover baby
Teach you stuff although he's looking rough.
Funny how it all falls away
You can dye your hair
But it's the one thing you can't change
Can't run away from yourself
In the meantime we try
Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
No big deal so give us all a feel
Funny how it all falls away
When did you first realise?
It's time you took an older lover baby
Teach you stuff although he's looking rough
Funny how it all falls away
Funny how it all falls away
So help the aged
