Testo C.B. - Sonic Youth
Testo della canzone C.B. (Sonic Youth), tratta dall'album Walls Have Ears
I'm the MC
Um, so I'm supposed to be saying, um
Let's hear it for Sonic Youth, all the way from the States
Except uh, actually I'd like about two minutes of your attention
Shut your fucking face, I want just two minutes of your attention
And I have a very interesting little story to tell you
Two minutes, not very long, right?
And it's a-, it's a very instructive little story
Um, Sonic Youth is um, are a band, um (so my eyes thought)
Shh, shh, shh, um
They are about to put out a record in this country
Except uh, their record company, uh has decided to put a no-no on the record (hello)
Because of um, the cover which is offending uh, some people at Rough Trade
And now it's not
I mean it's not very offensive cover
It's uh, it's got a naked lady, a naked Puerto Rican lady
It's not very obscene, she's not doing anything weird
Um, it has nothing to do with
You know, in this day of AIDS and um, and Ethiopia, and all that shit
Uh, you will think that the major alternative record company would
Uh, have better things to do than worry about, uh
The shape of our bodies, you know
So uh, I thought I'd let you know, uh
So uh, next time you go and buy a record and you think, uh
You're really alternative and groovy and uh, everybody is int–
Is into the alternative charts
Remember, it's just like the other side, except it's a bit, a bit stranger, you know
I mean just remember, it's not, uh (hello)
There's n–
There's no fucking culture there, you know
There's, there's just as much censorship among people or age or you know
Than anyone else
We'd like to thank Claude for that delightful speech
